Low Key Star

   Chapter 25 [025] The Great Hero

  After Zhang Yang finished speaking, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren in the air shed all stared at him.

  Zhang Shouyi frowned and said, "You wrote it? What?"

  The old man stopped talking, picked up the first page that he had read long ago and put it aside, and continued to read the second page.

   Zhang Shouyi held the watermelon in one hand, and picked up the first page that the old man had put down with the other. He only read the description at the beginning of the article, then raised his head and stared at his son in surprise, "You wrote it?"

   Zhang Yang nodded.

Zhang Shouyi stopped talking, and carefully read the first page, Fang Qianxue reached out to take it, Zhang Wei also wanted to read it, but didn't dare to **** it from his mother, so he stood behind his mother with his mouth pouted, and followed along. .

  Fang Qianxue was originally surprised by the fuss made by her father-in-law and husband, but after reading the first paragraph of the description, she raised her head in astonishment just like Zhang Shouyi.

   Zhang Yang nodded helplessly at his mother, "I have been excellent since I was a child, and it's not just now that I am a blockbuster. You don't need this expression, do you?"

After all, Zhang Wei is young, so he doesn't have a deep feeling for the sophistication between the lines in the novel, and even feels that he has no literary talent. On the contrary, he is not as shocked as his parents and grandpa. Hearing that his brother is upset again, he rolled his eyes and said: "Then you are so self-proclaimed, cheeky!"

  The old man read it for more than an hour at a stretch. During this period, his uncle Zhang Shouxin and his family came over one after another. After Zhang Wei's initial surprise, he lost interest in this novel: What's so good about the novel written by his brother?

Some apples and peaches in the orchard have been picked and sold, but there are still some that were unripe or missed. When Zhang Yang and Zhang Wei usually come, they like to go to the orchard to pick up leaks. Abandoning his elder brother very shamelessly, he went to pick up leaks with his cousin Zhang Yu.

  Fang Qianxue didn't have time to finish the first episode, so her sister-in-law Wang Yaqin came over to chat with her, and the two went to prepare lunch together.

  Zhang Yang was dragged by his uncle to the main room first to play chess with him.

  The old man loves Go, and his level is fair. He used to live in the urban area, and he could still find chess friends. After moving here, he can only abuse his son.

  Zhang Shouxin doesn’t have the old man’s spare time. He has no time to study and has no interest. He was abused for several years purely out of filial piety. After accidentally discovering that the old man is not good at chess, he immediately fell in love with chess.

  The daily routine of the father and son playing chess is basically, Zhang Shouxin loses Go and says we can play chess if we are capable, and I will let you play;

In this life, Zhang Shouyi's hobbies are more inclined to his uncle, because he needs to play and study Go, and he doesn't have so much free time, so he can talk to his uncle very well—Zhang Shouyi has no choice, and every time he comes, he will be abused by the old man for two games , Sometimes when I lose badly, I let my daughter-in-law come to avenge myself.

  Fang Qianxue doesn't really like Go, but her level is extremely high. The first time she met her in-laws back then, she relied on this move to torture the old man's skeptical life. Since then, she has won her mother-in-law's approval and love.

Lunch was ready quickly. Seeing that his bicycle was no match for his nephew's horses, Zhang Shouxin immediately got up and asked his father and second brother to have dinner. When he walked outside the shed, he saw that the old man and Zhang Shouyi were still in the same posture as they were more than an hour ago, like It didn't even move.

   Zhang Shou looked faster than the old man, so he basically had to wait. After the old man finished reading one piece, he took one.

  Zhang Shouxin yelled twice, and the father and son who were immersed in the world of martial arts couldn't extricate themselves before they got up, but judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they hadn't recovered yet. Zhang Shouyi was okay and knew how to talk to his younger brother, while the old man seemed to be described as devastated.

Zhang Shouxin already knew that they were reading a novel written by Zhang Yang, so he became more and more curious about the situation. Before he had time to ask, the old man let out a long breath and sighed with a complicated expression: "I didn't expect it. The martial arts, I only know today that martial arts can write like this... This is the real chivalry!"

As far as the writing is concerned, even if this "Shooting the Condor" is so old-fashioned that it is impossible to imagine it was written by a high school student, the old man is just surprised and confident that he is not inferior, but the content and structure are far beyond his reach .

  Zhang Shouyi smiled and said, "No matter how powerful he is, he is still your grandson. You taught him well."

  The old man shook his head and sighed again, "I can't teach... I can't teach it, I can't write it myself, how can I teach it?"

   Zhang Shouxin looked at the stack of papers in his second brother's hand, and finally couldn't help asking: "This... written by Zhang Yang, is it so good?"

  Zhang Shouyi didn't know what to say for a while, the old man was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "It's hard to say, if you can keep writing at this level..."

  The old man paused for a moment, and then said under the watchful eyes of his two sons: "Maybe...reform the old martial arts, and start a school first."

  Zhang Shouyi, even after watching Shooting the Condors, was shocked by his father's evaluation. Although martial arts novels have never been recognized by traditional literature, as popular literature, its influence and market are undeniable.

  For Zhang Shouyi, the old man’s achievements back then were already at the pinnacle, but listening to his words, it seems that Zhang Yang’s future is not limited to this, and he may change the status quo of the entire martial arts novel by himself.

  How old is he?

  The three of them washed their hands and went into the main room to sit down. Zhang Shouxin called Zhang Yang who was chatting with his mother and aunt at the kitchen door to come over.

  The old man took the main seat, picked up the wine glass that Zhang Shouxin had just put in front of him, took a sip, and then asked Zhang Yang, "How did you remember to write this?"

   Zhang Yang put a peanut in his mouth, chewed it and replied: "I wanted to write it a long time ago, but I haven't had time. I was hospitalized a while ago, so I tried to write it... Can I submit it?"

  The old man didn't answer, but asked again: "You write martial arts, what do you understand by chivalry?"

  Zhang Wei and Zhang Yugang sat down at the table, and when the old man asked this question, they all looked at it curiously.

Zhang Yang thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, the definition of chivalry has been changing all the time. In ancient times, "xia" could even be compared with "holy". He lived in the temple as a saint, and retreated to the rivers and lakes as a chivalrous man. But this is not what we mean today. The hero mentioned above. The Xia in our current impression refers to the knight. "

   Zhang Yang's opening surprised the old man. Although it was just a start, just like the opening chapter of "Shooting the Condors", the pattern of momentum is already evident.

  Zhang Shouyi also looked at his son in surprise, Zhang Shouxin, Zhang Yu and Zhang Wei didn't think so much, they just thought it sounded quite powerful.

Zhang Yang continued: "In the beginning, chivalrous men were not welcome. Han Feizi said that Confucianism used literature to disrupt the law, and chivalry used martial arts to violate the law. At this time, chivalrous men were excluded. In the Tang and Song Dynasties, Nie Yinniang appeared in the legendary story books. Characters like Kong Konger and Kong Konger, in Zhou Zhou's novels, the image of martial arts is further established, basically they are chivalrous, fighting against violence and Anliang, etc. Today's martial arts novels basically fall into this category, but in order to make the story more vivid Wonderful, and added a lot of arena and gang plots."

  While speaking, Wang Yaqin and Fang Qianxue came in one after the other, Zhang Yang leaned towards the old man, and Wang Yaqin asked, "What are you talking about?"

   "Zhang Yang wrote a novel."

  Zhang Shouxin said something briefly, signaling to his wife not to interrupt.

  The old man also said: "You eat yours, you continue to talk."

   Zhang Yang knows that writing such a novel at his age is not easy to be accepted, otherwise he would not want to make such a long speech in front of his elders, just to prove his understanding, "But in my opinion, these are all "Xiaoxia". "

   These words included the original works of the old man. The old man seemed to say "oh", showing a little scrutiny, staring at this grandson who had placed high hopes on him since he was a child, "Listen to this, there are heroes?"

   Zhang Yang let out a "hmm" and said, "A great chivalrous man serves the country and the people."

  The old man chewed on these eight words, recalling what he had seen in the previous episodes of Shooting the Condors.
