Mijia Village is very small, and located in a very remote area, there are only about a dozen households, less than 50 people, because the fields around the village were flooded last year, so the original labor force in the village, that is, adult males were forced to go to the nearby city to work to make money, so now Mijia Village, which can only rely on hunting for a living, is even poorer, because there are only some old, weak, sick and disabled left, there is no way to enter the depths of the mountains and forests to hunt large prey, and the three or five pheasants and hares that are brought every week are only purchased by the small restaurants in the city at a low price, which is not enough to feed so many people。

Therefore, even in the depths of the wild beast-infested mountains and forests, the poor Mijia Village is only surrounded by a shoddy wooden fence, and even small jackals and foxes can't stop it, so it is just a decoration.

In this year of starvation, the only four or five little dolls left in Mijia Village have taken on an unshirkable responsibility on their shoulders.

Every day, they have to walk dozens of miles of mountain roads to pick wild vegetables, which contribute to helping the whole village survive the famine.

But fortunately, the mountain road has been discovered by the people in the village long ago, and there are no large beasts around, so the people in the village are relieved to let a few little dolls go out.

At the end of this road, dozens of miles away from Mijia Village, there is also a small village, which is thriving, with a population of more than 300. Last year, we were fortunate to be on higher ground, so it was not eroded by floods, and the young and middle-aged labor force remained in the village.

So this small village not only did not suffer from the impact of the flood, but also had a little extra money to invite Mr. Private School, a few little dolls in Mijia Village, every day when it was dark, they had already set off, just to be able to pick wild vegetables and fruits before dawn, and they could secretly go to the only private school in that small village, squatting in the corner and secretly listening to Mr. Lecturing for a while.

The people in that small village are very simple and kind, so the villagers did not drive them away even though they knew that these little dolls would squat in the corner every day and listen to Mr. Lecturing for a while.

Even if the gentleman is a down-and-out talent that each of them pooled a little money to invite from the city.

"The bright moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground. Raise your head to look at the bright moon and bow your head to think of your hometown. The sound of reading echoes throughout the small mountain village.

I saw four or five little dolls, each carrying a basket made of bamboo, which was full of wild vegetables and fruits, squatting neatly outside the window of the private school, one of them was about eleven or twelve years old, and he was also shaking his head and reading silently with the children in the private school.

The morning passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already three poles, so the eleven or twelve-year-old child whispered to the few little dolls around him, it was time to go.

Saying that, Lian Lian was reluctant to glance at the inside of the private school, turned around and left first, obviously he was the leader of these little dolls.

This is a one- or two-year-old little doll who is no one else, it is Mi Jiu who was leading the way in front when he was a child, and he secretly clenched his fists while walking, and I want to get ahead sooner or later.

When Mi Jiu and the others returned to the village, it was already past lunchtime, so Mi Jiu was not in a hurry to go home, but just poured the wild vegetables and fruits in the basket on his back with a few little dolls in the big courtyard of the village chief's house, and after waiting for the village chief to distribute them uniformly, he rubbed his stomach that was still rumbling just now and walked home.

Every day, he only eats one meal in the evening, and when he goes up the mountain in the morning, he can take the opportunity to eat some wild vegetables and fruits to satisfy his hunger.

After all, my grandparents are old, and I have a four or five-year-old sister who needs to take care of myself.

Mi Jiu's parents did not go to the city to work to earn money, but disappeared in an accident three years ago in the mountains and forests, and even the bones were not found.

Mi Jiu pushed open the tattered wooden door that could not block the wind and rain at all, let alone the beast, and entered the house, and went to visit the grandparents first as usual.

But today, there are some abnormalities for the grandparents, who are sitting on the kang with a sad face.

On a tattered small wooden table on the kang, there were two bowls of rice and a whole roast chicken.

Mi Jiu was startled at the same time, and suddenly had a bad premonition, and then began to frantically look around the house for something.

After searching for a circle to no avail, Mi Jiu's heart completely cooled.

Trembling, he asked his grandparents, "Grandparents, where did Millet go?" Why didn't I see her?"

Mi Jiu's grandfather looked at Mi Jiu with his left eye for some reason: "Your sister was taken away, that person left ten catties of rice, two roast chickens, and fifty copper plates, when Mi Jiu heard the news, he was suddenly stunned, he had actually thought of this kind of thing a long time ago, because the people in the village were forced to make a living, not only did the family do things that sold children, but he also kept watch out for this matter, but he didn't expect it to happen today."

Thinking of this, Mi Jiu roared angrily: "You sold millet like this, that is my own sister and your own granddaughter." ”

Mi Jiu's grandfather touched his tears and said, "Xiao Jiu, this is also good for your sister, at least you can eat well when you go to the city." ”

Mi Jiu shook his head, no, he didn't believe in this, stubbornly stumbled along the path to the city and ran and ran, I don't know how long he ran, Mi Jiu, who hadn't eaten anything for a day, tripped over a stone, and the stone that hit his forehead on the ground was covered with blood, and then Mi Jiu fell unconscious.

When Mi Jiu woke up again, it was already dawn in the sky, indicating that he had been in a coma here for at least seven or eight hours.

Mi Jiu, who had just woken up, seemed to have forgotten what had happened yesterday, and looked at the dawn in the distance with confused eyes. After sitting on the ground for an hour, Mi Jiu stood up and patted his clothes, which were already almost unclothed, and walked towards the village.

Mi Jiu, who was already in an unknown state, was immediately stunned when he returned to the village, and the village was full of bloodstains.

There were even a few severed limbs, and there were footprints of at least four beasts on the ground, indicating that the entire village had been attacked by beasts last night.

Mi Jiu ran to his home like crazy, his home is no longer there, completely collapsed and gone, Mi Jiu with his hands and feet and desperately digging has become a ruined home, because the house at home is made of yellow mud, so compared to the brick house, he digs very fast, but after all, he is only an eleven or twelve-year-old child, and his strength is limited, so he dug for two hours before he saw the corpse of his grandparents, which had been smashed by the collapsed house, but also because the house collapsed by the beast, so the corpses of the two elders were intact, and they were not taken away by the beast, and the beast that was hungry enough to attack the village would not care if the meat was old or old。

Mi Jiu silently looked at the two elders on the ground, the scenes that happened from childhood to adulthood kept flashing in his mind, Mi Jiu's memory is very good, he can never forget every word that Mr. Private School said, these scenes are also clear in his mind as if they had just happened, but it doesn't matter, my parents have left me, my sister has left me, and you have left me.

Mi Jiu, who buried the two old men, finally passed out again under fatigue and hunger, and if nothing else, Mi Jiu, who had passed out this time, would not wake up again.

But Mi Jiu was actually rescued, the voice of the person who saved him was too familiar, and he had to follow the other party to learn poetry and verses every day, yes, the person who saved him was the private school teacher in that small village, Mr. Dan.

Since Mi Jiu woke up, he has not returned to Mijia Village, after all, Mijia Village has been destroyed in one fell swoop, and his relatives are no longer there, and there is no place for him to be nostalgic.

Her wish to become a scholar did not come true, because Mr. Dan did not take her back to her original small village to continue teaching private school.

That's right, it's "she", Mi Jiu has always been dressed as a teenager, nothing more than the patriarchy of the villagers, if it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, her parents would not have continued to give birth to her little sister without revealing the pot, but unfortunately it was because after having her little sister, the husband and wife left home without completing the dream of giving birth to a son and inheriting the lineage, but unfortunately there was an accident halfway.

Since then, Mi Jiu has always been dressed as a boy.

Mr. Dan is not really a teacher, but a legendary hermit who travels far and wide, that is, an immortal in the name of the laity.

After learning about this, Mi Jiu immediately knelt down to Mr. Dan and begged to be a little disciple under Mr. Dan.

However, Mr. Dan only glanced at her a few times, and then stopped speaking, but in addition to teaching Mi Jiu'er to read and write every day, he added some extra homework, that is, an old herbal medicine outline.

However, Mi Jiu'er was born with an amazing memory, and within a month, he could already memorize everything in the outline of kung fu herbs, which made Mr. Dan a little different from picking up treasures.

The attitude towards Mi Jiu'er has also undergone a huge change, not only has the daily homework increased a lot, but also personally took Mi Jiu'er to start trekking through mountains and rivers to try hundreds of herbs.

I can always see an adult walking in front, and an eleven or twelve-year-old child staggering and struggling to follow behind.

In fact, Mi Jiu'er at that time was also well-informed, although she didn't know what level Mr. Dan's cultivation was, but from the fact that the means of transportation were sometimes terrifying, she could draw one or two.

Although Mr. Dan has never mentioned accepting Mi Jiu'er as an apprentice, Mi Jiu'er has a smart mind and has long regarded Mr. Dan as her master, and when she was at her most vulnerable, Mr. Dan appeared and taught her to learn all kinds of knowledge, and she has long regarded Mr. Dan as a father-like existence.

Three years have passed in a hurry, and Mi Jiu'er doesn't know how many kinds of herbal medicine she knows, and she doesn't know how many kinds of highly toxic medicines she has tried in person, all of which have laid a solid foundation for her to start formal alchemy.

Three years later, Mi Jiu'er was finally able to start alchemy, but Mr. Dan did not teach Mi Jiu'er to refine pills that could improve his cultivation, but auxiliary pills such as Zhuyan Dan and Yi Rong Dan.

Mi Jiu'er, who was able to refine the pill, was already happy and carried away in her heart, how could she care about refining what pill, the experience of the past few years had made her deeply obsessed with the profession of alchemy, but she still didn't know how precious these pill-aiding pills were.

More than three years have passed in a flash, and Mi Jiu'er doesn't know what level of her alchemy level has reached, but she can know the key from Mr. Dan's initial disapproval to his astonishment.

Until one day Mr. Dan called Mi Jiu'er to the front, Mr. Dan was followed by an old man in Taoist clothes, this day Mr. Dan just said to Mi Jiu, in the future, you must not alchemy in front of outsiders, you must not mention that I am your teacher, and you will have a chance to meet and go away in the future, without any nostalgia.

And the old man in the Taoist suit took Mi Jiu'er, who was stunned in place, to Dao Mountain, and in a blink of an eye, it was three years, Mi Jiu'er kept cultivating and cultivating, and I don't know if her talent had been exhausted in Dan Dao or how, the progress of cultivation was slow, and the old man who brought her into the sect had not appeared again since that day, and Mi Jiu'er had become a real loner again.

She refined the Yi Rong Pill for herself, and she always showed herself as a teenager, until she met Qi Changsheng and a few people, and Mi Jiu'er once again felt that she was a living person.

However, my realm is still very low, I haven't found my sister yet, I haven't met Master again, I haven't even worn a beautiful dress once, why am I going to die here?

When she was dying, countless pictures flashed in her mind, and she completely fell into darkness.
