Chapter 1 Smoke and rain in a small town
Early in the morning, in the city of Lin'an.
"Apricot blossoms, fresh apricot blossoms......"
Several peasant girls carrying flower baskets on their backs were hawking along the street in the silky smoke and rain.
......
Dongfu Inner Garden, Yuemei Courtyard.
In the inter-courtyard quiet room, Shen Yun, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch, slowly opened his eyes.
He got up and got off the ground, walked over to the humanoid puppet standing in the corner, and threw a punch with all his might.
Bang!
The fist struck the puppet's chest solidly, and a line of information appeared on top of the flake hedron on its forehead:
"Basic spiritual power: 1 ding; ”
The humanoid puppet is called [Force Golem], and it is a magic weapon used in the cultivation world to evaluate basic spiritual power and realm cultivation.
Shen Yun shook his head, returned to the work couch, and continued to cultivate.
......
Shen Yun was originally a detachment leader of the most prestigious Kunlun special forces on earth and in the Huaxia Army.
When he led his team to carry out the evacuation mission overseas, he was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet from the local anti-China armed forces, and soon lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, he found himself curled up on a couch in a quiet room.
Immediately, unfamiliar memories slowly passed through his mind, and finally merged with his original memories.
Only then did he realize that his body was dead, and his soul had traveled to a different world called the Shengyi Continent.
The person he possessed was also called Shen Yun, an eighteen-year-old man who had just died.
The predecessor was a side child of the Dong family in Lin'an City, and there were two relatives living with him - his mother Dong Yuemei and his sister Lu Wei.
As for his father, Shen Qingchuan, it seems that he left their mother and son when his predecessor was very young, and he has not been heard from since.
In his previous life, Shen Yun, who grew up in an orphanage since he was a child, has always longed for a warm home, and he will naturally cherish it if he gets what he wants in this life.
He imitated the speech and behavior of his predecessor and came into contact with his mother and sister, while trying to care for them in his own way.
It wasn't long before he was fully integrated into this warm family.
This is a world where martial arts are respected and mana is supreme.
Shen Yun secretly swore that he must cultivate hard, strive to improve his cultivation, and use his solid arms to hold up a clear sky full of sunshine for his relatives.
......
The next day, Lin'an School, Nanyuan School District.
Bell!
A middle-aged man walked into Shen Yun's school house with the melodious sound of the bell.
This person's name is Qi Meng, and he is the master of this school, a high-ranking warrior cultivator.
Qi Meng looked at the people present, and said loudly: "In five days, it will be the period of this year's cultivation assessment, and a total of fifteen students from our house have signed up to participate, everyone must seize the last time to stabilize their cultivation ......."
The Lin'an School Hall is the cradle of cultivators built and operated by the Lin'an City Lord's Mansion, and is divided into Nanyuan School District and Beiyuan School District.
As long as the scholars under his rule pay a large amount of tuition for the children of the families who have the talent for cultivation, they can become Nanyuan students.
Nanyuan School District is responsible for the training of low-level samurai, and once students break through the bottleneck and become middle-level samurai, they can enter Beiyuan School District to continue their studies.
In order to be fair and just, the evaluation of cultivation over the years was carried out in the True Martial Pavilion in the City Lord's Mansion.
......
Shen Yun secretly smiled bitterly while listening to Qi Meng's speech.
When the predecessor was five years old, he successfully awakened his spiritual consciousness with a spirit summoning fruit, and then he was sent to Nanyuan School District by the Dong family, and it has been thirteen years.
According to the school rules, if a Nanyuan student reaches the age of eighteen and is unable to become a mid-level warrior, the academy will remove him, which also means that this person will withdraw from the ranks of the family's key cultivation objects, and will no longer be able to receive any cultivation resources and related funding.
The samurai realm is the initial realm of martial arts practice, which is divided into four small realms: low-level, middle-level, high-level, and peak.
Practitioners of this realm do not experience significantly physically and mentally when they break through the small realms, and even more so when they transition from the lower to the middle levels.
Everything can only be determined by the force puppet.
The predecessor was assessed by never having a basic spiritual power of 2 dings, that is, 2,000 catties of fist power.
But this year is the last year, and I can't escape it, so I have to sign up.
On that day, several classmates sitting next to the front of me discussed the strange things in the spiritual world.
Someone mentioned that there was once a low-level warrior who took two Peiyuan Dan at a time in a daze before cultivating, but he didn't expect that after cultivating, he would become a middle-level warrior in one fell swoop.
When Qi Meng taught the students the low-level warrior mentality, he repeatedly emphasized that he could only take one Pei Yuan Pill at a time, and he could only take it again after completely absorbing and refining the heaven and earth aura contained in it.
After listening to the student's story, everyone was amazed, but they didn't take it seriously, and no one would take the risk.
Hearing this, the hopeless predecessor who was alone and desperate to break through seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and when he returned home, he began to retreat.
After taking two Pei Yuan Dan in a row in the quiet room, the predecessor began to cultivate, and within an hour, he went mad and died.
......
After Qi Meng finished speaking, he stepped down from the podium, came to Shen Yun's side, and said with a pleased smile: "You are finally willing to apply for the exam, how about it, the realm is almost stable!"
Shen Yun hurriedly stood up and said with a wry smile: "If you don't apply for the exam, there will be no hope at all!"
Qi Meng encouraged: "If you dare to face it, you will have a chance, although my cultivation is not high, but I still have the vision to see people, and your future achievements will definitely surpass that of being a teacher, and even surpassing all your classmates!"
"Master Qi, are you serious?" Cao Mo, who was sitting behind Shen Yun, suddenly asked.
"Hahaha......" The students burst into laughter.
Qi Meng glared at Cao Mo fiercely, patted Shen Yun on the shoulder, and then returned to the podium, and after saying a few words of encouragement to all the students who had registered, he left the school.
According to the usual practice, students who participate in the cultivation assessment do not need to come to the school hall from today, and Shen Yun will leave the Nanyuan School District regardless of whether he can pass it or not.
Shen Yun was quite satisfied with his current life, and he didn't want to increase the variables because of some trivial things, so he didn't bother with Cao Mo.
After sitting down, he organized his belongings in an orderly manner and prepared to take them home after school.
Who knew that it didn't take long for Cao Mo's sneer to come from behind him: "It's that piece of material that has already been promoted, why wait until now, I see, some people just don't know themselves, how different is this from the walking dead!"
Shen Yun frowned, turned around, and said to Cao Mo with a cold face: "You and I don't have any grievances on weekdays, but why are you so aggressive today?!"
Cao Mo spread his hands and said, "I'm just telling the truth, that's all!"
Shen Yun sneered: "Listen to what you mean, is it concluded that I can't pass?"
Cao Mo smiled: "Whether you can pass or not, don't you know in your own heart! Why don't we make a bet, if you can pass, I will lie in front of the city lord's mansion and learn to bark three times, if you can't pass, you also have to follow this example, how about it?!"
Although Shen Yun has been a human being in two lives, his mind and city government have far surpassed these classmates, but after all, he has an eighteen-year-old enthusiasm, and he was so excited by the other party, he immediately replied: "As you wish!"
Immediately, the two each wrote a gambling contract, signed and drew the bet, and exchanged with each other.
......
After returning home, Shen Yun felt a little remorseful, but it was difficult to recover the water, so he could only seize the time to practice desperately, hoping for the legendary epiphany.
......
On the evening of the third day, Shen Yun's cultivation still did not change, and he was irritable for a while, so he left the quiet room and went out for a walk, and unconsciously walked to the east wing of the main courtyard.
The room was brightly lit, Dong Yuemei put the unfinished purse in her hand on the table, got up and moved her muscles.
She smiled and said to Lu Wei, who was sitting at the table embroidering juanpa: "Wei'er, in the past, you used to call Yun'er your brother, but recently, your brother is long and my brother is short, why is this?"
Lu Wei stopped what she was doing, and after hesitating for a while, she said hesitantly: "Mother, there is something, I have always wanted to ask you, can you tell Wei'er the truth?"
Dong Yuemei smiled: "Silly girl, from the moment you walk into this door, we are mother and daughter, what can't be asked or said!"
Lu Wei's face turned red, and she lowered her head and asked, "You brought me home from the seaside fishing village to take me as a righteous daughter, do you have any other ...... besides liking?"
Dong Yuemei also nodded and said, "Well, I originally planned to marry you to Yun'er when you grow up, but who would have expected that the two of you seem to be inseparable."
He snatched your jade pendant on the day you entered the house, and refused to return it alive or dead, if I hadn't given you the bracelet that Yun'er's father gave me back then, our family would have been afraid that it would be difficult to be peaceful until now.
Since then, although the two of you live in a courtyard, but they have been strangers, gradually, my mind has faded, the matter of marriage, always have to be happy with each other, rest assured, my mother will never force you in this regard!"
Lu Wei raised her head, a happy and shy smile appeared on her beautiful face, and said: "My brother said to me a few days ago that his farce was completely made because he liked me, but he didn't expect it to be self-defeating, but it caused my hatred, and then because he has been focusing on cultivation, it has caused the situation you said over time. ”
Dong Yuemei smiled secretly: "I only said that Yun'er has matured and stabilized a lot since the last time she came out of the customs, but her ability to coax girls has also grown!"
Lu Wei didn't know what Dong Yuemei was thinking, and continued: "I asked at the time, then you still don't return the jade pendant to me, my brother said that it was originally hung on the wall of the quiet room, but it suddenly disappeared some time ago, and he said that he would give me a better ...... another day!"
......
Shen Yun didn't continue to listen to the conversation that followed, and silently returned to his inter-hospital.
He looked up at the starry sky and sighed, "Heavens, if you can give me a second life, and you can also give me a happy and warm home, can't you show mercy again and let me pass this cultivation assessment smoothly?!"
"Hahaha!" An old, hearty laugh suddenly sounded in Shen Yun's ears.
Shen Yun was stunned for a moment, although this laughter was like in his ears, it was actually a spiritual sense transmission that only he could "hear".
He followed the prestige and found that the sound actually came from his left palm, and hurriedly raised his hand to take a look, only to find that there was an ancient ring on his middle finger.
"I'll go, how is it possible!" Shen Yun exclaimed.
In his previous life, he had helped an antique collector recover a stolen treasure, and as a token of his gratitude, he gave him an antique ring that was said to be good luck and good luck.
What is now on his hand is the ring that should have been worn on the hand of the corpse of his previous life.
"Haha, if you want to know the ins and outs of the whole thing, then come in and talk to the old man!" the old voice sounded again.
Shen Yun frowned and said, "I'm just a low-level warrior below, and my spiritual sense can only look inward at the moment, so how can I go in?"
"This ring has been recognized by you, it is equivalent to a part of your body, and you can enter and exit freely with the method of inner vision!"
Shen Yun returned to the quiet room, sat cross-legged on the bed, separated a wisp of spiritual consciousness from the sea of consciousness, and burrowed into the ring.
