Chapter 162 An Eleven-Year-Old Child
Every year on the 15th day of the third lunar month, the people of Dali gather at the foot of Cangshan Mountain to trade goods from various countries, ending on the 21st, which is the Guanyin Festival. From the Yonghui era of the Tang Dynasty to the present, dynasties have changed, but this market has remained unchanged, because it is believed that Guanyin entered Dali. Later, people burned incense on this day, and people from all directions heard about it and brought their goods.

Officially it is recorded as the Guanyin Festival, but the common people call it the March Street Festival.

Chenxiang remembered that he had celebrated the Guanyin Festival three times already, and this year was the fourth time, when he turned eleven.

The March Street Festival is special because the Goddess of Cangshan can only come down from Cangshan Mountain and participate in activities on the March Street Festival for a few days each year.

A vendor named Chenxiang set up a stall on the street in March, selling only potatoes. He put up a sign introducing the potatoes, and passersby who didn't look closely at the sign might have thought he was selling some kind of medicinal herb.

Herbal medicine is the most traded commodity in the March Street Market. The quantity and variety of herbs traded are enormous, partly due to the extremely rich biodiversity of the Dali region, and partly because this area is also a recognized distribution center for herbs in southwestern countries.

"What are these potatoes?" Someone stopped in front of a roadside stall, looking at the mountain of potatoes piled up.

"This is a product from another continent overseas. It can cure hunger and malnutrition. It has an extremely high yield and is not picky about the land. One acre can produce a thousand catties."

"It came all the way across the ocean, it's that powerful?"

The customer sat down at the roadside stall and watched as the vendor picked out a grilled charcoal from the fire, scraped off the ash, and handed it to the customer to eat with sauce.

A roasted potato sold for three coins. Although it was cheap, the large quantity made up for it, and several hundred coins were earned in a day. Several hundred catties of raw potatoes were also sold. Some people wanted to try planting them, but no one believed the roadside claims of a yield of a thousand catties per mu.

"How old is your child?"

"I'm thirteen years old." The answer from the person on the roadside was their age in the traditional Chinese way (by the lunar calendar). Whenever someone asked about my age, they would answer in the traditional Chinese way.

"Thirteen years old? What did your child eat to grow up like that?"

"Look, this is all there is." The man pointed to the potatoes by the roadside, telling the truth, but the passersby didn't quite believe him.

"Agarwood!"

"I'm here!"

The Goddess of Cangshan disguised herself as a local woman and came to the market looking for Chenxiang.

The March Street was packed with people, bustling with activity, and the Goddess of Cangshan Mountain moved through the crowds.

“I bought a grilled fish, let’s eat it together with your godfather,” said the Goddess of Cangshan.

"okay!"

"..." He glanced at the Goddess of Cangshan by the roadside without saying a word.

Chenxiang was persuaded by the Goddess of Cangshan to recognize him as her godfather, thus clarifying their relationship. Chenxiang and his aunt, the Goddess of Cangshan, were happy, but Lu Bian was not happy at all.

He considered refusing Chenxiang, but he was afraid of hurting his relationship with Chenxiang, so he had no choice but to let them go.

"Are you going to join the singing contest over there?" The Goddess of Cangshan squatted down by the roadside and kindly asked him.

"Don't go."

"The men and women singing to each other already have someone they love. What would I do there? Would I cause trouble for them in their relationships?" someone on the roadside replied.

“Are you afraid no one will want you? How could that be? I see many young girls waiting for you. You’re still single, and people have already found out about you,” said the Goddess of Cangshan.

The March Street Song Contest is of special significance; it's like a large-scale confession event for men and women. Those who sing in response have prepared well in advance and are aiming for marriage.

The wedding customs of the Central Plains have been passed down, but the local customs are also different. The process is not as complicated as that of the Central Plains, and it emphasizes loving and hating fiercely.

He kept his distance from the girls of all ages in the village and town by the roadside, afraid of being dragged down by matters of the heart.

"There's nothing I like?" The Goddess of Cangshan looked at the roadside.

"What happened?"

"What do you think of me?" "Huh?!"

He wondered if he had misheard, but he knew he couldn't have. He moved to the side, away from the Goddess of Cangshan.

"What are you doing! How dare you look down on me!" The Goddess of Cangshan clenched her fist and punched the roadside.

The Goddess of Cangshan tried very hard, but it felt like she had hit a rock.

There was a very hard rock by the roadside.

"I'm just asking how I am, not asking you to marry me," said the Goddess of Cangshan.

"A celestial maiden descended to earth, a peerless beauty, yet she is a flower on a high mountain, only to be admired from afar," the roadside replied.

"Hmph~!"

I felt a lot of pressure while standing by the roadside.

He felt that he hadn't done anything wrong, so how could he have caught the eye of a celestial maiden?

As Chenxiang watched the two of them secretly smiling, he suddenly felt something and looked up at the sky.

"What's wrong, Chenxiang? What's that in the sky?" The people by the roadside immediately became alert and looked up at the sky.

“I think I’ve broken through…” Chenxiang said.

"What? The 25th Heaven? You just broke through? Then let's go up the mountain to undergo the tribulation."

“I’ll be watching you from the side,” he said from the roadside.

"Yeah." Chenxiang nodded.

Roadside: [At eleven years old, I arrived at a place where the magnetic field was rotating and I possessed 250,000 horsepower of power. Is this normal?]

Shi Tianwu: [Judging from the magnetic field environment, Chenxiang is at the twenty-fifth level? That should be normal.]

Shi Tianwu decided to go out.

He wanted to observe other people's children.

He now lives in Tokyo in the 21st century on a new timeline. Shi Tianwu changed the history of this timeline. Lan Dao Tianwu and Gui Wang were erased from the world by Shi Tianwu, but Oga and Hell are alive. Lan Meng was not born, and the Tiandao and Xiongshi brothers did not become orphans. Bai Junlang did not become "Sea Tiger" who opposed Lan Meng Company.

The life trajectories of these primordial magnetic field powerhouses have all changed, but the magnetic field power still appears in them; only their use of the magnetic field power has become more subtle.

Hitomi Kanzuki was still born, but this time she was just an ordinary person, without the innate 500,000-horsepower magnetic field power. Her biological father was not Aromō Tenbu, and her mother was still that Japanese woman surnamed Kanzuki.

Shi Tianwu lived in Tokyo in order to observe the woman, Guan Yue Tong.

After Guan Yuetong's unique destiny and the power of 500,000 magnetic fields were no longer part of her life, what kind of life will this woman who has captivated most of the ultimate powerhouses experience?
Under Shi Tianwu's covert observation, some strange things happened to Guan Yue Tong and Bai Junlang. Bai Junlang, the domineering president of the Bai Group, fell in love with Guan Yue Tong, who came from an ordinary family in Tokyo. The two married and had two children.

Shi Tianwu observed the birth of the two brothers, Bai Shounan and Bai Cinan. However, this time the two brothers had two normal formal names, while their nicknames were Shounan and Cinan.

Both the first and second sons inherited Bai Junlang's magnetic field talent; they were exactly the "other people's children" that Shi Tianwu was talking about.

The first son was eleven years old, and the second son was nine years old.

The first man had already discovered that he possessed a special power and was troubled by his magnetic field strength, keeping it a secret from everyone; the second man also discovered his own specialness and kept it a secret as well, but he was immersed in the power of his strength.
