At this time, he was passing through a county town.
On the broad official road, there are many pedestrians and business travelers coming and going, and the flow of people is bustling, making it quite lively.
Lu Li led his horse forward and when he reached the city gate, he looked up and saw the word Shouyang written on it.
"Shouyang?"
He read the name in a low voice, but suddenly remembered that it seemed like when Ning Caichen introduced himself before.
He once said that he is from Shouyang.
¡®It seems that this familiar aura is related to Ning Caichen. ¡¯
Lu Li thought that Ning Caichen should have relatives here, and his home was here, so it was not impossible for him to sense Ning Caichen's aura.
"Go and have a look."
Since he arrived near Ning Caichen's house by chance, he had no intention of leaving just like that.
After going around all the way, following the direction of the aura, Lu Li came to a rather remote alley in the city.
The houses in this alley are crowded and most of them are dilapidated. The residents who come and go are also wearing rags, making them look very poor.
Thinking of the blue shirt that Ning Caichen wore, which was almost turning white after washing, it seemed that the conditions in the other party's family were indeed very poor.
Walk to the center of the alley.
There is a well here, and several people are drawing water at this time.
Lu Li stopped and looked up at the person in front of him who was fetching water.
That's an old woman.
Wearing linen clothes with many patches on his body, his hair is tied in a bun with a wooden branch. His hair is full of silver, his face is full of wrinkles, and his original appearance can hardly be seen.
"It's very similar to your aura, and it feels like it comes from the same source. Is this Ning's mother?"
Lu Li looked at the old woman, who was struggling to turn the rope on the side of the well to pull the barrel filled with well water out of the well.
A bucket of water was pulled up, and Ning¡¯s mother lifted the bucket. Perhaps because she was too old, she didn¡¯t hold it very securely, so a lot of water splashed out and wet her trousers.
A woman who was fetching water next to her saw her and quickly came to help, so she didn't spill the water.
But in the end, I still couldn't lift the water, so I had no choice but to pour out more than half of the well water in the bucket, and then I reluctantly carried the remaining half of the bucket in a certain direction.
"Ning is really suffering."
The woman who originally helped saw Ning¡¯s mother leaving and looked at the old and hunched figure, and couldn¡¯t help but sigh.
"Who says it's not?"
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out and said: "It's hard to raise a son of such a big age to go to school, who would have thought that he would go to Jinhua County and never come back."
"He left like this, leaving behind a sick wife and widowed mother. His wife was seriously ill and couldn't do heavy work at all. Now the family can only rely on Ning to support it. But seeing as you are so old, you probably It won¡¯t last two years, alas.¡±
"It's been three years. I heard that Ning Caichen went to the Jinhua Ghost Temple and was seduced by the female ghost inside. He will never come back."
"Hush, do you dare to say that to Lanruo Temple?"
"Ah, yes, yes, no more, let's get some water, we are preparing to boil water at home."
The chatter of several people reached Lu Li's ears.
His expression remained unchanged, and he looked at Ning Mu's figure gradually walking away, and followed her with steps.
Not far ahead is a dilapidated house.
The house is made of rammed earth and covered with tiles. It can be seen that it should be pretty good originally.
But now.
Many walls of the house have fallen off, and the tiles are much thinner. You can still vaguely see some cracks and some holes, which have even been filled with thatch.
All in all, it can be described as a rundown.
"Mother is back."
Ning¡¯s mother entered the house and was greeted by a woman with a pale face and yellow hair.
She helped Ning¡¯s mother pour water into the water tank.
Not much work was done before the person started breathing heavily and sweating.
"If you are not in good health, don't do these physical jobs. Although I am old, I can still lift water."
Ning¡¯s mother saw the woman¡¯s hard work and quickly blamed her.
"I¡¡"
Seeing Ning¡¯s mother¡¯s dissatisfied look, the woman finally nodded and said, ¡°Okay, then I¡¯ll continue washing the clothes.¡±
"Go ahead, wash the clothes early and send them to a few gentlemen." Ning's mother nodded.
Now they are the only two women at home, one of them is sick and the otherOf course he is too old to do much work.
With Ning Caichen leaving and never coming back, they lost their only source of income.
¡°Two years ago, I was able to survive by selling off some of my family property. Now that all my family property has been sold, I can only take on some simple starching work, and do some embroidery on weekdays to earn a little money to survive.
Ning¡¯s wife went to do the laundry.
Ning¡¯s mother stood where she was, but looked to the east, which was the direction of Jinhua County and the final destination of her son.
"My son"
As she looked at it, she couldn't help but shed two tears.
"My mother knows that you are fine. You must be fine. Those people are talking nonsense. You will come back sooner or later. Before you come back, I will definitely guard this home and won't let you be homeless."
After mumbling a few words in a hoarse voice, Ning¡¯s mother came to her senses, continued to pick up the bucket, and went out to fetch water from the alley.
"Laundry consumes the most water. Now they have taken over washing work, which is their only livelihood."
So even if you are tired, you can only keep fetching water back and forth.
Only at night, after dark, can we have a moment of rest.
Lu Li saw this scene clearly.
"The red sleeves add fragrance, the warm jade is in the arms, but the old mother and sick wife at home are struggling to survive. The confusion of reincarnation for hundreds of lives really obscures the eyes of the mind."
He sighed, then turned around and left.
Ning Caichen is still struggling for his love with Nie Xiaoqian in the illusion of reincarnation at Lanruo Temple, dragging down Yan Chixia and Yue Yuze, as well as Grandma Shu and all the ghosts under her command.
The bitter love between the two people ended up affecting so many people.
Should we say that true love must be tempered by fire?
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous."
With a mocking smile, Lu Li continued to ride his horse and headed east.
Another day has passed.
With a magical power engraved on the talisman again, Lu Li has arrived in Jinhua County.
We have explored the road before.
When he came here again this time, he was very familiar with it, so he walked in the direction of Lanruo Temple.
After an hour, Lu Li arrived at Lanruo Temple again.
Hazy.
It seems to have rained here this morning.
At this time, a large area of ??fog arose in the locust tree forest.
These fogs obscure the view, making it impossible to see the real thing in the forest. You can only vaguely see a bit of green, with some darkness in the middle, like a mysterious country.
¡°It doesn¡¯t look like much has changed?¡±
Lu Li opened his Youtong Dharma Eye and scanned the woods in front of him. The chaotic and twisted aura still existed, and the sense of illusion still lingered.
The world of fantasy is still the world of fantasy, still the same as before.
"Did Fellow Daoist Yue fail in the end and fail to change the illusion?"
