The egret turned around and flew into Wang's house in Hengcun.

It's strange to say that the journey that used to take more than an hour now only takes a moment on the back of an egret.

A few years have passed, Mr. Wang's family has become very old, and he is more confused than awake every day. At this time, he has not gone out. He is only sitting in his bedroom, sitting on an armchair, facing the window, looking out the window.

The persimmon trees frame the landscape in the courtyard, and the birds that come to peck at the persimmons are mesmerizing.

A large egret landed on the treetop.

At some point, there was a young Taoist priest in the courtyard.

Lin Jue did not disturb anyone else, but held his hands towards the old gentleman inside through the window.

"Mr. Wang?"

"Ouch--"

This scene is really like a visit from gods.

The old gentleman looked at him carefully before standing up with crutches.

"Is it—Taoist Lin?"

The words were uncertain, but he was recognized.

The children of the Wang family are good at doing business and have contacts in the capital. Not to mention that there are still descendants of the Wang family who are still serving as officials in the court. He and Lin Jue are still old acquaintances. Naturally, he knows more about Lin Jue's affairs than the people in Shucun.

. Even the news that the people of Shucun heard came from the Wang family in Hengcun.

The old gentleman was a little surprised when he suddenly saw him.

But I saw the young Taoist smiled and asked, "Old sir, can you go in and reminisce about old times?"

"Oh please come in quickly!"

The old man walked slowly with a cane, trying to open the door for him, but he walked slowly, and before he could reach the door, the Taoist had already entered the house.

"If I don't bother you, old sir, please take a seat."

"You sit down too! Sit down too!"

"Sir, don't be so polite! In my heart, you are still the same old gentleman. I guess in your heart, I am still the same young scholar."

The old gentleman replied: Why not?

Lin Jue sat down and asked, "How are you doing, sir?"

"ah?"

The old gentleman leaned forward and listened.

"How is your health, sir?"

“That’s it—”

Then the two of them sat in the room and chatted.

The old gentleman is old, blind and deaf, and has long lost the majesty of the head of the family, but now he looks more kind.

The Taoist is no longer the little scholar he was before.

However, they all still have fresh memories of what happened back then.

Lin Jue chatted with him about the current world, the capital, and today's Huizhou. He also talked about the fairies and ghosts in Huizhou, and talked about gods and the underworld. Naturally, he also talked about the affairs of Hengcun and Shucun, and his cousin-in-law.

The spring light shines through the window, it is bright and beautiful.

Talking in the sun is full of comfort.

I don’t know if it’s because he is too old to be afraid of gods, ghosts, and ghosts, let alone a Taoist priest, or because Mr. Wang is already very powerful. He is not like his fellow villagers in Shucun, because Lin Jue’s rumored reputation in the capital is not enough.

He was in awe, as if everything was easy in his eyes.

In this way, the two of them chatted comfortably.

Mr. Wang remembered the younger generation in his family and told Lin Jue that his son was working as a foreign minister in the Ministry of Industry. Unfortunately, he was too upright and was very marginalized in the capital. He knew that the world was about to be in chaos, and his old bones were about to be buried.

He asked Lin Jue to help take care of him and keep him safe.

Lin Jue asked him to help take care of Shu Cun's relatives.

Although Mr. Wang will live for a hundred years, the Wang family will not disappear because of this. It is expected that the Wang family will be a powerful family in Huizhou for many years to come.

"I wonder if the spirit that was in the Wang family ancestral hall came back later?" Lin Jue asked again.

"It has never come back." Mr. Wang's old man said, "But I seemed to have dreamed about it some time ago.

But I couldn’t clearly see what it looked like in the dream, and I forgot what it said. I don’t know if I’m just old and confused or if it really gave me a dream.”

"I don't know where it went after that."

"yes--."

The old gentleman shook his head and felt a little emotional.

Lin Jue also sighed with the same emotion.

It's just that the old man is old and his life is approaching. He simply sighs about the past and has no other meaning. What Lin Jue sighs is the fate between this monster and himself.

This was the first spirit he met. It was the "person" who first showed him the mysterious interest of the world and prompted him to embark on this path at that time.

Now think about it carefully, that spirit monster can see its own five qi, so its five qi cannot be muddy and chaotic. And if it is as it said, this is a treasure place. It was the one who came here first, but

After leaving for a while, the people here later built an ancestral hall, so the right and wrong of such things are not so clear.

Being able to leave because of oneself is enough to illustrate its virtue.

Being able to remind myself that the Heavenly Soul is unstable because of its politeness before leaving is enough to show its broad-mindedness.

Such a spirit is better than most people.

That was truly a wonderful fate.

It's a pity that the world is too big.

Once separated, it is difficult for ordinary people to meet again.

"Well, these days, I often dream about things from the past. Foxes, gods, ghosts, and my parents in the ancestral hall are all a mess."

"I don't know how to interpret dreams."

"Is the Taoist Master's book still there?"

"It's still there. The book was well done and it's still the same as before——"

There are also many people living in the Wang family residence.

The rest of the family did not see Lin Jue's arrival, but only heard the continuous chatter in the old man's room.

At first, I thought that the old gentleman was confused again, mumbling, or talking to himself about "invisible people, gods and ghosts", but when someone who was curious listened carefully, they heard another voice.

The descendants of the Wang family gradually felt strange and did not dare to come in and take a look.

When someone dared to knock on the door, the sound gradually stopped. Just as Lin Jue was leaving, they heard the sound of flapping wings. When they walked to the bed and looked, they saw an egret that looked like a crane, carrying something like a crane on its back.

Some things rise to the sky without speed or speed.

The old gentleman was sitting alone, but there was another armchair beside him, with a pair of porcelain vases and a piece of talisman paper placed on it.

Where is the lasting friendship in this world?

Memories will fade and people will wither away.

Not to mention gods, even ordinary people, if you look around you, most of them are like this, right?

Lin Jue had inherited the friendship from Mr. Wang's family, so he was an old acquaintance. Even so, Mr. Wang's own character, conduct, and courage were needed to have a pleasant conversation with him.

One day, if there is no other maintenance, this friendship will slowly fade away.

At this moment, the relationship between Shanfuqiu Temple and Qiyunshan Xuantian Temple is quite good, also because in the previous few years, the two parties have had contacts, but in the next generation, they will slowly return to the past.

Just like Fuqiu Temple and Xianyuan Temple, the reason why the friendship can be passed down for so many years depends not only on the acquaintance of the ancestors, but also on the inheritance and maintenance of the subsequent generations.

Another example is yourself and your home.

The cousin has already married, and he is no longer the only one in his family. He has been the uncle and aunt for hundreds of years. Although no one wants to be alienated, it is also unavoidable.

Even if he could get along with his cousin as well as before, it was because they grew up together and had a deep relationship. Neither Lin Jue nor his cousin could let his cousin's wife and children be like this.

Most things in the world are like this.

In just an hour, the egret flew back to the mountain.

The little junior sister is practicing in the mountains.

When I looked up, I saw an egret flying by and the Taoist had landed.

"Senior brother is back?"

"Back."

"How's it going? Is it fun at home?"

"It's okay! When I went back this time, I met a few teenagers who met me and asked, where is the fairy Taoist nun who used to know magic? I reacted for a moment, and then I remembered that she used to circle around you outside the Sangu Temple.
