Chapter 283 Ye Shanhu Sacrifices Herself
For Xu Changshou, five hundred first-grade talismans could be painted in one day.
But he didn't plan to finish painting in one day, it would be too tiring.
In the evening, Xu Changshou drew three hundred talismans and then began to rest.
唳——
Suddenly, Xiao Hei carried Ye Hualou and landed in the yard.
It was a four thousand mile round trip to Pingyangfang City, and at Xiao Hei's speed, he could turn back in half a day. Xu Changshou was not surprised to be able to come back so quickly.
"Have you bought all the medicinal materials?" Xu Changshou asked casually.
Ye Coral nodded and said with a smile: "There are a lot of nine auxiliary elixirs. I bought two copies of them all."
"Thank you."
Xu Changshou clasped his fists slightly and did not mention the money.
The total of these nine kinds of elixirs would not cost a hundred spiritual stones. Even if he gave them, Ye Hualou would not take them.
Anyway, she agreed to draw the magic talisman for Ye Hualou for one more year, so she wouldn't suffer any loss.
"Junior Sister Ye, when are you going to start refining the elixir? Tonight?" Xu Changshou asked.
"no."
Ye Coral shook his head: "I'm tired after running all day today. I have to rest at night to recharge my batteries and start refining the elixir early tomorrow morning."
Xu Changshou scratched his head: "Then tonight..."
Ye Coral blinked: "I will definitely rest at your place tonight. I don't want to run back and forth, it will be too troublesome."
Xu Changshou smiled bitterly: "Junior sister Ye, this is not good."
Ye Coral frowned: "What are you afraid of? It's not like I've never slept here before. Senior Brother Xu, are you still afraid that I'll eat you?"
"Um...Okay, you sleep on the bed, and I'll meditate in the living room."
"Um!"
…
late at night.
Xu Changshou sat cross-legged on the futon in the living room, practicing with concentration.
Squeak——
Suddenly, the bedroom door opened, and Ye Hualou tiptoed towards Xu Changshou.
Xu Changshou's eyelashes twitched, and he felt panicked, but he didn't dare to move.
Ye Coral sat down directly, hugged Xu Changshou from behind, and pressed his face against Xu Changshou's back.
"Junior sister Ye, you..."
"Senior Brother Xu, tell me, how wonderful it would be if we all failed to build the foundation."
Ye Coral's gentle voice interrupted Xu Changshou's words.
"this……"
Xu Changshou was stunned. He never expected that Ye Hualou would have such an idea.
He understood what Ye Coral meant. They had made an agreement at the beginning that if they could not build the foundation, then they would become Taoist couples when they were fifty years old.
Later, Xu Changshou established the foundation, and Ye Coral also established the foundation.
The agreement between them was over.
All this time, Ye Hualou didn't show much emotion in front of him.
This sudden appearance today made Xu Changshou a little unable to resist.
"Junior sister Ye, don't be impulsive. The love between children is just a small way. I am a poor man who only yearns for the big road and has no other thoughts..."
"Senior Brother Xu."
Ye Hualou suddenly turned to the front of Xu Changshou and stared at him with a pair of big watery eyes:
"If you can't be with the person you love, what's the point of living forever?"
"Junior Sister Ye, I don't agree with what you say. If you can't achieve greatness, your life will be mediocre. How is it any different from an ant or a fly?"
Xu Changshou also looked into Ye Coral's eyes and said with a cautious expression.
He admitted that he had a crush on Ye Coral, but what he yearned for in his heart was the path to immortality.
Hearing this, a hint of gloom flashed in Ye Hualou's eyes: "Senior Brother Xu, do you know how high the sky is and how far the road is? What if the road you long for is unattainable?"
"I don't know. One step at a time, one step at a time. I want to get a glimpse of the great road. I would rather die without regrets." Xu Changshou said word by word.
"Alas~ Senior Brother Xu, you really have a heart of stone."
Ye Hualou sighed quietly, and a tear slipped down his face.
Although she was resentful, she secretly admired Xu Changshou's determination in Taoism.
The road to immortality is like hundreds of millions of people crossing a single-plank bridge, and it is a single-plank bridge full of thorns.
Perhaps, only people like Xu Changshou with a firm Taoist heart can achieve Taoism.
Xu Changshou stretched out his thumb and wiped away Ye Hualou's tears.
"Junior sister Ye, I understand your intentions. I promise you that if I, Xu Changshou, cannot condense the elixir in my hundredth year, I will become a Taoist companion with you."
"real?"
Ye Hualou raised his eyes, his eyes showing joy at first, and then worry.
Another agreement.
Do you want to wait for him for a hundred years?
No, what should I do if this guy really succeeds in forming an elixir? I'm not sure about forming an elixir.
"No, Senior Brother Xu, I don't want a hundred years, I only seize the day."
After saying this, Ye Hualou suddenly threw himself into Xu Changshou's arms.
Holding Ye Coral's soft body, Xu Changshou was dumbfounded.
"Senior Brother Xu, I know that you are devoted to the Tao. If you cannot form an elixir, I will definitely become a Taoist partner with you. But if you can form an elixir, I will not wait a hundred years in vain."
"Um...Junior Sister Ye, I didn't think about it that much."
"Senior Brother Xu, I don't want to wait any longer. I'm almost forty years old. If a woman can't form a pill, she still has several forty years to wait."
"But……"
"I have no objection to you pursuing the great road, but I don't want to leave any regrets, Senior Brother Xu, okay?"
After saying this, Ye Coral looked at Xu Changshou with watery eyes.
Fuck grandma's avenue.
Xu Changshou couldn't help it anymore, picked up Ye Hualou and strode into the bedroom.
The candlelight goes out.
In the dark night, the beauty of spring is boundless.
In the early morning, Xu Changshou opened his eyes and saw bright red blood.
Ye Shanhu put away the bed sheet in a panic, and then quickly got dressed.
She washed up, then cleaned Xu Changshou's small courtyard inside and out, and made some desserts for Xu Changshou, like a virtuous little wife.
The two sat at the dining table, but they were speechless.
After a long time, Xu Changshou spoke: "Junior Sister Ye, I..."
"Junior Brother Xu, don't worry, I won't let you bother me, I will wait for you until you are a hundred years old, you said, if you don't form a pill in a hundred years, we will become Taoist couples."
"Uh?"
Xu Changshou scratched his head: "Can't you just hope for me, how do you know that I can't form a pill?"
Ye Shanhu was surprised: "Are you sure you can form a pill?"
Xu Changshou nodded: "A little sure."
Ye Shanhu's beautiful eyes showed a thoughtful look: If he really forms a pill, what should I do, a hundred years of waiting is not in vain.
"Brother Xu, if I wait until you are a hundred years old and you have formed a golden elixir, wouldn't I be at a loss?"
"What do you have to lose? You once possessed a golden elixir master, so you should have gained something." Xu Changshou teased.
"I don't care."
Ye Shanhu pouted: "When you become a golden elixir master, you must take me as your concubine."
"Okay, I promise you."
"I'm going to make the elixir."
After waiting for Xu Changshou's promise, Ye Shanhu went to the house happily.
In the next two days, Ye Shanhu made the elixir and Xu Changshou drew talismans.
Ye Shanhu was very sensible and knew that Xu Changshou was devoted to practicing Taoism, so she didn't pester Xu Changshou like a little woman.
The two of them were still the same as before, still calling each other senior brother and junior sister.
It's just that there was more intimacy and emotion than before.
