Chapter 13 The old man has something to ask for
"I don't know what the old man is calling for here?"
I took a few steps closer, followed the example of Boda, and bowed to him and asked.
"Little brother, are you going to the top of Lingyun Mountain to worship the Purple Lotus Immortal Monarch as a teacher?"
"yes, yes!" I nodded and said, "Is the old man also going up the mountain to worship the Purple Lotus Immortal Monarch as a teacher?" ”
Could it be that the apprentice really only needs to be a man, and there is really no limit to this age range?
I was full of doubts, and I saw the old man drawing closer and closer to me.
The skin on his face was dry and ravine, folded and tightly piled together like old bark, short and withered, and a little frighteningly thin, his hands were bulging outwards with green tendons, and his skin was black.
When I saw his appearance clearly, I, a little carp who had cultivated for more than 3,000 years, couldn't help but stand up at the moment.
He opened his mouth and smiled: "Little brother is laughing, the old man is old, how can he still have the heart of cultivating to become an immortal, calling the little brother at this moment is because the old man has something to ask for, and I hope the little brother can help." ”
"It turns out that you have something to ask for."
I smiled kindly, thinking that as long as I didn't come to grab the purple lotus with me, I asked, "But it doesn't hurt for you to say, if you can help you, you will definitely do your best to help you." ”
Don't ask for any elixir of immortality, if you ask for that elixir, it is estimated that even if I ask for it, people will not necessarily give it to me, maybe I will be angry for a while, and I will be driven down the mountain by chasing me all the way to the mountain to seek a teacher.
The old man stretched out his hand and took out a small black wooden box in his sleeve, raised his head, and said to me with tears in his eyes: "This little black wooden box contains the ashes of the old man's hard-working grandson. ”
"Huh?"
I was startled and quickly took a step back.
When the old man saw me like this, he explained, "Since he is a dead man who has turned to ashes, what is there to be afraid of, and the little brother does not need to be afraid. ”
"That's a very bad remark, I'm really sorry."
Facing the old man, I felt a little guilty in my heart, the person in the box was his grandson, and he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, but at this moment, in front of this box of ashes, I avoided it like this, for him, I am afraid that it is really uncomfortable in my heart.
The old man nodded, and said: "The old grandson, because of a snake demon bewildered and died, and finally ended up with no bones, in this life, the soul has been eaten by the snake demon, and the three souls and seven spirits have been crippled." The old man came here today to think that he could bring his grandson's ashes to this immortal, and asked the immortals above to be merciful and appreciate a few drops of fairy dew to the old grandson, so as to help the old grandson to surpass as soon as possible and have a lifetime of reincarnation. ”
As he spoke, he shed two lines of slightly cloudy tears, which were really pitiful in his eyes.
I was thinking about it, but unexpectedly, the old man suddenly knelt down towards me.
"The old man is old, and his legs and feet are not good, ask the little brother for help, take the ashes of the old grandson to the top of the mountain and hand them over to the Purple Lotus Immortal, ask him for help, the little old man is here to kowtow to you."
As he spoke, the old man kowtowed desperately to the ground, fortunately, the weeds on the ground were quite thick, otherwise, with his desperate strength, I am afraid that his head would break and bleed in a few strokes.
It's a bit of a dilemma for me. I think that although I had a relationship with Zilian, it was more than a thousand years ago, and I had not yet cultivated into a human form at that time, and he had never seen me transform into a human form. Now, after thousands of years, it is estimated that he doesn't even remember the carp.
Now, if I had done this, I am afraid that I might not be able to do it.
