Disasters will always become a turning point in a person's life.
The following year he suffered from the Awakening of Insects.
"Second brother, how should I twist this place?" Zijuan tied her long black hair behind her back with a rope. She looked capable and held a smaller spear in her hand. It was still cold in the beginning of spring, but
My face was covered in sweat from practice.
"Your body is more flexible than mine, so you should be able to try this."
Xiang An suddenly turned around, his gun was faster than a man, and it suddenly pierced the wooden stake behind Xiang An, piercing the head of the wooden stake directly.
Xiang Yu sat on the edge of the martial arts arena and hugged his chest, nodding silently.
Xiang An's carbine style is getting more and more powerful.
"Second brother, handsome!" Zijuan gave Xiang An a thumbs up.
"Practice more. It's not easy to master the gun thing. You have to work harder." Xiang An pulled out his spear from the wooden stake and touched the head of the wooden stake.
"Yeah!" Although Xiang An's words were a bit harsh, they did not dampen Zi Juan's enthusiasm.
"But... Ah Hua, why do you want to practice martial arts?" Xiang An's expression was a little curious.
Zijuan, who was poking at the wooden stake with his gun, stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Her expression was not sad, but determined.
"...When our village was hit by earthquakes and mudslides, it was the eldest and second brothers who saved me." Zi Juan lowered her head and looked at the gun in her hand.
Xiang An didn't answer, just looked at Zijuan quietly.
"Grandpa is dead, father and mother are dead, and Ashu is also dead." Even though she was strong, Zijuan would still shed tears. Her hand holding the gun trembled slightly, but she said something extremely cruel to her.
Reality.
"If I hadn't been lucky, I would have..."
"Stop talking." Xiang An squatted down, hugged Zijuan, and stroked Zijuan's head, "It's all over..."
"No, second brother, you misunderstood." Zijuan pushed Xiang An away, her eyes always staying on the gun in her hand.
"The reason why you were able to stop the controlled tiger and rescue me from the ruins is probably because of your powerful force." Zijuan is eight years old, but she speaks very different words from her eight-year-old self.
"I will lose everything before, precisely because I don't have as strong a force as my eldest brother and my second brother, so...in order to keep everything I have now, I must make myself stronger!" Zijuan lowered his voice.
Xiang An couldn't see her expression.
She gritted her teeth, her face looked a little ferocious, her whole body was trembling, and tears flowed out of her eyes and fell to the ground.
"I must, I must..."
"Xiaojuan." A hand patted Zijuan's shoulder.
"...Huh?" Zijuan raised her head and met Xiang Liang's eyes.
"father?"
"Don't think so much." He stroked Zijuan's head gently, with a gentle smile on Xiang Liang's face. Of course, Xiang Liang's face itself was already quite unemotional.
"...but!" Zijuan's eyes were still filled with tears, and her expression was a bit fierce.
"Look at us, Xiaojuan." Xiang Liang's hands grasped Zijuan's shoulders. Behind him, stood brother Xiang Yu and Xiang An.
"We will hold up the sky for you, and you won't lose anything anymore, so...you don't have to force yourself so much, okay?" Xiang Liang sighed and wiped away Zijuan's tears with a smile.

"Don't worry, little guy, there will be no problem in the future." Liu Ji rubbed the head of the little boy standing next to him and smiled.
"...I understand, Mr. Liu." The little boy looked a little indifferent and just sat on the stool.
"I told you not to call me Mr. Liu..." Liu Ji sighed and scratched his head, "I can't support you either. I'm raising children before I'm married..."
"So I can only ask the aunt in the other courtyard to take you with me first." Liu Ji flicked Zi Huai's head and smiled, "You kid won't hold grudges against me, right?"
"No, but you are the head of the Sishui pavilion, so you deserve to be called an adult." Zi Huai bowed slightly, "My aunt is very good to me, so Zi Huai is very grateful to you."
"No matter what, living is a good thing." Liu Ji sat on the stone next to him, "After all, as long as people are alive, there is still hope of working hard, right?"
"Yeah." Zi Huai sighed coldly, sat next to Liu Ji, and looked at the sky wordlessly.
Just stay alive...
Grandpa, father, mother, sister Ahua...
Should I be the one who survives...
...
August.
Qin is still making progress, making Xiang Liang hopeless.
Both military power and civilian livelihoods are developing in an orderly manner. Although there are occasional small frictions, they are harmless.
Nothing major happened during this period. Xiang Yu and Xiang An were still angry with their husband every day, Zi Shu and Wu Ju's blood pressure remained high, and Zi Juan was working hard on the martial arts field every day.
"Hey--!"
The head of the gun came out and hit the body of the wooden pile. The wooden pile was broken into two halves with a "click".
Xiang Yu applauded and walked out from the side.
"For four days, I stayed in one position continuously. It's good. I've made a lot of progress compared to before."
"Brother..." Zijuan breathed heavily and smiled.
"Hey, the well water is here." Xiang An came over with three bowls of cool well water, "Drink it quickly. It's scorching hot now. It's not good to suffer from heatstroke."
"Thank you, second brother." Zijuan's eyes lit up and she responded casually. She picked up the bowl and drank it all, then wiped the corners of her mouth.
"By the way, brother, have you heard something?" Xiang An squatted on the weapon rack, but controlled his balance well and did not let the weapon rack tilt.
"What's the matter?" Xiang Yu glanced at Xiang An before he finished drinking the well water.
"Third Uncle, he recently bought a horse, which is said to be a thousand-mile horse." Xiang An chuckled, "But the horse's temperament was very fierce. Third Uncle tried to tame the horse, but was thrown off directly. Until now,
They’re all still lying on the bed!”
"Good guy!" Although Zijuan is a girl, she may have a carefree temperament because she has practiced martial arts for more than a year. In addition, she is a cheerful girl, so she looks a bit like a tomboy. "
How are you doing, Third Uncle?"
"I don't know." Xiang An shook his head, "But since we are all lying in bed, there must be something wrong."
"Xiang An, what do you mean..." Xiang Yu narrowed his eyes, with some interest in his eyes.
"Let's go and tame that horse!" Xiang An and Zijuan both came to Xiang Yu's side. "My third uncle can't ride it anyway. A good thousand-mile horse can't be wasted, right?"
Xiang Yu stood up immediately: "Let's go, let's go together!"
"Go quickly, go quickly."
"Hey, big brother and second brother, wait for me."
Xiang Bo, who was lying on the bed and groaning, suddenly had some bad premonitions and sneezed.
