Feeling a pair of big hands lifting him high, Long Ao squeezed out a smile. Although he had expected that his family would be excited about his success, he did not expect that it would be such a complete loss of ecstasy.
The test set by the worshipers this time is not difficult for Long Ao, but for other children, it is more difficult than obtaining fame. If you fail, you will regret a lot. Once you pass, it means a bright future. .
"Hey!" Long Ao could feel someone chasing him from behind quickly without looking back, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"Stop!" Leng sternly sounded.
"Ah, I've seen a horse worship!" A group of villagers accompanying him said respectfully.
"Your name is Long Tian, right?" The person who came was none other than Ma Tianya. After dealing with several other offerings, he immediately caught up with the Long family members who were walking home.
Long Tian was shocked and didn't dare to look up at the person. He immediately lowered his head and nodded in agreement.
At this time, several familiar villagers around also stopped and looked at the horse offering in surprise and respect.
"I have something to talk to Long Tian. It has nothing to do with you and no one else here. Leave quickly." Ma Tianya said coldly.
After the others left, Ma Tianya stared at Long Ao curiously.
"This child's name is Long Ao. He is only 6 years old this year?" Ma Tianya asked as if he was a little disbelieving.
"Yes!" Long Tian was not surprised but overjoyed when he heard the question about the horse offering.
"Are you sure you're only 6 years old?" Ma Tianya still didn't seem to believe it.
"Confirmed without a doubt!" Long Tian said with certainty.
"If he is really only six years old, he is a genius!" Ma Tianya suddenly laughed, and his stern face suddenly burst into a smile, which seemed very sudden.
"You are now under the jurisdiction of Li Feiyang. If I give you a chance to move to the territory under my jurisdiction, will you be willing?" Ma Tianya asked.
"Yes, of course I am willing, but I can't make the decision. This year's rent hasn't been paid yet, so I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the jurisdiction of Li Congfeng." Long Tian said with a bitter smile.
Long Ao looked calmly at the man in black robes in front of him. He was the guy who presided over the test today and was one of the worshipers in the village.
"Humph, as long as you are willing, I will naturally solve Li Gongfeng's affairs. Tonight, you go home and tidy up, and then move to my site tomorrow. I will give you ten acres of land without any taxes. Tomorrow Come find me at my mansion early in the morning." Ma Tianya said coldly.
"Free land, no taxes." Long Ao was shocked and became vigilant. Pies in the sky will not fall for no reason. This is a bit strange.
Everyone in the Long family showed joy. This lofty offering was definitely not just a joke. In this case, it was a leap from tenants to common people. How could the Long family be unhappy
Seeing the Long family's father and son agreeing, Ma Tianya curled up his lips slightly and took out ten taels of silver from his arms, "This is a reward for you. Go back and replenish this boy's health. Don't make your face sallow and thin due to hunger."
After Ma Tianya left, several members of the Long family stared blankly at the money in their hands, speechless for a moment.
"Haha, extraordinary, you have money to marry a wife." Long Ao laughed.
"Ten taels of silver, this horse offering is really generous. Haha, uncle, this is enough for you to marry a wife." Long Ao also said with a smile.
"Bufan, first-year men should get married, and first-year women should get married. In my Long family, there is only Bing'er. If you can also marry a wife and spread your wings, that would be the best." Long Ao said excitedly.
"Father, please stop talking. This money is for Long Ao's health and cannot be spent on other things. Didn't Long Ao say that? He will make a lot of money in the future and marry me a beautiful wife. I'm waiting for that day. Here!" Long Bufan laughed.
Long Ao was speechless as he listened. Although this uncle loved him very much, he was too hard-headed and didn't know how to turn, let alone adapt. He had a stubborn temper and no one could persuade him to do what he decided.
"It seems that I have to work hard to earn more money so that our Long family can get out of poverty and become landlords in the village." Long Ao sighed in his heart.
Three days later, on a cold and windy morning, with white mist still floating in the sky, hundreds of children stood in the center of one of the martial arts training grounds in Lijia Village.
One hundred children were divided into 5 groups. Long Ao was assigned to the strongest group, and Ma Chongfeng was directly responsible.
Among these 20 people, only three are between 6 and 8 years old.
"You have proven your potential. In the future training, if anyone does not work hard, he will be eliminated. Look, there are 80 people over there waiting to fill your vacancies. Not only that, as long as you are your age No more than ten years old. Next year, and the year after, there will be new people added. If the new people are better than you, you will still be eliminated. Therefore, only the strongest 20 people can be placed in the first group. " Ma Gongfeng said coldly.
"Every day from sunrise to sunset is your training time. In the process of practicing martial arts, talent is very important, but the more important thing is diligence. If you can reach the strength of a fourth-level martial artist before the age of 20, then you will have a chance If you become a worshiper of the village, you will have no worries in your life, and even your family will be favored by it.”
The eyes of all the children shone brightly. Worshiping, that is a job where you get paid for doing nothing. These children undoubtedly want to become respected worshippers.
"You are all very young, the youngest is only 6 years old. Therefore, training your strength, speed, and endurance are your tasks this year. Every month, there will be a test, and the last one will be eliminated directly, and the top three will be eliminated. There are rewards. The third place will be awarded 2 taels of silver, the second place will be awarded 5 taels, and the first place will be awarded 10 taels. The rewards are valid every month. As long as you have the strength, you can make enough money now. Your parents have to work for more than a year."
"Wow! The first place reward is 10 taels of silver, and it's once a month. If you get the first place 12 months a year, it doesn't mean you have 120 taels of silver. 120 taels of silver is already considered a small landowner's family." Long There were little stars in his proud eyes. It would be unreasonable not to work hard for this kind of money.
After Ma Tianya handed over the training task, all the children jumped up excitedly and worked extra hard during training. After all, there was a lot of money waiting in front of them.
The so-called training is nothing more than running, strength training, and ability to resist blows. The training methods are similar to those of soldiers on Earth.
Long Ao discovered a problem, that is, the air here was too fresh. When he breathed it in, he always felt a force pouring into his body.
Long Ao was obsessed with martial arts, not to mention that there was money to be made, so Long Ao would not let go of this opportunity.
In the first month, no one expected that Long Ao, who was usually in the middle of the pack in training, suddenly won first place in the test and received a reward of 10 taels of silver.
Some people think that he is lucky, some think that he has good talent. In short, no one thinks that this is Long Ao's strength.
In the second month, the first place was still Long Ao. Although the results were not much different from the second place, this was of course Long Ao deliberately hiding his strength. Otherwise, how could these children be qualified to compete with Long Ao.
"luck!"
"How lucky is this boy this month?"
Three months later, "Monster, just a monster, his body is so good!"
"It's not a monster, it's a genius!" one child retorted.
A year flew by. Whether those children admired Long Ao or were jealous, in short, he became synonymous with genius.
