Longevity begins with alchemy

Chapter 36
In the room, the two of them sat down on the chairs, looking at each other silently. They obviously had a lot to say, but they didn't know where to start.

Su Yi looked at Lu Guangtian's face, which now showed a bit of vicissitudes of life, and knew that he had not yet gotten over Chunxiang's death.

Lu Guangtian likes Chunxiang, and Su Yi knows this.

It's a pity that King Xiang is interested, but the goddess is ruthless.

But who is the little girl named "Fangcao"?Su Yi wanted to ask, but didn't know how to ask.

The two sat for a while, and finally Lu Guangtian spoke first, "Then Shao..."

Su Yi continued: "Shao Juan."

"You and her?"

"She took the initiative and I didn't refuse."

Lu Guangtian nodded after hearing this and said with some emotion: "It's good. The road to spiritual practice is long. It's a blessing to have someone to go hand in hand with."

Conversation is like pulling out the thread, and it's good to get started.Next, Lu Guangtian talked about this journey, from renting the spirit boat to delivering the spirit boat and riding the teleportation circle.

From the northern border to Zhongzhou, it was the first time to see a city as large as a common city.

The customs and customs along the way...

Lu Guangtian talked a lot but didn't mention the matter between him and Chunxiang, but it was obviously unavoidable and he finally came back to it.

Lu Guangtian began to speak with a somewhat heavy expression:
"She and I traveled all the way across the country, to the coast of the East China Sea, and finally returned to Chunxiang's hometown."

"It's just that such a long time has passed and the world has changed. The Song family, the original cultivator family, has been almost annihilated. Not only can they not retain their spiritual veins, but even the clan members have long since fallen apart."

"Chunxiang and I searched in many places and finally found the descendants of the Song family in a place called Dongfufang City."

"Perhaps Heaven can't bear to cut off the Song family's cultivation bloodline. No one in the Song family has been able to open the spirit for several generations. However, this generation actually has a descendant who can practice, which is the Fangcao you saw before."

"The name Fangcao was given to her. As for why she was named this, please read the letter Chunxiang wrote to you."

As he spoke, Lu Guangtian took out a letter and handed it to Su Yi.

Su Yi glanced at Lu Guangtian and took the letter.

After opening it, the Juanxiu font looks slightly familiar, just like it did a few years ago.

"Fellow Taoist Su Yi, show your faith like your face."

"I am grateful day and night for being saved; and because I failed to tell everything about the past, I feel regret all day long! You are so smart, even if I don't say anything, you can guess nine points..."

"When I left home in anger, I was determined to find the Qingqiu White Bone Fire. Not only did I want to prove my talent, but I also wanted to use it to revive the Song family and restore the Song family's former glory..."

"No matter what fate does, I overestimated myself. Not only did I fail to find the Qingqiu White Bone Fire, but I also ended up with my body buried in a foreign land and my soul inhabiting a willow tree for thousands of years..."

"..."

"I know that you have a noble character. Firstly, you hate me for my clever looks, secondly, you hate me for deceiving your brother, and thirdly, you hate me for pretending to be a maidservant to take your own life...I dare not make excuses for this. It's all because of my stubbornness..."

"..."

"Begging the emperor to pity the slaves, the feeling of "thousands of years of obsession has finally come to nothing", I can accept the blood of the descendants of the Song family as my disciples and teach them the way of alchemy. I don't dare to expect them to regain the lintel of the Song family. I hope that they can continue the blood of the Song family's cultivation. , not to be cut off..."

"I will go to Jiuquan first to repay Fangcao's death. If there is an afterlife, I will repay Lu Lang's true love..."

After Su Yi read the letter, he sighed a little in his heart.

Thinking of Song Qianqian's millennium obsession, only to prosper the Song family, who wants to return to his homeland, but can't even see a piece of rubble.

No matter what your thousand-year-old sect or ten-thousand-year-old family, you can never escape the passage of time and the vicissitudes of life.

This leads me to think that for individuals, the journey to practice is long, and there are withered bones along the way. If you don’t become an immortal, you will eventually die!
Seeing Su Yi finish reading the letter, Lu Guangtian took out a storage bag and handed it to Su Yi, "Before Chunxiang passes away, divide all the items into two parts."

"You take a look first. After reading it, if you agree to accept Fangcao as your disciple and teach him the way of alchemy, you can keep the items inside."

"The other one contains some belongings, which will be kept as fragrant grass for future establishment." Su Yi took the storage bag, and his mind sank into it. He saw that it was basically jade slips and other items, except for one thing.

Su Yi's mind moved and he took out the object and held it in his hand.

I saw this thing was about a foot long and shaped like jade...

Lu Guangtian explained on the side: "This object is called Xuanyuan Bone. It is a magical weapon made from a piece of finger bone from the ancient giant clan."

"Chunxiang said that if you want to find the Qingqiu White Bone Fire in the future, you can use this thing to contain it after you subdue the strange fire."

This is quite different from Su Yi's previous guess. He had guessed the purpose of this bone before.

Putting away the "Xuanyuan Bone", Su Yi quickly browsed the jade slips. First he saw a volume of "Song Family Alchemy Book", and the rest were some exercises, spells, classics, etc., which seemed to be all It is a collection of the Song family.

He didn't have the intention to take a closer look at this time. After thinking about it, he finally asked: "Brother Lu, when did you..."

Lu Guangtian took the words and said slowly: "Not long after I left here, I noticed something strange about Chunxiang."

"It's just that she didn't say anything, so I didn't ask. I could only watch her getting haggard."

"When he arrived in Zhongzhou and saw that everything had disappeared, Chunxiang began to get sick."

"When I protected her and found the descendants of the Song family, she began to explain the funeral arrangements..."

Lu Guangtian spoke very slowly, as if he was recalling the past. Su Yi regretted that he should not ask again, which made Lu Guangtian's scars that had not yet healed open again.

He wanted to interrupt it several times, but he couldn't bear to wake Lu Guangtian from his memories.

At this time, Su Yi had even more hatred for Song Qianqian, "This woman has done a lot of harm to people. She knew that she could give Lu Guangtian nothing, but she still played with his heartstrings. Even after many years, Lu Guangtian still couldn't let go of her."

"...She was in my arms, vomiting blood, and the blood was all pure black, with no serious color at all..."

"I have no regrets for her. Being able to see her die in my arms is a great blessing to me. It's a pity that I couldn't take her back home as soon as possible..."

After hearing this, Su Yi realized that Song Qianqian had never told Lu Guangtian the whole story. In the end, this honest and honest man had only seen the bright side of Song Qianqian's holy white dress.

Su Yi hesitated in his heart whether to tell the matter, but finally gave up.

The matter has passed, so why add salt to the wound again? I just hope that time can take away all the pain and Lu Guangtian can get over his grief as soon as possible.

Finally, Lu Guangtian handed both storage bags to Su Yi, "Brother, please accept the grass."

"Chun Xiang finally said to me, without the fragrant grass, there would be no Chun Xiang and the breath of spring."

"I have accepted Fangcao as my daughter, and I promise Chunxiang that I will definitely raise Fangcao into an adult!"

Su Yi: "..."

What more can he say?
The conditions offered by the other party were generous enough and did not violate his long-standing "trading" principle.

At the same time, it was Lu Guangtian's wish.

However, the two men could not "escape" Song Qianqian's grasp after all. This made Su Yi somewhat angry, but he had nowhere to vent.

Then, Shao Juan came to call the two of them to eat.

During the dinner, Su Yi talked about taking Fangcao as his disciple.

Naturally, no one objected, and the two children Huzi and Xiaosu were especially happy.

Lu Guangtian's return made the room tense.

Su Yi meant to change to a larger courtyard, but this aroused unanimous opposition from everyone except Fangcao, who all said they had feelings for this courtyard and their habit of living there.

In the end, Lu Guangtian volunteered to renovate the divided rooms. Su Yi didn't care about these things at first, and thought that giving Lu Guangtian something to do would relieve his pain, so he agreed.
