On this day, the saintess of the Wu clan has been ancient for a hundred years, although she is 100 years old, there is no silver thread, there is no wrinkle on her face, her skin is delicate, it is unimaginable, this is the saint who has gone through the two dynasties of Southern Chu.

The saint was elected to the palace as a concubine in the second year of Tianyuan, and when the old emperor died, the saint had no children and no daughters under her knees, which may have been part of the contract of the former saint Xia Yuchun.

Those who are saints must not go out of bounds, must not be trapped by seven emotions and six desires, cannot marry and have children, must be alone in the empty boudoir, and devote themselves to cultivation.

There is only one exception, the holy woman can marry the emperor, as long as she is chosen by the emperor.

Since the founding of the country, only two saints have been crowned posterior.

First, it can consolidate the relationship between the Wu clan and the Southern Chu Emperor.

Second, the emperor could use the power of the saint to strengthen his control over the foreign countries, which had never been violated since the founding of the Southern Chu state.

The national strength of Southern Chu is getting stronger and stronger, the people are living a healthy and prosperous life, and the life index is soaring day by day, and the era is prosperous.

In recent years, due to the fact that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the national strength has increased sharply, the Emperor of Southern Chu has gradually relaxed his vigilance, paralyzed in the dream of prosperity that he thinks he had, and he actually has a thorn in the flesh of the Wu clan.

This is the so-called high place is cold, and the most effective way for people who cannot be completely tamed is to make them disappear, after all, this is a scandal that the people cannot bear.

The Wu Clan's primary task now is to refine the elixir and help the Emperor of Southern Chu to attain Dao and cultivate into an immortal as soon as possible, and it has been a long time since he has participated in the internal national conditions of the Southern Chu Kingdom.

The most heated discussion is who is the next Chosen Saint?

The Chosen Saintess, what is the Chosen One, according to the legend of the Wu clan and the birth of the recent saints, it is the soul of the first saint who chooses people at random.

The sixth saintess was kissed on the lips by a red carp by the river, and the red carp was like a giant octopus grabbing the lips of the saint until the lips of the saint were swollen as big as steamed buns, and she had to be taken to the temple of the saints.

Standing in front of the ancestors of the Xia family, the red carp turned into a red rope in front of the ancestors and tied it tightly to the wrist of the saint, which was recognized by the clansmen.

The seventh saintess, who has just become an ancient concubine, is even more amazing.

When she was a teenager, she went up to the mountains with her friends to collect medicine, and suddenly heard the cry of pheasants in the forest, but the cry was louder and clearer than that of pheasants.

Everyone looked around in shock, and suddenly a phoenix wandered around the forest, the phoenix was burning like a fire, and the cry was the same as what they had just heard.

Everyone discussed this spectacle, but they saw the phoenix wandering around three times and swooping down, turning into a fireball in the eyes of everyone and flying into the eyes of the concubine, and the concubine was stunned on the spot.

The concubine woke up and stood in the temple of the Holy Maiden, and the elders of the clan saw with their own eyes that there was a fire burning in her eyes, and a pair of wings like fire grew behind her, and there was a steady stream of phoenix chirping in the temple of the Holy Maiden.

It happened that the old emperor was hunting here, and the Ji family was not restricted by the enchantment, and when he entered the Wu clan, he saw this situation and fell in love with the holy woman at first sight.

He also asked the astronomical to observe the sky, and a light was turned on in the night sky, and the astronomical was shocked and shouted a good omen, so the holy woman in the gong and drum noise was given as a concubine, and it was a good story in the Wu clan!

And this time, the Chosen Holy Woman is the Eighth Holy Maiden.

There were two figures squatting in the grass, the summer withered grass was holding two bun-like buns, simple and rough tied with two black ropes, wearing a black ankle-length tunic skirt, and a pair of straw sandals on their feet.

But her eyes were shining, and Xia Kucao shook Bi Chen's arm curiously and said: "In the past, the way in which the Chosen Saints were born was all strange, I don't know how this year's Saints will be chosen." ”

Bi Chen hurriedly looked around, and said cautiously: "It's none of your business and mine, although the Wu clan is not connected to the outside world, but the hierarchy still has a strict distinction between respect and inferiority, the lowest slaves like you and me are not even considered medicine pickers, and they can't enter the lobby, how dare they dare to witness the demeanor of the saint, let alone be a saint."

Let's go back, we haven't even seen a shadow for a long time, and if my aunt finds out that we are gone, we will be punished again!"

After Bi Chen finished speaking, she pulled the summer withered grass, her palms were sweaty, and her courage was too small.

Xia Kucao sighed and narrowed her eyes, Bi Chen was right, my aunt didn't know if she was scary, but her method of spurring people was still quite scary.

But Xia Kucao was not afraid, but looking at Bi Chen's thin body, it was too embarrassing for her to sneak out with her, and she was about to promise to go back, when a woman suddenly came on the road ahead.

The summer withered grass looked attentive, and did not dare to speak again, the woman's hair was all tied up, and a golden hair ring was tied at the top of her head, and a ponytail was tied high, looking refreshed.

A long pink skirt covered the vamp, and a belt of the same color was tied around the waist, and a pink sachet hung from the belt, and the edge of the shoe revealed a white circle, which was a suede shoe made of silk.

She was followed by two little girls wearing white gardenias, and entered the ancestral hall together.

Xia Kucao smiled and bumped into Bi Chen, who was also squatting in the grass with her, and gestured with her eyes:

"It's really beautiful, the value of this trip, this is a first-level alchemist, yes, only this kind of first-level alchemist wearing a golden headband can be selected!"

Bi Chen sighed, scratched his hair and said weakly: "Although it is a doomed result, why am I sorry for you, in this way, won't you be blind to those medical books you have read all these years?"

"That's not going to happen, I don't read medical books for this matter, although I am a slave, I may also become a medicine collector in the future, you, read as many books as I do from today, you can't be a slave forever!"

Xia Dry grass pouted, and a golden headband, pink dress, and pink sachet flashed in her heart, and her heart was suddenly full of yearning!

"You are not a slave, you are a slave, and you still want to become a medicine picker, but it's a pity that your parents didn't give birth to you in the medicine picker's house!"

A person with a screeching voice suddenly appeared behind him, lifted the collars of Xia Kucao and Bi Chen and pulled them back, Xia Kucao was defenseless, the person turned on his back, lying on the ground, and only from the bottom up did he see that it was a fat aunt.

Her voice did not match her body shape at all, her voice was shrill and slender women, but her hun yuan body did not have a deep voice, she was the number one steward of the imperial slave house.

The aunt had no intention of sparing the two of them, and raised the whip in her hand and said viciously: "The slave is very busy, you two are good, hide here and be lazy!"

After speaking, the whip in his hand smashed down like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Xia Kucao rose up from the ground to block Bi Chen's front and received a whip firmly, although the strength was not so strong that the skin and flesh were broken, but the old wound must have broken again, and Xia Kucao felt the wetness on his back.

After receiving a whip, Xia Kucao pulled the stunned Bi Chen to kneel down and honestly admit his mistake: "Auntie, please punish, Bi Chen and I didn't mean to be lazy, we washed all the clothes before we took the time to sneak out of the slave house."

The most powerful person we have ever seen in the past is your aunt, our slave is the only one who looks at you, and the admiration is like a turbulent river, and the river is endless.

It's just that today we heard that there will be a lot of alchemists gathered in the front hall today, these alchemists have unique skills, and I was also blinded by lard for a while, and pulled Bi Chen, who has always been honest, to see, Bi Chen has obstructed many times, this matter is my fault, I hope my aunt will not punish Bi Chen!"

After saying that, Prunella barely showed an embarrassing and flattering smile!

"You don't have to quibble, neither of you can run, I used to think Bichen was an honest child, all of whom were brought by you lazy and eccentric guy.

Then again, these people are your turn to see? It is your duty to stay in the slave house and do a good job, if you come out and break into a big Buddha, it is not me who suffers?"

The fat aunt opened her round eyes and taught in a thin voice.

Xia Kucao waved his hand again and again: "No, no, we only dare to hide in the grass and peek, let's go back to the slave house!" said and prepared to get up.

The fat aunt pressed Prunella Grass's shoulder with one hand, and with a little force, Prunella Grass knelt on the ground, and Prunella Grass's back felt a pain, and she didn't dare to move again.

The fat aunt said contemptuously: "I haven't finished my sentence yet, did I get you up?"

As a slave, you should be a little conscious, don't be delusional if you can't climb high, what you just saw is the daughter of the patriarch, a first-level alchemist.

In time, when you reach the level of a super-grade alchemist, you can be invited to the palace to face the saint.

You have all been growing up in the Imperial Slave House since you were born, don't say that you haven't even seen a few super-grade alchemists at my age, let alone a holy woman!

It's not my aunt, I'll step on you, I still have to take a good look in the mirror!"

After speaking, he took the lead and walked back to the slave house with high spirits, Xia Kucao pulled Bichen to walk behind and muttered: "We are slaves, you are not slaves, why should slaves be embarrassed slaves!"

Frightened by these words, Bi Chen hurriedly pulled the sleeve of Xia Kucao's coat and warned her not to challenge the fat aunt again.
