   Chapter 1 A Fortuitous Encounter on the Escape from Marriage It was night, the stars hidden, the moon obscured. Only two lanterns hanging high at the town's entrance emitted a dim light. A figure scaled the wall and sprinted southwest. In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the two tightly closed doors slammed open, and a dozen figures burst forth. The leader glanced around, then pointed southwest, "Over there, hurry and chase them!" These people were clearly faster than the previous one. The one running ahead was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, already panting heavily. He glanced at a large mountain in the distance, as if stars were breaking through the clouds, scattering their light, and rushed inside at top speed. In the blink of an eye, the group followed, three or two at a time, also entering the mountain. The mountain was pitch black, seemingly ideal for hiding. However, a single fireball spell could illuminate an area several meters in radius. Driven by a desperate will to survive, the boy's staggering figure suddenly surged with strength, and he sprinted forward, disappearing into the darkness in an instant, far from the group's sight. "Chase him! We can't let him get away."

The young man, exuding a scholarly air, turned to look at the little girl and said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you to go sell your calligraphy and paintings?"

Nearby, a pheasant was peeking out to eat the rice. After a while, it finally couldn't resist and crawled inside. The child decisively pulled the rope, and as the stick fell, the greedy pheasant was trapped under the sieve. Seeing this, the children jumped up excitedly, clapping and cheering for the one in the center. "Wow, I caught it! I really caught it! Twelve, you're so smart!" "Brother Twelve, you're so amazing! Can I marry you when I grow up?" "Twelve, my mom said that some immortals are going to be taking disciples in Huilong Town these days. You're so smart, maybe you can become their apprentice."
