The two old men outside the house silently raised their hands and high-fived in tacit agreement.
"Would you like a drink?" Ya Xiu raised the bottle, but Haita hesitated for a moment, then raised the glass: "Well... let's have a little bit."
Not only did they give high fives to celebrate, they even decided to have a drink because of the plan that went too smoothly.
Of course... we can't say that the two of them were immoral and deceived their old friends.
Just asking Fulilian to teach her disciples normally, she would definitely not agree to it. Past cases are enough to prove this.
Although the two of them calculated what Fulian had achieved, leaving her here to teach Fearon seemed a bit excessive, but it was actually not too much.
Five or six years is a long time for humans, but for Fulian...
Just like she said in the past, even teaching a student can lead to death if one is not careful, so she could spend this time just being lazy.
As an apology, Haita made the dinner more sumptuous than ever. Of course...it might also be because he was happy to have an old friend visiting.
............................
Fulilian unexpectedly kept her promise and taught Philan with all her heart, and Philan was quite diligent in getting a mentor who was far better than the one in the academy.
But Ash was completely liberated, and from time to time he would go to the north and disappear for a month or two, and then come back as if nothing had happened.
He disappeared from time to time, and he didn't even tell anyone in detail, but they had a tacit understanding and no one asked.
Another winter is coming soon, and Fulian, who is afraid of the cold, has no intention of going out in this weather, and just huddles by the fire.
Ash just came back from outside, and he habitually wanted to hold Fei Lun on his lap to use as a heater, but Fei Lun, who was just offered hot tea, shrank away in great resistance.

After Fulian joined the big family in this forest house and greatly increased the average age of the house, the peaceful years passed slowly.
As spring passed and autumn came, Feilun's hair gradually grew from shoulder length to waist length.
It's just another winter, when the snowflakes outside the window are overwhelming, accumulating a thick layer on the ground, and the wind outside the window keeps whistling, fast and low... Ash's heart feels as cold as outside the window. Cool.
"...A child who is so sensible and well-behaved, is now in a rebellious stage?" Ashton, who was sitting on the rocking chair, felt lonely and sad after being shunned by the children he had watched since childhood.
Fulian, who had her hands close to the fire to absorb as much warmth as possible, took a glance and confirmed:
"You just left for half a year this time... Feilun must have been separated from you. You are obviously not an elf, but you don't understand children better than me."
"is that so?"
Although the fireplace was burning brightly and could not help but make the muffled sound of burning wood breaking, but since he was a child, he saw that the older children were in a horrifyingly cold and raw state compared to the rebellious stage, and Ash's heart suddenly became colder.
It was just that the old man drinking tea beside him couldn't help but roll his eyes at the two of them when he heard this conversation, but he didn't bother to correct anything.
Feilun, who was standing by the side, stared at Ash and puffed his cheeks wordlessly, but when he looked over, he hummed quietly and looked away, as if refusing to communicate.
It's really impossible for adults to understand the mood of a child. This is probably a generation gap, right? ——Although he felt quite regretful, Ash still reached out out of habit, placed his hand on Feilun's head and stroked it gently.
Even though she was dissatisfied with him, Feilun did not resist this action, and the expression on his face softened unconsciously.
Although she had long decided not to ask more about Ash's affairs to avoid causing unnecessary burden to him, but this time he disappeared suddenly for so long, and Feilun could not suppress the worry in her heart. Under this gentle touch, I couldn't help but ask:
"——Master Ash, why do you always have to leave?"
"Well...I also have various things to do."
"What? Are you going on a date or something?"
"A date?" Hearing such words from Fei Lun's mouth made him slightly stunned, and he couldn't help but feel relieved that his child had grown up: "Now you actually know that you have a date."
"Lord Frilian said that Lord Ash has very vulgar desires and always wants to watch shooting stars with women... Is this true?"
"No, no, no, this isn't vulgar at all, is it?" He shook his head dumbfoundedly, and couldn't help but glare at Fulilian, scolding dissatisfiedly:
"You guys are fine, why are you teaching this child such nonsense?"
"No, I didn't say vulgar." Fulilian waved her hands repeatedly.
"Haita!"
"Look at what I'm doing." Haita shook his head speechlessly: "I don't think it's vulgar either. Why don't you say, isn't this a man's romance?"
"That's it! It's not vulgar at all!" After receiving the support from his friendly troops, he immediately said confidently: "Philon, you can't do this, are you? You use such dirty thoughts to evaluate my noble soul, and you even taught yourself strange things. ”
"..." Feilun ignored him, but turned to stare at Haita dissatisfied: "...Lord Haita...!"
Just like that, Haita Chongdong immediately changed his tune and pointed the finger at Ash: "I was joking just now. In fact, this is really vulgar. As a man, you shouldn't do it."
"Master Ash! Did you hear that? Master Haita, the bishop, said so! Please reflect quickly! And then correct it!"
Ferren, who turned from an enemy to a friend in an instant, puffed up his cheeks like a pufferfish and asked him to change with righteous words, which made him dumbfounded on the spot: "Is this really my fault?"
"Of course!"
"Haa... As expected, when children grow up, they are no longer close to their parents and start to rebel."
Ash did not argue with her, but quietly took out the treasured magic props from his pocket.
He injected magic with a nostalgic expression, and the childish voice of Philen when he was a child suddenly came out:
"——If it weren't for Master Ash, I might have died on the roadside! It was Master Ash who gave me hot food and a clean bed! It gave me a home! When I was uneasy, it was you...!"
"——Wait, wait a minute! What, what is this?!"
Philen, who was puffing up his face, soon recognized that it was his own voice, and immediately rushed forward with a red face to stop it.
But he stood up and dodged immediately, and while listening, he sighed with regret: "The old Philen was so cute, and he would say that he liked me the most, but the current Philen... Alas! Sure enough, I still like the Philen when he was a child."
"--When did you record it?! Please hurry up and hand over that strange thing~!"
"No~"
"I... I'm really angry!!"
"You won't give it to me even if you're angry. This is my spiritual support! Losing it is like losing my soul!"
........
Even if Philen pounced on him and kept standing on tiptoe to grab it, Ash didn't compromise at all, and even insisted on playing the recording.
This made Philen really helpless, so she clenched her fists and puffed up her tender face. Even though she had already blushed, she still stared at him.
To say that it was cute, it was indeed quite cute, and it was really not scary at all, so Ash didn't intend to compromise, and happily showed off his treasure to Flillian.
Fulilian couldn't help but nod and admire: "You really have something good, but such a cold Philen actually has such a lovely period, even I didn't expect it."
"That's it~"
......
The two of them got together and chatted so passionately, but the price was... Philen turned his back with a puffy face and ignored them all night.
Even the next day, Haita didn't say a good word for them, forcing the two to apologize to her one after another.
But even so, she forgave Fulilian but not Ash, because Ash was still unwilling to hand over the recording and tell him to go to the photo.
This also led to Philen's direct cold war with him for several days, forcing him to decide not to easily take out this decisive prop until the critical moment.
..........................
..........................
In fact, it's not that Ash didn't want to say what he did, but he didn't explain the situation clearly many times.
In addition to going to the Magic City, he went to the King's Capital and the Demon King's City most of the time.
Because there are two big demons in the Demon King's City, the corrupt sage Guval and the bloody military god Livale, one can teach him innovative magic and the other can teach him martial arts.
And they are both quite strong. If they are not careful, they may cause big trouble outside. If he doesn't go there regularly, he can't control the situation. Of course... he also plans to improve himself, so he often goes to the Demon King's City.
If he doesn't go there regularly, it is estimated that countless towns and villages in the world will suffer. Guval is still able to concentrate on research and is unlikely to run away for no reason.
But Livale is a berserker and has always wanted to find a qualified warrior to fight. This time he wanted to go to the Warrior Village to see if there is anyone who can take on a move, but he chose to give up when his more qualified opponent came.
Fortunately, he only occupied the Demon King's City and did not declare that he wanted to be the Demon King, which avoided a lot of trouble to a certain extent.
However, compared to the normal state of the Demon King's Castle, the cabin in the forest gradually became solemn and tense as time went by, from a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
Because Haita's body became weaker and weaker as time went by, and even the continuous coughing could be heard at night.
But magic can heal external injuries, but it can't heal diseases at all, and it is of no help to the aging of the human body. Not to mention Fulilian and Ash, even Philen can clearly feel that Haita's life is about to come to an end.
This is why she couldn't help but nervously ask Fulilian when she saw Haita accidentally fall and lie in bed:
".... Lord Fulilian, is there no progress on that magic book? Can't you speed up the progress a little bit?"
"I feel that the magic book is probably... No, don't worry, I will speed up the progress." Fulilian thought of something halfway through her words, and shook her head silently, temporarily giving up talking.
In Haita's room, Ash was sitting on a chair beside the bed, but he crossed his arms and said nothing.
Haita, who had fallen on the bed and needed to rest for a while, smiled at him, who had not changed:
"From now on, the child will depend on you."
"It's a little too early to say my last words now."
"....However, it will probably be soon."
"That's true."
"Sorry."
"What topic?"
"All kinds." Haita slowly closed his eyes. There was not much fear of death on his face. The only thing that existed was reluctance and nostalgia.
In the days that followed, Fearon continued to practice magic, hoping to fulfill the agreement he and Haita made during his absence.
Using attack magic to penetrate the rocks on the other side of the mountain and cliff, he became a unique magician, so that Haita, who had almost become his own grandfather during this period of time, could leave with peace of mind.
Haita, who felt that he could not live for long, was already thinking about whether he should truthfully tell Fulilian about the fact that he and Asher designed to deceive Fulilian in the end.
The Buried Fulian·Thousand Years to Present: Chapter 79 Even until the end of your life, I will protect you (3K)
Due to Ash's special nature, Haita was not sure how long he would take care of Fearon.
Therefore, before Fulilian left, he hoped that Philon would at least have the ability to keep up with one of the two, or that when he passed away, he could see that Philon had the ability to be self-reliant, so that he could leave with peace of mind. go.
After all, just as Philon regarded him as his grandfather, he also truly regarded the little life he met at the end of his life as his granddaughter.
His thoughts were basically clear to Ash, so looking at the weak and tired old man on the bed, he couldn't help but sigh:
"I know your wish, but you must have misunderstood something. I can't abandon her now... I can tell you clearly. In the end, if she takes a step further, she will basically be able to stand on her own. As an adult, If you can make a living, there won’t be much to worry about.”
"...To be honest, what is Philon in your eyes?" Haita asked a strange question very abruptly, which made him stunned for a moment: "Is Philon? A child, right? Otherwise, it's still... What could it be?”
It's true that even if Ash wants to think of the children he's seen since childhood as something else, it's really difficult.
"Haha... Indeed, in our eyes, that child has always been a child." Considering the actual situation, Haita couldn't help but laugh, but said with profound meaning: "But children will grow up, there will always be One day you will completely transform into a slim girl, but you will not grow old, it won’t take long... At least in appearance, you will become the same person.”
"It's just appearance, right?"
"If she could still regard you as her father when she was a child, but she grows up to be like you, can she really continue to see you like this? I think it should be very difficult, and what do you think?"
Ya Xiu's situation was very special, which made Haita couldn't help but sit up from the bed and put on a serious posture, as if a grandfather was holding the door for his granddaughter.
This strange attitude also made Ya Xiu wonder: "What do you think about every day? Of course it's my brother, right?"
"No blood relationship."
"That's the neighbor's big brother."
"The neighbor's big brother... takes care of himself from childhood to adulthood, what is that?"
"....Just wait for me to think about it."
"You can put this aside for now. She will look like she is in her twenties in the future. What about you?"
"The neighbor's younger brother? Oops! Don't think about so many messy things." He no longer wanted to worry about this problem anymore, so he waved his hand to interrupt Haita's strange speculation and said firmly:
"After all, I am also an elder. I believe that although she seems a little rebellious, she must respect me in her heart and treat me as an elder when she grows up."
"Even if she takes a step back, she thinks so... What about you? Haven't you always wanted to find a serious girl to watch shooting stars? Fearon is quite cute now, and she will definitely be cuter when she grows up, right?"
