81 Holy Emperor of Hundred Flowers
The scorching hot sun finally converged its brilliance and quietly hid behind Dayang Mountain. The afterglow spreads out from behind the mountain and falls on the red leaves of the newly sprouted Cinnamomum sinensis, reflecting the intoxicating red.
Although there were only two acres of sweaty dry land, Cao Chen was still busy for many days. From sowing seeds to irrigation, fertilization, and weeding, Uncle Liu helped a lot. As an old way of cleaning up the spiritual field, Uncle Liu squatted in the field, holding a dry tobacco in his mouth, and shouted at Cao Chen, who was loosening the soil, "Be careful, don't dare to hurt the rhizome, although the price of the heart grass is not high, it is extremely delicate, and if you hurt a little, you will die." β
"Uh-huh, I remember." Cao Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead, held a small shovel in his hand, and carefully turned over the soil, "Uncle Liu, this heart grass is so worthless, why don't you plant something valuable?" β
"What do you know about your baby?" Uncle Liu said, "As far as our spiritual field in Niuwei Village is concerned, the spiritual energy is too thin, that is, it can grow a heart-killing grass, and other spiritual grasses eat too much of the field and can't grow." Moreover, it only takes three months for the Heart Grass to mature, and other spirit grasses take at least half a year. If you delay these two months, you will delay planting Huanglinghua in the coming year, and it will be a big loss. β
"Okay." Cao Chen snorted, stood up, beat his waist, and said with a bitter face, "Oh, I'm tired." β
Uncle Liu laughed, also stood up, and said, "Okay, you do it slowly, I'll go back, old man." It's the Hundred Flowers Festival in two days, and you and Chen Zhao don't have any relatives anyway, so come to my house for the festival. Your aunt bought a whole spirit sheep from Niutou Town, saying that she wanted to leave the best sheep head for you. β
"Hehe, it's better to be an aunt, unlike Uncle Liu, you know that you watch me work, and you don't say help."
Uncle Liu laughed, knowing that Cao Chen was joking, and he didn't mind, so he took out a pill from the storage ring, handed it to Cao Chen, and said, "The little cloud pill I refined yesterday, you can give it to Chen Zhao." β
"Thank you." Cao Chen took Xiao Yundan and thanked Uncle Liu.
Uncle Liu answered, turned around and walked towards a small village not far away.
In the village, the smoke curls up, and it is dinner time.
Cao Chen glanced at the field, pouted, put away the shovel, and returned to a dilapidated house in the field.
The house was a few years old, the adobe walls were mottled, it had just rained a few days ago, and the thatched roof always smelled of hay.
"Uncle Liu is leaving?" On a bed in the corner of the room, Chen Zhao was lying on it. His face was embarrassed, pale without a trace of blood. On a hot day, his body was covered with two layers of thick bedding.
"Well, the old man's health is worse than half a year ago, I'm afraid he won't have a few days to live." Cao Chen said, walked over, carefully helped Chen Zhao up, poured another glass of water, and fed Chen Zhao to eat Xiaoyun Dan. "Do you have any good ways to save him? If it weren't for him, we'd be doomed a long time ago. β
Thanks to Uncle Liu, fortunately, he happened to meet Chen Zhao and Cao Chen, who were seriously injured, and kindly helped them, and even gave them two acres of dry land and this dilapidated house.
The teleportation array in the Dragon Gate Inn, although it forcibly broke through the space and teleported Chen Zhao and Cao Chen here, it almost killed Chen Zhao and Cao Chen.
Chen Zhao, who was originally at the end of the strong crossbow, was already seriously injured after fighting against Long Xiang, and was severely injured by the power of space distortion, and he became what he is now.
Chen Zhao took the pill, coughed for a while, and then twisted his brows in pain, and let Cao Chen put him down, before he said, "Don't let Uncle Liu consume spiritual power to refine the pill for me, I am in this situation now, even if I take the pill, it is useless." β
"It's hard to say." Cao Chen said, "What is the name of the ghost when you are in pain at night." β
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly, hesitated, and said, "Uncle Liu is in a similar situation to me, my life force has been exhausted, and the medicine stone is hopeless. Unless he can break through the foundation building and cultivation, and step into the golden pill. However, his qualifications are too poor, and it is probably impossible for him to successfully cross the tribulation and enter Jindan. β
"Not necessarily." Cao Chen said, "If you can refine an anti-spirit elixir similar to the Returning Qing Pill, you may be able to help him." "If you have the memory of the Blood Moon, you naturally have the knowledge of the Blood Moon." But...... How to refine the Reverse Spirit Repayment Pill? I really didn't have an idea for a while. Thinking of this question, Cao Chen was a little depressed, and said a little depressed, "Forget it, the Hundred Flowers Festival is coming, I want to refine some gadgets and give them to Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu as gifts." β
The Hundred Flowers Festival is the biggest festival in the entire cultivation worldβat least in this cultivation world.
According to legend, more than 33,000 years ago, there was a catastrophe between heaven and earth. It is not known exactly what caused the catastrophe. It is only said that the aura between heaven and earth suddenly reversed, causing all the cultivators to explode and die, and only the legendary Hundred Flowers Holy Emperor did not die. Later, the Holy Emperor of the Hundred Flowers spread his own cultivation of the "Reverse Heaven Technique" to the world, and the cultivation of the true world was continued. According to the "Biography of the Holy Emperor of Hundred Flowers" written by Qingyuan Sanren, a disciple of the Holy Emperor of Hundred Flowers, the Holy Emperor of Hundred Flowers was originally known as Hundred Flowers, studied under Yaochi Zhenren, and belonged to the Yaochi Sect.
It's a pity that even though the Hundred Flowers Holy Emperor is extremely talented, he can't escape the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao.
Twenty-nine thousand years ago, the Holy Emperor of the Hundred Flowers died of exhaustion of his vital power, and was buried in the Hundred Flowers Tomb in the Valley of Injuries by his disciple Qingyuan Sanren. It was also in that year that the ten major sects of the Xiuzhen Realm jointly signed and respected the Hundred Flowers as the "Holy Emperor", which was the year and the first year of the Holy Calendar.
The Hundred Flowers Festival, that is, the day when the Holy Emperor of the Hundred Flowers spread the "Recipe Against the Heavens".
In the summer of the twenty-ninth thousand eight hundred and forty-second year of the holy calendar, Cao Chen and Chen Zhao had been in this world for half a year.
Chen Zhao believes that the half a year here may only be eighteen days compared to Feishalu. But for himself, it was really half a year.
There is less and less time left.
There is still no clue how to deal with the Weeping Blood Sword.
Long Xuan hadn't appeared yet, obviously using the Dragon Tribulation twice had done too much damage to him, and he needed some time to recuperate. The only "good news" is that Cao Chen's cultivation has finally made a great breakthrough, and he has reached the sixth layer of condensation!
Chen Zhao really didn't understand why Cao Chen would attribute such a trivial matter to "good news", and even danced happily.
In half a year, her cultivation has improved a little, is it worth her to be so happy?
"Hahaha! It's done! Cao Chen suddenly laughed, holding a strange-shaped thing in his hand, and said prominently, "What's the matter?" β
"What's that?"
"Massager." Cao Chen said with a smile, "Aunt Liu'er doesn't often have leg pain, the six claws of this thing just grab the leg, and it only needs a little spiritual power to automatically massage." β
"Uh...... Well, a good thing. Chen Zhao said.
"What tone." Cao Chen sighed, "I know this thing isn't good, but I have to give a gift." Forget it, so be it, I'm going to cook, what do you want to eat? β
"Whatever." Chen Zhao said.
"I knew you would say that!" Cao Chen complained, turned around and walked out of the room.
On the right hand side of the room, there is a simple shed, which is Cao Chen's kitchen. Looking at the vegetables fried in the iron pot, Cao Chen suddenly sighed.
Could this be the fate of the old lady? Why are you always waiting for men?
Suddenly thinking of the sword master and gratuitous, I don't know what happened to the two of them now.
Sighing softly, Cao Chen flipped over the greens in the pot, and thought of Huang Shaoyan again. Now, she has determined that the woman who died and originally held the Weeping Blood Sword was Yunsheng. In that chaotic memory, in addition to about Qingyun Valley and Huang Shaoyan, there are also about the royal mausoleum and Chu Fan.
"Heh......" Thinking that Lietian actually fell in love with Chu Fan, Cao Chen couldn't help but want to be happy.
That Blood Moon's former subordinate, the chief of guard of the Sixth Man Emperor, the iron-blooded man who was once praised as a "natural anti-bone" and "the first madman", and the monarch killer who once killed the Fifth Man Emperor and supported the Sixth Man Emperor to ascend to the throne, actually fell in love with Chu Fan!
Thinking of Hunting Heaven, Cao Chen was suddenly stunned.
In Cao Chen's memories of the Blood Moon, there was a conversation between the Blood Moon and Hunter Sky that came to mind.
After a while, Cao Chen returned to the room with the prepared meal, and smiled at Chen Zhao, "I have thought of a way to help Uncle Liu successfully enter Jindan." β
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly, "Don't say that you use the strongest cultivation to pull out the seedlings and help them grow, you and I don't have this ability." β
"Of course not." Cao Chen helped Chen Zhao up and put a small table on Chen Zhao's body as he said, "Lietian once told Blood Moon that with his ability, it was originally not enough to kill the Fifth Human Emperor. However, Lietian is a ruthless person, and he has forcibly improved his cultivation. β
Chen Zhao was stunned for a moment, took the dishes and chopsticks handed by Cao Chen, and said, "In this way, presumably the price he paid must be not small." β
"Yes, but if you can live a few hundred more years and successfully step into Jindan, it will be worth it for Uncle Liu." Cao Chen said, "Besides, Uncle Liu doesn't necessarily have to pay the price, others can also pay for him." β
Chen Zhao frowned slightly, looked at Cao Chen, and said, "What price?" β
"You don't care." Cao Chen smiled and said, "Eat, try this, Aunt Liu sent it in the morning, it seems to taste good." β
Chen Zhao saw that Cao Chen didn't answer, and he didn't ask.
After eating, Cao Chen meditated and practiced for a while, and the night was late.
With a yawn, Cao Chen crossed Chen Zhao's body, climbed onto the bed, got into the quilt, and then hugged Chen Zhao, and couldn't help but shiver, "Hiss...... You're getting colder and colder. β
"Hmm." Chen Zhao responded.
Cao Chen secretly used his spiritual power to make his body become hotter and hotter, hugged Chen Zhao tightly, and said, "Sleep, sleep." Wake up early tomorrow and I'm going to go to Niutou Town. β
Chen Zhao pursed his lips slightly, turned his face to look at Cao Chen's face, who was close at hand, and said softly, "Is it because of the memory of the blood moon that you asked you to help me like this?" β
"You're thinking too much, I'm just kind." Cao Chen closed his eyes and said, "Besides, if you hadn't run away with me, I would have died at the hands of Long Xiang's slut." "With the memory of the Blood Moon, Cao Chen also knew the grievances between Long Xiang and the Yao Chi Sect. For Long Xiang, it was her biggest dream to exterminate the Yaochi Sect.
Chen Zhao didn't know if Cao Chen was telling the truth, logically speaking, Cao Chen had the memory of the blood moon, and he would definitely have the feelings of the blood moon, as for whether this feeling would affect her, it was unknown. She didn't want to admit it, so Chen Zhao didn't ask anymore. After being stunned for a moment, Chen Zhao asked again, "In this Dayang Mountain Range, the land is barren and the aura is thin, and Jin Dan can be regarded as a master. You have six layers of condensation veins, and you are not weak. It's enough to go to Niutou Town, casually help people refine magic weapons, or be a cultivation teacher for other children. Why farm here? I don't think you like farming very much. β
"Uh...... Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there will inevitably be disputes. Cao Chen said, "Isn't it good to live quietly here, don't worry about grudges with people, and don't worry about being hunted down?" Speaking of this, Cao Chen exhaled and said, "When I was a child, I envied those cultivators, thinking that the life of flying away was very interesting, but now I understand that being able to live a peaceful and stable life and grow old quietly is the greatest happiness." β
Chen Zhao sighed and said, "Thousands of years of memory, thousands of years of loneliness, it's uncomfortable." β
Cao Chen smiled softly, "I'm tired, let's sleep." β
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this for you to hold the Weeping Blood Sword......"
"I didn't ...... It's all right......"
Listening to the suppressed sobbing sound around him, the corners of Chen Zhao's eyes were wet. "I'm sorry ......"
Cao Chen clutched Chen Zhao's shoulders tightly, his nails sank into Chen Zhao's flesh, and his low, suppressed cry finally turned into a howl.
"My body has been ruined by the Heavenly Tribulation! Do you understand the pain of being out of the flesh and becoming a spirit? "This is the memory of the Blood Moon.
"I was killed by my own brother! And spent more than 3,000 years in a bottomless black grave! "It's still a memory of the Blood Moon.
"The man I love the most is plotting against me! Chen Zhao! I understand why you did that, but I'm so uncomfortable......" It's still a memory of the Blood Moon.
"The people of Qingyun Valley are all dead...... I took the Weeping Blood Sword, killed my clan uncle with my own hands, and was tormented by the resentment of countless souls in the royal mausoleum...... "This is Yunshang's memory."
"Countless fellow disciples of the Ning Yuan Sect, including my senior brothers and sisters, and even the master who adopted me and taught me, all died without a corpse. The division station was also razed to the ground. I did it! "This is the memory of the Yuanying master before Yunsheng......
"Countless wraiths wail in my head! Their hideous faces always linger! "This is the resentment of all the cultivators who died from the Weeping Blood Sword......
Chen Zhao endured the pain in his body, turned around with difficulty, and hugged Cao Chen into his arms.
Chen Zhao...... Help me...... I'm so tired......" Cao Chen shouted hoarsely as he lay on Chen Zhao's chest.
"I will, I will." Chen Zhao had tears in his eyes and muttered in a low voice.
The next day, early in the morning.
Cao Chen lay on the bed, stretched lazily, rubbed his eyes again, picked out the eye droppings from the corners of his eyes, yawned, and stared for a while before sitting up. "I almost forgot, I need to go to Niutou Town."
"What are you going to do?" Chen Zhao asked.
"Find something." Cao Chen got out of bed, walked out, took back a urinal in a moment, and then helped Chen Zhao up, while waiting for Chen Zhaochen to solve it, he said, "Uncle Liu is good to us, we can't watch him die and not help." Niutou Town is small, but it should be able to find what I need. Seeing the scratches on Chen Zhao's shoulders at a glance, Cao Chen's face was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry yesterday, it's a little out of control." β
"It's okay."
"There are so many memories that sometimes it's hard to suppress." Cao Chen said, "I think that when I get through the first tribulation and reach the Jindan stage, I should be able to completely suppress those memories and emotions." β
"Uh, Jindan...... That's a long way off, and I probably won't be able to wait for that day. Chen Zhao said with a smile.
"Well, you should die quickly, the old lady of the province will wait for you all day long." Cao Chen said and took the urinal out. After a while, she turned back again, put Chen Zhao in her homemade wheelchair, pushed Chen Zhao out, and put him in the sun, "You bask here, I will come back before dark, and I won't give you breakfast, lest you pull your crotch." β
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly, looked at Cao Chen, and after a moment, said, "Be happy." β
"Ahh Cao Chen waved his hand, took out a rough-made thing from the storage ring, rode on it, waved his hand at Chen Zhao again, and said, "Let's go." β
Chen Zhao laughed, watched Cao Chen leave on the thing she had refined herself called a "bicycle", and shouted, "Come back early." β
Chen Zhao's smile gradually retracted, and his expression became gloomy. He suddenly snorted coldly and said, "You've already recovered, haven't you?" β
"Hey, I can't bear to disturb your two-person world." Long Xuan's voice sounded behind Chen Zhao.
Walking in front of Chen Zhao, the smile on Long Xuan's face turned into a sneer, "You taught her the method of sacrificial refining of the Yunhai Sect, and you refined the Weeping Blood Sword and the Dragon Slaying Knife!" What a vicious mind! β
"There's no way, with her ability, she can't bear the resentment of the Weeping Blood Sword alone, you help her bear some, it's nothing to you now. Moreover, if she hadn't embedded your dragon eye in the dragon slaying knife, you wouldn't have been able to make a machine spirit. You help her once, and it's not much. β
Long Xuan snorted coldly, gave Chen Zhao a roll of his eyes, and said, "You also have a crush on this village girl?" β
"Heh, what's the point of not looking at it? You know, I'm running out of life. Chen Zhao laughed, "More than a year, it's gone by in a blink of an eye." β
Long Xuan was stunned for a moment and said, "It's nothing bad, I'm dead, and I don't have to fool around in this bullshit world anymore." β
"Heh, I'll help you become a spirit, you promise me one thing."
"Say."
"Help me take care of her."
"I'm not interested, I can only promise you to help her solve the Weeping Blood Sword."
Chen Zhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you have a way?" β
"You don't care about that."
"Okay, that's a deal."
"The dragon's soul is immortal, and the oath will not change!"
