I am a shooter
Chapter 30: Lao Zhang's Past
After successfully completing the sect's contribution mission, Ning Shu returned to the right track of cultivation. The day also came to the refresh day of the first year of Yunluo, which was equivalent to the Yunluo New Year.
Therefore, many disciples of the sect returned to their families a few days ago to reunite with their family members. Qingyi also returned to the Liao family yesterday, leaving only the master and his disciple in the entire Diyin Mountain.
The two men were practicing swordplay in the square on the top of the mountain today. Two figures, one big and one small, were moving quickly in the square, and the sound of long swords clashing could be heard from everywhere from time to time.
Liao Qingxuan held a knife in one hand and had the other hand behind his back. He was mostly on the defensive, occasionally attacking with the knife to hone his Ning Shu knife skills.
Ning Shu held the knife in both hands and attacked her master with full force, but they were all easily resolved by Liao Qingxuan. Occasionally, a knife swung from her master's hand was enough for her to use all her strength to resist or avoid it.
Half a day later, Ning Shu collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, and shouted:
"I can't do it anymore. Master is too powerful."
Seeing this, Liao Qingxuan smiled, put away the knife and came to Ning Shu, squatted down and stretched out her hand, trying to pull Ning Shu up. At this moment, Ning Shu became naughty, followed her hand, and directly hung on her, hugged Liao Qingxuan, and said:
"Master, should we go find father and celebrate the Yunluo New Year together?"
However, the expected response did not come. Instead, Liao Qingxuan showed an embarrassed expression and replied:
"Shu'er, don't mention this matter again."
Ning Shu was a little disappointed, but still asked in confusion:
"Master, why is this?"
Liao Qingxuan pondered for a moment, and said as if he had made up his mind:
"Do you know what happened to Xiaohan in the past?"
Ning Shu shook his head, and Liao Qingxuan spoke again:
"It seems that Xiaohan doesn't want to add pressure to you. He is still such a warm person!"
When Liao Qingxuan talked about gentleness, she actually smiled.
Ning Shu looked at his master, waiting for the next content. At this moment, Liao Qingxuan slowly opened his mouth and continued:
"Your father, Zhang Mohan, was born into a family of doctors - the Zhang family, and is also the son of the head of the family. The Zhang family almost monopolizes the production of all pills in Yunluo Country, so the Zhang family is very rich, and the head of the family has many wives. Xiaohan's mother is the fifth wife of the head of the family. Although Xiaohan is the eighth in age, his talent in medicine is the strongest among the younger generation of the family. I remember when my father took me to the Zhang family when I was a child, the head of the family personally introduced him to my father and said that Xiaohan is expected to take over the position of head of the family in the future."
When Liao Qingxuan said this, the scene of the little boy feeding her medicine appeared in her mind again. However, the memory soon turned to the sad part. At this moment, she continued:
"When Xiaohan was thirteen years old, something happened that completely changed his life!"
"That year, my father received an emergency call from the border. When he arrived, there were many wounded soldiers, so he sent a message to the head of the Zhang family to bring a large number of medical personnel to the front line to help with treatment. And in the second month after the head of the Zhang family left, an accident happened!"
"Xiao Han's mother was assigned to lead the group in making healing pills, but something went wrong when they were making the medicine. Several different healing herbs were mixed together, producing a special poison. Due to the intense war and the great medical pressure, a large number of pills needed to be prepared in the rear, and the toxicity was caused by the mixing of the herbs. When Xiao Han's mother found out, she had already fainted from the poison!"
"When Xiaohan found out, he rushed to his mother's side, and he immediately started investigating."
When Ning Shu heard that Lao Zhang's mother was poisoned, her heart was squeezed tight! But Liao Qingxuan stopped talking here, as if recalling:
"After he got into trouble, when I found him, he refused to tell me anything and just said that he had missed everything. Seeing him like this, I secretly investigated and found out the whole story. I also found out why he was so obsessed with using poison to treat his illness and why he had to hide."
Liao Qingxuan seemed to be lost in memories, took a deep breath, and then said:
"After Xiaohan's investigation, he analyzed the mixed herbs and found out that someone had framed him. I also found out that Xiaohan was too talented and had been publicly selected by the patriarch to be trained as an heir. The patriarch's actions had put Xiaohan at the forefront of the storm, directly endangering his brothers."
"But at that time, he didn't care about anything else and began to frantically test drugs on people. However, he was soon used by someone with ulterior motives. Several other ladies in the clan immediately made trouble, but there were still several elders in the clan who were the confidants of the head of the family. In the end, the two groups of people discussed and decided to stop Xiaohan first, locked his feet with cold iron, and locked Xiaohan up."
"However, the imprisoned Xiaohan did not give up. He tested the drug on himself and almost poisoned himself to death. However, God finally rewarded those who worked hard. In the end, Xiaohan found a way to detoxify himself and made the antidote."
"Unfortunately, no matter how Xiaohan shouted or how he knocked on the doors and windows, no one answered him! Although his legs were locked and he could not move, for the sake of his mother's life, he decisively cut off his own feet and escaped when the guards were lax. But when Xiaohan crawled to his mother, his mother had already passed away!"
"At that time, he was frantically using his spiritual power to stuff the antidote pill into his mother's throat. The guards followed the blood trail and when they arrived, they saw him like a demon, feeding the pills he made to his mother's corpse. When several ladies and elders arrived, they heard the guards say, 'The young master has gone mad and poisoned his mother. When they arrived, the fifth lady had already died!' Xiaohan, who was pulled away, sat on the ground, bleeding from his legs, and hitting his head frantically."
"The ladies locked him up again on the charge of poisoning his biological mother, waiting for the patriarch to come back and make the final decision! During the entire process, Xiaohan did not resist at all, as if he had lost his soul. I think he really didn't want to live at that time!"
"Xiao Han refused to eat or drink in the place where he was imprisoned, and was determined to die. Therefore, he was taken away that night, and the scene was disguised to make it look like he was 'fleeing from the crime'. He did not resist during the whole process."
"When they took him to a mass grave, they were about to kill him, but he was saved by the Yin Yang Sect leader who passed by and was taken to the Yin Yang Sect. The Zhang family leader who rushed back after hearing the news was furious and thought Xiao Han had been bewitched by a cult. He directly announced that Xiao Han would be removed from the Zhang family."
"But those people with ulterior motives still didn't let him go and still arranged for someone to kill him."
"But at that time, the leader of the Yin-Yang Cult was extremely powerful, and no one dared to go, so Xiaohan survived."
"Later, I asked him what cheered him up, but he just said that Yin and Yang taught him hope."
"But now that the Yin Yang Sect has been destroyed, and the Zhang family also knows that Xiaohan is not dead, the ladies have begun to take action again."
"So Shu'er, your father told me that if you don't reach the Jugong period, he won't let you return to the Poison Barrier Valley, and he won't come to see you! But when we communicated some time ago, he told me that he is safe now, and has made a breakthrough in poison medicine. Especially when he knew that you promised the sect master, he said he would work harder. Xiaohan also told me that he doesn't want to be a burden to you in the future, and hopes that he can be your helper in the future!"
"He said that this was his first time being a father and he had to be a good father!"
When Ning Shu heard this, her face was already covered with tears. A complex emotion surged in her heart, instantly occupying her whole body. A pain came from the depths of her soul, and she could only cry loudly without control.
She never thought that her father, who was usually positive and optimistic, had experienced so many things, and she never thought that Lao Zhang's leg was broken in this way! She had asked him many times before, but every time he smiled and changed the subject, never mentioning it at all.
But! Even with such suffering, even with such difficulties, my father still thinks about me, with the strength not to hold me back, with the responsibility of being a father, working hard and moving forward!
Then what was the point of me lying on the ground pretending to be tired just now!
Self-blame, sadness, sorrow, heartache, anger and other emotions intertwined together, making Ning Shu feel difficult to breathe. She kept screaming in her heart:
Father, at this moment your Shuer really wants to hug you and tell you that you still have me!
Father, Shu'er was wrong. I will not slack off anymore. Shu'er will always be your daughter!
But I was still so naive, and even blamed you in my heart, why didn't you come to visit me, and just leave me here and not care about me! It turned out that my thoughts were so ridiculous, I didn't know anything about my father, I didn't know how he spent his days, and I didn't know what he would face in the future!
Ning Shu, Ning Shu, it's ridiculous that she still claims to have some talent, and gets carried away with a little encouragement and praise! She becomes lax! She slows down her practice, and always thinks she is already very good. Little does she know that the safety and growth time she enjoys now are exchanged by her father risking his life to bring her to see the master, by the master's unreserved dedication, and by the blessing of heaven that saved her from death several times!
How can I enjoy myself so peacefully? I have died once, but I still don’t understand! I am still so naive! I use the sincerity of the people I love to tiptoe, but I don’t know it!
At this moment, Ning Shu in Liao Qingxuan's arms was crying heartbreakingly, and Liao Qingxuan also hugged Ning Shu. In fact, she had been struggling for a long time about whether to tell Ning Shu, but since Ning Shu brought up the topic today, she felt that the time was right, so she decided to tell Ning Shu about it.
The crying sound echoed in the square on the top of the mountain, echoing and drifting away, until the crying sound suddenly stopped!
Liao Qingxuan hugged Ning Shu and called out:
"Shu'er, Shu'er..."
At this moment, Liao Qingxuan saw a trace of blood oozing from the corner of Ning Shu's mouth, and felt extremely remorseful, so he sent a stream of spiritual power to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu's condition seemed like he was possessed, but in fact it was the result of an intense mental self-attack!
At this time, the wind and clouds were also surging in Ning Shu's sea of qi. The two groups of spiritual energy mist were shaking violently, and the spiritual pool was boiling, as if on the verge of collapse. As Liao Qingxuan's spiritual power was sent in, the two flowers in the sea of qi rose rapidly, the branches crossed, and the flowers also bloomed and grew larger, entering the spiritual energy mist. The two flowers, one black and one white, fell into the spiritual energy mist, stabilizing the entire sea of qi. At this moment, looking down, you can see a complete Tai Chi pattern.
