"Doggie!" There was a clear voice.
Zuo Xiaoduo, who was in a daze as he recalled the dream, slowly regained his focus. He then gloomily covered his head with the blanket.
"Doggie …" The voice came again. It was long and cheerful, proving that the owner of the voice was very happy at the moment.
However, Zuo Xiaoduo was very unhappy.
Because the name "Doggie" was for him. No one would be happy to be called "Doggie".
However, Zuo Xiaoduo couldn't be angry right now.
He didn't dare to be angry.
He didn't know how many names he had already had.
Yes, that's right. The person who was calling him was his mother. Would he dare to be angry?
There was only helplessness.
From his mother and father, ever since Zuo Xiaoduo could remember, his name was as numerous as the sand in the vast Yangtze River and the stars in the endless Milky Way.
Moreover, his name depended on his parents' moods.
When they were in a good mood, they would call him Doggie, Doggie, Kitty, Mimi, Little Egg, Little Darling, Little Darling … whatever came to mind.
When they were in a bad mood, they would call him Xiao Duo in a very serious manner.
When they were in a bad mood, especially when he provoked them, they would call him Little Bastard, Little Bastard, Little Bastard, Little Coward, Little Red Guy, Little Debt Collector, Little Heartless … There was even more.
Moreover, they would call him in different dialects.
Zuo Xiaoduo sometimes found it strange. His parents were so knowledgeable. They knew all the dialects from the South to the North, from the East to the West, and they used them to scold him …
The way he addressed his parents was a barometer of his guess about their mood.
For example, calling him Doggie meant that his mother was in a good mood. Since she was in a good mood, she wouldn't get angry easily. Therefore, it didn't matter if he didn't agree to it.
…
I have to guess if I'm going to get beaten up by the name I'm being called … It's too difficult.
Zuo Xiaoduo lay on the bed and sighed silently.
Calling him Dogda Dogda Dogda Dogda was still acceptable. The problem was that Zuo Xiaoduo was also extremely dissatisfied with his current name!
Xiao Duo?
Listen, what kind of name is that?
Not domineering at all!
For example, there was a classmate named Zhao Jianghu! How heroic? There's also someone called Li Chang Tian. Just hearing him sounds awesome!
But his own name …
Furthermore, that day …
His dad drank a little too much and was in a good mood. Hence, Zuo Xiaoduo boldly asked, "Why is my name Xiaoduo?" Can't you give me a better name?
At that time, his father had looked at him from the corner of his eyes with a look of disdain. He had said resolutely, "No!"
"Why?"
"No reason! I can't change my name! "
"Then why is he called Xiao Duo? Can you tell me?"
At that time, his father snorted and rolled his eyes. He said indifferently, "Because your birth is a little Xiao to your mother and me."
…
Xiao's extra = Xiao Duo?!
Zuo Xiaoduo felt that his heart was like the string of ellipses above.
Could it be that the two of you think that my birth ruined your two person world?
Am I that unnecessary?
Which family wouldn't be overjoyed to have a bloodline inheritance? Especially when I'm the leader. Why is it unnecessary when it comes to you two?
At that time, Zuo Xiaoduo asked tearfully, "Do you dislike me so much?"
His father took a sip of wine and said slowly …
Well, there's a need to mention here. Xiao Duo's father was very gentle, elegant, and handsome. He looked like a handsome man in a chaotic world. Other than being a little lazy, he didn't have any flaws …
His father said slowly, "At first, I didn't like it. Later, your mother realized that after having you, she actually had a fun toy … She realized that having a child is quite fun, so she played with him … Slowly, she didn't dislike him that much …"
Toy!
Hearing these two words, Zuo Xiaoduo received a critical blow and immediately shut himself up.
You two gave birth to a toy!
His mother said eloquently, "Isn't having a child for fun? Just like your Auntie Li's cat or your Auntie Wang's dog. No matter what it is, you have to have a toy, right?
What you said makes sense. "
I was speechless.
The conversation that night ended here.
Zuo Xiaoduo felt that he had no interest in asking anything else. He went back to his room with a wounded heart.
Zuo Xiaoduo felt that it was all thanks to his big heart.
He felt that he might be too open-minded. He actually didn't take such a serious blow to heart and still heartlessly endured it. And the most miraculous thing was that after that night, he actually felt relieved. No, to be exact, before that night was over, he felt relieved.
Sigh, I'm just a toy … A toy, so be it …
In this world, who isn't someone's toy?
But, can't I change my name?
…
"Damn it!"
A roar came from the door. His mother pushed the door open angrily, "Didn't you hear me?! Are you deaf? "
Zuo Xiao Duo bounced up from the bed with a 'duang' and said with a flattering face, "I heard you, I heard you. I was just about to go help you with your work … I'm coming …"
At the door, there was a beautiful woman who looked like she was only 27 or 28 years old. She was Zuo Xiaoduo's mother.
His biological mother!
When most people saw Zuo Xiaoduo's mother for the first time, it was inevitable that they would admire her and let their imagination run wild. The beautiful woman in front of them looked so gentle and virtuous. She must be a good wife and mother with a good temper and outstanding talent.
But only Zuo Xiaoduo knew that this gentle and virtuous wife and mother in the eyes of others was terrible and horrible to her biological son.
Zuo Xiaoduo had lived in the shadow of his mother for 17 years. Now, it had developed to the point where he would stand at attention reflexively when he heard his mother's roar.
As long as that gentle and virtuous beautiful face was serious, Zuo Xiaoduo would feel his buttocks twitching — because it was accompanied by a delicious meal of bamboo shoots fried with meat.
She would not show any mercy to him.
In an ordinary family, it was basically a strict father and a loving mother. But in Zuo Xiaoduo's family, it was the opposite: a strict mother and a loving father.
A loving father … In fact, it was not very kind, or it was more appropriate to say that he was indifferent and heartless. But a strict mother was really strict!
In fact, Zuo Xiaoduo couldn't figure it out. So many years had passed, but there was no trace left on his mother's face.
She was still so young and beautiful.
Of course, his father was the same. He looked 26 or 27 years old, but he was definitely not more than 30 years old. He was handsome and elegant, and people would have a good impression of him at first sight. They would think that he was a learned person like a scholar.
But in fact …
Hehe.
…
"Help me with work?" His mother's face was full of doubt, "Son of a b * tch, when did you become so filial?"
Zuo Xiaoduo jumped up and massaged his mother's shoulders attentively, "Oh, mother is so tired every day. I can't bear to see it. Let me give you a massage …"
Wu Yuting squinted and enjoyed her son's massage. She said comfortably, "You want money? No! Let me tell you, Zuo Xiaoduo, your pocket money for this month has been spent in advance. If you want to take money from me, you'd better give up. "
Zuo Xiaoduo immediately stopped and said with a sobbing tone, "You are really my biological mother … You are too cruel. I haven't even said anything …"
Wu Yuting rolled her eyes and felt like a young girl. She curled her lips and said, "You came out of my belly. How can I not know what you are thinking?"
Zuo Xiaoduo was dejected.
"Don't even think about asking your father for money!"
Zuo Xiaoduo was grief-stricken.
"Don't even think about asking your Sister Nian for money! I will remind them. Who dares to give you money? Try it! This is the first time I have heard of asking for money for a dream. Zuo Xiaoduo, your reason is also strange. "
Zuo Xiaoduo was completely disheartened. He felt that there was nothing left to live for in this world! He begged,
"Mother! I have something important to do! I really have something important to do! "
Wu Yuting snorted disdainfully, "As a seventeen year old who is still a Martial Disciple, and a Primary Martial Disciple at that. Moreover, a Primary Martial Disciple who has been a Primary Martial Disciple for five years … Moreover, a Primary Martial Disciple who can sleep fourteen hours a day for five years … What kind of business can he have?"
Zuo Xiaoduo covered his heart with tears in his eyes, "Mother, I feel like my heart has been hurt …"
"You still have a heart?"
Wu Yuting snorted and turned away, "Hurry up and help me pick the vegetables. Your father and Sister Nian will be back soon … Your father will take a nap after eating, and Sister Nian will meditate and prepare to break through the Yin Yang Realm … You can't not rest well at this juncture … Hurry up, if you dawdle again, I will break your legs!"
Mother snorted, "Two!"
Zuo Xiaoduo kept quiet out of fear … and hurriedly followed with his tail between his legs.
"Mother, you leave them all, I will do it, I will do it all!"
…
While picking the vegetables, Zuo Xiaoduo sighed and rolled his eyes.
Is there any way to cheat some money from my mother? No, coax some money out of her? I don't need a lot, just three thousand, no, two thousand is fine, or even one thousand and five hundred … is fine!
That way, he would be able to test whether or not this strange dream of his was real. Did that world really exist?
Is this really a dream?
Have I really been a scammer in that world for so many years … Uh, a fortune teller?
"Money … You're the eternal resentment in my heart …"
…
Noon.
The living room was filled with the aroma of food.
The door creaked, and a voice said, "Smells good! Looks like I have to drink something today. "Then, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked in.
He was tall, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was handsome and confident, and his hair was as black as ink. His fitted clothes made his figure look even more elegant. He wore shiny black leather shoes, and his face was calm and gentle.
It was Zuo Xiaoduo's father, Zuo Changlu.
He was known as the Zuo Changlu who had a long road under his feet.
"Is Nian not back yet?"
Zuo Changlu asked as a matter of routine. In fact, he knew that his daughter would come back fifteen minutes later than him every day. Everyone's sense of time was very accurate, and there was basically no mistake. If she missed this time, she would not come back for dinner.
Then, he sat down at the dining table and said with a smile, "Ting 'er, I found that thing for Nian."
Wu Yuting walked out, wiping her hands, and said in surprise, "You found it? How much did you spend? "
"Just a little." Zuo Changlu smiled, "Don't worry about it."
Zuo Xiaoduo's eyes lit up like a light bulb. Money?!
"Oh." Wu Yuting smiled gently, "Okay, I'll be so happy when Nian comes back."
Zuo Xiaoduo was in the kitchen pouring soup. He listened carefully and pouted, "You bought a gift for my sister again, but there's nothing for me … If there is something for me, I'll convert it into money …"
"What are you happy about?" A quiet voice came quietly. There was a soft sound at the door, as if someone was changing into slippers. Then, a girl in a blue dress walked in.
Her slender and delicate figure was about 1.7 meters tall. She was slightly on the thin side, but her figure was slender. Her long hair was soft and smooth, and her face was tranquil. Her pair of beautiful eyes were like two small, limpid pools … Her entire person was like a pure lotus flower, untainted by the mortal world.
Anyone who saw this girl would have the same feeling: This girl is so clean and pure! Then, they would be filled with amazement!
This girl seemed to have a natural temperament that made people who saw her calm down involuntarily. In the face of such a beauty, they could not even think of blasphemy. They could only admire her!
It was Zuo Xiaoduo's sister, Zuo Xiaonian.
"Daddy came back a long time ago." Zuo Xiaonian's quiet face warmed up. She looked around and asked, "Doggy is not home?"
Zuo Xiaoduo roared angrily in the kitchen, "Don't call me doggy!"
Zuo Xiaonian chuckled. This chuckle added a little girlish charm to her. She suddenly became lively. She rolled her eyes and said, "What can you do if I call you doggy? Doggy! Doggy! Haha … "
Zuo Xiaoduo rushed out with a ladle, but Wu Yuting twisted his ear. "Are you rebelling?"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch …" Zuo Xiaoduo tilted his head, his face twisted. "Mom! Your favoritism is too obvious, isn't it? I am your son too! Your biological son! "
Zuo Xiaoduo could never understand his mother's ear-twisting skill.
How did his mother practice it? No matter how fast he was, as long as she wanted to twist his ear when he passed by her, she would never miss!
She could twist his ear with a stretch of her hand, and she could even twist it!
"Biased? Hmph, I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about bias. "
Wu Yuting snorted coldly.
Was this not considered biased? Zuo Xiaoduo tilted his head and saw Zuo Xiaonian twisting his ear, then making a face at him …
This kind of girlish gesture could only be seen in her own home. Outsiders would never see it.
…
During the meal, Zuo Xiaoduo finally understood what it meant to be biased.
"Xiao Nian," Zuo Changlu said calmly as he ate, "How confident are you in breaking through the Yin Yang Realm this time?"
Zuo Xiaonian subconsciously straightened her body and said respectfully, "It should be fine. I will break through in the Martial Arts Academy's Astral Power Room. I have enough Astral Power. I have also prepared a lot of elixirs and a few star beast cores. Also, the place is heavily guarded. The instructors of the Martial Arts Academy are responsible for guarding it. My master and a few others are also guarding it. Nothing will happen. "
Zuo Changlu nodded and said, "As long as you know what you are doing." As he spoke, he took out a Small, exquisite box from his pocket and put it on the table. He pushed it forward and said, "Take it. If you can use it, don't be stingy. If you don't need it, keep it for yourself."
Zuo Xiaonian nodded and opened the box. Suddenly, she exclaimed and covered her mouth. Her eyes were filled with disbelief and shock. "Life Origin Pill?! Father, this … this … "
She was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Zuo Xiaoduo was also shocked. His eyes lit up as he looked at the box. There was a pill in the box. One side of it was pure black, emitting a faint light. The other side was pure white, emitting a lustrous white light. The pill was placed in the box, motionless. However, the black and white colors seemed to be circulating naturally, constantly rotating.
It was the holy medicine for warriors, the Life Origin Pill!
Warriors under the Dan Origin Stage could instantly replenish all their Life Origin Qi after taking one pill! Therefore, there was a saying that "one pill is one life".
It was perfect for Zuo Xiaonian to use in his attempt to break through the Yin Yang Realm. Normally, when a martial artist tried to break through the Yin Yang Realm, they would be exhausted. With this pill, it was equivalent to having an extra life.
Zuo Changlu smiled faintly. "Take it!"
"This …" Zuo Xiaonian's face gradually calmed down. She held the box in her hand and asked softly, "This Life Origin Pill is worth one million. Father, where did you get so much money? Besides … this thing, even if you have money, there is no market for it. The black market has already reached five million. A lot of people are waiting for it. How did you get it? If the price is too high, we don't want it. "
One million.
Zuo Xiaoduo was shocked.
One million Star Origin Coins!
It was enough for a family to live comfortably for the rest of their lives … Old Master … spent it just like that?
Zuo Xiaonian's beautiful face showed a trace of anxiety. "I am really confident. I don't need this."
Zuo Changlu said decisively, "I told you to take it, so take it! What are you talking about?! Is the family's money something you should worry about? "
His voice was very strict.
Zuo Xiaonian's eyes reddened. Her slender fingers held the Life Origin Pill, faintly trembling. After a long time, she said softly, "Yes. I was wrong. "
Zuo Changlu's voice softened. "That's right! "Little Nian, you have a great future ahead of you. After the Yin Yang Realm, you will enter the Origin Core Realm, and then the other realms … Your mother and I can't help you much, but you are my daughter. We will help you as much as we can." When there is nothing else we can do, you can leave by yourself. Before that, don't worry too much. Do you understand? "
Zuo Xiaonian was silent for a moment and said, "Father, if I can successfully break through to the Dan Origin Stage this time, I will be satisfied. I don't want to go any further … This road is really tiring! I feel that I can't stand it. After this breakthrough, I will wait until Xiao Duo is twenty years old. I want to marry Xiao Duo at that time … "
Zuo Xiaoduo's eyes widened in shock.
Then, she heard her parents coldly shout at the same time, "Nonsense!"
"Shut up!"
Zuo Xiaonian was about to cry. "Father!"
Zuo Changlu's indifferent expression completely disappeared.
He put down his chopsticks, sat up straight, and said solemnly, "You, Zuo Xiaonian, are my daughter. Although you are not my biological daughter, your mother and I have raised you since you were an infant. You are no different from our biological daughter."
"You are our daughter! Not our family's child bride! "
"When you were eight or nine years old, your mother said nonsense. She said it would be great if you could marry Xiao Duo and the family would never be separated … That was just a joke. I didn't expect you to remember it until now."
"But …" Zuo Zhanglu spoke slowly, but his tone was unquestionable. "If you dare to say that again, I will break your legs!"
