No matter what, we can never forget the old Taoist priest's life-saving grace.
Shenyouzi smiled and said, "Old man, I am in good health and nothing is wrong."
"I have another piece of good news to tell you."
He paused deliberately to keep the audience in suspense.
Everyone looked at Shenyouzi, and An Li asked curiously, "Master, what's the good news?"
Shenyouzi stroked his gray beard again. Just then, a servant brought over some dumplings, and he ate a few of them directly.
"That is, I, the old man, removed one of Wuxu's arms!"
In the past six months, he took his apprentice to fight against evil cultivators and search for Wuxu's whereabouts.
Not long ago, he found it in Atu County, Beichen Country!
The two were brothers in the same school, but they started fighting after just a few words when they met!
Wuxu had not recovered from his earlier injury, so Shenyouzi cut off one of his arms on the spot.
Wuxu was defeated, so he used his spiritual power to escape...
Listen to this.
Everyone was very happy.
An Li was even happier, "Master, you have worked hard."
"Stop standing, everyone sit down and eat dumplings."
"Hey, eat, eat."
"I've been hungry all the way here, old man."
Shenyouzi picked up the jade bowl, finished the dumplings in a few bites, and asked the servant to bring two more bowls.
He has a big appetite, and one bowl is just enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
Everyone smiled and lowered their heads to start eating.
Afterwards, An Li took his three pairs of children to pay their respects to his mother and father.
On the way back, we bought a lot of roasted sweet potatoes, candied haws and other snacks and shared them.
It was almost noon when I got back home.
An Li saw the old Taoist priest Shenyouzi sitting in the yard, playing chess alone, and walked over.
Sitting opposite, he asked, "Why is the old Taoist priest playing chess alone?"
"Didn't Master Li accompany you?"
She asked with a smile, Shenyouzi and Li Bai knew each other.
Shenyouzi took a sip of wine from his wine gourd and smacked his lips. "Haha, old man Li, he's drunk and sleeping."
"This chess game is best played by one person. You can play wherever you want."
"Mrs. Ming, please listen to me tell you the story of Wuxu."
A glimmer flashed in Shenyouzi's old eyes.
"Master, please tell me." An Li nodded. She heard that Wuxu was the master's junior fellow apprentice.
I know very little about Wuxu.
The old Taoist priest was willing to talk and she was happy to listen.
Shenyouzi sighed, put down the black chess piece in his hand, and recalled what happened more than two hundred years ago.
"The entire Yunxu Nation believes in the Faith and worships the Xiyuan Spirit as their Lord."
"And the master has a deep connection with the Tao. He founded the Heavenly Palace and accepted me, my three junior brothers, and Wuxu as his disciples."
"His real name is Huang Daosheng. He is the youngest to join the sect, so everyone calls him Junior Brother. He is deeply loved by Master and us senior brothers."
"Perhaps it's our fault that we spoiled him."
"One time, he stole the Master's Baiji Changqingling Sword while the Master was out meeting friends."
"Fortunately, the master found it in time and recovered it."
"Of course, there will be a punishment."
"perhaps."
"It was from that time that Junior Brother planted the seeds of hatred."
"In a competition with another sect, he maliciously killed the opponent's disciples in an extremely cruel manner."
"The master was furious and expelled him from the sect."
"A hundred years later, my master ascended to heaven and I, an old man, said goodbye to my three fellow apprentices and began to travel the world."
"It was only more than a decade ago that I learned that he had actually done such a heinous thing."
"The master is kind-hearted. If he knew that his beloved apprentice had done something like this, he would definitely kill him personally."
"Unfortunately, it's too late..."
Shenyouzi drank the wine and felt unhappy.
Back then, it was his dereliction of duty as the eldest senior brother that caused him to harm innocent people.
As long as he lives, we will get rid of him!
An Li was silent for a while. It turned out that Wuxu was a bad person in the past.
Seeing the old Taoist priest's face full of self-blame, she comforted him, "Old Taoist priest, you don't have to blame yourself."
"This is not your fault. Who can guess the human heart? Those who do evil will be punished by heaven."
"I believe that one day, Wuxu will receive his retribution."
"Well, I hope so."
Shenyouzi looked up at the sky.
The way of heaven is so cruel that only one of the forty-nine creatures survives, leaving only a glimmer of hope.
Only by accumulating virtue and doing good deeds can people transcend this mundane world.
pity!
Junior brother, he doesn’t understand!
At this time.
Ming Yichu came over holding Ming Xin.
"Mother, Master, what are you talking about?"
Ming Yichui sat on a stone bench beside him and smiled faintly.
"You little brat, your master is playing chess."
"Come here and interrupt it all at once."
Shenyouzi took a sip of wine and cursed with a smile.
"Yes, yes, it's my fault."
"Mother, Master, the servants have already set the table and are waiting for you two to come over."
Ming Yichu was helpless.
Doesn't he understand the master's temper? He must have said something to his mother.
"Time flies, it's already noon."
"Old Taoist priest, I will accompany you when I have time. Let's go have lunch first."
An Li smiled and stood up.
He took his daughter, who was wrapped like a bear, and went back to the side hall.
As soon as the person came back, the house became much more lively.
soon.
It was New Year’s Day.
Firecrackers were set off before dawn, and everyone stayed in bed and got busy.
After eating dumplings in the morning, people start to pay New Year’s greetings, worship their ancestors and worship gods.
After finishing these things, it was already afternoon.
