Fox Demon: Reincarnation of the Ninth Life

Wukong was reincarnated as a child from an ordinary family in a small village.

The family's surname was Chen, so he was named Chen Baoan. Although he retained his previous memories, he had lost his supernatural powers and his body was very weak.

When he was born, he stopped breathing for a while, and if the midwife had not patted his back vigorously, he might have been reincarnated again.

Fortunately this time, his parents were healthy and as the only child, he was very much loved.

In the center of the village, there is a stone statue with a handsome face, upright posture, and immortal demeanor, which makes Chen Baoan yearn for it.

Ever since he regained consciousness, his parents had been telling him the life story of the stone statue in front of him.

It also made Chen Baoan understand that if it weren't for that person, the village Kongba would have ceased to exist long ago.

In that year, the village suffered a fatal blow from monsters, and countless villagers died in that war.

The burning of corpses lasted for three days and three nights. If the man had not told them about a precious land before leaving, they might not have had the resources to survive the winter.

When he was three years old, Chen Baoan was taken to the end of a river by his mother Ye Ling.

There he saw the secret of the village's wealth.

At the end of the river, the surface was extremely clear, but there were many dark shadows floating in it.

On the sparkling river surface, the dark shadows seemed to be suddenly given life. They began to move slowly and swim freely in the water.

These shadows had various shapes, which constantly aroused his curiosity.

"Mom, what is this?"

“It’s a piece of black iron.”

Ye Ling touched Chen Baoan's head.

Chen Baoan observed the surroundings and found that this place was very hidden. The surrounding trees were much taller than other places. Even if he flew with a sword, he would not be able to find this place without sufficient insight.

"It seems that there is a mine here."

Chen Baoan muttered.

Generally, iron does not appear in rivers, but here its shadow can be observed on the river surface, which shows that there are still many black iron blocks inside the mining area.

After all, the abilities and skills of the villagers are limited, and even if times change, they cannot mine deep enough.

But just relying on the black iron on the surface, the whole village embarked on the road to wealth.

Chen Baoan's father was named Chen Huai, and he was one of the few people in the village responsible for mining black iron stone.

Perhaps it is because the village chief knows the pros and cons of such a large mining area. Only the village chief and miners of each generation know the exact location of this place.

Chen Baoan had followed his father into the city many times, and he saw greed in the eyes of those merchants who bought black iron stone.

In this era, black iron blocks can not only be used to cast weapons for the army, but most importantly, they can be made into excellent magic weapons.

That’s right, and the only family that can do such a thing is the Taoyuan Li family.

Chen Baoan returned to his home in the village. There were many books on the table. Compared with children of the same age, he preferred to see the world in books.

In it, he also learned about the history of two hundred years ago. This history book has been passed down from the generation before that.

It is about the deeds of the mighty and divine fortune teller Wang Ye two hundred years ago.

Since he plotted against the Dao League and traveled to the four great demon kingdoms to establish the Demon League, most of his life experiences were kept in the Dao League.

The village's history books come from the stories told by storytellers in the city. It is also because of the existence of storytellers that people in the world are aware of what is happening outside.

"The divine fortune teller, born with insight, has the ability to determine the cause and effect of people and control time. He is handsome and has an upright figure. With a heart to save the people of the world, he traveled to the four major monster kingdoms, founded the Monster Alliance, managed monsters, and made sure that monsters would never hurt people again."

As Chen Baoan read the story about the divine fortune teller in the book, he felt more and more familiar with it.

It seemed... just like his original experience.

A peerless warrior with extraordinary abilities is absolutely proficient in the control of his body, strength, and supernatural powers.

Before his reincarnation, he discovered that there were some gaps in the memories in his consciousness, but no matter how hard he tried to remember, it was ultimately in vain.

"What on earth...is this?"

Chen Baoan's face turned red as he tried to recall the lost memory.

'Boom! '

"Hi~it hurts!"

"Why are you getting angry at a history book in broad daylight?!"

Chen Huai was furious when he saw Chen Baoan's face flushed with anger as he stared at the history book in his hand.

My son is good in every way. He never cries or makes a fuss and is very reasonable. But he is too quiet and not lively at all.

At first he thought the child was precocious, but gradually he discovered something strange about Chen Baoan.

"Dad, why did you hit me?"

Chen Baoan showed a resentful look.

"Look, what would a child of this age do? Shouldn't he be crying loudly?"

Chen Huai roared in his heart and punched again.

"Look at this, is this father acting like a decent father? How can a father beat his child like this? Is the outside world like this?"

Chen Baoan did not fight back, but just protected his head tightly.

"Hey hey! What are you doing, Mr. Chen? What if you hurt your son?"

Ye Ling rushed in and immediately held Chen Baoan in her arms, glaring at Chen Huai.

"Humph! You should let him go out more often. What's the point of him staying in the room all the time?!"

Chen Huai's words were still firm, but his tone softened.

"Shut up! Kneel down!"

"You know how weak Baoan is."

As soon as Ye Ling finished speaking, a "thump" sounded, and she was still mumbling:

"It is precisely because you are weak that you need to go out more often..."

"Mom, I'm fine, please let Dad get up quickly."

Chen Baoan was not worried about his father, but his previous experience made him act as a peacemaker.

That’s right, this is his reincarnated father, although he looks like a middle-aged man in his thirties.

But his chiseled face, heroic appearance and bulging muscles all reveal the powerful energy and blood in his body.

Chen Huai has a strong aura and is very tall. He is not only one of the few people in the village who mine black iron stone, but also the leader among them.

This is also the reason why Chen Baoan, who is only three years old, can enter the source of the black iron stone.

"Let him kneel down. Mommy has prepared something delicious for you. Let's go and eat it quickly."

Ye Ling touched Chen Baoan's head and glared at Chen Huai before going out.

Leave a message.

We had dinner half an hour later.

Chen Baoan understood that he was just asked to come and wash the dishes and get rid of the leftovers.

Giving Chen Huai a look of pity, Chen Baoan put this little episode behind him as Ye Ling fed him.

To be honest, Chen Baoan no longer needs Ye Ling to feed him, but he still enjoys the process.

Different from the way he fed Liu'er Macaque in the past, he had a special feeling for Ye Ling in this life.

Maybe this is what it feels like to be surrounded by motherly love.

In this life, he finally no longer has an eldest brother who always wants to take him away and a third brother who always wants to kill him.

Under the favor of Ye Ling and Chen Huai, Chen Baoan grew up slowly. Having read a lot of scriptures, he learned many etiquettes that only the powerful and wealthy could learn. Among the many children in the village, he was the most outstanding one.

Even though his body was weak and he suffered from many illnesses, at least his brain was strong.

Compared with other children who are influenced by rural atmosphere, he seems to carry a scholarly air.

It was precisely because of this scholarly spirit that he was chosen as the village chief.

In the village chief's house.

"Old Chen, do you think that Baoan, if he chooses to study, can he go far?"

The village chief said after taking a sip of tea.

He understood that the black iron stone could bring wealth to the village, but it could also bring disaster.

The reason why it has not been discovered for so many years is because every village chief has been extremely cautious.

In his generation, in order to prevent this situation from continuing, he had to find another way out!

To this end, starting from his generation, they had already reached out to the academies in the city. Through this path, he secured a place in the Capital Academy.

Yes, and only one.

This quota concerns the future of the entire village, so the village chief observed the children in the village and found that the only one who could be competent for this task was Chen Baoan.

The village chief still had a very deep impression of Chen Baoan, but it was all negative impressions, a frail and sickly child.

"Village chief, as long as Baoan agrees, I have no objection."

Chen Huai didn't hesitate at all.

"But I have one request."

Chen Huai said with a firm look in his eyes.

"Oh? But it doesn't matter."

The village chief is very generous.

"Baoan has been weak and sickly since he was young. Please give him more Chinese medicine to strengthen his body and stabilize his blood before he leaves."

As expected, he is a father. Although he always emphasizes corporal punishment, he still worries about Baoan’s physical weakness at every critical moment.

Those herbs that strengthen qi and blood are so precious that he had thought about buying them for Chen Baoan to take, but he regretted that he did not have enough money.

"Okay, I agree. If Baoan agrees to go, I will ask someone to tailor a prescription for him and dispense the medicine for him personally."

The village chief said seriously.

"Thank you, village chief!"

Chen Huai knelt down to express his gratitude.

"Old Chen, I just have one question. Now that Baoan is gone, will you really not miss him?"

The village chief teased.

Chen Huai is a well-known iron-blooded man in the village, who only sheds blood and sweat but not tears.

"What do you really think?"

"Village Chief, as a father, how can I not love my child? It's just..."

"The young eagle is spreading his wings. He has his own stage. How can I help him? The most I can do is to help him solve his weak and sickly problems."

A glimmer of tears flashed in Chen Huai's eyes.

The journey to the capital is so far, and as a miner, he cannot leave the village at will.

And Ye Ling...

A strange feeling flashed through his mind, as if he was regretting...

I regret that I didn’t have the chance to talk to Chen Baoan or read a book with him when he was in the village.

'patta'

Chen Huai closed the door, and the village chief couldn't stop smiling.

"Even a tough guy has his weaknesses."
