Chapter 566, life is like a candle in the wind
A dirty old earth dog covered with wounds all over his body, was licking his weak body alone, and he didn't have due vigilance in the face of Ah Er who came to him, but glanced at it obliquely and stopped careless, and continued to lick the wounds slowly.
Originally, judging from the situation of a stray dog, whether it was Liu Yanli or anyone, there should be enough vigilance.
"Ouch, good dog, come and let my sister hug..."
Liu Yanli looked at the old dog, and reached out to stroke the old dog, this hand was not on the head, it was still halfway, and the slender palm was bitten by the old dog.
The old dog was a little puzzled after biting Liu Yanli's hand, and his eyes almost didn't say [Why is this fish so hard, it can't be eaten]...
"me! I'm not a fish! I'm not a fish! I'm not a fish! Why don't I understand something important after saying it so many times? Why don't you want to eat the bugs next to you, the chicken tastes crunchy, and the nutritional value is higher than that of fish, and the special one bites me again, and I provoke someone..." Liu Yanli's face fluctuated greatly, and she really wanted to cry without tears in the face of the old dog who bit her hand, thinking that she had thought about raising a pet many years ago, but in the end it was shelved for inexplicable reasons, and she couldn't look back on this reason, and she couldn't even have a pet with its own fish attributes!
"Ayun... Oh no, Ah Er, what are you bringing me here for, just to let this old dog bite the old lady who is about to hang up? Hehe, that's really disappointing you, the old lady has lived for so many years and has seen a lot of battles, what kind of dog has not been seen, what cats, dogs, wolves, and even lions and tigers have chased me, this old dog can cause me harm? I will hehe..."Liu Yanli turned to face Ah Er and said proudly, very proud of her fishy history, even if she wants to cry, she must maintain an elegant and unpanicked expression.
Ah Er didn't pay attention to Liu Yanli, but arched the old dog and licked its wounds...
The old dog also wanted to move his head to rub Ah Er, but he couldn't do it because of his lack of strength.
"Listen, old dog, if you let go of the old lady, the old lady will take you to eat and drink, understand? Don't let go quickly, I'm not delicious..."
The old dog lay with half-squinted eyes, motionless, and finally saved even the strength to lick himself...
Ah Er continued to arch its body, trying to make it move, but it was difficult for it to move on its own, not only was it scarred, but even its age did not allow it to do so.
Liu Yanli could see that this was an old dog, a very old dog, his eyes were cloudy, and there was yellow pus flowing down, and the aging of his body could be seen clearly with the naked eye.
"Ah Er, do you know this stray dog? β
"I know, when I used to wander in the town, its owner often took it for a walk..."Ah Er looked at the weak old dog and said with some loss: "Why did it come here, did the owner drive it out..."
Ah Er's eyes were lost, looking at the old dog, thinking of the stray dog companions he had seen before, some dogs were lost, some dogs were stray from birth, and some were abandoned by their owners, among which the dogs abandoned by their owners were the most pitiful...
It is much more miserable to have happiness and then lose it than to have nothing.
Ah Er's emotions were transmitted to Liu Yanli's heart, this time Liu Yanli did not say sarcastic, but touched Ah Er's little head, Ah Er also leaned on Liu Yanli's hand, and from time to time he sniffed that hand, and saliva flowed out.
"I won't bother with you this time. Liu Yanli said speechlessly.
Keep your eyes on this old dog.
"If you are happy to meet it when you are wandering..."Liu Yanli did not ask Ah Er about the past, but said: "Then it is better for us to get it back to its house, maybe it is because the dog that has not gone missing... Well,Eight achievements are gone.,The owner who is not good for the dog will never take it for a walk.,At least I think the troublesome activity of walking the bend must rely on love to support it.,How tiring it is to walk the dog every day, right..."
Ah Er tilted his head and nodded as if he didn't understand.
Liu Yanli hugged the old dog, this time the old dog did not bite Liu Yanli because of the fishy smell, not because he didn't want to bite, but he couldn't bite anymore, only the nose continued to twitch, the turbid saliva flowed down, and it was the most lonely if he wanted to bite or not, and it was the most pity to be unable to eat it in front of a fragrant big fish...
"I always feel like you're still thinking about biting my mother... Forget it, I don't care about the villain, I won't feed you laxatives, if you are younger, I will let you see what real power is, let you and pull prostration, Fake..."Liu Yanli muttered, observed the wounds on the old dog's body, and at the same time sighed: "I heard you say that you used to wander in the town, and it is a miracle that the stray dogs in this town can run here, especially for your old dog, it must have taken a lot of effort to get here." β
Liu Yanli knew that the nearest town had to be ten kilometers away, this old dog not only wandered over, but also went up to Elephant Head Mountain, which was a miracle of miracles for an old dog, and now looking at its old and weak appearance, it didn't even have the strength to bite the fish, and it was really willpower and the like that that came through this part of the road.
"What sustained you to come to this mountain, there is nothing here except for a Taoist priest who is not handsome but quite reliable, a ghost who does not look scary, an elegant and beautiful mermaid who is loved by thousands of people, and a mess of monsters and an indescribable white-haired pollutant..."
"Wang... Wow..."
The old dog looked at Liu Yanli with half-open eyes, although he didn't have the blessing of his heart and the language, but those serious eyes couldn't deceive people, but he was saying something.
At least Liu Yanli can recognize that this pair of old eyes is telling and praying for something...
"You... What do you hope for?
The old dog seemed to understand Liu Yanli's words and shook his head slowly.
Without thinking about it anymore, Liu Yanli did not hesitate and took the old dog back to the Taoist temple.
As soon as he went back, Li Yun was waiting for Liu Yanli at the door.
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, you are back..."
......
......
"I don't know if it's my delusion, you seem to have known it for a long time, waiting for me here?" Liu Yanli put down the scarred old dog and wondered, "Is it my delusion?"
"You all need to communicate through his heart, isn't it normal for me to know from Ah Er?" Li Yun said with a smile.
Liu Yanli shook her head and said: "No, no, no, I don't mean this, I mean, you should know that there is an old dog that is about to hang up and come to the mountain, before I find it, you know that this old dog will appear in that place, right?" β
In this regard, Li Yun did not answer directly, but the Duren Sutra beside him was exuding a faint light, and the lines on it were connected with the lines on the old dog's body...
Looking at this old dog, Li Yun took out the middle grade whisk and used the cleaning technique above to clean up all the sand and soil stains on the wound.
But even if it was dispelled, the wound was still there, some places were bloody, some places had even scabbed, and it didn't know how long it took to walk to this Elephant Head Mountain, and only then did it come to this Sanqing Temple.
At this time, the old dog's brow soothed a little, and the belly no longer rose and fell so much, at least now the stains on the wound will not torture the old dog anymore.
"This old dog, he seems to have been attracted by something..."
"yes, he's just drawn to something... A certain scripture in the Taoist temple can attract the deceased who have regrets. Li Yun stroked the injured old dog.
"The deceased, this isn't a ghost, don't lie to me if I don't read much, shouldn't the dead be the same as that? It's the one floating above your head..."Liu Yanli pointed to the floating Hanxiang, and almost didn't say the word fear, the fish-man girl still doesn't have much resistance to ghosts and the like...
Hanxiang also floated twice in front of Liu Yanli, almost scared the girl to pee, and finally Hanxiang had enough of playing and put it away, giggling and going to the backyard to prepare things.
Liu Yanli left a lot of psychological shadows that were not thoughtful...
The injured old dog just let Li Yun pet it, and from time to time he stretched out his tongue and licked Li Yun's hand, which was completely different from his attitude towards Liu Yanli, which was the attitude of really facing his benefactor, not facing a fish...
"Wow, it's clear that I brought you back, and I'm so enthusiastic about this wild man, you're really not a thing, ungrateful, you're woody. Liu Yanli looked at the old dog speechlessly, the old dog squinted his eyes slightly, and he didn't even have the strength to take care of Liu Yanli, just a hoarse whirl... That attitude is still about the food.
"You have to understand that beasts are not much different when facing food, don't complain about the natural instinct, who made your body a fish, no wonder others. Li Yun stepped forward and hugged the old dog: "Although it has been cleaned up, it is better to take a bath with Longquan water, there are not many internal injuries caused by this old body..."
Li Yun knew that the spiritual power contained in Longquan water could relieve the pain of the old dog, at least a little, so that it would no longer cry out in pain...
"Don't you want it to look sick or something, it looks like it's going to die on the spot. Liu Yanli looked at the old dog with some concern.
"Its life is already a candle in the wind, the flesh is close to the limit state, what deprives him of life is not any illness and wound, but time..."Li Yun paused and said: "However, it will not hang up, at least not now... If you hold on to it in one breath, you won't die. β
Li Yun doesn't need to look at it to know that the vast majority of old dogs are flesh and skin injuries, and what is really taking away its life is the old body, the erosion of time brought by time, and the normal reaction of ordinary creatures when their life is about to end...
It's too old, if you look at it from Tianmu, Li Yun can see that this old dog is already 20 years old, for dogs, 20 years old is already a very big age, and there are very few dogs that can last until they are 20 years old, and the vast majority of dogs are almost dead when they are more than ten years old.
"It's already twenty years old..."Li Yundao.
"Oh, it's young, and so am I, a twenty-year-old girl. Liu Yanli said disapprecatingly.
"No, you are eight hundred years old, the lifespan between living things cannot be generalized, for us humans, twenty years old is just youth, but for old dogs, this is close to twice the limit of life. Li Yun wanted to complain, is age really that important, as for hiding like this, he said: "Not to mention that for you, twenty years may be just a moment in a long life, but for it, it may have come to an end." β
"The limit of twenty years, can support it to the present, to come here, must have a great belief, wait a moment and we will listen, this wish of the candle in the wind. Li Yun stroked the old dog's head and carried it to the backyard.
The clear dragon spring water containing spiritual power was beaten out, slowly cleaning the old dog's body, and at the same time, the spring water containing spiritual power was still awakening its vitality, and the wound did not heal, but it was not so painful.
This time, the old dog was able to open his eyes completely and even walk.
I got on all fours, and my movements were a little shaky, but there was nothing wrong with that...
Ah Er went to arch the old dog, and at the same time got some food out of his dog bowl and gave it to him.
The old dog didn't go to eat the food, but licked and responded to Ah Er.
Li Yun wants to use his heart to establish contact with it...
The spiritual sea that belonged to his heart soon penetrated into its heart.
For Li Yun, this old dog already has a lot of trust, and he has no obstacles.
"Hello. β
Old Dog: "......"
The old dog did not answer.
But soon Li Yun knew the reason, not that the old dog didn't want to say it, but that the old dog's thinking was so sluggish that he couldn't react to thinking, and only the belief and instinct to support his life were left.
"What is it that has supported it to survive until now..."Liu Yanli is also in the chat channel of his heart, and he can feel the chaos of this old dog's thinking now, in other words, he is too old and forgets everything... This state is the same as Xie Sujie, and it is also relying on something to live tenaciously for so long.
"Dementia to such an extent that there is a reason why I have to come... This is not able to bear the weight of life. β
Li Yun silently felt the old dog's thinking.
The old dog's thinking is only slow, not nothing, with the belief that supports it, its desire, only the deepest obsession in the heart, will be attracted by the Sutra of Salvation.
It may be dead, but it's still not deadβ
In the end, the old dog's thinking was transmitted to Li Yun's heart, and also to Liu Yanli's heart.
[I hope... Died after him...]
