"Click", several penny boys lay on the river's edge, the strongest and strongest one smashed a crack in the ice on the river with the stones they had picked up, and the others hurriedly climbed up, holding the branches, and pried the crack with all their hands and feet.

Finally pried off a small piece of ice, and then poked the ice hole with a branch, it was as thick as the wall of the prison in the county, and even the most powerful Zheng blacksmith came, and it was estimated that with an axe, there was still no on the ice.

Strange things happen every year, this small county town in the south of the Yangtze River, so far there are not many strange things this year, just one, but this one is about to die of these people.

Originally, the water town in the south of the Yangtze River is known for its warmth and nourishment, even in winter every year, it will not be as cold as the northern city, the supply of fresh vegetables and fruits will not be interrupted, and the vast majority of the waterways will not be frozen and unimpeded.

If the winter of any year is particularly cold and snows heavily, the local people will be a little excited, after all, the snow is a good year, especially the children, the snowman is higher than the family, and some of them do not admit defeat, but also climb to the tree pile in their yard, and their feet slip and fall into the thick snow, people are fine, one by one by their own mother to carry their ears back to drink ginger soup, no longer dare to be the monkey king in the snow.

At the beginning of this year, there was also a light snowfall, and when the winter passed, everyone who went to the field sowed the seeds into the field, and when the spring rain was watered, seedlings grew, and they waited to grow up.

As a result, at the end of April, the demon wind blew from nowhere, and this piece suddenly became extremely cold, even the cold winter did not have this posture, the only river nearby froze, the livelihood of several villages was gone, there was no water to water the fields, there was no river to transport goods, and the old cattle were so cold that they refused to start work.

It took several big men a busy day to make a hole in the thinner ice to provide water for the village. This hole is simply small and pitiful, and the water is also small, and the big yellow dog raised by Huzi pees more happily than it.

So every day the children who were supported to receive the water carried a wooden bucket, lined up in a long line, the person who received the water squatted there and blinked and watched the water flow intermittently, like a person who is going to die to give water, uncomfortable to death, a group of children in the back are bored to play games, come early in the morning, go back to have lunch.

Today is the seventh day, everyone can't work, can only gather by the river to see when the ice can melt, but watching those children smash the ice, everyone is panicked, just this thickness, the whole village stands on the ice and opens a bonfire banquet and dances.

"Huzi, don't play with ice all the time, it's easy to get cold this day" A woman with a somewhat bloated figure sat on a stone bench and mended cotton clothes, and sighed while calling the strongest boy back.

"I've lived for most of my life, but this is the first time I've seen it, the pomegranate flowers are about to bloom in May, and I have to turn out the cotton clothes for the winter, which is enough for evil. ”

"But it's not," the other woman sitting next to her was thin and neatly knitted in her clothes, "Hey, I've heard people say that such a natural disaster must have done something immoral and immoral, and God will punish it." ”

"That can't just punish our county, besides, how much lack of morality can we do in this small place, and it is a big deal for the prefect to lose a few cows. ”

"That's not true, you are married from the county next door, I don't know, we were the territory of the immortal family hundreds of years ago" The thin woman was very enthusiastic about this topic, and the movements in her hands were a little slower, "Those spells of the immortals are like this." ”

The bloated woman only thinks that she is bragging and showing off, who knows what is going on with the things of hundreds of years ago, when it comes to cultivating immortals, everyone is interested, but she has not seen anyone really go to cultivate, ordinary people just farm and work honestly, and the most important thing is to be fed and clothed.

The two chatted for a while, seeing that the sky was gloomy, and they were afraid that it was going to rain, so they quickly took their children and brought back the neighbors' houses by the way.

After a while, a light rain began to fall, and the rain gradually became heavier, and the sound of hitting the roof was quite scary.

Everyone is glad that there is no snow, otherwise it would have been a real disaster if the houses and fields were buried. Each family has set up buckets in the yard, and they really need such a rain because of the shortage of water recently.

After dinner, everyone didn't have the heart to visit the house, and everyone blew out the lights early to rest.

"This guy's weather, let's go. ”

......

Late at night.

It was dark in the county town not far from the village, and only watchmen walked with umbrellas on the road.

But one family's house was brightly lit, and the people were walking in a hurry, and some hurried footsteps were drowned out by the sound of rain.

"Madame is going to give birth, go and tell the master. ”

Although there were many people guarding outside, in the house, only the midwife and a big maid who had been with her for more than ten years were waiting for Mrs. Wang.

Because it was the first child, Mrs. Wang was extremely nervous, not worried about whether the child was male or female, but because she had been a little weak since she was a child, and she was pregnant with her husband for five years, and she would cherish it regardless of gender.

The midwife's comforting voice sounded in her ears, and Mrs. Wang completely lost her strength after exerting her strength again, and her eyes turned black. But the baby's crying gave her a little strength, and she struggled to get up with the support of the maid.

"Congratulations to Madame for her wonderful daughter. The midwife got the silver reward, and even the compliments and polite words carried a bit of sincerity.

The rain outside the house was heavier again, and the old man came back, looking at his wife's soaked hair with distress, and at his newborn daughter with joy.

"Wait for Madame to rest. The old man also knew that he was not suitable to stay in the delivery room for too long, so he stood on the verandah outside the house and watched the nurses carry his daughter down, and the lights in the lady's room were turned off in the middle of the night, and then he left.

But instead of going back to his other bedroom, he went to the study, where he was determined to come up with a good name for his first child.

Although Jiangnan is a rich place, all men with some family wealth have a few beautiful concubines in their families, but everyone knows that the county lord's family style is clean and honest, and he does not raise his aunt and concubine, and there is only one wife, who has been married for several years, although he has not given birth to a son, he is still in love.

The old man flipped through the books in the room, looked for it according to the eight characters of his daughter's birthday, and found that it was an excellent fate, but there was a lack of five elements and a lack of water in his life.

This problem is not very big, as long as you bring water when you name your daughter, the folk method is unpleasant.

When the sky turned white and the rain gradually stopped, the lord had already written several pieces of paper for the preparation of the name, but he was still unsatisfied, waved his hand to find the maid, sent him to the master bedroom, and waited for the lady to wake up and give her a look.

Mrs. Wang didn't sleep well this night, although her body was still very weak, but she woke up at the end of the day, and it was difficult to fall asleep after tossing and turning.

Then the names full of the old man's love turned into crumpled paper balls.

"Master, Madame asked me to pass the word, please be serious, otherwise Miss will definitely complain about you when she grows up. ”

The old man is miserable, where is he not careful?

I had to do it all over again, but this time I sat at the desk, and I couldn't hold back a word for a long time.

"Master!" a little guy came in from outside, red ears with excitement, "The heavy rain last night turned the glacier on the outskirts of the city!"

"Is this true?!" That glacier is a stone that has recently pressed on the old man's heart, and even the imminent birth of the child has not been able to eliminate his sorrow, only last night's love of his daughter made him forget for a while, and now he heard that a rain solved the problem, and it did make him ecstatic.

Not only that, but the 100 acres of pomegranate trees planted by the river in Jiangjia Village in the upper reaches of the river bloomed overnight, and the river was full of petals, and the fragrance was wafting for hundreds of miles!"

"Okay! Hurry up and send some men to help with the farming, don't miss the good time. ”

The little guy left, and the old man only felt extremely relaxed in his heart, and he was not so aggrieved in the face of the blank paper in front of him.

In an instant, the old man raised his pen and wrote down two words.

"Chinchilla"

"The pomegranate is a pomegranate, my daughter, when she grows up, she will be more beautiful than the best pomegranate flower, and the ice has three waters, which just makes up for the lack of the five elements. ”

The old man looked at it for a long time, and felt very satisfied, so he asked people to send it to his wife.

After receiving the lady's due, the old man took out a small locked box from the secret compartment of the study, unlocked it, and respectfully invited the family tree inside.

I don't know what material the box is made of, which can prevent dust accumulation, moisture and insect damage, and protect the inheritance of this family.

The old man carefully flipped to his own generation, afraid of folding the paper, and did not dare to use force, studied the best ink, carefully wrote his daughter's name in the best font, and placed it on the table waiting for the ink to dry.

"Master, there's a fortune teller outside to see you," the little guy ran in again.

"Huh?" the old man turned around, the lady only gave birth in the middle of the night, the news will not spread so early in the morning that a fortune teller came to the door to earn this money, is there a real ability?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a man in a robe stepped into the door, as if he knew that he would be invited to enter, and looked at the incorruptible county lord with a smile.

The county lord looked at the man in this robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, his face was like jade, and the temperament revealed in his demeanor was something that ordinary people could not have, and he looked like he had a bit of fairy wind and bones.

"I wonder what happened to the gentleman's visit?"

"Congratulations to the master for his happy daughter" The man made a gesture in a proper manner, but the following words were without a beginning or an end, "Does the master know that the suburbs of the city are melting ice today?"

"Nature knows. "Not only do I know, that's how my daughter's name came from.

"It is rumored that only unusual things enter the WTO, will cause a vision of heaven and earth, poor Dao pinched his fingers, May Ice Age to this day, exactly seven days have passed, and today your daughter was born, Poor Dao thinks ......"

"Shut up!" the old man was half angry, how could he not understand these words, that is, to say that his daughter was ominous!

"Don't be angry first," the man still smiled, "Poor Dao is not talking nonsense, and this is not an ominous omen, but an auspicious person." ”

"Thousands of years ago, this was a place where the power of the immortal world fell, he was gifted, and he entered the god stage before he was seventeen, if he had not fallen, he would definitely be the head of the hundred schools of the immortal sect. ”

"For so many years, there has never been the reincarnation of that great power, and my lord, the birth date of your daughter, but it is the same as that great power. ”

Hearing what the man said, the old man's face softened slightly, "Mistaken recognition is misidentification, as long as my daughter can be safe and sound." ”

"Just because it's a daughter, it won't be safe and sound" The man shook his head incomprehensibly, "An immortal who has entered the god transformation stage, even if he is reincarnated, his appearance will be the same as in his previous life, that great power is a man's body, and your family is a real daughter, this ......"

"With such a great power, the heavenly realm has long vacated the immortal position for him, and when he ascends, he will be able to rank in the immortal class, and his birth date is taboo. ”

"Your daughter occupies his birthdate, which is to rob him of the opportunity to be reincarnated, isn't this just that you can't get along with the way of heaven?"

The man's words are really a little reasonable, the old man's brows are furrowed, what can I do?

"Coming here today next day is to offer a plan to protect the daughter, but you may be wronged. ”

"Sir, please. ”

"Pretending to be a man since he was a child, he deceived the way of heaven. The man said lightly, and slammed it on the old man's heart.

"This ...... Can it work?" The old man felt as if he was bleeding when he thought that his cute and delicate daughter was going to be raised as a male baby.

"Don't worry, this is the perfect way. ”

"That'...... Wouldn't she have to live as a man for the rest of her life?"

The man seemed to remember something, and the confident look between his eyebrows and eyes just now dimmed a little, "No need, do you know why that great power entered the Transformation God Stage before he was seventeen?"

"For on the day before his seventeenth birthday, he fell. ”

"Your daughter only needs to survive these seventeen years, and once her seventeenth birthday is over, she can't control it even if she is heavenly. ”

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and just wanted to order someone to get money to reward the man, when he suddenly felt a gust of wind, and there was no man in a robe behind him.

The old man looked at the uninked name of the family tree on the desk, and felt a headache.

楉冰, 楉冰.

This is like a boy's name.
