Suddenly, Mu Qiubai's body shook.

He sat down on the ground, and in his memory, the high-spirited young man had become like this.

Qin Xueyi looked at him, he also looked at Qin Xueyi, she didn't shed tears, and she didn't care much, as if everything had changed.

"Take this, let's go. ”

Qin Xueyi knew that the two of them were no longer people of the same world, she was an immortal in the sky, and he was just an old man who was about to enter the earth.

However, as a former husband and wife, she still gave him a bottle of elixir, a bottle of longevity pill that can slightly increase a person's lifespan.

"Do you still have this?"

Mu Qiubai ignored the falling pill porcelain bottle, what he cared about was the delicate wooden figure that Qin Xueyi took out from his sleeve.

The wooden figure was a man, it had been waxed, and it had been intact for nearly eighty years, and it was evident that its owner had taken great care of it.

'This man is for you, and this woman is for me, and we will never be separated.' ’

"I used to look like this. ”

Looking at the male wooden figure in his hand, recalling the previous agreement in his mind, Mu Qiubai took out a female wooden figure from his arms, it was also well preserved, and it was still so cute and beautiful.

"The bottle contains longevity pills, a total of nine, one can increase the longevity of ten years, but mortals can only eat 9. ”

Qin Xueyi's voice was as ethereal as an immortal: "You can't do it, you have no spiritual materials, and you won't be able to get into the immortal path in this life." ”

After that, Qin Xueyi gave Mu Qiubai some treasures in the mortal world, saying, "These things should allow you to live a rich life." ”

"I... ”

Looking at these things, like the gift of an immortal, Mu Qiubai said: "It's not for these things. ”

"I know. ”

Qin Xueyi said: "But we are destined to be impossible... ”

"Smack. ”

The wooden figure was thrown down by Qin Xueyi and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Don't you want it?"

"Don't. ”

The three words fell on Mu Qiubai's heart, but they were like a knife.

But he didn't say anything, just silently picked up the wooden figures on the ground, put the two wooden figures into a pair, and cherished them in his arms.

"If you don't want it, then give it to me, I want it. ”

Saying that, Mu Qiubai opened the porcelain bottle, he was not hypocritical, he ate one, it was indeed a treasure of the fairy family, just a belly, it made him feel like he was ten years younger.

"Don't eat too much of this pill. ”

Qin Xueyi had already cut off the red dust now, but looking at the old man's movements, she still subconsciously said: "A year, you can only eat one, if you lose it, you, you can come to me again, every year today, I will come here." ”

"Thank you. ”

Once upon a time, the man who could shelter her from the wind and rain, like a piece of sky, no longer exists.

Today's Mu Qiubai is just an ordinary man, but she has become an immortal who turns her hands into clouds and covers her hands into rain, and Mu Qiubai is happy for Qin Xueyi.

Really, he was so happy for his wife.

Mu Qiubai turned around, Qin Xueyi had already left, just as suddenly as when she came, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"If you cultivate immortals, you want to forget to be a human being, then this immortal. ”

Mu Qiubai looked at the fairy gate, then turned around, and walked down the mountain step by step without nostalgia: "It's okay if you don't repair... ”

??

Time flies, Mu Qiubai went down the mountain, but did not go far, but chose to live in a small village near the mountain.

Perhaps, he still has some thoughts about Qin Xueyi, or maybe he is just tired and doesn't want to leave.

After all, even if Mu Qiubai can really return to his hometown, seventy-eight years have passed, and his parents and friends have passed away.

If you don't have a home, can you still call it home?

"Grandpa, do you know how to read?"

"Recognize. ”

"How many do you know?"

"Many. ”

"How many are there?"

She looked curiously at the old man who was gradually regaining his youth, of course, he was still an old man, but he was in good spirits: "Many, just many... ”

Her name is girl, she has no name, she is the name given to her by her grandfather, her name is Qingling.

Qingling is nine years old this year, and he is a cattle herding baby from a farmer's family at the foot of the mountain.

By the way, her family has a very big green cow, the green cow likes to eat aquatic plants, it is so big, but it is very well-behaved, really well-behaved.

"Moo. ”

Qing Ling likes to listen to its call, and while listening, he will laugh and quip: "The big buffalo eats water and grass, plows the rice fields, and has a full stomach." ”

Qing Ling admires the old man who lives outside the village and likes to listen to his stories.

The old man's hands are very skillful, and the dishes, chopsticks, tables and chairs made are particularly good, Qingling thinks that his grandfather is so powerful, and he is the most powerful person in the world.

Just like the legendary immortals...

Gradually, the girl grew up.

And the gray-haired old man is getting younger and younger.

Although he is still very old, Qingling feels that his grandfather is getting more and more powerful.

He can make the green cow speak, and he can take her hand and walk on the river.

They were sitting on a cliff as high as the clouds, and the grandfather said, this is called meditation, it is a kind of practice, and the spirit asked, is it the same as the immortals?

Whenever this happens, Grandpa is silent for a while, but shakes his head with a smile.

"People don't practice to become immortals. ”

The old grandfather told her: "But you understand why you are human." ”

Qingling doesn't understand, but what Grandpa said must be right.

So, Grandpa asked her to meditate, and he meditated himself, and in this way, day after day, they watched the rising sun every day, saw the tide rise and tide, and sometimes, when they were tired, they would lie down on the grassy slope and count the stars together.

Those days were the happiest time in Qingling's life, just like dreaming.

Of course, it's not only good, but also a little bad, for example, the big green cow, it has become bad, and it refuses to eat the aquatic plants fed by Qingling...

??

A few years passed.

Qingling grew up, she seemed to have become very powerful, once when she encountered a wild beast, she picked up a branch and easily drove them away.

Grandpa is getting younger and younger, becoming as old as Qingling's father, as if, not so old.

So at this time, Qingling began to think, she had a lot of questions.

Where did he come from?

Why come here?

Also, cultivating immortals, what is it for?

"I'm leaving. ”

On that day, he said to Qingling, who had come to him as usual, "I plan to go to the outside world to see." ”

What parting is, Qingling doesn't understand.

But when he thought that Mu Qiubai would leave, Qing Ling was reluctant for a while: "Don't go, I don't want you to go." ”

After several years of companionship, the two are like grandchildren, father and daughter, like master and apprentice, with deep feelings, for Mu Qiubai, it was the appearance of Qingling that took him out of those sad years and regained the laughter of his youth.

This innocent girl who doesn't understand anything is the starting point for him to start anew.

"Where you go, I will go. ”

Qingling didn't hesitate, she grabbed Mu Qiubai's hand tightly.

Qingling at that time didn't know too many feelings, she only knew that she was with Mu Qiubai, very happy and relieved.

"Outside, there can be danger. ”

"You will protect me," Qingling said firmly, "With you, I am not afraid of anything!"

Qing Ling didn't know what the outside world was like, but she knew that he was the most powerful, his hands were always so warm, no matter when, he was by her side.

"Moo... ”

The big green cow barked, and it also went and went together.

So, after saying goodbye to Qingling's parents, with their permission, they walked out of the mountain village.

Qing Ling will not forget that day, he rode on the back of the green ox, Qing Ling sat in front of him, and then together...

Moo moo.

Why did you steal it again?

Hurry up, hurry, hurry, we have to go to see the beautiful sea of flowers, we have to go to the snowfield to build a snowman, we have to find an oasis in the desert, and we have to do many, many things.

Moo moo.

"Let's go, let's go out and play, hehehe... ”

Mu Qiubai took the girl, listening to her silver bell-like laughter, he smiled, just like facing the woman he once was, smiling gently.
