Chapter 13: The Aggrieved Nine Thousand Years Old
The Thousand Years Palace was a magnificent palace.
At least it was more imposing than all the palaces Li Xianzhi had seen in Great Chu back then.
Li Xianzhi held his turtle son Xiao Xuan, carefully examining this palace. Turtle son Xiao Xuan, since recognizing Li Xianzhi, had been holding Li Xianzhi's hand and wouldn't let go, seemingly afraid that this father of his would leave him again.
Li Xianzhi was very doting on Xiao Xuan.
This companion who had accompanied him for an era, being able to see him in this lifetime, could be considered a consolation given to him by God.
Longevity is very lonely.
"Little Li, this palace is quite well-decorated." Li Xianzhi looked back at the Nine Thousand Years Old, who had been bowing and following behind him.
The Nine Thousand Years Old's current appearance made the eunuchs and palace maids who welcomed them drop their jaws. When had the majestic Nine Thousand Years Old ever been so humble in front of others?
Who is this person?
Everyone who witnessed this was guessing Li Xianzhi's identity.
"Returning to Master's words, these were all decorated by the people below, actually I don't like these. I prefer to follow Master, conquering the world, those days were called refreshing."
The Nine Thousand Years Old seemed to have fallen into some kind of memory, his face showing a hint of expectation.
Back then, he was just a small character, seeing his master in trouble, but could only watch, which was so sad. Even because of this, it left a thousand-year regret in his heart.
Back then, he saw his master surrounded by strong enemies at Zhenshen Pass, and could only retreat quietly, looking for an opportunity to bring the news out.
"Master, back then you wouldn't think I was escaping in the face of battle, would you?" The Nine Thousand Years Old looked at his master aggrievedly.
Since seeing that letter, this knot in the Nine Thousand Years Old's heart had become more and more unbearable. Fortunately, now that his master was in front of him, he wanted to untie this misunderstanding.
"Does this matter?" Li Xianzhi looked at the flowers in the palace, his face very calm.
Li Xianzhi didn't care about these things at all.
"Master, you have boundless supernatural powers, of course you can not care. But have you ever thought about how Little Li lived these years? I blamed myself all the time, blamed myself for not saving you, and for not fighting side by side with you. Can you understand this kind of pain?" The Nine Thousand Years Old, trembling all over, looked at Li Xianzhi excitedly.
The Nine Thousand Years Old seemed to be waiting for an answer.
"So what? In this world, there are always various deviations. Do you think all the misunderstandings caused by you need to be understood by others? You are a spy placed by the Shenwu Emperor beside me, did I dislike you, make things difficult for you? Little Li, I understand what you want to say, but now it has been a thousand years, what can be indelible in a thousand years of time? Why make yourself worry about it? Isn't it better to be free and easy?"
This Little Li was good at everything, but he was too stubborn and had too many thoughts. He wasn't as fun as his turtle son.
The Nine Thousand Years Old didn't speak for a long time; he was too aggrieved, never expecting the answer to be like this.
"Doesn't care, hahaha, doesn't care."
"Master, am I so dispensable in your heart?" The Nine Thousand Years Old was like an aggrieved child, stiffening his neck, trying hard not to look at his master.
"Father."
Xiao Xuan was a bit confused, he didn't know what the two were talking about. "Isn't today the happiest day? Little Li, why are you still crying?" Xiao Xuan pulled the Nine Thousand Years Old's clothes, hoping to get an answer from the Nine Thousand Years Old's mouth.
"You are the apple of Master's eye, of course you can sell well here. Hmph..." Like a child sulking, seeing another favored child, the Nine Thousand Years Old wanted to vent his anger on Xiao Xuan's green head.
"Father."
Xiao Xuan looked at Little Li angrily, he didn't know why Little Li would be like this, so he had to look at his father.
"Tsk tsk!"
Li Xianzhi was a bit speechless. Such a small matter, making such a scene. It seemed that this elder was really not easy to be.
"Little Li, you are also a person who has become the Nine Thousand Years Old. Do you still want Master to apologize to you personally?" Li Xianzhi looked at the sulking Nine Thousand Years Old with a smile.
Of course, Li Xianzhi knew the Nine Thousand Years Old's mood. Li Xianzhi was also well aware of his misunderstanding of him. However, he was so old, did he still have to apologize to a young man?
I don't know how this Nine Thousand Years Old is being done!
"Hey! Don't understand any human feelings, no wonder Great Chu is in a mess."
Li Xianzhi shook his head.
"Eh?" The Nine Thousand Years Old was completely stunned. Why was he so stupid.
Did he want Master to apologize to him?
"What are you stunned for, go. Master still has many things to ask you. Is this a place to talk? You are not afraid that these palace people will see your Nine Thousand Years Old's joke."
Li Xianzhi looked at the Nine Thousand Years Old reproachfully.
"Yes, yes, Master is right. Xiao Xuan, accompany Master in." The Nine Thousand Years Old was extremely excited at this moment, Master not only knew the hidden story of that year, but also acknowledged his identity.
A thousand years, the Nine Thousand Years Old felt that today's sunshine was the brightest day. The haze in his heart was dispelled without a trace.
Xiao Xuan was a bit angry, shook off the Nine Thousand Years Old's hand, looked at the Nine Thousand Years Old angrily, a pair of mung bean sesame eyes, trying hard to stare to the maximum: "Just scolded people, people don't want to be with you."
"Eh!"
"Xiao Xuan, just now it was the brother's fault, I will prepare delicious food for you later, okay? Brother has a lot of dragon carp here, let you eat enough."
The Nine Thousand Years Old coaxed Xiao Xuan gently.
Xiao Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard dragon carp.
"Really?"
"Definitely." The Nine Thousand Years Old smiled and touched Xiao Xuan's pale green head. This little thing looked cuter the more he looked at it.
"Great, eat dragon carp. I want to eat a big basin." Xiao Xuan used two short arms to draw a big circle.
"Truly a little foodie." Li Xianzhi looked at the excited Xiao Xuan dotingly.
Truly good!
A thousand years, or countless kalpas, this was the first time Li Xianzhi had personally experienced the warmth of friends and family.
Right, there is also Li Hongyu. If his daughter were also here, everything would be perfect.
"Little Li, I have a daughter in Dongjiang City, you send someone to pick her up."
Living a good life, he couldn't let his daughter continue to mess around in Dongjiang City.
"Master, you have a daughter?"
The Nine Thousand Years Old was a bit surprised, in his memory, his master never entered the female sex. And he had always warned him that color is a bone-scraping knife. However, the Nine Thousand Years Old felt that Master was worrying too much.
He was a eunuch.
"It's a long story, Master has a secret art called the Three Lives Body, you can just treat this as my one-life body."
