When Xiao Mao's injury was slightly stabilized, I started to move back and forth between Heaven and the mortal world. I nursed Xiao Mao during the day and went back to accompany Xiang Qing at night. I was so tired that when I got home, I just fell on the pillow and went straight to sleep. Xiang Qing's heart was aching for me, but he was helpless and just taking his time to plan a way to hide his identity to go and visit Xiao Mao.
At the moment, Xiao Mao has become very honest and sensible. After parting with his best friend, he has finally realized the pain of separation. He also understood the situation between Xiang Qing and I and become more obedient and filial and no longer slacked off, he bowed down and seriously practiced martial arts every day.
The change was very gratifying for us, but it was painful for the bull devil couple. After all, Hong Hai'er is their only beloved child.
After the injury, Chongchong stayed in Heaven with my help she was able to stand on her own hands and feet, she became very obedient and diligently looked for work and managed to get a position as a maid for the Queen mother. Every day she works very hard and says honeyed words, if she makes a mistake, she is punished lightly. Her only hope is riding on the fact that the Queen mother hosts a banquet every year for the gods and immortals, and that the Buddha and then she will be able to see the person she likes at that time every year, hoping that one day she can leave the palace with him.
With it like this, Xiao Mao can't see his two best friends anymore, he is very sad and can only devote himself to working hard and become a powerful god who has enough influence in the future to help Chongchong and Hong Hai'er
.
Xiang Qing did not want to see him going down this route but he also respected Xiao Mao's choice. This is a long road...a very long road...it may not even be possible in a thousand years.
I also gave the immortal pill to Xiang Qing to eat. He didn't say anything and just took me into his arms and sat in front of the window. Listening to the sound of the spring rain, I fell asleep soundly.
In the middle of the night, the sound of the rain had eased and the bright moon surfaced, the sound of music drew me slowly from the land of dreams, I rubbed my eyes and asked if it was morning already. Xiang Qing rubbed my head and gently said, "It's still early, it's Xiao Cha who is playing the zither."
I looked out the window in the direction of Yin Zi's room, the lights in their room were off, but there were two white silhouettes sitting on the roof, the sound of the qin was coming from there. The sound was gentle and soft as silk gently wafted through the entire manor was filled with indescribable emotions.
"Before I had also listened to the sound of Bingwan fairy's zither, it was exquisite but it was cold, it did not have the warmth of today's." Xiang Qing listened for a long time and could not help but praise.
I held him and pat his back, "Your zither playing is also very good."
"You can only lie to people who do not understand, you should educate yourself again." Xiang Qing shook his head, "Military people are not suitable for playing the zither. Their hands are too rough and filled with calluses, they were unable to create such an exquisite sound."
"Miao Miao feels it's good."I could sniff a faint fragrance of wine in the air. I stood on tiptoe and leaned out the window and looked at Xiao Cha and Yin Zi, then happily jumped outside, "They are eating on the sly, we are going to play too."
Seeing me in a hurry, Xiang Qing could only chase after me, shouting: "Are you going to destroy the atmosphere of the young couple?"
"No! Yin Zi often comes to destroy my own." I reached the roof in three strides, smiled at the Yin Zi who was drinking and eating snacks, extended my claws and grabbed the peanuts in his hand, and sat down next to him without any politeness.
"You rogue cat." Yin Zi shook his head helplessly.
Xiao Cha was very happy, she stopped playing and carefully walked over, "Miao Miao came to sing and play together."
"You don't want this tone-deaf cat to sing, don't torment everyone." Xiang Qing also arrived on the roof, don't know where he found a cup from but he poured himself some wine from Yin Zi's jug and downed it all, and started to peel peanuts for me.
After I ate a lot of peanuts, I suddenly remembered the matter from before and asked Yin Zi rudely, "You don't want to let Xiao Cha go back to being Bingwan fairy?"
"That...I have recovered my memories." Xiao Cha blushed, embarrassed and then got up and kowtowed to apologize to me. "Before I was jealous of your relationship with Yin Zi, I hated Yin Zi only thought about you, so I was mean to you. I was actually envious of you, you are so beautiful and cheerful....everybody likes you and then I unconsciously did that stupid thing."
"It doesn't matter, I am not bothered." After listening to her apology, I immediately forgave her generously.
Xiao Cha still didn't get up, "At that time, I felt that I was so ugly, there was nothing I was better than any of my sisters in other than music. I always felt that everyone was ridiculing me and so always had on a cold face and distanced myself from others...I refused to listen and found the opinions of others to be very annoying."
***(This explains why Xiao Cha looks like Miao Miao)***
I patted Xiao Cha's shoulders and pulled her up to let her know she is not inferior, "You are very good now, but why don't you want to restore your original self? Yin Zi doesn't care much about appearance."
"He doesn't care." Xiao Cha suddenly perked up, she fisted her hands and said, "But it was hard to finally become a beautiful woman, I can't change back so quickly! You can say it is enough to be addictive!"
Yin Zi spread his hands to show he was extremely helpless, "This level of this woman's vanity is not average...I also have to go along with her too. Anyway, it's easier for me for her not to change back now, how will explain to the Ye family how their daughter became ugly."
"Even if I become ugly, you must still want me!" Xiao Cha hurriedly cried.
"Yes, even if you become a pig, I still want you." Yin Zi said with a smile.
Xiang Qing and I expressed great understanding and sympathy towards him.
The four of us ate, drank, talked and watched the bright moon. Xiao Cha began to talk nonsense about the customs in the future. She also said that after marriage, there should be a honeymoon activity and that Yin Zi should take her on a honeymoon.
"What is a honeymoon?" I was very confused.
Xiao Cha held Yin Zi's arm and with an expectant face said, "It is a trip during the first month of marriage, it is a symbol of a new happy marriage adopted from Europe!"
"Move to the side." Yin Zi criticized, "We have already been married for over a month and what do the customs of Europe have to do with us? What decent customs could those savage people from unknown civilizations have? We have the genuine orthodox ceremony in this state."
Xiao Cha hurriedly rebutted him, "What is the called to absorb the strength of others? You should learn the skills of foreigners, you cannot just casually despise other civilizations.
"In short, you just want to go play." Yin Zi frankly said out her ultimate goal.
Xiao Cha immediately began to act like a spoiled brat and said that they must go traveling and she cannot do without seeing the four ancient Chinese civilizations, it is difficult to have this kind of opportunity to observe history in action and it would be bad to waste it.
Xiang Qing listened to her to talk about the ancient civilizations and the many strange things there and suddenly became interested and said that he would take me to those places in the future. Xiao Cha heard this sentence and immediately used it to criticize Yin Zi, "Miao Miao's family's husband is so considerate...while my family's husband is....boohoohoo..."
Yin Zi was helpless, "I 'll take you, you troublesome ghost."
Xiao Cha suddenly turned my way and pulled me up and jumped up and down, and almost fell down the roof and stood still, steadying herself. She also suggested that the four of us could go on a honeymoon trip traveling around the world to play.
I listened and thought it was fun and quickly agreed to her proposal. Xiang Qing said for us to wait for a few days after things have settled down at home here then we can leave. Even still Xiao Cha was still so excited that she got her zither and said that she wants to sing some songs from her hometown for us to listen to, then she asked Yin Zi, "husband, what do you want to listen to?"
Yin Zi looked at her carefree smile and all his irritation was gone, he thought about it and said, "Playing something you like is good."
Xiao Cha thought about it and said, "Then I will play the theme of 'The legend of the Swordsman and the fairy' theme song thousand years, the lyrics seemed to be written by a lunatic. It's about a romantic love story between a mortal and a demon that touched me many times. Now looking at the four of us, it seems quite suitable."
***(The Legend of the Swordsman and the fairy is an RPG game, there's also a drama adaptation called "Chinese Paladin" 2005 ...the song is below)***
"What lunatic? You're the crazy one..." Yin Zi whispered.
Xiao didn't talk to us anymore and strummed the string and concentrated on her music. The song is very different from the ones we heard before. Although it's weird, it is still very interesting and nice.
"Frozen tears fall like meteors from the sky, who do you long for? Before annihilation has turned you to dust, in dreams your appearance is fuzzy...The Kunlun summit, the rivers, the lakes, the thousand flowers and more cover the Heavens; the human world is left out, the world of mortals sigh as they fall behind and lower from those in the celestial world; emotions like a zither that has been broken for a thousand years..."
The sound of the zither was melodious with a faint sorrow gentle lingering in a subtle manner that originally did not matter much, Yin Zi suddenly stopped drinking and looked at Xiao Cha entranced and let the wine spill over and wet his clothes. And Xiang Qing put his hand over my shoulders and held me tightly as if thinking about something.
"...This life's fate will carry over into the next life to be completed, as such time is fleeting, and the ancient sword with old grievances has broken free, who will it pledge to? In a blink of an eye, the memories of love from the past life are recollected...Kunlun summit is a distant dream, only for you lingering on; the smiling world of mortals pictures spry and lively floating clouds; it's hard to be in love, only envy the mandarin ducks, not the immortals..."
Xiao Cha's singing is so good that even people like me who don't understand is enjoying listening to this thousand years song, it is as if the 500 years of waiting is slowly unfolding before my eyes, in the end, I couldn't describe my current feelings.
When it got to the part of "...only envy the mandarin ducks, not the immortals" were wafting into my ears, Xiang Qing suddenly said to me, "Let's not wait, let's go traveling tomorrow."
That's right, let's not wait to go on the journey of love.
Here's the zither version of the song:
