Chapter 1 Opportunity
Desolate, long-standing, broken, ruined.
The morning sun was born, shining on an empty and silent plain, reflecting the boundless silence and desolation.
At this time, there was a call in the distance, this was a familiar voice, and it also let Gu Fang know that it was time to go back.
He, Gu Fang, is a time-traveler with some experience, although this identity seems to be very special and powerful, but he still can't change his name that sounds feminine, and every time he proposes to change his name, he will be ruthlessly ignored. After all, in the eyes of parents who have lived in a small mountain village all their lives, this name taken by the elders in the village is naturally the most suitable name for Gu Fang in this life.
Now he is just an ordinary child, who sneaked out when the adults were busy, and was found to be arrested after a while. Gu Fang knew that her hips were going to suffer again tonight.
There is supernatural power in this world.
A few years ago, there was a scream in the deep mountains, and all the livestock in the village were immediately frightened and fell to the ground, and even Gu Fang was in a daze and lost consciousness. It wasn't until the elders in the village used the fresh flesh and blood they hunted to start the big sacrifice that Gu Fang woke up.
After that, the village did not change much, and it returned to its normal appearance the day before, except that the villagers who had gone out to hunt and collect firewood during that time stayed at home.
Gu Fang also woke up from that time.
Gu Fang once inquired on the grounds of the naughty child's curiosity, but was warned by his parents not to think about it again, and the people in the village were secretive about it.
However, Gu Fang still determined the existence of the transcendent from other aspects, such as the fact that there were never wild beasts within a radius of three miles from the village, and some legends about immortals and demons passed down from mouth to mouth, and for example, Gu Fang would notice a trace of strange fluctuations during every annual festival.
It's just that although Gu Fang has Su Hui, his apparent age is really not very old, and Gu Fang doesn't dare to expose his specialness in this wild style of different time and space, so every time he explores, it ends in nothing.
However, he still did not give up, because from the beginning to the end, he resolutely embarked on this road of time and space with an uncertain future for the sake of transcendence and immortality.
He has stood at the pinnacle of his life, and can easily enjoy all kinds of precious things in the world, which is still material enjoyment, and if he wants, he can also become a rising star in politics, a superstar, and a big philanthropist.
People are always hard to satisfy.
When Gu Fang had many, many in the source time and space, he, just like those emperors in ancient times, began to pursue immortality.
Unlike those emperors who were deceived and died depressed, Gu Fang got a "chance", and after experiencing several worlds, he came to this world and became the current Gu Fang.
The ruins in front of you are a place in the legends of the villagers that is suspected to have been spent by immortals many years ago, and it is also the main reason why the village chose to build here in the first place.
It's just that a few years have passed, and Gu Fang has never gone in to take the Gu exam once. Now he is within the three-mile boundary of the village, but the ruins are three miles away from the village, Gu Fang, who is still a child, naturally will not risk his life for the rumors that are difficult to distinguish between true and false in the mouths of the villagers.
Outside, it's too dangerous.
Gu Fang has seen several times in the past few years that the villagers who had gone out hunting walked out and were carried back. He's still too young.
"Da Fang, why did you come here again. Go back quickly, the elder said that the whole village should gather at the ancestral shrine! ”
A rugged and sturdy adult woman hurriedly ran over, it was Gu Fang's biological mother. To Gu Fang's surprise, this time his mother did not beat and scold him, but asked him to go to the ancestral shrine to gather.
Something seems to be going to happen.
With a little curiosity, Gu Fang followed his mother to the gate of the ancestral hall, and when he arrived at the gate of the ancestral hall, many villagers had already come. And it seems that the children of every family have been brought by adults, the oldest of whom are almost adults, and the youngest is actually a baby who was carried by a woman.
Before the old man came, his mother greeted the villagers and began to talk about gossip, while Gu Fang found an open space next to the door to wait.
In the past few years, he seems to be a little different, he does not play much with the children around him, but often runs to the old people and idle men in the village to inquire about those stories and legends, and likes to wander around the village, and the most daring thing is that he dares to run to the ruins at the edge of the village to inspect.
As an "old man" whose mental age is almost over 100 years old, Gu Fang can't be like a young child who either plays in the mud or catches insects all day long, especially after discovering that there is an extraordinary place here. So he became a naughty monkey in the eyes of adults, and a "lonely" lonely weirdo in the eyes of children.
"Look, it's that obedient Xiaofang, he's still so weird!"
"I run outside the village every day, and I get beaten every day...
。。。。。。
Gu Fang's ears were very good, and he naturally heard the words of the little broken child next to him, but he only glanced at it, and then stopped paying attention to these people.
His combined age was older than their grandfather, so he was naturally not bored enough to meet them. The mental age is too old, and it is okay to tease the child occasionally, but he can't stand it for a long time.
It is precisely for this reason that Gu Fang and his biological parents are not very close, and they do not have the admiration of normal children, but have a faint sense of alienation. More than once, he had overheard his parents preparing to start another trumpet conversation.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, someone finally came over this time."
"Yes, it's a pity, my pillar is already an adult, and he was only fifteen last year, it's a pity."
"Sister-in-law of the Qing family, this kind of thing is still fateful, I hope it won't be like last time...
Listening to the conversations of the old people around her, Gu Fang finally found some fragmentary information from the topics of "what to eat for dinner" and "what to eat at noon", but the information obtained was very small.
A guess swirled in Gu Fang's heart, gnawing at his heart like a worm.
About a quarter of an hour had passed, and everyone in the village had arrived. Although Gu Village is a village, there are quite a few people, and a large open space in front of the ancestral shrine and several nearby paths are already full of people.
Gu Fang found something that seemed to confirm his guess, those villagers with children were close to the ancestral shrine, while the villagers without children seemed to be standing farther away, as if they were coming to see the excitement.
"Here it is, here it is, here come the elders and the guests! Hurry up and make your debut, don't get in the way! ”
At this time, a loud roar sounded from not far away, and the person who roared was the village chief of Gu Village, and he was also the strongest hunter in the village, except for the elders, it was the village chief who had the final say.
In Gu Fang's plan, in a few years, he will use some knowledge from his previous life to find an opportunity to get close to the village chief, and take the opportunity to learn hunting skills, so as to prepare for going out of Gu Village and exploring in the future.
Not long after the village chief's words fell, Gu Fang saw that the villagers around the entrance of the ancestral hall had retreated to make way for an empty road, originally Gu Fang also wanted to go to see what was going on with the elders and guests, but before he could squeeze out, the people around him took him back more than ten steps, and now he couldn't squeeze in even if he wanted to.
Gu Fang's current small body couldn't see what was happening, and now she could only stay where she was with her mother and wait.
"Squeak—"
The door of the ancestral hall was opened, and the elders and foreign guests had already walked in, and after the elders and the village chief appeared, the villagers were quiet, even the woman with the most broken mouths remained quiet at this time.
After about a cup of tea, Gu Fang clearly heard the rough roar of the village chief: "Gu Xiaoya's family, come in!" ”
Gu Xiaoya is also a hunter in the village, and his child seems to have been born only two months ago.
It didn't take long for Gu Fang to hear a voice from the front,
"It's out, it's out!"
"It looks like it's the same."
"Alas~"
"It's okay, it's just the beginning."
"Whatever the noise, be quiet. Next, Gu Dashu's family, come in! ”
The conversation was suppressed by the village chief, who called the next person in.
After a while, there was another sound of talking in front of him, but the voice was much quieter than before, and Gu Fang's hearing could only hear about the same situation as before.
"Next, Gu Yu."
。。。。。。
The village chief's roar sounded dozens of times, and Gu Fang deduced from what he knew about the situation that the village chief called in the rows according to the age of each child.
"In that case, it's going to be your turn soon."
Gu Fang thought in her heart, but none of the dozens of families before met the requirements, and the conditions seemed to be very harsh.
The ancestral shrine cannot be opened without major events in the village, and the people who are called in are all school-age children, and the information in the village population and extraordinary legends seem to point in one direction.
"Is it really testing certain qualifications, is it really related to transcendence?"
It's about to be his turn, even with Gu Fang's mental age, he is confused because of the speculation and concern about the transcendent in his heart.
"Next, Gu Wei's family."
The village chief's roar sounded again, but his voice seemed to be getting more and more irritable.
Gu Wei, Gu Fang's father.
