Chapter 962 After Li Qi disappeared
Many years have passed, and the seasons reincarnate, always unchanged.
It's summer now.
Summer always seems melancholy, hot and noisy.
The sky was clear and cloudless, extremely quiet, and various insects could be heard outside.
The sun gave off a strong white light, and there was an uncomfortable heat in the air, giving off the scent of summer.
The terrain of Xuanjing Mountain is steep, so ever-changing clouds often flash over the top of the mountain, thus revealing their majesty in the sunlight.
The mountain god of Xuanjing Mountain is named Niuhuang. He is a fifth-level cultivation person and is a famous powerful person in the surrounding area.
He would often tell other people around Xuanjing Mountain not to go up the mountain because it would disturb the goddess on the mountain.
It is said that there is a goddess on the mountain with short hair and a beautiful face. She looks like a brilliance, as bright as white light.
Many years ago, in Wu County, there was a man named Zhang Zhi whose wife was seriously ill. He secretly climbed Xuanjing Mountain to pray for God. On the top of the mountain, he saw a woman standing on the southeast corner of the cliff.
He walked over and found that there was only a stone there, shaped like a person.
Zhang Zhi was so discouraged that he had to say to Shitou: "You have human form, are you a god? If you can cure my wife's illness, I will thank you heavily."
That night, he dreamed that someone said to him: "I will bless you."
At that time, his wife gradually improved, so Zhang Zhi built a temple at the foot of the mountain, where he practiced witchcraft.
Legend has it that he later wrote a volume of pulse classics, a volume of soup prescriptions, and a volume of pill prescriptions, which he would teach to anyone who was willing to learn. His disciples traveled around, saving lives and curing diseases, and they were all very miraculous and efficacious.
Someone told this matter to the real mountain god Bezoar of Xuanjing Mountain, saying that Zhang Zhi's temple was at the foot of Xuanjing Mountain, but he did not worship the mountain god, and asked the mountain god to punish him for his sins.
Bezoar severely rebuked the informer and said: "He is there to treat illnesses and save lives. Even if he doesn't worship me, so what? If he does evil, even if he worships me, I will punish him the same way."
Later, when people heard about it, they all praised the mountain god for being wise.
However, for some people, these are irrelevant matters.
One day, a man and a woman suddenly appeared on the mountain.
The femininity in it is gloomy, so I seem to see the dark stones under the desolate promontory illuminated by the reddish light of the endless day.
She was almost like a corpse lying under the shroud of ice and darkness during the long dark nights of winter.
The man is just the opposite, gentle and elegant, like the sunshine in spring, calm and handsome. Only when he stands next to the desolate woman can he dispel the gloom in her.
They reached the top of the hill and the woman shouted: "Mother..."
Yes, these are Li Shiwei and Shitou.
After so many years, Li Shiwei is still at the fifth level, but Shitou has reached the fourth level.
Shitou has long since learned to transform into human form, but usually, he still prefers to appear in his own body, that is, the state of Shanxuan Yu.
But this time I came to Xuanjing Mountain for something important, so of course I needed to dress up and not be as lazy and casual as usual.
Shen Shuibi appeared here quietly, looking no different from before. She said, "Why are you back? Don't you have something serious to do now?"
"Mom, I'm getting married. I hope you will host it this time. After all, my father is not here." Li Shiwei said.
"Empress, we are almost ready. We hope to get your blessing this time." Shitou took a step forward and saluted.
Shen Shuibi sighed: "Can't you wait until your father comes back?"
Shitou smiled bitterly: "Mother, we just waited until now—"
Li Shiwei glared at Shitou, pulled him back, and said, "Then wait..."
However, Shen Shuibi suddenly said: "Forget it, no need to wait, you have been waiting for a long time, right? This time the stone broke through the fourth level, you just came to me. If you are allowed to go back, my mother will do too much." It doesn’t look like that. Where and when?”
Li Shiwei handed over a letter and said, "It's all written here, and... mother, Lachi, he said he has always wanted to visit you."
"Lachi...will you invite him to your wedding banquet this time?" Shen Shuibi asked.
"Of course. Laqi is a disciple of the great witch. How could he not be invited?" Shitou nodded.
He has a very good relationship with Lucky. To be precise, he is the second most helpful character in Lucky's growth.
The first, of course, is Li Qi.
Although Li Qi rarely interfered with Lucky, Li Qi gave Lucky the most important thing, which was a background.
Many times, this background can solve countless problems. As a master of Shaman Mountain, Laqi has massive resources to call upon and countless knowledge to learn.
But Li Qi didn't actually plan Laqi's learning path. He basically just let it go, as if he didn't remember how he secretly scolded Zhu Fengdan.
After all, Lucky, like Li Qi, needs to be understood by himself. Taking him around to teach him will easily make them tremble and worry every day, suppressing their spirituality.
Imagine if Zhu Fengdan took Li Qi with him to teach him every day. With Li Qi's temperament, he might really be scared to death on the way. He is a cautious person and must be prepared for everything. , if he was not forced to do anything, Li Qi would definitely not take the risk.
Anyone who has dealt with Li Qi knows that this great witch will not take risks as long as there is a slight possibility. When he stays by the great witch's side, he will definitely do whatever the teacher says.
As for Lucky, although his personality is slightly different, he is almost exactly the same as Li Qi.
Freezing is the most suitable for this kind of people, otherwise, they will only grow up like teachers step by step, and will not be able to inherit and create the path of teachers.
Shitou also knew that it was precisely because of this... that the empress in front of him didn't want to see Lucky.
Every time I see Lucky, I will think of the great witch.
The disciple and the master are still too similar, just like Changqin Da Lezheng will think of Zhu Fengdan every time he sees Li Qi. It is precisely because of this that Changqin helped Li Qi several times.
"Speaking of which, Lachi was born because of the empress and True Lord Yang Ning. In a sense, he and the empress are also half-related." Shitou said at the right time.
Shen Shuibi said nothing more: "Okay, I will go there then."
Shitou breathed a sigh of relief: "Then, let's go to Zhenjun Yang Ning first, please take care of yourself."
"Mom, let's go find our aunt. Why don't I ask her to come here first, and you and your aunt will come together?" Li Shiwei asked.
"That's fine, I haven't seen Yang Ning for a long time." Shen Shuibi replied.
"Then mother, let's go first." Li Shiwei said, and then left here with Shitou.
The young couple did not leave directly, but took a stroll in their common hometown for a while.
Shitou was also born in Xuanjing Mountain. He was a big local stone. He was originally stupid and could not learn a word for thousands of years. Later, Li Shiwei broke the stubborn stone outside and exposed the mountain xuanyu inside. Let it 'enlighten'.
Li Shiwei was also born in Xuanjing Mountain. When she was born, her temperament was not as dull as it is now. She was still a very lively girl. She ran around on the mountain every day and rode a bezoar all over the mountain.
At that time, there were only seven grades of bezoar.
Nowadays, time has passed, and the two young people are no longer young, but compared to their parents' generation, they are still full of hope and not so pessimistic.
Sometimes, the younger generation is actually not that sensitive to the pain of the older generation.
Li Shiwei sometimes thinks of her father, but she still has no real feeling.
Because her father often leaves, and when he comes back occasionally, he will bring some tests and questions. If the answer comes, he will appear very happy. Even if the answer does not come, he will not get angry, but let her go back and think about it. think.
Therefore, when Li Qi left this time, although she knew that he was going to re-educate, Li Shiwei surprisingly did not feel sad. Just like countless times in the past, her father only left temporarily and would always come back.
Although rationally she knew that this might not come back, emotionally she was not very sad, so she was not afraid of coming into contact with Li Qi's things.
Li Shiwei helped pack the luggage that Shen Shuibi was too timid to pack, and her father's personal belongings. She sorted them one by one and put them in mustard bags by category.
When she was sorting it out, she didn't think there was anything to be sad about, so she couldn't understand why her mother lost her composure and became like a shrunken ball.
It really looked like she had transformed back into her original form at that time.
Li Shiwei also has this form, but she doesn't like it. The rabbit form seems too weak, and her character is not like that.
However, no matter what the personality is, the body is still the same. For example, Li Shiwei's eye color will switch between black and silver. The specific change mainly depends on the moon phase at that time, and it is rotated according to the time of the lunar energy. of.
Li Shiwei and Shitou were wandering around the house. The mountains and forests around Xuanjing Mountain were very beautiful. On the distant view covered with clouds and mist, mountains with strange colors appeared. Although they were distant and blurry, they often saw many gorgeous mountains under the sunlight. landscape.
Although these views only appear for a moment from certain angles, they are never seen again.
But that’s the beauty of the scenery, isn’t it?
Side by side, they walked down Xuanjing Mountain. Next to the human settlements around Xuanjing Mountain, there were very hot fields, and many butterflies with blue wings were flying on the tree-lined road.
Summer is a good time for pollination. There are flowers everywhere, showing the vigorous vitality in the Wushen Mountain area. The source of heaven and earth is extremely abundant, and all living beings shape this nature in their own way.
The young couple came to the ancestral temple outside. There are various inscriptions engraved here. Some shamans practice, read, do some work like doctors here, and also carve statues for sacrifice, such as dragons and other auspicious things. Beasts, even monsters and the like, the most conspicuous ones are of course the statue of the mountain god bezoar, as well as all kinds of strange flowers and plants that were picked.
It is more like a garden than a temple.
Shitou and Li Shiwei enjoyed the tranquility of returning to their hometown. They chatted about how to arrange their wedding banquet and who to invite.
Mainly Li Shiwei was talking, but Shi Shi was actually a gentle person who was good at listening.
But occasionally, Shitou would suddenly interject and tell some insights, which would usually be recognized by Li Shiwei, because Shitou did make suggestions after careful consideration.
The two people just discussed the future. For them, the future is full of light and joy. Although there are still glooms in the past, the young people's eyes are always forward.
Walking in her hometown, in a deserted place, she would sometimes kiss him secretly, lovingly placing her fresh lips, which were not yet good at doing such things, on her fiancé's lips.
Shi Shi, who always smiles gently and is calm and composed, will panic only at this time. He can't always cope with Li Shiwei.
The wind and sunshine fell softly on them, and the insects sang songs. This time, it happened that the songs came at just the right time.
Even the faint water vapor evaporating from the summer heat has turned into a charming scenery.
Shen Shuibi naturally saw all this, she saw it clearly.
She was happy that her daughter could come out of the haze, but she still felt suffocated when she saw her daughter and the stone like this.
This scene even made her gasp for breath with difficulty.
The water, air, and light that seem warm to the young couple all have a dull and unbearable atmosphere at the top of the mountain. Even the joyful chirping insects seem so harsh. The short happy time of these things seems to It is a mockery of Shen Shuibi's eternal life.
Shen Shuibi is like a large group of fallen leaves blown up by the wind. No matter how people grab and caress them, they can no longer fly.
But she stood up anyway.
You need to tidy up your clothes. You can't look like this at the wedding banquet, which will make your daughter feel depressed.
After a few hours, my daughter and Shitou left.
About a year later, Yang Ning came here.
She is still so carefree, and even though she has reached the fourth rank, it has not affected her character. She is still as lively as ever, and there are no long-term worries at all.
When she saw Shen Shuibi's appearance, she just frowned and took her to prepare to wander outside the territory for a while. Anyway, they were both fourth grade, and not many people dared to provoke them.
Li Qi's reconstruction was a secret, and only a few people knew about it, but his breakthrough to the second level was in full view of the public, so everyone knew that he was the wife of a second level.
Such wandering relaxed Shen Shuibi's mood, and sometimes she and Yang Ning could laugh together.
But sometimes when she is alone, she still feels that the world is a little turbid, dizzy, and confused.
She didn't feel sad.
Just a little groggy. (End of chapter)
