Chapter 5 Xia Ling'er
I saw two people sitting in the middle above, an old man on the left, a middle-aged man in blue shirt on the right, a patriarch on the left, and his grandfather Liu Feng.
"The one on the right is probably Xiao Su!" Liu Cheng thought. Liu Cheng's grandfather Liu Feng is in his seventies this year, but he still looks extremely strong. On the Tianshu Continent, the average life expectancy is about 100 years. After becoming a Tianshu person, as long as he does not die young, he can live at least 150 years. As for those experts at the level of Tianzun, it is okay to live for hundreds of years.
Next to the clan leader and Xiao Su, there were four seats, where Liu Hao and the other three uncles of Liu Cheng, were all Liu Feng's sons and the next clan leader of the family.
Below the hall, there were other potential disciples of the family sitting on the left, while there were only three people sitting on the right, two men and one woman, all of whom were Xiao Su’s disciples.
Since I called me here, compared to my mother, I had asked Xiao Su to treat me, but I didn't know what the price my mother had spent, Liu Cheng thought.
When the disciples of the family saw Liu Cheng, they all took a look at him at first. Seeing that he was the fifth young master of sickness, they stopped looking at him.
However, Xiao Su's three disciples were more curious about Liu Cheng. Xiao Su's disciples were not old. Both male disciples were young men in their teenage years old, and the woman was about the same age as Liu Cheng.
"You are Liu Cheng?" Xiao Su above looked at Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng bowed slightly and said, "Liu Cheng has met senior!"
Liu Cheng was so polite that everyone present was surprised. This was a five-year-old child. The patriarch Liu Feng also looked at Liu Cheng in surprise. He used to know that Liu Hao had a son who was immortal and sick, so he was too lazy to spend time paying attention to such a grandson who could die at any time. But when he saw him today, the intelligence of this grandson was beyond his expectations.
In this way, Liu Feng and Liu Hao both looked at Xiao Su. If a child with such qualifications can be cured, it would be a good seedling. However, they did not expect much. The lack of the five elements is not an ordinary disease.
Xiao Su stroked the mustache that stroked his chin, and suddenly his eyes looked like lightning, as if he wanted to see through Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng felt that his whole body was locked by a thought, and that thought was looking through him, and he couldn't help but look surprised.
After a moment, Xiao Su sighed and said, "What a pity, the qualifications are super high, but if you lack the five elements, you can't do anything under the help of it!"
Xiao Su's words mean that Liu Cheng was sentenced to death. The rest of the family were too lazy to see Liu Cheng anymore. No matter how good the qualifications were, they were short-lived. What's the use?
When Liu Cheng returned to the room, Wu Guo was waiting anxiously. She also hoped that the man named Xiao Su could cure Liu Cheng.
"Young Master." Wu Guo suppressed her anxiety and said warmly.
Liu Cheng's eyes also showed a hint of sadness, and he shook his head and said, "Sister Wuguo, would you please take me out of the house tomorrow?"
Wu Guo's heart was shocked, and Liu Cheng's expression showed that Xiao Su could not cure Liu Cheng's disease.
However, after the last lesson, Wu Guo hurriedly said, "Young Master, it's not OK to leave the mansion. If you get sick, it's very dangerous."
Liu Cheng smiled slightly and said, "I have not seen this world well since I was born. I don't know when I can last. I want to see this world!" Liu Cheng's tone was very plain, but this was undeniable. Although he had been wandering between life and death over the years and had already tempered his state of mind that was beyond mortals, today's events have more or less hit him. The spark of hope that just gave birth to life was extinguished in such a short period of time, and no one would feel good.
For a moment, Wu Guo didn't know how to reject the young master, and then responded helplessly: "Yes!"
The warm sunshine shone into the Liu Mansion, and a little girl and a little boy walked out of the door and stepped into the front yard.
Next to him, a ten-year-old girl frowned and then said, "Hey, sick girl, why are you staying in the house?"
Liu Cheng looked at her faintly. This person was his sister Liu Yu, but Liu Cheng had no affection for her. If he had any feelings, he could only hate her. He did not have any sympathy for his sick younger brother, but instead made things difficult for him. Such a person can only be described as being rude and hateful.
Wu Guo gave a slight bow. When facing the lady’s question, Liu Cheng refused to answer, but as a maid, she couldn’t do it and said, “Miss Four, the young master wants to go out for a walk today!”
When Liu Yu saw that Liu Cheng ignored him, he was a maid answering his question.
Just as she was about to lose her temper, a boy walked upstairs, who was also in his early teens and said, "Sister Yu, why are you scheming with him? Let's have fun!"
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, Brother Liu Xu, you are an apprentice of the fifth-level Fire Classic Heavenly Book. He is not even as good as an ordinary person."
"Shh!" The words caused a booing sound next to them. The children of the family were so bored that they regarded teasing people as fun.
Liu Cheng clenched his fists, then slowly let go, and smiled indifferently: "Sister Wuguo, let's go!"
When passing by the flower bed in the front yard, Liu Cheng saw a girl about fourteen years old sitting quietly under a willow tree.
"Brother, are you going out?" Liu Jing said.
Liu Cheng replied: "Well, sister, you can walk around more!" Liu Jing is among all the brothers and sisters, and she has a better attitude towards herself, so Liu Cheng is much more kind to her.
Liu Jing smiled slightly and said, "Be careful when going out." She felt extremely regretful in her fifth brother. Because she was suffering from a terminal illness, he might not be able to access Tianshu in this life. Even if he was alive, he would have to be mediocre.
There is a street outside the Liu Mansion. One-third of the shops on the street belong to the Liu family's industries. Of course, the Liu Mansion's industries are far more than these. There are affiliated industries of the Liu family in the entire Xiangcheng and the small towns around Xiangcheng.
This was the first time Liu Cheng went out and saw this ancient street, he couldn't help but feel curious.
This street is similar to the layout of his ancient past, but it is also different. The shops here are not wooden structures, but are completely built with stone materials and bricks from this world. Liu Cheng was most interested in the central square, which has many stalls and many commodities he had never seen before.
Liu Cheng plays with beast horns, magic crystals, magic cores, rare metals, low-level martial arts, magic techniques, etc. from time to time. Although he doesn't buy them, the clothes he wears are good, and those vendors dare not speak much.
"Huh? There is a yard there. Sister Wuguo, let's go and have a look!" Liu Cheng looked up and saw a yard in the west of the street, which seemed to be unowned.
Wu Guo hurriedly said, "Young Master, there is a ghost in that yard, so we should not go."
Liu Cheng looked at her funny, but she didn't expect that she was afraid of ghosts and smiled and said, "Sister Wuguo, if you are honest, you won't dare to invade ghosts, let's go."
Although Wu Guo was afraid, the young master insisted on going, and she had no choice. She couldn't let the young master go alone. After a long time, she was only very clear about the young master's personality and was gentle on the surface, but if he decided to be something, then gods and ghosts could not stop him from doing it.
This ghost yard is indeed quite famous in the city. There is no one within a hundred meters around. Liu Cheng was even more curious and walked in. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid of what the hell. He also watched a lot of ghost movies in his previous life. He knew that those so-called ghosts were mostly bluffing, so he dared to come in boldly.
Liu Cheng carefully watched the garden, with flowers everywhere. It must have been a garden, but it was just deserted for a long time, and now it is overgrown with weeds.
sieve!
Liu Cheng suddenly stopped. Although it was a very small voice, his soul was far stronger than ordinary people. He could still hear the six senses.
"Who?" Liu Chengdao.
When he said this, Wu Guo became even more scared and his voice trembled: "Young Master, let's go quickly, maybe you're a ghost!"
Liu Cheng shook his head and smiled: "Where is the bright world, what the hell is there?"
He was so confident because he had seen a purple figure behind the flowers ten meters ahead of him and walked over.
"Are you?" Liu Cheng was also surprised when he saw the figure of the person clearly. He turned out to be a girl in purple, about five years old. The most important thing was that she was pale and had blood on the corners of her mouth, and she was obviously injured.
When she saw Liu Cheng, she was shocked and was full of vigilance.
Liu Cheng smiled gently and said, "Don't be afraid. I come here occasionally. Why are you injured?"
Perhaps Liu Cheng's smile eliminated her vigilance and said in a weak way: "I was chased..."
Before she finished speaking, her face changed and she said in fear: "They are here!"
Seeing the girl's trembling shoulders, Liu Cheng couldn't bear it and said, "Don't worry, I will try my best to protect you."
He called Wuguo, and the two stood together and blocked the girl.
A moment later, three men in black rushed into the gate of the garden. When they saw Liu Cheng and Wu Guo, they were obviously stunned.
One of them said coldly: "Did you see a girl coming in?"
Liu Chengqiang calmed down and pretended to be confused and said, "What girl? Three uncles, you wear so much and you still have so tight bags. Isn't it hot?"
The three men in black only regarded him as an ignorant child. His expression did not seem to be lying. The man in black said earlier, "Go and go somewhere else."
When the three men in black left, Liu Zhi immediately said to the girl: "You follow us quickly, it will be bad if they return."
The girl did not refuse and nodded, so Wuguo and Liu Cheng hurriedly helped the little girl leave.
When the three men in black who left ran out for a mile, the man in black in the middle said, "What's wrong!"
The man in black on the left said, "What's wrong?"
The man in black in the middle said, "That child is so calm. Ordinary children must be frightened when they see our clothes, but he still talks to us calmly. Come back, we are being fooled!"
The other two also realized that something was wrong and hurried back, but when they returned, there were no people.
Liu Cheng and Wu Guo did not bring the little girl back to the Liu Mansion. Liu Cheng had a low status in the Liu Mansion. He would definitely have a storm when he brought an injured girl home. Because Liu Cheng rarely went out, he saved up a certain amount of money. They temporarily opened a room in the inn outside and asked Wu Guo to invite a doctor back. The common currency in this world is blue jade coins. Blue jade mines are not rare in this world, but they are monopolized by major empires and become legal mines for minting coins.
"What's your name?" the little girl asked half-sitting. Although the boy was sick, he saved himself, and his smile and warmth made the little girl very fond of him.
"Liu Cheng, where are you?" Liu Cheng smiled. He was so calm just now, but in fact he was very scared. If the man in black killed someone to silence him, he and Wu Guo would not have any resistance at all.
When the hero stands on that stage and is under the slightest attention of thousands of people, the hero's palms are actually full of sweat. And Liu Cheng is not a hero, at least not yet.
"My name is Xia Ling'er!" The girl smiled slightly, and her two dimples were very cute.
