Chapter 76 Sword Immortal Wants to Sleep in Brother Li's Bed
"It's less than half a month."
Li Yi recalled the last time he discussed swords, it was only ten days ago, not a long time. However, based on the concept of time in this era, it seems that half a month is considered a long time since we saw each other.
"About Jijili." Dong Yunshu was obviously very concerned about this matter, with a rare curiosity in his eyes.
"Women in the Zhou Dynasty are allowed to marry, and they are gifted. In ancient times, Jiji ceremony was a coming-of-age ceremony for aristocratic women. In modern times, anyone who has money can do it." Li Yi explained, "However, with the development of the times, this coming-of-age ceremony has become more and more important. It’s like turning into a marriage urging ceremony. The elders remind you that you are an adult and you are going to start a family.”
"It's not just women, in fact, men's crown ceremonies also have similar effects. In the final analysis, they are all for urging marriage."
Dong Yunshu nodded slightly, and then asked: "Then Brother Li, can't you not attend?"
Fellow Daoist Xue Ye, is your focus wrong?
“I participated in the Jiji ceremony as a relative, not as a guest.”
Li Yi suddenly felt a sense of peeping, turned his head and saw his parents hiding behind the door, looking at them with their heads lowered and raised.
"This girl is so handsome..."
"It seems that the relationship with my son is unusual, there are dramas."
"I'm guessing it's very strange. They are so beautiful, I'm afraid they don't like our family..."
"You old bastard, this is called a love match. Didn't you see that the girl was going to stick to her son? I think there must be a play."
Dong Yunshu obviously felt it too, turned his head to look, and then bowed very politely and said, "Hello, uncle and aunt."
Seeing that Li's father and Li's mother did not continue to hide when they were discovered, they walked out of the room and looked at the big girl in front of them, their eyes burst into laughter.
Father Li asked: "May I ask who you are?"
Taking a closer look, the more you look, the more frightened you become. She looks more beautiful than the stars on TV, and her temperament is nothing to say.
Wearing a pair of white long-sleeved and jeans, it is so ordinary that she wears a feeling of "flying fish and wild goose, making noise, shy flowers closing moon flowers and trembling". This is definitely not an ordinary girl.
Li Xingguo thought of that Baishi back then. The brat in his family seemed to be very popular with women.
why?
Father Li looked at Li Yi who was lying on the bamboo chair like a salted fish. Although he had great confidence in his son, he was somewhat unworthy compared to the woman in front of him.
The gap is really too big, do flowers like to be stuck in shit?
Li Yi blinked, feeling slightly puzzled by his father's eyes just now, who did I provoke?
Dong Yunshu replied softly: "Little girl Dong Yunshu, from Tianque Mountain in Qidi, is brother Li's Taoist companion. Uncles and aunts can just call me Yunshu."
Taoist companion...
Li Yi always had a weird feeling. He knew that his parents would misunderstand, but he didn't know how to refute. It seems that there is no problem, but it seems to be a big problem.
As soon as these words came out, Father Li's eyes widened, his expression unsure of himself.
"Girl, you haven't been cheated, have you?"
Although the word Taoist couple sounds strange, he doesn't know what these young people are playing, but he can still understand the meaning.
If their family is rich and powerful, he will believe it if they are not sure, or Li Yi is very handsome just to show off. But obviously these two things have nothing to do with each other. She has neither money nor sex. Why would such an outstanding girl find a rural family?
This is no longer a question of self-confidence, but a social experience. Li Xingguo has lived for fifty years. He was a junior high school teacher at first, and later he entered the society and did various jobs in order to earn money. He has seen all kinds of life.
"Huh?" Li Yi felt that he was lying on the gun again for no reason.
At this time, Li's mother grabbed Li Xingguo's ear and said, "What do you mean if you are cheated? Can you speak? If someone likes you and looks like a man, how can you, a monster, talk?"
"Hey, hey, no money and no color, what is the girl up to? I was surprised."
"Girl, don't Yun Shu, don't pay attention to what this old thing says."
"Yeah." Dong Yunshu nodded slightly, if word of that well-behaved appearance spread, it would definitely shock the jaws of everyone in the world.
Sword Immortal Xue Ye is a ruthless person who proves his way by killing. Whether it is in the previous life or in this life, he has killed from the beginning to the end, and established his reputation step by step. It's not like it is now, she is as quiet as a virgin, like a gentle classical beauty.
Looking at Dong Yunshu who got along well with his parents, Li Yi suddenly felt that this was a premeditated arrival.
With Dong Yunshu's cultivation, he can completely hide his figure and only let himself see it. Moreover, she usually wears Taoist robes, but she changed into ordinary clothes today, obviously she came prepared.
After the two sides chatted for a while, Mother Li dragged Father Li away.
"We two old guys won't bother you, you guys have fun. Oops, I suddenly remembered that I'm going to help your uncle's house, and we won't be coming back tonight."
"Didn't you just rent a restaurant?" Father Li looked confused. He didn't receive any news to help, so he just needs to be there on time tomorrow.
"Don't you need help renting a restaurant?" Li's mother frowned, and forced him to sit on the motorcycle, then turned her head and repeated.
"The two of us will not be coming back tonight, and there are no people on this mountain, so be careful."
After speaking, with the sound of the motorcycle engine, the two old couples gradually moved away.
Only Dong Yunshu and Li Yi were left in the yard. The two looked at each other and did not speak freely because they were the only ones left, but fell into silence.
Silence is the theme of getting along between the two, and communication has never been necessary for them.
Li Yi closed his eyes again, enjoying a rare afternoon nap. And Dong Yunshu moved a small bench and sat next to Li Yi, without making too much noise, just sat there quietly.
The wind blows the leaves, the crisp sound of birds, the chirping of insects, and the two can feel their respective breaths.
It seems to have returned to the previous life, and there is no need for too much verbal and physical contact, just need to feel each other's existence.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Yi woke up from his nap, and the sun was no longer as poisonous as it was at noon. Turning his head slightly, he saw a pair of clear eyes staring at him for an unknown amount of time.
Li Yi asked: "Have you been watching me sleep?"
During sleep, Li Yi turns off all senses, leaving only the sense of heaven and man that does not affect sleep, otherwise it is no different from being awake.
Dong Yunshu tilted his head slightly to the right, with a slightly puzzled expression, he said, "Is it not possible?"
"It's up to you." Li Yi really couldn't say no to Xue Ye on such a trivial matter.
Dong Yunshu asked again: "Brother Li likes to sleep? Is this also practice?"
She could feel that Li Yi closed all his perceptions and even his soul together for the sake of sleep, so as to achieve real sleep.
"I just feel so comfortable." Li Yi shook his head and replied.
Cultivation in the eyes of the world has no meaning to him now. What Dong Yunshu said should be at a higher level, which belongs to the comprehension of Tao.
Someone sat in front of the Buddha for a thousand years, and suddenly became an arhat.
Some people have tasted the sufferings of the world of mortals, and they are born out of an epiphany, ascending to the gods.
There are also people who eat and drink, play games in the world, and comprehend many supernatural powers. Li Yi belongs to this kind, and he is practicing all the time, improving his understanding of Tao. It's a pity that this situation only lasted until he was four thousand years old. From then on, it was difficult to improve half a point, and he could only find a sense of progress from those supernatural powers.
He hasn't practiced for a long time, and he doesn't know where he is going.
Li Yi turned over, took out his phone and started to watch videos, turning over from time to time and scratching his butt.
Dong Yunshu sat beside him quietly as before.
She felt that Li Yi had really changed a lot. He used to be like a fairy walking in the world of mortals. Although free in the mundane, but not stained with a trace of mortals.
Li Hua once said: Whether it's healing the sick or saving lives, or being a hero, it's always an act of will, and Dong Yunshu really felt it.
But now Li Yi seems like a mortal through and through, completely integrated into the mortal world, and Xue Ye can't see the slightest incongruity. Even the slightly irritable mood when I just woke up, and the boring mood of watching videos at the moment, are exactly the same as ordinary people.
How did he do it?
It is difficult to be born into the world, but it is even more difficult to join the world.
The longer people live, the harder it is for them to reintegrate into the world of mortals. They are used to the coldness in the mountains, and they are used to opening and closing their eyes for dozens of springs, summers, autumns and winters. It is almost impossible to turn back into a mortal again, and even if one loses one's cultivation, this status quo cannot be changed.
It’s like a doctor who lost all his academic qualifications and went back to elementary school again, so he wouldn’t be unable to do addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, let alone pinch his fingers.
Dong Yunshu didn't ask any questions, but looked at Li Yi quietly, without leaving his eyes for a moment.
night.
Li Yi saw that Dong Yunshu hadn't left yet, and asked, "Are you really planning to stay overnight?"
"Is it not possible?" Dong Yunshu's eyes were as clear as ever.
Zhoudi is so big, the investigation will definitely take a few days.
"..." Li Yi finally nodded and said: "Yes, but there is only one bed in my room. If you don't mind, you can sleep in mine, or in my parents' bed."
"I…"
Dong Yunshu just wanted to say that he didn't need to sleep, just sit anywhere. But she hesitated because she heard "you can sleep with me".
These words kept echoing in her mind.
If... If I want to sleep, can I sleep in Brother Li's bed?
I'm really too smart.
"I won't bother my uncles and aunts."
"Then you can sleep with me."
Li Yi entered his parents' room, lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.
On the other side, Dong Yunshu stood nervously by the bed, looking at the single bed with the quilt and pillow neatly folded, not knowing where to start.
She joined the Heavenly Sword Sect since she was a child, and she has never slept since she was seven years old. Sleep is a very strange thing to her.
Jade hands touched the quilt, and Li Yi's smell came from it.
Brother Li, please allow me to overstep again.
Dong Yunshu lay on the bed and tucked herself into the quilt without even showing her head. Her body was fitted to the quilt, and her hair was scattered, leaving her breath on the bed.
In this way, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep without any precaution.
It's amazing, this is the first time she fell asleep since practicing.
In the next room, Li Yi opened his eyes, and he felt the energy coming from the next door.
"It looks like I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Dong Yunshu should be in a certain critical period, he has some insights in practice, and he must not be disturbed by others. To be on the safe side, he decided to play on his phone all night tonight.
—
The next morning.
A black car stopped at the foot of the mountain, and three people got out of the car, two men and one woman.
They are Xie Yunan, Zhao Si, and Lu Haochu who is dressed up and dressed like a dog.
The two men came here by invitation, and Xie Yunan is the person in charge of this area. This kind of thing is not too big or too small. Originally, she didn't intend to join in the fun. On weekdays, the cadres of their company worked enough overtime, and there was no need to find trouble for themselves by working an average of fifteen hours a day.
However, just yesterday Xie Yunan got the news that all the wealthy families flocked here, and the sons and brothers of many aristocratic families were going to participate in this wedding ceremony. Those who didn't know thought it was the Shangshu, or even the daughter of the first assistant who was waiting to be married.
So Xie Yunan had no choice but to intervene in this matter, to prevent any accidents, and to protect the safety of these children in the big courtyard by the way, lest they mess with people they shouldn't.
In terms of causing trouble, Xie Yunan believes in the ability of these big courtyard children.
Lu Haochu looked nervously at his suit, and asked, "Zhao Si, is it okay to wear it like this? Is it too ostentatious? Miss Xie, what do you think of my outfit?"
Xie Yunan glanced at it, and said concisely: "An insurance seller."
"Day, is there still time to change clothes?" Lu Haochu's flustered appearance did not have the treacherous and imposing manner of the past, after all, this is an opportunity for the ancestor's grave to fly into the sky.
Zhao Si patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Relax, you don't really think you can be chosen, do you? Just treat it as running with him. There are so many rich and noble sons, how can it be your turn?"
"Rolling, can't you say something nice?" Lu Haochu threw off Zhao Si's dog paw, took a deep breath and then exhaled, the panic and nervousness gradually subsided.
As an orthodox monk of Taoism, he pays special attention to the cultivation of xinxing, and reciting the xinfa silently can naturally suppress this messy emotion.
"It's good to have a familiar face, I'm lucky to have it, and don't force it if I can't."
The three of them walked up the mountain along the gravel road. Although the mountain road was small, it was extremely smooth. It was obviously smoothed by mud, but it was as hard as concrete.
Walking a hundred and eighty steps, I saw an old buffalo at the corner, and the old buffalo was stepping on the road aimlessly.
The next moment, Xie Yunan and Lu Haochu's expressions became serious. They could see that the slight fluctuation of each foot of the buffalo would flatten the soil.
This cow has cultivation!
Lu Haochu asked in a low voice: "Miss Xie, this is probably a spirit beast. The company doesn't seem to have a record."
The breath of the buffalo is natural, without any evil spirit. For this kind of non-human creature with cultivation, the current government collectively refers to it as a spirit beast.
On the contrary, cannibalism is called a demon.
However, no demon has been found for the time being. It is affected by environmental (spiritual energy) factors, and there are also certain objective reasons. The long-term dominance of human beings on the earth has left a deep-rooted imprint on all living things, and none of the surviving species feeds on human beings. Creatures with higher IQs are either close to humans or far away from humans.
Lu Haochu has read some files about spirit beasts, and there is an ape in Baishan Nature Reserve who has opened up his mind. After being discovered, the first reaction was not the rise of the planet of the apes, but honestly taking refuge in the government, and now it is still offering delicious food in a certain research institute, and I heard that the foundation is about to be established.
There is also a panda in the zoo. It is said that he was born with visions, and he can twist the steel bars in the park into twists as soon as he opens his mind. But even so, there was no harm to others, and he was honestly waiting for the government to feed him.
At least for now, there is no such fierce human-monster conflict in the practice world in modern times.
"There is no record." Xie Yunan shook his head, "But in this mountain, there is a high probability that it is that spirit beast. Just record it later."
Normally speaking, if any pet or poultry has activated intelligence, the government will come to ask for it and give some compensation. From what she knew, it was usually around a million.
The old buffalo turned his head and glanced at them, then continued to step on the ground. This is the task Li Yi assigned to it, to repair all the roads in the mountains, so that it will be convenient to travel in the future.
Not only to make the buffalo better construction, Li Yi also got a little civil engineering knowledge from the Internet.
Now it is planning a road to the cabbage field.
Walking another hundred and eighty steps, they saw a small bungalow with two bedrooms, a kitchen, a toilet, and a longan tree in the yard.
Suddenly a yellow dog sprang out, very fast and arrived beside them in the blink of an eye.
Another spirit beast?
The big yellow dog hugged Zhao Si's leg, his tail almost flew up.
"Wow woof!"
Benefactor!
"Rolling." Zhao Si's face darkened, but no matter how he swung his feet, he couldn't get rid of the yellow dog.
"Damn it, you've reached the fifth level of Qi refining."
Zhao Si felt the breath of this yellow dog, and felt a sense of frustration for some reason.
Dragging the yellow dog into the yard, Li Yi was squatting next to the faucet, brushing his teeth and washing his hands.
Zhao Sidao: "Brother Yi, you just woke up."
Xie Yunan and Lu Haochu bowed their hands respectfully.
"No, I didn't sleep all night last night." Li Yi shook his head and replied.
This was originally an ordinary answer. For monks, sleep is not necessary. Many people use meditation instead of sleep. But the next moment, the three of them looked like they had seen a ghost.
A beautiful woman, wearing white long-sleeved jeans, with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes, came out of Li Yi's room.
"Brother Li, good morning."
Sword Immortal? !
The three of them gasped, recalling the sentence just now that they didn't sleep all night, hiss...
This is shocking gossip. If it gets out, it will destroy the unity of China!
