Three o'clock in the morning, in the company office.

"I'm so tired. I don't want to do this crappy job for even a day."

Chen Diji turned off the computer, packed it in his bag, and stood up tremblingly. His eyes were red and his eyelids were dark blue from staying up all night.

He left the company carrying his computer bag and pressed the down button for the elevator. A "ding-ling" sounded quickly and the elevator door opened. He came from the 27th floor to the first floor. It was almost pitch black outside, with only a few street lights flickering on the roadside.

"I can't get a taxi now, forget it, let's just walk home!"

Chen Diji was walking alone on the road, and from time to time he could hear the sound of wheels rolling beside him.

He looked back and a beam of white light hit him, stinging his eyes a little.

"Hey, pretty girl. Come play with me."

"What are you talking about! He's a man!"

"What? A man? It's okay if it's a man. I heard that men taste good too, hehehe..."

Just then, a van stopped beside him, and one of the men stared at him with a sinister look on his face, from top to bottom, and finally stopped at his waist.

Oh no, we have encountered an outlaw.

Chen Diji reacted and subconsciously wanted to escape, but before he took a few steps, several tall and strong figures came out of the van, each holding a stick in his hand and attacked him.

My vision became blurry, the sounds in my ears gradually became inaudible, I heard tinnitus, and my head felt dizzy.

Hold on! Chen Diji, get out of here! Don't... let them catch you!

**

"He is beyond saving. His heart and kidneys are missing. Even his corneas have been taken away. It is estimated that he has been dead for several minutes."

"It's a pity that such a young boy is gone like this."

**

"Ah... my son, which damned thing harmed you? How can your brother and I survive in this world if you leave us behind... No. 1, No. 1! Ah..."

Mom~Don't cry...I'm still here...

My head hurts... Mom...

"Baby, you have to grow up and become a hero like your father."

There is water...

Chen Diji felt dizzy and suddenly felt the sound of water beside him. However, when he wanted to reach out and touch it, he found that he could not stretch out his hands. His hearing only became more acute.

"Baby, you must be good. If you don't behave and make your mother sad, I will beat you when you come out!"

"Daddy, Daddy, is Mommy pregnant with a brother or a sister?"

"I don't know yet! You will know when your mother gives birth to him. But Lin'er, do you hope he will be a brother or a sister?"

"I hope it's my younger brother, so I can bully him. Aww~"

"Okay, then let's have another brother."

Chen Diji heard a strong male voice and a tender child's voice.

They were talking but I couldn't understand what they were saying.

But what is certain is that Chen Diji is now in a place that is very different from his original place. Maybe he was sold to Mdian by that group of people, or maybe he was brought into a pyramid scheme organization. In short, it is not a good place.

But when he listened carefully, he heard that there were children and adults, and he seemed to be in an ordinary farmer's home.

Chen Diji had no idea what was happening outside, and he didn't know where he was at the moment. Suddenly, his heart started beating and an incredible voice popped up in his mind.

He was saying, could it be that he traveled through time?

Chen Diji was shocked by his own thought, but finally calmed down.

He suddenly became interested. Could it be the future world, Ultraman vs. Godzilla? Transformers vs. aliens? No, no, no, he suddenly remembered the accents of the two people just now, and he seemed to hear some ancient meaning in them.

This is Country Z, of course you’ve traveled to a world of martial arts or cultivation!

Thinking of this, Chen Diji began to recall the Taoist techniques he had learned out of interest, including how to draw Qi into the body and the initial method of becoming a cultivator.

He meditated in his mind, and struggled to assume a meditation posture. At this moment, he was not sure whether it was his soul that was meditating or his body.

Gradually letting go of his troubled thoughts, his whole body began to empty. He mobilized his consciousness, placed his hands on his abdomen, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the air entering his body.

From somewhere came the sounds of children and adults playing and fighting, but he paid no attention to them and focused entirely on feeling the breath entering his body.

He didn't know how many hours he did this, but when he woke up, he found that the rough male voice seemed to be talking to him.

"When you grow up, you are not allowed to be naughty, do you understand? Otherwise... I will definitely beat you up."

"Husband, what are you talking about! Baby, you must be the best and won't make me feel bad."

"Bullshit, then why did you feel uncomfortable just now?"

"It's inevitable that pregnancy will cause some discomfort, but after the pain, I feel like my baby has become stronger."

Chen Diji listened quietly to the conversation between a man and a woman. He didn't understand a word, but the pronunciation of one of the words sounded like...baby?

Such corny words were actually used to describe a man who is almost thirty years old. Who wouldn't find it corny?

Chen Diji didn't care and just closed his eyes and continued practicing.

He had a feeling, he felt as if something entered his body, making him feel extremely comfortable all over.

Sure enough, this is a world of cultivating immortals.

I don’t know how long it had been, but the man always came here to chatter, and he would talk for several hours at a time.

"Artie, I've picked out a name for our daughter."

"How about calling him Tiji? Ti is taken from your name, and Ji means auspiciousness and good fortune. How does that sound to you?"

"What if it's a boy?"

"It's a boy? Then name him Chen Diji."

"Okay! Let's call him Chen Diji. Baby, you will be born in six months. From now on, your name will be Chen Diji.

What the hell are you talking about? I don't understand. I don't understand at all!

But Chen Diji didn't care at all. He was always thinking about his mother and younger brother. He worked until two or three in the morning just to earn more money to pay for his brother's tuition and make his mother live an easier life.

His mother...has suffered enough...

He tried many times, but found that he could not leave here no matter what, so he had to start meditating again. He found that meditation was indeed useful. Every time he finished meditating, he felt that his body was full of strength, and he could even feel a warm current slowly entering his body.

Time passed by unknowingly. By chance, he moved his fingers and was surprised to find that he could move. Not only that, he also felt as if his body was full of strength and he had an indescribable sense of comfort.

He put his hands down and tried to open his eyes, but found that he still couldn't. He could only meditate as usual and then listen to the conversation between the man and woman.

I could only hear a lot of chatter.

"Chen Lang, is there something wrong if the baby doesn't move or make a fuss? I'm a little scared."

"Don't worry, the baby will be fine! If he is, I will make those quacks pay the price."

Listening to the sounds coming from the outside world, Chen Diji quickly stretched out his little hand. He felt as if he touched something. He vaguely guessed that he seemed to be in a woman's belly. If he guessed correctly, this woman was his mother in this life.

Considering the fragility of the human body, Chen Diji did not use spiritual power, but gently stroked his belly.

"The baby is touching me, husband, look, this is the baby's hand."

"Well, baby, you must be good and don't make your mother feel bad."

Chen Diji didn't understand, and his palm overlapped with the palm outside. He was shocked and quickly took his hand back.

"Look, the baby understood what I said." The man chuckled, his serious eyes revealing a hint of smile, and his calloused hands were gently patting the woman's belly.

Chen Diji felt the love between the man and the woman, which almost made him faint from happiness. He almost really thought that he was just a child and everything before was just a dream about an ordinary person.

But soon, he was pulled out of this happiness because he was worried about his brother and mother. Even though he knew it was impossible, he still wanted to go home.

Continue to practice. Since you have the chance to start over, you can't let it go for a moment.

Chen Diji, who was in the woman's belly, shook his head. He must not be swayed by his emotions and must work hard.

He was not sure whether he was in the fantasy world of fantasy novels or the world of cultivation novels.

No matter in which world, the strong are respected.

He tried to cross his legs again, placing his hands on his barely bent knees.

A stream of air once again passed through the woman's belly from the outside world, entered his body little by little and gathered in his dantian.

He began to feel warm all over, as if something was breaking through. He held his breath and concentrated, and soon he felt that his body seemed to have changed, as if many of the impurities in his body had been removed, and he also clearly felt that he seemed to have become stronger.

He was still a child, and the time he could practice was limited every day, so he spent most of the day sleeping. He was unwilling to spend so much time resting, but he couldn't resist the fatigue brought by his body.

Whenever he felt drowsy, he could always hear a woman's voice outside.

"Look, baby, winter is coming. Next spring, next spring, we will be able to meet each other. Do you want to see your mother?"

Every day, Chen Diji would occasionally respond to the woman's mumbling by placing his little hand on his mother's belly, but as the woman asked more and more questions, his responses became less and less, because he had to use all of his limited time on cultivation.

I don't know how much time had passed, but his body was getting bigger and bigger, and now he could barely wave his chubby little hands and play with the umbilical cord connected to his body.

This feeling is amazing. Even if you have read about what a child looks like in the mother's womb on the Internet, it is a completely different feeling when you experience it yourself.

At this time, he could control his hands and feet better, and he was busy every moment of the day. Except for the necessary sleep, he spent most of his waking time absorbing Qi and rarely moved.

Chen Diji was so calm that the woman almost thought that something had happened to him. She was worried for a long time. The first thing she did every morning when she woke up was to use her spiritual power to detect and make sure that Chen Diji was alive.

One day, the woman seemed to feel something strange, and she said to the man, "Since I became pregnant with this baby, I always feel that the spiritual energy around me enters my body from time to time. Do you think this is the result of the baby?"

"That's what Madam said. Our baby will be born in three months. I hope nothing unexpected will happen in these three months."

"By the way, is my sister-in-law going to give birth too?"

"Yeah." The man nodded. "It's about the same as yours. If we were born on the same day by chance, maybe we would have double happiness."

"How could this happen by such a coincidence? Calculating the time, I should be behind her."

"Then our baby will have a little brother again." The man put one hand around the woman's waist and stroked her belly with the other hand, his eyes full of tenderness.

Chen Diji, who had just finished practicing, felt a slight heat coming through his belly. This time, he stretched out a hand as if possessed by a ghost and touched that palm again.

This was the warmth from his father, something he had never felt in his previous life.

It would be nice if I could get out earlier.

He thought for no reason that after nearly four or five months of companionship, he had already unknowingly developed some feelings for his father and mother in this life, but he was more of a curiosity.

Three months later

"The master has something important to discuss. Mr. Chen San, please come over."

"What happened?" The man looked serious. The woman had been pregnant for nearly ten months, and these few days would be the time when the baby would be born. He did not want to leave his wife rashly, but at this critical juncture he had important matters to discuss, which made him inevitably reluctant.

"If it weren't for the invasion of foreign enemies, I would not participate in this matter."

"The head of the family has issued an order. Anyone who violates it will be expelled from the Chen family."

Xiao Si passed the patriarch's order to the man verbatim. The man looked solemn, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

I'm afraid this matter is not simple.

The man turned around and saw his wife walking slowly out of the house, holding her belly, looking at him with gentle and affectionate eyes.

"I don't need you to accompany me, just go." The woman's gentle voice sounded, "It's just giving birth to a child. I won't be unable to give birth without someone to accompany me."

"Besides, this isn't my first time giving birth, so go ahead! Don't worry about me."

"Madam." As soon as the woman finished speaking, the man looked at her with a conflicted look. Finally, under Xiao Si's urging, he left.

After the man left, the woman felt uneasy. Suddenly, she felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen. She quickly called the maid to help her into the house.

But after taking a few steps, a warm current flowed out from under her body and her abdomen hurt even more.

When the maidservant saw the transparent liquid on the ground, she shouted, "It's time to give birth! It's time to give birth! Madam is going to give birth! Midwife, come quickly! Madam is going to give birth!"

When Chen Diji woke up, he found it was a noisy scene outside, and the amniotic fluid surrounding him seemed to have become much less and was disappearing rapidly.

It's time to give birth.

He can come out.

This was Chen Diji’s first thought.

A force pushed him hard outwards, and there seemed to be a pair of hands outside to welcome him. Just as he was about to go out, a warmth enveloped him, and the golden light made it impossible for him to open his eyes.

The soul-stirring bell sound began to echo, and vaguely, he seemed to see a person standing under a pitch-black tree.

He wanted to see the man's face clearly, but he couldn't. Finally, he fainted completely.

"Aunt Zhang, look... the young master... why is there no movement at all?"

"Dead fetus?" A midwife took a look at the baby. The baby had fair skin and a rosy complexion, but it had been a long time since it was born and still hadn't opened its eyes and was crying loudly. She looked at the maid and quickly took the baby.

"Go take care of the lady. The golden light that appeared out of nowhere just now made her faint. Please take good care of her and don't let anyone know."

"Then this child..." The little maid looked at the child in the wet nurse's arms, wondering where the midwife would take the child.

"If the master knew that this child was stillborn, he would lose his head. I will think of other ways. This child..."

The midwife suddenly heard the sound of a trickle of water. She looked up and saw a clear stream with a few fish swimming in it.

"This child has a bad fate. I will let him go like the fish in the water!"

After saying that, she quickly wrapped the child up in a ball, then immediately carried the child out of the yard. She came under a maple tree with new buds, and a graceful woman slowly walked towards her.

"How is it?" the woman asked. "Is she fainted?"

"Fainted." The nurse replied, "The child... the child is dead. I will throw him into the water later and give him to the fish and shrimp to eat."

"I don't care what you do. As long as you get rid of him, it will be good for both you and me." The woman glanced indifferently at the motionless baby and quickly handed the baby in her hands to the midwife.

"You know, if you don't do this, you and I, and even your family, will be buried with you for this matter."

"I know, I know." The midwife hunched over, not even daring to raise her head. She took the baby with a trembling hand and asked tentatively, "My grandson..."

"He's fine! As long as you get your job done, I'll make sure he has enough food and drink. It just so happens that my son Wan'er needs a companion to study with, so he'll be the one."

"Thank you...Thank you, Madam Second!"
