Some people say that the scenery of the world can only be deeply felt by experiencing it in person, and I think that the places you arrive in your dreams can also be real and vivid.

When I closed my eyes, I clearly saw a lively and joyful village, surrounded by mountains and rivers and green trees, warm and silent in the afterglow of the setting sun, safe and self-sufficient.

The villagers walked leisurely on the stone roads that extended in all directions, dressed neatly and smiling, and would come up to greet everyone cordially, and then stop to talk, never in a hurry.

This is not only the case with this village, which is named after Lushan Mountain in the east, but also the dozens of villages around Xifeng Town, large and small, are so peaceful and peaceful, and all thanks to the enlightened and benevolent monarch of Cangwu Kingdom.

Donglu Village is divided into North Village and South Village by a river that originates in Beidi County, and it is common to see women from the two villages gathering on the riverside with wooden barrels and clothes, laughing and chatting softly.

Among them was a pregnant woman with a beautiful face and a big belly, who was carefully bending down to wash her husband's dirty clothes, and although it was difficult to move, she always had a happy smile on her face.

"Ah Su, look at your round belly, you must be a big fat boy when you are born. The middle-aged woman on the other side of the river accosted her while rubbing the clothes in her hands.

"Thanks to Aqing's sister-in-law, the birth of a child must be reported to her sister-in-law first. The pregnant woman smiled sweetly, then looked down at the soaphorn foam that had been washed out of the stream.

At this moment, the opposite sister-in-law suddenly "ah", pointed to a small black dot in the upper reaches of the river, and anxiously called the pregnant woman to look there, the pregnant woman raised her head, and saw a flower cloth bamboo basket down the water.

"Sister-in-law Aqing, look...... It looks like there's something in there. ”

"Oh! Sister-in-law A Qing exclaimed, turned her head and broke off a long mulberry branch behind her.

The two of them stood dumbly, their eyes falling on the small bamboo basket that was drifting downward, and the slightest ripple in the rushing river could scare the pregnant woman into a cold sweat, as if it was their own flesh and blood that were about to be submerged in the river.

The small bamboo basket drifted thrillingly between the two, and the flower cloth tightly wrapped a newborn baby, revealing only a fair, immature and round face, but I didn't expect its eyes to be open, and the blue sky and white clouds were reflected in the clear eyes.

Sister-in-law A Qing trembled and pushed the small bamboo basket towards the pregnant woman with mulberry sticks, and shouted eagerly:

"Asu, come ...... Grab the basket. ”

The pregnant woman used all her might, stepping her feet into the cold water, leaning forward with great difficulty to reach the rim of the basket, and she herself almost fell into the stream.

The abandoned baby was rescued by a pregnant woman on the shore, but suddenly she burst into tears, and the pregnant woman had to pick it up and shake it from side to side to lull it to sleep.

"Sister-in-law Aqing, it's a boy, you see...... He stopped crying. A thrilling smile appeared on the pregnant woman's face.

"What should I do? This child ......" Sister-in-law A Qing looked at the baby in the pregnant woman's arms from afar, and couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Look at this child is quite pitiful, I am also going to be a mother, how can I bear to let him go? Let him be a companion with my child in this world in the future!" said the pregnant woman, looking for something in the bamboo basket.

"Well, you take the baby home first, and I'll wash the clothes for you, and I don't know how long the little cub has been floating in the river. ”

The pregnant woman nodded, picked up the clothes at her feet and threw them at the opposite side, and then left the shore with the baby she had picked up.

Just when Ah Qing's sister-in-law saw off the pregnant woman, there was a sound of iron hooves of thousands of horses galloping in the upper reaches of the river, which frightened Ah Qing's sister-in-law and threw away the clothes she had just received.

"Could it be that this baby caused the noise?" Ah Qing muttered in a panic, and hurriedly threw the broken mulberry sticks into the bushes next to her, and then saw a black iron cavalry army descending the river, stirring up dust in the sky.

This army came to Ah Qing's eyes in an instant, they rode tall and strong war horses, the white tiger flag of the empire fluttered in the wind, and the metal weapons glittered in the sun, which made Ah Qing's sister-in-law kneel in panic.

A general came out of the army, sat on a horse and pointed a halberd at Ah Qing's throat, and asked almost angrily:

"Have you ever seen a bamboo basket with a baby floating down the water?"

The general's tone frightened Aqing's sister-in-law, she looked at the sharp and bloody halberd, but she was thinking carefully in her heart: Why do these people hate this baby so much, they must not tell them, otherwise the little cub may not live.

Thinking of this, Sister-in-law A Qing trembled and knelt down, shook her head, and said tremblingly:

"I didn't ...... I didn't see any babies, no bamboo baskets. ”

The young general glanced at Aqing's sister-in-law, then searched down the river, and after a long time, he took it back, obviously finding nothing.

"You go...... Tell your village chief that he should gather all the men, women, and children of the village here. ”

After speaking, the young general turned his head and gave an order to the people behind him, and the soldiers scattered in all directions, surrounding the entire Donglu Village.

At this time, the pregnant woman who rescued the baby did not know the truth, she returned home with a small bamboo basket, and when she walked into the courtyard gate, she saw her husband who was practicing swords, and she told him about it from beginning to end.

The family's surname is Yin, the pregnant woman's name is Shen Susu, and her husband's name is Yin Mo, a very common family of qi refining in Donglu Village.

Yin Mo picked up the baby in the small bamboo basket and stared at it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and two red dots appeared in his eyes, seeing that the baby could weakly decompose the Qi of the Nine Heavens into qi, he couldn't help but nod his head a few times, and then looked at his wife softly, and said:

"Let's adopt this child! there will be one more monk to protect the village. ”

Shen Susu nodded with a smile, pinched the baby's face and muttered:

"This kid doesn't have a name yet, you can get one!"

"Down the river...... His name is Jiang Liu'er, Yin Jiangliu. ”

Just when the husband and wife were happy about the unexpected child, the door of the house was pushed open by the village.

"Brother Yin, the village chief called, and the whole village gathered by the river. ”

"What's the matter?"

"There is a team of Western Imperial Army in the village, and I don't know why. ”

Hearing this, Shen Susu's face turned pale, and she vaguely guessed that this must be related to the child she brought back.

Yin Mo saw his wife's strange face, and he also understood a rough idea in his heart, and continued to ask Li Zheng suspiciously:

"Didn't the village chief do anything to prepare?"

"How can you not prepare? The village elder has secretly given an order to the monks, and if the Imperial Army dares to make a move, we will call him to come and go. ”

"Brother Lizheng, you go over first, let's go as soon as we get ready. Yin Mo grabbed the baby in his hand into his arms, and turned around casually to block Li Zheng's sight.

"Huh...... When your child was born, why don't I know at all?"

"Just yesterday, isn't it too late to inform everyone!" Yin Mo always blocked Shen Susu's big belly, hoping to hide it from today.

"Brother Yin, don't worry, although our Cangwu Kingdom is a vassal state of the Western Decisive Empire, but our town fights for itself, and the village fights for itself, this army wants to destroy the village, and it depends on whether they have the ability, after all, strength is respected in this world of refining qi. With that, Rizheng walked out of the room with a big grin.

Yin Mo took a long breath and glanced at Shen Susu, and the two of them hurriedly hid the baby in the cellar in their hands, and then left the house fully armed and went straight to the bank of the river.

The dispute between the Western Decisive Imperial Army and Donglu Village over this baby sparked a big war, and the three people who knew the truth, Ah Qingsao, Shen Susu and Yin Mo were all tacitly determined to save the baby, and the battle was about to break out, and the powerful monks hidden in the village came out to defend their homeland, and the Western Decisive Imperial Army was completely wiped out.

The Xidu Empire was a powerful country with an absolute monarchy, while the Cangwu Kingdom was a vassal state full of democracy, with each village standing on its own, each town on its own, and each county on its own.

The strength of the Western Empire is in the military dynasty, and the strength of the Cangwu Kingdom is in the people, which is the reason why the Cangwu Kingdom, as a vassal state of the Western Empire, has never been annexed.

Ten years ago, in this battle, Donglu Village sacrificed many powerful monks, including the virtuous Fifth Virtuous Cultivator Gong Wuhou, these monks will always be remembered by the villagers for the glory of defending the village, and will be emulated by future generations.

There is a high pavilion on Donglu Mountain, and in the pavilion stands the most powerful and virtuous cultivator of Donglu Village since the establishment of the village, a total of five generations of five people, and their strength comes from Qi.

There is an ancient proverb: There are three elements in the sky and nine qi, and the nine qi are transformed into nine heavens. Nine turns and nine changes to the void are broken, and the three clear Da Luo Tian are seen.

In this world, there are nine heavens in the sky, there are immortals in the sky, and there are heavens outside the sky, which is for the Daluo Heaven, all things maintain a balance between the consumption of energy and the production of energy, the ancients called this energy Qi, Qi is produced in the Nine Heavens, the source flows in the Nine Heavens, and sinks and decomposes because of the dense quality, and filters through the layers of the Nine Heavens, and produces the qi that can be used by people.

The upper part is a 'heaven' character representing the nine heavens, and the lower four points are the decomposition of the qi, which is the qi, and the monks form an internal circulation of qi in the body through perennial refining of qi, and then convert it into body arts, illusions and pupil techniques through special ways to produce powerful power.

Ten years ago, Jiang Liuer was rescued by Ah Su by the river, and ten years later, Jiang Liuer took root in the Yin family in Donglu Village.

If there is an afterlife, I still have to be my own ——— Jiangliuer
