Riding the Pheonix Chapter 823: Canghai


Before you gave birth to me, I gave birth to you and you are already old.

You hate that I was born late, but I hate that you were born early.

……

Mingwei opened his eyes.

The sun shines through the window screen and onto the wall.

Dust danced in the light, and the noise of the market could be heard in the distance.

She lay quietly for a while, and before she could figure out where she was, there was the sound of "kick, kick, kick, kick" on the stairs outside, and someone tapped the door, "Senior sister! The sun is shining on your butt, why don't you get up! Master!" You just left, you are lazy! When Master comes back, I will definitely complain to him!"

After a while, without waiting for a response, there was a louder voice outside, "If you don't get up, I won't leave lunch for you!"

Mingwei slowly got a sense of reality and got up from the bed.

The furnishings of the house are very simple, with a bed, a cabinet, a table and a chair.

There was a dressing mirror on the table. She glanced at it and was stunned.

It is clearly a familiar appearance, but yet so unfamiliar.

……

Mingwei opened the door and slowly went down the stairs.

This is a very ordinary civilian courtyard, with bedrooms upstairs and a hall downstairs.

The sound of pots and pans clattering was heard in the kitchen. Not long after, a baby-faced young man came out with a plate. Seeing her standing in a daze, he said, "What are you doing standing there? Why don't you wash your face?"

Then while serving dishes and chopsticks, he babbled, "Which girl is like you? Can you dress up first when you get up? What does it look like with disheveled hair? No wonder I can't get married even at my old age."

Amidst his nagging, Mingwei silently washed her face and combed her hair.

"Here!" He handed over a pair of chopsticks.

Mingwei took it, looked at the young man in front of him, and called softly, "Junior brother..."

The other party shivered, rubbed his arms and said, "Don't scream so disgustingly, I feel like I'm going to be unlucky."

Mingwei was silent and changed his name to "Xiao Wu."

Xiao Wu said "hmm", gave her two slices of bacon, and said, "You got up too late, so we had to eat breakfast and lunch together. If you are hungry in the afternoon, go buy something to eat on the street."

"Oh." Mingwei took two bites, and it turned out to be a familiar taste.

The master's skills are mediocre, and she is even less good, so her junior brother has always been in charge.

She thought for a while and asked, "Where is the master?"

"Going to Mang Mountain." Xiao Wu glanced at her, "Are you still angry with Master? You don't want to call me dad again."

Mingwei was stunned for a moment, some memories emerged in his mind.

Xiao Wu continued, "Senior Sister, please be considerate of Master. If you can get back in time, how could you not go and pay homage to Master?"

Dad...Mother...

Mingwei had mixed feelings and said slowly, "I don't blame him..."

"I just want him to take more care of himself! You, father and daughter, are exactly the same. You always refuse to speak clearly, as if you will give up if you say more than one word."

Xiao Wu finished the meal quickly, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "It's up to you to wash the dishes! Senior sister, don't be lazy! I'm going to practice."

Mingwei finished her meal slowly and put away the dishes when she heard someone outside shouting, "Your Majesty has returned to the palace! Come on, let's go see the Holy Master."

She was stunned for a moment, threw down the dish towel, walked out and followed the flow of people to Ping'an Street.

This life is similar but different from the original one.

Although Master didn’t have any more family members or people, he still embarked on this path. At the age of forty, he saved his mother and formed a fate.

He has been living until now. Although his mother has passed away, the two have been in love for more than ten years.

In this life, she has a father and a mother.

There was a huge flow of people and they were blocked by the Forbidden Army.

The ceremonial guard of the holy driver came slowly, Mingwei couldn’t take his eyes away.

The people shouted "Long live, long live, long live."

Perhaps moved by such enthusiasm, the person inside ordered something, and a chamberlain rolled up the gauze curtain on the car.

An old man wearing a dragon robe smiled and waved to both sides.

The people cheered louder.

Mingwei watched intently, without blinking.

Chang'an, she recognized it, this was her Chang'an.

He is already... so old.

Ming Wei turned over to find the memory.

In the twenty-fifth year of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor died.

Prince Jiang Yi succeeded to the throne and changed his reign to Yongping.

It is now the thirty-ninth year of Yongping, so he is naturally old.

After being the emperor for so many years, the world is at peace, which shows that he is living a good life.

He remembered her words and became a happy person.

The holy driver passed by slowly and the crowd dispersed.

Mingwei did not go back, but walked casually, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar Yunjing City.

That was the Ming Dynasty... Ming Sheng later passed the exam and helped support the family again. As the eldest son, her master did not take the imperial examination route. Instead, he followed Ning Xiu around the world and became the next generation of fortune teller.

After Ming Sheng and his wife passed away, their family rarely returned to Ming Mansion. When I arrived in Yunjing, I rented another house to live in.

There is also the Ji Mansion not far away.

It has been so many years. Mr. Ji and his wife have passed away long ago. The eldest cousin Ji Ling... has also passed away. His son Xiaobao has now resigned from office and is working as an old man at home.

Time is really like a dream, the time it takes to open and close your eyes changes.

She was in a daze when a man came out of Ji Mansion, wearing the Taoist uniform of Xuandu Temple, cursing as he walked, "These **** kids, do you know what it means to respect your elders? Why don't you just eat more at home... No, more How many days have you lived here? They actually kicked me out! You said that you are afraid of ruining your cultivation if you are too exposed to the world of mortals. Bah! Have you ever seen me with such a white hair and childish face? I won’t live longer than them! Oops!"

The old Taoist was about to curse, but when he saw it was Mingwei, he immediately burst out laughing, "Hey, isn't this the girl from Ming Xiaozheng's family? How did you get here? It's better to meet by chance than to invite. Come on, let's go have a drink!"

Mingwei looked at his face and uttered with difficulty, "Fifth...uncle, I was just passing by."

"This is even more fateful, let's go, let's go..."

After being dragged for a drink for no apparent reason, Mingwei sent away his fifth uncle who smelled of alcohol and held his forehead.

Ji Xiaowu, Ji Xiaowu, you have lived for more than eighty years, why haven’t you made any progress...

Slowly returning home, Xiao Wu gritted his teeth and washed the dishes.

Seeing her come in, he said angrily, "Senior sister, where are you washing the dishes as promised? Where have you gone?"

Mingwei was stunned and rolled up his sleeves guiltily, "I just went out to watch the excitement..."

"Do you smell like drunk after watching the fun? Okay, okay, I'll take a shower while you go."

Mingwei stood aside and watched.

"What else is there? Just go back to bed if you have nothing to do." Xiao Wu no longer had any expectations for her.

Mingwei said "Oh", took two steps, suddenly turned around and asked him, "Did you say Master went to Mang Mountain?"

"Yes!"

"Why go to Mang Mountain?"

"It is said that one part of the late emperor's mausoleum is broken~IndoMTL.com~ Let's check it out."

"The late Emperor..." Mingwei muttered and suddenly ran upstairs.

Xiao Wu heard a "crackling" sound upstairs, and Mingwei quickly rushed down again, carrying a big baggage on his back.

"Hey, senior sister, what are you doing?"

Mingwei opened the door and said, "I'm going to find Master!" Then he ran away.

Xiao Wu rushed to the door and only had time to see her back flashing past the alley, stamping his feet angrily.

"Who are they! One or two, both are weird. Senior brother is like this, senior sister is like this, why am I so miserable?"

He shook his head and sighed, closed the door, and continued to wash the dishes resignedly.
