The fire burned quickly, and it didn't take long for Li Yu's grandmother to disappear into the world.

Li Yu put the ashes little by little into the container he had prepared in advance and offered them to the top of the hall. Originally, he wanted Lu Ming and the others to take the ashes away and find a place with peach blossoms for Grandma to bury, but if she thought about it, if Grandma had a spirit, she would want to live in the place where she has lived for so many years. What's more, now that Hongquan Mountain is like this, what's the point of finding a place to bury it.

Shui Linglong and Lie Yankong found a place to meditate and breathe with peace of mind, originally Lu Ming wanted to accompany him by his side, but was rejected by Li Yuwan, he knew that they were going to leave tomorrow, and besides, they could help and do everything, so there was really no need to continue to accompany him to do anything!

After Li Yu packed everything up, he looked at the sky and knew that it would be dawn soon.

He didn't lie down to rest, nor did he sit in a daze, but took out the paper and rope he had brought back from the town, and went out to find some tenacious bamboo sticks, and began to get busy skillfully.

He flipped his hands and followed the steps Grandma had taught him before, carefully and rigorously combining them into the shape he wanted.

When Li Yu was doing this, he remembered the time he used to get along with Grandma, at that time, there was no disaster, and although the days were sad, under Grandma's careful management, they could also make the two of them feel happy.

It was last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the bright moon in the sky was very big and bright, and Grandma made a small moon cake with the only white flour at home, which was wrapped with peanuts, almonds, sesame seeds, and sugar. In his memory, he didn't eat moon cakes, but no one had ever accompanied him to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon cakes he ate were only left to reward him if others didn't eat them.

Those moon cakes are more exquisite, and the fillings inside are more precious and rare, but when he saw the moon cake that Grandma made for him, and ate the taste that Grandma specially prepared for him, he felt that this was the best moon cake he had ever eaten, even if it was rare before, it was not as good as Grandma's making.

Even, in his opinion, the things made by Grandma are the best in the world, even if they are made with wild vegetables, they are the only delicious things in the world.

He remembered that day Grandma held him in her arms, he held the moon cake in his hand, and broke it little by little to eat, he took a bite, Grandma took a bite.

The grandfather and grandson looked at the bright moon in the sky, and their faces were happy and contented.

Later, Li Yu saw a bright light rising in the sky and slowly flying towards the night sky, so he asked, "Grandma, what is flying in the sky?" ”

Grandma looked at it and said, "It's a sky lantern." ”

Li Yu asked, "Sky lanterns?" Is it any use? ”

Grandma explained to him, "Legend has it that by writing a wish on a sky lantern, it can tell God what it wants. ”

Li Yu asked puzzledly, "Is it really useful?" ”

Grandma didn't rush to answer, and asked him with a smile, "Does Xiaoyu also have a wish?" ”

Li Yu lowered his head and thought about it very seriously, then raised his head and said, "I used to hope to live a better life, no one bullied me, and the result really came true, and then I lived a life without food, without drinking, and wandering around." I also hoped that I could have food and drink, and as a result, I met my grandmother, and I felt very satisfied and happy now, but I was also a little scared. ”

Grandma was originally curious about what such a young child would want, but she didn't expect to hear such a long string of words, which made her feel a little novel, so she continued to ask, "Then what are you afraid of?" ”

Li Yu continued, "I'm afraid that what I gain, I will lose something. It's as if we want to make a wish, and once the wish comes true, we have to pay other costs. ”

Grandma understood, he didn't expect Li Yu to think so much, but it didn't take long for her to feel that no matter how strange things happened to him, it wasn't so strange.

After she got along with Li Yu, she could feel that although Li Yu was a three-year-old child, he was extremely intelligent, and even many things and insights surpassed most ordinary people.

But she didn't ask Li Yu about his past, because she felt that since such a different and good child could be separated from his family, his past must have made him very uncomfortable.

After thinking about it for a while, Grandma touched Li Yu's head and said, "What Xiao Yu said is right, God is fair, what we have, naturally there will be nothing." No one's life is perfect, without any regrets, but the days are very long, we can't know how the life will end, what we can do is to live the present well, try to make it without regrets. In fact, wish is not so much a hope, but a kind of expectation for a better future. After all, there are a lot of hardships in life, and it's better to give yourself a little sweetness than to soak in bitter water every day, what do you say? ”

After Li Yu heard this, he nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Does Grandma have any wishes?" ”

Grandma hugged him, thought about it for a while, and said slowly, "Grandma did have a lot of wishes before, I hope my husband can come back, I hope my child doesn't die, I hope that life can be better, some eat, my body doesn't have so much pain, and I can go without pain when I die." ”

After speaking, he lowered his head to Li Yu and smiled softly and lovingly, "But Grandma met you later, so she didn't have so many wishes." Now with you, Grandma is very satisfied and happy. ”

She continued to ask, "What about Xiaoyu?" Do you feel happy living with your grandmother? ”

Li Yu nodded very vigorously and said with a loud smile, "I am very happy, very happy, very, very happy." ”

The joy of the ancestors and grandchildren was only seen by the bright moon in the sky, but neither of them knew at that time that those beautiful and happy days were so short.

Later, Grandma asked again, "Does Xiaoyu want to put a sky lantern?" ”

Li Yu nodded in response, so Grandma found bamboo strips, paper and lamp oil to come out, and tied a sky lantern for Li Yu.

Li Yu was helping by the side, and also listened to Grandma teach him what to do, and took it to heart, and then Grandma asked him to take the brush out and asked him, "Does Xiaoyu have any expectations?" ”

After thinking for a while, he said, "I want to be with Grandma for a long time." ”

Grandma smiled warmly, asked him to write his wish on it, and then lit a fire, only to see a sky lantern belonging to the two of them slowly fly into the sky, flying higher and higher.

At that moment, Li Yu felt that he was really happy.

Li Yu once thought that he would accompany his grandmother for a long time like this, without suffering, without parting, without the separation of yin and yang.

But most of the good things in the world are not strong, the clouds are easy to scatter and the glass is brittle, and good dreams are never by people.

Such a happy day is only two years old, and it is like a mirror, and it is empty in an instant.

Li Yu was holding the sky lantern, his heart couldn't help but be blocked, he wanted to cry, but he couldn't cry.

Maybe he was really smart, or maybe it was with the help of his grandmother in the Heavenly Spirit, he was getting faster and faster, and by the time Lu Ming and the others woke up, there were already more than twenty sky lanterns beside Li Yu, each of which was the size of a big bucket.

Seeing this, Lu Ming stepped forward and asked, "You haven't slept all night?" Is it all about this? ”

Li Yu looked at him with red eyes, and said with a slight smile, "Well, Grandma and I used to like to put sky lanterns very much. She said that the sky lantern represents our expectations and wishes for life. ”

Shui Linglong and Lie Yankong have lived in the sect since they were children, and they have only seen the heavenly lantern in the mortal world, but they have never seen the real thing, and they don't know what the effect of the heavenly lantern is. Seeing this, I couldn't help but ask a few more words.

Li Yu explained to them in detail, and then, Shui Linglong sighed with emotion after listening to it, "It turns out that mortal life is so bitter and sweet. ”

Flame Sky also said, "yes." Being in the midst of suffering, being able to enjoy suffering, is a state of mind that is stronger than that of most monks such as us. ”

Lu Ming didn't say anything about the sky lantern, but said to Li Yu, "I know that your grandma is gone, and you feel uncomfortable, but you have to look forward, too indulged in the past, it's not what your grandma wants to see." Your grandma has a spirit in the sky, and I hope you can let go of the past and live a good life from now on. ”

These words were a little inexplicable, which made Lie Yankong and Shui Linglong a little inexplicable when they heard it, I don't know how Lu Ming could say such words to Li Yu with such a good manner.

Shui Linglong didn't think too much about it, she heard that these words were a little harsh, so she couldn't bear to say to Lu Ming, "Senior Brother Lu, don't be so strict with him, he is a five-year-old child, and his only relative has just left, it is normal for him to miss his grandmother!" ”

Although Lie Yankong felt strange, he also knew that Lu Ming was not such a person for no reason, so he thought carefully about what Li Yu had done and what he said, and when he thought about it, he was shocked, and he realized that the two of them had let go of many clues, and these were only seen by Lu Ming.

Li Yu actually had a will to die.

Lu Ming ignored Shui Linglong, but continued to stare at Li Yu with both eyes, giving him a sense of oppression, and Shui Linglong saw that Lu Ming ignored her and did not react, and she also began to feel a little annoyed.

This annoyance is not only because Lu Ming ignores her, but also out of sympathy for Li Yu, how can he be so strict with a five-year-old child who has just lost a loved one.

She was about to continue talking, but she was quickly stopped by the scorching Yan empty eyes on the side, and sent a voice to her, "Senior Sister Shui, don't worry, Senior Brother Lu didn't mean it, didn't you realize that Li Yu already had a will to die?" Senior Brother Lu is so strict because he wants to arouse his desire to survive, otherwise, even if any of us take him away, I am afraid that he will not live long. ”

Shui Linglong is not a completely impulsive and reckless person, after hearing Lie Yankong say this, she also reacted, many of Li Yu's actions and words seemed to be that he didn't want to owe anyone, but from another point of view, he didn't want to prepare for his own afterlife.

Moreover, the words he said in front of his grandmother's spirit yesterday sounded reluctant, but didn't he want to go with her?

Yes, everything is traceable.

It turned out that from the very beginning, he was ready to go with his grandmother.

Li Yu asked Lu Ming, "Brother Lu, you guessed it a long time ago, right?" ”

Lu Ming was silent.

Li Yu continued, "Actually, I already knew that Grandma wouldn't last these two days, so when I met you in the town, I was going to pay off everything I owed them, and then I went with Grandma without worry. ”

"But I didn't expect to meet you, later, you were going to Hongquan Mountain to deal with monsters, I went with you, I originally held on to hope, you can destroy it, help my grandma avenge. But I didn't expect him to be so powerful, I don't blame the sky, and I can't blame you. All I could do was go with Grandma. ”

Lu Ming walked up to him, pressed his shoulder, and continued hatefully, "I know you're very uncomfortable, but have you forgotten what your grandma told you when she was dying?" She wants you to live well. Do you live like this? After her death, immediately threw her last words out of the clouds and self-destructed her life? ”

Li Yu looked at Lu Ming's eyes and said with a smile that seemed to be careless, "In this world, only Grandma is good to me." I don't want to live anymore, it's too tiring to live. I'm five years old this year, and I've only been happy in the past two years, and my grandmother gave me all these happiness, so I will go wherever she goes. ”

Shui Linglong finally couldn't help but roar beside her, "Li Yu, you are confused, when a person dies, there is nothing, only by living in the future can there be infinite possibilities, and can you encounter many happy and happy things." ”

Lie Yankong also persuaded and said, "Yes, Li Yu, don't do stupid things. Although we didn't help you avenge your grandma's revenge, don't you want to avenge it yourself? Don't you want to exterminate the mountain demons and phantom demons? ”

Lie Yankong knew that instead of persuading the other party to live well, it was better to give him a reason to live, even if the reason was revenge, it was much better than wanting to die.

After hearing this, Shui Linglong also hurriedly said, "Yes, Li Yu, although we didn't eliminate him, our divisions are very strong. As long as you follow us, no matter which of our sects you enter, we will train you to become a very powerful immortal cultivator. You will achieve high things wherever you are, and when the time comes, what we can't do, maybe you can do. ”

Flame Sky also hurriedly continued, "No matter where you choose to go, we will do everything we can to cultivate you. ”

Lu Ming also said, "What they said is right. You have a very good talent for cultivating immortals, as long as you work diligently, one day, you will be able to avenge your grandma with your own hands. ”

Li Yu looked at the three people in front of him with a wry smile, and said very sadly, "Haven't you seen it yet?" Actually, I can't cultivate immortals. ”
