The car turned around the thirty-mile mountain road, and suddenly opened up, it was the heavy snow season, and the climate here was still warm.

The valley basin is dozens of miles round, the center is the village in the north, a river with a width of more than ten zhang, there are embankments on both sides, the waterfall flows out from the foot of the snow-capped mountain in the northwest, it flows out of the valley in the southeast, there are two stone bridges on the river, the fields around the village are scattered, the water flows from three horizontal and nine channels, and several places in the middle are stored in the horizontal pond like a mirror. The road is wide and smooth, and tall poplars are planted on both sides, just like a chess game.

The village is built according to the topography, the blue bricks, green tiles and white walls, the bluestone base is solid, the road is neat and spacious and the bluestone is paved, it is also a pattern of three horizontal and three vertical, the willow locust poplar trees are planted all over, which makes the village lush and green, and there are several small bamboo forests and several resting pavilions.

There are figures of ploughing in the fields, and there is the sound of reading books in the village.

The two got out of the carriage, held the child, and looked at the beautiful scenery of the countryside, unable to believe their eyes.

"Hello, stranger, who is Li Tianxu?" An old and deep voice came from behind, and the two hurriedly turned around to look.

Seeing that there was a pavilion at the corner of the valley, there was a white-haired old man and a middle-aged Confucian scholar, who was talking to the old man, the two hurriedly gave a salute, and the woman gave the child in her arms a little, and the man replied: "My son's name is Li Tianxu, and my name is Li Zuyi." ”

"Haha. The white-haired old man smiled: "My name is Li Wanshan, and I am the village chief here, and you call me the second uncle." Pointing to the middle-aged Confucian scholar: "His name is Chen Wenbo, and he is the gentleman of the teaching workshop here." Child, it's home. ”

That night, when the child is in charge, the end of the heavy snowfall, the beginning of the winter solstice, the yin and yang of heaven and earth rotate, the heavy snow is overwhelming, the village is silent, the snow underground luck flows, and finally condenses into a huge torrent into the land temple in the north of the village through the convergence of various places, the candle flame on the table sways without wind, the three pillars of sandalwood in the incense burner, the green smoke curls, the land god moves slightly, the old man who seems to have been sitting for a long time moves the sour body, and exhales a few breaths of turbidity.

He sighed to himself: "I have accumulated this fortune for a thousand years, and then I have won the incense of the Shinto Buddha for a thousand years, and once I give it to that child, I don't know how many tribulations that child will have to use in this life to eliminate karma, and how much suffering will he have to endure this calamity." Is that possible the thousand-year-old national fortune of the Great Chen Kingdom?"

As he said to himself, he looked up and saw three cyan curtains: "This means of covering the heavens is really wonderful, and it is also fortunate that this child has escaped premature exposure to the power of heaven." After that, he muttered slightly: "In this case, I will also give this child a gift, to see if this child can catch it, I have little time anyway, why don't I hand it all over to him, just like the master, fight for the lives of all with one life." Then he smiled slyly: "Senior brother, anyway, you are here, I have guarded this child for ten years, and the rest will be handed over to you." ”

In an instant, the land of more than 1,000 years seemed to collapse into powder, and at the same time, somewhere above the village, a thunderclap resounded throughout the valley, and the winter thunder indicated that the luck of Confucianism was reversed, and Chen Jiarui's blessed land was officially opened.

It is fifteen years again, the national fortune of the Great Chen State has been poor year after year, the Great Chen Emperor Chen Jiarui has been approaching the twilight of the year, the Great Liang and the Great Yan State from the east and the north at the same time, in the north, the Great Yan State released the Qiang Rong Iron Horse into the pass, impacting and harassing the villages and towns of Yizhou, and the Great Yan took advantage of the flood season to open the Yellow River embankment at the same time, flooding the Yizhou thousands of miles of fertile fields.

When Dachen mobilized people and horses from other states and counties, Daliang State, after more than ten years of soldiers, took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, especially tens of thousands of mountain troops, crossed the Jeju Hengliang Mountains, chose the canyon to be steep and precipitous with boulders, and rolled wood to cut off the Dachen Hanji Post Road, Jiyang was alone, and the war crisis was in danger, and it was possible to lose Jeju completely.

In Luoxia Village, the impact of the war has not been affected for the time being, and the life of the villagers is still peaceful and calm.

The child named Li Tianxu has now grown into a fifteen-year-old boy, the child was silent before the age of five, and usually only stared at something, such as ants, such as flowers, such as grass that had just broken the ground, such as looking up at the clouds in the sky, or even a glass of water, a grain of sand, flames, nails, sawdust, smoke, rain, snowflakes, lightning, in short, it was a few hours, and his expression was cloudy and uncertain, frowning, sighing, and delighted......

Li Zuyi and his wife, at first, were more anxious, and found Mr. Chen in the workshop, and Mr. Chen told them that it was okay, this is the child is enlightened, silent for three years, like the closed mouth meditation practiced by the Buddhist family, which is not only to repay karma, but also to practice.

When the child finally began to speak, he kept talking, chattering and chattering all day long, and he was also talking in his dreams at night, and drinking water during meals could not affect his speech. His parents and the people in the village couldn't understand what he said, so they regarded him as a fool, and only Mr. Chen could talk with him, sometimes when it came to emotional places, and laugh and cry with the children. And so on for another three years. Mr. Chen said that this is also the elimination of karmic retribution, and it is also a form of spiritual practice.

Li Zuyi and his wife were finally exhausted and disappointed, but the village chief Li Wanshan often enlightened them, in addition to taking care of the children to eat and drink, they gave up the plan to teach their children a skill, so when the child was eight years old, they had a younger sister, and the couple had a new spiritual support, so they had a new hope.

When the child is eight years old, he no longer stays quietly, so the whole village can find the child in any corner, go to the house, climb the tree, get into the soil, go down to the river, go up the mountain, drill the cave, and drill the woods. Sometimes I don't go home for three or five days, and the same is true of extremely cold and hot rainstorms and thunder.

Li Zuyi and his wife, but they were a little broken, at first Li Zuyi still wanted to follow the child, don't have any accidents, and found that it was impossible at all, the child disappeared not long after he went out, and Li Zuyi gave up completely. Mr. Chen said that this is a child's cultivation and physical exercise.

The child is ten years old, and finally stopped all the absurd behavior, in the early morning of the day, the child got up, a jingle busy work, and when Li Zuyi and his wife got up after hearing the sound, a table of meals has been prepared. Seeing the child kneeling in front of him, he kowtowed three times respectfully, and said normal words for the first time: "Dad, mother, let your second elder suffer, I will start to help my father farm the land today and help my mother take care of my sister." ”

The couple was so amazed that they hugged the child and cried together, "Child, you have suffered." "Father, mother, the child is not bitter, the bitterness in the heart is the real bitterness, and your second elder has been tired by the child in the past ten years. The husband and wife are even more sad, and they have vented their grievances for ten years, and they are willing to come to their ends.

The parents didn't know that there was an elder last night, who was attached to the land here, the seventh son of Confucianism, Meng He, completely left this world, desperately to maintain the remnants of the soul for ten years, using his immortal realm and the luck accumulated in this world for thousands of years, using the thousand-year-old incense background of Shinto Buddha and the thousand-year-old national fortune of the Great Chen Kingdom to open up the child, bypassing the practice of qi, building the foundation, Jindan, Yuanying, turning into a god, soaring, immortality, until the insight into the realm, gaining insight, and at the same time using the Confucian secret heavenly machine technique, for its righteous heart and root bones, to create incorruptible three souls and seven spirits。

So the master and apprentice really didn't have a little time, because the smaller the baby, the stronger the chaotic qi of the world was unopened, at this time the child was ruthless and desireless, the six roots were pure, and the pure yang qi had not been dispersed at all, and the practice of this period was worth a hundred days and thousands of days for others, even so, the elder had not wasted any time in these ten years.

The so-called immortality is that the soul is not bad, the evil is not close, the water and fire are not close, the thunder does not move, the samadhi fire does not burn, the wind does not disperse, it is not in the five elements, and it does not enter the reincarnation.

The children of the relevant teachers only know that the master asks the way of heaven and damages all his cultivation, luck and the way of immortality, so as to win the opportunity for immortality for the common people in the world. Master and six other brothers and sisters have been cursed by heaven and cannot live forever, and their souls have been damaged, and their whereabouts must be hidden when they walk in the world.

Bidding farewell to the master who has guarded him for ten years, the child cried all night, he knew how hard it was for the master to maintain the remnants of the soul for ten years, and what the master gave him.

At this point, the child completely returns to the appearance of a normal child, because the karma has disappeared.

So, ten-year-old Li Tianxu helped his father farm during the day, went to school in the afternoon, went home to help his mother take care of his sister, practiced boxing and sword with his father at night, went hunting in the mountains with Uncle Xiaoman in his spare time, went to the carpenter shop to help Uncle Zude pull the ink line, went to the blacksmith shop to help pull the bellows, went to the wine shop to help seal the wine jar, went to the kiln to watch the fire, went to the grocery store to earn and drink, went to the ancestral hall to play with children of the same age, listened to the old village chief tell the story of Lijia Village in the past, and was touched by the smell of incense in the world, and the spirit of mixed yuan was never seen again.

The child has also become the most endearing child in the village, and Zhao Siwu is greedy: "God, is it okay to be my apprentice?" "It's not good, I can't carry your axe"

Who doesn't want to have such a well-behaved apprentice, but the child knows that his master is gone......

The most I go to is the land temple, sitting on the futon, looking at the incense, reminiscing with the master, it seems that I can still hear the master's words, often at this time, Mr. Chen will come to accompany him, he knows that Mr. Chen is his uncle, and he is also the person who gives him luck and has been taking care of him. Mr. Chen told him the story of his master: "From the time we were very young when we studied with our ancestors, your master was the most kind-hearted. ”

"So Uncle Shi, what is the outside world like?"

"The heart here is simple, and the most suitable spiritual root to nurture you is that there are many ghosts and ghosts in the outside world, ghosts and monsters, and there are many Taoist sects, Taoist sects, Buddhist disciples, soldiers, legalists, yin and yang families, Mo families and many other holy ancestors.

"Then uncle, what kind of sect are we, are we very powerful? ”

"Our family is not a sect, we are Confucianism, your ancestor is indeed short-tempered, but Haoran righteousness is indeed strong, we are not good at fighting, except for your ancestor, when it comes to theorizing with the Heavenly Dao, those people can only hide from afar. ”

"Then Uncle Shi, how can you be so powerful with your ancestor. ”

"Child, this is what you need to pull out the sword of Confucianism, raise the spirit of Haoran in the world, the purpose of cultivation is to pursue immortality, how difficult the process is, and it also coincides with the meeting, and it is only when you find the opportunity to succeed. The Qi Refining Realm belongs to the beginning of the acupoint, which can absorb the spirit of heaven and earth, and the root bones of the Zhuji Realm are strong enough to lift a thousand catties, the Jindan Realm can fly with a sword, the Yuan Infant Realm can be thousands of miles in an instant, the Transformation God Realm can be changeable, and the Flying Ascension Realm can be regarded as becoming an immortal. ”

"Then uncle, what realm are you, and what realm is my master. ”

"Although we went to the Immortal Realm, but they said that the way of heaven does not allow it, your ancestor fought with them, and in the end he lost, not because he couldn't fight, but because he ......" Chen Wenbo said that his eyes were foggy here, and the man who stood up to the sky and the earth appeared, rubbing his eyes and touching Tianxu's head

"So, you can live forever. ”

"Then Uncle Shi, what about immortality. ”

"Further up, only your ancestor knows, you can peek into the whole world. ”

"Is it possible to see far, far away, to see very small, very small. ”

"What? What can you see?"

"I can see it. Tianxu pulled off one of his hairs at once, and said, "Uncle Shi, for example, this hair, don't look at it very thin, in fact, in my opinion, it is very big, it is made up of many, many small particles, sucked together by strength." ”
