As the name suggests, the people here are all surnamed Ye, but this is just a small remote mountain village. But outside Yejia Village, there are continuous, majestic, and quiet peaks that are opposite to the noise of the outside world.

By this time, the sky had been dyed red by the setting sun, and the sun had already set halfway. But on a hill there are still two slender figures.

"Wife, I have a good harvest today. That's enough firewood for us to eat for half a year!"

"yes, let's finish cutting early and go down the mountain early. ”

Two old men over half a hundred years old were carrying bundles of firewood on their backs, and they were cutting down a small tree that was not too tall. At that moment, the sound of a baby crying could be heard from the grass.

Wow Wow - Wow -

"Do you hear anything, old man?" said the old woman

"Yes, I didn't hear that, I didn't hear it. Hurry up and chop wood. Hurry up and get down the mountain," the old man said disapprovingly.

Obviously, this old woman's hearing is better than that of the old grandfather. The old woman was not at ease and continued to prick up her ears to listen.

Wow Wow - Wow -

"Yes, yes, it really is, it seems to be in the bushes over there. With that, the old woman walked straight to the grass.

"Come here, old man, you see, there's a child here. Hey, it's pretty cute. The old woman said as she looked at the child.

"Pitiful, old man, let's adopt him. The old woman suddenly suggested.

"It's pathetic, but our lives ...... It's not allowed......" The old man struggled in his heart for a long time before he said slowly: "No matter what, it's a human life." Forget it, starve to death, take him down the mountain. Only then did the old woman feel relieved.

This old couple, the man's name is Ye Tianmin, and the woman's name is Han Yun. They have no children all their lives, only their two elders depend on each other for their lives, and they make a living by chopping wood, and they often have a meal but no meal. But when they saw this child, who had nothing to do with them before, they adopted it without hesitation. It can be seen that this child grew up in Ye Tianmin's family, at least his character will not be bad.

Ye Tianmin and his wife carried the child down the mountain, and on the way, Ye Tianmin said to Han Yun from time to time: "Old woman, we picked up a child?"

8 years later

"Grandpa, grandpa, come here. I've found a rabbit nest!Hurry!Hurry up!" A skinny little child jumped up and down and grabbed an old man's arm and ran towards the rabbit nest.

This old man is Ye Tianmin back then, 8 years have passed, and in the blink of an eye, he is already close to the sixtieth birthday, so this child is naturally the child that Ye Tianmin and his wife "picked up" back, this child looks very ordinary, like the kind you can't find in a blink of an eye when you throw it into the pile, but he has an obvious feature, his eye pupils are naturally purple, which is very rare, so Ye Tianmin wanted to help him name Ye Zi at the beginning, but Han Yun said that the purple character was too feminine, so Ye Tianmin changed Ye Zi to Ye Zi.

"Okay, okay, grandpa is here. Ye Tianmin panted and walked to the place Ye Zi said, only to find that the place where the rabbit nest was located was very remote, even if you had 120 points of spirit, you might not be able to find it. However, Ye Tianmin was not suspicious, because Han Yun fell ill a few days ago, and he had just recovered recently, and these rabbits happened to be caught to make up for it, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

After a while, Ye Tianmin and Ye Zi slowly walked down the mountain with a few rabbits, and on the way, Ye Zi asked Ye Tianmin: "Grandpa, why don't you catch all the rabbits? ”

Looking at Ye Zi's childish face, Ye Tianmin just smiled and touched Ye Zi's head and said, "Zi'er, have you ever thought that if you catch them all, will we have so many rabbits to eat in the future?" ”

Ye Zi listened, just scratched his head, and said in confusion: "Grandpa, what you said is so difficult to understand, Zi'er doesn't understand." ”

Ye Tianmin thought about it, after all, Ye Zi was only 8 years old, he thought about it and said, "Then let's put it this way, Zi'er, what will happen to you if you lose your grandparents?......

Before Ye Tianmin finished speaking, Ye Zi hugged Ye Tianmin's thigh and said, "No, grandparents can't leave Zi'er." ”

Ye Tianmin touched Ye Zi's head, smiled at Ye Zi and said, "Grandpa's words haven't been finished yet, then you just think about the feelings of the rabbits, if you catch all their relatives at once, what will happen to them?"

After hearing this, Ye Zi nodded vigorously and said, "I understand grandpa!"

As they talked, they gradually came to the door of the house.

It's been another two years, these two years have been unremarkable, but Ye Zi has grown a lot taller, a little taller than the same age, his purple pupils are even brighter, according to neighbors, he will faintly emit purple light from time to time at night, but their family doesn't seem to pay much attention.

One morning, Ye Zi's family was eating a not very rich breakfast. Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door.

"Who?" Ye Tianmin asked, "Tianmin, open the door quickly, it's my village chief." ”

Hearing that it was the village chief Ye Zi, he went to open the door, and the village chief walked in breathlessly. Although the village chief is full of white hair, he is very burly, and he has a vague different temperament between his gestures.

"Village chief, what kind of wind brought you to the humble house, and why are you in such a hurry?" Han Yun walked up and asked.

"Well... Good news... Ahem, ahem. Obviously, the village chief had not recovered from his anger and coughed a few times.

"Village chief, you slow down, Zi'er, go fill a glass of water for the village chief. Ye Tianmin patted the village chief on the back and asked Ye Zi to fill the water. After a while, Ye Zi came with water, gurgling, a few bowls of water in the mouth, the village chief's face was much better, and he looked much more comfortable.

"Okay, let's get down to business, the people from the Spirit Refining Palace are going to come to Yejia Village, look for people with spiritual talents, and bring them back to cultivate. ”

"What?" Hearing this, Ye Tianmin and his wife were shocked. Ye Tianmin slapped his palm on the table and stood up excitedly, and the table almost overturned.

The Spirit Refining Palace, in a small village like Yejia Village, is equivalent to the existence of a god, and it has an extraordinary status in the mainland. Now that the Spirit Refining Palace is coming, what is the concept? To be honest, in the center of the continent, there are not many spirit masters, and the closer they get to the center, the more they are, but in a remote mountainous area like Yejia Village, let alone one or two, I don't know if there is one or not.

Everyone was shocked, only Ye Zi acted as if nothing had happened.

"What is this kid doing?" thought the village chief curiously.

"Oh, it doesn't matter, tomorrow the whole village of 10 years old and above will gather at the ancestral hall, don't be late. I'll go inform the next one. With that, the village chief rushed to the next family to announce the "good news" to them.

After the village chief left, Ye Tianmin said to Ye Zi solemnly: "Ye Zi, Zi'er, you can go tomorrow too." ”

Ye Tianmin's face looked very serious, but Ye Zi smiled innocently and said, "Grandpa, what kind of thing, is it fun?"

Looking at Ye Zi's childish smile, Ye Tianmin couldn't afford to be angry with him. But Ye Zi finally agreed that Ye Tianmin would go to the ancestral hall tomorrow to test his spirit.
