Volume 2 Chapter 5 [Princess Qinglan]
Concubine Hua and Concubine Li are also considered life and death enemies, but under Wang Rui's mediation, both of them agreed to stop temporarily. Wang Rui also asked them how they practiced, and it was difficult for people who died of resentment to cultivate unless they were guided.
Sure enough, after Wang Rui asked this question, both Concubine Hua and Concubine Li mentioned a mysterious monk who appeared when they came back from the dead and became half-human, half-ghost.
This person has always been wearing a black robe and a hood, and Concubine Hua and Concubine Li have not seen his true face.
The mysterious man claimed to be a certain monk who passed by occasionally, because he saw that there was resentment in this Shenyue Lake, he knew that there were people who died in vain below, and because of the great resentment, he could not enter the six realms of reincarnation, and he couldn't bear it, so he came down to see it.
This person also said that he came from an immortal sect that specialized in cultivating evil qi, death qi and resentment, which was just right for Concubine Hua and Concubine Li to cultivate, so he stayed at the bottom of this lake for several months, passed on a technique to them, and gave each of them a magic weapon.
Concubine Hua and Concubine Li are also quite qualified, and they have achieved success in their own cultivation, and they also continued to teach other ghosts at the bottom of the lake, gradually forming two major power groups.
However, as ghost cultivators, especially in their realm, they are far from enough to leave this Shenyue Lake, once they are irradiated by the sun, they will be wiped out, and they will not even have a chance to enter reincarnation.
The mysterious man then left, never returned, but before leaving, he told Concubine Hua and Concubine Li that there were too many innocent people in the palace, and that there was a life under almost every ground ground, and that the emperor and queen were the lonely people sitting on the throne of thousands of dry bones. Therefore, he hoped that after the two of them had achieved cultivation, they could attract more people who had died in vain to join in and give them the same creation.
It wasn't until Wang Rui arrived that Concubine Hua and Concubine Li saw the second cultivator.
"Two mothers, originally people outside me shouldn't have said anything, but this mysterious monk you are talking about is very likely to be an evil cultivator, I don't know what his purpose is, but I have to speculate with malice. The Son of Heaven must have been aware of the abnormality and uneasiness in the palace, so he sent a request to our Xutian Sect, Princess Qinglan is very likely to be a key behind this huge conspiracy, the two Niangniang suffered misfortunes, sank to the bottom of the lake, and now become a ghost cultivator, I can't bear it. I only hope that the two Niangniang will help me find out the truth of the conspiracy behind this palace, and then I will fulfill my promise to let Niangniang and the other ghosts re-enter the cycle and put an end to this grievance." Wang Rui decided to use Concubine Hua and Concubine Li to help him learn more about the truth, otherwise Princess Qinglan was likely to encounter an accident.
Concubine Hua and Concubine Li both nodded in agreement, and in the face of Wang Rui's strong strength, the two did not dare to have different hearts. In addition, they have been trapped at the bottom of the lake for a long time, unable to escape, and have long been exhausted, Wang Rui gave them a hope.
Before leaving, Wang Rui left each of them a rune treasure for protection in a critical moment, and he was not afraid that the two of them would drop the gun and aim at him, the initiative of the rune treasure was in his hands, and he could recapture or destroy it at any time.
In addition, he left each of them a transmission note, which can be used in case of a major discovery or need for help.
However, the pills on his body are not suitable for ghost cultivators, so he can only give up, after some discussion, the two sides said goodbye, Wang Rui's feet gave birth to electric light, and swam towards the top of the lake with a bang.
"Is this guy really willing to help us?" Concubine Li couldn't help but ask after Wang Rui left.
Concubine Hua glanced at Concubine Li, and at this time it was only the two of them, and the other ghosts all went back separately.
"Do we have any use for it?" Concubine Hua sneered.
Concubine Li thought for a while, shook her head, and said, "People die like lights go out, and now we are just ants, now that I have the opportunity, then I have to fight."
"Naturally, but this Gongke is not just for himself, since someone wants to deal with my Yongshu, it is natural for him to pay the price." Concubine Hua said viciously, and then brushed her sleeves and left, she promised Wang Rui not to fight with Concubine Li for the time being, but she would not cooperate, just rely on their own abilities.
Besides, Wang Rui, after breaking through the water, one turned over and landed in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, only to find that in addition to his companions, there were also Princess Qinglan and her personal maid.
"Brother Rui, you're finally out." Chen Qi came over worriedly, a little emotional, and even he suspected that if no one was present, she would throw herself into his arms.
Chen Fuzhi also breathed a sigh of relief, Wang Rui had been going for two hours, and he was worried that something had happened, but fortunately, he finally returned safely.
"Sister Qi, I'm fine, but I just found some conditions below. Big brother, I'm worried about you." Wang Rui first comforted Chen Qi and Chen Fuzhi, and then looked at Princess Qinglan.
Since the princess fell into the lake a few days ago, she was rescued by him, because she was afraid that she would be suffocated, so she used the spiritual power of Koudu to induce vomiting, and the two were very close at the time, almost kissing, so Wang Rui also received a slap, and afterwards, Princess Qinglan also knew that she had wronged a good person, but the two never met again.
"Thank you for saving your life a few days ago." Princess Qinglan bowed down, and the maid behind her bowed and kowtowed.
Wang Rui gave birth to a force in the air, helped Princess Qinglan and her maid, and said, "Princess doesn't have to be like this, since we have agreed to Your Majesty's request, we will naturally do our best to protect you."
"Is it just because of my father's request?" When Princess Qinglan heard this, her eyes were inexplicably dim, Chen Qi on the side read the princess's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a trace of jealousy in her heart, and looked at Wang Rui again, and saw that he didn't notice it, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Gongzu is only a mortal, but he is pampered and beautiful, which is far from what she can compare, as a woman, she is naturally a little worried about any woman who is close to Wang Rui.
Wang Rui is actually very emotionally blank, so naturally he doesn't understand why this princess is a little depressed, but when she falls into the water, she has palpitations.
However, he was not ready to tell her for the time being that Concubine Hua and Concubine Li had become ghost cultivators at the bottom of the lake, this kind of thing was too unbelievable for mortals, and it might not be a good thing to know about it.
Princess Qinglan came here to find out how the truth investigation of her falling into the water that day was, but Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi didn't have too many clues for the time being, and simply told her that there might be some evil in the lake, and she should try not to approach or come here in the future.
Obviously, Princess Qinglan was not satisfied with this explanation, so she waited here until Wang Rui appeared.
After listening to Chen Fuzhi and Chen Qi's relays, Wang Rui nodded and invited Princess Qinglan to walk alone with him nearby.
Princess Qinglan's eyes were shining, and she simply agreed, which made Chen Qi worry again.
The two walked out of the lake pavilion, came to the shore, and then walked towards a garden near this place, which was originally the cold palace of Concubine Hua, that is, Princess Qinglan's mother, but later after Concubine Hua was given death by the Son of Heaven, no one came over anymore, and it became extremely dilapidated. But the original garden in the palace is still preserved, and it is still a little bit like it was back then.
"When I was a child, my mother used to take me here to play games with me, and my father would take time to visit us every day. It's a pity that Concubine Li continued to compete for favor and provoke, and my father came here for a lot less time, and my mother was also very unhappy, and even scolded my father in private, and no longer accompanied me to play here." Princess Qinglan stretched out her hand and kept touching the bushes on both sides, revealing the delicate appearance of a girl.
Wang Rui listened behind her, interjecting from time to time, he knew the anguish in the heart of this Qinglan princess. In the past, she may have thought that her mother died of illness, but now she probably knows that she was given death by her father, which makes her extremely dissatisfied with her father.
"Later, the mother concubine was implicated in the witch Gu case and fell violently...... and died...... I ......" Princess Qinglan has burst into tears when she says this, maybe in front of a stranger, but she can open her heart.
"Princess, the royal family of the Zhou Kingdom only has one chance to ask our Xutian Sect to do one thing for him every thirty years, and in the previous several requests, there has never been a request like this one, just to protect a princess." Wang Rui opened his mouth and said, feeling that he needed to say a few words fairly.
Princess Qinglan's emotions were a little excited, she turned to stare at him and asked, "Are you saying that I am going to be grateful to my father for this?"
"You have to feel his feelings, I know it's hard, but you have to feel it. I don't have the right to say anything about the grievances between your father and your mother, but your father is very fond of you, and he does not hesitate to give you almost once in his life the opportunity to seek the fairy gate, and his love for the princess is understandable." After Wang Rui finished speaking, he walked forward again, Princess Qinglan was silent for a while, lifted her skirt and immediately chased after her.
Princess Qinglan panted a little and said, "Wang ...... Can I call you Brother Wang?"
"Yes, apart from being Qi Refiners and princesses, you and I are just mayflies in the world." Wang Rui nodded, she seemed to have listened to what she said just now.
The communication between Princess Qinglan and Wang Rui became more and more open, and from time to time she asked him about the stories of immortal cultivators, and Wang Rui also told her about some interesting or peculiar or dangerous experiences in her nearly eighty years of cultivation career, which made Princess Qinglan so addicted that she couldn't wait to leave her identity as a princess and go to cultivate immortals with him.
However, after Wang Rui tested the spiritual energy for her, he found that the princess's spiritual energy value was extremely strange, not a positive number, but a negative number, and it was the first time he encountered it.
Seeing Wang Rui's expression, Princess Qinglan lowered her head gloomily, thinking that she was destined to have no chance with cultivating immortals, but Wang Rui still remembered the information that she was the "Xuanyin Body".
"Princess, don't be discouraged, everyone has their own opportunities, I just can't judge your qualifications because of my lack of cultivation, it's not that you don't have immortal fate." Hearing this, Princess Qinglan regained her confidence.
Wang Rui didn't know anything about the Xuanyin body, but he faintly felt that this Qinglan princess might be a key key.
