Chapter 208: Favor
Of course, Li Xiuping would not know that his small act of kindness had completely changed the fate of several generations of a family, let alone that this family would be grateful to him for generations.
The only thing that Li Xiuping cared about at this moment was the previous cooperation between the two women, and their handling of the water monster.
Then Li Xiuping came to a conclusion that it is easy for a powerful person to do anything else besides fighting.
Such a behemoth, even if hundreds of people are allowed to do it together, it will take at least a day to make it to this level, but these two women just moved their hands, and in an instant, they turned the water monster that had been huge into food that could be eaten directly, so that anyone could be stunned when they saw it.
The old man who drove the boat seemed to think that it was normal, because in his eyes, these people were real immortals, and what could the immortals not do?
After the little red girl had almost eaten, she returned the copper bowl to Li Xiuping, and she also burped, so she looked a little embarrassed.
They had eaten so much, but the copper bowl was still full, as if no matter how much they ate, it was impossible to finish the meat in this bowl.
Li Xiuping took out a piece and gave it to the pitch-black dragon, and then directly put away the copper bowl.
Because it was getting late, the old man who drove the boat should have eaten a piece of Li Xiuping's meat, so he invited the three of them to stay at his house for one night and set off early tomorrow morning.
This time, the woman in Tsing Yi handed over the decision to Li Xiuping.
It was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, and Li Xiuping could only agree in the end.
The old man's home is not far from the river bank, it is a small courtyard that is quite good, there is a big persimmon tree planted in the yard, countless logs stand on the ground, and then a beam is made on it, and the beam is covered with wooden planks, and the house is built on the wooden plank, which is very suitable for living.
The old man's family has a daughter, and a son-in-law dressed as a scholar, and the couple has a pair of children, an older sister and a younger brother.
At this moment, the two children were sitting on the wooden board and playing, and after seeing someone enter the yard, the little girl frowned slightly, but the little boy was full of smiles and shouted loudly: "Grandpa, you are back, did you bring me something to eat?" ”
The old man put down what he was holding, his face wrinkled with a smile, and walked up briskly to pick up the little boy.
The little boy shouted into the room, "Daddy, mother, grandpa has brought guests." ”
Li Xiuping looked at the little boy who was being held by the old man, and felt very fond, but when he looked at the little girl, he didn't have any extra emotions.
After a while, the husband and wife came out of the house, and the woman smiled and looked a little reserved, while the man bowed to the people with his fists folded, invited them into the house, and told the woman to cook.
The old man put the little boy down at this time, and said with a smile: "The humble house is shabby, how many ...... are there Don't be disgusted. ”
After all, the word "immortal" did not come out, obviously because he was worried that a few immortals would mind.
Li Xiuping stood on the wooden plank and looked forward, just in time to see the river.
The river is rolling, the sunset is warm, it is very pleasant, and the mood can't help but feel a lot better.
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "It's good, if I have time in the future, I will also find such a place, build such a room, and then ......."
He didn't go on, because he didn't know what he should do next, this idea was just born suddenly at this moment, and he never had any imagination about his future, all the way, he was thinking about cultivation, or sword casting, and more often, thinking about how he could live and live longer.
The little boy ran over at this time and asked his grandfather for a gift, and then the old man carefully took out two things from his arms, what were they and what they did, Li Xiuping didn't know, because in his childhood, there had never been such a thing, in his memory, there were only swords, all kinds of swords, at most, when he entered the city, he could see that those children who were similar to him would hold a rattle in their hands, shaking from side to side, and the two small drumsticks would hit the drum surface, making a "dong dong" sound.
Li Xiuping thought it was funny, but he didn't envy it, because he felt that if he could hold a sword, he would definitely be more majestic than them.
From that time on, he felt that his master was the most powerful, and what his master gave him was also the best.
"This one is yours, this one is for my sister." The old man commanded with a smile on his face.
The little boy took his things and ran to find his sister.
Li Xiuping still looked into the distance, feeling a little trance.
The woman in Tsing Yi said at this time: "The past is over, and thinking too much is not good for cultivation. ”
Li Xiuping came back to his senses and nodded slightly.
The woman in Tsing Yi looked at the two children in the distance, you can also give them some meat, two points for one piece of meat, almost, as for the other two, one piece for each person, just right.
Li Xiuping was a little strange, and didn't understand why this woman would mention such a trivial matter.
Of course Li Xiuping didn't know, he missed his master, and the woman in Tsing Yi also missed his master, and when he saw the man dressed as a scholar, he remembered his own gentleman, the scholar who used his life to save a demon clan.
Li Xiuping didn't ask too much, took out a piece of meat from the copper bowl, broke it in half, and walked towards the two children.
Looking at the two pieces of meat handed over by Li Xiuping, the two children's eyes widened, although they wanted to eat it very much, the little boy even drooled, but the two children did not reach out to take it, but looked at their grandfather.
The old man smiled and nodded, and then the two children took the meat and ate it.
After eating, the little boy was obviously a little unsatisfied, staring at Li Xiuping with a pair of big eyes, and said, "Big brother, is there anything else?" ”
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "You are still too young, it is enough to eat so much, and if you eat too much, it will be bad." ”
The little boy said, "My father said that I need to eat more now to grow up faster." ”
Li Xiuping was stunned, this is almost every child's dream, because just a few years ago, he was still a child, and he also wanted to grow up quickly, at that time, his master was still there, and he was still asking him to recite those jerky and difficult books.
At that time, he felt that when he grew up, he didn't have to carry it, and when he grew up, he could forge a sword like his master, and then he could cast a sword he liked and carry it to the city.
Later, Master left, and at that time, he felt that he had grown up, and at that time, for the first time, he didn't like the feeling of growing up.
Li Xiuping asked, "Why did you grow up?" ”
The little boy said without thinking: "When I grow up, I can go to make money with my grandfather, and I can protect my sister from those bad guys who bully her." ”
The little girl pouted at this time and said, "Who wants you to protect, I can protect myself and protect you." ”
The little boy smiled and said: "My sister is like this, she is stubborn, and she was chased by a big yellow dog for two streets a few days ago, not to mention how sad she is to cry." ”
The little girl suddenly blushed and had a thick neck, and said coldly: "Whoever cried, you cried." ”
After glancing at Li Xiuping as he spoke, and after finding that Li Xiuping happened to be looking at her, he snorted coldly, pulled the little boy over, and then made a gesture to fight.
The little boy had obviously been beaten before, but at this moment he was like a loach, instantly broke free from the little girl's control, and jumped down the steps with an arrow, but after running two steps, his body suddenly froze, and then the whole body was shrouded in a layer of radiant light.
A similar situation occurred with the little girl who was preparing to chase her.
Finding the changes in the two children, Li Xiuping couldn't help frowning and being a little worried.
He knew it was the result of the meat, but he didn't know if it was good or bad.
He didn't want to let these two children have any changes because of himself, and the sin would be great.
The little red girl smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is just stimulating their spiritual roots." ”
Li Xiuping was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but look at the two children, and muttered, "This is the spiritual root?" ”
He doesn't have a spiritual root, so the word spiritual root stimulates him a lot.
Because he didn't have a spiritual root, he could be picked up by the master, and because he didn't have a spiritual root, he could practice the cultivation method left by the master, so that he could embark on the path he has now and come to this point.
And before that, he was extremely eager for the spiritual root, because at that time, he felt that as long as he had the spiritual root, he could completely change his life, so even if he successfully embarked on the path of cultivation later, the so-called spiritual root could still touch the depths of his heart.
The old man who drove the boat knelt directly in front of Li Xiuping at this moment, bowed three times and bowed nine times, and was grateful to Dade.
Although he is just an ordinary person who drives ships to send people away for a lifetime, he also knows what it means for a person to appear a spiritual root.
With a spiritual root, you have the qualifications to practice, and being able to practice is equivalent to being able to embark on a completely different path.
Everyone in the world wants to become an immortal, and they all want to live forever, but the conditions for becoming an immortal are too harsh, and the condition of the spiritual root alone is enough to shut countless people out.
Now that his granddaughters and grandchildren have spiritual roots, it means that they can embark on the path of cultivating immortals, which is enough to change their lives.
Such a great grace, grace and reconstruction, so how can he not be grateful?
Li Xiuping didn't expect that a small piece of meat would have such a great impact on an ordinary person, and thought to himself that if he could eat such meat in the first place, would he also be able to have a spiritual root?
He soon felt that it was unlikely, if there was such a magical thing, his master would definitely give it to him, and his master had such ability.
And the little red girl also said that this is just to stimulate their spiritual roots, not to give them spiritual roots, stimulating and endowing, it is completely different.
To give is to not have it now, and to excite is to have it in the past, but it has not appeared, and now it is manifested.
The man dressed as a scholar was at a loss at the moment, and he didn't know what was going on, why his father knelt in front of the young man, so out of shape.
