Chapter 4: A Remnant Soul
I saw that the person in the mirror was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with beautiful eyebrows, long hair and a shawl, and he looked like a handsome scholar, and between the eyebrows, there was a vigorous heroic spirit.
Liang Yu was still satisfied with his appearance, and just being a dozen years younger, it was already a lot of money for him! Putting down the bronze mirror, he then put his hand into the cloth pocket again, and took out a few more thread-bound books from it.
The book is full of Bagu literature and Confucian classics, Liang Yu, as a new youth in the 21st century, naturally can't stand these, but he found that the title page of each book has a rather delicate word "Liang Yu", thinking of the innkeeper calling himself a Liang Gongzi, he quickly understood that the owner of his body should be this Liang Yu.
Liang Yu, Liang Yu, I Liang Yu don't want to occupy the magpie's nest, but I'm afraid that by the time I reach the realm of chaos, you'll already be gone, right? Liang Yu thought a little self-comfortingly.
"Huh, I can't see that you little scholar still have such a hobby?" Hu Xiaoxiao took advantage of Liang Yu's flipping through the book, and took out a lot of wooden ornaments from the small pocket sewn on the side of the cloth bag, "You made it yourself? This craft is a little flattering..."
Liang Yu took a look, these ornaments are really made, and the materials are just ordinary jujube wood, willow wood, pear wood, etc., he naturally doesn't know what's going on, and Hu Xiaoxiao doesn't need him to answer, he picked out a pendant that looks like a fox from it, shook it in front of him and said: "That's it, I'll use it to make a home!"
Liang Yu looked at Hu Xiaoxiao inexplicably and said, "An family?"
"Hehe, although there is not much left of cultivation, some small spells can still be used!" Hu Xiaoxiao said a little excitedly, "You have a good look!"
After Hu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he turned into a red light and got into the fox pendant made of willow wood!
"You wear it on your body, I don't have to show people with this half of the fox body, it saves a lot of trouble!" Hu Xiaoxiao's voice quickly came out of the willow card.
Liang Yu naturally had never seen such a thing, such a living little girl really got into the willow wood card that was not as big as a palm!
He was in a daze, Hu Xiaoxiao continued to say proudly: "It's not too early, you're almost recovering, right? Rest early, let's go to Mount Tai tomorrow, that's where this great immortal comeback!"
"Huh?" Although Liang Yu was a little surprised by Hu Xiaoxiao's sudden order, as a newcomer, he didn't know what better choice he had, so he had to agree first.
Liang Yu leaned over and blew out the oil lamp on the table, and naturally walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, suddenly finding that before he knew it, he had recovered his freedom of movement.
He couldn't help but feel a trace of joy in his heart: since Qin Ruoming's half of the pill was so magical, then Hu Xiaoxiao's words were also very likely to be true!
Now for Liang Yu, how to travel back to the modern era must be clueless, so although he misses his parents, he can only come and be at ease, and if he can follow Hu Xiaoxiao to break through this Xiuzhen world at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it may not be a bad thing!
Thinking of this, Liang Yu has already begun to fantasize about his future, under the guidance of Xiao Xiao Daxian, he will step by step on the road of the strong, like what is written in the fantasy novel!
Although I dare not say that I am the only one, at least I can pretend to be able to pretend to my heart's content13 in front of all mortals, isn't it beautiful?
It's so happy to think about! so happy that I can't sleep...
......
Sure enough, after tossing and turning for a long time, Liang Yu couldn't fall asleep, and he even had the heart to greet Hu Xiaoxiao and chat for a while, but when he looked at the willow card on the table, a sigh suddenly came from the direction of the foot of the bed!
"Ugh..."
Liang Yu's heart rose to his throat again, and he followed the sound to see a figure standing silently at the foot of the bed!
Thinking that he still had that blue light stunt, and that there was Hu Xiaoxiao in this house, Liang Yu barely suppressed the fear in his heart and said loudly: "Who?!"
"Brother Tai, don't be afraid... Student Liang Yu is polite..."Through the faint moonlight outside the window, a scholar wearing a square scarf and a straight jacket walked out of the shadow.
Liang Yu looked at Liang Yu's appearance, which was exactly the same as what he had just seen in the bronze mirror, but his face was bloodless, his face was haggard, and he didn't look malicious, so he said tentatively: "You... Where did it come from, and what did it come from?"
Liang Yu sighed again and said: "Alas, it's a shame to say! The student was supposed to take the test to gain fame and repay his parents' kindness, but today he was deceived by Zheng Lianshou and died. When the soul was about to disperse, I suddenly saw my brother enter my body and protect the major spiritual aperture of this body with his own seal, and at that time, the student was already introspective, so he took advantage of the chaos to attack the underworld child, so that this innate spiritual root could be preserved, and the student was left with this trace of remnant soul..."
Liang Yu said a little embarrassed: "Uh... I didn't mean to take over the magpie's nest, and it was an accident that I repelled the boy... It's all that aperture and a blue light..."
"That's right, that aperture is Brother Tai's own seal, and that blue light is driven by the student!" Liang Yu continued, "And it wasn't until the student's soul was detained by Zheng Lianshou that he saw that this body was actually a piece of spirit jade one finger wide and an inch long!"
"What?!" Liang Yu exclaimed, "You mean this body is actually a piece of jade? impossible, this is obviously flesh and blood..."
Liang Yu smiled and said: "This matter is incredible, but it is indeed a student who can see it with his own eyes! And if it wasn't for Brother Tai arriving in time at that time, I'm afraid that Zheng Lianshou and the Underworld Boy's trick would have succeeded!"
Liang Yu said as he spoke, and said in a slightly excited tone: "The student has never cultivated the true enlightenment, but when he was in danger, he had a sense with the spirit jade, and then he was able to manipulate the spirit jade chalcedony and turn it into a flying sword! At that time, the student not only had an epiphany of the art of turning the chalcedony into a flying sword, but also knew that the student was just a trace of spiritual wisdom born from the spirit jade that had been subjected to thousands of years of essence and moonlight..."
"I see..."Liang Yu nodded, and then asked again, "Then why are you looking for me at this time? Could it be that you want to expel me?"
Liang Yu still shook his head and smiled: "The student was tortured by Zheng Lianshou and the man in white before, but at this time, there is only a trace of remnant soul, and the sky will be dispersed at dawn... I think back to when the student was still in infancy, he was picked up by his mother in the mountains, and his parents treated the student as their own for 17 years, but five years ago, my father died violently, and the family fell into the middle of the road, and my old mother and I moved to the countryside and lived a hard life. Now on the way to the exam, the poor old mother has no one to support... Today, I just ask my brother Tainian to share the righteousness of the same body with me, and settle the old man properly... The students are very grateful!"
Liang Yu was about to politely refuse, but after the other party finished speaking, he bowed to the ground and blocked his mouth honestly. Thinking about it, as an outsider, he just took up other people's spiritual roots and bones, and he was indeed a little short-handed, so Liang Yu said quite righteously: "It is incumbent..."
Liang Yu heard these four words, and his face also showed a look of relief, and continued: "In this way, I also ask my brother to write down that the student's family lives twenty miles outside the north gate of Fushun City, Liangjiabao...
didn't wait for Liang Yu to say anything, only to see Liang Yu's figure gradually blurred, and then after a while, turned into countless fine light chips, reflecting the whole room with a faint white, and Liang Yu was also in a trance, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw the morning light entering the room, and the sky was already bright, it turned out that he fell asleep unconsciously last night...
When he woke up like this, Liang Yu didn't rush to get out of bed, he looked around and found that he was lying on the wooden bed in the inn.
The rooms are simply furnished, with a wooden window on the east side with an antique lattice in the window frame, and only a set of wooden tables and chairs in the middle of the room, on which is the cloth pocket from last night, next to which are the few thread-bound books and loose trinkets. In addition to these, all that was left in the room was a shelf in the corner, on which a normal vase was placed.
Everything in front of him made the original luck in Liang Yu's heart come to naught - when he woke up, he really couldn't return to modern times...
"That shouldn't be just a dream..."Liang Yu carefully combed through the long conversation with Liang Yu last night, thinking secretly, and then locked his eyes on the fox-shaped willow sign on the table that was taken out separately, and beckoned: "Xiao Xiao Daxian?
"Woke up so early, I thought you tossed and turned all night and would sleep until three poles in the morning!" Hu Xiaoxiao's voice came from the willow wood card, "Looking for me?"
Liang Yu sat on the edge of the bed and asked seriously: "You said yesterday that you had attained the Tao a thousand years ago, have you ever heard of the 'Jiuyang Jade Seal'?"
As soon as these words came out, I saw a red light immediately pop out of the willow card, and it was Hu Xiaoxiao who appeared, only to see her ask a little excitedly: "Where did you hear that?"
Liang Yu was taken aback by her reaction, and then said casually: "I heard by chance... I don't understand, that's why I asked you. ”
Hu Xiaoxiao said a little vaguely: "Oh... I've never heard of it..."
"Oh?..." Liang Yu stared at Hu Xiaoxiao's big eyes for a while, and Hu Xiaoxiao deliberately avoided his gaze, Liang Yu smiled slightly and continued to ask, "How did you know that Qingguang was a flying sword last night?"
"I ?...," Hu Xiaoxiao pretended to be calm, "I have been cultivating for hundreds of years before this great immortal was robbed, so I naturally have a lot of knowledge, and that thing can naturally be seen from the moment I pass by..."
"But you haven't heard of the 'Jiuyang Jade Seal'..."Liang Yu blinked, and stopped talking.
Hu Xiaoxiao glanced at Liang Yu and said, "Even Da Luo Jinxian doesn't dare to say that he knows everything about Zhou Tian, okay? You... Hurry up and wash up, we're going to Tarzan!"
Liang Yu stood up, feeling more energetic than ever, guessing that it should be the effect of the half of the Qin Divine Pill.
He glanced at Hu Xiaoxiao, stretched his waist and said, "I have changed my mind!" I suddenly remembered that an old friend asked me to go to see his old mother, so that Taishan, I'm afraid I can't go with you!"
Hu Xiaoxiao was dissatisfied: "How can you go back on your word?!"
While he was talking, he heard someone knock on the door and say, "Liang Gongzi, the little one gave you a wash, is it convenient to open the door?"
Liang Yu glanced at Hu Xiaoxiao, then deliberately staggered past her, opened the door, and said politely to the shopkeeper outside the door: "There is little brother Lao to bother!"
The shopkeeper brought the wooden basin filled with water into the house, greeted Hu Xiaoxiao, and said to Liang Yu: "Ling Zun is a well-known master in Fushun, although he passed away five years ago, everyone still respects him to this day, and it is also appropriate for the little one to do something small for Liang Gongzi." ”
Liang Yu politely agreed, sent the shopkeeper to the door, and the other party said again: "Today, the imperial examination will be held, and our shopkeeper has prepared breakfast for all candidates, and asked Liang Gongzi to go to dinner early." ”
After sending off the shopkeeper, Liang Yu quickly finished washing up and was about to go out, when Hu Xiaoxiao suddenly said behind him: "Hey, aren't you going to find your friend's mother?
Liang Yu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, it's rare to come once, and it's not bad to experience the real imperial examination room..."
"Oh..."Hu Xiaoxiao shook his little brain and said, "Then I'll accompany you to have a look!"
