Late at night.
In a bed at the orphanage, Jing Shaoyu, in his sleep, had a pale face and a pained expression. His small body tossed and turned, as if he were having a terrible nightmare, as if some terrifying thing was chasing him in his dream.
His forehead was covered in sweat. Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, his pupils contracting violently. He sat up abruptly, breathing rapidly.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Na'er, who was next to him, was awakened by Jing Shaoyu's movements. The little girl sat up, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and asked in a muddled voice.
"It's nothing, just a dream." Jing Shaoyu turned to the little girl and said, reaching out to help her lie down. He then lay down again himself. "Go to sleep, it's nothing."
"Oh!" The little girl mumbled, hugged Jing Shaoyu's body, closed her eyes, and fell asleep before long.
Listening to Na'er's soft snores, Jing Shaoyu found it impossible to fall back asleep.
"Who am I?" His eyes were wide open, staring at the dark space above, his mind in turmoil. "Am I Jing Shaoyu? Or someone else?"
His eyes glazed over as he stared blankly upwards, the thoughts in his head a chaotic mess, making him dizzy and mentally exhausted. Unknowingly, he lost consciousness, unsure whether he had fallen asleep or simply fainted.
The next morning, Jing Shaoyu woke up to Na'er's sweet calls. The first thing he did upon waking was to touch his body, touch his head, and only after confirming that his body and head were fine did he breathe a sigh of relief.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Na'er asked with wide, curious eyes, full of puzzlement.
"Nothing." A genuine, happy smile appeared on Jing Shaoyu's face as he said to Na'er, "Let's go wash up."
"Oh!" Na'er nodded, feeling that her brother was a bit strange today, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was different. How strange, Na'er thought, touching her little head in confusion.
"Is this heaven's punishment for me?" Jing Shaoyu took Na'er's hand and walked towards the washroom, his head lowered, his eyes somewhat vacant, as he cried out in anguish in his heart, "I was already allowed to transmigrate, so why couldn't I have transmigrated to a more awesome world? Why did I have to transmigrate to this Xuanhuan doormat of a Douluo Continent? Even if I had to transmigrate to Douluo Continent, why couldn't I have gone to an earlier era? Why did I have to transmigrate to this era that has already become the Tang Family Continent? Isn't this just messing with me?!"
Jing Shaoyu wanted to cry but had no tears.
Sometimes, awakening the memories of a past life is not a happy thing, because it allows you to know in advance the future and direction of some worlds, thereby losing hope in this world, just like Jing Shaoyu.
After waking up in the morning, he realized where he was and understood what would happen in the future of this world. He had undoubtedly been drawn into the great, selfless, righteous, and kind Tang God King's grand ten-thousand-year plan. There was no need to doubt this, after all, the Tang Family Continent was not famous for nothing.
Jing Shaoyu could only pray that his Martial Soul wouldn't be too bad, so that he would have some ability to protect himself in the future, and at least be able to protect Mother Jing Ziyuan and Aunt Lin Xin.
However, Jing Shaoyu's gaze fell involuntarily on the little girl beside him. Na'er seemed to sense Jing Shaoyu's gaze and turned her head to look at him, a naive smile on her delicate face as she sweetly called out, "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to take another look at my cute Na'er." Jing Shaoyu said with a smile.
"Hehe, Na'er also wants to take another look at my cute brother." Na'er said with a giggle.
"Uh~" Jing Shaoyu heard Na'er use the word 'cute' to describe him, his face darkened, and he said helplessly, "Na'er, brother is a boy, boys shouldn't be described as cute, they should be described as handsome."
"Hehe, okay, Na'er understands." Na'er replied obediently.
Could Na'er be a personality split of the Silver Dragon King? But why did he encounter her and bring her back? What about Tang Wulin? Or will something happen to him and the orphanage later, leading to Na'er wandering again, and then being encountered by Tang Wulin? Jing Shaoyu couldn't help but feel troubled and have a headache.
It's not that he's overthinking things, it's just that this is the Tang Family Continent, and you really don't know what they'll do to achieve their goals! The Tang God King can even use his own daughter to plot against the Child of Destiny, let alone small characters like them? Arriving at the washroom, Jing Shaoyu first brushed his teeth and washed his face, and then, after Na'er finished washing her face and brushing her teeth, he picked up the wooden comb on the sink and began to comb Na'er's hair.
It must be said that combing a girl's hair is indeed a very easy way to win her favor. For the past six months, Jing Shaoyu has been helping Na'er comb her hair, and every time he combs Na'er's hair, it is the quietest time for the two of them.
By the time Jing Shaoyu had neatly combed Na'er's silver short hair, it was just the time for Jing Ziyuan to call them for breakfast.
Breakfast at the orphanage was simple: two children, one egg each, followed by steamed buns and rice porridge, all in portions that could be eaten until full.
Jing Shaoyu looked at the peeled egg, feeling somewhat disillusioned. Douluo Continent, are there chickens that lay eggs? Will the chickens that lay eggs mutate? For example, mutate with some kind of evil fire, and eventually become a phoenix, hahaha.
"A Yu, why aren't you eating and just staring at the egg with a smile?" Jing Ziyuan asked, looking at the silly-grinning Jing Shaoyu.
"Mom, what kind of chicken laid this egg?" Jing Shaoyu composed himself and asked Jing Ziyuan.
"Of course, it was laid by a chicken." Jing Ziyuan said, a little puzzled, but then she realized what Jing Shaoyu wanted to ask, so she added, "The eggs in our courtyard are all distributed by the Administrative Office as a benefit for public officials. They are generally from ten-year White Feather Chickens, and their nutritional value is much higher than ordinary eggs on the market."
"Ten-year White Feather Chickens, so they are Soul Beasts?" Jing Shaoyu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he continued to ask.
"More or less, although most White Feather Chickens can't live for ten years." Jing Ziyuan said with a smile, "Alright, hurry up and eat. After you finish, I'll take you to awaken your Martial Soul."
"Okay, okay!" Jing Shaoyu immediately put the egg matter behind him, his mind completely drawn to the upcoming Martial Soul Awakening. He began to eat quickly.
"Mom, can I go with Brother?" Na'er looked at Jing Ziyuan, her little face full of anticipation, and she asked.
"No, Na'er has to stay home with Aunt Lin Xin." Jing Ziyuan decisively rejected Na'er's request.
"Ah! Why?" Na'er was very unwilling, looking at Jing Ziyuan with a pout, and shouted, "Mom is biased!"
Na'er's anger didn't change Jing Ziyuan's mind. Until breakfast was over, Na'er was still sulking, holding onto the corner of Jing Shaoyu's clothes, not letting him leave.
"Na'er, be good, don't be angry," Jing Shaoyu had no choice but to appease this little ancestor first. He coaxed her dotingly, "When Brother comes back, I'll bring you candied hawthorns, okay?"
"No!" Na'er refused decisively, her two big eyes looking at him pitifully, which instantly defeated Jing Shaoyu. Ever since Na'er joined the orphanage, Jing Shaoyu's immunity to Na'er's pitiful act had been zero, even now.
However, Jing Shaoyu couldn't handle Na'er, but Jing Ziyuan could. Jing Ziyuan pushed the bicycle out of the yard, parked it next to Jing Shaoyu, and then directly picked up Na'er, handing her over to Aunt Lin Xin despite Na'er's reluctance.
"A Yu, get in the car, let's go." Jing Ziyuan walked to the car, patted the dazed Jing Shaoyu, and said.
"Oh, oh!" Jing Shaoyu woke up with a start, nodded quickly in agreement, and sat on the back seat of Jing Ziyuan's bicycle.
That's right, a bicycle! He actually saw a bicycle on the Douluo Continent. Wasn't this too dreamlike?
However, thinking that this era even had cars and trains, then having a bicycle wasn't a particularly strange thing, right? Jing Ziyuan carried Jing Shaoyu and rode out of the orphanage gate. Jing Shaoyu looked back and saw Aunt Lin Xin holding Na'er standing at the door, waving goodbye to them.
"Na'er, don't worry, I'll bring you candied hawthorns!" Jing Shaoyu waved at Na'er and shouted.
