"well......."

After Yun Anran left, Qin Shou sighed for several days in a row.

Life is unpredictable; the large intestine contains the small intestine, the small intestine contains feces, and within the feces lies peace and tranquility.

Who could have imagined that this cockroach, which loved to jump around and had an excessively tenacious vitality, would be gone so suddenly?

I still remember the first time I met Yun Anran, we became sworn brothers.

That was just a whim of Qin Shou, who was bored on the mountain. Of course, it was also because he had a good impression of Yun Anran.

Later, the two often drank, talked, and boasted, and discovered that they shared similar interests and even developed a sense of mutual respect.

By calculation, the two have known each other for over a hundred years.

Qin Shou had been cultivating on this mountain since he arrived, and he didn't know many people, let alone had any interaction with them. He truly regarded Yun Anran as a friend.

"Seeing the splendor fade away, all that remains is fleeting smoke; one might say he existed in this world, yet he is no longer here..."

Qin Shou lay back on the bamboo chair with his eyes closed, his fingers gently tapping the chair as he softly sang a song.

Sunlight bathed the mountaintops.

Under the old mulberry tree, the monk grinned at Qin Shou, revealing a set of snow-white teeth. Through the slits in his eyes, Qin Shou found those teeth incredibly glaring.

But when I opened my eyes to see what was going on, everything vanished as if in a dream.

The monk remained under the tree, his back to himself, gazing at the illusory world before him, occasionally shaking his shoulders with a "hehehe" sound.

Qin Shou shook his head, closed his eyes again, and began to hum a leisurely tune once more.

Nanning Xianhuang stood under the eaves, a gentle breeze ruffling her hair. She lowered her eyes in thought, recalling the conversation between the two of them under the peach tree, lost in thought.

......

Several months later.

Qin Beast exited its cultivation state.

I felt a bit down and couldn't muster the energy to practice.

So he stretched, lay down under the peach tree, opened "Mirror Flower Water Moon," and took a break from work.

"Little Fatty, pick me a basket of grapes."

Qin Shou called out to the chubby boy who was playing in the yard.

Little Fatty came running over, his big, adorable eyes wide with seriousness, and said, "Master, grapes are too sweet; eating too many is bad for your teeth."

? ? ? ?

Qin Shou looked at that earnest little face, reached out his little hand and pinched it hard, "Is it done now?"

"Master, I'm not lying to you. Look, Black Rabbit has lost one of its teeth."

"Black Rabbit must have knocked out that tooth when it went into the mountains to hunt two days ago and bit a hedgehog demon."

Qin Shou rolled his eyes at her, then slapped her little bottom.

"Go quickly, or I'll spank you!"

"Waaah~, sister, sister, Master hit me~~"

Little Fatty happily ran to the back mountain to complain to Da Mei.

Da Mei, who was sitting in the sea of ​​flowers weaving a wreath, asked, "What's wrong?"

The chubby boy whimpered, "My master wanted to eat grapes, but I told him they were too sweet and bad for his teeth. So he pinched my cheeks and patted my bottom..."

"Sigh... little sister, don't cry." Da Mei reached out her delicate little hand and wiped away the tears from Xiao Pang's eyes, sighing, "Little sister, after all these years, how come you still can't tell the difference between the big and small kings?"

"And also, tell your sister, are you saying this because you want to keep all the grapes for yourself?"

"Ah...ah! Sister, how did you know?"

The chubby boy, with his little feet crooked and head down, poked each other's little fingers.

"You, you."

Da Mei smiled and stuck out a finger to touch Xiao Pang's forehead.

"Little sister, please, I'm begging you! With your intelligence, you could see right through anyone on the whole mountain except for the black rabbit, even Yi Cheng could tell the difference. Don't use it on the master anymore, or there won't even be any grapes left to eat."

"No need, no need."

Upon hearing that even grapes were going to be gone, Little Fatty waved his hands in fright.

What exactly happened?

With my brilliant mind, how could I, the King of Koi, not even be fooled by my bad owner?

"well......"

Little Fatty sighed and put the small flower wreath that Da Mei had just woven on his belly.

"Oh, little sister, you look so pretty in that flower wreath."

"Ha, sister, really!"

The chubby boy pursed his lips, then laughed triumphantly.

She firmly believed her sister's words, which she had repeated thousands of times.

"Sister, can you teach me how to make a little flower wreath?"

"???" Da Mei hesitated, but looking into her younger sister's big, expectant eyes, she nodded and said:

"good. "

This is the 217th time I've taught my younger sister to choreograph.

......

"The pianist, move on."

"This artist is just average, let's move on."

"Hmm? There's another person playing the flute! Oh, so it's this kind of flute. I won't look, let's move on."

"Calligraphy, chess, push-ups??? Reciting poetry... Pass, pass, pass..."

"Sigh, after looking around, the dancers are still the most interesting. Hmm... this one is a bit conservative, pass... this one is average-looking, pass... this one... is alright, pass... Hey! This one is good, refreshing, passionate, bold, generous and wealthy, suitable for tempering one's Dao heart."

"Hehehe, excellent work! A reward is due! A reward! A reward! A reward!"

Large amounts of spirit stones were tossed into the Mirror Flower Water Moon. Qin Shou watched for two hours straight, feeling refreshed and invigorated.

I plan to get up, lift my legs, do some stretching, and continue watching.

As he watched, Qin Shou suddenly sighed again.

"Another day of missing my auntie..."

Following his thoughts, Qin Shou opened his friends list to check on Nangong Liuli's situation. He saw that she was doing well and had even successfully entered the Void Realm.

But at this time, he wandered off to the Central Plains of China.

"Too far, too dangerous..."

Qin Shou frowned deeply, and in a fit of anger, watched the dance more than ten times as punishment for the old lady, during which he also rewarded her with more than a thousand top-grade spirit stones.

This made the monk, who was secretly watching from behind Qin Shou, extremely envious.

Each time the Mirror Flower Water Moon is opened, it costs a high-grade spirit stone, so the monk, adhering to the principle of "taking advantage of any opportunity", would secretly watch from a distance behind Qin Beast whenever he was watching.

Qin Shou collected his thoughts and continued browsing his friends list, wanting to see how his disciples and other friends were doing.

As he flipped through the pages, Qin Shou suddenly became enraged.

He suddenly jumped up from the bamboo chair, pointed at the sky, and cursed angrily:

"You scoundrel Yun Anran, I'll curse you to hell!"

"Fuck you! How dare you try to fool me..."

"Aaaaaah~~, I'm going to skin you alive and flick your ass........."

Qin Shou angrily cursed from the top of the mountain.

The whole process lasted half an hour.

Behind the mulberry tree, the monk peeked out at the Qin beast, then shrank back in to continue watching the show for free.

"Hehehe...hehehe...Amitabha, well done, well done...hehehe..."

"Hoo hoo~~"

Qin Shou's mouth was dry, so he sat down, took a sip of tea, and calmed himself down.

That son of a bitch is still alive and kicking.

It's a clone that's hanging there; the real body is enjoying itself.

However, Qin Shou did not expect that this guy would not choose the common path of merging the main body and the clone into one, but instead each went their own way and entered the Fusion Realm.

"I knew it! How could someone so despicable die so easily?"

Thinking of this, Qin Shou couldn't help but chuckle again.

"Never mind, being alive is a good thing."

"But if I see him again, I'll tie him to a cross and let Fatty and Black Rabbit have some fun."

"Damn it, you tricked me out of several jars of Enlightenment Wine..."

Qin Shou cursed and turned to cultivate.

......

Beiju Luzhou, Divine Sword Sect.

One after another, the mountain peaks rise abruptly from the ground, like sharp swords connecting the sky and the earth, towering majestically and magnificently.

On one of the peaks, in a palace, a beautiful woman sat on a soft couch, her long legs together, her head resting on her back, leisurely eating crystal grapes from the East China Sea that she had peeled herself.

Achoo........

The young man suddenly sneezed.

The beautiful woman paused, then immediately asked with concern, "Ranran, what's wrong?"

"I feel... I might... be being watched by some powerful being."

Yun Anran said solemnly.

Ever since the battle on the path to immortality, he has always felt an inexplicable sense of unease weighing on his heart. Especially recently, he has been sneezing frequently, which is not the state a powerful cultivator in the Integration Realm should be in.

"Feifei, my heart is suddenly pounding, and it feels really heavy."

"Oh? Is it serious?"

"I don't know, why don't you reach in and feel it... Oh dear, what can you feel through your clothes? Come on, put your hand inside."

"Oh dear, I'm shy."

"Haha, my concubine isn't shy at all, give me a kiss."

Yun Anran stretched her neck as hard as a turtle, and when her neck wasn't long enough, she used her tongue.

"Ranran, Xiao Sheng is still here."

Zhou Xuanfei blushed and avoided Yun Anran's pouting lips.

"Oh, little one, let him look. Come here, let your husband give you a kiss."

Yun Anran shook his head, rubbed against the beauty's full breasts, and then continued to ask for a kiss.

"Oh, how about we wait until tonight?"

The beauty's voice was already barely audible.

"All right......"

Yun Anran, feeling listless, shrank back and lay on Zhou Xuanfei's long legs. She beckoned to the young man standing upright below the palace and said:

"Come on, nephew, pour your brother-in-law a glass of wine."

Creak!

Zhou Xiansheng, who had been standing below for a long time, suddenly clenched his fists, his face turning pale and then purple. Especially when he saw the young man's scumbag appearance, he was so angry that his teeth ached from clenching them.

He simply couldn't understand what his aunt had seen in this scoundrel.

The other person is good for nothing except for their face.

But there are many people in this world with outstanding looks, so why did Aunt choose him?

Besides, in his understanding, his aunt was definitely not such a superficial person.

"My little nephew..."

Yun Anran shamelessly called out again.

"You're asking for it!"

Zhou Xiansheng was furious.

Today, after leaving the pass, I heard from my father that my aunt had returned, so I came here to offer my condolences and catch up with her. But as soon as I entered the palace, I saw my aunt flirting and joking with that scoundrel, having a great time. Even when I called "Aunt" several times, she seemed not to hear me.

"Oh dear, Feifei, I'm scared, he'll yell at me!"

Yun Anran immediately snuggled into Zhou Feixuan's arms and rubbed against her.

Zhou Feixuan blushed, glared at Zhou Xiansheng, and sternly rebuked him, "Little Sheng, how dare you speak to your uncle like that?"

"Come quickly and pour some wine for your uncle."

Click!

At that moment, Zhou Xiansheng's heart broke, and his eyes turned red.

Is this... still my elegant, noble, domineering, and aloof aunt?

Is this still the aunt who has loved me like a son since I was a child?

Is this still the same aunt who taught me to read, cultivate myself, and be a good person since I was a child?

No...that's not it!

“Aunt, that scoundrel is a womanizer. Besides, you two aren't married yet, so how can I call him uncle?”

Zhou Xiansheng said with a look of resentment.

He was an upright man who had friends and enemies, but for some reason, he just couldn't stand the person in front of him, especially that person with that always smug look.

"Little Saint, you mustn't be rude."

Consort Zhou shouted angrily.

Suddenly, he exuded an overwhelming aura and said imposingly:

"Yun Anran is your uncle-in-law. He is mine in life and in death."

"Right, Ranran?"

Zhou Feixuan suddenly lowered her head and looked at Yun Anran with a smile.

Yandere!

Yun Anran's heart skipped a beat, her eyes filled with affection, and she nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's right, I was born to be Feifei's person, and I seem to be Feifei's ghost."

"Ranran, you're so kind."

"Feifei, give me a kiss, give me a kiss."

“Ugh~(＞p＜”)”

Zhou Xiansheng could no longer bear it and ran out of the palace with a broken heart.

He was going to find his "uncle"...

"Oh dear, Fei Fei, Little Saint has run away in sadness."

"It's okay, Ranran, let's ignore him. Here, eat some grapes, ah~"

"Feifei, my good brother knows we're deeply in love, so he specially gave me a few jars of Enlightenment Wine. Come, let's have a toast together! Achoo... Achoo... Achoo..."

"Ranran, what's wrong with you? Why are you sneezing so much?"

"Achoo... It's nothing, it's nothing. My good brother is probably missing the 'me' underground."

"Ranran, please take care."

"My darling, come here, give me a kiss."

...

Yunzhou, Xuantian Sword Sect.

Feng Beixuan held a broken sword and a half-bottle of Enlightenment Wine left by Yun Anran, his face covered in tears.

"Senior brother... Senior brother..."

"Waaaaah... I'll never have a senior brother again..."

On this day, the sect leader of the Xuantian Sword Sect, a middle-aged man who had lived for over seven hundred years, wept bitterly, his voice so sorrowful that the entire sect could hear it.

"well.........."

A series of barely audible sighs slowly drifted through the sect.

........

"The Tao that can be spoken of is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name. Nameless, it is the origin of Heaven and Earth; named, it is the mother of all things. Therefore, one should always be without desire in order to observe its mystery..."

On Turtle Mountain, Da Mei repeatedly recited the few articles of the Tao Te Ching that Qin Shou had copied in his spare time.

Originally, Qin Shou only used it to tease Song Ningsheng for fun, but he never expected that Song Ningsheng would actually gain a lot of insights from it and would often teach Da Mei the new Taoist methods he had come up with.

It's true... different people can interpret the same article in hundreds of ways that even the author doesn't know.
