Chapter 872: It's Me
"Sir is here!"
"It's Mr. Wujiang who is here!"
"Sir!"
......
I don't know who discovered Liu Heng and Wujiang first, and shouted happily, causing a sensation in the entire crowd and gathering one after another.
Staring at the sincere smiling faces, Liu Heng could feel the tension and unnaturalness of Wujiang around him, and it could be seen that he still hadn't crossed the hurdle in his heart.
"Don't worry about me, I just can't walk by myself, come here to rest and rest, and wait for you to go down the mountain together." Liu Heng said with a smile, scattered the crowd again, and sat down in a position with an excellent view to watch them practice bows and arrows.
"This big liar!"
Although his physical condition was bad, Liu Heng's ear power did not decrease too much, and he still heard a familiar cold snort from the noisy voice, who else would it be if it wasn't Yaya?
"I really don't know what kind of ecstasy soup that the liar poured into these guys, and they all treat him as a new gentleman, why are they so easy to deceive?" Yaya was chattering with her female companion, glaring at Liu Heng fiercely from time to time, "You just wait to see a good show, I tell you, soon I will reveal his true face!"
She deliberately lowered her voice, thinking that she could hide it from Liu Heng, obviously not knowing how sharp Liu Heng's ears were. However, hearing this kind of little girl's angry words, Liu Heng laughed at himself, how could he care about her.
The Spring Shooting Competition is the biggest program in the Spring Festival, which involves the hearts of all young boys and girls, so not only did almost all the peers who did not go to work come, but even Zhao Zhongxi, who had just returned to the village for the festival, also came.
He couldn't stand the coaxing of his playmates, and took out his bow and arrow to participate in it. After all, he is a person who is known as the double star in the village with Wujiang, and he attracts special attention as soon as he makes a move, even if Liu Heng is sideways.
It can be clearly seen that he still had some foundation when he was young, but he has not continued to practice after many years, and no matter how good the foundation is, it will be wasted. So he shot an arrow, which could be said to be 108,000 miles away, causing the crowd to be silent for a moment, and the uproar and laughter arose.
This result made Zhao Zhongxi himself shake his head and smile bitterly, and he didn't mind the ridicule and ridicule of his playmates, but he seemed very generous.
"These guys who have never seen the world, if they know that the boss of the Zhao family, you go one step further, it is enough to control things across the sky, and take people's heads thousands of miles away, far better than the bow shooting path they are proud of, I don't know how they will be scared?" Seeing Zhao Zhongxi walking towards this side, Wujiang smiled and played a round for him.
Zhao Zhongxi smiled bitterly, "How can it be as simple as you say, but you, nine times out of ten, will take that step before me." ”
Wujiang still wanted to say something, but he shouted over there, insisting that Wujiang pass on his experience, and Wujiang didn't know how to shirk it, so he had to say to Zhao Zhongxi and Liu Heng, and went quickly.
Seeing that Zhao Zhongxi came to Liu Heng's side on purpose, anyone could see that Zhao Zhongxi wanted to talk to Mr. Bai privately, so he was very knowledgeable, and no one came to disturb him.
"Does Mr. Bai even know how to shoot a bow?"
Although he looked ahead, Zhao Zhongxi asked softly at Liu Heng, and his words still revealed undisguised alienation and hostility.
Liu Heng also didn't look at him, "It's a little dabbling, but if you want to say that you really practice, you have never had it." ”
"I didn't expect Mr. Bai to be humble too. Zhao Zhongxi finally looked sideways, his eyes were sharp, "It seems that Mr. Bai's body is getting better day by day, I don't know when he wants to leave?"
He still pursued this question closely, but this time, Liu Heng did not exchange words again, and was silent for a moment and suddenly smiled faintly, "If nothing else, I will probably leave after the Spring Festival." ”
Zhao Zhongxi was stunned on the spot, just because he had calculated everything, he still didn't expect Liu Heng to give such a direct answer.
"In this way, you must be able to rest assured, right?" Liu Heng asked with a smile.
"Ahh
Zhao Zhongxi was caught off guard, and his thoughts were a little confused, "In the next, in the next, I didn't mean to force Mr. Bai to leave quickly, it's just a question, Mr. Bai doesn't have to be in such a hurry." ”
Liu Heng shook his head, "It's none of your business, you don't have to take it to heart, if you really feel sorry for it, give me your set of bows and arrows." ”
Zhao Zhongxi's mind has never been so dull and confused, and when he heard Liu Heng mention it, he subconsciously sent the bow and arrow to Liu Heng, and then he reacted, and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, I ...... it."
Liu Heng's smile became even thicker, and he gently stroked the bow and arrow in his hand, feeling the feeling of smooth and sturdy, and the words immediately changed, "Compared to this, I want to ask about other things." ”
Zhao Zhongxi finally came to his senses, "Mr. Bai still wants to ask how old he is, right?"
"Nope. ”
Who would have thought that Liu Heng would give an unexpected answer today, as if he had made up his mind not to play cards according to common sense, "Anyway, it's almost gone, and I'm not in a hurry to know the answer to this question, anyway, I can always understand it in a few days." What I want to ask is......"
He paused, and stared sideways at Zhao Zhongxi, "The gladiatorial arena is the same as the Chen family's industry, right?"
Zhao Zhongxi's eyes widened suddenly, and his breathing stopped.
The Chen family is the old employer who employs all the young and strong laborers in many villages, and makes them devote themselves to the great cause of hard labor from generation to generation, and even feel that they are accustomed to it. Although Liu Heng didn't know what level the Chen family was in a Confucian family, since his surname was Chen, it was definitely not a saint family. In Liu Heng's view, as long as it is not a saint family, no matter whether the Chen family is a top-level family, a first-class family or a second-rate family, there is not much difference in essence.
What kind of ugly and powerful person's lies have deceived many villagers, but where can they deceive Liu Heng?
Similarly, for Zhao Zhongxi, who is studying abroad, it is impossible not to know the truth.
"Mr. Bai, who you are, how do you know?" Zhao Zhongxi no longer had the composure he had before, he didn't dare to look at Liu Heng, he looked around nervously, and found that no one was paying attention to the conversation between the two, so he breathed a sigh of relief and asked nervously.
Liu Heng pouted and said: "As long as you have a little understanding of the rivers and lakes, it doesn't seem to be a difficult thing to guess." ”
Zhao Zhongxi's expression changed sharply, and then his face showed pain, "Mr. Bai thinks that he is very hypocritical and ruthless, right?"
Without waiting for Liu Heng to respond, he said to himself, "Yes, don't talk about Mr. Bai, even if it's me, I can't figure it out many times, how did I become what I am today." Knowing the truth and knowing the ugly true face of the Chen family, but letting him continue to harm the village, and putting on an appearance of how much he cares about the village, Mr. Bai must think that I am a hypocrite. ”
"Yes, I'm a hypocrite. Zhao Zhongxi gritted his teeth, and his breathing became heavy, "But what can I do, do I tell the truth to the villagers? But, then? If I don't know the truth, such a life can continue, even if I am oppressed by the Chen family, I can finally live a good life." If we know the truth, the villagers will make a fuss, and the world will be turned upside down!"
"It's upside down! You know?"
Zhao Zhongxi almost roared in a low voice, "I have investigated the relevant past, but the result has ended in the extinction of the entire village, there is no difference, it is just the same excuse. Mr. Bai knows the rivers and lakes, and he must know how powerful Confucianism is and how powerful the Chen family is. ”
Listening to him talk to himself, Liu Heng could feel his pain. Knowing the truth is by no means a good thing for him, but there is a heavy burden that weighs him down, I don't know how long he has been suppressed, but the more he is depressed, the heavier it becomes.
Liu Heng didn't speak, and patted him on the shoulder to show understanding and relief.
And Zhao Zhongxi, as if he had vented a lot of depression that had been suppressed for a long time, took a breath, and finally calmed down, "Tell Mr. Bai to see the joke." ”
"Without that, they are all hard-working people, who will laugh at whom?" Liu Heng laughed.
Zhao Zhongxi let out a long breath, "If you want to solve the dilemma for the village, there is indeed a way, that is, I can be stronger than the Chen family." ”
His eyes flickered, and his edge flashed again, "As long as I can make a name for myself in Confucianism, and even create a momentum no less than that of the Chen family, it is enough to make the Chen family throw a mouse, even if it can't be exchanged for the relief of the village, it can also make the Chen family restrain a lot, this is the only way I can think of." ”
Liu Heng shook his head, "It's easier said than done." ”
"I'm not afraid of difficulties, I'm afraid that there is no hope, as long as there is hope. Zhao Zhongxi smiled, "This thing has inspired me, making me more able to endure hardships and be more studious, and now I have a small reputation in the school, and if it goes on like this, the success will get bigger and bigger, and sooner or later there will be a day of success." Besides, I'm ready, even if it takes my whole life to get the village out of misery in the future, I feel that this life is worth it. ”
Liu Heng looked at his confident and energetic appearance, so he held back everything he wanted to say.
For Zhao Zhongxi, it can only be said that his heart is commendable, but there is one thing wrong, that is, he still has illusions about Confucianism, which is actually quite ridiculous in Liu Heng's opinion.
Although it is rare to be able to go out to study, it will definitely not be a small amount over time. If things really turned out to be as Joong-hee thought, why hadn't he heard of a successful precedent before him?
Looking at the Chen family again, they dared to let people go out to study, so unscrupulous, it was clear that they were not afraid of the risks in this regard. People are not afraid of being discovered at all, and they don't think that going out to study can turn over a lot of storms, and they really haven't been out of the pool, and they have such confidence, which shows how powerful the Chen family is and how deep the water is.
Does Zhao Zhongxi know this?
Maybe you know, you don't know, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Because Liu Heng is in the position of Zhao Zhongxi, if nothing else, there is only this way, and there is no more choice.
"It's enough to have this heart. Liu Heng smiled, relieved, and didn't say anything more.
In the following time, Zhao Zhongxi never mentioned this matter again, and chatted with Liu Heng to pass the time. Liu Heng obviously felt that it was almost obvious, perhaps because of the heartfelt outpouring in front of him, or because Liu Heng was about to leave after the festival, according to Zhongxi's intention and hostility towards his interrogation, it was much lighter.
During this period, Liu Heng chatted with Zhao Zhongxi, while paying attention to a group of guys competing in bow skills, while fiddling with the bows and arrows that Zhao Zhongxi insisted on. Time passed imperceptibly, and in the blink of an eye, the sun was turning westward, and even if there were still many people who were still unsatisfied, they could only pack up their things and go down the mountain.
was sent back to the patriarch's house by a group of people, and after entering the door, Yaya snorted heavily, except for putting the bowl in front of Liu Heng when he brought dinner, he didn't pay attention to him.
The girl's temperament, Liu Heng has never paid much attention to it, after eating and chatting with the old patriarch for a while, he went back to the house, and stayed until the dead of night and quietly went out of the house again, and came to the firewood room again.
This time, Xiao Baipang also didn't give him a good face, and he turned around and left as soon as he saw him coming.
"One more hard day, and I will treat you well in the future!"
Hearing this, Xiao Bai Fat only responded to him with a roll of the eyes, turned over and walked along the huge demon corpse, and disappeared into the wall in a blink of an eye.
"I'm going to roll my eyes, and I don't know who to learn from. Liu Heng muttered, and began to skillfully light the fire and open the stove, cutting out the demon meat into pieces. After the demon meat was put into the pot, he squatted by the stove, but he was not in a hurry to cultivate, or to ration the secret medicine for cultivating "Hundred Hammers", but took out the bow and arrow that he had received during the day and began to compare.
"Speaking of which, the name of "Bow Technique" obviously has a bow word, which clearly has a lot of roots with the way of bows and arrows, and I have never really studied it. Liu Heng sighed, and suddenly looked back, only to realize how many things he had overlooked.
As soon as he mentions "Bow Technique", he can't help but think of someone related to it.
He somehow came back to life, but the old ghost who taught him "Bow Body Technique" didn't know how. Anyway, after using a spell to cut off the connection with the old ghost, the old ghost turned into a roll of bamboo slips again, which had been thrown away by him a long time ago, but woke up to find that somehow, it actually appeared in his arms again.
However, since he woke up, the bamboo slip was as quiet as a dead thing, and his spirit was very weak, and the old ghost did not give him any response, so he didn't even know what the old ghost's condition was now.
This is also the one thing he is most concerned about now.
"It's a good bow!"
"Counting the qi and blood replenished tonight, at the Spring Shooting Tournament tomorrow, you should be able to save enough power for an arrow, right?" Liu Heng tried to open the bow, but because the qi and blood in his body were too lacking now, he didn't dare to really try, so he could only make an estimate, "Anyway, I'm going to leave this village, and there is not much difference between morning and evening, so it's better to help them make up a place by the way." ”
Since he heard about the gladiatorial arena, Liu Heng was ready to take it by himself, as for what gladiatorial arena has to go and never return, how can Liu Heng, who has experienced a lot of strong winds and waves, take it to heart.
Estimating that there shouldn't be much of a problem, he put away his bow and arrows, and was about to light the fire on the other side to start boiling the secret medicine, when he suddenly heard a coquettish sound in his ears.
"Okay, I've finally been caught, right?"
Without looking back, Liu Heng could almost guess what the expression on Yaya's face would be, maybe with pride, maybe with anger, "I just said that in the past two days, I always feel that someone else has touched the pot stove, and today I came to take a look, and it was really you a big liar! You actually took advantage of the night to steal the demon meat sent by the person who repaid the favor, you are also embarrassed! It's shameless!
