Turned a corner while ascending

Xizhou is different from Dongzhou divided into cities.Here, a solid central empire, the Zhenwu Dynasty, is centralized and ruled, and some small countries survive side by side.

In Xizhou, cultivators also enjoy very high status and treatment, but most of them are drawn by those in power to consolidate their status. The noble feet are on the dust, so when two particularly handsome young people come from a small mountain village in the southeast corner of Xizhou, no one will think that they are cultivators.

The closer to the Eight Great God Mountains, the more undulating mountains, lush forests, and hordes of wild animals.Therefore, the villages near the mountains are very heavy on martial arts, and everyone in the village is a good hunter.

This village located on the remaining veins of Quting Mountain is very prosperous.

There are more than 2000 families in the village, with a total of more than [-] people. They cut wood and build houses in a relatively flat place in the valley. more than double.

The village has a lot of people and is powerful. Apart from hunting, it can also cultivate terraced fields and grow some grain. The soybeans produced in this village are also famous in the nearby cities, as well as the large and small wells in the village.

No matter how high or low the water well is, it will never dry up, and the water is mellow and refreshing, very palatable.

A fairy once passed by here by chance and drank the water from the well in the village. He said bluntly that the water contains a little spiritual power and can best nourish the mortal body. Drinking it often can strengthen the body and prolong life, which has many benefits.

Immortals look down on such a small profit, but ordinary people flock to it, and it has also created the prosperity of the village today in disguise.If it wasn't for the fact that the available land was too small, maybe this place would have turned into a city long ago.

Since then, no matter what the village was called before, it has changed its name now, and everyone calls it Lingquan Village.

Lingquan Village is narrow in the east and wide in the west, and there is a small alley in the east, near the mountains.

The walls of the alley are the back walls of the left and right houses, paved with bluestone bricks, tall and dark all the year round, and passing through this alley, you can directly reach the grain drying field at the east end of the village.

It was the soybean harvest season at this time, and there was a lot of voices in the sun-drying field. The adults were busy drying and beating beans, and the children were running and playing wildly.

A four or five-year-old child was attracted by a well at the south end of the sun-drying field. He broke away from the main force and ran over curiously. He lay down on the high well platform, buried his head in the well mouth, and looked down.

There are three big trees growing here, covered by thick shade, but no one noticed the little child's movements.

The child stretched his neck and looked down.

The cold air in the well made him feel very comfortable. He stared at it curiously. After a while, he suddenly pulled his head out and shouted behind him: "Mother, mother, come and see, there are stars in the well!"

A young woman followed her prestige, and was taken aback. The wooden fork in her hand was thrown aside with a bang. The woman rushed to the well in three steps at a time. A heart fell steadily back into the chest.

"You stupid child, why did you go to the well to play?" Thinking of the appearance of my child's feet hanging in the air and relying on his stomach to support the well, I couldn't help but feel scared. I waved my palm again and again, and the child cried loudly. .

After crying, he naturally forgot all about the stars in the well.

When the woman went home in the evening and told her husband about it, the husband also remembered that deep and large well, and there was an undercurrent at the bottom of the well.

So the next day, the couple approached the village head and told them about the well. The village head asked for the opinions of the whole village, and led people to push down the platform of the well next to the grain drying field in the east of the village, and then put the top of the well on top. The disused stone grinding disc is so safe that no one is afraid that someone will fall it.

Jin stood on the top of the mountain, concealed his figure, and looked at all kinds of mortals at his feet curiously.

Under the various conditions of life, he couldn't help but think of the small mountain village where he stayed after picking up Bai Zhizhuo.

"I think of you in the past. At that time, you were so stupid. No matter what the villagers told you, you didn't respond. Whoever led you could take it away. You could eat whatever you fed... Da Zhuang, do you remember Those days?"

Bai Zhizhuo flexed his fingers, quickly flicked Jin Que's forehead hard, and said expressionlessly: "It's better to forget what should be forgotten."

But Jin laughed: "Don't, it was so fun at that time. The villagers were simple and honest. Although you don't remember, they treated you very well. They didn't mind that you were stupid and stupid. They were willing to marry their daughter to you."

And this thing?The burning face is black and white.He wasn't really ignorant of those years.

Even if he couldn't communicate with the outside world at that time, after advancing to the first rank, he slowly recalled some vague little things.

For example, how did Jin Ke feed him at that time? Fortunately, I don’t remember the taste, or else he would have to vomit once at a time.

What I remember most is that Jin Que, who was still a young boy at the time, had a calmness and determination that many adults could not match.

Watching him act, you will know that this person is by no means a follower, but the kind of master who is used to giving orders and directing others to do things since childhood.

So for a long time after waking up, even though he was not familiar with the Qiongming Realm, he trusted this little boy wholeheartedly, agreed with all the decisions he made, and didn't even have any thoughts of leaving.

Even if there is, it's still teasing him.

These inexplicable trusts were accumulated during the three years of ignorance.

The two dreamed about the past.

What Jin was thinking about was the carefree years when he just looked after Bai Zhizhuo every day, and what Bai Zhizhuo was thinking about was how he fell into Jin Que's pit without knowing it.

After being quiet for a while, Bai Zhizhuo came back to his senses first, remembered the business, and asked, "Why are we here?"

Jin woke up from his memories, thought for a while, and pointed to a large village at his feet: "This is Lingquan Village."

"kindness?"

"We want to find a well in the village, a special well that can see the stars."

Because the well water in Lingquan Village is so famous, the villagers receive many outsiders every day.

Half of the young and middle-aged people in the village went to the mountains to hunt, and the remaining half had to stay in the village, um, to sell water.

As soon as the two young men entered the village, they attracted the attention of almost all villagers, regardless of gender.

In the eyes of the villagers, both of them are very young.

The one in white is too handsome. The most beautiful woman in the village is not even as good as him. If it wasn't for his tall stature and the masculine spirit in his eyes, they would definitely think that this white-clothed boy is a woman Modified.

And the one in black is a little shorter, and looks... so cute, with facial features, nose and mouth, long hands and long feet, no matter how you look at it, it's so cute.

"Hey, strangers, would you like some well water?" First a young man greeted warmly, fetched a bucket of fresh water from the well in front of his house, and invited the two of them to drink.

When the two of them walked to the well, the boy in black seemed to be quite curious, and even lowered his head to look into the well for a long time.

"Did you two come here just for this well water? I'm not bragging about myself. The well water in our village is very famous. It's sweet and delicious. Come and taste it."

Jin took a sip from the ladle, nodded with a smile, and asked innocently, "Is the well water in your village so delicious? Can I taste all of it?"

The young man had no doubts about him, he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, most of the wells in our village are connected, and they all smell the same. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to try it!"

"Look, if you follow this stone road all the way up, you will pass all the wells in the village, come with me!"

The young man put aside everything and took the two of them away.
