50. The avenue is lonely
The exam that lasted for a week was finally over, and Ning Zhiwei went home again and didn't notice any difference.
Grandpa is playing chess with grandpa, grandma is watering flowers, grandma is humming Kunqu opera with the tape recorder, and my mother is sitting in front of the sofa and pulling out tissues violently.
As for Dad, he's tinkering with ingredients in the kitchen, well, he's the best cook in the family, even though he doesn't cook very often.
"Weiwei, I'm back. What are you doing standing there stupidly, you kid, you don't panic. ”
Xia Ling found Ning Zhiwei standing at the door, hurriedly put down the shower, buckled her hat on her head, and glanced at her with disgust, "It's finally a holiday, your father cooks himself, just wait for you to come back." ”
Her mind saw it all.
"Grandma, you go in and rest for a while, I'll help you water this flower."
"No, no, I'll do it myself." Xia Ling waved her hand and shouted into the living room, "Youyi, you're back slightly." ”
The next moment, Ning Zhiwei saw her grandmother running out at a speed that did not match her age, and hugged her in her arms with bright eyes, "Tiny baby, you are back, grandma thinks you have lost a lot of weight." ”
Feeling her old man's fleshy figure, Ning Zhiwei couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, and then looked at her grandmother, who was covering her mouth and snickering, feeling that this was a disaster, for fear that she would ruin her baby bumps.
"Grandma, aren't you hot?" On a hot day, is it really good to be so slimy?
"It's not hot, it's cool on the baby's body, and it's more comfortable than the air conditioner."
The grandfather under the grape trellis pushed his glasses, and he couldn't look directly at his wife who was selling stupidity again, and said: "Wang Youyi, your body is not afraid of crushing your slightly small body, and the child is still carrying a schoolbag." ”
Grandma's face suddenly turned red, she glared at her grandfather, and dragged Ning Zhiwei into the living room.
"Weiwei, you're back so early, why don't you let me pick you up."
Zhao Yidan untied her schoolbag for her and pulled her to sit down on the sofa, "Come, come and watch TV with my mother for a while." ”
Ning Zhiwei looked at the lingering and inseparable men and women on the TV, and there was a chill on her body, and she hurriedly stuffed her grandmother into her, "You two watch it, I'll go see Dad." ”
Without waiting for Zhao Yidan to speak, she quickly rushed into the kitchen. She would rather choose to be embarrassed than accompany her mother to watch a slimy drama.
"Weiwei, go to the refrigerator and dig up a piece of ice, let's have a chilled watermelon."
Ning Yayang smiled at her, her attitude was no different from usual, which made Ning Zhi's slightly apprehensive heart settle down, and she couldn't help but smile on her face, "Okay, Dad, look at me." ”
I saw her snap her fingers, and a large piece of cold ice appeared out of thin air in the basin, Ning Yayang was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to find her voice, "It turns out that there is really a strange person." Weiwei, are you sure you're not making some American blockbuster? ”
"Obviously, it's not."
"So, is it anything to do with the fact that you are an alien and you can't get married?"
Ning Yayang suddenly asked, making Ning Zhiwei stunned for a moment, "No." She looked at him guiltily, "Daddy, I'm sorry. ”
"It's okay, I see."
Ning Yayang touched her head, and the love of a father was in her eyes, "No matter which one stands in front of me, I will not force your life." I'm just worried that you won't have anyone to take care of in the future. ”
The corners of Ning Zhiwei's eyes were slightly astringent, and he leaned his head on his shoulder, "Dad, I will live for a long time, longer than any of you." ”
"Then isn't my family's Weiwei very lonely?"
Will it be lonely? Ning Zhiwei had never thought about this question.
Cultivating immortals is originally a lonely journey, fighting with people, fighting with the sky, the avenue is vast, the monk is just a drop in the ocean, only perseverance, thousands of years of enlightenment, it is possible to peek into the avenue.
"I'm not afraid of loneliness." I'm afraid that I won't be able to attain the Tao.
Her beautiful phoenix eyes bloomed with bright light, full of confidence, tenacity, perseverance and vigorous vitality, at that moment, she should have seen her own faith, so that her whole person was shining.
Ning Yayang was in a trance for a moment, his daughter had never been so vivid. The fact that her life can be continued in another way is a gift from God to their family.
No matter which Ning Zhiwei is, it is his daughter.
"I'll think about your construction that night."
Ning Zhiwei looked up at him, "Thank you, Dad, please forgive me for being selfish." ”
No matter how young she looks, her father and mother are already in their forties, and giving birth again is a load on the body, even if she uses elixir to improve their bodies, she can't break through the limitations of mortal qualifications.
"Silly boy." Ning Yayang's eyes were tender and soft, "Do what you want, I'll take care of everything at home." ”
As smart as he was, he had already guessed Ning Zhiwei's purpose of exposing his identity as a stranger.
"I'm so lucky to have met you and all of you."
"Perhaps it is a blessing for us not to suffer the pain of life and death."
After lunch, the family was gossiping in the living room, Xiaoqing was released by Ning Zhiwei, and was selling cuteness to the middle-aged and elderly women in the family, which made grandma's "little baby" long, and the "little baby" screamed non-stop, laughing.
Ning Zhiwei couldn't help but despise Xiaoqing's undisciplined divine beast, a dignified white tiger, who actually learned to bark a cat and a dog, and the face of the ancestor of the white tiger was lost by it, why didn't he see it so active in learning Mandarin.
On the other side, the three old men in the family were drinking tea, and Ning Zhiwei was serving on the side.
"Weiwei, why does that big cat you raise look like a tiger?"
Grandpa's old pedantic habit reappeared, and his eyes studied Xiao Qing, who was rolling comfortably, without blinking, and said coldly.
Ning Zhiwei's hand holding the teacup stiffened, and silently took out the "Adoption Permit", "Grandpa, you guessed it, Xiaoqing is indeed a tiger." ”
Seeing the small blue book, the tea in Ning Yayang's mouth almost squirted out, and even his grandfather, who had always been calm, pushed up his sliding eyes in surprise.
At this moment, Zhao Yidan was cutting a piece of apple and handed it to Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing flicked his tail flatteringly, took the apple in his mouth with a whin, ate it with a click, and opened his mouth at the end, looking salivating.
This looks like this, it's scary, okay, what if you bite someone?
"That, Xiaoqing is very humane, you don't have to worry."
Ning Zhiwei wiped the cold sweat on his head, turned his head, and said, "Xiaoqing, turn over the heel bucket for everyone to see." ”
Xiao Qing glanced at her, and its crisp voice instantly sounded in his mind, "Okay, Lord Yin." ”
Then, it was crisp and handsome, and it flipped a heel bucket.
"Let's dance."
The fat tiger staggered and danced the square dance of grandma and grandma, and the fat all over his body was thrown very happily, and the two old men laughed so much that they almost ran out of breath.
"Hand me an apple."
It stopped its cheerful little body, jumped up on the coffee table, held an apple in its front paws, leaned back, and threw its paws, and the apple flew towards her.
Ning Zhiwei stretched out his hand, accurately caught the flying apple, and showed a pleasant smile, "You see, Xiaoqing is really obedient." ”
Dad, Grandpa, Grandpa: "......"
When everyone left to take a nap, Ning Zhiwei asked her grandfather in private, "Grandpa, I want to go and see Guan Shanyue, the friend I met in the park last time, do you know where her family lives?" ”
According to the address provided by her grandfather, she found Guan Shanyue's home, but it was the Guan family's maid who received her, and after she explained her intentions, the other party replied worriedly, "It's not the right time for you to come, Miss had an accident yesterday, and now she is being rescued in the hospital." ”
Ning Zhiwei suddenly had a bad premonition.
She hurried to the hospital, and what she saw was the haggard and gray face of the Guan family, "Grandpa Guan, Guan Shanyue is ......"
"Ning girl, it's you."
Grandpa Guan was much older than last time, and his cloudy and dull gaze fell on her, but there was no focus, "Yueyue is still rescuing inside, and her life is in danger." ”
Ning Zhiwei expanded her divine sense into it, and saw Guan Shanyue in the operating table, her pale skin was faintly blue, her body was stiff, and although the doctor kept pacing her, the ECG still couldn't stop it from becoming straight.
Her blood had been emptied of it, like those dead paranormal beings in the Sanctuary.
"Bat ......"
The electrocardiogram sounded dripping, Guan Shanyue's eyes widened, and she passed away unwillingly and painfully.
Ning Zhi abruptly withdrew his gaze and looked at the Guan family who knew nothing outside the operating room, they were still anxiously looking and praying, hoping that it would be a miracle after the surgeries were opened.
However, the door of the operating room was indeed opened, and the doctor was greeted with a look of pity, "The patient has died after ineffective rescue." ”
The wail sounded without warning, and a woman who looked like Guan Shanyue's mother was so crazy that she was about to break into the operating room, but was stopped by the doctor, and the scene was so noisy and chaotic that no one even cared about the old man next to her.
Grandpa Guan suffers from high blood pressure, and the moment he first heard the bad news, his blood pressure soared instantly, but fortunately, Ning Zhiwei has been paying attention to his feelings, even if he resolved it for him, it didn't cause a tragedy, but despite this, he still couldn't stand the stimulation and fainted.
The pain and sorrow of the Guan family have gone away, and after Ning Zhiwei left the hospital, he still couldn't erase the astringency and sadness that lingered in his heart.
In the eyes of the monks, mortals are fragile, they are easily dominated by life and death, seven emotions and six desires, and even fall into it and cannot extricate themselves, too strong feelings are incomprehensible to the monks who advocate too much forgetfulness, because for them, a hundred years is just a time of retreat, and death is just a reincarnation.
Only by going deep into the lives of mortals can we deeply understand the miracle and wonder of their lives, and in just a hundred years, they have experienced the decay of life and the changes of world affairs, and naturally brought with them the wisdom and transparency given by their experience, from which they can peek into the true nature of the Dao.
For example, she has only lived in this realm for a short year, but she has gained far more than in the past few decades, which is the feeling that the cultivation realm cannot give her.
Not only did she change her face, but even her temperament was completely different from before, and she wondered if the master would be able to recognize her as an apprentice when she returned to the cultivation realm.
There is a touch of amazement that cannot be waved away in my heart.
