Chapter 194: Qiao Maogong's Tears
ChineseHearing Feng Yichen say that there was a way for Qiao Maogong to practice Xuangong, Huo Ningsong and Jin Haitian were even more excited than Qiao Maogong.
But in recent years, Qiao Maogong's body has deteriorated, although he looks quite healthy, but he has understood in his heart over the years that Qiao Maogong has not had many children, and as a mortal, Qiao Maogong is already the highest in life. Without the protection of cultivation, Qiao Maogong would survive for another three or five years at most, and at that time, he would be separated from his brothers forever, and there would be no possibility of seeing each other again.
Right now, whether it is Qiaojiazhen, the Fire Clan, or the Jin Clan, they all have the determination to develop. But compared to these, if Qiao Maogong can practice Xuangong, then for everyone, this is the best news.
But now that I heard Qiao Maogong's meaning, he was not ready to practice Xuangong, and now Huo Ningsong and Jin Haitian were anxious, and the puzzled expressions on their faces were no less than Feng Yichen.
"Big brother, why is this? If you can cultivate, after the longevity increases, we can live together for more than ten or twenty years, if we cultivate quickly, maybe we can have a hundred years of friendship, but why don't you cultivate? What a great opportunity!"
Qiao Maogong looked at Huo Ningsong, who was speaking, then at Jin Haitian, and finally set his eyes on Feng Yichen: "The old man knows that the young master is for my good, but I am already old, and I have never thought about cultivation, so I really don't dare to think about cultivation, and I don't want to think about it, as for cultivation, as for cultivation, ......"
Qiao Maogong shook his head, his eyes moved from the room, and he looked at the blue sky at the door: "As for the matter of cultivation." We, Qiaojia Town, after the last cultivator died. The ancestor gave the order. No one in the future is allowed to practice Xuangong. Although I can abolish this rule, I really don't want to practice Xuangong, even if I have to die tomorrow, I won't choose this path. ”
"Old Qiao, why the hell?" Feng Yichen didn't understand, he knew that what Qiao Maogong said was just an excuse. As a generation of patriarchs, even the decree of the ancestor can be abolished, but he doesn't want to cultivate Xuangong. It's a little hard to believe your ears when you say something like this. In the dark, Feng Yichen felt that there must be something hidden behind this Qiao Maogong.
Huo Ningsong and Jin Haitian also felt that something was wrong, Qiao Maogong's mentality made them unable to grasp it, and now when they heard Feng Yichen asking, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Qiao Maogong together.
Sure enough, after Feng Yichen finished asking, Qiao Maogong spoke. Although his expression was a little gloomy and hesitant, he did not hide it again. He looked at Huo Ningsong and Jin Haitian. There was a trace of regret in his eyes.
It turned out that Qiao Maogong often drank and chatted with Huo Ningsong after getting acquainted with Huo Ningsong. Qiao Maogong is mortal. In addition to all kinds of land, the rest is to deal with some internal family affairs. But Huo Ningsong is different, although Huo Ningsong usually farms and also deals with family affairs, but nearly half of the time is spent practicing Xuangong every year, and there are many times when Qiao Maogong went to look for Huo Ningsong, and was told that Huo Ningsong was practicing Xuangong in retreat, and the time to leave the customs was far away.
It was precisely because of Huo Ningsong's busyness that Qiao Maogong met Shui Wanshanmu Asphalt and Jin Haitian, who were also practicing Xuangong, on the way back and forth. thought that he would not have anything to do with them, but the creation made people, one was not careful, Qiao Maogong stepped into the air, and when he was about to fall off the cliff, the three of them rescued him.
Qiao Maogong invited the three of them to Qiaojia Town as guests to show their gratitude, and the more the four of them chatted, the more speculative they became, Qiao Maogong gradually forgot about Huo Ningsong's frequent retreat, and at the suggestion of Shui Wanshan, the four of them bowed to the handle, and by the way, Huo Ningsong, who was still in retreat, was brought in.
Knowing that the three of them lived in Beiyuan City, Qiao Maogong also walked back and forth with them from time to time, and Shui Wanshan and the others would also come to Qiaojia Town or simply invite Qiao Maogong to them to gather together in their spare time, but the good times did not last long, and the cultivators needed to retreat after all, and there was no time for this retreat.
But fortunately, they are not in retreat together, there is always a front and a back, so that Qiao Maogong will not be in the air every time, but even so, Qiao Maogong is still uncomfortable in his heart. Since the five of them got married, they could only eat together once every few years when everyone was not in retreat, usually either Huo Ningsong was not available, or Shui Wanshan retreated, and in the past few decades, the five brothers have not been able to sit together for much time.
In normal days, Qiao Maogong came to each house in his spare time, and he had a good relationship with several people, but others were different, some years could only see each other almost once a year, and the relationship between brothers was inevitably a little estranged. This is also the reason why the relationship between Huo Ningsong and Shui Wanshan has not been very good. In addition to the fact that the Fire Clan and the Water Clan themselves have some offenses, this is the biggest reason.
"I've lived eighty-three years, and I've seen enough. You are busy cultivating, and you don't see much about the world's human affairs, but I have seen too much!" Qiao Maogong couldn't help but shake his head: "Dead people seem to you to be the most normal, but what is behind the dead people, have you ever paid attention to them?"
"Every time I go to see you, you are in retreat, you don't know how low I felt at that time......" When Qiao Maogong spoke, someone outside came to report, saying that Shui Wanshan and Mu Asphalt had arrived together. Qiao Maogong didn't seem to hear it, and said to himself.
Seeing this, Jin Haitian wanted to remind Qiao Maogong, but was stopped by Feng Yichen, signaling that he only needed to invite Shui Wanshan and Mu Asphalt in, and there was no need to interrupt Qiao Maogong. Feng Yichen knew that Qiao Maogong's words that had been accumulated in his heart for many years at the moment could finally be poured out, at this time, it was better not to interrupt, maybe in this life, Qiao Maogong only had this one chance.
"I have seen the birth of a child, and when I saw the excited application of my relatives when the child was born, I knew that a hope was ignited in their hearts. A new life is so simple that it can bring happiness to people. At that time, all adults were like children, and their happiness was actually very simple. But what about you?"
Qiao Maogong said this, Shui Wanshan and Mu Asphalt had already come in, seeing Qiao Maogong's expression was wrong, the perennial feelings told them that Qiao Maogong was talking about some important things at the moment, so he didn't bother him. Seeing Feng Yichen sitting in the middle of the Jin Clan's main hall, Shui Wanshan was not too surprised, whether the Jin Clan joined the Proud World Heavenly Palace, it was all the Jin Clan's own business, and he could only give a little advice at most.
Feng Yichen and Shui Wanshan nodded and said hello. Then Shui Wanshan and Mu Asphalt sat down next to Jin Haitian and whispered something to Mu Asphalt, probably introducing Feng Yichen.
And Qiao Maogong didn't seem to see the water and mountains and wood asphalt, still looking at the sky outside the door, that touch of blue, extremely clear, but still clear with a hint of melancholy.
"I have seen a child grow up with his babbling and growing up, from his faltering walk to his thriving growth, to his starting a family, marrying a wife and having children, and finally watching his child be born, watching his child walk the path he has walked again, until he dies with a smile on his face......"
Qiao Maogong's mood was very complicated, and there was a trace of emptiness in his eyes: "A person's life is a process of looking for death. But in this search for death, there are countless surprises and surprises. But no matter what it is, for mortals, after all, it is just something that life does not bring and death does not take away. No matter what your identity is during your lifetime, what status you reach, after death, you will be at most seven feet of fertile sleep, what else can you have?"
"I've gotten used to these things every time I've been facing them. But, do you know?" Qiao Maogong sighed: "We have been chasing things all our lives, and in the end there is nothing left, sad!"
Qiao Maogong said, suddenly turned his head sideways and glanced at the four brothers sitting behind him, the arrival of Shu Wanshan and Mu Asphalt Qiao Maogong naturally saw it, and seeing that they were all here, Qiao Maogong suddenly left tears! Cat flutter Chinese
