“Otherwise, even if they give us more money, our Seven Kills Fist Martial Arts
School would not accept it.”
As soon as this was said, excitement and pride filled the faces of the disciples present.
Their sense of belonging to the Seven Kills Fist Martial Arts School surged to a peak. As for Chen Bi, he rolled his eyes, silently moved the Iron Man away, and brought over a new one.
After that, Chen Bi picked up the cleaning tools again and tirelessly swept the same spot on the ground.
Time gradually passed.
“Chen Pi, change the equipment!”
“My name is not Chen Pi, it’s Chen Bi.”
“Chen Pi, clean this up.”
“My name is not …”
Sunset to the west mountain.
Time slipped by as Chen Bi was ordered around by the disciples of the Seven Kills Fist Martial Arts School.
Until the sky became completely dark.
Chen Bi’s work hours finally ended.
He did not have the qualification to eat at the Seven Kills Fist Martial Arts School canteen, so he could only go to a nearby stir-fry restaurant to buy a box of Yuxiang Shredded Pork Rice, then return to his small room to eat it. Opening the meal box, Chen Bi expressionlessly mixed the rice within.
His face held this expression for the entire day today.
Even when facing the harassment and mockery of the Seven Kills Fist Martial Arts School disciples, his expression did not change.
It seemed as if nothing could make him react.
Ding Ling Ling- –
It was not until a phone call arrived.
Chen Bi took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
[Home]
Seeing the word displayed on the mobile phone screen, Chen Bi couldn’t help but smile subconsciously.
This was the first time his face showed an expression today.
Picking up the phone.
“Hello.”
“Big brother! ! ”
A young girl’s voice came from the other end of the call.
“Little Danggui, why didn’t you go out and play with your friends today? You’ve got time to call me.”
Talking with his sister, Chen Bits voice unconsciously softened.
“Hmph!”
“They’re too childish. I don’t want to play with them!”
Chen Bi smiled.
Even without seeing his sister’s face, he could imagine how arrogant Chen Danggui looked when she said this.
It’s just a pity, that arrogance didn’t last long.
“Ouch, ouch, ouch!”
On the other end of the call, Chen Danggui’s pained cry could be heard.
“You can still speak up!”
“Sooner or later, I will be killed by the anger caused by you two, father and daughter. When will you even be half as sensible as your brother?”
There was a burst of noise, followed by,
A middle-aged woman’s voice came through the phone.
“Chen Bi, I bet you don’t know, that stinky girl Danggui dared to sneak up the mountain late at night a few days ago, and she almost got eaten by a beast that ran out from the deep mountain.”
“If her dad hadn’t gotten worried and gone to check on her during the night, this little girl would have been in big trouble!”
“I would have been fine… with…”
As Chen Bi listened to his mother just finishing speaking, Chen Danggui’s resentful voice came from the side.
But for some unknown reason,
Chen Danggui’s words suddenly stopped, as if she had thought of something.
Chen Bi didn’t notice this detail,
when he learned that his sister had nearly run into danger, he immediately stood up from the ground, spilling the rice from his meal box all over the floor.
Beasts running out of the deep mountain? ‘Mom, what about that beast…?”
Chen Bi asked with a serious expression.
“The village security team searched for a day and couldn’t find it, it probably ran back into the deep mountains.”
“We only found out after asking your sister, that ever since you went to Kyoto to practice martial arts, she has been going to the mountains at night to practice, saying she wants to be as strong as you.”
At these words,
Chen Bi fell silent for a moment, seemingly contemplating something.
After a while, he spoke slowly.
“I see. I’ll ask for leave from the sect, and I’ll come back to the village tomorrow to have a look.”
“Uh, no no no, Danggui is safe after all, I’ll keep an eye on her these two days so she doesn’t go out.”
Chen Bi’s mother refused repeatedly over the phone.
In her opinion, her son’s matters were more important.
“You stay in Kyoto and practice martial arts well, I wasn’t going to tell you about this at all if this little girl didn’t want to call you.”
“Your dad is already watching over things at home.”
“It’s fine, Mom, my progress is quite fast, and our sect leader values me very much.”
“He often advises me to take a break occasionally and not to practice too hard.”
“I’ll take advantage of this trip home to relax a bit.”
Chen Bi glanced at the Yuxiang Shredded Pork Rice beneath his foot.
More than half of it had spilled onto his foot.
As the sauce soaked into his socks, the sticky sensation made Chen Bi very uncomfortable.
“Alright then,”
“Tomorrow I’ll go to the far market to buy vegetables, and I’ll make some dishes you like to eat.”
Although she seemed hesitant, the happiness in Mother Chen’s tone was impossible to conceal.
She kept rambling on about Chen Bi returning, and how she would nurse his body back to full health.
“Yay! Big brother is coming back!”
Even on the other end of the line, his sister’s cheers kept ringing out. From the beginning of the conversation,
Chen Bi’s face, which had been cold year- round, now bore a smile.
He found the life in the city and the Seven Kills Fist Martial Arts School boring, only when talking to his family could he genuinely feel happy.
“Alright, I’ll talk to my master first and tell him I’m going back to the village tomorrow.”
After Mother Chen reminded her son a few more times to be careful on the road, Chen Bi hung up the phone. Putting his phone down,
Chen Bi looked around again.
The smile on his face gradually faded away.
In the dimly lit wooden house, the wiring had long been damaged, so he had to rely on candles and oil lamps for light.
And there was always a musty smell in the room..
