He stood on the southern cliff and looked quietly at the jungle on the opposite cliff.
There was a bluestone there, and there was a young woman wearing a tiger skin dress, sitting on the bluestone in a daze. There was a huge rat corpse lying next to it, half as tall as a person, and it looked a little mutated.
Although Lu Li only glanced at him casually, he still remembered that this person was from Miaojia Village.
As for the name, he couldn't tell.
In fact, this was the Yang Xu whom the Miao villagers had been searching for to no avail, but at some point, he ended up on Yunhe Peak, which was nearly a hundred miles away. No wonder the Miao villagers couldn't find him.
Even if he did get here, he would probably not dare to come up because he was afraid of the immortals on the mountain.
Yang Xu sat on the bluestone, her hands wrapped around her knees, her chin resting gently on her knees, staring in a daze at a small sapling in front of her. She wanted to force herself to forget that person, but the more she did, the more clearly that person's appearance became, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Brother Aren, I won't drag you down. When I figure it out, I will go back and find someone to marry..." Yang Xu's body trembled slightly, or she thought about her sadness, and suddenly she couldn't stop crying. Voice.
Lu Li and Yang Xu were at least five or six miles apart, but with his level of cultivation, this distance was almost negligible, and he easily took in Yang Xu's words.
Combined with what Miao Daren said to him before, he seemed to understand something. He couldn't help but sigh secretly, and then flew lightly in the direction of Yang Xu.
Yang Xu's eyes were blurred with tears when he suddenly noticed a white shadow in front of him. He was secretly startled and hurriedly rubbed his eyes, only to realize that it was not a ghost.
"Immortal, Immortal Master..."
After seeing Lu Li's appearance clearly, Yang Xu hurriedly walked down from the stone and saluted nervously: "Yes, I'm sorry, I disturbed the immortal master's practice..."
"Are you Yang Xu?" Lu Li shook his head and said with a gentle expression.
"Master Immortal, do you...recognize me?"
"I heard Miao Daren talk about you. Seeing you crying like this, have you encountered any difficulties?"
Hearing the words Miao Daren, Yang Xu felt a faint pain in her heart again, and shook her head: "Thank you, Senior Immortal Master, for your concern, junior, junior, everything is okay..."
"Ha! You're a stubborn girl. Okay, since you don't want to say it, forget it." Lu Li smiled, turned around and left.
For him, it was just curiosity that led him here. Since Yang Xu didn't want to talk about it, he naturally wouldn't ask for trouble anymore.
"Immortal Master!"
However, seeing Lu Li about to leave, Yang Xu couldn't help but shout.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Li stopped and turned around.
"Senior, do you think that a person who practices cultivation must be pure in heart and have few desires?"
After all, Yang Xu was still unwilling and asked in a trembling voice.
Lu Li shook his head and said, "Of course not. Practitioners are also human beings, and they also have seven emotions and six desires. Some practitioners even have heavier desires than ordinary mortals.
However, one thing is extremely difficult to change, that is, practitioners almost never choose to marry ordinary people. This does not mean that practitioners are superior and look down on secular mortals, but that the lifespan of practitioners far exceeds that of ordinary people.
You can imagine if you are a practitioner and have a life span of tens of thousands of years.
But your husband is a mortal, and he will become a sloppy old man in a few decades, and you can't do anything about it. This will be such a painful thing. "
Is that so?
Yang Xu seemed to understand something, but then she puzzled: "Why does it hurt? As long as I have had it before, it will be fine."
Lu Li smiled and said, "Yes, it's good to have it once. Why are you so persistent? What's the difference between letting go now and letting go decades later?"
Yang Xu suddenly realized: "It turns out that's what he thinks."
Then he smiled bitterly and said, "But, he has never owned me."
Lu Li said: "How does it count as possession? You liked him before, maybe, to him, it is already considered as possession."
After hearing this, Yang Xu finally understood Miao Daren. However, I couldn't help but feel a little bitter in my heart, and thought to myself: Brother Ah Ren looked away, but as for me, I have never owned it.
Thinking of this, he suddenly took a few steps forward and knelt on the ground with a plop: "Master Immortal Master, you have infinite power. Can you let me practice immortality too, so... I can be with Brother Aren forever."
Lu Li was stunned, frowned, looked at Yang Xu and said, "If my guess is correct, Miao Daren must have given you the Awakening Pill back then."
Yang Xu nodded and said lonely: "I have eaten. Brother Aren brought four pills back, and the other three and I each took one, but unfortunately, none of the four of us woke up."
"Hey! In this case, there is nothing I can do. Although I am a practitioner, I am not a true immortal. I think even a true immortal may not be able to allow a person without spiritual roots to cultivate as an immortal." Lu Li shook his head. road.
Suddenly, Yang Xu's heart fell to the bottom.
But the next moment, Lu Li had another thought: "However, it's not impossible to give it a try."
Yang Xu was delighted: "How do you try it?"
Lu Li said calmly: "You should get up first. The attempt I am talking about is to use a large amount of Awakening Pills, because some people in this world have extremely complex spiritual roots, and a single Awakening Pill may not be able to awaken them."
"If you are really that kind of person with mixed spiritual roots, you may still have a chance, but you shouldn't have too much hope, because such people are extremely rare."
When Yang Xu heard that there was hope, she immediately grasped at a life-saving straw and asked Lu Li to help her without hesitation.
When Lu Li saw this, he didn't say anything more. He immediately took Yang Xu to the front of his cave and asked her to wait outside. Then he returned to the cave and began to refine the Awakening Pill.
However, Lu Li didn't have high hopes for this.
Because the Awakening Pill in the Xuanling Realm is extremely powerful, it can no longer be compared to places like the Xuanzhen Realm. Even miscellaneous spiritual roots can usually be awakened with just one awakening pill.
Yang Xu sat at the stone table full of thoughts and waited quietly.
Not long after, Lu Li opened the stone door and walked out, placing ten jade vases on the table: "Come on, there are a hundred awakening pills here, and it is also your last chance. If you can't awaken with this, then It only shows that you really don’t have spiritual roots anymore.”
Yang Xu was so grateful that she quickly picked up a medicine bottle, but just when she was about to get up and sit cross-legged on the ground, she was interrupted by Lu Li: "No need to bother, you sit here and eat, and sit cross-legged Eating it on the ground makes no difference.”
"Yes, senior."
Yang Xu believed Lu Li's words deeply, took out an awakening pill and swallowed it directly. Then, he stared at his hands expectantly, feeling nervous inside.
However, Lu Li was very calm and walked aside to get firewood and boil some hot water...
