Chapter 19: Smiles
Mountain Wind Hunting.
Below the line of sight, there were large clouds of white mist stirred by the mountain wind.
Where the fog opens, the bustling and majestic mountain city below can be faintly seen.
Liu Heng just squatted on a big stone not far from the mountain road, and from time to time people who trekked up the mountain turned their heads to look at him, but no one cared about his existence.
No one even knew that he had just gotten a "Ding" verdict.
This basically means that he will have no chance with the path of cultivating immortals in this life.
However, Chen Tao, who was greatly disappointed, did not show any dissatisfaction, perhaps because he was broad-minded enough, maybe he didn't care about the "small money" like hundreds of knife coins, or maybe it was ...... At least among the four brothers and sisters, there is also a third girl Chen Pheasant, after all, he got a judgment of "B Zhong", which proved to be a good talent, so his descent and investment this time were not completely useless.
In short, after Liu Heng got a "Ding" evaluation, although he couldn't hide it at all, and he didn't hide his disappointment, in the end, he didn't speak ill of him, and even after coming out of the room, he specially explained to Liu Heng the origin of this "Ding" judgment, and personally told a person on duty to take Chen Pheasant, Chen Le, and Liu Zhang to go through the next entry procedures.
He is already the most cultivated of all the high-ranking people Liu Heng has ever seen.
It's just that...... What a leaky pot!
Liu Heng picked up the piece of paper again and stared at the word "Ding" seriously for a long time.
A wry smile finally appeared on his face.
Who lives without dreams?
What's more, although he has been a little beggar since he can remember, Liu Heng has never been a beggar who is willing to beg for food honestly and step by step.
I can't remember how many times, when he was hungry, he always listened to other beggars, or people talking in the streets, talking about those immortals, talking about those immortal cultivators, and then telling him to forget about hunger unconsciously.
Especially those inspirational stories of hard cultivation and finally becoming immortals, inspired him again and again, so that although he was lying in a pile of grass, he still dared to fantasize: he will not be just a little beggar in the end, he will eventually embark on a successful road, proving that even if a person is born a beggar, he will not be a beggar all his life.
He once thought: When I die, I may not be able to have children and grandchildren, I may not be able to buy a wide range of properties, or I may not be famous in the world, but at least I will not spend my life in inaction.
However, all this past, dreams, ambitions, expectations...... It all vanished at this moment.
The clouds are rolling at your feet.
From the dust, return to the dust.
He thought: In this world, there are many people who are born ordinary, but they are unwilling to be ordinary, and they will be extraordinary, but I am not.
I'm just an ordinary person.
Chen Tao said that about half of the ten people who came to test their talents were "Ding". But that also shows that there are at least half of the other people, who are either A, B, or C, such as Chen Lesanya and Liu Zhang.
Even "C" like Chen Le and Liu Zhang at least has an extraordinary foundation.
He just thought and thought like this, and his mind couldn't help but wear out.
Even at this time, even with subconscious restraint, he still couldn't help but feel a trace of envy and jealousy for his three younger siblings.
But soon, he suddenly woke up: Liu Heng, Liu Heng, what's wrong with you!
That's your brother and sister, that's your relatives who begged with you, fought with people, and risked their lives to go fishing with you in Onozawa, and you swore to protect them for the rest of your life!
They are about to embark on a broad road of life, at this time, you should be happy for them, you should be proud of them, you should show your smile from the bottom of your heart for them!
How can you be jealous?
You can be poor or mediocre, but you must not be so narrow-minded!
It's a passerby, with such an opportunity, it should be worth congratulating, not to mention that it's your younger brothers and sisters, isn't their joy also your joy?
Thinking like this, a smile finally appeared on his face that he hadn't seen for a long time.
The originally gloomy mood has gradually become cheerful again.
He thought: In my life, I may finally be ordinary, but at least, I have three younger brothers and sisters, all of whom are immortal cultivators, and they are all brought up by me, although they are not my flesh and blood relatives, but they are better than my own brothers and sisters!
They are my greatest pride!
............
It was nearly noon, Chen Le, Chen Pheasant and Liu Zhang, who had finally completed all the formalities, finally found Liu Heng who was squatting on the big stone next to the mountain road.
The three of them each had their own worries in their hearts, approached him, called him, and he stood up and turned his head for the first time - the three little brothers and sisters saw the bright smile on the face of their eldest brother.
He jumped down easily, approached a few steps, and asked, "It's all done?"
The three little brothers and sisters all nodded and said in unison, "It's done!"
Liu Heng's eyes looked at Chen Pheasant with an inquiring look - this is their old habit, Sanya is fast-talking and talks a lot, usually Liu Heng asks about things, and she rushes to answer.
At this time, Sanya really subconsciously replied: "The second brother and the fourth brother were assigned to a place called the Board of Supervisors, we asked the person who led the way, and it is said that they will be assigned to various places on this mountain to do some miscellaneous work, but every five and every ten there is a big lecture, they have the opportunity to listen to the class three times a month, and the door will also give some convenience in cultivation, and there will be a chance to enter the public school in the future." I...... It is a direct public school for three years, and after three years, if you perform well, you can be allowed to worship a certain disciple in the mountain gate. ”
"Good, good, good!" Liu Heng laughed heartily.
Sighing with satisfaction, he looked at Chen Le, then at Liu Zhang, and said with a smile: "In the entire Daye City, only four families dare to play the signboard of 'Immortal Family', now good, our family has three at once!"
After a pause, he patiently advised: "It doesn't matter whether you are doing miscellaneous labor or going to public school, at least you are out of the countryside, which is a good thing, but you should not be complacent, because everyone around you is as talented as you, or even more talented than you." Since you have this opportunity, you must remember that you have to work hard in everything to live up to this opportunity!"
I don't know why, it's clear that Liu Heng is just telling them very seriously, just like parents who send their children to school, but at this moment, the three of them all bowed their heads, and no one responded.
Suddenly, Chen Le said, "Brother, I don't want to stay here as a handyman, I want to go home with you!"
