Chapter 1 It’s reasonable for me, with my white hair and white eyes, to become an immortal, right?
Zhaojia Village is located near mountains and rivers. Most people live a self-sufficient life. Occasionally, hunters from the mountains come down and barter with villagers for things from the mountains.
This morning, a cry was heard.
Mrs. Zhao was so frightened that she nearly stabbed the needle into her flesh. She put down her needle and thread and cursed, "What kind of evil is the second son doing again? Who are you crying for so early in the morning?"
The dim earthen house has very poor lighting, making it difficult to see the furnishings inside.
As the head of the family, Zhao Fu said unhappily, "The second son and his wife are crying because you didn't give them money to buy medicine."
Three days ago.
The second son's son slipped and fell into the river and nearly drowned. He still has a high fever and can't wake up.
The noise just now was probably caused by that child...
Zhao Fu rarely felt a trace of pity for his grandson and sighed.
Mrs. Zhao was a little unhappy when she heard this, and she threw the things in her hands and said, "We don't have much money at home. The remaining money has to be used for Lin'er's education. How can we have extra money to buy medicine for that evil star? Isn't it better for him to die?"
My old man had tacitly agreed to this before.
Now, all the blame is put directly on her.
Zhao Fu fell silent, puffing on his pipe and sighing, "It's better if he dies. The second brother's family can have another child in the future."
Mrs. Zhao said nothing.
She said that the second brother and his wife should not try to have another child.
What if another disaster happens?
She had an idea.
Lin Ge'er, the son of the eldest son, is smart and sensible. After this unlucky star is gone, the second son's family will continue to support Lin Ge'er's studies. If Lin Ge'er becomes successful in the future, their whole family will be able to rise with him.
The more she thought about it, the better she felt about this idea, so she immediately got up and went out.
The side room where the second wife lived was even worse than the main house. It was cold in winter and hot in summer, especially the gap in the roof had not been repaired yet. But the couple of the second wife of the Zhao family had no time to take care of these things. They were filled with sadness and despair.
The woman, who was wearing patched clothes and looked as thin as a bag of bones, cried so hard that she almost fainted. She cried, "My brother Yuan."
On the earthen kang, a little boy about five or six years old had his eyes closed, his chest barely rising or falling. Combined with his already pale and bloodless skin, she felt a sense of panic and despair that she could no longer hold on to the child.
Suddenly.
The little boy's eyelashes trembled and he slowly opened his eyes.
Zhao Ping'an and Cui Niang were surprised and unbelievable at first, and then they felt a little panic. Even the only doctor in the village said that the child could not be saved...
The couple didn't dare to think about it anymore. They subconsciously took a light breath and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Yuan..."
The boy named Yuan Ge'er had white hair and white eyes. He looked thin due to years of malnutrition. At first glance, he looked like a mountain goblin, extremely weird.
The boy blinked slowly, looking around the room with unfamiliar eyes.
The room was shabby and gloomy, but everything was in order, and it was obvious that every effort had been made to keep it clean.
Bai Yuan felt a sense of joy after a long time.
He really came to a completely new and strange world.
…
Bai Yuan was born in the core of the abyss. Unlike the others of his kind, he was born with horns of odd colors and strange shapes. His soul is immortal and can absorb various energies in the universe to become stronger.
Death, soul, emotions, various superpowers, and even the pollution that everyone in the universe wants to avoid.
He is ignorant yet powerful, and is feared and dreaded by countless creatures. His peers who can only absorb a single type of energy even want to kill him at all costs, to kill this monster and obtain his incredible and powerful abilities.
Greedy eyes, undisguised malice and crisis are everywhere.
He could only kill these people in return.
Later, these people who called themselves evil spirits were not satisfied with this small world, and they could not defeat Bai Yuan, so they could only grit their teeth and choose to leave the abyss and head to a larger and broader universe.
The abyss is dark, empty and soundless.
Gradually.
He began to feel lonely.
Until a system came and bound him.
Bai Yuan had never seen such a strange ball of energy.
He was surprised and curious, and did not immediately consume the energy that claimed to be the system.
Until the ball of light spoke.
[There are cannon fodders in every world. They are feared, framed, hurt, and despised. Are you willing to travel through time and space to become the wish-maker, change their fate, and fulfill their wishes? ]
He thought of the demons who were also born in the abyss, but no one was willing to accept him, and some even wanted to devour him to gain immortality.
He was quiet for a long time.
cannon fodder?
Are we born to be feared, framed, hurt and rejected?
Bai Yuan felt anger and empathy for the first time in a long time. He said firmly, "I do."
The energy group that called itself the system swept him, passing through the time and space of the universe and arriving at the first mission world. When he entered this very weak body, the voice of the system sounded: [The plot and mission are being transmitted. ]
…
This is an ordinary small, backward and feudal world without any spiritual energy.
Zhaojia Village is located in a remote area of the city.
The people in the village did not know the name of the dynasty, they only cared about the land and food under their feet. In their eyes, the highest official was the county magistrate.
His original name was Zhao Yuan.
He was the second son of Zhao Fu and Lin Cuiniang from the neighboring village.
Zhao Fu and Zhao Po had two sons and one daughter.
The eldest son was named Zhao Pingshun. He spent a lot of money on his marriage, but when it came to the second son's turn, they couldn't even afford a dowry.
Fortunately, Zhao Ping'an was hardworking and taught himself to do simple carpentry work. Cui Niang, who was also hardworking and diligent from the neighboring village, took a liking to him.
Zhao Ping'an also liked Cui Niang very much. In order to marry her, he rebelled against his parents for the first time. He went out early and came back late every day to work, and saved up a year's worth of money as a betrothal gift. Only then did he successfully marry Cui Niang.
Also because of this.
Mrs. Zhao disliked Cui Niang very much. She always relied on her status as a mother-in-law to be harsh to her daughter-in-law, but she was always retorted by Cui Niang. Cui Niang was hardworking, but she was not someone who would not resist being wronged.
Until two years later.
Cui Niang is pregnant.
The young couple waited for a special child with surprise and expectation. The newborn baby didn't have much hair, but the light white hair and a pair of white eyes indicated that he was different from normal children.
The small mountain village was in an uproar.
The ignorant villagers were terrified and rejected the child. In addition, there had been no rain for several months, so everyone thought that the child was a disaster and should be thrown into the mountains to fend for himself.
We can't let him stay in the village!
Several villagers also tried to snatch the child away and intended to drown the child in a pond as a sacrifice to the gods.
The young couple didn't even have time to be afraid of such a strange child. Their first reaction was to protect the child. They said that if anyone dared to touch the child, they would kill the entire family. At worst, no one would live.
Zhao Fu had a certain status and reputation in Zhaojia Village. Even if he hated the disaster born by the second brother's family, he would not watch the villagers kill his grandson.
What's more... Zhao Ping'an is good at carpentry, and Cui Niang is strong and capable of working.
This is also a good opportunity to control the couple.
After Zhao Fu and his wife secretly discussed it, they went to the village chief to make three rules. The villagers were not allowed to touch the child anymore, but at the same time, the child must leave the village when he grew up.
Seeing this, the whole village chose to agree.
They also suggested that the child should not touch anything in the village, so as not to bring bad luck to others.
It’s best to go out less.
Zhao Ping'an and Lin Cuiniang had no choice but to agree. Then, the old couple Zhao Fu talked to the young couple in private, requiring them to hand over all their earnings in the future, and also to support the eldest son's studies and preparation for the imperial examinations.
Although the couple were hardworking, they did not have much skills. They had no way of leaving the village with the baby and could only agree with tears.
This time, five years have passed.
The original body was not liked by his family since he was a child. The whole village excluded him and all the children bullied him. Lin Ge'er, who was only two years older than him, could enjoy the family's pampering, while he had to work at home.
Cui Niang worked hard all year round and did not have enough to eat, and gradually became frighteningly thin.
Zhao Ping'an worked day and night, and soon aged many years, and his body became frighteningly thin.
The villagers sympathized with the couple.
But when I thought about the fact that they suffered all this just to protect that disaster star, I suddenly felt that they were pitiful and deserved it.
The couple has been gritting their teeth and persevering, just hoping that their children will grow up and leave the mountain village with them.
They were reluctant to let their child leave the village alone.
Until a flood occurred.
Some people in the village thought that it was caused by a disaster and secretly reported the matter to the county magistrate. The county magistrate was overjoyed and thought it was a good opportunity for promotion, so he immediately brought people to Zhaojia Village.
He wanted to capture the original body.
Zhao Ping'an and his wife were furious. No matter how much they begged, it was of no use. Seeing their child being taken away, the couple attacked the county magistrate like crazy. The county magistrate was furious and ordered the whole family to be burned to death.
The original body died with eyes open.
He couldn't understand why he became a disaster.
Shouldn't he have lived, as he had implicated his parents? After his death, he was willing to exchange his soul for the price, hoping that his parents could live a good life and that the whole world would stop bullying his family of three.
Bai Yuan slowly clenched his fists, his eyes full of coldness.
Since his birth, he has stumbled and learned to speak, and stumbled and learned how to control energy. He is not as good at scheming and scheming as other demons.
He couldn't figure it out either.
Why did the original body encounter so much malice.
He threw this question to the system, and after a long while, the system replied: [Host, the system doesn’t understand either.]
Bai Yuan's quiet appearance gradually made the couple feel panic and anxiety.
"Brother Yuan, don't scare mom and dad..."
At the same time, a strong emotional energy surges into the body.
Bai Yuan's thoughts were pulled back and there was a hint of confusion in his expression.
This is?
He is a monster who feeds on all energy.
He had experienced much malice, greed, and anger from other beings, even from his own kind.
But I have never absorbed such strange energy.
This is also part of the emotion. He could only understand a word haltingly from the memory of his original body.
--like.
And the fear of losing their children.
They loved their children so much that they even went against the whole world for them and ended up losing their lives.
Bai Yuan was unfamiliar with this kind of feeling.
He pursed his lips, but clumsily and unfamiliarly, gently protecting the thin young couple, his voice was also soft, but firm: "I will protect you."
Such a weak creature that loves children deeply.
He wanted to protect.
The couple were stunned when they heard this.
They had always known that their child was overly sensible, but after falling ill and nearly dying, the first thing he did when he woke up was to comfort his parents and use his small, thin body to protect them.
A moment.
The couple felt unprecedented heartache, self-blame, and anger.
They failed to protect their children.
Zhao Ping'an stood up, his eyes almost bleeding, "Cui Niang, we can't stay in this house anymore, let's go find our parents to divide the family property!"
After the family is divided, at least I can get some money for the child's medical treatment.
I can never let my eldest brother and his family bully my children again.
Lin Cui Niang raised her head when she heard this, her eyes red, all the grievances burst out at this moment, and she cried, "Break up! I would rather live in the mountains than let Yuan Ge'er get into trouble again."
I won't stay in this village anymore.
Lin'er is not a good guy. If he becomes successful in his studies, it is impossible for him to protect Yuan'er as his parents-in-law said.
It was clearly Lin Ge'er who fell into the water this time, but for a child to be so vicious, the eldest brother's family and his parents-in-law are also responsible.
She now wanted to kill them with a knife.
It's funny.
After that incident, the people in the village just excluded Yuan Ge'er, but never really wanted to kill the child. Instead...his own family members actually watched the child die and were unwilling to spend money to buy medicine.
How could she not hate it?
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
“Bang, bang—”
"Second brother, open the door quickly."
Suddenly, a sharp and harsh voice was heard outside the door. The expressions of the couple gradually became calm, but inside they were like a calm volcano that could explode at any time.
Zhao Ping'an wiped away his tears, got off the kang and opened the door.
His thoughts were stronger and more determined than ever before.
This time, we must split up!
