Of course, Li Xiuping didn't know that his small act of kindness would completely change the fate of several generations of a family, let alone that the family would be grateful to him for generations to come.
The only thing that Li Xiuping cared about at this moment was the previous cooperation between the two women and their handling of the water monster.
Then Li Xiuping came to the conclusion that besides fighting, a strong person can do other things with ease and ease.
For such a huge monster, even if hundreds of people work together, it will take at least a day to make it to the extent it is now. But these two women just moved their hands and turned the huge water monster into something edible in the blink of an eye. Food, anyone who sees it would be stunned.
The old man driving the boat seemed to think it was normal, because in his eyes, these people were real immortals. Is there anything that immortals can't do?
After Miss Xiaohong had almost finished eating, she returned the copper bowl to Li Xiuping and burped, so she looked a little embarrassed.
They had eaten so much, but the copper bowl was still full, as if no matter how they ate, they could not finish the meat in the bowl.
Li Xiuping took out a piece and gave it to the jet black dragon, then put the copper bowl away.
Because it was getting late, the old man driving the boat must have eaten a piece of Li Xiuping's meat. At this moment, he invited the three of them to stay at his house for one night and set off again early tomorrow morning.
This time the woman in Tsing Yi handed over the decision-making power to Li Xiuping.
It was hard to refuse such kindness, so Li Xiuping finally had no choice but to agree.
The old man's home is not far from the river bank. It is a pretty small courtyard. There is a large persimmon tree planted in the courtyard. Countless logs stand on the ground, and then beams are made on it. The beams are covered with wooden boards, and the house is built. On top of the wooden planks, it is very suitable for living.
The old man's family has a daughter and a son-in-law dressed as a scholar. The couple has a pair of children, a sister and a brother.
At this moment, two children were sitting on the wooden board playing. When they saw someone entering the yard, the little girl frowned slightly, but the little boy smiled and shouted loudly: "Grandpa, you are back, have you brought me something delicious?" Yes?"
The old man put down the things in his hands, his face wrinkled because of his smile, walked up quickly, and picked up the little boy.
The little boy shouted loudly into the room: "Dad, mother, grandpa has brought guests."
Li Xiuping looked at the little boy being held by the old man and felt very fond of it, but when he looked at the little girl, he didn't have any unnecessary emotions.
After a while, the couple walked out of the house. The woman had a smile on her face and looked a little reserved. The man clasped his fists and saluted everyone, invited them into the house, and ordered the woman to cook.
At this time, the old man put the little boy down and said with a smile: "The house is humble and simple, but I hope you will... don't dislike it."
After all, the word "immortal" was not spoken, obviously because he was worried that the immortals would mind.
Li Xiuping stood on the wooden board and looked forward, just in time to see the river.
The river was rolling and the setting sun was shining warmly. It was very pleasant and I couldn't help but feel much better.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "That's good. If I have time in the future, I will also find a place like this, build a house like this, and then..."
He didn't say anything further because he didn't know what to do next. This idea just came to him suddenly at this moment, and he had never had any imagination about his future. Along the way, he was thinking about cultivation. Either it's about forging swords, or more often, it's about thinking about how to survive and live longer.
At this time, the little boy ran over and asked his grandfather for a gift. Then the old man carefully took out two things from his arms. Li Xiuping didn't know what they were and what they did, because he had never had anything in his childhood. He had never seen such things before. In his memory, there were only swords and all kinds of swords. At most, when he entered the city, he could see children who were similar to him holding a rattle in their hands, shaking it from side to side. A small drumstick will hit the drum head and make a "dong dong dong" sound.
Li Xiuping found it amusing, but not envious, because he felt that if he could hold a sword, he would definitely be more powerful than them.
From that time on, he felt that his master was the most powerful, and what his master gave him was also the best.
"This is yours, and this is for sister." The old man ordered with a smile on his face.
The little boy took the things and ran to find his sister.
Li Xiuping still looked into the distance, feeling a little dazed.
The woman in green said at this time: "The past is over, and thinking too much about it is not good for practice."
Li Xiuping came to his senses and nodded slightly.
The woman in green looked at the two children in the distance. You can also give them some of the meat. One piece of meat is divided into two portions, which is almost enough. As for the other two, one piece is given to each of them, which is just right.
Li Xiuping was a little strange and didn't understand why this woman would mention such a trivial matter.
Of course Li Xiuping didn't know. He missed his master, and the woman in green also missed her master. When he saw the man dressed as a scholar, he thought of his own gentleman, the scholar who risked his life to save a demon clan. .
Li Xiuping didn't ask any more questions. He took out a piece of meat from the copper bowl, broke it in half, and walked towards the two children.
Looking at the two pieces of meat handed over by Li Xiuping, the two children's eyes widened. Although they wanted to eat it, and the little boy even drooled, neither child reached out to take it. Instead, they looked at their grandfather.
After the old man smiled and nodded, the two children took the meat and ate it.
After eating, the little boy was obviously a little unsatisfied. He stared at Li Xiuping with his big eyes and said, "Brother, are there any more?"
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "You are still too young. It is enough to eat this much. If you eat too much, it will be bad."
The little boy said: "My father said that I need to eat more now so that I can grow up quickly."
Li Xiuping was stunned. This is almost every child's dream, because just a few years ago, he was still a child and wanted to grow up quickly. At that time, his master was still there and still asked him to recite those unfamiliar and difficult words. Understanding books.
At that time, he felt that when he grew up, he would no longer need to carry it on his back. When he grew up, he could forge swords like his master. Then he could forge a sword of his own choice and carry it to the city on his back, which would be so majestic.
Later, the master left. At that time, he felt that he had grown up. At that time, for the first time, he didn't like the feeling of growing up.
Li Xiuping asked: "Why do you want to grow up?"
The little boy said without hesitation: "When I grow up, I can make money with my grandfather, and I can protect my sister from those bad guys bullying her."
The little girl curled her lips at this time and said: "Who wants you to protect me? I can protect myself and you."
The little boy chuckled and said, "My sister is like that, she is so stubborn. A few days ago, she was chased by a big yellow dog for two streets. Not to mention how sad she cried."
The little girl suddenly blushed and said in a cold voice: "Who is crying? You are the one crying."
As she spoke, she glanced at Li Xiuping, and after realizing that Li Xiuping was also looking at her, she snorted coldly, pulled the little boy over, and then prepared to hit him.
The little boy had obviously been beaten a lot before. At this moment, he was like a loach. He broke free from the little girl's control and jumped down the steps. After running two steps, his body suddenly stopped, and then his whole body was covered with a layer of blood. Brilliant.
A similar situation occurred to the little girl who was about to give chase.
Noticing the changes in the two children, Li Xiuping couldn't help but frown, feeling a little worried.
He knew that this was the consequence of that piece of meat, but he didn't know whether the result was good or bad.
He didn't want anything to happen to these two children because of him. That would be a big sin.
Miss Xiaohong smiled and said, "Don't worry, this just stimulates their spiritual roots."
Li Xiuping was stunned, couldn't help but look at the two children, and muttered: "Is this the spiritual root?"
He has no spiritual roots, so the words "spiritual roots" are quite irritating to him.
Because he has no spiritual roots, he can be picked up by his master. Because he has no spiritual roots, he can practice the cultivation methods left by his master and embark on the path he is now on.
Before that, he was extremely eager for spiritual roots, because at that time, he felt that as long as he had spiritual roots, he could completely change his life, so even if he successfully embarked on the path of spiritual practice later, the so-called spiritual roots , can still touch the depths of his heart.
The old man driving the boat knelt directly in front of Li Xiuping, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, expressing gratitude.
Although he is just an ordinary person who drives a boat and sends people around for a lifetime, he also knows what it means for a person to have spiritual roots.
With spiritual roots, you have the qualifications to practice. Being able to practice means being able to embark on a completely different path.
Everyone in the world wants to become an immortal, and they all want to live forever, but the conditions for becoming an immortal are too harsh. The condition of spiritual root alone is enough to shut out countless people.
Now that his granddaughters and grandsons all have spiritual roots, it means that they can embark on the path of cultivating immortals, which is enough to change their lives.
How could he not burst into tears of gratitude for such a great favor and rebirth?
Li Xiuping also didn't expect that a small piece of meat would have such a big impact on an ordinary person. He thought to himself, if he could eat such meat, would he also have spiritual roots?
He quickly felt that it was impossible. If there was such a magical thing, his master would definitely give it to him, and his master had such ability.
And Little Red Girl also said that this only stimulates their spiritual roots, rather than giving them spiritual roots. Inspiring and giving are completely different.
Endowment means that it didn't exist before, but now it exists; and stimulation means that it existed in the past, but it didn't appear, but it appears now.
The man dressed as a scholar had a confused look on his face at the moment. He had no idea what was going on and why his father would kneel in front of the young man and act so rudely.
