The Lotus Lantern is with you
Chapter 25 Young Chen Xiangxiu
He opened his eyes and looked around in a daze. The shabby wooden house was full of lanterns beside the bed, and a kerosene lamp on the table had already been extinguished.
This is his home?He is back?Mo Chen rubbed his forehead, barely suppressing the dizziness of traveling through time and space.
He stood up and felt the power in his body. Although he went back to the past, fortunately his power didn't disappear.Through the water mirror, he looked at his current appearance. In the mirror, the young boy had long black hair reaching his waist, and his thin body was under the rough brown clothes. After all, he was not from a wealthy family. It looks a little thinner.
On the slender neck is the sky eye pierced by black thread. Unexpectedly, the sky eye came to this world with him this day, so what about the sky eye on Jian's body?If it is said that he traveled thousands of years ago, the existence of the two celestial eyes at the same time can be explained by their different timelines, then the celestial eye is still on him now, which only means that the one on Jian's body is likely to disappear.
I really want to know Jian's reaction now, Mo Chen thought a little unscrupulously.
There was already light coming in from the window, he heard the heavy footsteps outside the door, he quickly removed the water mirror, and in the blink of an eye, he cleaned himself up.
He wasn't worried that Jian would find out when he used mana, after all, he was using the power of hell now.I don't know what is going on with Jian now, he has missed him for a whole millennium, although this is not what he wants.Now he is impatient to rush to the Temple of the True Monarch, but the rationality in his heart suppresses this impulse again.
Don't forget, you have a major task to do. He has caught the demons who escaped hell seven or eight times, but there will always be two or three cunning ones who escaped from him repeatedly.
He must get them back as soon as possible.
"Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang..." There were several knocks on the door, and then a middle-aged man in black walked in.He looked thin and pale, and seemed to be frail.When Mo Chen saw his father, remembering that he didn't even accompany him to the last moment when his father passed away in the previous life, his nose was sore, and he was about to cry.
Liu Yanchang was a little surprised that the boy woke up so early. If it had been in the past, the boy would still be sound asleep with his head covered.He didn't notice anything unusual about the young man, because Mo Chen quickly changed his emotions.
"Chen Xiang, today is your birthday. Dad ordered a new dress for you a few days ago. I'll take you to have a look later." Liu Yanchang said, while smoothing the boy's long hair, he felt a little puzzled. Is the boy's hair so long?But he immediately put this doubt behind him.
When the middle-aged man said this, Mo Chen, it should be said that Chen Xiang finally remembered it. He remembered that on his 12th birthday, his father took him to buy clothes, and then he was teased a little by the shopkeeper.
Sure enough, when Liu Yanchang took Chen Xiang to pick up the clothes, the shopkeeper patted Chen Xiang on the shoulder jokingly, "I said, old Liu, it's really hard work for you to be both a father and a mother, and even take care of the children's clothes by yourself. It’s really rare to see a father like you now. I said you, why not just marry another daughter-in-law to reduce the burden on yourself.” Chen Xiang frowned at the store’s words, and he knew the store was joking, but a 12-year-old boy But don't know.
"My father doesn't need it! My father only likes my mother, so stop talking nonsense." The young man pretended to be reckless and shouted at the shopkeeper.After finishing speaking, he tugged on his father's sleeve anxiously, looking pitiful.
"Okay, Chen Xiang, I'm just joking." Liu Yanchang was amused by the young man's expression, and he said gently to the shopkeeper, "Boss, don't make fun of me, you know I only have my wife in my heart, besides, I, Liu Yanchang I am a poor person, so why let the girl suffer with me." He exchanged a few words with the boss, and hurried back home with the boy with the clothes he had finished.
It was a rare boy's birthday, so the lunch was naturally very rich, Liu Yanchang served Chen Xiang with vegetables, and at the same time reminded the boy about his studies.After a long time, he found that the boy didn't interrupt him impatiently as usual, but rather absent-minded.
"Chenxiang, Chenxiang?" The man knocked on the boy's bowl, frowning and asked, "What are you thinking, you don't even eat your favorite chicken drumsticks."
The boy was indeed thinking about something, he was half-sad, half-hesitant, "Father, today is my birthday, but my mother is not by my side, I miss my mother."
The boy hadn't mentioned the matter of San ShengMu for several years, probably the boss's words today reminded him of his own mother.The boy's sad tone gave the man a hard time. Even though he was able to take good care of the boy, he couldn't replace the love that a mother can give.
The man patted the boy's shoulder comfortingly, and he said earnestly, "Chen Xiang, you are already 12 years old." In a word, let Chen Xiang understand that what his father said meant that he was already a man and should be stronger.
Taking advantage of this, Chen Xiang looked at his father solemnly and said, "Father, I want to go out and travel for a while, and I am determined to do something great. Chen Xiang is not willing to stay in this village forever." The young man's firm gaze stunned the man, He didn't understand why the boy who was still immature before suddenly had such great ambitions.
But he didn't think too much, but resolutely refused, "No, Chen Xiang, you are still young, how can I rest assured that you go out alone, and your studies are too poor." The man only hopes that the boy will be an ordinary person, Living an ordinary life, the outside world is so dangerous, if there is something wrong with Chen Xiang, he really doesn't know how to explain it to the Holy Mother.
"Father!" Chen Xiang knelt on the ground suddenly, such a formal address and behavior surprised Liu Yanchang, he stood up and took a few steps back, looking in surprise at the young man who seemed to be mature for a moment.
"Father, Chen Xiang doesn't want to become a person who does nothing in the future. Chen Xiang wants to become a man who stands up to the sky. Please agree to my request. I will definitely protect myself and will not let you down."
The boy's unwavering tone and the courage and determination in his eyes made Liu Yanchang seem to see the birth of a strong man in the future. He is their hope. He should be happy when his son grows up, but Chen Xiang and others children are different.
The man tightened his hands, he hesitated for a moment, he thought of San ShengMu's exhortation, but he couldn't refuse the now brand new boy.
He thought for a while, and said ruthlessly, "Chen Xiang, as a father, I can't promise you." Seeing the young man's disappointed expression, he continued, "But if you can get No.1 in the next test, I will promise you. "
The boy's grades are terrible, Liu Yanchang knows all about it, it is definitely a difficult process for him to be promoted from the last place to No.1, there are only two weeks before the test, and the boy can pick up a few years in two weeks. Pulled down for homework?That's almost impossible.Liu Yanchang said this just because he knew this, he thought that the young man would retreat in spite of the difficulties, but he made a mistake, the young man not only did not back down, but smiled confidently.
"Father, since you said so, you can't break your promise. If I do it, you have to agree to my request." At that time, the boy's confident expression made him feel relieved.
Our child has grown up, San Shengma, I have not taught him in vain in the past 12 years, the future of this child is immeasurable.
Liu Yanchang read silently to the moon, he thought that if Chen Xiang really studied as hard as he said these two weeks, even if he did not fulfill the request, he would agree to his request, but what he did not expect was that after two weeks, , the boy not only did it, but also won the appreciation of his master.
Chen Xiang has read the books that are cherished all over the world. Having lived for nearly ten thousand years, he easily passed a quiz in the mortal world. Although, his unique thinking caused him to be pulled by his master to have a long talk.But after a few sticks of incense, the master said that this is a malleable talent, and his son has no potential.
In desperation, or in relief, Liu Yanchang looked at the resolute young man in front of him, and slowly walked into the bedroom.
Chen Xiang was a little apprehensive, he looked at his father's tired back, and felt a little sad, his father was getting old unknowingly, he was sick, but he couldn't stay here to take care of him.
He felt a little sore in his heart. Parents always try their best to prevent their children from being harmed. Chen Xiang naturally knew that his father would make this request not only to test him, but also to protect him. But as children, they But he couldn't tell his father the truth.
This is what Kong told him at the beginning. History cannot be changed, but he can take advantage of the loopholes in the law. Now he still needs to save his mother step by step.
Just as he was thinking, he heard the man's heavy footsteps.The man held a kit in his hand and handed it to Chen Xiang carefully.The man said, "Chen Xiang, this is the money I have saved over the years. I originally wanted to use it for you to start a business or marry a wife when you grow up, but now I can only give it to you in advance. You must pretend to be good, be careful outside, and don't be frizzy..." Listening to his father's nagging instructions, Chen Xiang felt pain in his heart.
Just mentioned marrying a wife, Chen Xiang thought that he still had a fiancée, and said quickly, "Father, I remember you once told me that I have a fiancée?"
Liu Yanchang was slightly startled, and explained in detail the matter of getting married at the fingertips, Chen Xiang thought about it, and said, "Father, let's call off this marriage, now there are dangers around me, so I won't let other girls and I get married." I suffered together."
Liu Yanchang thought that what the young man said was reasonable, so he nodded in agreement, and said that he would go to Ding's mansion to discuss the matter the next day.Although it may affect the relationship between the two families, life is always the most important thing.
Chen Xiang thought of the intricate relationship between the four of them because of his marriage contract in his previous life, and continued troubles afterwards. Thinking of the eighth prince's cutting off his robe, Xiaoyu's departure, and Ding Xiang's madness, he was full of guilt.
This time, I will not repeat the mistakes of the past, he silently promised.
It was the early morning of the second day, Chen Xiang didn't bring too many things, just some dry food and a pot of water, and he was ready to go on the road. He bought an ordinary horse at the market, and after bidding farewell to Liu Yanchang, he did not hesitate. He drove his horse eastward.
Of course, before he left, he subtly eliminated the disease in his father's body. Although his father would still cough for a few days to prevent being suspected, the disease could be completely eradicated within two weeks.
All the way, he was farther and farther away from Liujia Village, and the appearance of the young man gradually changed. His waist-length hair, which was originally controlled by magic power, instantly fell to his knees.His mana became more and more pure and powerful, and his hair was also growing crazily. This also gave him a headache for a while, but now he is used to this length.
The color of the boy's clothing darkened little by little, and in just a moment, a black and red-striped robe emerged, and with the boy's movements, the wide long pendant fluttered.The maroon red horse under the young man turned into a huge white tiger after a burst of blue light flashed.
Chen Xiang rushed all the way to Jinxia Cave, but unexpectedly found that Master Yuding had closed himself.That guy who is always lazy has actually retreated?It's incredible, Chen Xiang thought, leaving a letter in Yuding's cave.After that, he hurriedly went to Huashan again, looked at his mother in the center of the lake with some guilt, said sorry silently, and left in a hurry.
Finally, he stared in the direction of the Zhenjun Temple, hesitating whether he should take a look.But before he could think about it, there was a dark force faintly coming from the southeast, and this familiar aura came from hell.
Chen Xiang tightened the ax in his hand, his work came.
This is his home?He is back?Mo Chen rubbed his forehead, barely suppressing the dizziness of traveling through time and space.
He stood up and felt the power in his body. Although he went back to the past, fortunately his power didn't disappear.Through the water mirror, he looked at his current appearance.
