Cheng Yu leaned on the edge of the bed and looked at Aunt Dong carefully, Aunt Dong was wearing a simple cyan Confucian skirt with a delicate face, so many years of getting along made the original Cheng Yu have a lot of dependence on her.

"Aunt Dong, doesn't my mother want me anymore?" Cheng Yu asked softly. In fact, there are few impressions of the original mother's parents, and she can't even remember what her mother's relatives look like. She just wanted to know useful information from Aunt Dong.

Aunt Dong subconsciously replied: "How come, many things in the house have to be taken care of by Mrs. ......"

She didn't go on, Cheng Yu is introverted and rarely asks such questions, she used to reply like this, but thinking of a life and death catastrophe for this child a few days ago, Mrs. still didn't hear anything, which inevitably made her unfair for Cheng Yu, how to say that Cheng Yu is also Mrs. Biological flesh and blood. This time, Aunt Dong changed her past and told Cheng Yu a lot about her and her family.

Cheng Yu also inquired about some things she wanted to know. What Cheng Yu traveled through was not an ordinary ancient world, it was actually a world of immortal cultivation with light and shadow, the Tianchu Continent. It is rumored that people with spiritual roots here have the opportunity to cultivate immortals, and the ability of immortals is extraordinary, and they have the ability to fly to the sky and the earth, and overwhelm the mountains and seas.

This made Cheng Yu a little excited, everything outside was full of fantasy for her.

The small village where she lives is on the outskirts of Shikan City. Shikan City is located in a small area. There are no imperial nobles here, but a place where the family is the center of power. Shikan Castle is a place where three major families are jointly in charge. The three major families are the Cheng family, the Duanmu family and the Ji family.

And Cheng Yu's father is Cheng Pinyi, the second brother of the current patriarch of the Cheng family. Her mother is Ji Yun, the second daughter of the Ji clan chief. And Aunt Dong is just the daughter of a carpenter in Xixiang, since her family died, she went to Chengfu to be a Zhuangzi maid. A few years ago, he was arranged here to take care of Cheng Yu.

Although Shikan City is located in the extreme south of the Tianchu Continent, it is something that everyone knows about immortals, from eighty old people to three-year-old children, because every ten years there will be a grand event of immortal apprenticeship, at that time, as long as children in the city who have reached the age of six have the opportunity to participate in the test, as long as they are selected, they can go to the world of immortals. The last test was four years ago, and Aunt Dong described the grand occasion at that time, which made Cheng Yu very yearning for it.

But she obviously didn't make the cut for the test four years ago, otherwise she wouldn't have been placed in this small courtyard after the age of six and left her to fend for herself. Thinking about it, the original Cheng Yu was depressed all day long because he was abandoned by his parents' family.

But even if she can't cultivate immortals, she is still a member of the family after all, so what reason is there to send a child to this remote place? And for so many years, her father and mother ignored it, as if they had forgotten such a child. Aunt Dong didn't know about this issue, she didn't know much about the Cheng family not long after she went to Cheng's house. Since she was arranged to take care of Cheng Yu, she has never seen the master and the lady again.

Cheng Yu's mother ordered her not to announce Cheng Yu's life experience to the public. So no one in Xixiang for so long knew that Cheng Yu was the young lady of Cheng Mansion. Some villagers thought Cheng Yu was her daughter.

Every month, Aunt Dong would go to Chengfu Courtyard to get some silver taels and supplies. Aunt Dong handed her a brocade box, which contained a bottle of elixir. Now there is only one left in it, and when Cheng Yu was in a coma, Aunt Dong gave her one. This was given to her by the housekeeper of the Cheng Mansion.

At night, there was silence in the small courtyard, only the occasional cry of the nightingale outside the window, Cheng Yu tossed and turned, knowing the current situation, she was even more confused. Since the original owner has an extraordinary background, why was he placed in this small courtyard alone? What disease did the original owner get since he was a child? She remembered the torture when she first woke up, and the original owner lost his life because of it. There is also the black qi in the body and the golden light that appeared at the end, which Cheng Yu couldn't understand.

Cheng Yu took advantage of the moonlight, put his hand into the vase on the small table next to the bed, and took out a few beads, which should be called spirit beads now, the currency used by ordinary people here is still gold and silver, and these big families and rich families have spirit beads and even spirit stones. I heard that the immortals also have spirit ores full of immortal energy. The spirit bead is also honed from the loose scraps of this spirit ore. The orb glowed white in the moonlight. The spirit bead was extremely comfortable to hold in the hand, and the cold feeling slowly passed from the palm of the hand to the body. The boredom in my heart suddenly disappeared, and it didn't take long for Cheng Yu to fall asleep.

The next day, Cheng Yu woke up early, got up and walked around, and his body was much better yesterday. Her wardrobe was almost all white, and she managed to pull out an emerald green from underneath and dress her in the way she remembered.

After packing up a few gray-white spirit beads on the bed, Cheng Yu was a little surprised, the aura in the spirit beads dissipated so quickly? The last two were poured out of the vase, and the light was still there. Cheng Yu clenched one of them in his hand again, and after a long time of letting go, the spirit bead remained unchanged at all, Cheng Yu had to put it down for the time being, and couldn't think of a reason.

At this time, Aunt Dong happened to come in the door, and when she saw that she was already dressed neatly, she was very pleased: "Sister Yu, today is in spirit, come, Aunt Dong will braid your hair." ”

Cheng Yu was worried about not knowing what to do with this long hair, so she was good at ponytails. Aunt Dong was skillful, and after a while, she braided two small locks, and left half of her long hair on the back of her head to fall naturally. Then he took out two identical hairpins with small Ryukyu balls from the jewelry box and pinned them to the small locks. Cheng Yu's whole person immediately looked smart and cute.

After a simple breakfast, Cheng Yu couldn't wait to go out and have a look. Aunt Dong saw that she was so interested, and she didn't stop her, thinking that she had just recovered from a serious illness and should go out for a walk. Carry Cheng Yu out of the house. The small village of Creek Township is a bit depressed, full of bare trees and yellow leaves. This is too far from the quiet and beautiful paradise in his memory, and Cheng Yu suddenly stood still. "Aunt Dong, isn't it just spring?"

Aunt Dong carefully held Cheng Yu. "Eh, it's time again."

Cheng Yu looked at Aunt Dong suspiciously. "Listen to Qiao Da, this was not the case here, but I don't know where to start, every one or two years here, all the trees and grass will all wither overnight. This situation will not last for a few days before it will get better and all the plants will sprout and bloom again. ”

Aunt Dong picked up a leaf on the ground and put it in Cheng Yu's hand, "Many of the villagers here have moved out of Xi Village because of this. The rest of the villagers live farther away from here, but this is not the case. ”

The two walked to the river, which was crystal clear and had some small fish in it. Cheng Yu squatted by the river, put the leaves in his hand in the water and paddled a few times, and the water waves swept through layers of water halos and spread far away.

This is the Xixiang River. Although the river is narrow, it surrounds most of the village.

"Ahh

Cheng Yu's fingers tingled, and a chubby big-headed fish bit her finger. The fish was not large, the size of her palm, and it was still a normal small fish in the water. But now her sharp teeth are biting Cheng Yu's fingers and not moving, and she still can't shake it off. The body of the fish gradually swells until it looks like a round ball.

"Sister Yu, what's going on?" As soon as Aunt Dong heard Cheng Yu's shout, she pulled her up. Seeing the fathead fish on her index finger, she was also startled, and hurriedly reached out to get the fish down.

The fish's mouth kept retracting, and its fangs were clasped tightly on its fingers. Cheng Yu was in a cold sweat. Aunt Dong found a stone on the ground, and she was afraid of hurting Cheng Yu's hand, so she only hit the fishtail a few times.

She picked up a sharp stone and pried the fish's mouth open with her fingers. He poked the stone in hard and pulled his fingers out. As soon as the fathead fish was in pain, he used all his strength to bite off half of the stones stuffed into his mouth. All this happened in an instant, Cheng Yu was dumbfounded, and this tooth was also good. If she slowed down, her fingers would have been cut off.

Is there still an abundance of piranhas?

"Show me how my hands are." Aunt Dong nervously grabbed Cheng Yu's hand. Cheng Yu was surprised and stretched out his fingers to his eyes, and from the time he stretched out the fish's mouth, his hand didn't hurt. Not only is the finger not broken. Not even a single stamping remained. Could it be that the fish just now was merciful?

Cheng Yu squatted on the ground, looked at the fathead fish that was struggling on the ground, and picked up a branch and put it in its mouth.

"Be careful."

A man's reminder came not far away.

The person who came was Qiao San.

He quickly ran to Cheng Yu's side. "Xiaoyu, stay away, this fish will bite now."

Qiao San motioned for Cheng Yu to stand aside, and he threw the fish back into the river. I saw that the fish that entered the water quickly dried up and flattened down and returned to its normal size. The tooth also shrunk and disappeared. The little fish flicked its tail and swam towards the center of the school.

"Don't come any further to the river."

It turns out that not only the trees have turned yellow over the years, but even the creatures in the river have mutated these days. The fish in the river have become full of fangs like just now, and they will easily bite anything into pieces. In the early years, unwitting villagers were bitten by these fish in the river. Like they don't usually go out much, they haven't even heard of these things.

"You still don't have to go out these days, just tell me if you need anything, and I'll prepare." Qiao San touched his head and said to Aunt Dong embarrassedly.

For some reason, Cheng Yu felt that the village was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. She looked around, and there were still green mountains and rivers in the distance, but there was no life near the village.

"Anything else out of the ordinary?"

Qiao San rubbed Cheng Yu's head and said, "Not in the rest, when it comes to this time in recent years, the villagers basically stay at home." After half a month, everything will return to normal. ”

Qiao San sent Cheng Yu and Aunt Dong back to the courtyard. Then he went to the yard to chop wood, and Aunt Dong continued to talk to him on the side. Cheng Yu went back to the room, the original Cheng Yu didn't know, but now she could see at a glance that Qiao San liked Aunt Dong. In that case, leave more opportunities for them.
