Ruijia Village is located on the loess hill, behind the village is the towering mountains, there is no end in sight, there is a more famous Xiuxian market in the mountains - Luoxian Town, adjacent to the market of Ruijia Village, almost every village and village, young and old, know the matter of cultivating the truth, and are proud to be able to cultivate the truth.

As long as the family in the village finds that the child has the qualification to cultivate immortals, almost all families will try their best to send their children to the sect of cultivating immortals or the family of cultivating immortals, even if the families without the qualifications of cultivating immortals will let their children learn some alchemy techniques from an early age, which also leads to the fact that Ruijia Village is very advocating strength.

However, a pair of orphans and widows in the village seem to be incompatible with these, the young Rui Qing and the sick mother Rui Jingru depend on each other in their dilapidated thatched house, after a gust of wind, Rui Qing, who is standing in front of the thatched house, finds that his thatched house has a few more holes, I don't know if there will be time to repair it before the next heavy rain, Rui Qing muttered in her heart.

"Qing'er, have you changed mulberry leaves for silkworms?" Rui Qing's voice came from behind her mother.

"Just changed, Ah Niang" Rui Qing turned around and happily ran to her mother.

"A-Niang, are your clothes finished?" Rui Qing looked at her mother with bloodshot eyes with some concern.

"I just finished it, and I was thinking about making something to eat for you at night" Jingru lovingly touched her daughter's head.

"Great, I like to eat dumplings made by my mother" Rui Qing shook her mother's hand excitedly.

"Let's eat dumplings that night, glutton" Jingru smiled and turned into the kitchen.

Rui Qing's mother, Jingru, is a well-known needlework in the village, and the mother and daughter usually make a living by raising silkworms and reeling silk, and in their free time, Jingru makes some clothes and embroidery for the villagers to subsidize the family. The income is barely enough to maintain the basic food and clothing of the mother and daughter.

After watching her mother turn around, Rui Qing remembered her father who had never met before, according to Grandma Chen next door, her father's name was Rui Dagui, and he was a vigorous hunter in the village, and his mother Rui Jingru was very in love. But when Jingru was more than seven months pregnant, he disappeared, and most people in the village thought that he was eaten by a fierce beast in the mountains, leaving Jingru's mother and son to survive alone with a little savings from the past.

Rui Qing had more than once envied the cheerful back of the big girl next door riding on her father's shoulder, and had also quietly asked her mother Jingru about when her father would come back, and her mother had always believed that her father would return to them if he was still alive, but Rui Qing, who was already seven years old, began to slowly think like other villagers that her father probably couldn't come back.

Rui Qing at the dinner table happily ate dumplings and chatted with Jingru, feeling quite quiet.

"Mother, I heard the big girl next door say that they will go to Luoxian Town with the rest of the village to check the qualifications of cultivating immortals in three days, can I go?" Rui Qing looked at her mother Jingru expectantly.

Jingru also thought about the money and silver she had saved over the years, barely enough for her daughter to go to Luoxian Town, so she replied lightly:

"Yes, but my mother has to take care of the silkworms at home, and I can't accompany you to go, so I'm a little worried about you alone. ”

Rui Qing didn't expect her mother to agree to go by herself, she didn't have any hope, after all, she knew very well that her family's income was tight, Rui Qing said happily:

"Don't worry, Aunt Niang, Uncle Tian will go with Uncle Tian, they will take care of me, and I will be careful myself"

Looking at her daughter's little face that was a little red with excitement, Jingru seemed to see her former self, and she was also looking forward to cultivating immortals like this, expecting to be able to step into the road of cultivation and reach the other side of immortality. Then he told Rui Qing:

"Well, you take care of yourself on the road and come back safely regardless of the test results, you know?"

Rui Qing was immersed in the joy that she could go to Luoxian Town, and she didn't see Jingru's worried eyes, so she just replied to her mother:

"I know, I'll save money, mother, just rest assured. ”

Rui Qing thought that if she had the qualifications to cultivate immortals, she could improve the environment at home, and her mother would not have to work so hard, and she could live a better life.
