It was really a very small white fox, with a small body and a small tail. Because it ran to the top of the mountain against the wind and snow, the whole little fox looked very embarrassed, and its paws were torn apart.

It holds a small heart-shaped leaf in its mouth.

It scooped up a ladle of water with this small leaf, and held it in its mouth to protect it all the way to the top of the mountain. I don't know how much it sprinkled along the way, and Shaoyin is not even sure how many times it tried before it succeeded. When it reached the top of the mountain, there was only a small drop of water left on a leaf.

And it gave this drop of water to her.

At that time, Shaoyin's spiritual wisdom was just opened, and she was still ignorant. Before she could see the appearance of the little white fox, it turned and ran away.

From then on, Shaoyin knew that this little fox would often come to the top of the mountain.

It will come to the top of the mountain once a day, holding the small leaf with the spring in its mouth. Calculated, it will start to climb the mountain in the early morning, climb to the top of the mountain around the same time, rest for a while at the top of the mountain, sometimes take a nap, and usually start to go down the mountain at Shenshi, and I don’t know if it can return to the residence before dark.

Xuelian Peak has a steep mountain wall, and there are many places where there is only room for a foothold, even if it is difficult for gods to climb to the top. Shaoyin couldn't imagine how this little fox put its tiny paws on the difficult cliff and climbed up step by step.

As the days passed to deliver water, the little white fox suffered more and more wounds and looked more and more embarrassed. It is not difficult to imagine that it often slipped from the mountain wall and was bruised, but it still came up every day. .

How can it be so easy to transport the spiritual spring? Sometimes the little white fox drags its wounds and finally climbs up with the leaves in its mouth. There is not even a drop of water in the leaves. It can only walk around the leaves in fear. After he was gone, he fell sadly by the Lingquan, sobbing helplessly. But it stumbled back with the injury and came up again the next day.

Shaoyin is a medicine lotus that cannot open spiritual wisdom, a drop of spiritual spring can only make her have a hazy consciousness, if it is to be watered into a fairy lotus, it needs many, many spiritual springs.

But as she received more and more watering, Shaoyin's consciousness became clearer and clearer.

She can't move, but she can observe with spiritual sense. She often observes the surrounding environment quietly, or looks at this little white fox.

She guessed that there should be a rare spiritual spring on the mountainside of this snow mountain, which gathers the spiritual energy of the world and helps all things to cultivate and transform, but it is not easy to pour the spiritual spring. The spiritual water that the little white fox handed her should have come from there.

In addition, she found that this little white fox has a lot of aura. Although this mountain is a spiritual mountain, it is extremely cold and the environment is too harsh. There are no other living beings except the medicine lotus transformed by the spiritual energy, including myself. There may be some vegetation transformed by the spiritual energy in the place covered with less ice and snow, but And no animals. This little white fox is the only living creature on and off the snow-capped mountain. It may also be a spirit fox bred by the aura of the mountain, but it has not developed its spiritual wisdom.

It is obviously a fox spirit but has no wisdom.

Moreover, Shaoyin didn't understand why it was willing to go all the way to water itself when it clearly had no intelligence.

There will be an extremely severe blizzard every forty-nine days in Snow Mountain.

But on such days, the little white fox will still come up against the wind and snow, even if it is impossible for it to deliver water successfully in this weather.

One day, when the little white fox came up to send off the spirit spring, it happened to encounter a blizzard that had never happened in a thousand years, almost blowing away all the snow lotuses in the ice pond.

Shaoyin opened the stamens and let the little white fox hide in her lotus heart, then she closed the petals tightly, and protected it between the leaves in the storm, and fed her lotus pods and roots to the little white fox. After three days and three nights, the little white fox was saved.

One day later, when the little white fox came up to the top of the mountain with a leaf in its mouth, Shaoyin was able to speak.

She said to the little white fox: "Don't pour me the spiritual spring anymore, drink it yourself. It's hard for me to become a fairy, and it will be faster if you drink it yourself."

"Aww ow!"

The little white fox carefully held the leaf in its mouth, and its cheerful cry was indistinct. Then it lowered its head and happily poured the preserved spiritual spring on Shaoyin's lotus heart.

Shaoyin had no choice but to let it water her.

The little white fox does not drink the water from the spiritual spring himself, and pours all the spiritual spring water it can get on Shaoyin's lotus heart.

They have been together for nearly five hundred years.

Until Shaoyin was finally poured into a fairy.

As an ancient medicine lotus, she was watered by a spiritual spring and changed her fate against the sky. Once transformed into a human, she became a fairy body. She did not have the soul of an ancient god, but she had an ancient body.

Because her original form is extremely rare and precious, she is also highly respected in the Nine Heavens, and at the same time, she has the power of the ancient gods in her transformation. So Shaoyin hid the little white fox in the heart of a lotus in the ice pond, moved the entire Xuelian Peak where he lived to Jiuchongtian, and settled in a corner of the eastern sky of Jiuchongtian. The way the little white fox became a fairy wants to repay his kindness.

As an ancient medicinal lotus, Shaoyin was born with the talent of curing diseases and saving lives. Since she developed her spiritual wisdom, she has naturally mastered the principles of medicine and medicine, and she is also very good at comprehending them. Eight thousand years ago, the way of medicine in the fairy world was still simple, and there were not many medical immortals. It didn't take long for Shaoyin to gain a reputation in Jiuchongtian.

But as her medical skills grew and her cultivation improved greatly, when Shaoyin wanted to help the little white fox become a fairy, she discovered that it was missing a soul and a soul.

When Xue Li heard this, she couldn't help being startled, and repeated: "One soul and one soul are missing?!"

Shaoyin held the teacup in her palm, nodded lightly and said, "That's right."

She said: "When all creatures are born, they should have three souls and seven souls. Only when all souls are complete can they be clear; It's also lively and well-behaved, and it's fine as a spirit beast, but it's impossible to open up its intelligence."

Xueli raised her spirits unconsciously, and said in amazement, "How could this happen?"

Shaoyin paused, recalling memories of that time.

When she first found out that the little white fox had only two souls and six souls, she was also very surprised.

No wonder it knew how to climb to the top of the mountain to feed her water, so psychic, but it has never been enlightened and failed to become a fairy.

Shaoyin said: "It's hard for me to say the exact situation. According to my deduction, it may have passed away once. The past is unknown, but even if there was a past life, it should not be very old. After many years of confusion Because of the lack of evil thoughts in his heart, he transformed into a little white fox again in the aura of Xuelian Peak. It's just that the original souls have dissipated, so they didn't gather together, only two of them and six of them became like this."

Sydney quickly asked: "Then what should I do?"

Shaoyin sighed softly and said, "It's very difficult."

Shaoyin was also shocked when she found that the little white fox was missing a soul and a soul.

Even if she is born with medical knowledge and can cure all diseases, this situation is not something she can handle. In the fairy world, there is no poison that cannot be cured, no injury that cannot be mended, only the soul is fixed on the day of birth, and it is impossible to have more or less. If you want to mend the soul of the little white fox, you must take other people's souls to make it up.

This is the most evil sorcery.

After much deliberation, Shaoyin decided to use his own soul to make up for the little white fox's soul.

When Xue Li heard this, she was shocked and said: "Take the soul and replenish the soul, isn't this the way of the demon?!"

Shaoyin shook his head and said: "Take the life of other people's spirits and souls for your own use. It is considered evil to harm the living or the dead. But if you use your own body to help others, you can take the body and life of the dead without damaging the will and health of others." The blood of those who save other people's lives is to heal the heart."

Shaoyin said: "Furthermore, I am a medicine lotus, so I shouldn't have a soul. My soul was originally endowed by the spiritual spring it attracted, and it is most appropriate to use my soul to repair its soul. I was I also feel that this action may not necessarily mean death. After all, I am a medicine lotus. Since Lingquan can give me a soul once, it may not be impossible to have a second time. In the spiritual spring, after making sufficient preparations, I replaced it with a soul."

Xueli was terrified when she heard it, and asked: "Did it succeed in the end?"

With a smile on the corner of Shaoyin's mouth, she replied, "Of course it succeeded."

Xue Li was relieved to hear the answer, but immediately felt stupid again. If it doesn't work, how can my aunt sit here and talk to herself?

However, Shaoyin froze, and her thoughts continued to drift back to a thousand years ago.

After the little white fox's soul was completed, because he got Shaoyin's fairy soul, he formed a fairy body on the spot at the same time. It's just that the soul that has just been repaired is still fragile. Although it has a fairy body, it still took thousands of years to have a hazy consciousness and wisdom, and another thousand years before it finally became a human body.

Shaoyin said: "Since then, we have lived together in Xuelian Peak. Because she was melted in the ice and snow, I named her Xuexin. After she became enlightened, Xuexin was very afraid of the cold for some reason. In winter, she was so scared that she shivered, and sometimes she couldn’t even move. Her fear of the cold is different from ordinary people. Most people really feel 'cold', but she is 'fearful', just like you are afraid of thunder. As a snow lotus in the ice pond, I am Those who are not afraid of the cold can't quite understand this feeling, but because of this, I thought of a way to create the 'snow melting technique' to help her get rid of the cold in winter."

"After having the snow melting effect, Xuexin's fear of the cold has improved a lot."

"She and I studied medical skills in Xuelian Peak. She worked hard in medicine. But because the matter of replenishing the soul is against the law of heaven, Xuexin is destined not to go out to meet people, so I usually receive visitors and patients in the outer palace. , or go out to search for medical books and fairy herbs, Xue Xin stays in the inner palace to study medical skills, and the two of us often discuss medicine together."

"Unknowingly, Xuelian Peak's reputation has become more and more prosperous, but outsiders only know that there is me in Xuelian Peak, and never know about Xuexin. In fact, at least one-third of the fairy magic prescriptions we usually use to cure diseases and save lives are from Xuexin. I feel very guilty about this, but after I asked Xue Xin, Xue Xin answered me like this—”

Shaoyin paused for a while, took a sip of tea, and repeated: "Xue Xin said, 'Since you have mastered life and death, why care about fame and fortune? No matter who heals a patient, if one more person is cured, there will be less A life and death parting, one less separation of flesh and blood, may there be only joy in the world, no sorrow and separation.'”

The woman's clear voice was still in my ears, making Shaoyin lose his mind for a moment.

In fact, Shaoyin also asked her why she worked so hard to water herself with the spiritual spring, and Xuexin's answer was similar.

Xue Xin said: "I don't know too well, but your attainments in medicine are different from others. I vaguely feel that if a snow lotus like you, which can cure all diseases, can turn into a fairy, it will definitely change the outcome of many things. At least many My dear, I will no longer be separated from Yin and Yang due to illness. Sometimes death is fine, but I am afraid that those who stay in this world will be very painful and sad."

When Xue Xin said this, she was a little sad, as if she had felt guilty about someone's heart and couldn't rest assured.

After Shaoyin was in a trance for a while, she recovered from her distraction and looked at Xueli.

Xueli was looking at her with blinking eyes, and the white ears on the top of her head moved subconsciously. She was obviously very nervous about every word she said. place.

Shaoyin couldn't help but patted Xueli's head and said, "By the way, there is one thing I want to explain."

"Ok?"

Sydney tilted her head.

Shaoyin explained: "I share the soul and live with Xue Xin. She owes me a favor, and I also repay her. Although she developed her spirituality much later than me, we knew each other very early. Counting, there is not much difference between the two of us, and other relationships are not very suitable, so we worship sisters. I am an older sister, and she is a younger sister, so..."

Sydney interfaced suspiciously: "So?"

Shaoyin said: "...so I am really your aunt."
