"That is to say..."
Po Meng looked at the young couple beside her in a funny way, and said cheerfully: "Because your parents think you have reached the age of independence, so they kicked you out of the house and found a place to live by yourself?
And because the new house hasn't been built yet, you can only come and live with me for a week or two? "
"ah……"
"right……"
Hongli held the spoon in her hand and poured Po Meng's soup into a bowl, and then Hei Yang took it and handed it out.
Their expressions were dull, their eyes were dull, and their bodies were stiff, like two defective robots that were about to be scrapped.
"Tsk, tsk."
Po Meng looked at the appearance of the two of them and couldn't help but smile helplessly: "No, what about you? It's only been less than forty minutes, and you already look like it was damaged...
After all, you are already in the golden elixir stage, and you can be considered a mainstay in many cultivation worlds. Cheer up! "
"oh……"
"Um……"
"Tsk tsk, I really belong to you."
Po Meng waved her hands speechlessly: "Okay, okay, let's take a rest."
"Yeah! Long live!"*2
"Hey, don't spill the soup, there's still a bowl..."
"..."
Po Meng continued to pass the soup and turned to Hei Yang and Hong Li who were sitting beside them.
I saw the two of them with their legs together, their hands on their legs, their expressions innocent and well-behaved.
Another three hours have passed...
It's a shame that these two people can sit still, so as long as they don't work, they can do anything boring...
As Po Meng thought about it, several black lines crossed her head.
Are these two people just an exception, or are young people today so lazy?
For a time, Po Meng fell into thinking and worrying about the future of the world. Where should they go...
But where Po Meng couldn't see, there was still an undercurrent of joy surging.
[Hongli: Yes, that’s what you said before. Then I took a look and I was really fooled by you. I laughed to death...]
[Hei Yang: Right, right? I told you, that kind of thing is very common, it’s not that new...]
[Heiyang: Chirping…]
[Hongli: Hehehehaha...]
In this atmosphere where the three of them were living together, it was Po Meng who, as the elder, was the first to lose her temper. This was partly due to the fact that few people spoke to her.
On the other hand, just sitting there, these two people made her feel as if she was redundant, like the light bulb...
"Ahem."
Po Meng coughed twice as if unintentionally, pretending to be casually looking for a topic.
"But then again, the cultivation gap between you and your parents is so big, can't you just deal with it casually?"
Po Meng was a little curious and asked: "How come you, who are golden elixirs, are frightened into being like this by your mortal parents?"
"ah?"
Hei Yang was equally puzzled: "What's the problem? Parents are parents!"
"uh-huh?"
Hong Li also looked puzzled: "No matter how powerful a person is, he will become a coward when facing his parents, right?"
"Indeed, it's not a shame to be scolded by your parents."
"Without them, I wouldn't have grown so big!"
Hei Yang nodded: "They are close relatives!"
Hongli added: "It's family!"
"It's like there is no reason for their care and concern..."
"There is no reason to respect or love them!"
"Even if there is some powerful figure outside..."
"A child who still subconsciously relies on his parents after arriving home!"
Hongli Heiyang nodded together and concluded: "That's why we were kicked out!"
"Is there any direct causal relationship between the two..."
Po Meng couldn't help complaining, and fell into thinking: "Well, is this the way people who travel around the world without reincarnation originally think? It does give me some insight..."
Hei Yang: "Huh?"
Hongli: "Elaborate?"
"Well..."
Po Meng thought for a while, and then explained: "Just like in some worlds, there is often a certain great master who occasionally reincarnates and rebuilds, or a certain immortal god often descends to earth to experience calamities.
For them, in their long life, they have had countless parents.
Even if their spiritual consciousness may be blinded after reincarnation, they will be able to see through the mystery of the womb very quickly because the soles of their feet are there.
In this way, even if they maintain due respect for their parents in that life, they can rely on emotions such as kindness...well, it's hard to say.
Although they are sons or daughters, their real age is that they can be the ancestors of their parents.
Their parents' so-called life experiences and experience seem to them to be childish and ridiculous, and their ideas will not be shaken by the slightest change in their parents' suggestions.
Parents want their children to grow up healthily and safely, but their mission in this life is to die early and return early.
Or maybe their parents want them to start a family, but they already have their own partners or offspring - it's even possible that their parents are their original offspring.
What's more, in this life, the child is the child of the parents, but in the previous life, the relationship with the parents was a partner, or the parents were reincarnated to the human world to experience life, and various situations are complicated.
So in most cases, reincarnated people will automatically ignore this kind of thing and go their own way without listening to advice.
Or, the personality in this life may just be born accidentally, and when it returns, it will disappear and become another person. A is B, but B is not A..."
After a pause, Po Meng said to the two people who said, "I understand, and I'm still shocked." "So, those powerful monks rarely have the same attitude towards their parents as you do in the travel world.
On the contrary, they will also find ways to cover up or even cut off their origins and their relationship to prevent enemies who have the ability to control time..."
"Well, this is too pitiful..."
Hei Yang couldn't help but think of his parents in his previous life: "Children who put so much effort and love into raising them originally dreamed of having a happy family and enjoying family happiness for the rest of their lives.
As a result, he was suddenly told that his child was the clone of a certain powerful person and was now being taken back.
Even if those powerful people take care of their loved ones and will ensure that they are free from illness and disaster and die peacefully, they will probably still be sad, right? "
No, not only sad, but also forced to smile - who is sad? Who dares to be sad!
That kind of alienated relationship made Hei Yang feel suffocated, just like Runtu: "Xun...brother...master!"
The parents looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar person in front of them and trembled at the corners of their mouths: "My son...has seen an immortal!"
"Hey! What are you thinking about!"
Hongli slapped Hei Yang on the head and brought him back to reality: "Have you started thinking about the things that you have and don't have again, and turned into a pessimistic and depressed boy?"
"Ah this..."
Facing Hong Li's questioning gaze, Hei Yang thought that he had promised her not to think about those messy and meaningless things, and he suddenly laughed guiltily and said: "Hahaha, how is that possible? I just think more. Seriously, why are you distracted?"
"Thinking about what?"
"How to properly deal with this kind of problem!"
Hei Yang stretched out a finger and expressed his thoughts to his girlfriend.
"Do you think this can be done? Since I have become their child, I should just be responsible to the end, take all the parents away, and be filial to them together..."
"Oh, and then form the [My Parents Alliance], right?"
Hongli couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "Are you leaving it here to collect it?
Putting aside the cost of supporting parents, what if one of the parents had more than one powerful son in their reincarnation?
What should be done if there are two or more?
Or what should you do if you find that you and your enemy are brothers in a sense, related by blood? "
"Ah this..."
Hei Yang's expression froze and he coughed twice: "Ahem, it's better for us to travel around the world!"
"One thing to say, it's true!"
"Now you know how important grandma's bowl of soup plays, right?
After one bowl, all the troubles are gone, and interpersonal relationships can be cleared with one click! "
Po Meng said faintly: "If you can sort out reincarnation, you will have no problem directly succeeding as the top leader of the underworld. Just eat carrots and worry less!"
The so-called cutting off the secular world and abandoning the previous relationship, etc., the immortals and gods will not be restricted by the moral constraints of the secular world, it is just a reason, the Yue Lao's strings are not tied randomly, right?
After all, it is actually difficult for them to figure it out, so they simply give up thinking...
Of course, there are also gods that are truly “not bound by secular morality”, such as the ancient Greek pantheon?
"Why do we just eat carrots and worry about it?"
Hei Yang said angrily: "You didn't ask this first, so let's answer the discussion seriously!"
"That's right, it was obviously you, Grandma Meng, who started the topic first!"
Hongli nodded in affirmation: "You also told us about the messy relationships in other worlds!"
"Ah this..."
Mrs. Meng was stunned, coughed twice, and changed the subject with a smile: "That's not important, it's not important. Let's take a look at the dead souls in the distance, children!"
Hei Yang: "..."
Hongli: "..."
"Harmful."
Sighing, Heiyang Hongli turned to look at Naihe Bridge. One after another, the souls of the dead were lining up to draw numbers and have the experience of restarting their lives.
However, the appearance, clothing and temperament of these dead souls are extremely consistent.
Wearing standard armor, followed by war horses, the atmosphere of solemnity and desolation are intertwined, as if you can hear the beating of war drums and cries of death in your ears.
A cloud of blood shrouded the heads of these dead souls, looking quite ominous.
"Well……"
Hei Yang frowned and looked at the large group of troops that had just arrived. There was almost no need to think about the identity of the other party: "Soldiers?"
"Soldiers, soldiers..."
Hong Li stuck out her head with the same curiosity and looked at this group of dead souls who seemed to come from the same place. Their souls were much more incomplete than most of the previous souls.
Some were missing arms and legs, and they were walking slowly, supporting each other.
Some were cut in half, leaving only the upper half of their bodies, waving their arms as if crawling, but if you look closely, you will find that the other person is floating in the air, rather than crawling, it is better to say that he is swimming in the air.
Of course, there are many headless horsemen. Although they have no head, they seem to be able to walk towards Naihe Bridge with vague pulling force.
Although in the state of their soul bodies, they all seemed as hazy as gas, and although their death scenes were miserable, there was no horrific scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere.
"Is there a war happening somewhere? It's so tragic!"
Hongli couldn't help but sigh, and subconsciously thought of the scene of the sea monster clan and the disciples of the Five Elements Sect fighting. Is that considered a war?
However, one is between different races, and the other... is most likely an internal fight between humans.
"It's a war, well, come and help me."
Under Hei Yang Hongli's reluctant expression, Po Meng waved and asked them to return to work again.
"Grandma, I love and hate these military spirits."
Po Meng kept moving her hands and said leisurely: "The good thing is that most of these people have already considered death and are more honest when crossing the bridge, obeying the orders and prohibitions, and the merits obtained by extraditing them are also more.
To be honest, it’s because whether they are resisting foreign enemies or actively invading, these people have had murderous karma on their hands, and the soup they drink needs to be added..."
Speaking of which, Po Meng took out a small jar from somewhere, similar to the pepper and chili powder jars sold at roadside stalls, and sprinkled it into the soup.
"Only in this way can we restore them to the factory facilities completely. Really, they are reincarnated and still wearing armor, what do you think!"
"Ah this..."
Hongli was stunned for a moment, moved a few times, and came close to Heiyang, and whispered: "Do we also have some killing karma? Do we need to add ingredients when drinking soup?"
"What are you thinking about? We are outlaws and don't need to drink soup."
"That's right, hey hey hey..."
"Hey, hey, you two, be serious and stop mumbling there!"
Po Meng couldn't help but said: "And their horses also need soup, don't forget them!"
"Ouch..."
"good……"
"etc……"
Hei Yang frowned and suddenly stretched out a hand: "Well, Grandma Meng, look over there. Is that a normal phenomenon in the underworld?"
"ah?"
Mrs. Meng’s voice increased: “What’s normal?”
"There's a guy over there..."
Hongli said expressionlessly: "He is aiming at us with a bow and arrow..."
Po Meng: "..."
On the Naihe Bridge not far away, a dead man who seemed to be a general in front of him was holding a long bow made of ghost energy. He placed the bow and arrows, pulled the bow string, and looked at them with a murderous look on his face.
"Wolf Army! Everyone obeys the order!"
The general roared angrily: "You will be a hero in life, but you will be a hero in death!
The king of hell takes turns, come to my house today!
Follow me, rush into Senluo Palace, and seize his bird position! "
"Kill!!!"*n
When the order was given, the soldiers immediately took out their weapons and rushed towards Meng Poting: "Take away his bird position!"
"Very good, this is the momentum!"
After receiving the response from his subordinates, the general laughed loudly: "Let's operate on this old woman first and kill her to sacrifice the flag!"
"Old woman! Old woman!"*n
"Operation! Operation!"*n
"..."
Meng Poting fell into an awkward silence as the armless, short-legged, headless and half-body soldiers roared towards him.
"..."
Hong Li and Hei Yang looked at each other, and then both showed funny smiles.
"Ahem, that..."
Hei Yang said hey: "Old lady...ahem, Grandma Meng, they are provoking you!"
"It's more than just a provocation! It's just a slap in your face!"
Hong Li was filled with indignation: "You just said that they should abide by the rules. If you turn around, they will rebel and use your flag as a sacrifice. This shows that they don't treat you as a human being at all!"
"That's right!"
"Yes, yes!"
"..."
Tic-tac-toes popped up on Mrs. Meng's head. Compared with those rebellious guys, why did she feel that these two quarrelsome people deserved a beating more?
Hei Yang: "So..."
Hongli: "I just want to..."
"Besides, I'll put you two in the pot!"
"!!!"
Heiyang Hongli was shocked, took a few steps back, and squatted in the corner of the pavilion, shivering.
Po Meng: "..."
"well……"
Sighing helplessly, Po Meng tapped the edge of the pot with a spoon: "Da da da."
As the knocking sound fell, there were sounds of falling water and wailing sounds.
I saw that the Naihe Bridge that was originally able to support these dead souls suddenly disappeared, making the dead souls suddenly feel that their souls were pressed by a huge force of gravity, and they fell off the Naihe Bridge one by one like dumplings without any resistance, and fell into the River of Forgetfulness. river.
And those dead souls who stayed where they were were still floating on the bridge, and some who were watching also put away their inappropriate thoughts and remained silent one by one.
There was no need for Mrs. Meng to urge her. In an instant, the group of dead souls lined up in an orderly and quiet manner. They were eager to drink the soup quickly, as if they were anxious to be reincarnated.
"Pfft, ah!"
In the Forgotten River, the general roared and struggled unwillingly: "How could I, the great general of the imperial court, fall here? Wait for me to come back..."
"Ouch!"
A copper dog jumped out of the river and swallowed the general in one gulp, making a "squeaking" chewing sound from its mouth.
"Phew, done."
Po Meng wiped the non-existent sweat on her head and turned to look at the red glass and black sun with a smile.
"Why are the two children suddenly so far away from grandma? Come here quickly, grandma won't hurt you!"
Hei Yang: "..."
Hongli: "..."
"Ahem, um, I'll give grandma a squeeze on your shoulders!"
"Grandma, Hei Yang just squeezes your shoulders for fun. If you really want to have fun, I have to give you a slap on your back, grandma!"
…………
At night, it's slightly cool.
In the spacious courtyard, two couples lay on mats with a small fire and looked at the starry sky.
It was the end of the month when Heiyang Hongli came back, and the waning moon hung in the sky.
But now it is mid-December, and the twists and turns of the water calendar year 577 are about to pass. Seeing the full moon this time, Qing Yiyi and the others finally lost the sadness of missing their families.
Although in a sense, Heiyang Hongli is now separated from them... ahem, but the children have indeed returned home and no longer need to worry about them.
"No, I still can't help but miss them..."
Lan Yuying couldn't help but speak, with worry on her face.
"They won't really be lying cold and hungry in a damp box right now. Do you think we should give them some worn-out cotton-padded jackets or something to stuff under their bodies for cushioning?"
"Should, no need?"
Qing Yiyi showed a thoughtful expression: "It's not yet cold yet, and young people are also very energetic..."
After a pause, Qing Yiyi suddenly thought of something: "Oh, by the way, Xiaoyang said that they went to work for others to pay for their accommodation. I don't know where they went to work..."
"It's fine to go anywhere, as long as it's not some irregular job that violates laws and disciplines."
Hei Muguang suddenly said: "I'm just afraid that they are too lazy and will be kicked back when the time comes."
"Well, I suddenly don't know if it's really appropriate for us to embarrass them like this..."
After all, Lan Yuying couldn't harden her heart. During the day, when the two children acted miserable, she almost surrendered.
"Xiaochen, what do you think?"
Hong Xiaochen: "Hushu... Hushu..."
Lan Yuying: "..."
Xiao Huo: "Chirp zzzzzz...happiness..."
………
Infinite Sword Gate.
"I'm ready!"
In a pure white space, Hong Butian suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly: "The test can begin!"
"good!"
An ethereal voice that did not sound like a human voice came: "Tested person, Hong Butian, the first test is to identify weapons, please listen to the question!"
After the words fell, a long bow phantom appeared in front of Hong Buyian: "Please answer, what kind of weapon is this!"
"Um……"
Hong Butian, who had previewed his homework in advance, looked solemn as if facing a powerful enemy.
"Yes, it's a bow?..."
"Um?"
"It's a bow and sword!"
Hong Butian quickly reined in his horse: "Yes! It's a bow and sword!"
"Very good, the answer is correct! Please listen to the next question!"
A ghost shadow of a spear replaced the long bow and appeared in front of Hong Buyian: "Please answer!"
"..."
Hong Butian gritted his teeth, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, and a fierce struggle was going on in his heart.
I'm sorry, parents, I'm sorry, the Hong family, I'm sorry, my ancestors!
This is just a temporary humiliation. Bear with it for the time being. Sooner or later, I will rectify its name again!
Taking a deep breath, Hong Butian showed a tragic and decisive expression: "This is Changmu..."
"Huh? What is it?"
The ethereal voice said leisurely: "What does it look like? Did the respondent want to say a spear? Is it a spear? Are you sure?"
"Long sword! It's a long sword!!!"
Hong Butian's brain roared and he roared: "Yes, it's a long sword!"
"Very good, the answer is correct! Please listen...to the next question!"
