After the first snow in Luoyang City, it is natural that the New Year will end soon, and Li Fuyao, who has not celebrated the New Year for many years, will naturally not leave before this.

Li's father and mother are not young, and they don't know when they will be able to return here when they leave Luoyang City this time, so they stay patiently for a while.

In fact, staying in a certain place for a few more days is not a difficult thing, at least for Li Fuyao, that's it.

Where to practice is not practice?

Besides, before entering the building, Li Fuyao also needed to spend more time but practice steadily.

So he stayed in the Li Mansion.

In the days that followed, Luoyang City snowed non-stop, and it was the biggest snow in recent years.

Li Fuyao went to the palace once during this period, and had a conversation with Emperor Yanling for half an hour, and now the Emperor Yanling, who is already gray, has passed the peak age of the Spring and Autumn Period, and I am afraid that it will not be long before he will leave the world like the old lady.

The succession to the throne has already belonged, Li Fuyao didn't ask much, but just talked to Emperor Yanling about the first time they met that year.

"To be honest, when we met for the first time, I never thought that you would one day become a swordsman who climbed the tower, and I thought that as long as you were a morning and twilight swordsman, it would be very useful to me and Luoyang City. ”

Emperor Yanling was already old, and looking at Li Fuyao, his eyes were full of memories.

Yes, there are some things that no one can imagine, just like Emperor Yanling never imagined that one day he would see two Canghai in Luoyang City.

Up and down the mountain, if you really want to have a peaceful day, it can only be when the strength of both sides is about the same.

Li Fu shook his head, "Your Majesty's idea is actually very good, but if you want to promote it to the entire mountain and river in the future, you will have to face the entire mountain monks, but I am afraid that the swordsmen will be involved, in fact, it will be very difficult." ”

Emperor Yanling nodded and smiled: "Take care of Yanling first, as for what will happen to the whole world, you have to decide, in fact, the monks on the mountain are like you and Mr. Changgu, in fact, it is not a big deal." ”

Li Fuyao didn't say more, "Your Majesty has a good journey, and I am still from Yanling." ”

He didn't know if Emperor Yanling would still be alive the next time he returned to Yanling, so he said this sentence first.

According to his realm, this sentence is not disrespectful.

Emperor Yanling waved his hand and scolded with a smile: "I have to live for more than a hundred years, where do you say that you will die." ”

Li Fuyao smiled silently and left.

Leaving the imperial study, he was still walking in the heavy snow, and he was still the familiar eunuch holding an umbrella, but it had been many years, and the eunuch had already grown some gray hair.

Li Fuyao put a pill in the palm of his hand and said indifferently: "You are also half an old man." ”

The latter thanked him sincerely and carefully put away the pill in his hand.

When traveling with people like Ye Shengge, all the people I see are monks, so naturally I don't have any sighs about time, but when I return to Luoyang City, I see a group of mortals, so I will naturally feel a little touched.

Walking to the palace gate, the little girl Cheng Du has been waiting here for a long time, since the old lady's funeral was completed, the little girl has moved to the Li Mansion, saying that it was difficult to see her uncle once, and she wanted to stay with him for a few more days, Cheng Yusheng did not express an opinion on this, many people in the Cheng Mansion were a little worried about whether the little girl would make Li Fuyao unhappy, so it affected the relationship between the two families, but later Li's father picked up the little girl from the door, and no one said anything more.

Li Fuyao held up the umbrella, took the little girl's hand and walked in the snow, and asked indifferently: "What about your mother, why haven't you come back?"

Speaking of her mother, the little girl Cheng Du frowned, "I have already written to my mother before, telling her uncle that you are back, but my mother said that the mountain demons over there are haunting, and I really can't get out of it for a while." ”

After the Yanling Dynasty did not have the monks of the Academy, in those mountains and forests in the north, they could only be cleared by their own monks to clear the mountain demons, Li Xiaoxue's realm was not low, and he was a swordsman, who was the person in charge this time.

Li Fuyao nodded, in fact, the matter of cultivation is not very clear, some need to retreat day after day, and some need to fight one battle after another.

It's all different.

Li Xiaoxue's kendo talent is much higher than Li Fuyao's, and it coincides with this great world. Chao Qingqiu returned the entire kendo luck to the world, which was the most beneficial time for the swordsmen.

Li Xiaoxue should be able to move forward better in this world.

The two of them walked towards Li's mansion, Cheng Du bit her lip, as if she had something to say, did she take a look at Li Fuyao, as if she wanted to know something to Li Fuyao.

Li Fuyao glanced at Cheng Dui, but did not speak, the two of them walked a long way, and Cheng Dui called out to his uncle in a low voice.

"What do you want to say?" Li Fuyao has always treated his little niece with a pleasant face.

Cheng Du pinched the corners of his clothes, and then asked, "Uncle, if I don't practice, will I really have to leave the world before my father and mother?"

Li Fuyao didn't expect Cheng Du to ask this, he looked at the little girl and said: "You have also seen the soul of the old lady, if you don't practice, you will be like this in a hundred years, but you don't have to worry, there is such a day, my uncle will watch you reincarnate, and he will not let you have problems." ”

A hundred years later, maybe Li Fuyao will be a sword immortal in the sea, looking at the soul of a mortal, naturally there will be no problems.

Cheng Du sighed and wanted to thank her, but she felt that something was wrong, she seemed to be a little depressed.

Li Fuyao said: "Cultivation has the advantages of cultivation, and naturally there are disadvantages, if you practice swords, you will have to endure a lot of hardships, and it is easier to follow the path of Confucianism and Taoism, but in any case, after practicing, you can live for a long time, but if you live too long, you will naturally be troubled, and in the days ahead, just like the previous days, watching the old lady leave the world, watching many people leave one by one, if you can go farther, in the end, all the people you know will leave, and in the end you will be left alone." ”

A literati wrote a poem about loneliness, and he said it very thoroughly.

Under the childish melon and willow shed, in the narrow alley where the thin dog chases the butterfly, the world is prosperous and laughs, but I have two sideburns to spare.

Later, someone carefully interpreted this poem, "The word loneliness is taken apart, there are children, melons and fruits, dogs, mosquitoes and flies, which are enough to support the mouth of an alley in a midsummer evening, full of human feelings." Children, fruits, cats, dogs, flies, and flies are of course lively, but they have nothing to do with you, which is called loneliness. ”

Li Fuyao looked at Cheng Du and said softly, "Uncle heard that you didn't want to practice before, why did you do it?"

Cheng Du didn't answer this question, but said, "Uncle, when I heard you say this, I don't want to practice anymore. ”

Li Fu shook his head and smiled: "It's not a big deal, if you don't practice, you won't practice." ”

In this matter, Li Fuyao had no intention of forcing it.

Cheng Du hesitated: "But if I leave, my father and mother will be very sad." ”

For example, a young girl of her age often thinks very directly.

However, if he does not practice, Li Fuyao is not willing to force anything.

Li Fuyao didn't say anything more, but finally said that whether you practice or not, you have to think about it yourself.

......

......

Time is the most unbearable scrutiny, because when you are scrutinizing, you will find that time has gone a long, long time.

Before the New Year, after the Laba Festival, every household in Luoyang City had to drink a bowl of Laba porridge, Li Fuyao was like this, came out of the house, drank a bowl of Laba porridge with Li's father and Li's mother, and then stayed for a long time, said some gossip, and left alone, but Cheng Du came to Li Fuyao's window later, and looked at her uncle for a long time.

Li Fuyao knew her intention, but did not speak.

"Uncle, I still don't want to practice. ”

Li Fu shook her head and said for no reason, "Your mother should be coming back before the Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

Sure enough, after Li Fushao said this, on the first night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Xiaoxue rushed to Luoyang City, when many people on the long street were firing artillery battles, and Cheng Twilight and Li's father and mother were among them.

Li Fuyao sat on the threshold, looking at the lights in the distance, waiting for Li Xiaoxue, who had some vicissitudes on his face.

The latter thought about it, but sat down next to his brother.

Li Fuyao got straight to the point and said, "There is no end to cultivation, but have you thought about how far you should go?"

Li Xiaoxue held the Xiaoxue sword, and after thinking about it, she tilted her head and said, "Anyway, it's not as good as your brother, it's not important." ”

Li Fuyao said softly: "Cultivation is personal, as long as you are willing, you will move forward, but Cheng Du is only a hundred years old, and you should always find time to accompany her more, so as not to leave any regrets." ”

Li Xiaoxue was surprised: "I originally thought that after my brother came back as an uncle, he would be able to make Du'er change her mind. ”

Li Fuyao's expression was complicated, "You really underestimate your daughter." ”

Li Xiaoxue was silent for a moment before she whispered, "I know." ”

Li Fuyao was about to turn around and go to the house, but Li Xiaoxue said, "The woman my brother likes, is it Sister Ye or another woman?"

Li Fuyao turned his head to look at Li Xiaoxue, and the whole person was a little confused.

Li Xiaoxue hadn't seen Ye Shengge for more than twenty years, and Li Fuyao didn't know why she would ask such a thing, at least in the current opinion, it shouldn't be.

Li Fuyao didn't speak, Li Xiaoxue said to herself: "Actually, Sister Ye is an excellent woman. ”

Back then, in Luoyang City, Ye Shengge took Li Xiaoxue with him almost every day, which left an excellent memory in Li Xiaoxue's memory.

After saying this, Li Xiaoxue took a step ahead of Li Fuyao and walked into the house.

This made Li Fuyao smile bitterly.

But in the end, he said: "The woman I like is in the demon land." ”

Li Xiaoxue laughed, but said: "In this life, I'm afraid that I won't see my brother wearing a red robe." ”

——

Far north, in the middle of the icy sea.

Qinghuai stood alone on a huge block of ice, slowly moving towards the north with the sea of ice, which was deserted, not suitable for habitation, but suitable for sharpening itself.

The cold invaded the body in wisps, making people very uncomfortable, Qinghuai walked on a small iceberg, looking at the white expanse in front of her, without any expression, she has been like this all these years, at the beginning, her realm cultivation was much stronger than those young demon disciples of the same age, it was because of this hard practice, as for why she fell in the end, it was because she was concerned about someone, and then after putting her body and mind on cultivation again, the realm cultivation of the whole person naturally caught up quickly.

So much so that now, it can already be compared with Ye Shengge.

Ye Shengge walked fast, relying on her talent and bloodline, it is rare to see her practice hard, but she cannot be denied.

Qinghuai is working hard, and he has to pay a little more attention.

After sitting down, Qinghuai quickly closed her eyes, and the things of this world, from now on, almost began to have nothing to do with her.

I don't know how much time this retreat will take, but after it is over, it will definitely make her more stable in the realm of ascending the tower.

She didn't know that when she was retreating in this extreme north, Ye Shengge went to the easternmost part of this world, with a sea to the north, a swamp to the south, and a forest to the east.

The Buddha land is located in the westernmost part, in fact, you don't need to go, you should know that the westernmost part is a desert.

At the end of such a forest, there are cliffs and thick clouds.

Ye Shengge stood in front of the cliff, just silent for a moment, then turned around and left, four places, she had already walked three, and she was almost sure what this world was like.

The desert to the west was no longer necessary, and what she had to do after that was probably to find someone.

It doesn't matter how many people there are in this world, but only this one is likely to have the ability to answer her questions, but if she thinks so, there are two things that are not sure.

The first is whether that person is still alive, and the second is whether that person will answer her question even if he is still alive.

Thinking about this, Ye Shengge walked towards the distance with a flat expression, and soon dissipated in the forest.

......

......

On the day of the Chinese New Year, the Li Mansion and the Cheng Mansion both gathered together and set up a large table, which was very lively, but everyone was looking at Li Fuyao, after all, among all the people here, the most important thing was Li Fuyao.

Whether it's on the side of the palace, or on the hill.

Li Fuyao sat next to Cheng Dui, just ate a few chopsticks and brought some fun things to the little girl.

Those are all clever gadgets that have been acquired over the years, and they are not particularly high-grade magic weapons.

After eating Chinese New Year's Eve, Cheng Twilight and Li Fusha sat under the gazebo and watched the moonlight in the middle of the night, and finally the little girl couldn't stay up after a while, so she went back to sleep.

And Li Fuyao drank a lot of wine, and finally threw the clouds out, and the sword left Luoyang City.

Cheng Du didn't actually fall asleep, she hid in the corner and quietly waved at Li Fuyao.

In the distance, Mother Li also looked at the sky.
