Chapter 1 Xuanyuan Jindan Jue
At the foot of Qiyun Mountain, a wide river meanders and circles, and from a distance, it looks like a blue dragon traveling around the mountain. The mountains stretch for hundreds of miles, and the clouds and mist are steaming, like a fairy wonderland.
On the inner side of the river, several stone houses stand by the mountain, and there are several hunters living under the mountain, and the mulberry acacia is everywhere, the smoke rises, and a few dirty little pigs move the stones on the ground, humming and running, leisurely.
The sun rises from the eastern sky, crosses the top of Qiyun Mountain, and casts a mottled shadow on the ground through the gap between the leaves of the locust tree, phosphorescent and cool.
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy sat cross-legged on the bluestone under the locust tree, motionless, a hazy mist circulating between his mouth and nose, and then quickly drifting away, disappearing without a trace.
"Hey, failed again. Chu Mo opened his eyes and shook his head helplessly. Then he took out a crumpled little book from his bosom and opened it for a few looks.
"That's right. Chu Mo frowned, and said to himself: "Concentrate and lift your energy, there are no distractions in your heart, I have already done all this, how can I still fail?"
He recalled the cultivation during this time, under the nourishment of the essence, the soul had turned into a condensed Yin God, but no matter what, the Yin God could not fly out of the body.
What went wrong?
"Baby, it's time to eat!" At this moment, there was a shout in the distance, followed by a faint cough.
The foot of the mountain quickly became quiet again, and a few water gulls flew up from the surface of the river, gradually turning into small dots and disappearing into the sky.
Chu Mo came back to his senses from his thoughts, put away the book, and ran towards the wooden house, but unexpectedly, he bumped into Uncle Liu who came to the door head-on.
"You milk baby, you run so fast when you are told to eat? I know how to eat, and I don't see you go up to the mountains to hunt, and there are too many days when you open your mouth when you eat, are you ashamed?" Uncle Liu scolded as soon as he came up, and his eyes were full of helplessness when he looked at Chu Mo, and he looked like he hated iron but not steel.
Chu Mo's face flushed, indeed, in the past year, he had not gone up the mountain to hunt once, and his clothing and consumption were all controlled by the Chu Li clan. Recently, Chu Li's family has been sick again, and there is not much food at home, and it is estimated that he will have to drink the northwest wind in a few days.
Uncle Liu is the oldest person at the foot of the mountain, and he is also half a neighbor, so he has a lot of worries about this matter, hoping that he can help the family share some of it.
Chu Mo nodded seriously, but he smiled bitterly in his heart. It's not impossible to go up the mountain to hunt, but the premise is that the person who hunts should not be him, but the original owner of this body!
That's right, Chu Mo traveled from the twenty-first century, and after a year of groping and inquiry, he finally figured out the situation in this world. The country in which he lived was called the Shengzhi Dynasty, which was very similar to the Ming Dynasty of China, and its customs and habits were almost carved out of a mold. Qiyun Mountain is located on the border of Jiangzhou, information is closed, except for a few sellers who come to exchange some daily necessities and animal skins every year, it can be said that it is almost isolated from the world.
Now, asking him to go hunting is almost equivalent to going to die! As a young man who grew up in a city, it is rare to see pheasants and ducks, so where can he hunt? Wild beasts are rampant on Qiyun Mountain, poisonous insects are everywhere, and rabbits will bite people in different ways. For an inexperienced person, not to hunt, but to deliver food to wild beasts.
Seeing Chu Mo nodding, Uncle Liu couldn't say anything, sighed, and slowly walked back with a cigarette pouch.
Chu Mo opened the fence and happened to see Chu Li vigorously moving a grinding plate, his head was covered with beads of sweat, and his black and white head was sticking to his forehead, looking very embarrassed.
"Mother, I'll help you!" Chu Mo hurriedly ran over and helped Chu Li lift the grinding plate.
"Go, go, eat, it's good to have a mother here, you have to rush to Mr. Jia after eating, don't delay your homework." Chu Li hurriedly drove Chu Mo away, he didn't catch his breath, and he couldn't stop coughing.
"I'll come, mother, have you forgotten? Mr. Jia went elsewhere a few days ago, and it is estimated that he will never come back. Chu Mo pulled his mother up, patted the dust on her body, and said with a smile.
"Also, look at my mother's memory, Mr. Jia is a learned person, but he won't always stay in our ravine. Chu Li laughed, found a stool to sit down, and beat his back with his hands.
Chu Mo saw it in his eyes and hurt in his heart. Anyway, the mother in front of him is the mother of this body, and now that he occupies this body, he should be his own mother. He also likes this feeling and doesn't want his mother to suffer anymore.
"Mother, tomorrow I will go up to the mountains to hunt, and get a few pheasants to come back to replenish your body. ”
"Then how can you do it!" Chu Li was shocked and said hurriedly: "Even if Mr. Jia leaves, you have to continue to study, if you waste your studies, how can you be worthy of Mr. Jia's kindness! Mr. Jia said that you are the material for studying, you should study at home, and in the future, you will be famous and glorify your ancestors, but don't live up to the talent that your ancestors gave you!"
Chu Mo didn't know what to say, Chu Li had always listened to Mr. Jia's words the most, and never asked who this gentleman who appeared out of thin air was, he only knew that he was a learned person who could help Chu Mo gain fame, so he obeyed him.
Only Chu Mo himself knows that the so-called Mr. Jia is actually just a child, and he has read a lot of subsets of scriptures and history, but when it comes to exams, there is still a long way to go before Xiucai. Chu Mo was a college student majoring in Chinese language in his previous life, and according to the degree conversion, he was equivalent to a person in this era, but he was much more advanced than him, a boy who had just graduated from elementary school.
The reason why Chu Mo ran to Mr. Jia's house every day was not because of the subset of scriptures and histories he learned, but because of the mysterious and mysterious ghosts and gods and monsters!
If it was in his previous life, Chu Mo would never believe in these unscientific things anyway, but since he experienced the crossing incident, the original belief in his heart has collapsed. After Mr. Jia showed his hand, he immediately wanted to learn from his teacher sincerely.
Mr. Jia is not clumsy, he has already reached the age of old age, there is no child under his knees, seeing that Chu Mo has a good idea, and he is filial enough to the old man, he accepted this apprentice after a few days of small tests. After a year, he saw that his son could be taught, so he taught the family heirloom book "Xuanyuan Jindan Jue" to Chu Mo.
It's just that Mr. Jia seemed to have encountered something tricky a few days ago, so he solemnly explained to Chu Mo and left in a hurry......
Although Mr. Jia is gone, he still has to live, for Chu Mo, he cultivates these ghosts and monsters, in fact, there is a more important purpose, that is, to figure out why he crossed over!
Didn't he inadvertently do something good in his previous life, so he didn't need to drink Meng Po soup, nor did he need to be reincarnated, and he was directly attached to a ready-made body?
Chu Mo couldn't figure it out, and he didn't want to spend time thinking about these fruitless questions. According to the book, as long as he condenses his soul into a yin god, he can walk between yin and yang in another form, and he can go to some places that mortals can't reach.
For example, Hades.
This is also his purpose, as long as he goes to the underworld to inquire, all doubts will be solved.
