Sha Monk nodded: "It's in a place called Ningyu Village."

"Then I'll go find him right now."

"Wait, I'll go with you Go."

Just when the Hedgehog Spirit couldn't wait to go find the Lion Spirit, Sha Monk stopped him and planned to go together.

The reason for this is that Sand Monk didn’t understand what Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva meant by ‘creating things to make people’, so he planned to go together to find out.

Soon, the two came to Ningyu Village together.

This village is located in the south of Nanfangbuzhou, surrounded by mountains and rivers. There is a big mountain behind the village called Lijiashan.

Most of the villagers here make a living by fishing, and some villagers make a living by hunting.

The Hedgehog Spirit and Sha Seng found Ningyu Village and did not enter the village. Instead, they stood on the top of Lijia Mountain and overlooked the entire village.

There is no scent of wild beasts in the entire Lijia Mountain. At most, you can only see some birds, snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

When he felt that the village was peaceful and there was no trace of evil spirit, the hedgehog spirit suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

The hedgehog spirit turned to look at Sha Seng and asked anxiously: "Master, is my husband really reincarnated in this place? Why can't I feel his presence?"

At this time, Sha Monk seemed to have somewhat understood what Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva meant by "good fortune tricks people".

He pointed to the village at the foot of the mountain and said: "Maybe we can find him here."

"Village?" The hedgehog spirit was very confused, how could the monster Will you live in the village with the villagers?

If the identity of the monster is discovered by the villagers, it will definitely cause great panic, and a large number of monster hunters will be attracted.

So generally speaking, monsters will never hide among the crowd.

But in order to find the lion spirit, the hedgehog spirit still went to search with the attitude of giving it a try.

When you enter the village, you will feel the peaceful atmosphere of the village.

The two of them walked from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, not even letting go of the passing dogs, but scanning them with their spiritual sense for fear of missing them.

Soon, the hedgehog spirit had almost searched the entire village, but there was still no trace of the lion spirit.

Just when the hedgehog thought there was no hope, a figure passed by him.

That was a handsome young man, carrying a bundle of firewood on his shoulders, andWearing coarse linen clothes, his figure is thin, his forehead is covered with beads of sweat, and his face is filled with smiles.

"Mom, this is the firewood I chopped down the mountain today. I should be able to sell it for a lot of money."

The young man walked towards a very simple house and was greeted by a woman. He came out with a towel in his hand, wiping the hot sweat on the young man's forehead with a distressed look on his face.

"Tiancai, I've worked hard for you during this period. If your father hadn't been in poor health, you wouldn't have had to wake up early and stay up late to cut firewood and sell it for money."

But the young man didn't. Without the slightest complaint, he shook his head and said, "It's okay, mother. Once I use the money from selling firewood to buy medicine, my father's illness will be cured. When my father's illness is cured, our family will be well."< br />
"Okay, okay, come into the house quickly, I left lunch for you, go and eat it quickly."

With that said, the woman pulled the boy into the house.

The hedgehog looked at this scene, his pupils were shaking, his eyes were very complicated, he couldn't stop shaking his head, and murmuring.

"This is impossible, impossible...how could this happen!"

Then, the hedgehog spirit ran towards Lijiashan with red eyes.

The Sha Monk sighed helplessly, shook his head and said: "Oh, it's really a trick of fate."

At this time, the Sha Monk had completely understood the meaning of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. That sentence.

At this time, the hedgehog spirit was hiding at the foot of the mountain, sobbing secretly.

The moment he saw the young man, the hedgehog spirit recognized that the man was the reincarnation of the lion spirit.

The reason why the Hedgehog Spirit was so sad was because she did not see half of the pure energy flowing from the other person's body, which meant that the other person was an ordinary mortal who couldn't be more ordinary.

Because the lion spirit did not do any bad things in his previous life, the reincarnation of heaven made him become a mortal in this life.

Since ancient times, there have been differences between humans and demons. If humans and demons are forced to get together, one party will encounter a disaster.

Throughout history, no matter which relationship between a human-monster, a human-fairy, or a human-ghost falls in love, both parties will definitely encounter catastrophe.

The hedgehog spirit himself is not afraid. After all, he is a monster and has a long life.

But that’s not necessarily the case for Li Tiancai. He is just a mortal, and any natural or man-made disaster can kill him.

The hedgehog spirit is unwilling to ruin the other person’s life and destiny for his own selfish desires.

Later, Sha Monk found the hedgehog spirit hiding at the foot of the mountain and asked: "What are your plans next?"

The hedgehog spiritWiping the tears on his face, he looked in the direction of Li Tiancai with reluctance and said, "I plan to live in seclusion in Lijiashan, silently watching him get married and start a family, and live a happy life."

After hearing this, Sha Monk admired the spirit of the hedgehog spirit in sacrificing for love.

It is already very difficult to give up someone you love deeply, but to have to guard that person silently and watch that person spend their life with someone else is a pain that ordinary people cannot bear.

"Master, thank you for helping me find the reincarnation of the lion spirit. When his life is over, the little girl will go to find you personally and spend the rest of her life to repay your kindness."

After saying that, the hedgehog spirit bowed deeply to Sha Seng.

Seeing that the Hedgehog Spirit had made up his mind, Sha Monk said nothing more, but handed the other person a Buddhist bead and told him: "If you have difficulties in the future, you can use this Buddhist bead to call him. I, I will appear when the time comes."

After saying that, Sha Monk left on the clouds.

Although Sha Monk left Ningyu Village, he still paid attention to the hedgehog spirit from time to time.

After that, the hedgehog spirit did not bother Li Tiancai anymore, but built a simple residence on the mountain and silently guarded him.

Perhaps it was God’s will that allowed the fate of these two people, who had nothing to do with each other, to intertwine.

That year, Li Tiancai was twenty years old, and he still went to the mountains to cut firewood to support his family as usual.

But that day, because of the rain, the mountain road was much slipperier than usual.

While going down the mountain, Li Tiancai was eager to go home, so he accidentally slipped and fell into the ravine. As a result, his legs were broken and he was unable to walk.

It took a lot of effort for Li Tiancai to climb out of the ravine.

When he came out, it was already dark and he couldn't see the road in the mountains at all, but he saw a faint light not far away.

Li Tiancai crawled in the direction of the light.

When I climbed to the light, I realized that it was a very simple small hut.

"Strange, when did there be an extra hut here?" Li Tiancai tried to shout twice inside: "Is there anyone there?"

"... "

There was no response from the room, only a weak oil lamp flickering in the air.

At this time, Li Tiancai was in so much pain that he was a little confused. The cold sweat all over his body almost made his coarse linen clothes wet. However, out of politeness, he continued to shout.

　"Is there anyone...Help me..."

　"..."

There was still someone in the room who responded.

The humidity in the mountains in the middle of the night is extremely heavy, and the temperature is also dropping sharply. If you were in the wild, you would be cold to death, if not painful.

Li Tiancai called several times without getting a response, so he had no choice but to open the door. Seeing no one inside, he wondered, is this a house where a farmer lives temporarily in the mountains?

After thinking of this, Li Tiancai climbed into the hut without worrying about anything else.

After his whole body entered the house, Li Tiancai could no longer hold on and fainted.

About half an hour later, the hedgehog who went out to look for food returned to his hut.

When he opened the door, he saw Li Tiancai lying on the ground. The hedgehog spirit quickly dropped the food in his hand, rushed to Li Tiancai, and patted his back.

"Hello, Li Tiancai? What's wrong with you? Li Tiancai?!"

After calling several times, the other party did not respond. After scanning with his spiritual consciousness, he found the other party's legs. Broken bones.

The hedgehog spirit moved Li Tiancai to the bed and used his own energy to transfer to the other person to relieve the other person's pain.

But Hedgehog Jing’s cultivation was really limited and he could not heal Li Tiancai’s legs at all. Seeing Li Tiancai’s painful expression, Hedgehog Jing felt really distressed.

Looking at Li Tiancai in pain, the hedgehog spirit was extremely conflicted.

Should we keep him here or send him home?

However, if the other party is sent home, Li Tiancai's family background will definitely not be able to heal the other party's leg injury.

If not treated properly, Li Tiancai is very likely to become permanently disabled.

After much thought, the hedgehog spirit decided to leave Li Tiancai in the hut temporarily.

But the hedgehog spirit has no medical skills, no money, and his cultivation is not enough to cure the opponent's leg injury.

Just when the hedgehog spirit was still worried, he suddenly remembered that there was someone else who could definitely help him.

The hedgehog spirit then sent a message to Sha Monk.

"Master, I'm sorry to disturb you so late. I wonder if you have any way to cure the leg injury?"

"Sha Monk received the message and looked confused and curious. Asked: "Are you being targeted by your enemy again?"

The hedgehog bit his lower lip, looked at Li Tiancai who was in great pain on the bed, and responded:

"No, Li Tiancai's legs were broken. He somehow ended up in my hut, and I couldn't bear to send him home. With his family situation, he definitely couldn't be cured, so I thought... "

Sha Seng smiled, and could see through the other person's mind at a glance, and replied: "Do you want to help him heal yourself?"

"Yes." The hedgehog nodded. , said firmly.

"Well, I will tell you the method, please remember it."

"Master, please tell me."

Hedgehog Jing tore off a piece of cloth from his body and bit his finger, always ready to record it.

"First, find two wooden boards to fix his legs, and then find some herbs..."

"Well, okay."

As Sha Monk spoke, Hedgehog Jing memorized it, not daring to miss a single word, for fear that if some details were missed, Li Tiancai’s legs would become useless.

If the blood on your finger is not enough, you can immediately add another sip without feeling any pain.

Within a moment, a piece of cloth was densely covered with handwriting written in blood.

"...The above are the methods for treating leg injuries. As long as you don't make mistakes, his leg will be healed in less than three months."

"Three months? !” The hedgehog spirit said in surprise: “Does it take so long? We monsters only need a few days at most.”

The Drifting Monk was slightly speechless, but he still took the trouble to explain: “He is a mortal. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal a muscle and a bone, and three months is considered a quick recovery."

"Well, thank you, Master, for your help. I won't bother you, little lady."
>
After removing the sound transmission, the hedgehog looked at Li Tiancai lying on the bed and murmured softly: "Three months... Doesn't that mean he will stay with me for three months?"
/>
The hedgehog spirit didn’t know whether to be happy or worried at this time.

Although I really hope that I can fall in love with each other, it is difficult not to have feelings when a man and a woman are alone in the same room.

But if the other party is sent back, there is a possibility of being disabled.

The hedgehog spirit was extremely entangled in her heart, and in the end she simply gave up.

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time."

Immediately, the hedgehog spirit followed the method taught by Sha Seng to help Li Tiancai treat the wound and fix it with a wooden board. legs.

After treating the other party's injuries, he walked out of the hut again and went deep into the mountains to find the needed medicinal materials.

Fortunately, Lijiashan CapitalThe source is abundant and all the needed medicinal materials can be found. In addition, the hedgehog spirit is a monster, so even if the medicinal materials grow on the cliffs, they can be easily collected.

After picking all the required medicinal materials, they crushed them all according to the method taught by Sha Monk, bandaged them, and fed them with medicine.

After everything was taken care of, a layer of fish belly white lighted up outside the window.

After working hard all night, the hedgehog spirit was so tired that his limbs were limp, so he lay down on the edge of the bed to rest for a while, quietly guarding Li Tiancai.

Gradually, the hedgehog spirit felt a wave of sleepiness coming over him. He slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

At noon, Li Tiancai opened his eyes dimly.

When he found himself lying on the bed, Li Tiancai was a little surprised. Then he turned around and looked so frightened that he almost jumped up from the bed.

"Why is there a woman?"

Li Tiancai huddled in the corner of the bed, quietly looking at the woman beside the bed.

"Who is she? Why do I feel like I have seen her before?" Li Tiancai murmured softly.

When I looked down again, I realized that my leg had been bandaged.

Li Tiancai looked at the hedgehog spirit next to him again and guessed: "Did she help me deal with the leg injury?"

As he said this, Li Tiancai came up and looked carefully Examining the appearance of the hedgehog spirit.

She has a beautiful face, her face is as white and tender as a shelled egg, her curled eyelashes tremble slightly, and her lips are bright red, very charming.

At this moment, the hedgehog's eyelids twitched twice, and he slowly opened his eyes. The two people's eyes met, and the atmosphere was weird.

Li Tiancai immediately felt extremely embarrassed, put his head back, and hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, girl, I don't mean to be frivolous to you, I just see that you look familiar and want to get closer."< br />
“I didn’t mean to break into your residence, I was really helpless.”

“The girl saved my life, and Li has nothing to repay. If the girl If you mind, I will go back now."

"But girl, you must give me a chance to repay my kindness and tell me her name."

Seeing Li Tiancai's incoherent expression , the hedgehog spirit couldn't help but smile, and said: "You can just call me Xiaowei."

"You can't walk with your legs now, so you can stay here to recuperate."

Looking at the beautiful smile of the hedgehog spirit, Li Tiancai was fascinated for a while and did not reply for a long time.

Being stared at by the other party, the hedgehog became a little embarrassed, lowered his head and said shyly: "Am I ugly? Are you looking at me like this?"

Realizing that he was a little rude, Li Tiancai waved his hands repeatedly and blurted out: "No, no, girl, you are very beautiful, like a fairy. You feel as if you were my wife in the previous life."

After saying this After saying that, I felt that I was very frivolous, and quickly waved my hand to explain: "No, no, don't get me wrong, girl, I mean... I feel that you look familiar..."

Looking at Li Tiancai Looking at a loss, the hedgehog couldn't help laughing, covering his mouth and smiling: "Okay, I know what you mean. Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

The hedgehog stood up after saying this. , handed the fruits picked yesterday to Li Tiancai.

Li Tiancai took a piece of fruit in a daze and put it into his mouth without looking at it. The next second he spit out the fruit with a ferocious look on his face.

Li Tiancai looked at the fruit spit in the palm of his hand and asked doubtfully: "What kind of fruit is this?"

The hedgehog spirit replied without thinking: "Pinecone, what's wrong? ? Isn’t it delicious? I’ve always eaten this.”

Li Tiancai smiled, looked at the hedgehog with some sympathy and said: “I thought my life was hard enough. I didn't expect that the girl's life was more difficult than mine, and she had to eat pine cones every day."

The hedgehog spirit was confused by what the other party said. After thinking about it, he immediately He reacted and smiled awkwardly.

"Uh-huh, I'll go out and help you find some other fruits."

After saying that, the hedgehog spirit left the hut as if he was running away.

After he walked out of the door, he breathed a sigh of relief, hammered his head and said angrily: "How could I forget that he is a mortal now, how can he eat pine cones with me? How stupid!"

Then the hedgehog spirit went into the mountains again, looking for something to feed Li Tiancai.

While looking for fruits for Li Tiancai, the hedgehog spirit happened to see villagers from Ningyu Village coming to cut firewood, so he asked them to bring a message for him, telling them that Li Tiancai's parents were recuperating in the mountains.

The villagers agreed to the hedgehog spirit’s request and then went into the mountains to cut firewood.

But the hedgehog spirit didn’t know that the villager forgot about it as soon as he turned around, causing Li Tiancai’s parents to mistakenly think that Li Tiancai died in the mountains.

But this is all a story for another day.

After the hedgehog spirit found fruits that mortals could eat, he returned to the hut and took the villagersThe message was conveyed to Li Tiancai.

Li Tiancai was originally worried that his parents would be worried at home, but now he was completely relieved.

For the next period of time, Li Tiancai has been recuperating in Hedgehog Jing’s small hut.

This stay lasted for three months.

During this period of time, under the careful care of the hedgehog spirit, Li Tiancai gradually developed a secret love.

The hedgehog spirit had different feelings for Li Tiancai because Li Tiancai was the reincarnation of the lion spirit. Over time, one demon and the other fell in love again.

Three months later, Li Tiancai’s legs were able to walk on the ground. Although he was a little stiff when walking, his recovery was pretty good.

On this day, Li Tiancai thought that he could walk normally, so he said to the hedgehog spirit: "Xiaowei, I want to go home. It has been three months. My parents must miss me very much."

Hearing this, a trace of loneliness flashed in the eyes of the hedgehog spirit, he forced a smile, nodded and said: "Okay, you can go back."

For the hedgehog To be honest, these three months have been like a dream.

Originally, I didn’t expect to renew my relationship with Li Tiancai, but I was completely satisfied with the three months of love.

During this period of time, the hedgehog spirit recalled countless times the little things he had spent with the lion spirit in the past.

I used to think that three months was too long, but now I feel that three months is too short.

Now, three months have passed, and it’s time to wake up from the dream.

Upon hearing this, Li Tiancai’s smile froze on his face, and he turned to look at the hedgehog beside him, with a trace of confusion in his eyes.

"Why are you telling me to go back? Aren't you going back with me?"

The hedgehog smiled hard and shook his head: "No, I won't wait until you go back. I left."

"Why?!"

Li Tiancai stood up excitedly and asked with trembling pupils: "Don't you even want to be with me? "?"

"Have you not been attracted to me during this time together?"

"I don't believe it, you have no feelings for me at all!"

The hedgehog spirit held back tears, turned his back, and said cruelly: "We are just passers-by after all, so we are not suitable."

"Why is it not suitable! "

Li Tiancai rushed to the hedgehog excitedly, but because his legs had just recovered, he lost his balance and fell down.

The hedgehog spirit quickly supported him, tears falling on the back of his hand.

Li Tiancai saw through it at a glance and asked, "Do you have any difficulties?"

"Or are you worried that I will let you down?"
< br />The hedgehog bit his lower lip, not knowing how to explain to the other party, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Seeing that the hedgehog spirit was unwilling to speak, Li Tiancai knelt down directly on the ground, pointed to the sky, and said solemnly: "I, Li Tiancai, swear to God that I will never let down Miss Xiaowei in this life. If I violate this If you say anything, you will be punished by God!"

"No, no need!"

" The hedgehog spirit quickly covered the other person's lips, for fear that the oath would take effect.

When Li Tiancai saw that Hedgehog Jing cared so much about him, Li Tiancai raised a smile on his face, grabbed Hedgehog Jing's jade hand, and said lovingly: "Xiaowei, marry me, I will not marry anyone but you in this life. ”

The hedgehog looked embarrassed, and was very entangled in his heart, not knowing how to respond to the other party.

There are differences between men and women. If they are forced to be together, there will be no good results in the end.

So, in order to make the other party give up, the hedgehog spirit said: "Be with me, and you will never have a smooth life from now on. Is this okay?"

Li Tiancai smiled and replied: "My life has not been very smooth, but the smoothest thing is meeting you."

The hedgehog spirit asked again: "With me Together, disaster and misfortune will accompany you throughout your life, doesn’t it matter?”

Li Tiancai said firmly: “No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face it together.”

Seeing Li Tiancai's determination, the hedgehog spirit couldn't help but sigh and shook his head: "Your stubborn temper has indeed not changed."

In the last life, the lion spirit was also like Li Tiancai, and he would not do what he believed in. If you change easily, it will be difficult even for you to convince yourself.

If he doesn’t agree to Li Tiancai today, I’m afraid he will have to search for him all over the world in the future.

Li Tiancai looked at the hedgehog spirit expectantly and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"I agreed!"

"Really?" Li Tiancai stood up from the ground excitedly, hugged the hedgehog and shouted loudly.

The next second, the two of them fell to the ground together because their legs were weak.

Even though the two fell down, they still laughed heartily.

At this moment, Hedgehog Jing felt relieved, and his mood had never been so happy as at this moment.

Then the two packed their luggage, left the small hut, and returned to Ningyu Village.

Li Tiancai took Hedgehog Jing all the way back home. On the way, all the villagers passing by looked at him sideways.

Li Tiancai thought that the villagers were paying attention to the hedgehog spirit around him, and a proud smile appeared on his face: "Look at these villagers looking at you, they must be very curious about me. Where did such a beautiful daughter-in-law come from?"

The hedgehog followed the gazes of the villagers and said in confusion: "But why do I feel that they are all looking at you?"

"How could it be? I have grown up here since I was a child. If there is anything good about me, it must be you." Li Tiancai said with certainty.

While talking, the two of them arrived at the door of their home, and saw Mother Li busy outside the door from a distance.

Li Tiancai waved to his mother and shouted loudly: "Mom, I'm back!"

When Li's mother heard this voice, she paused for a moment, then turned around stiffly. Turning his head, when he saw Li Tiancai in front of him, tears burst into his eyes, he dropped what he was doing and rushed over.

"Tiancai, you are really my Tiancai, wuwuwu... Where have you been during this time? Your father and I don't know how long we have been looking for you, and we thought you were... Already dead!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu />
Li Tiancai looked confused. He glanced at the hedgehog beside him and saw a hint of confusion in his eyes.

"Mom, why do you think I'm dead? Hasn't anyone told you before? That I was recuperating on Lijia Mountain."

Li's mother learned from Li Tiancai He left, wiped his tears, shook his head and said: "No, no one has ever told me. Later, your father and I went up the mountain to look for you, but we couldn't find you. The villagers said that you were very likely. He fell into the cliff and died."

"This is impossible, Xiaowei clearly asked a villager to tell him." After speaking, Li Tiancai looked at the hedgehog spirit and asked: "Xiaowei, Do you know what the villager’s name was at that time?”

Hedgehog Jing recalled: “I remember that the uncle told me that his surname was Zhao, and I don’t know anything else.”

After hearing this, Mother Li immediately understood: "So that's it. Why didn't I receive the news? The Uncle Zhao you mentioned had moved away three months ago."

"And he has the worst memory in our village. I guess he must have forgotten."

"ButIt doesn't matter, as long as you come back, Tiancai. "

"By the way, who is this girl? Only then did Li's mother react, looking at the hedgehog next to Li Tiancai and asking.

Li Tiancai cheerfully introduced: "I forgot to introduce you, mother, this is Miss Xiaowei, She is also your daughter-in-law. She was the one who saved me on Lijia Mountain. Without her, I might have died in the mountain. "

"Little girl? "Mother Li took the hedgehog spirit and looked it up and down. She couldn't help but smile on her face. She nodded and said, "Okay, okay, that's great. Our Li family has a double happiness today, and we will definitely celebrate it tonight. "

With that said, Mother Li pulled Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai into the house.

Later, Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai held a very lively party in the village. At the wedding, the two became an official couple again.

After that, Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai’s family also lived a very ordinary and happy life.

But The good times did not last long. In the fifth year after Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai got married, Li Tiancai suddenly became seriously ill and became bedridden. Even famous doctors could not find out what kind of disease Li Tiancai had.

The Li family The little savings they had were quickly depleted, and Hedgehog Jing felt heartbroken when he looked at Li Tiancai's increasingly thin body.

But Li's mother and Li's father could only shed tears all day long.

The two elders are already over fifty, nearly seventy years old, and have already been able to earn money. When Li Tiancai fell, it was like the sky had fallen.

Now the only source of income for the family , we can only rely on Hedgehog Jing.

But Hedgehog Jing’s meager income cannot support the family’s expensive medical expenses and the family’s daily expenses.

The Hedgehog Spirit felt deep despair. Finally, he had no choice but to seek help from Sha Monk again.

The Hedgehog Spirit used Buddhist beads to call Sha Monk here.

At this time, Sha Monk was practicing in Lingshan. He felt that the Buddhist beads were calling him, so he put down everything in his hands and rushed to Ningyu Village.

After arriving at Ningyu Village, he saw the hedgehog spirit waiting anxiously. In the direction of the entrance of the village.

The hedgehog spirit is much more haggard than a few years ago. It can be seen that this period of time has made her very physically and mentally exhausted.

Seeing Sha Seng rushing Come, the hedgehog spirit hurriedly greeted him.

"Master, please help me save Tiancai. I have tried all methods, but I still can't know what disease he has. If it weren't for his life, God, I will definitely not trouble you, little girl. ”

Sha Monk heardHe said hurriedly: "This is all a trivial matter. You can take me to see it now."

"Yes, master, come with me."

Said the hedgehog Jing then led Sha Seng to Li's house.

After arriving at Li’s house, the hedgehog spirit led Sha Seng into Li Tiancai’s room.

"Master, please help me take a look."

Sha Monk used his spiritual consciousness to scan Li Tiancai's body, sighed, shook his head and said: "Alas, what a trick of fate."

Seeing Sha Monk shaking his head, the hedgehog suddenly showed a look of despair, and tears flowed from his eyes like a bursting dam.

"Master, don't you have any way to save Tiancai?"

Sha Monk sighed: "It is possible to save nature, but it cannot be saved with ordinary herbs. , I need some magic medicine."

Hearing the word 'can save', the hedgehog spirit cried with joy, and quickly asked: "What magic medicine is needed?"

"I I will write down the required medicinal materials for you, and you can buy them yourself when the time comes."

As he spoke, Sha Monk turned over his hands and turned out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote out the required medicinal materials on the paper.

When the hedgehog saw the medicinal materials on the paper, the sadness on his face became more and more serious.

Just because the medicinal materials written by Sha Monk are very expensive, they cannot be purchased with ordinary coins used by ordinary people. They can only be purchased with merit points.

Given the current situation of the Hedgehog Spirit, not to mention the value of merit, even mortal coins are not much.

Sha Monk seemed to see the difficulty of Hedgehog Essence. After writing down the required medicinal materials, he placed a crystal card on the table.

“Here is one million merit points, which is enough to buy a month’s worth of medicinal materials.”

The hedgehog waved his hands repeatedly, not daring to accept: “Master, I can’t accept this. , I have troubled you so many times, and I will never accept any more money from you."

However, Sha Monk put the crystal card directly into the hands of the hedgehog spirit, and persuaded: "Fate is more important than anything else. Money is important. If you lose your money, you can make it again. If your life is gone, you will lose everything."

"Besides, this money is not given in vain, just think of it as something I lent to you."

Fearing that the hedgehog would not accept it, Sha Monk added another sentence.

The hedgehog bit his lower lip, took the crystal card, bowed deeply to the other party, and said with great gratitude: "Master, your kindness and virtue will be unforgettable in my life. I will wait for you. When Tiancai is well, I will definitely return this million merit points to you."

"By the way, I dare to ask Master, what disease does Tiancai have?"

Sha Monk's expression suddenly became serious and he asked solemnly: "Do you really want to know?"

The hedgehog spirit was a little confused and said matter-of-factly: "Of course, if you don't know what disease you have, next time How can we prevent it?"

"Then I'll tell you." Sha Seng couldn't bear it, but he still chose to tell the other party.

"The reason Mr. Li is seriously ill is because you are affected by the demonic energy in your body. You may not feel anything, but to a mortal, your demonic aura is like miasma. Generally, it penetrates into Mr. Li's body little by little."

"Over time, Mr. Li's body will become weak like a poison, which is why he is seriously ill."

"This is why there are differences between humans and monsters since ancient times."

"As long as you stay with him for a day, his serious illness will not be cured until he dies."
>
Boom——

After hearing this, the hedgehog spirit was like a bolt from the blue, and sat limply on the ground, looking desperate.

"How could this happen? I thought I could spend this life with him safely. It turns out that I was the one who made him seriously ill..."

"Girl Hedgehog, are you still Okay?”

Seeing the hedgehog spirit so sad, Sha Seng couldn’t bear it and asked with concern

The hedgehog spirit wiped his hands as if he had made up his mind. With tears in his eyes, he stood up slowly, forced a smile on his face, shook his head and said, "I'm fine. Thank you, Master, for your advice. After Tiancai is cured, the little girl will definitely find a way to pay back the hundred merit points."< br />
After saying that, he bowed to Sha Monk, turned around and walked out of the room in despair.

At that time, Sha Monk did not understand what Hedgehog Jing meant. Later he realized that Hedgehog Jing had already made plans to leave Li Tiancai.

After curing Li Tiancai, Hedgehog Spirit left a letter and a sum of money and left.

That amount of money is enough for Li Tiancai’s family to live without worries for the rest of their lives.

After Li Tiancai woke up and learned that the hedgehog spirit had left without saying goodbye, he desperately searched for her all over the world.

I don’t know whether it is destiny or invisible guidance. No matter where the hedgehog goes, Li Tiancai can always find the hedgehog.

One person and one demon have separated and reunited dozens of times, just like a lotus root. The lotus roots are broken, but they can still be connected.

At that time, Sha Monk felt very strange and could not figure out the reason, so he asked Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to check the fate of the two of them.

And Sha Monk also learned from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva that the reason was the fate of Li Tiancai and Hedgehog Jing.

It turns out that Li Tiancai and Hedgehog Jing were in love for ten lifetimes. No matter how they separated, they would still be together in the end.

After ten lifetimes of love tribulation, the lion spirit can ascend to immortality.

But now Li Tiancai is definitely just the second life of the Lion Spirit.

After learning the truth, Hedgehog Spirit was greatly tortured inside.

Being with Li Tiancai will make him suffer from illness, but if they are not together, no matter what, under the arrangement of God, the two will meet anyway.

After some ideological struggle, the hedgehog spirit no longer ran away from Li Tiancai, but chose to continue to be with him.

In order to allow the other party to successfully ascend to immortality, Hedgehog Spirit plans to spend his tenth life love calamity with Li Tiancai.

After learning about Hedgehog’s decision, Sha Monk was deeply moved by the other’s infatuation.

So every month after that, he used his salary to support Hedgehog Jing, buying a large amount of medicinal materials to help Li Tiancai alleviate the pain in his body.

More than a hundred years ago, it was Li Tiancai’s eighth life.

The hedgehog spirit somehow found out about places like the underground black market. When he learned that his hedgehog thorns could be sold for hundreds of thousands of merit points, he pulled out the thorns on his back without any hesitation. Sold to the black market in exchange for merit points.

However, the thorns on the hedgehog spirit are limited after all, and every time a thorn is pulled out, the damage to the hedgehog spirit is also great.

At that time, Sha Monk was still wondering why the hedgehog spirit had not accepted his support for several months.

That day happened to be the day when Buddhism gave out salary. As usual, Sha Monk went to find the hedgehog spirit and gave her the salary to buy medicinal materials.

But when Sha Monk arrived, he found the hedgehog unconscious and lying in the yard.

After scanning him with his spiritual consciousness, he discovered that the other party had stripped off all the hedgehog quills on his body, causing severe damage to his meridians, and the true energy could not be condensed in his body, and he was in a state of near death.

If Sha Monk hadn’t appeared in time, the hedgehog spirit would have died long ago.

Sha Monk spent a lot of energy to be able to hold the hedgehog spirit back for a breath. As for the injury, he could only rely on elixirs.

The elixir for curing hedgehog spirit is very precious. The damage to her meridians has been severe to the extent that she did, so no ordinary medicine can be effective.

Sha Seng’s salary at that timeIt was far from enough. In desperation, he had no choice but to borrow three million merit points from the Tianting Loan Company.

This is also the reason why Sha Monk borrowed money from Tianting Loan Company.

From the calamity of Journey to the West to now, it is already Li Tiancai’s tenth life.

"That's what happened." After saying all this, Sha Seng also sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face.

After Qin Tian heard this story, he still had a look of unfinished satisfaction, because he was deeply moved by the love between Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai. He sighed, shook his head helplessly and said:
< br />"What a pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks. Now I am quite curious about this pair of infatuated lovers. I wonder if you can take me to see them?"

Shan Sha naturally has no reason to refuse. He nodded and said: "If the donor is interested, it doesn't matter if I take you there."

Afterwards, Qin Tian followed Sha Monk to ride in the clouds to where Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai were.

Soon, the two came to Biluo Village, where Hedgehog Jing and the tenth generation Li Tiancai were.

Their house is located in the corner of the village. It is just a small wooden house. It does not look very good, but it is not too shabby either. On the contrary, it is clean and looks very comfortable. .

In front of the wooden house, there is a small yard surrounding it. The hedgehog spirit is sitting in the yard feeding the chickens and ducks. Li Tiancai is lying on a reclining chair and watching the hedgehog spirit busy.

Qin Tian could tell at a glance that Li Tiancai was already dying at this time. His aura was weak, his face was very pale, and the turbidity in his eyes was very obvious.

But despite this, their faces were still filled with warm and happy expressions.

From the eyes of the two of them, they can only see each other, and they have deep feelings for each other.

And I learned from Sha Monk that this life is the last life that the hedgehog spirit will accompany Li Tiancai. After Li Tiancai ascends to immortality, the fate between the two will be over.

When the time comes, Li Tiancai ascends to immortality, leaving Hedgehog Jing alone.

At this moment, the hedgehog spirit looked at Li Tiancai with a look of reluctance.

Seeing this, Qin Tian felt a little pity. He couldn't help but think, what would he do if he and Joey would experience similar incidents in the future?

Suddenly, Qin Tian’s eyes lit up, and he thought that an item on his body might be able to change the current situation that the two were about to separate.

That is the Judge’s Token.

The judge’s token isIt is a token used by the judge, which can increase or decrease the life span according to the opponent's life.

If the opponent does too many evil things, the Judge Token can shorten the relative lifespan of the opponent.

On the contrary, it can increase its life span.

However, this token can only work on mortals, and the current Li Tiancai is obviously very suitable.

Moreover, seeing Li Tiancai like this, it seems likely that he has never done anything evil.

Qin Tian looked at Sha Seng, whose eyes were also full of compassion.

Qin Tian grinned and said: "I have a way to change the current situation of the two of them."

"Oh? I wonder what the donor can do?" Hearing this Qin Tian had an idea, and Sha Monk was obviously stunned for a moment.

Said, Qin Tian took out the judge's token and explained, "You must know this thing, right?"

Sha Monk raised his eyes and suddenly He exclaimed, "Judge's Token? The donor actually has such a treasure?"

Qin Tian smiled a little embarrassedly, "Haha, this was given to me by the King of Hell."
/>
When he heard the origin of the judge’s token, Sha Seng was even more surprised.

You must know how much the King of Hell is afraid of Sun Wukong. Everyone must know, but despite this, even Sun Wukong has never received a token from the King of Hell.

If Sha Monk knew that Qin Tian still had a Token of the King of Hell in his hand, he would be shocked.

"If that's the case, why don't you go and meet them first?" Sha Seng, who had regained consciousness, was also very happy. If he could help Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai, It is naturally the best thing to be a mandarin duck with a miserable life.

Qin Tian nodded in agreement.

Immediately, Sha Seng and Qin Tian pushed open the fence gate of the yard and entered Li Tiancai's home together.

The two people who heard the noise immediately turned their heads. The hedgehog recognized Sha Seng at a glance, so he introduced Li Tiancai: "Tiancai, this is the master. My good friend has helped me a lot in the past."

As she said that, she turned to look at Sha Seng again and said: "Master, this is Li Tiancai, my husband-in-law."

"Hello, donor." Sha Seng nodded politely and greeted Li Tiancai. Although Sha Seng had known Li Tiancai for a long time, he no longer remembered him.

When we met for the first time, we introduced each other and it was reasonable.

Li Tiancai also lightly opened his pale, bloodless lips and sounded a weak voice.

　“Hello.”

Just saying two words seemed to take a lot of energy from him.

It seems that Li Tiancai's condition is very bad at this time. Just talking is already so difficult.

"This is..." At this time, the hedgehog spirit noticed Qin Tian and asked curiously.

Sha Seng was stunned for a moment. Except for Qin Tian’s name, he seemed to know nothing else.

Qin Tian smiled and spoke proactively, "Hello, my name is Qin Tian. I am a friend of this master. After hearing about you from him, I asked him to bring me over to have a look. ."

The hedgehog nodded and smiled in return.

"It's really a bad business. Tiancai is very weak now and can't get up anymore. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality. I'll make you a pot of tea now."< br />
With that said, the hedgehog spirit planned to make tea.

However, at this time, Qin Tian waved his hand and said: "No need to bother, I actually have another thing to do when I come here."

The hedgehog spirit asked: "What's the matter?"

Qin Tian turned to look at Li Tiancai and asked seriously: "Let me ask you a question, do you still want to live for more than ten years?"< br />
Hearing this, Li Tiancai did not speak, but the confusion on his face was enough to prove that he did not understand Qin Tian's words at all.

Even the hedgehog spirit looked confused at this time.

Seeing that both of them were stunned, Qin Tian asked again, "I said, do you still want to live for a few more decades?"

And the hedgehog Jing's face looked a little ugly at this time, and asked: "Huh? What does this young master mean?"

After all, it is somewhat embarrassing to say such words in front of a dying person. It's not very polite. Isn't this just rubbing salt into people's wounds?

She didn’t know that Qin Tian had the means to extend Li Tiancai’s life.

If it weren’t for the fact that Qin Tian was brought by Sand Monk, I’m afraid the Hedgehog Spirit would have turned against him by now.

Li Tiancai waved his hand indifferently and smiled bitterly.

“Ahem, I don’t want to live for more than ten years, but how can such a good thing happen.”

He believed that Qin Tian’s words just now were just He was joking, but he didn't care about Qin Tian's slightly offensive words.

However, the bitterness in my heart became even more intense.

When Qin Tian saw that the other party was willing, he took out the judge’s token and moved towardAs soon as Li Tiancai's forehead was illuminated, a burst of golden light shone, and Li Tiancai's life immediately appeared on the token.

"Li Tiancai has done good deeds and accumulated virtue throughout his life and has never done anything bad. He can increase his life span by thirty years."

"This..."

Hedgehog Jing and Li Tiancai were stunned by the scene in front of them.

Before the two of them came to their senses, Qin Tian stretched out his hand and took out the Book of Life and Death. He found Li Tiancai's name, turned the Judge's Token into a Judge's Pen, and rewrote it on the Book of Life and Death. Li Tiancai's life span directly added thirty years to his life span.

Although it is said that forcing people to extend their lives is against the laws of heaven.

However, life span is something controlled by the underworld King of Hell. The King of Hell gave Qin Tian special privileges. He extended lifespan for people, which is equivalent to the King of Hell extending life for people.

Of course there is no problem.

Moreover, Qin Tian not only added thirty years to Li Tiancai's life, but also changed Li Tiancai's fate of suffering from illness.

After doing all this, a look of shock suddenly appeared on Li Tiancai's face, which was originally weak, because at this moment, he suddenly felt that his whole body became extremely relaxed. .

He had never felt so refreshed and immediately got off the couch.

He looked at his hands in disbelief, and took two tentative steps. There was wind under his feet, and he did not look like a seriously ill person at all.

"I...I am..."

Li Tiancai still didn't understand what happened, and he was in extreme confusion.

"Ms. sir, are you...are you okay?"

The hedgehog spirit looked at this scene and was quite shocked. Since Li Tiancai became seriously ill, let alone walking. , even getting off the recliner was very difficult, and I could only lie on the recliner all day.

But now, not only can he walk, but his face has become much rosier. This is simply a miracle!

"I...I'm fine! I'm really fine!" Li Tiancai hugged the hedgehog ecstatically and held him tightly in his arms.

Her eyes were red, and a line of clear tears fell uncontrollably from her cheeks.

It has been more than ten years, and he has been seriously ill for more than ten years. From the beginning to the end, the woman in his arms has taken care of him. He has never thought of giving up, working hard and without complaint. No matter the hard work.

Li Tiancai has always seen it, and he is heartbroken. Because of his illness, his wife is like taking care of a dead person. After so many years, why doesn't he want to die directly?It's over, but he still can't let go of the beautiful woman in front of him.

Under such a painful contradiction, he lay awake for more than ten years!

Now, after finally having the opportunity to stand up, one can imagine Li Tiancai’s mood at this moment!

"Great, great!" The hedgehog spirit was also sincerely happy for Li Tiancai. After all, she knew very well that in this life, after Li Tiancai passed away, he would ascend to immortality.

As a monster, I will definitely never be able to be with Li Tiancai again. One is a fairy and the other is a monster. There is absolutely no chance for them!

Therefore, the hedgehog spirit is very reluctant to say goodbye every time he thinks about it, and that day will come soon.

The Hedgehog Essence is not opposed to Li Tiancai’s ascension. She just wants to get along well with Li Tiancai before leaving. But in these ten lives, has Li Tiancai not been in trouble?

The two of them lived a stable life, which was really rare.

Now they have thirty years.

Thirty years is not a long time, but it is not short either. It is much better than the possibility of Li Tiancai leaving at any time.

"This is all the credit of Donor Qin."

The Sha Monk on the side looked at the ecstatic two people and reminded them.

The two people hugging each other reacted immediately.

They all knelt down towards Qin Tian in unison.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin. I will never forget Mr. Qin's kindness!"

As Li Tiancai said, he kowtowed to Qin Tian again, and the hedgehog spirit did the same.

Qin Tian quickly waved his hand, then stepped forward to help the two of them up, and said: "No need to be polite, it's just a simple effort. For me, this is just a trivial matter, mainly the two of them. It’s about doing good deeds and accumulating virtue in daily life.”

“Now that your matter has been settled, I have other things to do, so I won’t disturb you two.”

With that said, Qin Tian was ready to leave.

The hedgehog spirit said quickly: "Master Qin, Sand Monk, since you are here, why not have a quick meal before leaving."

Qin Tian politely declined: " Don't bother, you have this time, why not live a good life as two people."

After hearing these words, Hedgehog Jing was fine, while Li Tiancai blushed, feeling a little embarrassed. .

"Master, please wait first."

And just when Qin Tian and Sha Seng were about to leave, the hedgehog spirit suddenly stopped Sha Seng, and thenHe dug up the soil under the chicken coop, took out a clay pot, took out a crystal card from it, and handed it to Sha Seng,

"The money in this was originally what I planned to give My husband bought medicine to treat his illness, but now that my husband has recovered, the money is naturally no longer needed."

After saying that, the hedgehog knelt down to Sha Seng again, and said with tears of gratitude: "Master, if it weren't for your support over the past thousands of years, my husband and I wouldn't have been able to survive this long. Master, don't worry, I will definitely repay the remaining merit in the future."

Sha Monk did not take the crystal card, but pushed the crystal card back to the hedgehog spirit and helped the hedgehog spirit up.

"Money is something external to the body, and it doesn't matter if it's not returned. It's up to you to spend the next thirty years with peace of mind."

After saying that, He left the courtyard with Qin Tian.

With tears in his eyes, the hedgehog looked at the two people leaving and kowtowed heavily several times.

The two returned to Liusha River. Sha Monk felt guilty and said, "Donor Qin, I'm really sorry. I still haven't repaid your debt, but now I don't have to buy medicine for Li Tiancai anymore. In the future, my salary will no longer need to support the hedgehog spirit. Don’t worry, it won’t take long for me to pay back all the debts.”

Qin Tian likes Sha Monk very much. , waved his hands and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just a delay. When you have money, it won't be too late to pay it back."

Soon, the two of them stopped continuing this topic. , and Qin Tian did not leave directly. Instead, they drank tea and talked together in Sha Seng's cabin, which was very pleasant.

At the same time, Yi Ai and the white-faced fox came to the foot of Lingshan Mountain. The golden Buddha light under the mountain blocked his progress.

In front of them is Lingshan, but Yi Ai and the white-faced fox are just monsters. Under the light of the Buddha, the two of them dare not get even half a step closer.

Helpless, Yi Ai could only transmit messages to Lord Sakyamuni at the foot of Lingshan Mountain.

"Father, Father? I am Yi Ai, can you hear me?"

At this time, Venerable Sakyamuni Yicheng was meditating in one of the dojos in Lingshan. When this message came into his mind, he was stunned on the spot, his pupils shaking.

"Yi... Yi Ai? Is it really you?"

The tone was full of shock.

After receiving the message from Lord Sakyamuni, Yi Ai's face was filled with joy and he quickly replied: "It's me, father. The child is back. I am now at the foot of Lingshan Mountain. Father, can you come and see me?" Are you a child?"

After sending out this message, Yi Ai has been waiting for Sakyamuni.The reporter's response, but for some reason, the sound transmission was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response for a long time.

A moment later, he saw a figure coming towards him quickly...
