Chapter 1
Chapter 1
In the early spring, the grass grows and the warblers fly, which is a great time.Outside Xujia Village, in a land with clear mountains and clear waters, a young man was lying on his back on the lush grass, with his arms behind his head, in a leisurely and comfortable posture.
The pale golden sunlight hit the boy's face, which was warm and soft, and he squinted his eyes in comfort, resting peacefully.
This stay lasted all afternoon, and in the evening, when the last rays of light disappeared from the sky, the boy yawned lazily and sat up.
Walking to the entrance of the village, a boy dressed as a servant trotted towards him and said in a quick voice: "Young master, someone from the family has come, and I told the villain to come out and look for you."
The boy frowned, and then let go: "Then go back quickly."
The young man hurriedly led the way, walked through several stone roads, and came to a big house.The young man followed the servant into the door, and there was already a guest sitting in the hall. He was a middle-aged man in a long gown, his eyes were shining brightly, and his temples were raised high, he seemed to be an acquired master.
The young man paused, and hurried in the next moment: "I heard that there are guests, and I am really disappointed."
The middle-aged man's name is Xu Cheng, and he is a capable steward of the branch family. He is very reluctant to be sent by the master of the branch family to welcome the young master this time.
This is not a good trip.
Where is Xujia Village?For a big family like the Xu family, not to mention the main family, even the separated family is one of the best in a city like Fenglin.And this Xujia Village can be regarded as a village with a family separated in a small place, and the people sent here have passed through the years, but there are still a few people.
But any young master who is somewhat favored is a bastard, and it is rare to be sent here.What's more, the origin of this young master is really hard to say, he is actually not the son of the current branch master, but the former master - the only son of the current master's sick elder brother.Originally the identity of the son-in-law, but because of the death of the former master, he became in an embarrassing situation.Not long after that, he was simply sent to this Xujia Village. In name, he was given the whole Zhuangzi. In fact, it was nothing more than worrying about food and clothing, and he might not really get the mastery of Xujia Village.
If he is more aggressive, he will be able to control the people in the village. Although he will not be very promising, he can still be a bully at any rate.But this young master is soft-tempered, he neither blames his servants nor has a temper.As time went by, thanks to the strict rules of Xu's family, although the servants looked decent in their work, they actually didn't think highly of him in their hearts.
Xu Cheng's visit this time was naturally for a major event.Otherwise, how could he, an eighth-level Acquired warrior and one of the few in the Acquired Realm, come to such a place full of bumpkins!
But after all there is a difference between master and servant, Xu Chengshen is highly valued by the master of the family, but he is a warrior born in the family, he can shock people because of the power of the warrior, but he must not forget the basic rules.The master is the master, and the servant is the servant, even for those who have been forgotten and neglected like this young master Xu Ziqing, Xu Cheng must maintain a minimum of courtesy.
He just stood up, without saluting due to his status as an eighth-level martial artist, and slightly nodded: "Young master, Xu Cheng was ordered by the branch master to welcome you back."
Xu Ziqing smiled: "I don't know why uncle called me back?"
Xu Cheng said: "The young master is already thirteen years old this year. Regardless of the blood of the direct line of my Xu family, once they reach this age, they will be sent to the clan to test their spiritual roots. Since the young master is a descendant of the direct line, it is no exception."
Xu Ziqing lowered his eyes. He naturally didn't want to leave Xujiacun, but his arms couldn't twist his thighs, so he had to come, so he readily agreed, "When will we leave?"
Xu Cheng saw that the young master was not arrogant and self-indulgent, and he behaved generously, so he was a little more appreciative: "If the young master doesn't mind, the sooner the better. Why don't you follow me tomorrow morning."
Xu Ziqing nodded: "I will follow what you say."
That night Xu Ziqing tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
He was not originally from this world, but the youngest son of a family in a world completely different from this one.He has been loved and grown up since he was a child, but unfortunately his health is not good. After living for 18 years, he can only wander around the hospital bed and the window. Even if he wants to take a few steps in the garden downstairs to enjoy the flowers, it is rare.
The power system of that world is also very different from this world. People's physical fitness is naturally good, but they rely more on something called "technology".With this technology as a foundation, human beings have traveled back and forth in the universe several times, but their lifespan is short, at most they can't live to be more than two hundred years old.
In this world, people absorb the aura of heaven and earth and absorb the power to refine their bodies.Or if you don't have spiritual roots, at most you can achieve the body of a warrior, enter the Tao with martial arts, and reach the innate talent of martial arts is the head.Or they have spiritual roots and are expected to be immortal, but they are different from warriors. As long as they can really absorb spiritual energy into the dantian, they are no longer ordinary people.
Xu Ziqing was reincarnated into his mother's womb. He only knew that she should be a beautiful woman, but he had never seen her since he was born.His father was a gentle and refined man, but unfortunately his health was not good, and before Xu Ziqing could speak, he died.His father was clearly the eldest son, and had inherited the branch family for a few years, but once he died, the branch family fell into the hands of his direct younger brother.
His uncle's name is Xu Mengqian. He is thoughtful and not a bad person.But since the main wife gave birth to a son, how could he let the eldest grandson stay?Xu Ziqing had no choice but to be raised.If he hadn't drank that bowl of Mengpo soup in his previous life, he might have been made a dandy by those around him, and his life would have been ruined.
Xu Ziqing himself doesn't have any big ambitions. In his previous life, he was bedridden with illness, but in this life he is already counting on good luck to have a healthy body.Gradually growing up, I fell in love with the beautiful scenery of the mountains, which was hard to see in my previous life. I longed to stay in Xujia Village for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect to come out.Now he only wishes to find out that there is no spiritual root growing in his head, otherwise he will have to stay in the Zong family, and it will be hard to say how he will live in the future.
The next day, a carriage staggered out of Xujia Village.Because Xu Ziqing had never learned martial arts, and also rarely worked, his physical fitness was not much better.Xu Cheng had expected this. When he came, he rushed on the road with the strength of an eighth-level warrior, but when he left, he got such a carriage.He drove freely in front and let Xu Ziqing fall asleep in the car.The two also traveled day and night, eating dry food and drinking stream water, Xu Cheng was full of energy, and the horse pulling the cart was not an ordinary horse, so he didn't feel tired, but Xu Ziqing was sleepy, and when he woke up, he just watched the scenery from the car window .I don't feel bad at all.
Three days later, they arrived at Fenglin City, where the Xu family branch was located.
The carriage didn't stop on the road and went straight to Naxu's mansion.It is the Shenzhai courtyard, with many houses densely packed in layers, and there are two stone lions at the entrance of the house, which were carved by some skilled craftsman.Xu Cheng jumped out of the car, buckled twice on the vermilion gate, and a young man opened the gate.
Only Xu Cheng said: "Master Xu Ziqing is back, hurry up and help him get out of the car!"
After he yelled, two maidservants quickly walked out of the door, opened the curtain in front of the carriage, stretched their arms and bowed their heads, and went to help the master and young master get off the carriage.
The last arm rested on the maidservant's wrist, the maidservant couldn't help but raised her head, and saw a smiling face, although there was still childishness, there was a handsome and gentle look between her brows and eyes, she couldn't help but blushed slightly, nana, speechless , just help the person down quickly.
Xu Ziqing got out of the car, said "Excuse me", then let go and stood still.Xu Cheng was a little anxious, and hurriedly called the young master a few times before Xu Ziqing hurriedly followed and entered the main house together.
Someone inside had reported to the branch master that Xu Mengqian came out to meet Xu Ziqing and exchanged some pleasantries. Xu Ziqing also called "uncle" to answer, and then he was taken back to his room by his servants.I just heard that the people have already assembled, and they only need to rest for a whole day, and it is time to go on the road and go to the Zong family.
