One night passed, and Li Xiuyuan rarely slept in. He didn't walk out of the house until three o'clock in the morning, went to fetch water to wash up, and prepared to take Yelu Mingzhu for a stroll on the street.
When he went to the living room to look for water after washing up, Hu Ge, who was making tea, was so frightened that he screamed: "Brother, have you seen a ghost?"
Even Hua Luoyu, who was sitting aside, frowned slightly.
Pulling him to sit down next to her, she stretched out her hand to squeeze Li Xiuyuan's hand and began to explore quietly.
After a long time, he sighed quietly, looked at him and asked blankly: "Where did you go last night? What terrible thing happened? How did you become like this?"
Li Xiuyuan was startled when he heard this, looked at the two of them and asked, "What happened to make you so panicked?"
Hua Luoyu was speechless and didn't speak. She just silently poured a cup of tea and gently placed it in front of him: "See for yourself."
After speaking, he sighed heavily and said, "Nothing is going to happen to you. My sister, I, and your master all rely on you to cultivate to a higher level."
Hu Ge looked at him and said blankly: "Brother, don't scare me. Mingzhu is still waiting for you to teach her the peerless swordsmanship."
When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he looked into the cup in his hand and saw that the young man who was still a jade tree in the wind yesterday was just like Ouyang Dongli at Xuantian Temple in the past night.
There was even more snow on Ouyang Dongli's head than back then.
With a smile, Li Xiuyuan thought that although the cause and effect of southern Xinjiang was related to him, it would not be like having decades of growth rings cut off overnight.
Just as he was about to speak, a message from the old Taoist priest came from the divine sea.
"This matter has nothing to do with your disciple, nor does it have anything to do with the way of heaven in the five realms. It is because you have clearly understood the soul-soothing song, and your current cultivation level is not enough to control this divine song..."
"A song that calms the world and a song that scares ghosts and gods. You are wasting your time in the five realms to understand this divine song. Is it worth it?"
"The old guy in the Tower of Reincarnation has completed his cultivation. I took him away, along with that little fish and the little black horse. Don't disturb your master's cultivation if you have nothing to do..."
This was a message from the old Taoist priest. He was not given a chance to ask questions at all. After a hurried explanation, there was no more sound in the sea of gods.
Hua Luoyu was startled when she looked at Li Xiuyuan, who was speechless. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, but there was no reaction.
Hu Ge directly pulled his sleeve and shouted: "Brother, don't scare me!"
With a long sigh, Li Xiuyuan came back to his senses from the old Taoist priest's explanation. It turned out that growing old overnight was actually him who came into contact with the true meaning of the Requiem.
It seems that the power in front of me and the laws of this world are not enough to support such a divine song.
With a faint chuckle, Li Xiuyuan looked at the two of them and said, "Why are you so anxious? I returned to the Five Realms just to transform myself into a real mortal."
When Hua Luoyu heard this, she couldn't help but frown and said, "There's nothing wrong with your body. Why did you become like this after one night?"
"With everything I have experienced and the roads I have traveled, this should have been the case a long time ago."
Li Xiuyuan drank the warm tea in the cup in one gulp, looked at Hu Ge and replied: "Don't worry, I will not leave the Five Realms until these children grow up."
Hu Ge still did not let go of his hands, but continued: "Will you scare Mingzhu, Wang Ruyi, Watson and the others if you look like this?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly, looked at Hua Luoyu and said with a smile: "Others are not afraid, but I am afraid of scaring the master. If the two of us go out from now on..."
Hua Luoyu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and said with a smile: "I see how you introduced it to others. Could it be that you are my master?"
Li Xiuyuan did not answer, but looked at Hu Ge and said, "Where did the pearl go? I'm going to go for a walk on the street. Do you want to come with me?"
Hua Luoyu sighed and said: "That guy is playing with Wang Ruyi next door. I won't go. I have to go back to the house and sleep in my cage. You scared me."
Hu Ge also shook his head and said with a smile: "I have eaten. I don't dare to go out with you when you look like this, for fear that others will laugh at me."
"What are you laughing at?"
Li Xiuyuan glared at him, got up and walked to the backyard. He wanted to ask Yelu Mingzhu to see what the little girl was doing.
Brother Hu coughed and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that others will misunderstand that you are my father."
"Uncle Hu?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and replied thoughtfully: "You will be able to see them in autumn. I guess they don't look like me, right?"
…
Just as Hua Luoyu was worried, Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she took her hand and asked her questions. Even the shopkeeper, Uncle Liu, and even Sister Hong were at a loss.
In the end, Hua Luoyu explained for a long time, saying that according to Li Xiuyuan's experience, it was normal to become like this. The group of people finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Watson is still in school and doesn't know what happened to his godfather.
In Yelu Mingzhu's eyes, his godfather is a god. No matter what he becomes, he is also his most powerful master and godfather.
Li Xiuyuan held her little hand and walked around the small street, ate a bowl of beef noodles, and went to the river to buy a few kilograms of saury as usual.
He looked at her and smiled and said: "Mingzhu has never eaten this kind of fish on the grassland. Let Aunt Hong cook it for you at noon, and your godfather will bake it for you in the evening, okay?"
Yelu Mingzhu squinted her eyes and nodded, stretched out her hand and gently pinched the tail of the swordfish, then put it under her nose and sniffed it gently.
He immediately showed a look of disgust: "Master, this fish stinks."
Just as he calls the old Taoist priest master, a teacher is like a father. Li Xiuyuan taught Yelu Mingzhu several times along the way and asked her to call him master from now on.
And patiently explained to her what a master is.
Yelu Mingzhu thought about her father's words and knew that this was her biggest support in the future. She nodded to show that she seemed to understand.
In fact, she doesn't know at all right now.
Li Xiuyuan didn't bother to explain too much to her. He thought that time was like lightning. In a few years, this guy would grow up to be like Nangong Ruyu, so he would naturally understand these truths.
Carrying several kilograms of saury, Li Xiuyuan bought another basket of peaches. He looked at her and smiled and said, "This fish will be delicious after it is cooked. I will ask your Aunt Hua to wash the peaches for you when I go back later."
Yelu Mingzhu suddenly said: "Mingzhu seemed to have heard Master playing the piano last night. Master, when will you teach me?"
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at her and asked, "Do you want to learn to play the piano?"
Yelu Mingzhu nodded gently and replied: "Aunt Hua said that the master plays the most beautiful music, even she can't."
"As long as you are not afraid of hardship, I will teach you."
Li Xiuyuan was in a good mood, holding her little hand and walking all the way to the end of the street. From a distance, he saw Wang Ruyi standing by and waving to them.
Yelu Mingzhu let go of Li Xiuyuan's hand and ran forward.
"Sister Ruyi, I'm here."
Compared with Wang Ruyi, Yelu Mingzhu is two months younger than her, making her the youngest sister among a group of children.
…
Yelu Mingzhu, who lost her father, gained a new friend named Wang Ruyi and a magical uncle named Xiao Hei.
What makes her feel incredible is that she is obviously a human, and Xiao Hei is just a talking crow.
However, her godfather asked her to call Xiao Hei uncle, and said that this was a family rule and she couldn't mess around.
Just when she still couldn't figure it out, Wang Ruyi ran over, reached out and touched Xiao Hei's feathers and called uncle.
Seeing that Wang Ruyi called Xiao Hei uncle, Yelu Mingzhu was no longer afraid. He stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Hei and said, "Uncle Xiao Hei, are you very powerful? Can you teach Mingzhu swordsmanship?"
The little girl now only remembers Yeluqi's last words to her, that she would learn the most powerful swordsmanship in the world with her godfather.
Xiao Hei looked at her and shook his head: "Xiao Hei can take you to play in the back mountains, take you to find delicious food, and protect you. If you want to learn swordsmanship, go to your brother."
"Is Uncle Xiaohei's brother the godfather? Mingzhu remembers it."
Yelu Mingzhu sighed, turned around and looked at Li Xiuyuan who was lying under the eaves holding a scripture and shouted.
"Daddy, when are you going to teach Mingzhu how to practice swordsmanship?"
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said quietly: "Don't worry, you can play with Ruyi first, and when it snows, my godfather will cut a bamboo sword for you."
In his opinion, if Yelu Mingzhu wanted to learn to practice swordsmanship, she would naturally start practicing with Zhanxue just like Mu Mu did back then.
Even Nangong Ruyu started practicing with Zhan Xue back then.
Unknowingly, the snow-cutting sword technique he had learned on his own had become a technique he taught his disciples.
There is no way, she doesn't know many swordsmanship to begin with. If she doesn't master the most basic swordsmanship of Zhanxue, Yelu Mingzhu may not be able to practice other swordsmanship, even Hu Ge's Qingcheng swordsmanship.
Looking at Li Xiuyuan's appearance, Hua Luoyu couldn't help but say: "I don't know if your master will come over today. Did you know? Mingzhu's aunt is already pregnant with Liujia..."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said, "How about Master Madam go to the Imperial City?"
"Well, let's see. If your master doesn't come here tomorrow, I will go back to Huamanlou. I don't know if the queen will take Yuezhi back to the palace or stay with her sister in Huamanlou."
Hua Luoyu looked at him and said helplessly: "Do you want to give him an innate body before he is born?"
Li Xiuyuan glanced at her, shook his head and said, "I'm not a god. I just want to give her and the child some help. Master, you are overthinking."
"Actually, it's not bad to think about it." Hua Luoyu said quietly: "Before the child was born, you, as his godfather, helped me. This is an opportunity that no child in the five realms can ask for."
Li Xiuyuan lowered his head and said calmly: "So what? If my brother is still alive, their mother and son should be more proud."
Hua Luoyu thought for a while, looked at him and frowned and asked: "Today Mingzhu asked me, she wants to learn to play the piano from you. With her physique, can she enter Taoism with the piano?"
After all, in her opinion, Yelu Mingzhu is more suitable to learn Li Xiuyuan's swordsmanship, because she will one day face off against those in Nanhai.
As for using the harp to enter the Tao, she had only heard of it, and had only seen her husband and the guy in front of her. The master and the apprentice's harp skills were incredible.
Among the five realms, she has not seen a more powerful monk who can use the harp to enter the Tao.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiuyuan replied nonchalantly: "I didn't think she could become a Taoist with the piano. I just wanted her to have a happy childhood."
I spent too much time on cultivation and lost a lot of joy.
He didn't want Yelu Mingzhu to become like him, he wanted to give her a different childhood and youth.
Hua Luoyu glanced at him and said with emotion: "So, you want to train her as a princess."
Li Xiuyuan smiled when he heard this and said quietly: "She is originally a princess on the grassland. She should have her own pride, just like the master's wife. She was and is the pride of the Five Regions Imperial City."
Hua Luoyu was stunned and looked at him a little angry: "I am her Aunt Hua, what does it have to do with our cultivation? I can only take her to eat well and sleep well. The important matters of cultivation depend on you!"
"I didn't force you." Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "As you said, teach her to play the piano first."
