Chapter 1, I was sick of watching the commotion
In this life, he has caring parents and relatives, comes from a wealthy and influential family, and is a legitimate second-generation individual. However, he is unfortunately born with paralysis in his lower limbs, rendering him a person with such weak meridians that even health-preserving techniques are difficult for him to cultivate
Accompanied by a somewhat weak low call, the door of the room creaked open as a girl, around thirteen or fourteen years old, with a delicate face and a slender figure, walked in
Since his arrival in this city of Gui Shui, he has visited the market many times, yet he still enjoys joining in such lively gatherings
Suddenly, the entire marketplace was in chaos, with chickens flying and dogs barking, accompanied by the cries of children, creating a tumultuous scene
Although Xiao Lian is a girl, she has been practicing martial arts since childhood, which makes it effortless for her to take care of Xu Jing
Xu Jing allowed Xiao Lian to help him up, dress him properly, and then, in a princess carry, placed him in the wheelchair
Young Master—!" Xiao Lian elongated her voice, appearing somewhat reluctant. Xu Jing was fine in every aspect, but his penchant for enjoying the spectacle troubled her greatly
Xu Jing waved his hand and gazed into the distance, feeling somewhat excited as he said, "It seems that something has happened, perhaps at the Tang residence. Let's go take a look."
Perhaps the original owner of this body found it unbearable to endure such a life, and thus chose to secretly take their own life
In his previous life, he enjoyed visiting markets like this, bustling with people, offering a variety of food, drink, and entertainment, and the key was that many items were both high quality and reasonably priced
Xu Jing is relatively optimistic, believing that since he is here, he should make the best of it. Although he is paralyzed from the waist down, at least in this world, he is not alone, and he even feels a warmth of familial affection that he has never experienced before
What is wrong with these people?" Xiao Lian frowned as she watched the cavalry disappear into the distance, shielding Xu Jing from the dust, her face filled with indignation
However, this is not the first time Xu Jing has appeared. As the sole heir of the Xu family, anyone with a bit of knowledge in the entire Guishui City would recognize him.
As soon as Xu Jing arrived here, he was horrified by the scene before him, turning pale.
Feeling a gentle warmth on his face, the young man awoke from his slumber and slowly opened his eyes
Although Xu Maozhe has worked very hard, since the birth of Xu Jing, he has had three consecutive daughters, with not a single son.
Suddenly, the sounds of hawking and bargaining, the cheers and applause, as well as the laughter and chatter of children, all came drifting over.
Young Master Xu has arrived Young Master Xu
But at that moment, a large troop of well-trained cavalry came from East Street, as if something significant was happening, galloping past without any regard.
As they exited the door, two strong and robust men, with a long and steady breath, silently followed behind, taking on the role of accompanying guards.
But six years have passed, and life remains the same, so he extinguished the unrealistic thoughts in his heart
As they continued on their way, whenever he saw something of interest, he would call out to Xiao Lian to stop, to observe or purchase it, while also satisfying his hunger.
The frail young gentleman in a wheelchair, accompanied by a delicate and charming maid pushing the wheelchair, is closely followed by two imposing and formidable-looking strongmen.
Xu Jing smiled and said, "Xiao Lian is obedient"
"Young Master, let us go," Xiao Lian said, her voice trembling and her complexion quite pale. However, having trained in martial arts since childhood, her self-control was stronger than Xu Jing's, and she did not embarrass herself.
The young man turned his head slightly towards her and said naturally, "Help me up"
The Xu family has settled in Guishui City for less than twenty years, yet due to the presence of Uncle Xu Jing, Xu Maozong, they are one of the prominent families in the entire Guishui City
In the blink of an eye, six years have passed since I crossed over to this world, and now Xu Jing is already seventeen years old
Xu Jing is a kind-hearted person. As he walked along, regardless of whether he was familiar with them or not, people actively greeted him with smiles, and he responded to each one without any sense of superiority
Such a peculiar group of people appeared, instantly attracting the attention of many.
He indeed succeeded, but due to Xu Jing's crossing over, his existence continued in another way
He once enjoyed reading various novels, and when he first traversed into this world of martial arts, he even fantasized about being the destined protagonist or something of that sort
A group of people arrived outside the gate of the Tang residence in a moment's time
Xiao Lian, unfazed by the oddity, pushed Xu Jing forward.
Just when Xu Jing thought his life was just beginning, he unexpectedly woke up to find that he had traveled through time
Little Lotus
Xu Jing is not actually a person from this world; he hails from Earth in the twenty-first century, but he grew up in an orphanage from a young age
Let us go back to the residence
His name is Xu Jing, and he is the only male descendant of the Xu family in Gui Shui City, located in the southern region of the Da Liang Kingdom, as well as the sole heir of the current family.
Xu Jing came to her senses and nodded towards the market, saying, "Let's go take a look."
Outside the door, nearly a hundred corpses lay in neat rows on the street
Just then, the other servants summoned by Xiao Lian brought in a basin of warm water. Xiao Lian skillfully wrung out a hot towel and helped Xu Jing wipe his face and hands. After he had finished washing up, she pushed him out.
Unfortunately, Xu Jing has been paralyzed in the lower limbs since childhood and requires assistance with daily activities, with Xiao Lian serving as his personal maid
After Xu Jing had his fill of enjoyment, he called out, and Xiao Lian pushed him out of the market entrance
This is not all, as constables continuously enter and exit the Tang residence, carrying corpses outwards
Xiao Lian's voice was clear and melodious. After waving her hand towards the distance, she quickly walked into the room
Nevertheless, he harbored no significant resentment in his heart. He was cheerful and optimistic, working part-time while studying, graduating with excellent grades, and securing a relatively good job
At this moment, it is the busiest time of the morning, with villagers or hunters from dozens of miles around Gui Shui City bringing various goods into the city for trade, along with numerous small vendors who make a living specifically from this.
Having encountered this situation frequently, she had grown accustomed to it. She pushed Xu Jing along and made her way to the vicinity of the market after exiting the main gate of the residence
Xiao Lian was pushing the wheelchair from behind, and with her bright eyes, she glanced at Xu Jing. From her experience, she naturally knew that the young master must have been lost in thought again
Xiao Lian pouted her lips and, somewhat helplessly, pushed Xu Jing westward
In the early morning, the newly born sunlight filtered through the window paper, casting its light upon the young man's frail cheeks on the bed.
Everyone had a look of unblinking death, their expressions filled with immense terror, as if they had encountered something exceedingly horrifying
Xu Jing felt uncomfortable in her throat after glancing a few times, and everything she had just eaten uncontrollably came back up and was expelled to the side
Young master, I am here
Xu Jing sometimes thinks that perhaps this is how his life will be, although he cannot take care of himself, at least he is free from worries about food and clothing, and his family background is good, so he does not have to worry about not being able to find a wife
I will not be eating at home today; please take me out for a stroll first
Moreover, each of these corpses has a large hole carved out at the location of the heart, with the heart having vanished without a trace. The area where the chest was opened shows not a single drop of blood, and the skin is so pale that it appears as if the entire body has lost all its blood.
Behind him, Xu An and Xu Quan stepped forward without a word, positioning themselves in front of Xu Jing, preventing him from witnessing this terrifying scene
However, the Xu family has always been sparsely populated. In the generation of Xu Jing's father, Xu Maozhe, there were only him and his elder uncle. Moreover, the elder uncle had suffered serious injuries in his youth, resulting in the loss of his ability to bear children
