Ye Gui

The moon is cloudy and sunny, and people have joys and sorrows.The most rare thing in the world is not a rich and prominent family background, nor is it a vigorous love, but to be able to spend a lifetime with the one you love, and not regret it for life because of the wrong fate.

This is the case between us, ever since you rescued me who was dying at sea and brought me back to Shentian Island.When I woke up, I secretly vowed to repay your kindness, and when I found out about Shen Tiandao's desire to have an heir, the first thought that popped up was "That's great, I can promise you with my body".

Let me, a man, have such thoughts, Ah Qing, don't you understand my intentions?Why do you have to flirt with other heirs over and over again?

I came to Shen Tiandao with a purpose, but I also really love you!I know you like me too, otherwise you wouldn't change your face when other women approach me and talk to me.

I didn't understand at first why the men who landed on the island fell in love so quickly and stopped homesick.It's not because they can make peace with so many women on the island, and they don't have to be criticized by others, that they stay on Shen Tian Island wholeheartedly.

They are because...

The moment Lu Changhua saw Bai Qing, sand flew into his mind, and the sky collapsed. He went through it several times a day, and wanted to say to Bai Qing, like a monkey stuck in the crack of a rock, unable to jump out unless the seal was broken.

Bai Qiao hugged Bai Qing's waist coquettishly: "Mother, did you come to pick me up on purpose?"

Bai Qing kept her mind steady, as if she hadn't seen Lu Changhua, she said calmly, "Yes, I knew when you passed the lagoon, and I came down the mountain to meet you after evening class."

"These are the new heirs? There's no need to bring them up the mountain, let Lao Mu take them down..."

Bai Qiao said urgently: "Mother!" She was a little shy and whispered something in Bai Qing's ear.

Bai Qing smiled and said: "It's rare to have a man you like. Mother has been worried for so many years, afraid that you will be lonely in the future, and you will not leave any heirs to be looked down upon by the elders... OK! Take the man you like back home, tonight Let’s live on the mountain. Auntie can trust your vision about bestowing a marriage, and I will tell the elders tomorrow, and I will let you get married on a good day and auspicious day. Speaking of which one is favored by our Xiaoqiao?"

Her eyes swept over one by one, staying on Lei Yan's face, her smile froze, and her expression instantly became shocked.

"You!" She ran over and grabbed Lei Yan's arm, and asked excitedly, "Who are you, Sister Bai Wan?"

Lei Yan said bluntly: "She is my mother."

Bai Qing looked at him in disbelief: "You...is she your mother?" She asked anxiously, "What about her?" As she spoke, she looked for the crowd.

Lei Yan bowed his head and said: "My mother has passed away..."

Bai Qing stopped suddenly, turned around and said in a trembling voice: "Passed?" She seemed to be thinking about the meaning of these two words, and took a deep breath as if unwilling to understand after a long while, and then slowly exhaled, "It's also... 26 years have passed... If she is still alive, she will definitely come back, she said she will come back..."

Bai Qing lowered her head, the sadness in her tone could not be concealed, Bai Qiao walked over to support her trembling shoulders: "Mother..."

Bai Qing sighed deeply, and then patted her hand. She lost her composure for a moment, and then returned to the elegant and holy woman she had glimpsed when she descended the mountain just now.

The corners of her eyes were red, and she said slowly: "I made everyone laugh, please follow me up the mountain." She looked deeply at Lei Yan, "Please also invite some of you to spend the night in the temple on the mountain, I have something to ask this young master. "

Lei Yan and Bai Yin looked at each other, nodded and said: "Then disturb the Holy Maiden."

Bai Qing's white skirt dragged on the ground, and walked slowly up the mountain.Lu Changhua didn't dare to get too close, so he followed behind Li Jingzhu, and was stopped when he was about to take a step.

He said helplessly, "Old Mu..."

Lao Mu snorted: "Young Master Lu, please come with the villain."

He has been with the Holy Maiden and Miss Qiao for many years, and from the expression on his face, he knows that the Holy Maiden definitely does not want to see this man at this time.

Lu Changhua was blocked by him standing on the last step, and he couldn't get through even thinking about it.

Li Jingzhu came over and was about to speak when Lu Changhua said, "Little Zhuzi, it's all right, let's live with him at the foot of the mountain as a teacher."

"I'm with you." Li Jingzhu looked back at the little general, but he was even more worried about Lu Changhua. After all, Master was the target of public criticism on Shen Tian Island, so he followed them down the mountain.

The route up the mountain is built of bricks and stones, which are rough and rough. After years of trampling, the middle of the stone steps becomes smooth and smooth, and weeds are tenaciously drilled out of the cracks in the stones.Unlike the mountain roads of Baishan Mountain, which are cleaned by outer disciples every day, each level is neat and clean, but here is more of a natural and simple feeling.

On both sides of the mountain road are deep forests overgrown with weeds, and there are low flowering bushes among the pines and cypresses. When the night wind blows, the dark fragrance floats, which is the unique fresh taste of the island.

Thinking of his mother, the little general couldn't help feeling a little depressed, so Bai Yin poked at his arm, stretching out his right palm upwards.

"Huh?" Lei Yan stared at his palm in puzzlement.

There suddenly appeared out of nowhere a gardenia, the petals were pure white, the flower center was light yellow, and the five fleshy petals bloomed alternately, blooming brightly.

In the flower greenhouse of Butterfly Demon Luohua outside Yanming City, Hakuin once picked a flower for him, and he still thought it was a woman, but now this cute little flower like a chicken is inexplicable. He swept away the haze.

Just as he was about to take it, he was snatched away by a hand.

"What are you doing?" Lei Yan stared at the gardenia jasmine in Baiqiao's hand, and was about to snatch it back.

He didn't think about grabbing it, but just stretched out his hand.In a fight, Baiqiao is no match for him, and the flowers are delicate and delicate, so I'm afraid they will be damaged.

But Baiqiao dodged it, and pinned the flower behind his ear, making him even more charming and lovely: "Brother Baiyin, is this pretty? This gardenia is a flower for my sweetheart. It doesn't have stamens, so It's called 'Don't bother', which means that neither the flower giver nor the flower recipient can be bothering."

She looked at Lei Yan with a smile, and continued: "So I accept your flower, and I only like you in this life!"

The little general was about to be laughed out of anger: "Are all the girls in Shen Tiandao so shameless?"

Bai Qiao said: "Men in Dongzhou pursue women, and they are praised by the world as gentlemen and gentlemen. Why should I, a woman from Shen Tiandao, be scolded for being shameless when I pursue my sweetheart? I don't think it's me who is shameless, it's Mr. Lei, right?" ?As a man, you insist on pestering Brother Bai Yin, and you can’t have children with him, so why don’t you just let us go and fulfill us!”

Bai Yin stood up and said with a cold expression: "Miss Baiqiao, I have already said that I will only love Ah Yan and will not be with you. Please don't force others to be difficult."

Seeing that the three of them didn't follow, Bai Qing went down a few steps and happened to hear Bai Yin's words, so she continued to listen calmly.

"If the girl likes that flower, she can keep it, but it has no other meaning, it's just a flower." Bai Yin conjured up another flower and gave it to Lei Yan. The little general didn't want it, so he forced one Another one, the frangipani is in the arms.

This person can still play his temper like this, Lei Yan suppressed his laughter, deliberately lowered his voice and said: "Enough." But the corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising.

Seeing the two of them like this, Bai Qiao was so angry that he took down the flower and threw it on the ground and stepped on it: "What can I do better than him? He's a man, so what's the use of being pretty?"

Bai Yin said sternly: "Ah Yan is Ah Yan, the person I love, it has nothing to do with being a man or a woman, I can't respond to the girl's wishes, and I don't want to see Ah Yan feel embarrassed, if the girl mentions this again, Don't blame me for being merciless."

Standing behind Baiqiao, Bai Qing saw her daughter's back trembling, obviously angry and sad, she walked over and reprimanded: "Baiqiao, the holy land of the temple can't help but you are so nonsense! Come here quickly!"

There were tears in Baiqiao's eyes. She couldn't understand the relationship between these two people. In the Moyu Hall in Liecheng County, there were many Nanfeng people, but they were just for fun. She lived in Liecheng County for five or six years. I've never seen any man who was really moved by the little boy, and he just went home after having enough fun, and some even had wives and children, just for fun.

Bai Qing was a little distressed, her daughter had finally found a sweetheart, but she didn't expect this to be the case, she thought for a moment and then got concerned, took Bai Qiao's hand to comfort her in a low voice: "Leave it all to Auntie."

Entering the mountain gate, there is a pine forest. There are several mottled stone pagodas in the forest. The towers are coiled with rattan. After years of wind and rain, the stone towers are covered with moss. .

Bai Qing didn't stop holding Bai Qiao's hand, walking through the pine forest, her eyes suddenly opened up.Without the shade of the trees above the head, the stars in the night sky are shining like diamonds.

A long stone bridge ahead leaps between two mountains. On the four stone pillars at the head of the bridge is a stone-carved Neptune, with thick and long tentacles on the pillars. The base pillar under the bridge was swallowed by a giant beast. It's horror.The vertical wind in the abyss of thousands of feet under the stone bridge is strong, and there is no possibility of survival if you fall.

After crossing the stone bridge, the temples, palaces and houses are built according to the mountain. They are completely irregular, but follow the trend of the mountain, without any trace of destroying nature. Even towering ancient trees can grow in the temple, breaking through the roof of the temple. come out.

All the temples are not painted, and are all built of wood and stones. The majesty is full of awe of the world and survival.

"My lord saint." Bai Qing led them into the largest temple, where candles were brightly lit, and several women in white were waiting at the door to salute.

Bai Qing asked: "Where are the elders now?"

A woman in white clothes replied: "Elder Xin and Elder Yu have both fallen asleep, and Elder Lu said they are going to the altar."

"You all step back." Bai Qing nodded and ordered.She didn't want the elders to be around, she had something to ask Lei Yan alone.

The women in white all retreated respectfully.Seeing them walking away, Bai Qing dragged Lei Yan to sit on the mat on the ground, and asked gently, "What's your name?"

"My name is Lei Yan." The little general replied.

"Ah Yan, do you know who I am?"

The little general said: "I heard from Miss Baiqiao and Uncle Lu that the Holy Maiden is my mother's cousin, so she should be my aunt."

Bai Qing nodded: "Yes, girls born on Shentian Island all bear their mother's surname. It doesn't matter who the father is. Elder sister Bai Wan and I were both first-generation saintesses. Later, a saintess gave birth to two girls. Elder sister Inheriting the position of Saintess, the younger sister is not a Saintess, her spiritual power gradually becomes weaker than that of her elder sister, so she becomes a side branch. Let’s not talk about that, what is Sister Bai Wan..."

Lei Yan said: "Mother died of illness suddenly."

Bai Qing's heart beat violently, and it took a while for her to calm down. She seemed to be immersed in memories and said, "Has she been happy these years?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lei Yan replied with a smile: "Mother is very happy, she has a father, a sister and me, at least in my eyes, she is very happy every day."

Bai Qing smiled slightly and said: "That's good. My sister always wants to escape from Shen Tian Island. I just thought she was joking at that time. Why does the high-ranking saint always want to escape? What's wrong with the island? Here She is God, she is everything, she has inexhaustible spiritual power and the admiration of the world, what else is she dissatisfied with? I didn't understand until I became this saint..."

She looked at her daughter and stroked her hair: "Fortunately, I have Xiaoqiao, so I don't have to be forced to have children with a man I don't love..."

She looked at Lei Yan tenderly, all the people born on the island were girls, and sister Bai Wan actually gave birth to a boy, "It's a pity that you are a man... you can't inherit the position of saint."

She secretly made up her mind that if Xiaoqiao must inherit the position of saintess, at least let her and her beloved have children.

"Why did you come to Shen Tian Island this time?"

Bai Qiao suddenly shouted excitedly: "That's right! A Niang! Brother Bai Yin, he, he found Chi Jin Tong!"

Hearing the words Chijintong, Bai Qing's eyes widened immediately. Before she could cover Baiqiao's mouth, she heard a voice from the door: "Chijintong?"
