Xuantian 1: Ancient Xuandongtian

Chapter 2 Your Childhood Love

"Where have you been?" A middle-aged female voice asked.

The little girl hesitated and said, "I went to the east of the village to play."

"Why did you come back now? Don't know when you will come back for dinner?" the middle-aged female voice asked again.

"Mom, I know I was wrong. I will come back sooner next time." The little girl said.

The middle-aged female voice said softly: "Okay, go wash your hands and eat. The ones left for you are still hot."

"Okay, thank you mother." The little girl blinked and said lightly.

Just as the little girl washed her hands and picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat, a male voice said, "Huh? How strange! Your daughter is so obedient today?"

"Ghost knows!" the female voice replied.

The middle-aged woman was also surprised, but immediately said: "What is your daughter? It seems that you are not talking about your daughter."

The man smiled embarrassingly, and said, "Didn't we agree at the beginning, I will raise the son, and you will teach the daughter."

The middle-aged woman thought about it for a while, but she didn't have any clues, so she asked a question: "Why do you think the pigeon is so obedient today, unlike her!"

"Hey, it's not good to be obedient. I said, why do you think so much?" The man said a little indifferently.

But suddenly the man said: "Did she get into trouble again? I dare not tell you."

"I don't know." The woman replied, and said, "Anyway, it's not normal. I always talk back."

"Hey, don't worry about it. If she gets into trouble, someone will come to us." The man said lazily.

He added, "I'm used to it."

"With her like this, I'm really worried about how she will marry in the future," said the woman.

But the man said: "You are only so young, you start to worry about these things. If you are really afraid that she won't be able to get married, you should go and make a young marriage for her sooner rather than later. Worrying all day is unfounded."

"It's just you, you don't care about anything all day long, what else do you do besides eating and being lazy?" the woman complained.

The man didn't want to talk to the woman, nor did he comfort her, so he turned over and fell asleep.

Love softens, even the first feelings, the vaguest feelings.Happiness makes one generous, kind, and willing to give.What makes a person narrow, bitter, mean, vicious, deceitful, and dark is often not only his nature, but also his unfortunate life.It's unfortunate and pathetic, but fair and recurring.The only thing that can change the status quo is being correctly guided and insisting on the correct choice.

Mu Hanchan went up the mountain to meet his old partner.

"Are you here again?" an old man asked.

"Yes. Here I am again." Mu Hanchan replied.

"What confusion do you have, do you need me to help you?"

"I'm in love with a girl."

"Does she know? Does she like you?"

"You should know it, and you should like it."

"Did you tell her?"

"I didn't tell, and I didn't dare to ask her if she liked me."

"why?"

"I don't know how to speak, and I'm afraid in case she doesn't like me."

"Didn't you say she should like you?"

"But I'm not sure, so I'm scared in case."

The old man looked at the boy in front of him thoughtfully, and said, "Do you have anything to be afraid of? I always thought that you would not be afraid of anything."

"Yes! Why?"

"I think you are so smart and brave, you should be fearless."

"I'm not smart, and I'm not brave."

"What are you afraid of? You tell me."

"I'm afraid of losing."

"One of the true meanings of life is to have something while losing it."

"... "

"Afraid of losing what?"

"I am most afraid of losing two things. I am afraid of losing my life and my original happiness." Mu Hanchan said.

He added: "Simply put, I am afraid of death, and I am also afraid of encountering misfortune."

"So you never go to the ice on the river in winter?"

"Correct."

"You don't want to listen to me and go to cultivate immortals?"

"Yes."

"Then what type of feeling do you have for her? Friendship, or just affection?"

Mu Hanchan said, "None."

"what is that?"

Mu Hanchan thought for a while and said, "I think it should be the legendary love."

"..." The old man was silent.

"Do you believe it?" Mu Hanchan asked.

"I believe."

"why?"

"Because you don't look like a child at all, so it's normal to have and produce emotions that don't belong to a child."

"Then what should I do? Or how can I satisfy my emotions?"

The old man was silent for a while, and said: "You don't know, when you hear about love, nine out of ten are sad?"

Mu Hanchan froze for a moment, and said, "Even so, I want to be the one who is not sad."

"What if you can't in this lifetime?"

"... "

"The problem is that she is still a child, and I don't know if her feelings for you have formed, and whether it is right or not." The old man said.

Then he said: "I think you have three choices, one is to take the initiative, the other is to wait, and the third is to be promoted by others or heaven."

"Then I'll choose the second one, and I'll wait."

"Why is that? Don't you ask your old friend if I can help you?"

"I don't like asking random people for help."

"Then why don't you take the initiative?"

"I'm afraid that my initiative will ruin the unformed relationship."

"You're afraid she doesn't like you."

"Well, yes. There is also age. I heard from the old people in the village that children on the grasslands must be at least 12 years old before they can get married. How old am I and how old is she?"

At Lin Mengge's home, her mother said to her: "Gege, the Chinese New Year will be in half a month. During this period, you should stay at home and don't go out to play around."

"what?"

"Let me explain that you just stay at home and don't go out to play." Her mother repeated it again.

Lin Mengge's eyes dimmed, and she said, "Okay, mother. But I want to go out in the afternoon. Can I?"

"Why?" her mother wondered.

Lin Mengge did not answer.

"Okay, then remember to come back at night."

"Yes." Lin Mengge replied obediently.

As a result, her mother became even more strange, as if her daughter had recently changed, becoming more obedient.Of course this is good, but it is not quite normal.

"This problem really can't be solved, but you can follow the customs in your village and try to make a young marriage with her." The old man said.

But Mu Hanchan said: "Can parents agree? Can her parents agree? How to decide? What if she doesn't want to in the future? Will we be together forever?"

It's just that the old man didn't answer him.

"I want to go back."

"Ok."

Just when Mu Hanchan turned around, the old man asked: "Do you really not consider what I said to be a cultivator?"

"It's better!" Mu Hanchan said.

"why?"

"You have to ask every time, didn't I just say it! I don't think I'm suitable to be a cultivator. The world of cultivating immortals you mentioned, with its cruel struggles and intrigues, is not the world I want to enter at all. Don't like it either."

"Then why are there still so many people who go forward and continue to be immortal cultivators regardless of their own lives?"

"That's their pursuit, not mine."

"What do you like?"

"A peaceful, happy and secure life."

Lin Mengge returned to the woods again, looking at the figure of an eagle drawn by Mu Hanchan with a branch, waiting for Mu Hanchan.

She wanted to tell him that she would not be able to come to play with him in the next two weeks, and hoped that he would not worry.It's just that I didn't see him from noon to evening.

During this period, she wanted to go to Mu Hanchan's house several times to look for him, but saw the big dog in front of the door many times, and finally flinched.

That dog is a hunting dog, a very ferocious hunting dog that can easily kill three wolves.

Mu Huanshan is a hunter and can do carpentry.Mu Hanchan is the son of Orion and Carpenter, but he has no spiritual roots.It is the spiritual root that has become the capital of immortal cultivation by the immortal cultivation world.

"Don't you desire to live forever?"

"Birth, old age, sickness and death, the law of heaven, why do you want to live forever? This is what you told me when I asked you."

"Then if I tell you that joys and sorrows are normal, will you feel lost?"

"If you're talking about me and her, I'll feel lost."

"Why are you always worried about you and her? Don't you think about your own destiny first and plan your own life?"

"For me now, she is my only source of happiness."

"But you were not made for her, even if she was made for you."

"Also, if you don't find a truly compatible soul, your happiness from love will not last forever, you know that." The old man added.

Mu Hanchan remained silent, because he couldn't go beyond his feelings to pursue a compatible soul.Maybe the heart he feels compatible with is based on feelings.

"You go to cultivate immortals. I can send you to the magic altar. It is the place with the most abundant resources in the entire immortal cultivating world. If you are lucky, you may be able to get the heavenly class exercises. Even if you can't, it can completely solve your problem of not having spiritual roots. .”

But Mu Hanchan still refused because he didn't want to leave Lin Mengge.

He talked with the immortal cultivator from noon to evening, and finally went home.He deliberately passed by the woods, as if to relive the warmth of the morning, but Lin Mengge had already waited anxiously, and went home too.

On the second day, Mu Hanchan was still waiting for Lin Mengge to come to play with him in the grove, but he didn't wait in the end.

On the third day, Mu Hanchan was still like this, but the result still didn't come.

On the fourth day, Mu Hanchan couldn't wait any longer, and waited by the Broken Bridge from morning till night, and didn't even eat at noon, but in the end, he didn't even see anyone.

Mu Hanchan was disappointed with disappointment, and panic with disappointment. The panic was because he couldn't see Lin Mengge, and he didn't know why she didn't come to him anymore.He wanted to cross the bridge several times to find Lin Mengge, but he finally stopped when he thought of his parents telling him not to cross the river.

Under the influence of panic and loss, Mu Hanchan became more and more uneasy, and finally the uneasiness prompted him to seek help from his mother.

"mother!"

"What's the matter? Cicada." A gentle, virtuous, tall, beautiful and intelligent woman asked.

Mu Hanchan said, "I want to ask you one thing."

"Why did you ask me? What happened to you?"

"I like a girl very much, but she suddenly stopped looking for me these two days, and I don't know why. I would like to ask you to allow me to cross the river to find her." Mu Hanchan said.
