Uncle Nine, where are you running to?

"Don't look at him. Uncle won't do anything else at this moment. He will come back on his own soon."

A-Lian held the sleeping child in her arms and shook her head gently at A-Wei who was standing behind the wishing tree.

The scenery of Dongpingzhou remains the same as before.

The wishing tree blocks out the sky and the moon.

Lin Feng still went out on patrol during the day, looking for something to numb his nerves.

Every night after coaxing the children to sleep, I would sit on a tree branch here with a mirror, either looking in the mirror or gazing at the moon and thinking of my loved ones.

It was just like when she came here to drink away her sorrow after he died.

Knowing that she didn't like him drinking, he didn't drink either, but just looked at the moon.

The sea breeze brought a salty smell. A-Lian tightened the swaddling clothes in her hands and frowned, saying:

"If you don't go back, I have to go back first. The wind is too strong here, and Xiaozhu is too small to withstand the wind."

Ah Wei finally felt sorry for his daughter. He sighed softly and put his arm around Ah Lian's shoulders, "Let's go back."

"Ah." A-Lian stuffed the child into A-Wei's arms:

"It's been over a year, and I don't know when she'll come back. Ruoruo and Chuchu both call me daddy now. Every time they cry for their mommy, I can't help but want to cry."

Ah Wei looked back at the desolate figure on the tree and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Feng said she will be back in less than a day, so he is waiting here."

"Besides, he's not the same person he used to be."

"One day?" A-Lian nodded, counting the days on her fingers and whispering, "Based on the time difference Uncle mentioned, doesn't this mean that Uncle's last life is about to end?"

A-Lian sighed again, a look of reluctance and conflict in her eyes. "I want her to come back soon, but I also feel bad for her having to go through so many deaths of her uncles."

And the same is true for Wei.

Jingzhi grew up with him and they worked in the same unit when they grew up.

They have a good relationship, Jingzhi is like his own sister, how could he not feel sorry for her.

"Let's go first. If you don't want to sleep, you have to eat anyway. We'll come back after breakfast."

The couple gradually drifted apart.

On the secluded seashore, the only sounds were the crash of the tide and the rustling of the branches.

Lin Feng waited for a long time, until he could no longer see the two of them at the end of the road, then he waved a white light to the side.

Five fluttering flags suddenly appeared on the beach, which was glowing a faint ochre light under the moonlight.

Blue, white, red, and black each occupy one side.

A yellow flag, fluttering in the wind, stands alone in the middle.

Just put out the boundary flag.

The mirror in his hand moved.

The mirror, which had been stagnant for more than a year, finally began to rotate in the opposite direction.

Lin Feng's face lit up with joy, and he then held the mirror in one hand and concentrated on arranging the magic with the other, causing the five flags to take root in the places where they should be.

As Jingzhi's figure began to appear on the mirror, the round moon as big as a plate was instantly hidden by dark clouds.

From time to time, there were muffled rumbling sounds above my head.

Purple lightning began to shuttle through the dark clouds.

Lin Feng observed the sky and thought that this thunder tribulation would not allow the couple to relax for even a moment.

"The Azure Dragon in the East controls the universe, and the Vermillion Bird in the South controls the flames.

The White Tiger in the west restrains evil spirits, while the Black Tortoise in the north locks away evil spirits.

The Yellow Emperor sits in the center palace, and the Five Elements barrier protects his body!"

As his majestic voice fell.

Five flags were sunk deep into the sand according to the directions of east, south, west and north. In the middle, a yellow flag embroidered with a golden dragon was constantly spinning in the air.

Slowly, with four flags as the boundary, a square barrier with white light gradually appeared in the air.

At the same time, Jingzhi's original form gradually solidified on the mirror.

Lin Feng's eyes suddenly softened, and he immediately raised one arm to block the sea breeze, carefully holding the mirror and moving around.

But in the blink of an eye, he appeared inside the barrier.

When the yellow flag at the center of the formation spun deep into the ground, leaving only the tip of the flag exposed, his entire body happened to be hovering above the flag.

The mirror in his hand spun faster and faster, as if it had turned into flowing silver sand.

"Jingzhi...come back."

With his call, the kitten's tightly closed eyes gradually opened.

The clear cat's eyes were confused for a moment.

The next second after seeing Lin Feng, a layer of mist quickly gathered on the surface of the crystal.

The kitten seemed to have its feet stuck in the mud and it struggled to stand up.

As she moved, ripples appeared in the silver liquid beside her body.

"A Feng..."

She raised her two front paws and stretched them toward him.

Lin Feng stretched out his right hand to catch it, and gently pulled her body upwards.

The moment the tip of the tail left the mirror, the whole cat was covered in golden light.

As the thunder fell, Lin Feng hugged her tightly in his arms.

The embrace filled with the warm scent of sandalwood completely enveloped her.

More than a thousand years of grievances and longings burst out in this instant.

Jingzhi struggled out one of her front paws and used cat punches to hit Lin Feng's chest continuously.

"You bastard! I knew you would set up a barrier. If I get struck to death by lightning, I'll—"

Before he could finish his words, the kitten's paw was held by him.

Lin Feng closed his eyes, lowered his head and gently placed a kiss on her raised forehead.

Outside the barrier, there were lightning and thunder.

One after another, thumb-thick lightning bolts fell madly, as if to kill the couple who were showing off their love.

Awei and Alian, who were halfway home, heard a strange noise and stopped.

When they saw the strange dark clouds gathering in the distance and the falling lightning, the two looked at each other and turned to run towards the pier.

The small fishing village, which was originally plunged into darkness, began to light up one doorstep after another as the noise at the seaside grew louder.

Lin Feng has protected them for so long, the villagers will naturally agree to his request.

The adults in every household took their things and spontaneously walked towards the dock...

……

At the dock, the kitten in front of Lin Feng was injected with a little magical power by him and was slowly transforming into the appearance he was familiar with.

"Don't be afraid." Lin Feng grabbed Jingzhi's hand as she tried to push him out of the minefield, held it against his chest, and whispered to her, "This time, I'll protect you."

"Thunder from the sky is no joke." Jingzhi was deeply affected by it. She frowned and turned to look towards the east, where the outline of a house could be vaguely seen.

"We still have family here, are you sure?"

"Alas." Lin Feng gently held her in his arms, "I've been gone for so long, have you forgotten? I'm no longer the Lin Feng I used to be. If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have come in."

"The thunder tribulation is used to temper your mortal body. It has no effect on me."

"You are a spirit beast, and you will face twice as many thunder tribulations as a human becoming a god. The first eighty are tests for you, and the last one is the key to tempering your body and becoming an immortal."

"I'll help you."

Seeing him so calm, Jingzhi felt a lot more at ease.

"That's good."

"By the way, why is there a red vertical line on your forehead? Have you mutated?" she suddenly asked.

Lin Feng smiled and took away her fingers that were rubbing his forehead, then said, "You'll know in a moment."

The lightning and thunder outside seemed to become insignificant background music.

Jingzhi finally had some thoughts. She held Lin Feng's face and took a good look at the man she had been thinking about day and night.

"You don't know how much I miss you."

"For you, maybe just a little time has passed, but for me, a thousand years have passed."

"A Feng..."

She pursed her lips and murmured softly.

Several tails flying behind him seemed to have found a second owner and rushed towards him, wrapping some around his arms and some around his ankles.

The familiar and intimate rubbing made Lin Feng's heart move.

He tightened his grip around her waist, resting his hand against her forehead, his eyes filled with apology and pity. "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I hadn't left things lying around, you wouldn't have had to endure this."

"It's also my fault. If I hadn't been so stubborn and didn't understand love between men and women, you wouldn't have had to suffer so much in every life."

Seeing his red eyes, Jingzhi, who loved her husband madly, couldn't bear to leave him again.

She leaned over gently with her head tilted.

The red lips were only one centimeter away from his soft lips, and suddenly a baby's "Wow" was heard from outside the barrier.

They both turned their heads to look at the same time.

Ah Wei stood under the tree, holding the child and rocking him with an embarrassed look on his face, crying and laughing at the same time:

"Junior sister, you are finally back. Master, I didn't mean to do that. The thunder was too loud and Xiaozhu was awakened."

Lin Feng closed his eyes and felt like strangling Awei.

He deliberately waited until they were far away before setting up a barrier to rescue them, but he didn't expect that this brat would come back with his family.

He also interrupted her long-awaited kiss.

Jingzhi was so close that she could faintly hear the sound of his teeth grinding.

Although she was a little curious about the baby in Wei's arms, she still stretched out a hand and waved at him, "Go further away, don't scare the child."

Her voice was faintly heard amid the thunder.

The voice no longer had the playful vitality it had when he first left.

At this time, he became more reserved and gentle.

Combined with the one or two truths that Lin Feng sometimes revealed, Awei pursed his lips and almost burst into tears in front of him.

He would rather his junior sister always be that unrestrained and carefree.

Ah Wei slowly retreated, saying: "After you get through this calamity, do you want to consider..."

He spoke in a lower voice, "Master will be punished by kneeling on a washboard."

"What did you say!?"

A cold look shot over instantly.

Ah Wei hiccupped in fear, took two steps back, held the child tightly in his arms, and whispered:

"Or, kneeling on a durian is fine."

Lin Feng's serious face finally cracked.

Ah Wei retreated again and again, still defending Jingzhi:

"Master, you were wrong in the first place. Last time you told me that you had let her down. So why don't you give her some spiritual compensation?"

"Pfft..."

Jingzhi lay on Lin Feng's chest, laughing so hard that she was shaking. "Hey, my senior brother is pretty good, isn't he? He has a positive outlook on life. If A-Lian marries him, she won't be bullied by him."

Lin Feng snorted, pursed his lips and said nothing.

In my mind, I was just counting the number of thunders outside.

However, when Wei saw that he had someone to support him, he became tough again.

"It was A-Lian who bullied me. I won't touch her at all."

As soon as he finished speaking, his lower back was twisted.

A Lian's gnashing voice came to my ears, "Who bullied you?"

Ah Wei's body trembled, and his face immediately filled with a flattering smile, "How could my wife bully me? She loves me and even gave birth to a little girl for me!"

"...Hmph!" A Lian raised her chin and turned her head to the side.

The dimples on her face were faintly visible in the smile that she couldn't hide. "You are so slick, how could I be attracted to you?"

"Of course it's me..."

Just as he said this, beams of swaying flashlights suddenly appeared on the small road in the harbor.
