The setting sun is like blood, it is already dusk, and the reflected sky is red, which means that the day will usher in night.
The Ji family of Xianbei Fu Xiu is still as peaceful as before. Occasionally, some elders of the Ji family can be seen walking on the street. Some men and women can also be seen sitting under the remaining wild trees and teasing each other. At the same time, children led by their elders can be seen playing beside the green grass and flowers. The peaceful color of leisure and tranquility.
These immortal cultivating families have been passed down for thousands of years. Just like the Ji family, which has been passed down for thousands of years, time cannot change anything.
The Ji family at this time was exactly the same as when Ji Liao left home. Even the tiles on the houses or the stones that Ji Liao had thrown away many years ago had never moved.
The Ji family is closely connected with the mortal world and is located in a flat land. Apart from the Ji family, it is the living area of mortals. Therefore, the Ji family is not exactly like the immortal cultivating family in the world of cultivating immortals. Instead, it is like a super large family in the mortal world. .
When the sun was about to set, the people of the Ji family put down their work, went to the streets to chat with people they knew, and enjoyed a peaceful life leisurely. They seemed to be prosperous and prosperous. Mutually.
But among the laughter and laughter, there was a lonely courtyard.
In the center of the front yard of this courtyard is a chair, and on that chair sits an old woman.
This old woman has gray hair, a thin body, and her face is covered with spots. Her skin is sagging, as if there is no flesh and blood inside, and the wrinkles on her face are like dry rift valleys, full of ravines.
At this time, several young people from the Ji family who were walking passed by the door of the courtyard. When they saw the old woman in the courtyard, they all had a bit of unbearability in their eyes.
"Oh, this woman is so pitiful..."
"Yes. It is said that just a few years after he and his husband got married, the husband was killed while making a talisman."
"Yes, yes, she had a son at that time, and she worked hard to raise that child. Later, the child became the family's talisman master. They should have lived a beautiful life together, but who knew that the child suddenly disappeared? It will take a hundred years to leave."
"That boy is so heartless, just leaving his mother alone."
"Who knows, maybe it's outside..."
The last person said half of what she said, but everyone knew what she meant.
"It's dangerous outside. No one in the clan is safe. I'm afraid it's going to be more dangerous than bad." At this time, another woman with a loud mouth said it carelessly, regardless of that.
"Yes, when that boy left, he not only cheated her mother, but also cheated another woman."
"I heard that the girl was also a great beauty in the clan back then. It is said that the girl was engaged to the boy before he left home."
"That's right, that girl could have remarried. It's not settled yet. All she needs to do is return the bride price. Who knew she would choose that way."
"I can only say that the girl is too stubborn and wants to
Accompanying that boy, his mother remained a widow all her life, which made her mother angry to death. His father also died not long after. It is said that there is still a brother alive, but he broke off the relationship with her too early. "
"Yes, these two women are miserable people. It's only that boy who is to blame."
"By the way, what's that boy's name?"
"Hiss... It seems to be called... Ji Liao...!"
"Yes, yes, that's right, it's Ji Liao. I heard the elders say so."
They were chatting with each other, but little did they know that the sound of their conversation spread into the yard along the gentle breeze and reached the ears of the old woman.
The old woman's dim eyes moved slightly. She had heard too many words like this in the past hundred years.
The affairs of their family have long been known to the Ji family and have become a topic of conversation for them after dinner.
At the beginning, some people who were jealous of Ji Liao's ability to make money by painting talismans would sneer at Ji Shuangyue when they saw Ji Liao leaving home. However, as time passed and Ji Liao never returned, the ridicule gradually turned into sympathy and intolerance. .
After Ji Liao left, Ji Shuangyue waited there like a clay sculpture. After waiting for ten years, her body gradually became rickety, until she looked old now. Until now, she is just hanging her breath. That’s all.
At this moment, an old woman walked out from behind the courtyard. This old woman also had gray hair and was walking tremblingly, but she was holding a blanket in her hand.
When he arrived behind Ji Shuangyue, he gently covered Ji Shuangyue's body.
"Mom...it's getting cold, let's go back." The old woman said softly.
Ji Shuangyue nodded slightly, picked up the crutches on the side, and stood up tremblingly.
"Embroiderer, have you bought the coffin I asked you to order?" Ji Shuangyue said.
The old woman who came behind was none other than Ji Xiu Niang, who had arranged a marriage with Ji Liao before he left home.
After Ji Liao left, it was not only Ji Shuangyue who was ridiculed by others, but also Ji Xiu Niang, who was pointed out by outsiders, gossiped behind her back, and poured dirty water on her.
Although Ji Xiuniang is a woman, her personality is very similar to Ji Liao, even more so. She is extremely stubborn. Listening to those people's gossip, and because she has been with Ji Shuangyue for a long time and they are like mother and daughter, she cannot bear Ji Shuangyue's loneliness. Throughout his life, he resolutely stayed by Ji Shuangyue's side.
When her mother, Ji Jinhua, learned that Ji Xiuniang had done this, she was so angry that she fell ill, and she passed away not long after.
And just after Ji Jinhua died, her father also died of depression not long after.
Ji Xiuniang also had an older brother. Seeing that her parents died because of her, she completely severed ties with him and had no contact with him until he died.
In this way, Ji Shuangyue and Ji Xiuniang, mother and daughter, lived together for hundreds of years and remained widowed all their lives.
They all believe that Ji Liao never breaks his promise, and they are also waiting for the day when Ji Liao comes back. However, it has been a hundred years, and they know that Ji Liao will never break his promise.
They were afraid that they would never come back, but they just didn't want to accept this fact. They all held their breath and looked forward to the day when a miracle would happen.
"I bought it, I bought it. Your funeral arrangements have been prepared for you, so you can go without worry." Ji Xiu Niang said softly.
"How can I go with peace of mind..." Ji Shuangyue said softly in a hoarse voice, and then moved towards the house.
The wind blew past the figures of the two old women, making their backs look extremely desolate, which made people feel heartbroken.
"Look! What is that!"
At this moment, a member of the Ji family from the outside pointed at the sky and shouted.
Everyone heard the sound and looked around, only to see a huge monster flying towards the Ji family in the sky. The speed was incredibly fast, and it reached their heads in just the blink of an eye.
"What! This is a wolf!"
"How is it possible that a wolf can still have wings? This is a monster. Go call the family elders. There is an invasion from a foreign enemy..."
"Foreign enemy invasion...Foreign enemy invasion..."
"Run quickly..."
"Run!!!"
The Ji family is a cultivating family, but it only occupies a small piece of spiritual land. The world of cultivating immortals doesn't look down on it at all, so no foreign enemies have ever come here. For a moment, all the Ji family members panicked and scattered in all directions, screaming. .
At the same time, in the few places with spiritual energy in the Ji family, more than a dozen escaping lights shot up, dragging various brilliance, winding in the air and flying towards the monster.
But before those people could fly far, a majestic spiritual pressure suddenly fell from the sky, completely suppressing them in an instant. The flying magic weapon under them could no longer control it and fell from the mid-air.
Ji Changhong and Ji Wuxing barely managed to stand firm on the ground. Being swept away by this spiritual pressure, their faces were as pale as paper. Sensing this majestic aura, their souls were trembling slightly.
"Two uncles, who are these!" At this moment, a fat man in his sixties, with gorgeous clothes and delicate skin, stumbled over and said in shock.
"I don't know, but I sense this aura and the person coming here must have reached the Golden Core stage."
"What! Golden Core Stage, why did a Golden Core Stage monk come to our Ji family?" said the fat man.
"I don't know." Ji Wuxing shook his head slightly, then continued, "Ji Gang, as the clan leader, you..."
"Uncle, there is no need to say more. I know what to do. If that person has evil thoughts towards our family, I will lead my tribe to fight him to the end!"
The person who spoke was none other than Ji Gang, who had wiped the ancestor's statue with Ji Liao back then.
Ji Gang was only a teenager at that time and was still a little follower of Ji Feng.
However, due to Ji Changhe's sudden disappearance and his habit of spending money, Ji Feng squandered all his family's savings and disappeared quietly within a few years.
Died quietly at home.
Ji Gang, on the other hand, gradually grew up and developed the demeanor of a leader, and because of his accumulated experience, he had already reached the fifth level of Naqi at the age of forty, so he was selected as the patriarch of the Ji family.
Just as they were wondering, a deep voice suddenly came from the sky.
"I am Ji Liao, the talisman master of the Ji family. Please step back."
"What! Ji Liao!"
Ji Gang was shocked when he heard this.
He was very familiar with Ji Liao when he was a child, but Ji Liao suddenly disappeared. He thought Ji Liao was dead. Why did he come back again in the past hundred years, and his cultivation had reached the realm of the Golden Core stage.
"Ji Liao..." Ji Wuxing whispered, and suddenly he remembered something. His eyes widened, and he suddenly remembered that he and Ji Changhong had tested this person's Talisman Master qualifications a hundred years ago.
At that time, he and Ji Changhong were unwilling to give him more resources because his qualifications were too low. Why was he already at the golden elixir stage after only a hundred years? Ji Wuxing's face was full of shock and he looked at Ji Changhong beside him. He also saw the shock in the other person's eyes.
"Hey, Ji Liao... Ji Liao... why does this name sound so familiar!"
"Why do you have such a bad memory? Didn't we just say that the child those two women are waiting for is named Ji Liao. This man is the child of the old woman who left home a hundred years ago."
"Yes, yes, yes, look at my mind, I have forgotten! He is really back..."
"Back, back."
When Ji Shuangyue heard this voice, it was like thousands of thunders crashing past, and her old body could not stop trembling. She thought of this name countless times, and dreamed of it countless times in her dreams, but she did not expect that just when she was desperate, this person Back again.
"Niang Xiu, who was that person talking about just now?" Ji Shuangyue couldn't believe her ears and asked Ji Xiuniang beside her.
"Mom, Brother Ji Liao is back, he's back." Ji Xiu Niang had already burst into tears. Ji Shuang Yue had been waiting for a hundred years, and so was Ji Xiu Niang.
Her parents died because of her, her brother severed ties with her, and she was blamed by her tribe. No one knows how she survived these hundred years.
"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back..." Ji Shuangyue said.
