"Farewell to Lingyuan. You are much older. We are also old friends. Can you ask for anything?" Lu Yin asked. Linjie's thoughts were complicated and he kept thinking about it. What he wanted? Once, what he asked for was to climb and carry with him.
The Linlushan family has surpassed one peak after another and become the strongest family, but now, what can he ask for? These years of experience have made him tired.
He was really tired. Although it was only a few hundred years ago, he had experienced more life and death than the previous half of his life combined. The torture of illness and injury made him worse than death. He thought about killing himself countless times. Only then did he understand what he was doing.
What do you want, but a healthy body, a simple diet, watching the sun rise and setting every day, and accompanying you
Daughter, that is the happiest thing.
He led the Linlushan family all the way from an ordinary cultivator. He put in so much effort, but it was easily destroyed. What on earth are people pursuing in life?
Behind him, Linjie's daughter knelt down again: "Please Lord Lu, please treat my father's illness and save him from pain and suffering."
Linjie's body trembled and he looked at Lu Yin with longing in his eyes.
Lu Yin and Linjie looked at each other: "That's it?"
Linjie looked at Lu Yin's eyes. The experience of the first half of his life was like running water. Huge things like the Spring and Autumn Slips were easily destroyed. Is there any difference between living for ten thousand years and living for one year? The pain of ten thousand years is not worth the pain of one year.
happiness.
His eyes gradually became firmer: "That's all."
Lu Yin smiled. He had no connection with Linjie. Lingyuan only had a few quarrels when they met. If it wasn't for Shui Su, he wouldn't have come here.
This Linjie gave up his lifelong pursuit and just wanted to cure his illness. This person gave up.
Lu Yin had a second brick added to the high wall of his mind. He didn't know how many bricks this high wall needed. He only knew that one day, this high wall would block him from being able to see the distance, and would make him want to break through it.
desire.
By the river, watching the boat go away, Linjie, his daughter, and Shuisu knelt down deeply. They said goodbye and would never see each other again.
Shuisu's eyes were complicated, and the past month or so had been like a dream. To this person, it was just a scenery.
The boat continued to flow down the river. The change in the river's course allowed Lu Yin to see a different scenery than before. Mortals were old friends, but he had never seen these old friends, but their ancestors must have seen him.
Lu Yin didn't need to blur his appearance when facing mortals, because mortals wouldn't recognize him even if they heard his own voice.
Only cultivators have seen what they look like.
A few years later, the boat floated along the current into a city. This city was filled with mortals, and Lu Yin heard the familiar name again - heavenly beings.
Heavenly being is the name that mortals give to cultivators.
He sat on the boat, ate some dishes, sipped tea and meditated, which made many people say that he was a heavenly being. Even the officials of the city came to see him and talked to him, but Lu Yin ignored him.
As the sky gets darker, the watchman steps out to ring the night.
There's a curfew.
But no one cares about him, and heaven and man are not restrained.
"Hey, hey." Someone shouted softly.
Lu Yin looked into the grass beside the river bank and saw a young man: "Looking for me?"
The young man looked at Lu Yin. Due to the darkness, he couldn't see his face clearly, but his eyes were hot: "Are you a celestial being?"
Lu Yin nodded: "Yes."
"Great, heavenly being, can you do me a favor?" the young man asked.
Lu Yin smiled: "Why do you want to help?"
The young man touched his pocket and took out a piece of metal: "This is for you."
Lu Yin made a casual move and the metal flew over, making the young man envious.
It is just a very ordinary piece of metal that can be used to make weapons for cultivators. It is useless, but it is already a material that is difficult to melt for mortals.
"I found this by accident in the mountains and took it to Blacksmith Wang. Blacksmith Wang said that it is only useful for heavenly beings and cannot be cremated. Do you think it will be useful to you?" the young man asked hopefully.
Lu Yin put it away: "Okay, what do you want me to help you with?"
The young man breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it was useful: "I would like to ask you to help me find someone, who is also a heavenly being."
Lu Yin said: "The world is so vast, how can I find it?"
"Just do your best."
"This piece of metal is quite precious. If it's too wasteful to just find someone, you can change the terms."
The young man insisted: "I don't want to change, I just want to find that person."
Lu Yin hummed: "Okay, who can I find?"
The young man reached into his arms again and took out a painting. He saw that the scroll was very old. He carefully unfolded it to reveal the content of the painting.
Seeing the content, Lu Yin's eyes narrowed, is this?
What I saw in the painting was a small boat floating on the current. There was an umbrella on the boat, and a deck chair under the umbrella. There was a person sitting leisurely on the deck chair. There was a wooden table next to it, and some food was placed on the wooden table.
.
This is the scene when I wanted to understand my state of mind and went down in a boat to tell people's fortunes.
The parasol and the drink and fruit plate are exactly the same, they are me.
Is this boy looking for me?
The young man put down the painting and felt a little embarrassed: "I know this clue is difficult to find, but there is no way. Maybe I can only meet you as a heavenly being in this life, so I want to ask for your help to see if I can find the person above.
.”
Lu Yin looked deeply at the young man. The cause and effect spiral entangled at his fingertips, and then penetrated the young man's body, revealing scenes of cause and effect in the past. He was looking for the relationship between the young man and himself. Soon, he saw a person, a familiar person, that young man.
The woman wrote the word "ten" on the ground to make herself feel better. Before leaving, she helped him and his husband and son get rid of their illnesses and let them live a long life.
age.
This young man is their descendant.
But the location is wrong. This city is an area after the water channel has been changed. It is far away from the city where the woman was originally met. It is a distance that is difficult for mortals to reach. Why is this family here? The cause and effect of the past keeps flashing, Lu Yin understands
Yes, it's a war. There are wars among mortals too. Back then, the woman's family left their home to escape the war and came here. They were displaced, but because they didn't exist
They suffered from illness and lived a long life, so that they came here step by step, and their descendants also settled in this city. This painting was also painted by the woman before she died. She could not draw her own appearance, but she clearly remembered the scene on the boat.
She knew very well that the long life of her family was only related to herself, because she had only been in contact with herself.
Such a heavenly being.
In their understanding, gods and humans are omnipotent.
Lu Yin looked deeply at the painting. Was it fate? The waterway had changed, but he could still meet the descendants of his old friend.
"Celestial Being? Can you find it?" the young man asked in a low voice.
Lu Yin looked at the young man: "Why are you looking for him?"
The young man was bitter and his eyes were red: "It is said by our ancestors that the heavenly being in the painting is protecting us. My mother is seriously ill and there is no cure. She can only live for two years at most. I want to ask that heavenly being to help me."
Lu Yin asked back: "Then why didn't you ask me for help directly? Instead, you asked me to find this person. Even if I finally found this person, it might have been two years."
The young man looked at Lu Yin blankly: "Can you cure my mother?"
Lu Yin smiled: "Okay."
The young man's eyes were bright and excited: "Then I beg you to heal my mother, please." Lu Yin sighed. This young man believed the words of his ancestors and regarded the man in the painting as a god. He subconsciously believed that only the man in the painting could heal.
His mother didn't trust other practitioners, so he was betting that he could find someone within two years.
The person in the painting.
Because he is convinced that only the person in the painting can cure him. If he does not seek help from the person in the painting, but directly seeks help from himself, once he cannot cure it, he will have wasted a piece of metal. This piece of metal is his only bargaining chip with the gods.
This bet was made with great determination. It was his only chance, and he was betting with his mother's life.
Lu Yin easily cured the boy's mother.
Seeing his mother's blood getting better, the young man was excited and kowtowed to Lu Yin.
The boat rowed across and away from the city. He didn't know if it was fate or something else when he met this young man. At this moment, he fell into confusion.
Several years passed, and he still couldn't figure out why he met his old friend in a new city. This old friend was just a mortal, and with just a few words, he was tied to the present. Where did this tie come from?
Even after several years, he was still thinking about it.
Until someone bowed deeply to him by the river, Lu Yin was completely confused.
Yuan Huo?
That's right, the person standing by the river and bowing deeply to him at this moment was none other than Yuan Huo, the cultivator who was in love with the mortal woman Kui Niang and wanted to take her away but couldn't, making everyone in the city feel uncomfortable.
In the end, it was Lu Yin who made them see his true heart, and Kui Niang's words of reluctance made Yuan Huo feel relieved, and also made the whole city feel relieved.
It was also from this incident that Lu Yin understood that the so-called known hardships were not necessarily the real hardships. The hardships could be overcome, but the real hardships were difficult to find. This was the reason why there were so few immortal realms.
Overcoming hardship is not the most difficult thing, the most difficult thing is to find the real hardship.
"Why are you here?" Lu Yin's face was solemn. This was not the location of the city where Huo Huo and Kui Niang were. It was further away than the city before the young man came from the original city.
Yuan Huo recognized Lu Yin. At this moment, Lu Yin's outfit was no different from when he had fortune telling, but the word "fortune telling" was missing.
Of course, he couldn't see Lu Yin's face clearly, but he only knew that this man had told his fortune and asked him to stay together with the woman he loved.
"The city was destroyed and Kui Niang died, so I traveled around the world alone. I didn't expect to meet Mr. again. It is really a great blessing. Please accept me to pay homage to Mr." As he said that, he bowed deeply.
Lu Yin narrowed his eyes: "Why did you come here?"
Yuan Huo was puzzled: "Shouldn't we have come here?"
"I don't know, I'm just curious why you came here."
"Just do whatever you want."
Lu Yin looked at Yuan Huo, just following his heart?
This Yuan Huo must have just followed his heart, but why did he meet him? Where did the heart come from? Where did the fate come from? In addition, the young man from before.
Lu Yin suddenly turned his head and looked behind him. His consciousness swept through the cities, and finally he saw his portrait in a city. It came from a family and was enshrined. Under the portrait, there were six taels of gold.
His body was shaken, how could this happen?
Six taels of gold was the old woman who asked me to tell my fortune. Why did she appear in the city behind again? Although I didn't encounter it, when I looked behind me at this moment, didn't I also see it? It was equivalent to encountering it.
