Chapter 404: Old Things
Cai Yan held Zuo Ci's arm and said movingly: "Master, I think you must have been a lover when you were young. Yan'er doesn't leave, Yan'er wants to follow you to meet the fairies here. β
Zuo Ci looked at Cai Yan and asked softly, "Good boy, they are all afraid of me, aren't you afraid?"
"Because Shizu is not a terrible person, if you want to harm us, you can harm us a long time ago, why wait until today?"
"Hehe, yes, then you can come with me and visit this immortal. β
"Wait for me, you two, I'm going too. Zhang Ning couldn't help but be curious, and also ran over.
Shi Xin and the other four glanced at each other, only to smile bitterly and follow up.
In the midst of the mist stood a house, still carved out of ice, with doors, windows, and eaves. The dragon and phoenix are carved on it, the exquisite corners of the building, and the wavy-like tiles are just like the real ones.
"In such an environment, is there really a god living in it?" Everyone held their breath and walked slowly.
When I came to the door, I heard Zhang Ning exclaim, pointing to the top of his head and shouting, "Wow! β
Everyone followed her fingers, and a nine-foot-long white light shot from the sky to the roof, illuminating the whole house as if it were day.
One end of the white light plunged straight into the clouds, and there was no end in sight, and I didn't know where it came from.
Everyone had seen this white light for a long time, and it seemed even more magical up close. The chill here is unprecedentedly strong, but it is full of mysterious energy, and it seems that it has the function of restoring physical strength under Shi Xin's careful taste.
For this he was taken aback, the recovery function can be sensed here, so isn't the inside of the beam more powerful?
The crowd marveled and looked into the room. The interior is more delicately arranged, and what is surprising is that in addition to the crystal clear ice sculptures, there are also many colors.
Although faint, it is certain that it is a real plant, with green foliage and delicate flowers. Most of it is hidden in the white light, and a small part is revealed. The flowers and plants are high in the middle and low in all sides, and are arranged in a gradually rising circle.
A high platform is faintly visible inside the flowers, sitting in the center of the room. The high platform was completely hidden in the white light, the white light was too strong, and it was not clear what was on it at this distance, but since it was so arranged, it should be a very precious thing.
Zuo Ci led everyone to the door and stopped, but he was not in a hurry to enter immediately, turned around and sat on the steps, and motioned for them to sit too.
His eyes looked into the distance, his expression solemn, and he seemed to have infinite thoughts.
"Would you like to listen to the old man tell an old story?"
Zuo Ci's cultivation is superb, he is the master of Hua Tuo and others, he is older, and his life experience must be rich and colorful, and the story he wants to tell is naturally thrilling and wonderful.
At that moment, Cai Yan and Zhang Ning sat on either side of him, and Shi Xin and the others sat opposite them, quietly listening to Zuo Ci's story.
"It is said that about fifty years ago, during the reign of Emperor Huan. There is an unborn strange man named Nanhua Old Immortal. The old immortal studied heaven and man, did not ask about world affairs, and lived in seclusion and devoted himself to cultivation. There are various directions of cultivation, but each of them has a shocking art industry. The old immortal had four disciples and a daughter, all of whom had inherited a certain specialty from him. Hehe, it can only be a certain item, because what the old immortal has learned is too broad and profound, how can ordinary people do all the mathematics? But even if they learn one or two, it is enough to run rampant in the Han Dynasty, and they are invincible. β
"Since Nanhua Old Immortal is so powerful, how does the old man compare to him?" Zhang Ning said curiously.
Zuo Ci shook her head, feeling that she was too stupid and naΓ―ve to ask: "Compared with the old immortal fifty years ago, I am still like a shining fire compared to the sun and the moon, what do you say?"
Zhang Ning smacked his tongue.
"The eldest disciple of the old immortal is mature and steady, and is good at the way of immortals; the second disciple is bold and chivalrous, and his external skills are unparalleled; the fourth disciple is flexible and the most proficient in the way of ghosts; as for the third disciple, he is the one with the lowest understanding, but he doesn't like to cultivate, and he only loves miscellaneous studies in his life. is the so-called greedy and chewy, and it is the most mediocre one under the old immortal sect. β
Zhang Ning smiled and said: "For example, carving ice, raising flowers, taming fish, etc., are the favorite things of the three disciples. β
Seeing that Zhang Ning did not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, and always liked to interrupt Zuo Ci's words, Zhou Tai frowned, his face sank like water, and he said in a low voice, "Ning'er ......"
Zhang Ning stuck out his tongue at him, but he didn't dare to say anything more.
Zuo Ci didn't think it was wrong, and sighed, "Ning'er is right, I wasted my cultivation, and now I think about it, I really shouldn't." But because he learned enough, he actually helped himself later, so he was able to survive. β
"The old fairy is a woman, and she is naturally obedient to her daughter, like a jewel. It's just that this girl has to be well-behaved, carved jade, and often pleases the old immortals. β
Zhang Ning just wanted to ask, but when he saw Zhou Tai glaring angrily, he finally swallowed the words back into his stomach. Then I thought about it: My father is also a heavenly master, and he didn't give birth to me when he was in his forties, Taoism was originally quiet and inactive, and he went as he pleased, but I made a fuss.
"In addition to her father, who is full of mana, the little junior sister also has four senior brothers with extraordinary abilities to take care of her, and she really responds to her needs, even if she wants the moon in the sky and the iron needle at the bottom of the sea, she does not hesitate to get it for her. And the old immortal usually concentrates on cultivation and often leaves the teacher's door, so the four senior brothers are duty-bound to take care of their junior sisters. I remember when my little sister was ten years old, she saw lychee in a book, and she had to cry and scream to eat it. Everyone found rare treasures in order to distract her attention, but this third senior brother, who had just learned the art of transplanting, moved a seedling back from Lingnan thousands of miles away, took care of it day and night, and promised that the little junior sister would definitely be the first person in the Han Dynasty to eat lychee next year. β
It's just that the little junior sister is a child after all, and she only said "The third senior brother is the best" on the first day, and she was amused by the treasures of the other three senior brothers, and she had long forgotten about the lychee. The third senior brother spent his true qi to urge the lychee tree to grow, and sure enough, the little junior sister was allowed to eat the first lychee of the previous year, but the third senior brother also suffered from excessive consumption for a long time and fell seriously ill. β
"At that time, the little junior sister was already eleven years old, and she first understood the relationship between men and women, and felt that this third senior brother was definitely not a brother and sister to herself, so she gradually became estranged......"
Zuo Ci sighed, his sad face almost wanted to twitch, "That's right, the senior brother is mature and steady, because he has been practicing the immortal path all the year round, the jade tree is in the wind, and he looks elegant; the second senior brother has made friends, he is bold and righteous, well-informed, and famous; the fourth senior brother is wise and scheming, can speak well, and changes all kinds of tricks to please the junior sister." Who would be like the third senior brother, with reckless qualifications, keeping some inexplicable oaths all day long, and drilling the horns of the bull. β
At this time, it was Cai Yan's turn to hold back, "Master, that's not necessarily. The little junior sister was young at that time and didn't understand the truth, maybe she admired the appearance of the senior brother, the temperament of the second senior brother, and the intelligence of the fourth senior brother, but when she grew up, she would definitely understand that the third senior brother was the one who loved her the most. β
Zuo Ci was obviously stunned for a moment, looked at Cai Yan in a daze, and then said with a wry smile: "This matter, we have been going around for decades, and the result is Yan'er's words." Actually, before Aunt Mei died, she did say so. β
"On the deathbed?"
Everyone was taken aback, everyone knew that the third senior brother was Zuo Ci, and Aunt Mei was the little junior sister.
But...... The little junior sister is dead, and everything on the sacred mountain is actually arranged for a dead person?
Zuo Ci gave the answer.
"This room behind us is where my sister's body is parked. I've been here for thirty years. Zuo Ci's tone became nihilistic, "Everyone said, the environment here doesn't look like a fairy palace? β
Zuo Ci's tone is of course lingering and compassionate, and even a little neurotic, but he is too infatuated and can be described as a demon.
Everyone's heads were even more buzzing, and they were cold and swishing, if it weren't for Zuo Ci's next sentence, everyone would have thought that he had gone crazy for love.
"This place can not only preserve the body of my sister, but also bring her back to life and return to the world. And I brought you here, and even taught you how to level up, for this purpose. β
This is the most fantastical and least unlike words that Shi Xin has heard since he came to this world. Can a person who is really dead, and who has been lying dead for thirty years, really come back to life?
Shi Xin didn't believe it, and almost everyone in the room didn't.
