Chapter 3: Mortals, Immortals
"Coming? This kid is all right, right? ”
"Look at what you said, there are more than 200 households in Huangxi Township, you inquire, who doesn't know the birthday of our Xiaoyun?"
"Harm! Isn't this afraid that someone will indiscriminately fill the number! ”
"That can't be, our Zhang family can't do that kind of lack of morality, you can rest assured!"
Zhang Yun stared blankly at the vermilion gate not far in front of him.
The door was covered with brass nails, which he always felt were not neatly inlaid and a little crooked.
What came to his ears was the voice of Li and Steward Liu's greetings, but Zhang Yun's mind was not on it, and he didn't care about the conversation between the two at all.
"Speaking of which, your Zhang family is also a well-known rich family in the township, are you really willing to sell this child to our Liu Mansion?"
Steward Liu glanced at the little Zhang Yun and asked with a smile.
"The world is too difficult, and we don't want to, but there is no way, there are more and more mouths to eat at home, and we can only reduce some of the burden on the family."
Li Shi pretended to sigh, his eyes glancing at the slave who was about to sell his body from time to time, and there was a hint of anxiety between his eyebrows.
Steward Liu, who had been observing her, pretended not to see through Li's lame acting skills, and when he saw the deed of sale handed over, he picked up a corner and glanced at it, flicked the paper with his right index finger, and handed it to Li.
"Okay, if there is no problem, then sign and draw, and after signing, he will have nothing to do with you."
Li took it with both hands and pretended to look at it, how could she recognize any words, she just picked it up and made a show.
Subsequently, Li handed over the deed of sale to Zhang Qing and asked him to sign it.
Zhang Qing also can't read, but this does not prevent him from signing and drawing directly.
The Liu family's reputation in the township has always been good, and they will not harm the township for this little money.
Moreover, the reason why he wanted to sell Zhang Yun was not that ten taels of silver, even if he was cheated, it was not unacceptable.
Soon, he signed it, and the deed of sale with the palm print was returned to Steward Liu.
After confirming it, it was confirmed that there was no problem with the deed of sale, and Steward Liu was also very straightforward, and directly took out a silver ingot from the money bag and threw it to Zhang Qing.
"That's it! The money and goods are clear, I took him in! ”
"Whoa! You walk slowly, be careful on the road. ”
Li's expression was flattering, holding his slightly bulging lower abdomen and nodding his waist.
At this moment, she can't see the arrogance at home at all, and the Li family at this time is like a humble maid who is smiling at her master.
Feeling the force coming from his shoulder, Zhang Yun retracted his gaze, followed Steward Liu's wishes, and followed into the big house.
From the beginning to the end of the transaction, he was quiet, not noisy or noisy.
Except for the somewhat dull expression, there is nothing worth caring about, just like an object, just existing in this world.
Seeing that Zhang Yun was too well-behaved, Steward Liu couldn't help but be surprised, he thought it would take some effort, but he didn't expect that this kid would follow him as soon as he pulled it.
"Don't you want to go back with your parents?"
Walking on the road, Steward Liu asked curiously.
Zhang Yun glanced up at him, and said blankly, "They are not my fathers and mothers." ”
"And who they are?"
"Eldest brother."
"Oh......" Steward Liu suddenly realized, and glanced back at the back of the two leaving, "No wonder." ”
He said that a good rich family, why should they sell their children to be slaves?
It's not the son who dares to sell, but the younger brother!
It's no wonder that this kid is about to become an adult, and if he doesn't sell it again, there will be a lot of trouble when the family is separated.
Satisfying his curiosity, Steward Liu stopped asking questions and led Zhang Yun to the inner court.
And at this time, the outside world caused a riot.
……
"Quick! Look! There seems to be something in the sky! ”
"It's Xianzhou! That's the fairy boat of Ziyang Mountain! ”
"Ziyang Mountain? What are the immortals of Ziyang Mountain doing here? ”
"This year seems to be the day when Ziyang Mountain accepts disciples, calculate the time, it's almost this time."
"Hey! Xianzhou seems to be about to fall to Liu's side, if you have children at home, try your luck! ”
……
As soon as Zhang Qing and his wife were about to go home, they saw a fairy boat flying by in the sky.
Hearing what the people around them were discussing, the two glanced at each other and ran towards the gate of Liu's mansion.
There are many others who are running like them.
Some of them are the same as Zhang Qing and his wife, the husband and wife run together, and some are with young children, and the villagers of the entire Huangxi Township seem to be rushing to the market, rushing to the gate of Liufu from all over the place.
……
In the inner courtyard of the Liu Mansion, the ruler of the Liu family gathered the children and lectured intensively.
"Master Liu is kind-hearted, and he can't see the suffering of the people!"
"I bought you here to give you a chance to change your fate!"
"If you are lucky enough to pass the test and enter the Immortal Gate, you must not forget today's kindness!"
"Otherwise, it's a white-eyed wolf that is inferior to a beast, and even the heavens can't spare you!"
Steward Liu's voice was fierce, with a black face, and he taught the children in the yard a lesson.
The children were frightened by his stern tone, and saw that a ghost crying wolf was about to begin.
Fortunately, at this time, a middle-aged man with a peaceful appearance walked out to ease the atmosphere of the scene.
"Alas! What are you talking about! Master Liu, do I do good deeds to make the children grateful to Dade? ”
Master Liu scolded him with a grin, then turned his head and smiled broadly at the children.
"Don't be afraid, with Master Liu here, he can't scare you, Master Liu, I, I will protect you."
Liu Fuxiang himself looks festive, has a very friendly face, and speaks very gently, which won the favor of the children present.
The bolder child even hid behind Liu Banxiang and grimaced at Steward Liu.
was so angry that Steward Liu's nostrils were white!
As for Liu Fuxiang, he always smiled, even if a child took a dirty hand and soiled his pants, he didn't mean to be angry.
A good lecture was interrupted by him like this, and it suddenly turned into a farce.
In the midst of their joy, a light and shadow suddenly flashed.
The dazzling light made everyone present subconsciously close their eyes.
And when they opened their eyes again, they saw a white shirt fluttering in the cold wind.
Take a closer look, what a peerless noble son!
The white face is handsome, the temperament is extraordinary, the white robe moves with the wind, together with the messy green silk hunting flying, the end is fairy fluttering, the spirit is flying.
"Immortal Family!"
Liu Fuxiang woke up from the shock, reacted immediately, and bowed.
A group of slaves who were guarding around followed suit one after another, bowed their hands, and called out respectfully: "Immortal family!" ”
The children did not know what was happening, they were either amazed, envious, or looked at each other in amazement, or imitated the gestures of adults and applied lame etiquette.
The scene was a little messy, but no one dared to make a sound and scold the children who were in a daze, for fear of disturbing the immortals and causing the immortals to displease.
But what is surprising is that this immortal family is not so ...... Inviolability.
Or rather, it can be described as approachable.
"Get up, you don't have to."
The young man said casually, and his slightly lazy voice seemed to have the effect of calming people's hearts and soothing people's restless hearts.
When everyone got up, the young man looked around with a smile on his face, and saw the school-age children present nodding secretly, and looking at Liu Fuxiang with a pair of smiling eyes.
"I've heard your name, Liu Fuxiang, right? Well done. ”
Liu Fuxiang was about to say a few polite words, but he saw the young man's arm flip, and a crowded money bag was thrown over.
Hurriedly took it, Liu Fuxiang smiled, nodded his head, and thanked him repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, it's an honor for the villain to be able to make it convenient for the immortal family, you are too polite."
"You should keep these flattery for the next extraditer."
The young man glanced at him, waved his sleeve towards the open space in the courtyard, and a clear and transparent bead appeared out of thin air about a meter above the ground.
"The rules are very simple, line up to touch the beads, the beads light up and stand on my left hand, the beads are not lit, where do you come from, where do you go back."
This was said to the children, a group of little radish heads had not yet woken up from the shock, and at this time they were still in a daze, and no one moved.
At this time, Zhang Yun took a step and walked straight to the glass beads.
"As long as you can light up the beads, can you become an immortal like the immortal?"
Zhang Yun walked and whispered to himself, he didn't think he would hear the answer.
But seeing the young man's lips lightly opened, he spat out a clearly recognizable word: "Maybe ......"
Hearing this, Zhang Yun paused, and then without hesitation, he put his hand on the bead without thinking about it before he got closer.
The moment he put his hand on it, the transparent glass beads bloomed with dazzling light.
The light flashes away, comes and goes as fast as it comes.
In the blink of an eye, it was gone.
"Is this a light up?"
Zhang Yun turned his head, his eyes looked at the young man fixedly, and his dim eyes gradually became bright.
"Count!" The young man raised his eyebrows and raised his chin to the left, "Come and stand." ”
"Okay."
Zhang Yun nodded, said no more, and stood quietly beside the young man.
A pair of big dark eyes observed Liu Fuxiang with interest, and his eyes kept going back and forth between the young man and Liu Fuxiang.
"What are you looking at without looking at other people's test results?"
The young man obviously didn't look at Zhang Yun, but as if he had seen through his movements, he asked directly.
Glancing left and right, to make sure that the young man was asking himself, Zhang Yun licked his lips and replied in a low voice: "That Liu is in charge, my sister-in-law is in front of him, flattering like a dog." ”
"And then?" The youth asked again.
Zhang Yun glanced at Liu Fuxiang cautiously, and said in an undetectable voice: "That Master Liu, he is as well-behaved as a little milk dog in front of you. ”
"Hahahaha......"
The young man was amused by Zhang Yun and laughed breathlessly, "So, are you looking at this?" ”
Zhang Yun thought about it seriously and replied, "Yes!" ”
