The strongest ancestor of the heavens

Chapter 16 The Willow Tree of Repayment

Seeing that no one was sitting in the lobby and everyone had fallen to the ground, Yuanhao used his spiritual energy to force out the power of alcohol and stood up.

Walking up to Mr. Liu, looking at Mr. Liu who was already drunk, he smiled softly.Now there is no trouble, you can take Master Liu to meet the willow tree, so as to satisfy the willow tree's last wish, so that you can leave with peace of mind.

Lifting Master Liu out of the lobby, Yuan Hao used spiritual energy to relieve Master Liu from the alcohol.Master Liu opened his eyes leisurely, as if he was still in a daze, glanced at Yuan Hao, raised his hand in a toast gesture: "Daoist Yuan, come, come, I will toast you again."

After a while, looking at Yuan Hao who was still motionless, Master Liu suddenly woke up, turned his head and looked around, only to find that he was no longer in the lobby, and asked in surprise: "Daoist Yuan, what does this mean? Do you think the old man didn't pay enough money? That's not necessary, is it?"

Yuan Hao said with a smile: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the poor Taoist is a person who cultivates the Tao, and the yellow and white things have limited effects on the poor Taoist, how can he be greedy? The reason for calling Master Liu out now is to solve your problem, Master Liu, but in the lobby People in the middle talk too much, it is inconvenient to say more, so I have to make a bad plan, I hope Master Liu will forgive me."

Hearing this, Master Liu's expression became a little better, at least he didn't seek money and murder, so Master Liu said suspiciously: "Daoist Yuan is a man of righteousness, I can trust you, but I don't know what else I can do ? Need to deliberately avoid the crowd?"

Yuan Hao pondered for a while, but still felt that it would be safer to tell Master Liu about Liu Shu as a story in advance, and ask Master Liu for his opinion, so that he would be prepared. Don't go to see Liu Shu right now, and be scared to death.

So Yuan Hao made a joke and said: "Wuliang Tianzun, there is a story here in the poor way. I hope Master Liu will listen to it and talk about his opinions. If it is really not pleasant to the ear, Master Liu will do as he pleases, and the poor way will not stop him." After speaking, he stretched out his hand in the direction of the lobby, as a gesture of freedom.

Master Liu looked in the direction of the lobby, hesitated for a while, and still smiled: "Please tell me, the Taoist priest, I will listen with all my ears."

Yuan Hao looked at Master Liu and said slowly: "Once upon a time, there was a young boy who was grazing cattle on the mountain, and suddenly saw a willow tree next to him with withered branches and leaves, and his life was short. Willows, take them home and plant them at home, and take good care of them.”

"Under the careful care of the young boy, regardless of the wind, rain, or lightning and thunder, the willow tree quickly came back to life. The young boy looked at the willow tree that came back to life, and said happily: "Willow tree, willow tree, I managed to save you." Yes, but there must be nothing wrong, you owe me your life."

"The child didn't know that the willow tree at that time had already gained a little wisdom and could hear the child's words. Therefore, the willow tree firmly remembered these words and swore: Even if it costs its own life, it will protect the child. May you have a safe life, no illness or disaster.”

"Decades have passed, the willow tree has become a towering tree, and the young boy has become a scholar because of his studies, saved a little family business, and became a master of scholar respected by everyone, but he still takes care of the willow tree himself as always, and the willow tree is moved It’s great, I thought, if only it would be like this all the time.”

"Suddenly, one day, Master Xiucai, who had been taking care of Liushu himself, stopped coming. On this day, Liushu felt that the sky was falling, and thought that something had happened to Master Xiucai, so he called him crazily, hoping that he could hear it, and come again Look at yourself."

"Willow has been waiting and waiting, hopeful that Master Xiucai will come to see him, even if he just glances at him, Liushu can know whether Master Xiucai is safe or not, but Liushu is disappointed, he has been waiting for three days and still does not see him coming, yes Crazy with the willow tree, shouting for benefactor all night."

Speaking of this, Yuan Hao looked at Master Liu, and found that Master Liu was trembling all over, with an excited expression, as if he had guessed that the talented master was himself, looking straight at Yuan Hao, expecting Yuan Hao to continue speaking with hope .

Yuan Hao continued: "What Liushu didn't know was that although Liushu was calling his benefactor all night, no one could understand him, so he thought his benefactor had passed away, but for some reason his breath was still there, so The mood is getting more and more violent.”

"What the willow tree doesn't know yet is that it's not that the old man doesn't take care of the willow tree anymore, but that the old man is getting older and getting up is a bit difficult, let alone taking care of the willow tree himself, so a misunderstanding arises like this, and the willow tree starts to stay up all night shouted."

"I don't need to continue talking about Mr. Liu later, do you? I guess you have already guessed what's going on. Mr. Liu, tell me what you think."

Master Liu murmured with tears all over his face: "So it's you, old friend, no wonder I'm fine here, and I'll die as soon as I leave." Suddenly, Master Liu turned his head and looked straight at Yuan Hao and said: " Daoist Priest, I know you are a master of Taoism, can you let me say goodbye to my old friend, after all, this old man is in his forties, and I don’t know if there will be a tomorrow after living today.”

Yuan Hao tapped the sky lightly, and said compassionately: "Heavenly Rescue the Suffering, Master Liu, come with me, and the poor Taoist will help you." After speaking, Yuan Hao took Master Liu to the 'Chunlai Pavilion' .

At this time, it is the middle of the month, the moon hangs above the head like a white jade plate, and the soft moonlight sprinkles like water and shines into people's hearts.Through the moonlight, Mr. Liu could see a huge willow tree standing quietly in the middle of the yard at this time, it was the willow tree that he had been taking care of carefully.

Mr. Liu couldn't help turning his head to look at Yuan Hao. He didn't go forward until he saw Yuan Hao nodding his head. He patted the willow tree lightly and said, "Old friend, thank you for being with me all the time. I'm old and I don't have much life left. , you still have such a long life, don’t worry about me, I’m just a passer-by in your long life.”

The willow tree suddenly waved its long willow branches excitedly, making a salsa sound.Seeing this, Yuan Hao walked quietly behind Master Liu, raised his hand and injected a wave of spiritual energy into Master Liu's ears, and then walked away without a sound.

Outside the courtyard, Yuan Hao quietly looked at the full moon in the sky, meditating on the matter silently, only then did he realize that all things have feelings and have their own worldview and values, such as the willow tree, if Mr. Liu is in danger now, the willow tree will definitely not He hesitated to step forward to prevent disaster for Mr. Liu, even at the cost of his life.

But I just don’t know how long this feeling can last. After all, the most terrifying thing in the world is time. Will people’s hearts change in 100 or 1000 years?Yuan Hao asked himself silently, but the answer he got was: yes.

Yuan Hao himself will change, but Yuan Hao is sure that his desire to pursue the Dao will not change, as long as he does not climb to the peak where there is no way forward, he will exist forever.

At this moment, the system prompt sounded: "The system prompts, the host has completed the random task: Repaying the Gratitude of the Willow Tree, and rewarded a book of the first solution to the rune. The item has been distributed, and the host can claim it at any time."

With nothing to do, Yuan Hao received the first explanation of the runes, looked carefully, and couldn't help gnashing his teeth and cursed: "Damn the system, I knew it, you are a cheat, this is really a commentary on basic runes."
