The night before leaving, Townsend and Qi Churong didn't sleep, and sat at the stone table in their small courtyard all night.

Qi Churong, who was pregnant, knew that she couldn't keep him, so she didn't say anything more to keep him.

"I've been married to you for so many years...... I can understand that you've been out fighting all these years and don't have time to stay with me and leave me alone, but now that you're leaving, I want to ask you one last question. Qi Churong stared at the ever-bright lamp on the table with dull eyes, her eyes had already been occupied by tears, and in the blink of an eye, tears squeezed out of her eyes and couldn't stop flowing.

"Ask!" Townsend looked at his wife in front of him and didn't know what to say, he also wanted to stay with his wife, but the military spirit was stirring in the depths of his heart, and the man was bloody, how could he let go of the life and death feud of his comrades, and steal peace.

"You...... Do you still love me?" Qi Churong turned her gaze to Townsend with tears in her eyes, her eyes containing exhaustion, expectation, and hatred, and hatred.

Townsend replied excitedly: "~ Love, always loved, it has not changed since the beginning." It's just~"

"No need to explain, I understand, as long as you have the final answer, that's enough!" Qi Churong interrupted him, was silent for a while, and said: "Life is accompanied, but sometimes, sending you a thousand miles~ must be goodbye in the end." I won't keep you anymore, and I don't want to see you again, so let's go!"

After speaking, Qi Churong stood up, walked into the door and closed the door with a "bang", and sat on the ground with her back against the door, tears could no longer stop flowing.

The sound of crying in the room reached Townsend's ears, and his heart ached like a knife, and if he stayed any longer, he might be left with a soft heart. He untied a bone dagger for self-defense, this dagger was picked up by him on the periphery of the Forest of Beasts, it was extremely sharp, tough and difficult to break, and since he got it, he carefully collected it, and only himself and Qi Churong knew about its existence.

Putting down the dagger, he turned his head away, and Townsend did not dare to look back even a single time, he was afraid that he would be reluctant to give up his wife and the child who was still in his womb.

Striding with their heads held high, with the firm steps of a soldier and a firm gaze, it is not that the soldiers are ruthless, but that they have to let go of their emotions.

After Xiaoxiang's father Townsend left, her mother's relatives Chu Rong's only sustenance was her, and Townsend left less than a month after she was conceived, and the dead soldiers on the battlefield used flesh and blood to bear damage to buy enough time for the army, and set up a formation to resist the enemy, almost ten dead, and could not survive at all.

So after Townsend rushed to the battlefield, Qi Churong left Shicheng with her pregnancy, traveled all the way to the west, and came to Yujia Town, which was far away from the battlefield, where she gave birth to Xiaoxiang and named Tang Xiangxue.

After a long journey, she cultivated to the bottom, and it can be said that she endured hardships, washing her face with tears in front of Townsend's portrait all day long, until she was blind from crying, and for more than ten years, the mother and daughter relied on their previous savings and the pension that Townsend received when he went to the battlefield to make ends meet.

Xiaoxiang has been sensible since she was a child, her mother can't see it, she can't make money to support her family, she went to the town very early to find a job, as long as she can make money, she is not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and suffers a lot, although the people in the town didn't bully her much, but how many times she looked down on her, she suffered a lot of white eyes.

Originally, Xiaoxiang's foundation was very good, and she could grow into a beautiful woman like a flower, but because of hard work, her body was thin and her skin looked a little dark, and she even had calluses on her hands, but she could still be seen from between her eyebrows that she was a beautiful embryo.

When she was about fifteen years old, Yin Feng's family arrived, so she entered Yin's mansion as a maid, and Yin Feng had personal experience of everything that followed.

Listening to Xiaoxiang's story, Yin Feng gradually forgot about his sadness, but interjected from time to time: "Tang Xiangxue~ Wow, Sister Xiaoxiang, you have such a nice name!"

"Sister Xiaoxiang's father turned out to be a soldier!"

But as Xiao Xiang told a little bit, he became more and more silent, it turned out that Sister Xiao Xiang had suffered so much.

Put down the dishes and chopsticks and sit on the chair silently and listen to Xiao Xiang tell, he can understand the changes in Xiao Xiang's emotions, from the tone and demeanor, but Xiao Xiang did not leave a tear in his eyes, his eyes were a little dull and numb, with a little hatred and expectation.

Finally finished speaking, the food on the table was already cold, Yin Feng listened blankly, until he finished speaking, his eyes were red, and he was very sympathetic to Xiaoxiang's past.

"Okay, the story is over, you know the rest of it. Xiao Xiang took a deep breath of relief and exhaled.

"Sister Xiaoxiang~ I didn't expect you to live so hard. Yin Feng said with red eyes.

Xiao Xiang put on a reluctant smile and said, "Then did you see Sister Xiao Xiang crying?"

"No, Sister Xiaoxiang is so strong. ”

"Then you have to be strong~ Don't lose to Sister Xiaoxiang as a girl. Tang Xiangxue squatted down and wiped the tears from the corners of Yin Feng's eyes with her thumb.

"Okay, I don't cry. Yin Feng shouted.

"Well, let's go up and rest when you're full, my mother and I live in the first room on the left, and the other rooms are all cleaned up. Tang Xiangxue patted Yin Feng on the shoulder and asked him to go upstairs to rest, while she cleaned up the dishes on the table, Yin Feng offered to help her but she refused.

Yin Feng walked up the stairs to the third floor alone, it was late at night, and the lights outside the window were largely extinguished, leaving only a faint light, like fireflies in the forest.

The moonlight is like water, the sound of the night crow crying in the forest reaches the town, the occasional bird soars with wings, the eagle strikes the sky, stretches its feathers and runs to the moon, facing the moonlight, waving its wings.

Yin Feng stepped up to the third floor, walked to the room, and when he passed by the first room on the left, he looked inside, and saw that Sister Xiaoxiang's mother Qi Churong had not yet fallen asleep, sitting on the edge of the bed and stretching out a somewhat old wrinkled hand to caress a kind of portrait, even though the portrait has been blurred after many years, she did say something to the portrait affectionately, and her voice was very soft, as if she was talking to her lover.

"What a woman who has always been in love!" Yun Array's voice appeared beside Yin Feng.

"Old man?"

"Hmm!"

"Why do you say that there are so many bad things in this world, which make people sad and sad. Yin Feng asked.

"Sadness is emotion, with feelings is considered perfect, the way of cultivation is to cut off seven emotions and six desires, but it is difficult to climb to the sky like ants. Yun Array's explanation was a bit unanswered, but it once again caused Yin Feng to think.

"Is cultivation going to cut off the seven emotions, six desires and all emotions?" Yin Feng was puzzled.

"No, I don't think you want to cut off the seven emotions and six desires, right? After all, cultivation lies in the heart, how can people be willing to cut off if they have emotions, if they are cut off, then what is the point of practicing to become immortals. I hope that in the future, when you are faced with that choice, you will be able to cut off the root of the bad and not destroy your heart. The cloud array pointed.

"Can the old man understand me? I don't quite understand. ”

"When you get to that point, you'll naturally understand that it's not good for you to understand too early. "Cloud Array Dao.

"Okay!" Yin Feng replied unwillingly, he silently remembered this passage of Yun Array in his heart, he believed that the old man said this for his good.
