Longevity: The Flawless Dream

Feeling the vibration in Pingshan, Lian Wuxia rushed to the source to check, and saw that Lian Emei's face was covered with half a mask, and his expression was extremely cold, while Kuanglong's face was bruised and swollen, crying on the ground with tears and snot in his nose, Lian Emei unexpectedly It didn't mean to coax him at all.Her arrival must have broken something, Lian Emei walked away with a flick of her sleeves, but the cries of the Kuanglong stopped suddenly, and looked at the direction where Lian Emei disappeared in a daze, her face was covered with tears and snot. It looks pitiful.

Lian Wuxia brought water to wash his face, he stared at the reflection in the water for a long time, then suddenly turned his head to look at her, his eyes gleamed fiercely, but his face was filled with laughter and humor: "Hey, Xiao Wuxia, what do you think? Is uncle handsome?" As soon as she answered "no", he would pull out her eyeballs!The evil beast in Kuanglong's heart slowly grinded its minions, thinking about it, but saw that Lian Wuxia nodded without thinking.

Kuanglong paused: "Which one is more handsome, Uncle or that red-eyed rabbit?"

This time Lian Wuxia was slow to answer for a while, not because she was embarrassed, but after thinking about it, she realized that the so-called red-eyed rabbit was actually referring to Lin Wushuang.In all fairness, Lin Wushuang, with his handsome face, naturally set aside the savage-faced mad dragon by a thousand miles, but when it comes to being heroic and handsome...

Lian Wuxia categorically wrote: "You!"

Kuanglong took her unpretentious demeanor into his eyes, his eyes turned red, he laughed wildly again, and suddenly he thumped the ground and howled and cried: "Xiao Wuxia, you think Uncle is more handsome!" Why is my sister so blind, woohoo!"

One of Lin Wushuang and Kuang Long is his mother's good friend, the other is his mother's younger brother, and Yu Lian Wuxia has a half-teacher's kindness, but if there is any dispute between the two, she can't say anything when she is caught in the middle, so she has to sit down and sit down. Watching his uncle Qi Xiao from the sidelines, but Kuang Long was just in a daze for a while, and then disappeared.When he left, there was a look on his face that Lian Wuxia had never seen before. She didn't understand the meaning behind that look, and felt quite at a loss.

Later when Lin Wushuang came to visit, facing the mask on Lian Emei's face, he had the same look on his face.

After a long time, she realized that that kind of look is called hurt.

As a thing, love can be used as a medicine for killing people, or as a knife for killing people.For love, Kuanglong can often offend his own sister regardless of blood relationship; for love, Lin Wushuang can teach Kuanglong to uphold justice for his beloved woman;

Pulling out the famous mountain and Ling Jiuxiao made the legend of the fairy family admired by later generations, and also made two shocking legends of the rivers and lakes.

The evil pit stands, the Pingshan does not fall to the ground, and the mad dragon does not leave the gate.

Haoran lives in seclusion, Baiyun and Pingshan don't meet each other, the world and the sky are rare.

On the night of leaving Pingshan, Lian Emei stood on the top of Pingshan, overlooking the rolling sea of ​​clouds below.The light of the bright moon above her head cast cold and rigid lines around her, like a statue of a god carved in wood and stone.

Pingshan Lianyun has always been a person who knows what she wants very well. She pursues the Dao wholeheartedly, so she chose the most lonely road of immortality.For this reason, when she was a teenager, she resolutely became a monk regardless of her parents' reluctance. Knowing that her brother lost his father when he was young, she still refused to bring her to her side to raise her personally, but pushed her to be raised by an old servant at home.She cut off all the possibility of deep cause and effect with others, and set foot on the path in her own mind.

Thousands of years ago, she climbed to the top of Pingshan alone, full of pious understanding of the heaven and earth.Looking back for many years, so many people came and went, and now she is standing on the top of Pingshan again, but she is still alone facing this vast and boundless universe.

Not without ties.Blood relatives Kuanglong, mentor Xuanzong Patriarch, good friends Jin Bazhen, Hao Kunlun, apprentices Gong Zixuan, Jin Zhanzhan, and Lin Wushuang... are all concerns, but they are all like dust in the wind. Drifting without a trace, leaving only this clear and vast world, a person who is inseparable from each other.

There were thin footsteps behind him, but Lian Wuxia walked over quietly and stood beside her.Looking up at her elegant and lonely face in the lower half of the moonlight, and looking along her line of sight, seeing the sea of ​​clouds surging, reflecting the frost falling from the sky, there is a sense of grandeur and loneliness , I was in a daze.

At some point, Lian Emei looked at the clouds, but his hands stroked Lian Wuxia's hair on his forehead that was messed up by the wind.How long can this child who is always beyond her expectations be with her?

"Wuxia, you have practiced with me for more than six hundred years, do you understand what is the way of ruthlessness?"

Immortals are ruthless.This is what she told herself on the first day of practicing with Lian Emei, and it has been deeply imprinted in Lian Wuxia's heart all these years, even though she doesn't understand the meaning behind this sentence.Ning Mei thought for a moment, Lian Wuxia was still puzzled, but took Lian Emei's hand, and wrote a sentence in her palm stroke by stroke.

"Sentimental or merciless, flawless will always be by my mother's side."

Lian Emei finally shifted his gaze to her, and the moonlight shone into the deep eyes of the female congenital, reflecting a touch of emotion.

Lian Wuxia smiled at his mother, and wrote: "Wuxia is still unable to comprehend the true meaning of the ruthless way, but Wuxia will always go to the fairyland with her mother. Whether it is a human or a fairy, Wuxia will always serve her mother."

What are the seven emotions and six desires?No one had ever told her, so she just kept being ignorant like this, and she also felt that there was nothing wrong with it.She only knew that she was at her mother's side, and her heart was peaceful and calm. It was her biggest wish since she was a child to be able to live like this forever.It's just that a person's life is too short compared to the innate people who have realized the way of heaven. Only when they are in the same way can she always be with her mother. Because of this, she is practicing hard day after day.

In a sense, she did too.

Probably her talent in cultivating Taoism is indeed very good. Before she knew it, she had become the person who entered the congenital realm at the youngest age in the history of adversity and Taoism.It's just that this is an extremely enviable achievement in the eyes of countless ascetics. For Lian Wuxia, the biggest significance is that she finally has the qualification to be with her mother.

From the origin of her memory, she has been by her adoptive mother's side. Hundreds of years have passed leisurely, and she is still by her adoptive mother's side.Even in the future, when her adoptive mother flies up to become a fairy, she will follow her to the fairy world to serve her stepmother, by the side of this woman whom she has been so attached to since the beginning of her memory, until the end of eternity.

Lian Wuxia has always thought so, she has never realized that there is a word called separation in the world.Although she has lived for thousands of years, she has always been a child.

"Respectfully pray for the prosperity of the country and the people, the weather will be smooth, the time will be harmonious, the grain will be plentiful, and the world will be peaceful. The next time I pray for the good believers in the ten directions, the blessings and longevity will prolong, and each family will be prosperous, and the house will be peaceful. , Cultivation has a share, and there is no demon in the way. The faults of the three karma and six roots, and begging for forgiveness; the ancestors of the Nine Mysteries and Seven Patriarchs, Qi Chao Daoan. All who are in the light are blessed with silence. The ministers are sincere and fearful, and Jishou bows his head. "Every year on the first day of the year, she prays with holy piety in front of the Sanqing holy statue.

It may be a long time, but it feels like a few short years, and Lian Wuxia can't remember clearly—there is no time in the mountains, let alone she grew up in Pingshan, where the sense of time is vague, and she has no sense of time. The passage of time has completely lost the concept-in short, it has been a long time since Lian Emei created the perfect yin-yang diversion trick, and his cultivation base is great, and he is only a short chance away from ascension; With one arm, he was desperately trying to die, but he gave up after mediation by King Zhonglie, and retired to Qingmo, Gonglouxue's old residence in despair; after Jin Zhanzhan killed several fiancés, he finally asked someone to calculate a solution With her tough character who could bear her violent fate, she found Ebisu, a well-known doctor in Jianghu, and tied her home to marry her.

Lian Wuxia finally reached Jiji's age.Her life experience is unknown, so she simply counted the day when Lian Emei picked her up as her birthday, and calculated her bone age. Once her birthday passed, she had truly grown up.

"You go down the mountain." On her birthday, Lian Emei suddenly wanted to comb her hair once.Since Lian Wuxia learned to take care of herself, Lian Emei never combed her hair again, so Lian Wuxia was a little surprised, but after being surprised, she sat down happily, letting her mother comb her purple hair.Lian Emei combed her hair very carefully, carefully tied her misty purple hair into a bun, and inserted a wooden hairpin out of nowhere, and said this sentence in her usual calm and indifferent tone.

Lian Wuxia looked at her strange self in the mirror in bewilderment. She had been doing Taoist attire since she was a child, and this was the first time she tried dressing like a secular girl.

"Wuxia, your talent in cultivating the Tao is far superior to Zixuan and Zhanzhan, but there are some things that talent alone cannot make up for. If you blindly sit on Pingshan, your realm may not be able to improve in the future." Lian Emei Said, "If you really want to go to the fairyland with me, go to the mortal world for a while."

Lian Wuxia blinked, and although she was still ignorant in her heart, she still understood what the foster mother meant.

In this world, if there is unity, there must be separation. If you want to pursue permanent perfection, you must experience some shortcomings.Therefore, if you want to be with your adoptive mother for a long time, do you have to endure a short separation?

She nodded in agreement, and obediently went to pack her bags.She didn't have many things, and she tied them into a small bundle and carried them on her back. She took her by Qingya and bid farewell to her adoptive mother.

So on this day, she rode a deer and left Pingshan with a qin, two changes of clothes, a few bottles of medicine and some medicinal materials. Lian Emei stood at the end of the sea of ​​clouds and watched her leave, her blue Taoist robe was blown by the wind. Moving, as if wanting to blend into the boundless sky.

In fact, regarding this parting, Lian Wuxia always felt at a loss like a dream.She has lived in Pingshan since she could remember, and she has never really been to any place other than Pingshan alone when she left Lian'emei, and she has never really lived alone without her mother.So that when Lian Wuxia stepped down from Pingshan Mountain, her feet stepped on the real mortal soil, and the wind with the unique breath of the mortal world blew past her, suddenly facing the vast and boundless strange world alone. My heart is unprecedentedly confused and helpless.

She is like a country girl who has never seen the world, more like a newborn baby abandoned in the world, tremblingly looking at this completely strange world full of novelty.She stared blankly at the ever-changing clouds in the sky at the end of the horizon, watching them sometimes curled up like dragons, sometimes piled up stones, sometimes like human faces, until a drop of wetness fell on her body, she raised her head, and found that she didn't know when to raise her head. Unexpectedly, the rain clouds piled up all day long, but the sky in the direction I had been looking at just now was still full of colorful rays of light.

For half a day, there are heavy black clouds that imply the infinite power of heaven and earth, and for half a day, it is the beautiful and beautiful Lixia that robs the world of good fortune.This world of three thousand transformations is so mysterious and beautiful.

Lian Wuxia opened his arms and closed his eyes, embracing the enchanting rainy rays of the sky.

The author has something to say: In fact, Lian Wuxia is not aesthetically distorted, but her definition of "handsome" is distorted...

In fact, practicing Emei is not ruthless, she just went for a higher goal (become a fairy) from the beginning

The inspiration for watching the clouds flawlessly at the end came from a time when I went home and took a train. The world outside the window was vast. Half of the sky was as clear as blue, and half of the sky was covered with dark clouds and it was raining. Nature is really mysterious and beautiful.

Also thanks to Nanmu Gua's long-hearted mine

Note: I pray for the prosperity of the country and the people, good weather, good times and good harvests, and peace in the world.The next time I pray for good believers in the ten directions, that the blessings and life will prolong, and that all families will live in peace, and that each house will be peaceful.The faults of the three karma and six roots, and begging for forgiveness; the ancestors of the Nine Mysteries and Seven Patriarchs, Qi Chao Daoan.Everything in the light is blessed with silence.The minister is sincere and frightened, and Jishou pauses.
