Chapter 1: The Mysterious Woman

In the south of Dongzhou, in a small town, there are dozens of families living in it, most of them are still well fed and clothed, and can barely survive, while a few people live a luxurious life, drunk and dreaming of death.

There was a sudden sound of "bell" at the gate of the town, and the deafening sound of the sheath broke the calm of the town, and on the street of the town, which was originally a little noisy, a woman came, she held a young man about ten years old in her right hand, and held the long sword in the blood-red scabbard in her left hand and walked slowly from a distance.

The appearance and dress of the two are very different from the plain cotton clothes of ordinary people, especially the woman, she is wearing a purple and red dress, tall, fair-skinned, and beautiful, but her face is as pale as paper without blood, which looks a little sickly, but it is difficult to hide her peerless elegance.

The young man who was led was wearing a gray-blue short robe, his face was immature, his eyes were dark and translucent, but his face was full of maturity and indifference that he should not have at his age, his lips were pursed, and he looked like a person who was not close, but it made people can't help but get close.

Soon the appearance of the two strangers attracted the attention of many people on the street, and many people stopped what they were doing and looked this way, and there was a lot of discussion.

"Where did the rich daughter come from? Why haven't you heard of it all this time? A young man looked at the woman curiously.

"I don't know, but her temperament and appearance are very amazing, and she doesn't look like an ordinary person, I don't know which family's daughter it is, how can she come to a small town like ours at this time? It's weird! “

A short and fat middle-aged old man in the crowd, dressed in brocade clothes and jade belts, looked different from the clothes worn by ordinary residents, he slowly stood out from the crowd and looked at his face, and suddenly panicked, the old man turned his head and shouted loudly to the residents behind him.

"It's Danxian-sama who is here, hurry up, meet Danxian-sama!"

"Old man, how did you recognize me as a Dan Immortal?" The woman didn't care about the residents who were stunned, but looked at the kneeling old man in front of her and asked lightly.

"Back to the fairy, look at your extraordinary temperament, the old man is just guessing, your identity must be extraordinary, but you can rest assured, the old man will never reveal your identity to outsiders, and the old man will also ask the people not to say it to outsiders, please don't blame the fairy." The middle-aged old man hurriedly replied respectfully, his words with a taste of half fear and half flattery.

Then the old man knelt on the floor paved with big bluestone and asked in a frightened whisper: "Anyway, what is the matter with the fairy's visit to this town, and the local pavilion chief below, what does the fairy command?" ”

The woman spoke softly: "Excuse me, this gentleman asks you to help raise the child in front of me, of course, I didn't let you raise it for nothing." As she spoke, the woman put the sword back, and dozens of taels of gold appeared in her hand, floating in the palm of her hand, and then fell to the ground.

When the old man looked at this gold, his eyes were green, this is real gold, wouldn't he have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime? It's pie in the sky that has hit us.

The old man hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Thank you" Thank you for the fairy's reward, the villain will definitely do his best to raise this child as an adult and live up to the fairy's love! As the old man spoke, he was already thinking about how to make a fortune with the gold in his hand.

The people behind the old man were staring wide-eyed, their faces full of disbelief. Although they are ordinary people in the local area, they also know the difference between mortals and monks, once they become Danxian in their hearts, they are god-like existences, and they mortals are ants, in their hearts, the difference between mortals and gods is eternal and unchanging.

And people also aspire to become Dan Immortals, but how easy is this to say? Based on their cultivation qualifications alone, these people either have no money or qualifications, but there is no place for them to cultivate, and they can only be the lowest laborers if they have no power or power. But after so many years, they had only seen Dan Xian once, but that was enough.

The people who reacted quickly did not dare to look directly, for fear of provoking the displeasure of the fairy in front of them, and some lowered their heads or even knelt.

"Old sir, please hand over these things to my child, and then hand them over to him when he arrives at the "general horn", you can't open it" The woman said lightly, and with a wave of her white and delicate palm, a box with gold trim and intricate patterns carved on it appeared on the ground, exuding a faint golden light.

"Fairy, the villain will do his best to raise Ling Gongzi to adulthood, and live up to the fairy's trust, please rest assured." The old man said again.

"If you let my child be wronged in the slightest, there is no need for this town to exist" Speaking of this, the woman's tone suddenly became cold, and a strong coercion spread to all sides, causing the old man and the others to be shocked, and they fell directly to the ground.

"Fairy, how dare we, the villain will take strict care of Ling Gongzi and not let him be wronged in the slightest," the old man said in a trembling voice.

The woman did not look at the people lying on the ground, but chanted a spell in her mouth, a six-sided spell appeared in her hand, the sword pointed to the sky, the spell instantly burned, turned into a flame, floating in her hand, she raised her hand and threw the fireball into the air, instantly turned into infinite flames, spread in all directions, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the old man and others were already frightened.

The woman didn't say much, turned to look at the young man who was beside her, his face was calm, and what was surprising was that the young man saw the scene in front of him, and his expression did not change at all, as if he had long been used to it.

"Xi'er, from now on, my mother and father, can no longer accompany you, I rarely come to see you since I was a child, my father and mother owe you too much, I know in my heart that this is irreparable, but we as parents still hope that Xi'er can live carefree, free, no need to be constrained by the world, do what you want to do." The woman touched the top of the young man's soft head and said, her voice was full of infinite pain and reluctance, she looked at her child, tears couldn't help but flow, and her eyes showed a motherly light.

At this moment, the woman is no longer as high-minded, indifferent and ruthless fairy as before, but like a mother instructing her child, the love and warmth revealed in her eyes made the young man feel warm, his eyes gradually moistened, and crystal clear tears rolled down from his eyes.

"Xi'er doesn't cry" The woman watched the young man's tears continue to slide, and hurriedly reached out to wipe away his tears, and said comfortingly.

"Well, mother, Xi'er doesn't cry" The young man hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and smiled, his smile was as pure and clean as a snow lotus in the sun, beautiful and moving.

"If I can survive this difficulty, I believe that my mother will no longer be troubled by the affairs of the evil sect, and she will no longer have to run around for the evil sect, and she will no longer have to worry about being afraid, and she will no longer have to worry about it every day." The woman muttered to herself, a determined look on her face.

"Well, Xi'er also believes that one day our family will finally be reunited, and my father will be able to smile at Jiuquan under the Yellow Spring, and then our family of three will definitely be able to live happily together, if I return from cultivation, I will definitely cultivate well and resurrect my father one day." The boy laughed.

The woman was slightly stunned, her face instantly turned pale and colorless, a rich sadness and sadness flashed in her eyes, she suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, sat cross-legged on the ground and began to recover, her face was as white as paper, dense beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, her face was pale, and her eyes had an extremely painful look.

Seeing this, the old man was horrified, and anxiously shouted, "Fairy, are you okay, do you want to ask the doctor to come and see!" ”

"Mortal doctors can't see that." The woman shook her head and said in a somewhat weak voice.

"I'll leave this child to you," said the woman sitting on the ground, turning into a ray of light and disappearing without a trace, as if everything was an illusion just now.

The boy was left to look at the disappeared woman in front of him blankly, and couldn't help but lose his mind.

The afterglow of the sunset, the sunset is like blood, the whole valley is reflected like blood, and the clouds are floating in the air, like the bloody sunset reflecting the broken clouds on the horizon, making the originally beautiful and abnormal scenery look more desolate and sad.

The figure of the woman appeared in the alley, her face still pale as paper, and she looked extremely haggard.

"Come out!" The woman glanced around and said lightly, her voice full of indifference, as if she didn't care about the hidden people around her.

"Hehe, it is worthy of being the most powerful sect leader of the evil sect, the wife of Lian Nanxi, even if she is seriously injured, she can easily see through my concealment technique" A man wearing a snow-white Dao robe, a Dao crown on his head, and a jade flute on his waist slowly walked out of the shadows, his face was slightly tired, but he did not have the slightest panic, and looked at Lian Nanxi with a shallow smile on his face and said.

"Tsk, decent masters also engage in sneak attacks, you sanctimonious hypocrites, I really despise them," Lian Nanxi said mockingly.

"Don't say much, your husband is dead, I sent a master to encircle and suppress, accompany him on the road!" The man said.

Lian Nanxi snorted coldly: "It's not up to you whether it's life or death."

……

"Childe, I don't know who your name is," the old man asked, looking at the handsome young man in front of him, his tone full of awe.

"Under the surname Yu, the name Xiqing, just call me Yuqing." The young man said, his voice was crisp, like a mountain stream spring, giving people a fresh and comfortable feeling, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

"Childe's good name" The old man exclaimed, his eyes flashed with a touch of approval, this name is really good, not only poetic, but also very in line with the young man in front of him, especially these two words are written very expressively, every stroke seems to touch the depths of people's hearts.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, it's not early, let's go home for dinner!" The old man turned and shouted to the crowd behind him who had risen from the floor.

There was a commotion from the crowd as if they were discussing what had just happened, and from time to time there were a few words of discussion in the crowd, and it was clear that they had not yet recovered from what had just happened.

"Pavilion Chief, you are really lucky, if you can get any opportunities from this kid, then you can embark on the road of cultivating immortals?" In the crowd, an old man with thief eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes walked by the pavilion chief's side and whispered.

When the pavilion chief heard this, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face, and then he disappeared, turned his head to look at the young man in front of him, and sighed.

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, let's take one step at a time!" After speaking, the pavilion chief pushed the old man away, took the young man's hand to evacuate the crowd, and prepared to take the young man back to the courtyard where he lived.

"Childe, let's meet your new home with the old man, what do you think?" The old man looked at the young man in front of him and asked.

"Hmm"

The boy nodded, looking at the somewhat narrow street in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
