Castle Peak Castle.

After leaving the customs, Li Han's black hair turned white by nearly half, and for the monk who was nearly fifty years old and in the prime of life, he now mixed up with a twilight color.

"Cold!"

When he came to the pavilion, his gray hair was messy and he didn't say a word, and he weakly took the wine on the stone table and drank it all.

"Boom... Gollum ......"

Li Han, who has always been strong-willed, never indulges himself on weekdays, but today he directly drank a pot of spirit wine.

Murong Yue on the side sighed and shook her head, but Lin Changan frowned, seeing the problem of Li Han at this time.

"Li Han, you forcibly broke through the realm, and you were even more attacked, and it will take at least a year or two to recover from this injury alone."

Li Han's will to seek the Tao was indeed firm, and in the end, he forcibly broke through with his will, and his success failed, causing his body to be counterattacked.

Murong Yue also sighed and said, "Brother Li Han, you shouldn't have forcibly rushed through the level, so your body has suffered a backlash, when will you make the next breakthrough?" ”

Finally! The wine in the pot was exhausted, and Li Han, who put down the wine jug, looked at the two of them, his eyes were gloomy, and he shook his head and said hoarsely: "Forcibly? If I don't force my way through, will I still have a chance? ”

"It's hard to find the foundation building pill, even though Senior Brother Lin's alchemy is unparalleled, but now the foundation building materials outside are all priceless and unavailable, and I can't buy them at all, I still have a chance to forcibly rush through the level now, if I wait for the ethereal future! If I don't have this opportunity in my life, I will regret it for the rest of my life. ”

Although the foundation building failed, Li Han also seemed to have a deeper understanding of this life, especially for this gamble, he did not regret it at all.

A thousand birds in the forest is not as good as a bird in hand.

Now that he has taken Tsukidan, he naturally wants to fight in the cauldron, and instead of looking forward to the unknown possibilities in the future, he would rather fight hard when he has the opportunity now.

Li Han's thought also made Murong Yue feel a lot of emotion, yes, she said comforting words only when she saw Li Han's breakthrough failure, what if it was before?

If Li Han is really looking forward to the so-called unknown future, it will make people look down on him even more, and his own Dao heart will also be damaged, if he breaks through and encounters difficulties in the future, will he continue to look forward to the future?

If it were herself, would she back down at the critical moment of the breakthrough?

Murong Yue shook her head secretly when she thought of this, she wouldn't either, because there was only one chance, and no one knew what it would be like in the future.

"I've disappointed you, Senior Brother Lin."

The spirit wine, which is sweet and has an endless aftertaste on weekdays, is bitter in the mouth this time, Li Han looked at Lin Changan, said hoarsely, and his eyes were full of gloom.

"Take care of your wounds."

After making so many preparations, Li Han still failed, and Lin Changan was also mentally prepared for this, after all, the purifying power effect he injected into this Zhuji Dan still needed to be slowly absorbed.

The biggest benefit of his purification power for Li Han when he breaks through is to temporarily suppress the dark wound, and at the same time stabilize the side effects of erysipelas, which can allow Li Han to impact the foundation with all his strength.

And this purifying power is silent in the body, and it takes a while to truly heal the dark wound and remove the effect of erysipelas.

For Li Han, Lin Changan sighed, and didn't say too many comforting words, even he is hard to find foundation building materials at the moment, this thing is purely a strategic material under turmoil, and everyone is covered by a baby.

"I want to go back and walk around and see my family."

The failure of this breakthrough was too big a blow to Li Han, and his eyes were dim at this time, after all, at his age, he was about to pass fifty.

This time he had already emptied his life savings, and even if he was given another Tsukidan, it would take him a few years to cultivate.

For Li Han's scene, Lin Changan sighed secretly, shaking his head, he didn't refuse, and it was impossible for him to help the other party without restraint, after all, the cost of a Zhuji Dan outside was so high at the moment, and there would be tens of thousands of spirit stones if it was circulated.

"This is a bottle of healing elixir, stabilize the injury first, and then go back and have a look."

Lin Changan handed over a bottle of elixir, and there was a jade plate, with which Li Han could take the spirit boat outside the city to enter and exit the border.

After taking the pill and token, Li Han nodded silently, and said hoarsely, "Thank you." ”

Then Li Han slowly got up and didn't continue to stay here, at this moment he finally felt why the strength of the Immortal Cultivation Realm had the final say.

Lin Changan and Murong Yue were both foundation building cultivators, and he didn't feel much of it before, because he was still bent on breaking through, but this time, he felt the gap.

Especially when the four of them entered the sect together, they also cultivated together, he was an innate grandmaster in the mortal world at the beginning, and his combat power was also a top existence among the four, but after a few decades passed, the gap in identity was getting bigger and bigger.

Looking at Li Han, who was lonely and leaving, Lin Changan and Murong Yue didn't talk too much, but the two of them sat in the pavilion, speechless for a long time at this moment.

"Hey, creation makes people, Brother Li's will is extraordinary, he is the most determined to seek immortals among all of us at the beginning, but Qi Feng has good qualifications but has long lost his enterprising spirit, but now he has children and grandchildren under his knees."

"It's really a trick." Murong Yue said faintly, this matter is never wrong or right.

Although Qi Feng has a full house of children and grandchildren, do you also say that he doesn't regret it? He must also regret that he should have done penance when he was younger, and perhaps there would be a chance to build a foundation.

This is the human heart.

"The Dao heart is firmly lacking talent, and the gifted is wasting talent, and the world is impermanent."

Lin Changan shook his head, the two of them were full of emotion in the pavilion, although the two of them were not very old, they had experienced too much over the years, and they had seen too many situations.

Three days later, Li Han left, just in time for this group of Lingzhou to come.

A few months later......

Qingniu Town on the border of the Great Jin Dynasty.

"After so many years of leaving, there is still no change."

A gray hair tied up, with a hat of the bitter cold appeared on the familiar country road of his childhood, looking at the lively market and children playing on the street, a rare smile appeared on his vicissitudes of life.

"When I was a child, I was carefree when I played here, and I looked forward to growing up and earning money to live a good life every day, and it would be nice to be able to eat a nest of heads."

"It turned out that the happiest time was when I was a child, but when I grew up, I couldn't go back." Under the timidity of homesickness, Li Han looked at the familiar scenes, and his eyes became more and more moist.

Looking at the children playing at the joints, it seems that they saw their former self, at that time they couldn't eat enough every day, and they also played like this, and their biggest wish was to grow up quickly, and then go outside to earn a lot of money in exchange for a lot of food.

"I'm not short of money now, I have everything, but!" Li Han muttered hoarsely, but his eyes were clouded with a layer of fog at some point.

"There's no going back! There's no going back! ”

Lowering the hat, Li Han rushed in the crowd in the direction of home, it turned out that only childhood is the happiest, people will grow up and their hearts will get bigger and bigger, and they will never be satisfied.

He has already achieved that he is not short of money when he was a child, not to mention that he has achieved freedom in Wowotou, even if it is a big fish and meat every day, it is no problem, but the happiness of childhood can not be recovered.

"Home! Is this where I used to be? ”

When he walked to the familiar home, Li Han was at a loss, the former earthen embryo house has now become a spacious and tall Li Mansion, which is completely a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits.

"It's really a blessing to be a good person."

"Who said it wasn't, I heard that the eldest son of Li Yuanwai is a martial arts master outside, and he is famous."

"Tsk, I'm really envious, it's really a person who has ascended to heaven, you look at the old Li at the beginning, now they are all outside the force, and even the young son in the family has become a warrior with the blessing......"

Under the voice of envy in his ears, Li Han realized at this moment that his home had changed so much over the years.

His hometown has not changed much, but his home has changed dramatically with him.

After surviving his head in the Great Sword Gate, he returned home once, leaving a lot of silver, and at the same time taught his parents and younger brother some martial arts pills in the mortal world, not to mention prolonging life, but it is also a rare pill in the mortal world that cleanses the muscles and marrow.

Relying on the gold and silver that he had never thought of a few times to send back, he changed the direction of his family, from an ordinary tenant farmer, to a famous and powerful man in less than 30 years.

He built a big house, purchased hundreds of acres of land, and became a well-known man.

Even his family practiced martial arts, and they became famous martial artists, not to mention how powerful they were, but in this small place, it was enough to protect their family, and it could become a legacy.

I don't know why, Li Han habitually hid his body in a daze and entered this familiar and unfamiliar courtyard, the strange thing is this big courtyard, it is no longer his kind adobe house, it is obviously better, but he feels strange.

What is familiar is the familiar faces, the once precious torn patches of coarse cloth clothes, but now they are not seen at home, but they are clearly dressed figures.

"Second master, this is the harvest of our Li family this year, this year's wind and rain are smooth, it is a good year."

In the room, Li Fei, a younger brother in his forties with a noble atmosphere, listened to the housekeeper's report, and couldn't help but look at the account book in his hand with satisfaction, wearing a luxurious robe, showing his identity.

"Yes, this year's harvest is good, and the tenant farmers below can have a good year."

"It's still the second master, you are kind-hearted."

Facing the housekeeper's praise, Li Fei waved his hand and sighed: "I am from a poor family, so I naturally know the suffering of the people below, but these stinky boys have been pampered since childhood, and they don't understand the suffering below. ”

When Li Fei said this, he also looked melancholy, he was born in poverty, and if he could, he would naturally help the people below, but his own children!

And Li Han, who was hiding outside the house and saw all this, was shocked with a touch of consternation, "The second brother has children?" ”

"Yes, the second brother is in his forties, if I was still at home, I'm afraid my father and mother would have found a daughter-in-law for me at fifteen, sixteen or seven."

Then he saw a few brightly dressed young people in the backyard, as well as several young children playing and playing, and he was dazed, it turned out that he had not only become an uncle, but even his eldest nephew had already married his own son.

When he finally entered the backyard, he saw his parents who had suffered too much, and the years had left indelible marks on his face, but now the gray-haired second elder was smiling and teasing his grandson and granddaughter, and the smile on his face was even more rare to see in Li Han.

"You stinky boys, don't make a fuss."

"Haha, grandpa, in the future, I want to become a martial arts master like my grandfather and fight all the bad guys."

"Me too, I want to be the number one master in the world......"

"Haha, yes, yes, you are all martial arts masters."

When the second elder heard about his son, a proud smile appeared on his face, and this scene made Li Han's eyes moist hidden in the corner.

It turned out that his status in the family was so high, and his father and mother were even more proud of him.

As if sensing something, his mother looked back blankly, "Old man, was there anyone just now?" ”

The white-haired old Li turned his head, looked at the branches in the distance, and suddenly waved his hand with a smile on his face: "You are presbyopia, what are you thinking?" ”

"Let's go, I'll help you go over and rest, and let these naughty dogs play here."

The two elders helped each other to the pavilion under the tree, and as the two elders sat down, there were exactly two wet raindrops under their feet that were trampled under the feet of the two elders.

"Old man, I don't know what happened to Han'er outside."

After sitting down, the mother seemed to have a sense, and suddenly remembered her son who was far away, and her eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, while the father was obviously stronger, and couldn't help but smile and wave his hand.

"You old woman, don't worry about it, it's not like you don't know that Han'er is a person who does big things outside, and besides, letters and silver have been sent every once in a while over the years, and this kid doesn't know how to save some for himself, really."

"This kid is promising, but when he's so old, he can't just do big things, and he won't be his own son."

"Old man, Han'er must have suffered a lot outside."

The second elder said melancholy, the mother wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes from time to time, but the father was strong and scolded, saying that his son was a person who did big things outside, don't hold back.

for several days, until half a month later......

Under the sunset, on a mountain, Li Han looked at his hometown, especially the joyful Li Mansion, and his eyes were full of peace of mind.

"Father, mother, I am relieved to see that you two elders are doing well, and my younger brother is also very good, supporting the family and developing very well."

Li Han muttered to himself, he originally wanted to come back and reunite with his family, maybe it would be good to live the rest of his life, but after he came back, he found that his family had a good life and was happy.

In particular, he found that he seemed to have a layer of estrangement from his family, and this estrangement was not in his identity, but between mortals and cultivators.

"The path of cultivating immortals that I am pursuing, I have no regrets."

Under the setting sun, a smile appeared on Li Han's face, and the previously dim eyes resurfaced this time with the once firm look, even more determined than before.

His family is well, he has no regrets, and all he wants in this life is to cultivate the way of immortal immortality.

"Daddy, mother! Li Han is leaving again, please forgive me for not seeing each other this time, don't worry......"

Under the reflection of the setting sun, the figure wearing a hat on the mountain disappeared without a trace, and at this time, Qingniu Town was still so lively, and everyone in the Li family was still happy every day.

But in the sunset, Father Li, who was lying on a chair in the backyard of Li's house, seemed to have a sense, got up and looked at the mountains in the distance suspiciously.

"It's strange, old woman, I seem to have seen a figure on the hill in the distance, and then I left again."

"Old man, what are you thinking, the mountain is so far away, you can see it?"

The old couple supported each other and returned to the house with a smile, but they didn't know that their son had returned, and he was by their side every day for half a month. (End of chapter)
