Immortality begins with sect servants

In the early morning, the sun shines over the mountains and shines on the earth. The dewdrops reflect the crystal golden color, like jewelry, slowly evaporate, and finally disappear.

Li An was sitting in the mountains, a bonfire burning in front of him, and the two crocodiles had been roasted golden.

Most of the creatures in the Tenth Heaven Realm have been taken away by the Heavenly Court, but there are also a few who, when the Heavenly Court was searching for wild creatures in the mountains, hid them because of the nature of wild beasts, and they remain to this day.

Otherwise, if Li An wanted to find some rations, he would have to go all the way to the Ninth Heaven Realm.

Li An didn't know when the war would break out. He fell into boredom and waited, practicing silently, feeling the slow evolution of the mysterious substance in the millstone of life and death in his body, watching the sun rise and set every day, watching The dew condenses and evaporates.

His heart actually found a kind of peace inexplicably, and he experienced a lot from this boring time.

Take a hard bite of crocodile meat, let the oil linger in your mouth, and feel the delicious taste of this world.

Today is another beautiful day.

…

Today is another beautiful day.

For Shangguan Shengxian, today is a special day.

Early in the morning, she left home carrying a bamboo basket and wearing ordinary linen clothes. Before leaving, Xiao Changqing insisted on sticking to her and going out with her. Shangguan Shengxian had no choice but to take Xiao Changqing with him. Went out the door together.

Xiao Changqing had two sky-high braids on her head and a small bamboo basket in her hand. She took Shangguan Shengxian's clothes and went to the street together. The town was very lively, and there were many things for sale on the street. , Xiao Changqing was very happy to see it.

Looking at the rattle on the left and the old man's sugar paintings on the right, he showed his white teeth and kept laughing. Finally, he stopped in front of a vendor carrying candied haws skewers and couldn't walk.

"Evergreen, do you want it?"

Shangguan Shengxian asked.

Xiao Changqing secretly swallowed a sip of saliva, but shook his head and said: "No, mother... Xiao Changqing doesn't like sweets. It's too sweet and her teeth will be broken."

"Mom, let's go buy you some beautiful floral fabrics to make clothes for you!"

He took his mother's rough hand and walked forward. As he walked, he shook his head and said: "Wang Yaya always said that mother is ugly, but mother is not ugly. Mother just wants to raise Changqing and daddy, so she didn't Use the money to buy new clothes - my mother is the prettiest!"

When Shangguan Shengxian heard this, her expression was quite complicated. She was once so magnificent. As a Da Luo Jinxian, what kind of appearance do you want? But since she came to live in seclusion here, she has completely sealed her self-cultivation, and her appearance has become like that of an ordinary woman. She lives a mortal life. In just a few years, her face has been covered with the effects of daily necessities, rice, oil and salt. Gray, and the corners of his eyes were also engraved with traces of sweetness and bitterness.

Even her figure has become bloated, giving her the appearance of a middle-aged and fat woman.

If her former opponents knew that she looked like this now, they would probably laugh out loud, right?

"Changqing, does Wang Yaya often bully you?"

However, she did not care about her own beauty and ugliness, but was keenly aware of it.

"No, it's just that she said our family is too poor and that I can't afford to marry her in the future... Huh, I don't like her at all. I'm ignoring her this month."

When Shangguan Shengxian heard this, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. These two children often played together, played house and other things, and also talked some nonsense, which was quite funny.

But before her smile fell, there was already an inexplicable look of guilt in her eyes, and there seemed to be a trace of struggle and hesitation. Finally, the dust settled and she said: "Changqing, today is your first birthday. Mother brought you here." I just buy you delicious and fun things on the street. Whatever you want, my mother will buy it for you!"

A light shot out of Xiao Changqing's eyes: "Really?"

"Yes, don't you want to eat braised pork? And sweet and sour carp, right? Last time we went to a restaurant for dinner, you liked it so much..."

"No, mother, I want to eat fried potatoes."

Xiao Changqing said sensibly, "Well... add a small piece, just a small piece, stinky tofu!"

Shangguan Shengxian touched his head and said, "Okay, mother, go buy it for you."

She took Little Changqing into the vegetable market, and sure enough she bought some potatoes first. Seeing how fresh the pork was today, she couldn't help but negotiate with the stall owner for a long time on the sky-high price, and finally bought a piece of pork belly, pretending to be happy. went up, looked back, and saw that Xiao Changqing had gone somewhere.

People were coming and going in the vegetable market, Shangguan Shengxian suddenly became anxious: "Evergreen!"

She shouted loudly and searched everywhere, but there was no trace of Xiao Changqing in the end. She ran out of the vegetable market and couldn't find him. She stamped her foot, gritted her teeth slightly, and hesitated whether to use her cultivation.

For many years, she has been hiding here, accompanying the reincarnation of Evergreen Immortal Lord. In order not to disturb him, she has gone into complete dormancy. Even while living in a small town, she has been teased and bullied, but she has endured it all. At this moment, she actually wanted to...

Use your cultivation!

"Mother!"

But at this moment, a childish voice sounded not far away. Shangguan Shengxian hurriedly turned her head and saw Xiao Changqing standing not far away. She hurriedly ran over and took Xiao Changqing into her arms. , then slapped Xiao Changqing’s butt twice and said, “Where have you run away!”

Xiao Changqing didn't cry, "Mom, the stinky tofu over there smells so good..."

Shangguan Shengxian glanced not far away, where a vendor was frying black stinky tofu. Her eyes were slightly complicated, and then she took Xiao Changqing's hand and went over to buy a large portion for Xiao Changqing.

Xiao Changqing was so happy that he went home with his mother. On the way, he obediently helped Shangguan Shengxian carry his things.

The mother and son returned to the alley and returned home.

"Woman, are you back?"

In a simple courtyard, under the eaves, an old blind man with gray hair and beard was lying on a chair, unable to even sit up, and asked feebly.

"Dad, mom bought a lot of delicious things today!"

Xiao Changqing ran over excitedly, picked up the cattail leaf fan next to him and fanned the old man, then added a piece of stinky tofu, put it in the old man's mouth, and said, "Dad, does it smell good?"

The old blind man chuckled, "Smells, smells so good... cough cough... cough cough cough..."

He was out of breath and coughed, and Shangguan Shengxian came over and said, "Changqing, help mother wash the vegetables, and I will take your father to drink medicine."

"oh."

Xiao Changqing obediently picked up the dishes and went to the kitchen. Shangguan Shengxian pushed the wooden wheelchair, led the old man into the room, and closed the door behind his back.

"Madam, I'm going to die..."

The old man spoke with difficulty. His blind eyes stared blankly at Shangguan Shengxian. His old hand stretched out tremblingly, placed it on Shangguan Shengxian's hand, and said, "I have wronged you."

"I'm sorry for you two..."

"There is no grievance, no apology, all of this is done willingly."

Shangguan Shengxian spoke, she lowered her head, looked at the old man, and said: "It's just little Changqing. He has been weak since he was a child. The doctor in the town said that he may not live to be ten years old..."

The old man cried feebly.

"I heard about a folk remedy that might be effective..."

"What's the remedy?"

"The folk prescription says that the recently deceased relatives contain many things. If the children eat them, they can cure all kinds of diseases..."

The old man suddenly held her hand excitedly and said, "Madam, I...use me!"

"Let little Changqing live, he is our only child, you must save him..."

He was so drained of energy and blood that he seemed unable to breathe. He held Shangguan Shengxian's hand tightly: "Give it all to him..."

The old man died slowly and no longer moved, but in his eyes that had been blind for many, many years, the turbid tears were still rolling down his cheeks...

…

Shangguan Shengxian asked Xiao Changqing to go to the study to write, and then she started cooking.

At ten minutes after dinner, she let little Changqing come out of the study. Little Changqing took a stack of yellow straw paper and said, "Mother, Changqing practiced the word Yong well today. I heard the teacher in the private school said that as long as you can write You can also write the word Haoyong and other characters..."

Shangguan Shengxian touched Xiao Changqing's head and said, "You are so good."

"Hurry and sit down and eat."

Xiao Changqing said: "Mom, where is dad? Doesn't he come to the table to eat?"

"Yes, he is too tired. He needs to rest. Mom will bring him to the room later."

Little Changqing nodded, and then took a deep sniff. The braised pork, braised lion's head, fried potatoes, etc. on the table were rare and rich. Little Changqing was so greedy that he picked up a meat dumpling and put it on the table. Shangguan Shengxian put it in the bowl and said, "Mother, you have worked hard. Mother eats meat."

Shangguan Shengxian was startled for a moment, but he took it back and said, "Mother, I'm not feeling well today. I can't eat meat. Changqing, I made it for you today."

"Eat quickly, or my mother will be unhappy."

With a straight face, little Changqing rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, then Changqing is ready to eat!"

He started to eat, and the meatballs went into his stomach one by one. Xiao Changqing was going to eat a few, so he said he was full and left them for his mother, so that her mother would have no excuse. But for some reason, he was a little Involuntarily, one after another, in a short time, they finished the whole plate of meat dumplings.

"It's so good, mother..."

Xiao Changqing raised her eyes, looked at Shangguan Shengxian, and said, "Mom, I can't eat anymore."

Shangguan Shengxian was looking at him, his eyes were calm and cold as never before.

"Mother... you are angry because Changqing is too greedy. Please don't blame Changqing, okay?"

He tugged on Shangguan Shengxian's sleeves. The coldness that had finally gathered in Shangguan Shengxian's eyes gradually cracked. Finally, he sighed slightly and said, "Mother, I don't blame you. I'm not sleepy. I'm sleepy." Just go to sleep."

Xiao Changqing did feel very sleepy. He nodded and said, "Mom, you have to eat all the braised pork. I won't like the next meal. Xiao Changqing is a picky eater!"

Seeing him return to her room, Shangguan Shengxian had an inexplicable look of pain in her eyes. It had been clear that for so many years, she had been planning for today and everything would be successful, but she felt inexplicably reluctant and unbearable. …

"The road to immortality is narrow..."

She whispered, with a faint magic light in her eyes, and she stayed here until Xiao Changqing almost fell asleep, then she got up, pushed the door open and entered Xiao Changqing's room.

He falls into a coma, unconscious and incapable of pain...

With this thought in her mind, she walked over, uncovered the quilt on the child, and gently untied little Changqing's clothes.

From Xiao Changqing's arms, a ball of cloth was suddenly pulled out. It was a piece of beautifully colored floral cloth.

Shangguan Shengxian was suddenly startled.

In his sleepy state, Xiao Changqing seemed to sense something. He held the floral cloth in his little hands and murmured: "Mom, she is the most beautiful in colorful clothes... I still have two pennies left in my pocket money. I can't afford stinky tofu." …”

Shangguan Shengxian's whole body suddenly trembled. She stared at the sleeping child on the bed. His peaceful face and Shangguan Shengxian's raised hand seemed to be pulled by thousands of mountains, unable to fall down at all...

"The road to immortality is narrow. All these are just my inner demons...just my inner demons. After I slay them, I will see the great road!"

She raised her hand again.

Put it down again!

Lift it again!

Letting go again...

If Li An were to see this scene, he would probably be extremely surprised. He would never have imagined that the ruthless and calculating Shangguan Shengxian would one day be so tender-hearted and have such thoughts!

After a long stalemate, Shangguan Shengxian finally slowly lowered his hand and said: "It is difficult to overcome the inner demons. It is indeed not easy for me to kill you with my own hands."

"Out of sight is out of mind. I'll come back after you die!"

After turning around and going out, Shangguan Shengxian closed the door tightly and locked the door to the yard.

Shangguan Shengxian is very rational. She knows that she gave birth to a child for the reincarnation of Evergreen Immortal Lord. After all, her maternal nature is in chaos, so it disturbs her mind and her murderous intention is weak, but she will not be hindered by such things.

Shangguan Changqing will starve to death here.

She comes back again.

She walked onto the street, which was crowded with people. She found a tea shop and ordered a bowl of tea to drink. Various shouts from the street reached her ears.

"Rattle, the bones of spirit beasts are made into rattles..."

"Sugar-coated haws……"

"Stinky tofu..."

She felt a little upset for no reason. She took a sip of bitter tea, but her heart was still restless.

"wrong!"

Suddenly, Shangguan Shengxian frowned slightly. If it was simply because of Shangguan Changqing, she shouldn't be so upset...

She seemed to be alert to something. Suddenly, her aura suddenly changed. The middle-aged woman drinking inferior astringent tea in the tea shop suddenly had thousands of mysterious qi appear, and the Great Luo Immortal Light lingered, making all the tea drinkers around her , and even the cultivators in the entire town were instantly shocked!

But at this moment, two rays of fairy light appeared in Shangguan Shengxian's eyes, piercing through the dark blue sky.

Wherever her eyes went, it was clear that there were Daluo-level strong men guarding the sky on all sides of this town. She...

Already surrounded!

"not good!"

Shangguan Shengxian's heart jumped fiercely, and her figure disappeared directly from the tea shop, and then appeared in the small courtyard of her home.

In the small courtyard, there is already another man.

The man held a small blood-colored sword in his hand, and the sword blade had passed through Xiao Changqing's heart. Xiao Changqing's body was slowly withering, turning into a small mummy!

An Li!

He's already here.

He took matters into his own hands.

Killed Shangguan Changqing!

His eyes were so calm and cold as he looked at Shangguan Shengxian and said, "This sword belongs to Grand Priest Li An."

"You once killed his beloved wife Gu Hong. Today, I will avenge him -"

As the leader of the Dao Sect, there was no trace of guilt on his face for killing children, only an unparalleled determination and calmness!

And Shangguan Shengxian...

At this moment, her delicate body was trembling inexplicably. She stared at the withered corpse. In her eyes, turbulent emotions erupted like a volcano. It was unspeakable sadness!

Hot tears fell from Shangguan Shengxian's eyes for the first time!

…

Good night.
