Chapter Twenty-Eight
The next morning, Xu Changsheng sat blankly in the yard, with a splitting headache, but more importantly, he was still depressed.
Liang Mi told him what happened. It was Gu Lingqing's hand. Gu Lingqing got involved with a cultivator, who was the elder of the family who came with Gu Guan.
Gu Lingqing got some immortal treasures from him and used one of them on himself.
It's fine now. Before the day when the town fell, I was half-dead. Soul attack? The attack should be the soul. This is invisible and intangible. It's still the method of the immortal family. How can I, a mortal, bear it? Ancient
The clearing was definitely for his own life.
I don’t know how long that drink of wine in Tang and Song Dynasties can keep me alive. I woke up at the Chenghuang Temple this morning and didn’t see him. I heard Liang Mi say that he went out early in the morning, and he didn’t say what he was going for.
Gu Guan also disappeared. He must have gone back. After all, he is an immortal. He came to hang out with me for a few days out of novelty. Now that the novelty is over, he naturally went back. After all, compared to his elders, he is the only person he knows.
What does a few days of "Brother Xu" mean? I am not like Yu Yanliu said, because Gu Guan doesn't know who he is after calling him "Big Brother" for a few days.
At the tofu shop, Xu Changsheng also asked Liang Mi to go over and tell him that he was sick. It was probably that Li pushed him to deliver the tofu this morning.
But the only good thing is that he has lived a "retirement" life in advance. He can bask in the sun in this small yard every day and look at the sky in the four corners. Xu Changsheng smiled to himself.
Suddenly, the void in front of Xu Changsheng rippled like water on the water. Le An stepped out of it with red eyes, looking at Xu Changsheng sitting on the chair like a puppet, with a complex expression on his face.
Le An closed his eyes and felt it for a while before speaking: "Xu Changsheng, this time it's really complicated. Your soul is hurt now, and there are even cracks in your three souls and seven souls, and there is also a faint curse power.
It's been lingering for a long time. If it were placed in the Xianjia sect, it would be difficult to fully recover."
Xu Changsheng also knew that the injury was serious this time, but he didn't expect it to be so serious. According to Le An, he should be no different from the dead. After thinking about it, he smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect Gu Lingqing to be willing to give up."
Using the magic weapon of the Immortal family to deal with me, it seems that I have a pretty heavy weight in his heart."
Xu Changsheng has a great advantage in that he is open-minded and can see everything with a broad mind. There is no obstacle that he cannot overcome. If there must be one, then fine, I will go around it.
Le An ignored Xu Changsheng's joke, but said solemnly: "After my next breakthrough, I should be able to slowly remove this curse power, but there is nothing I can do about this soul rift.
"
"It's okay. It doesn't matter whether you recover or not. Anyway, there's only so much time left, so I'll let it go." Xu Changsheng smiled casually.
Le An looked at Xu Changsheng and said solemnly: "Xu Changsheng, let alone the town collapse, even if the whole small world turns into nothingness, I will let you live."
Xu Changsheng was shocked in his heart. He looked at Le An and didn't expect him to think so. Maybe he was a friend, just like he did to Liang Mi. He would rather suffer a loss than let him live a better life.
"Your sister is here, I'm leaving first." Le An disappeared into thin air before Xu Changsheng could answer.
The courtyard door also rang at the right time. Xu Changsheng got up and wandered to open the door. It was indeed Li Ruan.
Li Ruan originally thought that Xu Changsheng really just had an ordinary cold, but after taking a look, he found that Xu Changsheng's face was pale, even his lips were white and peeling, and even his previously bright eyes had turned into a pool of dead water.
Xu Changsheng forced a smile and said: "Sister, I'm fine, come in and sit down."
Li Ruan also entered the room. When Xu Changsheng sat down, Li Ruan stretched out his right hand and pointed his bright jade-like index finger between Xu Changsheng's eyebrows.
Xu Changsheng felt a little coolness between his brows, and then he felt a breath entering his body and spreading everywhere. He was about to ask.
Li Ruan said seriously: "Stay calm and don't talk."
Xu Changsheng had no choice but to wait quietly. After a while, Li Ruan took back his strength and sat down on Xu Changsheng.
The student on the other side looked a little pale, and there was a thick layer of sweat on his forehead.
"Sister is also a cultivator?" Xu Changsheng asked doubtfully.
Li Ruan stared at Xu Changsheng and nodded, "Who did this? To be so ruthless and attack the soul directly, this is completely trying to kill you."
Xu Changsheng told all the grievances between himself and Gu Lingqing one by one.
After hearing this, Li Ruan was a little surprised that the fight between children turned into a life-threatening issue.
However, cultivators were still involved. If the Gu family had not participated, how could Xu Changsheng be so seriously injured? He almost lost his soul. Blood debt must be paid with blood. Killing intention gradually grew in Li Ruan's heart, but he still smiled gently on the surface.
Xu Changsheng didn't ask Li Ruan why he hid the fact that he was a cultivator from him. There was a difference between immortals and mortals, and she must have had her own reasons why he hid it from her.
"Sister, where are you a cultivator from?" Xu Changsheng asked curiously.
Li Ruan moved his head closer, put his forehead against Xu Changsheng's, and said softly: "There is no town tower in Nanming Continent."
Xu Changsheng could feel Li Ruan's breath, and the pain in his head seemed to be getting better.
I learned about the Four Continents from Le'an, but I didn't know anything about the sects. However, the force represented by Li Ruan could stay in the Qiongxu Realm for so long, so it should be very strong in itself.
Xu Changsheng continued to ask: "That sister's cultivation should be very high. Can she fly in the sky?"
Li Ruan shook his head slightly, and Xu Changsheng's head was shaking, "Not yet, I can only fly for a short while now, not for a long time, but it will be soon."
"Sister, do you think I can practice?" Xu Changsheng still asked. After experiencing such things, he wanted to practice more and more. If he also had a cultivation level, would he still be injured like this?
Li Ruan sat up straight again, with a pair of beautiful eyes like water, and said guiltily: "I was originally going to take you on the path to immortality, and my main lineage is the soul, but the spiritual energy in the Qiongxu world is exhausted.
You can’t practice at all. I was planning to take you back to the sect and let you practice again, but I didn’t expect you to be injured first.”
"It would be fine if you had already embarked on the path to immortality. My sect is well versed in the art of souls and there are several ways to restore your soul. But you are still a mortal and you have injured your soul..." Li Ruan also had a headache, but more
What I regret most is why I couldn't make some preparations in advance. If I had given him some self-defense magic weapon, it wouldn't be like this.
Xu Changsheng also understood that, let alone joining Li Ruan's sect, it was doubtful whether he could practice or not. Hearing this answer, Xu Changsheng felt relieved. Since he could not become an immortal or become an immortal, he should just be a mortal.
"It's okay, sister. I'm doing pretty well as I am now. I can survive at least."
It must be a lie to say that he has no regrets. He was just one step away from the immortal fate, but he didn't expect to be ruined by Gu Lingqing. Thinking of him, Xu Changsheng was filled with anger. He only beat him twice, but he
So cruel, I want to kill myself!
But what can we do? Now he has become a descendant of the immortal family, but he has become a mortal who is worse than ordinary people. He will still be happy and happy a hundred years later, but he will have become a piece of loess a hundred years later.
"Xiao Changsheng, I will take you back! I will definitely find a way to cure you!" Li Ruan said firmly while stroking Xu Changsheng's head.
Xu Changsheng looked at Li Ruan's watery eyes, but slowly shook his head, "Forget it, sister, I'm fine in this small town. I can be an ordinary person and don't need to trouble you. Besides, I don't want to
Become a cultivator."
Li Ruan was stunned. He didn't expect Xu Changsheng to say this. If you become an immortal or a cultivator, you can truly get rid of the shackles of the earth and fly among the endless sea of clouds. You can also live forever and be free. This is what many people dream of.
The opportunity. Now this opportunity is placed in front of Xu Changsheng. Although the opportunity is a bit slim, there is still a glimmer of hope, but now he has refused!
Li Ruan didn't believe it, thinking that Xu Changsheng must have been impulsive. But Xu Changsheng looked at Li Ruan calmly and shook his head again.
He shook his head, showing no other emotions at all.
"Can you tell me?" Li Ruan took back Xu Changsheng's right hand on his head.
Xu Changsheng thought for a while, organized his words and then said: "I was originally an ordinary person, a mud-legged person living in Weichen Lane. Although I was once one step away from immortality. But this was also the past. In these days, I
I also saw what it is to be an immortal and what an immortal is. The path to immortality is cruel and immortals are ruthless. I don’t want to be that kind of person. I just want to live well, be an ordinary person, and live my life in this small town.
Let's leave some incense at Old Xu's house so that I can take care of Aunt He."
In fact, Xu Changsheng still hasn't said the real reason. He really doesn't want to trouble others anymore. He has owed too many favors over the years.
Le'an, Aunt He, Liang Mi, Li Tui, Li Ruan, Tang Song, Shopkeeper Qian, Aunt Li, and Yan Beichen whom I met not long ago, as well as some ordinary people in the small town, have only gone through so many years,
I already owe so many favors.
And I don’t have any abilities, but there are so many people helping me all the time. In fact, sometimes when I think about it, I feel really ashamed. I really don’t want to trouble Li Ruan anymore this time.
Xu Changsheng still didn't tell Li Ruan that the town was about to be destroyed. Maybe she knew something. Although Le An said that he would definitely let himself live, it didn't matter even if it really perished with the town.
If I didn't have the help of so many people, I don't know where I would have died. After living for so many more years, I have actually made a lot of money, but I just couldn't repay them.
Li Ruan didn't expect Xu Changsheng, who looked like a child, to think so much in his mind, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was better for him to be an ordinary person.
After all, cultivation is not as simple as it sounds. The Dharma and Wealth Couple has trapped too many people, especially those who have no background and have become cultivators from ordinary people.
I can bring Xu Changsheng back to the sect, and even make him recover, but even if he recovers, he will definitely be no worse than others. I can protect him for a while, but can I really protect him for the rest of his life?
He may not have so many ideas when he is still young, but if he really grows up, can he stay under his protection with peace of mind? Even if he can, he may not be very happy.
On the contrary, it might be best if he stays in this small town, leaves him a sum of money, and lives his life as an ordinary person with peace of mind.
But when he heard what Xu Changsheng said, Li Ruan felt even more uncomfortable. In fact, Xu Changsheng's talent was quite good. He didn't dare to say that he would survive the tribulation, but there was still hope for his return to the truth.
But I didn't expect that after just a few days, Xu Changsheng would completely become an ordinary person. I thought that after decades, he would still look like this, but Xu Changsheng would become an old man with gray hair.
All of this was caused by Gu Lingqing from Lotus Lane, and the Gu family!
Li Ruan really couldn't help but want to call Li Tui and go to Lotus Lane now. Xu Changsheng was such a well-behaved child, but they were able to kill him. Don't think that Xu Changsheng is easy to bully because he has no father or mother, but
We need to let them know that Xu Changsheng also has a sister, Wu Zhenlou, and Li Ruan.
Thinking of this, Li Ruan couldn't help but stood up, touched Xu Changsheng's face, and said with a smile: "Xiao Changsheng, you should think about it again. Sister will go home first. There is no need to send tofu these days. I will call me
Dad will go and see you off. You can recover well at home. I will come see you tomorrow."
"Okay, then I'll see you off sister." Xu Changsheng wanted to get up, but was pushed back by Li Ruan. Xu Changsheng couldn't get up several times before he realized that his sister was an immortal. Then he gave up the resistance, and Li Ruan also revealed
A sly smile.
Seeing Li Ruan walk out of his courtyard, Xu Changsheng couldn't help but sit on his chair with tears streaming down his face.
"Sister, it's a pity that I can't live forever with you. I can only wish you eternal life."
Li Ruan walked out of the courtyard. He couldn't hold back any longer. He jumped onto the roof with murderous intent. With a slight click, he disappeared from the place and reappeared a few houses away.
