Central Plains, Taojiu Town.As the name suggests, the town is known for making peach wine.

It stands to reason that the Central Plains is a land of wind and sand, which is not suitable for the growth of peach trees in the south. Fortunately, the heavens and the earth have created several tall mountains on the flat ground to block the wind and sand and rain. In the deep valleys, peach blossoms are in full bloom and the fruits are sweet. , Only then did the well-known peach wine be brewed.

However, no matter how famous Taojiu Town is, it cannot make up for its remote location.Therefore, except for some caravans, there are almost no outsiders in this small town.Several generations of people in the town have multiplied and lived, and each of them is related to each other, almost like a blood settlement.

But these years, due to the turbulent changes outside, there is one more type of people who come to Taojiu Town, and that is soldiers.

Or more accurately, deserters.

For example, at this time, two or three soldiers were walking on the streets of Taojiu Town with spears on their shoulders. They walked along the road, attracting curious crowds to watch, chickens crowing and dogs barking.

The soldiers tried their best to show their ferocious expressions, but they saw that this group of countrymen were extremely ignorant, and not only were they not afraid, but they started discussing in one go:

"Look, here are some more soldiers."

"Is it from the imperial court this time, or from the five major families?"

"I look like the Pei family."

"Nonsense, I heard that the Pei family's army has excellent military discipline, how could it be possible for them to flee!"

"Then it belongs to the Qin family?"

"The Qin family still has the energy to build an army? Their family is almost dead, so the old patriarch is [-] this year, right? Half of his body is buried in the ground."

A group of men smoked dry cigarettes while leaning against the door chatting with the bits and pieces of news they heard, talking and laughing, not afraid of the threatening eyes of the deserters at all-what can a few foreign pawns do to them?

Don't say it's a pawn, it's the five big families, the royal relatives, and the big men who don't matter.

After all, the disputes outside cannot affect Taojiu Town.The big deal is not to sell wine, but to farm and raise chickens, and life is still happy.

When the deserters saw that everyone was completely unafraid of them, their hearts were full of anger, they strode into the only inn in the town, and slapped the counter heavily with their hands: "Three catties of beef and five taels of peach wine, get it for me quickly! "

The accountant behind the counter didn't even raise his head: "Look for Xiaoer to order food."

The deserters were ignored several times, and immediately flew into a rage. They reached out to snatch his bullshit account book, but just as they reached out, the accountant looked up at them.

That look was extremely shallow, the long eyelashes were slightly raised, and the divine light was faint. It was obviously easy to come by, but there was a sense of oppression for no reason, which made them dare not move.

"Don't touch my account book." He reminded softly, "It's just written, and I haven't shown it to the shopkeeper yet."

The deserters subconsciously nodded, and the cashier lowered his head again, continuing to look through his account books.

As he looked away, the oppressive feeling disappeared.A few people looked around in a daze, others were doing as usual, it seemed that it was just their illusion that coercion was not coercion.

It must be an illusion.

Several people thought this way, but still couldn't help but secretly looked at Mr. Accountant, only to realize that he was just a frail young man, wearing a half-worn robe, with white and slender wrists exposed from the cuffs, he looked like a naked chicken The power of the scholar.

He was holding a brush, flipping through the ledger, adding a few strokes on it casually, calmly, with a sense of beauty of flowing clouds and flowing water, ethereal and not like ordinary people.

The few people were stunned for a moment, but at this time Xiao Er noticed the movement here, and hurriedly came up with a smile: "Guest officials, please, do you dare to ask if you are going to be a top or stay in a hotel? Our place is rich in peach wine, the guest Do you want to have a taste, officials?"

The deserters had completely lost their temper at this time, and followed him to sit at the table very honestly, ordered food, and then pulled out the copper coins they had secretly hidden from their sleeves, belts, and various places. It was enough money for the meal.

Seeing this scene, the shopkeeper, who was secretly observing, couldn't help but frowned: "No bad debts, no troubles, he really welcomes this kind of guests!"

Speaking of it, it is all due to him, the accountant, the shopkeeper thought.

This young man's surname is Shen, but he doesn't know what his name is, but he is usually called Xiao Shen.On a rainy night five years ago, Xiao Shen came to Taojiu Town with a baby girl in his arms, and he opened his mouth to ask him if he was hiring, and if he could take him in.

At that time, the emperor had been missing for a long time, and there was chaos in the court. In addition, there was famine everywhere, which can be called chaos.

At that time, everyone was wondering: the prosperous dynasty was founded by a strong man in the sage realm, and will it collapse one day?

No one asks this question anymore, because looking around, apart from uprisings one after another, there are also demon cultivators emerging from various corners, causing devastation in the secular world and the world of cultivating immortals.

The dynasty has collapsed, and there are displaced people everywhere, and I think Xiao Shen is one of them.

Perhaps, he is not just a refugee, the shopkeeper was thinking, recalling Xiao Shen's face as pale as death, the newborn baby girl in his arms, the blood dripping from his body, and the pouring rain at night—— If Xiao Shen were a woman, it would be a bitter and bloody drama!

There was gossip in the shopkeeper's eyes, but he didn't get to the bottom of it, and he didn't even ask a single question for five years. This was partly because he sympathized with the young man's situation, and on the other hand, he was indeed very satisfied with Xiao Shen. work, I don't want to break up with him.

Among other things, since Xiao Shen became his accountant, there has never been a fight on credit in this inn, not even once.

Although it has nothing to do with Xiao Shen on the surface, and he has always been gentle and quiet, but the shopkeeper still feels inexplicably that this is Xiao Shen's credit.

This young man is simply the treasure of the town house, the shopkeeper thought, not only can he keep the house safe, but he can even repel snakes and avoid insects-look at this summer, there is not even a mosquito in the inn, which is more effective than mosquito coils!

The shopkeeper's heart was filled with unparalleled happiness, and he walked out with a smile, but just a few steps away, he was hit by a small figure like a cannonball, and almost fell to the ground.

"Hiss—" He frowned and looked down. When he saw the child, he lost his temper immediately, "It really is you, little demon!"

It was a little girl of four or five years old, with big watery eyes, long eyelashes that blinked, and delicate facial features like an elf. For a moment, it was hard to imagine that this was Xiao Shen's child.

But Xiao Shen did introduce her like this: "This is my daughter, her name is Shen Xiaoxiao."

At that time, the shopkeeper looked at Xiao Shen's ordinary facial features, and then at Shen Xiaoxiao's exquisite outline, and he couldn't believe it.

After all, this child is too extraordinary. Not only is he a delicate little beauty, but he is also extremely intelligent.What do you mean by the word for the school teacher in the town?Yes, "Stunning Talent".

An amazingly talented child, even if the parents think about it, they are also amazingly talented.

Therefore, this child must have an extraordinary background, maybe it is not Xiao Shen's child at all. The shopkeeper guessed countless times that her parents must be both dragons and phoenixes, maybe they are the children of a big family in the imperial capital.And Xiao Shen took her to escape to this otherworldly place, maybe he was ordered to protect the last blood of the Patriarch in this troubled world...

The shopkeeper's mind was getting bigger and bigger, and when he was thinking about it, he was pulled back from his thoughts by a light punch on the stomach.

He looked down, and it turned out that Shen Xiaoxiao was waving his small fist at him, and threateningly said: "Big fat man! What kind of conspiracy are you planning again!"

The shopkeeper couldn't help teasing her: "My conspiracy? I want to abduct Xiaoxiao to be our Azhi's little wife. Do you think it's okay?"

As he spoke, he quietly looked at Xiao Shen's expression, and saw that Xiao Shen just smiled and said nothing, showing no signs of worry, which made him even more certain that he was not Shen Xiaoxiao's father.

How can any father remain indifferent when he sees his daughter being married?

Xiao Shen didn't respond, but Shen Xiaoxiao reacted very much—but it was different from what he expected.

Shen Xiaoxiao didn't panic or be dazed as he imagined, but laughed out loud, mocking wantonly: "Just like Xiao Zhizi, it's almost as good as my servant!"

She waved her hand: "Xiao Zhizi! Xiao Zhizi! Don't you think so?"

Xiaozhi poked his head out from behind the door curtain when he heard the words, and gave Shen Xiaoxiao a silly smile: "Yes, sister Xiaoxiao."

"..." The shopkeeper looked at his son with hatred, "You are two years older than Xiaoxiao, right?!"

Xiao Zhi hesitated: "But everyone in school calls it that, even Brother Hao calls it that."

This "Brother Hao" is a child of the mayor's family. He is ten years old this year. He is the oldest and most stable one in the school in the town. Before Shen Xiaoxiao came, everyone in the school looked up to him.

But now it seems that Shen Xiaoxiao has replaced him as the new king of kids.

She's only five years old, and she's still a girl!Why did those bastards listen to her?The shopkeeper is really puzzled.

However, he looked down at Shen Xiaoxiao's domineering appearance with his teeth and claws open, and somehow felt that this was normal.

After all, it is Xiaoshashen, he sighed.

And Xiao Shen—that is, Shen Yi, completely let her mess around, watching her misbehaving, a little smile appeared in her eyes.

At this time, Shen Xiaoxiao finished tossing a circle of people, and jumped to his side contentedly: "Daddy, I want to go home!"

Shen Yi glanced at the shopkeeper, saw the shopkeeper waving at him, and then left with a smile.

As soon as Shen Xiaoxiao stepped out of the inn, she snorted softly: "Stupid mortal."

Shen Yi glanced at her lightly: "Smile."

"Oh, what's the matter?" Shen Xiaoxiao shook his hand, "Aren't I right, mother?"

"Call me Daddy." Shen Yi corrected, "Also, Xiaoxiao, you are also a mortal."

Shen Xiaoxiao was unhappy: "That's not it!"

She was bouncing up and down the street, smiling and saying, "I'm not a mortal, I'm a little witch."

She stretched out her small hand, but without knowing what to do, a blue butterfly flew out from her fingertips, then she waved the butterfly in front of Shen Yi's eyes, and said proudly: "Mother, am I good?"

"Hurry up and praise me for being great" all over his face.

However, Shen Yi stretched out his hand to scatter the butterfly formed by spiritual power, and said, "Don't put all your energy on this, just smile. Let me ask you, have you finished your homework in today's school? Write a few big letters ?”

Shen Xiaoxiao's smile suddenly collapsed: "I don't want to do my homework."

Shen Yi didn't give in: "Then what should I do when the master checks tomorrow?"

Shen Xiaoxiao took it for granted: "Recite it temporarily."

"..." Shen Yi sighed, "You can't do this, smile."

She didn't inherit so many advantages from her cheap father, but she only inherited his vicious playboy, Shen Yi really has a headache.

"Why can't I do this!" Shen Xiaoxiao was dissatisfied, "I'm a little witch who traverses the Three Realms! My mother is the Nine Heavens Demon Lord, and my father is——hmm!"

Shen Yi covered her mouth and corrected: "Well, yes, you are a little witch, or an illiterate witch who doesn't know a single word."

Shen Xiaoxiao: ...

Shen Yi rubbed her soft hair: "I don't ask you to read for anything else, you don't have to worry about those rules and regulations, but Xiaoxiao, you must at least be able to read, right?"

Shen Xiaoxiao struggled to death: "There has never been a rule that Moxiu must be literate, mother!"

"Now I have it," Shen Yi said coldly, "I added it newly."

"... What's so difficult about literacy!" Seeing that she couldn't argue with it, Shen Xiaoxiao immediately backed down a step, "I can learn it by myself, so I don't want to stay in this ravine."

She looked at Shen Yi expectantly: "Mother, I want to go back to Donghuang! I want to go back to our magic cultivator's territory!"

"There is no place for magic cultivators," Shen Yi said lightly, "Even if it's me, isn't it just looking for a place to live?"

"That's because mother doesn't want to," Shen Xiaoxiao whispered, "As long as mother wants to, the world will be in our hands!"

She was giggling, showing her sharp little canine teeth, her pupils suddenly turned dark red, and her eyes were extremely excited.

Shen Yi looked at her and fell silent for a moment.

Shen Xiaoxiao is indeed his own flesh and blood, her father... Although her father is rebellious, he is indeed an orthodox monk.

But Shen Xiaoxiao, because of his obsession, was born a demon cultivator.

She is different from herself and her father - she doesn't know what the human world is like, she only knows the world of magic cultivators.

And what is the world of magic cultivators like?

Indifference, bloodthirsty killing, this is the instinct of the demon cultivator, there is nothing else other than that.

When Shen Yi came out of Guixu alive, he was so relaxed and happy; but when he found out that Shen Xiaoxiao was born as a demon cultivator, he felt so guilty.

So he thought of a way. He lived in the world with Shen Xiaoxiao for five years, hoping that she would have a little more "popularity".

Apart from literacy, he didn't instill anything in Shen Xiaoxiao.She doesn't need to learn those ways of loyalty and filial piety, nor does she need to learn the ridiculous rules of heaven.

Naturally, he would not let Shen Xiaoxiao go through the bondage he was once subjected to.He just wants her to see that this is the world, where your parents once belonged.

The ideal is full, but the reality is that Shen Xiaoxiao doesn't care about other people at all.She played around in the world, except for Shen Yi, she couldn't let go of anyone else.

Oh, except for the "daddy" she keeps talking about.

In short, there are only three people in her world: herself, mother, and father.

"If you don't want the world, then don't," Shen Xiaoxiao muttered, "Then mother, when are we going to find daddy?"
