*****************************************
"Ah!" Tang Keying first covered her mouth and whispered softly. There was no surprise in her expression, but instead she showed some disappointment. "Are he going to drive me away..."
"Do you have to ask now? Didn't you say you'll ask tomorrow?"
"What? Don't you want to return your magic weapon?" Although Chu Yu had never known the girl's thoughts just now, there was a hint of clarity when she observed her face, which made her plan to accept disciples even more certain. She immediately shrugged her shoulders and said casually: "After asking the third question, if your answer satisfies me, in addition to returning the black clouds to you, I can also reward you with a good story for free. Of course, you can choose to listen or not."
"Listen, why don't you? Ask quickly. I'm so smart and I will definitely answer the questions you asked very well."
“My third question is – what do you care about in this world?”
Unexpectedly, such an ambiguous question raised from Chu Yu, also greatly touched a painful memory that Tang Keying had been buried deep in his heart.
Eight years ago in Shanghai, Su Tang Group was a well-known family business in the Shanghai business world, with assets of over 100 million yuan and nearly 60 industries of all sizes. It can also be called a famous family.
On the surface, the Su Tang Group is a typical large-scale marriage enterprise, but in the secret, the Tang family and Keying's mother's original family rely on the same cultivation family of the same small sect of cultivation.
As the only precious daughter of Tang Qifeng, president of Su Tang Group, Tang Keying, who was only nine years old at the time, was favored by thousands of people. Not only did she have a father who was powerful in the business world, but she also had a beautiful and gentle mother who loved her grandfather...
When Tang Keying was seven years old, Tang Qifeng began to teach her how to practice. In the next two years, Keying's mother Su Nianru also gave up everything and focused on guiding and educating Tang Keying. In the eyes of her parents, Tang Keying was the best talented person in the Tang family for more than a hundred years. She had to start studying from childhood, and cultivation was no exception. Of course, she also needed to be cultivated from childhood.
This kind of ordinary but happy life was just like this. For Tang Keying, she was already very satisfied. But until that rainy night eight years ago, the girl saw her father jumping down from the top of a hundred-story building, and then her mother stuffed a small bag into the girl's arms. She followed Tang Qifeng's footsteps and leaped over the guardrail and disappeared in front of the girl.
The Tang family's loyal servant took the girl away. As her parents committed suicide one after another, the tragic memories were just the beginning. In the next few days, the girl witnessed the defeat of the entire Su Tang group with her own eyes.
All things in the family were emptied, and the girl was finally driven out of her home where she lived for nine years. At the same time, within these three days, the girl also received the bad news that her grandfather, who loved her the most, died of a heart attack. A nine-year-old child suffered such a huge blow in such a short period of time... The girl vaguely remembered that if Uncle Zhong had not sent her to the hospital in time, her eyes would have been blinded by excessive sadness at the time.
Uncle Zhong became Ke Ying's last support. Under the care of Uncle Zhong, the girl moved into the ancestral house far away in Xiao Kunshan. For two years, the girl had not said a word and almost became a walking corpse. Until Uncle Zhong was overworked and had a high fever, he lay on the bed for two days and two nights. The girl used the money for inspection of soda cans for two days and two days to buy a Chinese medicine. After boiling it, she arrived in front of Uncle Zhong, who was seriously ill and difficult to get out of bed. "Uncle, take a sip of medicine, you must be well. Ke Ying is the only relative, you can't have anything to do..."
In the end, Uncle Zhong still couldn't survive that serious illness. After returning from the west, the eleven-year-old Tang Keying became an orphan. Now, Fang Shiqi has experienced the bitterness of the world. Six years of alone request have also turned her past good girl temperament into the current quirky and rebellious.
Since Tang Qifeng only passed the beginning of the cultivation method to his daughter, even though Tang Keying had excellent talents, he had only been a cultivation level that had not even completed the foundation building over the years. Fortunately, the small bag left to Tang Keying before Su Nianru died was a magic weapon "Black Cloud Screw" inherited by the Su family. The girl had a little mastery of the "Black Dragon Screw" with her childhood memory.
With this first-level magic weapon, the girl can barely make a living by doing some thieves from time to time. It was not something that Tang Keying had sneaked up on the "Yunfei" because the Tang family also participated in the first "Treasure Gathering Club" back then, so a "Treasure Gathering Invitation" would be sent to the Tang family's ancestral house every two years. When the "Treasure Gathering Club" was held in the previous few "Treasure Gathering Clubs", Tang Keying was still young and did not come.
But this time she came alone, thinking that she could get a vote at the conference. The first person she didn't expect was Hua Tianxiong...
The memories gradually blurred, and Tang Keying woke up from the trance, and his eyes were already wet. "...I had a lot of concerns, but when I knew that I didn't have the ability to care and remember, I no longer thought about it..."
After a long time, two tears finally fell from the corner of the girl's eyes. For some reason, she looked at Chu Yu's magical black pupils. Tang Keying saw a pair of eyes that penetrated the world, which was even more gentle and warm. Unconsciously, a feeling of closeness arose.
"No worries..." From when Tang Keying heard the third question, she began to be stunned and responded in tears until she woke up and cried. Chu Yu was always paying attention to the girl's inner suffering through her eyes. Although Chu Yu was not sure what tragic things had happened to Tang Keying, he was sure of one thing, "This child must have lived a very hard life. At the same time, this apprentice was determined to take it himself!"
"sit."
Chu Yu sat on the edge of the bed with a smile, gently patted the empty seat beside him and said, "It's my turn to tell you a story..."
The girl who had just wiped away the tears in her eyes mischievously stuck out her tongue, as if she was hiding her disobedience just now. After hearing what Chu Yu said, she sat obediently next to Chu Yu, turned her head and asked, "The story you told should be wonderful, otherwise, she would have suffered a lot. You saw me embarrassed just now!"
"Haha." Chu Yu smiled unanimously, "I'm afraid the excitement of this story is far beyond your imagination..."
Time passed by minute by minute, and more than three hours were, Chu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief: "...No later, because I met you later."
After Chu Yu's story over the past three hours, Tang Keying became the most loyal listener, one after another, this is the legend of an orphan in the mountains and fields growing into a master. This is the twists and turns of a master-level figure in the Middle Earth cultivation world for more than 300 years. When this story was about to be concluded, Tang Keying was shocked. Because the protagonist in the story failed to pass the tribulation, he almost destroyed both body and spirit. Unfortunately, he left a trace of spiritual consciousness and went thousands of miles to seize the body and reborn in the city. The past three hundred years of hard work have been put to waste, and everything has to be started again.
Chu Yu finished the story for a long time, but just looked at Tang Keying with a smile, without saying a word.
