Chapter 291 Xiao Shuying’s growth path (two-in-one)
2024-05-15
"Brother, Ying'er wants to become an immortal, well, why do you think it is?
Because Ying'er doesn't want to be a little beggar like before, not having enough to eat or sleep every day..."
"Brother, Ying'er heard that immortals have great magical powers and can have whatever they want. If I can become an immortal, I won't have to worry about having no money to buy gifts for my brother on his birthday in the future..."
"Don't worry, brother, Ying'er will definitely come down from the mountain and come back to visit you from time to time."
"Brother, I'm back to see you again. Please promise Ying'er that no matter what happens in the future, you will never leave Ying'er, okay?"
"Brother... we want to be together forever!"
"Brother, where have you been? Why can't Ying'er find you no matter how hard I look for you? Brother, please don't abandon Ying'er, okay?"
Click, click, click...
Sounds like movie clips sounded intermittently...
Who is talking? The voice is so familiar!
Although Linyi City is a mortal city, it is not closed off. Occasionally, people will pass by this city to rest. The immortal masters who came down from the mountains and most of the mortals in the city also know that the immortal masters on the mountains have great supernatural powers.
Looking away, Han Mo discovered that a middle-aged woman had stood beside him for some time, and she looked familiar.
It was as if his memory was forcibly sealed by this strange gray mist, making him temporarily forget that he was making a breakthrough at this moment, or even overcoming the "inner demon tribulation".
"you are?"
Then a new one, no, to be precise, it should be a familiar memory from the past, a familiar city, gradually emerged in my mind.
Linyi City?
Wait, isn't this the mortal town I stayed in before when I was experiencing the world of mortals?
This city does not belong to the Zhou Dynasty's sphere of influence, but to a mortal country that has never been heard of - Qi State.
"Boss Han, why did you fall asleep in the store in broad daylight? Did you not sleep well last night?"
When the other party said this, Han Mo finally remembered that there was indeed a cloth shop next door to the shop he bought, and the proprietress of that cloth shop was indeed named Wang.
Qingzhuxuan? Boss Han? Fell asleep?
Han Mo was stunned for a moment, and then quickly remembered the confused "memory" from before.
Today, it is said that several immortal masters came down from the mountain and came to Yicheng to recruit disciples.
"Oh, it's Xiao Shuying. You'll know when we get to the county government office. Let's leave quickly!"
Why did the other party come to the door today and act so familiar?
"Oh, now is not the time to talk about this. Boss Han, go get some water and wash your face. Forget it, stop washing. I will take you to the county government office. There is a big happy event happening in your family!"
Just when Han Mo looked around and had such a doubt in his mind, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder:
"You are Boss Han of Qingzhuxuan, are you sleepy?"
As the gray fog became thicker and thicker, everything around him completely disappeared, and even Han Mo's consciousness gradually became blurred...
Where is this place? Does it look familiar?
By the way, I am Han Mo. In order to practice a skill, I now hide in the mortal world and train my mind.
Hmm... I feel so dizzy!
"Boss Han, Boss Han, what a great event, what a great event!"
A gray mist obscured everything. In the blink of an eye, the cave, stone bed, tables and chairs where Han Mo was retreating gradually faded, and finally disappeared into the darkness.
"Um...who is it? What's the happy event? My head hurts so much. Who am I? What's going on?"
"Oh, stop looking at the store. How much money can you make from this shabby store?
That girl of yours has become very successful now. If you don't want any gold or silver in the future, what kind of store do you need to visit? "
When Han Mo regained consciousness again, the surrounding gray fog had dissipated, and what he saw was an unusually familiar shop.
It turned out to be the little girl he picked up. No, she should be called "Han Shuying" now. This was the name he gave her.
"Wait... Aunt Wang... what's the matter... Hey, I'm still looking at the store..."
Just because he was in this gray mist, the memory of him breaking through the golden elixir suddenly began to fade for some reason, and it gradually became difficult to even remember who he was.
This is a small shop with no decoration, but it is very neatly organized. There are many shelves with a lot of groceries on them, like a grocery store.
Donglaizhou, Linyi City.
But he didn't remember who this acquaintance was at all?
Thinking of this, Han Mo nodded slightly, then looked at the woman in front of him and said doubtfully:
However, before he could ask what Aunt Wang wanted to do with him, the other party suddenly grabbed his arm, looking extremely eager, but mixed with a bit of flattery, and pulled him out of the door. Walk.
No one knows where it is, and no one knows what year it is. It seems like a mirage that only exists in dreams.
Only after arriving at the county government office did he know what had happened.
"My girl? Is she going to be a successful person?"
"I am Aunt Wang, the cloth seller next door to your shop. Look at you, you are really sleepy."
……
Han Shuying is about to join the Immortal Sect.
However, if I remember correctly, the Aunt Wang next door was a sharp and mean woman. I didn't like her personality and rarely interacted with her on weekdays.
"It turns out to be Aunt Wang..."
Why do you call me brother?
Wait a minute, where is this place and who am I?
As a result, Han Mo was half pushed and half dragged to the county government office by Aunt Wang next door.
In a daze, he seemed to hear the voice of someone he knew.
Suddenly, the entire Linyi City was in a sensation.
The so-called difference between immortals and mortals, and the immortal master voluntarily condescending to come down the mountain to accept disciples, is simply unimaginable for ordinary mortals.
The county magistrate immediately blocked the entire alley of the county government office, drove away irrelevant people, and even stood at the entrance of the alley waiting for the arrival of the immortal master.
Later, at the request of the Immortal Master, all the boys and girls of the school age under the age of fifteen in Linyi City were brought into the county government office one after another to accept the Immortal Master's test.
Those who pass can be taken to the mountains by immortal masters to practice, which is a dream for ordinary people in Linyi City.
After all, which mortal doesn’t dream of becoming an immortal master who can call upon the wind and rain, and turn stones into gold?
Therefore, the gate of the county government office was almost broken by the surging crowd today.
Of course, it is good for everyone to have a dream of becoming a fairy.
But it is not that easy to cultivate immortality. Only those with spiritual roots will be selected by the immortal master.
In the huge Linyi City, only three boys and girls under the age of fifteen with spiritual roots were selected. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are one in a million.
And it just so happened that Xiao Shuying was one of the three.
For the mortals in Linyi City, of course they know what it means to be chosen by an immortal master?
That is the fate of a carp leaping over the dragon gate and transforming into a dragon when encountering a storm. He is destined to become a transcendent, aloof, immortal being.
Even her relatives will be awed and envied by everyone, which is the so-called "when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven."
Therefore, after learning the news, the county magistrate quickly sent someone to invite Han Mo.
Only Aunt Wang, who I am not very familiar with on weekdays, would take the initiative to visit me and be so enthusiastic and even flattering.
It turns out that all this was because Xiao Shuying was chosen by the immortal master on the mountain.
And this is what she has always wanted.
After all, Han Mo still remembered that Xiao Shuying had discussed his future wishes with him before.
At that time, she said that she wanted to become an immortal so that she would not have to go hungry or worry about having no money to buy gifts for his birthday.
Having said that, Hongchen has been practicing for such a long time and has been with Xiao Shuying for a long time.
Under Han Mo's gentleness, teachings, and care, Xiao Shuying was almost obedient to him and obeyed his words. When she saw an immortal master coming to accept her as his disciple, she did not directly agree, but looked at Han Mo with eyes in her eyes. Revealing inquiry and desire.
The inquiry was out of respect and love for his brother, but the desire came from the heart.
No matter how good and close her relationship with Han Mo is, it can't change that she has been a beggar since she was a child. After experiencing the lowest level of society, she has an urgent desire to cross classes and jump across environments.
Han Mo felt vaguely familiar with this, as if he had experienced this scene before. At that time, he also faced the same longing eyes of Xiao Shuying, expecting him to make a decision.
This is a decision and a choice.
And his choice will determine Xiao Shuying's future path.
However, this sense of familiarity only lasted for a short moment, and a gray fog suddenly surged in his mind, which quickly faded away.
When he came back to his senses, Han Mo no longer had that strange feeling and just thought it was an illusion.
So he thought for a moment, then quickly touched Xiao Shuying's head and said:
"You have grown up. You don't have to ask your brother about everything. Just do what you think about these things."
Han Mo was very open-minded.
Although he adopted Xiao Shuying, it was purely out of boredom in the worldly experience and some interest in "girl development" in his previous life.
But he didn't intend to interfere too much with Xiao Shuying's personal choices.
Besides, since it is "girl training", he naturally wants to cultivate Xiao Shuying into a talented person who is excellent in all aspects.
In this world of cultivating immortals, only those who cultivate immortals can be called outstanding. In this case, he naturally supports it.
In this way, after Han Mo made the first and the same choice, Han Shuying successfully entered the immortal gate and embarked on the path of cultivating immortality as he wished.
Because of this, the gray fog that shrouded his mind gradually faded away.
However, Han Mo did not notice these abnormalities.
