Chapter 1 Lushan City

Next Chapter

The five-year immortal seedling selection ceremony will be held next month as scheduled. Mo Zhuoyu is just eleven years old this year, and he has reached the age to run for election.

Early in the morning, Mo Zhuoyu was pulled up by her mother and straightened up.

With Mo's father and other children in the village who were running for election, they rode in the carriage rented by the village's joint venture and embarked on the road to Lushan City.

In order to save money, adults sit in wooden carts without sheds. The children were housed in a slightly better furnished carriage.

Mo Zhuoyu was separated from her father after getting into the car, and she sat silently in the corner. I didn't discuss the stories of cultivating immortals with the children who were laughing and playing around me.

Died in an accident and traveled through another world for more than ten years, although I had heard that this was the world of cultivation. But Mo Zhuoyu did not have high expectations for whether he could cultivate immortals.

Because among the masses, there are indeed only a few people who have spiritual roots.

And because when she first crossed over, she accidentally encountered an incident that made her have a complicated emotion about the legendary life of cultivating immortals.

It was Mo Zhuoyu, the third year after he was born in this life. Perhaps because it is an otherworldly soul, when Mo Zhuoyu was just born, his soul and body could not be well coordinated. The performance between the movements is a little clumsy.

However, Mo's father and mother still love the only child who was finally obtained.

One day, Mo Mu took Mo Zhuoyu up the mountain to collect firewood. Because he was afraid of hurting Mo Zhuoyu, he placed him in a safe place.

Mo Zhuoyu was originally obedient, staying where she was and waiting for Mo Mu. Unexpectedly, I suddenly heard a soft sound in the grass.

When he heard the sound, he searched for it, but found that it was a seriously injured man, kneeling in the grass.

When the man saw it, Mo Zhuoyu staggered to the ground and walked over, and reluctantly smiled, "Child, come forward." ”

Mo Zhuoyu was afraid to run away when he saw this, but he did smile kindly. Seeing that his breathing was slow and seemed to be dying, he finally stepped forward.

The man was seriously injured and near death, but at this moment, it was as if his body suddenly came to life. Sit up and pull Mo Zhuoyu and put the object in her hand.

"This is one of my spiritual treasures, you can take it. If you are destined to enter the fairy gate in the future, when the time is right, you will be able to understand its wonderful use. and I will give it to you today, so that it will not fall into the hands of thieves hereafter. ”

Before the words fell, his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately waved his sleeves and sent Mo Zhuoyu behind the trees in the distance.

Mo Zhuoyu was caught off guard by this series of things. Just as he was about to speak, he saw another person flying in the distance.

When the visitor saw the man on the ground, he sneered, "Don't hand over the things quickly, for the sake of the past feelings, I may also ask the master to let you cut yourself off." ”

The man on the ground was unmoved, and mocked, "You don't have to be complacent, my today is just your tomorrow!"

The man was instantly enraged, and the long sword in his hand was raised, and it immediately pierced through the vital point of the person on the ground.

Seeing that it had fallen, the man snorted coldly, "I don't know what to do! ”

Put away the corpse on the ground, run the body, and float away in an instant.

From beginning to end, he didn't seem to be aware of Mo Zhuoyu's existence at all.

Mo Zhuoyu was so frightened by what was in front of her that she didn't dare to move for a long time. In the end, it was Mo's mother who came to find her and returned home.

didn't dare to publicize this matter, because he was afraid that the person would come back again, Mo Zhuoyu didn't dare to go out for a long time.

The so-called spiritual treasure obtained by accident was also hidden far away in a place outside, and he didn't dare to take it out.

Therefore, although she was very curious about cultivating immortals, she didn't force it.

If you can choose, you will naturally cherish the opportunity to cultivate well and experience the life of cultivating immortals. If you can't choose, it may not be a good thing to live an ordinary mortal life.

Mo's father and mother have great expectations for her to be elected, I heard that her ancestors, I don't know how many generations ago there were immortals. Of course, Mo Zhuoyu just listens to this.

There are one hundred and eighty households in the entire Luhua Village, and there are one hundred and seventy households, and the ancestors have heard that there have been immortals.

The important thing is that if the children in the family are selected to enter the Xianmen, they can get a large subsidy. Moreover, the taxes of the current year can not only be completely exempted, but also the labor of the current year can be exempted.

This is naturally a pie-in-the-sky good thing for the poor who live a tight life, and everyone yearns for it.

For those who have a family, they don't care about this. But for a little money, it is possible to make an immortal in the family. Being able to be familiar in front of the immortals by the way is naturally a good thing that cannot be missed.

Therefore, the seedling selection ceremony held every five years is basically attended by the whole people. Of course, only children between the ages of ten and fifteen are selected. Those who are under or over the age of age will not be accepted.

After nearly a month's journey, Mo Zhuoyu and his entourage finally arrived in Lushan City before the seedling selection ceremony.

After settling down in the cheap hotel found by the village chief, Mo Zhuoyu slept well in bed. The carriage was in a hurry along the way, and she was a little seasick, and she basically didn't sleep a single night.

The next day, after Mo Zhuoyu got up, she changed into the new clothes and shoes prepared by Mo's mother, and found the place where Mo's father lived.

The seedling selection hall was held three days later, and during these two days, the village chief complied with everyone's wishes and let everyone move freely.

When Mo Zhuoyu was at home, he discussed with Mo's father. If you have time to wander around the city first and shop for something simple, it's not worth a long trip.

Father Mo even discussed with his cousin who was good friends in the clan, and partnered to buy some things to go back and subsidize some household expenses.

When Mo Zhuoyu arrived, Mo's father, his cousin and his son had already packed up and were waiting for her.

After bidding farewell to the village chief, the group headed for the busiest street in the city.

Mo Zhuoyu looked all the way around, and he gained a lot of knowledge.

Although the Mo family is the only child of her, they are also very fond of her. But due to the conditions, she grew up in a small mountain village, and the most prosperous place she has ever been to is their town.

Although the people on the street are not shoulder to shoulder, there are quite a few people. Among them, it can be seen that many people like them have come from afar to participate in the seedling selection ceremony.

The streets are paved with bluestone slabs, and although there are many pedestrians and horses on the streets, there is not the slightest trace of dirt.

The neat shops on both sides of the street, pedestrians come and go, but there is no sense of messiness. Compared to the town that Mo Zhuoyu had ever seen, it was like the difference between an immortal and a mortal.

Although the four of them were amazed by the prosperity of Lushan City, they were also aware of their net worth and did not dare to enter the store next to them easily.

Lushan City is at the foot of the Lushan Pai Mountain, so the city is mixed with immortals. However, there were no immortal cultivators in their group, so they could only go to the shops opened by mortals.

Mo Zhuoyu followed the two elders all the way around, entering and exiting many shops. But except for the two adults who bought some cheap and novel things, there were not many other things bought.

The group came to a small store called Wu Kee Grocery Store.

The shop is really small, Mo Zhuoyu raised his head and looked at the door plaque hanging on the door, wondering if it would fall because the door was too small.

Father Mo touched the remaining silver money in his arms, thinking that today's things were almost bought. Then he said, "Xiaoyu, you can see if you have anything you like later, and you will buy it for you with your favorite father."

Since his father spoke, although Mo Zhuoyu was distressed about the money, he still happily said, "Okay, thank you, Daddy"!

There was no greeting guy in the store, only a shopkeeper-like person sitting behind the counter.

When he saw a group of people coming in, he only raised his eyes and said, "Just look!"

The attitude is not negligent, but there is no enthusiasm at all.

The four of them didn't care about his attitude, because they had a purpose, Mo Zhuoyu entered the store and put in dim sum than the front, and looked carefully all the way from the door.

The shop is worthy of being a grocery store, down to the daily necessities such as dustpans, pots and bowls that Mo Zhuoyu has seen. As for the ones she didn't know the use of at all, there were jade jewelry and other things that were expensive to the dead at first glance.

It can be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

Mo Zhuoyu looked all the way over, basically he was not interested in what he could afford to buy, and he couldn't afford to buy if he was interested.

When he turned to the jewelry and jade, Mo Zhuoyu only glanced absent-mindedly, knowing that this kind of thing was not something he could dream of.

It was Mo's father who saw his daughter wandering around the jewelry.

Thinking about his daughter, now he has reached the age of beauty. And participating in the seedling selection ceremony later is also one of the most important days in my life. Taking advantage of today, it is also appropriate to add an ornament to her.

Then he walked up to his daughter, "Xiaoyu, do you have any fancies?"

Mo Zhuoyu was about to refuse when she heard this, but suddenly her mind changed and she looked up at Father Mo's expression.

Instead, he said, "Those earrings are pretty good." Raising her finger, she was more excited just now, a pair of silver earrings in droplets.

Father Mo looked at it, the price of the target was not high, a pair of earrings were three taels of silver. Of course, this price is not high compared to other jewelry.

For Father Mo, it's still a little heartache.

However, he gritted his teeth and said to the shopkeeper, "Youlao wrapped this up." ”

The shopkeeper had just been squinting and sitting behind the counter, and he didn't care about Mo Zhuoyu and his party, just shopping and not buying.

Now when he heard this, he just got up slowly and stepped forward. After asking which one it was, he took out a wooden box and put the pair of earrings inside.

Mo Zhuoyu looked at it, thought for a while, and said, "Uncle, can you give me one of this stone?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a large wooden box next to the counter, marked with a small stone of ten cents each.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Mo Zhuoyu.

I saw a small person, who will put his head out of the counter. The chubby face looks white and tender, which is very pleasing.

knew that this must have been brought by parents to participate in the seedling selection ceremony. He looked at the stone, which was not worth much, and said, "Pick a piece and take it!"

Mo Zhuoyu stepped on his feet happily when he heard this, and took a round stone the size of an azure thumb in the box.

Although this stone is cheap, it is very smooth to polish. There was no scratch on his body, and it was as round as a pearl, Mo Zhuoyu decided to go back and tie it up, and hang it on his body.

Walking out of Wu Ji groceries, the group visited a few more stores. However, except for the cousin's brother, who bought a wooden sword, no one else bought anything.

On the side of the road, after one person ate a bowl of ravioli, the four returned to the inn where they stayed.

For the next two days, Mo Zhuoyu did not go out again. Except that night, he made a tie and put the stone on the back of his neck.

Since the second day, I have been following the village chief to learn some precautions for the seedling selection ceremony.

On the day, you can be accompanied by an elder. However, due to the limited time and the large number of people, after arriving at the office hall of the Lushan faction, adults were not allowed to enter.

Those who run for election can only line up to enter. Once inside, follow the instructions and signs and make your way to the testing site on your own.

In fact, the Lushan faction is not complicated to choose seedlings, just to detect the spiritual root. If you have a spiritual root, you can be selected, and if you don't have a spiritual root, you will automatically lose the selection.

Unlike other major sects, there are also spiritual root purity, mental nature tests or something. Whether or not you can be selected depends on fate, and there is no effort or piety.

Therefore, after the village chief finished explaining the general process, he brought the book and sent it down. Tell a group of children to go and read a book on their own, and if they can't choose, they might as well read more books.

In order to enter the Xianmen practice in the future, the village specially invited an old Confucian student to teach in the school run by the village. Almost all the children in the village have to attend classes. However, due to family constraints, some can only attend classes for half a day every day, and have to go home to help with work in the second half of the day.

Because Mo Zhuoyu is loved by Mo's father and mother, her classes are full every day. In addition, after all, he used to be an adult, and among the children in the village, learning is considered to be fast.

In the future, if you can't choose, go home to the town and find a job like an account office, and become an apprentice.

Because there are many immortal cultivators in Lingyun Continent, whether there is a spiritual root or not has nothing to do with gender. Therefore, although the main body of the folk is still male and female, there is no restriction on women. It is also common to be a well-educated official, and there is no difference between men and women in the cultivation realm.

The time of three days passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of the seedling selection ceremony.

Mo Zhuoyu got up early in the morning to freshen up, put the newly bought earrings and stones on his body, and then went out with everyone to the Lushan faction's seedling selection hall.
