Chapter 7 The Old Man's Words
. ...... Chamber......
On either side are two rows of tall shelves, some bottles and cans still vibrate from time to time, and the pale blue incense clouds are swirling, making this unusual room even more mysterious.
"Actually, I'm also very puzzled, why are you here?" the old man held a cup of tea in his hand, quietly took two sips and said slowly to Xiao Rin.
"What do you mean? Didn't I come with Grandpa Yi? Grandpa...... What's wrong with you?"
Without rebuttal, the old man came straight to her and took her pale and slender hands.
Combing the lines in Xiao Rin's palm, the old man's eyes flickered, and after a while, he spoke: "The lifeline you showed is not the original, the original should be this one, but it has faded away............ pointing to a line in Xiao Rin's hand that has gradually faded.
"Life is in chaos, the original fate line is not good, but it is calm. If there were no accidents, you would never encounter any mystery in your life, and you would have traveled along an ordinary route! However, it had recently deviated, and the original path was gone, and a looming, invisible line was followed............"
"That...... This one... Why?" shook his hand, Xiao Rin asked cautiously. Although she was extremely surprised in her heart, wasn't this the secret of her own rebirth???!
"I don't know, the sky is chaotic, and manpower is unknowable. Shaking his head, the old man sighed...... Heavenly machine, what is heavenly machine, since it is heavenly machine, how can it be cut off for no reason!?
・・・・・・・・
"That...... Is that why I got this disease?"
"No, you're not sick, and that's not why you're so. Shaking his head, the old man said in a low voice. "When you meet the people of the Yi family, you are blessed with good luck, and you are blessed by the blessings of the Yi family. And the reason for the weakness of the body...... You're not just bumping into ghosts, you're also encountering 'void'!"
"I know the hell, but it's ...... What is void?"
"'Void' is not an animal, not a plant, not a living thing, not a dead thing. It is a breath of heaven and earth. When you encounter wood, you will turn into a plant, when you meet people, and when you encounter fire, you will turn into a dragon............ But all parasites pass away and are drained of all their vitality...... This should be regarded as a natural phenomenon, and you should not blame it, nor should you blame yourself. ”
With the old man's words, the void in front of him showed a mysterious scene, first chaotic......... Time passes endlessly...... There is no beginning and no end...... A clear air wafted in the vicissitudes of life...... When all things are turned into all things...... The avenue is invisible, and that clear air shows that they are earthly, unrestrained, and free............
"This~~~~" The magic shown by the old man at this time made Xiao Rin stunned in surprise, and he unconsciously opened his small mouth wide, and his little face was full of disbelief!!!
"Don't worry about it, it's just a little trick of carving insects. Smiling, the old man waved his hand and removed the vision in front of him.
"'Virtual' is so, this is 'virtual'. Holding his chest, Xiao Rin said thoughtfully: "Grandpa, there is a plant-like thing on my chest, it grows in my body, it grows very fast, and now it is almost up to my neck!"
"The 'virtual' plant is called 'Ruixian' in the shape of a vine, and it is placed in the spiritual land, and after a hundred years, it absorbs enough spiritual power to grow a fruit, and people can live forever by eating it! But the parasitic human body or the body of the creature will be completely replaced after that, and it will no longer exist!"
Reaching out and slightly pulling away Xiao Rin's collar, revealing the wonderful plant that exuded intense vitality attached to her white skin, pinched it, and pulled down a turquoise leaf that looked like a maple leaf: "This plant has entered the growth stage, and the spiritual power needed every day will be more and more...... If you don't have enough spiritual power, it will take your vitality!"
"How...... How could this be, then wouldn't I die soon!" Xiao Rin was mentally prepared for the old man's magic, even if he touched the plant that only he could see, but could not touch, he was not too surprised.
But this sentence is denying his right to live!
"It's weird, it's weird...... It stands to reason that even if you are in the spiritual root, it is impossible for you to last long! The parasitic thing that is parasitic by 'Ruixian' should be exhausted in three days, withered in form, and vanished...... But you really exist?!" The old man pondered bitterly about the leaf that had been pulled off Xiao Rin into a small black box.
The old man looked straight at her, and an inexplicable brilliance bloomed in his eyes that made Xiao Rin have a strange feeling of being seen through his heart! After carefully observing Xiao Rin for a while, the old man's attention focused on her big eyes!
He suddenly realized: "Spiritual source, this is the 'source'. Your eyes are actually linked to the 'source'. The eye is the window to the soul and can project the essence of the soul. Your soul has become a spiritual source for no apparent reason...... It's a stroke of luck that even his life has changed!"
"That...... What is the spiritual source?" I didn't know what to say, Xiao Rin could only follow and ask.
"The spiritual source is a source of spiritual power, which is placed on heaven and earth and in heaven and earth. ”
"In that case, wouldn't it be able to provide aura for that 'Ruixian'............ Does it mean that I won't die and my health will be fine? Xiao Rin was originally sitting softly on the chair, but at this time she was pleasantly surprised and wanted to stand up, but she was immediately defeated by reality and sat down softly.
"No, the only node you are now connected to that 'source' is the eye that is known as the window of the soul! Although the eye is the window of the soul, after all, it is only a small stream, and the spiritual power flowing out is not enough to support the 'Ruixian' -- you will sleep for ten years and a hundred years...... Until 'Ruixian' matures and bears fruit. And then...... Wake up!" The old man's bland words unceremoniously shattered her delusions.
"Ten years, one hundred years...... I must have died a long time ago. How can I die, I don't want to die!!"
How can it, how can it be...... I still have my parents, and I still have a month waiting for me to go back, how can I die like this!!! Xiao Rin's tone, which had already calmed down, suddenly became urgent!
"No, you're not going to die...... It can be said that it is difficult for you to die even if you want to die now. The 'source' can only provide you with some spiritual power before you make good use of it, so that you can see what people can't see, and your eyes can see yin and yang......, but it's nothing!"
"And 'Ruixian' was supposed to put you to death, and then leave with all your life and spiritual power to find a new host. The old man gave her a pitying look. "But now, 'Ruixian' has the inexhaustible spiritual power provided by the spiritual source, and he will not leave. You must know that the 'source' is very rare, and I think even this 'Ruixian' is reluctant to give up--"
"In that case...... What will I do?" Xiao Rin felt that his little physical strength was quickly dissipating in the fierce ups and downs of his mood.
"'Ruixian' will even merge with you because of his strong needs, regardless of each other. ”
"Fusion~~~~~ although I don't want to, but in this case, I won't die no matter what, it won't threaten me!" Xiao Rin pondered for a while, although he was dissatisfied with his body to be with such a thing forever, he could survive anyway...... Parents and Yi Yue, don't want them to be sad because of their death!
"Of course it doesn't threaten you, because that's ............ you live with it"
The old man was sad, but at this time, he couldn't bear to let the delicate girl in front of him despair.
He sighed in his heart: "You will return to 'emptiness' and have the ability to 'emptiness'." Can you bear the sorrow of eternal life?"
================================================================================
"Do you want to see your parents again and serve them for the rest of their lives?"
The old man looked directly into Xiao Rin's eyes and asked seriously.
"Yes, of course I do! Is there any way to separate that 'Ruixian' from me, although I know it won't hurt me, but I always feel that it's not that my own things are disgusting in my body!!" Xiao Rin hates the kind of thing that grows on her body and uses herself as nourishment, if there is a way, she definitely doesn't want to keep it on her body.
"No...... However, you can live like a normal person without sleeping. The old man's originally serious face was full of a little temptation, as if he ............
"Worship my Maoshan Road and practice my "Shangqing Cave Xuanzhen Sutra". In this way, I can ask the elders of the sect to give you empowerment as the head of the Qing Dynasty, replenish the spiritual power of that 'Ruixian', raise it, and provide for you before you have the power to open up the spiritual source, so that it does not have to absorb your life power. ”
"Why...... Why, if you want to accept disciples, there are definitely countless people who kowtow their heads, why me?"
"There is no why, willing or unwilling? If you are willing, you can be born. If you don't want to...... For the sake of my old friend, I will send you out of the village and leave you to fend for yourself. ”
"Me, do you have a choice?"
From now on, you will be the eighteenth generation disciple of my Maoshan Mountain. Seeing that the girl agreed, the old man let out a long sigh. If she didn't agree, he really couldn't think of a way to deal with this child!
On the one hand, it is an old friend, and on the other hand, it is the future generations!
=================================================================================
"Old man, how long will that little guy take to get back. You can't let a little girl live in this kind of deep mountains and old forests for the rest of your life, right?" That night, two old people in the backyard drank each other under the moon.
The surroundings are very dark, with mottled shadows and wind-blown clouds......... The faint cold moon peeked out in the sky. Pour light into this secluded courtyard.
"It won't take long, five or six years at the longest, three or four years at the shortest, I can't say ......."
"It's this set again, I really can't stand you. ”
"Do a line like a line, otherwise, won't my job be smashed by myself?"
"Who dares to smash your job, my old fellow will definitely avenge you...... I'm going to snatch his job for you!"
"Hahahaha............ You're still the same, you're still the same!"
The two old men clasped one hand tightly together, and patted each other's backs with the other.
They laughed heartily, let go of all their worries, and just enjoyed the moment to the fullest.
・・・・・・
"Old fellow, there is something I must say beforehand. The old man surnamed Lin had a straight face and said: "The fate of this girl in the future is no longer under the control of you and me, if you and I die, if she falls into the magic barrier - who can cure her, her future is terrifying...... It's terrifying!"
His eyes suddenly widened, and Old Man Yi said magnificently: "Don't worry, there will be my son after I die, and his martial arts are comparable to the ancient god of war." After my son's death, there will be my grandson, and my granddaughter's talent inheritance is about to begin, and even my son may not be her opponent in the future...... As long as I keep changing families, this guarantee will always be valid!"
"Alas~~~~ Besides, even if Xiao Yatou is the enemy of the whole world, she will not make a move on her. At the end of the words, Old Man Yi was very embarrassed - at this age, he could see everything very thoroughly, and his martial arts cultivation had reached the point of seeing gods.
Xiao Rin, this kid, has probably fallen into a taboo.
What about Xiao Yue'er~~~~
Alas...... It seems that at some point in the future, the Yi family is going to be troubled again!
・・・・
Another day and night
Old Man Yi had already left, and before leaving, he stuffed a thick manuscript book wrapped in a roll of yellow paper under the pillow of the girl who was sleeping with her eyes closed.
"I also admit that you are a disciple of my Yi family...... Don't leave the national art behind when you're well, remember!"
The fog was filled, and in that heavy fog, Xiao Rin's grandfather left, and he didn't look back!
After the old man left, Xiao Rin opened his eyes.
She didn't want to watch the only person she knew leave, which would make her already kicking heart even more uneasy, so she ...... She chose to close her eyes, and the old man respected her choice.
Holding the thick manuscript, the handwriting was still brand new...... It was the grandfather who rushed out overnight, and recorded the Yi family's various cultivation secrets -- the book was very light, but Xiao Rin felt that it was extremely heavy!
Xiao Rin, you have to work hard!
For the sake of parents, for the sake of the ...... And for all those who care about you!
Be sure to get back to them as quickly as possible!
Clenched his fist, Xiao Rin's expression was firm.
