Li Yi shook his head, and then asked as if he had expected it: "Are you asking about Lily's matter?"
"You're not going to intervene?"
"There is still a chance, no rush."
"But Lily only has fifty years left to live."
Zhao Si looked a little anxious. In fact, Li Lili was more familiar with Zhao Si than he and Bai Shi. After all, she was the follower behind them back then. Whenever they went fishing, it was always Li Lili who followed behind them, dragging the plastic bucket.
Zhao Si also treated her as his sister, and their relationship had gradually recovered in recent years.
Li Yi remained calm and composed. He simply glanced in the direction of the west room and said, "I respect Lily's choice."
In 1249 during the Hua Dynasty, the west room was lifeless and the peonies in the courtyard had withered.
Li Yi walked into the courtyard quietly and pushed open the door. The thin figure on the bed curled up slightly and covered himself tightly with the quilt.
He came to the bed and sat down, gently pulling back the quilt, revealing a head of snow-white hair. Just from the thin back one could guess the age and appearance of the person on the bed.
An elderly woman.
Li Lili buried her head deeper and said in a hoarse and old voice: "Brother, don't look at it, it's ugly."
Li Yi couldn't help but smile and said softly, "How can a big brother dislike his little sister's ugliness? Stand up and let me see."
After saying that, he gently lifted the quilt and helped Li Lili up from the bed.
The once beautiful lady who loved to wear goose yellow long skirts has turned into a hunchbacked old woman full of wrinkles.
Li Yi raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. His fingertips brushed across the rough skin, like a drop of clear water falling. The wrinkles disappeared, and snow-white skin appeared.
It was like the dry earth finally received the long-awaited moisture.
Li Yi gently picked up Li Lili and placed her in front of the dressing table. The gentle woman was reflected in the antique bronze mirror.
Snow-white skin, tall and small facial features, and a pair of crystal clear pupils under long eyelashes.
"Look, isn't this beautiful?"
Li Lili covered her lips, then hugged one of her few relatives in the world, her only brother, and used his chest to vent the weakness brought by the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man, as well as the confusion that she could not break through, through her tears.
An elder brother is like a father. Li Yi patted her back gently, restraining his previous laziness and leaving only the sense of security and stability of an elder.
"Cry, it's okay to cry. Monks are not heartless and heartless. Many times they don't cry because they can't cry. You can only rely on yourself. The world is always cruel. You must arm yourself to the teeth to avoid being hurt."
"But you still have me. You can cry in your brother's arms."
Li Lili cried louder and louder. She had lost track of time. She didn't stop crying until her voice became hoarse, her consciousness became groggy, and she fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, early morning.
Li Lili woke up from her sleep and got up in a panic. Seeing Li Yi sitting beside her bed, she quickly relaxed.
Li Yi asked, "How did you sleep?"
The expression was as nonchalant as ever, without too much warmth, but not too much distance either, just a casual greeting.
Li Lili nodded slightly and then fell silent.
The room fell silent for three quarters of an hour before Li Lili slowly said, "Brother, I don't want to die."
"good."
Li Yi responded concisely and clearly, reaching out and patting Li Lili on the head.
“You have become a god.”
"Um?"
Li Lili was stunned. When she came to her senses, she felt the tremendous magic power in her body and was confused for a moment.
"I...I have become a god?"
"What else?"
“Isn’t this too easy?”
"It's not easy either. Helping you to become a god is more tiring than paying taxes."
Li Yi's face was not red and he was not out of breath, and he did not look tired at all, but he usually looked like this when he went to pay his taxes.
It was very tiring at the beginning when he had to make friends with three people, but as Li Yi got a little familiar with them, the tiredness became less and less.
Even now, with Bai Shi included, Li Yi has paid his dues without even breathing hard.
Because he is stronger than he was six hundred years ago, he was not sure he could help others become gods before, but now he can.
This incarnation is not the same as the other incarnation. It does not need enlightenment, but relies on its own avenue. In this way, day and night, the chance of entering the avenue is very high, and its difficulty is equivalent to "the favor of heaven and earth".
"It's just that I thought you might not help my useless sister, and that you didn't want to help others prolong their lives."
Li Lili hugged her knees, her smile weak and uneasy.
"What about destroying the cause and effect of life and death..."
There were many people who asked her elder brother to extend his life. When he opened a clinic in the village, many people came for help. Whether it was the dignitaries who knew some of the situation or the common people who only knew medical skills, only a very few received help from her elder brother.
The chances are slim.
His eldest brother didn't like to help others extend their lives. He once said: Life and death are determined by fate. I can't interfere casually, and I have no obligation to do so.
Li Lili knew that if she asked the other party for help, she would get help, but she didn't want to disappoint Li Yi more than her life.
Is it appropriate to allow people to gain something without any effort, to make spiritual practice become meaningless, and to allow them to achieve immortality just because the person is their own relative?
Is this fair to all living beings in the world?
In Li Yi's calm eyes, thousands of Taoist rhymes are flowing. The Taoist rhymes in a small space can be seen thousands of miles away, comparable to heaven and earth.
This is no longer a simple spiritual platform and heart of Tao, but a great Tao that is on par with heaven and earth, and is completely different from the great Tao of heaven and earth.
The most perfect individual.
'Isn't this the regret I had at the beginning of my practice?'
Crack. A crisp sound was heard, as if something broke, or as if someone took a step forward.
Li Yi's breathing slowed down, billions of laws changed, and his heart of Tao was perfected.
He gently patted Li Lili's head, smiled and said, "This is the best way to make your family ascend to heaven. I am a layman. Others who become officials have to use nepotism. I will neither bring disaster to the world nor harm others after becoming an immortal. Why can't I let you live longer?"
"Even heaven and earth can favor those who are destined by heaven, so why can't I?"
"If you want to live, you can live forever."
Keeping those who he wants to live alive is something Li Changsheng cannot do, but it is something that Li Yi can do.
Therefore, my heart is the heart of Heaven, and my will is the will of Heaven.
I had prepared an outline of several thousand words for the ending a long time ago, and I had been laying the groundwork for a long time. I wrote six thousand words yesterday, but when I suddenly looked back, I was puzzled: Why does the ending have to be so tragic? Why do all the characters have to be killed?
If written this way, what is the difference between Li Yi and Li Changsheng? Li Changsheng's tragedy is enough, and it has ended, so why should I be sick? Only your tragedy is precious, right?
Then I deleted the ending outline and the 6,000 words. I want to write a happy story, with everyone's success and a harem full of quilts. I want to write a happy ending! (Yay!!!)
