Chapter 78

Li Zhengran couldn't bear the separation between master and apprentice, and considering that old man Xu was getting older, he needed someone to take care of him.

Therefore, he proposed that Sun Yunxi should stay in Old Man Xu's courtyard during the recent period. She only needed to come over during the day and help him with some trivial matters.

In this way, it can be regarded as a process for the three of them to gradually adapt.

It's a pity, maybe because my wish is over, and there are no regrets in this world.

Old Man Xu, who had lived for a hundred years, could not stay long after all.

Half a month later, he lay on the bed, lost his breath in a deep sleep, and passed away suddenly.

At the same time, there was a heartbreaking cry.

Li Zhengran will always remember the last look he took when he rushed to the other party's house.

This old spiritual farmer, who had worked hard all his life, slept so peacefully before leaving.

With a kind smile on his face, he seemed to have attained enlightenment and become an immortal.

After that, old man Xu’s courtyard was filled with yellow papers all day long, and many neighborhood monks came to pay their respects after hearing the news.

Sacrificial silks, gold and silver ingots, red candles and other objects filled the mourning hall, and the mage from Xiancheng was invited to preside over it. The chanting of the rebirth mantra seemed to turn into a spiritual ship, ferrying the soul away.

The funeral lasted for seven days, and Li Zhengran did his best to make Mr. Xu finish the last journey in a glorious manner.

Afterwards, Sun Yunxi, who endured her grief, offered to cremate Mr. Xu's body and place it in an urn.

Moreover, he planned to leave Immortal City in person after he achieved success in cultivation and bury him in the ancestral land of the Sun family in Cangzhou Prefecture.

In this regard, Li Zhengran nodded silently.

He knew that for the rootless old man Xu, perhaps the mundane place in Cangzhou Prefecture was his best destination compared to this huge fairy city.

The only thing worth considering is that Cangzhou Mansion is not close. If you go back hastily, you will inevitably encounter Jiexiu on the wilderness road.

Sun Yunxi obviously knew that she owed him too much and didn't want to cause any more trouble to him.

Thinking of Old Man Xu's instructions during his lifetime, Li Zhengran kept his promise and took the initiative to help Sun Yunxi move into his small courtyard and free up an empty house for him to live in.

At the same time, he also took the other party to find the dental shop of the Xu Chamber of Commerce, invalidated the spiritual contract signed by Old Man Xu, retreated from the courtyard, and recovered some of the spiritual stones.

In this regard, Sun Yunxi saw all this and was extremely grateful to him.

From that day on, she silently put away all the thoughts in her heart, kept in mind old man Xu's instructions before his death, and followed Li Zhengran wholeheartedly.

"This is Yuyuancao, with green branches and leaves and green stems. It can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and moisturize qi and blood."

In the courtyard, Li Zhengran stood in front of a table and placed some of the first-order low-grade elixirs in sequence.

At the same time, I saw him patiently giving instructions and introducing in a gentle tone: "This is a campanula flower, all silvery white. It takes five years to grow and mature in five years."

"If taken, it can warm up spiritual power and nourish vitality. Especially for monks with wind-attribute spiritual roots, the effect is more obvious."

Hearing this, Sun Yunxi, who was opposite him, nodded heavily, took a pen and paper, and wrote it down one by one.

It has been a month since Old Man Xu passed away, and before she knew it, she had gradually come out of the shadows.

The paleness and grief were hidden in her heart, and two traces of life gradually appeared on her wheat-skinned face.

Those clear almond eyes, although still a little haggard and gloomy, gradually revealed the hope of life.

During this period of time, Li Zhengran did not really treat her as a maid.

In addition to the daily care of spiritual plants, he also asked the other party to help collect the things needed for medicine powder.

Occasionally, she would be troubled to run errands, contact people from the Liu Chamber of Commerce, and hand over the seal script.

As for the spiritual stones, they will provide three pieces to each other as a reward every month, and occasionally give some low-level medicine powder and talismans as a form of care.

Both parties have a tacit understanding of maintaining an appropriate distance, as if they are gradually adapting to each other's presence.

"There are many kinds of elixirs, and their effects are different." "Just do it step by step. Write it down first and then understand it. Don't worry."

Li Zhengran was very pleased that she could come out of the shadows and smiled gently.

Considering that the daily chores needed to be handled by the other party, he took the initiative to teach her how to identify low-level elixirs and deal with the fur of monsters.

Only in this way can he truly free up his hands and feet to complete other things while practicing.

"Yes, Brother Li."

Sun Yunxi held a pen and paper and lowered her head. Her wheat-skinned face was serious, and she nodded heavily.

Compared to the past, life today is undoubtedly much easier.

Not only do you gain more spiritual resources every month, but you also learn a lot of knowledge about immortality that you have never been exposed to before.

Inexplicably, she sometimes feels that this kind of life is a bit unreal, as if it is a dream.

She was afraid that if she made a mistake one day, Li Zhengran would be unhappy and drive her away.

Every time she thought about this, she was cautious.

Seeing this scene, I felt the cowardice in her respectful tone.

Li Zhengran sighed secretly, his eyes seemed happy but helpless.

One month of getting along seemed short, but it was enough for him to feel the other person's frugality and diligence in all aspects of food, clothing, and daily life.

There is no trace of transcendence or any greed.

Get up early and go to bed late every day, tidy up the courtyard, prepare spiritual meals, and take care of spiritual plants.

For everything he explained, he was never perfunctory and could hardly find too many faults.

He is very satisfied with this.

"Okay, that's it for today."

Li Zhengran smiled and shook his head, indicating that he would continue tomorrow.

Hearing this, Sun Yunxi nodded quickly, put down the pen and paper, and hurriedly helped him put away the desk and sundries.

Seeing this scene, he seemed to sense her nervousness. Without saying a word, the Golden Jade Silkworm at the side leaped obediently onto her shoulder with a buzz.

hum!
In the roar of the urn, it can be seen that it is shaking its tentacles and gently rubbing the opponent's neck, seeming to comfort and comfort.

In the past few years, we have been taking care of spiritual plants together in the spiritual field, and we have become quietly familiar with each other.

The moment their eyes met, inexplicably, Sun Yunxi felt her tense mind relax a little as she looked at those bean-sized eyes.

Perhaps feeling the closeness of Jin Yucan, she couldn't help but raise her palm and gently touch her little head.

Seeing this scene, Li Zhengran smiled.

Memories flashed through his mind, and a person and an animal overlapped with the figures from the past before his eyes.

"Boy Li, come quickly, there's something good."

"This is a golden silkworm, a demonic beast with dual attributes of wind and wood. If it succeeds in breaking out of its cocoon and transforming into a moth, it will be many times more powerful than the Yang family's spirit bee insect."

"In the future, if you have guys to help you farm, you won't have to trouble the old man anymore."

The leaky front teeth are exposed in a smile, and the old face of the valley quietly emerges.

In an instant, the look of nostalgia on Li Zhengran's face flashed away.

"Uncle Xu, have a safe journey."
