The snow at the roots of the crops slowly melts into the soil, and the dead trees beside the road regain their green shoots after a winter's rest.

These are all present, and the villagers of Xiaoniu Town, Qingmangguo, announced ~ Spring is coming.

There was a heavy snowfall last year, and the water that turned into this spring is enough for crops to grow, and there is no need to irrigate as usual, and the villagers have a relaxing spring.

This sudden leisure not only did not bring comfort to the villagers, but on the contrary, it brought emptiness after the fact, and the villagers did not live as happy as they imagined.

When the villagers are idle, they will think about the poverty in which they live, which makes them worry that only infinitely exhausting labor can reduce their thoughts and bring them satisfaction.

This year, there is no labor to satisfy them, they fall into the pain of poverty, and suddenly there is a news circulating in Maverick Town~ In the afternoon, the storyteller who ran the rivers and lakes is coming here to tell the story!

After a long leisure time, these villagers have decided to go to listen to books in the afternoon.

........................

"Good ......"

A spring afternoon is not as hot as a summer day. A gentle breeze blows and makes people feel cheerful.

It was this spring afternoon with good weather, and under the stage of Maverick Town, there was a lot of people. The villagers each took their little horses and sat under the stage in a messy manner, listening to books while playing with the villagers around them, so happy.

To say that under this stage, the most conspicuous thing is the nine-year-old Chu Mingzi, standing in a white cloth robe, surrounded by men in black and gray linen shirts, it is difficult to be conspicuous. Looking at his appearance again, although he is still young, his profound facial features show a handsome bottom money.

Especially the straight nose, it is as handsome as a carving, and the profound facial features are easy to give people a cold feeling, but Chu Mingzi's big eyes are smart and cute.

Chu Mingzi held a wooden plate and walked around under the stage. Looking at the scattered copper plates in the wooden plate, Chu Mingzi was not too moved, but said in his heart.

"This money, alas, can I have enough to eat? I'm growing my body! Grandpa also has money and doesn't eat, why do you have to buy these clothes, but he still shouts, appearance reflects status, good clothes play a role, countless, hum!"

Thinking of this, Chu Mingzi turned his head to look at the grandfather standing on the stage, his white hair was neatly combed into a bun, his white beard was as long as his chest, a breeze was blowing, and his clothes were close to his body, revealing his skinny body, which not only made people sigh: What an old man with fairy wind and bones.

Chu Mingzi also had to admit that his grandfather was full of style, but he slandered in his heart: "The Dao body praised by the world is not my grandfather's cultivation, but with me, a grandson who is growing up, he came out hungry, alas!

The story of the fairy family that grandpa was telling was about to end, Chu Mingzi retracted his thoughts, and sped up with a wooden plate, wanting to pass by everyone once, and sometimes someone threw the copper plate to the two, Chu Mingzi was smiling and thanking one person for the reward, when he suddenly heard the voice on the stage stop abruptly.

As soon as he turned around, he saw his grandfather on the stage, squeezing his eyebrows at him, Chu Mingzi couldn't care about collecting money anymore, and ran quickly to the stage with a wooden plate.

This sudden scene made the audience wonder, what had happened? This little boy didn't even want money.

Looking at Chu Mingzi again, at this time, he had put the wooden plate aside, standing beside his grandfather, squinting his eyes slightly, looking at the sky obliquely, and putting his hands behind his back.

Grandpa saw that Chu Mingzi had put on a good posture, smiled knowingly, and woke up and patted: "Fathers and fellow villagers, the gossip has been finished, thank you for your support......"

"Good...... That's good......!

Listening to the endless applause and applause under the stage, Chu Mingzi tensed his body even more, so as not to slack off in his posture.

He has liked it since he was a child, he has been praised by many people, he likes to be in the limelight, although since he was a child, he has changed one dream after another, but the ending of each dream is his attention.

"Grandpa, where are we going next?" Chu Mingzi regretted it after speaking, he had to listen to his grandfather's old routine again.

"Alas, where are we going, where can we go! We don't have a home, we are all over the world, it's a pity! If you were born a few years early, it would be better to be as old as your grandfather, in that case, grandpa can take you to see the immortals, Zhongzhou is everywhere, but it's a pity that grandpa is old, and he can only take you to a remote corner of this bloody continent!" grandpa looked sad.

Chu Mingzi knew since he was a child that the continent he lived in was called the Xueyao Continent, the Xueyao Continent had not yet been fully developed, and the human race only occupied a small part, and the place where he had been talking and staying was a corner of this small part called the Land of a Hundred Kingdoms, and his grandfather also said that there were immortals in his book in this world.

Although he didn't believe what his grandfather said, Chu Mingzi told him in his grandfather's book that the immortals' methods of chasing the moon in the mountains and reclaiming the sea in the mountains fascinated him, and he fantasized that he would become a god who was in the limelight.

The grandfather and grandson have no purpose, and they don't pick the road to go, they spend it if they have money, they tell books if they don't have money, but they are very free and easy!

Chu Mingzi saw the red brick and gold tile city wall, and also saw a golden roof in the city, and they had already walked to the Qingmang Kingdom, outside the gate of the capital.

There is still a distance from the city gate, grandpa stopped and didn't go, his left hand was upside down in his right sleeve, Chu Mingzi saw this, skillfully ran to the side of the road, and tore off two branches from the tree, one thick and one thin, and handed them to grandpa.

At this time, grandpa also pulled out a ball of gray cloth from his sleeve, he spread the gray cloth and fixed it on the thick branches, and then saw that there were four big red characters written on the gray cloth "Glimpse the way of heaven", grandpa handed the thick one to Chu Mingzi, closed his eyes, and held a thin stick in one hand on the ground.

Chu Mingzi was interested, and stepped forward to walk towards the city gate with his grandfather in his arms. He knew that his grandfather was telling stories in small places and fortune telling in big places. According to his reasoning, only rich people can be found in big places, and those who have money are timid and believe in their lives.

Chu Mingzi hugged his grandfather, paid the money to enter the city, and entered the city, the roads in the city can be side by side, three carriages, shops on both sides of the road, and they are undecided, which reflects the word "rich".

This is the first time that Chu Mingzi has entered the capital of a country, although he has followed his grandfather to many countries, but this is the first time he has entered the capital, and he has no money to pay the money to enter the city before, and this time he entered the city because recently, his grandfather told a fortune to a person and made a small fortune.

Chu Mingzi hugged his grandfather and walked around the capital, and suddenly his grandfather opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.

Chu Mingzi wondered, "Grandpa, you have opened your eyes, this piece of people, they have all seen the blind man open his eyes, we have a bad reputation, how can we make money, alas!" He just wanted to make amends, saying how his grandfather's eyes suddenly improved.

As a result, before he could speak, he saw a person flying above the mouth of the sky, who was dressed in golden silk, with a green jade belt on his belt, and a purple and gold clothes floating behind him.

"Knock on the immortals!" For a while, the streets were full of deafening cries, and people knelt down one after another, and some ran out of the shops and knelt down in the street.

Grandpa was stunned for a moment, and also knelt on the ground, Chu Mingzi just looked up, the immortal in the sky.

"It turns out that there are really immortals, as soon as the immortals come out, all living beings worship, I want to be an immortal, and I want to be a public eye. ”

"Kneel down quickly, the immortal will blame you for a while, kneel down quickly!" Grandpa whispered while tugging at the corner of Chu Mingzi's clothes.

"Ah......" Grandpa woke up Chu Mingzi's fantasy.

Chu Mingzi looked around him, they were all kneeling people, and he didn't kneel down because of the gods. The immortal in the sky didn't look down at the beings below, and flew away.

The crowd on the street, also performing their duties, returned to the previous prosperous scene.

"Grandson, do you know how dangerous you were just now? That's because the immortals didn't blame you, otherwise your few lives would not be enough for others to kill. Grandpa looked at Chu Mingzi with an angry face.

"Isn't it nothing! Chu Mingzi shook his grandfather's hand with both hands and said.

Grandpa shook it away angrily, Chu Mingzi's hand, and snorted coldly.

"Grandson, remember, don't attach importance to the sympathy of the strong, because it is just their whim, as a weak person, you must not beg the strong for mercy again and again. The weak either be a dog, or work hard in secret, work hard, before failing to become a strong person, you have to forbear, sometimes groveling to live, than to die bravely, it takes more courage. ”

Chu Mingzi saw his grandfather angry for the first time, and his grandfather at this time made him afraid, but Chu Mingzi raised his head stiffly, looked directly at his grandfather and said: "Grandpa, I have been doing whatever I want since I was a child, why do you want to suppress my heart now, if I don't want to kneel, I won't kneel, I will still act according to my heart in the future, I still have to do what I want." ”

"Okay, okay, my grandson is amazing! My grandson will do whatever he wants in the future. Grandpa suddenly laughed, stretched out his hand and touched Chu Mingzi's head, but sighed in his heart: "Alas! This demonic mind! But, grandson! People always have it, when they are helpless!"

"Well, grandpa, I not only want to do what I want, but more importantly, I want to be in the limelight. ”

.....................

Fenglai Inn in the capital of Qingmangguo, at this time, it was dinner time, and one of them was wearing a red tight-fitting robe, outlining a hot body with a naturally beautiful girl, walking in front of various tables, they were the inn's juniors.

The reason why Fenglai Inn is called Fenglai is because in this store, except for the guests, the rest of the people are all big beauties.

"Sister, I'm going to eat. Chu Mingzi waved at a maid and shouted.

The maid walked slowly with a polite smile on her face, but it gave a sense of distance.

"Sister, I want to tell you a little secret. Chu Mingzi's big eyes narrowed into a crescent moon and smiled brightly.

The maid watched the nine-year-old Chu Mingzi tease herself, coupled with Chu Mingzi's handsome appearance, even she didn't know that her smile had unconsciously disappeared from her sense of distance.

Chu Mingzi whispered in the ear of the maid who had already leaned over: "Beautiful sister, I haven't been weaned yet!"

"Ahem...... "The old man, his health will always be bad, and grandpa keeps coughing."

Chu Mingzi secretly glanced at his grandfather, smiled innocently, scratched his head with his hand, and sat up straight.

The maid looked at Chu Mingzi, and then at the grandfather with a gloomy face, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, and was about to speak: "Little young master......"

"On your side, the best meal, all right, you can go down. A man with a whiteboard mask without any embellishment, sitting next to his grandfather, interrupted the maid in a neutral voice.

Chu Mingzi looked at it, left the back of the maid, and gritted his teeth at the masked man again, thinking: "It's really not a thing, even women are fierce, no wonder you have to wear a mask, it should be faceless to see people!"

"Tomorrow morning, let him wait for me here. The masked man glanced at Chu Mingzi and turned to leave.

In the dead of night, everything is silent, and living beings should fall asleep.

In a guest room of the Kefenglai Inn, Chu Mingzi was holding a blood-red ring and sitting on the bed, with a little teardrop in the corner of his eye.

"Old man, you think I'm annoyed, don't you! Drive me away, okay! I'll go, see who will collect money for you when you tell the story in the future, and who will cover you when you pretend to be blind...... Grandpa, wait for me! I'll go to cultivate immortals, and when I come back, I'll definitely take you to Zhongzhou...... Did my parents leave this ring to me? Where are they?"

"Squeak......

The old windows of the inn let out a scream.

Chu Mingzi jumped out of bed and ran to the window, and saw that the window of his grandfather's house next door was open, and a snow-white figure was flying on the beam in the distance at night.

Swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva with a sour nose, he jumped onto his bed and covered his head with a pillow.

"Hah...... Ha...... I'm free, waiting for me to cultivate immortals, and I'll be watched. ”
