C5 (2/2)
”The immortal master said that if my grandson doesn't leave, my aunt and uncle will be in danger. My grandson cannot stay!”
”Grandpa, grandma, I thought that I would leave the village when I grew up and look for my family. I didn't expect that I would leave so soon!”
Even if the two elders were dead and were unable to hear his words, he would still tell them about the immortal master's purpose in coming and adopting them.
”Grandmother, you have just passed away. Your grandson hasn't even gone to honor your filial piety and is about to leave. Your grandson is unfilial!”
”Grandmother, you said that you wanted me to find my family myself. Immortal master came, but he wasn't my relative. He also didn't tell my son. Also, I was told to personally find out about my son's background.”
”Grandmother, I promised you that I would find my name!”
His grandmother's final words had been given to him by heaven, and he dared not forget them in the slightest.
If the immortal master could find him and even take him away, then he must know about his background. Although the immortal master knew about his background, the immortal master was not his relative. If he wanted to find his family, he had to leave the village.
He could have directly inquired Immortal Master about his own background, but Immortal Master had the same intentions as his grandmother, and wanted him to find out for himself.
Since his parents had given birth to him, why did they want to abandon him? Only by finding his parents would he be able to get a clear understanding of the situation.
In order to fulfill his grandmother's dying wish, solve the mystery in his heart, and not bring disaster to the village, he decided to leave with the immortal master.
”Grandpa, grandma, this grandson truly can't bear to part with the villagers, much less all of you. This grandson will definitely come visit you once I've found my name and family!”
”Also, this grandson's breast name was chosen by all of you. Even if this grandson were to regain his baby name, this grandson's breast name will never change, and Heaven's Gift will always be your most beloved grandson.”
”Grandpa, grandma, grandchild, I'm sorry, but I can't guard your souls. Grandson is unfilial!”
After kowtowing nine times to his grandparents' tombstones, Tian Ci kneeled down for a moment before leaving. Looking at his grandparents' tombstones made him want to cry, but he resisted the urge to cry.
He went back home and found the rest of the golden threads.
Previously, the golden silk was thin and soft, and was divided into two parts, one part for living expenses, the other part for his own wife.
Now that he had to leave the village, there were still many golden threads remaining. It was inconvenient to take them away, and it would be a waste to leave them at home.
When he arrived at the village entrance again, the immortal master had still not left. He was still waiting for him, and the village head gathered all the villagers to send him off.
”Village Head Uncle, my grandparents will help me get married.”
”Today, I'm leaving with Immortal Teacher. I won't be able to use it in the future, so I won't use it at home. It's a pity, please give it to uncle and aunt!”
Tian Ci came with two bags, and placed one of them in the hands of the village chief.
Although the package was small, the golden threads inside were very thin and soft, yet they were very valuable. Any item that was sold off would last the villagers several years.
”How can we do that? ”Little gift, keep these items, I can use them on the road!”
A beggar came to the village, abandoned the gift of heaven, and left. Everyone thought that the person was a beggar, and when two old men brought out a gem, they told themselves to go to the city to exchange some seashells, and the village chief finally believed that the person was not a beggar.
At that time, the amount of money a gem could be exchanged for was enough to feed the villagers for several years. Looking at the package in their hands, they could imagine the value of the items inside.
”Village Chief, Uncle, there are too many of these things. I can't take them away with me.”
”Besides, follow the immortal master. I believe the immortal master won't let me freeze and starve. Please rest assured that I will accept it. This is a gift from the heavens for all of you!”
His aunt and uncle were simple and honest; they definitely wouldn't want his things. In order to convince the village head to accept them, he could only rely on the immortal master's prestige in the village head's heart.
Blessed with generosity, filial piety, kindness, understanding and sincerity, Fuyun approved of this act and would not blame him for borrowing his prestige.
He had long since made arrangements for his future life.
Even if Tian Ci did not give the villagers any of the treasures, he would not allow Tian Ci to bring the treasures along with her.
”If all of you truly consider this' bestowal 'to be your own child, then don't refuse it anymore. After all, the fact that he left all of you with this treasure is also part of his intentions.”
”However, the treasure is hidden. Unless you have no other choice, don't use it. It's better to keep it!”
Fu Yun's words were very useful. No matter what he said, the Village Chief would not dare to refute him.
The villagers were simple, they had never traveled far and did not understand the dangers of the martial arts world. They suggested that the village head accept gifts from the heavens, so he naturally had the responsibility to remind the village head to keep his wealth hidden.
”Thank you for your guidance, immortal master. We will definitely remember your words!”
After Fu Yun gave his advice and guidance to the village chief, he stood to the side and did not speak any further. He waited for Tian Ci to say goodbye to the villagers.
He was most afraid that he would not be able to return in a short period of time. He was worried that no one would be able to clean up the weeds on his grandparents' graves. Before he left, he would have to ask the Village Chief for help.
”Village Head Uncle, after I leave, I don't know when I'll be able to come back. Grandpa and Grandmother's tomb needs to be cleared of weeds every year. I'll have to trouble you during my absence!”
Every year, the village would organize a great labor, to clear the weeds at every grave in the cemetery. In the past, the heaven's bestowal would be small, but the village head would not let him participate, so this year's great labor had yet to begin.
As a result, Providence did not yet know that there was such a ”great labor” in the village.
”The heavens have bestowed upon us, in our village, there is always great work done every year, especially to clear the graves of our ancestors. Rest assured!”
With the big labor project in the village, there was someone responsible for clearing the weeds at the grave of his grandparents, and Blessed One was able to leave without worry.
”Thank you, Village Head Uncle!”
