Seance [crossing]

Chapter 117

It is said that in the Kuafu family, it is the dream of every man in the Kuafu country to be elected as a warrior when he is an adult, and then to be awarded the title of warrior Kuafu in the festival ceremony, and to embark on a day-to-day journey. The two are no exception.

Lichen and Lizhen were originally two hunters living in the northwest of Kuafu Kingdom. Although they were not from Jicheng, they were born with supernatural power and extraordinary skills, and they were determined to win the title of warrior.Although the two are not close relatives, they are like brothers and sisters.

I'm still ignorant, and before the end of the day, a neighbor suddenly moved in.On the day when the neighbor's house moved in, the two brothers leaned on the house to watch it. The wooden grid was so narrow that it was not as good as the two leaning on the platform together. So the two first scrambled, pushed and scrambled, and then they simply got down from the window sill and walked together. Pushing and leaning against the door, half of the head poked out from behind the door, looking out.I saw that the new neighbor's family had two carts and two heads in total. The head of the house was leading a horse in front, followed by another horse, and a girl was riding on it. His skin is slightly dark, as if he was active in the outdoors during the day, with a rosy glow, and it is difficult to hide his delicate features and dignified face.

At that time when the two brothers saw this scene, the younger brother, Li Zhen, was the first to say: "What a handsome girl!"

The elder brother Lichen glanced at Lizhen next to him, then turned his head to look at the girl again, without saying a word.

On the first day this neighbor moved in, the two brothers couldn't hold back any longer. They asked their parents for the neighbor's name, and learned that the family was well-off. Zhidu asked him to help build weapons.There is only one only daughter under her knees, named Li Ai, who is about the same age as the two brothers.Knowing this, the two brothers couldn't stop their thoughts that night, the younger brother Li Zhen asked Li Chen who was beside him in a low voice: "Brother, who do you think will marry Li Zhen in the future?"

Hearing the words, the older brother turned his face away, and instead of answering, he asked: "But you forgot the ambition we two set up in the past?"

The younger brother was enlightened after hearing this, and hurriedly said: "No, I dare not forget."

And after that, the two brothers became acquainted with the newly moved neighbor's family without much effort, and the two families had constant exchanges and a close relationship.This time, I realized that Li Ai was different from ordinary women since she was young, because she praised her father's family for being martial, and women are definitely not people who stay in the boudoir and stay at home. It is normal to show up in public.And this Li Ai is not only that, but also has a bold nature, like a man.He learned boxing and kicking from his father since he was a child, and often went out hunting, so his skin was tanned.Since becoming acquainted with the two brothers, he often followed them to hunt in the mountains, and even brought a bow-crossbow to fight in person, and his skill was not inferior to the man.

When the three of them got older and became more familiar with human affairs, the girl saw that the two brothers had always studied hard and had extraordinary ambitions, so she asked him what their plans were.After hearing this question, Li Zhen, the younger brother, took the lead in answering, saying with pride: "The two of us want to participate in the warrior competition in five years' time!"

On the other hand, the older brother was silent and looked thoughtful.

Hearing this, Li Ai clapped his hands and praised him with a happy smile, but suddenly remembered something, and then turned his joy to worry, and said hesitantly: "However, it is said that in every festival ceremony, it is said that the children of famous families in Jicheng are elected. , although the two of you have this ambition, you are also very diligent, I am afraid that you are not from a famous family, and compared with a famous family, it is difficult to get ahead..."

But this time it was the elder brother Li Chen who heard the words, stood up, put his hands behind his back to the two of them, and stood facing the place where the Golden Crow rose in the east. Your Majesty, only those who are strong are not in the same breath as the suzerains in the south who only value birth and blood. My Kuafu clan is only proud of the title of Kuafu, how can we be judged by bloodlines!"

As soon as this remark came out, the two audience members were all excited, and the younger brother immediately echoed: "That's right, the two of us will use our strength to compete with the people of Jicheng this time, to show who is the Kuafu Lord of titles!"

Li Ai heard this, and then said loudly: "Very good! I would like to high-five with you two as an alliance, and witness with my own eyes the day when you two realize this ambition!"

Afterwards, the three of them clapped their hands together and made an oath, and they agreed on this.

During this period, the three of them kept in close contact and became more and more affectionate. Li Chen, the elder brother, was introverted and taciturn, while Li Chen, the younger brother, was extroverted, cheerful, and clever, so he especially pleased Li Ai. From the two brothers, the girl chose Lizhen and made a secret promise.And between the two brothers, they already knew each other's thoughts well, the elder brother knew his own brother's thoughts when they first met the new Li Ai's family. When the three of them were together, they also remained invisible, keeping a distance from Li Ai, never getting involved between the two of them.But the two of them had to make room for Lichen, and they matched each other side by side, and their relationship only grew by leaps and bounds, and their relationship became closer day by day.

Not long after that, Li Chen and Li Zhen had a discussion, they only said that they had been working behind closed doors and practicing alone, I am afraid that they could also see things clearly and watch the sky from a well, not to mention that his brothers had no power and power, and they had no connections in Jicheng. If it weren't for their excellent skills, it would be difficult to get ahead, so the two wanted to go out to learn from teachers, and they had to be taught by capable people before they could learn the cost.It was agreed that the two of them went into the mountain with a bow, crossbow, sword and sword. Together, after ten days of tracking and ambush, they finally captured a Dangkang, which looked like a pig and had fangs in its mouth. The beast is a sign of a good harvest, and it only appears once every few decades, and no one does not like to see this beast.The two captured Dangkang, intending to use the beast as a bundle of apprentices.

When he was about to leave, Li Zhen made a special trip to ask Li Ai out, and the two came to the mountain together, and told Li Ai that he and Li Chen would go out to study as a teacher. , they will never return home.

Hearing this, Li Ai, who has always admired the ambitions of the two of them, fell silent. He didn't answer Li Zhen's words, but asked himself: "When you both have completed your studies and become teachers, which of the two of you There is always someone who needs to lose the election, so what should be done for the one who loses the election? But he still hasn't returned?"

When Li Zhen first heard this, he was very surprised, he was at a loss for words, and didn't know how to respond.However, he said that the two of his brothers have been in the same heart for many years, and they regarded the ambition of becoming a warrior as a common goal, but they did not realize that only one person can get the title of warrior in the end. At that time, one of his brothers will always lose the election. What should be the best time.It was the first time for Lizhen to ask this question, and it was the first time for him to spread this doubt in front of Lizhen, which made him hesitate for the first time in his heart that has always been going forward bravely.

Seeing that Lizhen didn't answer, Lizhen clarified his words: "Now that you're gone, what should we do with our affairs?"

Hearing this, I became even more worried. Becoming a warrior is the belief of the Kuafu people, and everyone hopes for it in their hearts. There is no doubt about it.But the relationship between him and Li Ai was born naturally, and he acted according to his heart, never thinking about future plans.Only after hearing Li Ai's words today, Fang gradually realized that there was a discrepancy between his ambition and his love.

Even so, that day Lizhen never came up with a result, no matter whether it was to give up his ambition for many years, or how to find a way out for himself and the person he liked, he didn't know.Returning home in this way, I saw that Li Chen was busy with traveling and apprenticeship.Seeing that Li Zhen had a sad look on his face, Li Chen said, "Tomorrow is the day of departure, why do you look listless and dejected?"

Li Zhen didn't know how to answer, so he also bowed his head and remained silent.

Li Chen didn't care, but told him once: "You know that tomorrow is the day when the two of us embark on a journey and realize our long-term ambitions. No matter what happens, you need to cheer up..." When Li Chen said this, he seemed to remember One thing, suddenly shut up.

However, when Lizhen heard the words, recalling the oath they had made in the past, she also felt that her current behavior was really not good for her elder brother, and she only thought in her heart that what her elder brother said was correct, this was the ambition of the two of them since they were young, how could they just let it go give up halfway?In a hurry, he cheered up, said to Li Chen, "I'll pack my luggage" and left, leaving behind a panicked back.

In the early morning of the next day, the two brothers were ready to go. Each of them straddled a horse and carried their luggage on it.He just walked out of the gate of his house, and saw a man standing in the middle of the avenue, wearing a short shirt and a strong suit, leading a horse. It was Li Ai.

When the two of them saw this scene, they were very surprised, and hurriedly asked Li Ai what it meant. The girl put one hand on her waist, and waved the whip with the other, and replied loudly: "I have made a plan, and I promise you Two people, if you want to watch the day when you two realize your ambitions, you must not break your promise, so this time I want to follow you two to go out and fight together, until the day I see you two achieve success!"

When the two brothers heard the words, the younger brothers were very happy immediately. They only said that although they were worried in every possible way yesterday and had no way to deal with it, who would have thought that today, the roads and turns will suddenly turn, and the willows will be dark and the flowers will be bright. It couldn't be better.

But the elder brother asked: "Your parents only have you as a daughter. You go out alone, and you are not allowed to perform filial piety in front of your parents. How can your parents agree?"

After hearing this, the girl said to her: "I have already discussed this matter with my parents. They are different from other families, and they will never let me be the daughter of that secluded house. Su Xi also learned hunting and self-defense skills from my father. If you want to go out, you have to get permission from your parents."

After saying that, knowing the truth, the three of them went on the road together without mentioning it.Starting from the northwest of Kuafu Kingdom, heading southeast, after half a month, the three of them arrived in Jicheng. The first thing they did after entering the city was to worship the statue of Kuafu in front of the palace. The image of faith, everyone is solemn and full of emotion, and then burn incense and pray, praying for the wish to come true.Afterwards, the three of them found the gilded scattered weapons shop as planned, and wanted to learn from the shopkeeper named Huan Lihuang.This Lihuang is the No. [-] blacksmith in Jicheng, who was also the personal bodyguard of the former lord. Now that he is old, he just left the palace and opened a weapon shop in Jicheng.Because of his reputation, there was an endless stream of apprentices, but most of them were turned away.

This time the three of them came to visit their teachers, and they tied Toukou and Dangkang outside the door. After hearing the news, it was Li Huang's only disciple, Li Jue, who came to meet the three of them. Wei Wei sneered and said, "Warriors have always been elected by the children of the famous families in Jicheng. I have never heard of such a case that the common people in the countryside were elected. Don't be wishful thinking. Even if you come to the master, you can't do it." He was coldly stared at for no reason."

After the two brothers heard this, they immediately opened their mouths to retort: ​​"The ancestors of the country, all the people I praise my father and children are the people of the ancestors. How can we be separated by different regions?"

When Na Liyu heard the words, he sneered: "Although the ancestor's precepts are unlimited, from ancient times to the present, is there any example that people other than the children of Jicheng have obtained the staff of Kuafu?"

After hearing this, the two brothers were at a loss for words, and looked at each other head-on, wanting to find a special case, they suddenly heard a voice from behind, not showing any weakness, it was Li Ai who said: "Nothing yesterday doesn't mean it won't work today. Both inside and outside the city boast father and son, everyone is equal, which one can be arbitrary? But it all depends on one's own ability..."

As soon as this remark came out, Li Liu followed the prestige and saw a woman leaning on the side of the horse, fiddled with a whip in her hand, her skin was slightly dark, but her beautiful features could not be concealed.What he said just now was like big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate, which made him even more eloquent.Hearing that this woman said "personal ability", Li Yu laughed dumbly, and was about to say "I'll see what you have", when suddenly another voice came from the side, saying: " Where does this Dangkang come from?"

Everyone heard the sound and turned their heads to look, only to see...
