Chapter 4: Awake and Sleep
Within a month, the news that the Ye family had brought back a descendant of the 'living dead' spread in Tianqu City. As one of the four major families, any small thing can become a conversation after dinner, let alone a major event for children and grandchildren. Moreover, thirteen years ago, the unintentional birth and the 100-day banquet had alarmed the entire Tianqu City. He was destined to be noticed.
Thirteen years ago, on the day Wuxin was born, auspicious clouds fell from the sky, and colorful auspicious clouds appeared in the sky above Ye Mansion, so people concluded that this child would be the lucky star of the Ye family and even the entire Tianqu City. On the day of the 100-day banquet, Tianqu City was festive, up to the city lord, down to Li Min, Yefu was even more noisy with gongs and drums, firecrackers rang out in unison, a lively faction, thousands of flowing water seats were opened for three days and three nights.
By the evening of the third day, a gust of yin wind swept into the Ye Mansion compound, and at the same time, in addition to Wuxin, Feng Wuyan and Ye Changqing disappeared.
The whereabouts of the three were once a mystery, and people speculated. Some people say that the gust of wind is a demon wind, some say it is a fairy wind, some say it is a demon wind, and some people say it is a divine wind, in short, this gust of wind is not man-made. So, slowly, the unintentional story began to become a fairy story.
Three years later, just when people were about to forget, Ye Changqing and Feng Wuyan returned to Tianqu City, Ye Changqing was carried home on a stretcher, which alarmed many people along the way, and Feng Wuyan also became full of white hair. Seeing this picture, people couldn't help but think of their son, so the previous speculation was overturned and began to be arranged in the direction of the demon.
Although Ye Yaozu once announced to everyone that his grandson was going to cultivate immortals, this became 'three hundred taels of silver here' in the ears of those 'people with hearts'.
And now, the descendant of the Ye family who disappeared for thirteen years has returned, but he has become a 'living dead', so more and more people are convinced that he was taken away by demons.
"It's true, someone in our family works in Ye Mansion, and I have seen that young man with his own eyes, his face is pale and bloodless, and it is estimated that the yang energy has been sucked dry by the demons. ”
"Really?"
"Then there can be a fake, let me tell you, the reason why Ye Changqing and his wife became like this is probably because they did it when they were fighting with demons. ”
"It's possible!"
"Hey, it's not me saying, look at the current Ye family, since this happened, the family business has been hit one after another, I think that in less than a year, the Ye family will withdraw from the ranks of the four major families. ”
Such conversations can be heard everywhere in Tianqu City, and Wuxin has once again become the center of the conversation.
Wuxin obviously didn't know that he had become the person at the center of the conversation, he was lying in the courtyard, greedily absorbing the sunlight that penetrated through the cracks in the locust tree, and the four energies in his body seemed to have some kind of wonderful fusion under the beating of that pure jade heart, and he, apparently immersed and obsessed.
For a month, Feng Wuyan did not leave an inch, her hair was already knotted, her face was pale and wrinkled like tree bark. She talks to Wuxin every day, and does not shy away from pouring out her thoughts for thirteen years.
He wanted to wake up and comfort this person who kept crying for himself, but he couldn't open his eyes, couldn't speak, and couldn't move.
And the man in a wheelchair who was as obsessed with sunlight as he was, who rarely spoke, and looked at him from time to time with a look full of guilt.
"Is this my father?" he often wondered in his mind.
A month is enough time for him to digest many things, and his favorite is an old man, the one who speaks loudly and speaks of the world as colorful, his grandfather - Ye Yaozu.
Even, surprisingly, his grandfather gave him a name that was exactly the same as in the abyss - Ye Wuxin.
Ye Changqing objected to this, he felt that this name was not good, it was better to be happy, the two quarreled loudly in the courtyard and it was extremely violent, Ye Changqing said angrily: "I am his father!"
When Ye Yaozu heard this, a strange smile appeared on his face, and he said very calmly: "I... It's your dad!"
Ye Changqing's momentum weakened instantly.
Wuxin remembered that this was the most lively day of the month, and this strong quarrel reminded him of the scene in the gathering place of gods, demons, fairies and demons under the stone cliffs in the abyss, those people often made such noise, and in the end it must not be the truth, but the identity.
Feng Wuxuan stayed by Wuxin's side, her voice had become choppy, as if every word had to be carried with all her strength from her dry throat to the tip of her tongue and through her chapped lips through the gap between the teeth that were about to fall out, there was no doubt that her current state was something Wuxin had never seen.
"If only I could wake up so we can have a meal together. Feng Wuyan's eyes looked at Wuxin clearly, but the emptiness in it was moving. It took her most of a day to say this sentence.
Wuxin thought about it very much, and he couldn't remember that this was the first wish Feng Wuyan had uttered during this time. At first, she said that as long as she didn't want to wake up, she would take him for a good walk in this world and enjoy the beautiful scenery, but later it became that as long as he woke up, it would be good to walk around this Tianqu City, but now, she just wanted to have a home-cooked meal with him and the man in the wheelchair.
It wasn't a big wish, he didn't think he had to satisfy her, and looking at her now, he was pretty sure that the next moment, she would disappear from his sight. He didn't allow it.
The four forces in his body worked at the same time, hitting the beating heart hard, and he felt that all this was due to the heart.
Knock, knock, knock!
The heart beats more and more violently, and the four mental methods work at the same time, and the impact continues.
Unconsciously the red wheel fell westward, night fell, the wind rose in the courtyard, and I suddenly felt a scorching breath rising from my heart, walking my limbs, and the blood in my veins was tumbling, like boiling water in a pot.
Rumble!
Suddenly, a golden light shot straight into the sky, and he opened his eyes unintentionally. Following the golden light, he seemed to see the clouds surging in the sky, turning into an ear and an eye. I didn't have time to think about it, my body moved twice, and I made a gurgling sound. The golden light lasted only for a moment, and it was gone in a flash.
"Wake up!" Ye Changqing shouted loudly.
After a while, I saw Feng Wuxuan smiling and walking out of the room like a spring breeze, she was still full of snowy hair, her face returned to its previous beauty, and she seemed to exude vitality again.
Ye Changqing's heart tightened, and his throat seemed to be choked by something. Four words come to mind - back to the light.
Seeing this, he was puzzled, just a few minutes ago, he could sense that she needed the support of the cold star and cold moon to enter the room, how could she return to this state in an instant.
"My son is awake, I have no intention of waking up!" Feng Wu rushed to the rattan bed like a wind, hugging it tightly. This hug came violently, and it took a long time for me to react.
For a month, there seemed to be no estrangement between them, but Wuxin still didn't know how to face it.
"Why did they call you in the abyss?" Ye Changqing asked.
"Heartless!"
Ye Changqing's heart was shocked, this coincidence made him feel a sense of frustration, and he secretly thought that if the old man knew, he would probably ridicule him.
Feng Wuyan didn't know what to say at this time, as if all the words had been said in this month, she began to instruct the people below to prepare a meal, and their family of three was going to have a meal together.
The news of Wuxin's awakening reached Ye Yaozu's ears, and he quickly walked out of the main courtyard, walked through the corridor, and came to the side courtyard, turned left and right a few times, and came to the courtyard where Wuxin was.
"Damn, I locked the courtyard doors. I want to see my grandson. He stood in front of the courtyard gate and shouted.
In the courtyard, Ye Changqing, Feng Wuyan and Wuxin were dining, Wuxin had a familiar strangeness, and he looked restrained.
"Why don't you let Grandpa in and eat?"
"He's finished eating, I'll let him in later. Ye Changqing's face was expressionless.
Not long after, a black shadow appeared on the courtyard wall, under the illumination of the lantern, it could be seen that it was an old man, Ye Changqing couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this, because it was Ye Yaozu, his father was lying on the courtyard wall, he couldn't go up, he couldn't get down.
"For the old disrespectful, what kind of system!" Ye Changqing muttered.
"Grandpa is going to fall!" said Wuxin.
Ye Changqing put the vegetables into Feng Wuyan's bowl and said, "It's okay, he won't be able to fall down if the wall collapses." So, he went on eating.
Ye Yaozu knew why his son closed the courtyard door, but he just wanted to take a look at this grandson who had been lying for a month, as if he felt uncomfortable if he didn't see it. He sat on the courtyard wall, but his eyes were no longer as sharp as they were when he was younger, and the figure of Wuxin was just a vague shadow in his eyes. He leaned forward, craned his neck, and completely forgot that he was sitting on the courtyard wall.
"Grandpa be careful!" Wuxin shouted, disappeared from the dining table in an instant, appeared under the courtyard wall, and caught Ye Yaozu with his bare hands.
Everyone was shocked, even Feng Wuyan and Ye Changqing were shocked, they didn't know that their son would have such an ability.
"You... How?" Ye Yaozu asked the fox.
He shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "What's so hard about this. ”
Looking at his grandson's naughty appearance, Ye Yaozu was indescribably happy, pursed his lips and repeated: "What's so difficult about this." ”
Burst!
Feng Wuyan spurted out a mouthful of blood, her face turned pale, she looked in Wuxin's direction and smiled, and her body fell backwards.
Seeing this, Han Xing helped him.
Wuxin rushed over, and immediately checked the pulse of Feng Wuxuan, he had learned these from Master Immortal Impermanence. The pulse is weak, the heart and blood are exhausted, and the blood vessels are scorched, which is the 'blood fever (heat) disease'.
"I need Cang'er, Blood Zhi, Lingkui, and Muli!" Wuxin said lightly, and at the same time sent a wave of energy into Feng Wuxuan's heart to ensure that it could continue to beat.
If it weren't for the fact that in the past month, I felt the existence of the four elephants on the rattan bed, and operated according to the four mental methods to absorb the aura of heaven and earth independently, and hid so much power. I'm afraid that even if there are medicinal materials, Feng Wuyan can only end up with a whimper.
Ye Changqing and Ye Yaozu were already stunned on the spot, and they needed time to adapt.
"I said I needed Cang'er, Blood Zhi, Lingkui, and Muli!" Wuxin repeated.
"Okay, well, prepare immediately!" Ye Changqing shouted, and immediately ordered to go down, fortunately, this is Tianqu City, they are originally a family of medicinal herbs, and these herbs will be prepared in less than half an hour.
Thinking about Master Immortal Impermanence's teachings, he quickly took the same amount of the four medicinal herbs, smashed them together, and threw them into the medicine jar, and half an hour later, the blood-red medicinal juice was sent into Feng Wuxuan's mouth.
Feng Wuyan fell into a deep sleep, relying on these few herbs every day to ensure the beating of his heart, but his blood vessels had been scorched, and this was definitely not a long-term solution.
"We needed a cold stone bed. Two days later, Wuxin said to Ye Changqing in the courtyard.
"Why?"
"Because only then does the burnt blood vessels not spread to the rest of the body. Wuxin explained.
"Alright, I'll prepare. ”
Ten days later, Feng Wuyan lay in the cold stone bed, his face calm.
Wuxin and Ye Yaozu, the grandfather and grandson, are together every day. Ye Yaozu took him to the street, and the novel world made him return to his innocence, and he began to slowly feel the mortal world. He found that everything was different from what the four masters had said. He fell in love with the place.
