Chapter 243 Fulfilling Dao De (2/2)

If he killed the beast with such spirituality, it might be inappropriate.

Hence, Shen Lian found an alternative.

To be reborn as a human was not something any spiritual beast could do. It would require someone like Shen Lian to help and the right opportunity.

Unlike the rebirth of Zhang Ruoxu, for the beast, it was more accurate to say it remained in the same life but a different body.

Shen Lian and Zhao Xiaoyu traveled for ten plus days then they finally found a family.

It was a medium-sized village, and it was in the evening.

As the saying went, there were many crows and the water circumvented around an abandoned village.

The family just had a newborn baby who was unfortunately dead after a few days. It was not a rare occurrence as children were difficult to raise, even in wealthy families, the child could suffer an early death.

Shen Lian took a piece of leaf that looked like one of the paddy plants, and it was from an acorus that had lived for several hundred years. He stuffed it in the Fengshen Beast's nose and soon some green smoke rose from its head. It looked like the beast's shape. It waved bye to Shen Lian and then Shen Lian formed some incantation to command a wind which sends the green smoke to the dead baby.

The baby then began to cry and it shocked the adult who was holding it. The adult threw it away.

Shen Lian managed to catch it.

Shen Lian was now dressed as a scholar who seemed studious and laughed, ”Please be careful to not drop the kid.”

People from the village tended to respect scholars, and as the man was just a farmer. He took the child from Shen Lian and he felt happy that it came back alive. He asked Shen Lian, ”Where are you from? Thanks so much.”

When he asked Shen Lian in a confused state, Shen Lian disappeared all in a sudden as if he never appeared. He thought he was daydreaming, but looking at the kid who was blinking, it looked much alive.

There was a green bamboo stick next to him, and he did not know who left it by his door.

As Feng family's baby came back alive, the news spread through the entire village and had become a miracle. They gave him a name, Feng Qingyang. The kids in the village were often just referred to as Goudan, Erdan and something similar, but for the treatment the kid in Feng family got, it was for the first time. When he was four, he could make poems, and hence it proved that he was a prodigy. More often than not people saw the Feng's kid with a bamboo stick chasing after the cows and goats. They were all very tame and never ran away.

This was of course what happened after. Shen Lian and Zhao Xiaoyu were back in Longevity Temple.
