Uncovering this truth is no less than opening a door to a new world in front of Chen Xiao. He no longer has to be unwilling and look at those who can cultivate immortals with envy. He can create a brand new cultivation system by himself.
However, this new method has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it allows him to embark on the path of cultivating immortals with this body that has no spiritual talent. The disadvantage is that he does not know whether this path will eventually lead to heaven or hell.
However, everything has risks. To walk a path that no one has walked before, one must have the courage to take risks. And what Chen Xiao lacks the most is courage.
After sitting for a while and calming down, Chen Xiao was able to think about other questions. That is, why could he absorb these lucks, but not in his previous life?
Before today, the only two things he knew that could cause aura fluctuations were Feng Shui instruments with aura and immortal cultivators. Ordinary people, whether in the previous life or this life, did not have such a skill. Based on this conclusion, those who could attract luck into the body would definitely not be ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao raised his hand and pressed his chest in a daze.
He was dead in his previous life, but somehow he changed time and space and came to this strange world, possessing the body of this young man who also died. Such a bizarre experience made it impossible for him to be an "ordinary" person.
He didn't realize this before because he was busy adapting to this new world and learning the survival skills here. That's why he ignored such an obvious conclusion and thought he would become one of the millions of mortals in Dai Country.
Chen Xiao thought thoughtfully, Hanwa was just an ordinary boy, born, grew up, lived and died in this world in an ordinary way. What was different was that he came from another world, and it must be his possession that caused some invisible changes in this body.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao laughed. There was a most obvious feature, how could he forget it.
A young man who grew up doing odd jobs in a business team, and then learned martial arts from a martial arts master. Years of hard work and exercise made his body strong and full of solid muscles. Even if he was injured, he would recover quickly because of his young body.
However, he was such a heavy eater, but he didn't gain any weight in a few months. Not only did he not gain any weight, but his muscles, which originally looked like those of an athletic body, gradually degenerated, and he became more and more like his previous life's thin body. His hands, feet, and limbs, which had become rough due to labor and had thick joints, also slowly returned to being smooth and normal.
This was not something he could do. Perhaps there was something else in his body that caused this change. It was because of this unknown that he frequently felt hungry. It was also because of this unknown that his body became able to absorb luck.
As for why he was always hungry, it might be because this unknown thing also needed energy. And luck could also be used as a kind of energy. After being absorbed by the unknown thing, he would temporarily return to the appetite of an ordinary person and no longer needed to eat extra food.
In this way, the answer to the question is very obvious. Just like in the previous life, ordinary people can only passively receive luck, but here it is not him who actively absorbs luck, but the unknown existence in his body.
There was an unknown object in his body, but Chen Xiao did not feel scared or uneasy. Because he believed in his intuition and judgment, this unknown must be related to his transformation to this time and space, or it was because of this unknown object that he was able to come back to life. The unknown object was equivalent to saving his life, so even if there was any danger, he would face it calmly.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand now, one day, he will figure it out. After figuring this out, Chen Xiao's mind was expanded. He felt calmer than ever since he came here. His mind also became refreshed, and his heart felt as if it had broken free of some shackles, and was particularly peaceful.
Just as Chen Xiao was immersed in this mysterious state of mind, someone shouted into the yard: "Is anyone home?"
Chen Xiao looked up at the sky in surprise. The sun, which was the source of light during the day, had disappeared, and the sky was filled with the leaden gray that was unique to sunset. During this time, every household was preparing for dinner, and few people would come out to visit each other.
Chen Xiao stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, and shouted, "Someone is here. Who is it?" As he spoke, he walked around the screen wall at the entrance and came to the front door.
A fat auntie was standing outside the door. When she saw Chen Xiao, her eyes lit up and she immediately said, "Young man Chen, I have something to talk to you about." This auntie was Chen Xiao's neighbor. Her surname was Huang, and everyone used to call her Auntie Huang. She was the one who lent Chen Xiao the basin and rag. She was very enthusiastic. When she learned that Chen Xiao wanted to clean the house, she pointed out the location of the well to him.
Chen Xiao had a good impression of this kind neighbor lady. So he invited her to the main hall. However, he was so busy today that he even had pre-packaged steamed dumplings for lunch and had no time to boil water. Naturally, there was no hot water, so he poured a bowl of tea for the guest.
Chen Xiao sat in the main seat in the living room, looking at Aunt Huang who was sitting in the guest seat apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I was busy today and didn't boil water. It's my fault for not offering you a cup of hot tea."
Aunt Huang didn't care whether there was hot tea or not. Instead, she continued the topic and said, "You are the only one in such a big family. You must be too busy to handle everything. There are things to do everywhere, both inside and outside the house."
Chen Xiao smiled politely: "Not bad."
Three large rooms, plus a small yard, every once in a while, just cleaning it up takes a lot of energy. Chen Xiao only has a rest once every ten days, so of course he won't waste his rare rest time on work. So, he hired a maid to do it. The maid comes every three days, washes the dirty clothes, wipes the furniture, dusts the walls, and sweeps the floor.
Aunt Huang looked at Chen Xiao's face and said, "I see you don't seem to cook at home on weekdays?"
Chen Xiao nodded: "Yes. If I eat enough, my whole family will not be hungry. We can have a meal anywhere."
Aunt Huang shook her head: "You can't say that. Look at your home, it's empty. You work hard outside all day to earn money, and when you come home, no one wants to talk to you to cheer you up. How can this work!"
When Chen Xiao heard this, he immediately had a bad feeling.
"When I first saw you, I thought you were a handsome young man. It's just not easy for you to live alone and no one cares about you." Then, Aunt Huang showed a happy expression and said to Chen Xiao in a mysterious way, "Guess what? Today, people came to me to ask about you. It's because we live close to each other and you don't even have a woman in your family. You didn't see it. There were three or four people on our street!"
Chen Xiao listened, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his back. He said dryly: "Well... wait a minute, it's a rare occasion for you to come to my house, and I would be too rude if I didn't treat you to a cup of tea." After that, Chen Xiao stood up, ran out of the room like a whirlwind, and hid in the kitchen.
This Aunt Huang actually wanted to propose marriage to him! In his 28 years of life, this was the first time Chen Xiao had encountered such a situation, and he immediately felt a headache.
Chen Xiao hid, and Aunt Huang thought he was shy, so she followed him to the kitchen without any hesitation. She stood outside the door and told him who had come to ask about their families today, which family had a daughter, and what the family conditions were like. When the water was boiled, the two returned to the main room without stopping.
After Aunt Huang finished speaking, she said earnestly to Chen Xiao, who had been silent the whole time, "I see that you are not young anymore, and it's time to arrange your marriage. If you don't mind, Aunt Huang is willing to take care of it for you, and you can just wait to be the groom peacefully. I don't need anything from you, just be a matchmaker." At this point, she picked up the tea that was a little cold and took a big sip, "When you have a wife in the future, there will be ready-made meals waiting for you when you return home, and you don't have to boil water yourself. Everything inside and outside will be taken care of for you, so you can earn money outside with peace of mind. Men are responsible for the outside world, and women are responsible for the inside world, that's the truth."
Chen Xiao pulled the corner of his mouth and said nothing. He didn't want to get married. Even if there was a day of marriage in the future, he wouldn't bring his wife back to work and serve him. If it was just for this, he could just find a servant.
Chen Xiao didn't blame Aunt Huang for her abrupt enthusiasm. In fact, the feng shui he arranged in this courtyard began to take effect.
If he doesn't have parents, he won't have brothers or sisters. If he wants to have more children, he has to marry a wife. A wife is also considered a child. And as long as this wife is married into the family, he is guaranteed to have two children in three years. This is the effect, awesome.
Even if Chen Xiao resisted silently the whole time, Aunt Huang would not give up easily. Chen Xiao had a broad forehead and a pointed jaw, a typical oval face. Thick eyebrows, almond eyes, and a straight nose. The best thing about him was his mouth. His upper lip was like a bow, his lower lip was full, and his mouth corners were deep, and they would curl up even when he was not smiling. His eyes were big, his eyes were clear, and he looked refreshed and energetic, which made people like him very much.
Even though Aunt Huang already has grandchildren, she still likes to see handsome guys! Just for this little face, she has to help him find a suitable marriage.
For the first time, Chen Xiao felt that his good Feng Shui arrangement was a mistake. If he hadn't been reluctant to give up half a year's rent and three months' deposit, he would have wanted to stop living here.
After finally sending Aunt Huang away, Chen Xiao went out to have dinner. While eating the delicious hot noodle soup, he thought, it's nice to have someone cook for you, but it can't be at the cost of lifelong happiness. Giving up all the delicacies in the world and only eating the cooking of one person. How upset he must be!
All I can say is that Chen Xiao’s love experience at this moment is still very blank.
