Rebirth in the 1980s: Xiaoxiao's road to becoming a top student

"Go ahead! It's good for you to go out and see the world, but you have to listen to your master in everything!"

Yan Xiaoxiao thought that the person who was most difficult to convince was her mother Yin Xiu, but unexpectedly she was the first one to agree.

"Mom, aren't you worried about me?" Yan Xiaoxiao felt uncomfortable when she saw her mother agreed immediately.

"Haha, you little girl. That's because mom knows what Grandpa Wu Zu is capable of. With him around, it's good that you don't cause harm to others."

"Are you my biological mother? I wasn't picked up by you, was I?"

Yin Xiu pretended to hit Yan Xiaoxiao for being outspoken. She stood up flexibly, moved away from her mother, and sat next to Yin Hongjun who was sitting opposite her.

Yin Hongjun watched the mother and daughter playfully, "When are you leaving? Where are you going?"

"I don't know where to go, so I'll just walk around and have a look, and see where I go!"

Yan Xiaoxiao didn't care at all. She was very happy to go out and travel. As for where to go, that was for her master to worry about. She just had to follow him.

She took out two small jade bottles and handed one to Yin Xiu and Yin Hongjun respectively, and instructed: "This is the life-saving medicine made by my master, called the Soul-Restoring Pill. It will work as long as there is still a breath left. You must keep it well."

She thought for a moment and said, "Use it when you need it. Don't be reluctant. I'll give it to you as candy when I learn it later!"

Yin Hongjun laughed happily, "Well, our Xiaoxiao will definitely be very powerful in the future!"

"That's for sure!" Yan Xiaoxiao said proudly, "You can enjoy your life from now on. You must take good care of yourself and wait for me to come back!"

Yeah! The two of them nodded vigorously, trying not to laugh.

"Sister, sister, I want one too!" The younger brother saw that the jade bottle given by Yan Xiaoxiao was very beautiful, so he also reached out to take it.

Yan Xiaoxiao had no choice but to take out another empty bottle for him. These jade bottles were also given to her by her master, so that she could keep them to store pills.

She could tell that these were all top-quality jades. Seeing how wealthy her master seemed, he didn't seem to care at all. She guessed that these should not be a big deal to her master.

She pulled out a few more ginseng and ganoderma from the space, and her master packed them in several rosewood boxes as if they were treasures. Yan Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched as she saw them.

"Xiaoxiao, it is your good fortune that you can worship Grandpa Wuzu as your teacher. You must cherish it and learn well from your master." Yin Hongjun said earnestly.

It was also the first time that Yan Xiaoxiao heard about her master's past from her grandfather.

One night, an old man in the village couldn't sleep and was wandering around. When he came to the willow forest in the south of the village, he heard intermittent singing of opera.

He was very curious and walked slowly towards the sound. In the faint moonlight, he saw a woman sitting under a willow tree.

She seemed to have noticed something and stopped singing before the old man approached her, and suddenly looked up at him.

The old man had a bad feeling in his heart, so he stopped and just shouted loudly: "Who? Who are you?"

I thought the woman wouldn't say anything, but she actually said, "I'm just passing by here, I'll be leaving in a minute!"

The old man breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave when he saw a man running towards him with a kerosene lamp. "Mother, why are you running around? Go home quickly!"

In the dim light of the kerosene lamp, the old man recognized the man and said, "Yu Lao Si?"

"Hey!" The man shone the light and recognized the old man, "Uncle, why are you here too?"

"I was passing by and heard the noise, so I came to see! Is that your wife? Why doesn't her voice sound like hers? It's so sharp and thin. I just asked her and she said she was just passing by, so I thought she was from another village."

"That's my wife. I don't know what's wrong with her lately. She comes out every night and always says some inexplicable things!" Yu Lao Si shouted at the top of his voice, "Mother, come home!"

"I won't go back! That's not my home. My home is in the woods thirty miles away."

Yu Laosi stepped forward and tried to pull her arm, "What nonsense are you talking about? This is your home, and the children are waiting for you to go back! Come back quickly!"

"If you let me go, I won't come back! Hold the lamp and stay away from me. What if it burns my fur?"

The old man's hair stood up. Yu Laosi's body became a little stiff, and his voice trembled. "You are my wife and the mother of my child. Come back with me!"

The woman dodged, her voice becoming shriller, “Stay away from me, stay away from me!”

She suddenly turned around and ran very fast, and the two of them hurriedly chased after her.

At this time, another person came towards them. When Yu Laosi's wife saw the person coming, she stopped immediately, her body still shaking.

Yu Laosi and the old man chased after him and saw clearly that the man was none other than the Fifth Ancestor.

Yu Lao Si's face lit up with joy, "Fifth Ancestor Grandpa?"

"Well!" Grandpa Wu Zu looked at the trembling woman, "Go back to where you came from and leave as soon as possible!"

The woman knelt on the ground. "I also want to leave this body, but she wants to hurt me. I have to take her back for revenge."

"I'll ask her to apologize to you and give you some tribute. What do you think?"

The woman hesitated.

"I don't think they want to offend you on purpose. You can't take them away with me. Just quit while you're ahead!"

"Okay!" The woman finally nodded and agreed.

Grandpa Wu Zu ordered Yu Lao Si, "Go home and get some incense and candles as offerings, and kill a chicken and bring it back. Go quickly!"

"Oh, oh!" Yu Laosi agreed and left quickly. Not long after, he brought a basket of incense, candles, paper money and a freshly slaughtered hen.

The Fifth Ancestor laid out everything one by one, and then he muttered something and made a gesture with his hands. The incense, candles, and paper money ignited without fire and soon burned to ashes.

The moment the fire went out, Yu Laosi's wife screamed and fainted on the ground. Yu Laosi hurried forward to support her, and soon she opened her eyes.

"Where is this? Why am I here? Am I not at home cooking?"

Grandpa Wu Zu snorted coldly, "Did you see a weasel catch a rabbit, and not only did it snatch the rabbit, but it also beat the weasel?"

Yu Laosi’s wife: “How do you know?”

"Everything in the world has its own spirit. You don't know what you can and can't mess with. You've lived to this age in vain. Be careful next time! You're about to eat someone, and it's retribution for them to mess with you. Be careful next time!"

Yu Laosi quickly assured, "No, it won't happen again!" He had come to his senses now, and his whole body was shaking as if he had the hiccups.

The old man watched the whole show and got goose bumps all over his body. What he saw and heard that night overturned his previous cognition, and he accidentally told Yin Hongjun about it one day.

Yin Hongjun had also heard a lot about the Fifth Ancestor.

During the Anti-Japanese War, my fifth ancestor set up a formation in the village, which saved most of the people in the village; during the famine, he also provided a lot of food, otherwise everyone in the village would have starved to death; no one has ever entered his shabby courtyard, because no matter how hard they tried, they could not push open the door of his house.

When Yin Hongjun said this, he looked at Yan Xiaoxiao meaningfully.
