Chapter 45: Through the Mirror (1)
At night, the spirit boat rushed back to the sect, and after Chu Muxi bathed, he sat alone by the window of his room, watching the sea of clouds outside the boat.
"Little Miss, are you unhappy because of Sect Master Mu's affairs?"
Qingyu recovered after her spiritual power was full, and at this moment she saw Chu Muxi's unhappy inquiry.
"He's not qualified to upset me yet."
A shallow smile appeared at the corner of Chu Muxi's mouth, his fingertips gently flicked the luminous cup under his hand, lazily took out a pot of wine from the storage space, and poured himself a glass. Then he drank it, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"I'm just thinking, what face does Mu Tingyun think she has in front of me? Is it possible to forget everything he did to Mu Xi back then? ”
If spending a hundred years in Penglai is a dream of Chu Muxi, then a hundred years in Yunshui Mirror is just a passing cloud. In Chu Muxi's eyes, it couldn't even compare to the blood-colored Buddha statue in her memory that she couldn't forget.
So Chu Muxi couldn't understand, what did Mu Tingyun do when she came to find herself? And why is it necessary?
"How can you get back the affection you missed?"
………………
……
It was an ordinary village in a remote mountain forest in Daliang, and in the courtyard of a small farmhouse, a woman with bright eyebrows was wearing a very simple jinghai cloth coat and was feeding the chickens and ducks in the yard.
The young man passing by the door greeted the beautiful woman in a friendly manner and asked, "Xi Niang, your grandfather went to the mountains to hunt again?"
The woman called Xi Niang raised her head, nodded at the other party and replied, "Well, Grandpa is not here, Grandma is here, is there something?"
The young man hurriedly shook his head, saying that it was okay and ran away.
Xi Niang is the girl who was picked up when this Dua Gong went hunting in the mountains, and in order to repay the two old people for saving their lives, she became the godgranddaughter of this family to provide for the two old people.
Xi Niang is very beautiful, not beautiful raised in a small mountain village like them, but more like a fairy in the sky who strayed into the mortal world. It's just a pity that this fairy doesn't have a very good temper. Before, a few ruffians in the village took a fancy to Xi Niang's beautiful skin and went to tease, but they were directly broken by Xi Niang's hands and feet. Since then, no one has dared to provoke this beautiful lady again.
Xi Niang or Chu Muxi watched each other leave indifferently, and then returned to the room with the dustpan for feeding.
It all started back a month ago.
A month ago, in order to leave Penglai and make that person believe that he really died for him and solve the volcano in Penglai, Chu Muxi exhausted his spiritual power and launched a powerful teleportation array, allowing him to leave at the moment of death. And Qingyu fell into a deep sleep after her spiritual power was exhausted, and she didn't know where she was teleported to, and fell into a coma.
If it weren't for the rescue of this old couple, it is estimated that they would really die outside. After all, without spiritual power, she is actually not much stronger than ordinary people.
So she owed the old couple a favor, and this was the cause and effect. Coincidentally, the old couple had no children and no daughters, and then she took the initiative to stay and send them to the end of their lives.
This is why there is today's beautiful village girl Xi Niang.
"Xi Niang, Xi Niang!" The voice of an old man came from the room.
Chu Muxi walked over with the voice, and looked at the old woman sitting on the kang who was fiddling with something, that is, Grandma Du in Chu Muxi's mouth.
Grandma Du is now in her sixties, her face is full of wrinkles, and her hair is gray, but she can vaguely see the beauty of her youth. When Du Apo was young, she was a famous beauty in the township, but her life was not good. The first husband was a childhood sweetheart, but soon after they got married, they drowned in the river because of drinking and walking at night. The second husband is Du Ah Gong, who is now nearly ten years younger than her, and the two even have a daughter, but unfortunately the little girl was naughty at the age of four and fell into the pool and drowned. The old couple then depended on each other and had no more children.
Therefore, for Chu Muxi, who appeared unexpectedly, the old man really gave birth to a love for his son, and treated this well-behaved and gentle girl as a daughter.
