MTL - Warm Fuzzies-Chapter 123
It was the figure of a woman.
She was wearing a simple long skirt, but she had the aura of a fairy all over her body, so pure that it almost stopped people from approaching her easily.
As the white mist gradually dispersed, the outline of the woman's facial features gradually became clear, and Sydney recognized her at a glance.
It's Fairy Shaoyin.
Her appearance has basically remained the same as when she was in the mortal world, and she is still familiar with Sydney, but because of the sculpting of the fairy spirit, she looks more dusty and noble.
Xue Li clenched the hem of her skirt, but she didn't dare to go forward for a while, and even if she did, she didn't know what to call her.
fairy? Xianjun? Master? aunt?
Calling "Fairy" or "Xianjun" feels too unfamiliar, and it will make Sydney's heart ache; calling "Master" or "Aunt", is afraid that Fairy Shaoyin will feel too close. Lin Shao, who is not a mortal, is always afraid of having the intention of climbing high.
Xueli was so nervous that her calves trembled, she opened her mouth and then squeezed her lips tightly, but at the moment she was hesitating, Fairy Shaoyin seemed to have come to her senses, frowned slightly in pain, and opened her eyes in the still white mist. He opened his eyes.
Seeing Fairy Shaoyin open her eyes, Xueli became more and more at a loss.
But at this time, Fairy Shaoyin woke up from nearly forty years of ups and downs in the mortal life, her head was dizzy, and she still felt in a trance.
After parting from Xinglinfeng and Xueli, she traveled all over Kyushu, looking for various herbal medicines that have never been discovered in the world, and curing various intractable diseases. Finally, when she was full of thousands of spiritual herbs, she became enlightened in the way of medicine At the same time, there was a change in her mind, and the memory of nearly ten thousand years came back. When she recovered, she had recovered her fairy body and returned here.
Until now, she still had some cognitive confusion in which the two memories collided with each other. After a while, the eight thousand-year fairy memory finally took the upper hand.
But when she regained her spirit of immortal monarch, mortal affairs made her stagnate again.
Before she went down to earth, she thought it was just a stereotyped fantasy dream. It wasn't until she woke up that nearly forty years of memories suddenly crashed into her mind like a picture, and she realized that there was a lot of information. When she wakes up, there are many things that she did only ordinary and didn't notice before, and it was only at this time that her heart suddenly shook.
Sydney, Little Fairyland, Nine-Tailed Fox, the jade pendant on Sydney's body, "Looking for the Moon" she sang...
Shaoyin couldn't believe that she would meet Xueli in the mortal world, even if she was asked to come here a hundred times, she would never expect such a thing to happen in the world. She raised her head at this moment, and saw Xue Li who was waiting for her not far away, but hesitated to go forward.
Looking at the girl raised by him at this time, Shaoyin shook his head severely.
She said in a daze, "You..."
At this time, Xueli also stepped forward in fear, and several titles lingered on her lips, and finally she whispered: "Shaoyin Yuanjun..."
Before Xueli finished speaking, Fairy Shaoyin who had just returned to the sky knocked on the door lightly and scratched, saying, "'Auntie' doesn't sound good, why change it? It sounds strange and awkward."
"Oh."
Sydney was stunned.
But Shaoyin's words dispelled all the doubts in her heart, and when Xueli came back to her senses, she was very excited, went up to her happily, and called, "Auntie!"
Sydney snuggled into her aunt's arms, wagging her tail happily.
Shaoyin hugged her and patted her head, but after a while, she held Xueli's face again.
Looking at Xueli's appearance, Shaoyin was reminded of so many memories that were too old to be touched easily, she was almost lost in sight, and whispered: "Xueli..."
"Ok?"
Xue Li felt that her aunt's eyes were a little strange, and the voice calling her name was also erratic, so she couldn't help but tilt her head.
She couldn't wait to say: "Auntie, I miss you so much during this time! I've heard Zilan say that you are the transformation of the ancient snow lotus and the Nine Heavens Doctor Immortal! So when we heard the news of your return to heaven, we came here See you! These days, Little Wonderland has moved to Jiuchongtian, but we still left a door for you at the original location. And..."
Sydney hesitated for a moment, but still felt that she should have told her aunt earlier these words.
Xue Li hesitated and said: "I'm sorry, Auntie, I visited your Snow Lotus Peak rashly before due to some reasons. The fairy boy guarding the gate has repeatedly told me not to enter the inner palace, but I was still careless..."
"No need to say much."
Shaoyin interrupted Xueli's apology, she had already returned to the position of fairy monarch, and she seemed steady and calm about everything.
But from Sydney's point of view, the aunt seemed unexpectedly not angry about it.
Shaoyin looked around and saw that although only Xueli and Zilan were there, it was still Dongtiantai after all, so she said, "This is not a place to talk, let's change the place. I also have something to say to you, it will be a long story , how about we go back to Snow Lotus Peak first?"
Xueli nodded of course, and then naturally went to hold Zilan's hand.
On the other hand, Zi Lan who brought Xue Li over was a little hesitant, and paused when she was pulled, as if she didn't know if she should not intervene in the topic between Xue Li and Shaoyin in her own situation.
At this moment, Shaoyin glanced at him, and then said plainly: "You can come together too."
"Mist?"
Sydney tugged on his sleeve.
Zi Lan came to her senses and hurriedly said, "Thank you Fairy Shaoyin."
Only then did I follow up.
Zilan and Xueli came by fairy car, so they simply took the fairy car to Snow Lotus Peak.
Fairy Shaoyin came back from this rooftop because it is relatively close to Xuelian Peak, and the three of them had already arrived at Xuelian Peak before it was dark.
"Master Yuanjun is back!"
"Master Yuan Jun is back!"
When Licorice and Danggui saw Fairy Shaoyin coming back, their attitudes were very different from last time. They were originally guarding the entrance of the fairy palace motionless, but when they saw Fairy Shaoyin get off the fairy car, they immediately greeted her in pleasant surprise, and even became more enthusiastic about Xueli and Zilan.
"Does Master Yuanjun have any luggage on him?"
"Master Yuanjun, do you need to eat and take a shower?"
"We clean the Immortal Palace every day, and it is now clean!"
Licorice and Danggui circled around Fairy Shaoyin, as if they couldn't stop trying to move something for her. Fairy Shaoyin patted the heads of the two of them, and said: "Go and clean up the tea room, Licorice, go make a pot of good tea, I have something to talk to Young Master Xueli and Zilan."
"yes!"
Licorice nodded obediently and happily went to make tea.
Shaoyin turned her head and said to Xueli and Zilan, "Come with me."
After a while, the three sat together in the tea room.
The last time I came to Sydney was to read medical books, because I violated the convention and went into the inner room, I was faintly disgusted by licorice, Sydney didn't even know that there was such a place in the fairy palace, so I couldn't help looking around freshly. She is curious about every trace of her aunt's previous life.
Ever since my aunt returned to Jiuchongtian, she suddenly became the Fairy Shaoyin that Sydney had heard about from other people, her gestures were indescribably calm and elegant.
Xueli can still see the similarities between her and the mortal world, but she still can't stand a little restraint in front of such an aunt.
Fairy Shaoyin took a sip of tea and waved to Xue Li, "Little baby, come and show me."
"Aww!"
Xueli understood what her aunt meant, and transformed into a little nine-tailed fox, dragging her tail, ran towards her aunt, and jumped onto her lap!
Shaoyin hugged her with a smile, touched her head and ears.
"Woo woo woo..."
Sydney rolled comfortably after being kneaded, making a small grunt from her throat.
Shaoyin hugged Xue Li and rubbed it for a while, and the two of them let go of the strangeness that came from the mortal world to the fairy world after a long separation.
Shaoyin put Xue Li back, and asked her to run back to the seat and turn back into a human body to sit down.
Xue Li paused, and tried to call out inquiringly: "Auntie..."
Looking at her face, Shaoyin said emotionally, "It's been a long time."
But then, Shaoyin stretched out his hand, touched her face with a long meaning, and said in a daze: "It really looks like..."
She shook her head, and said again: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen in the world?"
Shaoyin couldn't help but think of her first encounter with Xueli.
A dark rain curtain, a gloomy torrential rain.
A lonely little white fox in Sydney, lying faintly in a bamboo basket. She was also alone, holding a broken oil umbrella in her hand.
She thought about leaving the little fox behind, but she couldn't bear it and turned her head back.
She has completely forgotten the past in the mortal world... If she had left like that at that time, how regretful she would be now?
Shaoyin straightened Xue Li's hair that had fallen to her temples, and sat upright, before she said: "Xue Li, I have something I should tell you."
When Xueli heard this, she couldn't help but sit upright with Zilan, knowing that her aunt must have something very important to say, so she was afraid to stop for a word.
Shaoyin asked: "You just said that you accidentally entered the inner palace, didn't you?"
Sydney nodded in shame.
Shaoyin asked, "What did you see?"
In fact, Xueli can't be regarded as having entered the inner palace, it's just that the little tiger knocked over a box, and both Xueli and Zilan saw the contents of the box.
Xue Li truthfully recounted what she saw, then straightened up and asked boldly, "Auntie, are you—?"
Shaoyin sighed softly, and said: "You don't need to panic, even if you haven't seen those, this is something I should tell you. Especially you, Sydney, I can't hide it from you."
She said: "That's right. I once raised a little white fox in Snow Lotus Peak, and I did some things against the law of heaven."
Shaoyin paused for a moment, then stared at Xueli, and continued, "You both look alike. I think she should be your mother."
Sydney's heart beat uncontrollably.
When she smelled something similar to herself on those little toys, Xueli thought about it, but she couldn't be sure. Now that this idea was confirmed, she unconsciously became nervous.
Sydney asked, "What's going on?"
Fairy Shaoyin paused for a moment, looked at the swaying tea in the cup, and said with nostalgia after a long time: "The story must start at least eight thousand years ago..."
She closed her eyes and let the picture scroll of memories slowly unfold in her mind.
Eight thousand years ago, Shaoyin was still a nonsense ice lotus on Xuelian Peak.
She was born in the ice pond since ancient times. Since flowers have no concept of time, the long years seem to her in the blink of an eye.
The snow lotus like her that grows in the cold ice pond on the top of the snow mountain is a very precious medicinal material. Just like the spiritual grass and fairy medicine she usually collected and planted with Sydney, their spiritual plants are transformed by spiritual energy. Although they have spiritual energy, if there is no special good luck, they will not be able to develop spiritual wisdom or transform. It is even more impossible to become a fairy.
The same is true for Shaoyin.
She is the one born on the highest peak, the most effective medicine, and the hardest to reach. Because of this, in the past two or three thousand years, the immortals picking herbs came and went, but they still failed to pick her. She grew into a huge and beautiful snow lotus with luxuriant branches and leaves, which can be called the most precious treasure in the snow mountain. There is a rumor that getting one of her petals can cure all diseases.
But even so, she still has no consciousness, no thinking, just a special kind of rare treasure, like other medicine lotuses, quietly waiting for people to pick in the cold wind on the top of the snow mountain.
The change was only one day thousands of years ago.
Shaoyin still remembers her first memory.
It was a little white fox, which climbed up the steep mountain in the face of the wind and snow, wrapped it in leaves and carefully guarded the drop of spiritual spring it brought up, and gently dripped it on her lotus heart.
At that moment, Shaoyin opened her spiritual consciousness and truly became Linglian.
With her ignorant spiritual knowledge, she saw the little white fox wagging its tail happily at her, and it was turning around happily.
From that moment, Shaoyin understood that her whole life would be connected with the white fox, they had formed a karma from the beginning, and one day, she would be needed to repay the favor.
