The family that Luo Zhen came from was a powerful official family in her own country, just like Qian Chao's family, and this had been the case for almost every generation.
Luo Zhen's surname is her mother's surname. Her father's surname is Wei, and her name was originally Wei Zhen. Her mother, Luo Shi, was originally the daughter of an official. Unfortunately, this official, Luo Zhen's maternal grandfather, offended the Wei family and was falsely accused and imprisoned. Later, he was convicted and executed. Naturally, the house was raided and his wife The daughter was also sold by the official. Coincidentally, in order to relieve their hatred, the Wei family bought the official's wife and daughter and used them as servants, which was considered to be a humiliation.
When Luo Shi grows up, he will be considered beautiful. The second son of the Wei family, called Wei Qian, had a long history of evil deeds and idleness, and could be regarded as the leader among the wandering children. Wei Qian became interested when he saw Luo Shi, and even took advantage of the fact that no one was around to humiliate her.
Afterwards, Wei Qian didn't take the matter to heart, but later he discovered that Luo Shi was pregnant, so he took Luo Shi as his concubine despite his wife's objections. The reason for this is not that Wei Qian saw Luo Shi's pity and gave her a status, but that the wife he was marrying had been silent for many years and had not given birth to a son or a half daughter.
Later, Luo Shi gave birth to a son, which made Na Wei Qian very happy.
A few years later, Luo gave birth to another daughter, Luo Zhen.
Speaking of which, if Luo Shi was just a maid, she would be able to live a decent life in the Wei family. However, her misery began after she was taken into Wei Qian's concubine.
Wei Qian's first wife was unable to bear children, but she was a fierce and jealous woman. Seeing that the lowly Luo Shi could still have another baby after giving birth, while she had the reputation of being a hen that couldn't lay eggs, she was filled with jealousy. , I have long wanted to get rid of it quickly. Since then, Luo Shi has suffered a lot, and even if she is not satisfied, she will be served by the so-called "family law." Even when she was pregnant with Luo Zhen, Wei Qian's head wife had to be served by Luo Shi for all kinds of chores, which made her miserable. Word.
With their mother like this, how can these two children have a good life in the Wei family? Luo Zhen and her brother had been bullied and abused in the family since childhood. Fortunately, Luo Zhen's brother loved this sister very much and always tried his best to protect her, which gave Luo Zhen a little comfort in her memory.
It's a pity that Wei Qian's first wife finally killed him!
Her target is not Luo Shi or Luo Zhen, but Luo Zhen's brother.
In a family like the Wei Mansion, if a woman is childless, her life will be very miserable in the future. This is what Wei Qian's wife is worried about. If her belly is not good enough, in the future Wei Qian's house will have to be taken over by that cheap maid. If my son comes to inherit, will he still be able to live a good life of his own by then? Even if she doesn't end up living on the street, she can't escape the days of being looked down upon and having nothing to eat, so this vicious woman decided to get rid of this annoying boy first.
For Luo Zhen, it was an afternoon she would never forget. Her brother, who was playing hide and seek with her, was lost forever after she hid him.
She was hiding in the bushes by a well, waiting for her brother to look for her. Unexpectedly, she saw several evil slaves grabbing her brother, covering his mouth and nose, so that he could not make any sound, and then he fell headfirst. Throw him into the well.
After a long time, the family members of the mansion fished the little body out of the well with hooks and poles, only to find Luo Zhen still motionless in the bushes.
When he heard this, Yanxuan was really stunned. He didn't expect that the heroic and imposing Senior Sister Luo in front of him had a past experience even worse than his own!
After experiencing that incident, Luo Zhen became speechless and remained dull and silent all day long. It took a year before she could speak again, and she became even more timid and fearful. She would panic even if the wind blew the curtain.
Although Luo had doubts about the theory that her son died after falling into a well, she could only endure it silently and shed tears all day long.
As for Luo Zhen's father, Wei Qian, the death of his son made him upset for a while, but fortunately, he could still regenerate, which was an opportunity to take in a few more concubines, so he didn't really care.
The hatred for the Wei family slowly and silently grew and spread in Luo Zhen's heart.
Finally, it was the year of the first-class selection. The Wei family was a family with a jade card for the first-class selection. That year, none of the children of the Wei family were selected, except Luo Zhen, but Luo Zhen's qualifications were not very good, and he was only an average candidate. That's all, but he was still taken to Youming Valley and started a year of body training.
Luo Zhen was weak and timid, so even though she was a woman, she was bullied a lot in Youming Valley. In addition, she was not familiar with spiritual practice at the time, so she failed to pass the spiritual enlightenment test a year later. He was sent to the Foreign Affairs Academy.
In the Foreign Affairs Academy, her mind gradually opened up. She was busy doing things every day, and then continued to practice in her spare time. Fortunately, everyone knows how to work hard at this time, so although the Foreign Affairs Academy is a bit tiring, it is much more satisfying than Youminggu.
Originally, if the Foreign Affairs Academy failed to move from physical training to Qi refining within five years, they would be sent back to their place of origin. However, in a little more than three years, Luo Zhen successfully cultivated the Dantian Qi Sea and was brought in from the Foreign Affairs Academy. door, and then after selection she came to Qixia Mountain.
The first days of her practice in Qixia Mountain were not smooth either. It was due to her personality that she was timid, cowardly, and hesitant. Therefore, Luo Zhen did not have a good life in the first days of Qixia Mountain, and her alchemy skills were also in a mess.
After reaching the third level of Qi Refining with stumbling steps, the disciples have to go to Jingshiyuan to receive orders, and then go outside the sect. Luo Zhen also led it by herself, and then did it by herself. Fortunately, she was a woman, and the bad boys at the entrance and exit of the sect wanted some face anyway, so they didn't make it difficult for her.
If nothing else happens, Luo Zhen will probably always be like this. If that's the case, he can only be regarded as a high-level Qi refining disciple now.
But at the fourth level of Qi refining, Luo Zhen encountered a big danger when she went out, and it was that time that changed her.
In order to pick the rare spiritual grass, she alerted the monster guarding the spiritual grass, which triggered a fight.
Luo Zhen was really scared to death when facing the monster. She secretly cursed herself for being greedy. In the past, she always picked up the simplest tasks when receiving assignments. Even if she received a few more items, she did not dare to take any risks. But this time, she accidentally Suddenly I saw a very good-looking spiritual grass, so I went to pick it.
Her situation at that time was similar to that of Yanxuan now, and her use of spells was also a mess. Therefore, not long after the fight, she was seriously injured by the monster and passed out.
Maybe the monster wasn't hungry, or maybe the monster disliked her for being thin. In short, when she woke up again, she found that she was still where the spiritual grass grew, and the monster was still there, but she was seriously injured. He was bleeding, and not only was he in severe pain all over his body, but he was also too scared to move at all.
But lying on the cold ground, enduring the pain, Luo Zhen recalled his past in detail, his kind and cowardly mother, his loving brother, the ruthless Wei family, the setbacks in Youming Valley, the hesitation of the Foreign Affairs Academy, the many things in Qixia Mountain The strange look in the eyes of her fellow apprentices made her finally ask herself, was she worth it?
Why do I suffer so much and why do I live like this?
What are you afraid of?
What else is there to be afraid of?
It's nothing more than death, either bleeding to death here, or fighting with that monster and being killed by it!
Or maybe you are lucky enough to return to the sect and continue to do nothing until your life is up, lying in bed waiting for death!
It’s all death anyway!
Then let's fight, either you die or I die!
…
When Yanxuan heard this, her whole body was trembling slightly, and her eyes were full of tears. She looked at Senior Sister Luo blankly.
Seeing Yanxuan like this, Luo Zhen smiled slightly and pulled her collar slightly, revealing her pink and white neck, but there was an ugly and frightening scar there, like a weird big hand strangling her neck tightly. .
"I kept this scar on purpose, just to remind me from time to time not to forget what I was like before." Senior Sister Luo said lightly.
In that encounter, Luo Zhen narrowly won, but she was also seriously injured. When the monster was killed by her luck, it was already late at night. The scene was messy and dirty, but Luo Zhen felt as if she had inhaled this... The most refreshing breath in my life.
