Master Fu does not envy immortals

Chapter 44 Last Words
"Okay." Jiang Qiongxing agreed, and then asked, "What's the name of that kid?"

"His name is Ji Cheyu, but he may have changed his name now..." Shi Yueren thought for a while, then waved his hand indifferently, "You can find it in that villa if you look for it. It's a boy who looks like a little girl."

Fine.

Jiang Qiongxing recalled the original book. Without this person, it probably has nothing to do with the main plot. Don't worry, he continued to ask: "What's the name of that villa?"

Shi Yueren froze: "Uh...that kid didn't say... You should go there and ask more, there shouldn't be many villas outside the city."

Jiang Qiongxing responded immediately.

After explaining these two things, Shi Yueren looked at the bare rocks outside the window and took a sip of wine: "Actually, I originally planned to bring you to the foundation building stage since I introduced you to the world of cultivating immortals."

Jiang Qiongxing lowered his eyes and pursed his lower lip almost invisibly.

"Unfortunately, the plan can't keep up with the changes." Shi Yueren looked at his unconscious lower body, and smiled, "Fortunately, the few friends I met in the early years were quite reliable, and one of them lived in a village near the capital. Although the cultivation base is not as high as mine, it is more than enough to take you along."

"I can do it by myself." Jiang Qiongxing said unconvinced.

She has lived two lifetimes anyway.

"Just you? Do you know which way the city gate where the cultivators live is open? Do you know how to enter the market for the cultivators?" Shi Yueren sneered, and finally said, "I will write a letter later, you take it there, and he will take good care of you."

Jiang Qiongxing remained silent.

Why does this person keep thinking about others even when he confesses his last words?

She took a breath, pressed back the soreness in her eyes, and asked pretendingly, "What about you? Is there anything you want to do that you haven't done yet, and I'll help you do it."

Shi Yueren was stunned.

After a while, he smiled and said, "Then take out the pen and paper, and I'll teach you how to draw communication symbols."

Jiang Qiongxing: "..."

What time is this, and I'm still thinking about teaching her how to draw talismans!
Although he was very speechless about this, Jiang Qiongxing obediently took out all the tools and continued to learn how to draw symbols on the broken wooden table that he found somewhere in Shi Yueren's hut.

Sunrise and sunset.

As time goes by, Shi Yueren's health is getting worse and worse.

First I lost feeling in my hands, then my arms, waist, chest and abdomen...

In the end, he was like a high paraplegic patient, only the parts above the neck could move.

He watched as his body stiffened little by little.

Even for an ordinary person, it is difficult to accept that he can only linger on the bed, let alone Shi Yueren is a cultivator.

Still a swordsman.

For a while, Jiang Qiongxing didn't understand whether it was a good thing or a bad thing that the life that the spirit vein gave him for the past few days was a good thing or a bad thing. As a sword cultivator, perhaps dying in the battle with the enemy would be the most satisfactory ending.

"Oh——" Shi Yueren suddenly let out a long sigh.

Jiang Qiongxing immediately looked up at him.

I just heard this person say to himself: "Fortunately, I have already finished the wine, otherwise I can only watch but can't drink at this time, what a blood loss."

"..." This is what you sighed about?

Jiang Qiongxing lost his pen and was about to go out.

"Hey, why are you going?" Shi Yueren moved his eyes.

"Don't you want to drink? Go buy you wine." She turned her back to him and said in a muffled voice.

"Forget it, do you know how to get to the nearby town?" Shi Yueren paused, and added, "And after the spirit vein exploded, the remaining maze is still around the valley, so you better stop running around."

"Don't think of me as such a waste, no matter what I do, I will be able to refine Qi, okay?" Jiang Qiongxing said.

Shi Yueren laughed twice, but still disagreed: "Don't run around, lest when I die, an old man is alone in this wilderness, how pitiful it is."

This time Jiang Qiongxing had nothing to say, and sat back sullenly.

"Xiao Jiang, don't you think it's strange? I knew I was going to die, but I kept you by my side all the time, insisting that you watch me die." Shi Yueren said again.

Just as Jiang Qiongxing picked up the pen, he heard this sentence, and looked at him incomprehensibly.

How old is a person, and he still speaks so openly.

She deliberately sarcastically said: "Isn't it because I want to help you take care of the funeral?"

"We immortal cultivators never pay attention to funeral affairs. It doesn't matter where we die, it's just a body." Shi Yueren said indifferently.

"Why is that?" Jiang Qiongxing asked.

Shi Yueren's fingers curled up by his side moved almost invisibly, as if he wanted to wave to her: "Come here."

Not knowing what he wanted to do, Jiang Qiongxing put down his pen and sat on the small stool beside the bed.

Shi Yueren's eyes met hers.

The old man's eyelids drooped feebly, covering most of his pupils, but those eyes were not as cloudy as those of a dying person, and were still as bright as when Jiang Qiongxing saw him for the first time.

It seems to be able to look directly into the bottom of people's hearts.

"I want you to remember that death is nothing to be afraid of." He paused every word, "There is actually no difference between living and dying—do you believe in an afterlife?"

Jiang Qiongxing subconsciously wanted to say that he didn't believe it, but suddenly remembered the strange time travel that happened to him, and the words changed into: "... Believe it."

Shi Yueren's eyes showed a bit of a smile: "You have to remember, people who cultivate immortals are in danger of death at all times, but don't shrink back, cowardly people, it is difficult to get on the road... There is nothing terrible about death, it is nothing more than starting from the beginning..."

He didn't know where the strength came from, and suddenly raised his clenched hand tremblingly, and moved towards Jiang Qiongxing.

Jiang Qiongxing vaguely guessed something and reached out his hand.

Shi Yueren's five fingers loosened slightly, and the last storage ring fell into her palm: "You...alone...don't be afraid..."

After saying this sentence, the light in his eyes completely disappeared, his eyes closed slowly, and the hand dropped down.

Shi Yueren went to find his afterlife.

Jiang Qiongxing looked at the storage ring that had just lost its owner in his palm, and his thoughts seemed to freeze for a moment. After a long time, a tear flowed from his sour eyes.

This drop of tear was like the switch of the lacrimal gland. The little girl sitting beside the bed still had a dazed expression, but the tears couldn't stop falling.

Since coming to this world, it was not the first time she had seen death.

Jiang Hu did not do what a father should do, so his death did not cause any waves in Jiang Qiongxing's heart.

But Shi Yue was different. He helped her drive away her aunt's family who had evil intentions, and led her to escape from that mysterious organization. Although he didn't get along for long, he was already the person Jiang Qiongxing respected most in this world.

Be like a teacher like a father.

Even though he never admitted that he was her master.
