When Xiao Jihan was rushing to the top of the mountain with all his strength, a dazzling light suddenly hit his eyes. He saw the figure of a young man. He saw that the young man was wearing coarse linen clothes, standing in front of him.
Under the bright morning sun, coming quickly from the top of the mountain, that dazzling light came from the young man's hand.
Xiao Jihan's eyes widened, and his heart was filled with shock. When the excited young man passed by him quickly, he finally saw clearly what was in the young man's hand, the Xiao family token!
That dazzling light is the sunlight reflected by the golden "Xiao" character on the token!
Xiao Jihan knew what the token meant. He stopped and turned to look at Chen Hao's back, a dark green light flashing in his eyes.
Xiao Jihan, sixteen years old, is the strongest among the seven generations of Xiao family's outer disciples. He became a disciple of the Xiao family at the age of twelve. It only took him four years to reach the rank of seventh-level warrior. He is expected to become a member of the Xiao family before he is twenty years old.
Disciple, this is definitely a genius!
Chen Hao would never have thought that before he entered the Xiao family, he would have an enemy who was temporarily very powerful for him!
The reason is just because of a girl that Chen Hao doesn't know at all - Xiao Jiyan!
…
"Senior Brother Ji Han, I guess he can definitely become a disciple of the Xiao family!"
When Chen Hao's mother wanted Chen Hao to withdraw from the test, a slim, angelic girl stood next to Xiao Jihan, looked at Chen Hao's mother and son, and said softly.
"Huh? Why?"
"Confidence, courage, everything Uncle Xiao Guan said, he has it all!" Xiao Jiyan said: "Moreover, he looks different from others... so good-looking... Hehe..."
The little girl smiled like a flower, looked at Chen Hao in the field, and said carelessly.
But it was precisely because of Xiao Jiyan's unintentional words that countless black lines appeared on Xiao Jihan's handsome face. He stared at the little girl who was still smiling at Chen Hao. He originally did not take Chen Hao, a poor boy, into his eyes at all.
He also turned his head and looked at it carefully. This sight didn't matter, and he immediately felt a hint of danger.
The little girl is Xiao Jiyan, the third daughter of the Xiao family. She is thirteen years old. She has curved eyebrows and big watery eyes. Although she is young, she is a perfect beauty. She is the most beloved daughter of Xiao Ding, the head of the Xiao family, and Chen Hao.
The sixteen-year-old Xiao Jihan, who is of the same age, has already had the ambition to capture him. Once he can become the Xiao family's son-in-law, his future status can be imagined, and the Xiao family's peerless martial arts will be at his fingertips.
And Xiao Jiyan inadvertently revealed her affection for Chen Hao, and the two were of the same age. Especially, in Chen Hao's eyes, Xiao Jihan saw an "ambition" similar to his, which made Xiao Jihan feel a little...
The smell of danger.
However, at that time, Xiao Jihan didn't care much. After all, although it was dangerous, it did not pose any threat to him. But now, the amazing speed shown by Chen Hao really made Xiao Jihan feel threatened.
…
"Any threat must be nipped in the cradle!" Xiao Jihan looked at Chen Hao's back and said coldly. This sentence was instilled in him by his wealthy father since he was a child, and he has always believed it to be the truth.
.
"After the seventh generation of disciples, the first person to be promoted to the inner disciple must be me, Xiao Jihan! Xiao Jiyan must also be my Xiao Jihan! No one can even think of it!"
…
Seeing the surprised eyes of the young people looking at him, Chen Hao was extremely happy. He had become a disciple of the Xiao family, and these young people were still working hard to pass the examination!
He never knew he could run so fast. He just wanted to pass the test, but he didn't expect to be the first to reach the peak. He saw the surprise in everyone's eyes and knew that he had done well. This sense of superiority made him the first to reach the peak.
Feeling his own worth for once, he was very happy that he could finally do something for his family.
Thinking of his father who is bedridden and disabled all year round, of his mother who works day and night and is haggard, of his younger brothers and sisters who are so thin because they don’t have enough to eat... Chen Hao, who was running quickly, unknowingly had tears in his eyes, but his eyes were full of tears.
More determined, he ran faster!
He wanted to tell his family the good news as quickly as possible!
…
"Huh? Why is this kid back?" The parents who were waiting eagerly in the martial arts field suddenly found the poor kid wearing coarse linen clothes running out from the gate leading to the back mountain, "Haha... he must have been eliminated early.
Come on, look at him crying, is there any use in crying... How can a poor child become a disciple of the Xiao family? You know, my child needs two taels of silver just to eat every day. Without a good body, how can he pass the test of the Xiao family?
ah……"
"No, my children don't even have enough for two taels. They have to eat ginseng and bird's nest every day..."
Entering the martial arts arena, Chen Hao saw his mother who was looking eagerly at a glance. There were three more people beside his mother, each of them looked at him nervously. Seeing this scene, Chen Hao was already in tears.
, an inexplicable emotion emerged in his heart, and he couldn't control his tears anymore, streaming down in a thin stream, and he ran towards them quickly.
"Mother, Ergouzi, younger brother, younger sister,..." Chen Hao said with a little choked up.
"Brother! Wuwuwu..." Two pitifully thin boys and girls of six or seven years old threw themselves into Chen Hao's arms at the same time and hugged him tightly, crying loudly as if they were afraid of losing their brothers.
"Godsend, don't cry...it doesn't matter if you don't pass, as long as you can come back alive...Mom, as long as you are safe..." The middle-aged woman's tense nerves did not relax until this moment, and she hugged herself tightly.
The children whispered.
"Brother Tianci, I'm sorry... It's all my fault. I shouldn't have told you... to make my uncle and aunt worry..." A boy who was about the same age as Chen Hao and looked very honest had a look of remorse on his face and scratched his head.
The head whispered, tears welling up in his eyes. This boy was Chen Hao's only friend, Er Gouzi.
"No, mother..." Only then did Chen Hao realize that everyone was completely wrong.
"Stop talking, mother knows, let's go home...don't let your father worry..."
"Hehe..." Just when Chen Hao didn't know what to do, a clear and pleasant laughter, like a silver bell, rang in their ears.
Chen Hao's family and Er Gouzi all looked over immediately. They saw an angelic girl appearing in front of them, with curved thin eyebrows, big eyes, and a white and rosy face. She happened to look at them with a smile.
Hold them.
"Why are you crying? This little brother has passed the test. You should be happy!" The girl's silver bell-like voice sounded again.
"Passed...passed...the test?"
The girl's voice was clearly heard in everyone's ears. Not only Chen Hao's mother, brother, sister, Er Gouzi, but also everyone around him suspected that he had heard wrongly, and everyone's eyes widened. The four-hour test
, he came back within an hour, how could he pass the test?
"Is this...is it true?" Chen Hao's mother asked uncertainly.
Chen Hao just wanted to speak, but the girl took the lead again.
"Of course it's true, look what's in his hand?" the girl said, pointing to the token in Chen Hao's hand.
"this……"
"This is the token of our Xiao family. Only disciples who pass the test will get it. Hehe, I'm telling you, you can do it!" The girl smiled coquettishly and patted Chen Hao's shoulder and said, "Little brother
, you should be happy, why are you crying? By the way, what is your name?"
After glancing at the girl, Chen Hao quickly looked away. His delicate face turned red and he stammered: "My... my name is Chen Hao!"
"Chen Hao... Xiao Xianghao... doesn't sound very nice! But... I can definitely restore my real name!" The girl said as if talking to herself, and suddenly smiled and said to Chen Hao: "My name is Xiao Jiyan, and I will be you from now on.
I’m a senior sister, remember to call me senior sister... Hehe, I finally have a junior brother... Okay, I’m going to practice. If you have any difficulties in the future, remember to ask your senior sister for help. The senior sister is very powerful, hehe..."
After the girl finished speaking, she jumped away like a happy angel.
"Xiao Jiyan..." Chen Hao secretly glanced at the retreating figure and murmured.
