At noon, in a certain mountain range of the Wei State. The young man walked with difficulty under the scorching sun and carrying a pyre half a head taller than him.

The boy's skin is slightly dark, his body is also a little thin, and his eyes are extraordinarily bright against the backdrop of his face.

Sweat soaked his clothes, and the boy didn't care about it, and still took steady steps.

The soles of his feet were already red, and the black straw sandals had been worn to shreds, and dry blood stains could be faintly seen.

It's hard to imagine that a ten-year-old child can have such perseverance...

After walking for several hours, the boy finally slowed down. It was already close to evening, and the smoke of the cooking could be seen not far away.

As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, a little girl a few years younger than him came out to greet him and obediently helped him carry the pyre on his back.

Although the little girl is wearing tattered clothes, she has bright eyes and bright teeth, and her face is delicate, revealing a different kind of cuteness.

The boy smiled and took out a packet of wild fruits from his arms.

"Little sister, this is a berry I specially picked and is sweet. ”

"I'll just need one, and I'll leave the rest for my brother!" she picked a smaller berry from it and carefully put it away.

"No need, my brother has already eaten, and I was full when I picked it, and these are all left for you. ”

The boy said these words without the slightest abnormality, and the little girl seemed to have noticed something, and tears appeared in the corners of her eyes......

The boy's name is Jiang Yu, and the little girl is his sister named Jiang Wen, and the brother and sister depend on each other.

As for their parents, they left them at the beginning of Jiang Yu's memory.

Jiang Yu vaguely remembered that there was a white-bearded old man in the house that day. The old man just glanced at Jiang Yu and shook his head, and then left with Jiang Yu's father.

He couldn't forget the look in his horrified eyes...

Later, his mother also quietly left, and on the day of her departure, she told him to take care of his sister, saying that she would come back in a few days, and it turned out that she had been gone for five years.

Originally, Jiang Yu's family still had a few houses, and even a lot of silver, but they belonged to a rich and noble family in the village.

It stands to reason that the money is enough for the daily expenses of the brother and sister, and this money was robbed by Wang Hu from the same village a year after his parents left.

The brother and sister could only live in a dilapidated thatched hut, which was given to them by the villagers when they were not wanted.

Wang Hu killed pigs in the village, and he looked fierce and vicious, and no one dared to provoke him in the village. Besides, he still knows a few officials, and this matter is not over, and the officials will not go to the countryside to take care of these trivial matters.

When the people in the village saw that Jiang Yu's brothers and sisters were pitiful, they would occasionally send them some food, which was not enough for the two brothers and sisters who were growing up.

Since four years ago, Jiang Yu began to go up the mountain to chop firewood and collect medicine for a living, and he shouldered the burden of life alone.

Because he heard that berries could be picked in a certain place where he chopped firewood, Jiang Yu would run so far.

Since his parents left, his sister has become his only one.

Without the protection of his parents, he naturally had to be ridiculed by his peers.

Once when the children in the same village laughed at Jiang Wen as a wild seed, Jiang Yu immediately rushed up to fight with others, Jiang Yu looked a little thin, and there was always a ruthlessness in the fight, and over time, few peers took care of them.

The departure of his parents had already made Jiang Yu develop a calm character, so he naturally didn't care so much.

"Girl, why are you crying! my brother will lie to you. Jiang Yu gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Jiang Wen's eyes.

"It's not good to cry, go and go my brother to make something to eat for you." ”

The brother and sister walked towards the hut, and Jiang Yu greeted the villagers from time to time.

Many villagers have a very good impression of Jiang Yu, in their words, it is much better than their own rabbits.

Everyone looked at the emaciated figure and shook their heads helplessly.

There was a burst of fragrance from the dilapidated thatched hut, and it had to be said that Jiang Yu had absolute skills in cooking, even if those meals were just some coarse grains.

Soon, the meals were clean. Jiang Yu, who was tired from a day's work, lay down in bed early, which was the most comfortable time of his day.

Late at night, Jiang Yu looked at the dilapidated roof, and through some large gaps, the sky full of stars came into view.

Jiang Yu sighed lightly, his face a little more melancholy. The figure of his parents reappeared in his mind, and he couldn't forget those two faces.

At first, Jiang Yu hated them, hated why they abandoned him, and that hatred had disappeared as time passed.

He decided that when his sister was a little older, the two of them would go to the outside world to have a look, at least to know what had happened back then.

At this moment, two rays of light intertwined from the top of the sky, and even a vague figure could be seen!

The two rays of light were particularly dazzling in the night, and those two rays of light alone made Jiang Yu's eyes tingle, and even dense bloodshots appeared.

Jiang Yu's heart was already in an uproar.

What is that? Could it be a legendary immortal?

Cultivating immortals is a well-known thing in this world, and Jiang Yu often hears some legends of immortal cultivators in the mouths of old men. Legend has it that immortal cultivators flew into the sky and even moved mountains to reclaim the sea.

Two rays of light flashed, leaving no trace, and Jiang Yu touched his stinging eyes.

Looking at the normal night sky, there was excitement in his eyes, but also a faint disappointment.

Ordinary people would definitely be afraid if they saw an immortal cultivator, but Jiang Yu was a little excited, and even wanted to take a closer look at the immortal.

After all, Jiang Yu is just a child, and even the puppet will still have some careful thoughts, he thinks that seeing the immortal is an extremely noble thing, and maybe he can brag about it in the future.

In his heart, he is full of curiosity about cultivating immortals, and sometimes he often has some strange dreams, which are naturally inextricably related to cultivating immortals, of course, this is just a dream.

If others knew that a little kid in the countryside actually dreamed of cultivating immortals, it would definitely become a big joke!

Who can cultivate immortals is not one in a million, and even if there is this opportunity, it may not be able to successfully cultivate.

Jiang Yu has always kept this idea in his heart, this little secret that belongs to him, even his sister doesn't know about it.

Instead of thinking about those ethereal immortal cultivators, it is better to take the test for a showman, and you can also ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing.

Jiang Yu is a smart child in the village, and he occasionally went to the village private school to eavesdrop, and he also learned a lot of things.

Thinking of Kao Xiucai, Jiang Yu sighed again, he heard that Kao Xiucai still had to pay a certain fee, but there were only a few copper plates left on him.

Because Jiang Wen has been weak and sick since she was a child, in order to make up for Jiang Wen's body, she borrowed Uncle Zhang's two taels of silver a few months ago, and I don't know when I have to pay it off.

The young man glanced at his sleeping sister, leaving the figure he saw just now, it was already late at night, if he didn't sleep now, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get up the next day, and after a while, Jiang Yu closed his eyes.

Jiang Yu, who was asleep, didn't know what was going on, he didn't know that after the two rays of light flashed just now, someone had already rushed here, and those people were the immortals in Jiang Yu's mouth!

However, what happens next will make a qualitative change in his life!

The morning sun reflected, the two siblings got up early and were busy, and Jiang Wen was fiddling with breakfast in the house.

Jiang Yu took out bundles of medicinal herbs from the house, these medicinal herbs were some common medicinal herbs, and they were naturally not worth a few dollars.

For Jiang Yu, these are all good things, and after the medicinal materials are dried, they can be worth more than a dozen copper plates, thinking of this, Jiang Yu was a little excited, and he was one step closer to paying off the two taels of silver.

"Xiao Yu, I got up so early. Yo, there are so many medicinal herbs, you kid can do it. At this time, a middle-aged man came up to him and said with a smile.

This person is none other than Uncle Zhang, that is, his creditor. Jiang Yu greeted Uncle Zhang obediently, and Uncle Zhang was very satisfied with Jiang Yu's well-behavedness, and nodded lightly.

"My mother-in-law made some meat buns, so she brought some for you. Uncle Zhang's family often helped their two brothers and sisters, and Jiang Yu always felt a little reluctant in his heart, and Uncle Zhang was stuffed in his arms.

"By the way, last time you asked me to sell those medicinal herbs sold for ten copper plates, give this money. ”

Every time Uncle Zhang went to the city, he would bring the medicinal herbs picked by Jiang Yu to sell, no, he sent the money to Jiang Yu.

"Uncle Zhang, I still owe you two taels of silver, so I should pay back some of these first. ”

"Okay, then next time I'll help you bring these medicinal herbs to the city. ”

After Uncle Zhang left, Jiang Yu's face became a little unnatural, although Uncle Zhang was embarrassed to speak, he could also see a little bit of Uncle Zhang's meaning.

It is natural to repay debts, and Jiang Yu has no intention of repaying debts.

Uncle Zhang has also helped them a lot over the years, and he knows who Uncle Zhang is, unless he encounters any trouble, Uncle Zhang will be like this.

One or two pieces of silver is almost a thousand copper plates, Jiang Yu has to pick so many medicinal materials, maybe it will take a few years, and the nearby mountains and forests have been run all over by him, and the medicinal materials have been picked up.
