C2023 It's Cold and Warm
Jiang Tian couldn't help but laugh. He nodded and said, "That's right. When uncle makes a lot of money, he will go back and marry a wife."
However, he was thinking in his heart that his marriage with his previous life and present life was a hasty one. If they were to reunite one day, would it be a golden age wedding for her?
It was not that big, just blowing up a few stars as fireworks, shocking the entire universe.
"Where's Bebe and Blackie? Why aren't they accompanying you for the new year?"
A Hu asked.
"They... have something to do!"
Jiang Tian smiled bitterly.
Jiang Beibei had already started his first seclusion, breaking through to the Foundation Building realm.
However, this place wasn't at home.
Jiang Tian didn't accompany him, but was protected by Blackie.
Hence, he was the only person in the house at this time.
"Since that's the case, Uncle, let's go to my house for New Year's Eve dinner..."
A Hu was about to say something.
At this time, his father, Iron Bull, called out to his newly built blacksmith shop on the opposite side.
A Hu quickly answered and said to Jiang Tian with a bitter face,
"Ah, Uncle Jiang, I'm going to forge iron again." After saying that, he helplessly returned to the iron tools shop.
From within the shop came a few words of scolding from A Hu's father.
Jiang Tian took a sip of wine and sat at the door, listening quietly.
At this time, some snowflakes gradually drifted down from the sky. Gradually, the snowflakes became bigger and bigger. This year's first snow fell silently from the sky.
The temperature suddenly turned cold.
The snowflakes hit Jiang Tian's face and quickly melted into ice water.
Jiang Tian looked up at the hazy sky. After a long time, he reached out his Right Hand and casually clenched it. Immediately, the snowflakes in the surroundings gathered.
Jiang Tian took a deep breath and let go of the Right Hand. Immediately, the snowflakes dispersed and began to drift in all directions.
This scene happened very quickly. No one noticed anything unusual. All of them lowered their heads and hurried on their way.
As the sky became darker and the lights lit up, the number of pedestrians on the streets gradually decreased.
In the end, there was no one else on the street.
Even the surrounding shops closed their doors in advance due to the heavy snow falling from the sky and the New Year's Day. They no longer engaged in business.
The family gathered by the stove to warm themselves, ate the New Year's Eve dinner, drank wine, and chatted happily.
This kind of warmth was not only physically but also mentally.
The family was together with Yuan Yuan. This kind of warmth could drive away any cold.
Jiang Tian's eyes gradually revealed a desolate look.
The coldness brought by the snowflakes was really insignificant to him.
However, at this moment, he looked at the lights of the shops around him. Only his shops on the entire street were dark. A trace of coldness suddenly rose in his heart.
This kind of coldness was not something that any fire source could dispel, nor was it something that any abhijna magic could make up for.
This kind of coldness was the price to pay for comprehending the Heavenly Dao, and it was a necessity to experience life.
If one wanted to transform into a spirit, one first had to transform into a mortal.
But to become a mortal, one had to become a mortal. It was easy to say, but in reality, it was not that simple.
Jiang Tian now understood Dugu.
His parents were billions of light years behind him in the Milky Way, that small blue planet.
Qing Er was in the core area of the central galaxy far ahead, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. It was hard to see her.
It was as if he was floating above the Saint Origin universe alone and did not see any old friends in front of him. Thinking of the leisurely nature of the heavens and earth, he was the only one who shed tears of sorrow.
He knew very well that apart from the day he jumped out of the Destiny Chess Game, this loneliness would continue to haunt him.
Jiang Tian was silent for a long time before he staggered to his feet. He seemed to age at this moment.
He slowly tidied up the chair at the door and returned to the shop. He gently closed the door.
"I can't put it down... I can't put it down..."
Jiang Tian looked at the cold pot and the stove. In his mind, he recalled the time when his family had gathered at home and his disciples had gathered around the lively scene. He could not help but mutter to himself, his eyes lost in thought.
In his previous life, when he was cultivating, he couldn't let go of his family.
Even now, he still couldn't let go of his family even after he had lived another life.
However, this kind of feeling was different from back then.
If he wanted to become a deity, he had to first turn into a mortal. If he truly let go of his kinship and everything, then wanting to turn into a mortal was simply impossible.
"But why do you have to let go?"
A smile of understanding appeared at the corner of Jiang Tian's mouth.
The reason why every Soul Formation Stage friar was so powerful was not only because of his Cultivation Level, but also because he had a hidden emotion in his heart.
"I'm not tired of love!"
He didn't sever his seven emotions and six desires, but he wasn't heartbroken by the passing of his loved ones. He cried and enjoyed his feelings, but he wasn't addicted to them.
It was precisely this feeling that allowed them to transform into mortals, and then use their emotions to break through to the Nascent Soul realm and reach the Divine Stage realm.
It was precisely because of this obsession that Jiang Tian didn't encounter too many setbacks in his transformation. Instead, he gradually felt the feeling of a mortal.
At this moment, he was immersed in Qing Er's longing for Ling Er's parents for their homeland.
He quietly comprehended this feeling. The magic power in his body began to rotate crazily once again.
This rotation gradually came out of his body. Above all the medicinal herbs in the shop, a trace of the spiritual energy suddenly rose. It was the same fluctuation as the magic power in Jiang Tian's body and rapidly rotated.
Gradually, the rotation of this spirit power became faster and faster, and it came out of the shop.
When the falling snowflakes landed on the roof of the shop, they also began to spin, forming many spinning snowflakes that rapidly slid in all directions.
The snowball grew heavier and heavier, and it was silent and soundless.
After a long time, Jiang Tian gradually woke up.
He stood up and pushed open the door of the shop. A cold light came from his face, mixed with countless cold snowflakes. Jiang Tian looked up at the sky. He said in a flat voice,
"Soul Formation, I must do it! No one can think of using me as a chess piece!"
The snowflakes falling from the sky became even larger, and a thick layer of snow was piled up on the ground.
At this moment, the door of the metal shop opposite suddenly opened.
A Hu and his father were about to go out when they saw Jiang Tian standing opposite them. They could not help being stunned for a moment.
After that, A Hu ran a few steps and stepped on the snow. With a creaking sound, he came to Jiang Tian's side and shouted.
"Uncle Jiang, did you know we were coming?"
After saying that, he went into the room and sat by the stove.
A Hu's father, Iron Bull, was holding a wooden basket with a silly smile. He said to Jiang Tian, "Brother Jiang, are you busy?"
Jiang Tian smiled and moved away. He said, "I'm not busy. Come in and talk."
The father and son entered the room and opened the lid of the wooden basket. They saw four plates of household side dishes and two bottles of fruit wine inside.
Jiang Tian took a look and looked at A Hu's father with a faint smile.
For the past few years, he had been in contact with A Hu.
This was the first time he had seen this straightforward man in such a situation. Clearly, he had something to ask for his help.
"Big Brother Tie Hu, if you have something to say, just say it."
Jiang Tian said.
A Hu's father hesitated for a moment, rubbed his hands, and said awkwardly, "It's okay. It's okay."
A Hu looked at the side dishes in the basket. He swallowed and reached into the basket to grab it.
His father's eyes widened. A Hu was so scared that he quickly stopped. He muttered discontentedly, "Isn't it just borrowing some medicinal crystals? What's there to be embarrassed about?"
A Hu's father's face immediately turned red. He scolded, "Little bastard, I'll deal with you when you get home."
A Hu stuck out his tongue and said to Jiang Tian,
Uncle Jiang, my father is too embarrassed to say it. Let me say it. My mother arranged for the matchmaker to tell me about a family. However, he wants a lot of gifts. His family doesn't have enough savings."
A Hu's father sighed. He looked at Jiang Tian and said helplessly.
"Good brother, I'm sorry to trouble you, but A Hu doesn't have the talent for cultivation. Mortals his age are married. The longer we wait, the harder it is to find a wife."
Jiang Tian nodded with a smile. He picked up the wine pot in the wooden basket, took a sip, and said,
"How much do you want?"
A Hu's father hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't want much. Besides, I still have some debts to settle outside. I need... 30 low grade crystals..."0
A Hu pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Mother clearly said that she needs 80 A Hus. You can't even take back those rotten debts of yours..."
Before he could finish speaking, his father glared fiercely at him again.
Jiang Tian did not say anything either. Nodding, he got up and went to the back room. There was a large frame, filled with crystals and spirit stones.
Jiang Tian casually picked up a high-grade medicinal crystal and returned to the shop, placing it in front of A Hu's father.
When A Hu's father saw that it was actually a high-grade medicinal crystal, he was momentarily stunned and hurriedly said,
"There's no need for so much. Brother, quickly take it back. I only need to borrow 30 low-grade medicinal crystals to be enough."
In his opinion, these high grade crystals were quite big. Compared to what he needed, they were much bigger.
Jiang Tian picked up the wine jug and said with a smile, "Old brother, I didn't borrow this money from you. It's from me. From now on, I'll buy a pot of wine every day. This fruit wine of yours is not bad. Ten years worth of wine is worth it."
A Hu's father was stunned for a moment. His face showed gratitude. He said, "Brother, this..."
A Hu rolled his eyes and said, "Dad, just take it. Uncle Jiang is different from you. He has some skills. Any random herb is worth about ten low grade crystals."
A Hu's father glared at him again. Then, he took a deep breath. He picked up the wine pot and poured himself a big cup. He took a big sip and nodded.
Brother Jiang, what do you mean by eight or ten years? As long as you stay here for a day, my family will send you a pot every day."
Jiang Tian smiled.
Looking at the father and son pair in front of him, his heart was no longer cold, but slowly warmed up.
That night, A Hu's father drank a lot. Two pots of wine were obviously not enough.
A Hu waited by the side until he brought the tenth pot. Only then did he manage to drink it properly.
In the end, A Hu's father drank until he was drunk.
However, he held the high-grade medicinal crystal tightly in his hand. Jiang Tian and A Hu helped him back.
When Jiang Tian turned around and returned, A Hu whispered to Jiang Tian.
"Uncle Jiang, this wine... My family has a lot of it. My father won't let me tell anyone. In fact, in my cellar... There are a few big pots left by my ancestors. I heard that there are quite a lot of them buried underground, but my dad said you like them. I'll keep them for you. If it wasn't for my dad refusing to sell them, my mom wouldn't have let him borrow money. "She can get them to the winery and sell them for a lot of money!"
