After some discussion, the three of them finally did not tell Gao Yue'er the news.
The old Taoist priest meant not to torture his precious disciple until Xiao Hei came back, otherwise she might not be able to sleep all night.
Qingyu drank two cups of spiritual tea and went back to her room to rest. She was currently low on energy and blood and needed to rest.
It wasn't until Qingyu entered No. 46 that Li Xiuyuan looked at the old Taoist priest and said, "There are only two elixirs. Xiao Hei originally asked for them to be transformed on behalf of Yan'er. You should know the reason for this better than me."
"Qingyu took one pill, Xiao Hei's two sisters each took one pill, and the remaining two pills are for you, master and disciple."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said seriously: "You have to think about it carefully. If you take that elixir, you will break through the void and ascend immediately..."
Li Xiuyuan believed that Xiao Hei also wanted the old Taoist priest to stay in this world for another ten or eight years, otherwise the master would just slap his butt and leave, leaving behind a few disciples who had not yet grown up.
It would be better not to be a disciple in the first place.
The old Taoist priest naturally understood this truth. He just thought of his own cultivation and found himself in trouble again.
Li Xiuyuan smiled: "With your cultivation and my help, you will definitely realize the opportunity to ascend in another ten years..."
He didn't want to say too much and wanted to make up his own mind on where to go.
The old Taoist priest also knew that a pill of elixir could help him ascend ten years earlier at most, but in this way, no one took over the practice of the three disciples.
Not to mention there is a precious disciple in Qingniu Mountain.
According to his idea, before leaving, he would naturally go back to Qingniu Mountain first, and then leave with his eldest disciple.
Thinking that Xiaohei gave the elixir to Qingyu without even looking at it, and even Shuzi and Xiaohu didn't use it. He knew the mystery behind it even if he didn't tell her.
Thinking of what Li Xiuyuan said, the old Taoist priest immediately made up his mind.
He sighed and said: "It's rare for me to find a good disciple like Qingyu, so I will accompany them to the fairy island in the East China Sea to practice for another ten or eight years. There is no rush."
Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and poured some spiritual tea for the two of them.
He said quietly: "There is a saying in Buddhism: Only by letting go can you gain enlightenment. It's rare that you can understand this truth."
The old Taoist priest looked at him and smiled bitterly: "Even if I don't need this elixir, I still have three disciples, one of whom is guarding the Taoist temple on Qingniu Mountain."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said: "Since I have become a good person, I have no choice but to do it to the end. Your disciple of Qingniu Mountain, I will make the decision for you..."
It wasn't until Li Xiuyuan said these words that the old Taoist priest took a deep breath.
He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Thank you sir for fulfilling our relationship as master and disciple."
Li Xiuyuan chuckled: "Fortunately you only have a few disciples, otherwise you wouldn't be able to handle this bowl of water!"
…
"Brother, why don't you play in the palace for a few more days? Yan'er hasn't had enough yet."
"I'm tired."
"Brother, do you like our kennel?" Qingqing said this.
Xiao Hei was stunned, touched her head and asked, "Who taught you this?"
Qingqing chuckled: "The Queen, she said that a golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as her own doghouse. Are you scolding my brother?"
Xiao Hei couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "This means that my brother is not comfortable staying in the palace. From now on, you should go to school and ask your husband for advice on this sentence."
Xiao Hei didn't expect the Queen to say this. It seemed that the Queen was a little homesick.
Fortunately, everyone was happy when he entered the palace this time.
Let the two lonely women get what they want. Compared with the glory and wealth in the palace, perhaps only they themselves, this way of immortality is more important than anything else.
Fortunately, the Queen is Qingyu's junior sister, so future troubles will not be her fault.
Thinking about it, it was really a wise decision for Qingyu to become a disciple of the old Taoist priest at the foot of Qingniu Mountain.
The carriage passed by the market, and Xiao Hei jumped out and bought ten kilograms of soy sauce beef.
Yanzhu gave up after smelling the fragrance, so Xiaohei had to feed her two slices.
Then he shook his head and said, "Sister, why are you such a snack foodie that you can't get enough to eat?"
Yan'er shook her head and smiled happily: "Yan'er smells sister." Qingqing glared at her, reached out and pinched a piece and started chewing it.
He squinted his eyes and smiled: "It must be the big sister who has come down the mountain, right?"
The wheels rolled over the bluestone floor, and before they could stop, the two little girls jumped off the ground with a whoosh and dove into the store.
Qingqing took her sister's hand, frowned at Shuzi who was waiting for her at the door, and asked, "Who are you?"
Yan'er glared at her sister and said with a smile, "She is Yan'er's Shuzi sister, right?"
Xiao Hei, who was following the two of them, handed the beef in his hand to Shuzi and said with a smile: "You two are little idiots if you don't call me sister yet?"
Yan'er screamed: "Where's the gift?"
Qingqing asked thoughtfully: "You are Sister Shuzi, and you have a brother Xiaohu?"
Shuzi looked at the two little guys and laughed so hard: "He, he is still sleeping in your brother's room. You can pick him up."
So the two little girls ran to the backyard together, and soon there were shouts and shouts.
Shuzi pulled Xiao Hei to sit down at the table in front of the counter, and said softly: "I didn't expect that we have been apart for more than six years, and my brother has finally grown up."
When Xiao Hei heard this, he couldn't help hugging her and crying: "Ugh, Xiao Hei almost died in Beiqi."
Shuzi sighed, patted his shoulder gently and said, "You are not shy either. Once your two sisters see you, you will laugh to death."
Before Xiaohu could come out of the house, Gao Yue'er heard the noise and slipped out.
Looking at Xiao Hei without saying anything, he stretched out his hand and asked, "Do you have any treasures for me?"
Xiaohei let go of Shuzi's hand, looked at her with disgust and said, "Are you here to collect debt from me? I treated you badly in Beiqi? Why am I coming in now?"
The meaning is obvious. I haven’t had a sip of water yet?
Why are you asking Sister Shuzi for gifts like my two sisters?
Shuzi was boiling water and making tea. She looked at Xiao Hei and asked, "It's fun in the palace, why don't you stay there for a few more days?"
Xiao Hei shook his head: "I can't wait any longer. My sister just laughed at me and said that No. 47 is a doghouse..."
Qingqing repeated what she said on the road, causing the two of them to giggle.
Shuzi couldn't help but laugh and said: "The queen originally meant well, but she didn't expect that it would be a curse word when it came into the mouths of these two sisters."
"Where's sir?"
Xiao Hei picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip of the slightly cold tea, then looked at Shuzi and asked.
"My brother and the two old men went out shopping early in the morning. They said they wanted to buy some food. Aren't we afraid that our two sisters will be greedy when they come home?"
Shuzi took Xiao Hei's hand and looked at it again and again, her eyes full of love.
After thinking for a while, he patted Xiao Hei and said gently: "Lift your legs and show me."
After waiting for Xiao Hei to obediently put one leg on the chair, he took off the black shirt on his leg and stroked it carefully.
Looking at Xiao Hei's smooth skin without any scars, he sighed and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Gao Yue'er instantly recalled the first time he met Xiao Hei.
I couldn't help but cover my mouth and said quietly: "Sister Shuzi, you don't know, when I first met Xiao Hei, he was sitting in a wheelchair..."
Thinking of the situation when the two met on the street, Gao Yue'er couldn't help but sigh quietly.
He took Xiao Hei's hand and said, "I want to eat candied haws."
Xiao Hei chuckled: "Tomorrow, you and Sister Shuzi will take my two younger sisters to buy them."
Shuzi imagined Xiao Hei's appearance when both legs were broken, and said softly: "You have done enough for Da Zhou. My brother said not to do anything again in the future."
Xiao Hei shook his head and said, "I have already made it clear to you when I enter the palace this time."
Not to mention that the Prime Minister had been removed by Emperor Wu, but not cleared. In Xiao Hei's view, this was also an internal matter of the royal family, and it was not his turn to intervene.
If Qingyu hadn't been involved, he probably wouldn't have even taken a look outside the palace on the day he came back.
Rubbing his eyes, Xiaohu yelled a few times after being dragged out by his two sisters.
He came out and circled around Xiao Hei, then bent down and carefully checked his legs. After confirming that they were healed, he nodded.
He hugged Xiao Hei and screamed: "Brother Xiao Hei, Xiao Hu misses you so much."
Xiao Hei knew that he and his brother had just gone around in the long river of time, but to Xiao Hu's Shuzi, it was the past six hundred years.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help hugging Xiaohu and roaring twice.
He yelled: "I'm going to have a good drink with my brother tonight. Xiao Hei also misses Sister Shuzi and Brother Xiaohu. I miss you so much."
Gao Yue'er watched the three of them hugging each other, and waved to Yan'er who ran out laughing: "Xiao Yan'er, do you still remember sister?"
Yan'er stretched out her hand: "Sister Yue'er, where is the gift you gave Yan'er?"
When Gao Yue'er heard this, he couldn't help but scream and hugged her into his arms.
She chuckled and said, "Sister, will you accompany you to buy candied haws on a stick tomorrow?"
Yan'er turned her head and glanced at Qingqing, thought for a moment and asked, "Sister, it seems we haven't eaten candied haws on a stick since we got back."
Shuzi looked at the two little guys, then at Xiao Hei, and couldn't help but smile: "With these two little darlings, my brother will have a headache sometimes."
Li Xiuyuan likes to be quiet, but Shuzi just glanced at Yan'er and knew that this was a little guy who couldn't stay quiet.
After much deliberation, I had to worry about my brother.
Xiao Hei disagreed, looked at Shuzi and said, "Don't be afraid. I'll send them to school to study with my husband in a few days, and there won't be such a noise."
When Yan'er heard Gao Yue'er talk about candied haws, she immediately aroused the little girl's greed and shouted at her, "Yan'er wants to eat candied haws."
Shuzi looked at Xiao Hei and asked, "How about we go shopping together?"
Xiao Hei shook his head: "I'm here to look after the store and wait for my brother to come back. You and Xiao Hu can take them to play. They are looking forward to your return."
Xiaohu clapped his hands and shouted: "Go, let's go together, brother will buy you new clothes."
Gao Yue'er glanced at Xiao Hei and said softly: "Senior sister is resting, please take care of her."
Xiao Hei waved his hand and said: "Let's go, Qingqing, remember to buy a few more bunches of candied haws, I want to eat them too."
The two little girls held hands and walked out the door amid a burst of shouting.
In the blink of an eye, the wine shop that was noisy just a moment ago became empty in an instant, leaving Xiao Hei alone looking at the also empty long street in a daze.
At some point, Qingyu walked out of the yard and sat down opposite Xiao Hei.
Her face was still a little pale, and she looked at Xiao Hei and smiled lightly: "How is your Majesty?"
"Fortunately, everything went as they wished."
Xiao Hei poured out the remaining tea in the pot, cleaned it and replaced it with new tea. He couldn't help but sigh when he looked at her.
Said: "Sister Qingyu, you and I have paid off the favor of the empress. Don't work hard in the future." Xiao Hei didn't know when he would leave, so he had to explain to Qingyu.
Qingyu's eyes turned red, and she took his hand and asked, "What happened to the two ladies in the end?"
Xiao Hei smiled faintly: "What else can I do? The Queen built the foundation overnight. It is estimated that Li will be able to break through to Nascent Soul in the winter. I am here to pay off the debt for Sister Qingyu."
Qingyu was shocked when he heard this and couldn't help but ask: "Are you leaving?"
