Holy Soul Village.
To the east of the village, there is a spacious and imposing courtyard.
The soft, fair-skinned little girl sat under a jujube tree, eating sweet bean cake and swinging her legs. She looked very well-behaved and cute.
"Emily Jiang, go to the blacksmith shop for dad and ask your uncle Tang to make a long-handled axe and a three-foot-long rake for our family."
A tall and strong man walked out from the side hall, stroked the girl's head with his rough hand, and took out two silver coins from his pocket.
"Hmm..." The girl stuffed the remaining half of the bean cake into her mouth, nodded, and said in a soft and cute voice, "Okay, Dad."
"Emily Jiang is the best..."
Watching his little daughter skipping out of the house, her twin ponytails swinging like a happy little rabbit, the man couldn't help but smile with a loving face.
This is the tenth day that Emily Jiang has come to the Holy Soul Village.
Ten days ago, she was still a little junior sister of Xuannv Sect. Although her eight extraordinary meridians were blocked and she could not practice, she was loved by her master because of her young age and cheerful personality.
Master often said, "Emily Jiang is the happy pill of our sect. With Emily Jiang around, I can eat two more bowls of rice every day."
"When we cultivate immortality, we cultivate inner freedom. From this perspective, Emily Jiang has already reached the state of great success."
"Although Emily Jiang's meridians and bones are a little weak, she is very talented in growing vegetables and flowers. Look at the back mountain..."
Emily Jiang once suspected that she was her master's daughter. Otherwise, how could she say such an outrageous compliment?
It was also because of this that she aroused the dissatisfaction and resentment of several fellow sisters.
"You are a piece of crap. You are already thirteen years old, right? You can't even gather the Qi into your Dantian. If you tell others about it, it will make people laugh to death!"
"You have brought shame to our Xuannv Sect! I don't know how you can still smile every day!"
"I'm afraid he's not a fool..."
"Hehehe, useless fool Emily Jiang..."
After all, Emily Jiang is still young and her mind is not mature yet. When provoked by several senior sisters, she couldn't help but show off and wanted to prove herself.
So he forced himself to condense the Qi in his Dantian and circulate the small circulation of Qi. However, when the Qi was halfway through, it suddenly lost control and started running around in his body.
Emily Jiang, a junior sister of Xuannv Sect, had her meridians running backwards and hanged herself on a southeast branch.
But the hanging didn't seem to be too painful.
It was like she had fallen asleep and when she woke up, she became the youngest daughter of the Jiang family in Shenghun Village.
Only six years old.
A small and soft body.
Emily Jiang felt that she was quite lucky. When she was in the sect, she was the most favored little disciple. After coming to the Holy Soul Village, she became the pampered jewel in the Jiang family.
No matter where you go, you can be a carefree salted fish.
The only thing that made her sad was her master...
I don't know how sad she is right now. She may not be able to eat or sleep...
Thinking of this, my eyes became red and my nose felt sore.
Picking at the patterns on the silver coin with her fingers, Emily Jiang came all the way to the Tang family in the west of the village.
This may be the most dilapidated house in the village.
There were three adobe houses, and a wooden sign with a hammer painted on it was hung on the roof of the middle one.
"Ding ding ding ding---" The fast and steady sound of blacksmithing came from the house.
"Uncle Tang---" Emily Jiang stood outside the door, stretching her little head to look inside, "Uncle, my father wants you to make two farm tools."
The room was a little dark.
The burly man sat in front of the fire, pulling the bellows with one hand and swinging the hammer with the other. Without even looking up, he asked in a rough voice, "What are you hitting?"
"A long-handled axe and a three-foot-long rake." Emily Jiang was a little afraid of the black-faced man. After a pause, she stretched out her hand and said, "Here, here's the money."
The man still didn't look up, "Ding ding ding ding---"
Emily Jiang smelled a strong smell of alcohol and was hesitating whether to go in when she saw a thin boy walking out.
"A long-handled axe and a three-foot rake won't cost that much." The boy has short black hair, wheat-colored skin, and a clean, bright smile.
"Oh... then this..." Emily Jiang looked at the palm of her hand.
The original owner was only six years old and had been brought up in a pampered environment. He did not have a clear concept of prices and currency, so he was a little confused when he heard this.
"That's enough." Seeing her confused look, the boy's eyes curved and he picked up a silver coin from her white little hand.
"Ah?" Emily Jiang blinked.
Just one Gintama coin? Then why did dad give me one more?
"Jason Tang, are you busy?" an old voice sounded behind him.
Emily Jiang turned around and saw a tall and thin old man with a vigorous spirit.
"Hello, Grandpa Old Samuel." The little baby called out in a soft and obedient voice.
"Oh, Xiao Emily Jiang is here too..." As soon as Old Samuel saw the little girl, he smiled brightly, touched her head lovingly, and asked, "Is Xiao Emily Jiang feeling better?"
"Grandpa, I'm fine now. I can help dad with the work." Emily Jiang's eyes sparkled, and when she smiled, two pointed little fangs were exposed.
The original owner was sick since birth and was weak. She was treated as a treasure by her family and was held carefully in their hands.
I finally raised him to six years old, but half a month ago, he got caught in the rain and fell seriously ill, and had to stay in bed for several days.
The illness is now cured and he looks much more energetic than before.
"Okay, okay." Old Samuel nodded with a smile, and then looked at the boy next to him, "Xiao San and Mu Mu are almost six years old, right? It's time for them to participate in this year's awakening ceremony."
Mu (homonymous with Mu), several little cuties asked about the pronunciation of this word, so let’s mark it down. Alfalfa is a kind of grass with very tenacious vitality.
