When Wang Erniu mentioned that Miss Su, his face was full of undisguised respect.
They were not cultured, but they knew how to be grateful.
When he was still a child, that Miss Su appeared in Qingshan Village.
At that time, the village, as well as the surrounding villages and towns, encountered a plague of unknown origin.
Many people died in it, and there were floating corpses everywhere. Everyone was in despair.
Even the most famous doctor was infected by the plague, and in the end, he chose to burn himself with fire.
Some of the cultivation sects in the distance were also helpless. In order to prevent the disaster from spreading, they could only think of a way to burn this place.
When everyone was in despair, it was Miss Su, who passed by, who saved everyone.
It was a plague that could harm people, but when it fell into her hands, it was completely fine.
Even now, Wang Erniu could still remember the scene.
Miss Su, who was as beautiful as a fairy, was dressed in white and walked over like a fairy.
She held a white jade bottle in her hand, and there was a freshly picked willow branch in it. Wherever she walked, drops of water would sprinkle, and everyone's symptoms would be resolved.
The plague that had engulfed more than a dozen nearby villages was resolved by her hands, vanishing like smoke in thin air.
In everyone's hearts, that Miss Su was a living Bodhisattva who saved people.
Subsequently, Miss Su temporarily settled down in the east of Qingshan Village, near a lake.
She built a small courtyard surrounded by green bamboo. The lake was clear, and she raised some poultry and some medicinal herbs.
Sometimes, she would sit cross-legged in the middle of the lake and play the zither.
When some villagers fell ill, they would also come to ask her for help.
Sometimes, she would also appear in the private school outside and teach some children in the village to read and read.
That Miss Su had stayed like this for several decades, and her appearance had never changed.
There were also powerful cultivators who wanted to visit after hearing the news. However, before they could get close, they became respectful on the way.
When they did not see her in person, they turned around and left respectfully, not daring to show any disrespect.
Therefore, all the villagers believed that the mysterious Miss Su of unknown origins was an immortal with unfathomable strength.
No one knew where she came from, and no one knew her real name.
He only knew that her surname was Su and that she was as beautiful as a fairy. She liked to wear white clothes and play the zither in the middle of the lake.
Some villagers guessed that she might have come here to relax, or perhaps she once had a sweetheart and was missing someone.
The sound of the zither was sometimes continuous, like a lingering smoke, and sometimes as cold as ice, high and piercing through the clouds.
"I only said that I wanted to marry Big Sister Fairy, I didn't say that I wanted to marry Big Sister Su. Big Sister Su wouldn't fancy a little brat like me."
"Besides, Father, you're the one who's talking nonsense. Let me tell you, I have a foundation. Today, when I was herding cows, I met an old Daoist who appeared on his sword."
"He smiled and patted my head. He said that I had sword bones and was suitable for swordsmanship. He even asked me if I wanted to become an immortal like him, who could fly in the sky and burrow into the earth …"
"Then, he gave me a jade pendant and told me to wait for him."
In the face of his father's harsh criticism, Wang Xiaoniu was very dissatisfied and told him what happened during the day.
After returning from the market, he was asked by his father to herd cows at the entrance of the village. It was there that he met the mysterious old Daoist.
The old Daoist chuckled and patted his head and hands, saying that he was a good seedling who was suitable for swordsmanship and that he could become a powerful Sword Immortal like him in the future.
While speaking, Wang Xiaoniu took out a simple jade pendant with sword patterns.
He shook it under the shocked gazes of his father and mother.
"This is …"
Wang Erniu originally thought that this child was lying to him and spouting nonsense.
However, after seeing this jade pendant, he was completely stunned.
Qingshan Village only had about a hundred families.
However, the surrounding villagers were no stranger to immortals, or cultivators.
In their eyes, flying in the sky and burrowing into the earth was a representation of immortals.
The strong ones could even live for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years.
The Scorching Sun Sect was the cultivation sect closest to Qingshan Village.
The sect master was called Master Scorching Sun. It was said that he had lived for more than 800 years and could easily control fire and boil the sea.
Even many rich young masters in the nearby cities were racking their brains in an attempt to join the school.
However, the Scorching Sun Sect had a high requirement for accepting disciples. Even if they paid a lot of money, they could only become a servant disciple at most.
If they wanted to cultivate superior cultivation techniques, they must have a suitable foundation. Otherwise, they would have to work hard for the rest of their lives.
Although Wang Erniu and the others were ordinary people, they knew that immortals were not something they could pursue.
Therefore, when he heard his son say these words, he wanted to scold him and tell him not to be delusional and to herd cows obediently.
If he was capable in the future, he would pass the exam and become a scholar and bring glory to the family.
If not, he would sell the cows and find a wife to carry on the family line.
However, Wang Erniu did not expect that his son would be so lucky to encounter the legendary immortal fate.
"Is … is this true?"
He suddenly became excited and almost forgot that there was a guest in the family, Gu Changge.
He could not even complete his sentence and became trembling.
What did immortals mean to ordinary people? Flying in the sky and burrowing into the earth? Glory and wealth? Longevity and longevity?
Those were not people they could come into contact with or even imagine.
Now, he suddenly learned that his son could become such an immortal?
The couple's excitement and disbelief could be imagined.
Although Wang Xiaoniu was young, he knew what this meant.
He raised his face and said proudly, "Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you, Father? I saw with my own eyes that old Taoist master controlled a flying sword and fell from the sky … "
"That's great, that's great …"
Wang Erniu was extremely excited. His rough hands caressed the jade pendant as if it was a treasure.
Suddenly, he realized something and hurriedly turned around to look at Gu Changge, who had been silent and eating the dishes on the table.
"Xiaoniu, keep this jade pendant. Don't let anyone know."
He hurriedly instructed. It was not that he was worried about Gu Changge who was suddenly brought home.
It was just that he was used to being honest. When he suddenly saw an immortal fate, it was as if he was used to being poor and suddenly received a priceless treasure.
Moreover, this jade pendant was definitely not simple.
If he lost it and was blamed by the Exalted Immortal, wouldn't he lose his immortal fate?
Moreover, what if this jade pendant was the Exalted Immortal's test for his son?
"I know, Father. Don't worry."
Although Wang Xiaoniu was young, he was very sensible and smart. He hurriedly kept the jade pendant, knowing that there was an unknown outsider in the house.
After this incident, Wang Erniu and his wife were no longer in the mood to continue eating.
At first, Wang Erniu thought that Gu Changge looked a little extraordinary.
However, he looked a little travel-worn, and his face looked weary and even haggard. Out of kindness, he brought him home and let him have a meal.
He did not know Gu Changge's background or name.
Only when Gu Changge opened her mouth to ask for water did he ask.
However, Gu Changge did not explain much and only smiled amiably. This made Wang Erniu have a good impression of him.
Although this person looked travel-worn, he seemed to have walked a long way.
However, it was difficult to hide the nobility and extraordinariness in his actions and words. It was not something that boorish people like them could compare to.
Moreover, this was the first time he had seen such a good-looking man. Although he looked travel-worn, it was difficult to hide his handsome facial features.
After washing his face, he and his wife were a little dazed.
This made Wang Erniu wonder if Gu Changge was a fallen noble who had wandered here.
"Big brother, where are you going?"
"I think you seem to have walked a long way."
Seeing that the family of three was talking about the jade pendant immortal fate, Gu Changge seemed to be indifferent. He did not hear them and just quietly ate the dishes in his bowl.
Wang Erniu finally could not help but ask.
"Where am I going?"
When Gu Changge heard this, he raised his eyes, but there was some confusion in his expression.
He did not know where he was going. It was as if he was looking for an invisible path to the end of this path.
However, he did not know what this path was, nor did he have any memories of it.
It was as if only his instincts were urging him to continue on his journey.
However, he was quite tired now and just wanted to find a place to stop. Perhaps after resting enough, he would continue on his journey.
Seeing Gu Changge's expression, Wang Erniu was also stunned. He did not expect that Gu Changge himself did not know the answer to this question.
This state did not seem right.
Could it be that he had forgotten something?
At this moment, Wang Erniu's guess became more and more certain. He felt that Gu Changge had become like this because he could not take a huge blow.
In fact, he already had a complete story in his heart.
Gu Changge was originally born in a wealthy family and had a noble status.
However, an unforeseen event caused a drastic change in the family. He lost his previous status and identity. Unable to take such a huge blow, he began to wander around. He did not know where he would go in the future.
"He's also a pitiful person."
Wang Erniu shook his head.
He had seen many such things. Over the years, he had heard that many dynasties had fallen and there had been wars everywhere. There were many people like Gu Changge.
They were once noble young masters with noble statuses and rich lives. They had stretched out their hands and opened their mouths to eat, and they enjoyed endless glory and wealth.
However, now, he was just a pitiful person wandering around. He could not even be compared to a villager like him.
At least now, he could eat his fill and wear warm clothes. He did not have to eat his fill or starve. He also had a place to stay and shelter from the rain.
He had a hardworking and virtuous wife and a sensible and smart son.
Moreover, his son had obtained the legendary immortal fate and would soon become an immortal.
Thinking of this, Wang Erniu could not help but reveal a blissful smile. He was very satisfied.
Gu Changge looked at this scene and seemed to be a little moved. He looked slightly confused.
Was he … being pitied and pitied by a person?
Was this what it meant to be satisfied and happy?
So simple?
But … why had he never felt like this before?
What had he always been pursuing? He was always trying to fill that empty and empty gap. He was always on the path of pursuit, but he was never satisfied.
What was he not satisfied with? What was he missing?
Gu Changge felt his head hurt a little. He knew that he should have forgotten something.
As long as he wanted to, he could instantly recall it.
However, he did not do so.
"I just want to experience all of this personally …"
Gu Changge regained his calm and did not continue to investigate.
Everyone had different pursuits. There was no need to measure yourself by other people's pursuits and satisfaction.
He just wanted to quietly experience all of this and understand what it was.
"When I become an immortal, I will take Father and Mother to the best city to live. I will buy the best wine for Father and the best jewelry for Mother …"
"Look at you. Immortals can fly and burrow into the ground. They are omnipotent. Not to mention living in the city, they can even buy it easily."
"Hehe, I'm just saying. First, think about the scene at that time. When the time comes, I will find an elixir for Mother to stay young forever. She will always be beautiful and moving like Sister Su. "
"Okay, okay, Mother knows that you are filial."
"Big Sister Su? Miss Su is even older than your father. You little brat, if you dare to call her that, I'll beat you up …"
Under the dim oil lamp, the faces of the family of three were filled with happy smiles. They were imagining and looking forward to the future.
Gu Changge watched quietly. He seemed to have some kind of enlightenment in his heart.
After the meal, Wang Erniu cleaned up a clean guest room for him and changed the bedding. They usually could not bear to live in this room.
Wang Erniu felt that Gu Changge was used to living with a noble identity and would definitely not be comfortable.
So he specially put a layer of soft hay under the bed.
Gu Changge was not used to this simple and honest man's kindness.
But he also did not want to owe him anything. After thinking about it, he also took out an exquisite jade pendant.
Although he could not remember the value of this jade pendant, he understood that even if it was exchanged for silver, it would be enough for this family of three to live a rich life for several lifetimes.
But Wang Erniu would not accept it even if he was beaten to death. He knew that this jade pendant was definitely expensive, but he was not willing to accept it no matter what.
In his eyes, this little bit of help for Gu Changge was not as valuable as this jade pendant.
Moreover, this jade pendant may be very important to Gu Changge.
What if it could help him remember something in the future?
Although he guessed that the jade pendant's value was amazing, he did not think of monopolizing it at all.
Gu Changge was not used to owing people anything, but since he was staying here for the time being.
The next day, he still followed Wang Erniu, wanting to do something to compensate him.
In the field, Wang Erniu was wiping the weeds with a hoe, sweating like rain. Gu Changge was also learning from him.
This novel experience made him feel a rare sense of wonder. It seemed that he had a new understanding of something.
Wang Erniu could not persuade him, so he could only give up with a bitter smile and let Gu Changge help.
