The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

Chapter 526 Brother Rebirth in the Comprehension World 1
"Brother, this pancake is for you to eat."

A seven or eight-year-old boy handed Jia Huan a palm-sized pancake.

Jia Huan took the pancake, broke it in half, and handed the bigger half back to the boy.

"Brother, you eat."

"I, I'm not hungry." As soon as the boy's words fell, his stomach rang regardless of the owner's wishes.

Jia Huan stuffed the pancakes into the boy's hands: "Brother, I don't have much snacks, so this much is enough. Eat it."

The boy still wanted to refuse, but he heard Jia Huan say, "Later, let's go to the field to catch loach and cook the loach to eat."

"Loach? Is that thing edible?" the boy asked worriedly.

"Eatable." Jia Huan said, "Loach and eel can be eaten."

The boy didn't know much about the creatures in the field, so he believed what his younger brother said.

The boy was actually very hungry, and it was only because of his younger brother that he refrained from eating the discarded pancake.

Now his younger brother told him that there were other things to eat, so the boy started eating pancakes with confidence.

Dry pancakes are not tasty, but no one cares about the taste when you are hungry.

The boy ate up the pancakes in two or three strokes.

Jia Huan also ate half of the pancake in his hand.

His current body is too hungry, if he doesn't eat, he doesn't even have the strength to move.

The original owner of this body died of starvation and illness.

The little child's body resistance is very weak, and he easily lost his life.

Before Jia Huan entered this body, he saw the child's ignorant soul, so he first sent the child's soul to reincarnation, watched it enter a wealthy family, and then entered the child's original body.

The child was only five years old and had very little memory. Jia Huan quickly absorbed it.

The child originally lived in a relatively wealthy family, but two months ago, his parents were killed by robbers when they went out.

The child's uncle's family took over the property of the child's family and sold the two nephews to others as slaves.

The child's elder brother Jia Xuan escaped with the child, and the two went to Dengxian City while begging.

But it turns out that there are immortal cultivators in this world.

Every ten years, the Xiuxian sect will recruit new people in Dengxian City.

All children who are five years old and younger than 16 years old can participate in the recruitment. As long as they have spiritual roots, they can be included as disciples by the Cultivation of Immortals sect.

Of course, there are generally very few people with spiritual roots, and every time they go to the fairy city to recruit new ones, the number of children who can be taken away by the cultivation sect is very small.

But this did not stop people from coming to the fairy city. Many people came here thinking that if they/their children had spiritual roots, they hoped that they/their children could ascend to heaven and become apprentices of immortals.

This is a grand event for the whole world, even children like Jia Xuan and the original owner know it.

Jia Xuan fought with his back and brought his younger brother to attend the grand event in Dengxian City.

Thinking that no matter which of the two brothers has spiritual roots, they can get rid of the current predicament, and they can go back to take revenge in the future.

But I didn't expect that the life of begging without money and long journeys are very unfriendly to young children.

Jia Huan sighed, the original owner's death had nothing to do with Jia Xuan, and he didn't want his brother to die either.

If he knew, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Therefore, after Jia Huan replaced the original owner, Jia Xuan did not notice anything unusual.

As for later...

Isn't it normal for people to change when they grow up?
After eating pancakes, the two of them gained some strength.

Jia Huan then followed Jia Xuan to the edge of the field.

People in this world don't know that loach and rice field eel are delicious ingredients, and no one eats loach and rice field eel, so there are a lot of these two in the fields.

Soon, the two children caught a lot of loaches and eels.

Jia Huan asked Jia Xuan to use a sharp stone to debone and cut off the head of the eel. The meat was boiled in a broken earthen jar.

Although there is no salt, the taste is not very good, but it is meat after all, and the taste is much stronger than dry pancakes.

The two brothers ate all the eels and finally felt full.

Jia Xuan patted her stomach and smiled at Jia Huan: "Brother, we don't have to worry about being hungry for the next few days."

Jia Huan responded with a smile.

In the next few days, the two brothers lived on loach and eels, and finally waited for the day when the grand event in Dengxian City was held.

The two brothers have been living in a ruined temple outside Dengxian City. Early in the morning, they saw sword lights flashing across the sky, flying past and falling into Dengxian City.

Jia Xuan's eyes are full of longing.

The two woke up before dawn today, and after breakfast, they headed to Dengxian City.

Although the recruitment will last for a month, they still want to rush to Dengxian City as soon as possible to test whether they have spiritual roots.

Jia Huan knew in his heart that his body had spiritual roots, but he didn't know if Jia Xuan had spiritual roots.

If there is no spiritual root, Jia Huan will find a way to let Jia Xuan practice.

Just like Zhan Zhao, you can come to Taoism through martial arts.

The two brothers came outside Dengxian City. There were guards at the gate of the city, but they didn't embarrass the two brothers who were like beggars.

Who knows if these two brothers have spiritual roots?
If there is, then he will become a disciple of the immortal.

Didn't they seek death when they blocked the immortal disciple?

The two brothers entered the city and found that there were already many people there.

Everyone has the same idea as them, wanting to test the spiritual root as soon as possible, many people arrived at Dengxian City many days in advance.

Nowadays, the city is crowded with people, and if one is not careful, the people traveling together will be scattered.

Jia Xuan held his younger brother's little hand tightly, fearing that the two would be squeezed apart.

Fortunately, they were small in stature, so they slipped through the crowd, but got to the front.

The front of the crowd was the square of Dengxian City, with ten stone gates erected on it, and two monks stood beside each stone gate.

The children passed through the stone gate. If there were no children with spiritual roots, the stone gate would not respond. When they reached the other side of the stone gate, they followed the road back to the crowd.

If there is a spiritual root, the stone gate will light up in a corresponding color.

The monks guarding the stone gate will give jade plaques of the same color to children with spiritual roots.

Holding the jade card, children with spiritual roots can go to various cultivation sects to sign up.

Jia Huan and Jia Xuan looked at the ten long lines lined up in the square, chose a line at random, and placed at the end.

It didn't take long to test the spirit root, so the two didn't have to queue for a long time, and it was their turn within half a day.

Thousands of children tested spiritual roots before them, and only ten children were tested to have spiritual roots.

Among them, there are four with five spiritual roots, four with four spiritual roots, and two with three spiritual roots.

People with five spiritual roots and four spiritual roots practice very slowly, and no major cultivation sect would want such disciples.

Those eight children could only go to small cultivation sects, or they could only go to some medium-sized cultivation sects as handymen.
