In the early spring, the grass grows and the warbler flies, which is a good time. Outside the Xujiacun Village, a place with clear mountains and clear waters, a young man lying on his back on Ruyin's grass, with his arms resting behind his head, his posture is laid back and comfortable.
The pale golden sunlight hit the boy's face, warm and soft, so comfortable that he squinted his eyes and rested in peace.
This stay was one afternoon. In the evening, the last light was also hidden from the horizon. The young man yawned lazily and sat up.
When we walked to the entrance of the village, a boy dressed as a small servant trot over and said quickly: "Little master, the family is here, and tell the villain to come out and find you."
The teenager frowned, then let go: "Then go back soon."
The young man hurriedly led the way, walked a few stone roads, and came to a big house. The young man followed the small servant and entered the door. There was already a guest sitting in the hall. He was a middle-aged man in a long gown. His eyes were twinkling and his temples were raised high. He seemed to be an acquired master.
The young man had a pause, and he hurriedly walked in the next moment: "I heard that a guest has come, so I really missed it."
The middle-aged man named Xu Cheng, who was an effective steward of the division. He was very unwilling to be sent by the division master to meet this young master this time.
This is not a good job.
Where is Xujiacun? For a big family like the Xu family, let alone the clan family, it is the division of the family, and it is also one of the best in a city like Fenglin. And this Xujia Village is nothing more than a Zhuangzi in a small place. The people who have been sent here have been over the years, but there are still a few people.
But anyone who is a little favored is a bastard, and it is rare to be sent here. What's more, the origin of this young master is really not easy to say. He is not actually the son of the current master, but the former master—the only son of the sick and weak elder brother of the current master. He was originally a prostitute, but became embarrassed because of the death of his former master. It didn't take long for him to be sent to this Xujiacun. In name, he gave him the entire Zhuangzi. In fact, it was nothing more than worrying about food and clothing, and he might not really have the authority of Xujiacun.
If you are more aggressive, there is really a way to keep the people in the Zhuangzi down, even if you don't have much prospects, you can still be a landlord anyway. But this young master was soft-tempered, neither censuring his servant nor having a temper. Over time, thanks to the strict rules of the Xu family, even though the people were able to do things well, they didn't really look down on him very much in their hearts.
Xu Cheng came this time, naturally there was a big event. Otherwise, how could he, an eighth-level acquired martial artist, a number of characters outside the Houtian realm, come to such a place full of buns!
But after all, there is a difference between master and servant, Xu Chengshen is highly regarded by the master of the family, but he is a martial artist who is born in Jin, and can shock people because of the power of the martial artist, but he can't forget the basic rules. The master is the master and the servants are the servants, even those who have been forgotten and left out like this young master Xu Ziqing, Xu Cheng must also maintain a minimum of politeness.
He stood up, relied on his status as an eighth-level martial artist and did not salute, slightly nodded: "Little master, Xu Cheng is here to welcome you back by the order of the division master."
Xu Ziqing smiled: "I don't know what is important for my uncle to call me back?"
Xu Cheng said: "The young master is thirteen years old this year. Regardless of the bloodline of my Xu family, once they reach this age, they will be sent to the clan to test their spiritual roots. The young master is a direct descendant, so naturally it is no exception."
Xu Ziqing lowered his eyes. Naturally, he didn't want to leave Xujiacun. However, his arm couldn't twist his thigh, so he still had to come. He readily agreed: "When will you leave?"
Xu Cheng saw that this young master was not arrogant, and his behavior was generous, but he was two points more admiring: "If the young master doesn't mind, the sooner the better. Don't let me go tomorrow morning."
Xu Ziqing nodded: "According to what you said."
Xu Ziqing tossed and turned that night and couldn't sleep.
He was originally not a person in this world, but the son of a family in a world completely different from this one. Beloved and grown up since he was a child, it is a pity that he has a bad body and lived for 18 years, but he can only wander around the bed and the window.
The power system of that world is also very different from that of this world. People's physical fitness is naturally good, but they rely more on something called "technology". With this technology as the foundation, human beings have traveled back and forth in the universe several times, but their lifespan is short, and at most they can live less than two hundred years old.
In this world, people absorb the spirit of heaven and earth, and receive strength to temper their bodies. Or without spiritual roots, at best, they can only achieve the body of a martial artist. Or perhaps the body has spiritual roots and hopes to be immortal, but it is different from the martial artist, as long as he can really absorb the spiritual energy into that dantian, he will no longer be a mundane person.
Xu Ziqing was reborn in his mother's belly. She only knew that she should be a beautiful woman, but she had never seen her since she was born. My father was a gentle and elegant man, but unfortunately he was in poor health. He died before Xu Ziqing could speak. His father was clearly the eldest son, and he inherited the division for several years, but once he died, the division fell into the hands of his brother's brother.
His uncle's name is Xu Mengqian, and he has some thoughts, and he is not bad. But since there is a son in the main house, how can he let the eldest grandson stay? Xu Ziqing has only one way to be raised. If he hadn't drunk the bowl of Meng Po soup in his previous life, he would have been a dull temperament by those around him, and would have been ruined all his life.
In fact, Xu Ziqing has no ambitions herself. She had been lingering and sick in her previous life, and being able to have a healthy body in this life has been good fortune. As I grew up, I fell in love with the beauty of the mountains that was hard to see in my previous life. I was looking forward to staying in Xujia Village for the rest of my life. He just wanted to be unable to find out the roots of the roots in his head, otherwise he would have to stay in the clan, and it would be hard to say how he would live in the future.
The next day, a carriage swayed out of Xujiacun. Because Xu Ziqing had never studied martial arts, and also rarely worked, his physical fitness was not much better. Xu Cheng was expecting this. When he came, he hurried to the road with the strength of an eighth-level martial artist, but when he left, he got such a carriage. He drove the car freely in front, letting Xu Ziqing fall asleep in the car. The two of them also travel day and night, eating dry food and drinking the stream. Xu Cheng is energetic. The trekking horse is not an ordinary walking horse. They are not tired, but Xu Ziqing is sleepy and wakes up and looks at the scenery from the car window. . It doesn't feel difficult.
Three days later, I arrived at Fenglin City, where the Xu family was separated.
The carriage did not stop on the road, and went straight to the Xu Mansion. It is the deep house compound, with densely layered houses and two stone lions at the door of the house. I don't know who can craft it by hand. It is really mighty and majestic, with extraordinary momentum. Xu Cheng jumped out of the car, buckled twice on the vermilion gate, and a small servant opened the door.
Just listen to Xu Cheng said: "Young Master Xu Ziqing is back, don't hesitate to come and help Young Master get out of the car!"
After he scolded, the two maids walked out of the door quickly, opened the curtain in front of the carriage, stretched their arms and bowed their heads, and wanted to help the master to get out of the carriage.
Finally, an arm was placed on the maid’s wrist. The maid could not help but look up and saw a smiling face. Although childishness was still there, there was a gentle and gentle face between the eyebrows, and he couldn’t help but blush, and he couldn’t speak. , I just helped people down sooner.
Xu Ziqing got out of the car and said "Thank you", then let go and stood still. Xu Cheng was a little anxious, and hurriedly called the young master a few times before Xu Ziqing hurriedly followed and entered the main house together.
Someone reported to the branch master to know that Xu Mengqian came out to meet Xu Ziqing and exchanged a few words. Xu Ziqing also called "uncle" to answer, and then he was taken back to the room by the servant. I could only hear that the people had gathered together, and after a whole number of days off, it was time to go on the road and head to the clan's house.
