Chapter 1005 What Is an Immortal?
At night, Wucheng Night Market.
Chen Xun was selling skewers there leisurely, and the fragrance spread all around, making Xiao Wuhen swallow his saliva secretly.
Dad's cooking skills are really unique, as if there is nothing he can't do in this world.
At this time, there was a long queue in front of the skewers stall, and the vendors from all sides were jealous. My god... did you add aphrodisiac to your skewers? It smells so good? !
They even wanted to buy a few skewers and learn the skills secretly.
But compared to the past, this skewers stall had no name, and Chen Xun's expression was also very calm, and he didn't show off his 16 abdominal muscles to show off his strong body.
While grilling skewers, he raised his head, looking at the crowds of people coming and going, looking at the peaceful lights of thousands of homes, and looking at the smiles on the corners of the people's mouths here.
Unconsciously, he also smiled.
"Master, I finally did it." Chen Xun gently raised his head to the sky. Compared with the mortal world in the great world, the mortal world here made him feel more at home. He said sadly, "I didn't disappoint you and Master's wife."
Huh~~~
At this time, the sky was full of prayer lanterns flying in the sky, and the past customs have been preserved, making the whole Wucheng brightly lit, quite dreamy.
Chen Xun's eyes became a little blurry, looking at the brightly lit night sky for a long time, as if he had returned to the past, everything seemed to be the same, and everything seemed to have changed too much, and it was extremely strange.
He came to the mortal world this time, not for enlightenment, and then sighing about the truth of heaven and earth. He was already in the immortal realm, so there was no need to add unnecessary details.
This time he just wanted to take Xiao Wuhen to walk around in his own territory, so he came, mainly because he was bored, and he was never eager for immortality.
At this time, Xiao Wuhen was swallowing his saliva while helping to collect money. He was quite busy. Uncle Frog said that eating meat was not good for his health, so he could only enjoy the sight.
Chen Xun looked calm and easy-going, which was incompatible with the temperament of the surrounding vendors. Instead, he attracted many curious people, and the business was booming.
This made Chen Xun a little bit amused. Now he was not so eager to make spirit stones. He just followed his heart. If he wanted to collect debts, he probably couldn't collect them all.
But Xiao Wuhen was so happy that he almost cried. He really felt what it meant to get rich... Dad was really amazing!
Three hours later, the population was sparse and the night was deep.
Xiao Wuhen was there with a bucket, wiping the oven and pots and pans, sweating like rain, and finally realized how difficult it was to make spirit stones. This was much harder than sitting and selling wood carvings.
He never had a moment to rest and kept running.
Chen Xun smiled slightly: "Son, take a break, combine work and rest."
"Dad, wipe your sweat!" Xiao Wuhen came panting, mainly because of excitement and excitement. He handed a piece of dirty cloth to Chen Xun.
Chen Xun didn't say anything, picked up the cloth and wiped it on his face, without any care.
Xiao Wuhen smiled foolishly on the side: "Dad, your face is all rubbed!"
"Good boy, dare to laugh at your dad, ask for a beating!" Chen Xun reached out with a big hand and hit Xiao Wuhen directly on the butt.
"Wow!! Dad, I was wrong!!!" Qian Wuhen screamed, and was beaten and ran around, but he still couldn't escape the clutches of his father and was pressed to the ground and beaten.
Chen Xun laughed loudly, and the more he beat, the more comfortable he became. When he taught his third sister before, he had to pay attention to some distance and not violate the moral code, but boys don't have such cares, and there is no need to be taboo.
】
To be honest, he still prefers to teach boys, which is very convenient.
After an incense stick, Xiao Wuhen wilted, pouted his mouth, and muttered something.
However, Chen Xun did not wipe off the charcoal marks on his face. He seemed to be indifferent and began to pack up his things.
Half an hour later.
Chen Xun and Xiao Wuhen sat on the ground to rest, quietly looking at the vast starry sky.
"Dad..." Xiao Wuhen murmured, "I like to look at the stars the most, but now there is no sound of waterfalls, and it is a little quiet. I am not used to it."
"Yeah." Chen Xun responded, holding Xiao Wuhen's shoulders with one hand, "Do whatever you like, as long as it does not harm the interests of others, it is right."
"Hehe." Xiao Wuhen smiled foolishly again, "Dad, can I ask a question, please don't hit me."
"Okay, ask."
"That is... Yeah, that is..." Xiao Wuhen's eyes drooped, his eyes rolled wildly, and he spoke hesitantly.
"Ask quickly." Chen Xun sneered, "Don't be so coy and pretentious, man. Your father hates this the most. Do you want to be beaten?"
"Hey, father, I'm telling you!" Xiao Wuhen's back was covered in cold sweat, and he spoke so fast, "Where is my mother?"
After he finished speaking, his head was almost buried in his knees. He had been hiding this question for a long time since he entered the country of Qian. He had wanted to ask his father a long time ago. He saw other children asking the same question.
After these words came out, the surroundings became much quieter, and the atmosphere blended with the deep night.
Chen Xun's face seemed to be touched, and became a little gentler: "She left and turned into the starry sky in the sky, watching you all the time."
"Dad, then my mother won't come back?" Xiao Wuhen raised his head slightly and blinked.
"Yes." Chen Xun raised his arm and touched his little head, "We can see her after the traces of us in this world disappear. She is waiting for us in that world."
"Dad, I don't understand." Xiao Wuhen pursed his lips and looked at Chen Xun and whispered, "Is mom dead?"
"...Yeah." Chen Xun nodded, not hiding anything.
Xiao Wuhen's mood was depressed a lot in an instant, but he comforted Chen Xun: "Dad, although mom is gone, you still have me, I will always be with you."
"Haha, good boy." Hearing this, the surprise in Chen Xun's eyes flashed, and he chuckled, "Dad will always be with you, we have so many relatives, what are you afraid of."
"Hehe~~" Xiao Wuhen didn't worry about his mother. It might be that he was loved by thousands of people in the environment he lived in in the past, and he didn't worry about gains and losses as imagined.
The next day.
The two wandered again. They went to many places, watched the city's acrobatics, watched operas, went to temple fairs, and ate many local specialties.
Xiao Wuhen rode on Chen Xun's shoulders, exclaiming constantly. The world below the mountain was really wonderful.
However, Chen Xun was very calm and peaceful. He had seen these scenes before, and he was not surprised. His mentality was very calm.
Just watching the people around him living and working in peace and contentment made him feel very comforted and had a sense of accomplishment.
He took Xiao Wuhen and shuttled through this bustling city, but he couldn't help but think of a young man who didn't look very smart back then.
The young man thought they were immortals, but he and Lao Niu disagreed. They believed that immortals were the existence of saving the suffering and saving the world, and he was just a small cultivator.
Now that he has become an immortal, he has truly done it, blessing a small area of mortal peace.
