In the Tian Yuan Continent, there are many clans, countless kingdoms, and endless disputes. There is a country called Qi, close to 100,000 mountains, and exotic beasts and trees are like constant sand. Changrong City is a small city in the south of Qi Province close to the 100,000 mountains, due to the trade of wild beasts and herbs, it is extremely prosperous here, and there is a lot of people all year round. Therefore, countless clans, large and small, have made a fortune here, and it is like a paradise on earth.

There is a small town next to Changrong City, called Wanjia Town. In the middle of nowhere, a small clear river flows from south to north, with clear water and fat fish. To the east of the river, there is a small forest, and in the woods there is an open area with a radius of several hundred meters, and a slightly dilapidated wooden house is located in the middle. The wooden house consists of a hall and two side rooms. In front of the house is a courtyard with a radius of 100 meters, enclosed by a wooden fence, and in the middle of the yard a road paved with bluestone slabs extends to the front of the wooden house. On both sides of the path are two small gardens enclosed by a fence made of bamboo, one side is planted with some home-made vegetables and condiments such as onions and garlic, and the other side is full of common medicinal herbs that are one to several years old.

It was noon, inside and outside the yard, the grass and trees were overgrown, insects and birds were famous, and several hens were also resting in the shade.

Suddenly, a cough came from the side room on the west side of the wooden house, and then a crisp female voice came out: "Childe, you have finally woken up! You have been in a coma for a day and a night, you are hungry, I will serve you a bowl of green vegetable porridge." ”

Zhang Fan woke up from the dream, exhausted, but listening to the girl's caring voice, he was a little moved, but unfortunately the current son is no longer the person in the girl's mouth, but a modern youth from the earth - Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was originally an ordinary college graduate, who had just entered the rivers and lakes and had little experience, because he stayed up late all day long, quarreled with his girlfriend, and finally lost love. The double blow of heavy life pressure and loss of love made Zhang Fan use alcohol to drown his sorrows, and after an overdrinking, the young body that had already been terrible collapsed, and he should have died and died, but he was reborn in this thirteen-year-old boy by chance. The former owner of Lin Yu's current body died after a high fever in the rain a few days ago, and he came from another world, of course, now he is Zhang Fan, except for himself, no one will know this absurd and uninhibited secret.

Zhang Fan was originally a child of an ordinary family, and his parents were both members of the hunting and medicine collection army native to Lingjia Town, but he went to the depths of the beast forest a few months ago and never returned. The girl who spoke just now was a baby girl adopted by Zhang Fan's parents in her early years, and when she grew up, she became his stand-in maid (part-time child daughter-in-law). After losing his parents, Zhang Fan's originally wealthy life became extremely difficult. In the past few months, he has been immersed in the grief of the disappearance of his parents, and his young age and confusion about the future have made Xiao Zhang Fan a young man.

The past is gone, after Zhang Fan digested the memories of his predecessor, he knew that he didn't need to argue about the past Lin Yu and Zhang Fan now, they should cheer up and tide over the difficulties in front of them. Zhang Fan's parents' meager savings have been decreasing little by little in the past few months, and he must find a way to make a living, but there is really nothing to use except for the herbal knowledge that his parents have taught him for many years. In view of his own advantages, Zhang Fan had to take the risk of his parents' old business.

As soon as Zhang Fan barely got up from the bed, the bedroom door opened.

"Childe, why don't you lie on the bed and rest? The doctor said, your illness is not cured yet?" I saw a maid about one meter and a half, wearing a long blue cloth skirt, holding a bowl of green vegetable porridge, walking towards Zhang Fan on the bed while talking. He knew that the maid's nickname was Xue'er, so he replied a little reluctantly: "Xue'er, don't worry, I'm not already well, I've worked hard for you these days!" "Childe, don't say that." It's because I didn't take good care of my son as the lord and my wife told me, and I made my son suffer. The girl's face was full of worry and said apologetically, "Since the lord and the lady are gone, this family has to be run by the son, and it is really difficult for the son." Zhang Fan, an aspiring young man, was very helpless when he heard the little girl's words, but he comforted Xue'er again, and then got up from the bed with some difficulty, moved his stiff limbs slightly, pretended to be fine, and said with a smile: "Don't believe it? Look, I'm fine." Xue'er saw that her son-in-law was indeed much better, and the haze in her heart disappeared all at once. The two talked for a while, and Zhang Fan didn't want to stay in bed all the time, so he went to the hospital with Xue'er's support.

When Zhang Fan's family came to the courtyard, they saw that in front of the house was a large courtyard nearly 100 meters wide and surrounded by a wooden fence. There is a path paved with bluestone slabs in the middle of the courtyard. On the left is a vegetable garden, full of common fruits and vegetables, including greens, peppers, cucumbers, and so on. On the right is a medicine garden dotted with common herbs such as ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum and Ganoderma lucidum.

The green vegetables are full of vitality in the warm sun, the fragrance of the herbs is fragrant, and the hens hiding in the shade are drowsy, Zhang Fan can't help but think of the high-rise buildings in his memory, such as weaving cars and pedestrians, noisy streets, bad air and busy work all day long, a warmth wells up in his heart.

Looking at Childe's obsessive appearance, Xue'er couldn't help but be a little stunned on her little face, and muttered: "Childe is still the same as before, he always likes to stay in the yard, looking at vegetables and medicinal herbs in a daze. Hearing this, Zhang Fan was a little speechless in his heart, and thought: "I'm not the Zhang Fan of the past, according to memory, the reason why that guy looks at the yard in a daze every day is because he looks forward to the green vegetables in the garden growing up all day long and seeing which hen lays eggs again." I don't have his hobby, hehe. But since he took over his body, he must live well and help him fulfill his unfulfilled wish by the way. After walking around the yard a few times, Zhang Fan suddenly remembered something and went back to the house with Xue'er.

Back in the hall, Zhang Fan came to his father's study in the east side room, picked up the two animal skin books that his father had left, like bricks and bricks, and was covered with dust, and looked through them at random, and found that these two books actually had things that he dreamed of.

In Wanjia Town, these two books are relatively common books. A book called Common Herbal Medicine, which explains the characteristics, growth habits and collection methods of hundreds of common herbs, which is of great help to medicine pickers. The other is called Xiao Chao Yuan Gong, which is the internal strength of Zhang Fan's family's practice, although it is only a first-class heart method, and the cultivation speed is slow, but it is better to be peaceful in the middle, and the inner breath of cultivation is relatively deep.

Zhang Fan first picked up the encyclopedia of common herbs, looked at it carefully for a while, and recalled that the knowledge of several common herbs was roughly mastered by Zhang Fan. Then, he carefully flipped through the secret book of martial arts that countless earthlings had dreamed of, but after a few minutes, he showed a puzzled and puzzled look on his face, and muttered: "Although the name of Little Mixed Yuan Gong is not bad, the real cultivation method is very simple. If I hadn't been practicing for nearly ten years, I would have thought that the book was talking nonsense. ”

"Sit cross-legged in a quiet place, close your eyes and breathe, sink your dantian, and your consciousness is empty. Slowly absorb qi into the body, one long and three short, night and day, there is qi into the body, follow the two veins of Ren Du, the eight veins of the Qi meridian, the twelve meridians, the operation of the acupoints around the body, and finally enter the dantian"

"Although this internal skill is neutral and peaceful, the cultivation speed is too slow. However, for now, I can only cultivate first, and then talk about good exercises later. After reading the cultivation method of Xiao Chao Yuan Gong and recalling his cultivation process for nearly ten years for a while, Zhang Fan said to himself.

After reading the contents of the two books, Zhang Fan returned to the hall. "Childe, the meal is ready, let's have lunch. Seeing Childe come out of the room, Cher shouted.

Zhang Fan heard Xue'er's voice, and saw that she had already brought the food to the table in the middle of the hall, and found that he had turned around, and read the book for a while, and the vegetable porridge he had eaten before had already been digested, and he didn't say anything, so he came to the table and sat down, and said to Xue'er at the same time: "Okay, let's eat." ”

The two sat down at the table and began to eat.

"Xue'er, have you been to Changrong City?" Zhang Fan wanted to know some about the surrounding situation, and while eating, he casually asked Xue'er on the other side. "Been there once. I remember when I was five years old, my wife took me to the city to sell things, and I went with her. But after a long time, my impression of Changrong City is a little vague, I only remember that Changrong City is big, full of people, very lively, there are many stalls selling snacks, dense shops, as for the rest, it is gone. ”

Hearing Xue'er describe what he had seen and heard, Zhang Fan felt a little funny, and thought: "Changrong City may be a bit like Chang'an and Luoyang in ancient times, but listening to Xue'er, Changrong is still quite prosperous." Well, be sure to check it out when you have time. ”

"Xue'er, how much silver do we have in our family now?" Zhang Fan asked habitually. Xue'er was a little sad when she heard Childe ask about the situation at home, and said with a worried face: "Childe, we don't have much money in our family anymore. Since the disappearance of the old lady a few months ago, the family has no other income. Now, everything we eat was bought by my wife a few months ago. However, if we save a little and eat more vegetables in the future, we can barely support it until the end of the year. ”

Hearing Xue'er's words, Zhang Fan felt a little heavy, and thought: "The family is very poor, and even food and clothing are a problem." It seems that he is ready to find something to do to increase his family's income. So he assured Xue'er: "Xue'er, don't worry." Now that I'm much better, I'm going to earn money to support the two of us, and then find out why my parents are missing. ”

Zhang Fan's words made Xue'er's heart warm. She didn't want Childe to worry, so she comforted: "Childe, you should recover at home first in the next few days." As long as you are in good health, you can support the whole family. As for making money and finding the lord and wife, let's talk about it later. When you get better, I will earn money with my son, and then I will go to find out the whereabouts of the lord and the lady. How?"

Then the two chatted about some trivial matters at home.
