"He's really dead!" Lu Zhan crouched down and looked at the stone with the leopard's head embedded in it. He thought to himself that he was really so powerful that he could kill a leopard's head instantly?
Maybe, this is just a coincidence, it doesn't mean anything, Lu Zhan murmured in his heart.
The young man really didn't believe that he had such strong power, so he decided to try throwing a stone again to see if the same effect would occur.
So he picked up a two-inch stone, stood up, and looked at a tree as thick as a bowl about three feet away. He took two deep breaths, slowly accumulated strength in his right arm, and then waved his arm, and the stone flew out.
——
"call out--"
He could hear the whistling sound of the stone cutting through the air, but he couldn't see clearly the trajectory of the stone's flight. He could only see a black line flashing past, and the trunk of the tree three feet away made a crisp "bang" sound, and the bark and sawdust "
There was a loud splash in all directions, and then the tree bent and fell down.
Lu Zhan opened his mouth wide and didn't close it for a long time.
Facts prove everything!
Lu Zhan felt ecstatic in his heart, it seemed that he indeed had amazing divine power.
If this is the case, then when I meet He Feng in the future, I will definitely not be able to defeat him in a face-to-face fight, but by using a sneak attack and throwing rocks at the back of his head, I might be able to kill him in one fell swoop!
Thinking of this, Lu Zhan had an idea in his mind. It seemed that he had to practice his stone throwing skills, and maybe he could develop a set of shocking stone throwing skills.
At this time, the insect-eater in the stomach made a wailing sound of "gurgling" again. Alas, I was really hungry!
The leopard in front of me is a beautiful delicacy, but——
Lu Zhan blinked and remembered a very depressing thing - there was no fire!
The fire dumplings I originally brought were also placed in my backpack, but now the backpack was forgotten more than fifty feet underground. I would never allow myself to climb down to retrieve it.
But how can we eat leopard meat without fire? It’s not like those barbarian tribes in the mountains.
Lu Zhan was hesitating, and the hungry insects in his stomach were urging him higher and higher, which made him finally make up his mind: "Never mind it! Give it a go! In order to avenge your father, even if it's just a carrion in front of you,
I have to eat up the tattered beast body and skin it alive piece by piece!"
After making up his mind, Lu Zhan rolled up his sleeves, first took out the stone embedded in the leopard's skull, then grabbed the fur at both ends of the wound with both hands, pinched it tightly with his fingers, and used his arms to tear it apart——
I saw that the skin and flesh were neatly separated, cleanly, and there was no tangle of tendons at all.
Lu Zhan smacked his tongue. He had helped his father skin a dog before and knew that it would be difficult to cut off the skin without a sharp knife. Now he could actually peel off the leopard skin with only the strength of his two hands.
, could it be that falling into a hole in the ground this time was really a blessing in disguise, and that I had received supernatural powers?
He can jump three feet high in one leap, he can blow a leopard's head off with a single blow of a stone, and he can tear a leopard's skin with his bare hands. Judging from all these signs, he is indeed a blessing in disguise after all his hardships!
Could it be that--
Is this the opportunity that the wretched immortal in the family mentioned? If this is the case, then my wish for revenge may be fulfilled.
Thinking of the sworn hatred between his father and his father, Lu Zhan no longer felt disgusted by the bloody pile of raw meat in front of him. He peeled off the leopard's skin, tore off a few pieces of the fattest leg meat, and stuffed it into his mouth with all the blood and meat.
.
A pungent smell of blood rushed into the nose. Because it was swallowed with blood, the raw meat had a salty and sour taste and was not particularly unpalatable.
Suddenly, he felt a heat rising in his Dantian, but this time it was not like the terrifying and suffocating hot feeling like when he was in the cave. This time, the heat made people feel warm all over, and the essence and blood in his body also followed.
It flows and turns, and the body feels indescribable effects.
As he ate more leopard meat, the heat in his Dantian circulated faster. After a while, he felt energetic, energetic and sensitive; all body functions reached their peak.
After devouring the leopard meat raw, he tore off a few more pieces of leopard meat and took it with him. It was very cold in the mountains at night, and all his clothes to keep out the cold were left in the cave. But now that he had this peeled off leopard skin, it was absolutely amazing.
It is a good thing to keep out the cold, and such a perfect leopard skin can be exchanged for more than ten taels of silver in the city market.
Now that he was sure he had the opportunity, Lu Zhan decided to return home.
He put on the leopard skin and walked back along the way he came. This journey home must be much easier than when he came here.
I saw him walking as fast as flying, walking over mountains and ridges with only mud balls, and his speed back was more than five times faster than when he came.
At nearly noon, Lu Zhan returned to his home in the southeast corner of Lu Mansion.
He unlocked the door and was about to push it open when he suddenly sensed someone peeping at him from behind, so he turned his head and looked back.
I saw a girl's head protruding from the corner of the house wall. When the girl saw that Lu Zhan had seen her, the girl's face suddenly turned red. She smiled shyly and said, "Zhan...Brother Zhan."
"Xiao Yan, what are you doing here?"
"Let's see you." The girl named Xiao Yan walked out from behind the wall. This girl has an oval face, big eyes, a small nose and a small mouth. When she smiles, two small dimples appear on her cheeks. She looks very sweet.
She is one year younger than Lu Zhan and is the personal maid of the fifth lady of the Lu family. Because she often goes to Lu's kitchen to order snacks, she is very familiar with Lu Zhan's father, Lu Tonghui. It is also for this reason that she met Lu Zhan.
However, she is the personal maid of the fifth young lady, and her status is relatively high among the servants of the Lu family. People with low status like Lu Zhan and his son would have disdained her.
But this girl obviously didn't care about this difference in status. Sometimes she would chat with Lu Zhan and talk about gossips inside and outside the house.
"Miss and I both know about your father's affairs! You must be considerate and considerate, and pay attention to your own health."
Xiao Yan approached Lu Zhan with a basket covered with coarse cloth in his hand and said, "I accompanied Fifth Young Lady to Hongzhou City a few days ago. I just came back two days ago, and I heard about your father when I came back. Really.
I didn’t expect that he, an old man with such an easy-going temperament, would suffer such a cruel attack..."
She handed the basket in her hand to Lu Zhan and said, "Take it, these are some snacks I brought back from Zhoucheng. I originally wanted to give them to your father to try, but his old man..."
After talking about it, Xiao Yan's throat got choked up and she was speechless.
Lu Zhan took the basket and thanked him in a low voice.
Xiao Yan raised his sleeves to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and asked, "Where have you been these two days? I've been here several times, but I haven't met you. I'm really worried."
Lu Zhan said "Oh" and wrote lightly: "I feel so depressed that I went to Beiquan Mountain to wander around."
"Beiquan Mountain?" Xiao Yan looked at the leopard skin on Lu Zhan's back in disbelief. His eyes suddenly widened and he said, "What is this? Leopard skin? How did you get this thing? And on you,
Why is it so bloody? There are so many holes?"
"Oh, well... I walked too deep in the barren mountains and unexpectedly came across a dead leopard, so I skinned it and brought it back." Lu Zhan lied without even blushing.
Lu Zhan didn't want to talk in depth with her about his journey to the north. After all, she was also from the inner courtyard of Lu Mansion, so he opened the door and said to Xiao Yan, "Do you want to come in?" He knew that the other party was a girl and would definitely do so.
She has some scruples, so she rejects her in a way of retreating.
Sure enough, Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, shook her head, "Forget it, I'm relieved to see you're fine. You can rest, I'm leaving." After saying that, she turned around and left.
Lu Zhan walked into the house and hid the leopard skin, hoping to find an opportunity to go to the market in a few days to exchange for some money.
After eating, he felt a little tired, so he lay down on the bed, staring at the mottled ceiling, thinking about the experiences of the past two days.
The experience of these two days was too miraculous for him. He still feels like he is in a dream, especially when he can jump so high with a vertical leap and kill such a ferocious adult leopard with a stone.
The sign itself means that he already has the foundation that martial arts practitioners dream of.
"Dad, my child can finally practice martial arts!" He whispered to the ceiling: "Your spirit in heaven must protect me."
In his mind, he remembered a past event. At that time, he was bullied by several young masters of the Lu family in the clan school. He felt particularly aggrieved when he came back. After his father, Lu Tonghui, knew the reason, he pondered for a while - "Child,"
He patted Lu Zhan's shoulder earnestly and said: "Don't think that my father is very useless and has no status at all in the Lu family. You think our family is just a low-income side branch of the Lu family. But the actual situation is different.
It's not what you think. In our lineage, there was a great master three hundred years ago. He was your great-great-grandfather Lu Yantian.
Lu Yantian was a famous general of the empire back then. His 'Frost Sky and Moon Night Spear' was so powerful in the border areas that he killed countless barbarian enemy generals who violated the border. He was ranked tenth on the 'Iron-Blooded Evil God List' that year.
Eight top masters. That was the most glorious moment for our series.
It's a pity that Lu Yantian, the great ancestor, died young. Due to being framed by a villain, he was trapped in a battle to suppress the rebels. He was surrounded and killed by more than thirty top masters. Among these masters, one of them was a platoon member.
Ranked 38th on the 'Iron-Blooded Evil God List', there are three other masters who are ranked 72nd, 73rd and 76th on the 'Iron-Blooded Evil God List' respectively.
Faced with the siege of so many masters, Lu Yantian showed no fear and fought bloody battles. Using a long spear, he exerted the power of sweeping the world and destroying the earth. He moved forward bravely and not only defeated all the four masters ranked on the 'Iron-Blooded Evil God List'
Picking and killing, and killing most of the other thirty top masters, in the end, he was exhausted due to injuries and died on the battlefield."
After Lu Tonghui finished talking about the glorious past of his ancestors, he looked at the sky in silence.
Lu Zhan waited for a while, but when Lu Tonghui didn't speak, he asked, "Dad, what happened next?"
"Later?" Lu Tonghui smiled bitterly, "It's a pity that Lu Yantian, the great ancestor, was always fighting on the battlefield and serving the country. He rarely took care of his family, so his peerless martial arts was not passed down to his direct bloodline, or even
His famous spear, the Frost Sky Moon Night Spear, was also lost in that battle. As a result, our lineage has been in decline since then, and has declined day by day. By your grandfather's generation, we were reduced to relying on odd jobs in the Lu Mansion.
Barely making ends meet.”
"Nothing more than a child!" Lu Tonghui looked at his son seriously: "Lv Yantian's descendants will never give up on themselves and lose their confidence because of a temporary setback. You must firmly believe that the descendants of our Lu family will one day return to Lu Yantian
The glory of the times. Although our family has been excluded and looked down upon by other families in Lufu over the years, we have always held on to such a firm belief or dream; so we have never left Lufu, because only here,
Only then do we have enough resources to revitalize our family, but the condition is that we must enter the core position of the family.
It's a pity that your grandfather and your father's qualifications are too poor. They have always performed unsatisfactory in martial arts, and it is difficult to enter the core position of the family. However, dad has never given up his efforts. The reason why dad works so hard is because he wants to serve his children.
You create some conditions to pave the way for you to truly enter the core of Lu Mansion in the future.
My child, your grandfather and father have endured the injustice and humiliation inflicted on us by other Lu clans over the years, but they have a firm belief in their hearts. I hope you can inherit this belief, no matter what the future.
No matter how hard the road is, we must revitalize the glory of our family. Maybe your generation cannot achieve this wish, but we must ensure that the next generation continues to maintain this belief and continue to work hard to move forward.
Maybe you are destined to face countless hardships in the future, but no matter what, you have to endure it, cheer up, and not be discouraged at all. You must do everything you can to create conditions for yourself or your next generation. No matter how much it costs, our family
Every family must eventually become one of the strongest, and when you can calmly face a peerless strongman without giving up, that will be the moment for our family to return to the pinnacle of glory."
Lu Zhan remembered what Lu Tonghui said to him back then, and couldn't help but feel excited again. Now after having an unexpected encounter, he finally had the opportunity to practice martial arts. So he secretly made up his mind, no matter how much hardship he had to endure and how many injuries he had to suffer in the future,
I also want to fulfill the last wish of my father and ancestors and revitalize the bloodline of their family.
Bang bang..."
Lu Zhan was awakened by a knock on the door. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was already dark. He had been asleep for more than three hours.
He removed the latch and opened the door. There were two people standing outside the door. One of them was Uncle Ding, and the other was a middle-aged man with a goatee.
When he saw Lu Zhan, Uncle Ding looked stunned and muttered: "Xiao Zhan, you...you are indeed at home." Obviously he did not expect Lu Zhan to be at home.
The guy with the goatee behind said in a sharp voice: "I told you that he was back. If you still don't believe it, you have nothing to say now. How often have I told lies?"
Lu Zhan asked: "Uncle Ding, who is this -"
"Oh, he is Steward Qiu from our outer mansion." Uncle Ding pointed to his goatee and introduced: "His old man just found me and asked me to bring him to you. He said that Butler Liu found a man in the mansion for you.
Errand. But you clearly went out to seek refuge with your relatives? Why did you come back again?"
Lu Zhan knew that Uncle Ding had been urging him to leave Lu Mansion to stay safe, so he said this.
But he has his own goal of avenging his father, and he will never leave this place until he achieves his goal.
"Oh, I really wanted to go to my relatives," he said, "but when I was halfway there, I realized that I had been living in Lu Mansion since I was born and had never left here. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to adapt to the outside world.
life, so I turned back."
This sentence was obviously addressed to Manager Qiu, but it made Uncle Ding frown. He muttered repressedly: "This kid, really...how could he be like this?"
Steward Qiu obviously liked hearing this explanation. He twirled his goatee and said, "Yes," "Well said, young man. It seems that our Steward Liu did not misjudge you."
Lu Zhan sneered in his heart: "Zhengchou didn't have a chance to get close to that bitch He Feng in the nursing hall, but now the opportunity has come to his door. There is hope for revenge!"
With a calm expression on his face, he bowed to Manager Qiu and said, "Thank you very much, Manager Liu, for your help. I wonder what kind of job he has found for me?"
Steward Qiu twirled his beard and said: "The Lu family has a mill by the Yiyang River. The old man who was looking at the mill a while ago, Li Tou, went back to his hometown to retire. In half a month, the autumn harvest season will come. What does Steward Liu mean?"
, I just want you to take over the mill, what do you think?"
