Start to live forever, live till the end of time

In the courtyard.

A trace of smoke and rain lingered, and Chen Xun's figure suddenly appeared, and a voice immediately came from the room: "Moo~"

"Brother is back!"

"Brother Xun!"

Three faces with bright smiles sat beside a special stove to welcome Chen Xun back.

With a gentle smile, Chen Xun walked slowly to the back room and said, "I went to discuss Taoism with that old gentleman. I finally realized something today and benefited a lot."

The big black cow ran up and sniffed Chen Xun, with doubts in its eyes. It didn't appreciate some of the old blind man's paintings, but it still preferred more intuitive paintings.

"Wow, it seems that eldest brother has really met the opportunity." Nangong Heling's eyebrows were crescent, holding Xiao Chi in his hand, "Master Tao is right, eldest brother is a person with long luck."

"Sister He, you are right, I agree!" Xiao Chi growled, his eyes quite sure.

Chen Xun waved his hand, found a seat at random and sat down, and said calmly: "How come there are so many opportunities? This old gentleman has been here for so long and he hasn't seen anyone get an opportunity."

"Moo!"

"But brother, no one else can understand it, even me..."

"I wouldn't have been able to understand it in the past. Lao Niu and I just walked over without looking at it. Who would care? I don't know how many fates we missed in the past."

"whee."

"Third sister, don't think about some chance to hit your head. Your brother is just a fate. It's just fate with the old man. He is just a mortal. We are connected, that's all."

Chen Xun was very calm and took out the health teacup to drink, "Old Niu, I don't care."

The big black cow nodded heavily, mooed, and its tail began to wag.

"I went to paint. Hey, I'm so inspired." Chen Xun stood up with a smile and walked swaying outside. The world in the rain had a different smell and freshness, as if it had been cleansed.

The big black cow opened its eyes slightly and hurriedly chased after it. It wanted to see what Chen Xun had drawn.

In the room, Xiao He smiled: "Fourth brother, it's great to follow my eldest brother~"

"Sister He, that's necessary!"

"The second brother said that he will take us to build the sky track in the future. He and the eldest brother have discussed it."

"Woof~~roar~!"

Xiaochi's eyes lit up, he flopped on the ground and growled, "No problem, little brother, I'm very strong."

"We won't separate anyway."

"Ho ho ho!"

Xiao Chi and Xiao He started chatting again, but Xiao Chi talked a lot and densely. In just a few years, too many things have happened in the mortal world.

Chen Xun and Da Hei Niu moved out two rocking chairs and sat in the courtyard laughing under the heavy rain. They even clinked glasses, informally, and filled with an air of freedom.

Time also gradually passed away in the sound of pattering rain.

…

The mortal years are like the bustle and noise caused by the sudden burst of fireworks. People cheer for the moment when the fireworks bloom, chasing that beautiful moment.

However, the passage of time ruthlessly takes away the fireworks, leaving only the smoke of memories. In the blink of an eye, the years have dispersed like smoke, and another ten years have passed by in a hurry.

Shuangshu Lane, Qiongyang Town.

Zhou Guanghan got married five years ago, to an ordinary family, just a few streets away and not far from the alley. Only in the past six months, she has been back less.

Her husband was very kind to her, a progressive man whom Chen Xun had once touched.

However, on the wedding day, he wanted to host the wedding, but the groom's family refused to allow him... so he had to take his family to a dinner and give him some gifts.

Zhou's father and mother are getting older, and Zhou Guangdai has married into a good family in a big city, but it seems... their lives have not changed much.

However, they don't have any extravagant expectations in return. As long as they can raise the three of them into adults and be polite, they can still live in this life running a stall.

Zhou Guangyi has not been home for two years, and no letters have been sent. It is as if he has disappeared from the world. No one knows whether he is dead or alive, or where he has gone.

Zhou's mother also had a lot more gray hair overnight. Although she had been mentally prepared, the world was not easy to get into, and she didn't know what had happened to Guang Yi in recent years.

Chen family, courtyard.

There is no pink on Nangong Heling's face. Although it has been twenty years, her face has undergone many vicissitudes, and she still looks like a young woman, which makes many people envious.

However, there are martial arts masters, martial arts saints, and immortals in this mortal world. The people here are much more receptive than the average person.

But Chen Xun is different. He has completely integrated into his own age, looking like a forty-year-old, even with a sense of majesty and vicissitudes.

From a slightly green young man who just wandered around the alley every day, he finally became a very prestigious old man in the alley when he reached the age of forty.

For example, he is already qualified to participate in any major event in the alley. If he survives one more step, he can step onto the stage of Qiongyang Town and participate in the election of the mayor.

Wherever you go, the young men in the town are respectfully addressed as "Xun Lao!"

Nangong Heling was making flower cakes today, and the sweet smell filled the entire courtyard. Da Hei Niu and Xiao Chi followed closely, watching eagerly, waiting for the first bite!

She turned around and shouted: "Brother~Brother!"

"What are you doing?!" A response came from under a crane tree. A middle-aged man in linen was painting, but his pen was no longer a paintbrush, but stones, soil, yellow leaves on the ground...

"Guang Yi hasn't been back for two years. Brother, don't you care?"

"Hey, what a big deal. A young man has gone out to explore the world. What should he worry about after only two years? Your second brother and I left the small mountain village back then, and it took a thousand years for us to return."

"Moo~~Moo!!"

The big black bull roared loudly, with some excitement flashing in his eyes.

"Oh...brother, is Guang Yi not in danger?"

"Within fifty years, he will be invincible in the world of martial arts. He can establish a sect and become a giant in the world of martial arts. His eight internal meridians have been opened, his true orifices are unobstructed, and his stick... well, I added some ingredients."

Chen Xun said indifferently, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter, "But what kind of existence he wants to be depends on himself. My spiritual thoughts sweep through this world, and I can't sweep it all in one breath. Very well, there is still sea area.”

Nangong Heling secretly exclaimed, it turned out that her eldest brother really knew martial arts. She thought that her eldest brother had learned medical skills in the mortal world.

However, the extremely powerful person in the Mahayana realm... is a powerful existence in the entire world of immortality. It is extremely simple to teach the martial arts of a mortal disciple.

Xiao Chi rolled his eyes and growled: "Brother Xun, isn't that boy Guangyi going to help the injustices in the world..."

"Moo? Moo!"

"Yes, otherwise what do you think I'm doing by teaching that kid martial arts? Besides, he has a good heart. The Zhou family's discipline since childhood has been very strict."

Chen Xun smiled faintly, still busy with his hands, "I hope he won't go the wrong way. If he gets tired of supporting him, he might as well go back to the alley to take care of himself, but don't do evil in the world."

"Hehe, brother, you are so kind."

"Hahaha..."

Chen Xun laughed loudly and continued to add embellishments on his drawing board. The big black cow leaned half out of the room and looked at the drawing board under the shade of the tree.

It has recently started to like Chen Xun's paintings. It's not the scenery painted in them, but the colorful embellishments that make them feel very strange and comfortable.

It's like the feeling of suddenly floating in a small pool of water, which is very pleasant.

Nangong Heling also likes to stay with Chen Xun and watch him paint recently. He always feels that his elder brother has a different kind of friendly atmosphere, and the paintings are also very mysterious.

Although she still can't understand it now, she no longer finds it ugly. Her eldest brother's painting skills are much better than they were then.

Just as they were busy doing their own thing, a few rapid footsteps and shouts suddenly came from outside:

"Brother Chen Xun!"

"Brother Chen Xun!"

"Uncle Chen!"

…

Several shouts came from outside the door, but they didn't come in. They just looked into the small courtyard, burning like ants on a hot pot.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Uncle Chen, Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang's old illness has relapsed and she keeps vomiting blood. Doctors in the alley say she is going to die soon, but Aunt Wang said to come to you quickly!"

"I see."

Chen Xun stood up slowly, his brows filled with indifference. He no longer felt the anxiety and powerlessness he felt a long, long time ago. He walked out of the courtyard door, looked at everyone, and said calmly:

"Let's go, everyone, even if Aunt Wang is about to die, I, Chen Xun, have to bring her back."
