"Immortal, why didn't you tell your father that Prime Minister Gao was collaborating with the enemy and traitorous to the country? Letting him go into exile for thousands of miles would be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain. This is absolutely unacceptable."

The mouse spirit had already returned to her body, turned into a Taoist priest again, and said after Jiang Yan.

"Because he won't live long, it doesn't make any difference whether he says it or not." On the surface, he was exiled for thousands of miles, but in fact, even if the emperor didn't know that he was collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country, the emperor would not let him go, just because he sent the snake He went to the emperor's side.

The mouse nodded knowingly, it seems that he still overestimated the emperor, and really thought he would not mind, so it was just a superficial phenomenon.

In fact, this kind of thing is also easy to understand. Even if you are not an emperor, you are just an ordinary person. You will be vigilant when facing people who have put yourself in danger, let alone an emperor. The ability to kill people without anyone noticing.

As for whether the emperor can find out that Prime Minister Gao is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, it doesn't matter anymore. The war between the two countries cannot be solved in a day or two at all, nor can it be solved by executing one or two people. It is a long-term development.

Xiao Cui stood in the middle of the courtyard, looking at the cloudless sky, just now there were dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and now there is no sign of rain, but her heart is beating non-stop, always It feels like something is happening.

What the fox is most afraid of is thunder, but now that he has been able to cultivate into immortals, ordinary thunder can no longer cause harm to them, at most it is just a psychological effect, but the rumbling thunder just now gave her a long-lost of fear.

"Xiao Cui, what are you looking at?"

Yuanfeng walked out of the room, and what he saw was Xiaocui looking up at the sky. When he looked up, there was nothing but the blue sky and the sun, just like in the past.

"Yuanfeng, today my father-in-law is going to court to expose the snake spirit's conspiracy. The snake spirit will be eliminated."

"Of course, didn't my parents say that the evil can't outshine the righteous? The emperor is a real dragon, and he can definitely kill the snake spirit."

What Yuanfeng said was Wang Yuanzhi's comforting words. Xiao Cui knew that if the snake monster could be eliminated, it must not be the emperor's doing. It is impossible for a mortal to eliminate the monster without cultivation.

Jiang Yan is not at home now, maybe he will get rid of the snake spirit.

With a long sigh of relief, no matter how many snake spirits are removed, it has nothing to do with her. She is just disturbed by the thunder and looks at Yuanfeng, "I'm hungry, let's go to the kitchen to see if there is any food. If you don’t have any snacks, bring some back to eat.”

"Okay, okay, let's water the bamboo when we are full, it will definitely grow taller."

Yuanfeng happily took Xiaocui's hand, and the two went to the kitchen.

The bamboo shoots planted before have broken through the ground and are growing at a speed visible to the naked eye almost every day. Yuanfeng has to water them every day and take care of them with Xiaocui, hoping that they can grow up quickly.

Wang Yuanzhi came back very late that day, because such a big incident happened to Gein, even if the court was not in a mess, there were still many things to deal with, but it can be seen that his mood was much higher than the previous days , should be the reason why the evil ministers have been eliminated.

At night, in the bamboo forest hundreds of miles away from the capital, Xiaocui looked at the empty fox cave. There was no one in it. Her mother, who was unwilling to leave the fox cave easily, did not know where she went.

I asked the little monsters around, and they all said that my mother went out a few days ago and never came back. Before leaving, she settled these little monsters, and it seemed that she had made a plan not to come back for a long time.

After settling these little monsters, they didn't leave a word to her.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she looked over in surprise, but when she saw clearly who was coming, her hope turned into disappointment.

"you are?"

"I am a mouse spirit who has practiced for 300 years. Your husband-in-law's elder brother asked me to come." The mouse spirit raised the letter in his hand.

Xiao Cui could tell that she had sent the letter to Jiang Yan an hour ago, and wanted to ask him what happened, but her intuition told her that the lightning and thunder during the day must have something to do with her mother.

"Brother, do you have anything to tell me?"

"He asked me to tell you that your mother fled to the lower realm because she stole the night pearl from the Heavenly Court. She kept her house behind closed doors all these years because she was afraid of being found. The thunder and lightning during the day were brought by the God of Thunder who came to capture her, but you Mother was not caught, but ran away, so I can't meet you."

Shu Jing repeated Jiang Yan's words faithfully, word for word.

"My mother ran away? Where did she go?"

"I don't know about that, but I guess I went to some deep mountain to practice. In short, you must have a chance to meet again." Shu Jing saw that Xiaocui was in a daze. He had never met Yu Ji, but from him Looking at the Wang family during this time, the relationship between their mother and daughter should not be very good.

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say, let's go first." The mouse spirit changed back to its original shape, and instead of going back to Wang's house, it got into the mountain.

Jiang Yan broke up his cultivation base by [-]% to [-]%, and after experiencing such a thing as a snake spirit, he needs to find a place to practice. He should just stay quietly on the mountain for the past few years and not go out to mix with the world.

Xiao Cui stayed in the fox cave until it was dark before going back. She knew that her mother just didn't want to meet her. She had sensed in advance that the God of Thunder would come to catch her and had time to settle down. How could these little demons on the mountain not have time? Come and meet her.

Now that she's not caught by Thor, let's wish her the best of luck.

As for whether there is a chance to meet again in the future, it depends on fate. In the past few years, their mother and daughter have met each other in the fox cave every day. Don't expect how much mother-daughter love can be inspired by the separation of the two places.

Back at Wang's house, looking at Yuan Feng who was sleeping soundly with his pillow in his arms under the morning light, she had already regarded this place as her home before she knew it, so let her live here for the rest of her life.

As for what happened next, we'll talk about it later, she doesn't want to think about it now.

"Huh? Xiao Cui, you got up, it's so early."

Yuanfeng opened his eyes in a daze, and what he saw was Xiaocui who was fully dressed and said.

"It's still early, you should sleep a little longer."

"Okay, I'll sleep for a while."

As soon as Yuanfeng finished speaking, his breathing became even again. He fell asleep so quickly and never worried about anything. Xiao Cui felt that she could learn from Yuanfeng. worry.

Life is good, there are people waiting for you, my parents-in-law are kind, and the only thing I have to do every day is to read books, recite poems, plant flowers and take care of bamboo. There is really nothing to worry about.

Jiang Yan noticed that since Xiao Cui came back from the Fox Cave, she became more cheerful. Although she was not the gloomy type before, she was always pulled by Yuan Feng to play with her. Now she began to take the initiative to play with Yuan Feng Find fun things to do together.

Wang Yuanzhi and his wife also saw this. After experiencing the snake spirit entering the palace, Wang Yuanzhi finally realized the insignificance of human beings. They are richer than ordinary people, but there is no difference in essence.

He has two sons, one is born unable to marry a wife and have children, and the other is as stupid as a child. Before, he always thought that this is not the fate they should have. of.

But now that the snake essence has entered the palace, what else in this world should not be?

His Majesty was harmed by the snake essence, and he had been diagnosed and treated by the imperial doctor not long ago. Before the snake essence entered the palace, even though he was not as good as those sage monarchs in history, he was still diligent in governing and caring for the people. But it also ended up like this.

The only prince is still young, and the neighboring countries are eyeing on him. The future of the once illustrious dynasty is uncertain now.

Compared with the whole country, the affairs of their royal family can be figured out. Now he only hopes that the dynasty can survive, at least when his son is still alive, there will be no suffering from wars, and even more he can't The literati who went to the battlefield did not dare to ask for extravagance.

The snake venom of the snake essence is very powerful. In his memory, Yuan Feng was already infected with the snake venom just because he was under her control, not to mention that the emperor had been with the snake essence day and night for so many days.

The memory disappeared after Yuanfeng's death. At that time, the emperor was already terminally ill, and the whole country was in turmoil. One can imagine the future situation.

Jiang Yan feels that it is better not to have such things happen now, after all, no one wants to be in a troubled world, and it is better to be peaceful and stable.

So he used a spell to create some dreams for the emperor, let him get the guidance of the immortal in the dreams, and practice together, and slowly clean up the snake venom on his body.

Of course, this process came slowly, and it didn't directly detoxify him. It took almost a year to finally remove all the snake venom.

During this period, news came back to the capital: Prime Minister Gao and Young Master Gao had already 'died of illness' on the way to the army, and no one doubted this result.

After all, the emperor had already been poisoned by the snake venom at that time, not to mention them who had come into contact with the snake spirit earlier, so no one doubted whether the poison in them was snake venom.

Because he was a prisoner, after his death, it was just a roll of grass swept up and thrown into the local mass grave. Jiang Yan was not surprised when he heard the news, which can be said to be expected.

But Yuanfeng said: "Brother, we must abide by what we said. Mr. Gao didn't do it, and he is dead now."

At the beginning, Young Master Gao asked Jiang Yan to go to the restaurant, saying that Prime Minister Gao had been killed by a snake spirit, and he swore a poisonous oath. Now that he is buried in a mass grave, it is no different from dying on the street.

Jiang Yan was stunned. Yuan Feng would almost forget Mr. Gao's poisonous oath if he didn't say it. It seems that people really can't swear casually, and if they don't, it will come true.

But Jiang Yan didn't expect Yuanfeng to still remember Mr. Gao's words, and his memory is much better than before. It can be seen that he is really getting better little by little, and maybe he will be back to normal in a short time.

In the past year, the emperor has also returned to his former diligence and love for the people, and stabilized the situation, but he did not dare to let the neighboring countries invade again.

Life was unhurried, because Wang Yuanzhi was promoted to three ranks in a row because of the meritorious service in reporting the snake essence, but a year later, after the emperor's snake poison was cured, he offered to resign and return to his hometown.

The emperor didn't stop him, and he gave a lot of rewards, which can be regarded as an honor to return to his hometown, which formed a clear contrast with Prime Minister Gao's family.

The Wang family's ancestral home is in the southwest area. The family walked stop and go for half a year before going back. They also deliberately admired the scenery on the road and asked people to go back to the place where they were ready to live. After all, they have not gone back for many years, and house repairs also need time. of.

After returning home and settling down, another half month passed.

Wang Yuanzhi chose an auspicious day to lead his family to worship the ancestral hall.

During this time, Jiang Yan has been following Wang Yuanzhi to get to know the relatives in the family. Mrs. Wang is busy contacting the female relatives in the family. After all, she will live here in the future, and the relationship in the family still needs to be taken care of. Nor was he idle.

On the contrary, Yuanfeng and Xiaocui became the most leisurely people. After all, Wang Yuanzhi returned to his hometown with honor, and he didn't treat his son with inferior intelligence. In addition, the two of them were always curious when they went to a new place.

Climbing the mountain and swimming in the lake is a lot of fun.

"Xiaocui, come and take a look. There is a huge bamboo forest here. There are so many bamboos. Let's dig bamboo shoots and plant them."

It was the first time for the two of them to come to the back mountain, and the goal was a large bamboo forest with no end in sight, the black bamboo forest, which was somewhat similar to the bamboo forest in front of the fox cave.

"I didn't bring any tools today, so I'd better dig it tomorrow. These bamboos are here and can't escape."

"Okay then, come over early tomorrow morning and dig some more back." Yuanfeng said with a smile, he didn't dig bamboo shoots and dragged Xiaocui into the bamboo forest. In the lush bamboo forest, two figures were laughing.

The laughter is pure and sweet, and people can't help but feel happy when they hear it.

Where they couldn't see, a red figure watched them closely.

"Well, I didn't lie to you, they really came."

Yu Ji closed her eyes, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, but are you really not going to meet Xiaocui? She will be very happy." Jiang Yan could see that Xiaocui had been very happy for more than a year, and she had a good time playing with Yuanfeng. It's not that she doesn't want to think about Yu Ji, but she's just trying to stop herself from thinking about it. The loss of her mind when she saw this black bamboo forest just now shows that she doesn't care about her mother at all.

"It's gone." I don't know when Thor will come again, escape to the lower world, steal the Ye Mingzhu, violate many heavenly rules, bring her back to the heaven, she will die, the deeper the friendship between Xiaocui and her, the more reluctant she is to leave Well, it's better not to meet now, so that she won't know the whereabouts of her mother.

Thinking about it, Yu Ji squeezed a formula in her hand, and instantly a strand of red thread flew towards Xiaocui, and fell on her head silently. This was her last blessing to her daughter.

Xiaocui and Yuanfeng were running in the bamboo forest, unaware of what happened on the other side of the bamboo forest.

The next day, the two brought tools, dug bamboo shoots back, and planted them in their own yard. They believed that bamboo would grow soon.

But after they left, Yu Ji left this place. This time, even Jiang Yan didn't know where she went. Maybe she really went to practice in a place with few people, or maybe she was brought back to heaven by Thunder God.

Everyone's life is going on as before, Yuanfeng and Xiaocui have never consummated their marriage, and naturally they have no children.

Wang Yuanzhi and Mrs. Wang no longer insisted, and adopted a child from the clan and recorded it under Jiang Yan's name. On the genealogy, he was regarded as his descendant.

Only then did Jiang Yan realize that there was another meaning behind Wang Yuanzhi's willingness to resign and return to his hometown.

After being surprised, he didn't stop him. After all, in this era, offspring are very important. Adopting one from the clan is just one more child in the family, which is no different from before.

It can be seen that after careful consideration, Wang Yuanzhi did not adopt a child close to his family, but from a family far away from his relatives. It is said that they are relatives only because they are all surnamed Wang, and in fact they are no longer related by blood.

Moreover, the adoptive family has a simple population and is already seven or eight years old. He can return to live in his own home at any time. It can be seen that he just wants to continue on the family tree and has no other ideas.

Time passed slowly, everyone was living as usual, and nothing sensational happened in the remote town, until one day the mouse spirit came over and said mysteriously:

"My lord, let me tell you that a goblin has appeared in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and this time it is a snake spirit."

"So what about the snake spirit?" Jiang Yan asked without answering.

"That snake spirit is harmful to people. It married a mortal, and it scared the mortal to death by revealing its original shape. Daxian, you have boundless magic power. Don't you want to subdue it?" the rat spirit asked puzzledly, Jiang Yan had already subdued it He also got rid of the snake spirit, but now he meets a monster and doesn't get rid of it?

"If you want to go, go by yourself, don't pull me, I don't want to meddle in so many nosy things." The town they are in is thousands of miles away from Suzhou and Hangzhou. He can get there quickly with magic, but eliminating demons is not just about getting rid of them. Monsters can be as simple as that, and there are a lot of other trivial things, and it takes a lot of time to add up the sum.

Now Wang Yuanzhi and his wife are getting worse and worse. He can't leave for a long time, and he doesn't make a living by eliminating demons. There are so many monks and priests in the world. He will get rid of them when he meets them. The distance is too far away. If you are far away, you will have no time to take care of it, and everything will follow the fate.

The mouse spirit saw that Jiang Yan refused to go, so he went by himself.

Jiang Yan was not interested in the process and results of the mouse spirit's elimination of demons. After the mouse spirit came back, he didn't ask any more questions, and only focused on his own affairs.

Wang Yuanzhi and his wife passed away one after another in their 70s. At this time, Wang Yuanfeng was no different from ordinary people, and they could leave with peace of mind.

Xiaocui and Yuanfeng have been together for more than 60 years. After Yuanfeng passed away, her life also came to an end. Because she has not practiced in these years, the lifespan of animals is not as good as that of humans. You don’t need to practice to increase your lifespan and die naturally. It is also reasonable.
