Chapter 150
Ling Suxue's face was white, but the tanned skin made her face change not obvious. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info took a deep breath, quietly brushed his messy heart, looked at the Tree of Wisdom calmly and open-mindedly, and calmly responded: "Okay, as long as you can recover your lost legs, you can take as many years of life as you want from me." ”
Hearing this, the Wisdom Tree was slightly shocked. Most of the people who came here to beg him learned that their life would be taken away, and they either beat their chests or cried and grabbed the ground, grabbing his rough bark and begging for less lifespan.
However, except for a few drops of sweat on her head, Ling Suxue's expression was extremely calm and light, as if she had taken away not her lifespan, but an insignificant hair. Although she was silent for a long time, her heart was overturned, and it took a while to clean up her mood and look at the Wisdom Tree and ask, "I don't know what method you will use to restore your lost legs?" ”
The Wisdom Tree was stunned for a moment, thinking that she would ask how much life she had lost, but she didn't expect that she had always cared about Ailang's affairs in her heart, and sighed lightly with emotion: "I will let the spirit bird borrow two snow-long lotus roots from Taiyi Zhenren, and then use the immortal law to transform it into a pair of beautiful legs." Then, with the help of the spirit bird, the fox king can get back on his feet. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but bend down a branch to stroke Ling Suxue's head kindly, and continued: "Although the legs made of lotus root are not as good as the original, they are more than enough to stand and walk. So Su Xue, you go back first, and when you go to Fengshun Demon Mountain in fifty days, I guarantee that the fox king can stand in front of you in the wind. ”
Ling Suxue nodded lightly, but did not leave immediately, knelt down for a long time, and pleaded: "Can you not tell the death of this matter?" ”
The Tree of Wisdom was stunned and nodded in agreement. Then squinting at the light of his eyes, he instructed the yellow feather bird who was squinting and napping in the bird's nest on the fork of the tree, and said lightly: "Miss Ling has orders, everything is kept secret." ”
The spirit bird shook its oily and slippery wings and gestured in agreement.
After a while, Ling Suxue bowed again, got up and left gloomily.
The Wisdom Tree looked at her delicate and soft back and couldn't help but call, "You don't want to know how much life you have left? ”
Ling Suxue didn't stop, only shook her head slightly: "Although I am a mortal now, I have lived for nearly three thousand years before, which is enough for me. So there's no need to worry about lifespan. ”
She can see that thanks to the fact that she has seen a lot of birth, old age, sickness and death in the mortal world over the years, she has realized some of the true meaning of life, not that the longer the life, the more meaningful life will be. On the contrary, some short-lived ghosts who work tirelessly for their lives and families are more meaningful to survive than long-lived rice worms that eat and wait for death.
So she's just a little sad, not so dark that she's not going to get dark.
The Tree of Wisdom looked at her back stupidly, weighing it in his heart, and when she was far away and winding into a thin line, he still couldn't help but let the wind send the last word.
"You only have five years left to live."
Ling Suxue was stunned, her slender body stopped in the breeze, and after a long time, she slowly turned her head to look at the Tree of Wisdom and said gratefully, "Thank you." ”
Instead of blindly not knowing how long you can live, it is better to know the time you have left and use the remaining time to live up to each day. So she wants to be thankful.
However, this kind of tragic thing, she can only let herself know about it. So when she returned to the boat that fluctuated with the waves, Yin Yan asked about the situation, she only smiled and responded lightly: "It's smooth, I only lost a little bit of something that doesn't hurt." ”
Yin Yan naturally didn't believe it, he heard that there was a truth that there would be gains and losses, it was not a trivial matter to be reborn with a pair of legs, how could the Wisdom Tree be so easily satisfied, so he asked: "Su Xue, are you afraid that I will be worried, so you don't dare to tell the truth about what you have lost?" ”
Ling Suxue immediately shook her head like a rattle, retracted the sadness in her eyes, and grinned, like the sun overhead: "The Wisdom Tree is capable of Haoran, and it is a small thing for him to be reborn with a pair of legs, so he didn't ask for anything from me too much." So I came back completely. ”
She deliberately smiled even brighter when she finished saying the whole four words.
Yin Yan's face froze, and the more she smiled, the more frightened he felt, but he didn't dare to interrupt the smile on her face, so he didn't ask any more questions, pulled her onto the boat, turned the bow of the boat, and sailed towards the north shore.
An hour later, the ship quickly approached the shore.
In order to facilitate walking in the world, Yin Yan put away the dragon horns on his forehead, and transformed into a simple dress to accompany Ling Suxue to return the boat. Then he adhered to the mentality of sending the Buddha to the west, and sent her back to Yutian Village in the clouds, and after a few words, he returned by the wind.
At this moment, the sunset is infinitely extended, the smoke of Yutian Village is curling, and every household is busy with dinner, so there are not many people on the mud road and alleys.
Lingsuxue looked at the quiet village, and felt very kind in her heart. After leaving for two months, he returned as if he was newly married, and pushed open the door of his hut with some excitement. Seeing that my sister and Xiaoying were eating in the hall, I said with tears in my eyes: "I'm back!" ”
The two people at the table were stunned for a moment, and immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks and got up to greet them. Ling Mubing's belly was bigger again, so he walked slowly.
Han Xiaoying ran to Ling Suxue's side first, and after looking up and down like a monkey, she said with a sour nose: "You are dark, and your clothes are rotten." After that, she carried her half-full stomach and walked towards Ling Suxue's bedroom, and said, "You finally came back, I'll find you two changes of clothes, and then boil water to take a bath." ”
After a cup of tea, she hurried to the backyard with a stack of clean clothes.
Ling Suxue thanked her movingly, and then pulled Ling Mubing back to the table and sat down, and said a little bit about the experience of the past two months.
Ran Ling Mubing didn't want to hear her describe the mountain flowers and wild grasses she met along the way, interrupted her, and went straight to the point: "What did the Wisdom Tree ask for?" ”
Ling Mubing's flickering eyes sank suddenly, and his heart seemed to be pinched, but in an instant, he regained his crystal-like brilliance, pretending to be light and light: "Sister, the Wisdom Tree didn't want me to ask for anything. ”
"Impossible." Ling Mubing's expression was resolute.
Ling Suxue sighed in her heart, if she didn't make up a reason, she would definitely get to the bottom of it, so after thinking about it for a while, she smiled and said, "He asked me for a little life." ”
"How much?" Ling Mubing leaned forward eagerly.
"Five years." Ling Suxue said lightly.
Ling Mubing was obviously relieved, but still unhappy: "Although five years is not a long time, as a mortal, it is also a long time. ”
"Yes, five years is not long, but it is not short." Ling Suxue followed her words and said, suddenly her mouth was a little dry, so she poured a cup of tea and drank the sorrow in her heart, and continued: "As long as you can stand up again, what if you have five years less life. Maybe he will practice the demon path with him on a whim, so that I can still live forever in the world. ”
With that, she laughed dryly. Among them, the sour Ling Mubing saw it in his eyes, but he did not pierce it.
As long as it's okay, it's worth it.
