Chapter 1: The beginning of mortals - there must be some pursuit in traversing
It's really hot in July. Although Shangxi State is in the north, the ground is still burning under the scorching sun. Even the sound of summer insects is not loud. It must be that they have lost their vitality because of the intense heat wave.
In a small town in the east of Shangxi State, a six-year-old boy, carved with powder and jade, was lying listlessly under the shade of a tree, which was the coolest place he could find.
"I'll go. It's too hot. Why is there no air conditioner? It's good to have an electric fan!" The child said to himself in a voice and language that others could not understand.
"Where is the cool bean soup, Xiaohua? Why is it not ready yet? Hurry to get it! Where do you put the fan?" The child was shouting, and saw a little girl about eleven or twelve years old running from the front yard.
"Come, come, where's the fan on me? I'll fan it for you right away!" Xiaohua took cold bean soup and walked back quickly.
"Come on, let me have a drink!" "Gudong Gudong!".
The boy's name is Liu Xuan. He came to Shangxi with his uncle five years ago.
When passing this town, Liu Xuan suddenly fell ill and died. His uncle was afraid that Liu Xuan would get sick again if he continued his journey. In order to save Liu Xuan's life, he bought a house in this town, bought land and settled down.
In fact, this is not the case. When you see the words "air conditioning fan", you also understand that Liu Xuan is a traveler.
Indeed, Liu Xuan is actually a good young man in the 21st century.
Liu Xuan's real name is Liu Yixuan. After graduating from college, he majored at home. Perseverance and hard work to stay up late to study and prepare for the public exam.
After four years of hard work, he achieved his wish and became a community officer. Less than two years after joining the work, he was sent to the village to cooperate with the First Secretary in the new rural construction.
After three years of hard work, the first secretary was promoted to a higher position in the evaluation and ushered in a new life. The superior decided to let him take the place of the first secretary temporarily, which made him very happy. At the age of thirty, he had to be proud.
So he took out the money he had saved for a long time, bought a tram, and wanted to go home, which also made his parents who often nagged him happy. Who would have thought that happiness begets sorrow? There was a traffic accident and I hung up.
Then his consciousness became confused for a while, and when he opened his eyes again, he became a child just one year old. As a senior bookworm at a certain point, I immediately realized that I had passed through.
Then there was the operation of a traditional traveler: confusion - confusion - chagrin - hysteria - calm - summon the golden finger - disappointment - surrender. Fortunately, he is only a child just one year old, and his performance is considered as normal crying after illness.
Liu Yixuan accepted.
His earthly name is Liu Xuan! It is said that his name was given by a respected elder.
Liu -- It means great talent, bold strategy, unyielding power, loyalty, filial piety, fame, etc. But this word was not chosen by him, it was given by his ancestors, and it was also his surname in previous generations.
Xuan -- lofty, extraordinary, leisurely, knowledgeable, inheriting family business, pursuing excellence and other beautiful meanings. It is conceivable that the named elder also has high expectations of him, just like his grandfather in his previous life.
In order not to be noticed by others, Liu Xuan pretended to be crazy and foolish, and then he became an ancient master for five years in a muddle headed way, and by the way, he also filled his acting skills.
Liu Yixuan, as a social good young man, certainly has his own ideal. Kaogong! No, it should be called imperial examination now! So he began to learn the knowledge of the world when he was four years old. Relying on a rich uncle, he invited three gentlemen successively, but within a year, all three gentlemen left, leaving three words:
A: "This son was born knowing that there is no way to teach him. He is also a prodigy!"
B: "Lin Er never forgets what he has seen. He draws inferences from one instance and turns it into a poem in five steps
C: "This child must not be in the pool. I will ride the wind and turn into a dragon someday. I can't do it!"
So Liu Xuan was depressed. He was already very uncouth, okay? This is known as the once in a thousand year prodigy?
However, during his study, Liu Xuan found a very serious thing. It seemed that he did not travel through any historical era or parallel time and space, but rather a fairy world.
Because when he read a poetry anthology, he found the words of Caixia Mountain in the State of Yue, and found that there were many words and sentences describing admiring immortals in the poetry.
So he was not interested in ordinary books. He looked everywhere for ancient books, lonely books, unofficial histories, travel notes, etc. After comparing many geography and history books, he confirmed that he had crossed the mortal world. Yes, it is the mortal world that forgets big capitals.
Knowing that it was a world of cultivating immortals, Liu Xuan changed his goal of life from "being a civil servant" to "I want to live forever". Hey, hey, hey, this seems to be the ultimate life goal of all modern people after passing through!
When he told his uncle about this discovery and his idea of going to cultivate immortals, his uncle said nothing but shook his head. Then Zheng Erzhong gave him an ancient book, "Five Elements Tips", and told Liu Xuan that it was a skill of cultivating immortals, left by Liu Xuan's parents, so he said nothing more.
"Uncle is really strange, and this kung fu is also very strange. How can a mortal have the kung fu of cultivating immortals? And he has never said anything about my parents before, and he always prevaricates when asking him. This is the first time he took the initiative to talk about parents." Lying on the bamboo couch, Liu Xuanru was thinking about things. "No matter, since you have got the skill of cultivating immortals, it's unreasonable to watch. Let's start cultivating tonight!"
During the dinner, Liu Xuan found an opportunity to ask his uncle about his parents again.
"Uncle, Xuan'er has something to hide in his heart. Seeing that he is about to start training, he finally feels uncomfortable and wants to talk to Uncle!"
"Do not eat or sleep! After the meal, study." Liu Huchen looked at Liu Xuan and said quietly, very dignified.
"Uncle Xie!"
……
In the study, Liu Xuan kneels in front of the tea table, opposite Liu Huchen is making tea in an orderly manner, slowly and elegantly. Soon, a small cup of tea was pushed in front of Liu Xuan.
"Go ahead! I will tell you what you want to ask today."
Liu Xuan picked up the tea cup and took a small sip. "Uncle also asked clearly. What else could I want to ask? Of course, it's my parents' business. You always said that I didn't understand when I was young, and you always put me off. You should tell me something this time!"
Of course, Liu Huchen knew what Liu Xuan wanted to know, but he really could not say why.
"All right! I will tell you today!"
Liu Huchen took a sip of tea, which seemed to be a very important decision. After putting down the tea cup, he said:
"I won't tell you about your parents because I promised your parents that I would not tell you in my lifetime. But I can tell you that your parents are really dead. Before they died, they entrusted you to me to protect your safety and stay away from home."
Liu Huchen paused and continued: "I can give you a promise. If one day you can protect yourself, I will tell you everything."
Liu Xuan's eyes turned, and he immediately became a master. He suddenly stood up, and his face was very surprised and angry: "So I am in a deep blood feud? And it is still quite dangerous? Did my parents die to protect me?"
Liu Huchen, who raised Liu Xuan, was not surprised to see Liu Xuan like this. Liu Xuan has been smart since childhood and knows everything at a glance. It's not surprising that he can think of this through his own words.
"Sit down! That's the end of the topic. We are far away from our enemies. They may not find us here."
Liu Xuan slightly adjusted his expression and movement, and slowly sat down.
"Then, uncle, what's the matter with the Five Elements Essentials?"
"This book was handed to me by your father at the beginning, and I didn't say much about it. I also found out later that it was an immortal's cultivation skill. As for the rest, you can explore it yourself!"
"Uncle, I read a lot of unofficial histories and ancient books. I remember that a book mentioned that there must be spiritual roots to become an immortal. Do I have spiritual roots?"
"I don't know about that. You can try it yourself. Don't you know it after you try?"
"Uncle, there is another thing. You tell me the truth only when you say I can protect myself. What conditions must be met before I can protect myself?"
"Ho ho, if you become a fairy, you should count it!"
Liu Xuan felt that his uncle was prevaricating with him again. He turned his eyes, picked up the tea cup, drank it dry, stood up, and turned to leave the study. At the last moment of leaving, Liu Xuan asked another question: "Uncle, let me ask you the last question. Are you a fairy?"
Liu Huchen was obviously stunned. Although Liu Xuan didn't look back, he could feel it.
"Ha ha ha! Of course not! Ha ha ha!" Liu Huchen's face twitched a little, but he controlled himself.
"All right! That nephew won't bother you. Please have a rest!"
Liu Xuan turned and bowed to Liu Huchen, then withdrew.
"My uncle definitely has a problem. He should be an immortal, and so are my parents! He can't pretend to be himself. Although he has married several concubines in recent years, he never let the concubines who serve the dormitory stay overnight! Only he and I can live in the backyard all the time. In addition, no one has had a son and a half daughters for five years! The biggest problem is, is he really my uncle? ”
After putting down all these confused thoughts, Liu Xuan entered his room. Today he will begin his practice life.
Liu Xuan didn't know that this time, he practiced alone with the Five Elements under no guidance, which not only changed his talent for cultivating immortals, but also changed the way his parents arranged for him in this life.
