retaliate

Chapter 2 Like the human world, two worlds
"It's Yang Xuan!"

someone exclaimed.

Yang Ding and his wife looked at each other, and the disappointment flashed away.

"Yang Xuan has hit a tiger!" Someone shouted.

The eyes of Yang Ding and his wife lit up, and they rushed out in unison.

"Get rich!"

Yang Ding's family surrounded the tiger, and Yang Xuan was squeezed to the periphery.

He was so hungry that he glanced at his mother Wang.

"The marriage of Dalang and Erlang has come to an end."

Wang Shi clapped his hands ecstatically.

Yang Xuan entered the kitchen slowly, found a piece of dry biscuit, squatted beside the stove, leaned back against the stove mouth, and chewed on the residual warmth of the ashes in the stove.

The cold wind was blowing outside, and his body remained motionless.

There was a wisp of hot air behind him, but it was as cold as frost in front of him.

Just like the human room.

"Sauro!"

The woman who spoke good words for him came in. Seeing him squatting and nibbling on dry biscuits, she sighed, "Are you starving? Why don't you get some prey and bake it on the mountain?"

Yang Xuan raised his head and smiled, "I'm young and I'm not afraid of hunger."

Yang Ding's voice came from outside, "This tiger's skin is just an arrow, and it can be exchanged for big money. Mingfu promised to give benefits, Shiro was only nine years old, and then he asked Mingfu to let him study, and the old Yang family will also send a scholar. ."

There was pride in Wang's voice, "If this fierce tiger is delayed for another half a day, this tiger's waist will be broken. Hurry up and cut it open and send it to Mingfu."

"You came here in a hurry because you were hungry for the tiger's waist?" The woman looked at Yang Xuan, her lips squirming, "Your parents...don't be angry."

Yang Xuan said calmly, "I'm not angry."

The dry biscuits that had just reached his throat were stuck there, Yang Xuan picked up the water ladle and took a sip of water and swallowed it.

The cold well water froze all the way down his throat.

The woman persuaded for a while, and finally left with a sigh.

Yang Xuan ate the dry biscuits and went to the backyard to wash.

Whoa!

A basin of water was poured down from the head, and Yang Xuan's thin body turned slightly red.

He unconsciously rubbed the base of his thigh, where there was a birthmark he had carried since he was a child, like a bird.People in the village would be very unscrupulous when making jokes. Men and women all had indescribable eccentric smiles when they mentioned birds, which made the young man embarrassed to say that he had a birthmark of a bird.

Going up, there are more than ten scars on the thin chest and abdomen, and the deepest one is drawn obliquely from the left chest to the lower abdomen on the right side, which is very deep.It was a memorial left to Yang Xuan by a leopard pretending to be dead when he was 11 years old.He was raised in the mountains for more than ten days, but fortunately the exercises he practiced since childhood helped him escape.

That exercise was given by Yang Lue, saying that it would make him live to be a hundred years old.

Yang Lue...

Yang Xuan's eyes darkened.

From the beginning of the record, Yang Lue appeared in his bedroom from time to time at night, quietly took him outside the village, taught him literacy, as well as practice and weapons.

He didn't know who Yang Lue belonged to, but Yang Lue refused to say.When he was five years old, Yang Lue asked him to ask Yang Ding and his wife, saying that he wanted to study.But he was reprimanded by Yang Ding and Wang Shi, and the reading matter was over, and finally Yang Lue started to teach him.

This made Yang Xuan a little confused. He even thought that Yang Lue was his father, but Yang Lue didn't even allow him to call him his uncle.

Five years later, when he was ten years old, Yang Lue suddenly disappeared, interrupting Yang Xuan's various speculations.

"Missing a woman?"

I don't know when there is a middle-aged man with a majestic figure and thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of him, but his eyebrows are cold, like the cold wind on the top of Dongyu Mountain.

"Yang Lue!" Yang Xuan took a step forward in ecstasy, and then subconsciously grabbed the clothes.

Yang Lue's eyes swept across the scars on his chest and abdomen, and the coldness between his eyebrows became more intense.

"Who did it?"

A murderous intention suddenly appeared, Yang Lue's clothes swelled without wind, the window lattice on the opposite side rattled, and the door moved slightly.

The window sills shattered violently, and the debris fell to the ground silently.

Yang Xuan looked down at his chest and abdomen. He knew that Yang Lue had cultivated well, and he should be similar to the bad handsome in the county. Otherwise, he would not have been able to take him out of the Yang family's fence without a sound.

"Accidentally made it."

The door was noisy again, Yang Ding and Wang Shi were talking about the marriage of the eldest and the second, and that the fourth would be able to go to Chang'an Imperial Examination, the middle-ranking scholar...

But Yang Xuan was not included in all the arrangements.

"How did you spend the past five years?" Hearing those words outside, Yang Lue knew that the young man in front of him had suffered a lot during the five years he was away.

Yang Xuan wanted to tell the situation in the past few years. He looked at the well. There was a deep groove pulled out by the rope on the edge of the well. Every time he saw this groove, he felt warm.When he was six years old, he fell ill, and Yang Lue happened to be away. The doctor said that he wanted to soak in hot water. He heard Yang Ding fetching water in the backyard in a daze, and Mrs. Wang yelled at Yang Dalang to make a fire... That eager voice made him never know before. of peace of mind.He wiped his hair and looked calm, "That's how it went."

What is this kid covering?Yang slightly hesitated, "You are not their child."

Yang Xuan, who was getting dressed, froze for a moment, "Have you been drinking? I'll get you a cup of hot tea, but the tea leaves are rough and don't have those spices, so don't dislike it."

"I haven't had a drink in the past 15 years." Yang didn't move a little, the coldness between his brows seemed to freeze, and he felt more and more correct in what he said.

Yang Lue's impression on Yang Xuan since he was a child is that he speaks like a mountain and never lies.

"You lied to me!" He trembled: "Then... whose child am I? Yours?"

There was even more hope in his eyes.

Yes, Yang Lue is definitely a little unspeakable, so he gave me to the Yang family to raise me.Or... am I his illegitimate child?His wife didn't allow me to enter, so he sent me here.

Yang Lue shook his head, "You are my friend's child. Your parents went there when you were less than one year old. I took you to Xiaohe Village in Yuanzhou and gave Yang Ding and his wife a thousand dollars, and then every year after that. His five hundred money is enough for their family to live, and to support you by the way."

"People who are bought with money will also betray for money... I underestimate the human heart."

Yang Xuan is not stupid, even very smart.He immediately figured out why his parents were so indifferent to him, and even abused him.

Five years ago, Yang Lue disappeared, and the annual five hundred money also disappeared.

"Where have you been in the past five years?" Yang Xuan asked, his voice hoarse and mixed feelings in his heart.

There was some movement outside, and Yang Lue said lightly: "Five years ago, I had something to do. I came back this time to give you a kiss."

say pro?

"I'm only fifteen." When the country was founded, in order to fill the world's population lost due to war, Datang encouraged marriage at a young age, and the age of marriage has been raised repeatedly since then.

Yang Lue shook his head, "It's inconvenient for me to stay here for a long time. Before leaving, I must arrange everything for you. That little lady is the daughter of a scholar, but..."

He thought of the attitude of Yang Ding and his wife towards Yang Xuan, and the murderous intention became more and more intense, "You can go to Chang'an after you get married, and you don't have to come back after that. I will visit you in due course."

Yang Xuan felt a mess in his mind, and he tried hard to dispel those thoughts, knowing that Yang Lue must have something to hide.

Yang Lue took out a document, "This is the pass, you keep it."

He had to pass through the village Zheng, but Zhang Qiyuan did not mention this. It can be seen that this must be a forgery by Yang Lue. Yang Xuan wondered if Yang Lue was a thief from Jiangyang?Or a ranger who likes to peep at women's baths... Otherwise, where would such methods be?

"I'll invite a matchmaker later."

Yang Lue felt a little regretful and felt that it was too early to say kiss.But he refused to make a blunder to Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan didn't pay attention to this, "Yang Lue, that exercise..."

Yang Lue frowned, "That exercise was left to you by your father, and it is said to be the most stable."

Stability also often means mediocrity.

Yang Lue looked at Yang Xuan with complicated eyes.

When someone came, Yang Lue felt a lot more relaxed and flew away.

"I want to get something from the mountains. Are there good hunters in the village?"

Outside the village, Yang Lue, who had used some means to disguise herself, wandered to the side of the canal and found a village woman washing clothes.The two copper coins fell on the dirty clothes, and the woman picked it up, lest he would regret it, and hurriedly said: "Yes! What do you want to beat?"

Yang Lue was surprised, "Can you still choose?"

The woman looked at him and suddenly laughed, "Yes!"

"Who?" Yang Lue asked.

The woman beat her back with her backhand, "Yang Saburo."

"That's still a teenager!" Yang Lue clenched his fists, thinking of the scars on Yang Xuan's chest and abdomen.

The woman shook her head, "His parents are cruel! At the age of ten, he beat and scolded Yang Sanlang, forcing him to work, otherwise he would not be given food. But what can he do at the age of ten? There are only so many jobs in the fields. Then Yang Saburo carried a bow and arrow and a long knife into the mountain. How tall was he at that time? I still remember that the scabbard was hanging down on the ground, and he dragged it away. He walked like this... all the way back and wiped his tears. Then later , I have never seen that child cry."

……

Yang Xuan returned to his room dazedly, opened a wooden box, and took out a burden.

There are some sundries inside, all left by Yang Lue.

At this moment, it seems that this is what the parents left to themselves.

He took out a scroll and skillfully pressed the button.

"Ding!"

A small dot flashed green light, and Yang Xuan was a little excited, "I have it."

He pressed a few buttons, and the sound kept switching.

"Pop song..."

"Prehistoric Classical Music..."

Yang Xuan pouted, "These are the hardest things to hear."

He pressed the button again.

"economics……"

A young girl's voice came, and Yang Xuan hesitated for a while. He didn't want to hear this today, so he pressed the button again.

"Solar storms will affect the safety of satellites, and will interfere with the communication between the space carrier and the ground within the range..."

Yang Xuan sat on the ground with his hands on his knees, as if he was hugging the whole world...

After half an hour, the green light turned red.

The girl's voice was hurried, "Insufficient battery, automatic shutdown... Insufficient battery, automatic shutdown..."

The sound gradually faded away.

Yang Xuan sat on the ground in a daze.

Outside, the Yang Ding family was ecstatic.

Inside and outside seem to be two worlds.
