Chapter Twenty-Six: Look at the Moon

Hearing that the old woman regarded soul summoning as a sparse and ordinary ability, Fang Zhong's heart moved, and he asked, "Mother-in-law, do you have any requirements for soul summoning?" ”

The old woman said: "If you want to resurrect the soul, you naturally can't do without the physical body, if the physical body is destroyed, even if the Great Luo Immortal comes in person, there is nothing you can do." ”

Fang Zhong was disappointed, his parents' bodies had already been destroyed, leaving only the two souls in the gourd, wouldn't it be hopeless to resurrect.

The old woman looked at the sleeping fairy in Fang Zhong's arms, saw that she had a delicate face, she had not yet grown up, but she had married a wife, remembering that she had lived for so many years but was still lonely, and sighed lightly: "The old body has been wasted for more than 300 years, thinking that she was still a daughter, traveling around the mountains and rivers, how carefree she was, it was really vague in the past, and it was unbearable to look back." "Dry hands touch the head, look at the gray hair, and sigh.

Fang Zhong was surprised: "More than three hundred years? ”

The old woman rolled her eyes and said, "What's so strange about this, you live in the world, linger in the dust, and naturally don't know the differences between cultivators. If you also have the heart of steadfast cultivation and cultivate to the realm of refining the void, it will not be difficult to live for hundreds of years. You need to know that if you can't even live these lifespans, how can you go through any catastrophe. ”

Pu Xuan asked, "I don't know what kind of realm my mother-in-law is now?" ”

The old woman smiled faintly and said: "The old body is always so far away from the avenue, there should be no hope in this life." "Although it seems a little lost in the mouth of the old woman, but in the ears of Puxuan and Dingguan is already a great master, I often hear people say that the people who have become the avenue can no longer be measured by the realm, you need to know that the mundane world, refining the gods and the void is already the highest realm, and the people who can reach the immortal period of refining the gods and the void are already the people who will become the great road, as long as they have survived the catastrophe, they will gather three flowers, the five qi will be yuan, the sun will rise, and they will leave the mortal dust forever. This old woman said that she was still a cut away from the Great Dao, so didn't it mean that her realm was also quite high, at least it should be to the point of refining the gods and returning to the void, but I don't know if it is Nirvana or the period of extinction.

Pu Xuan sighed and said: "Poor Dao such a humble Tunai kung fu, even if you are proficient, it is already a blessing to live to be 100 years old, where will you go through any heavenly calamities?" I don't seek to become immortals, but I want worldly glory, and I can pass it on to future generations, so I will be content. ”

The old woman said: "You are a straightforward person, everyone has a utilitarian heart, and the grandiose is better than the people who are high and thin in their mouths, and there are many people who tend to be inflammatory." However, if you stay here for a long time in the future, you should still put away your utilitarian heart, and have an old body here, which will help you wait for your cultivation to reach a higher level, and it will be easy to live for one or two hundred years. At that time, Xian'er and her grandson-in-law will also be older, and they will know how to take care of themselves, and they will be much more relieved even if they die. ”

Fang Zhong said: "Do you really want to live here for a hundred or two hundred years? ”

Seeing that Fang Zhong still had the intention of leaving, the old woman said angrily: "Bastard! My granddaughter was married to you, and you just got married, and you want to leave, where do you put the old body and my granddaughter? He picked up the vine crutches, knocked Fang Zhong on the thigh a few times, and said viciously: "If you escape, I will definitely break your legs if you are caught." Even if you are a crippled, you will be with me for the rest of your life. ”

Fang Zhong saw that the old woman suddenly became angry, so he had to be speechless.

Pu Xuan and Dingguan hurriedly persuaded: "The newcomer is young, and he blurts out that his heart is straightforward, and his mother-in-law forgives him." ”

The old woman chirped: "The old body hates the most forgetful people! Boy, if you are half-hearted, your mother-in-law will not let you go. Fang Zhong's face turned pale. The old woman took Xian'er from Fang Zhong's hand and went back to the room.

The afterglow is not over, the sunset is like fire, and the whole forest is also smeared with a layer of red.

The old woman came out of the room on crutches, walked to Puxuan and Dingguan, and said with a smile: "The two of you have been busy for a day, it is really hard, although it is due, but the old body can't be too demanding, come, come, enjoy some festive melons and fruits together." On the green grass in the open space in front of the house, the picked melons and fruits and some self-made pastries were spread out, and the two of them were invited to sit on the ground. That fairy was still sleeping, and only Fang Zhong came out alone.

The old woman said: "The granddaughter's wedding event is in a hurry, and she is a little lazy, but I and other people in the mountains don't have to pay attention to worldly etiquette, please use it." Pu Xuan and the others thanked them, tasted the melons and fruits carefully, and saw the old woman's kind demeanor, so they dared to chew with confidence.

The old woman said to Dingguan: "You are a Taoist, my life is saved by me, have you ever thought about how to repay it?" ”

Dingguan hurriedly said: "Mother-in-law has a life-saving grace for the poor road, and the command is that Dingguan has no complaints." ”

The old woman nodded and said, "Okay, good, the old body likes people who know how to repay their kindness." The old woman said again: "Son-in-law ......"

The old woman screamed a few times, and Fang Zhong realized that it was himself who had called, and hurriedly responded: "Mother-in-law called me?" ”

The old woman snorted coldly and said, "Now that I entrust my granddaughter to you, you won't be a white-eyed wolf, and take advantage of the old man's absence, so you will lose Xian'er and run away alone?" ”

Fang Zhong hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, Xian'er is ignorant and needs someone to take care of her, I can bear to abandon her." ”

The old woman rolled her eyes and said, "What do you understand?" Are you a little stupid and unworthy of being your wife? Hum! Marriage is destined, since you have become a husband and wife, when you are not deceived for the rest of your life, get along with each other, love and love each other and grow old together, no one can look down on each other. The red line has been tied, and it cannot be changed, and you cannot go back. If you let your mother-in-law know that you abandoned Xian'er, the old body will turn into a ghost, and she will also come to you to theorize and settle accounts with you! The old woman suddenly stared at her and reprimanded her fiercely.

Fang Zhong hurriedly said: "The younger generation will never abandon Xian'er. ”

The old woman's anger decreased slightly, and she said: "The old body is entangled in some mundane affairs, if you want to go out once at night, and don't come back for a while, you all have to wait for your life, and you can't let the fairy be frightened." ”

Pu Xuan and the others were stunned and agreed, and asked, "Mother-in-law also has mundane affairs?" ”

The old woman said: "Decades of constant grievances, is it considered mundane? ”

Pu Xuan smiled: "Naturally, forget it, a person who lives as long as a mother-in-law is afraid that there are more mundane affairs than anyone else." ”

The old woman smiled, got up and whistled, and the black pig in the distance ran over with a chirp. The old woman turned around, jumped on the pig's back, looked up to see that the sky was about to darken, and said to Pu Xuan and others: "Everyone has a word first, the old body can trust you and wait, so you can leave for a while, if you deceive my granddaughter to be pure and ignorant, do something against the will of the old body, hehe...... "The vine crutch hit the pig stock, the black pig snorted, and the sound of tapping went away."

In an instant, the golden crow fell and the sunset dispersed, and the jade rabbit had gradually risen eastward, and the bright light sprinkled down.

in the cellar of the house. There are beds, chairs and some storage items in the cellar, and there are many wooden boxes and cabinets, with a faint smell of wood. The bed was a stone bed, and many runes were drawn around it. There are three copper oil lamps at the head of the bed and seven oil lamps at the end of the bed, but now only one at the head of the bed and one at the end of the bed are lit. The faint light shook slightly, and Xian'er was sleeping comfortably on the stone bed, her long black hair scattered on the bed, as if draped in a layer of black satin.

Not long after Fang Zhong sat at the head of the bed, the fairy sighed, woke up, slowly opened her eyes, saw Fang Zhong sitting next to her, and said lazily: "Husband, where is the mother-in-law?" ”

Fang Zhongdao: "Mother-in-law said that she had something to do and went out for a while, and she will come back soon." ”

Xian'er said coquettishly: "I'll go find my mother-in-law." He got down from the stone bed, and wore no outer clothes, but walked barefoot to the stone steps. Fang Zhong hurriedly took his clothes and took them out on his heels.

Out of the house, Xian'er raised her head, looked at the clear moonlight with a blurred gaze, and said happily: "Xian'er likes the moon." "I found a thick trunk, the trunk is not high, and after Xian'er climbed up with her hands and feet, her two little jade-like feet hung down and dangled underneath, sitting on the trunk and looking up at the night. Fang Zhong was worried that she would accidentally fall, so he also climbed up the tree trunk and sat down next to Xian'er, looking up at the stars in the sky together.

The moon is bright and the stars are shining.

Xian'er said dumbfoundedly: "If Xian'er can fly like a bird, how good it is." Flying to the moon, Xian'er hid, and even her mother-in-law could not be found. With that, he giggled.

Fang Zhong stared at her smile, sweet and immaculate, no one could connect this beautiful moment to an infatuated girl.

Fang Zhong said softly: "The moon in the sky is cold and deserted, if Xian'er hides it, she must be very lonely." ”

Xian'er said: "With my mother-in-law and husband accompanying Xian'er, I won't be alone." ”

Fang Zhong smiled and said, "But my mother-in-law and I won't always accompany Xian'er, let alone accompany you to the moon in the sky, one day, when my mother-in-law and I are gone, you will be alone." ”

Xian'er's sweet smile gradually faded, a trace of gloom floated on her pretty face, and she said stupidly: "Lonely? Is Xian'er also lonely? ”

Fang Zhong said with emotion: "Time is fleeting, the face will grow old, and no matter how close people are, they will be separated one day." Mother-in-law is like this, and so am I, at that time, Xian'er was left alone to stay here, looking at the moon alone, and there was no one to talk to you. ”

Xian'er's eyes were red, and she didn't have the heart to look at the moon anymore, she looked at Fang Zhong and said stupidly: "Xian'er don't want to be here alone." Leaned over and hugged Fang Zhong very tightly, as if he was really afraid that Fang Zhong would disappear in the blink of an eye.

Looking at Xian'er's innocent expression, Fang Zhong suddenly felt that what he said was stupid and regretful. The troubles of the world, originally found by themselves, the more things they have experienced, the more troubles they have, just ask a child who does not know the world, there is no city, no scheming, where will there be troubles, which is why innocent children will laugh, and precocious children will cry.

Fang Zhong had never been so relied on and relied on so much, a wave of pity rushed to his chest, and he slowly raised his hand and stroked Xian'er's hair.

Suddenly, someone behind him sneered: "What a concubine, it's better to stay away from the poor road, so as not to spoil the amorous feelings." ”

As soon as Fang Zhong turned around, he saw Pu Xuan holding a fixed view, with his burden on his back, dressed as a long journey. Fang Zhongqi said: "Dao Chief, where are you going?" ”

Pu Xuan pulled Dingguan and took two steps, came to Fang Zhong, raised his head and said, "Come down quickly, I have something to tell you." ”

Fang Zhong jumped off the tree trunk, and Pu Xuan leaned over Fang Zhong and whispered in his ear: "Go and pack your things, take advantage of the absence of your mother-in-law, we won't say goodbye." ”

Fang Zhong exclaimed, "Did you escape?" ”

Pu Xuan said: "What escaped? We are not guilty people, it is the mother-in-law who insists on staying together, you and I have our own affairs, it doesn't matter if we accompany each other for a day or two, do we accompany each other for a lifetime? ”

Dingguan said: "Mother-in-law saved my life, say goodbye to reason, senior brother, you go by yourself, I will stay and serve the old woman to repay her kindness." ”

Pu Xuan said angrily: "En naturally wants to repay him, but he didn't say that he has to be a slave and a servant." If the foundation of the ancestor is destroyed by our hands, is it over? You have repaid the kindness of your mother-in-law, have you repaid the kindness of your teacher? "I was dumbfounded for a while. Pu Xuan said: "After I go out, if the foundation is successful, I should think about repaying the kindness, and then I will find this place, or treat each other with gifts, or take my mother-in-law and her granddaughter to a comfortable place to enjoy happiness, and my mother-in-law will be happy." Dingguan couldn't say that Puxuan, but he shook his head with a bitter face and said: "It's not proper, it's not proper." "I can't say what's wrong.

Pu Xuan said to Fang Zhong again: "If you want to go to Kunlun, how can you live here." Since you said goodbye to me and went on the road alone, Poor Dao has thought about it, since you took you out, you must be responsible to the end, and you should be sent to Kunlun. ”

Fang Zhong heard that Pu Xuan was willing to send himself to Kunlun, this was an idea that he had never forgotten, and he was centrifuged by Pu Xuan's words, and turned his head to Xian'er and said, "Xian'er, it's cool outside, I'll go back with you." He pulled Xian'er back to the cellar in the house, let her sit at the head of the bed, and told her not to walk around, but he quietly went out.

Pu Xuan said: "Poor Dao has seen the celestial phenomena, this mountain is located in the south, the north is the river, we will extend the river to the north, will be able to reach Shu directly." ”

Dingguan doubted: "Do you want to think about it again?" ”

Pu Xuan scolded: "If you hesitate like this, the daylilies are cold, just listen to the senior brother's orders." ”

Fang Zhong couldn't help but be pulled by Pu Xuan and walked a few steps, but he heard the voice of the fairy behind him and called timidly: "Husband, where are you going?" ”

As soon as Fang Zhong turned around, he saw Xian'er standing alone at the door, looking at him suspiciously. Fang Zhong snorted, "I'...... I...... Go back to the house and rest in peace, and wait for your mother-in-law to come back with you. Xian'er stood in a daze, and when she heard the words of leaving, there was a trace of worry and fear in her eyes.

Xian'er took two steps, caught up and grabbed Fang Zhong and said, "Xian'er doesn't want to be alone, but also accompany her husband to watch the moon." ”

A tear ran down his cheek, fell, and dripped on his hand. Xian'er was stunned, raised her hand to look at the teardrops, the tears were crystal clear, clear as jade, and slowly melted away, becoming a puddle of water stains.

"Is it raining?"

Xian'er began to look at the night sky, the night sky was deep, and the moon hung in the sky.

Another tear fell, Xian'er suddenly realized it, and her little hand slowly touched it, and two tears flowed on Ruyu's cheeks.

She wiped her face, surprised by the tears on her face. She didn't know why these tears fell.

When a person is born, he cries, but the person who cries at that time does not know why he is crying. Some people say that people are born into this world because of the calamity and suffering of the world, so the moment of birth means the beginning of suffering, so they will cry and cry. Some people say that at the beginning of reincarnation, Meng Po soup will be forgotten as soon as they drink it, and many people are unwilling to forget the things of their past lives, and their hearts ache that the past has passed, so they cry bitterly and cry until they return to the yang world, and then usher in a new beginning.

Cry once, grow up once. Cry once and learn more about this world.

Xian'er looked at the wet marks on her hands in a daze, and said stupidly: "What is this?" ”

Fang Zhong looked at Xian'er's stupid appearance, his heart suddenly turned upside down, the tide of thought was surging, stirring his heart, Fang Zhong said softly: "Husband don't go, accompany Xian'er to watch the moon......"
