In the suburbs of Fengming County, outside a farmhouse.
A tall and sturdy youth with a strong back and strong waist, surging with battle intent, was currently waving an iron rod in the air. For a moment, the sound of clanging could be heard.
"Mother, I haven't slept enough." In the bedroom next door, a child's tender voice sounded, and it sounded like he was crying. His eyes were dark, obviously caused by long-term insomnia.
"Wah…Wah…!" A baby who had just been coaxed to sleep was woken up by this "shocking thunder" and suddenly cried non-stop. The young woman beside her comforted him while cursing in secret.
"Has the child of the Fenglan family fallen asleep again? What time is it now?" An old man rubbed his forehead and sighed helplessly.
"King! Big! It's sparse!" A beautiful middle-aged woman held a wooden stick in her hand. She was furious as she pointed at the young man who was practicing and shouted word by word.
"How many times have I told you not to disturb others while practicing? Can't you remember?”Seeing that her son was so 'innocent', Mu Fenglan was furious.
"Oh, but mother, didn't you warn me last night that I can't be too tired when I cultivate?”Wang Dashu was still puzzled.
"And then, you want to tell me that the sun is sunrise the east now, right?”Mu Fenglan gritted her teeth in hatred.
"Good morning, Mother!" Wang Dashu did not lose his manners at this moment.
"Dashu, didn't Mother tell you that your cultivation is too loud and the neighbors can't bear it?”Mu Fenglan suddenly lowered her voice and asked in a 'gentle' tone.
"Then why did you only remember what I said last night when you were 'shaking the heavens'?!”No matter how good Mu Fenglan's temper was, she could not endure it anymore. She picked up the wooden stick and rushed over.
"Oh, it's all my fault for having such a bad memory. Eh? Mother, I remember again!" Wang Dashu was pleasantly surprised, completely unaware of what was about to happen.
What did you remember again?" " Bang!" The wooden stick in Mu Fenglan's hand hit Wang Dashu's forehead hard.
"Silly child, why didn't you dodge?”Stunned for a long while, Mu Fenglan's heart ached when she saw the slight bulge on her son's head. She had already thrown the wooden stick to the side.
"Mother, I remember now! You also said that I wasn't allowed to run at that time.”Wang Dashu rubbed his forehead and replied in an aggrieved manner. This was the first time he had thought of so many things. How did it end up like this?
"Mother, what's wrong?" Wang Dashu felt a little strange. This time, it seemed different. Could it be because he didn't run?
"Nothing, silly child. Mother has let you down.”At this moment, Mu Fenglan's heart was filled with regret and no longer had the slightest bit of anger.
"Mother, what happened at home? Why did he suddenly say this? Don't worry, I'll definitely be on the Golden Roll for the Phoenix Feast this time. At that time, we'll be able to have our own house in the inner city.”Wang Dashu said confidently.
According to the Phoenix Banquet's convention, for those who had outstanding results, the Junzhu Manor would reward them with an exclusive courtyard located in the golden area of the inner city. This could also be considered as a gesture of goodwill from those in power to the future young talents. Of course, aristocratic families like the Lin family might not care about this, but for a poor family like Wang Dashu, this reward was enough to change his life.
"Mom, when will dad come back?”Wang Dashu asked carefully.
Mu Fenglan came back to her senses, but she was conflicted. The question just now was the knot in her heart for many years. She had never revealed the true answer to her son. Because she knew in her heart that there would never be a result between them. To be able to have Dashu by his side was already the greatest blessing of the heavens.
"Your father's cultivation is profound and he went to a very far place. Only by diligently cultivating can our family be reunited, understand?”
"En, mother don't worry, I will definitely find father in the future.”Wang Dashu was careless and did not notice the sadness and helplessness in Mu Fenglan's words.
"Also, go to the Crescent Lake tomorrow to cultivate. Remember, remember!" Mu Fenglan suddenly thought of the most important thing and quickly added.
"Oh, I know, I know." Wang Dashu seriously replied to the two " remember " s, which made Mu Fenglan feel at ease.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the new year had passed. The Phoenix Feast was about to begin.
Seeing that dusk was approaching, Lin Xuan ended his cultivation but was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he came to the youth's side.
"Sir, good staff techniques. I'm Lin Xuan. May I ask your name?”Even Lin Xuan was impressed by the youth's determination and immediately wanted to befriend him.
"Are you asking me?" The young man stopped the iron rod in his hand, but he was still a little nervous.
"Ah?" Even with Lin Xuan's composure, he was shocked to the point of dizziness when he heard this. This person was really the best interpretation of his name.
"I am Lin Xuan. I have benefited a lot from Brother Wang's staff technique. I just feel that the strength is a little erratic. After thinking for a long time, I still don't understand its meaning. I wonder if Brother Wang can teach me?”Lin Xuan naturally wouldn't care about such a small matter. Immediately, he reported his name and asked what he was thinking.
"So it's for this! There was no deeper meaning. He had used too much strength these days and didn't have time to recover. The rod didn't listen to him, and he made a fool out of himself.”Wang Dashu laughed and replied in an easygoing manner.
"I see. I happen to have some pills that can replenish qi and blood. If Brother Wang doesn't mind, you can take them.”As the eldest grandson of the Phoenix Cry Sect's sect master, Lin Xuan naturally had a lot of pills on him. This was the right time.
"Uh…I appreciate Brother Lin's good intentions, but I don't think so. Pills are very expensive. To be honest, I've never been willing to buy it.”Wang Dashu was not ignorant. The silver that his mother gave him was enough to cover the expenses of the family for a whole year, but it was only enough to exchange for a few low-grade Mortal Qi Gathering Pills. These days, he had been cultivating with all his might. Even with his bull-like physique, he could not take it anymore. However, how could he easily accept someone else's gift when they were meeting for the first time?
"Brother Wang might not know, but I know a thing or two about alchemy. The pill in my hand is indeed suitable for Brother Wang to consume at this time. Could it be that Brother Wang doesn't trust me?”Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan's opinion of the youth in front of him increased a little. He looked at the Mortal Grade High Rank Origin Recovery Pill in his hand and immediately changed the topic.
"Brother Lin, you know pill dao? This medicine isn't expensive, right? If it's too expensive, I can't afford it.”Wang Dashu was a little shaken. After all, the drifting of Qi-Jin was still extremely uncomfortable for people with his temperament.
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive. If Brother Wang doesn't mind, you can just take it. Don't mention the matter of remuneration again, just take it as a return gift for observing Brother Wang's staff technique just now.”Lin Xuan was extremely accurate in judging people. Such a sincere and honest youth with an excellent temperament was one in ten thousand. Being able to get to know each other today was truly a blessing in life. How could he care about these worldly possessions?
"Thank you, Brother Lin! It's already late, I should hurry back and replenish my elemental energy. The exam is the day after tomorrow.”Wang Dashu tidied up and was about to leave.
"Brother Wang, wait a moment. May I ask if Brother Wang wants to participate in this year's Phoenix Feast?”Lin Xuan thought of Wang Dashu's hard training these days and had some guesses in his heart.
"Yeah, Brother Lin too?" Wang Dashu asked excitedly. Although it was the first time they met, he already treated Lin Xuan as a friend in his heart. This was the first person of the same age who treated him so well since he was young, other than his mother. Wang Dashu was naturally very happy to be able to participate in such a grand event with his friends.
"It just so happens that this one will also be attending the meeting. At that time, I will be able to appreciate Brother Wang's elegance.”Lin Xuan was also very happy that his guess had been confirmed. Although this was the only Phoenix Feast in his life, the strong always hoped to meet their match. It was better to be a hero than a crane in a flock of chickens. A fighting heart was a necessary condition for galloping martial arts.
"Then I wish Brother Lin a smooth pass! I'll go back first. See you at the Phoenix Feast!”Wang Dashu turned around and said goodbye.
The two young men were in high spirits by the side of the Soliciting Moon Lake. They showed their true feelings and admired each other. Although their first meeting was short, neither of them expected that they would play such an important role in each other's lives in the future.
