Chapter 69: When to forget
Li Xuandu looked at Li Feiyan's back, his lips moved slightly, and he just wanted to speak.
Then I saw Li Feiyan casually inserting "Qingyun" into the ground, and instantly came to Li Xuandu's face.
The two looked at each other, and Li Xuan squeezed out a stiff smile.
Li Feiyan stretched out his hands, pinched Li Xuandu's cheeks, and dragged him fiercely: "Xiao Zifu, have you forgotten your aunt?"
When Li Daoxu named Li Xuandu, he didn't wait until he became an adult to take the table words, but took the name and the words together, so Li Feiyan still remembered Li Xuandu's table words.
Li Xuan didn't dare to resist, and said helplessly: "Where is this talking about Senior Aunt, how could I forget Senior Aunt." β
Li Feiyan didn't believe it at all, he didn't mean to let go at all, he dragged it out, and pulled Li Xuandu's mouth apart in an arc similar to a crescent moon: "You haven't forgotten? If you haven't forgotten, you don't know how to take the initiative to say hello to your elders? That's how Li Daoxu taught you the rules? Didn't he claim to be the most important rule?"
Li Xuandu could only tell the truth: "After all, I haven't seen my aunt for many years, and I didn't dare to identify it for a while, so my aunt forgives my sins." β
Li Feiyan let go of Li Xuandu's cheek, patted it gently, and couldn't help rubbing it, shaking his head and sighing: "It's not as fun as when I was a child." β
Fortunately, there was no one at this time, otherwise Li Xuan would have been completely faceless.
Li Xuan has an impression of this aunt, but because of the long time, his impression of this aunt is a little vague. When Li Xuandu was just brought back to Qingweizong by Li Daoxu, because of Li Qingyun's death, Li Feiyan had completely broken with Li Daoxu, but probably because of the woman's nature, she didn't hate Li Xuandu, who was still a child at the time, and later Zhang Haishi gradually became powerful and caused Li Daoxu's jealousy, so the relationship between Li Feiyan and Zhang Haishi was not bad, and he would also help take care of Li Xuandu, who was still young.
It's just that in Li Xuandu's memory, it can't be called taking care at all, it's obviously teasing, just touch your head and pinch your little face when you're fine, in short, it's the way women tease children. Now that Li Xuandu thinks about it, he has different feelings, perhaps because of the discordant relationship between Li Feiyan and Li Rushi, and he has never had an heir, which is not a pity.
Later, Li Feiyan disappeared, Li Xuandu was still young at the time, and he didn't think deeply, when he grew up, his impression of Li Feiyan was already very thin, knowing that the master didn't like this aunt, he didn't ask, but asked the second senior brother Zhang Haishi in private, but Zhang Haishi asked him not to worry about it, so Li Xuandu gradually forgot about this aunt, only when she was also like the senior brother Situ Xuance, she accidentally drowned in the rivers and lakes.
Because of this, Li Xuandu never expected that Li Feiyan was still alive in the world, so the first time Li Feiyan appeared, he just felt that his face was familiar, but he didn't think about his own aunt.
Li Xuandu asked softly, "Where has Senior Aunt been all these years?"
Li Feiyan pointed to "Qingyun" and asked, "Do you recognize it?"
Li Xuandu nodded: "I recognize, the 'Qingyun' sword of the Zhengyi Sect, I have used it once." Could it be that my aunt was ......?"
Li Feiyan snorted lightly: "Back then, I was captured by Zhang Jingxiu, and Zhang Lao'er didn't kill me, but just imprisoned me on the demon suppression platform of Zhengyizong, and this time he let me out because he wanted me to help you solve the trouble." β
When Li Xuandu heard this, he couldn't help but say a little gloomy: "Then the master ...... him"
Li Feiyan sneered: "Isn't this exactly what he wants?"
Li Xuandu sighed lightly, knowing that Li Feiyan was telling the truth, and he didn't refute it.
Li Feiyan stretched out his hand, and "Qingyun" flew into her hand: "In exchange, in addition to returning my freedom, Zhang Lao'er also agreed to lend me this 'Qingyun' temporarily, with it, I can't find trouble with Li Daoxu, and it will not be a problem to find trouble with Daoist Li." β
Li Feiyan obeyed his father's wishes and married Li Daoshi, different from his sister Li Qingyun, who has a weaker personality, Li Feiyan's personality is strong, and Li Ruyan is far inferior to Li Daoxu, and his realm cultivation is even inferior to Li Feiyan, so Li Feiyan looks down on her husband who only has a good skin, and strictly restricts Li Rushi on weekdays, making Li Rushi a person who is known to everyone in the whole sect.
Li Xuandu coughed lightly: "Senior Aunt, Senior Uncle Li is no longer called Daoist Li now, but has changed his name to Li Rushi." β
Li Feiyan was stunned: "Li Rushi, isn't this a generation shorter?"
Li Xuandu roughly explained the reason for Li Rushi's name change.
After Li Feiyan heard this, he was furious: "I already knew that he was a soft bone, but I didn't expect that he had no bones at all! The name was given by the master, can he change it at will? I don't want to be in such a situation, when I return to the Qingwei Sect, I have to let him kneel for three days and three nights!"
Although Li Xuandu and Li Rushi were at odds, when he heard this, he still felt a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox as a man. Li Rushi is certainly not a good person, but he completely fell to his senior brother Li Daoxu, instead of standing with his wife, in addition to the general trend, I am afraid that he has had enough of this kind of fear of guilt. In this world, no one looks down on a man without dignity, and Li Rushi would rather surrender to another powerful man than prostrate at the feet of his wife, which is the reason. And listening to Li Feiyan's tone, it is not the first time that Li Rushi has been punished for kneeling, in all fairness, it is absolutely unbearable to change to Li Xuandu. So it's better to be his Miss Qin, not Li Feiyan's strong character.
However, Li Xuan didn't dare to put these words into words, the two hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, if he hadn't seen Li Feiyan again, Li Xuan wouldn't even be able to recall Li Feiyan's appearance, the two were not familiar with each other anyway, and it was taboo on the rivers and lakes to talk about each other.
Li Feiyan naturally felt Li Xuandu's alienation, was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said, "That little purple mansion has grown up back then, do you think I will harm you?"
Li Xuandu shook his head and said: "Of course not, if it weren't for my aunt's action, I would have been more than lucky." It's just that I have walked the rivers and lakes over the years and developed a habit, and I hope my aunt will forgive me. β
Li Feiyan sighed lightly: "I have been trapped on the Demon Suppression Platform for many years, and the Demon Suppression Platform is a forbidden place, and idlers are not allowed to enter." Over the years, except for Zhang Jingxiu and a teenager named Zhang Feishan, I have hardly seen anyone else, so many years, looking at the same mountain scenery, I have long been numb, all kinds of the past, vividly, it is still yesterday, now it seems that it is not after all. β
Li Xuandu remembered something and couldn't help asking, "How did Senior Aunt recognize me?"
Li Feiyan glanced at him deeply: "Although you have grown up, there is still a shadow of you when you were a child." As long as you remember, you can recognize it, not only you, even if the ice goose is here, I can recognize it, but you can't remember me anymore, so I will ask you if you have forgotten my aunt. β
Li Xuan was speechless.
Li Feiyan was a little gloomy, without the high-spirited attitude of facing the enemy just now and the spirit of just getting out of trouble, because she found that everything around her had changed, her husband had changed his surname because of his wealth, and now even his name had changed. Li Xuandu is like this, and Lu Yanbing will not be much better.
She seems to have been left behind more than ten years ago.
Li Xuandu saw Li Feiyan's sad appearance, his thoughts fluctuated, and many forgotten memories poured out from the depths of his mind: this senior aunt once took him and Lu Yanbing out to sea on a whale and drifted for 800 miles; she once took the two of them to some deserted islands, caught some sea fish by the way, and grilled fish on the beach; she also took them to her home, and Li Xuandu remembered that there was a self-striking bell in her home; even in these memories, Li Yuanying's figure appeared from time to time, far from being as old and dead as he was laterγ
These trivial memories have only faded away with time. Looking back at this time, Li Xuandu suddenly realized that when he was a teenager, although he had no parents, he had so many elders, he and Lu Yanbing used to be so harmonious, and even he and Li Yuanying had a sincere smile.
So, when did they forget about it?
Why did the little girl who used to obediently follow Li Xuandu become the grass on the wall now? Why did the boy who followed Li Yuanying look at each other like enemies with Li Yuanying?
Li Xuandu couldn't help but ask himself.
Those brothers and sisters, elders and juniors who thought they would always love each other, why did they become like this?
Is it because of the struggle for power later, or is it just because you have grown up?
