Man covers the sky and conquers all worlds

Chapter 9 The Sad Little Bean
Just when Li Ming was feeling so excited that he couldn't contain himself, there was a knock on his door.

The thought sank into the Dawn of the Myriad Daos of the Heavens. His expression paused slightly, and he quickly withdrew his thoughts, raised his eyelids and said,

"The door isn't closed, just push it."

With a creak, the mottled wooden door that had stood there for who knows how many years was pushed open.

In the soft sunlight, Li Yuandao walked in with a complicated expression.

His eyes wandered around the room, pausing first on the packed luggage next to Dawn's bed, and finally landing on Dawn.

Then he looked back at the empty courtyard, then slowly closed the door and said softly,
"These past few days... I know you've been unhappy, but... perhaps this is our fate, just like how I was unable to save your biological mother."

"It's not your fault."

Liming shook his head, but his thoughts were drawn back to more than ten years ago, when the Church of Light was wreaking havoc in the Great Xia Dynasty.

At that time, his father left this remote county town alone, vowing to make a name for himself outside.

After several years, he finally got some opportunities and raised his realm to the realm of Life Spring.

In today's Chishui County, he is considered a good hand.

At the same time, he also met Dawn's real mother. Dawn, who had not yet awakened his memories of his past life, was also born during those years.

Unfortunately, stability is always short-lived.

The Church of Light, which had preached to almost the entire Great Xia Dynasty, suddenly rebelled.

Countless self-important and ambitious people raised their banners and followed suit.

But it makes life difficult for the people at the bottom of society.

Living in troubled times, we have no choice.

Even a skilled fighter from the bottom like Li Yuandao, who had opened up the fountain of life from the sea of ​​suffering, found it difficult to protect his family in that chaotic world.

Dawn's mother died in that turmoil.

Although it was not the people from the Church of Light who did it personally, it was caused by them.

In the chaos, after helping his young son escape, Li Yuandao was also seriously injured. Even the life spring he opened up dried up, and he fell into the sea of ​​suffering.

Disheartened, he had no choice but to return to his hometown with Liming.

But after all, he was very knowledgeable and had an inexplicable temperament, which attracted the attention of Li Yuanxin, the direct descendant of the Li family. This is how Li Ming had his younger brother and sister.

"Don't blame your Aunt Xin. She has sacrificed a lot to support our family over the years."

Li Yuandao wanted to say something, but in the end it turned into a sigh.

At the same time, he slowly walked towards Dawn, held Dawn with his calloused hands, and whispered in her ear,

"This should be enough for you to clear the sea of ​​suffering. When you go out, don't be as aggressive as I used to be..."

Feeling the warm bulge in his palm and the desire for the Map of the Heavens and Myriad Daos from the depths of his heart, Li Ming looked at his father's weathered face in a daze.

click!
The door was gently closed again, and the room fell into darkness again.

Liming picked up the thing his father left in his palm and slowly placed it in front of his eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

Another Originium, an Originium the size of a little finger, was radiating a bright light in the darkness.

It was almost his father's savings of several years, and it was right in his hands.

After a long silence, Liming closed his five fingers slightly and held the warm raw stone tightly in his palm.

He did not blame his stepmother. In fact, in his opinion, his stepmother treated him very well and never lacked him for anything.

But since it involves the future of her younger brother and sister, the mother has no choice.

Half an hour later, the tribesmen who had been out shopping returned. Liming, carrying his small bag, boarded their carriage. But before the carriage even started, he could hear his little sister crying.

It was only as big as a bean, but the harsh sound waves made the old horse pulling the cart pace back and forth impatiently.

Liming lifted the car curtain helplessly.

But I saw two little arms like white lotus roots hanging on the side of the carriage, and tears and snot mixed together, already dripping down from the round white chin.

Li Ming helplessly held his forehead, knowing that he couldn't let this little ancestor get involved, and hurriedly urged the younger brother standing beside him,

"Take it away, take it away!"

But no matter how his younger brother Li Qinghao pulled, the little kid's arms seemed to have taken root in the carriage and didn't loosen at all.

For a moment, I couldn't pull it down.

"Haha, these three little ones in your family really have a deep brother-sister relationship."

The person driving the car was Li Qingping's cousin.

Seeing the lawless and devilish Xiao Qingping in this state, he felt a little emotional. Although they were not from the same father and mother, they still had a deep brother-sister relationship.

When the little kid heard his uncle's comments, he cried even harder.
"Da Guo lied to me. He said he would buy me some malt sugar, but he didn't. Now he's planning to sneak away!"

Hearing this, the laughter in the alley suddenly became louder.

"Li! Qing! Ping!"

Liming's stepmother was carrying a heavy bag in her hands. As soon as she went out, she saw her little girl with snot and tears all over her face. She was immediately furious.

Hearing his mother's roar, the little kid's blood was suppressed, his back suddenly felt cold, and he sat down on the ground.

Liming then realized that his stepmother had not come out because she was looking for winter clothes and quilts for him.

After all, it is already autumn now.

The house of Li Yuandao's family in the clan had not been occupied for many years, so how could there be these things in it?

Liming stroked the Originium in his hand, feeling a little guilty.

Although the county town is small, it is still not easy to live in.

After packing up, several carriages loaded with heavy goods and people slowly walked out of the alley.

But after walking for a long time, I could still vaguely hear the howling sounds in the alley.

Sitting in the carriage, Liming chatted with his uncles.

In fact, Liming was born outside when he was young. After he was brought back to the family by his father, he came to the county town to spend a few years in Takeuchi.

It continues to this day.

Only occasionally during the New Year would my father bring the whole family back to the clan.

Therefore, he was not particularly familiar with these elders.

The carriage walked out of the city gate and headed south, slowly heading towards the farm where the Li family lived.

As the dozens of feet high city walls of Chishui County disappeared from sight, the people chatting and laughing in the carriage gradually quieted down.

As he walked forward, he looked at both sides of the road with some caution.

Li Ming simply sat cross-legged, his eyelids drooping, his eyes closed, and he continued to focus on brushing the two-and-a-half-year-old Teng Qingshan.

After all, the amount of Taoist power required to materialize the "Xingyi Quan Manual" is more than ten points.

He is still just a hair's breadth away from this goal.
