Chapter 602: Mother and Mother
King Tongfu flew into a rage and asked, "Why did you disturb my mother?"
Captain Lang shrank back and said, "The divine realm has been sealed off for three days. Grandma was originally scheduled to go to the Wu Palace to listen to the sutras with the old princess, so she was naturally delayed. Then she saw the rampant god frantically searching everywhere, so she sent me to inquire. I learned that the great king's eyes were missing. I endured it for several days, and I was so worried that I sent me to invite the kings."
King Tong Kuan was speechless. He looked at his brothers and asked, "I can't take care of my mother, so why don't you take care of her too? You're disturbing her interest in listening to the sutra."
Several brothers could only lower their heads like quails, not knowing how to respond.
The Immortal Jin Ting just felt it was weird.
These five brothers attach great importance to filial piety in their daily lives. They are caring and considerate to the old lady in every possible way and there is no time when they forget to take care of her.
With their level of skill, it is impossible for them not to remember, unless they don't want to remember or don't want to see the old lady.
But why is this?
King Tongfu sighed and said, "Let's go. Mother has called you. You can't hide away even if you want to."
Jin Ting Daxian looked puzzled and asked, "Why are you hiding from the old lady? Why not just speak to her? The divine realm is sealed off, and if you don't tell her the whole story, she'll be even more worried."
King Tongquan showed a worried and complicated expression on his face, but did not answer him.
The other four people did not answer him either. It was an extremely strange atmosphere.
It was so strange that even the great immortal Jin Ting was frightened.
"Let's go."
The five brothers transformed into five streams of smoke and flew towards the old lady's residence.
The Immortal Jin Ting followed closely behind and turned into a stream of moonlight and disappeared.
Instead, Captain Lang, who had come to inform them, stayed behind, following slowly on the gloomy wind. Feeling bitter, he shouted, "Wait for me!"
But the sound disappeared into the smoke and no one could hear it.
Wutong was stopped when he landed in front of the manor with pink walls and black tiles.
Qiong Niang stopped them at the door, her eyes filled with resentment and faint tears, and said, "You've been tossing and turning, and now some are dead and some are disabled. Can you still achieve your goal of hegemony?"
When questioned by their sister, none of the Five Gods opened their mouths to refute. Instead, they turned their faces away and dared not look at her.
Qiong Niang's face was filled with resentment, and when she looked at the Immortal Jin Ting, she glared at him without any hesitation.
Captain Hua's voice called from inside the door, "Miss, grandma invites the kings in."
Qiong Niang took a deep breath and turned to walk towards the farm.
King Tonghui quickly followed and asked, "Qiong Niang, how is mother?"
Qiong Niang said, "You will get what you wish for, and your great cause will be accomplished."
She no longer went to see her brothers and walked straight into the garden.
The few brothers left behind all showed extremely complicated emotions.
Jin Ting Daxian was just standing aside, but he could feel the beating and burning fire in their hearts, which was almost burning them to ashes.
Several people followed Qiong Niang to meet the old lady in the Buddhist temple deep in the flower garden.
Qiong Niang was already sitting next to the old lady and helped the old lady, who had been chanting, to her feet.
"You're here?" The old lady stood up, her body still hunched, looking thin and frail.
The Immortal Jin Ting was surprised.
He had just seen the Virgin Mary a few days ago. Although she was old and frail at that time, she was in good spirits and did not look old at all. But now, she seemed to have an aura of death on her face.
Seeing her like this, not only the Immortal Jin Ting, but also the Five Gods were totally unprepared.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
The old lady was calm and open-minded. She smiled with her eyebrows curved and said, "I am too old and have lived too long."
King Tong Kuan knelt down before the old lady and kowtowed, saying, "Mother, it is my fault that I have caused you to worry."
The old lady helped him up, held his face with her hand, and said, "I am your mother. If I don't consider you, who else can I consider?"
"Your eyes are the brightest. You wouldn't look good without them."
King Tonghui wiped his tears and said, "Mother, I will definitely find a way to prolong your life!"
The old lady sighed and said, "I've lived enough. Everyone has this day, it's just a matter of time. I'm not like you, who are so devoted to spiritual practice."
"You can't bear to leave me, and I can't bear to leave you either. So it's been dragging on and on, until today."
"I won't leave, and your father won't let me go either. Why keep entangled in this, entangled in lust and entangled in sin?"
The Five Gods surrounded her and tried to keep her.
The old lady was truly tired. She said, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. The old man has said this for a long time. It's me who can't bear to leave you. You are now advanced in Taoism and have profound magical powers. What use am I other than being a burden to you? It would be better to replace her. At least she can help you."
The Five Gods all shed tears and looked at the old lady, but they couldn't say much.
They were naturally extremely filial to their mother, but they also dared not disobey "her" at all.
The Immortal Jin Ting only felt that the confusing spider in his body was constantly stirring. He looked at the old lady and noticed that the old lady's shadow was constantly changing, from the appearance of a human to the appearance of a big spider.
His heart began to beat wildly, and his mind felt as if struck by lightning, and he felt a sense of danger that made his scalp tingle.
The magic power in his body continued to surge. Although the Bewitching Spider had left its mother, it still showed its admiration for her.
This influence on him made the way he looked at the old lady become like a filial son.
The old lady said, "I am your mother, and she is also your mother. After I am gone, she will take care of you."
"Mother!" Wutongshen burst into tears.
The old lady smiled and patted their backs, touched their hands, hugged them and looked at them.
But she was not as open-minded as she said. Instead, she was full of attachment and before she knew it, she burst into tears.
She warned: "Mother can't help you anymore. You will have to rely on yourself in the future. Be careful in everything you do. Think twice before you act. Don't hurt yourself."
She sat on a cushion, but the shadow beneath her stretched out, changing from the shape of a spider to that of a human, as if she had just woken up. She lazily leaned her head and looked at Wutongshen and Jinting Daxian.
There was a buzzing sound in Jin Ting Daxian's head. That was the cry of the Confused Spider.
The expressions on the Five Gods' faces faded, and they knelt behind the old lady, showing respect to the shadow.
Jin Ting Daxian joined them at some point and bowed his head respectfully towards the shadow.
The old lady's breathing gradually calmed down, and at a certain point, it suddenly stopped.
But the next moment, it was as if a dead tree came back to life with spring, and a stronger breath grew out, making her aging figure become upright, her white hair turned black, her wrinkles disappeared, revealing smooth skin, and she transformed from a dying old woman into a beautiful middle-aged woman.
"Mother!"
Wutongshen spoke respectfully.
The "mother" smiled and said, "Good children, get up now."
