Chapter 4 - The Mystery of the Boy's Origins
After the family competition, Ping Fan didn't go to the academy to continue his cultivation courses, but proposed to Qin Xueying to teach himself some mortal martial arts, at least he could have the ability to protect himself when he went out to fight mortals.
Qin Xueying also took over the important task of training her younger brother, but in the eyes of outsiders, the training of a sixteen-year-old child is simply a dream
But every morning, people will see a boy with a sandbag and a flat burden on his shoulder, shuttling between the Qin family's compound and the well road in the back mountain.
The three people who had bullied him sometimes watched him run from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain with a puzzled face, back and forth dozens of times, and then ran left and right in the compound, back and forth, dozens of laps.
Day after day, year after year, once a teenager is now fourteen, under Qin Xueying's careful teaching, he has gradually mastered most of the basic blade moves in the mortal world, and his physical strength is far superior to that of ordinary people, and he has even practiced restrained qi and can wield a slight air current.
The thin and short man who used to be weak and couldn't help the wind is now seven feet tall, and the long-term exercise has also allowed him to develop a strong muscle, and his appearance is becoming more and more handsome.
One day after the training, the teenager would go to the Qin family's library to read all kinds of historical records about the immortal cultivation world, magic weapons, talismans, pills, and formations, and these related books became his pastime after tea and dinner.
In his heart, he always hoped that he could get a great opportunity to become an immortal cultivator, and when the time came, he would be able to fulfill the promise he made with Qin Xueying back then.
Thinking of this, the young man seemed to have an idea about the spirit stone in the Qin family's ancestral hall, so he pulled it aside one day after Qin Xueying's cultivation was completed
"Huh? Ay? What, you think, do you want to enter the ancestral hall to see the Heavenly Spirit Stone?? ”
After listening to the young man's words, Qin Xueying was suddenly a little surprised, because the ancestral hall is usually closed, and there are many guards, even Qin Xueying, she is not qualified to enter there on weekdays, but if she can find out the result of her younger brother, thinking of this, she nodded and agreed to the matter.
Because one evening, Qin Xueying took the ordinary to take advantage of the fact that the guards at the back door were confused by the wine she brought, and the two sisters and brothers quietly flowed into the ancestral hall.
After passing through a narrow road, the two officially walked into the center of the ancestral hall.
In the ancestral hall at night, the moon shines through the small hole in the tiles at the top of the afterglow, the two carefully observe the ancestral hall without a person, and can't help but sigh at the meticulous craftsmanship of the predecessors and the ingenuity of the spirit of ingenuity, from the stands to the test field, every place can be made by handmade patterns, the two of them walked and walked to the road, enshrined in the place of the ancestors of the Qin family
When Qin Xueying came, he pulled Pingfan and said: "This is a place to worship the ancestors of the Qin family, I heard that only the head of the family and the elders of the family can come in here." ”
Ordinary looked at the large and small tablets around him, and the lamp burning with golden flames in front of the tablet and asked a little intently
"Sister, what are these things that have been burning?"
The young man pointed to the lamp in front of him and asked Qin Xueying, Qin Xueying saw it and hurriedly replied: "This is the golden jade glass lamp that the head of the family has guarded for generations, it is said that it will not be extinguished as long as it is lit for decades. ”
Qin Xueying said as she spoke, and couldn't help but look at the ordinary person in front of her, whether it was height or size, which had already surpassed her by a lot, and said with some relief
"I really didn't expect that after a while, you have been in the Qin family for more than 14 years, and eight years ago you were still a weak little child, and now when you look at it, my sister is about to look a little short in front of you."
Ping Fan glanced at Qin Xueying and said with some embarrassment: "Haha, my sister said that I laughed, even so, I am just an ordinary person who knows a little kung fu." ”
Qin Xueying looked at the young man and didn't say anything, for fear that he would recall that he couldn't cultivate immortals and ruin the time of his sister and brother, so he took the other party's wrist and came to a stone door, and used the bronze key in his hand to open the secret door in front of him.
The two walked in, and what was placed inside was the Heaven Replenishing Spirit Stone used for testing, at first glance, it was a concave and convex stone slab, but the aura emanating from its interior, Qin Xueying, who was an immortal cultivator, could naturally feel the power it emanated.
The young man gently stroked his palm on the stone tablet without any reaction, while Qin Xueying on the side told the young man intentionally or unintentionally
"Maybe you can try to close your eyes and pray to the stele in your mind."
Following Qin Xueying's words, the young man stood up straight, his eyes slightly closed and exhaled a little air, concentrating all his attention and praying with full concentration.
When the young man prayed, the spirit stone at this time seemed to have some kind of subtle reaction, and a golden pattern began to appear around it, and slowly the golden lines turned into air currents and began to appear around the young man's body, like a true spiritual energy, which began to be continuously instilled into the young man's body.
"Ah!!!!!h
Qin Xueying turned his head and found that something was wrong, and when he was about to step forward and pull it away, he was instantly bounced open by an invisible barrier, and the young man felt a trace of pain, so he couldn't help but scream, and the painful sound seemed to tear his whole person apart.
"What the hell is this? Ordinary! Seeing that the situation was not good, Qin Xueying rushed forward again to save the young man, but rushed forward again, and it was still useless.
As the golden lines of the stele were injected into the young man's body little by little, the ordinary who was tormented by the pain fell into a deep coma.
After the golden air flow was poured into the young man's body, he collapsed to the ground covered in injuries, without any vitality.
Qin Xueying stepped forward with a worried face and hugged him in front of him, and put a healing pill suitable for mortals into his mouth, looking at the bloodless young man on his face, Qin Xueying shouted in panic with tears in his eyes
"No, no, no, don't be like this, it's all my sister's fault, my sister shouldn't have brought you, ordinary, you should answer me, answer my sister, okay? Sister Ying. ”
The sudden change made the girl worry about the "younger brother" in front of her for the first time, Qin Xueying began to constantly press the young man's chest, and she didn't care about the touch between her lips, and began to continue to treat the ordinary who fell into a coma.
"Don't be like this, don't be fine, brother, you must not be fine."
In the boy's dream, he was in a pitch-black space on the side, and the silence around him was terrifying, and even the air around him seemed to be imprisoned
"Me? Am I dead? ”
The boy looked around, and there was nothing there, as if he was the only one in the entire space.
"Ha, it's curiosity or cats after all."
When the young man was sighing, he suddenly heard a familiar voice from above, and when he looked up, a picture like an image appeared above the young man, in the picture, Qin Xueying hugged herself into her arms with tears on her face, and hugged her lifeless home very sadly.
"Sister? Is it? Is this telling me that she feels sad for me? I'm sorry I didn't get what we promised."
The boy became more and more accepting of the time when it seemed that he was really "dead", and began, sitting cross-legged in place
At this time, a golden light appeared in front of his eyes, and slowly the golden light transformed into his own appearance, and he was also sitting cross-legged, but the other party was in a suspended state.
Just when the young man was a little stunned, the golden self suddenly rushed over.
In an instant, the boy opened his eyes again, breathing in the earthly air.
Seeing that the young man had woken up, Qin Xueying hugged him into his arms and kept crying
"Great, you're alive, you're alive......"
Seeing this, the young man was relieved to learn Qin Xueying's action of touching his head, and said softly
"I'm sorry, sister, I'm worried about you, I just, accidentally fell asleep, and then I heard your cry, and woke up, you see, I'm fine now, nothing at all!"
The young man pretended to be calm, but he was knocked to the ground by Qin Xueying's powder punch, wiped away the tears on his face and said, "If you really have any accidents, how can I explain to my father." ”
When the two of them were arguing, the Heaven Replenishing Spirit Stone in front of them seemed to have a slight reaction, and began to show some words just like the day of the test, but the speed was very slow.
Seeing this, Qin Xueying motioned for the young man to step forward again, and after the young man did so, the golden words began to appear continuously, and the last row of another secret about the young man was made public again in this continent after fourteen years
"Chu Tianfan - Ten Thousand Ancient Immortal Spirit Root - Cultivation is unknown."
"Chu Tianfan? Is it me? The young man looked at the results, and before the two could react, the text turned into a golden light supporting the top of the ancestral hall, and under the strong impact, the entire top of the ancestral hall was broken through a huge hole by a blink of golden light and made a deafening explosion.
With the sound of explosions, the Qin family's realm trembled slightly like a five-magnitude earthquake, but these two times, the entire Qin family began to feel uneasy, and the guards guarding the ancestral hall rushed into the ancestral hall for the first time, and Qin Xueying, who saw that something was wrong, took the young man and ran away from the scene, but the black ring in the young man's hand was left on the ancestral hall worship platform without paying attention.
