Crossing, strategy, picking up morals

Chapter 30

"I was wrong..." The red-clothed man kneeling in the ancestral hall had already put on a neat set of white butterfly and red satin narrow jacket, with drooping eyebrows and thin lips, but with a few Very unruly arrogance.

"Wrong? One sentence is wrong and it can be settled?" The man kneeling under the hall raised his head, "It's just a poor beggar. If you die, you will die."

"How many times have I taught you? Help the weak and eradicate the strong, and have kind thoughts in your heart! You have to be superior in life!" The white-clothed man's tone was filled with anger.

"Why should I care about good and evil with a group of animals?" Su Wuyan raised his head and looked directly at the man in white.

"Yellow-mouthed boy, speak wild words." The white-clothed man picked up the twig and whipped it backwards on Su Wuyan's straight back.

Su Wuyan was whipped abruptly and didn't even utter a word.

The white-clothed man whipped three times in a row, Su Wuyan's back was ripped and bloody, and before the fourth whip fell, Su Wuyan, who was kneeling, suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the twig in his palm, his slender peach eyes With a violent feeling, "Su Chenlian, why did you hit me?!"

"Eldest brother is father, I will discipline you on behalf of your parents, you naughty and rebellious son!" The man in white grabbed the thorns and looked at Su Wuyan.

Su Wuyan groaned, threw away the whip in his hand and stood up.

Su Chenlian frowned, "Kneel down!"

"I, Su Weiyan, don't kneel to the sky or the ground. Why do I have to kneel to you, a scoundrel who has been away from home for years!" Su Wanyan spoke sharply, "Su Chenli, before you accuse me, first look at yourself What kind of virtue!"

Su Chenlian's expression remained unchanged, "Kneel down!"

Su Wuyan gave him a sideways look, straightened his clothes, and walked out the door.

"Stubborn!" With a flick of Su Chenli's wrist, the thorn twig wrapped itself around Su Wuyan's ankle like a spirit snake, and he pulled back forcefully. Unprepared, Su Weiyan staggered and fell to Su Chenli At his feet, he was about to get up with one hand on the ground, but Su Chenlian clasped his shoulders and pressed him firmly to the ground.

Su Chenlian stretched out his hand, "The ruler!"

The stunned little beggar was dazed just now, and offered an ebony ruler with both hands.

Su Chenlian raised his hand to take it without looking at it, and the arm pressing down on Su Weiyan became heavier.

"Indulge in lewd pleasures, don't think about making progress!" With a low shout, the ebony ruler fell down immediately, and the muffled sound of hitting the skin made the little beggar beside him flinch.

"Spitting out wild words, disregarding human life!" Su Chenlian dropped the second foot without changing his face, this time the blow was extremely heavy, even though Su Weiyan was full of arrogance, his eyes were reddened immediately.

"Disregarding etiquette, disrespecting elders!" Sanchi followed closely, and Su Wuyan, who was still struggling just now, buried his head and choked up.Su Chenlian grabbed his skirt and said coldly, "Do you know your mistake?"

Su Wuyan's eyes were red, and he paused every word, as if each word was filled with hatred, "Wai, say, know, wrong."

Su Chenlian let go and stood up, his eyes indifferent, "Since I knew I was wrong, I knelt in the ancestral hall and thought about it for three days."

Su Angyan maintained that embarrassing posture and did not move, her fingertips grabbed the sleeves of the clothes, which turned blue and white.

Su Chenlian flicked his sleeves and walked out of the ancestral hall.The little beggar looked at Su Wuyan who was lying on the ground, but Su Wuyan glared at him sharply, "Get lost! Otherwise, the Lord will goug out your dog's eyes!"

The little beggar flinched back, not daring to look any further, and ran out of the ancestral hall with his head down.

……

"Young Master." The maidservant in green bowed to Su Chenlian in a polite manner.

Su Chenlian slightly nodded, "I've been away for two years, has anything happened at home?"

"It's nothing major." The green-clothed maid said, "It's just that the second young master's temper has become more and more weird in the past two years since the eldest young master left home."

Su Chenlian looked down at the celadon teacup in his hand, as if he was thinking about something.

"Young master." The green-clothed maid bit her lip and called out.

Su Chenlian raised his eyes, "Huh?"

"Second young master has suffered a lot these years. The master and wife have passed away, and you, young master, have gone on a trip again. The huge Su Mansion falls entirely on the second young master..." The servant stopped talking, stepped back a few steps and walked away. Li said, "Forgive me for talking too much."

"What you said...is right." Su Chenlian put down the porcelain cup, and sighed very lightly, "It's my fault that he has become like this now."

The servant girl stood aside with her head bowed, "Second Young Master slipped and fell during his outing the day before yesterday, and now Eldest Young Master makes him kneel in the ancestral hall for a few days, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it."

Su Chenlian frowned upon hearing this.

The servant girl knelt down and kowtowed, "I beg Eldest Young Master to spare Second Young Master this time!"

The rhythm of Su Chenlian tapping the stone table with his knuckles sped up slightly.The servant girl knelt at his feet and did not speak again.

"Mr. Su." The little beggar sitting on the side suddenly said, with a bit of embarrassment in his expression, "Second Young Master is not in good health, let's forget about it...Anyway, nothing happened to me anyway."

Su Chenlian's face softened a little, and he cupped his hands, "For this incident, I will apologize to my little friend on behalf of my younger brother. It's me, the elder brother, who didn't discipline me well."

"No, it's okay! The little beggar waved his hands again and again, and after being saluted by Su Chenlian, his expression showed a bit of panic, "Also, my name is not Xiaoyou, but Chi Mo. "

Su Chenlian bent his lips and smiled, "Clear the pond to turn ink into ink, and paint thousands of hectares of lotus. Good name."

Chi Mo couldn't understand, but he knew that this good-looking man was praising his name, so he scratched his head and smiled cautiously.

"Du Ruo, let the second young master out." Su Chenlian said.

The maidservant in green answered 'yes', got up and left.

Su Chenlian turned to look at the little beggar, "Little friend Chi Mo, how about staying for a meal? I have the right to make an apology."

Chi Mo hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"In that case, I will add a pair of bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen." Su Chenli stood up and made a gesture of invitation, "Little friend Chi Mo, take it easy." After saying that, he turned and left, his snow-white robe was caressed by the wind Pull out the big lotus flowers.

"Young master!" Chi Mo almost subconsciously called out to the person who left.

Su Chenlian turned his head, "Huh?"

"I, I..." Chi Mo's tongue was a little unclear. He didn't know what he was going to say, and he didn't even know why he stopped that person, but there was a sentence that came out of him suddenly when he was in a state of confusion. came out of his throat, "Can I worship you as my teacher?"

A look of surprise appeared on Su Chenlian's face.

Chi Mo also immediately understood what he said, and explained in a panic, "I, I want to learn martial arts."

Su Chenlian was slightly stunned and then said, "I am a Taoist teacher, and the martial arts I learn must be free from distracting thoughts and untainted. You are still young and have no self-control..." Seeing Chi Mo's gloomy eyes, Su Chenlian Unable to bear it, he said, "If you are only practicing martial arts, your aptitude is enough. I wonder if you are willing to follow me back to the teacher's school?"

Surprise appeared in Chi Mo's eyes, and he nodded repeatedly, "I am willing!"

"In addition to aptitude, martial arts practice also depends on personal nature. How far you can learn in the future depends on yourself." Su Chenlian said.

Chi Mo bent his knees, knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed to the ground, "Chi Mo pays homage to Master!"

Su Chenlian said, "Follow me back to the teacher's door. If you can pass the test and stay, someone will teach you martial arts. You don't need to call me a master."

Chi Mo raised his head, and his red forehead was exposed, "Then Chi Mo will thank the eldest son for his kindness in rebuilding!"

Su Chenlian laughed dumbly, "Young friend Chi Mo is serious."

Chi Mo pressed against the bluestone wall and was about to kowtow a few more times, but Su Chenlian reached out to hold his arm, "Get up."

Chi Mo stood up suddenly, feeling dizzy in his head, unable to stand upright several times, and was supported by Su Chenlian to barely fall to the ground.

"In a few days, I will leave Su's mansion and return to the teacher's school. If Chi Mo has something to do here, let's set off with me." Su Chenlian's tone remained unchanged.

Chi Mo raised his head, looked at Su Chenlian's face, and was in a daze for a while, before responding after a while.

Seeing that Chi Mo had recovered a bit, Su Chenlian let go of his hand, and stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking at the lotus in the lotus pond, with a cold and inhuman expression.

When Chi Mo recovered from this surprise, when he looked again, there was no trace of the white dress by the pond.
