Chapter 22: Xue Yan's Bloody Wash in Lixiang Town (1)
After Princess Shanruo's soul was taken to the Demon Realm, Mei'er saw her for the first and only time.
But before Princess Shanruo and Mei'er could communicate, Princess Shanruo's soul was beaten into Mei'er's body by the Demon Emperor.
"Demon Emperor!" When Princess Shanruo's soul entered her body, Mei'er looked at the Demon Emperor in disbelief.
The Demon Emperor had nothing to hide from her, and told her directly, "That's right, she is your earth soul." ”
Everyone is born with three souls and seven spirits. There are three souls: one is the heavenly soul, which enters the reincarnation after death, the second is the earth soul, and the earth soul wanders in the cemetery after death, and the third is the soul, which enters the ancestral hall tablet after death and wanders the world. There are seven spirits, one spirit is the sky, two is the wisdom, three is the qi, four is the force, five is the center, six is the essence, and the seven is the Ying.
It turned out that Mei'er only had the heavenly soul and the seven spirits in her body, because she was born with a fairy fetus, although her soul was incomplete, she was not as stupid as ordinary people, but it also made her a waste of wood and could not practice.
"So I'll be able to practice spells in the future?" Mei'er asked with mixed feelings.
"Yes!" As she spoke, the Demon Emperor threw her a spell book called "Heavenly Palace Treasure Book", "Let's practice like this!"
"Thank you Demon Emperor!" Mei'er thanked her, and after sending the Demon Emperor away, she sat down directly on the ground. Because she felt it all the life of Princess Shanruo, she suddenly wanted to cry. But she doesn't have the capital to cry now, she has to become stronger, only when she is strong, can she get out of the demon world, and she can go to Xu Fei.
After figuring out the key, Mei'er began to turn her grief and anger into motivation, picked up the spell book, and began to look at it seriously.
In Langyuan Wonderland, after Chu Xiyin cried, she was dropped asleep by Chu Mingxin and hugged to her bedroom for placement. The brothers were frightened by her, and they didn't dare to practice and kept looking at her, and Xia Qingning was staring at her in the dark, and the little phoenix was guarding. It wasn't until the next day that she woke up, and all the discomfort suddenly disappeared.
"You're awake, Xiao Jiu!" Chu Ming was the first to notice that she was awake, and poured a glass of water for her, "Come and drink water!"
Chu Xiyin drank all the water in the cup with his hand, Chu Mingxin was woken up, sat up from the side of the bed, grabbed Chu Xiyin and interrogated nervously: "Xiao Jiu, is it still uncomfortable? He could no longer bear the pain of life and death. If it was before, he would have laughed at his sister, but now when his sister is the slightest disturbant, he will get nervous.
"The feeling of the sixth brother is gone, I don't know why, I suddenly want to cry!" Chu Xiyin's head rested on Chu Mingxin's neck, and he felt very aggrieved inexplicably.
What she didn't know was that the one who was wronged was Princess Shanruo, and the one who wanted to cry was also Princess Shanruo.
"If you want to cry, cry, the sixth brother is here!" Chu Mingxin patted his sister's back and coaxed her like a child.
Seeing her big tears rolling down, Xia Qingning's heart was inexplicably blocked, but he couldn't do anything now, and he couldn't do it. He guessed: It must have been something wrong with that soul, otherwise Chu Xiyin would not be so abnormal.
Lixiang Town.
This town is full of pear trees, at this time it is the season when the pear blossoms bloom all over the mountains, the white pear blossoms of a tree are like snow picturesque, the fragrance is bursting, attracting bees and butterflies, and the whole town is like a fairyland.
Xue Yan wore a black robe and entered a tavern with a hat. Five years have passed, but his body shape, eyebrows and eyes are still the same, and the scars on his face are still the same, but his temperament has changed drastically. The well-informed bartender, who was cold and murderous all over, did not dare to step forward, and only asked him from a distance of two or three meters: "Guest officer, what do you want?"
Xue Yan took out the carefully preserved money bag, took out a silver ingot and threw it to him, "Pick up the vegetables, half a catty of soju!" Then he put the money bag away closely, and glanced around at this place that was both familiar and unfamiliar, and brought him endless pain.
"Okay!" the bartender took the money and ran to the kitchen happily, "Half a catty of soju, roast chicken, beef, and pork ribs!"
The corners of Xue Yan's lips curled, revealing a bloodthirsty smile, he came back, full of hatred. If you ask him why he has such a deep hatred, it starts from seven years ago.
At that time, Xue Yan was a happy seventeen-year-old boy, in addition to practicing the exercises taught to him by his mother every day, he went up the mountain to hunt, and occasionally took some prey down the mountain to sell in exchange for some daily necessities, and the life of the mother and son was simple and happy.
His mother's name is Mu Qingyan, taken from "The moon is bright under the moon in the cold pool, and the song by the new moon pool, if it is not Ma Qingyan, but it becomes a candle!" She was born in a declining family of Xiuxian, and it is said that the family was also famous before. But because of the melee between gods and demons more than a hundred years ago, he suffered heavy losses. When Mu Qingyan was ten years old, only Mu Qingyan's father and daughter were left in the family. In the end, it is a woman from everyone's background, although she is down, she moved to the south mountain of Lixiang Town, but lavender is planted all around her home, and every summer comes, her house is surrounded by purple all over the mountains.
"Niang ......" Xue Yan carried a bamboo basket on his back and climbed up to a thatched hut located halfway up the mountainside, which was full of things he had just bought and exchanged from the town's market.
Hearing the shout, a woman in her thirties walked out of the hut, and she knew that she must have been a beauty when she was young. "You're back!" she was dressed in a purple washed half-worn shirt, smiled softly, and her hands were full of flour, but she still wanted to help her son put down the bamboo basket first.
"Mother, no, I'll come!" Xue Yan neatly put the bamboo basket on the ground, and couldn't wait to take the wrapped clothes to her, "This is what my son bought for you from the garment store, you try to see if it fits!"
Mu Qingyan rubbed the flour on her apron, took the burden and counted it for a while, "Why are you spending this money on this kid? My mother is so old, you just take care of yourself!"
"My son has enough clothes! This is my son's filial piety to you!" he said, carrying the bamboo basket and walking inside.
The thatched hut is not big, there are four rooms in total, a kitchen, a study, and the other two are bedrooms, and the mother and son have one room, which is simple, clean and tidy.
Mu Qingyan took the new clothes and gestured on her body, with a happy smile on her face, and then entered the hut, folded the clothes and put them on the bed, and walked to the kitchen. "Mother will give you steamed buns to eat!"
Xue Yan took out an oil-paper bag, took another board out, and then opened the oil-paper bag, which turned out to be a sauce-flavored elbow. He cut two pieces and gave them to Mu Qingyan first, "Mother, are you good at tasting this?"
"You kid, we spend so much money, but it's not a long time?" complained on his lips, but he was happy to eat the elbow sent by his son.
Xue Yan looked at his mother like a child, "Mother, is it delicious?" and waited for her mother's praise.
"It's delicious!" It wasn't until he heard the affirmative answer that Xue Yan happily turned around and continued to cut his elbow, sending a piece to his mouth while cutting, and continued to boast, "I will definitely hunt more wild boars or something in the future, so that I can go to the mountain market to exchange money, buy a lot of beautiful clothes for my mother, and buy a lot of delicious things for my mother!"
Hearing her son say this, Mu Qingyan's heart was as sweet as eating honey. The movements of his hands kept moving, and one by one the fat wild vegetable buns were put into the pot, covered the pot, and squatted down to add firewood to the stove.
Xue Yan cut his elbow and wanted to come over to help, "Mother, I'll burn the fire, you rest!"
"You've been tired for a long time, take a break, mother is not tired!" Mu Qingyan pushed her son out of the kitchen, Xue Yan smiled helplessly, "Mother, I'm not tired, I'll stay with you for a while!"
Mu Qingyan smiled all over her face, "Okay, we're not tired, let's take the dishes and chopsticks out, and we'll have dinner in a while!"
"Alas!" Xue Yan turned around and walked to the bamboo cupboard, neatly packed up the dishes and chopsticks and brought them to the dining table, and then took the cut sauce elbow and set it up. He watched his mother busy, with a smile on his lips, and told his mother what he had seen in the market, and the hare outside looked at him from time to time with bursts of laughter.
But happy days are always short-lived, and suddenly one day a man came to the door, the man was wearing a satin robe and a jade crown, rich and powerful, how to look at how they don't look like people in the mountains and wilderness can climb high.
When Mu Qingyan saw that person, the dustpan of dried mushrooms in her hand took off immediately, and her face turned white.
As Mu Qingyan expected, that person really came to pick up Xue Yan and leave, that person was Xue Yan's biological father, and now the only son-in-law of the Su family, the only immortal cultivator in Lixiang Town, Xue Chengmei.
When Xue Yan knew that this person was his biological father, the whole person was stupid, "You...... Are you my father?" he only felt his head buzzing, and his heart was galloping.
Xue Chengmei was also very excited when she saw this handsome son, and took her son into her arms. "Son...... Xue Yan...... I'm your father!"
All this came too suddenly, and suddenly Xue Yan didn't have time to think, why did his father ignore their mother and son for seventeen years, but now he came to the door?!
Mu Qingyan wiped her tears and looked at this scene speechlessly, she knew that Xue Chengmei's coming to pick up her son was already the greatest affection for her, and she didn't dare to have any other extravagance and hope.
Things were as Mu Qingyan expected, that person was here to pick up Xue Yan. "You allow me to go and talk to my father-in-law and mother-in-law again, it's important to take Yan'er back now, and ...... later" He didn't dare to look at Mu Qingyan's eyes, for fear that he would show his timidity, but he had already shown his timidity. After all, it was he who reneged on the marriage alliance to marry her, and it was he who abandoned his wife and children first. He may be a tall immortal monarch in front of others, but in front of Mu Qingyan, he is unconsciously three points shorter.
"No, if my mother doesn't leave, I won't leave!" Xue Yan had never left his mother since he was a child, and he didn't want to leave his mother alone to live on this deserted South Mountain.
Xue Chengmei felt that the child was ignorant and wanted to scold, but she couldn't speak anyway, "You ......"
He's empty-hearted!
He knew better than anyone why he came to pick up Xue Yan back!
"Yan'er, listen to your father, he took you back for the sake of your future. The simple Mu Qingyan still feels that Xue Chengmei has a little conscience, and persuades Xue Yan for him, "He hasn't seen you for many years, he misses you very much!"
