Chapter 18: Yan Chixia's Relics (First Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
More than forty years, more than forty years apart. Since I traveled back then, so much has happened in the middle. But today, the family of three is finally reunited.
More than forty years later, the beggar has not changed at all, his whole body is dirty, tattered, grinning, and still has a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Son, daughter-in-law, it's been more than forty years, and I've finally seen you."
"Dad, where have you been?" Zuo Xiaoyou and Zhizi hurriedly walked over: "You said that you would come back in ten years at most, we waited for fourteen years and didn't see you come back, this time I went out to find you for more than ten years and there was no news, fortunately you finally came back." ”
After listening to Zuo Xiaoyou's narration, the beggar smiled, and his eyes showed a trace of kindness: "The world is too chaotic, I went to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but I didn't expect to meet a powerful monster, and I fought with it for thirty years to kill it." It's late to come back, and I'm worried about you. ”
"It's good to be back." Zuo Xiaoyou didn't ask him what monsters he encountered? Peace is more important than anything else.
……
It was only a few months since the beggar returned home, and the letters left by Zuo Xiaoyou were yellowed, and the letters learned that Zuo Xiaoyou and Zhizi went out to find him, and they would definitely come back after three or five years or twenty years. The beggar thought that this letter had been there for seventeen years, and that even if he waited at home for three years, he put away his thoughts and waited at home with peace of mind. Unexpectedly, after only a few months, Zuo Xiaoyou and Zhizi came back, which made him worry a lot.
Zuo Xiaoyou and Tomoko also told about what they had encountered in the past ten years.
"You actually went to the demon world?" The beggar was taken aback: "You are too bold! ”
Zuo Xiaoyou smiled bitterly: "We didn't expect the demon world to be so dangerous, but fortunately, we found that the situation was wrong as soon as we arrived at the periphery, so we quickly ran back, otherwise we would really be eaten by those monsters." ”
"You're lucky." The beggar wiped the cold sweat from his head and said, "Don't be reckless in the future, I don't even want to go to that place." You young people just don't know how thick the sky is. ”
Don't 'want' to go? Zuo Xiaoyou heard a hint of something unusual.
"Tell me more!" Zhizi pouted: "If it weren't for Dad running around, Big Brother Zuo and I wouldn't have run to such a dangerous place." In the end, it's still Daddy's wrong. ”
The beggar couldn't cry or laugh: "Okay, it's me who is wrong, okay!" You girl, you're still so stingy. ”
"Hee-hee, I'm Big Brother Zuo's wife. Of course, I have to help Brother Zuo speak. Tomoko was proud.
"You little two!" The beggar's face was full of envy: "Alas! I am relieved to see that you are still so loving after so many years. ”
Zuo Xiaoyou held Zhizi's hand and showed a gentle and warm smile: "Zhizi is my most important person, and I am very glad to have her by my side." ”
Tomoko's heart melted instantly, and his eyes were so soft that he could get tired of death.
The beggar shook his head and sighed, "Sooner or later, I will be numbed to death by your little two." ”
"Dad, you're here again." Zuo Xiaoyou was helpless: "If you are envious, go find a companion, secular women are not worthy of you, it's good to find a fellow person." ”
The beggar shook his head: "Don't talk about that." Tomoko. Go make me some sushi. I think it's been more than 40 years. ”
"Okay." Zhizi stood up: "I'll go out to buy vegetables, and Dad and Big Brother Zuo will have a good chat." ”
"Haha, what do two big men have to talk about. We'll talk when you get back. The beggar laughed.
Zuo Xiaoyou took out the last altar of daughter red from the watch space, and said, "Dad, we don't talk, how about drinking?" ”
"This is not ......" Seeing the familiar wine jar, the beggar's eyes were full of nostalgia.
Zuo Xiaoyou smiled slightly: "My father's daughter Hong, who was buried under the tree, was dug up by me after 20 years of burial." But only this one is left. ”
"I didn't think I could drink it." The beggar was full of emotion: "Before I know it, it's been more than 40 years." ”
"It's a pity that Big Brother Huli and Yan Chixia are not there. Otherwise, it will be more lively. Zuo Xiaoright's eyes were a little gloomy.
Big brother, Yan Chixia, are you still alive?
"Don't say such unpleasant things." The beggar patted open the mud seal and said, "Today, you and my father and son are reunited, and we are only allowed to say happy things, and those who are not happy are not allowed to say anything today." ”
Left and right came back to their senses. Feeling the beggar's concern for him, his heart warmed, and he smiled: "Okay, I'll have a drink with my father today." ”
"Of course! Hahaha......"
After more than forty years of reunion, Zuo Xiaoyou and the beggar have said a lot. Later, Tomoko brought a sufficient amount of sushi, and the three of them ate sushi, drank their daughter red, and talked about what they had experienced for more than 40 years, although there were only three people, the atmosphere was extraordinarily warm.
In the end, the ten catties of daughter Hong were all drunk, and the sushi was also eaten. The beggar wiped his mouth, patted his belly, and laughed: "Okay, good!" This is the day that Lao Tzu wants, to hell with those days before! ”
"Dad likes it, we will live like this every day in the future." Zuo Xiaoyou said.
"Haha, it's good to pass once in a while, it's boring to do this every day." The beggar stood up and moved his body, took out a diamond-shaped, fist-sized purple gem from the cloth bag around his waist, and threw it over: "Son, for you." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou caught the gem and asked, "What is this?" ”
"Purple calcium carbide." The beggar said, "I found it when I killed that demon, Lei Xiu's priceless treasure." ”
"Priceless?" Left and right were stunned.
"Hmm." The beggar said: "The purple electric stone can automatically absorb the power of thunder and lightning between heaven and earth, this purple electric stone can store at least 100,000 heavenly thunders, and in the future, when you cultivate, just suck the heavenly thunder out of the purple electric stone, and you don't have to run to be struck by lightning by yourself." When your mana runs out, you can replenish your mana at any time. Isn't it priceless, you say? ”
"Yes! Yes, definitely! Zuo Xiaoyou turned over and stroked this piece of purple calcium carbide, and was pleasantly surprised.
His cultivation is skyrocketing now, and he can absorb more than 100 heavenly thunders at a time, if he doesn't use it to cast spells, more than 100 heavenly thunders can allow his body to absorb and strengthen for a whole year, and this purple calcium stone can store 100,000 heavenly thunders, and the most rebellious is that it can automatically absorb the power of thunder and lightning, so doesn't it mean that the purple electric stone can be full of energy at any time, and he also has inexhaustible mana?
"Dad, the demon you killed must be the demon leader!" Zuo Xiaoyou tried to absorb the power of a heavenly thunder, and a large amount of mana was instantly replenished in his body, and there was no pain of being struck by lightning.
All right! This purple calcium carbide is really good! Sure enough, it is worthy of Lei Xiu's priceless treasure.
"It's a 10,000-year-old demon." The beggar smiled: "Although my cultivation is very high, I still beat him to death with a stick." Son. You remember! If you want to get rich, the best way is to rob those big demons with high cultivation, and those who can mix into the realm of big demons have good things in their hands. ”
Zuo Xiaoyou Khan: "Dad, others teach their children to be hardworking and kind, you are good." Teach me to rob. ”
"Lao Tzu is asking you to rob monsters, not letting you rob good people." The beggar laughed and scolded, and said: "This purple calcium carbide is left alone, it can absorb the power of a heavenly thunder every day, if it catches up with the thunder and rainy day, put it on the roof, and the thunder will split it by itself that day until the heavenly thunder store is full." ”
Zuo Xiaoyou is even happier, with this thing. He even had the confidence to fight those monsters who had cultivated for 5,000 years.
100,000 days of thunder, can't be killed.
Zuo Xiaoyou feels that his life is finally going to change from cups to washers.
……
The return of the beggar allowed Zuo Xiaoyou and Zhizi to live a stable life again, and the family of three was happy, harmonious and beautiful, and lived a very comfortable life.
But as time went by, Zuo Xiaoyou's worries about Huli Daxian and Yan Chixia became more and more superficial.
After so many years, there is still no news from Huli Daxian and Yan Chixia. Although he has some speculations, he is the so-called life to meet people. Death is to see the corpse. He couldn't find their bodies, and he wouldn't be willing to do it anyway.
Zhizi understood Zuo Xiaoyou's feelings, but there was nothing she could do but pray in her heart that Huli Daxian and Yan Chixia would be fine, and hoped that there would be a goodbye day in the future.
But the good expectations in my heart came with Yan Chixia's sword box containing the divine sword in the hands of a young man in Guobei County three years later, and after he asked about the origin of the sword box. Both Zuo Xiaoyou and Tomoko are desperate.
"I took it from an old farmer in the Western Regions. He said that a demon came out to eat people at night a few decades ago, and that night the two human monks were killed and eaten by the demons, leaving only this sword box that has been kept by him. I thought this sword box was quaint, so I spent ten taels of silver to buy it for a collection. But for some reason, I couldn't open the sword box even by all means. You can only carry it on your back and pretend to be. ”
This news destroyed the last trace of luck in Zuo Xiaoyou's heart. In the end, he bought the sword box from the young man for a hundred taels of silver.
In the house.
"Prajnaparami." A yellow paper talisman was pasted on the sword box, and the sword was unsheathed and fell into the left and right hand.
Seeing this familiar golden sword, two lines of tears fell from Zuo Xiaoyou: "Big brother, Yan Chixia, I didn't expect you to leave like this." Don't worry, I will avenge you! ”
The young man didn't know what the monster looked like, but he told him the old farmer's address.
After Zuo Xiaoyou told the beggar about this, he put forward the idea of avenging Huli Daxian and Yan Chixia.
The beggar pondered for a moment and nodded, "It's okay." Although I don't know your sworn brother named Huli, Yan Chixia and I were familiar with it back then. Let's go! I'm here to help. ”
"Thank you, Dad." With the help of beggars, the left and right are more certain.
……
Ten days later, Zuo Xiaoyou and his party arrived in the Western Regions, and according to what the young man said, they quickly found the old peasant.
The old farmer was in his sixties, with dark skin, gray hair and beard, and was a very ordinary farmer in the local area. Knowing Zuo Xiaoyou's intentions, the old farmer recalled: "Back then, the monster was a centipede spirit, huge in size, more than ten meters long. After a pause: "But that centipede spirit hasn't run out to harm people for twenty years, and I don't know where it went." ”
"Centipede spirit?" Zuo Xiaoyou's expression was a little strange: "Is the centipede essence all fiery red?" Can you breathe poisonous fire in your mouth? ”
"Exactly." The old farmer nodded again and again: "How does the hero know?" ”
"......" left and right smiled bitterly. (To be continued.) )
