The First Rain of Spring Chapter 1 Thousand Hills City
Thousand Hills City
Although it is not as blessed as the three major caves in the world, it is located at the junction of overseas fairy mountains and the Central Plains, surrounded by mountains of different heights and beautiful scenery on all sides. Legend has it that there were immortals who ascended here, and left a protective barrier. Therefore, people who practice will come here to see it when they pass by.
Not far from the city gate, you can see an antique mansion with a high plaque engraved with a cloud character on the gate.
The Yun family has lived in Qianshan City for generations, and their ancestors also had cultivators, and later settled in Qianshan City, and their descendants have taken business as their business. Although no one cultivates immortals, they have obeyed the orders of their ancestors for generations, and accepted and helped cultivators who passed through Qianshan City.
"Daoyou is polite, what Yun can do is not enough to worry about. In the main hall, an adult man who looked like a merchant was sitting upright on the main seat, looking at the old Taoist priest on the side. This person is the head of the Yun family's generation, Yun Xiao.
"It was really helpless to stay in the Yun family for two days. Poor Dao heard that there were monsters and came here, but he had already escaped from it, so there was no need to stay longer. However, prepare to worship at the fairy temple on the top of the mountain for one night, and leave directly tomorrow morning. The old Taoist priest smiled and waved his hand, sensing that something was wrong, and his eyes swept into the hall fiercely, and finally landed at the door.
Sure enough, at this moment, a young man's head quietly poked out of the door, showed his eyes and looked inward, and immediately retracted after a slight contact with the old Taoist priest's gaze.
The old Taoist priest looked sideways at Yun Xiao and pointed out the door and asked, "This is?"
Yun Xiao showed a hint of embarrassment on his face and beckoned: "Yan'er come in." ”
The boy knew that he had been discovered, so he had no choice but to walk in and stand beside his father.
The old Taoist priest had been watching him since the boy entered the door, and saw that he was surprisingly thin. Compared with ordinary children, there is a little more cold aura on the body, and a little less vitality.
Yun Xiao put his big hand behind the young man and gently pushed him forward: "This is the dog, Yun Lanyan." ”
The old Taoist priest stood up and walked to Yun Lanyan's side, looked at it carefully, patted his shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "The muscles and bones are good, it is a good material." It's just that this physique seems to be..."
Yun Xiao shook his head and sighed lightly: "This child's physique has always worried me the most. If it weren't for the help of monks, I am afraid that they would not have lived to be two years old. ”
The Yun family has been a single lineage since Yun Xiao's generation. Yun Lanyan has been weak and sickly since she was born, and because of this special physique, she is easy to attract ghosts and aliens. This makes the parents at home try their best to take care of them on weekdays, for fear of any mistakes. Fortunately, the ancestors settled here, and there is an enchantment left by the immortals of Thousand Mountains City to protect it. Thanks to the legacy of the ancestors of the Yun family, many cultivators have been helped by many cultivators, and through the guidance of masters, they have been able to be safe and free from nuisances for many years. However, he is still walking on thin ice and does not dare to deviate in the slightest.
Since Yun Xiao took over the position of head of the family, he has paved the way for the bridge of Qianshan City, and also built temples outside the city to worship the immortals who have attained Taoism in Qianshan City, hoping to use the blessings of the immortals to protect the incense of the Yun family.
The old Taoist priest shook the sleeves of his worn Taoist robe helplessly, walked back to his seat with his hands in his hands and sighed: "It's a pity." ”
Yun Lanyan couldn't speak in front of the elders, but she knew in her heart that more than one monk senior had sighed like this, and there was also a heroic and awe-inspiring old-timer who mentioned in front of his father that he wanted to accept him as an apprentice, but his father politely refused.
Yun Xiao patted Yun Lanyan and said softly: "You go down, don't run around." ”
Yun Lanyan bowed to his father and the old Taoist priest in a decent manner, and then retired.
When he arrived at the inner courtyard, Yun Lanyan struggled to climb up to one of the not too high roofs in front of the room, lying on it and looking up at the sky, thinking about the immortal cultivators who had been guests at home over the years, which one was not the sword holder, and in the air, ordinary people could only look up.
"Little Ancestor, come down quickly, it's dangerous up there. I heard Grandma Sun calling at him anxiously.
This is the old servant chosen by his father and mother to take care of the young man, more like Yun Lanyan's relatives. has been very good to him since he was a child, and sometimes if he gets into trouble, Grandma Sun always speaks for him. Don't look at Grandma Sun who is over half a hundred years old, but she is still full of energy, and she is also kind and gentle.
Yun Lanyan stood on the roof and refused to go down, fantasizing that she would also fly in the sky and float among the clouds. He said, "One day, I will be as powerful as the old-timers, at least, at least I can go wherever I want." ”
Su Rili's father and mother did not allow him to go out alone, and rarely let him go out of the city so as not to provoke unclean things, most of the time he could only stay at home and look out the window.
Often the more you try to protect it, the more it will make the teenager feel lonely, and the more he will try to attract attention. If you see him pondering and silent, it means that the little young master is planning something again, and the servants will start to be on guard. In private, there were many discussions that if it weren't for the body of the little young master, he would have to poke a hole in the sky. It's just that there are a few people who can really understand what he thinks at a young age.
"Okay, well, but you come down first, you're only nine years old now, and it's not too late to go to school when you grow up. Grandma Sun always coaxed him in this way, so that he would not be in danger.
Yun Lanyan still didn't hear it, fantasizing to herself.
"Come down for me!" came a roar from under the eaves, which frightened Yun Lanyan. Then I heard Yun Xiao continue, "If you are messing around like this, you will go and kneel a stick of incense later." ”
Yun Lanyan said a little stunned: "But, but, I, I, didn't say anything. Honestly got off the roof and walked to Yun Xiao's side with his head down.
Yun Xiao stroked the young man's head with his big hand, and comforted him in a greeting voice: "Cultivating immortals is not a good thing, and the hardships are not something that ordinary people can endure. You have been frail since you were a child, and your parents only hope that you can live a safe and happy life, and you will be satisfied. ”
Yun Lanyan didn't know how to answer her father, so she was stunned for a long time and didn't speak. But he knew in his heart that it wasn't what he liked. The principle of not doing to others what you would not do to yourself was taught to you by my father, but when it came to myself, I couldn't choose for myself.
That night, Grandma Sun took care of Lan Yan to sleep, but he pestered her mother-in-law to tell him a story.
Grandma Sun couldn't help it, so she had to tell him the origin of Qianshan City:
Legend has it that there were once advanced practitioners in the mountains who retreated in the mountains. At the time of success, the rainbow light in the mountains flashed out, and the Tao flew into immortals, and the demons and monsters within a radius of 100 miles were afraid of the immortal supernatural powers, and all of them fled. Later, the place where the immortals retreated and cultivated, was discovered and slowly established the Thousand Mountains City. This Thousand Mountain City has also been protected by the enchantment left by the immortals, and in this troubled era where demons and demons are in charge, it can keep one side safe.
Grandma Sun saw that the young man gradually closed his eyes and fell asleep, and also got up to rest.
Who knew that it would not be long after the old man left.
Yun Lanyan secretly got up. Get dressed and sneak out the back door of the house. I thought in my heart that the old Taoist priest had said during the day that he would worship at the immortal temple on the top of the mountain for one night, and he would leave tomorrow morning. I also heard the people in the city say that at sunrise, if there is an opportunity on the top of the mountain outside the city, you can see the manifestation of immortals.
This time he has to make his own choice, if he really encounters an immortal manifestation that can cure his body, at least he has to try to ask the old Taoist priest to accept him as an apprentice.
Yun Lanyan once overheard the servant of the family privately mention that all this was because when he was born, a purple light suddenly condensed in the sky above the mansion, and a pink light crossed the sky like a meteor, and then triggered the demon enchantment of Thousand Mountains City, and the pink light disappeared. But the purple light was condensed, and the cry of the baby was also missing.
While thinking about this, he walked, and in a blink of an eye, he had quietly walked out of the city gate.
