Chapter 141 I Got the Wrong Person
Chen Xun suddenly felt an extremely strong throbbing in his heart. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the corner of the street.
It was a beautiful figure, a very familiar figure... She is now much more mature, and the aura of a superior person can't help but radiate.
The flowers in the east of the city have bloomed, and her figure is getting closer and closer.
Chen Xun slowly stood up and smiled: "Senior, are you here to buy talismans?"
The woman looked around, looked at Chen Xun's face for a long time, and whispered: "Yes."
"Please."
"Okay."
The woman's face was calm. She entered the store and looked at the various talismans on the shelf. She carefully checked them one by one, fearing that she would miss something.
"Have you been running a store here all these years?"
"Haha, to be honest with you, my ancestors opened a store in the mortal world, and this craft can be said to be inherited from my ancestors."
"Blacksmith shop?"
"...Yes."
Chen Xun was still calm, but the two were quite far away.
"However, I have never seen such a talisman. It seems to be similar to ordinary talismans, but the inside is a little different."
"Haha, senior, please tell me..."
"It's okay, it's good."
The woman turned around and interrupted Chen Xun's words, "I once had an old friend who looked a bit like you, boss."
"But I don't remember how many years it has been, a hundred years? Two hundred years? Maybe four hundred years?"
The woman thought seriously and suddenly smiled, "It's been too long, I can't remember..."
"Is there such a thing?"
Chen Xun raised his eyebrows, "That's really a blessing for the younger generation."
The woman's face was delicate and beautiful. She stood there quietly and elegantly, but with a sad smile: "Have you been doing well these years?"
"It's good."
"Moo?!!!"
Suddenly, a cow's cry came from the backyard. Its eyes were huge, and its pupils kept trembling, and it was directly shocked on the spot.
The woman also saw the big black cow, and her smile deepened: "Boss, in addition to the craftsmanship, is this black cow also an heirloom of your family?"
"Yes." Chen Xun said decisively without any hesitation.
"Can I sit down?"
"Senior, please come."
Chen Xun quickly tidied up the table and chairs and stood aside, seeming a little overwhelmed.
"Boss, you sit down too." The woman stretched out a slender hand, her face full of peace.
"Okay."
A hint of complexity flashed across Chen Xun's eyes, and he still sat opposite her.
The woman didn't speak, her eyes seemed to be sizing up Chen Xun, she opened her thin lips: "My name is Liu Yuan."
Chen Xun's heart was shocked, his breathing could not help but quicken, his face full of smiles: "So it's Senior Liu."
"It seems that I really recognized the wrong person."
Liu Yuan seemed to be relieved, "It's been too long, even the appearance of the old friend is a little unclear."
"Senior, you are joking, noble people always forget things."
Chen Xun looked like a commoner, and there was even a trace of regret in his eyes, "It is a blessing for cultivators like us to be able to establish a relationship with you."
"Okay, since you said so, then I will give you a chance."
Liu Yuan quickly responded, as if afraid that Chen Xun would regret it, and took out a token from the storage ring, on which was engraved 'Wuyun Sect'.
Chen Xun's pupils shrank. Why did this token feel familiar...
"This token was taken back from the sect's main hall by a friend of mine who has passed away. He asked me to leave it to 'his' descendants."
Liu Yuan waved her hand lightly, and the token appeared directly in front of Chen Xun. "And that person looks similar to the boss. He must be his descendant."
"Excuse me, senior, who is that deceased... friend?"
"His name is Ji Kun."
Liu Yuan said in a deep voice, his eyes never leaving Chen Xun.
The latter's fingers trembled slightly, still smiling: "So you are the senior of Wuyun Sect, I have heard of you for a long time."
"If you are interested, you can come directly to Wuyun Sect and join the sect as an elder."
"Okay, okay."
Chen Xun nodded quickly and carefully put away the token, "Thank you, senior."
He had a flattering smile on his face, but his heart seemed to sink into the bottomless abyss. He naturally knew how hard it was for the casual cultivators from Jiuxing Valley and how difficult it was to ascend to immortality.
If he really had a descendant, the token left by Senior Brother Ji might change the life of the descendant...
Liu Yuan smiled and didn't even ask Chen Xun's name.
"In fact, Junior Brother Ji left some words before he left."
"Senior, this is inappropriate."
Chen Xun's expression finally changed a little, "I am not your old friend, and I don't want to be anyone's shadow."
"He said that when he went to Nandou Mountain, two powerful people saved him, and he didn't know who they were."
Liu Yuan talked to himself, "But he gave the ancient book of inheritance to a close friend, and he believed that this ancient book in his hands..."
"It will definitely go further than in his own hands, and he hopes that the old friend will be able to do it. People can take it to see the legendary future world."
"Hehe... Hehe."
Chen Xun kept laughing, "Senior, this has nothing to do with me."
"I don't have much time left, and I can't find his descendants. I can only put my thoughts on you."
Liu Yuan showed a cold smile, "Boss, I hope you don't mind."
Chen Xun's fingers trembled again, and he was silent. He felt that he had already let it go...
In the backyard, the big black bull's pupils were still trembling. It kept snorting and quietly retreated step by step.
A cold wind blew outside the store, and the two crane trees at the door kept dropping green leaves. It was clearly spring, but it was accompanied by an indescribable bleakness.
"Okay, I see."
Chen Xun lowered his head and smiled, "It's the junior who is ignorant."
"Then I won't bother the boss, and I won't come again in the future."
Liu Yuan stood up, her eyes still as calm as ever, "In a few words, the boss is indeed not the old friend, I recognized the wrong person."
"Senior, take care."
"Please see me off."
"Okay."
Chen Xun looked outward, led the way, and stood in front of the rocking chair and bowed.
Liu Yuan's eyes suddenly became gentle, and she looked at Chen Xun carefully, then looked at the backyard, and turned away.
Suddenly, the familiar yet strange figure was far away.
Chen Xun sat weakly on the chair, his hands crossed, and the token of the Five Elements Sect was pressed tightly in his palm.
His deep eyes looked north, and his eyes had no focus, as if extending infinitely.
Liu Yuan walked slowly toward the east, and the two of them never looked at each other again, like two skies that could never intersect again.
She had walked very far, and could no longer see the figure sitting in front of the store.
The streets were still crowded with people, and the monks coming and going laughed constantly.
Liu Yuan finally couldn't hold it anymore, and her eyes were filled with mist: "Chen Xun... Senior Brother, Hei Niu, how could I not know it was you."
"It's really good to see you alive..."
Liu Yuan looked up at the sky, as if the pressure of hundreds of years was released at this moment, "Senior Brother Chen Xun, you are really not an ordinary monk..."
She couldn't help but think of that day, the figure under the maple tree, his true cultivation might have exceeded her cognition.
But Liu Yuan didn't blame him at all, this legendary figure, everything he did had his reasons.
It was a great blessing to meet someone like Senior Brother Chen Xun.
