The silver-haired mother-in-law learned from Lu Li's mouth that Li Yi had suddenly suffered a catastrophe and returned to chaos, and she couldn't believe it for a long time.

Lu Li wanted to comfort the silver-haired mother-in-law, but suddenly felt that someone was looking at her behind her, and she turned around sharply and saw a familiar face.

"Xiaoman?!"

Xiao Man was lowering his head and hesitating to go in, and after going in, he said something, Lu Li had already run out excitedly, "Xiao Man, oh my God, it's really you!"

Xiaoman has a complicated mood, goodbye Lu Li, as if he is in a different world.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds and hugged each other tightly.

Lu Li remembered her understanding of the demon world, and at the beginning it was all thanks to Xiao Man, and it was he who used his half-understanding to open the door to Lu Li's understanding of the demon world. For Xiaoman, Lu Li can't let it go, after all, he can be regarded as Lu Li watching "grow up".

Lu Li's smile was bright, but Xiao Man's eyes were full of tears, all these years, he had always regretted that he hid in a group of goblins on the shore of the North Underworld and expelled Lu Li from the demon world.

The children who are choosing beans look at each other, how did Brother Xiaoman, who can usually speak well, become a dumb man today?

Garlic grinned, "Brother Xiaoman was speechless when he met his beautiful sister." ”

The rest of the children also giggled, Xiao Man glared, and threatened: "Look at your open teeth, be careful that your teeth can't grow, and you won't be able to eat in the future!"

Lu Li looked at Xiao Man's appearance and had a strange feeling.

Lu Li looked back, garlic covered his mouth with both hands, the children laughed and bent over, and then laughed too, this situation is really good.

The silver-haired mother-in-law finally came back to her senses, leaned on the door and teased: "It's a matter of the future if the teeth can't grow, if the beans can't be chosen now, you won't be able to eat tonight." ”

The children continued to play and choose vegetables, and the silver-haired mother-in-law beckoned Xiaoman to come into the house, and the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they couldn't keep standing in the yard talking.

As soon as he entered the house, Xiao Man asked, "What about Mingyang? Isn't he with you?"

Lu Li smiled, and had to say again, "We have been practicing together for twenty years, and we are tired of each other, so we separated. ”

The silver-haired mother-in-law firmly thought that Lu Li and Mingyang had become a pair, and now it was just a small farewell, she said with a playful smile: "In a few days, Mingyang will come to you." ”

Lu Li didn't know what the silver-haired mother-in-law was thinking, so she just pursed her lips and pulled the corners of her mouth.

Xiao Man looked strange, because Lu Li's idiom of "looking at each other and hating each other" made Xiao Man think that the two had pierced the window paper and worked together for the rest of their lives. But he once thought that Lu Li and Mingyang would have to separate sooner or later because of their status, but he didn't expect that after so many years, they would still be together.

But it's okay like this, Lu Li has found a safe haven, and Mingyang, the person who always bullies him, is finally in charge.

The three of them recounted the old days, and Lu Li learned that Xiaoman said goodbye to himself and Mingyang, and wandered in the demon world for a few years, and then returned to the world, wanting to open another inn to live a stable life. Coincidentally, before the inn had chosen a good place, he met the spring equinox and summer solstice sisters and brothers, when the two of them were beggars in the human world, and their little hands and faces were dirty.

Xiao Man looked at them, and suddenly remembered that when he was a child, after he was turned into a goblin, because he didn't know how to practice, he couldn't protect himself at all, so he could only be enslaved. For five hundred years, if it weren't for good luck and fast running, he would have been eaten by the big demon a long time ago.

Now seeing that the spring equinox and summer solstice are the same as they were back then, and they don't know how to practice, so they can only mix in the crowd as beggars, and they have to carefully hide their goblin identity, and they are in danger of being caught and killed by Taoist priests at any time. Xiao Man really couldn't bear it, he thought that the two sisters and brothers hadn't encountered any danger now, just like when he hadn't really encountered the line of life and death for five hundred years, it was just luck. Besides, now that he has the ability, he has to help more people, just like when Lu left the secret realm without hesitation, he took himself with him.

There is really no coincidence in the world, and good intentions will definitely be rewarded. Xiao Man took the spring equinox and the summer solstice siblings with him, and on the way to find the best location to open an inn, the two siblings accidentally met Garlic, and Garlic had already practiced with the silver-haired mother-in-law at that time. In this way, Xiaoman unexpectedly found the silver-haired mother-in-law.

When the master and apprentice met, thousands of thoughts were in their hearts, Xiao Man burst into tears, and fell to his knees with a pop.

The silver-haired mother-in-law also had red eyes, slapped Xiao Man's back, and took him back to Wuling Mountain.

Wuling Mountain, the area is not large, the mountain peaks are barely tall, but the aura is not very strong. It is precisely because of this that Wuling Mountain was not established as a mansion by the Immortal Family, giving the silver-haired mother-in-law a good practice ground. Over the years, many children have come and gone, and in the end, only these five remained. After Xiaoman came here, he patrolled the mountains every day, not because he was afraid that some Taoist priests would want to practice in Jielu again, but because he was worried that people with ill intentions would be unfavorable to the children.

Under the leadership of the silver-haired mother-in-law, everyone practiced in Wuling Mountain, ignoring the Hongchen matter, and had no idea what had happened outside these years, so the silver-haired mother-in-law was shocked by Li Yi's death. Seeking Chinese

After the silver-haired mother-in-law left Shushan, she let go of her obsession with Tuyao and felt that everything should follow fate. So over the years, if the children need her own shelter, of course she will not refuse, and if the children feel that the sky is high and the sea is wide and want to go out, the silver-haired mother-in-law will not stop her. As long as life and death are conceited, there are no complaints and no regrets.

These five children, except for garlic, are all shy by nature and rarely communicate with the living, which makes Xiaoman, who is even very shy compared to Mingyang, the backbone of several people.

Xiao Man has grown a lot in the past few years, and now he looks back on the past and finds that when he was wandering around, he didn't grow much in height, and his heart didn't grow much either. If you encounter something, you will run away first, and if you can't do it, you will be a slave to others, and you will not fight back and scold you if you can't fight back. The ability to save one's life is first-class, and the ability to protect others is not.

But now, Xiaoman can not only protect others, but also make up his mind when he encounters something.

For example, a few of their goblins occupied the place of Wuling Mountain to practice, how to deal with the relationship with the surrounding mountain monarchs and passing people, how to keep the rare aura in Wuling Mountain to help the children practice, and how to continuously accumulate and absorb more spiritual energy, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the children outside of cultivation, etc., are all handled by Xiaoman.

Lu Li listened to the introduction of the silver-haired mother-in-law and looked at Xiaoman with satisfaction.

Xiao Man scratched his head, "Master, how can you praise your apprentice so much." ”

The silver-haired mother-in-law and Lu Li looked at Xiao Man with a smile, Xiao Man cultivated into a human shape again in the secret realm, with a slender figure, and he looked like a handsome boy wherever he went. But Lu Li has always had a strange feeling, feeling that Xiao Man was full of luck and picked up a high-grade leather bag on the street, and under this skin, there was still that shy and a little cold child.

It's just that today, Lu Li reunited with Xiaoman again, and his figure and demeanor all revealed the word "grow up". Now that he is fully able to control this good skin, Lu Li feels that he can no longer see him as a child.

"Xiaoman. Lu Li called softly, his thoughts were full of thoughts, and he paused for a long time before finally saying, "If Mingyang is here, how good it would be." ”

Xiaoman was stunned, the three teenagers who didn't know anything had grown up, and if they wanted to get together again, they didn't know what year and month they would have to wait.

The silver-haired mother-in-law held down Lu Li's hand on her lap and asked worriedly, "Lu Li, nothing happened to you and Mingyang, right?"

Lu Li pursed his lips and shook his head, but said with a crying voice: "No." ”

She was like this, the silver-haired mother-in-law and Xiaoman were even more worried, they already felt that it was strange that Mingyang was not by Lu Li's side. "Lu Li, if something happens, you must tell us. ”

The silver-haired mother-in-law took Lu Li's hand with one hand, and stroked her back with the other, "Mingyang, this child, there is no one to keep the door open." Although he hasn't seen him for more than 20 years, he is the son of the demon world after all, and he can't encounter any major events, and his temperament shouldn't have changed much. I know that he also has you in his heart. ”

Lu Li furrowed his eyebrows and looked at the silver-haired mother-in-law in shock, "What did you say?"

"Mingyang doesn't say anything, but in the secret realm, I see what he does to you. Back then, in order to save you, he gave up going home and carried you back to the Great Elder for help. At that time, I knew that he had you in his heart. ”

When Lu Li heard this, his heart was sour, and he cried even more sadly.

The silver-haired mother-in-law continued: "Lu Li, you have been together for so many years, there must be feelings. If Mingyang does something and provokes you, you also have to listen to what he has to say. If it's a matter of principle, I must support you, if it's some trivial things, he will be taught a lesson, don't keep sulking. ”

Lu Li knew that the silver-haired mother-in-law remembered the incident between her and Tu Yao back then, and she felt it.

"Silver-haired mother-in-law. Lu Li wiped his snot and tears, "I'm not angry with Mingyang, it's just that there is something going on at his house, and we didn't have an awkward quarrel when he went home." ”

The silver-haired mother-in-law nodded, slightly relieved, "That's good." ”

Xiao Man sat next to him, his brows furrowed, and asked cautiously, "Then what are you crying about?" ”

"I'm not crying for Mingyang. Lu Litong's eyes were red, and he said: "I just remembered that we used to look for the secret realm together, how good it was at that time." Like a fool, I don't know anything, but I'm happy every day, and I don't have so many worries. So I couldn't hold back for a while. ”

This reason persuaded Xiaoman, and the silver-haired mother-in-law didn't ask anything.

Here Lu Li reunited with the silver-haired mother-in-law and Xiaoman, and over there Mingyang finally saw the shadow of the magic capital from afar.

He was anxious, he didn't know the current situation of the demons, and he didn't know when the scene he saw would change.

Ten Thousand Demon Palace, the Demon Venerable and the Zijin King discussed that they wanted to return the marriage between Ming Qi and Ziyang to the right track, but Boiling Wing and Ling De discussed that they would mobilize the power of civil and military officials to force the palace together and marry Ziyang to the Western Regions.

Above the court, the war is about to break out.
