Chapter 1 The Mujia Church
Songwu Castle is a medium-sized city under the Southern Cao Kingdom.
The materials produced are not much, and the local families are also lackluster.
However, this city has risen to the top of its reputation in the Nancao Kingdom because of an immortal mountain in the southeast. This immortal mountain is called Sanqing Mountain. Because there is a Sanqing Pavilion on the top of Baizhang Mountain.
Legend has it that in ancient times, there was an immortal who passed by here, and saw that the surrounding of Sanqing Mountain faintly appeared to be surrounded by mountains and waters, and the dragon raised its head.
Thousands of years later, when the ancestors of Sanqing heard this legend and had an epiphany on the monasticism, they began to establish a sect on the peak of Sanqing Mountain, and built a Sanqing Pavilion that has been passed down to this day.
It is not known whether the ancestors of the Sanqing Dynasty found the spiritual treasures left by the immortals, but these anecdotes have been passed down by word of mouth by the big families in the surrounding areas.
In order to continuously increase its own strength, the Sanqing Pavilion decided to select ten descendants in the surrounding area every fifty years.
The second day of the second month of the second month of the Mandate of Heaven 321 is the big day for the Sanqing Pavilion to accept disciples in the 50th year.
In order to welcome the arrival of this big day, Mu Xici, who has reached the age of seven, must eat fasting with several brothers and sisters who are about the same age, burn incense and pray to the heavens, and bless himself to stand out in the general election of the disciples of the Sanqing Pavilion.
In the Silence Hall, several children kneel on a futon and pray. A voice broke the silence as it drew to a close.
"It's boring. People with extraordinary talents like me still need to do this? Some people, who can't see how many pounds and taels they have, are just a waste of firewood, and they are still embarrassed here. The boy in the lake blue brocade robe got up and squinted at the girl in green in front of him.
The girl still knelt quietly on the futon, silent.
"Pretend to be dumb, don't you, I tell you to pretend!" the boy widened his eyes and neatly kicked the futon at his feet into the girl's face. "Mu Xici, how many times have I taught you a lesson. How do you talk to Young Master Ben?"
With a "snap", the defenseless Mu Xici was beaten by the futon. The stinging pain on her face and the flying ash on her head finally made her frown. Falling down the futon, she lowered her head slightly and covered her eyelids with the fine bangs on her forehead: "Yes." What Young Master Tian said was right. ”
"Exit early, don't get in the way of Young Master Ben's eyes anymore. The young man's pink face was extremely tight, and he raised his chin high and looked down at Mu Xici, his eyes full of disgust and disdain.
Mu Xicheng on the side hurriedly got up and kicked the futon on Mu Xici's thin body again: "Young Master Tian, why bother with the same waste girl." She's something, you can kill her with a touch of a finger. You just have to kick her and shout at the little one. Do you still need to get your shoes dirty?"
Mu Xicheng, who nodded and bowed, made Mu Xitian a lot more happy. glanced at the embarrassed Mu Xici again, and walked out proudly with his head held high.
After a few people left, Mu Xiyue, who was shrinking to the side, opened a pair of watery eyes, came to Mu Xici's side and whispered, "Sister Xici, are you okay?" He...... They're just going too far. ”
Mu Xici shook his head, got up and said, "I'm fine." ”
"Don't hurry up and clean up! Do you really think you're the eldest lady?" The servant who swept the floor swept all the ashes at his feet to Mu Xici and the others with a broom. Throwing the broom in his hand, the servant found a chair in the corner, crossed his legs and sat down.
Mu Xiyue was so frightened that she shrank aside. Mu Xici choked on the ashes and turned around and patted her hand gently: "Sister Xiyue, don't be afraid, I'll come." As he spoke, he skillfully picked up the futons on the ground one by one, arranged them into a neat stack, and then took a broom to sweep away the huge silent hall one by one.
Back in the house, Mu Xici patted the ash on his body. After checking that it was correct, he sat on a stool and poured himself a cup of bitter tea.
Do the math, it's been a year since her soul entered this body.
The previous owner of the body died of drowning a year ago. However, since the child's parents were both dead, and there was no other reliance in the family, the drowning matter was suppressed by the patriarch under the pretext. It didn't take long for "Mu Xici" to "live" again after losing his breath, and of course this matter was even more unresolved.
This episode did not affect the family's treatment of Mu Xici at all, she is still the nominal Miss Mu family, but in fact she is not even as good as a servant.
Fortunately, there is also a mother who has served by her side since she was a child, otherwise her life would be a little more difficult.
I thought I would continue like this until I was ordered to get married at the age of thirteen and dedicate my last bit of value to the family. Fortunately, God still remembered her and gave her a way out.
Through the general election of the disciples of the Sanqing Pavilion, she can justifiably leave this Mu family!
As a materialist, Mu Xici did not believe that people could become immortals. But she didn't want to be trapped in the Quartet for the rest of her life, and cultivation was the only way she had to fight.
She used the excuse of helping the little maid sweep and organize the library, and finally got the opportunity to peek at the books in the library. Taking advantage of the noon break, she simply flipped through the books related to monasticism by herself.
The Mu family's library, she took a lot of effort to get into this one. There are really only a handful of books about cultivating immortals in it. From the scattered collection of books, it can be known that the cultivation of immortals in this world is determined by three aspects. Talent, cultivation and chance, all three are indispensable.
Talent needs to be learned through the special test of Sanqing Pavilion, and this Mu Xici can't do anything, so he can only hope that this body itself is a good seedling. Cultivation requires comprehension and patience, which is obviously quite competitive based on her experience at the age of twenty-two in her previous life. As for chance, it's still far from her current age.
"Knock-knock-" The unique bell of the Mu family rang. Mu Xici woke up from his contemplation, looked at the sky outside, quickly pushed open the door of the house, and walked quickly towards the main hall of the Mu family.
The road to the main hall of the Mu family, Mu Xici is very familiar. But the number of times she actually went in was less than the books about cultivating immortals in the library.
After entering the main hall, she walked quickly to Mu Xiyue's side and stood up. Hang your head as far as you can, looking at your nose and nose and your heart.
Mu Xiyue on the side nervously grabbed the corner of her clothes, and shrank her body to Mu Xici's side again and again. Mu Xici gently patted the back of her hand as usual.
Feeling the strength on the back of her hand, Mu Xiyue slowly calmed down and smiled shyly at Mu Xici.
At this time, in the main hall of the Mu family, there were two rows of elders who played a pivotal role in the Mu family, each with a serious expression. Standing in the middle is Mu Chennan, the head of the Mu family.
Mu Chennan has been cultivating for many years, and his body exudes a heavy aura, which makes people dare not approach him. In detail, Mu Xici, as a side branch, still needs to call the head of the family a big uncle, but the juniors who are on the fringes of the family basically do not have such opportunities.
"Everyone!" Mu Chennan's voice made people feel right, "The general election of the disciples of the Sanqing Pavilion once every fifty years is coming, and due to the age limit of this election, our Mu family can only send five juniors. If a junior can be successfully selected, the future prosperity of my Mu family is just around the corner! This is a major event in the past 100 years of the Mu family, and everyone on the list must do their best to assist in this matter!"
