"Hey! Come and see, everyone! The trash is here to peek at our practice again."
In a small forest in the back mountain of Lu Mansion, a group of teenagers about fifteen or sixteen years old surrounded a younger boy in the middle.
There are about ten people in this group of teenagers. Some of them are wearing silk and satin, and they are obviously young masters from the Lu family. Some of them are wearing ordinary robes and are standing behind the young master. It can be seen from the obedient expressions in their eyes.
They are all the young master's followers, that is, the training disciples. These people have followed the young master since childhood, obeyed the young master's orders, and become the young master's right-hand man when they grow up.
The young man who just spoke was the oldest. He was wearing a yellow robe made of silk. Most people could not wear robes of this color. Except for the royal family and nobles, only those with noble titles and distinguished status could wear them.
Of course, there is a custom in the empire that the title is inherited from father to son. If the person holding the title dies, his son can inherit the title.
Lu Tao is the eldest son of the Lu family. If nothing happens, he will become the successor of the Lu family in the future.
The young man surrounded by everyone looked a little shabby, which was in sharp contrast to the others. The clothes he was wearing were very ordinary, and they were washed white. You could tell at a glance that he was wearing these clothes.
Not only that, the young man's body was also very weak, even so weak that it seemed as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
Lu Tao looked at the young man, his eyes full of disdain, and said sarcastically: "Do you think I should call you Lu Yang, or should I call you Ninth Brother, or should I call you trash?"
As soon as these words came out, the other young masters laughed loudly and looked at Lu Yang with a look full of teasing.
"What, you don't want to answer, or should I answer for you?" Lu Tao sneered and changed the subject, "Actually, I think that even calling you a waste makes you look down on you. You are not even as good as a waste. You are such a big person.
, there is not even a bit of real power in the body, what is it if it is not trash? Also, have you forgotten what I said last time? "
Lu Yang didn't answer. He gave Lu Tao a cold look, turned around and walked out of the woods.
Seeing the other party leaving, Lu Tao's face darkened, he suddenly raised his right hand, grabbed Lu Yang's shoulder, and said sternly: "Little waste, do you still want to leave?"
The force of this grab was extremely strong and the speed was unimaginable.
At such a fast speed, Lu Yang couldn't dodge and was about to be caught.
Under the huge force, Lu Yang stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Lu Tao had no intention of stopping, and turned his right hand into a fist again, and immediately swung it towards Lu Yang's chest.
As soon as the punch was thrown, the sound of wind was heard, and it came to Lu Yang's chest in an instant.
If this blow landed on Lu Yang's chest, Lu Yang would definitely be seriously injured and his life would be in danger.
The other teenagers were also stunned. They didn't expect Lu Tao to be so ruthless. They all froze in place, not knowing what to do. At this critical moment, a figure ### came and blocked Lu Yang's path in the blink of an eye.
In front of her, she raised her hands to block Lu Tao's punch.
Although the fist blocked it, the huge force still made the girl take half a step back.
The girl glared at Lu Tao angrily and said with some dissatisfaction: "Cousin, what are you doing? Why do you always teach your cousin a lesson?"
This girl looks to be thirteen or fourteen years old. She has an extremely delicate face and is obviously a beauty.
She is not from the Lu family, but a distant relative of the Lu family. If we have to talk about her relationship with the Lu family, it is actually very simple. Lu Tao's mother is also from a prominent family, and marriages between large families often occur because of some interests.
, there are constant exchanges on weekdays. Not only that, the younger generation of disciples of the family will choose a period of time every year to go to a big family to compete in martial arts, and this year it happens to be the Lu family's turn.
Lu Tao was slightly startled. He obviously didn't expect the girl to stand up for Lu Yang. He looked at her in surprise and said, "Cousin, did you have a fever today and did you stand up for him again?"
Jiang Zirou turned to look at Lu Yang, gave him a don't worry look, and said to Lu Tao: "It doesn't matter why I stand out, as long as I am here, you are not allowed to bully him."
Lu Tao's expression changed, as if he wanted to have an attack, but he was worried about something. He finally endured it and said with a smile: "Zirou, what are you talking about? As the eldest son of the Lu family, how can I treat the people of the Lu family?"
It's not good. I just taught him a lesson just to make him remember better. Even if you don't come, I won't be harsh."
"Really?" Jiang Zirou blinked her eyes, obviously not believing it.
"Of course it's true." Lu Tao smiled, "Even if I lied to everyone in the world, I wouldn't dare lie to you!"
Jiang Zirou thought for a while and then said to Lu Yang, "He really didn't bully you."
Lu Yang looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, moved his mouth, and finally changed his words: "No."
Jiang Zirou glanced at Lu Tao with satisfaction, then thought of something again, excitedly waved her fists, and said impatiently: "Since everything is fine, let's go back together! I heard from my aunt that a sumptuous dinner has been prepared today."
Then, he took Lu Yang's hand and walked out of the woods.
Seeing this, Lu Tao hurriedly came to Jiang Zirou and said: "Cousin, you go with them first. I have a few words to say to my younger brother." After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Zirou who was walking towards this side.
Family disciple.
At this time, a disciple of the Jiang family also came over. Jiang Zirou nodded and said, "Okay! You can't bully my little cousin anymore. If you let me know, I won't be able to spare you..." She waved at Lu Yang
With a small fist, he ran to the Jiang family disciples, whispered a few words, and left with everyone.
Lu Tao came to Lu Yang, the anger in his eyes became thicker, and he warned: "Little trash, I don't know how you met Zirou, and I don't want to know, but I want to remind you, don't let her have any ideas.
It's best to stay away from her. Otherwise, I will make it impossible for you to be a man in your life." After saying that, he glared at Lu Yang.
"I understand." Lu Yang lowered his head and said softly.
Lu Tao snorted coldly and continued: "Also, for Zirou's sake, I won't argue with you today, but I still say the same thing, if I catch you here to peek next time, I will
I will definitely not spare you." After saying that, he waved his hands and said impatiently, "Get out! Get away as far as you can..."
Lu Yang didn't say a word, turned around and walked out of the woods. But after walking a few steps, he felt a pain in his back. His body flew forward and flew three feet away before falling to the ground.
After that, there was a sharp pain in Lu Yang's body. No matter how stupid he was, Lu Yang knew that Lu Tao had attacked him sneakily, and a look of anger flashed in his eyes.
Lu Yang stood up with difficulty, glanced at his scratched and bleeding hands, and then looked at Lu Tao.
"Don't get out yet. I was very gentle just now. If you don't leave, I don't mind giving you a few more blows, haha!!!" Lu Tao laughed loudly and looked at Lu Yang as if he was looking at someone.
idiot.
At this moment, a majestic low voice suddenly came from outside the woods, "Whoever is making noise, come out..."
Through the hundred-foot-long woods, you can vaguely see a middle-aged man standing there. This man is strong and obviously a martial arts practitioner. From the yellow robe he wears, you can determine his identity. He is the current patriarch of the Lu family.
——Lu Zhentian. Similarly, Lu Zhentian is also the most powerful person in the family.
Lu Tao glared at Lu Yang, winked at everyone around him, and immediately walked out of the woods.
The hundred-foot-long forest soon reached the outside of the forest. Lu Tao and other legitimate sons bent down and saluted one after another, and respectfully said: "Father..."
Lu Zhentian nodded and said to Lu Tao and others: "The banquet is about to start. You go quickly. I have something important to announce later, so don't waste the time."
Lu Tao and others said in unison: "Yes, father, I will go right away."
Lu Zhentian was just about to leave when he inadvertently glanced into the woods. When he saw a young man limping towards the other direction in the woods, he couldn't help but frown. In Lu Zhentian's memory, he had never seen him before.
That young man, and that young man actually appeared here and was injured again, which made him curious about the identity of the other person.
Lu Zhentian frowned and asked Lu Tao and others who were about to leave: "Who is he? You hurt him..."
When his father asked about this, Lu Tao knew he couldn't hide it, so he quickly replied: "Father, he is useless... Ninth Brother, we just made a joke with him..."
"Ninth brother?" No matter how stupid Lu Zhentian is, he still knows that he is the ninth son, but the first eight sons all know that they were all born to the first wife and the common wife. Who is the mother of this ninth son?
Lu Zhentian thought for a long time, but still couldn't remember who the other party's mother was, so he shouted into the woods: "Come here, my father has something to say to you..."
In the woods, Lu Yang's body trembled. Once upon a time, he had thought about being able to talk to his father more than once. Even if it was just one sentence, he would be satisfied. But after so many years, his father has not looked for him, and he seems to have forgotten that he has
Over time, Lu Tao gave up hope for his son.
Unexpectedly, today, since his father took the initiative to find him, Lu Yang was still a little excited and looking forward to it.
Lu Yang took a deep breath, turned around slowly, and said respectfully: "Father..."
Lu Zhentian looked at Lu Yang carefully. He could vaguely see what he looked like when he was young on his childish face, and he was already sure that he was his son. Lu Zhentian felt a little guilty. He had such a son, but he never knew that at this moment
He even wanted to know who his son's mother was and why she hadn't found him all these years.
Lu Zhentian saw Lu Yang standing there with some restraint, and waved his hand: "Come here, my father wants to ask you something."
Lu Yang hesitated for a moment and walked towards his father. When he came to his father, he heard Lu Zhentian ask: "My child, what is your name?"
"My name is Lu Yang." Lu Yang replied.
"Lu Yang, Lu Yang..." Lu Zhentian muttered twice in a low voice and nodded, "That's a good name. What's your mother's name and where does she live?"
Lu Yang felt a little sad. He didn't expect his father to forget his mother's name, but he still replied: "Back to my father, my mother's name is Su Rui. We have been living in the thatched cottage in the northwest corner of the mansion."
