One, the merits of the ancestors
"Jiji..."
The birds' chirping in the early morning seemed to break the silence of the forest, and two grandparents in the morning dew appeared on the winding mountain road.
The elderly man was thin and half old farm clothes, but he was energetic and steady, but his figure was hunched. On his left was a child who was seven or eight years old who followed him quickly with his lips pursed, staring at him with his small eyes.
Maybe the forest was too quiet, and the little boy couldn't help but find some questions: "Grandpa, how old are you?"
The old man was angry and smiled, his wrinkled face showed some kindness, and said, "I shouldn't say that you are old, you should say that you live a long life, and you shouldn't say that you are too old."
The child raised his head and looked at his grandfather's goatee beard. Gui Bugui Geng didn't listen, but he just felt that his grandfather's beard was very fun to move.
"Grandpa is six in eighty,"
The old man did not take into account the children's thoughts and said to himself: "Since the ancestors of the Qi family moved here and planted slashes and fire, there have been more than 20 generations of people now."
Standing in the valley, the old man pointed his hand and said to the child, "Did you see the surrounding mountains? They are all places where our family works. Your ancestors once practiced in the Immortal Sect, and after returning home, they turned the mountains into gold. Some of the spiritual trees we harvest now were cultivated and developed by your ancestors. And not only here, but within a radius of hundreds of miles, the immortal spiritual trees are also more easily discovered than other places."
"Due to the rules of the sect, our ancestors did not pass on the mental method of the immortal sect, but working here often can help us live longer and prolong our lives. It is all the merits of your ancestors."
The old man said, but his face was full of piety. "The "Qimin Yaoshu" handed down from our ancestors talks about collecting and planting, but it contains the use of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of earth, and the essence of water. We collect spiritual seeds and plant spiritual trees. As long as we follow them, we can get better materials. Therefore, the immortal sect thousands of miles away are very fond of us. As long as you have the ability, you can go to the immortal sect to practice."
"Oh." The child seemed to understand the words of grandpa, but he only felt that his ancestors were very outstanding.
"Hmph, why are ancestors not ancestors? He was not with me at the beginning? Qi? Your surname is Qi? His secular family is not Jia? Hey, what are your name Qi?"
"ah?"
Suddenly I heard someone talking, and the child was shocked. When I looked around, I found no one except my grandfather.
"Grandpa, grandpa, someone is talking to me."
"say?"
The old man wondered and looked around and there was nothing. "Okay, good grandson, go to the mountains with grandpa to collect herbs, and grandpa also tells you how to distinguish spiritual creatures. Otherwise, we will be punished if we don't pay enough taxes."
"Little guy, what are you calling Qi? Talk to me, I'm so bored..."
"Grandpa really has someone talking to me."
The child looked nervous and grabbed the corner of his grandfather's clothes, "I'm really talking."
“Where will there be someone,”
Grandpa looked around. In addition to the quiet forest, it was also the quiet forest. "Okay, stop talking nonsense. Grandpa taught you how to distinguish spiritual wood. Also, there are some methods for strengthening the body in the family. When you are older, you have to learn to practice."
As I was talking slowly, my grandfather left the valley with his children.
Jinyilong Mountain is located in the northern part of Jizhou. According to legend, hundreds of years ago, people who have attained enlightenment gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nurture a part of the water and soil, so spiritual medicines emerged here one after another.
The Gongshu Sect of the State of Qi County, the Mo Sect of Song State attaches great importance to wood-type spiritual objects. Every year, people travel thousands of miles to find and acquire it.
People here also enjoy this. Zhengting also supports this, and this place has formed a small trading market. Zhengting also collects a lot of taxes every year.
The Qi family is also one of many families here. Every year, the Qi family goes deep into the mountains to find herbs and spiritual creatures. Moreover, the family’s ancestral secret technique Qi people’s key skills are recorded. It also records how to plant and cultivate spiritual creatures.
The Qi family has been divided into branches and leaves for hundreds of years. The magic left by the ancestors of the Qi family did not increase with time. On the contrary, the Qi family only ate the mountains and did not carry forward the magic left by him. It was just that the books recorded the ability to increase the recognition of spiritual objects. This is also the heart disease of the Qi family today. After such decline, they may not be just unknown.
Therefore, the old man is very strict with his children and grandchildren, and he has tried his best to send his children and grandchildren to the immortal gate to learn Taoism.
Perhaps God did not favor the family, so the best thing was to stay in the inner door to do some chores. And his father, the young grandson, was even more unbearable to the pressure to run away for many years. With faint memories, the old man led his children out of the mountains and back to the village beside the mountains.
"Father."
When the stone house approached, a woman came out, "We can do the things you are old and crossing mountains and ridges. Why did you bring Yubai into the mountains?"
As he said that, he took the herbs in the old man's hand and quickly let the old man sit down. The child named Yubai called his mother and walked silently to a corner of the courtyard and wrote a thousand-character text on the ground.
His name is Yubai, and his father left him this name and disappeared after he left him. He was raised by his mother since he was a child, and whenever he asked about his father, he was scolded by his mother.
So whenever the children in the village play happily and pounce on their parents' arms, they themselves lick themselves lonely like a wounded puppy. And these are just buried in his heart, and only when they see the children pounce on their parents will they reveal a trace.
Whenever he plays with his children, he plays heartlessly. However, in the private school where he teaches his teacher in the village, he is smarter than ordinary children. He has already memorized the thousand-character texts he teaches for the past two years. When he is alone, he is always dull and dazed.
My father was no longer at home when he had almost no memory. It seemed to be a very dry, cold and bright night, and it seemed to be lightning and thunder that night.
At that time, I was hugged by my mother, and my mother hugged me tightly, not knowing whether I was afraid of lightning or something. When I grew up, I always asked about my father being scolded by my mother, so my father in my memory was just a dark and tiny back in the night.
Yubai matured earlier than children of the same age, and was well-behaved and sensible.
My mother works alone at home, and my mother works alone at home. She also takes time to work as a handyman in a wealthy family. She is still old and deteriorating.
The poor children have become a family and have to work with them early. Although they are thin, they are somewhat ruthless.
