Chapter 2: Awakening Ceremony

Axile Village.

The village chief was seen walking along the village road towards the interior of the village where the homes of the Tang and Xin families were located. It didn't take long for him to arrive in front of Xin's house and he immediately announced his arrival.

"Knock!..."

"Knock!..."

"Knock!..."

The sound of knocking on the door from the village head caught Xin's attention who was currently in the dining room having just finished arranging the breakfast that he was going to eat this morning. Xin then immediately left the dining room.

"Could it be that Xiao Xin hasn't come back yet?" The Village Chief muttered under his breath as he had not received a response after a long wait.

"Open!..."

Just as the Village Head was thinking about leaving and returning for a while, the door to the house opened to reveal Xin walking out.

"Village head?" Xin was slightly surprised to see the appearance of the village head.

"You were there. Previously I thought you were still in the forest hunting" The village chief replied smiling kindly at Xin.

"I had just finished cooking breakfast and before that, I was still going back to wash my hands. Have you had breakfast, Village Head? How about we have breakfast together? Incidentally, I cooked quite a lot today"

"Oh?" This offer from Xin instantly excited the Village Head, "Well, it's a bit impolite to refuse someone's invitation."

"Please come in"

Xin immediately allowed the village chief to enter his house.

"Still clean and tidy as usual"

It was not the first or second time that the Village Head had visited Xin's house. You can also see the expression shown by him earlier which shows that he has often come to this place to visit or have breakfast together.

The two of them immediately entered the dining room where Xin wasted no time in preparing the cutlery that the Village Chief would use along with white rice. Xin then immediately gave the Village Chief's share to the Village Chief.

"Thank you very much, Xiao Xin"

Xin smiled and went straight to his seat.

"Let's eat now, Village Chief. Food doesn't taste good as long as it's cold"

"Hahaha, that's right, moreover this is your food. We can't let such delicious food go cold."

Without waiting for a long time, the two of them ate quietly. You can see the village chief's expression showing a look full of pleasure every time he eats the dish made by Xin.

"Thank you for the food," The Village Head said softly and politely then glanced at Xin, "Xiao Xin, your cooking skills have improved compared to before. With your cooking skills, as long as you don't become a zen master, I'm sure you can become a successful person in the future"

"Don't say things like that, Village Chief" Xin said in a sullen tone, "That's as if praying for me not to become a zen master. I still want to be a Zen master and have an adventure to see the world."

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I just wanted to tease you" The Village Chief laughed kindly.

"By the way, Village Head, is there something for looking for me?"

"Oh, yes, it's related to the awakening ceremony." The Village Head immediately said about the subject he wanted to talk about, "In one week, the village will be holding the awakening ceremony at the village hall. All children who are six years old will come, you must come, don't forget about this"
