Chapter 2 Don't
It was getting late, and Mr. Shi watched his granddaughter go into her room to sleep. He heard her breathing as she quickly fell asleep.
He walked out of the courtyard and saw the clan leader and his eldest son and grandson waiting outside the door. He smiled and said, "You are here."
The clan leader smiled and said, "Uncle, are you reluctant to part with Sister Lan?"
"No. When her father left the sect, I didn't feel reluctant to let him go."
The clan leader smiled but said nothing. The old clan leader told him that after Shi Beichen left for the sect, it took Old Shi more than half a month to recover.
Old Shi led the clan leader and his two grandchildren into the courtyard. After the four of them sat down, Old Shi looked at them and smiled.
"Now that the three of you are here, I don't have to worry about my funeral anymore."
"Grandfather, the Immortal is resting in the main hall. I will go and kowtow to ask the Immortal to come and save you."
"Silly child, I have already seen the Immortal."
At the signal from the clan leader, the young man stepped out of the courtyard. The clan leader looked at Old Shi and said, "Uncle, are you worried that you won't be able to send Sister Lan off?"
"If I can't get up tomorrow morning, help me think of a way to deal with Sister Lan.
Her father came back a few years ago. He didn't say anything, but I knew he was trying his best to learn the art of cultivation.
I want to make Lan Jie'er feel more concerned so that she won't easily risk her life for her future. ”
The clan leader sighed in his heart. In fact, the old man knew in his heart that as long as his child took the path of cultivating immortals, he would be fighting against heaven for tens of millions of years of life.
It was getting late, so the clan leader and his grandson said goodbye and left, and Mr. Shi blew out the lights in the yard.
At three quarters past the hour of Yin, the main hall was filled with people seeing them off.
The two immortals came out of the main hall and the crowd suddenly became noisy.
"Xiao Liu, mother can't bear to leave you."
"What nonsense! Don't block Xiaoliu's bright future."
"Dad Xiaoliu, take care of your woman."
Monk Ningxia was already counting the number of people. He quickly nodded to his companions and said, "Everyone is here."
When Shi Zelan heard his words, her hands involuntarily tightened on Mr. Shi's sleeves.
Old Shi looked down at her and said, "Don't worry, Sister Lan. Your Bachun will accompany you back to the sect."
Shi Zelan looked in the direction indicated by Mr. Shi and saw a young woman standing outside the main hall in a place where the lantern could not reach. She was the Shi Bachun that Mr. Shi mentioned.
Forty years ago, Shi Bachun was diagnosed with five spiritual roots, and she took the initiative to choose to go to the sect to practice Taoism.
She was gone for many years, until four years ago, when she accompanied Shi Zelan back to Shijiazhuang.
It has been forty years. Her parents have passed away, and her brother and sister-in-law have become old. When they face their younger sister who has returned, the family doesn't know how to get along with her for a while.
Shi Bachun told her family that she was the person arranged by the sect to take care of Shi Zelan's daily life.
After Shi Zelan was found to have only one spiritual root yesterday, the Ningxia cultivator found an opportunity and asked Shi Bachun if he wanted to return to the sect.
Ningxia said that if Shi Bachun was willing to stay and live with her family, the sect would leave her a generous sum of money for resettlement.
Shi Bachun said that she wanted to return to the sect, she wanted to continue practicing, and she also wanted to continue taking care of Shi Zelan's daily life.
Ningxia was not at all surprised by Shi Bachun's choice, and immediately agreed with her on a departure time.
When Shi Bachun saw Shi Zelan looking at her, she took a few steps away and was stopped by her brother and sister-in-law.
“Bachun, your brothers and sisters-in-law are old, but your nephews and grandnieces are young.
Whenever you come back, there will always be a room for you in the house. ”
"Brothers, sisters-in-law, you must take good care of your health."
The two immortals had already walked out at this time, and the clan leader hurriedly called on the tribesmen to follow them.
Shi Bachun's brother and sister-in-law made way for him, and Shi Bachun bowed deeply to them.
In the four years since she came back, no matter how much criticism there was outside, her brothers and sisters-in-law tried their best to protect her.
The crowd rushed out, and Mr. Shi and Shi Zelan followed closely behind the immortal.
When the immortal stopped, Shi Zelan saw that there was an exquisite small boat in his hand.
The immortal threw the small boat to the ground, and the boat became bigger.
"Stand back, everyone stand back."
The clan leader quickly spoke up to remind his fellow tribesmen, and naturally, Grandpa Shi and his grandchildren also took several steps back.
Shi Bachun didn't know when she walked to Shi Zelan's side. When Shi Zelan looked up at her, she blinked at Shi Zelan quietly.
At this time, Mr. Shi patted Shi Zelan's hand that was holding his sleeve and said, "Sister Lan, let go. You have to move forward.
Lan Jie'er, your father and mother are not in the sect, so you should be more filial to your master on their behalf, and learn skills well. ”
Shi Zelan nodded again and again. She couldn't bear to leave this old man who always cared about her.
Shi Bachun reached out to hold Shi Zelan's hand, but she pulled her hand away.
Shi Zelan turned around, knelt down facing Mr. Shi, and kowtowed three times.
"Grandpa, Sister Lan will no longer be able to show filial piety to you."
When she raised her head, Mr. Shi fell backwards. The patriarch, who had been paying attention to him, came over and helped Mr. Shi steady himself.
Shi Bachun came over and helped Shi Zelan up. She had of course seen Mr. Shi's condition, but Mr. Shi deliberately concealed it from his granddaughter, so she naturally turned a blind eye.
Shi Bachun bowed deeply to Mr. Shi and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of Sister Lan."
Shi Zelan wanted to look back at Mr. Shi, but Shi Bachun protected him and he couldn't turn back.
She took Shi Zelan's hand and boarded the flying boat, and the parents of the six following children quickly sent their children onto the flat-bottomed boat.
Shi Zelan leaned forward to take a look at Mr. Shi, but there were many people in the lighted area and she did not see Mr. Shi.
The two immortals signaled the Shi family members to step back a bit, they tiptoed on the ground and went straight into the flying boat.
The tribesmen's eyes lit up. While they were closing their eyes, the flying boat had already flown up and became a streak of light that flashed quickly across the sky.
The tribesmen looked up at the sky for a while, and the stars in the sky blinked.
The clan members stood outside the main hall for a while, and finally everyone went home.
"Granduncle, wake up."
When they heard the sound coming from the main hall, they turned around and ran towards the main hall.
In the main hall, Mr. Shi had a peaceful look on his face, as if he was having a very beautiful dream.
The patriarch put his hand under his nose several times, but couldn't feel his breath.
The clan leader knelt down immediately and saw the clan members rushing in: "My great uncle is gone."
"No, my great uncle just smiled and told me that my little six will definitely have a bright future."
"Patriarch, my great uncle is just fast asleep."
After Shi Zelan boarded the flying boat, Old Shi was helped into the main hall by the eldest grandson of the clan leader.
After he sat down comfortably, he said he wanted to rest for a while and signaled the patriarch's eldest grandson to go out and watch the fun.
The clan leader's eldest grandson naturally did not dare to go far away from the main hall, and he stood guard at the door of the main hall.
The clan leader came back, and just before he entered the main hall, Mr. Shi could still hear his breathing.
When the patriarch reached out to feel Shi Lao's breathing, his breathing stopped.
