Chapter 2 Preparing to Leave Home
"It's just ......," He Lingfeng had to say something.
"Okay, okay, okay, without further ado, you will return to the mountain gate with me now, and then I will show the senior brother in charge, and officially accept you as a master and apprentice. ”
As soon as he heard him say that he was willing, Wang Fugui rubbed his hands happily, and he didn't notice that He Lingfeng didn't seem to finish speaking, so he directly interrupted his words.
He Lingfeng was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Master, can you delay it for two days, and wait for the apprentice to settle down with family affairs?"
"Family affairs? Oh, I almost forgot if you didn't say it, and you tell me what other relatives you have in your family?" asked Wang Fugui.
"My father is gone, and now my mother and I are living together. ”
Wang Fugui frowned and pondered when he heard this, and said after a while, "That's it, let's go to your house first." ”
After that, Wang Fugui held He Lingfeng in his left hand, pinched a trick in his right hand, and chanted "Get up!" A breath of fresh air was born out of thin air under his feet, supporting him and He Lingfeng to slowly rise into the air.
He Lingfeng was surprised, but Wang Fugui said, "Haha! Don't be stunned, stupid boy, hurry up and show the way, this is called Qingfeng Escape, this little end spell is nothing, when you go to the sect in the future, there will be a time when you open your eyes." ”
He Lingfeng pointed to a small village at the foot of a large mountain to the west.
"Over there. ”
He was still excited in his heart, and he was unconsciously looking forward to the future life of cultivating immortals.
Wang Fugui saw his excited expression in his eyes, but sighed secretly in his heart. I don't know if it was right or wrong to bring an innocent boy who had no quarrel with the world into the cruel world of cultivating immortals.
Immediately, he didn't think much about it, adjusted his body, and flew towards the small village with He Lingfeng, and landed in the courtyard of He Lingfeng's house in the blink of an eye.
After landing, He Lingfeng shouted, "Mother, the child is back." Then he pushed the door and entered the inner room, Wang Fugui casually looked at the yard and then followed into the house.
The light in the room is slightly dim and unlit, and the furnishings are extremely simple, with a four-corner wooden table with four wooden stools in the center, a simple dresser on the left, a yellowed copper mirror on it, and no rouge incense boxes and other objects, and a basin shelf against the wall next to it.
Under the window on the right-hand side is a clay kang, and a middle-aged woman is half-reclining, her face looking a little sickly pale.
"Son, why did you come back so early today?
The woman looked at He Lingfeng with a kind face and asked with a smile. Then he turned to Wang Fugui and said apologetically, "I don't know if the guest is coming, the concubine is so lazy, I hope the guest will forgive me." ”
"Madame, don't be polite, I'm also suddenly disturbing, please forgive me for the abruptness. Wang Fugui hurriedly replied.
After some politeness, He Lingfeng poured tea for Wang Fugui, and told his mother about meeting Wang Fugui and then worshipping in the fairy gate, and also said about worrying about his mother's stay, and his mother was only surprised at first and frowned and then listened quietly.
"It turned out that the immortal chief was coming, and the hospitality was not good. ”
Mother He then sighed again and said, "Ling Feng's father went early, and I have been sick all the year round over the years, and the family is supported by Ling Feng alone. But I thought that if I went one day, Feng'er would be alone in this world, although Feng'er was sensible since she was a child and could take care of herself, but I couldn't rest assured as a mother. Now God really has eyes, and he has found a good place for my family. ”
He Lingfeng listened to it on the side, his nose was sour, and he just wanted to cry, his mother was sick like this, and he was indeed the most relieved.
"Madame don't have to worry, according to the rules of our Wanhua Immortal Sect, all inner disciples and only children in the family can enter the sect with their parents and the elderly, and the inner disciples enter the mountain gate to practice, and their families are arranged in the mortal villages and towns at the foot of the mountain, engaged in production activities such as fishing, hunting, farming and weaving, so as to provide daily needs for the disciples with low roots in the sect. ”
"I see Ling Feng, this kid has excellent roots, and he will definitely be able to join the inner door. Mrs. is not in good health, so she doesn't have to work, and after returning to the sect, she can ask Dr. Mo to use pills to recuperate and recuperate. ”
"It's so good, thank you to the fairy for fulfilling our mother and son. ”
"Madam is polite, without further ado, you clean up, and we will go back to the sect later." ”
"Great, mother, you lie down, I'll go pack my things. After that, he turned to Wang Fugui and bent down deeply, "Thank you, Master, this kindness cannot be repaid, and the disciple will be treated as a cow and a horse to honor the master." ”
"Alas~ Where is it, since you have entered my door, I should take care of it, and this is also the rule of the sect, I haven't done anything, and I will give you another meeting gift when I return to the sect. You go and pack up quickly, and we will go back to the sect today." ”
He Lingfeng replied respectfully, "Yes, Master." ”
Then he turned around and began to pack his things. Since he was from a poor family and had nothing valuable, He Lingfeng packed up a few clothes for him and his mother, and carried them behind him.
The rest are rice and grain, just when he decided whether to give it to his neighbors, Wang Fugui said that he would come, and then saw him stretch out his right thumb and index finger, touch it back and forth three times on the white jade ring worn on his left index finger, and read a sentence "Qiankun Wuji, Sumeru mustard seeds, harvest!"
As soon as the words fell, a white light shot out from the ring, and after circling around a few bags of grain, the latter rolled up and brushed backwards and disappeared in front of the ring.
He Lingfeng was stunned from the side, his jaw almost dropped, Wang Fugui saw this, smiled proudly, and said, "Boy, this is called a storage ring." I think it's still early, so I'll teach you a lesson. ”
"The so-called storage ring is one of the many storage artifacts in the immortal cultivation world, and there are also various portable decorations such as storage bags, storage bracelets and even hairpin earrings. The storage artifact can generally only hold dead things, and it is made by inscribed the technique of 'mustard seed Na Sumeru' on the storage boundary stone with the way of the formation, and the immortal cultivation world is generally only held by monks above the Yuan Infant. ”
"And my storage ring is only the lowest yellow level in the fourth level of 'Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang', but it is not the second, I am a third-grade, and the size of the storage space alone is close to the Xuan level. ”
"Of course, it will be more convenient to use the more advanced ones, like just now I had to use mana to urge and then recite a spell to ingest. ”
"And the higher-level Xuan-level storage ring, you only need to urge the mana to pinch the trick with one finger to put away the items. The ground-level storage ring on it is engraved with two magic circles, in addition to the 'mustard seed Na Sumeru' array, but also placed the best spirit stone in the spirit gathering array, providing the mana of operation, when collecting and placing items, you can directly communicate with your divine thoughts, move as you like, very convenient. ”
He Lingfeng was fascinated by what he heard, and was curious about how magical the Heavenly Grade Storage Ring was, but he didn't expect to wait for a long time and didn't see Wang Fugui say the following. I couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Master, what about that level, why didn't you talk about it?"
"This, is it heaven-level, it is the ability of a master at the level of earth immortals, for a teacher, for the teacher's cultivation is not enough for that level, I have never seen it, let alone heard of any specific magic......" Wang Fugui's old face flushed, and he said with some shame.
He Lingfeng was still immersed in the yearning for the storage ring, and did not notice Wang Fugui's sourness, and said, "Master, don't worry, in the future, I He Lingfeng will be successful in cultivation, and sooner or later there will be a heaven-level storage ring by my side, and I will also get one for the master at that time." ”
Wang Fugui smiled with relief and said, "You have also packed up, it's almost time to go, let's go back to the sect." ”
He Lingfeng was about to agree, as if he remembered something important, he frowned and said, "Master, I don't know how long it will take for us to come back, so I want to take my mother with me to see my father first, and his tomb is in the field not far behind the house." ”
"It's okay, the teacher is waiting here, you two go. ”
He Lingfeng thanked his master, then took incense, candles, paper money and other things, and pushed his mother to his father's grave with a wheelbarrow to pay respects.
When his father died, He Ling was still young. Unable to carry the work of cultivating the fields on his young shoulders, he has been living by fishing, and the field behind the house has been abandoned.
But he often came to pay respects to his father every three or five days, and by the way, he weeded around the cemetery. Therefore, when he and his mother came here, the area around his father's grave was still clean and tidy.
He knelt in front of his father's grave, lighting incense, candles, paper money, and other things, while talking about the fact that he and his mother were going to Wanhua Immortal Sect. The simple wooden tombstone in front of him is engraved with the words "He Dalin's Tomb".
"Dad, the child is not filial, I can't come to see you for a long time in the future, I want to follow an immortal to cultivate, my mother and I will go to the sect with him, I hope you don't blame, and the child will come back to see you when he cultivates again in the future." ”
"Dad, don't worry, I will take care of my mother, the immortal chief said that if you go to the sect, you can cure your mother's illness. Dad, the child is gone, if you have a spirit in heaven, bless me and my mother with peace and smooth......"
After He Lingfeng finished speaking, he bent down and bowed his head three times, and then got up.
"Da Lin, I will take care of Feng'er, when Feng'er really grows up, I don't have to worry about it anymore, I will accompany you. ”
"Mother......" He Lingfeng heard his mother say this, and there was indescribable sadness in his heart.
After the worship, He Lingfeng pushed his mother back again.
At this time, it was noon, and the chimneys of every household in the village were rising with cooking smoke, He Lingfeng looked at the cooking smoke curling up, watching them continue to climb, become lighter and fainter, and finally disappear with the wind.
He suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, and he felt that he was also flying like those smokes, far away from the earth, away from all the fireworks in the world. He felt that his fate in the future would be as uncertain as the smoke......
Leaving the mortal world and stepping into the cultivation realm, what kind of scene awaits him?
He walked while thinking, and before he knew it, he was soon at the door of the house.
