Chu Yun had just returned home when a childish voice reached his ears. Then he saw a petite figure, happily rushing out of the house and throwing herself into his arms.
This is an eight-year-old boy with a chubby face and a bit of baby fat that has not faded away. He is very cute.
This is Chu Yun's younger brother Chu Yi, who is seven years younger than him.
Seeing Chu Yi, Chu Yun's eyebrows, which were still a bit worried, immediately relaxed. A smile appeared on his face and he said, "Xiao Yi, why are you so happy? What happened?"
"Brother, guess what!" Xiaoyi blinked mischievously and looked at his brother expectantly.
Chu Yun glanced at him suspiciously, and then his nose seemed to smell something fragrant. His eyes suddenly lit up and he said happily: "Xiao Yi, could it be you who cooked the rice?"
"That's right!" Xiao Yi said with a very proud look: "Brother, I am really good. My brother didn't learn to cook until he was eight years old. Xiao Yi is not yet eight years old!"
Chu Yun picked him up and walked into the house while touching his little head and said: "It's amazing, Xiao Yi is the most amazing!"
Xiaoyi was even more excited when he was praised by his brother, and said: "I washed the dishes, wiped the table, and washed all the dishes today, so that when my brother comes back, he only needs to cook the dishes and then he can eat!"
Chu Yun praised him repeatedly, but for some reason, when he saw Xiao Yi being so sensible, the corners of his eyes became a little moist.
However, he concealed himself well and was not discovered by Xiao Yi. After entering the house and putting Xiao Yi down, he walked to the kitchen and saw the dishes and vegetables washed by Xiao Yi.
A smile appeared on his lips again, and then he started to cook, and soon he had two dishes and one soup ready. The two brothers started to eat happily.
What happened in the martial arts field today, and the sudden surprise Xiao Yi gave him, touched Chu Yun's heartstrings. While eating, Chu Yun glanced at the simple house, and once again couldn't help but clenched his fists, but in the end
I can only sigh helplessly: If my father was still here, we wouldn't even have to do things like cooking and boiling water ourselves...
Chu Yun's father is the second eldest son of the second generation of the Chu family. His name is Chu Hanfeng. He was once a well-known genius. The hope of revitalizing the family can be said to be extremely prosperous.
However, God is jealous of talents. Eight years ago, when Chu Yun was only seven and a half years old, he suddenly died due to an accident. He was like a comet, passing away in a flash, leaving only a splendid scene that made many people sigh.
.
As for the reason for his mysterious death, Chu Yun found out after asking around that he had gone to a place he shouldn't have gone to. As for what that place was, he had never been able to find out.
Chu Yun only knew that because of his father's mysterious death, the mother who had just given birth to Chu Yun's younger brother Chu Yi also died of grief. As for his grandfather, the original head of the Chu family, he was also disheartened and directly
I handed over the position of head of the family to your uncle Chu Yun, and then went into seclusion. From then on, I ignored worldly affairs and concentrated on cultivation.
Chu Yun has never seen him since, and now he doesn't even remember his appearance at all.
After both his parents passed away, Chu Yun, who was not yet eight years old, could only take care of the family alone and shouldered the responsibility of taking care of himself and his younger brother.
Over the years, he has suffered many hardships that his peers have never experienced, which has also developed his temperament that is now more sensible and mature than his peers.
The only thing that Chu Yun still can't accept is that when he was ten years old, when he was about to start formal training, he was told that there was no martial flame in his Dantian!
On this continent called Yanhun, there is a unique Yanwu civilization. This special cultivation civilization is based on martial arts. Most people are born with martial flames in their dantian. After training, they can
It ignited, and from then on he entered the martial arts.
As for those who don’t have martial flames and fire, they are destined to have no chance of practicing cultivation in this life.
Chu Yun, who was originally favored by many people, turned out to be a typical tiger father and dog son without Wu Yanhuo!
This fact once made Chu Yun feel that his life was completely over.
In the Chu family, if you don't have enough strength or talent, no matter what your identity is, you will not get any status. A person like Chu Yun who can't even practice, if it weren't for his father's relationship, he probably wouldn't even be able to continue.
He no longer has the qualifications to live in the Chu family's mansion.
However, for the sake of his younger brother, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
He was barely kicked out of the Chu family's mansion, and his status was far inferior to that of ordinary people of the same age. Even the necessities of life now required him to use his own labor and do some chores at home to obtain them, so that their brother could
The two of them kept food and clothing.
He had thought more than once that it would be great if he could practice. At least the two brothers would not have to live so hard!
Therefore, he has never given up on learning martial arts. However, even though his understanding of martial arts is astonishing, he can only listen to the lessons at the end of the martial arts field. After all, he cannot practice. No matter how good he is in martial arts, he will not have the power to exert its power in the end.
It can be a fancy fist and embroidered legs.
"Brother, what kind of martial arts did you learn today?" Xiaoyi suddenly asked curiously while eating.
"Swordsmanship, Third Uncle taught us a set of swordsmanship!" Chu Yun said with a slight smile.
"Wow, that must be very handsome!" Xiao Yi said with envy, "It's a pity that I'm still too young to learn..."
Chu Yun laughed and said: "Don't worry, you will learn all these in the future, and you will also learn more and better martial arts than my brother. Xiaoyi will definitely become a very powerful flame warrior, and my brother will have to rely on you in the future."
Protect!"
Xiaoyi also laughed and said: "Yes, I will be able to start practicing in just two years. By then I will definitely beat the crap out of those bad guys who have been bullying us!"
"Well! Brother believes in you!"
Chu Yun couldn't help but want to touch his little head, but he didn't expect Xiao Yi to avoid it, and then said: "Brother, Master said you can't touch your head when eating, it's very dirty!"
Chu Yun smiled awkwardly and touched his nose. He didn't expect that he would be taught a lesson by this little guy. However, this also reflected that Xiaoyi had indeed grown up slowly. As long as he could start practicing, then the future
It must be bright.
As for Chu Yun... he thought about this problem, but fell into confusion again. Should he just be an ordinary person for the rest of his life and let his younger brother protect him? He was really unwilling to do so!
At this moment, suddenly, there was a rapid sound of bells and drums outside the house.
When he heard this voice, Chu Yun's expression couldn't help but change, and he stood up suddenly.
Just because the sound of bells and drums represents extremely important meaning, he has heard it once since he was born. That time was when his father died and the body was returned!
The sound of bells and drums will be sounded when something urgent and important happens in the Chu family, and it is the sound that summons all the Chu family members over the age of fifteen to the Chu family hall to discuss matters.
Chu Yun put down the bowls and chopsticks, ran out of the house, and turned around and said, "Xiaoyi, brother must go to the hall now. You stay at home and read, or take a shower and go to bed early. Do you understand?"
Chu Yi seemed to want to follow him and have a look, but after hearing what he said, he had no choice but to nod his head obediently and said, "I know, brother."
Chu Yun walked quickly and soon arrived at the Chu family's hall.
When he came to the hall, he found that many people had gathered here. When he walked into the hall, he immediately saw a person who surprised him, standing in the center of the Chu family hall.
Chu Yun was slightly startled: He is...grandpa?
In the center of the hall, standing right now was an old man in a blue robe.
The old man has gray hair, his eyes are like lightning, and he has an aura of calmness and authority. He stands upright, looking capable and rigorous.
If Chu Yun remembered correctly, this old man was his grandfather who had been in seclusion for nearly eight years—Chu Yaozu!
At this time, his eyes were inspecting the children of the Chu family who were entering the hall one after another. However, it was obvious that the procrastination of many of the younger generation of the Chu family made him very dissatisfied, and he frowned repeatedly.
When his eyes swept over Chu Yun's body, he seemed to pause for a moment, and then moved away.
Chu Yun, who was still surprised that his grandfather suddenly came out of seclusion, didn't even notice that he was almost the first among the younger generation of the Chu family to rush into the hall.
This may also be because Chu Hanfeng's sudden death that year made Chu Yun particularly sensitive to the family's emergency bell.
However, what he didn't expect was that this would actually attract Chu Yaozu's attention.
What made him even more unexpected was that because he saw Chu Yaozu, he paused slightly, which made Chu Long who rushed in from behind very unhappy.
Chu Long then thought about Chu Yun's relationship with him at the martial arts field, which made him still have to eat. If it weren't for this alarm, they would hardly be able to leave the martial arts field.
For a moment, old and new hatreds surged into his heart, and his head became hot. He couldn't help but pushed Chu Yun hard and shouted: "Get out of here, don't block the road here, you loser!"
Chu Yun was accidentally pushed by him and almost fell over. He fell to the ground in a panic and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah!"
In an instant, everyone's eyes in the entire hall were focused towards this side.
Chu Long was a little proud because he had taken revenge, but when he saw such a scene, especially when he saw Chu Yaozu casting two angry glances at him, he suddenly trembled all over and his feet
I felt weak and almost couldn't stand still.
He quickly explained: "I...he...he just blocked the way and delayed our discussion, so I..."
But Chu Yaozu had a sullen face, turned to look at a middle-aged man next to him, and shouted coldly: "Chu Hanxiao, is this the well-managed Chu family you said? Is this the son you educated? The future of the Chu family
The heir?!"
Everyone in the entire hall was startled by the sound and fell silent.
