Chapter 261 On the Great Way, Reversible Life and Death

The tip of the nose is filled with the aroma of rice, mixed with the smell of oily smoke.

This was also a smell that Li Xuanwei had never smelled before.

Everything is so strange.

The sister-in-law standing by the bed smiled softly at her, a spoonful of sweet and soft glutinous rice porridge was blown cold and brought it to her mouth. After eating rice porridge, the whole person feels warmer.

The sister-in-law smiled heartily.

"Can you eat by yourself? I'll get you some food."

That day was the first time in Li Xuanwei's life that he ate hot meals just out of the pan, three bowls of rice porridge, and a plate of roasted chicken with mushrooms, which became an indelible taste in Li Xuanwei's memory forever.

It was on that day that Li Xuanwei made his first friend in his life.

He is the son of his sister-in-law, one year older than Li Xuanwei, and he is at the most mischievous time.

When dealing with Li Xuanwei, he would not ridicule or run away like other children. He would play tricks on Li Xuanwei and give her all the wild strawberries he picked from the mountains.

Since then, as long as the master is not around, Li Xuanwei will go down the mountain to find his sister-in-law.

The woman who lives with her son also likes this quiet and beautiful little girl very much. No matter what other people say, the sister-in-law treats Li Xuanwei like an ordinary little girl, taking her up the mountain to cut firewood, and taking her to Going to the market in the town, and using the money from selling tea to buy candies and pastries for the two children.

Occasionally, the sister-in-law would ask Li Xuanwei in a joking tone, stop being a little Taoist priest, and be her little girl.

Because of this matter, the little girl seriously thought about it all day, and the next day she explained to her sister-in-law very seriously that she was the only one with the master, and she could not be a little girl for the sister-in-law, but had to be a master next to the master all the time. little apprentice.

The sister-in-law that day smiled happily, and directly said that she should be her daughter-in-law.

Little children don't know what a daughter-in-law is. They only know that they can live with their sister-in-law and be the master's apprentice, so they happily agreed.

On that day, the little boy took her to pick wild flowers on the mountain.

More than ten years have passed, Li Xuanwei can still clearly remember that the blue sea of ​​flowers all over the mountains is the most beautiful scenery in Qingyuan Mountain.

Living on the mountain for so long, it was the first time for her to run like an ordinary child in the middle of the sea of ​​flowers, chasing the butterfly with wide wings and running until she got tired and stopped. The boy following him disappeared.

There were cries and cries in my ears.

Shouting Li Xuanwei's name.

The little girl chased the direction of the sound and ran forward frantically, but her legs were extremely sore at this moment, but she stumbled at this moment. When she got up again and ran to the end of the sea of ​​flowers, she saw When she arrived at the green grass stained with glaring bright red blood, she saw the black figure flashing past in the distance, accompanied by the boy's last scream.

"Xiao Wei——!"

The voice was getting farther and farther away, like a hook piercing Li Xuanwei's heart, running forward non-stop.

Li Xuanwei couldn't remember how many times she fell, and she couldn't remember whether she was crying or not. She could only think of that day when her eyes were full of big patches of red, and that passing black shadow holding her in her mouth. Her best friend disappeared from her eyes into the bottomless jungle.

Rapid breathing, frantically beating heart, trembling hands.

Li Xuanwei stood on the edge of the cliff and called the boy's name over and over again.

Master led the villagers to search in the mountains.

But Qingyuan Mountain is really too big, no matter how loud their voices are, they will be swallowed by the dense forest.

Finally, someone found the boy's bloody shoe.

One after another, the boy's shirt, pants, and hair were all found.

Everyone knew that he was bound to die.

Li Xuanwei also knew.

Of course my sister-in-law also knows.

She knelt on the ground in despair, weeping loudly, cursing the injustice of fate.

Even though she was so sad, she didn't blame Li Xuanwei at all.

Even if the boy went up the mountain that day to take Li Xuanwei to see the sea of ​​flowers, even if it was because Li Xuanwei ran too far that day and didn't hear the boy's cry for help.

But she still hugged Li Xuanwei and wept.

Since then, the sister-in-law lost her son, and Li Xuanwei lost her only friend.

There are too many people who died on the mountain. After all, not only humans live in this mountain, but also countless beasts.

The aura in Qingyuan Mountain is rich, not only suitable for human cultivation, but also suitable for animal cultivation.

Monsters are beasts, and beasts prey on the weak and the strong. They have no ethics and morality, no compassion and care, and some only want a stomach that can never be filled and have offspring to feed.

The master said that if you encounter a demon, you must kill it, because the demon harms all living beings.

Li Xuanwei never questioned this sentence, and even took it as a guideline.

She killed countless demons in Qingyuan Mountain.

The more she killed, the deeper the chasm in her heart became.

Because as the murders deepened, the guilt and pain she could feel increased rather than decreased, and she knew that no matter how much she killed, the dead would never come back.

At the age of high school, my sister-in-law died of illness.

Burials are popular among mountain people, and the mourners are men, women and children from all over the village.

It was the master who held the ceremony. He waved the soul-calling flag and inserted it among the tombs at the foot of the mountain. The young men dug a deep pit. Amidst bursts of not-so-sad cries, Li Xuanwei heard the wind blowing. The sound of the jungle, the sound of water flowing through the river bed, the sound of birds scratching the leaves and the sound of insects rolling in the soil.

It was also on that day that she broke through the first realm of cultivation, knowing people.

For three days and three nights, Li Xuanwei stayed in front of his sister-in-law's grave without eating or drinking.

In the realm of knowing people, Li Xuanwei has many things in his mind that he didn't have before. For example, on the great way, he is free from the constraints of life and death, possesses boundless magic power, and can reverse life and death.

Since then, the word "Da Dao" has become something more important than life to Li Xuanwei.

She asked Master, what is the Dao.

Master said that the Dao is nothingness, it cannot be said, it can only be realized.

Up to now, she has touched the threshold from ignorance to now, and Li Xuanwei knows that she is very close to the Dao.

She was only a little bit close, maybe it was just a finishing touch, maybe it was just within easy reach.

In fact, she didn't need to pay too much attention to Li Ya's origin, after all, her appearance also interrupted her thoughts and reluctance.

She didn't know why Master wanted to stop her from pursuing the Dao, all she could do now was to keep going.

As for everything that I can't think clearly now, maybe after she breaks through, everything will become clear.
