() There is a country called Tianlang on the eastern land of Qianlong Continent. In the Puluo County within the scope of Wild Wolf City, one of the five major cities in Tianlang Kingdom, a large river runs through it. The surging river water brings
The land here is rich for the people, and there is a huge mountain range on the bank of the river. There are many high mountains, and there are hundreds of century-old trees everywhere. Among them, some wild animals poke out their furry heads, and from time to time they hear low roars.
Today is July 17th, the birthday of Nie Fan of the Nie family, one of the five major families in Pulu County. However, the protagonist at this time is not at home but appears in the river wrapped in the Puluo Mountains farther behind the Nie family.
Next to him, he was wearing a purple gown with a black ribbon tied around his waist, and his long black hair was tied into a bun on top of his head.
Yesterday's heavy rain made the river water somewhat turbid, and there was a lot of water vapor and fog all around.
The flowing white mist filled half of the sky, and the blurry sky above the river made it impossible to see the distant places. However, when the scorching sun rose, the distance soon became much more real, and the warm sunshine was accompanied by a sound.
The deafening sound of the surging river water fell on Nie Fan.
Rumble
The roaring river was turbulent, rolling up ten-meter-high waves, one after another, rushing towards the east!
Seeing the surging river rushing forward like a giant dragon roaring, Nie Fan was shocked in his heart, but immediately a worry hung on his still young but unable to hide his handsome face.
It’s a courtesy!
Looking at the endlessly surging river and the green mountains on both sides, Nie Fan suddenly remembered a poem - "The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure, are all gone. The green mountains are still there,
The setting sun is red several times. The white-haired fishermen and woodcutters on the river are used to watching the autumn moon and the spring breeze. They are happy to meet each other over a pot of turbid wine. Many things in ancient and modern times are all talked about with laughter."
"Haha, the ancients are still open-minded. I seem to be a petty person." Nie Fan laughed at himself.
Soon it was noon, and the sun was getting much warmer.
"Hey, it's time to go back. My mother must be looking for me." Nie Fan glanced at the golden sun hanging in the sky, then turned and left, climbing over a small mountain step by step. Half an hour later,
Just as he walked into the back hill of Nie's family, a lady from the distance also appeared in Nie Fan's field of vision.
"Xiao Fan, why are you still here? Don't you know that today is your birthday?" The noble lady took elegant steps, and there was a hint of worry in her eyes when she looked at Nie Fan, but the sound in her voice
There is still a hint of blame in it, but it is very light!
"Mom, why are you here?" Nie Fan felt even more helpless when he looked at the lady walking over at this moment!
"Today is your birthday. Your father and your brother are waiting for you at home. Everyone else has left. Go back quickly." At this time, the lady came over and took Nie Fan's hand, and then she was helpless with a hint of helplessness.
said angrily.
Nie Fan could see the anger and unwillingness in his mother's eyes at this moment.
Nie Fan was originally the proud son of the Nie family. He entered the fourth level of solid matter at the age of twelve. At the age of twelve, you must know that although he is not a master of the fourth level of solid matter, a twelve-year-old child can step into the fourth level of solid matter.
No one in Puluo County can be so strong! With such a status in the Nie family, Nie Fan is like a star among the stars. All the younger generations of the Nie family are eclipsed in front of Nie Fan.
But that year, the arrogant Nie Fan accidentally rushed into the Puluo Mountains connected to the back mountains, and accidentally ate a transparent plant fruit in the Puluo Mountains. From then on, everything changed.
When Nie Fan woke up, it was already two years later!
After entering the mountains at the age of twelve and waking up at the age of fourteen, the cultivation of the fourth solid level was completely gone and he completely became an ordinary person. Even ordinary people can reach the third solid level. But Nie Fan who woke up was completely unable to practice.
, because Nie Fan suffered from a headache.
Whenever I practice, I get a headache and can't practice at all. It's like God is punishing Nie Fan.
As the news spread like wildfire, Nie Fan's status in the Nie family suddenly dropped sharply. Even his father's status also dropped a lot. The Nie family is one of the five major families in Puluo County and has a history of a hundred years. Although its background is not as good as those
The Nie family has been a family for hundreds of years, but the Nie family has always been domineering and strong, just because the Nie family has a powerful head, a strong man who has reached the ninth level of solidity!
Looking at Nie Fan's gloomy eyes, the lady felt pain in her heart.
"Xiao Fan, even if you can't practice, you can still live well. Life is beautiful." Nie Fan's mother gently touched Nie Fan's slender fingers and said meaningfully at the same time.
Nie Fan did not speak but followed his mother step by step towards his residence.
The Nie family is one of the five major families in Puluo County. It goes without saying that the residence of each disciple of the Nie family is luxurious, but Nie Fan's residence is even more luxurious. After all, Nie Fan was the proud son of the Nie family three years ago, and now Nie Fan
Even if it is reduced to a trashy residence, it is still extremely luxurious.
In about fifteen minutes, Nie Fan and his mother returned to their residence. It was much calmer along the way. At this time, many Nie family disciples were training hard in the training ground at noon. Naturally, some maids and servants did not dare to do so.
Pointing at the people of the Nie family, the Nie family is a family with strict rules. There are many rules and they are also very strict!
"Brother, you are finally back," the moment Nie Fan stepped into the living room, a petite figure stumbled toward Nie Fan with excitement.
"Haha," looking at the five-year-old boy Nie Fan in front of him, he showed a rare smile.
"Xiao Wu, come here, wipe the snot from your nose." At this time, the lady beside Nie Fan took out a delicate handkerchief and wiped the snot that accidentally flowed out of the boy who was picked up by Nie Fan at this time.
The boy's eyes never left Nie Fan's face, as if he wanted to see something.
"Xiao Wu, are you hungry?" Nie Fan hugged his brother and walked inside.
This is a living room with an area of one hundred square meters. In the center is a square nanmu dining table with dragons and tigers carved on it. The dishes on it are still lingering with tempting flavors. Sitting directly above the table is a
man.
The moment Nie Fan stepped into the living room, the man raised his head, with a hint of helplessness and unwillingness in his bright eyes.
"Dad," Nie Fan said softly, looking at the man who was still tall even when he sat down.
"Sit down, today is your birthday. All the other congratulators have left. It's time for our family of four to start having dinner," a magnetic and pleasant voice came from the man's slightly thin lips.
spit out from the lips.
"Come, sit down quickly, it's already past noon, you must be hungry." At this time, the lady also smiled and arranged for Nie Fan and Nie Wu to sit down.
Looking at the congratulatory stickers placed on the coffee table not far away, Nie Fan smiled faintly. He still remembered his birthday when he was twelve years old. Even if he naughtily ran out to play for an hour before coming back, he was still full of people.
, there were a lot of gifts, and no one blamed himself for being late in coming back. Even his grandfather, who is now the patriarch of the Nie family, did not blame himself, but now!
"Eat," Nie Fan's father whispered and then took a sip of hot liquor. There was distress and doubt in his eyes. He had been sleeping for two years since he brought Nie Fan back from the coma that year.
What happened to Nie Fan when he woke up? Why did Nie Fan, who was the proud son of the Nie family, suddenly turn into a waste that cannot cultivate!
If Nie Fan continues to develop as a genius, he will definitely be the head of the Nie family in the future, but now that Nie Fan has become a waste, his status has plummeted!
As a father, he still wanted Nie Fan to regain his previous talent, but after three months, he was extremely disappointed!
That unwillingness and helplessness made him very distressed. Even though he didn't drink alcohol, he started to think about it now.
Looking at his father's helpless expression, Nie Fan felt even more unwilling. However, he himself didn't know what happened to him. He only remembered that he swallowed a very tempting fruit and then did nothing.
knew.
At this time, Nie Fan felt very uncomfortable. His parents had never said a word to him. Even though he was still late for his birthday party, his parents still did not blame him!
Soon the tasteless meal was over.
The one who ate the most at the table was five-year-old Nie Wu. He was very happy and ignorant, playing with some gifts that seemed childish to Nie Fan at this time.
After the meal, Nie Fan's family of four did not disperse. "After the ceremony, you are an adult, and you have to decide some things by yourself," Nie Fan's mother said at this time, taking out a delicate gift from her side.
Box.
There is a complex pattern on the box. It is unclear what the specific pattern is. Even the material of the box makes Nie Fan feel like he has never seen it before. It looks like scrap metal, like wood but not wood, with a circle of golden silk.
Things hover above the box.
"What is this?" At this time, Nie Fan's father also looked at the box in his wife's hand with confusion. The box was only the size of a palm.
"This is my dowry. I didn't take it out back then. My mother liked to eat fast and chant Buddha, so she gave me a rosary. Now that Xiaofan is fifteen years old, no one will celebrate his birthday again. So
I want to give this rosary to Xiaofan," Nie Fan's mother smiled and touched the quaint-looking box.
Nie Fan was also moved in his heart. It was a gift from his grandmother to his mother, and now his mother wants to give it to him!
"Come, Xiaofan, come here," Nie Fan's mother said to Nie Fan opposite her.
Nie Fan did not refuse. This was his mother's wish. Once he refused, his mother would be very sad.
Slowly he came to his mother and looked at her quietly. At this time, Nie Fan also felt unwilling. He used to look down on the genius of the Nie family, but now he is a waste. God seems to have broken up with him.
A joke that he couldn't bear.
"Haha," Nie Fan's mother sighed deeply as she looked at Nie Fan, who was now taller than herself. Fifteen years had passed in the blink of an eye.
snap
When the wooden box is opened, a rosary that is only about the size of a thumb and seems to be completely natural is completely purple, like a ball made of amethyst, extremely crystal clear, with circles of purple lines like purple dragons in it.
It seems to be circling, but at this time, the rosary is tied up by a circle of extremely delicate ropes. The black strings are woven into shapes that look so delicate and have a noble temperament.
"Here, put it on." Nie Fan's mother stood up and put the rosary on Nie Fan's neck herself.
The moment the rosary bead was placed on Nie Fan's chest, a chill suddenly spread down from the rosary bead. Then Nie Fan's whole body suddenly trembled, followed by an excruciating pain.
