"Boom!"
There were bursts of thunder on the Luoxia Mountain in autumn, and the dark clouds that covered the sky tightly covered the sky. The sky and the earth suddenly became dark again!
Deep in the mountain behind Yunqi Taoist Temple, the sound of "boom!" kept coming. I don't know how many times it was chopped, and I don't know how long it lasted.
Finally, the dark clouds dispersed, the thunder disappeared, and a golden light fell, shining on Luoxia Mountain.
Like a dream, beautiful and illusory.
"Brother, your clothes are big and ugly. I'm going to look for a beautiful dress with Xiao Long'er later!"
"Brother, where is this place? It's such a fun place. Can Xiao Long'er go catch some small animals on the mountain to play with?"
"Brother, can those beasts be eaten?"
Traveling through the black hole of time and crossing the boundary monument of space, Li Xiuyuan took Xiao Longer back to the Shura Heaven.
What he didn't expect was that they did not return to the ruins of death in the Demon Realm, nor to the Wangyue Stream in the academy, but to Luoxia Mountain where Li Xiuyuan practiced as a child.
This is where his dream began. After wandering around the outside world, Li Xiuyuan returned to the back mountain of the small Taoist temple.
The difference is that when he left, he was alone, and when he came back, he brought a dragon girl, a girl named Xiao Long'er.
The girl has lived under the Nine Abyss for many years, with no sunshine, no moon, and no sense of the power of heaven in the Divine Continent. The first thing that happened when he came to Shura Heaven was just as Li Xiuyuan expected, to overcome the tribulation.
Li Xiuyuan didn't know what level Xiao Long'er had reached after the tribulation. He just watched her grow wildly from a three-year-old girl to a six-year-old girl.
The only difference from Xiao Qing's past is that when Xiao Qing was this old, he had not yet transformed, while little Long'er had already transformed.
There was just one thing that made little Long'er very unhappy, that is, after arriving at this fun place, he found that he couldn't fly.
"This is the reason for the Heavenly Dao of Shura Heaven. Xiao Long'er will have to get used to walking on the ground like his brother in the future!"
Li Xiuyuan patiently explained to her while taking out his own clothes and putting them on. After all, there are two heavens, one underground and one in the sky, so the rules are naturally different.
The grown-up Xiao Long'er couldn't wear the skirts she wore before, and the skirts she brought from Jiucheng Abyss were too small. Li Xiuyuan had no choice but to change into the shorts and shorts he bought here.
Holding her hand and walking down the mountain, looking at the Taoist temple in the distance, Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Xiao Long'er, we are home. I will ask the old man to go down the mountain to find some dresses for you later. Brother will take you back in a few days. Go to town and buy it.”
Xiao Longer pointed at the wild beasts on the mountain and said with a smile: "Xiao Longer, can you catch them and play with them? There are no such fun things in the abyss?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at her and asked blankly: "Xiao Long'er, what realm are you in now? Can you beat them? There are monsters in the Golden Core realm on this mountain?"
Xiao Long'er looked at him and tilted his head and replied: "Xiao Long'er doesn't know either, I just know that in the abyss the little insects are afraid of Xiao Long'er!"
Li Xiuyuan's head grew bigger. He looked at her and said seriously: "We still have some things to do now. In a few days, my brother will find you a sister and let her accompany you to play in the back mountain, okay?"
Xiao Longer nodded with satisfaction, then touched his stomach and frowned: "Xiao Longer is hungry!"
"Go down, brother will cook some meat for you!" Li Xiuyuan took her little hand, and one of them quickened their pace.
At this time, he was extremely anxious. He wanted to know which autumn it was now, how long he had been away, and whether he had missed the opening of the Shura battlefield.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but quicken his pace, looked down at Xiao Long'er and said with a smile: "If so, if it's still too late, my brother will take you to the outside world to have fun."
Xiao Long'er looked up at him and laughed, giggling: "Xiao Long'er has been looking forward to this day for a long time. It's not fun at all to be in the abyss with those little bugs every day!"
While the two were talking, they had already returned to the backyard of the Taoist temple. Xiao Long'er had already let go of Li Xiuyuan's hand and ran into the Taoist temple, shouting as he ran: "Brother, hurry up, Xiao Long'er is hungry."
Old man Zhang, who was writing talismans in the main hall, was startled when he saw Xiao Long'er emerging from the backyard. He looked at her and asked, "Girl, whose child are you? Why are you wearing such clothes?"
"Grandpa, I am my brother's sister. He said this is Xiao Long'er's home!"
Xiao Longer reached for the fruit on the altar table and tried to bite it before Old Man Zhang could react.
Traveling through time and space, the little girl was very hungry.
But before she could bite her, her two little hands were grabbed by Li Xiuyuan who followed in.
"First go to the backyard to find water to wash your hands and face, and then wash the fruit before you can eat it. If you eat it without washing it, it is the monster in the back mountain. Is Xiao Long'er a monster?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled lightly and said, Xiao Long'er came from under the abyss, and he had to teach her all the rules in the world himself, which was a troublesome thing.
Old Man Zhang looked at Li Xiuyuan who came in from the back door, and couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and asked in a daze: "I heard from the girl in Taoyuan, didn't you disappear after you went to the Demon Realm?"
Li Xiuyuan led Xiao Longer to the backyard and said with a smile: "We will talk about this later. How long have I been away from here, senior? One year or ten years..."
Old Man Zhang followed him and said with a smile: "Exactly two years ago, the girl from Taoyuan came here to look for you. Now she is going to Tianfeng Kingdom..."
"It's only been two years...there's still time for everything...Senior, please go down the mountain and buy some dresses for my sister." Li Xiuyuan pointed at Xiao Longer's smile and said, "We just came back... ....I will take her to the city in a few days...I want her shoes too!"
While Xiao Longer fetched water and washed his face, he turned around and said with a smile: "Xiao Longer wants a beautiful dress, grandpa, thank you."
Seeing that Li Xiuyuan was in a good mood, Old Man Zhang smiled and said, "Wait for me, I'll go down the mountain to buy some delicious food and bring it back. That girl from Taoyuan said she would come to the mountain to look for you in a few days."
Li Xiuyuan waved and smiled: "Do you have any money? Do you want me to give it to you?"
Old Man Zhang smiled and said as he walked: "No need, I'm afraid it will take twenty years to spend what you gave me before."
Old man Zhang, who was already in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, was like a gust of wind, heading down the mountain.
While Li Xiuyuan watched Xiao Long'er wash up, he took out the space ring that was previously in the Shura Heaven Realm, took out the dried monster meat inside, washed it, and cooked the meat porridge. He also took out a few clean hand towels and handed them to Xiao Long'er.
"Xiao Long'er, do you have any space objects to store your things? Do you want my brother to give you a space ring?"
Li Xiuyuan washed the rice and walked to the kitchen with rice and meat.
After washing, Xiao Long'er bit the fruit and took in the handkerchief Li Xiuyuan gave him. He looked at Li Xiuyuan shaking the bracelet in his hand and said with a smile, "Xiao Long'er has his own treasure."
...
By the time the two of them were sitting under the eaves outside the Taoist temple, holding two bowls of meat porridge, it was already past noon.
Xiao Long'er looked at Li Xiuyuan and squinted his eyes and smiled: "Xiao Long'er has never eaten such delicious meat rice. Xiao Long'er wants to eat one more bowl. Brother, you should also eat more..."
Li Xiuyuan stretched out his hand to wipe the rice grains from the corner of her mouth, shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Long'er gave you a handkerchief. From now on, you have to wipe your mouth by yourself when eating. Do you understand?"
Xiao Long'er shook his head and said with a smile: "Xiao Long'er and brother are together, aren't these things about brother?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, his chest felt like being pricked by needles, and the memory fragments in his mind shook, as if he had returned to a certain day in a certain year and month.
He stared blankly at the little guy in front of him, speechless for a long time?
Former sister? Or is it the girl named Mu Mu who wants to wipe the oil stains from the corners of her mouth over and over again like the little Long'er in front of her, or is it the woman in Taoyuan who calls her master?
Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment. Looking at the half piece of monster meat in the bowl, he thought to himself, could he really come from the sky called the Five Realms?
However, it is already very difficult for him to return to the Shura Heaven Realm from the Nine Abyss. Is there still a way to go back to another sky?
Can a person like me, whose path in cultivation is cut off, still be able to go back to the past?
"Brother, did Xiao Long'er scare you?" Xiao Long'er handed the empty bowl in his hand to Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile, "When grandpa comes back, Xiao Long'er will have a new skirt to wear."
Li Xiuyuan gave her half a bowl of porridge, looked at the mountain road hidden at the foot of the mountain, and said calmly: "Wear it for a few days, and then you can go to the city to buy it after a while... Can my brother treat you to a drink tonight?" "
No matter what happened before he lost his memory, he was determined to take care of this little dragon girl and let her grow up happily in the Shura Heaven.
No matter what he missed in the past, he would never let Xiao Longer in front of him miss it again.
When Xiao Long'er, who was eating with a bowl in her arms, heard Li Xiuyuan's words, a look of surprise rushed onto her little cheeks, and she asked loudly: "Brother, what is wine?! Is it delicious?"
Li Xiuyuan lazily leaned on the chair, looked down the mountain and said with emotion: "That stuff tastes good, so don't drink too much. You are still a girl, so you can't turn into a little drunk cat."
After saying this, he put down the bowl in his hand and lit the small stove on the table with his hand.
A gust of wind passed by in the mountains, and a few dead leaves were blown down by the wind, passing over Xiao Longer's shoulders and falling on the table.
"I'm going to make a cup of tea now. You should watch it carefully. I will teach you how to make tea later. This is something that my brother will drink every day from now on, just like Xiao Long'er needs to drink water when he is thirsty."
"Does it taste good? Xiao Long'er will try it later."
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and said with emotion: "You are young now, and my brother will teach you to read, write, and make tea. You should study hard. After you master these, I will teach you to play the piano, okay?"
"Sounds troublesome? Xiao Long'er, can you not learn? Xiao Long'er wants to catch those little guys in the back mountains to play with."
Xiao Longer looked at him and frowned, indicating that he didn't want to learn anything except playing.
"No! If you want to stay with your brother all the time, you still have a lot to learn. From now on, you can only play for a while every day. Can Xiao Long'er do it?"
Li Xiuyuan took out the tea leaves and cups and placed them on the table. Smelling the faint fragrance, he felt as if he had returned to the bamboo house of the academy.
"My elder brother will also introduce you to my elder sister and elder brother. They have learned everything they want you to learn. Therefore, Xiao Long'er must also learn from now on and become a more powerful person than his elder brother and sister."
While Li Xiuyuan was reasoning with the little girl, he poured two cups of tea and put them on the table. He looked at her and said softly: "I just finished eating the meat porridge. Let's try it with a sip of tea."
After speaking, he picked up the tea cup and put it to his lips, blew gently twice, and continued: "Look at me like this, be careful to burn your little mouth."
Xiao Long'er followed his example and picked up the teacup, put it to his mouth and blew gently, then tried to take a sip. However, the little girl only had a sad look on her face after just a moment.
"What kind of water is this? It's so bitter!" Xiao Long'er frowned.
"Don't spit it out, swallow it, and wait for a while... Try it again, doesn't it smell good? Very sweet?"
This was the first time that Li Xiuyuan taught someone to drink tea. Even Li Ye in the Five Regions had never taught Mu Mu and Ruyu how to drink tea.
"Hmm... It seems to have a sweet taste, which is different from the sweetness of the preserved fruits that my brother gave Xiao Long'er to eat... Xiao Long'er also likes this taste."
The two of them were asking and answering questions, and it was a leisurely afternoon at Yunqi Taoist Temple.
This was Xiao Long'er's first meal and cup of tea when she came to the world, and it was also the first enlightenment lesson that Li Xiuyuan taught her.
