Chapter 1: Leave the country

Views:

Tie Zhu sat on the side of the small road in the village, looking at the blue sky, looking in a daze. Tie Zhu was not his real name, but his nickname because of his weak body and his father's fear of not being able to support him since he was a child.

His real name is Wang Lin. Wang's surname is considered to be a common surname in the surrounding villages. His ancestors were carpenters, especially in the county. The Wang family is also quite famous and owns several shops specializing in wood products.

Tie Zhu's father was the second son of the family and could not take over the important tasks of the family. Instead, he left the county town after getting married and settled in the village here.

Because of his exquisite carpentry work, Tie Zhu's family was considered well-off, and he did not worry about food and clothing. Even in the village, he was respected by many people.

Tie Zhu has been extremely smart since he was a child, he likes to read, and has many ideas. He is almost a recognized child prodigy in the village. Every time his father hears praise from others, the wrinkles on his face will open and he will show an open smile.

His mother cared for him even more. It can be said that Tie Zhu has lived in the love of his parents since he was a child. He knows that his parents have high expectations of him. Children from other families have already gone to farm work at his age. , But he is studying at home.

When he reads more books, his ideas naturally follow. He is full of yearning for the world outside the mountain village. Looking up at the end of the path, Tie Zhu sighed, closed the book in his hand, got up and walked home.

Father sitting in the yard, holding a pipe in his hand, and after taking a deep breath, he said to Tie Zhu who opened the door and said: "Tie Zhu, how is your reading?"

Tie Zhu dealt with a few words, his father knocked his pipe and stood up and said, "Tie Zhu, you have to study hard. Next year will be the county exam. If you have any success in the future, it will all depend on this time. Don’t Like me, staying in the village for the rest of my life, alas."

"Okay, you talk about it every day, asking me to say that our family Tie Zhu will definitely be admitted." Tie Zhu's mother, carrying the food on the table in the courtyard, greeted the two of them to come over for dinner.

Tie Zhu uttered, and after sitting down, he took a few mouthfuls indiscriminately. The mother looked at her son lovingly, and pinched a few pieces of meat to him.

"Father, fourth uncle is coming soon, right?" Tie Zhu raised his head and said.

"Counting time, it's been almost these few days. Your fourth uncle is more promising than your father. Alas, my child, have you wrapped up the mountain vegetables for the fourth child?" When his father mentioned the fourth child, his face was sighing. color.

The mother nodded and said with emotion: "Tie Zhu, your fourth uncle is a good person. Thanks to his help in the past few years, the wood carvings made by your father can only sell for the price. If you are promising in the future, don't forget to repay your uncle."

As he was talking, suddenly there was the sound of horses outside the door, and then the slamming of the carriage slamming on the ground followed, and a hearty voice sounded outside.

"Second brother, open the door."

Tie Zhu was pleasantly surprised and immediately ran to push the gate of the yard open. He saw a strong middle-aged man standing outside the door with piercing eyes. He smiled when he saw Tie Zhu, touched his head, and said with a smile:" Tie Zhu, I haven't seen it for half a year, and he has grown taller again."

Tie Zhu’s parents quickly stood up, and his father smiled and said, “Fourth old man, I’m about to make an appointment. You are coming soon. Come in, Tie Zhu, don’t go get a stool for your uncle.”

Tie Zhu responded happily, hurried back to the room, took out a bench and placed it by the dining table, wiped it with his sleeve earnestly, looking at the middle-aged man hopefully.

The middle-aged man blinked at him and said jokingly: "Tie Zhu, why are you so diligent this time? I remember when I came last time, you weren't like this."

Tie Zhu's father glared at Tie Zhu, and said with a smile, "This little bastard, just now I was talking about whether you are coming soon."

The middle-aged man saw Tie Zhu's little face blushing, and smiled: "Tie Zhu, your uncle did not forget what he promised you." After speaking, he took out two linear books from his arms and put them on the table.

Tie Zhu cheered excitedly, picked up the book and flipped through it, overjoyed.

Tie Zhu's mother looked at her son kindly, and said to the middle-aged man: "Fourth old man, your brother always talks about you, so let's stay a few more days this time."

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Second Sister-in-law, the family has a lot of things these days. I will rush back tomorrow morning. When this time is over, I will come to see you again." After that, he looked at himself apologetically. elder brother.

Tie Zhu's father sighed and said, "Fourth, don't listen to your sister-in-law. Pack the goods tomorrow. Family matters are the most important thing. The same goes for us to get together again."

The middle-aged man looked at Tie Zhu's father and said, "Second brother, Tie Zhu is fifteen years old, right?"

Tie Zhu's father nodded and said with emotion: "After the Chinese New Year, this little bastard will be sixteen. Alas, more than ten years have passed, so fast." As he said, he looked at his son with a doting look in his eyes.

The middle-aged man groaned a little with a serious expression, and said, "Second brother, second wife, tell you something. The Hengyue faction collects disciples this year. The family has three recommended places, and one is assigned to me."

Tie Zhu’s father was startled, and said, "Hengyue faction? But that Hengyue faction who is all immortals?"

The middle-aged man smiled, nodded and said, "Second brother, that is the fairy sect. Our family is also considered a prominent family nearby, and is eligible for recommendation. As you know, my boy is not good at reading, but he is good at dancing swords and swords. I wonder if fairies are not. The conference accepts my kid, this place is precious. I think Tie Zhu has been smart since he was a child, and he likes to read books, maybe he can do it."

Tie Zhu's mother was very happy, and said hurriedly: "The fourth child, this... this..."

The middle-aged man touched Tie Zhu's head and said, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, I think this will be the case. Let Tie Zhu try it. If it is collected, it will be his blessing."

Tie Zhu looked at his parents and uncle in confusion, he couldn't understand what they were saying, fairy? What is a fairy? Tie Zhu hesitated and asked softly.

The middle-aged man looked serious, looked at Tie Zhu, and said, "Tie Zhu, immortals can fly around in the sky. Every one of them has great magical powers, and it's not something we mortals can think about."

Tie Zhu was ignorant, and he was curious about the fairy.

Tie Zhu’s father got up excitedly and pulled Tie Zhu’s mother to bow to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man quickly helped them up and said sincerely, “Second brother, what are you doing? My mother died early, It’s not that Erniang took care of me when I was young, and I can’t have today. Tie Zhu is my nephew. I should do this."

Tie Zhu’s father shed tears with emotion, patted the middle-aged man heavily, nodded, and then said sharply to Tie Zhu: “Remember, Wang Lin, in the future, no matter what, don’t forget your uncle’s kindness to our family. Otherwise I won't have your son!"

Tie Zhu's heart trembled. Although he was still ignorant of the immortals, he knew from the expressions of his parents that they took the matter extremely seriously, so he knelt in front of the fourth uncle and knocked his head heavily.

The middle-aged man pulled up Tie Zhu and said admiringly: "Good boy, you clean up these few days, I will pick you up at the end of the month!"

In the evening, Tie Zhu went to bed early, and he could still hear the voices of his father and his uncle in the yard. His father was very happy today. He seldom drank, so he had to drink a few glasses with his uncle when he said anything.

"Fairy? What the hell is it?" Tie Zhu was very excited in his heart, and his young mind vaguely knew that this would be an opportunity for himself, an opportunity to go to the outside world!

The next morning, the fourth uncle left, and Tie Zhu’s parents took him to the entrance of the village. On the way back, Tie Zhu clearly saw that his father seemed to be a lot younger all of a sudden, and his eyes were full. Expectations.

This look of expectation is much stronger than when he was asked to go to the county exam before.

There is no secret at all in the small mountain village. Even if a dog gave birth to a few cubs, it can spread throughout the village in an instant. Soon everyone in the village heard the news from Tie Zhu’s mother and came to visit. When I look at Tie Zhu, my eyes are different, there is envy, there is jealousy...

"The Wang family gave birth to a good baby, and he was accepted as a disciple by the Hengyue Sect."

"I've seen Tie Zhu grow up since he was a child. This child was smart when he was young. This time he became a disciple of the Hengyue School. He will definitely have a great future in the future."

"Tie Zhu has the ability. Don't forget our village when you have a future. Come back and take a look."

Such words flooded into Tie Zhu's ears, and gradually said that he had become a Hengyue school disciple. Every time his parents heard it, they couldn't close their mouths with a smile, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be reduced a lot.

Whenever Tie Zhu walked alone in the village, all the villagers who saw him enthusiastically pulled him to ask questions. What's more, they even used Tie Zhu as an example and instructed him in front of his children.

Half a month passed quickly, and the news that Tie Zhu became a disciple of the Hengyue School spread quickly. Villagers from the surrounding towns and villages all came to congratulate him. Their main purpose was to take a look at Tie Zhu.

When everyone came, they would prepare a gift, and Tie Zhu's parents couldn't get rid of it, so they accepted it. However, when these people leave, they will prepare a lot of rewards for them. According to Tie Zhu’s father, the baby in our family will be a superior immortal in the future, and he cannot be allowed to owe so many human debts. All visiting Villagers, let's give him salutes.

At this time, the members of the Wang family also gradually learned that the fourth child had given up his baby's place to Tie Zhu, and one after another came to say hi.

For his family’s clansmen, Tie Zhu’s father attaches great importance to them. Many of these people despised him before, and even forced him out of the family many years ago. Now these people come to his house one by one, making him feel for so many years. The suffocation was swept away.

He discussed with Tie Zhu and his mother, and was ready to entertain him, so he paid a lot of money and asked the teacher in the village to write an invitation and send it to the clan.

The teacher said that he didn't charge anything, but he only asked Tie Zhu to admit that he had been studying here since he was a child. Tie Zhu didn't say anything about it. This is true.

After the invitation was sent, most of the relatives in the Wang clan came to celebrate. Because there were too many people, Tie Zhu's father chose the place of reception in the square in the center of the village and set up hundreds of tables for banquets.

The residents of the village helped to entertain themselves. When they talked with each other, they all praised and praised Tie Zhu.

As for Tie Zhu's father, he took his wife and children to greet him at the entrance of the village personally, introducing him to his relatives one by one.

"This is your third grandfather. When your father left the family, your third grandfather secretly helped a lot. Tie Zhu, you must remember to repay you in the future." Tie Zhu's father supported a gray-haired old man and said to Wang Lin.

Tie Zhu quickly and obediently promised. The old man looked at Tie Zhu and said with emotion: "My second child, time is so fast, your baby is so big, your baby is very good, and you are more promising than you."

Tie Zhu's father was full of red and smiled and said, "Third grandfather, Tie Zhu has been smarter since he was a child, and he has been appointed to be better than me. You are always going to go slowly, and the child, his mother, help the third grandfather."

Tie Zhu's mother hurried forward and helped the old man to the banquet.

After seeing the old man gone, Tie Zhu's father snorted and said to Tie Zhu: "This old guy, he didn't look down on your father at the time, so he had to drive me away. Now that you are good at Tie Zhu, you come to say hi again. This relative, that's it."

Tie Zhu nodded ignorantly, and asked, "Father, is the fourth uncle here today?"

Tie Zhu's father shook his head and said, "Your fourth uncle has sent a letter. He can't come back when he is out of town. He can only rush back when he picks you up at the end of the month."

At this time, another horse-drawn carriage came rushing forward. After stopping at the entrance of the village, a fifty-something old man walked out. He looked at Tie Zhu's father, sighed and said, "Second, congratulations."

Tie Zhu's father looked complicated, and after a long time he said, "Big Brother..."

The old man swept his eyes, looked at Tie Zhu, smiled and said, "Second, this is your kid, yes, maybe this time he will be selected."

Tie Zhu's father frowned, then stretched out and said, "Tie Zhu has no good points. He is smart and willing to read. This time he will be selected."

"That's not necessarily true. The immortal sect collects disciples. The requirements are very strict. They pay attention to whether there is immortal fate. I think this kid is stupid and foolish. It's no use going there." An arrogant voice came and walked off the carriage. A teenager of sixteen or seventeen.

The boy was handsome in appearance, with sword eyebrows and stars, his face like a crown jade, and his eyes showed contempt.

Tie Zhu's father glared angrily, while Wang Lin took a deep look at the other person, without speaking.

The old man looked solemn and shouted: "Wang Zhuo, why are you so rude? This is your second uncle, and this is your brother Wang Lin. It's not polite." After that, he said to Tie Zhu's father: "The dog speaks badly. The second child, don’t mind, but..." He said this, he changed his conversation and said: "But the second child, this immortal accepting disciples is not that simple. You need to pay attention to fate. This time it’s Hengyue Sect. The immortal valued Dogzi, and then he became interested in my Wang family, and gave three places including Dogzi."

Tie Zhu's father snorted and said, "Since your baby can do it, my baby will definitely be selected too!"

The young man laughed and didn't care about the old man's scolding. He contemptuously said: "You are the second uncle. I advise you not to think better. This immortal cultivation system is almost the same without saying that there is no one in a million. This stupid boy can't be with this Young Master Bi, Ben Shao is a disciple appointed by the fairy master, can he compare?"

A smug look on the old man's face flashed, and he reprimanded a few more words, punched Tie Zhu's father, and led the young man to the banquet.

"Tie Zhu, don't be pressured. If you really haven't been selected, it won't be a big deal. It will be the same if you go to the county exam next year." Tie Zhu's father held back the weather for a long time before coming out slowly, and said earnestly.

Wang Lin looked firm and whispered: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely be selected!"

Tie Zhu's father gently patted his son on the shoulder, his eyes showing expectation.

After welcoming many relatives one after another, Tie Zhu's father finally took him back to the banquet. At this time, the crowd was full of friends and the scene was very lively. Everyone celebrated each other and was bustling.

"My family relatives, elders and villagers, my Wang Tianshui has no culture and can't say anything, but I am happy today. My baby has the opportunity to be selected as a disciple by the Hengyue faction. This is the happiest thing in my life. There are too many things, I won't say anything, thank you all for coming to me to say hi, thank you!" Tie Zhu's father finished speaking aloud, and picked up the wine glass cleanly.

"Second, your baby has been smart since he was a child, and he will definitely be selected to become an immortal like Wang Zhuo's child."

"Second brother, you have a child like Tie Zhu. You won't live in vain in this life. You can just wait for the happiness in the future."

"Tie Zhu, fight for your father, this time you will enter the Hengyue faction anyway."

The scene was very splendid for a while, and there were many celebrations, but secretly, there were also many people with the mentality of watching the excitement. For example, Wang Zhuo’s father was like this. He congratulated on the surface, but in his heart he never looked down on this second brother and treated him. This is even more true for the child of's. He looked at his own kid, then looked at Tie Zhu, feeling quite disapproving in his heart. The fourth son of Xindao gave up his quota this time. Although it was beyond his expectation, as long as the immortals were not blind , It is impossible to choose Tie Zhu.

Everyone here can see all the various forms of life. Tie Zhu's father pulled Tie Zhu and toasted at the table, introducing him one after another strange relatives.

On this day, Tie Zhu's father drank a lot of wine. He had never been so beautiful before. Until late, relatives left one after another. Before he left, the young Wang Zhuo still had that look of contempt, and whispered in Tie Zhu's ear while he was not paying attention: "Silly boy, you won't be selected, you don't have that piece of material."

After speaking, he smiled contemptuously and left with his father.

When he returned home, Tie Zhu lay on the bed and decided in his heart that he would be selected anyway!

Half a month passed in a hurry. On this day, Uncle Tie Zhu came in a carriage.

Tie Zhu’s parents hurriedly welcomed him into the room. The middle-aged man washed his face and said hurriedly: “Second brother, second wife, I can’t stay long this time. I will pick up Tie Zhu and leave immediately. It's coming to pick up people."

Tie Zhu’s father was taken aback, with a hint of reluctance on his face, and said decisively: "Okay, Tie Zhu, follow your uncle, you... If you are selected, you will be in the Hengyue faction. … If you are not selected, don’t have any burdens and come back home."

Tie Zhu looked at his parents reluctantly and nodded heavily. His mother took out a package from the room and said affectionately: "Tie Zhu, go out to listen to your uncle's words, don't cause trouble. Outside is no better than at home. My mother prepared some new clothes for you, as well as your favorite roasted sweet potatoes. My mother will miss you. If you are not selected, I will come back..." Tie Zhu said as his mother said, tears shed tears. .

Tie Zhu has never been out of the village since he was a child. This time, it was his first time to leave.

The fourth uncle sighed on the side and said: "Tie Zhu, you must be selected for your parents. Brother and sister-in-law, the family will have a big celebration banquet in a few days. I am in a hurry today. I will pick you up tomorrow. Going together, the three dolls of the family who were recommended to go up, there will be results at that time."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly got into the carriage with Tie Zhu, took a whip from the horse, and drove away.

Tie Zhu's parents kept watching the carriage disappearing quickly, tears streaming down.

"His father, Tie Zhu has never left our side. Will he be bullied when he goes out this time?" Tie Zhu's mother bit her lower lip, her eyes showing unwillingness.

"The baby has grown up and has their own blessing..." Tie Zhu's father picked up the pipe and took a deep breath. The wrinkles on his face suddenly increased a lot.
