Chapter 199 Ending (Part 2)
"Wait a minute before you get sad."
Yu Xian gently let go of Master Liu, patted the soul flag on his waist, and called out:
"Fellow Daoist Yang, come out to work."
The soul of Master Wan Beast floated out, but he looked lonely as if he had just been hit.
Without waiting for Yu Xian to ask, he took the initiative and asked:
"You want her to live on forever?"
Yu Xian would not lock him in the soul flag except when he was practicing, and would not lock him in the soul flag at other times, giving him full freedom.
So he could see clearly what happened just now.
For this, he could only feel envious and jealous.
Yu Xian acted ruthlessly, singing and dancing every day. Almost every once in a while he would wake up from the soul flag and see different women leaving his room.
This kind of man actually has a woman who loves him so much that she wants to live even if she dies.
Such an obsession was so deep that even he had only seen similar things in classics.
Then he thought of his failed relationship again...
Suddenly feeling that his fate was screwed up, he gave his sincerity, but his fiancée stabbed him in the back, causing the family to be destroyed.
Yu Xian is ruthless in pulling out carrots, but there are people who love him to death.
"Please teach me, fellow Taoist Yang."
Yu Xian always has a good attitude when asking questions.
Master Wan Beast glanced at Master Liu, sighed and said:
"This matter is not difficult. Since her obsession has disappeared and she no longer has the power to rely on, then just give her new power."
"How to give her new power?"
"There are three strategies to choose from: upper, middle and lower. Which one do you want?"
"Please elaborate."
"Then let's start from the next step. The simplest way is to put her into the soul flag. The soul flag is a natural magic weapon to accommodate the soul body. With the power contained in the soul flag, her soul body will be alive again. A hundred years or so is not a problem."
"Ghosts also have a lifespan?"
"Nonsense, people have a lifespan, ghosts have a lifespan. If you become a ghost, you can live forever, and everyone is still practicing nonsense.
I think her soul is not very powerful and she is just an ordinary ghost. Her longevity is actually similar to that of a human being. If she wants to extend her life, she can only continue to practice the ghost way.
but……"
Master Wan Beast paused for a moment and continued:
"I have said before that the Soul Banner of Ten Thousand Beasts is a magic weapon of the Blood Demon Dao, containing endless blood, evil, resentment, and death...
The soul body enters and is corroded by the evil spirit day and night.
Although the power will become stronger as a result, the mind will also be consumed by the evil spirit day and night, until it finally becomes a thoughtless and evil soul full of evil energy.
This is why I must make a hundred-year agreement with you.
And this is the passive effect of the magic weapon and cannot be changed.
So this is the last resort. "
After hearing this, Yu Xian naturally did not choose.
He wants to keep Master Liu because he is looking for an opportunity to become an undead knight, not to play with the midnight ring.
If Master Liu turns into a fierce ghost, he will definitely look ugly. He will probably be the first to step forward to slay the demons and send her to transcendence.
"What is the middle strategy?"
Wan Beast Master said: "You still have some conscience, the best strategy is to accept her as a contracted ghost slave and nourish her soul with your spiritual power. Naturally, you don't have to worry about her dissipating."
However, there will be some burden on your soul, because each monk can only contract with a limited number of spiritual beasts, ghost slaves, soul servants, etc., and most people only have one.
In other words, once you accept him as a ghost slave, you will most likely lose the chance of a soul contract forever.
But there is also an advantage, that is, her soul body is too weak now, and with the nourishment of your spiritual power, even without the ghost cultivation technique, she can quickly break through to the realm of ghost general, which is equivalent to the realm of foundation building. "
Yu Xian was noncommittal and said calmly: "There is still a better way."
Mentioning this, Master Wan Beast immediately perked up and glanced at Yu Xian with ill intentions. Yu Xian's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
“Shang Ce and Zhong Ce are similar, the only difference is that she changes from a ghost slave to your symbiotic ghost spirit.
The so-called symbiotic ghosts also mean that two people sign a contract and live and die together from then on.
The advantage is that it will not put a burden on your soul, and it will also be good for your soul. Once her realm improves, it can also feed back your cultivation.
As for the disadvantages. "
Master Wan Beast said with great interest:
"The literal meaning of the word symbiosis means that if you die, she won't be able to survive, and if she dies, you won't be able to survive."
Yu Xian's heart skipped a beat, blaming himself for asking too much.
He has been practicing for so many years and has not even given birth to a son, so how could he leave such a fatal flaw to others.
But in this situation, how could he make a choice other than the best one?
He glanced at the expectant Master Liu without leaving any trace, and said righteously and resolutely:
"Don't say anything, just choose the best option!"
"Yueru treats me deeply, so what if I take the risk to live with her? Am I afraid that others will use her to threaten me, and then it will just be my death!"
How have I ever been afraid of death? "
Yu Xian's words awakened Master Liu and made her suddenly wake up from the romance of life and death.
Yes, she is so weak that she can't even protect herself, if someone catches her and threatens Senior Yu.
Do you really want Senior Yu to die with her?
Leader Liu quickly said: "Senior Yu, I have chosen this strategy. As long as I can stay with you for a little longer, I am willing to become a fierce ghost."
Yu Xian frowned and said, "Nonsense, do you know what a ghost looks like?"
As soon as he thought about it, a ghost with a green face and fangs and three hands floated out of the soul flag, and a foul smell of blood suddenly escaped from the air, making people feel sick.
This ghost is a rare humanoid ghost among the Ten Thousand Beast Soul Banners, and I don’t know where the Ten Thousand Beasts Master got it from.
He was almost starving to death, but after a hearty meal in the Demon Bee Forest, he regained his vitality.
"If you become a devil, do you still want to be like this?"
Leader Liu covered his mouth and exclaimed: "Are you so ugly?"
She said with a sad face: "Senior Yu, I'd better die."
Yu Xian knew that the heat was almost over, but he still stood on the moral high ground and said:
"Aren't you willing to live and die with me? Even if I really die for you in the future, it will be my choice now, and I won't blame you."
Leader Liu quickly shook his head and said: "No, Senior Yu, I want to be with you, but I don't want to drag you down either.
otherwise……"
She hesitated.
"What else?"
Yu Xian asked.
"Otherwise, choose the one in the middle. If you can become Senior Yu's ghost slave, I am also willing."
Leader Liu looked at Yu Xian cautiously and added.
"As long as you don't mind me dragging you down."
"That's it..."
It was difficult for Yu Xian to do the same thing, but he was also afraid that it would be self-defeating, so he reluctantly agreed:
"I've wronged you."
"Not aggrieved, not aggrieved."
Master Liu had a look of surprise on his face, and even his soul escaped faster.
"Fellow Daoist Yang, please teach me how to make a contract. Yueru won't be able to hold on for long."
Yu Xian asked Zhenren Wanshou.
Wanshou Zhenren watched Master Liu being played around by Yu Xian willingly, and his back teeth were almost broken.
Damn it, why did Yu Xian meet such a woman? !
Any woman with some intelligence should be able to see the duplicity that Yu Xian just said.
However, he also knew that business could not be delayed, so he soon passed on the method of contracting ghost slaves to Yu Xian.
"The contract method is very simple. The difficulty lies in cultivating it in the future. You can think about it yourself."
After saying that, Master Wan Beast retracted his soul flag and went to grieve alone.
After meeting Yu Xian, he realized how childish his previous treatment of women was.
Mudd, honest people deserve to be wronged!
Seeing Master Liu's worried look, Yu Xian smiled and stroked her slightly pale face.
"Wait a moment, and soon you will be by my side forever."
"Um."
Master Liu replied softly.
Thinking of her happy life in the future, she couldn't help but look forward to it, and she was momentarily crazy.
Wen Renyue, who had been watching, was also sincerely happy to see Master getting what he wanted.
But after she was happy, she couldn't help but look sadly at Yu Xian, who had already closed her eyes to meditate on the secret method.
This is also the man she loves deeply, whether it was before or now.
Just remembering her identity and responsibility, she turned and left silently.
She now has too many bonds with her on Yuezhen Mountain, and she cannot be as fearless as her master.
…
The fourth day.
Yu Xian tapped his back lightly and went down the mountain, leaving a girl who was still trying to talk at the top of the mountain and watched her return home in vain.
Originally, he didn't want to provoke Wen Renyue again.
She made it clear that she wanted to be a career-oriented woman, and she was devoted to the great road of revival of the sect, so how could he mess up their hearts so easily.
But there is something wrong with him, so he needs to be advised.
After being encouraged by Headmaster Liu, saying something about leaving a good memory for her apprentice, she suddenly became confused and went into someone else's room at night.
I originally wanted to find a time but pushed it away with the lame excuse that it was late and the door was locked.
It turned out to be a coincidence.
The door to the room was unlocked, and as soon as he opened the door and entered, a fiery body pounced on him in the darkness.
He was confused.
This was calculated by their master and apprentice.
But it's the hardest thing to accept a beautiful woman's favor. If he refuses at this time, he won't be a man. Besides, he doesn't want to refuse.
So for three days in a row, he didn't even get out of bed, just trying to revisit his old place.
There is a saying that the female apprentice is very well-maintained and has the true inheritance of her master.
Went down Yuezhen Mountain.
Yu Xian calculated that the time was almost there, but instead of going to Zhao's house to pick up Zhao Shiwen, he went to Zhaojiafang City first.
…
Zhaojiafang City, at the entrance of Li Mansion.
A handsome young man stopped and looked around with a thoughtful expression.
At this moment, a soft female voice sounded behind him.
"Brother, what's the matter with you standing in front of my house?"
Yu Xian turned around and saw a bright girl of fifteen or sixteen years old looking at him curiously.
"I'm here to meet an old friend."
He smiled gently. This girl had a kind face. She should be a descendant of Brother Li.
He also didn’t know that Brother Li and Sister Wang had several more children after he left the Zhao family.
"Then why don't you go in?"
When the girl saw Yu Xian's smile, she felt inexplicably warm, as if she were facing an elder in the family.
Yu Xian shook his head and said, "I originally wanted to see you, but now I don't want to."
If he wants to build a force, he already has senior executives, but the middle-level backbone team is also indispensable.
Brother Li and Sister Wang were favored by him. They were also foundation-building monks. They had passed the test and had worked in Fang City for many years. They had rich experience and were just the right candidates.
But when he stood at the door of Li's house and felt the strong popularity, he realized that he had been wrong.
Time flows endlessly and will not stop for even a minute because of anyone.
He grew and changed, and so did everyone else.
The Li family, which was once a sparsely populated family, is now a medium-sized family.
How could Brother Li and Sister Wang abandon their family and career and follow him to an unfamiliar place to start a new business?
Of course, if he asks for someone by force, Brother Li and Sister Wang may not refuse, but they will definitely feel resentful and worried.
"Why don't you think about it anymore? I'll call whoever you're looking for. If it's an old friend, he will be very happy."
The girl stood in front of Yu Xian, quite enthusiastic.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need it."
Yu Xian smiled and touched the girl's head.
"Brother, didn't anyone tell you that girls' hair styles are not allowed to be touched?"
The girl pretended to be angry, but she was not really angry.
"Yes, yes, a girl's hairstyle is very important. I was wrong."
"You and I are destined, so I will give you this little gift."
Yu Xian turned his hand and found a high-grade magic weapon from the corner of the storage bag. It was a jade Xiao style magic weapon.
I don’t know which unlucky guy’s trophy it is.
The tax department has done a lot of work of confiscating families and exterminating families over the years. Naturally, the treasures should be reviewed by him, the chief executive, and all the interesting ones would be put into his pocket.
This jade flute was originally a casual interest of his, and he wanted to be arty and learn to play the flute.
After practicing for two days, I just idled away.
Before the girl could react, a high-grade magic weapon was stuffed into her hand. When she regained consciousness, the man was gone.
"What a weirdo."
The girl looked at the jade Xiao in her hand. She was from the Li family and her eyesight was naturally good. Just by inputting mana, she could clearly tell that this was a high-grade magic weapon full of spiritual energy.
So she added another sentence.
"He's just a generous weirdo, and he gives away high-grade magic weapons as soon as he says so."
She played with it for a while and suddenly realized it.
“Oops, I actually forgot to ask his name.
But such a generous monk is probably a major foundation-building cultivator, and he should be a friend of grandpa. You will know when you get home and ask. "
The girl returned home and talked about this matter when she had dinner with her grandfather in the evening.
Li Qianzhong, who was nearly ninety years old and had gray hair but a dark complexion, stared blankly at the jade Xiaoxiao in his granddaughter's hand, and suddenly asked a rich old lady beside him:
"I heard that Brother Yu came back with Director Zhao a few days ago."
The old lady is none other than Sister Wang.
She was only in the middle stage of qi training and had never taken the Dingyan Pill. After her qi and blood dropped after she turned sixty, her appearance began to look older. Now her appearance is no different from that of an ordinary mortal old lady.
"It should be Brother Yu. Besides him, who else can be so generous and casually give a high-grade magic weapon to an unknown little girl.
At that time, we thought we had to work as slaves to repay his kindness, but it turned out well. After being a master in Fangshi for so many years, we have never suffered any hardships. "
Sister Wang's face suddenly showed some memories, and she said with emotion:
"The most right thing I did in my life was to meet Miss Yulan, which changed my life and yours."
Brother Li, who is quite majestic in the hearts of the Li family and never asks for anything, slightly nodded and asked his granddaughter:
"Qianqian, what else did that elder brother say to you?"
The girl who was watching the whole process said with excitement on her face: "Grandpa, could it be that he is the Brother Yu that you often talk about, the chief steward of Shangyang City? I heard that even Master Jindan wants to obey his words."
As she spoke, she touched her head again and giggled.
"I thought Manager Yu was so majestic, but I didn't expect him to be so gentle. If I had known, I would have let him touch him more and recognize him as a big brother.
Let’s see who dares to go against me in the future. "
"No matter how big or small! I want to call you Grandpa Yu."
Brother Li scolded.
The girl stuck out her tongue and said nonchalantly: "Obviously he is so young and not old at all, so I will call him big brother."
She raised her jade Xiao and forcefully defined:
"This is the token that big brother gave me. From now on, I will be the person in charge of General Yu."
As she said that, she ran out in a hurry.
"This girl."
Brother Li smiled bitterly.
"Okay, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. It is also her blessing that Qianqian met Brother Yu, so we don't need to interfere more."
Sister Wang knocked on her leg and said:
"I guess Brother Yu probably wanted to do something with us, and then he saw that our old bones were like this, so he didn't want to trouble us."
Brother Li grabbed Sister Wang's hand and looked at this woman who worked hard and accompanied him for half his life, with some tenderness in his eyes.
"You are not old yet, and I want to celebrate your 100th birthday with you."
"When I was young, I worked tirelessly for you, but I never saw you say a few nice words. Now that I am old, I have learned these disgusting things. Did a woman outside teach me?"
Sister Wang, on the other hand, does not understand the style.
Brother Li blushed and giggled.
He is a foundation-building monk with strong energy and blood. He is in the prime of life. There are many temptations outside, and there is no hope of improving his cultivation level. It is inevitable that he wants to enjoy himself and cannot control his belt.
However, in his eyes, those women were just tools to relieve his boredom, and he only had one wife from beginning to end.
Sister Wang also knew that her body was old and her skin was wrinkled beyond recognition. When it rained, her bones ached due to overwork in the early years. How could she stop the strong Brother Li.
Therefore, she turned a blind eye to his stealing.
Sometimes it's better to be confused.
"If I had known, I would have taken a Ding Yan Pill, otherwise I wouldn't have had you grow old with me, and you would have become an old man now."
Sister Wang's attitude towards aging is very natural.
Moreover, a Ding Yan Dan cost hundreds of spiritual stones, so she would only buy it if she was too poor and crazy.
But when she saw her appearance getting older day by day, she still felt a little regretful.
In order not to let her think too much, Brother Li did not use magic to maintain his body and let it grow old together.
Brother Li held Sister Wang's hand.
"An old man should match an old woman."
"Virtue."
…
Return to the flying boat in Yangcheng.
Zhao Shiwen stared blankly at the farther and farther scenery below, until she could no longer see it, and she still didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Yu Xian stood aside, letting the strong wind passing high in the sky blow against his body.
"Anyway, it will take a while before we leave. You can spend some time with Auntie."
Zhao Shiwen shook her head and said, "No need, I've finished talking about everything these days."
"In the hearts of the elderly, there are never enough things to say to their children."
Yu Xian said calmly.
Zhao Shiwen glanced at Yu Xian and said:
"Want to hear the story about my mother and me?"
Yu Xian smiled lightly and said, "If you are willing to speak, I am willing to listen."
"Thanks."
Zhao Shiwen's eyes showed memories and she said slowly:
"As long as I can remember, my father died, and my mother was a fierce woman. When I was a child, I was afraid of her and thought it was embarrassing to have a mother like her.
Later I learned that if a widow and her daughter were not aggressive, anyone would dare to bully her.
When I was eight years old, all my peers started practicing Buddhism, but I was the only one who didn’t know anything and played in the fields with mud every day.
It was my mother who made a big fuss in the ancestral hall and brought my dead father out again so that the whole clan could get to know him, and that gave me the qualifications to practice.
My mother's cultivation level is not high and she cannot guide my practice on weekdays. She can only tell me over and over again that hard work can make up for my shortcomings.
Fortunately, my qualifications were pretty good, and my ethnography teacher taught me seriously. Until I was twelve years old, I was among the best of my generation.
But after I was twelve years old, after I completed my spiritual enlightenment, I discovered that practicing cultivation is not just about qualifications, but also about resources.
I have parents who are in the middle stage of Qi training, late stage of Qi training, and even the legitimate sons and grandsons of my elders. Their daily food and drink expenses can allow me to practice for half a month.
They can always go to the masters in the clan for advice.
I can only practice the basic skills of the clan over and over again, and receive the meager subsidy given to me and my mother by the clan.
In order for me not to fall behind others, my mother stopped practicing cultivation very early. Even things like spiritual sand, we used them one by one.
But it still didn't work.
I gradually lost sight of everyone, except for one person who had a pretty face and was quite famous among my peers.
Haha, under the publicity of a group of brats who complained about grapes even if they couldn't eat them, I became a woman who was careless and frivolous.
I was only fourteen years old at the time.
Later, Uncle Dechun came back and became the steward of Yingxian Pavilion. With his help, I was selected into the list of talented people in the clan and went to Shangyang City.
In this way, I became a cleaning maid in my ancestor's mansion, while my mother rented a house in a shanty town to save a few spiritual stones.
In this way, my mother and I lived in a shantytown for seven years.
In the past seven years, I have thought about giving up countless times. Many people wanted my body, and the prices they offered were pretty good.
Fortunately, with the title of the legitimate daughter of the Zhao family, they didn't dare to use force.
The young master of the Lin family was just one of them, and our stupid young patriarch just sent me out at the wine table. "
Zhao Shiwen raised her head and looked at Yu Xian, with a soft light in her eyes.
"Then when I was desperate, I met the master."
Hearing this, Yu Xian touched his nose awkwardly.
He is no better than that young master Lin. He is always motivated by sex and very impatient.
"Since then, my life has undergone earth-shaking changes. I secretly brought my mother into the city and rented a house in the city.
My mother also changed at that time. She was no longer aggressive and her eyes became gentle.
Every time I go back to see her, she always urges me to leave, fearing that if I stay too long, you will have a problem with me.
In fact, I know that the master is very lazy and doesn't care about these little things at all.
Later, when I returned to the Zhao family, I was worried about my mother's safety, so I let her stay in the city until something happened to my ancestor and my mother and Uncle Dechun returned home.
At this time, I was already the leader of the Zhao family, and I and my mother wanted to take revenge on those who bullied us.
As a result, my mother refused. She said we were all one family and shouldn't worry about it so much.
I promised my mother, and then I sent the people who bullied us back then to the most difficult places to mine.
In fact, my mother has been very lonely in these years, so she raised so many chickens in the yard, and by the way, there is also a dog Wangwang.
But she never complained to me.
When I left, my mother said that the most proud thing in her life was having my daughter.
But I didn't even have the courage to look back at her. "
As she talked, Zhao Shiwen burst into tears.
"Master, am I being selfish?"
Yu Xian nodded: "That's right."
"But your master, I don't even have parents. I am an orphan when I open my eyes. I may not be able to empathize with you, but I can lend you a broad shoulder."
Yu Xian opened his hands and took Zhao Shiwen into his arms, letting his tears wet his clothes.
Separation is always the norm.
It is impossible for him to stay in Shangyang City for more than ten years and let Zhao Shiwen see the old man live for a hundred years.
Well, originally it was possible.
But it won’t be possible after killing Patriarch Lin.
Yu Xian looked at the clouds floating leisurely in the distance and thought to himself.
He is the most selfish person.
But this is who he is, and he will not be bound by anything!
