When you are full of wine and food, you are thinking about sex; when you are hungry and cold, you are hungry and want to steal.
After having a sumptuous lunch and saying goodbye to his second uncle and everyone in the Bai family, Jiang Xuan had no thoughts at all. Instead, he missed the purity of the mountains.
"Did you hear what I told you?"
"Not to mention that the little girl from the Bai family is very pretty, she is also well-educated and a good cook."
"What's more important is that she has a big butt and can give birth!"
"If we marry her home, your mother and I might be able to have a grandson next year!"
"Didn't scholars say that those who are near the water and the terrace first get the moon? In order for you to be near the water and the terrace, I gave the Bai family a few pieces of land for free. You kid, give me some support."
"Also, I have already discussed it with Su'e. She said that although marriage matters depend on the girl's own thoughts, she will also do Xianglian's work."
"If you work harder, you can definitely do it."
"By the way, Su'e is Bai Yutang's wife, Bai Xianglian's mother, your future mother-in-law!"
Listening to his cheap mother nagging in his ears with dull eyes, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt that this life was really meaningless.
So what if you become a Taoist?
In the eyes of the elders, isn’t it just like a machine for carrying on the family line?
There's no fun at all.
"Are you listening?"
After a long time, Jiang's mother ended her chatter with a question.
Jiang Xuan nodded, then shook his head:
"Of course I listen to what you say, mother, but I am only 16 years old and it is too early to get married."
"Master said that it takes me one year to become a Taoist, and it will only take about five years to advance to Xiantian."
"So I don't want to get married until I'm 21."
"Five years?"
Hearing what Jiang Xuan said, Jiang's mother's eyes suddenly widened:
"How many five years are there in a person's life? How do you want my mother to spend these five years?"
Jiang Xuan lowered his eyes and replied:
"After entering the Tao, you will have a life span of one hundred and five years, and there will be thirty five years."
"As for the heir, Xiaowen is only one year younger than me and will be sixteen next year. Maybe mother can encourage him."
It's okay if Jiang Xuan didn't say this, but as soon as the words came out, Jiang's mother became even more angry:
"Don't mention that little heartless little brother of yours."
"It's said that reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles. As soon as the Chinese New Year was over, he took a boat out of Sixi County with his cheap master, and he hasn't even returned home yet. I think he just doesn't have me as a mother in his heart!"
Looking at the angry Mother Jiang, Jiang Xuan shrugged and continued:
"If Xiao Wen can't do it, isn't there Xiao Wu?"
"That kid Xiao Wu wants to practice martial arts. People who practice martial arts have strong energy and blood. Who doesn't have many children and grandchildren?"
"When I get started with alchemy, I will make more elixirs for him to replenish his qi and blood. Coupled with the spiritual vegetables at home, I think it will take less than a year for him to be born with qi and blood and become a warrior. It is expected that he will enter the second realm of the warrior within two years.
."
"That's three years."
"Three years later, he will be 16 years old. If you are willing, please let him marry and have children."
Hearing Jiang Xuan's shameless words, Jiang's mother was shocked:
"Xiao Wu is only 13 years old. You are trying to influence him now. How can you be his brother?"
Before Jiang’s mother finished speaking, Jiang Wu pushed the door open and walked in:
"Mom, although I am only 13 years old, I am not young anymore!"
As he spoke, he puffed out his chest:
"When I can get married and have children in two years, I will take over the responsibility of passing on the inheritance!"
"And I've also found someone."
"I think the widow Liu from the village is very good. I want to marry her in two years!"
As Jiang Wu finished speaking, the small room suddenly fell into complete silence.
After a long time, Jiang's mother pointed at Jiang Wu with a trembling hand:
"Guizi, say it again!"
"I think the widow Liu from the village is very good. I want to marry her in two years!"
Jiang Wu raised his neck and replied.
"Widow Liu's son Jiang Lie is three years older than you. When you were catching loaches in the fields two days ago, you called him Brother Lie. You..."
"What's this?"
Jiang Wu looked disdainful:
"Jiang Lie treats me as his brother, and after I marry Widow Liu, I treat him as his son. We can each do our own thing."
"Besides, after I marry Widow Liu, Jiang Lie will have to call you grandma. Are you still not satisfied with having a fat grandson as big as my brother for nothing?"
"After I take Widow Liu, I will look for a wife for Brother Lie. You will be a grandma in two years."
Hearing this, Mother Jiang couldn't bear it anymore. She picked up the broom in Jiang Xuan's room and waved it over:
"I asked you why you always go to Widow Liu's house. It turns out that you and your father have the same virtues, but they have fallen in love with Widow Liu's charming son. Let's see if I can kill you, a little bastard."
"Mom, if you have something to say, please say it, but don't do anything!"
Watching Jiang's mother chasing Jiang Wu out of the yard through the window, Jiang Xuan smiled and shook his head:
"My third brother is truly a talent."
"It really has the style of Wei Wu."
After sighing with emotion, Jiang Xuan closed the door and took out the box given to him by his second uncle.
Reaching out and taking out the lightning strike wood from the box, Jiang Xuan couldn't help feeling the magic of creation as he felt the breath contained in it.
Jujube wood is pure Yang. After being struck by lightning, most of it is destroyed by thunder and fire, and not a single one in a hundred survives.
Shen Yin wood is the wood that can only be born after trees have been in the dark depths of the water for thousands of years. It has the ability to nourish the soul and ward off evil spirits.
Although yin and yang can coincide, they mostly conflict in nature without human interference.
What's more, the jujube wood struck by lightning still contains the power of thunder.
Therefore, lightning struck the dark jujube tree, which is a story only found in fairy tales.
Unexpectedly, it was actually in front of me now.
Holding the lightning strike wood in his coil, Jiang Xuandang began to think about its use.
"Making bracelets or making seals?"
"This ebony wood is big enough. Why don't you make a seal first and use the remaining materials to make bracelets?"
"Maybe it can also be made into hanging beads."
"When the time comes, the red dust will be used as a thread to tie the hanging beads, which will not only allow the family to relax and ward off evil spirits, but also allow them to sense their family's situation through the red dust's magical power."
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan suddenly had the idea of returning to the mountain:
"I don't know if the circular light mirror that Master Xianyang mentioned has been delivered."
"If you want to make this treasure into a magic weapon, you probably need a master to get it done."
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan could no longer sit still.
He got up and picked up the little fox from the arms of his sleeping little sister, and went downstairs to greet little Fudou who was scolded by Father Jiang.
After chatting with Father Jiang for a few more words, he walked out of the courtyard.
The golden crow falls in the west, and the moon palace hangs its branches.
When Jiang Xuan stood on the top of Zhushan Mountain again, the stars had already hung in the dark night.
He ultimately failed to return to the mountain in the afternoon.
Looking back at the lights of thousands of houses at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but have a trace of trance in his eyes:
"Although the mortal world is good, if you don't live forever, it will be nothing more than a handful of loess in the end."
"In this life, living forever is my pursuit."
"嘤嘤嘤~"
The little fox lying on Jiang Xuan's shoulder heard Jiang Xuan talking to himself and couldn't help but bark twice.
Turning his head to look at the stiff little fox, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but have a smile in his eyes:
"Okay, okay, let's look for immortality together."
After laughing, Jiang Xuan led the little fox and little Fudou towards the bamboo house.
Ever since they ate the crystal feed, their mouths have been raised to hold it.
Apart from crystal feed, only the flesh and blood of spiritual beasts make them want to eat it.
Coupled with the stupid bird guarding the mountain, it means that the three little guys have not eaten for a whole day.
He had to feed them something quickly.
But as soon as he walked into the bamboo house, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt something was wrong.
Why are there muddy paw prints on the ground?
Following the paw prints and walking into the bedroom, Jiang Xuan was stunned for a moment.
Why is it that I have half a pack of feed left?
There is also a Taoist robe hanging on the hanger. Why is there one piece missing?
