Chapter 1
As the sun was setting, the children playing by the earth bridge were all going home to eat, but there was only a thin figure looking at the sky stubbornly, as if thinking about something.

"Jiang Li! You haven't come back to cook, what are you thinking?" Mrs. Zhang's harsh voice interrupted her thoughts.

That's right, what was I expecting? Both her parents died of illness when she was two years old. Her grandparents still protected her at first, but they couldn't do what she wanted in the past few years.

She is over ten years old, and has been living with her uncle and aunt for more than eight years. She has not had a full meal for so many years, and it is a blessing to be alive.

Mrs. Zhang is very mean, even if her grandparents can only sleep in thatched huts, how can they treat her as a fool?
However, she is able to do housework now, and Mrs. Zhang points at herself in everything, so she can no longer beat her like he did when she was a child.

Thinking of what he overheard today, Jiang Li felt chills in his heart. No matter how forbearing he was, Mrs. Zhang and her natal sister-in-law were still planning to sell her to fill a house for a widower in the town.

What she did was only five taels of silver, but what could she do?

The grandparents are powerless and can't protect her. The uncle is a strict wife, and he is afraid that Mrs. Zhang will die. No one can change what Mrs. Zhang decides.

Her footsteps were hasty, no matter how unwilling she was, it was in vain. Given her age, escaping alone would be a dead end.

Without a guide, she can't even get out of the town, she has no way out, she can only live from day to day, and when Zhang really sells her, she will die to show her ambition!
Perhaps the plot with her natal sister-in-law made Mrs. Zhang happy today, so she didn't delve into Jiang Li and dared to delay the cooking time.

Jiang Li was busy working in the kitchen alone, while his cousin Jiang Zhi, who was the same age, was sitting at the door with her younger brother Jiang Tao in her arms, mocking Jiang Li from time to time.

Mr. Jiang once learned a few words with the accountant in the village, so the names of the children in the family are more elegant than those of other families. At least they are not big girls or Erniu.

But he knew those two characters, but he didn't help the Jiang family change their class, and they still planed food in the ground.

The land for each household is only so small, and when there are more people in the family, the rations will not be enough. Jiang Li's existence naturally hinders Zhang's eyes.

Zhang's eagerness to sell Jiang Li was mainly because she was pregnant again, and the family couldn't afford it after the birth.

When eating, Jiang Li is naturally only worthy of eating leftovers. After she finished eating and washed the pots and dishes, everyone in the Jiang family fell asleep.

Looking at the moonlit night sky with few stars, she unknowingly walked to the edge of the big haystack at the head of the village.

This is the place where the forage is concentrated in the village. The haystack is huge. She dug a hole here before and hid in it to rest. It is much more comfortable than in the thatched hut that Mrs. Zhang arranged for her. At least there is no smell of pig feces. .

She got into the hole, closed her eyes and meditated, her small body curled up into a ball.

But at this moment, a bang was heard suddenly, as if something had hit the ground.

Before she got up to check, there were two voices, followed by the voices of two men talking.

"San Chaozi! You, a casual cultivator, dare to compete with us for the fiery red ginseng. Since you are overconfident, we will help you!"

"Xu Youqing! The two of you brothers are just outer disciples of the Hengyue Sect, so you bully others. The first-order fire beast I defeated alone, the fire red ginseng is my spoils of war. How can I compete with you?"

"If you have something to say, go to the underworld and say it! You are unlucky to meet our brother today!"

The Xu family brothers no longer concealed themselves, and blatantly killed people and seized treasures.

San Chaozi closed his eyes in despair, today he was plotted against by a villain and ended up in this mortal village, he was also to blame for his carelessness.

Originally, Sanchaozi's fourth level of Qi refining was not afraid of the Xu family brothers at all, they were only at the third level of Qi refining, and only at the fourth level of Qi refining could he fly with a sword, so he knew the difference between the third level and the fourth level.

But they attacked him when he was exhausted from the bloody battle with the first-order fire beasts, and he was really powerless to resist.

After a sound of magic colliding, Jiang Li suddenly heard a cry of pain, she thought to herself, that person is still dead.

There is still a little distance from the village here, otherwise the villagers will definitely be attracted. Fortunately, the process is not too long, and the sound does not travel too far.

The voices outside quickly stopped, but Jiang Li didn't dare to move rashly at all. Although she couldn't understand what those people were saying, she knew that if she was found out, she would definitely die.

She waited for nearly an hour and dared not go out until she was sure that there was no one outside.

"Huh? That person left too?"

I thought I would see a dead body, but when she came out, the outside was clean, as if it was all her auditory hallucinations just now.

Jiang Li looked carefully, but still couldn't see anything, so he gave up and walked slowly back to the grass shed in front of Jiang's house.

Grandparents slept in the shed near the kitchen, and hers was next to the pigsty.

The moment she walked in, she saw a dusty cloth bag on the hay where she slept.

what is this?
But only saw a person coming out from the dark, he clutched his chest and said.

"Little boy! You should have heard it just now. I was murdered by a traitor, and now I can't recover. It's just that I don't want to be reconciled. Since you met, it means that you and I are destined. Would you like to help me hand over this bag to me?" My best friend, Nong Chaosheng, works in Qingyunshanfang City, you just need to go find him and tell him that I was assassinated by Brother Xu Youqing, and the task will be considered complete."

Bu Dai turned out to belong to Sanchao Zi. During the fight, he took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and threw out fiery red ginseng to divert the opponent's attention. He escaped with a teleportation talisman.

It's just that Xu Youqing and his brothers fought together in the end. Although he didn't fall on the spot, he was doomed to die.

Knowing that he couldn't escape very far, he simply made a feint and returned to the place where he just fought.

But just happened to bump into Jiang Li who crawled out of the haystack.

San Chaozi felt that the boy was very clever, he was able to hide calmly in the situation just now, and he was able to wait for so long before coming out to check, which shows that he is mature and reliable.

He also had no other choice, he had no time to find someone else, so he could only pin his hopes on this mortal child.

"How...how should I go?" Jiang Li was a little apprehensive, but he also had a bold idea.

Although it was the first time she saw this kind of person who seemed to have great ability, her first reaction was not fear, because she knew that this might be an opportunity, and whether she could get rid of the fate of being betrayed depended on whether this person could help her Get out of this place.

San Chaozi took out his savings, a few low-grade spirit stones, dozens of spirit beads, and the gold and silver he left in the mortal world in his early years, and he gave this little girl all his brains.

"You can hire a carriage and head east from here. It takes about half a month to arrive at the foot of Qingyun Mountain. I happen to have extra preparations for the guides you need in the world. You just need to go to Qingyun Mountain and find Nong Chaosheng in Fangshi. Give him my storage bag, explain the reason, and then you can come back. Whether I give you gold or silver, Lingshi Lingzhu, it is counted as a thank you gift. In addition, I will also give you this book on the introduction of immortal cultivation. If you are lucky enough to be able to enter the fairyland, it is also your good luck."

After San Chaozi finished speaking, without waiting for Jiang Li's response, he exhausted his last bit of energy and left Jiang's house. He had no time left.

You must go in the opposite direction, and brothers Xu Youqing must not be aware of the child.

Jiang Li silently calculated in her mind, she walked from the village to the town just at dawn, at that time she lied that she would go to Qingyun Mountain to seek refuge with relatives, to find a carriage, gold and silver could not be exposed, she had to exchange some copper coins first.

Don't look at her young, but it is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and she is methodical in doing things.

Gently kowtowing three times to her grandparents' thatched hut, she was determined not to return, wondering if she would see her grandparents again in this life?
Gold and silver cannot be left to grandparents. If they have gold and silver, they will be exploited by Mrs. Zhang. It is better to wait for her to come back and pick them up when she has the ability.

Just like that, the little man packed two ragged clothes, rolled them up into a bundle and carried them on his back, and resolutely embarked on the road of looking for the immortal cultivator.

 I don't know if anyone still reads the traditional cultivating immortals? ?
