Chapter Forty-Seven: A Strange Flower
Ou Xuanxi smiled and said, "Actually, cultivation is really not interesting, you see me, I am seventy or eighty years old, and that's it." β
"Then what else are we going to cultivate?" Lu Yanning asked suspiciously.
"In fact, when you came back this time, Master saw that you were not suitable for cultivation, so he was going to let you quit the sect, and I will send you out of the Cave Heaven World. Ou Xuanxi stood up and made a gesture of please.
Instinctively, Lu Yanning felt that something didn't seem right, but he couldn't remember what was wrong.
followed Ou Xuanxi out of the cave world, the two waved goodbye, and they officially withdrew from the sect, and even handed back the jade jian, but they did not take back the storage ring and other things.
Lu Yanning returned to Hujie City, entrusted Qian Duoduo to sell the spirit crystals in his hands, and then used the money to start an investment business.
Soon, with his integrity, hard work, and a little luck, the business was on track, he made a lot of money, bought a big house in Hujie City, and took his parents over.
I had more contact with Qian Duoduo, and the relationship between the two became deeper and deeper, and in the face of love, Qian Duoduo chose love and gave up cultivation.
After graduating from college, Qian Duoduo and Lu Yanning got married, the two of them joined forces, and they rose and fell in the business world several times, and finally achieved great success, accumulated a lot of wealth and gained a high reputation, and both won various "Top Ten Outstanding ***".
A few years later, after Qian Duoduo gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twins for Lu Yanning, he concentrated on raising children at home, and silently became the "woman behind the success" of successful people. And the second elder also has grandchildren and grandchildren, and his life is enjoyable.
However, people have to experience birth, old age, sickness and death after all, when Lu Yanning's son and daughter reached adulthood at the age of eighteen, Lu's father and Lu's mother left their family one after another.
Lu Yanning was extremely sad, and once had the idea of abandoning the world and going to the mountains, but looking at a pair of children, looking at his beloved wife, and thinking about his thriving career, he finally didn't leave his family and run away.
After unremitting efforts, Lu Yanning established the Lu Group, involving all walks of life, and the business territory is getting bigger and bigger, so that I can't remember how many companies there are under his name.
Eighty years later, Lu Yanning sat in a wheelchair and held the hand of Qian Duoduo, who was as old as himself, and looked at the laughing great-grandson, great-granddaughter, great-grandson, and great-granddaughter in a manor, looked at the sunset, and suddenly asked: "Duoduo, do you regret giving up cultivation and working hard with me?"
"We are all in our early 100s, okay, we have accompanied you through ups and downs over the years, and now we are full of children and grandchildren, our Lu Group is already the largest company in the country, what else am I not satisfied with?" Qian Duoduo tightened his hands and said happily: "The most important thing is that I don't regret having you with me!"
Lu Yanning sighed: "But I regret it!"
Qian Duoduo glanced at Lu Yanning, and said coquettishly: "You bad old man, did you annoy me, this old woman? Who did you think about back then? I was also a big beauty back then!"
Lu Yanning pulled Qian Duoduo in front of him, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and sighed: "It's not that I'm annoyed with you, nor do I regret being with you, but I regret giving up cultivation back then." β
"Isn't it nice to be like this now?" Qian Duoduo smiled softly.
"It's very good!" Lu Yanning responded: "But it's not enough, I still have a lot of things I haven't done, there are still many people I haven't seen, and there are still a lot of scenery I haven't seen!"
"But I don't have time for any more of these things. Lu Yanning raised his old hand, touched his leg, and his voice gradually lowered, "I have created such a big business empire, but what does it have to do with me now? I can't do what I want to do anymore, I can't see the people I want to see anymore, and I can't see the scenery I want to see anymore......
Lu Yanning gently closed his eyes, tilted his head, and sank into eternal darkness. With all kinds of regrets that I "wanted" but couldn't do it, I just died.
...... (The whole book is overββ uh, just kidding, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death when it's over.) οΌ

"Hey, wake up! Come back to your senses!" Lu Yanning's misty eyes gradually gathered with the second senior brother's shout.
At this time, Lu Yanning was sitting in the courtyard of the second senior brother Ou Xuanxi, and he also held a teacup in his hand.
"I ...... Second Senior Brother, what's going on?Am I not dead?" Lu Yanning was confused.
"Haha, I have to talk about the strange flowers I planted!" Ou Xuanxi smiled proudly: "Do you think the flowers I grow in this yard are just beautiful? In fact, they are all kinds of strange flowers and plants with special functions." β
Lu Yanning: "......"
Boss, you have to wait for me to ask?
Fortunately, Ou Xuanxi just paused, did not sell the guanzi, and continued: "Actually, after you came back, the master found that something was wrong with you, the cultivation progress was too fast, the lack of tempering, the heart was not enough, and the cultivation and life began to be confused, if you continue to continue, you should ask why people are alive." β
"That's because you haven't really condensed your Dao heart! So, Master called me over and asked me to give you a Flower of the First Generation. β
Lu Yanning was puzzled: "What is it?"
"The First Flower is a strange flower that your senior brother found when he went out, there are only three in total, and two were used before, but now, it's gone!" Ou Xuanxi felt a pity.
Lu Yanning: "And then?"
Ou Xuanxi said as a matter of course: "Then when you come in, I will make the last flower of the first life into tea for you to drink, and then you will have hallucinations and live your life!" β
Seeing that Lu Yanning was still a little confused, Ou Xuanxi said: "I've always heard the story of Huang Liang's dream, right? It's a pity that a flower can only bloom once, and it will die after being picked, so where will I find it in the future? β
Lu Yanning finally understood, stood up, saluted Ou Xuanxi, and said, "Thank you, Second Senior Brother!
Ou Xuanxi waved his hand with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay, but the junior brother is still confused, isn't he?"
"After living a lifetime, I seem to have figured it out, and when I see it through, I don't seem to understand it very well. In front of his senior brother, Lu Yanning had nothing to hide, what to say.
Ou Xuanxi nodded and said, "This is normal, although borrowing a lifetime flower allows you to live a life in the illusion, but after all, it is not a real experience, although it is very real." In addition, you have just woken up, and reality and fantasy are somewhat incompatible. I won't stay and continue to drink tea, you go back and meditate for a while, take care of it, and you will definitely get something!"
"Okay, thank you, brother!"
