Late at night, the dark moon hangs and the cool breeze is not dry.
In the Cao family compound, Cao Xing and Cao Su were sitting on the roof.
The hipped roof has a solid structure. The two of them each took a jar of wine, facing the night breeze, drinking and admiring the moon.
Cao Xing smiled slightly: "Asu, how long has it been since we drank like this?"
Cao Su touched the wine jar to him.
"Ding--"
There was a crisp sound in the dark night.
Cao Su asked back: "You don't drink alcohol in the army?"
"In the army, we are in the army, and at home, we must not mix them together."
"Anyway, I often drink in the army. Although I have never drank with you, there are too many brothers to count."
Cao Xing:..........
Cao Xing always had something on his mind. The two of them drank, but they still hesitated.
He sighed and asked, "Asu, what are your ambitions?"
ambition?
Such a profound topic made Cao Su think deeply.
After a long silence, he replied: "The world is so big, I want to see it."
Cao Xing was stunned. He thought that Cao Su would say that he wanted to be the strongest warrior, wanted to protect the family, wanted to be a high official in the court, etc. But he didn't expect that Cao Su's ambition was that he just wanted to see it?
What kind of ambition is this?
"What ambitions do you have?" Cao Su looked at Cao Xing.
Cao Xing hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I want my parents and Aluan to have enough food and clothing, enjoy glory and wealth, and become true masters."
Simple ambition is worthy of respect.
Cao Su said smoothly: "Me too."
Cao Xing smiled: "I know Asu's filial piety."
He raised the wine jar, and the two touched it gently.
There was a moment of silence.
Cao Su suddenly said: "So how are you going to do this?"
Cao Xingdao: "Of course we should work hard to practice martial arts to gain strong strength."
"If you have strength, you have everything."
Cao Su glanced at Cao Xing. Cao Xing's energy and blood were surging. He seemed to have reached the third level of energy and blood. His progress was very significant, but compared with him, there was still a big gap.
How strong can this martial arts talent be in the future?
He didn't have the nerve to point him out, so he picked up the wine jar and touched it.
But I have to say that Cao Xing’s idea is correct.
In this world, strength is respected, and no matter what kind of strength you have, you must first have this thing.
Cao Xing looked at this younger brother. Compared to the thin one a few months ago, the younger brother was now strong and tall. His true talent in martial arts was much higher than his. He was just lucky.
He couldn't help but asked tentatively: "Asu, if you come with me, I can make you stronger."
Cao Su was stunned. He had only heard this kind of talk about making big cakes from Wei Tao.
"What are you capable of?"
Cao Su asked directly.
Cao Xing:..........
"Can't say it clearly."
Cao Su was dissatisfied and said: "What the hell is that?"
"Young man, don't be so angry."
Cao Xing said in a deep voice: "You are not at a high level now. It is useless to tell you. It will only increase your troubles. You only need to know that your brother and I are already on my lap."
It's not a good idea to talk about selling your butt, right?
Cao Su sneered: "Foreign martial alliance?"
Cao Xing laughed, a little embarrassed.
"It turns out you also know."
Cao Su asked in a deep voice, "Are you in there?"
"Deputy leader."
"Cao...then Chen Zhen..."
"It's my fellow senior brother..."
Cao Su fell silent. Being in the same sect with such an insidious person would be very dangerous...
Since the topic of the Foreign Martial Arts Alliance and Chen Zhen came up, Cao Xing simply opened the door and spoke openly: "Have you already had contact with Chen Zhen?"
"Of course, otherwise how would I know about the foreign military alliance?"
"The Foreign Martial Arts Alliance is not as strict as you think. It is just a very ordinary organization. I am the deputy alliance leader, and Chen Zhen is the alliance leader. We use this alliance to obtain information, so as to establish a relationship within our sect.
, in exchange for the cultivation materials we need."
Cao Su said in confusion: "In that case, the two of you should have a competitive relationship."
Cao Xing nodded: "You are right. Chen Zhen and I are indeed in a competitive relationship, but I am just a newcomer who has just started. There is a protection period. Chen Zhen cannot touch me. Once the protection period exceeds, Chen Zhen can also touch me.
."
A trace of solemnity flashed in Cao Su's eyes. What kind of ghost sect is this? Can the disciples still fight with each other?
Cao Xingdao: "Chen Zhen is about to become an inner disciple, but he still lacks some prerequisites. He wants to get something from me, but due to the sect rules, there is no way to deal with me directly."
"We all belong to the outer disciples of the sect. The outer disciples can compete with each other in a certain area. In the end, there will only be one disciple left in a certain area, and that is the person in charge of this area."
Cao Su listened, and the more he heard about this sect, the more strange he felt.
"Where's the name of the sect? Can't you just tell me and that's it?"
Cao Xing was silent for a while, but still shook his head and insisted: "When I entered the school, I made an oath not to tell anyone the name of the sect. Even though you are my younger brother, I can't violate the sect rules. I can only tell you that our sect
Its power is huge, far exceeding any power in Pingcheng."
Cao Su:..........
"Then what if I kill Chen Zhen?"
Cao Su asked tentatively. He felt that there would be a battle between him and Chen Zhen sooner or later.
Cao Xing whispered: "I heard that Chen Zhen's popularity in the sect is average, but he has a master in the Xuan realm and is the first-class elder in the sect. If you kill Chen Zhen, you must not expose yourself."
, to avoid unexpected events.”
Cao Su was speechless. The rules of this sect were so weird. It didn't matter if the disciples of the sect killed each other, but it didn't matter if they were killed by outsiders.
"You just heard about it?"
"Yes, I heard."
"I haven't been a beginner for long. In the future, after I learn my skills in this sect, I will become the most powerful person. When the time comes, let Chen Zhen go as far as he can, and you will feel at ease."
Cao Xing's ambition may also include part of Cao Su's safety.
But when Cao Su heard what he said, he always felt that it was not very reliable: "Others are already close to the inside, and you have just started. Can you catch up?"
Cao Xing said solemnly: "I have a treasure that can help me make rapid progress."
treasure?
Cao Su narrowed his eyes slightly. What treasure would make Cao Xing so confident?
"Is it because of the treasure that you were accepted by your sect?"
Cao Su questioned Cao Xing's reliance on external forces.
Cao Xing understood Cao Su's mentality very well.
A master like Cao Su, who relies on his own talent step by step to become a master of strength, is very confident in his own talent, and relatively despises "geniuses" who rely on external forces. Perhaps in the eyes of people like Cao Su, this kind of reliance
External forces are all "fake geniuses".
Cao Xing couldn't explain his treasure too much.
His treasures are bound to his own destiny, and when they are prosperous, they are both prosperous, and when they are lost, they are both damaged.
You may not see much effect in the early stages, but after reaching the power realm, the treasure can really make him soar into the sky.
Cao Xing paused, pondered and then replied: "The only ones who know that I have a treasure are you, Chen Zhen and my master. Chen Zhen will not tell anyone else. He wants to take my treasure for himself."
"The reason why I was able to join the sect is because my master accepted me as his disciple. The master is the elder of the inner sect in the sect, and he is also a figure at the Xuan Realm level."
Cao Su hesitated and said, "Your master... doesn't he covet your treasure?"
"My treasure has long been bound to my destiny. There is no heavenly secret atlas and no specific period to separate me from my treasure. What's more, the master has already entered the mysterious realm. The treasure is useless to him, but for
As far as the entire sect is concerned, having me means having great luck."
Cao Su was confused when he heard this and didn't quite understand.
But he silently remembered some key words in his heart.
Cao Xing's mouth went dry as he spoke, and he finally invited: "Asu, what do you think? Do you think I will be stronger than you in the future? Why don't you follow me and let me protect you."
Cao Su immediately shook his head without hesitation: "I told you before, I want to go and see everywhere."
"You have your opportunities, and I have my persistence."
"At least for now, I am much stronger than you. I hope you can defeat me one day in the future, and then I will seriously consider what you say."
Cao Xing didn't expect that even after he talked for a long time, Cao Su was still as stubborn as a bull.
It is difficult for him to grasp this younger brother's thoughts.
I can only say that my younger brother is too good. If he were a little mediocre, he might have followed his ideas long ago.
Now, the two seem to have embarked on different paths unconsciously.
Cao Xing's future path is very clear. He feels that once he steps into the realm of strength, he will immediately soar into the sky and become famous in the world and powerful in the martial arts world.
As for Cao Su, it seemed that he had no intention of seeking hegemony in his heart.
"Don't think so much, just drink. This world is still Qianyuan's world. When you wake up tomorrow morning, the sun will still rise as usual."
Cao Su picked up the wine jar and saluted Cao Xing.
Cao Xing was startled and then laughed.
Cao Su's words made him feel relieved a lot.
"Yes, drink, don't think so much!"
"Asu, you are still free and easy."
Cao Su drank several sips of wine in a row, burped and said, "I just hope I don't come to this world in vain. The key depends on how big your heart is."
"There are too many beautiful things in life worth pursuing. If your heart is fettered, your life will be fettered."
"For example, if you look at the flags of the wine shop in front of you, are they moving?"
Cao Xing followed Cao Su's finger and looked forward. There was a flag at the door of a wine shop outside the street, trembling slightly in the wind.
He puzzled and said: "Yes, it was blown by the wind."
Cao Su smiled.
He shook his head and said: "It's not the wind that's moving, it's not the flags that are moving, it's your heart that's moving."
After hearing this, Cao Xing's expression changed drastically.
The whole person was frozen on the roof, his brows furrowed, as if he was deep in thought.
