Mortal Cultivation: Portable Space

Night falls, on a summer night, the starry sky is bright and the moon hangs high.

The moonlight shines down on the trees, like coating the leaves with a layer of silver.

When it shines on the ground, it seems to have coated the earth with a layer of silver.

In the green fields, you can still hear cicadas, frogs, and insects from time to time.

There is a small village at the foot of Hulu Mountain. The village is not big, with more than a hundred households. The farmers all fell asleep early after finishing their busy day.

In the village at this time, there was still a hut with lights on. There was no valuable furniture in the house, and the few pieces of furniture were all shabby.

There was a middle-aged woman sitting on the wooden bed in the room. The woman was folding clothes and talking to the little boy beside her.

The little boy looks about eight or nine years old. His face is a little dark and his body is thin. However, his black and white eyes are very smart. He looks very smart at first glance. He is pretty good-looking and wears a gray coat. Shabby clothes.

There was a middle-aged man sitting next to the boy, who must be the boy's father. The middle-aged man had a beard and a simple appearance. He was also talking to the little boy.

There was a little girl sleeping on the wooden bed. She was sleeping soundly and the sound of talking could not wake her up. She looked like she was four or five years old, but the girl was much fairer. Her long eyelashes looked very cute. You can also see some saliva flowing out.

"Xiaofan, your eldest brother will be back tomorrow. This time your eldest brother will come back to take you to the city. You must learn your skills well. Your eldest brother asked someone to find you this job." The middle-aged woman wiped her fingers. He said with tears in his eyes.

The middle-aged man next to him also raised his head at this time, looked at the little boy with loving eyes and said:

"If you encounter any trouble outside, just go to your elder brother. Your parents are not with you, so you can only rely on your elder brother to take care of you."

After the big man finished speaking, he lowered his head again and sighed.

"I know dad and mom"

The little boy's expression was also a little depressed. It was obvious that he was reluctant to leave home and his parents.

The little boy's name is Wu Fan, and everyone in the village calls him Xiaofan. Xiaofan has been smart since he was a child, and is also very popular with the villagers. This village is not big, and most of the people in the village have the surname Wu, so it is also called Wujia Village. Most of the people in the village are Make a living by farming.

There is a big city more than five hundred miles away from Wujiacun, called Qingshan City. Qingshan City is very large and prosperous. Powerful people live there. People in the village also envy those who can live in the city. If a family has someone who can go to the city to work, that family will feel particularly proud.

Wu Fan's eldest brother is named Wu Hao. Wu Hao works in a large blacksmith shop in the city. This time Wu Fan was able to go to the city because his eldest brother asked the boss for help. His parents were very happy when they heard the news. Both sons in the family were very happy. It's a great thing to be able to work in the city, but Wu's father and Wu's mother looked at Wu Fan who was only eight years old. They really couldn't bear to let their children leave them, but they had no choice but to make Wu Fan successful in the future. In order to live a good life, I can only endure the reluctance and let my son leave this small village. Normally, he should start reading and literacy at the age of eight, but there is not even a teacher in the village.

Wu Fan lay sideways on the bed and looked at his sister. He didn't know when he would come back next time. Wu Fan usually loved his sister very much. His sister's name was Wu Xiaoyu. She was five years old this year. She heard that her brother was going to the city. In the past few days, I have been crying and refusing to let my brother go!

Wu Fan was both excited and sad about this departure in his young heart. After all, he was only an eight-year-old child. He had never been away from his parents since he was a child. It was unavoidable to feel sad and reluctant, but He longs for life in the big city! Wu Fan stared at his sister without blinking. After a while, he gradually fell asleep.

The next day, Wu Fan arrived at the entrance of the village early to wait for his eldest brother. Near noon, he saw a carriage driving slowly in the distance. Sitting in the carriage was a sturdy young man who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. The man was unusually tall, also had dark skin, and was wearing a black gown. He was looking at Wu Fan with a smile on his face. Wu Fan took a closer look and saw that he was really the eldest brother. He raised his legs and ran towards the carriage, shouting at the same time. "Brother~" Wu Hao waved vigorously to his younger brother. Soon, Wu Fan ran to the carriage. Wu Hao jumped out of the car, reached out and touched his younger brother's little head and said with a smile:

"Xiao Fan, you've grown a lot in the past two years, haven't you?"

Wu Fan looked up at his elder brother's dark face and said:

"Brother, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you to take me to the city. I heard that the city is very beautiful. Is this true?"

Wu Hao laughed loudly and said: "Of course, the clothes worn by people in the city are all made of silk and satin, and the houses they live in are all pavilions and pavilions. You will know when you get to Qingshan City."

After hearing this, Wu Fan's eyes showed a look of longing. He was even a little impatient now. He wanted to go and see the bustling city and the tall pavilions right away. While he was stunned, Wu Hao had already picked him up. , casually threw him into the car again, and said with a smile:

"Don't think about it. You will follow me into the city in a few days, and you will be able to see it then." After that, the two brothers laughed and drove home.

A quarter of an hour later, at Wu Fan's house, Wu's mother looked at Wu Hao carefully for a while and then said with a smile:

"We haven't seen him in two years, and my son has grown a lot taller. He is as tall as your father."

The middle-aged man on the side laughed loudly after hearing this and said:

"This shows that our son is now an adult."

Five-year-old Wu Xiaoyu hid behind Wu's mother and did not dare to come out. She knew this was her eldest brother, but she was a little unfamiliar with this strong boy. The last time she saw her eldest brother, she was only three years old.

Mother Wu held Wu Hao's palm as big as a leaf fan and said:

"How is your son doing in the city? How is your craft learning going?"

"Don't worry, mother, everything is fine with the child. Now he has left the army and started to forge weapons formally. Now I can get paid every month!" Wu Hao said with a proud look in his eyes and took out the weapon from his arms. A few taels of silver were handed to Wu's mother.

After Wu's mother resisted for a while, she saw that her son insisted on giving it, so she kept the money. Wu's father always had a happy smile on his face. He knew that the son he had raised for so many years could finally lighten a lot of burdens on the family. .

On this day, Wu Fan's home was filled with joy and laughter of reunion. No one knew when the next family reunion would be.

Three days later in the morning, many people came to the village to see him off, and several of Wu Fan's childhood playmates were reluctant to say goodbye to Wu Fan. Wu Hao held the horse and turned back to his parents and said:

"Mom and dad, please go back. Don't send me away. I will take good care of Xiaofan. Don't worry, you two."

Wu Fan's eyes were red and he also said to his parents: "Mom and dad, go back. I will go home to see you when I have time."

Mother Wu looked at the carriage gradually going away, with tears in her eyes.

Wu's father turned his head and glanced at Wu's mother and said, "Child, let's go back. The children are old. It's a good thing to get out of this small village." After saying that, he turned around and walked back with a sigh.

Wu Fan was sitting on the carriage, looking at his father, mother and sister who were gradually going away, as well as many villagers waving goodbye to him. At this moment, tears in his eyes could not be controlled and burst out.

Wu Fan could never have imagined that this departure would bring about earth-shaking changes for him, and he would then embark on a path of cultivating immortality...
