Chen Ziyang is a very passionate child, mainly due to his family education. Although the Chen family's dogma is pedantic, the children they teach are upright and courageous. The family was not prosperous, but in the early years there were some famous heroes. Ever since Chen Ji came to prominence more than 20 years ago, the Chen family has become less famous and has remained anonymous over the years.
Chen Ziyang learned swordsmanship from his father Chen Tianhe since he was a child, and he mastered the Chen family's swordsmanship thoroughly at a young age. Although Li Fenglan does not know martial arts, she is often seen dancing with jade and amber swords. It can be seen that the fairy sword and the Chen family's swordsmanship come from the same lineage, but there are many differences.
The Chen family's swordsmanship is stable and mature, with many kind moves and no killing moves unless absolutely necessary. The fairy sword is sharp and sharp, and it can hit people's vital points with every move.
Li Fenglan chatted with Chen Ziyang on the way into the city, and Chen Ziyang, who let down his guard, became very talkative.
He was very interested in the aunt and cousin he had never met. Last year, he heard that three girls came out of Chaolan Valley, one of whom was the daughter of the sword fairy Chen Shi. Later, he heard that the three girls had superb sword skills. In less than a year, they Time creates many myths. All these make Chen Ziyang fascinated, but unfortunately due to family dogma, his clan members are not allowed to leave the boundary of Xiangyang, nor are they allowed to have contact with Chaolan Valley.
After entering the city, the sun was already high and there were more people walking on the street.
Li Fenglan rode on the horse and asked Chen Ziyang: "You said that your people are not allowed to leave Xiangyang. What did you do last night?"
Chen Ziyang replied in a low voice: "Go out and do chivalry."
"Do you act chivalrously?"
"Yes, you probably haven't heard of it. Recently, a group of bandits came out of Xiangyang, often causing trouble in the countryside. I followed them all the way yesterday, but still lost them. Why don't I just come back now?"
Li Fenglan asked: "What are you going to do when you find this group of bandits?"
"Teach me a lesson."
Silly and kind of cute.
Seeing Li Fenglan couldn't help laughing, Chen Ziyang asked: "Is there anything wrong with what I said?"
"If people could change their ways after being taught a lesson, the world would be much more peaceful. How could there be so many evil people?"
"You are right," Chen Ziyang agreed, "but my family's motto is not to kill people."
"Then you teach them a lesson and they continue to cause trouble in the village. Doesn't that mean you did nothing?"
Chen Ziyang slapped his thigh, and he agreed with Li Fenglan's words: "That's right! Some people are just pregnant! Only when they are dead can they stop harming others! I mentioned it to my father and the others, but my uncles and uncles beat me up. He also said that I was on an evil path, not the right path, and that beating and killing would not solve the problem at all."
Li Fenglan raised her eyebrows: "I know Zhou...why your aunt left the family. I wouldn't be able to stand a family like yours with such great rules."
Chen Ziyang said contemptuously: "Of course you can't stand it. Outside Yangzhou City, more than forty people were killed just because they disagreed. Although I think sometimes people should kill, I can't kill indiscriminately like you."
Li Fenglan said helplessly: "It wasn't me who killed people outside Yangzhou City, it was your other cousin."
Chen Ziyang became interested: "Amber?"
"Can you bring 'sister' with you? Isn't your tutor very good? It's rude to call her by her first name."
"I have a tutor, so I have to be polite to others. But the family rules clearly say that I can't be polite to you."
Li Fenglan rolled her eyes: "Then you let me go to your house. Don't catch me and beat me when I get there later."
Chen Ziyang shook his head: "No, there are only three people in my family: me, my father, and my mother."
"Ah?" Li Fenglan was confused, "Didn't you just say you have uncles?"
"Yeah, we didn't live together, so we separated a long time ago. We are not a big family like the Mu family or the Yuan family, where hundreds of people live together. We are a small family. Putting aside this skill, we can live together with Just like ordinary people."
While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the back door of a house.
Chen Ziyang whispered: "You can come in quietly with me later."
Li Fenglan was confused: "Didn't you say you didn't live with your uncles? Why?
Still so careful? "
"They live next door and opposite. You will definitely be seen when you walk through the front door. Let me tell you, I have an aunt who has a lot of things and talks a lot. If she sees her, the whole family will know about it."
Chen Ziyang spoke and quietly opened the door.
It's really not a big house, just the yard of an ordinary person's house. The two entered the back door, and Li Fenglan heard the sound of laundry coming from the front yard. When I arrived in the front yard, I saw a plump middle-aged woman sitting by a large wooden basin washing clothes.
Hearing the footsteps behind her, the woman turned around, revealing a face that had been eroded by time.
Seeing her son, the woman was very happy: "Yang'er is back? Where did you go last night?... Ouch, who is this girl?"
Chen Ziyang ran to the woman and whispered something, and the woman's expression became serious.
Li Fenglan made a bow and said softly: "My niece Fenglan has met my aunt."
The middle-aged woman stood up and wiped her hands casually. She did not answer Li Fenglan's words, but looked at Chen Ziyang reproachfully: "Yang'er, are you crazy? What if your uncle finds out? No one finds out now. , send her away quickly."
Then he turned to look at Li Fenglan: "Daughter, it's not that my aunt kicked you out. This is the situation at home. If you come here, you will cause trouble."
Chen Ziyang was anxious: "Mom! Dad is like that! Just let him see him!"
Li Fenglan felt that she was in an embarrassing situation.
At this time, they heard a cough coming from the bedroom, followed by an old voice.
"Yang'er is back? What are you two arguing about?"
When Chen Ziyang heard his father's voice, he ran quickly to the bedroom regardless of his mother's dissuasion. Chen Ziyang's mother also quickly followed in.
Not long after, I heard Chen Ziyang’s father say loudly: "What?! Please come in quickly!"
Not long after, Chen Ziyang ran out of the house with excitement on his face and said to Li Fenglan: "Sister, come in!"
Li Fenglan had no choice but to enter the house.
The house was a little dim and the furnishings were simple. It seemed that their family of three lived an ordinary life, neither rich nor poor.
An old man was half lying on the bed, looking at Li Fenglan with squinted eyes.
This man is Chen Tianhe. He is two years younger than Chen Yan. He should be just forty years old this year, but he looks to be in his sixties. The hair is gray and the wrinkles are piled up.
Li Fenglan thought for a while and simply kowtowed: "Uncle and aunt, please, my niece Fenglan kowtows to you."
When Chen Tianhe heard Li Fenglan's voice, he was so excited that he shed two tears.
Now that he had seen the person, Chen Ziyang didn't know what to say and hurriedly came over to help Li Fenglan: "My dear, get up quickly and talk closer. Your uncle's eyes can hardly see the person anymore."
After saying that, he pulled Li Fenglan to the bed. ap.
Chen Tianhe couldn't stop crying and stretched out his hands towards Li Fenglan. Li Fenglan quickly held his hand and asked with concern: "It has been difficult for our family to escape these years. I came to see you so late. I didn't know that my uncle had suffered like this. "
Chen Ziyang said: "My father was assassinated by gangsters two years ago and was poisoned. In the past few years...that's it."
Chen Tianhe asked tremblingly: "My daughter, your mother, are you okay?"
"My mother is in good health. Thank you uncle for thinking about her."
"Hey," Chen Tianhe sighed, "it's been more than twenty years, and your grandfather has been dead for so many years. There is really no need to keep these rules at home. My daughter, when you get back, tell your mother to let her go home. Let's see."
Although Li Fenglan was embarrassed, she still agreed: "I will tell you when I have the chance."
"Daughter, who is your father?"
"My father's name is Zhou Xiao."
"Zhou Xiao? How is he?"
"My father is a very good man, and my mother has been very happy these years."
"That's good, that's good."
After that, the uncle and nephew talked a lot, mostly about Chen Tianhe's past. It was obvious that Chen Tianhe was very happy and energetic.
Chen Tianhe insisted on letting Li Fenglan stay at home for a few days, but Li Fenglan refused. She was afraid of causing trouble and harming the Chen family. It wasn't until Chen Tianhe's body could no longer bear it that the two of them ended the conversation.
Coming out of the bedroom, Chen Ziyang's mother said apologetically: "Daughter, don't blame your aunt for being rude, I really can't accommodate you in this house."
Li Fenglan nodded: "Auntie, I understand. This time when I came to Xiangyang, if I hadn't met Ziyang outside the city, I wouldn't have bothered you at all."
"It's still early, Yang'er, take your cousin out and arrange a place for your cousin to live. Remember to be careful so your uncle and the others don't see you."
Chen Ziyang replied: "Mom, don't worry."
After saying that, the two siblings went out through the back door again.
Li Fenglan untied the reins from the hitching post and said to Chen Ziyang: "Okay, you go back. It's best to stay away from me... I have too much trouble."
Chen Ziyang was puzzled: "You are in so much trouble, why do you still need to reveal your identity to those gangsters of yours?"
"I just wanted to see if they believed it or not. Obviously, they didn't."
Chen Ziyang held his chin and thought for a moment: "Maybe I'm overthinking it. Sister, you have a good way of hiding your kung fu. Apart from the fact that I can see your body skills, I can't see anything else. How did you do it?" ?」
Li Fenglan was speechless: "I'll tell you a secret, I only know light kung fu, not martial arts."
"What?"
Li Fenglan got on his horse and said, "Don't ask too many questions, let's say goodbye...if there is a chance in the future, when all these things are over...forget it, let's talk about it later. Little brother, let's say goodbye like this."
"Wait a minute," Chen Ziyang pulled the reins, "You said you don't know martial arts? Then I don't trust you to leave. If anything happens, my father will blame me."
"Don't worry, I'm very good at martial arts."
Chen Ziyang shook his head like a rattle: "That won't work, you are a weak woman."
Li Fenglan thought for a while and said with a smile: "Well, you take me around Xiangyang. I just want to buy a house to stay. It doesn't have to be too big. I'll live alone anyway."
"Stay here?" Chen Ziyang wondered, "You haven't said why you came to Xiangyang yet."
"Well...it's nothing. I quit the world. I just want to find a quiet place to live alone. I will live in Xiangyang for a few years and then move to another place."
"You said you have nothing to do with Changfeng Tower. Were you just joking?"
"How can it be?"
Chen Ziyang nodded: "That's good, at least it's safer... Sister, do you live in a house where people have died?"
"The price is right, I'll definitely stay here."
"There was an old man living alone on East Street. He died last month. His nephew wanted to sell his house, but other people were unlucky and no one bought it, so the price was very low. It's quite suitable for you to live alone in the hospital."
"Come on, take me there."
