Journey to the West: Nine-tailed demon emperor

Chapter 215
Nanzhan Buzhou, at the foot of a mountain, ten miles of maple forests are as bright as red clouds.

In the maple forest, a handsome and tall young man was dressed in sackcloth, holding a half-sized wild boar in one hand, and several elixir plants in the other.

stomping on...

There was a sound of footsteps, and the young man strode into a fenced yard, put the boar in the yard, and shouted happily to the wooden house:

"Yue'er, I'm back."

"Ahem, Tianfeng, you are back, come in quickly."

Not long after, there was a light coughing sound from the wooden house, and a slightly old voice sounded.

Ling Tianfeng walked into the wooden house quickly, and saw a thin, gray-haired woman walking out with food.

The woman was about five or sixty years old, her face was wrinkled, her back was slightly bent, and her hair was even more grizzled.

However, the woman's eyes are bright and energetic, and her temperament is gentle and generous. Although she is old and pale, she can see the charm of her youth.

Seeing the woman, Ling Tianfeng stretched out his hand to take the plate, and happily said:

"Yue'er, I picked a few more elixir plants this time, you can eat them later!"

That's right, the young man was none other than Ling Tianfeng, and the woman was none other than Ling Yue'er, the young girl back then.

Time flies, and the two have known each other for almost a hundred years.

Compared to Ling Tianfeng's extraordinary nature, Ling Yue'er, who is a mortal, cannot stand the erosion of time.

If it wasn't for Ling Tianfeng picking elixir every once in a while to nourish Ling Yue'er's body, Ling Yue'er would have passed away long ago.

Back in the day, Ling Yue'er kept mourning for her father for three years, and then with the help of relatives, friends and neighbors, she officially married Ling Tianfeng.

In this way, after the two got married, they lived a life of men farming and women weaving, harmonious and happy, and envious of others.

But everything is not perfect.

After ten years of marriage, Ling Yue'er never conceived and gave birth to a son and a half for Ling Tianfeng.

This also made Ling Yue'er sad for a time, wanting to reconcile with Ling Tianfeng, so as not to drag each other down.

And even more surprising things are yet to come.

Thirty years have passed, Ling Yue'er is already in her mid-mature, but Ling Tianfeng is still young.

In the end, Ling Yueer and Ling Tianfeng moved to Fenglin in the back mountain under the eyes of the neighbors who rejected them, and they lived there for decades.

"..."

Not long after, the two of them finished their meal and sat on the bluestone in the courtyard, quietly admiring the maple forest under the sunset.

At night, Ling Yue'er gradually felt cold, tightened her clothes, and whispered softly:

"Tianfeng..."

Ling Tianfeng was moved when he heard the sound, and he hugged Ling Yue'er in his arms without hesitation, and said softly:
"I'm here, always have been."

Looking at the sky dotted with stars, Ling Yueer flashed a trace of sadness, and said in a low voice:
"Tianfeng, I'm sorry."

Ling Tianfeng shook his head and said softly:
"Yue'er, why are you talking stupid again? What's wrong with the two of us?"

Feeling the warmth in her husband's arms, feeling the frail and old body, Ling Yue'er's eyes became even more sad, and she murmured:

"Tianfeng, Yue'er may have to break her promise and can't stay by your side all the time."

Hearing this, Ling Tianfeng paused, looked at Ling Yueer in his arms and said:

"Why, Yue'er, didn't you promise me that you would stay with me forever?"

Listening to Ling Tianfeng's tense voice, Ling Yue'er finally couldn't restrain her grief, tears welled up in her eyes, she turned her head and didn't dare to look at Ling Tianfeng's face.

But Ling Tianfeng who couldn't answer was nervous for a while, hugged Ling Yue'er tightly and said:

"What's wrong with you, Yue'er, tell me, I'm your husband, you must tell me about your affairs?"

Under Ling Tianfeng's unrelenting care, Ling Yue'er tried her best to stop her tears, a flash of determination flashed in her eyes, she looked directly at Ling Tianfeng and said:

"Tianfeng, I'm already old. After all, people can't escape life, old age, sickness and death. This is something you and I can't decide."

Hearing this, Ling Tianfeng's mind recalled the scene of Ling Yue'er mourning in front of her father's grave.

"No, no, Yue'er can't die, what should I do if Yue'er dies, I must not let Yue'er die."

Ling Tianfeng's eyes flickered, and he looked at Ling Yue'er and said firmly:

"Don't worry, Yue'er, I won't let you die. Tomorrow, I'll pick the elixir and nourish your body for Yue'er. I won't let you die."

Looking at the persistent Ling Tianfeng, Ling Yueer was filled with grief, held back tears, and gritted her teeth:
"Tianfeng, don't be stupid, those elixirs are useless to me, I can't escape!"

Hearing this, Ling Tianfeng's heart became more and more confused, he kept thinking of ways to prolong Ling Yue'er's life, and couldn't help murmuring:
"No, don't worry, Yue'er, I will help you, don't worry, Yue'er, I will help you."

Looking at Ling Tianfeng who was almost stupid, Ling Yue'er's eyes flashed with unbearable, and said:

"Tianfeng, if you really want to help me, go find the gods, the gods will definitely find a way."

Hearing the word "immortal", Ling Tianfeng was overjoyed, and asked quickly:

"God, what is the god, can you help Yue'er if you find the god?"

Ling Yue'er nodded, lowered her head, not daring to look into Ling Tianfeng's eyes, and said in a low voice:

"Father said that gods are omnipotent and can live forever. As long as you find the gods, Tianfeng, you will definitely help me."

Ling Tianfeng nodded happily, and said:

"Okay, okay, Yue'er, don't worry, I will go to the gods tomorrow, and I will definitely help you."

Looking at Ling Tianfeng who was full of hope, Ling Yue'er felt miserable, she forced a smile and nodded, quietly leaning against Ling Tianfeng's arms, looking enviously at the bright moon in the sky.

Just because they are both moons, the moon in the sky can last forever, but she... can't escape life, old age, sickness and death.

After nearly a hundred years of husband and wife life, Ling Yue'er is very aware of Ling Tianfeng's strangeness.

Whether it is immortality or infinite strength, it all proves that Ling Tianfeng is extraordinary.

Similarly, Ling Yue'er was also very aware of her physical condition, she was already on the verge of dying, and time was running out.

Since I didn't have much time to be with Ling Tianfeng, and Ling Tianfeng couldn't accept the fact, I had no choice but to trick him away.

I believe that with Ling Tianfeng's ability, he can live well anywhere, and even find a woman who loves her as much as himself.

Although Ling Tianfeng might blame himself, it's better than letting him watch him grow old and be powerless.

No matter for him or for himself, it was the best ending.

"..."

The next day, early in the morning, Ling Tianfeng started to carry food home.

After a while, Ling Tianfeng finally stopped, looked at the grain piled up in the cellar, smiled contentedly, turned around and walked back to the yard.

"Tianfeng, are you done with your work? This food is enough for me, so I don't need to move anymore!"

Ling Yue'er walked out with a bowl of clear water at some point, and looked at Ling Tianfeng helplessly and happily.

goo goo goo...

After gulping down the clear water, Ling Tianfeng smiled lightly and said:
"It's okay, Yue'er, this time I went to look for the gods, and I may not return for several months. If you don't leave enough food, then you will go hungry."

Ling Yue'er smiled bitterly, took out a big package and handed it over, and said:

"Here is a change of clothes, dry food for the road, and some leftover money. You take them with you. A big man can't go out without money."

Hearing this, Ling Tianfeng took the package, hugged Ling Yueer lightly, and said with a faint smile:

"Yue'er, don't worry, I'm no longer that stupid boy who has not experienced much in the world, I will take care of myself."

Ling Yue'er also gently hugged Ling Tianfeng, and said softly: "Go, be careful on the road."

Ling Tianfeng nodded, looked at Ling Yue'er reluctantly, strode out of the yard, and said goodbye:

"Yue'er, be careful when you are alone at home, I will be back soon."

Ling Yue'er stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at Ling Tianfeng tenderly, her eyes couldn't help flashing the scene when she sent Ling Tianfeng hunting back then.

Under some unexpected circumstances, Ling Yue'er chuckled lightly and said, "Go ahead, get some back, remember to be safe."

Hearing this, Ling Tianfeng was also taken aback for a moment, then chuckled lightly and said:
"Okay, definitely!"

After saying that, Ling Tianfeng turned around and left, only Ling Yueer leaned against the courtyard gate to see him off quietly.

Similar scenes, same characters, but as everyone knows, the ending is no longer the same.

.........

Time flies, three months later.

At night, in a deep jungle in Nanzhan Buzhou, Ling Tianfeng was holding a roast pig to taste the food, and looked at the bright moon in the sky without blinking.

I remember Yue'er said that when I miss her, I look at the moon.

As long as two people look at the moon together, the moon will imprint the appearance of the person they love.

"Yue'er, I miss you so much, but I haven't found a fairy yet."

"But don't worry, Yue'er, I will definitely find the fairy, and I will..."

In the moonlit night, a man's whisper sounded, full of longing.

.........

The same moment, the other side.

Ling Yueer sat on the armchair, quietly looking at the bright moon in the sky, the little moonlight was like Ling Tianfeng's face, constantly attracting Ling Yueer's attention.

The night is getting deeper, the wind is getting colder, and the body is getting sleepier.

call……

A gust of breeze blows, Ling Yueer gradually closes, the ups and downs in her chest disappear

The slightly drunken eyes and the smile on the corner of the mouth are full of peace, which means that he walked peacefully and not in pain.

And at the moment of Ling Yue'er's death, dots of moonlight fell from the bright moon in the sky, covering Ling Yue'er's body.

Under the white moonlight, Ling Yue'er's body changed and dissipated, turning into bits of starlight and dissipating.

call……

A gust of wind blows, the moonlight disappears, the starlight dissipates, leaving only an old stone bowl on the armchair.

"Giggle..."

For some reason, there seemed to be a girl's chuckle in the courtyard, which became weaker and weaker as time passed, until it disappeared.

.........

In the distance, Ling Tianfeng, who was eating meat, gave a sharp meal, feeling cramps in his heart, staring at the bright moon in the sky stupidly.

"Yue, Yue'er..."
