Chapter 54: Cutting Off the Mortal Dust (Three Watches)
"Uncle and aunt, the little nephew is back!"
Ten miles outside Taiyue City, in front of the dilapidated thatched hut, Fang Yuan arrived in front of his uncle and aunt's chaimen, and said in a low voice.
The ancestors of the Fang family were also a big family, but later declined, and the ancestral field was also taken away by the Qi family, so naturally it was gradually declining, and since Fang Yuan remembered, their family had already settled outside the city. His own memory of growing up is that in this small firewood house, life was not good, although his uncle and aunt did not starve him to death, but they were not very devoted to him. In a farmer's family, it is a burden to eat with one more person, not to mention that Fang Yuan has a high spirit, and since he was five years old, he has been studying with Mr. Zhu of the Fairy Hall, and he has very little time to go into the farmland to cultivate, until Fang Yuan showed his talents among the children in the Fairy Hall, his uncles and aunts beat and scolded him!
If it weren't for Mr. Zhu's high morality in the Fairy Hall, he took a fancy to Fang Yuan's intelligence and diligence, and couldn't bear to see him fall into the farmland for a lifetime, and forcibly left Fang Yuan in the Fairy Hall to study, then Fang Yuan would have been dragged into the field by his uncle and aunt to work!
Of course, it took ten years to read this book, but the Fang family never gave Mr. Zhu the slightest restraint, which is also a strange thing.
It is for this reason that Fang Yuan does not have deep feelings for this family that he grew up in.
However, it is one thing to have deep feelings, and it is another thing whether some things should be done, after all, he was raised by his uncle and aunt, and this kindness must be returned, he usually practices in the mountains, and does not often think of this family, but now that he is back, of course, he must do what he should do, and the two hundred taels of gold exchanged for spirit stones are to break this kindness......
"Squeak......
As soon as Fang Yuan opened his mouth, the chai door was opened, and the people inside seemed to be waiting for him to come back.
"Oops...... You...... You're back......"
Auntie's rough and withered yellow face appeared behind the door, looking at Fang Yuan with restraint and nervousness.
Fang Yuan knew that he had returned to Taiyue City, and there must have been someone who had good things to do and told his uncle and aunt in advance, and when he saw her expression, he also understood why she was so nervous, and he was probably not sure whether he would come back to take revenge or repay his kindness.
"Well, I came back to kill demons on the order of Xianmen, and by the way, I came to the house to take a look!"
Fang Yuan nodded and entered the door.
The house is very dark, in order to save lamp oil, the farmer will not light up at night if there is nothing to do, but Fang Yuan is now a sixth-level cultivator, and has practiced the magic eye technique in low-level spells, and his eyesight is far beyond ordinary people, but he can see clearly, the thatched hut is still cramped and narrow like before, the room smells of herbs, and a black loach-like half-sized child on the ground is squatting under the table to look at him secretly, and on the bed, his uncle's face is like gold paper, his mouth and tongue are foaming, and his eyes are half dead......
"What's wrong with uncle?"
Fang Yuan only glanced at it, then turned his head to ask his aunt.
"Alas, he is sick, angry and sick, and he has no money to treat him, and he is getting worse and worse......"
As soon as the aunt opened her mouth, she cried and shouted with some complaints: " Our family is poor, your uncle used to go up the mountain to hunt some game, dig some herbs to exchange money, but I didn't expect that the Zhou family's medicinal herb shop does not accept our family's herbs, the mountains are demonic, he is timid, dare not go up the mountain to hunt again, this day is even more unbearable, some time ago, I heard that you offended the young master of the Zhou family, scared him for a few days and did not dare to go out, this is not the root of the disease, seeing more and more serious, I had to go to the Zhou family's pharmacy to kowtow, then I asked for some medicine, the result was boiled for him, after a few days, I did not see it well......”
"The medicine is not right!"
Fang Yuan was silent for a long time, nodded, slowly walked to his uncle's bedside, gently raised his hand to the center of his eyebrows, and a mana crossed in, his uncle's body trembled violently, he suddenly sat up, vomited a few times, and the smell was tangy, but his spirit improved significantly, and he raised his head weakly, and only at this time did he stammered and spoke to Fang Yuan: "Yuan'er, you ......"
"I've used mana to dissolve the evil qi in your heart, let's eat this elixir again!"
Fang Yuan took out a Qi Cultivation Pill and wanted to feed it to his uncle, but he felt that with his current weakness, he was afraid that he would be weak, so he called his aunt over and told him: "Soak this pill in water every day and feed it to your uncle until the pill is finished!"
"I want to eat, I want to eat the elixir, and I want to be a fairy!"
An unreasonable shout sounded next to him, and the mud monkey hiding under the table, that is, the son of his uncle and aunt, jumped up violently, and raised his hand to grab this elixir, Fang Yuan let him grab his wrist, but it was like steel, the mud monkey used all his strength, and he couldn't make his wrist tremble, so he was so anxious that he actually opened his mouth to bite Fang Yuan's hand.
Fang Yuan's palm trembled slightly, shaking him to the ground, the mud monkey wanted to rush up again, but was looked at by Fang Yuan's gaze, and was scared softly, just sat on the ground and hugged his aunt's leg and cried: "I also want to eat the elixir, I also want to eat the elixir, why can he be an immortal, you said that he is a cheap seed, he eats white rice, and a cheap seed can be a fairy, then I will also be an immortal......
"You...... What nonsense are you talking about?"
The aunt was so frightened that she launched a slap in the face of her precious son.
After the fight, he trembled with fright, hugged his son, and looked at Fang Yuan with begging, for fear that he would be angry.
Fang Yuan didn't intend to be angry, he had suffered a lot of scolding since he was a child, and he couldn't stand it with the change of identity, so he just couldn't hear it, put the two hundred taels of gold he had exchanged for from the storage bag on the table, and said lightly: "Let's live a good life in the future, I brought this gold back to you, as for the Fang family's property, I will go to the Qi family to ask for it back, but you can be guaranteed to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and no one will dare to be disrespectful to the other family, this can be regarded as me returning your kindness!"
"Oops......"
When the aunt saw the gold on the table, she was startled at first, and spun on it, hugging and trembling.
The mud monkey jumped up on the ground, hugging the table: "Mine, it's all mine......"
Even the uncle on the bed sat up straight, his eyes just looking at the dazzling gold.
"I still have something to do, let's go first!"
Looking at the appearance of this family, Fang Yuan was silent for a moment, then turned around and walked out.
Behind it, there was just the voice of the family cheering, but there was no sound of retention.
His mind finally faded!
How do uncles and aunts know that in the eyes of immortal cultivators, a few hundred taels of gold is nothing, and what is a mere piece of land?
As long as his cultivation is higher day by day, it will not be a problem for the Fang family to become a great family that has been passed down for hundreds of years in this Taiyue City, or even a cultivation family, but their family is still so short-sighted, at this time, if they will open their mouths to leave Fang Yuan to have a meal at home, Fang Yuan will also recognize this family, but they still don't, since this is the case, Fang Yuan's dust fate is really cut off.
When he got out, he looked at the drooping night, sighed, and walked towards the fairy hall.
If you really talk about it, this is his home, and Mr. Zhu can be regarded as his relative, but unfortunately, the fairy hall has been closed, and Mr. Zhu has returned to his homeland in Tiannan, but now it is impossible to see his old man from here......
Looking at the pitch-black fairy hall, Fang Yuan felt a little emotional.
But at this moment, his heart suddenly moved slightly, he felt something, and turned his head to look east.
At this time, in the eastern sky, a black and oppressive dark cloud suddenly appeared, and the demonic air swirled, hanging upside down between heaven and earth.
"There are demons wreaking havoc ......"
He frowned, and his heart was slightly shocked: "I have seen a description of the demon qi on the ancient scrolls of the Xianmen, it seems that this demon qi is not the same as the news we got before, the fairy gate only said that the monsters here are the beasts in the mountains into demons, but when the monsters are in chaos, the demon qi is clearer and more uncertain, but the demon qi in the mountains is condensed but not dispersed, hanging upside down in the sky, which has the meaning of ghosts howling and crying, not like demons, but like demons, there may be deception in it, I have to remind them to ......"
Without thinking about it anymore, he turned around and hurried to Taiyue City.
At this time, Qi Xiaofeng and the others, who were attending the banquet in the City Lord's Mansion, were also taken aback when they heard the urgent report that there was a demon raging, and after thinking about it for a few breaths, Qi Xiaofeng slapped the table, stood up, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't panic, since I am waiting for the disciples of the Immortal Sect to come, the demons are causing chaos but they are seeking their own death, and please find someone to guide the way, I will go over and kill it when I wait for this!"
"Senior Brother Qi said well, slaying demons and destroying demons is exactly within my generation!"
Among the other Xianmen disciples, Wu Qing, Hong Tao and others also echoed their mouths, full of pride.
"Don't be in a hurry, how can it be such a coincidence that the demon is messing around?"
Senior Sister Xiao Qiao couldn't help but stand up, frowned, and said in a deep voice.
"Senior Sister Xiao Qiao, the demon injured all the people of my Taiyue City, if we delay a minute, one person will die!"
Qi Xiaofeng frowned and looked at Xiao Qiao coldly.
When Senior Sister Xiao Qiao heard this, she didn't know what to say for a while, the other party put on a righteous oppression, how could she speak, so she had to sigh and said, "Then you have to be careful, quickly invite someone out and call Senior Brother Fang Yuan back......"
"Where did he go?"
Qi Xiaofeng couldn't help frowning, and suddenly his mind changed, and he secretly thought: "Why should I really wait for him? That guy was originally here to mix merit, and there are the rules of the Xianmen in front of him, so I can't say anything about him, but now that he has left by himself, he can't catch up with the big event of killing demons and demons, no wonder I wait, if he doesn't come forward, we will kill the demon who made trouble, and when he goes back to Xianmen, I'm afraid he won't be able to get half of his merit, maybe he will be punished and driven down the mountain in advance!"
Thinking of this, he said coldly: "Killing demons and eliminating demons, saving people is like fighting fire, how can there be time to delay, brothers, let's go to the Dharma Boat and rush over, and when that side turns out, let him grab a fast horse to find us, let's go!"
When the others heard this, they understood what he meant, and they were excited, and shouted, "Let's go!"
And Xiao Qiao's senior sister looked anxious, but at this time, she didn't know what to do for a while.
