The Master of Cultivation rises up

He was awake, but when he stopped, Li Chao's footsteps were weak and he couldn't even stand firmly.

"Father, what is this?" What kind of moth is my stupid father doing? He didn't let him sleep early in the morning. It is against the law to abuse underage children!

"Practice martial arts." The concise and clear words hit the nail on the head.Li Chao has been busy studying etiquette for the past few days, but he completely forgot about practicing martial arts.Since the moment his father taught him how to practice martial arts, the two of them never got up after the sun rose.Li Chao didn't want to fight like this at first. With the system in hand, he basically didn't need to practice martial arts. It wasn't until he found out that he could gain experience by practicing the basic moves his father taught him.

After warming up, Li Chao practiced the basic moves of the Li family's spear skills one by one. The experience value under the interface is close to full, and he is about to upgrade.At this time, Li Daoan walked over boldly with a spear on his shoulder.

"Chao'er, my father will teach you today the movement method passed down by our Li family ancestors——Walking the Dragon Step, you have to watch it!"

Li Daoan took two steps back, took a breath of true energy, drew a line with a fiery red spear, and shot out every inch of his body, like a dragon out of water, as fast as lightning, and sound like thunder.Youlong footwork wins with fast sprinting and long-distance. The height is no more than about half a person. It can exert its greatest advantage on flat ground.The Li family's iron cavalry is so powerful that everyone in the four directions is afraid of it, and it has a lot to do with this amazing and brilliant walking dragon footwork.

Li Daoan was dressed in silver armor, shining brightly against the rising sun, like dragon scales.His steps are skillful, his movements are mighty and domineering, and he is full of unstoppable arrogance, which makes Li Chao's blood boil.There is a stance in Youlong's footwork approaching the ground. Li Daoan pointed his spear at the ground, and with a thrust of his spear, a gray earth wall suddenly rose up. He stepped on the wall, jumped into the air at the end of the earth wall, bent down, and held the gun in his backhand , stabbing down obliquely in the posture of thunder, as fast as a tiger.

When he landed, Li Daoan held the gun in his right hand, propped his left leg on the ground, and slid a long distance on the ground, with dust around his feet.When he looked back, he had already left Li Chao far behind.

"Chao'er, can you see clearly?"

Li Chao nodded, playing with the small wooden spear in his hand, suddenly exerted force on his right foot, his body rose into the air, and then fell back to the ground heavily with a "click", and his face was ashamed.

Li Daoan rushed to his side with a hopeless expression on his face, he was obviously worried but instead of helping him, he reprimanded him instead. "Stick up! Boost up! How many times have I said that when you make a move, you must spread your true energy all over your body, why can't you remember!" He picked up the small wooden gun and stuffed it into Li Chao's hand, "Again!"

If Li Chao was a five-year-old milk baby, he would definitely cry because of his father's cruelty, but Li Chao was not, so he got up by himself, patted off the dirt on his body, took the small wooden gun from Li Daoan, and prepared to fight again. try it once.This is also where Li Daoan loves his youngest son the most. In front of people, he is always smiling and acting stupid, but no matter how wronged he is, he will hide in his heart silently, never complaining, never crying, Acting like an adult, the mature way of doing things only makes people feel distressed.

Li Chaoyun raised his true energy, and his meridians circulated. After performing it again, he sprinted out.

"Ding, the light work system is on, and the energy value system is on."

The long-awaited Qinggong system was finally activated. Before Li Chao could be happy, he felt his body warm up, and the system prompts came one after another.

"Ding, congratulations on the player's upgrade. The player's current level is Immortal [-]nd Level. Due to the level limit, the effects of all the player's skills are reduced to [-]/[-] of the original effect."

"Ding, the player's level meets the requirements, the mount system is turned on, and the pet system is turned on. After the player captures the war mount, the riding combat system can be activated, and after the player captures the war pet, the pet combat system can be activated."

In Base [-], the player must reach level [-] to learn riding skills. From this point of view, the system level corresponding to Immortal Level [-] should be level [-].Ji San's current level is capped at level ninety, which means that he can reach the ninth level of immortality at the highest.It seems that the level of a cultivator is also divided into nine levels, that is to say, the level of Li Chao can be equated with the level of a cultivator?Li Chao's uncertain guess.

Li Chao was overwhelmed by the ecstasy brought by the system prompt, and didn't notice that he used Qinggong to jump over the low wall of the school field and flew to the other side.Li Daoan watched his son leave without looking back. Realizing the situation behind the wall, his face changed slightly, and he quickly chased after him with his walking steps.

Li Chao closed the system interface in satisfaction, and as soon as he raised his head, he was startled by the shocking roar of a tiger's body, and saw a group of dark eyes staring fiercely at him, like a hungry tiger rushing for food.His heart trembled, his body was unstable, and with a "baji", he fell face down on the ground.

Li Zhonghun, the iron cavalry commander who was leading the elite cavalry drills of the Li family, saw his famous general flying into the school field like the wind, picking up the unidentified objects that fell on the ground, and leaving like the wind. But in the blink of an eye, the three thousand cavalry were collectively dumbfounded.After the death-like silence, loud laughter echoed in the sky above the school grounds!

"Hahaha! Hahaha!"

Li Chao has no face to see anyone anymore.

It's one thing to be ashamed, another thing to be ashamed at home, and another thing to be ashamed in front of three thousand cavalry... Li Chao felt that it would be better to die immediately.

Li Daoan also felt ashamed, his fame was lost by this stupid son.It's not good where you fly, but you want to fly to a place with a lot of people, that's fine, but you still fall into the mud!Li Daoan deeply felt that this son must have come to collect debts.Visually, the money I owed him in my previous life is countless!

Li Daoan felt that his face could be saved again.

After breakfast, Li Daoan led the well-dressed Li Chao to show off in the barracks. Of course, this move did not wash away Li Chao's stupid and cute image. On the contrary, it allowed other soldiers who had only heard of Li Chao's deeds to see the style of the third son of the Li family. (chun) mining (yang).In less than a quarter of an hour, Li Chao was surrounded by soldiers carrying rice bowls, ignoring Li Daoan's cold eyes, and commenting on Li Chao while eating rice.

The Chinese people in the barracks basically didn't have any entertainment except for martial arts training. Li Chao's troubles could make the boring soldiers talk for half a month.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"I've heard about it a long time ago, and it has already been spread in the military camp. The young master is now famous."

blah blah, blah blah.

It is said that after serving in the army for three years, a sow is better than Diaochan.By the same token, the boring military camp life, in addition to being a breeding ground for brothers and brothers to attack, is also a sinful soil for gossip and gossip.When it comes to gossip, the five big and three rough men are no less inferior than the three aunts and six wives.What's more, the owner of this gossip is none other than the young master of their family, the future head of the family, Sir.Don't bully and bully at this time, and when he grows up, there will be no chance.

Thus, Li Daoan's attempt to save face failed completely, and the third son of the Li family became famous.

Where does life not meet

All the Li family members are funny, including him!

After witnessing the gossip-like ability of the Li family's soldiers, Li Chao came to such a conclusion.The image of the mysterious, majestic, and ruthless iron-blooded army in Li Chao's mind is gone. They are a group of flesh and blood, crying and laughing. They eat meat, drink heavily, cry loudly, and look up to the sky Long laugh.They would like to abide by the first rule of Li's ancestral precept, "Don't move outside things, stick to your heart".Be a person and do things without being disturbed by external objects, and be the most authentic self.

Li Chao prefers such a mild-mannered person.Compared with the cold and ruthless killing machines, it is easier for this group of simple elders to gain approval.Although they seem careless and unreliable, Li Chao, who has experienced the battle outside the city five years ago, knows that such domineering momentum and well-trained movements are not something a group of real and funny people can do. matter.

As early as after Li Chao gave birth to the wolf king seal, he was destined to be the head of the Li family of this generation, and Li Daoan also trained him in the same way as the head of the family.Although Li Xiao is the eldest son, first of all, he does not have the seal of the wolf king, and second, everyone knows his character clearly. It is easy to be the right-hand man, but difficult to be the head of the house.Gongsun Qingxi said inwardly that it was a pity, but she was originally a cultivator with an open-minded disposition and obeyed the heavens. As long as Li Xiao lived a safe life, it didn't matter whether she was the head of the family or not.

As the prospective Patriarch, Li Xiao decided to take advantage of his youth to tease the group of funny people who watched his jokes more, otherwise, when he gets older or becomes the Patriarch, he must never do such self-defeating things again. It is not unreasonable Lost a lot of fun.The ideas of the little teasers coincided with the ideas of a group of big teasers, so during this period of time, Li Chao could often be seen in the barracks.Or dragging a spear heavier than him and swinging it vigorously, sweating profusely; or stepping lightly on his feet and passing over the soldiers' heads during training, raising dust in the sky; or riding a horse heavier than him. The little pony stands side by side with the majestic cavalry; or sneakily designs something in a soldier's tent.

They were all harmless little jokes, and Li Zhonghun, the cavalry commander in charge of training, just turned a blind eye and let them mess around.However, the brains of the teasers are unimaginable for normal people. When it comes to teasing the old man with facial paralysis, Li Zhonghun, the two groups of people are unexpectedly colluding, and often make Li Zhonghun dumbfounded.

After Li Daoan found out, in a rage, all training doubled, regardless of each other, and Li Chao also trained with the soldiers.The suffering brothers and sisters fell together again, and their feelings heated up rapidly.

The carefree days disappeared with the arrival of an imperial decree. Before the spring examination, the father-in-law who announced the decree brought a mighty group of people to Li's mansion, and asked Li Jingan and Li Daoan to receive the decree together by name.It turned out that in addition to letting Li Chao go to the Imperial Academy to study, Emperor Jingwu also bestowed a marriage on Li's family.

Princess Duanmuqing, the daughter of the regent, is sixteen years old. She is well-educated and well-educated, and she is as beautiful as a flower. Li's children are among the dragons and phoenixes. Li Huaiyang, the son of Li Jing'an, is even a young talent. Qin and Jin are so good.Although there are many dissatisfaction with the arranged marriage, in Li Chao's view, this marriage will not do any harm to the Li family.After all, his thoughts were too naive, and he didn't understand the twists and turns in the royal family, but Li Jing'an and his brothers all changed their expressions.

Your Majesty, this is something to do!

Although there was helplessness in their hearts, the two brothers did not dare to resist the order. As usual, they gave some money to the father-in-law who announced the order, and then sent it to the door in a good voice.

Although Li Chao didn't understand why, the faces of his uncle and father could see clearly, what happened?However, such a complicated matter should not be known to him as a child, at least his uncle and father thought so.

"Ah Chao, you will go to the Imperial Academy to study in two days, and my father hasn't bought a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for you yet. It's a good day, why don't you ask the servants to accompany you, go outside and buy some nice things. "

"Nanting! Nanting!" Li's father called Li Chao's personal servant, and the eleven or twelve-year-old boy ran in from outside in a panic, sweating profusely.Li Daoan handed over the money to him, and whispered: "Look at the young master, don't make any mistakes. Remember, don't come back until dark."

Li Chao did not give up and was still struggling: "Father, today's training has not been completed yet..."

"Go ahead, let's take a break today, and make up for it another day. Chao'er is obedient, it's strange, uncle and your father have something to do."

Li Jing'an also offered to help, Li Chao had no choice but to leave with Nanting.

Nan Ting saw that Li Chao was unhappy, and racked his brains to amuse Li Chao along the way, but he was only a 13-year-old kid, and he could only talk about those old jokes, and after listening to them, Li Chao was very embarrassed, Nan Ting put down a small face.

Li Chao didn't spend too much time worrying about it. Even if something happened, it was not his turn to worry about it as a child. There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, and we will talk about the future.

After figuring it out, Li Chao no longer struggled. Looking at the sun, it was already noon. He was busy thinking about things just now, but he didn't notice that his stomach was already growling. Li Chao decided to go shopping after lunch.

"Nanting, let's go to Zuixianglou."

"Yes, young master." Nan Ting led the way and walked towards the largest restaurant in Dongdu.

Before the two masters and servants reached the Zuixiang Building, they saw a group of people surrounded by the entrance of the restaurant from a distance, three floors inside and three floors outside, almost blocking their mouths, Li Chaoda was curious, and brought Nanting forward Onlookers.

There were so many people, the little Li Chao couldn't see what was happening in the crowd at all, Nan Ting's eyes lit up, he was worried that he couldn't make the young master happy, seeing the young master was so interested, he immediately volunteered to go in and investigate.Li Chao nodded. He didn't expect Nan Ting to use his flexible body to sneak through the crowd and disappeared from Li Chao's field of vision.

Suddenly, the top of Li Chao's head suddenly sank, and one hand rested on it, stroking his hair.Li Chao was displeased, turned around and was about to glare at the other party, but found that the other party was tall, and he had to raise his head to see the other party clearly.Li Chao kept his face blank, and saw the face of the visitor clearly, hey, he was still an acquaintance.

This person is none other than A Jin who met once in the palace.

The boy was wearing a lavender gown and was looking at him with a smile.

"Ajin?"

"It's me. What is Chao'er doing here?" A Jin bent down and tried to look at Li Chao.The corners of his eyes were slightly bent, as if he had encountered something extremely happy.Li Chao's mood could not help but be infected by the joyful breath of the young man, and he smiled unconsciously.

"It's nothing, just take a look."

At this time, Nan Ting squeezed out from the crowd, pulling his face bitterly, his eyes were red, as if he had just cried, the tears were wiped off by his sleeves indiscriminately, and the traces could still be seen clearly.

Seeing this, Li Chao couldn't help being surprised, he was fine when he went in, but he started crying when he came out. "What's the matter, Nanting? Why are you crying?"

"Yeah, no." Nan Ting choked up his voice, but held back, feeling extremely wronged. "Master, that person inside is so pitiful, shall we help him? I have money, so I can give it all to him, shall we help him?"

Li Chao still didn't know what happened inside, seeing Nanting like this, he knew that there must be nothing good inside.But Nan Ting couldn't understand what he said, and he couldn't squeeze in, so he stood there rather embarrassed.

"Chao'er wants to go in?" Ah Jin who was standing aside saw this and asked intimately.

Li Chao's eyes lit up: "Do you have a solution?"

Ah Jin smiled and said nothing, just staring at him with her sparkling eyes without blinking.

Li Chao knew what he wanted in an instant, but he didn't want Nan Ting to be sad, so he squeezed out a few words unwillingly. "Help me, brother Ajin."

Ah Jin's eyes were almost narrowed into a line.I don't know how he did it, but Li Chao felt a gust of breeze blowing on his face, and the crowd seemed to be pushed by someone, leaving a gap just enough for the three of them to walk through.Li Chao was quite surprised by Ah Jin's move, and before he could open his mouth, Nan Ting had already run in first, and the other two had to follow.

Kneeling in the circle surrounded by the crowd was a thin young man, his clothes were torn and torn, barely able to cover his body.The only conspicuous thing about him was that he was dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, and it was obvious from the shrugging of his shoulders that he was crying.In front of him was a piece of white cloth, on which were written the four big words "sold one's body to bury one's father", which was shocking.Li Chao skimmed through the content and learned that the boy lost his mother when he was young, and his father brought him up through hardships. Before he could enjoy the blessings, he contracted a serious illness and passed away within two years.The young man has no relatives in his family, and he has already spent all his savings on treating his father, but now he can't spend a penny to buy his father's funeral.The boy had no choice but to sell himself into slavery.

Peace, level consecration period.

Li Chao was taken aback, feeling that this young man is still a cultivator, but judging from the situation of this young man, he probably doesn't know that he is a cultivator.Li Chao couldn't help but secretly thought it was a pity.

Nan Ting looked at Li Chao with tears in his eyes, and Li Chao knew that he was thinking of his own life experience.He sighed softly and asked, "How much silver do we have?"

Seeing that there was a door, Nan Ting hurriedly took out all the money Li's father gave him and handed it to Li Chao. "Young master, we have more than a dozen taels of silver, which is almost enough to buy a funeral. Do you think?"

As soon as the heavy purse was in his hands, Li Chao felt that he was also a spender. He walked up to the boy and asked, "What's your name?"

Ping An has been here for two days, and no one has cared about him. His father's body was placed in the ruined temple, and there was a faint tendency to rot. It's a child, and I can't help but feel a little disappointed.Even so, Christmas Eve is not a person who does not know good and bad. The child has a good face and is well dressed. He must be a child of a wealthy family.Hearing the other party's question, he answered truthfully: "My name is Ping'an, from Pingdingshan, a suburb of the eastern capital."

The child was asking again: "Have you ever read a book?"

"I have read it for two years." Ping An still answered honestly.

"Oh, it's a pity." The child shook his head and handed the money bag to him. "You ask for 1000 taels to buy out your future future. According to me, you are still losing money. Besides, although this is the Eastern Capital, no family will spend 1000 taels to buy a slave. You read I can understand the loftiness of a literati in his heart, but don’t forget, after all, nobility can’t be eaten as food.”

Why doesn't Ping An know these truths, but he is not reconciled, nor does he want to sell his future cheaply.Hearing the child's words, he straightened his back and said nothing.

"Oh, why bother. Although the money in my hand is not much, it is enough for you to help your father arrange a decent funeral. I don't dare to ask for your future, and I can't afford it. Treat this money as if I lent you Yes, after you get rich in the future, you can pay me back. There is no need to make any IOUs, I am the third son of the Duke Protector's Mansion, you can find me there."

After Li Chao said this, he took Nanting away, and A Jin who was beside him looked at Li Chao's back thoughtfully, and left together.After they left, the crowd exploded.Everyone talked about it, and all praised Mr. Li San for his righteousness and reason. There are so many of them, all of them were scared by 1000 taels, and none of them thought of such a solution. They couldn't help but feel ashamed.

Holding the money bag in his hand, Ping An slammed his head in the direction where Li Chao was leaving. He swore that he would repay the kindness he received today!Duke Protector's Mansion, Mr. Li San, he remembered!

When they were young, they didn't know that when the day of repayment came, the situation of the two of them had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Great Dream Floating Life Lu Jiuxian

It wasn't until Li Chao smelled the smell of food wafting from the Zuixiang Building that he realized that he had spent all his money, and the perpetrator was drooling at the plaque of the Zuixiang Building.Li Chao kicked him angrily: "Next month's salary will be waived."

"what?"

Li Chao currently has two choices, one is to go a little further and go to his own restaurant for a free meal, or the other is to go back the same way and go home for dinner.After roughly calculating the distance, Li Chao felt that neither of these options was a good idea.What's more, the smell of the food wafted into Li Chao's nose, and he couldn't move anymore.

In fact, he has a third option.Ah Jin looks like a pretty good cash machine, he already calls him Brother Ah Jin, so it's not too much to ask him to treat him to a meal.As expected, Ah Jin was very kind, and before Li Chao could speak, he proposed the idea of ​​inviting Li Chao's master and servant to dinner, and they readily agreed.

Zuixianglou is indeed the largest restaurant in the Eastern Capital. Li Chao has a taste of the food here, and he knows where he is better than his own restaurant.Li Chao, who is used to delicacies from the mountains and seas of his previous life, did not feel how delicious the food here was, but the chef put so much thought into cooking the dishes. .Before the meal, a pot of clear tea is served, and after the meal, the younger brother delivers scented tea that quenches the tiredness and thirst at the right time. make it bigger.This thoughtful thought is not much better than that of the previous life, which made Li Chao even want to meet the boss of Zuixianglou.

Of course, Li Chao was just thinking about it.He is now more concerned about who the slovenly man who has been staring at him since he walked in the door and sees him still hasn't turned his head to drink after eating.

A Jin could see Li Chao's absent-minded expression. He followed Li Chao's gaze and turned his head. When he saw the man clearly, he was taken aback, muttering why he appeared here, and walked towards the man.

Let me tell you, he is not going to find a man to single out!He was a burly man, and drinking was smoother than drinking cold water. There were more than a dozen empty wine jars on the table, and there was no trace of drunkenness on the man, which showed that this man was extraordinary.If Ah Jin matches him, there will be no good fruit to eat.Alas, it's all his fault, why didn't he realize that Ah Jin is actually a bad tempered person!

Fearing that something might happen to Ah Jin, Li Chao hurriedly followed, but before he got there, the scene in front of him surprised him.

Ah Jin respectfully saluted the burly man, and called him "Master".

Li Chao has already made preparations for a [-]-round battle. If it really doesn’t work, he can lead people to escape with the help of lightness kung fu. The escape ability of Youlongbu is quite strong. Most people can’t catch up with him. They will be safe when they return to the Duke Protector’s Mansion. Oh, wait, master?

Is this slovenly man with a wide open chest A Jin's master?It must be the wrong way for him to get up today, otherwise the master and apprentice are too different.One is a handsome and handsome young man, and the other is... er, a big man who can't bear to look straight at his feet. They are actually masters and apprentices?

Li Chao's three views have been refreshed again.

But this man is Ah Jin's master, although Li Chao was annoyed at him for being unreasonable, he didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of him, just look at it, anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat, it's no big deal.Li Chao silently shifted his gaze to the system panel, only to get the name Lu Jiuxian.Well, he really can't afford to mess with this person.

"A Jin, this is your little daughter-in-law? Well, she looks so cute." Lu Jiuxian spoke a clear male voice that didn't match his appearance, and dipped his chopsticks in the wine with great interest, intending to tease this little girl. The doll was slapped off by Li Chao's very disrespectful slap.Who knows if you've ever used that chopstick, picking up the saliva of a big man's feet, just thinking about it will give you goosebumps.

Lu Jiuxian was not annoyed either, he threw the chopsticks on the table casually, and burst out laughing. "You baby, it's so interesting, hahaha, Ah Jin, you have to be careful about your baby, don't let someone snatch it away."

"Master, Chao'er is a boy." Ah Jin hit the nail on the head, puncturing Lu Jiuxian's wild fantasy.

"what?"

Lu Jiuxian's eyes swept Li Chao back and forth bravely, and finally had to admit Li Chao's identity as a boy.Although this little baby looks indistinguishable from male and female, with a boy's heroism in his eyes, he is drinking too much, so he is mistaken.I thought my apprentice was really enlightened, alas.

However, Lu Jiuxian will not give in easily in front of his apprentices, this is related to his dignity as a master, after recognizing Li Chao's identity as a boy, he still keeps his mouth shut. "What's wrong with the boy, who said that the boy can't be a daughter-in-law. As long as you like it, it's not a problem to pick up a monster!"

Li Chao hated Lu Jiuxian so much.It's fine to mistake him for a girl, but after knowing his boy's identity, you still want him to be someone else's daughter-in-law. Uncle can't bear it, uncle can bear it, and aunt can't bear it either!

"Then, if Brother Ajin likes it, wouldn't the uncle also be Brother Ajin's daughter-in-law?" Li Chao tilted his head and looked at Lu Jiuxian who had one leg on the chair with a puzzled expression.

With a "click", the wine glass in Lu Jiuxian's hand shattered.He didn't expect that the seemingly weak little guy was also a sharp-tongued master.And that stupid apprentice, who actually helped others to laugh at you, master, and me, don't think I didn't see the smile on your lips, hum, Mr. Laozi has a lot of people, so I don't care about you little kids.

The wine glass was broken, Lu Jiuxian didn't bother to ask the younger brother to replace it with a new one, and drank directly at the wine jar. In the end, the wine jar was thrown heavily on the table, he wiped his mouth, and coaxed Li Chao like a strange sorghum.

"Come on, little guy, tell the master, what's your name?"

Who is your apprentice, don't take advantage of it. "I don't change my name when I'm going, and I don't change my surname when I sit down. My name is Li Chao."

"Surnamed Li?" Lu Jiuxian pondered for a while, then he knew the origin of Li Chao. "Is your father Li Jingan or Li Daoan?"

Now it was Li Chao's turn to be surprised. "You know my father and my uncle, why haven't you heard them mention it?"

"In this way, you are Li Daoan's son. Boy, master, I still have things to do today, so let's go ahead, believe me, we will meet again soon!" Lu Jiuxian laughed three times, and jumped from the window of the restaurant And out, at the end, Yaoyao said: "Pay the money for the wine for me."

"Your master is very special." Li Chao thought for a while and found out such an adjective.Ah Jin was expressionless, and was no stranger to Lu Jiuxian's behavior. "You don't need to pay attention to him, he's just crazy. But he's right about one thing, we'll meet again soon."

"What?" Li Chao didn't hear clearly and asked.

"It's nothing. Speaking of which, what is Chao'er going to do in the afternoon?" Ajin asked after paying for the drinks and meals.

"Well, I originally planned to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstones, but unfortunately I have given away all the money, so I have to go home first." Li Chao had a bitter face, and kicked Nanting again.It's all his fault, anyway, he should leave a few pennies as pocket money.

"Let's go, I'll take you to buy it."

"Huh?" Li Chao blinked.

"It's just a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, I can still afford it." A Jin smiled, and touched Li Chao's head with her paw again.

"I've said it all, don't touch my head all the time, I won't grow taller." Li Chao pouted, protesting against Ah Jin's persistent behavior.Height has always been a flaw in his previous life. In this life, he has worked hard and eaten a balanced diet in order to be taller than [-]. Mermaid lines, male dog waists, and long legs have always been Li Chao's dream. behavior was destroyed.

Ah Jin followed the good example, and stopped touching his head. It was supposed to pinch his bun face, and then unexpectedly found that the hand felt better. As a result, many years later, whenever the two met, Ah Jin's wolf claws would be against Li Chao's. The little face was ravaged for a while.

After buying what Li Chao wanted from Mobaozhai, the three of them walked around the street for a long time. It was not until it was getting late that Li Chao reluctantly said goodbye to Ah Jin under the urging of Nanting.Isn't it just to take some pens, inks, papers and inkstones? Why did he become paralyzed after such a short while? Li Chao glared at Nanting. He was also a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, so the gap should not be too obvious.

Li Chao had the idea of ​​hating iron but not steel.

"Then, brother Ajin, let's go." Li Chao waved his hand to bid farewell to Ajin.

"See you next time." Ah Jin smiled and said goodbye to Li Chao's master and servant. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the young man's slender body, coating it with a layer of golden red light. Turn around and leave.

Just two steps away, Li Chao suddenly remembered that he hadn't thanked Ah Jin yet, so he turned his head hastily, and stopped speaking halfway.

"Brother Ajin, thank you..."

The breeze gradually passed, and the place where the boy was standing was empty, and there was no figure of A Jin.Nan Ting had a ghostly expression on his face, and his hands kept shaking.Li Chao didn't think too much, he couldn't help muttering: "It's too fast."

After all, Li Chao didn't know the content of the conversation between his uncle and his father. When he got home, his uncle had already left, and his father went to the barracks, saying that he had some important business to do, and he would stay in the barracks for the next few days.

There are only two mothers left in the family, and the three of them eat in the small side hall, which is deserted.This was the first time in his life that Li Chao felt lonely.Seeing the abnormality of his father and uncle, Li Chao always felt that something big was about to happen.

Liu Qianran was the first to notice her son's absent-minded expression, and picked a piece of his favorite ribs for him, and put it in front of Li Chao. "What's the matter, Chao'er, why are you unhappy?"

Gongsun Qingxi also watched him with worried expression.

Li Chao was taken aback, did he act so obviously?However, he didn't want his mother to worry yet, so he squeezed out a smile and lowered his head to grab the rice. "It's okay, mother, I'm going to the Imperial Academy soon, and I'm a little worried." After that, he stood up, picked up vegetables for Liu Qianran, and then helped Gongsun Qingxi to serve the meal, putting away his worried expressions. Talking and laughing after dinner.

After dinner, Li Chao went to bed early, the moonlight shone faintly into the room, the window lattice reflected on the ground, and cast square shadows.The silent night gave Li Chao room to think. He closed his eyes, opened them again, and a row of floating virtual windows appeared in front of him.The dense graphic texts occupy Li Chao's entire sight.

Li Chao browsed a little bit, there are quite a lot of things that have been activated recently, and he hasn't had time to sort them out, they have been hanging there.Taking advantage of not having to practice martial arts these few days, he had to sort out his own ideas.

Qinggong system, cavalry system, reputation system... Wait, when did the reputation system come out?

Li Chao clicked on the prestige system interface, and was surprised to find that there were quite a lot of prestige unlocked.The prestige of Wanshi Xianchao, Tianxiang Tower, and Hongchen lineage are all green friendly, the prestige of Bibotian, Beast King Zhuang, and Lingtian Realm are yellow neutral, and the prestige of Li's cavalry has reached closeness, which is not in vain. Towards this period of hard work.And a strange thing is that there is actually an item in the reputation panel that Li Chao doesn't know about, forgetting to return to the valley, and being friendly.

When did he come into contact with people from Wanggui Valley?Li Chao thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he simply left it there and stopped thinking about it.

In Base [-], if the prestige reaches a certain level, you can exchange for equipment, pendants, recipes, etc., and you can also accept some special tasks, but I don’t know what prestige can do in this world.However, as long as the reputation can be maintained above friendly, it will be beneficial to Li Chao.

Li Chao clicked on the character panel again. Due to the low level, the Dingguo set has been withdrawn from the inventory, and the weapon is also. He is now only wearing a white suit with pitiful attributes. Holding this small wooden gun is much better than the one who was born in Daoxiang Village. The character is miserable, Li Chao thought depressingly.

Thinking about it, Li Chao slowly fell asleep.

Li Chao had a nightmare.

Everything in the dream is white, white snow, white people, and white mourning halls.Someone was crying in his ear, his heart was broken, he couldn't make a sound, he took steps, his legs were heavy like lead.Who, who died?Li Chao's whole body was full of fear, he yelled to ask the servant to come over for questioning, but he opened his mouth wide, but couldn't make a sound.

The sound of the wooden fish in the mourning hall knocked on his heart one after another. Li Chao's heart was broken after a series of rebirth spells, and the cigarette smoke filled the air. Finally, Li Chao walked to the mourning hall and pushed open the closed door.

He saw—!

call!

Li Chao woke up from the nightmare with cold sweat on his forehead.He looked around and felt relieved when he saw that everything was as usual.Wearing a thin undershirt, he got out of bed and poured a glass of water. After taking a few gulps, he finally recovered and let out a long breath of relief.

Fortunately, it was just a dream.

It was already dawn, and Nanting, who was guarding the door, heard the movement in the room, knocked on the door, and opened the door to come in after getting an affirmative answer.As soon as he entered the door, Nanting immediately yelled.

"Hey, my little ancestor, why did you get out of bed without wearing anything, what should you do if you catch a cold? If you let the ladies know about this, they will definitely peel off my skin. Come, come, put on your jacket Come on. Shili, hurry up and fetch hot water, fill the city, let the small kitchen heat up the food."

For ten miles, the whole city is full of family members who entered the mansion with Nanting. They are all about the same age. The three of them are from the same township. When the family suffered a flood, they fled to escape. They have been living in Dongdu all the time.When Li Chao met them, they were being chased and beaten for stealing. Li Chao paid for them and took them in again.For their benefactor, the three of them naturally served them wholeheartedly.
