Chapter 239: Morning Flowers and Sunset

() When he entered the house, He Tianyao didn't notice that on the beam in the hall, there was a bracket with a sword on it.

Although he was wearing a sword holster, He Tianyao still recognized it from the hilt of the sword: "Isn't that your Painted Shadow Sword?

"It was given to me by the bus when I was leaving. Since I was thirteen years old, this Shadow Sword has been with me, it can be said to be a memory of a period of my life, how can I be willing to part with it?" Zhu Xiaomin said.

"The Painted Shadow Sword is a good fairy sword, and it is of the same quality as my Guding Sword. It's a pity that Master didn't take it with him when he took me away. But that's fine, the two Shadow Immortal Swords of the Loose Pattern Sword and the Gu Ding Sword can be passed on to the next user together. He Tianyao said.

Zhu Xiaomin's expression was gloomy: "How can it be so easy to find the right candidate...... Without the tacit understanding between you and Brother Tianxiao, those two fairy swords would not be able to exert their strongest effect, and I am afraid they will be sealed for a long time. ”

"Actually, ever since Brother Tianxiao gave up cultivating immortals and left the sect, we are no longer suitable to be the masters of those two shadow swords. He Tianyao said lonely.

Zhu Xiaomin sighed: "Brother Tianxiao turned to demon cultivation but ended up with a miserable ending, with his qualifications, it's a pity." ”

"Aren't you the same? You don't concentrate on cultivation, but you come here to be some kind of shopkeeper, and you waste the talent of this first-class bone in vain...... Hey, by the way, why are you in Xuzhou? I remember that your hometown is not here. He Tianyao was puzzled.

"The Immortal Demon War almost destroyed the Qinglong Continent, where is there still a hometown? The rebuilt new city has no taste of the past, and I don't have any nostalgia at all. There are two reasons for choosing Xuzhou to settle down: one is that it is close to the Wuling Mountain Range, and it is more convenient to visit the senior brother and the second senior sister in the Qinglong Sect; No, I've finally waited for you. Zhu Xiaomin smiled, "In addition, I'm not a mere shopkeeper, my current identity is the owner of Xueqing Inn." ”

"Heh, I don't want to be a sword immortal, but I want to be a rich man. How are you doing all these years?"

"Ordinary days are just three full, and one is down. 'Guests come and go, flowers fall and bloom year after year', and Yuejie looks together, I feel very happy. Zhu Xiaomin's expression was full of sweetness.

"Do you often visit them, how are they?"

"Cultivating immortals must be focused, how can I always disturb them. Besides, the store can't do without me, and I have been working hard for my two daughters all these years, so I haven't visited them for more than ten years. The last time I went, the senior brother was in retreat, and he and the second senior sister had already ascended to the realm of annihilation, so maybe they were both Mahayana at this time. ”

"What about Sister Qingyu?"

Zhu Xiaomin sighed deeply: "I heard from the second senior sister, Sister Qingyu also left the Taiqing Sect shortly after I left, and she has not been found yet. ”

"Why did she leave too?"

"Master and Master are gone, and she is embarrassed to continue to stay in the sect. Before leaving, she said to the senior brother and the second senior sister that she should find a place rich in medicinal materials and poisons to retreat. Now I don't know where she is or how she is doing......" recalled the past, and a few tears welled up from the corners of Zhu Xiaomin's eyes.

The door suddenly opened, and Qin Yuejie walked in with a little girl in his left and right hands: "It's rare for us to get together, don't mention sad things." It's already a great joy to see Senior Brother He again in our lifetimes, do you say, Xiaomin?"

Zhu Xiaomin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile: "That's right." Senior Brother He, this is my twin daughters, Qin Aoxue, Qin Lingshuang. Xue'er, Shuang'er, come and call your uncle!"

The two little girls were not shy at all, and the two walked hand in hand in front of He Tianyao together, and bowed deeply: "Uncle!"

"Hey, Senior Brother He is also my senior brother, how can you call him uncle? Qin Yuejie laughed and came to the table and sat down.

"It must be uncle, I have known Brother Tianyao for a long time, of course you have to call me here. Zhu Xiaomin argued.

Qin Yuejie was about to speak, when one of the little girls suddenly interjected: "Mother said to be called uncle, father said to be called uncle, then it might as well be called 'uncle'!"

"Uncle?" Qin Yuejie and Zhu Xiaomin glanced at each other and laughed, what kind of strange title is this.

He Tianyao hugged the two cute little girls: "Okay! Uncle will be uncle! Uncle came suddenly this time, and he didn't prepare a gift for you, I will definitely supply you later!"

"Uncle, it's a deal!" said the little girl on the left.

"Uncle, let's pull Gou!" the little girl on the right stretched out her little thumb.

"Okay, Uncle does what he says, but the two of you look too alike, I can't tell the difference, which of you is Aoxue?

Zhu Xiaomin said: "Brother Tianyao, you can see the hair rotation of the two of them, the one that rotates to the left is Aoxue, and the one who rotates to the right is Ling Shuang. ”

He Tianyao hugged the two little girls on the stool separately and said with a smile: "Seeing that the two of them are so lively and cute, they are exactly the same as when Xiaomin first went up the mountain." How old are they?"

"I'm exactly 10 years old this year. Qin Yuejie said.

"Do you have any plans to let them cultivate immortals?" He Tianyao asked. Twelve years old is the most suitable age for cultivating immortals and entering the Tao, and there are still two years between the two little girls.

"Speaking of which, we have also thought about it for a long time. The two of us gave up cultivation in the second level, and we still have more than a hundred years to live, if these two little things don't cultivate immortals, they won't live for a hundred years at most, and then we will definitely have to send them away first...... I can't stand that blow. But if you send them to cultivate immortals, they will definitely gather less and leave more in the future, which is also a worry, alas. As we approached the age of twelve, we were in a dilemma. Zhu Xiaomin said.

He Tianyao nodded. He can understand Zhu Xiaomin's mood. He himself left home at the age of twelve

How long did it take for my father and mother to die. Once you choose the path of cultivating immortals, the chances of getting together with your relatives will inevitably decrease, and there is no way to do it.

The wine and food were served on the table one after another, and Qin Yuejie poured a glass of wine for He Tianyao and said, "Xiaomin, she is the benevolence of some women." My opinion is that it is absolutely necessary to cultivate immortals, since the unification of the immortal cultivation world in the Qinglong Continent, there is no longer a sect dispute, and everyone can choose their favorite sword book to cultivate. Besides, Xiaomin's great-grandfather should not have survived the catastrophe now, and if he sent Xue'er and Shuang'er to the Qinglong Sect, he would definitely be well taken care of......

Zhu Xiaomin was disgusted: "If you don't know, don't talk nonsense." Grandpa Zeng is already in the Mahayana realm, and he has long been out of the Chiri Mountain Domain, so it is difficult to see him. ”

"Of course I do. Although Sect Master Zhu entered the Tiancheng Mountain Domain, after all, he was once the Sect Master of the Red Sun Sect, and he was also the oldest senior among the Seven Great Sects after the Immortal Demon War, and now the successors of these sects will finally give him enough face, right?"

Zhu Xiaomin said: "To be honest, I don't really want to take advantage of the relationship with my great-grandfather. The future of Cher and Frost depends on their own efforts. Besides, it's not clear whether they are suitable for cultivating immortals, it depends on the qualifications of the root bones, doesn't it?"

Qin Yuejie enthusiastically sandwiched all kinds of delicacies into He Tianyao's bowl, and said confidently: "Don't worry, our daughter definitely doesn't have to say anything." I don't want them to favor Xue'er and Shuang'er more, I just hope to appoint a better master. Just like Elder Yu, only a famous teacher can produce a high apprentice!"

"Forget it, I can't talk about you. If they want to go, let them go. ”

"Mother, can Xiu Xian fly around like you?" Qin Aoxue held a chicken leg and ate it with a shiny mouth.

"Hehe, yes. Zhu Xiaomin smiled and explained to He Tianyao, "A long time ago, there was a thief in a nightclub, and I flew out with the Shadow Sword in a hurry, and was seen by these two little girls. Since then, I have placed the Shadow Sword on this beam, so that it will not be seen by those with bad intentions who covet my fairy sword. ”

"Little sister, do you want to fly around?" Qin Aoxue asked.

Qin Lingshuang stuffed a dumpling into his mouth: "Hmm...... I especially want to. Let's go and cultivate immortals. ”

Qin Yuejie laughed: "Look, they all want to go." ”

"It's a child after all, and it's too simple to think. Zhu Xiaomin said solemnly to the two little girls, "It's very hard to cultivate immortals. ”

"If my father and mother can do it, so can we. Qin Aoxue didn't care.

"By the way, Senior Brother He, let's talk about you. Where were you taken by the Sword Immortal in the first place?Why haven't you heard from you for so many years?" Qin Yuejie asked.

"It didn't take long for Shizun to ascend, but he violated the Heavenly Forbidden by killing Ye Shenrong, suffered the punishment of Heaven, and lost a considerable part of his strength. Then, in order to teach me, he blocked the operation of spiritual power in his body. In this way, he can stay in the Blue Dragon Continent for a little longer. However, because my realm was too low at that time, and my master had many superb swordsmanship and body skills that he couldn't teach, he always felt that he didn't have enough time, so he stared at me very closely, and didn't allow me to be distracted by other things at all. For more than 30 years, I have worked so hard and so hard that you may not be able to imagine that life was no different from hell...... I don't even want to think back to those days now. He Tianyao smiled bitterly and took a sip of wine.

"We've met the storyteller together, and he doesn't look like such a stern person. Zhu Xiaomin recalled the experience of going down the mountain with He Tianyao and Hua Qingyu to find Tianxiao, and smiled, "He is even a little greedy for money." ”

"Hey, Xiaomin, don't be rude to the Sword Immortal! Speaking of which, he is a great hero who saved the people from fire and water. Qin Yuejie said.

He Tianyao said: "Pretending to be a storyteller is just the result of the leisure of the old man, as the so-called 'small hidden in the wild, big hidden in the city'." At that time, the city of Suizhou was bustling, and no one found out that Shizun was a figure who was powerful enough to dominate the world? Shizun's name was Jiang Chengdong, and he was called 'Swift Light Sword Immortal'. ”

"Sword immortals are also good and bad. It's like killing Brother Tianxiao's Chu Yuanhui, I hate him in my heart for the rest of my life. Zhu Xiaomin said.

Qin Yuejie sighed: "Maybe Senior Brother Tianxiao is destined to have this catastrophe." Senior Brother He, then you are out of the mountain again, could it be that Jiang Jianxian has already ascended?"

He Tianyao nodded: "The master has worked hard to teach me everything that should be taught." A few days ago, I left a note and left. He knew that I had a lot of concerns, so he asked me to deal with my own affairs first and then concentrate on my cultivation, otherwise my long-cherished wish would not be fulfilled, and it would be a matter of my heart after all. ”

"How do you say it like you're going to become a monk...... Zhu Xiaomin said with a smile.

He Tianyao also smiled faintly: "Since I have practiced with my master, I have not even visited the tombs of my master and my mother, nor have I visited my father and mother. I still have Senior Brother, Second Senior Sister, Sister Qingyu and you in my heart. By the way, there is also Senior Brother Lu. In addition, the tombs of the three of them also have to be visited. There are so many things I want to do, and I don't know what to do first. I thought that you, Senior Brother and Senior Sister were all in the Blue Dragon Sect, so I planned to get together with you at the end. Yesterday, I went to Tiandao Mountain, worshiped Master and Senior Lady, and also looked at Senior Sister Xiao and Brother Tianxiao. After worshipping my father and mother today, the ghost sent the gods into Xuzhou City, but I didn't want you to happen to be here. ”

Qin Yuejie said nostalgically: "Senior Brother Lu...... I miss him too. I still remember the first time I went to see him in the Blue Dragon Sect, he was angry and angry because of my original farewell. ”

"The three seniors of Lu, Miao, and Jiang led the three of us down the mountain to cultivate, broadened our meridians, and helped us to give birth to a primordial baby in just two years, so great kindness, but we couldn't repay each other......" Zhu Xiaomin looked sad.

He Tianyao said: "Senior Lu did not forget to ask for the lives of the Dragon Clan for the people of our continent even when he was about to cross the catastrophe, and Senior Miao and Senior Jiang were killed one after another in the battle with the Dragon Clan......

In the end, Senior Miao was in a different place, and Senior Jiang was even cut in two by the Dragon Clan. The most pitiful is Senior Lu, who was so harmed by the traitor that he didn't even have bones, and he couldn't be buried thickly, so he had to enshrine a spiritual seat in an incense hall...... Who would have thought that the three predecessors, who have always been chivalrous and courageous, would end up so miserably. Zhu Xiaomin sighed.

Recalling the painful past, the three of them fell silent, only the two ignorant children were still feasting.

The joy of reunion after a long absence is only a flash in the pan, and the remembrance of the people and things that have passed away is the theme of the reunion of the three. That night, the three of them didn't know how much wine they drank and how many tears they shed.

After waking up the next day, He Tianyao originally planned to leave for the Qinglong Sect, but where were Zhu Xiaomin and his wife willing to let go?

"Then why don't you just go with me?" He Tianyao said.

"The children still need to be taken care of, so we can't take them with us, right? In two years, when we send the two little girls to the Qinglong Sect to cultivate immortals, we will visit the senior brother and sister again. Qin Yuejie said.

Zhu Xiaomin took He Tianyao's arm and didn't let go: "No matter what, you can't leave today, we are also open, what can you do if you don't do business for a month? You have to stay whatever you say!"

"A month, no, no, it's too long......" He Tianyao hesitated, "Why don't I ......wait until I come back from visiting them?"

"There's no need to shirk, they can still let you go when they see you?" the Blue Dragon Sect will definitely have to leave you behind, and I don't know when we will see you again!" Qin Yuejie said.

"How come, didn't you say that you were going to the Blue Dragon Sect in two years?"

Qin Yuejie glanced at the two daughters, the smart and clever Qin Aoxue and Qin Lingshuang understood, hugged He Tianyao's thighs left and right, and said coquettishly: "Uncle, I don't want you to go, you can play with us for a few more days!" The playful said: "Uncle, you still owe us gifts, can't you talk and don't count, you can't leave until you give us gifts!"

Facing these two cute little girls, He Tianyao was completely helpless, so he had to hug them and say, "Okay, okay, uncle won't leave, uncle will play with you and buy you gifts!"

The two little girls were so happy that they dragged He Tianyao out, insisting that he take him to the market to play.

Zhu Xiaomin and his wife sent the three of them out of the door, and witnessed the back of He Tianyao holding the little hands of the two of them away, the two looked at each other and smiled, and returned to the hall.

"Xiaomin, if I'm not mistaken, do you want Xue'er and Shuang'er to worship Senior Brother He as their teacher?"

"Yo, you see that?"

"Of course, I think I guessed what you thought about me, so we could get married! Besides, after living together for so many years, this tacit understanding is naturally not a problem!" Qin Yuejie patted his chest.

Zhu Xiaomin "poofed" and poked Qin Yuejie's forehead: "You! Just blow it! I still think about it at the beginning, you didn't dare to talk to me in the sect at the beginning, and finally you were bold enough to let you cheat it, and it was cheap for you!"

Qin Yuejie touched his head and smirked "hehe".

Zhu Xiaomin said with a straight face: "I have thought about it carefully yesterday, the Taiqing lineage already belongs to the Qinglong Sect, and after so many years, things are already wrong. Besides, now that the threshold for cultivating immortals has been relaxed, the middle and low-level immortal cultivators in the Qinglong Sect are bound to be mixed, there are all kinds of people, people's hearts are unpredictable, and there are always people with bad intentions. Besides, there are many disciples, and I don't know what kind of master I will appoint to Xue'er and Shuang'er. This is also the main reason why I have been hesitant to send them to cultivate immortals. Brother Tianyao's arrival just solved this problem, instead of letting them go to the Blue Dragon Sect to cultivate immortals, it was better to worship a ready-made master. We must be trustworthy of Brother Tianyao's character, if Xue'er and Shuang'er can follow him to cultivate, they will definitely have a better future. ”

Qin Yuejie nodded: "I understood what you meant after seeing your thoughts last night, so I instructed Xue'er and Shuang'er in advance to keep 'uncle'." I just don't know what Senior Brother He's current state is, and whether he has the energy and plan to accept apprentices. ”

Zhu Xiaomin smiled slightly: "You can rest assured of this." He was already in the middle stage of the void when he left, and with his outstanding qualifications, he had cultivated to the realm of annihilation in thirty-two years, not to mention that it was a dignified sword immortal who guided him! Tsk, even if I tell me he's about to cross the catastrophe, I'll believe it!"

"Sword Immortal's swordsmanship and body skills are absolutely superb, if Senior Brother He can also teach Xue'er and Shuang'er 'painstakingly' in the future, I will be grateful to him for a lifetime!" Qin Yuejie's eyes lit up excitedly.

"So the top priority now is to make Brother Tianyao love our daughter. He won't stay in the inn for long, and he will see the creation of those two little girls. Zhu Xiaomin said.

"I don't think so. Senior Brother He is full of love now, who makes Xue'er and Shuang'er so cute? They are the greatest masterpieces of my life!"

"Heh, look at your smug look!" Zhu Xiaomin smiled, "But don't worry, if he refuses, I still have a final plan to guarantee......" She said like this with Qin Yuejie's ear attached.

Qin Yuejie's eyes widened wider and wider, and after listening, he gave Zhu Xiaomin a thumbs up: "In the end, Mrs. is still smart! Haha, that's great, then Senior Brother He can't shirk!"

"That's a plan that has to be done in the end, I hope that Brother Tianyao will readily agree without this......," Zhu Xiaomin sighed, "Let's think about Brother Tianyao like this, I feel a little unhappy." I hope he doesn't get angry when he finds out......"

"Xue'er and Shuang'er will be a good pair of apprentices. Senior Brother He is big-hearted, and he will forgive us. Qin Yuejie hugged his wife, Zhu Xiaomin leaned on her husband's shoulder, and the two stood at the door of the inn and snuggled up to each other, looking longingly at the distance of the road together.
