Chen Xiaoman, the most unpromising person in Chenjia Village, has extremely bad bones. His sword breaks while practicing and his talismans burn. He is regarded as a joke by the whole village.
Until that day, he picked up a bronze gourd in the back mountain. There is no elixir in the gourd, no skills, just a dry seed. He planted it casually in the yard, watered and fertilized it, and after a few days, seven small gourds appeared on the vine, each with different colors. The first red gourd fell to the ground and exploded, and a fat baby as big as a palm popped out. He opened his mouth and called him "Grandpa" because he was born to control fire.
Only then did Chen Xiaoman understand that what grew in this gourd was not an elixir, but an immortal.
Others cultivate immortality, seize spiritual veins, compete for caves, and compete for opportunities. He cultivated immortality, planted gourds, raised children, and taught disciples. One gourd has one magical power, and seven gourds have seven lives. During the fight, others waved flags and shouted to summon the master. He whistled, and the seven gourd babies rushed forward with howls.
Later someone asked him: What is your immortality?
Chen Xiaoman thought for a while: "Grow the gourds and raise the babies."
This is probably the most unpromising path in the world of immortality. But unfortunately, it was this unpromising Tao that raised seven immortals.
