Chapter 42 I Return to Dust, She Ascends to Immortality
"Who says the mortal world is worse than the pure cultivation in the mountains?"
"Although you are a mortal, who says you have done less than cultivators like us?"
Sitting in the courtyard, Xiao Mo looked at the book in his hand, but found that he couldn't continue reading.
In Xiao Mo's mind, he would from time to time recall the words that Fu Chen said before he left.
really.
Originally, Xiao Mo thought that since Ruxue was unwilling to leave this time, he would slowly guide her.
Slowly persuade her to leave, everyone can say goodbye with a smile, and she can go up the mountain with peace of mind instead of forcing herself to have any regrets.
But after hearing what Fu Chen said, Xiao Mo felt a little shaken.
Don’t I need to “drive” Ruxue away?
Is this really okay?
Ruxue is becoming more and more dependent on me.
And I am only a mortal, no more than a hundred years old.
A hundred years later, Ruxue watched me leave with her own eyes. Can her heart of Taoism really bear it?
"Xiao Mo."
"Xiao Mo!"
"Hey! Xiao Mo!"
Just when Xiao Mo was in a daze, Bai Ruxue's little hands kept waving in front of Xiao Mo's eyes.
"What happened to Ruxue?" Xiao Mo came back to his senses.
"I told you before that I want to pick up my sister from the mountain tomorrow. Is that really possible?" Bai Ruxue asked.
Xiao Mo nodded: "Of course that's possible."
"Okay then, I'll pick her up tomorrow." Bai Ruxue said happily, "You'll definitely like Xiaoqing."
"Hmm." Xiao Mo smiled slightly and then fell into thought.
Looking at Xiao Mo's appearance, Bai Ruxue couldn't help but pout: "Xiao Mo, what's wrong with you? Ever since you sent that Taoist priest away, you've been like a lost soul."
As she spoke, Bai Ruxue's peach blossom eyes flashed with a strange color, and she quickly took two steps back in fright: "Damn Xiao Mo! Are you attracted to me?"
Xiao Mo rolled up the book and tapped the girl's head gently: "What are you thinking about? Nothing."
"Really?" Bai Ruxue bent down with her hands behind her back and looked up at Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo accidentally saw the fat mountain snow sea in the girl's collar and quickly turned his eyes away: "Really not."
"That's good." Bai Ruxue patted her high, undulating neckline. "You scared me to death."
"Then Xiao Mo, why do you look so depressed?" Bai Ruxue continued to ask.
"Nothing." Xiao Mo shook his head, "Don't worry about me."
“.”
Bai Ruxue pouted.
How could the snake not be worried about him?
At noon, Bai Rushue brought out the lamb stewed with radish and wolfberry from the kitchen.
Every once in a while, Bai Rushue would stew mutton for Xiao Mo.
At first Xiao Mo didn't know the reason, but later he found out that when Aunt Qian was chatting with Bai Rushue, she said, "Mutton is good for men, and you will feel more energetic after eating it."
Bai Rushue didn't understand why, but felt that "after eating mutton, I feel more motivated to study."
Xiao Mo didn't know how to correct her.
After lunch, Bai Ruxue washed the dishes and walked out of the yard, and saw Xiao Mo sitting in the yard in a daze.
Bai Ruxue washed the clothes and hung them out to dry in the yard, while Xiao Mo was still in a daze.
He was still in a daze while Bai Ruxue was cleaning the yard.
The woman's eyes rolled, she lifted her small feet in embroidered shoes and stepped on his foot, but he didn't even react.
After dinner, Xiao Mo was still in a daze.
At this time, her white and pink cheeks were already bulging.
She didn't like Xiao Mo like this.
She just wanted to see Xiao Mo happy every day.
At night, as darkness fell, Bai Ruxue seemed to have thought of a way to improve Xiao Mo's mood. She quickly took Xiao Mo's hand and said, "Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo, come with me."
"Where are you going?" Xiao Mo asked.
"Go somewhere that makes you happy."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Xiao Mo to refuse, Bai Ruxue pulled Xiao Mo up and walked out of the yard.
Bai Ruxue took Xiao Mo up the mountain and kept walking up.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Bai Ruxue brought Xiao Mo to the top of the mountain.
At this time, the sky was already full of stars.
Because the mountain was so high, Xiao Mo seemed to be surrounded by stars and was in the entire galaxy.
It seems that as long as you stretch out your hand, you can hold the stars in your hand.
"How about it? It looks good, right?" Bai Ruxue put her hands on her hips, looking a little proud.
"It's beautiful indeed." Xiao Mo nodded, "But why did you bring me here, Ruxue?"
"Because you're in a bad mood."
Bai Ruxue pouted.
"Before I went down the mountain with you, I would come here whenever I encountered something unhappy. As long as I shouted it out, my mood would immediately improve. But after I went down the mountain with you, I rarely come here."
"Why?"
"It takes me over an hour to get to the top of the mountain from the village, and it's very tiring. So I usually cry on that rock, cursing you as I cry, just like I did last time."
Xiao Mo: “.”
"Alright, alright, let's try it." Bai Ruxue pulled Xiao Mo forward, "Be sure to shout it out loud."
"This is not good," Xiao Mo felt a little embarrassed.
"What's wrong with that? No one will hear you. Just look at me."
Bai Ruxue stepped forward, facing the mountains with her back to Xiao Mo, and shouted:
"Xiao Mo! You big stinker! Don't complain about the taste of my cooking!"
“.”
"Xiao Mo! Stop studying! Come play with me!"
“.”
"Xiao Mo, don't scold me, or I will ignore you."
"Xiao Mo! You are not allowed to marry other girls! Do you hear me?"
"Xiao Mo! You have to cheer up, otherwise I will be unhappy too!"
The woman's voice spread from the mountains, and the echo reverberated among the mountains.
Looking at her back and listening to her voice.
His name was in every word she said.
"That's about it." Bai Ruxue turned around and looked at Xiao Mo, "It's very useful."
Xiao Mo smiled slightly: "Let's not talk about whether it is useful or not, why do you keep scolding me?"
Bai Ruxue gave Xiao Mo a cold look and said, "You big idiot, because you are the only one in my world."
“.”
Xiao Mo's expression froze for a moment, and an indescribable feeling broke out in his heart.
"Just follow your heart."
The words that Fu Chen said echoed in Xiao Mo's mind.
His eyes gradually became clear, as if he had figured something out.
Yes, follow your heart
If she doesn't want to leave, why do I always want her to leave?
What if I pass away a hundred years later?
At least, I can stay by her side for these hundred years.
A hundred years later.
I return to dust.
She embarked on the immortal path.
"Come and try it, it really works." Bai Ruxue pulled Xiao Mo's wrist.
"Do I really have to shout?"
"I really need to shout."
"Alright." Xiao Mo looked at the mountains and hills under the moonlight, overcame the shame in his heart, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly, "A hundred years, so short!"
"Eh?" Bai Ruxue blinked, then laughed softly, like the tinkling of silver bells, "Xiao Mo, what's your trouble?"
She walked up to him, stood beside him, and shouted in the same direction, "How can a hundred years be too short? A hundred years is a long time!"
"fool."
Xiao Mo turned his head and looked at the woman beside him with a smile.
A hundred years is really a long time for humans.
But for you.
It’s really short.
