You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Chapter 520 Like a Dream

In autumn, when the drizzle fell, the unique graceful beauty of the south naturally dazzled the eyes of Shi Xiaoliu and the other two.

When they arrived in the south, it was the season of drizzling rain.

They sat in the teahouse, looking at the graceful figures of women walking on the street below and listening to their soft voices talking.

Xia Yu looked at Shi Zelan with deep emotion: "Sister Lan, you came to the south and saw the southern women. What do you feel?"

Shi Zelan glanced at him and said, "Xia Yu, will you choose your future Taoist partner based on the appearance of a southern woman?"

Xia Yu's face suddenly turned red: "I didn't mean that. I know I have no chance with women from the mortal world."

Shi Xiaoliu frowned and looked at him. Shi Zelan sighed, "You are making things worse."

Xia Yu stared at the two of them: "There is no such person as you mentioned. I just sighed for a moment."

Shi Xiaoliu looked at him deeply and asked, "Did you encounter any special people or things when you came to the south last time?"

Xia Yu thought for a moment and said, "I met a pair of siblings who came out to make a living."

"Where did you last see them?"

Xia Yu pointed to a place and said, "That's where they rented a small yard."

"Then let's go over there and see if we can get any news about the brother and sister."

"Don't go.

Decades have passed, and the world has changed. I am afraid we will never see each other again."

Shi Xiaoliu was already calculating with his fingers. After a while, he said to Xia Yu, "Go, maybe you'll have a chance to meet an old friend."

Xia Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "What if I meet him?"

"No big deal. I'm already here, so I'll just go."

Shi Zelan encouraged Xia Yu, and he finally stood up.

Led by Xia Yu, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan walked to the place in his memory.

The shabby little courtyard in the past has now been renovated into an exquisite little courtyard.

"Grandma, where are you going now?"

"Nannan, it seems like someone is knocking on the door."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two stood at the gate of the yard. Xia Yu's hand was half raised, still hesitating whether to knock on the door.

When the old woman saw the three people standing at the gate of the yard, she smiled and said to the girl who followed her out, "Nannan, someone is knocking on the door."

The girl came over and stood in front of the old woman and asked, "What do you want?"

Xia Yu shook his head, then nodded and said, "My grandfather came here before, and he said he knew a brother and sister who lived here.

I came here this time just to take a look."

The old woman walked up to the girl, looked at Xia Yu carefully, and then asked with a smile: "Is your last name Xia?"

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances. This guy still remembered Xia Yu.

"That's great. Brother Xia's grandson has grown up so much. Come in and sit with him."

Xia Yu entered the yard, and Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan could only follow him. They sat down under the eaves.

The old woman's face was full of reminiscence as she said, "We got this yard thanks to the money that Brother Xia left behind. We made some money from doing business, and the owner wanted to sell the yard, so we bought it."

"My grandfather didn't tell me these things. He only said that he met a pair of ambitious siblings in the south."

"Brother Xia is such a good man, and you look like Brother Xia. I'll have someone help my brother over later."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were silent, listening to the old woman reminiscing about her youth, and sighed: “Back then, my brother said, it’s a pity that Brother Xia is not from here.

Otherwise, he would definitely keep in touch with Brother Xia."

The girl brought three cups of tea. Her eyes fell on Shi Zelan's face curiously. Shi Zelan smiled at her. She sipped it and then blushed.

The old woman told the girl to go and pick up her uncle, and also asked her to ask her father to go home as well.

Xia Yu quickly spoke up to stop him: "Old man, no need, we will leave soon." "Yes, yes.

Brother Xia’s descendants are here, let my descendants meet Brother Xia as well.”

Shi Zelan passed on the message to Shi Xiaoliu: "She was very beautiful when she was young, no wonder Xia Yu had a slight liking for her."

Shi Xiaoliu glanced at her, and Shi Zelan listened to the old woman and Xia Yu telling stories of the old times with a serious expression.

"Sister, are Brother Xia's descendants coming to see us?"

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two turned to look over. A look of excitement flashed across Xia Yu's eyes, but then quickly calmed down.

The old man came over, walked to Xia Yu who stood up, and said with a smile: "It looks like when we first met Brother Xia, he was as handsome as his descendants.

Hahaha.

Xia boy, how is your grandfather now? "

"He's fine."

The old man and the old woman asked Xia Yu how many days she would be here. Xia Yu smiled and said, "We will leave here soon."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two politely declined the old man and the old woman's invitation to stay for dinner, and they said goodbye and left.

As the three of them were walking on the road, they heard the soft and graceful voices of the women passing by.

"It's raining."

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two left, the old man and the old woman sat in the yard and talked, but after a while, it started to rain.

The old woman sighed, “That year, when we met Brother Xia, he refused to stay and dine with us.

Now his grandson is here, but he still doesn’t want to stay and dine with us.”

The old man looked at the expression on the old woman's face and said, "It feels like a dream to meet the descendants of Brother Xia."

"elder brother.

How could this be a dream?

If you don't believe me, I'll let my eldest son take you to the inn to meet someone again."

"Okay, it's a pity that he said he won't be going home for the time being. Otherwise, we can bring some things to Brother Xia."

"Let's send some food over so they can eat on the way."

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two returned to the inn and sat down in Shi Xiaoliu's house. Xia Yu sighed, "Life is short."

Shi Xiaoliu looked at him, and Shi Zelan looked at Xia Yu and comforted him, "I think they are living a comfortable life now, and their children and grandchildren are filial."

Xia Yu stopped talking, and Shi Zelan quickly returned to her room.

In the evening, Shi Zelan heard that there was a guest in Xia Yu's room.

She released her spiritual sense and looked over, and saw that it was Xia Yu's old friends who came with their children to deliver food.

Shi Zelan withdrew his spiritual consciousness and continued to meditate and practice.

After a while, Shi Xiaoliu came and knocked on the door, and Shi Zelan opened the door.

"Sister Lan, come over for dinner."

Shi Zelan closed the door and followed Shi Xiaoliu to Xia Yu's room.

There was a pile of food on the table in Xia Yu's room.

Xia Yu smiled at Shi Zelan and said, "It's time to eat, Sister Lan, let's eat."

Shi Zelan entered the room and Shi Xiaoliu closed the door.

Xia Yu collected the things on the table and poured water for Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu.

Shi Xiaoliu drank some water and asked Xia Yu, "When are we leaving?"

"Tomorrow."

Shi Zelan looked at the expression on Xia Yu's face and said, "If you still want to see the scenery of the south, why don't we change our plan and stay in another inn for a few days?"
