Chapter 221： time is like water

Zhang Tongan leaned over, meticulously arranged Qin Xi's makeup, and neatly trimmed her sparse white hair. Even when Zhang Shiping hurried over, he didn't turn around and look back.

Zhang Shiping seemed to be holding his breath in his chest, and cried out sadly, "Mother!", and threw himself on the side of the bed.

Even if he practiced "Changing Yuan Gong" and endured the pain of splitting his mind and soul, his eyes had never shed a single tear, but at this moment, the tears flowed down.

Zhang Shiping blamed himself in his heart, if only he could be faster, faster, maybe he could see his mother for the last time! If I didn't go to the South China Sea, if I didn't hurry to break through to the fifth floor of foundation building and retreat for three years after I came back, if I... my mind was in a mess, all kinds of regrets flooded my heart, and Zhang Shiping slapped me again and again The face became heavier every time.

After a few strokes, Zhang Tongan finished his wife's makeup. He grabbed Zhang Shiping's hand and said in a deep voice, "Spare your mother more time!"

He turned his head and took a deep look at his wife. She was nearly seventy years old and was no longer as young as before, but in his heart, no one could replace her. These days, even among the secular middle-class officials, gentry and rich men, which one is not three wives and four concubines, but Zhang Tongan has only one wife, Qin Xi, from the beginning to the end, and the two have been in harmony for decades, and have three sons and two daughters. .

After Zhang Tongan asked Zhang Shiping to stay, he leaned on a cane and walked out step by step, stepping over the threshold with difficulty. With his cultivation base in the foundation period, he is only a hundred years old, and he is in a strong body, so he can't even walk with a cane, but because his wife is old and walks slowly, he also took a cane , The two walked together slowly like this.

It's been almost ten years since he pretended to be holding a cane, and he's already gotten used to it. He has this crutch in his hand. After Zhang Tongan walked out, he inexplicably thought of Elder Zhang Qiyue, who had passed away for many years. He used to like to use a cane, so he wondered if he was the same. After walking out the door, Zhang Tong'an turned his head and took a look inside the house, then walked towards the yard lonely from his back.

The few old vines in the yard were clinging to the wooden frame, the dark green leaves were very dense, and the green leaves covered the vines. This is the vine he and his wife planted with their own hands a few months after they got married, saying that they will never be separated. It's just that from now on, he will be left alone. He sits weakly on the stone chair in the yard, looking at the vines and thinking, "Xi'er, I broke my promise. The Zhang family is still here. I can't be with you." Let's go together. If there is reincarnation in the world, count me as selfish, you have been waiting for me for hundreds of years! Wait for me, if you can't wait, you should reincarnate first and go back!"

Over the courtyard, Lin Shuangxuan circled several times over Zhang's mansion. He heard intermittent crying from the house, so how could he not be clear about the situation. He was older than Zhang Tong'an, but he didn't marry a wife, he just took a few concubines and gave birth to him a few sons, just passing on the incense. Immortal cultivators can't have deep feelings, once they get stuck in it, they can't extricate themselves. He looked at Zhang Tong'an below, and sighed that the rest of his life would be long, and some of them would suffer.

Thinking of this, he controlled the flying magic weapon and slowly landed. Zhang Tongan saw that this person was wearing the clothes of an inner sect disciple of the Zhengyang Sect, and he had no malicious intentions, so he endured his grief and stood up, "Zhang Tongan, the head of the Zhang family, has seen a fellow Taoist of the Zhengyang Sect, please sit down."

"Lin Shuangxuan met Patriarch Zhang, please mourn!"

…

…

Zhang Shiming, who was in charge of the Zhang family's business in the secular world, rushed back quickly. At nearly forty years old, he was not as inexperienced as he was when he was young. Over the years, his kung fu has not fallen, but even after receiving the news from the family, he switched horses and ran all the way, and by the time he arrived, Zhang's mother had already been buried.

"Second brother, third brother." When he arrived in front of Zhang's mother's grave, Zhang Shiping and Zhang Shihao were kneeling in front of the tombstone, burning paper money one by one, and the flames burned the yellow paper into ashes little by little. Ascending into the air, it was blown away by the wind.

Zhang Shiming was kneeling in front of the tombstone, holding paper money and putting them into the brazier one by one.

The three of Lin Shuangxuan also left a few days ago.

After Lin Shuangxuan, Huang Zhou and Fu Dahai who arrived behind him bowed three times to Zhang's mother, Zhang Shiping, who was dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, sent them off a few steps. Please let them send a message to Zongmen that he wants to stay at home and keep his filial piety. three years. As long as this kind of thing is true, Zhengyangzong will not disagree.

So the three comforted Zhang Shiping a few times, then drove the flying magic weapon towards Zhengyangzong, not fast, not as eager as when they came.

Time passed slowly. In front of Zhang's mother's grave, Zhang Tong'an leaned on a cane, put down the bamboo basket in his hand, and took out three sticks of incense. The incense plant was planted, and he said to Zhang Shiping who was sweeping the fallen leaves: "Your mother must be very happy to have you by my side for the past three years. I will not stop you if you want to observe mourning for three years, but now three years have passed. You should go too, and practice hard in the Zhengyang Sect, if you can become a real person, your mother will be even happier."

"Wait for me to finish sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground!" Zhang Shiping was dressed in white, and nodded numbly, maybe after he cultivated immortality, his mother would be even more unhappy!

When he was a child and hadn't started to practice, he was almost at the knee of Mrs. Zhang. But since his three spiritual roots and three yang spirits were detected in his family, he began to teach Zhang Shiping to practice. All the family taught him was how to practice and how to maintain the family's ideas. From then on, in order not to disappoint his father and his family, Zhang Shiping devoted himself to cultivating, but he gradually ignored his mother's feelings.

And since he joined the Zhengyang Sect, the number of times he came back was even less. Over the years, the total number of times was only about twenty times, and in the last few years, Zhang Shiping did not return to the family even once. So at the very beginning, the more Zhang Shiping thought about it, the more he blamed himself, UU Reading But after all, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

He looked at the tombstone, his eyes were dim, he only knew how to cherish what was lost, but it was too late!

"Third brother, don't worry, I'll watch over here, mother." Zhang Shihao patted Zhang Shiping's shoulder, death is like a lamp going out, but the living still have to live on, and it's better to live better!

…

…

Half a month later, Zhang Shiping brought three young members of the Zhang family to join the Zhengyang Sect, and asked them to take over the management positions of the three old Zhang family members in Yekun Mountain.

After Zhang Shiping came back, he first went to Lin Shuangxuan, Huang Zhou, and Fu Dahai, visited them, and then went to the Palace of Internal Affairs to report.

Then he returned to his own cave. The spirit stones in the Five Elements Absolute God Array in his cave had already been exhausted. Fortunately, Kunshan was in the Zhengyang Sect, and there were three old people from the Zhang family watching. Even the entire formation will be cleaned up by random cultivators passing by.

After the three elders of the Zhang family taught the three young people of the Zhang family about Kunshan, they all chose to retire. After Zhang Shiping returned to Mount Yekun, he tidied up the cave, installed the spirit stones, and raised the formation again.

Time is leisurely like water, passing quietly, and the spring and autumn in Kunshan Mountain flow, the leaves turn green and then yellow, yellow and then green.
