Chapter 59 Immortal Mortal
After hearing what Chen Shan said, Chen Yao realized that she had been standing at the door talking to her father and senior brother Wu. Her face turned red and she quickly stepped aside.
Chen Shan stepped into the entrance hall first, followed by Wu Tao. He looked left and right, but he couldn't find the shoe cabinet for changing shoes. It suddenly dawned on him that the shoes they were wearing were magic weapons and would not be dirty at all.
‘It was the first time in this life that I entered someone else’s home, and I almost forgot that the world was different. ’
Wu Tao sighed inwardly and looked at Chen Yao's feet unconsciously. Chen Yao's feet were wearing the same pair of spiritual travel boots that he had refined.
Wearing it on Chen Yao's feet makes it even more beautiful.
Chen Shan also noticed his gaze, glanced at it, and couldn't help but admire: "Ayao looks really good in her Lingyou boots."
If Chen Yao had listened to her father praising her beauty on weekdays, she would have liked it, but at this time Wu Tao was present. Although he was his father's disciple, it was still the first time he met a strange young man, so Chen Yao was overjoyed. He was also a little shy and shouted: "Dad..."
Chen Shan laughed and said, "Why are you so shy, Ayao? These spirit-traveling boots were made by your senior brother Wu."
"Is it refined by Senior Brother Wu?" Chen Yao immediately opened Kazilan's big eyes when he heard this, "Senior Brother Wu is already a first-level and fifth-level weapon refiner at such an age?"
Chen Yao was shocked. She knew that Wu Tao must have some merits if he was so young and so valued by his father.
But when the level of weapon refining reached level one and level five, she didn't think about it at all. It wasn't because she was petty, but because she had a long-standing inherent mindset towards weapon-refining masters.
Looking at Chen Yao who looked shocked, Wu Tao felt proud, but did not show it on his face. He said modestly: "It's just a fluke."
Chen Shan shook his head and said: "This is not a fluke... Let's go to the hall and sit down and say, Ayao, go make a pot of good tea. Wu Tao and I have been walking all the way and we are also thirsty..."
"Okay, Dad!" Chen Yao turned around and went to make tea.
Wu Tao followed Chen Shan and heard Chen Shan shout loudly to Chen Yao who was heading to the kitchen: "You think dad accepts anyone? It's precisely because Senior Brother Wu is already a first-level and fifth-level master at such a young age." , I just accepted it.”
"Yes, yes, daddy has a sharp eye and can see people accurately!" From the kitchen, there was the sound of water and Chen Yao's playful compliments.
After receiving his daughter's praise, Chen Shan was very happy. He asked Wu Tao to put the baggage on a chair aside, and then asked Wu Tao to sit at the table: "Wu Tao, master's home is your home, don't be so restrictive... ...Ayao, you are right. There are so many first-level and seventh-level weapon refiners in the Weapon Refining Hall, and there are two first-level and eighth-level weapon refiners. None of them discovered your senior brother Wu’s talent. I was the only one who discovered it. That’s not right. My discerning eye?!..."
"Daddy is so awesome!"
"Master is amazing!" Wu Tao only realized Chen Shan's ass-loving side today, and imitated Chen Yao in trying to flatter him.
Chen Shan was greatly relieved. He was flattered by Wu Tao and Chen Yao in turn. A scene from many years ago suddenly appeared in his mind. Ah Shun and A Yao also made him happy in this way. But in the next moment, Wu Tao's face changed to another one. When he opened his face, he couldn't help but darken, but then he thought that this was an occasion that he should be happy about, and he laughed again.
However, there was a hint of regret in this smile.
Chen Shan and Wu Tao were chatting casually, and Chen Yao quickly came over with a tea tray and poured tea for Chen Shan and Wu Tao: "Dad, Senior Brother Wu, drink tea!"
"That day when my father asked someone to bring me these spiritual travel boots, I thought they were made by my father. But seeing the novelty of these spiritual travel boots, I felt that they were not something that my father could refine. Today I found out that they were made by Wu. Refined by senior brother, A-Yao likes this whimsical idea very much." Chen Yao glanced at the spirit-traveling boots under her feet. They were specially made of sea spider silk to make decorative prints, which were very beautiful.
When Chen Shan heard this, he thought it was very serious that my old father would fall out of favor just one day after his good disciple came here. He pretended to be displeased and said: "You young people only like these superficial things, magical weapons, but what matters is practicality. "
"Master taught me this." Wu Tao looked like he had been taught.
Chen Yao also laughed happily and said: "Yes, yes, dad is absolutely right."
After saying that, the two looked at each other and quickly turned away. Chen Yao turned around and said, "I'll clean up the room for Senior Brother Wu."
Although he was recognized, Chen Shan always felt a little empty in his heart. He looked at Chen Yao's leaving figure, turned to Wu Tao and said: "When A Yao helps you clean up the room and take a rest, I will give you the weapon refining technique." Taught to you."
Wu Tao said: "Listen to Master...Master..."
Just when Wu Tao was about to speak, he heard Chen Yao's low crying voice coming from the room. Wu Tao was startled and looked at Chen Shandao: "Master..."
Chen Shan looked lonely, sighed, got up and walked to the room where Chen Yao was. Wu Tao followed. When he got close to the door, Chen Shan sighed again, then stretched out his old hand and slowly opened the door.
The layout in the room is very simple, with a large bed and a rectangular table under the window. There are a lot of sundries on the table, including piles of scrapped forbidden practice spirit boards, and some children's toys...
The afternoon sun shone dimly on Chen Yao's body through the window screen. Chen Yao rested her hands on the forbidden spiritual board, her shoulders twitching, and her crystal tears dripped on the spiritual board, creating a silvery glow.
"Ayao..."
Chen Shan gently called Chen Yao's name.
Chen Yao turned her head, her eyes were moist, and the tip of her nose was a little red. She asked, "Dad, do you want to put these away?"
Chen Shan was silent for a moment, then sighed heavily: "Put it all away, it's been so long..." After that, he turned and returned to the hall, but when he returned, his steps seemed to become older.
Wu Tao didn't understand this scene, so he could only watch silently, not daring to express his opinion easily. He followed Chen Shan back to the hall, and when he saw Chen Shan's cloudy old eyes were a little moist, he could only shout: "Master..."
Chen Shan heard this, looked at Wu Tao, forced a smile, and said: "It's okay, that room is actually occupied by A Yao's brother. However, seven years ago, A Yao's brother died in an accident."
"Ashun is seven years older than Ayao and has been good to Ayao since he was a child. Therefore, Ayao and her brother have a good relationship."
"My life has been hard. I have been running around everywhere in order to survive. I didn't find a Taoist partner until I was ninety. The following year, Ah Shun was born. I had a son at that time, so I was extremely happy. Plus Ah Shun has a talent for refining weapons. I can train him to become a weapon refiner in the future."
"A-Yao was born when I was ninety-eight, and her mother also died in childbirth due to childbirth. Her mother was not very talented in Qi refining, but she was only at the second level of Qi refining. With her age, she lost too much energy during pregnancy... "
"Fortunately, Ayao has inherited my Qi refining talent. Although she has not inherited my weapon refining talent, but she has not inherited her mother's Qi refining talent... She has also reached the second level of Qi refining this year..."
"Hey, if Ah Shun hadn't died, he would have been the same age as you..."
Wu Tao listened carefully and realized that his master's family still had such a painful past. He sighed in his heart. Most casual cultivators suffered, and so did the original owner. He was still an orphan, without a father or a mother...
Thinking of this, he solemnly promised: "Master, don't worry, I will take care of you and Junior Sister A Yao in the future."
From now on, we are a family.
He promised this in his heart.
"Good boy, I believe in your character. In fact, over the years, A-Yao and I have gotten used to it and have let go of it. However, when we get emotional, we will inevitably think of the past..."
Chen Shan murmured, and then smiled bitterly.
"I've been cultivating immortality all my life, and now I've discovered that I'm still no different from ordinary people..."
In response to this sigh, Wu Tao said silently in his heart: "Perhaps immortality is the only way to be considered a true immortal?!"
