Chapter 878: Stars in the sky, beloved on earth
After finishing the food, the two smiled at each other, both in a good mood. But Si Nian's heart darkened immediately. Thinking of such a happy day, he had to leave Li Changxiao.
She was grateful for her master's kindness. But she felt guilty and sorry for Li Changxiao. From her understanding of Li Changxiao, once he was gone, he could not be brought back. Li Changxiao might not hate her and did not care about the past. But there was always a slight difference between the before and the after.
If she had never left, the two of them would not be Taoist companions, but husband and wife. The days of such infinite joy and harmony would last as long as they wanted. Thinking in this way, there is nothing good about the Tao. No matter how good it is...it is not as good as the person in front of me.
What is the purpose of asking for this?
It's a pity that it's hard to have both. If she hadn't left, how could she know her true heart. Besides...if Li Changxiao wasn't special, and his spiritual energy hadn't dried up, in the future Si Nian would have achieved success in cultivation, knew his true heart, and returned to Panlong Sect, but in the end he would only feel disappointed.
Think of this.
Si Nian felt that the current situation was neither the best nor the worst, but just right. Li Changxiao was handsome, and before and after his spiritual energy was exhausted, he inevitably met a few confidantes. But it seemed that Si Nian was the only one who had ever been as close as a Taoist partner.
Each of them had their own feelings. But they both tacitly agreed not to go any further. After they finished their meal, they washed the dishes together. It was already dark outside, with stars shining brightly. The moon's limelight was largely taken away.
Si Nian was searching for a star in the sky. A lavender star said, "Look! That's the Big Carrot Star, mine." It turned out that Si Nian was extremely talented, and the Fuyao Holy Land specially awarded her seven stars.
She was naturally smart. Others knew that stars were hard to come by, so they always gave them some overbearing, Taoist, and appropriate names. But she wanted to keep it simple. So there were many strange names, such as Big Radish Star, Painted Girl Star, etc. She suddenly looked melancholy, pointed to a very bright star in the sky that emitted a pale white halo, and said, "This is the Blazing White Star, the star of my master."
Li Changxiao looked up and knew it for the first time. He looked at the star and thought it was really similar to Zhao Qing. Straight and bright. This star was very close to the moon. At first glance, it seemed to have rolled up its sleeves and wanted to fight with the moon.
Si Nian complained, "My Jiligulu Star and Hualahua Star disappeared a few days ago. I don't know who picked them. Anyone who can still pick stars must be a powerful person. I can't beat him. I can only curse him... He has bad luck every day. "
Li Changxiao was stunned: "Why are the stars gone for no reason?" Si Nian said: "Humph, who else could it be? A fight between two great monks!" Li Changxiao suddenly panicked. A few days ago, when he fought with Mu Chengfeng, he had grabbed a lot of stars and threw them at Mu Chengfeng.
Recently, there was only this great battle between great monks in the sky above Lingtian. So... the real culprit who stole the star is probably beside Si Nian. Si Nian became more and more angry as he spoke. He put his hands on his waist, puffed his face, and cursed the star thief fiercely. Li Changxiao secretly wiped the cold sweat and tried to change the subject several times. But Si Nian was full of resentment and always pulled it back unconsciously.
Li Changxiao was cursed in person, but he dared not say a word. Sometimes he defended the "thief", but his words were weak. He was not even a fraction as angry as Si Nian.
……
In a blink of an eye, Li Changxiao had lived in the wooden house for more than a month. The two of them seemed to have returned to the past. In fact, Si Nian had become much colder since following Zhao Qing, and was not as lively as before.
I deliberately chose a remote and quiet place to live because I don't like to interact with people. Every day I go up the mountain to collect herbs and go down the mountain to buy herbs. The days go by, as if I am waiting but not waiting.
After meeting Li Changxiao again, his nature became more lively and pleasant. This month, the two of them went up the mountain to collect herbs. If they were lucky, they would pick up some rabbits and wild boars along the way and bring them back home.
The two of them could not finish eating too much meat, so they took the leftovers to the market to sell. The money they earned could be used to buy new furniture and clothes. If they came across some pleasing ornaments, they would have some extra money to buy them.
Life is quite comfortable. Si Nian praised Li Changxiao's skill in roasting rabbit, which is not rusty at all compared with the past. The skin is crispy and crispy, and the inside is tender and juicy. Si Nian likes to eat Li Changxiao's roasted rabbit the most. Fuyao's rabbit meat has a light smell of mutton, which is very difficult to remove. Others' rabbit meat is not delicious. But Li Changxiao's rabbit meat is unique.
Si Nian had wanted to ask for advice for a long time. But Li Changxiao had always refused to teach him. He once joked, "If I teach you, you won't come to me again in the future." At that time, Si Nian was so angry that he stamped his feet and cursed Li Changxiao as a cunning boy, a big slippery head, and a stinky bastard.
This kind of scolding, which sounded like a spoiled child or a playful one, naturally made Li Changxiao laugh out loud, enjoying it. But now... as long as Si Nian asked, Li Changxiao would definitely teach him. But Si Nian just refused to ask.
Even if Li Changxiao wanted to teach him, Si Nian would find an excuse to leave as soon as he said that. Fuyao's rabbit meat has a strong smell. Ginger and cooking wine cannot completely remove it. But adding some grass leaves can transform the strong smell into a fresh earthy taste.
Li Changxiao's unique skill is so simple that it is shocking. Of course... it is also because of this roasted rabbit that no one competes with him. Otherwise, if there were talented people in this generation, someone would have figured out this trick long ago.
Because they often come to the town for the first time, and the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, they always attract a lot of people to watch. Si Nian feels that there are many more seductive women on the street. He can't help thinking of the past, when he often heard: "There is a errand boy at the foot of the mountain, he is very handsome, but unfortunately his talent is not so good." "Yes, if he had better talent, I would take the initiative to attack." ... and so on. He felt a little unhappy.
So they dug a vegetable plot in front of the small wooden house. There happened to be a small river in front of the door. The two of them cultivated the vegetable plot and caught river fish. Even if they didn't make a penny, they were self-sufficient. Of course, after a while, they always went out to buy some wine and meat to enjoy themselves.
The fish in this river seemed to be stupid and foolish. Li Changxiao would catch one in half a year when fishing elsewhere. But when he sat by the river and lowered the hook, the fish bit the hook very frequently. He caught one every few breaths, and each one was big, with delicious and firm meat.
Just with this river, it would be no problem to get rich.
