Chapter 1505: Refining the Heart in the Mortal World (52)
Chapter 1508: Refining the Heart in the Mortal World (52)
Yunmeng Daze, Tianyun City, Wang Family.
A drizzle began to fall in the sky, falling wetly on the bluestone floor. However, everyone standing in the courtyard of Tingyuxuan ignored the rain falling on their faces and bodies.
Men, women, old and young, all looked solemn, and the atmosphere at the scene was extremely depressing.
In the master bedroom, Wang Chen sat next to the bed, holding Ye Dai's hand tightly.
This hand was once as slender, white, and as warm as jade, but now it is as skinny as wood and has wrinkled skin covered with dark brown spots.
Lying on the bed, Ye Dai had a head full of white hair. She had long lost the beauty and gentleness of the past, and her complexion was extremely weak.
Anyone can see that she has run out of fuel and has no hope of living anymore.
However, there was no fear of death on Ye Dai's face, and the eyes she looked at Wang Chen were still full of tenderness and happy love.
"Husband."
Ye Dai called out softly, then used her last bit of strength to hold Wang Chen's hand and put it against her face.
At this moment, she showed an extremely satisfied smile, her originally cloudy eyes suddenly became brighter, and she even regained a lot of energy.
An indescribable sadness suddenly surged into Wang Chen's heart.
He lowered his head and approached his wife and asked softly: "Diel, do you have anything else to say to me?"
Ye Dai shook her head and said with a smile: "With my husband by my side in this life, I will not have any regrets. If there is an afterlife..."
At this point, her breath gradually weakened, but she still said her last words: "I hope I can still be with you!"
The next moment, this woman who lived to be a hundred years old suddenly passed away.
Wang Chen suddenly closed his eyes.
He felt as if a large piece of his heart had been cut out by a sharp knife, and it suddenly became empty.
More than 80 years ago, Wang Chen and Ye Dai got married.
After they got married, the two of them worked together harmoniously and truly respected each other like guests until they grew old together.
For decades, Ye Dai has been his best helper, taking care of his family business, managing his house, and raising children in a virtuous and elegant manner. She has become the most respectable mistress in the eyes of nearly a million people in Tianyun City.
Wang Chen and her have been together for so many years and have already become an inseparable part of each other's lives.
He also tried his best to extend Ye Dai's life, but the limits of ordinary people were far lower than those of immortal cultivators. It was a blessing to live to be a hundred years old, and it was impossible to force more.
In fact, Wang Chen knew her return date a few years ago.
We are also well prepared.
However, no matter how well-prepared you are, you can't withstand the psychological impact of this moment!
"Grandma is gone..."
When the unfortunate news spread from the room to the outside, the descendants and grandchildren of the Wang family knelt down in grief, with tears streaming down their faces.
Ye Dai has been in charge of the family home for so many years, and has a reputation for kindness and justice, and both her concubines and concubines receive the treatment they deserve.
There is no descendant of the Wang family who is not grateful for his kindness and virtue.
Yes, that is a person with a wolf-like heart and a dog-like lung!
"mother!"
At this moment, a figure flashed into the room.
It’s Wang Zhenzhen!
Seeing Ye Dai lying on the bed with her eyes closed, she was stunned for a moment, and her body shook involuntarily.
Immediately she knelt down beside Wang Chen with tears streaming down her face: "Mom, I'm sorry, my daughter is late!"
Two years ago, Wang Zhenzhen was practicing in seclusion in her own courtyard.
Although she was a top grandmaster, she did not have Wang Chen's spiritual awareness. Seeing that the old lady had no problem either physically or mentally, she was not prepared at all.
Who would have thought that Ye Dai passed away so suddenly.
Just now, Wang Zhenzhen suddenly felt something in her heart in the quiet room, and immediately rushed out to listen to Yuxuan.
It turned out to be a step too late.
Although Wang Zhenzhen is already at the age of becoming a grandmother and her mind has been sharpened to a rock solid state, she still couldn't help but shed tears at this moment and felt extremely guilty.
It wasn't until Wang Chen's hand gently pressed her shoulder that she suddenly came back to her senses: "Daddy."
"It's fine."
Wang Chen said softly: "Your mother passed away peacefully without any pain. All mortals are mortal, so you don't need to apologize."
Wang Zhenzhen nodded with tears in her eyes.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A low bell rang in Tianyun City, one after another, echoing in everyone's ears.
People living in this city know that they have just lost one of their most respectable matrons.
For Wang Chen, an endless journey of life and death has just begun.
In fact, before Ye Dai, one of his concubines had passed away. After Ye Dai, Ye Yu also followed his own lady.
The next year, Wang Chen's eldest son Wang Jingxing passed away.
In the next ten years, his children, children and even grandchildren died one by one due to old age, illness or other accidents.
But the Wang family did not decline because of this, because the number of new students was much greater.
In the past ten years, Wang Chen has never spent a day in seclusion to practice.
His favorite thing to do is to sit by a small river outside the city. With a bamboo pole, silk thread and a fishhook, he can catch fish for a day just sitting there.
In addition, when a new baby is born in the family, Wang Chen will also go and see it in person.
Feel the unique vitality of life.
He was getting older and older, his eyes became cloudy, and he even fell asleep while sitting by the river fishing, and it took him a long time to wake up.
For this reason, the descendants of the Wang family began to make secret preparations.
But Wang Chen is not alone.
Although his wives and concubines are all deceased, his most beloved daughter Wang Zhenzhen is often by his side.
Spend a day fishing with him.
Suddenly one day, Wang Chen put away his fishing rod, smiled at Wang Zhenzhen and said: "Zhen'er, daddy wants to go outside for a visit, can you come with me?"
Wang Zhenzhen replied without hesitation: "Wherever the father goes, my daughter will go!"
Wang Chen smiled and said: "Good daughter."
The father and daughter left immediately, leaving only a few words for the family members.
The descendants of the Wang family were naturally shocked. They felt that Wang Chen was confused and messing around - if he went out like this, could he come back again?
But none of them had the courage to stop it.
So Wang Chen and Wang Zhenzhen embarked on their last trip.
The father and daughter re-traveled the same path they took before, and even further, leaving their footprints and shadows on the snow-covered plateau in the south, sea and north.
It also left many new legends in the world of mortals!
Until one day, Wang Chen took Wang Zhenzhen to a very high mountain peak.
He sat down on the top of the mountain, and then told his daughter his true identity and the reason why he came to the mortal world.
After Wang Zhenzhen heard this, she could not speak for a long time.
She burst into tears: "Dad, are you going back?"
"Yes."
Wang Chen nodded: "Zhen'er, daddy is leaving."
Today, it has just been a hundred years since he came to the mortal world of mountains and seas!
