Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 392 The warmth given by his father illuminates his path to immortality

Daheishan, at the foot of the mountain.

A group of mourners just left crying.

A tomb made of bluestones looked desolate.

Suddenly, a golden light fell, and a young Taoist priest appeared in front of the grave.

The person who came was none other than Chen Yun. Although he returned to Dahei Mountain with Yin Chai, he did not go back to pay his last respects. Instead, he hid in the dark and watched the funeral and burial process.

Now that he has severed his ties with the secular family, he has never thought about getting involved again.

It's just that the deceased is the most important. Chen Yun is still a human being and has feelings. He can't be indifferent to the death of his father who gave birth to him for sixteen years.

Therefore, after the burial was completed and everyone had left, he appeared in front of the tomb to worship.

Without saying a word, Chen Yun put away the rice, wine, roast chicken, steamed fish, incense candles, fruits and other sacrifices, and then took out some paper money from the Hu Tian Shu space and lit it.

Immediately, he let out a long sigh, knelt down in the mud with a thump, and kowtowed four times.

In the ancient concept of ghosts and gods, there is a saying called Shen San Gui Si, which means that bowing three times is worshiping gods, and bowing four times is worshiping ghosts.

Now that his father has passed away, he naturally has to "worship four" according to the rules.

After doing all this, Chen Yun did not leave here immediately. Instead, he fell to the ground and stared at the new tomb in front of him in a daze.

To be honest, if his father was still alive and wanted to see him before leaving, Chen Yun might come.

Unfortunately, the other party has passed away.

The most important thing is that the other party's death happened to be the day when he was attacking Xingxiu Sea.

Chen Yun really wanted to ask the other party why he had to sell himself instead of his younger brothers and sisters.

Logically speaking, I was sixteen years old at the time. Although I ate more than my younger brothers and sisters, I was already a labor force and had no reason to sell.

This is the puzzle that Chen Yun has harbored in his heart for decades, and it is the reason why he cannot let go.

"Besides, I am the eldest son." Chen Yun looked at the tombstone and sighed: "Have you never thought that one day you would like me to die for you?"

The tombstone certainly didn't answer his question.

Waves of breeze blew by, making Chen Yun feel even more depressed.

The confusion about why he sold himself burned in his heart.

It seems that if he cannot figure out the specific reason, he will not be able to live in peace for the rest of his life.

Chen Yun had mixed feelings. He wanted to find his father's soul in the underworld and ask for the specific reason, but he also didn't want to face his father again for fear of a life-or-death separation.

Suddenly, a burst of clear light illuminated behind him.

An old man holding a dragon-headed crutch appeared in front of him.

He sat directly on the floor and asked: "Mr. Chen, your father was a charitable man who loved charity, why don't you want to die for him?"

Chen Yun looked sideways and asked: "The Landlord of Daheishan?"

The old man smiled and nodded: "Exactly, my surname is Chen. I once lived in this land. I did many good deeds during my lifetime. After my death, I was lucky enough to be favored by the underworld. I accumulated good deeds step by step from the underworld, and finally became a successful person." land.”

Chen Yun quickly stood up, bowed and saluted, "I've seen the Earth God."

"You're welcome. Speaking of which, you can be regarded as my junior." The Earth God stretched out his hand and pressed it, "Sit down and let's talk."

Chen Yun responded and sat down.

Tu TuGong looked back with reminiscence in his eyes: "Actually, I have a little friendship with your father. Since you gave some gold and the family's situation improved, he also funded the old man to renovate Tu Tu Temple and reshape the statue of the god. Therefore, I am very grateful in my heart and always thinking about his kindness.”

Chen Yun listened quietly to the Tu Tu Gong's complaint.

The Earth God slowly said: "Later your brother got married and had a son, and your mother went to help take care of the child. Your father refused to leave here for some reasons. I saw that he didn't even have anyone to talk to on weekdays. He was very depressed, so Occasionally, he would become an old man of the same age and sit with him in the village to bask in the sun and chat. "

The lonely old man is indeed depressed.

Chen Yun could imagine how boring and lonely it must be for the mother to take care of the children for her brother and the father to stay at home alone.

He asked with some confusion: "Since my brother has become an official, why can't dad go and enjoy the happiness and happiness and insist on staying in the small mountain village?"

"I also asked him the reason, but he never thought of telling him at first." Tu Tu Gong looked back at the past, "About three years ago, I finally knew why he refused to leave. Your father was seriously ill at that time. So when your brother came back, he insisted on taking him away from the small mountain village, but your father refused to leave at any cost, and even said that if he had to force him to leave, he would hang himself immediately. " Hearing this, Chen Yun seemed to have a premonition of something. .

Sure enough, the landowner sighed and said: "Your brother asked him why he refused to leave. Your father said at that time that if he leaves here, you will not be able to find your home when you come back."

If dad leaves here, will I not be able to find my home when I come back?
Hearing these words, Chen Yun didn't know why his heart trembled, and he felt an urge to cry.

The landowner was still talking nonchalantly, "Later, your brother found a famous doctor to treat him, and finally saved his life for the time being. Since then, maybe he had a premonition that his time was running out. Every time he chatted with me, There are more things to talk about than before.”

Chen Yun asked with concern: "What did he tell you?"

"It's nothing more than some family affairs and some regrettable things." Digong said in a serious tone, "There is one thing that he feels particularly regretful but proud of. In the past three years, I have heard about it hundreds of times. "

Chen Yun asked: "What is it that he feels particularly regretful about but is also very proud of?"

The landowner looked at him and said, "Your father said that selling you was the most regretful thing in his life, and at the same time, it was also the most proud thing."

It is understandable to regret. After all, unless you are a hard-hearted and indifferent person, you will definitely regret or regret selling your son.

But Chen Yun still couldn't understand this pride.

He frowned and said, "Proud?"

Tu Tu Gong seemed to understand what Chen Yun was thinking, and nodded: "Yes, your father said that when you were very young, you have been clamoring to go to the city to live, but your family did not have the ability, so you have been allowed to stay. Sitting in a small mountain village, unable to display your talents, he said that when you were very young, you showed extremely high arithmetic skills. If your family had some money, he would definitely send you to a private school. Therefore, Every time he thinks about this, he feels very uncomfortable.”

Scenes from the past emerged, and Chen Yun became increasingly sad.

The land is fair: "It happened that one time he went to the city to work and met Huang San, who was somewhat related to your family. The two chatted and Huang San said that if you can really show enough arithmetic skills, he would be willing to take you in. Mr. Accountant, your father knew that you yearned for life in the city, and he was attracted by it at that time. However, he also knew your temperament. You were definitely not willing to ask you to abandon your family and enjoy happiness alone. Therefore, he discussed with Huang San. Fan, I decided to put on a show in front of you, so that you can stop thinking about home and enjoy yourself with Huang San. "

Hearing this, Chen Yun was shocked and looked over in disbelief, "You mean, when my father and Mr. Huang discussed selling me, they did it deliberately to show me?"

The landlord did not answer the question directly, but asked instead, "What do you think? They met in the city a long time ago, why did they have to negotiate the price at the doorstep?"

Yup!

We had already met in the city. Why did they start negotiating the price right at the doorstep of my house when I just woke up?

Chen Yun had been blinded by "hatred" in the past and had never thought about it. Now when he heard the mention of it by the landowner, he realized that his father had sold him not because his family was too poor to cook or eat. Instead, he paved the way for himself and settled in the city!

Tu TuGong silently added, "Originally, your father and Huang San were talking about giving you a monthly allowance. They didn't ask for silver coins. It's just that as a distant relative, Huang Sanye took pity on your family's situation, so he really gave you a few dollars." Two pieces of silver. Your father was originally worried that you would have a hard time in the city, so he went all the way to Xigou City to find someone to give you the money. Who would have thought that you would leap over the dragon gate and enter the missionary temple to work? And later he became a disciple of Zhengyangzi. After your father learned this, he was extremely happy. It's a pity that he has been looking forward to you and thinking about you for his whole life, but in the end he only met you once by accident. Not yet. Recognize it.”

At this moment, the sadness in Chen Yun's heart could no longer be suppressed.

He never thought that his father would secretly do so many things for himself.

Chen Yun always thought that he was an abandoned son who was "abandoned" by his family.

Who would have thought that he was the lucky one who was favored by his father the most.

My father tried every means to get himself to the city.

Thanks to myself for decades, I still thought that the other party was the cruelest to me.

I don't know why, for a person like Chen Yun, tears fell from his eyes one after another as he thought about it.

Decades of independence and strength.

At this moment, completely shattered.

There was only tenderness and regret in his heart.

The warmth given by his father illuminated his path to immortality.

But in the past few decades, I had known nothing about it, and had never even come back to visit him. The only time I pretended to ask for a drink of water was as a passerby.

The thing that makes Chen Yun regret the most is that if he had learned that his father was critically ill a while ago, he might have come back to visit him.

But at that time, I was in a hurry to go to Xingxiu Poster to see Qiu Xuehen, and missed the opportunity to see my father for the last time.

Chen Yun had a feeling of sadness flowing backwards, flooding into a river in his heart.

At this moment, he desperately wished that he could see his father again.

It's just that the yin and yang are separated, and it seems unrealistic for me to want to see my father again.

Am I going to spend my whole life in such regret?
Do not!
I must see him!

Chen Yun suddenly made up his mind, stood up, and wanted to see his father no matter what!
