Chapter 85: Those who live long will be sentimental and depressed

Tang Ruowei came quickly and left quickly.

This girl was like a gust of wind, creating ripples and then drifting away.

What a scumbag! ...

…

The battle in Jingzhou is in full swing. Although key information about Huang Zhongtai was obtained from Tang Ruowei, the sense of crisis has been reduced a lot.

However, Chu Ning was not idle either. Instead, he began to study the contents of the second jade slip he got from Wushuang Sect.

The second jade slip recorded two formations, one of which was mainly for attack and killing. Unfortunately, Chu Ning did not have the materials needed for the formation.

The second formation is a teleportation formation.

When Chu Ning saw this formation, his eyes lit up. A formation for escape is better than a formation for attack.

Plan for failure before you succeed.

Moreover, the arrangement of this formation is actually simple. The main material is spirit stones, and as long as there are enough spirit stones, it will be fine.

The more spirit stones you have, the longer the teleportation distance.

Of course, under the current circumstances, it is impossible to use this formation to teleport out of the Liang Dynasty, because this world is blocked by a more advanced formation.

Chu Ning's days became spent studying the teleportation formation and spiritual armor techniques.

Three months passed like this.

"Knot!"

With a light shout, a layer of light green light appeared around Chu Ning. This light was the spiritual armor.

Looking at the green light, Chu Ning guessed that the senior who created the spiritual armor technique either had a decent life or had discovered it after watching turtles research it.

This layer of light has a faint texture similar to that of a tortoise shell, and it is green in color.

Of course, as long as it can save your life, just go green.

At a later stage in the Spirit Armor Technique, these green lights will actually form a tortoise-shell-like armor, but this requires a relatively long process.

In addition to cultivation, Chu Ning was also concerned about this battle.

Three months.

It is said that more than ten masters from both sides died.

The royal family did hide their strength. There were more grandmasters than imagined, but the number was still not as many as that of the allied camp.

"It really has become that the master is worse than a dog."

With a sigh, Chu Ning fetched a basin of hot water and went to wash his old aunt's feet.

My old aunt’s spirit is getting worse and worse. When she reaches the age of seventy, it is considered a long life for ordinary people in this world.

It’s a pity that my old aunt worked too hard when she was young and her foundation was damaged. Now that she has returned, she has let go of her last breath.

This body is aging at a rate visible to the naked eye.

With Chu Ning's current strength, he is powerless to do anything about the old aunt's aging condition.

Even if spiritual energy is injected into the old aunt's body, it can only increase her vitality a little, but cannot stop aging.

As for whether there are other ways to prolong life, Chu Ning doesn't want to look for them.

My great aunt has had a hard life. There’s no need to drag it on any longer.

Man, what’s the point of living if you can’t hear or see clearly at the end?

Since I am an immortal, it is destined that I will not be able to let the old man enjoy the pleasure of sitting around me in the short term.

I’m afraid that old aunt herself is tired too.

"Xiao Ning, I want to go back to Daning County."

The old woman waved her hand to reject Chu Ning's hand that was about to pull up her trouser legs. Chu Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, when the weather is good, I will go back with you to have a look."

"No need to wait, let's go today. My old aunt wants to go for a walk today."

Chu Ning was silent for a while, then nodded: "Okay."

A quarter of an hour later.

Chu Ning helped the old man onto the carriage and drove the car himself, heading towards Daning County.

After entering Daning County, many people were shocked when they saw Chu Ning driving.

But then he remembered that the wanted warrant hanging at the city gate had been removed, and he realized that the wanted warrant for Captain Chu had been withdrawn.

It seems that Captain Chu was originally wronged, but he has probably been cleared of the charges now.

Ordinary people didn’t know what the Eight Great Families and Four Major Sects were, they just thought that the wanted order was issued by the imperial court.

As for the battle in Jingzhou, in their minds it was just the Routu people attacking.

"Master Chu is back."

"Master Chu is still so handsome."

As the head of the police, Chu Ning has a very good reputation in Daning County.

Chu Ning greeted the people with a smile along the way, and finally drove the carriage to the entrance of the alley of the small courtyard where he lived when he traveled through time.

Although the old aunt didn't say where she wanted to go back to Daning County, he knew where she wanted to go.

When I opened the gate, there were no cobwebs or dust on the ground. Liu Junshan had arranged for people to come here to clean from time to time.

The yard remained exactly as it was when they left.

The old aunt went into the inner room first, but Chu Ning didn't go in because he had already noticed a visitor outside the door.

"Chu Ning, it's really you. I didn't believe it when I heard others say it."

Old Liao appeared at the door, panting, obviously having run over as soon as he heard the news.

Chu Ning smiled and thought that it was hard work for Old Liao.

The street that Lao Liao was patrolling was not close to here, almost arriving at the same time as me, so you can imagine how fast he ran.

"Old Liao, you have aged so much."

His hair is full of white. Old Liao has aged a lot in just over two years since we last met.

People only age faster and faster, not slower and slower.

"I'm worried about you. You don't eat well or sleep well every day. How can you not look old?" Old Liao smiled and said, "I'm glad you're back. Will you continue to be a captain?"

"No, I'm here to accompany my old aunt. I can't stay in Daning County for long."

Chu Ning shook his head. There was no surprise on Lao Liao's face. He had already anticipated this before coming.

Ordinary people in the city didn't know who Chu Ning had offended. As a constable, he spent some money and used his connections to find out some inside information.

The fact that Chu Ning dares to come back openly now must mean that he has the confidence. This confidence means that Chu Ning is destined to no longer be a constable.

"That's fine. After all, the temple in Daning County is a bit small."

"Old Liao, you are cursing me."

Comparing yourself to the real Buddha, isn't that insulting? Pah! "I was just giving an example, and you told me that."

Old Liao chuckled, then glanced towards the inner room and knew what was going on.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Then I won't bother you for now. If you're not in a hurry, you can go to the theater. Xiaoxiang is now a pillar of the theater. She even wrote a play last year based on the script you told her."

"good."

Chu Ning agreed. When he was listening to opera in the theater, he did talk with Xiaoxiang about a few scripts, all of which were the operas he liked to listen to in his previous life.

At this time, the old aunt also came out from the inner room. Seeing this, Old Liao greeted her: "Old Madam, I haven't seen you for a few years. You..."

Some idealistic words are fine to say at ordinary times, but at this moment Lao Liao suddenly found that he couldn't say them.

"It's Constable Liao. Xiao Ning, why don't you make Constable Liao a cup of tea?"

"No... no thanks. I still have to go patrol the streets. I'll be leaving first."

Old Liao left, and the old aunt held the red envelope in her hand. Chu Ning recognized it, as it was the one he redeemed from the pawnshop.

"Xiao Ning, I'll give this bracelet to you. If you meet a girl you like in the future, give it to her. Don't be shy. The girl in the red dress who came to our house was very nice. Her name was...what was it?"

"Tang Ruowei."

"Since you remember Miss Tang's name, it means you have her in your heart. I'm an experienced person. Don't think too far ahead about some things. How can you know it's not suitable if you haven't experienced it?"

Chu Ning was silent. He did have some feelings for Tang Ruowei, but when he thought about the fact that he was an immortal and was destined to be lonely in the future, he often couldn't take that step.

He doesn't want to see his beauty grow old.

If a person who lives for a long time gets emotional, he will become depressed!

“Don’t let yourself regret it later.”

The old aunt handed the bracelet to Chu Ning and said nothing more, but went back to the house again.

This time the old man opened the package he brought back from the carriage. Inside was some silver and some gold items made in the city.

After tea time.

My great aunt's two nephews came with their families.

Before leaving, Chu Ning sent someone to Paishan Town, Daning County to inform his aunt's nephews and grandchildren and ask them to come to the county seat.

“Here I am.”

The old aunt looked at her descendants with a loving look on her face. These gold objects were made for the children of her two nephews.

"Here, give this to Sissi."

"This belongs to Xiao Niu. Well, it's grown too big to wear. I'll go back and find a jewelry store to change the size of the bracelet."

Two hours later, the old aunt felt a little tired.

"Xiao Ning, I prepared some cakes and wanted to send them to all the neighbors. Now you can help my aunt deliver them."

"good."

Chu Ning nodded, took the cakes that his aunt had bought from the city, and delivered them to every household in the alley.

When the neighbors in the alley saw Chu Ning coming to their door with cakes, they were stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.

According to the custom in Daning County, when an elderly person in the family is about to die, filial sons and grandsons will send cakes to the neighbors.

I hope that when the old man really passes away, the neighbors will be able to help with the funeral arrangements.

Don't go to a wedding without being invited, and come to a funeral without being invited.

After the cakes are delivered, the neighbors will keep an eye on the family so that they can come and help them as soon as possible.

When Chu Ning returned to the yard, he heard the crying in the yard. His body trembled for a moment, but then returned to normal.

"Boy, those who live forever must go through this. If you can't get out of it, you will only fall into the demons of your heart in the future."

Black Snake rarely wrote on Chu Ning's arm to remind him.

As my friends around me grow old one by one, those who live long will become depressed due to their sentimentality.

"I'm not depressed, I just lost an elder and I feel sad." Chu Ning said calmly, "There is a proverb that says that as long as the parents are alive, the family is alive. Even if the parents are very old or not as good as their children, they are still a mountain in the heart of a woman."

"Now that the mountain has fallen, we have to walk the rest of the way on our own."

Chu Ning didn’t know whether the black snake beast could understand. Even if children were better than their parents, parents could not help their children in any way.

But as long as it is still there, this spiritual support will be there.

On this day, the old aunt was lying on the bed in the house, and Chu Ning stood in front of the door for a day and a night.

The next day.

Chu Ning had a more extraordinary temperament, but his realm did not improve at all.

"They say that one can suddenly realize something and ascend to heaven in broad daylight. This is all fake."

Chu Ning whispered softly, then smiled and shook his head. He figured out a lot of things that day, but his realm did not improve at all.

PS: This volume is finished and a new one will be started in the evening.

After a sleepless night, my daughter woke up at around six o'clock every day. After I finished writing at four o'clock, I thought it was unnecessary to sleep for two hours, so I simply took my daughter out for a walk and then came back to continue writing.
