"It's him? How could it be him?" Seeing the man sitting on the stone in the forest, Jin Xuanzi recalled what happened hundreds of years ago.

This man was the one who caused her to suffer such a loss of cultivation and was knocked back to her original form without any spiritual power! He was also the cruel man who betrayed her infatuation.

From a distance, she saw the man holding the pen seriously, looking at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and forests, and swiping ink on the paper. The painting also showed beautiful mountains and green forests.

Xuanzi knew that everything around her at this moment was an illusion caused by her entering Tongtian Spring, and that man was naturally not a real person.

For some reason, she had tried hard to forget everything that had happened in the past, all the painful and happy memories with him.

However, now, when that person is right in front of her, she still feels suffocation and pain at the same time. Her body wants to move, leave this illusion, and surface, but for some unknown reason, there is always an external force.

He was resisting her and preventing her from getting what she wanted.

Only then did she remember what the Prophet said before entering the pool. She must be mentally prepared and determined before entering the pool.

Only when the illusion of Tongtianquan ends can the entrant move freely and come out of it. It is impossible to forcefully walk out of the illusion. Spiritual power cannot be used in the illusion of Chili.

Although she hated that person deeply, the love she felt at that time was real. They did have good memories together.

"Shouyu, what are you doing?" A lively and sweet female voice came out from the forest.

A young woman with fair skin and slender figure walked out of the forest.

"That's me when I was a nameless little snake demon!" Jin Xuanzi couldn't help but sigh when he saw the girl walking out of the forest. At that time, he was still so innocent and carefree.

The girly version of Jin Xuanzi has bright eyes, as bright as the stars, plump red lips, and the iconic pointed mandible, which makes the whole face extremely delicate.

She was wearing a light yellow dress with ragged sleeves, and the light yellow gauze she wore was blown by the wind and flew up. Although Jin Xuanzi was an alien, she looked like a fairy from the ninth heaven who had fallen into the mortal world.

"I'm painting again." The girl bowed and looked at the man's painting with all her attention.

"Xuan'er, what do you think of my painting?" asked the man named Shou Yu. Although the man's skin is not as fair as the girl's, it is a healthy-looking bronze color, with a strong outline and bright eyebrows that show the man's

Heroic and bold.

"Well... everyone in the village knows that your paintings are beautiful, but... there is always something missing in this painting, right?" The girl Xuanzi slowly moved her face closer to the man.

Looking at the sweet girl's exquisite face, the man almost fell in deep and couldn't extricate himself. That face made him fascinated and haunted. However, the man still pretended to be calm and gently pinched Xuanzi's cheek with two fingers to pamper him.

Smiling: "Really? Then tell me, what is missing in the painting?"

The girl Xuanzi deliberately pouted her lips, pretended to be angry, pointed at the painting and asked the man: "Shou Yu, what is in your painting?"

"Mountain and forest scenery! How is it? Does it look good?" Shou Yu was delighted and wanted to ask Xuanzi how his painting was.

"Hmph, why are there only mountains and woods, but no trace of me? I am obviously here, but you pretend not to see me, and I am not in the painting. It is obvious that I am not in your heart! Humph, I'm ignoring you!" Xuanzi

He turned around with his back to Shou Yu, as if he was angry.

"Hey, why are you still angry? Xuan'er, don't be angry. I'll draw another one, and you will be the only one in the painting! Don't be angry!" Shou Yu said, holding Jin Xuanzi's hand to admit his mistake.

.

When Xuanzi heard what Shou Yu said, he turned around and asked tentatively: "Really? Do you mean what you say?"

"Of course! Of course!" Seeing that Xuanzi was no longer angry, Shou Yu hurriedly smiled, took out a new piece of paper from under the stone and put it on the wooden board, and said with a naive smile: "Hey, I'll draw it right now,

I’ll draw it now.”

"Humph, that's pretty much it!" Jin Xuanzi finally calmed down and turned around with a smile.

"But Xuan'er, you have to come closer and let me take a closer look at you, so that my painting can look more like you!!" Shou Yu said, curling his index finger at Xuanzi, and flashed a sly smile.

After hearing this, the innocent and lovely Xuanzi nodded and moved his face closer to let Shou Yu watch.

Shouyu saw Xuanzi was impressed, and kissed Xuanzi's smooth face.

"Huh, Shou Yu, you are so bad! You actually lied to me!" Xuanzi quickly stood up and covered his cheeks that were red from being kissed, lowering his head in embarrassment.

"Xuan'er, be good, don't be angry with me! I will draw a portrait for you to apologize. Don't be angry!" Shou Yu coaxed Xuanzi while he dipped the ink on the stone and began to draw Jin Xuanzi on the paper.

The beauty!

The Jin Xuanzi in his heart is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen in the world. Her appearance is even more beautiful than that of a fairy! She is also the kindest and most lovely woman he has ever seen.

The real Jin Xuanzi who entered this illusion was standing in the distance. When he saw the young Shou Yu painting a beautiful portrait of the young Xuanzi in front of him, his heart trembled.

Memories that had been sealed for a long time came out like a flood. Sweet and painful, it was only because of Xuanzi's hatred for that man that he kept trying to bury them.

The scene of painting Xuanzi's portrait was a very sweet moment in her heart as a young girl at that time. The real Xuanzi also always remembered that memory.

No matter how painful she had been, she saw that person standing in front of her. Her past self was so innocent and beautiful, and she couldn't help but walk closer to the young man and woman.

Naturally, the characters in the fantasy could not feel her existence as a real person. Shou Yu continued to describe the voice, appearance, and smile of the girl Xuanzi on the paper.

Looking at herself on the paper being so beautifully painted by Shou Yu, the girl Xuanzi smiled happily.

"I was so simple and happy at that time! But who knew that such happiness would be nothing!" Jin Xuanzi looked at the sweet man and woman in front of him and sighed deeply...

Then the scene in front of him switched to another scene.

The incident happened in the second year that the girl Xuanzi and Shouyu spent together.

At that time, due to his growth in cultivation and age, Jin Xuanzi's appearance became more charming and his temperament became more dignified.

She was mending Shouyu's torn clothes in the house.

Shouyu walked into the house and put down his backpack. In order to make a living, he often painted at home, and then walked a long way to the market in the town to sell the paintings. Although his painting skills were good, he was still unknown.

For such people, a painting cannot be sold for much money. It can only barely supplement some household expenses.

"It's quite early today!" The weather was very hot. Xuanzi saw Shouyu coming back from outside and was sweating profusely. He quickly took a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.

"Well, yes. The sales are good today. We can have a good meal. I bought the meat and came back."

"Okay, I'll have a drink with you and your parents tonight."

"Okay." Shou Yu held Xuanzi's slender hand tightly. The originally tender and smooth palm was now a little rough due to frequent rough work, and some dry calluses formed on the fingers.

Shou Yu felt a little distressed and said: "Madam, thank you for your hard work. You followed me and I didn't let you live a good life." Shou Yu rubbed the calluses on Xuanzi's palms. He found that his wife's skin was also a little dark yellow, and she was already slender and slender.

She is now thinner. Her hair, which was once smooth and silky like ebony, has become dry and yellow.

"Silly husband, what are you talking about? I am very happy. Meeting you is the happiest thing for me. Although our life is poor, we are fortunate to be peaceful."

Xuanzi and Shouyu have been married for more than a year, and they have settled down in this remote but peaceful village. Shouyu's father died young, leaving only his mother and the two of them living in a two-room wooden house in the same courtyard.

room.

The mother lives next door to them and is very grateful that Xuanzi can be her daughter-in-law. Because she realizes that with family conditions like theirs, it is a great blessing for their family that her son can marry such a daughter-in-law.

Xuanzi was also very filial to her mother-in-law, and very affectionate with Shou Yu. She did not seek to be rich, but only wanted to live a peaceful life. It would be good to stay with Shou Yu like this for the rest of her life.

She was originally an orphan, and she was born as a little golden snake. Because of the abundant spiritual energy in the mountains, the little snake breathed out every day and relied on the guidance of the mountain spirits to achieve some cultivation. The little golden snake, who had been practicing for hundreds of years, finally relied on her own

The spiritual power transformed into a human form.

She was the most beautiful alien in the mountains at that time, and all the spirits liked her because of her beauty and cuteness. However, all the aliens in the mountains came to propose marriage to her, but she rejected them one by one. She yearned for the outside world and was curious about the human world.

life.

By chance, Xuanzi, who had become a beauty, met Shouyu who often painted in the forest at the foot of the mountain.

Shouyu originally wanted to take the exams for academic honors, but he failed several times because his family had no influence and was impoverished. Later, he simply gave up on taking the exams.

His most proficient skill is painting, so he often paints and sells them in the market. Although he does not make a lot of money, he can still make a living.

My parents also had children at an old age, and they only had this precious son, Shouyu, when they were in their fifties. Therefore, by the time Shouyu was 17 or 18 years old, his parents were already old. Now they can't do any heavy work to make a living.

The important responsibility basically rests on Shou Yu alone.

Now that Shouyu has married Xuanzi, although he feels sorry for his wife and does not want him to work hard, Xuanzi is also well aware of the current situation of the family and will also find ways to increase the family's income and supplement the family income.

"Madam, don't worry, I will treat you well. In the future, when I become a real painter, I will definitely let you live a good life!" Shou Yu held Xuanzi's hand tightly and did not want to let go for a moment.

Xuanzi smiled, took Shou Yu's hand and sat down, and said: "My husband, I don't want you to grant me glory and wealth. I just want our family to live in peace for the rest of our lives. Go wash your face, we will have dinner later."
