Chapter 1 Chu Ning, do you want to eat grass?
Sanqing Mountain is the most beautiful mountain in Jiangnan.
Walk one hundred and twenty steps west from the southern mountain peak, and you can hear the sound of water through the bamboo grove, like the sound of jade pendants, which makes you happy.
We cut some bamboos to make a path and saw a small pond below with very clear water.
The bottom is made entirely of stone. Near the shore, the stone bottom rolls up to form islets, islands, reefs and rocks.
Green trees and green vines, covered with webs, swaying and hanging.
Go further and you will see a mountain.
There is a small opening in the mountain, as if there is light.
When entering through the mouth, it is very narrow at first, but then it becomes passable.
After walking a few dozen steps, the view suddenly opened up and there lived a snake, nine feet and seven feet long...
Then he ran away.
If you come across a Taoist temple on the road, stop.
"Help, open the door!"
Chu Ning knocked on the iron bell on the Taoist temple door.
He was just hiking to relax, thinking that Sanqing Mountain was so large that there was no need to follow the developed tourist routes. He never expected to encounter a giant snake.
Along the way, one of his shoes fell off, his clothes were pierced by thorns, and his cell phone fell to the ground in shock when he saw a giant snake in the cave.
After much difficulty, he saw a Taoist temple and immediately knocked on the door for help.
After a long time, he heard some movement behind the door. The gate of the Taoist temple was pushed open, and a young Taoist boy appeared at the door.
"Who are you?"
The Taoist boy's long hair was held up with a Taoist hairpin and a sky-blue Taoist scarf was tied on top. His eyes were bright and lively.
Chu Ning took one step towards the Taoist temple, but the Taoist boy gave him a light push. Chu Ning felt a huge force hitting him and he actually staggered back a few steps.
"Little Taoist priest, there is a big snake behind us. Let me in quickly, close the door and call the police."
Chu Ning was pushed down by a little Taoist boy, but he didn't think too much about it. He just thought that he was exhausted from running for too long.
"There is no big snake."
"Really, there is one, chasing me closely..."
Chu Ning was afraid that the little Taoist boy would not believe him, so he pointed to the clothes on his body that were pierced by the thorns on the mountain. He didn't feel anything before, but when he stopped, he immediately felt the burning pain from the skin scratched by the thorns.
"No loud noises are allowed in front of the Taoist temple. Please leave quickly."
The little Taoist boy stepped back and was about to close the door. Chu Ning stretched out his hand to block the door and was a little angry: "How can you cultivators be so cold-blooded and watch someone die without helping?"
"There is no big snake, so don't make trouble."
"How come there isn't one?"
Chu Ning looked back and exclaimed in surprise. The giant snake on the mountain road behind him had disappeared.
"Isn't he hiding?"
Just as Chu Ning was muttering, the little Taoist boy slammed the door shut.
Chu Ning: ...
About a minute later, the little Taoist boy came back, opened the door, and handed a peach to Chu Ning.
"Eat this peach and go back down the mountain the same way you came."
Chu Ning, who was already tired from running, said "thank you", took the peach and started eating it.
The peach juice went into his mouth, with a sweet saliva. Chu Ning swore that he had never eaten such delicious peaches in his life.
"Thank you, little Taoist priest. I wonder if you can give me another one to quench my thirst."
The little Taoist boy looked at Chu Ning deeply, turned around and walked into the Taoist temple. This time the door was not closed, but Chu Ning did not go in while the little Taoist was away.
He thought that the young Taoist priest didn't let him in because the masters of the Taoist temple were not there, and the young Taoist priest had been instructed by the masters not to let strangers in.
It still took a minute for the little Taoist boy to bring out the peaches. Chu Ning thanked him again, but this time he ate a little slower.
After eating the peaches, Chu Ning looked at the tightly closed Taoist door and did not rest. For some reason, after eating the two peaches, he felt that his strength had recovered.
Although the young Taoist priest told him to go down the mountain the same way he came, Chu Ning did not plan to do so in case the giant snake was waiting for him on the road.
He had never seen such a big snake in his life. Maybe it was a spirit.
The Taoist temple is located on the mountainside, and Chu Ning chose to go down the mountain from the other side.
On the way down the mountain, Chu Ning also looked helpless.
At the age of 30, he led the company to go public and achieved financial freedom. Every day, apart from checking the stocks, he would date some female internet celebrities.
A poor man can only observe the appearance, but he can understand the way.
But the more he played, the more bored Chu Ning felt.
Especially those big anchors with graceful figures, their fans may not know, but he knows too well that they are all bullying their customers by using their power.
He began to get tired of this decadent life. Life is not just about the woman in front of him, but also about the countryside and mountains and rivers.
This time, I wanted to take a different approach and experience the primitive and undeveloped beauty of mountains and rivers, but I never expected to encounter a giant snake.
Facts have proved that it is reliable to play with vulgarity, but it is risky to play with elegance.
After walking carefully for dozens of minutes, Chu Ning breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the fertile fields at the bottom of the mountain right in front of him.
However, at this moment, a black shadow flew up from the fertile field, and a bloody mouth swallowed him.
"I really fucked you."
Chu Ning never thought that this giant snake would be lying in ambush in the fertile fields.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
What the hell do I have against you? I'm not Xu Xian, I've never fucked you.
At the last moment of his life, Chu Ning knew he couldn't escape, so he gritted his teeth and slid to make a last effort.
Then he died.
…
…
"Where am I?"
Chu Ning opened his eyes dazedly and looked around. Pictures of extremely dilapidated old houses with refrigerators on them that appeared on the Internet suddenly emerged in his mind.
The house was made of yellow mud, with a straw raincoat hanging on the wall and an earthen stove on the left side of the wall.
The house is bare!
Chu Ning smelled the quilt covering him, which gave off a musty smell.
Was I rescued and brought home by the villagers down the mountain? The next moment, Chu Ning's mind suddenly filled with a lot of information, and his whole body was spinning.
When Chu Ning regained consciousness, his expression was complicated.
He did not die in the giant snake's mouth, or rather, he died, but it didn't matter. What mattered was that his soul had now been transported to the body of a fifteen-year-old boy.
The boy is also called Chu Ning.
An orphan.
My father was a martial artist and also the chief constable of Daning County.
Unfortunately, the original owner's father had just become a constable and had not been making money for a few years. One day, he drank too much on a pleasure boat and accidentally tripped over his right foot with his left foot, fell into the river and drowned.
Leaving him alone as an only son and an old woman.
The old woman was the great-aunt of the original owner’s father. The original owner’s father was also an orphan and was raised by this great-aunt. After he became a martial artist and a captain of police, he bought a house in the city and brought his great-aunt over.
Since the original owner's father passed away, the original owner has been frail and sickly. Although he is taken care of by this old aunt, the old aunt is also old and can't do much work. The family is getting more and more difficult day by day, and they can only live on some of the savings left by their father.
After five years of living, their savings were almost gone and life began to become difficult. In addition, a drought hit, and many people's fields were barren. Food prices rose and the family had no money to buy food.
The original owner just fainted from hunger and then his soul was possessed by him.
Chu Ning stood up from the bed and walked to the door. He saw that the yard was bare. The only green spot was a hunched figure squatting and pulling up the grass on the ground.
Chu Ning couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart for some reason.
In modern times, we should not trample on the lawn casually in order to protect the grass.
But here, not trampling is for the sake of being able to pull up weeds to fill your stomach one day.
The bare ground is not because there is no grass, but because it has been eaten up.
Perhaps hearing the noise, the hunched figure turned his head, revealing a face full of wrinkles from the wind and frost, with slightly gray temples and chapped lips. But at this moment, the old man said happily, "Xiao Ning, you're awake."
"Um."
"Go back to bed and lie down for a while. You can eat it after old aunt finishes picking the grass and cooking it."
"Aunt, I don't want to eat grass."
The old woman was stunned: "Okay, old aunt knows, I'll pull something else out for Ning'er next time."
