As a eunuch, I don't want to live forever

Chapter 372 See you in two years

Xiao Hongxiu kept staring at the Taoist priest.

It seemed that he wanted to see some other look in the Taoist priest's eyes.

nervous?

Scared?
worried?

Still reluctant?

but no...

He just listened, always with that eternal smile on his face.

Then he seemed to be talking to himself.

"This sword is ready."

Xiao Hongxiu also discovered what was carved in Taoist Master's hand...

a sword,

A sword carved from an unknown source.

It seemed like a piece of rotten wood.

It also seems to be made of wood taken from some building...

He holds a sword.

Considered it.

Quite satisfied.

Suddenly he looked at Xiao Hongxiu: "Here you go, do you want it?"

"want!"

Xiao Hongxiu nodded without thinking.

Her father never liked her practicing martial arts...

She said that what a girl's family needs most is to learn to be a female singer or something like that. Those who wield swords and swords really don't look like that.

If you get married one day, your husband's family won't like it.

So I can't have these swords or anything like that.

My younger brother does have...

My younger brother was born a few years ago and is now ten years old.

But his body was much weaker, so he later brought it to the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest gave him a book of swordsmanship, and he practiced regularly.

Can't become an immortal.

But since then, my body has never been sick again.

The younger brother also often danced with swords at home.

And Xiao Hongxiu could only watch helplessly...

Occasionally I want to touch it.

But dad always scolds me.

Later, I didn't dare to have it...

But if the sword given by the Taoist Master...even if it's just a wooden sword, that doesn't matter.

Dad would definitely not dare to scold him.

When he saw the Taoist priest, he was as respectful as meeting an immortal.

The sword flew out of Chen Luo's hand and landed lightly in Hongxiu's hand.

Xiao Hongxiu holds it.

He held a sword flower on his arm.

It's strange to say.

With this natural sword strike, a stone a hundred meters away was easily crushed by a sword energy, which made Xiao Hongxiu's hands tremble in fear.

Look at this sword,

He looked at Chen Luo again.

"This sword??? Is it an immortal weapon?"

"But it's still not worthy."

Chen Luo has seen the immortal weapon...

The Enlightenment Knife is an immortal weapon...

Pity.

That knife didn't suit me, so I threw it in Wenxin Pavilion...

After going around in circles for 500 years, I finally got together five mysterious items, but finally threw them away out of fear of trouble.

Now it falls into the hands of Jiang Yao, the young master of the Phoenix clan and the current Empress of Yan.

Of course.

He has only seen the Enlightenment Knife, an immortal weapon.

Nothing else.

The sword in Hongxiu's hand is just a slightly more powerful magic weapon.

Using a beam from the Sutra Pavilion in the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty as the raw material, I also obtained a piece of bluestone from the Sutra Pavilion, and then added a real dragon bone and some special materials, and finally kneaded them together... and finally carved them with the knife in my hand. made.

The level is around level 13.

Perhaps it contains too many meanings... This sword has a tendency to enter the Zhen sect.

It is impossible to say that it is an immortal weapon.

The immortal weapon is much more powerful than that...

"But I still think it's so powerful. Does the Taoist Master really want to give it to me?"

"As long as you treat it well, I don't have to give it to you. After all, this sword still has some meaning to me."

"That's natural."

Hongxiu nodded: "By the way, what's its name?"

"scene……"

"Light Sword?"

"Ok!"

He appeared during the Tianqi period of the Great Zhou Dynasty...

One sword at a time.

Now I have Tianqi, Meiji, Tianshou, Yongle, Jianwu, Divine Grant, Hanwu, Yongding, Suihe...

This Scenery Sword is the last one.

It was also the last sword in the entire Great Zhou era.

After this, Chen Luo would not refine a new sword.

Naturally, this sword is also important.

Hong Xiu put away the sword with satisfaction, and suddenly remembered...

"Taoist Priest, you changed the subject!"

"Have it?"

"I said, I want to get married..."

"and then?"

"Don't you ask me why I want to get married?"

"It doesn't matter whether you ask or not..."

"why?"

"For our family, this outcome will never come true."

Chen Luo smiled slightly.

married?

Maybe.

But she is Ping An’s mother...

So there is always only one ending for her.

As for the fluctuations that will occur along the way, they are just like one or two forks in the road of life. In the end, you will still go back to the original path.

Therefore...

married?

How to exist?

Xiao Hongxiu doesn’t understand...

Just sitting on the swing.

Rippled by the breeze.

I don’t know when the sunset has gradually set in the west...

she says.

"My father said that I am already sixteen, and at this age, it is time for me to get married. He found a good family for me... I guess it won't take long before they come to propose marriage."

Although Chen Luo never asked.

But Xiao Hongxiu still told Chen Luo the reason.

"Do you want to get married?"

Chen Luo asked.

She shook her head: "I don't know..."

"do not know?"

"Well, I don't know..."

Xiao Hongxiu said: "I have someone I like, but I don't know if he likes me, and I feel there are many things between me and him."

"Perhaps, this is actually what you think about?"

"is it?"

Xiao Hongxiu lowered her head and looked at the people under the tree.

"Then tell me, does he like me?"

Chen Luo was silent.

no answer……

Just looking up at the dusk setting in the west...

Like it?
She doesn't understand... He and she no longer like such simple things.

During these five or six hundred years, after she appeared, I had such fun during this long period of time.

How can his relationship with her be explained by just liking it?

"It's getting late."

Chen Luo raised his head and said to Xiao Hongxiu: "It's time for you to go home..."

……

Chen Luo went back with Hongxiu.

He never goes to her house...

No matter what.

It's just that sometimes, he feels that he still needs to keep some distance from the Qiao family...

At least Hongxiu needs to be given a free space.

Therefore, Chen Luo has not been to Qiao's house since his first birthday 15 years ago.

When he saw Chen Luo and Hong Xiu arriving, Qiao Ji was a little stunned.

Then he hurriedly brought his wife up to salute him.

"I have seen the priest..."

There is also a ten-year-old boy.

Salute respectfully: "Qiao Si has met Mr...."

Qiao Si is Qiao Hongxiu’s younger brother.

"Exceptor Qiao."

Chen Luo saluted slightly...

"Has it been many years since the Taoist priest came to my Qiao's house?"

"Calculate the time, it's been 15 years..."

"Fifteen years is a long time."

"It's a bit long."

Chen Luo was thinking: "Can I invite some members of the staff to come with us for a walk?"

Qiao Ji nodded: "Of course."

The two of them walked out of Qiao Mansion and walked on the street...

Qiao Ji didn't understand what the Taoist Master wanted to do with him. He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out.

Until I couldn't help it.

"Taoist Priest, are you looking for Qiaoji?"

"You just want to invite me to watch a story?"

"Story? What story?"

"You'll find out soon."

The two came to a river.

Chen Luo asked Qiao Ji to lower his head and look at the lake...

Qiao Ji lowered his head.

The surface of the lake was sparkling, and there were only reflections of himself and the Taoist priest in the lake. But what else could be there?
But soon his pupils widened.

The surface of the lake is twisting, as if there is another world...

That is a woman.

Women are good-looking and familiar,

With a smile.

Meeting someone in a romantic place...

She said: "You are famous all over the world for not fighting for your father-in-law. It's not bad to see you today..."

later.

The scene changed again.

Scene by scene.

Like flowing light.

Like a phantom.

He saw the woman crying under the tree... When she looked up, her eyes were filled with tears.

He saw that the woman was pale, and when he saw the man, he was smiling.

He also saw the woman and the man living in Chang'an for 30 spring and autumn years... and finally they were separated forever.

Qiao Ji didn't know how long he had been watching.

It seems to have witnessed the acquaintance, love, and separation of the woman and the man.

30 years?
50 years?
century?

maybe longer...

It's been so long that it seems like several lifetimes.

When you look up...

The Taoist priest stood there.

Look at the stream.

Qiao Ji fell silent...

If you didn't understand why Chen Luo appeared in Qiao's house at first, how could your daughter get the protection of the immortal?

Where don’t you know now?

Even Chen Luo recognized his identity...

"It turns out that the Taoist priest does not want to compete with the immortals..."

"Do you know our family?"

"My Qiao family comes from Qingxi, Danzhou... I followed my ancestors from Qingxi 400 years ago, and then came to Lanzhou. This is a story about immortals.

My Qiao family has known for generations that there is a temple on the other side of Qingxi River, which is the Temple of Miracle Doctors... worshiping it is an immortal.

It's just a long way, but several generations of people have never returned to Qingxi, nor have they gone to the Temple of Miracle Doctors to light three pillars of fragrance for the immortal. "

I see……

A stream of Qingxi.

Naturally, he recognized it.

Qiaoji asked again: "Hongxiu, is this the Red Sleeve Fairy?"

"Yes……"

Chen Luo replied.

Qiao Ji said nothing more...

Just nodded.

Leave.

Back to Qiao's house.

Not long after... the Qiao family declined all proposals for marriage.

No one knew what was going on, but Xiao Hongxiu was extremely happy.

Because after this, her father would never stop her from touching the sword.

But maybe it's also because of this.

Xiao Hongxiu left Lanzhou.

before leaving.

She found Chen Luo.

she says:

"I'm going to see the world, will Taoist Master come with me?"

Chen Luo wanted to nod.

Can……

Finally shook his head.

"This world is a big place. Our family has been with you for 16 years. Now it's time for you to go and see for yourself."

"But didn't the Taoist priest say that he would tell me the answer that year?"

"When the time comes, you will naturally know."

"Ok."

Xiao Hongxiu asked again: "Taoist Master, there is one more thing...0"

"???"

"Tell me, does he know that I like him? What does he think?"

Chen Luodao: "He knows, he also likes you..."

Xiao Hongxiu's face turned crimson.

But he soon puffed up his chest.

Holding a sword of light.

Fist.

"See you in two years, Taoist Priest!"

"it is good!"

Chen Luo smiled slightly.

Send Hongxiu away...

Until she disappeared from the shadow.

He spoke to the empty surroundings: "She will be handed over to a few people. Please... protect her."

There is a wolf.

Three puppets appear.

He saluted Chen Luo from a distance and followed behind Hong Xiu.

Chen Luo turned around.

He looked at the woman on the side and said, "Then it's just you and me..."
