Chapter 1 Is there really a fairy in this world?
"Who else?"
A man in a white brocade robe asked with a smile.
The man has a thick face, two silkworm eyebrows lying horizontally, a pair of round eyes are as warm as jade, his nose is high and straight, his thin lips are closed, and his long black hair is scattered on his shoulders. The white brocade robe flutters in the wind, which is indescribably free and handsome.
His age gives people a rather vague feeling. At first, he looks like a young man just over 20 years old, but when he looks closely, it reveals the maturity and worldly wisdom of middle-aged people in his early 30s. People with a little experience will find that the calm and steady temperament of this brocade man gives people a sense of security that Mount Tai has collapsed in front without changing his face.
In front of this man sat an old man with a white beard. The deep traces left by the years on his body made his back no longer straight, his voice no longer heavy, his muscles no longer young, and even his face and hands were covered with dense wrinkles like dried orange peel. The vicissitudes of the years were perfectly interpreted in him, but his eyes became brighter and brighter with age.
The man in brocade asked was him.
"Xianchang, the little old man is old and has a bad memory. Please allow the little old man to think about it carefully." A trace of respect flashed in the old man's bright eyes, arched his hand to the man in brocade robe and said slowly.
The man in brocade robe turned his head and looked at the sky outside the window, smiled and said to the old man, "Old man, take your time, it's not too late."
"Thank you, Xianchang." The old man arched his hand and took a deep breath. The wrinkles on his face slowly loosened, and his eyes slowly lowered. He stared at the slate under his feet, but his mind had spread everywhere.
I was born in Yuhang Town. It has been 48 years since I was elected as the mayor of the town at the age of 32. Now, I am 80 years old, and I should be regarded as a person in this mortal world.
However, I am far from comparable to the immortal in front of me.
I heard that although many immortals of Xuantianzong are hundreds of years old, they still look like young people. They not only have magical powers, but also have a face that will never grow old. Although the brocade-robed fairy in front of him looks young, his temperament is calm and steady. I'm afraid his age is not under him.
I am getting old, and this immortal is still young, and he will continue to be young in the future.
I really envy these immortals!
But I'm envious, and I also know that I'm not that material.
However, although I don't have the qualification to cultivate immortals, and no one in Yuhang Town has the qualification to cultivate immortals for hundreds of years, the immortals of Xuantianzong will come to Yuhang Town every 20 years. Over time, there will always be.
Twenty years ago, another immortal came. At that time, no one in Yuhang Town was selected. Now 20 years later, the children have grown up, and their children have reached the age of twelve or three. Unfortunately, no one has been selected.
Is it true that no one in Yuhang Town is blessed to become an immortal?
That's all. If you don't have it, you won't have it. If you don't have it now, it doesn't mean you won't have it in the future. After being sent to the immortal, I still go to a pub in the east of the town to have a small bar. If you are old and don't drink, you won't have much time to drink.
Is there a pub? Isn't there a ten-year-old doll named Linshang in Lin Datou's family? Why didn't he come?
Well... By the way, the doll had a serious illness six months ago, and then it was often full of nonsense. It is said that he is better now. Why didn't he come? Although there is something wrong with my head, I'm finally from Yuhang Town.
Well, even if he is the only one, he doesn't have any hope anyway.
Let the next mayor be annoyed by such a thing.
Thinking about it, the old man's eyes lit up and slowly raised his head. He looked at the man in the brocade robe, but he did not dare to look at his face and said slowly, "Xianchang, the little old man thought of it. There is a tavern in the east of the town. Lin Datou, the owner of the tavern, has a teenage doll. Somehow, he didn't come here today.
"Is there a pub?" The man in brocade robe was stunned for a moment, and his calm eyes fluctuated slightly.
"...Well, the name of that pub is called a pub." The old man smiled and replied quickly.
"Well, this name... is also interesting." The man in brocade nodded, and his eyes returned to a calm state. "If he is the only one, I will go straight to his house."
"If you can't use immortals, how dare you grow up." The old man trembled all over, stood up suddenly, turned his head and shouted outside the door, "Wang, go and call the doll named Linshang in Zhendonglin's big head family, and move it's easy!"
"All's good." There was no one outside the door, but he heard a heavy voice, and then a burst of rapid footsteps gradually faded away.
"Wait a moment, and the doll named Linshang will come right away." The old man squeezed out a trembling smile on his wrinkled face.
"No hurry, no hurry, sit down and wait." The man in brocade robe smiled and smiled like a spring breeze. The old man felt that his heart was smooth and couldn't help sitting back.
After a while, about a cup of tea, I heard a very light but rapid footsteps approaching quickly. The old man's eyes lit up, his heart came, and his eyes turned to the door. At this time, the man in brocade also turned his head to look at the door.
Hearing that the footsteps were getting closer and closer, they soon arrived at the door. Their eyes lit up at the same time, and they saw a child with big eyes and a little thinness running in.
Although the child is thin and weak, he is also beautiful. It can even be said that he is a little handsome, especially his big bright eyes, black and shiny, blinking, which makes people can't help but want to hold him in his arms and caress.
However, to their surprise, the child looked extremely calm, not like a teenager, but like a young man in his twenties who has experienced many things.
After seeing the two, he saluted without saying a word, but stared at the man in the brocade with dark and shiny eyes, with a deep smile that was extremely different from his age.
When the old man looked at the child's eyes, he shouted in his heart that he was going to suffer. The brain of the Lin doll became more and more abnormal. How could he look at the immortal with that kind of eyes? If I angered the immortals, wouldn't Yuhang Town have no hope of a person cultivating immortals in the future?
stared at the child, and the old man stood up at a speed that did not match his age. He arched his hand to the man in brocade robe and said, "Xianchang, this doll is the son of Lin Datou in that pub, Linshang. His head is a little bit like that, neither big or small. Please think of his youth and ignorance. Don't blame him.
The man in brocade robe smiled at the old man, waved his hand and said, "The old man does not need to be polite. This child is different and really interesting."
The two were polite, and no one saw the child named Linshang curled his lips and rolled his eyes at them quickly. When they turned their heads, Linshang had already returned to his appearance and still looked at the man in brocade robe calmly, but added a little disdain to the deep smile in his original eyes.
"The doll of the Lin family, this is the immortal of Xuantianzong. Why don't you give a big gift quickly?" The old man blew his beard and stared loudly.
"Old man, don't be polite." The man in brocade robe stopped the old man with a smile, took out a transparent ball the size of a fist from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Shang, "Child, take this spiritual bead, close your eyes, concentrate, and think about this spiritual pearl."
There seemed to be an addictive magic in the man's words. Linshang was stunned for a moment, took the spiritual source bead, closed his eyes obediently, and focused on the spiritual source bead in his hand.
Then, under the surprised gaze of the man in brocade robe and the old man, the spiritual beads in Linshang's hand instantly emitted a pale light, which was not very conspicuous under the sunlight, but made the white-haired old man's wrinkled eyes overflow with a few drops of turbid tears.
The corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and he muttered, "It's shining, finally shining... I, Yuhangzhen, can finally have a fairy..."
The man in brocade robe smiled, turned his eyes to Linshang's closed eyes and said softly, "Linshang, you can open your eyes now and give me the spiritual source beads."
As soon as the words fell, Linshang opened his eyes and looked at the light white light beads in his hand, and his eyes were full of unbelievable light. He was stunned and stood still. He didn't pay attention to the old tearful old man in front of him, let alone return the spiritual beads in his hand to the man in the brocade robe.
The man in the brocade robe grinned, but he didn't care. His fingers moved gently, and the pale light on the spiritual source beads in Linshang's hand immediately dissipated and became the original colorless transparency. Then it turned into a white light and flew back to the sleeve of the man in the brocade robe.
When Linshang saw this, his big eyes were also a little widened, and the huge waves turned up in his heart, and the past turned up like a tide in his mind.
I was originally a white-collar worker in China on the earth in the 21st century and lost consciousness in a car accident. I don't know how long it took, my consciousness slowly woke up, and I only felt hot all over. I put the Buddha in a steamer, and my eyes were so heavy that I was pressed by a big mountain. I couldn't open it. I was so thirsty, but I couldn't speak. I heard people shouting in my ears, but I didn't know what they were talking about. Then his consciousness sank and he fell into a coma again.
When I woke up again, I suddenly had a lot of things in my head. My body was no longer hot, and my eyes could open weakly. However, it was not an angel in white that came into her eyes, but a haggard but charming middle-aged woman. Next to her stood a middle-aged man with bloodshot eyes and a big head, and the two were eagerly looking at themselves.
Looking at the ancient clothes of the two, although his heart was full of anger, he finally admitted that he had traveled through time and was reborn on Lin Shang, the 12-year-old son of the Lin family.
After a serious illness, the body is weak and it will take a long time to rest. Looking at the "mother" who takes care of her every day and feels the joy and distressed eyes in her eyes, the anger in her heart gradually melts.
If you think about it, living in ancient times without computers and mobile phones is not necessarily a bad thing. In the previous life, my parents have passed away. I have been rolling in the melting pot of that society and have long been tired of the life of intrigue. In this simple and natural ancient times, maybe I can live a happier life. I remember that after I woke up and shouted "mother" for the first time, the haggard woman hugged herself with tears. It felt like being in her mother's arms when she was a child, and a warmth spread all over her body.
After my body gradually recovered, I couldn't help being lonely and wanted to see the world I had just come to. As a result, I heard my parents talk about immortals. As a 16-year orthodox cultural education, I naturally did not believe in these feudal superstitions. When I heard my parents say that soon after, the immortals of Xuantianzong came to the town to receive disciples every 20 years, I was just stunned.
I didn't think there was such a child trafficking gang in ancient times.
However, just now, I touched my hand on the spiritual bead, closed my eyes and focused. I only felt that there seemed to be a small flame in the bead, making me feel so warm. When he opened his eyes, he saw the faint white light emitted from the spiritual source beads, and even saw the man in white brocade robe showing his stunt of taking things from the air.
