Li Yan's heart was stunned, his chest was instantly empty, and his entire brain was in chaos, and there seemed to be a lot of fragments flashed, and there seemed to be nothing.
For a moment, Li Yan couldn't find his father's appearance, and it took a lot of effort to recover some, and then it gradually became clear, and all the memories came back.
He has wondered countless times what he will be like when his parents die. He definitely won't cry, he feels that he has understood what death is, and he shouldn't be too uncomfortable, because his parents are not cultivators, so death is inevitable, and this is also the result of his parents' choice.
Li Yan thought of countless answers and were all denied by him one by one, no matter how he said that he had already come into contact with the Dao, it should be the performance of a cultivator, and when the matter really came, all the answers he thought about did not appear, and this was the only feeling he had when he was empty.
When Li Yan came back to his senses, he mechanically thanked the comer, and his mind became confused again, he thought that maybe he should go back now, and vaguely felt that it shouldn't be so early, and he didn't know what he should do.
Li Yuanwu glanced at him, let out a long sigh, still didn't say anything, turned around and escorted the person down the mountain.
After Li Yuanwu left, Li Yan stayed there for a long time, and suddenly he took out the two poles and started to play quickly, he didn't know why he did this, but his heart changed a little every time he played.
Li Yan didn't know how long he played that day, he didn't think about a single move in his heart, but the trick was extremely smooth, until he used all his strength, panted and lay on his back on the stone, letting the sweat flow to all parts of his face, and then he packed his things and went home.
Li Yan's father walked very peacefully, his mother stayed by his side, groomed him, and then took his hand and looked at him, his mother's expression was still very peaceful, but there was a trace of loneliness in her eyes.
The mother kept this position for a long time, and finally sighed softly, touched his father's face, and smiled, Li Yan felt that it was the most beautiful scenery he had ever seen.
At that moment, Li Yan also seemed to have disappeared something in his heart, and the whole person was a lot more relaxed, what he didn't understand was when the disappeared things appeared and what they were.
With everyone's help, Li Yan's father's funeral ended quickly, and there was no essential difference between the funeral in their clan and the rest of the world, and relatives and friends all gathered together to remember the deceased.
Although the clansmen have given up their cultivation, they are all people with wisdom roots, and their behavior is very different from that of mortals, who are more or less afraid of death, and they instinctively think that if they die, they will disappear, and when they die, there will be nothing.
For most of the dead, all traces of him in this world will slowly be erased until he is completely covered by something else, as if he had never appeared.
There is still some grief for his relatives, and a large part of their grief comes from their own direct connection with the deceased, and most of this connection is the feeling obtained from the deceased or something that cannot be seen.
Although they are reluctant to admit it, this grief comes more from themselves, and has little to do with the deceased, as for those close relatives, they must be very sad in a short time.
This sadness is at first entirely for the sake of the deceased, and before they know it, they may feel much the same as those of outsiders, and they may not be used to it for a short time.
But time can consume something, no matter how heartbreaking you were at the beginning, such things happen all the time in the world, and disappear every minute, and so on and so forth.
The people of the Rui tribe, like all mortals, know that death is inevitable, and they truly understand, because they understand and do not do stupid things.
They never deliberately slow down the arrival of death, nor do they have any fear, and even they treat death as an after-dinner conversation, from the gray-haired old man to the babbling child.
If you're lucky enough to be here, you'll always see a family gathered around to discuss what happens to the oldest person in between, and the person being consulted is not only involved, but also the final decision-maker.
The most important thing is that they treat this simple as a small family meeting, there are always bursts of laughter from time to time, you don't have to think of it as a strange thing, your fear often comes from ignorance, when you really understand it, you will find a lot of things interesting.
After burying his father, Li Yan went home to take care of his mother with a look of affection to his master, he didn't say anything, Li Yuanwu didn't ask, just let him go after a few simple instructions.
Mother's feelings for her father are different from others, although she knows very well in her heart, but after all, a person who has lived with you for hundreds of years can no longer accompany you, you can't see him when you open your eyes, you can't hear his voice when you wake up in the middle of the night, how can you have a process of adaptation.
For more than a year after my father left, my mother's mood was very lost, as I said earlier, this loss was mostly caused by unaccustomed feelings, and then gradually improved.
In the following decades, Li Yan stayed with this mother until the day she also died, the day before her mother died, she called Li Yan to the bedside, and their conversation was no different from usual, starting with the morning meal, talking about the mood, talking about the weather.
When all this was said, her mother stared at Li Yan's face, her eyes were full of smiles, she stared at Li Yan for a long time, Li Yan also looked at her, the two didn't say anything, time seemed to stop at that moment.
It seems that after a long time, the mother slowly raised her right hand and gently stroked Li Yan's face, like a mortal, the mother is already old, and her hands are full of wrinkles, not as smooth as when she was a child, but still so warm.
The mother's hand stayed on Li Yan's face for a while, her face was also full of smiles, her eyes were very warm, and the corners of her eyes occasionally flashed a little light, and then her mother sighed deeply and put her hand down.
"It's good that you're still so young, it's good."
Li Yan didn't know if her mother said this to herself or she was talking to herself, and Li Yan could hear it, her mother's voice seemed to tremble a little, after saying this, her mother gently leaned on the edge of the bed, her eyes were closed, Li Yan knew that she still had something to say to herself, and she didn't leave.
Sure enough, after a while, my mother's eyes opened again, sat up straight, looked at Li Yan with a smile, and asked slowly, "Do you know what day tomorrow is?" Li Yan also smiled and nodded.
Mother continued: "It's good to know, I'm very happy that you can come down to accompany me all these years, although I know that we will have to experience this day sooner or later, but it is really coming, and I am still a little reluctant in my heart. ”
Li Yan still didn't say anything, just subconsciously pulled her hand, her mother's hand was indeed very rough, Li Yan suddenly realized that this hand was so thin, completely different from his impression.
Li Yan then remembered that he hadn't held his parents' hands for many years, and he was no longer the child who pestered his parents, thinking about how fast time flies, especially with his parents, many things happened when he was a child, as if it happened yesterday, Li Yan's heart suddenly began to feel a little depressed, and he smiled awkwardly at his mother.
His mother seemed to see his thoughts, put her other hand on his hand, and gently rubbed it back and forth, Li Yan also took the opportunity to lower his head, and when Li Yan raised his head again, his mother still looked at him affectionately, Li Yan's heart was still a little depressed, and the moment he saw his mother's smile, there was more warm current.
Mother said, "I won't see you after tomorrow, which may not be a happy time for us, but for me I have been looking forward to it for a long time. ”
Li Yan didn't quite understand what it meant, and looked at her suspiciously, and her mother pulled out a hand and arranged a trace of white hair on her face behind her ear.
"Although we have never been afraid of death, I am still sad when your father is gone, after all, I have lived with him for so many years, eating and living together, although when I get along with him, there will always be some unpleasantness, but there are more happy times, originally two unrelated individuals, after a series of things, they lived into one, and suddenly one day this one will be separated, and two can live into one, but one cannot be divided into two anyway, only half is left."
The tears in his mother's eyes finally flowed, Li Yan couldn't fully understand what his mother meant, but the depression in his heart reached its peak, and his brows began to wrinkle.
Mother didn't notice the change in Li Yan and continued: "Later, you came to accompany me, although I still miss your father very much, but this longing is gradually replaced by other things, after all, I am still alive, and I have to continue to walk, although my feelings for your father have never changed, in fact, if you didn't come down the mountain to accompany me, I might go with your father." ”
Mother never said these words, and Li Yan never thought that his father's death would have such a big impact on his mother, Li Yan didn't understand, although his parents also understood some of the ways of heaven, after all, they lived according to everything of mortals.
They can calmly accept death itself, and they are no different from mortals in terms of other things brought by death, of course, these things are not understood by Li Yan, as for the reason is because he himself can't say clearly.
The mother leaned on the edge of the bed again, her eyes looked diagonally upward, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "My feelings for your father are suppressed by me, because he is dead and I am still alive, and if I live, I have been suppressed for decades, and finally I can't suppress it recently, but it doesn't matter, after all, tomorrow's day will come"
Mother said to pause, and looked at Li Yan again, "Although we are mother and son, you are a cultivator after all, you may not be able to understand what I said, I can accompany you at the last moment of my life, I have no regrets, and this life is complete." ”
That night, her mother said a lot of things, from her acquaintance with her father to the bits and pieces of Li Yan's childhood, Li Yan just listened carefully, rarely talked, and her thoughts followed her mother back to the past.
Finally dawn, when the first rays of sunlight shone on her mother's face through the window, her mother subconsciously reached out to block it, and then slowly put her hand into the beam, slowly shaking, looking carefully, the shadow of the hand was projected on the wall behind her, very beautiful.
Mother put down her hand and looked at Li Yan again, the smile on her face slowly emerged, under the sunlight, her mother's face became rosy, she gently closed her eyes, let the sun cover her face, and her expression was very happy.
"I'm going to find your father, I can't find it, I'll do my best, I'm going to tell him that I'm happy in the last few decades, our son is fine, I'm happy."
Mother didn't open her eyes when she said this, she was like a little grass bathing in the sun after the rain, very peaceful and content.
Li Yan didn't know when his mother stopped breathing, and it wasn't until the sunlight slowly moved away from her face that Li Yan carried him out of the house, and many people had already gathered in the courtyard, including Master.
Li Yuanwu saw Li Yan coming out of the house, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, turned around, and three people came out of the crowd, took his mother from Li Yan's hands, and put it on a cart prepared in advance.
Li Yan glanced at his mother again, his mother was lying there quietly, the smile on her face never disappeared, Li Yan's chest tightness that finally disappeared reappeared, and he couldn't control it, this chest tightness followed Li Yan for half a year.
Mother's funeral was the same as father's, it was quickly done with the help of everyone, and Li Yan was also taken to the mountain by Li Yuanwu, although Li Yan was not sad after going up the mountain, his mood was never very high.
Li Yuanwu didn't know what was going on, although Li Yan had been practicing for hundreds of years, after all, he was just a child, and he hadn't experienced many things in his life.
Li Yuanwu wanted to enlighten him but didn't know how to start, so he had to care about him better and let him know that in this world, in addition to his parents, there was also a master.
Under Li Yuanwu's care, Li Yan quickly returned to his previous appearance, he was still very cheerful, and he treated people the same as before, but Li Yuanwu knew in his heart that Li Yan still hadn't figured it out.
One day Li Yuanwu called him to the palace, and the two stayed in the palace all day, and after coming out, Li Yan still smiled when he met people, his smile was full of warmth, and anyone who saw it felt very comfortable.
No one knew what happened to Li Yan that day, not even Li Yi didn't say it, but once he said to Li Yi excitedly: "You are my best friend, Master is my dearest person, God has never treated me badly, I thought I lost a lot, and later I realized that I gained more." ”
After saying that, he hugged Li Yi, Li Yi didn't understand what was going on at all, but seeing Li Yan so happy, he was also happy in his heart, and since then, Li Yan has always been the way he is now, and he has never changed.
Kun quickly condensed the spiritual power, Li Yan and their attention were focused on Li Yuanwu, and they didn't see Kun's movements, with their current situation, it was useless to see it, they no longer had the ability to stop Kun.
The most important thing is that Kun has made up his mind to get rid of them, although Chang Ying and the four of them have set up a wanton formation, in Kun's eyes, this formation has no effect, Kun took a last look at them, and quickly rushed down.
Just when he was rushing down, Li Yi woke up, he missed everything during the time he was unconscious, he was lying on his back, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Kun rushing down at a very fast speed.
Li Yi didn't know what was happening, but he instinctively realized the danger, he wanted to get up to block, but found that his hands and feet didn't need a little force, to be precise, he couldn't feel the presence of his limbs closely.
Li Yi fainted after being hit by Kun, and because of the Qianyang Mirror, he was not injured, and the reason why he couldn't use his strength was because he had been asleep for a long time and his limbs had become numb.
The more Li Yi tried to exert himself, the more his hands and feet refused to obey the call, and he didn't have time to look at Li Yan and the others, but he saw that they seemed to be gathered together out of the corner of his eye, and he didn't notice Kun's attack at all.
Li Yi didn't know the reason for this, and subconsciously felt that they should be fine, and the reason why he didn't move was because he didn't notice Kun, so he instinctively shouted "Be careful!"
