Infinite Streamer

When Liu Yuan regained consciousness again, his mouth was filled with a nauseating bitter and foul smell. He heard the mooing of a calf and his face seemed to be licked by something. He felt something soft and elastic under his body and at the same time he felt full of strength. The Qihai acupoint below his belly button seemed to be constantly filled with waves of power, and it felt like it was swollen and about to burst, and he wanted to defecate!

Liu Yuan opened his eyes and sat up with a start. He suddenly found that his body had become smaller again. He was probably only about the size of a six or seven-year-old, and was only about seventy or eighty centimeters tall. He was actually riding on a giant white snake as thick as a bucket.

When Liu Yuan looked carefully, he saw a big hole on the giant white snake's head. The blood had dried up, and it was obvious that it had been dead for a long time. A strong calf was licking his arm docilely at this time.

A memory squeezed into Liu Yuan's mind like a remnant soul, and Liu Yuan just knew that the owner of this small body was called Xu Xian, a native of the nearby Xujiagou village. When he was herding cattle for the landlord, a calf was lost. Xu Xian searched everywhere for it, and when he reached the edge of a hundred-foot cliff, he encountered a giant white snake that was about to devour the calf he was herding. In order to protect the calf, little Xu Xian took an axe and chopped at the big white snake's head, but fell into the valley with the white snake.

Liu Yuan glanced around and saw that the side of the valley was quaint and quiet, with gurgling water and green willows swaying in the wind. From time to time, cranes flew by and fish jumped happily in the stream. It was truly beautiful and the view was very pleasant.

According to Xu Xian's memory, this is the southern foot of Heshan Mountain in Song territory. The locals also call Heshan Black Mountain. Black burning stones can be collected everywhere in Black Mountain and can be used to smelt iron. The black burning stones are said to be poisonous and can kill countless people and livestock.

It is said that this place is only a hundred miles away from the Song Dynasty's imperial capital, Tokyo, but because there is no official road here, transportation is very blocked.

Near the edge of Heishan Mountain on the Heishan Qi River, there is a village called Xujiagou, where little Xu Xian lived.

Xujiagou Village is a village that has existed for thousands of years, and its origin is closely related to the surname Xu.

It is said that as early as the Yao and Shun period more than 5000 years ago, there was a noble scholar named Xu You who was proficient in politics, morality, astronomy, divination, etc. When Emperor Yao was old, he was looking for wise men everywhere. He found Xu You's broad knowledge and wanted to pass the world to him.

Emperor Yao invited Xu You many times, but Xu You refused. Instead, he quietly ran away and walked to the Qi River in Heshan. He found that the place was picturesque with clear water and green mountains, and the land was spiritual and outstanding. So he lived in seclusion here with his people and became the ancestor of the Xu family. Xujiagou got its name because of the arrival of Xu You's people. It is rumored that Xu You later ascended to heaven.

It is rumored that more than 2000 years later during the Spring and Autumn Period, King Yi of Wei State was fond of raising cranes. He raised a large number of cranes in the Heishan area. He once saw Xu You, who had become an immortal, in Hecheng. Heshan was also named after "Crane Living in Heishan".

Xu Xian was a young boy living in Xujiagou. His parents had both passed away and he had no means of living. So he was hired as a cowherd by Xu Laocai from the same village. He could only eat a little and was not starving to death. He suffered from malnutrition for many years.

Liu Yuan thought of going to the stream to see what he looked like, so he moved his feet and actually walked to the stream in one step, taking a step more than twenty meters away. "Oh my god, what's going on?" Liu Yuan was scared and his face was full of disbelief, but it was obviously not a dream. Looking at his reflection in the stream, Xu Xian was already eleven or twelve years old, but he was dark and thin, with tattered clothes, and looked like he was only six or seven years old.

On the south side of Heishan Mountain to the east of Xujiagou Village, there is a temple nestled in the mountains and beside the water. It is called Jinshan Jiayou Zen Temple and is a thousand-year-old temple.

On the bank of the Qi River northwest of Xujiagou, there is a cliff over a hundred meters high. There is a deep cave several dozen meters away from the cliff. Legend has it that there is a white spirit snake that has been practicing for thousands of years lurking in the cave.

Now, the thousand-year-old white snake seemed to have died under the axe of the young shepherd boy Xu Xian. The big hole on the white snake's head was definitely not a shape that could be made by an axe.
