“Wake up?”
When Ling Xiao opened his eyes again, he saw his old grandfather.
Gray hair, thin body, withered face.
“Oh, why do you say you should take it softly! Come on, take medicine!”
The old man sighed and brought the bitter herbal soup.
From Grandpa’s mouth, Ling Xiao heard care and helplessness.
“Hey, it’s okay. It’s not the first time. Anyway, I’m not convinced.”
Ling Xiao said with a smile: “When I break through Wumai Second Layer, I will go to that Ling Chong to settle accounts!”
“You kid.”
The old man sighed. Although Ling Xiao was the child he picked up, he had always watched it as his grandson.
Seeing Ling Xiao’s injury, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Ling Xiao took the already dried herbal soup and drank it in one breath, with a smile on his face.
In fact, he refused to be soft, not only because of his stubborn temper, but also for another reason.
That is, since he practiced that incomplete exercise, his body has recovered very quickly.
I have been knocked out several times before, just like today, but I woke up in less than half an hour, and my body recovered seven or eighty-eight. After drinking some herbal soup, he was basically healed.
“The Ling family just sent someone over.”
When it comes to this, the old man seems to hesitate.
“Grandpa, just tell me if you have anything to say, what else can I not accept?”
The old man looked at Ling Xiao, and then he sighed: “They asked you to prepare to go through the formalities to leave Ling’s house.”
“Leave Ling’s house? Why?” Ling Xiao asked in surprise.
Entering the Ling family, he may learn better martial arts techniques, and then he can get ahead. If he leaves the Ling family, he really doesn’t know when his destiny will change.
“They said that there is still half a month before the year-end competition. This year-end competition, all the outer disciples who have not reached the second level of the martial arts are not eligible to participate, and will be driven out of the Ling family.”
At this point, the old man sighed again: “I heard that the Ling family was robbed of some resources by other families, and it can no longer support so many people. So I plan to streamline the disciples. The original rules have become more stringent. It’s harsh.”
“How could this be?”
Ling Xiao was also a bit stunned. In one month, he still had the confidence to break through, but in half a month, this was too anxious.
But the blow goes far beyond that.
The old man’s words haven’t been finished yet.
”Also, even if you break through to Wumai Second Layer within this half month, you will only temporarily retain the qualifications of Outer Sect Disciple. Before the age of fourteen, if you cannot reach Wumai Third Layer, Outer Sect disciple must All become servants of the Ling family, otherwise martial arts will be abolished and the Ling family will be driven out.”
“This is too much!”
Ling Xiao understands very well that he is thirteen years old this year, and will be fourteen after the Chinese New Year. How could he reach the triple level of Wu Mai.
If you become a servant, it means that your grandfather will no longer be qualified to live in Ling’s house, so how can he stay here at ease?
This is no longer a matter of face, it is a matter of survival.
What’s more, when he was selected by the Ling family, the beggar brothers who used to beg together were very envious.
If he leaves Ling’s house like this, what face does he have to return to the beggars?
“Yes, people are big families, so naturally they have their own rules, we are just outsiders after all.”
The old man suddenly smiled and said: “Forget it, it’s no good, old man, I will continue to go back to beg, it’s okay, not because I delayed your future.”
“No!”
Ling Xiao shook his head and said: “Grandpa, even if there is the slightest possibility, I will not give up. I will work harder than before and strive to reach the triple realm of martial arts before the age of fourteen! I must let it go. You have a good life.”
He gritted his teeth and clenched his hands tightly.
spell it out!
“My child, you have worked hard enough now. If you work harder, you might not break through your realm and your body will collapse.”
The old man sighed and said: “We still have to recognize the reality. It is almost impossible to break through to Wumai 2nd in half a month, so let’s plan early.”
Ling Xiao felt like a basin of cold water had been splashed on his head.
Yes, I haven’t been able to break through in a year, so why can I break through in half a month?
He keeps sinking his heart, and the thing he fears most is that no matter how hard he tries, it will be useless.
If it’s a month, it’s fine, so at least it’s 30-40% certain.
But for half a month, although he does not want to admit it, the fact is that unless there is a miracle, it will never be possible.
“Child, don’t be too sad, our father is safe, and grandpa doesn’t want you to be more powerful, as long as you are good, it is better than anything!”
The old man’s idea is very simple, he doesn’t want Ling Xiao to bear too heavy a burden of thought on his back.
”If you are worried about the jokes of the beggar brothers, you don’t have to. They are all suffering people and will not laugh at you. If you succeed, they will be happy and fail, and they will also accept you.”
Be a beggar of inaction again?
“No!”
Ling Xiao firmly shook his head and said: “Grandpa, have you forgotten how we were bullied on the street before?”
“Have you forgotten how the dog was beaten to death?”
“Have you forgotten that those wicked-hearted people actually used rat medicine meals for us?”
“That time, more than a hundred brothers died!”
“But we can’t resist, that person is protected by a warrior. We went to several people, and they all got broken legs!”
”Do you want us to continue to live such a life that is inferior to pigs and dogs? I am not convinced! I am no worse than anyone! I believe that the sky is infinite!”
Ling Xiao didn’t actually have much ambition. He learned martial arts and became a martial artist, just to live a better life and to avenge his dead brothers!
The old man is already in tears, because he knows ~IndoMTL.com~Ling Xiao is right.
All these are facts. If Ling Xiao cannot become a warrior, all tragedies will continue to happen.
“Oh, originally I didn’t plan to give you the second half of this book. The main reason is that you can’t control it. Now I can’t take care of that much. Old man, I was really convinced by you.”
The old man took out a book from his close-fitting clothes. No, it should be a broken book to be exact.
“Isn’t this another part of the previous fragment?” Ling Xiao asked.
“Yes, when Grandpa picked up the book, it was intact, but there is such a sentence in the book, please read it for yourself.”
The old man turned to the page connected to the first half.
”If there is no rock’s determination, strength is the motivation, don’t practice the content after this page, otherwise you will die!”
This is a line of words written in blood on the page of a book.
“Grandpa, don’t worry, I have determination and motivation, there will be no accidents!”
Ling Xiao excitedly took the second half of the book and went to his room, spliced the first half together, and then read it from beginning to end as a whole.
“What is this!”
In the exclamation, a golden glow flew out of the page of the book and shot directly into his body.
He was taken aback, but he didn’t notice any abnormalities in his body. When he relaxed his guard, suddenly a picture appeared in his mind.
That is a painting.
The content of the painting is very complicated, but on the whole it should be a landscape painting, with mountains, waters, and buildings, as if there is no end in sight.
is painted with clouds and mists, I can’t see all the content at all, I can only see a corner of it, it is a village with people and animals, and it looks very peaceful.
