Fairy Liuyun, dressed in white, seemed to be in deep sleep. Except for her pale skin, it was impossible to tell that she had been dead for ten years.
Ye Xiaochuan was no longer kneeling at this moment, but was sitting on the ice jade bed, reaching out to gently touch his mother's dry hair, and looking at the face that he would never forget.
Every moment I spent with my mother ten years ago lingers in my mind.
Ye Xiaochuan's biggest regret in his life is that he did not fulfill his filial piety for one day at his mother's knees, which Ye Xiaochuan will never be able to forgive himself for.
Ten years ago at the top of Samsara Peak, my mother died in my arms. It felt like yesterday, and it felt like thousands of years had passed.
Ye Xiaochuan couldn't help himself and burst into tears.
How much he wanted his mother to look at him again.
How he wanted his mother to hear him call her mother again.
Qin Guichen and Yuan Xiaolou placed sacrificial supplies under the ice jade bed.
Cultivators are not immune to vulgarity, and the sacrificial supplies are nothing more than some ingots, candles, incense and the like.
As the wife of Ye Xiaochuan and the daughter-in-law of the Ye family, the two daughters made nine kowtows and eighteen bows to Fairy Liuyun's body.
After kowtowing, Qin Guichen knelt on the ground and burned the paper for Fairy Liuyun.
He said softly: "Mom, Xiaochuan has grown up and matured. He has now returned to the Ye family lineage and has become the new generation of Ghost King of the Ghost Xuan Sect, commanding tens of thousands of monks.
We should have come to see you a long time ago, don't blame us for the delay for so many years."
It can be heard from Qin Guichen's words that even if she has not married Ye Xiaochuan or consummated the marriage, she already regards herself as Ye Xiaochuan's wife.
At this point, Yuan Xiaolou's performance was a little weaker. She just said that she would take good care of Ye Xiaochuan, so that Fairy Liuyun could rest assured.
Through today's worship, Ye Xiaochuan is no longer innocent of the possibility of hurting his two daughters.
Regardless of whether Ye Xiaochuan really loves the two girls in his heart, just based on the two girls kneeling down today, they are Ye Xiaochuan's wives.
The two girls prepared a lot of ingot candles. They knew that burning these things would be useless, but they still prepared a lot. It seemed that only in this way could Fairy Liuyun recognize them as their daughter-in-law.
I don't know how long it took.
Maybe it's one hour, maybe it's three hours.
Ye Xiaochuan's tears finally dried up.
He said hoarsely: "My dear friends, Xiaolou, please go out first. I want to stay alone with my mother for a while and talk to her. Don't let anyone come in and disturb me."
Although the two girls were worried about Ye Xiaochuan, they still didn't say anything. Since they had been kneeling on the hard stone floor for a long time, the two girls were a little overwhelmed. When they stood up, their legs felt a little weak.
Qin's girlfriend said: "Zongci, let's wait for you outside."
During this time, Ye Xiaochuan kept crying and didn't say anything.
After the two daughters went out, Ye Xiaochuan finally spoke and said to his mother: "Mom, I'm here."
Then, Ye Xiaochuan began to talk about his life over the past few years.
Starting from Lantian County, he told almost every little thing, including those bedside conversations with Yuan Xiaolou, in detail to his mother who was lying on the jade bed in front of her.
He wanted his mother to know what he had been going through every day over the years.
He stubbornly believed that as long as he told his mother, it would mean that his mother had been by his side all these years and watched what he had experienced.
As soon as Qin Guichen and Yuan Xiaolou walked out of the Ice Jade Cave, Shangguan Yu immediately came over and wanted to go in to worship Fairy Liuyun.
Qin's concubine was very cold towards Shangguan Yu. This was mainly due to the fact that Xuantian Sect had just massacred Wanhu Ancient Cave not long ago.
Qin Guichen said calmly: "Xiaochuan is talking to his mother inside, Shangguan Fairy should not disturb their mother and son."
Shangguan Yu looked a little gloomy and said nothing, still standing guard in front of the stone door of the Ice Jade Cave.
One hour, six hours...
One day, two days...
Before I knew it, three days had passed.
In the past three days, the stone gate has not been opened once.
Everyone was worried about Ye Xiaochuan.
Many times, Yuan Xiaolouchen wanted to open the stone door and go in to see how Ye Xiaochuan was doing, but he was stopped by Qin Guichen every time.
Regarding this kind of thing, Qin Guichen is obviously much more mature than Yuan Xiaolou.
She knew that this stone door could only be opened from the inside, so that Ye Xiaochuan could truly walk out.
Opening it from the outside, Ye Xiaochuan will still be trapped in the knot in his heart.
Like this, another three days passed.
After Ye Xiaochuan stayed with his mother in the Ice Jade Cave for six days, the stone door finally opened.
Yuan Xiaolou has been guarding the stone gate of Hanbing Jade Cave for the past six days.
Even rest is here.
Of course, there is another reason why she placed herself in this remote and quiet cave passage. She still doesn't know how to face her brother Yuan Shaoqin.
The stone door opened, and Yuan Xiaolou, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation in front of the door, woke up immediately.
She stood up and said: "Husband, you finally..."
After only saying five words, Yuan Xiaolou paused, his face full of shock and astonishment.
During these six days, Ye Xiaochuan has been talking about every day and everything he has experienced over the years without stopping for a moment. At this moment, his expression is a little tired, and he sees Yuan Xiaolou's surprised look.
He said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaolou, what's wrong with you?"
Yuan Xiaolou stretched out his hand, pointed at Ye Xiaochuan's head, and stammered: "Husband...you...your hair..."
Ye Xiaochuan frowned, untied the scholar's hair crown on his head, and let his long hair fall down.
Only then did Ye Xiaochuan realize that his hair had turned white.
It's not completely white, but the hair on both sides of the temples has turned silvery white.
Ye Xiaochuan was stunned.
All the people who came after hearing the news were stunned when they saw that the hair on both sides of Ye Xiaochuan's temples had turned white.
It is not fiction to have gray hair overnight, but if you want to have gray hair overnight, you need to go through a huge life transition.
Ye Xiaochuan locked himself in the Ice Jade Cave for six full days, and it was as if he had undergone a transformation.
Those present were all well-informed people. They knew that with Ye Xiaochuan's conduct and being so young, it would have been impossible for him to turn gray overnight if he hadn't experienced something unforgettable and heart-breaking.
It is unimaginable how painful Ye Xiaochuan was in the Ice Jade Cave during these six days.
Yuan Xiaolou burst into tears, and Qin Guichen's face was filled with distress.
They would rather bear all the suffering themselves than let Ye Xiaochuan bear it.
In the crowd, the corners of Yun Qiyou's mouth twitched slightly.
The original hatred for Ye Xiaochuan in her eyes gradually disappeared after seeing Ye Xiaochuan's appearance at this moment.
It seemed that she was also feeling sorry for Ye Xiaochuan.
No one spoke, including Xuan Ying.
The person who finally broke the tranquility was Wanyan without tears.
Wanyan Wulei said with a smile: "He has a boyish face and white hair. He is quite handsome. Unfortunately, he is half white. If he were completely white, he would be even more handsome."
Ye Xiaochuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said hoarsely: "Wu Lei, I have become just like you. Finally, you are no longer the only one with gray hair among young people." Wanyan Wu Lei said with a smile: "We are different.
