"Who is Litchi?"
Ling Zhenzhen asked about this name.
Although it sounded a little strange, it inexplicably gave him a sense of familiarity.
The old lady looked at him and explained casually,
"She was also a little fox. I kept her with me for a while when she was little."
She paused and said,
"When you were five years old, you choked on lychees and almost died. It was she who saved you."
Ling Zhenzhen vaguely remembered that this seemed to have happened, but he had no impression of the little fox named Hu Lizhi.
"She saved me, so is she also my immortal?"
The old lady couldn't help but roll her eyes at him when she heard that. "You're just dreaming."
He couldn't even sense her alone, and yet he wanted another fairy.
"She is half-demon, she can't be an immortal."
Ling Zhenzhen said "oh" and looked at the old lady again and asked her,
"Then why did you choose me as your disciple? Why did you choose me when I couldn't sense you in all these years?"
When the old lady heard this, she became furious.
"It's all because of you!"
Ling Zhenzhen: ...
He said before that it was none of his business?
Seeing his innocent face, the old lady sighed again and told him about her past relationship with Xie Zhen's family.
The old lady's name is Hu Lianzhi.
Back then, it was just an ordinary fox practicing in the mountains.
Unlike other foxes, although she is the oldest, her cultivation is the weakest.
But because she was the most senior in that area of the mountain, most foxes did not dare to act rashly in front of her.
Like the immortal just now, she led him for a while before he developed his own abilities.
Hu Lianzhi's cultivation is weak, but she likes to be close to humans.
The year Xie Zhen's father got married, he accidentally rescued her from a trap in the mountains.
From then on, Hu Lianzhi often ran down the mountain and wandered around the Xie family's house. Over time, Xie Zhen's father would often feed her some food.
This also formed a bond between her and the Xie family.
"I watched you being born."
Hu Lianzhi said,
"I have been watching over you since you were a baby, until you were five years old. That year you almost choked to death, but were saved by Hu Lizhi. I saw that your chance to be with the fox clan had come.
I took the initiative to show up and let your parents set up a hall for me, and accept you as my disciple."
As the family fairy, she will protect the child throughout his life.
Little Xie Zhen went through the ceremony under the guidance of his father, but he was too young to remember it.
Afterwards, Hu Lianzhi officially stayed in the Xie family as the family deity, and chose a suitable time to open up Xie Zhen's acupoints.
To put it simply, the immortals open up the orifices of their disciples by using their own spiritual power. This is a necessary process for every disciple who goes out to perform rituals.
Starting from the head, he opened up the meridians in his body little by little, stimulating his spiritual power, allowing him to sense external objects, see things that ordinary people cannot see, and sense auras that ordinary people cannot sense.
But this process must go through a relatively painful stage at the beginning.
When Hu Lianzhi first gave Xie Zhen the tip, Xie Zhen's reaction was very intense.
Although Xie Zhen's parents felt distressed, they knew that this was a necessary process, so they let him endure it.
As a result, Xie Zhen suffered from pain for more than half a year and still saw no improvement. Xie Zhen's parents knelt in front of her hall and begged her to find another disciple.
Seeing that Xie Zhen's situation was special, Hu Lianzhi made an agreement with Xie's parents to open his orifices when he grew up.
As a result, the wait lasted for more than 20 years.
As Xie Zhen grew older, she completely lost the connection with Xie Zhen.
If Bai Zhu had not given him the thorn with his spiritual power for traction, she would not even be able to meet him in her dreams.
Later, Hu Lianzhi also thought about the reason.
In addition to the fact that her own cultivation level was not high, perhaps it was also because Xie Zhen subconsciously rejected her from becoming his immortal family.
“After a child experiences the pain of having his orifices opened for the first time, he or she will subconsciously resist the source of the pain.
When you resist my existence, the connection between us will be broken bit by bit."
This was also the reason why the old lady was so angry that she wanted to strangle him after she reconnected with him.
Although he himself may have long forgotten about it.
As Hu Lianzhi said, Ling Zhenzhen really doesn't remember this.
"Even if I really resisted it when I was a kid, I didn't resist it at all when I grew up! Why can't I sense it?!"
Ling Zhenzhen felt wronged.
He has always longed for immortals because he vaguely remembered that his parents said he had an immortal when he was a child, but when he asked them later, his parents refused to admit it.
He could only explore on his own to learn about this, and even... pretend that he really worshipped an immortal and played tricks on the Internet...
Isn’t this a different kind of “sincerity”?
Hu Lianzhi looked at Ling Zhenzhen for a long while, then said,
"You're still resisting. You just don't know it."
Just like she had seen him in his dreams several times, he thought he was possessed by a dirty thing and never thought that she was his fairy.
If Jiang Xuxu hadn't pointed it out, he wouldn't even be aware of her existence.
But this is still far from enough.
"If you want to become a true disciple, you must first let go of your fear and resistance. Neither I nor Master Jiang can help you with this."
As Hu Lianzhi spoke, she began to be surrounded by fog.
Ling Zhenzhen's face changed slightly when he saw this, but he seemed to be trapped in the spot and could only watch Hu Lianzhi's figure disappear into the mist.
Before disappearing, he only heard her say,
"One day, when you really stop resisting and truly accept my existence, then perhaps you won't need to rely on other forces anymore, and you will be able to... communicate with me."
