Chapter 130: Thirty years of sword light, life and death
Day 2.
"The unfilial disciple Zhou Lie can no longer serve the teacher, so ...... Gone ......."
According to the insider, Zhou Lie suddenly felt it, sat cross-legged on Hua Xie, his mind began to be blurry, and he muttered in his mouth, and since then he has been sitting down.
Chen Sheng, who heard the news, shook his body and leaned back in his chair, feeling tired like never before.
His figure runs through Zhou Lie's life, and Zhou Lie's influence on him is also very profound.
It's a master and apprentice, and it's like a parent-child.
He watched Zhou Lie grow up, from the hard cultivation of children to teenagers, to the marriage of young people, the joy of having children, the calmness of middle age in an instant, the sadness of losing his wife and children in the future, and the lonely departure in his old age.
One hundred and five years was an inconspicuous time for the Immortals, but he felt that it was a long time.
He seems to have spent his whole life in this experience, and he deeply felt the ruthlessness of the world and the fleeting.
"Little Weekly, ......"
Lu Zhu lowered his head and wiped his tears there, Chen Sheng regarded Zhou Lie as a parent, how could she not, the two had no heirs, and Zhou Lie's existence filled the vacancy.
Today, Zhou Lie passed away, and the sadness in her heart was no shallower than Chen Sheng.
"It's nothing, I'm here."
Chen Sheng was sad in his heart, but when he saw that Lu Zhu was crying sadly, he had to step forward to comfort him.
He's always there, and he won't let anyone who cares about him not find him.
Until, he is still there, but the people he cares about will not be there, and he can bear everything alone.
"Well, you're here."
Lu Zhu threw herself into Chen Sheng's arms and felt very warm, this is a good person, extremely powerful, but he can always take care of her in the subtleties.
There is a tiger in the heart and sniffs the roses.
This is part of her perception of Chen Sheng.
Zhou Lie was buried on a hill next to the medicine house, and Chen Sheng flew over to see him.
In front of the tombstone, the green beads were incense, and Chen Sheng was burning paper, saying something in a low voice.
Not far from the two, there were many people standing, including the alchemist of the medicine house, and the relatives of Zhou Lie.
However, these people were very knowledgeable and did not bother the two.
Even the people of the Zhou family can understand that the emotions between them and Zhou Lie are not comparable to these two.
After a set of procedures, the funeral was over and the crowd dispersed.
"Teacher, I'm watching you here."
At night, Chen Sheng was in the Longxing Palace, holding a candle, and he could see the tomb on the hill at once, and he felt a little more stable in his heart, and gradually walked out of his sadness.
Zhou Lie's family, the momentum in the medicine house weakened, and there were several old people who secretly poked and poked the recommendation of the new candidates for succession, but they were suppressed by Chen Sheng.
The truth is, this is not an urgent matter.
He needs to sort out his mood, at least for the next few years, and he won't think about it.
Next.
The medicine house is running steadily, Chen Sheng is in power, there is not too much noise, whether it is the old man of the medicine house or the faction, they are working in harmony.
this day.
There is an old man in the medicine house, and he is a person who has made a great contribution to the medicine house.
During his reign, the medicine house had already developed very well, laying a solid foundation for Chen Sheng, and only then did he soar to the sky.
"Shen Lao."
Chen Sheng was a little surprised, but he also gave him enough respect, this person was very kind to him, so that he rightfully inherited the position of the elder of the medicine house, and also gave him enlightenment when refining the golden liquid Great Dan.
After entering the inner door, the two discussed the knowledge of Dan Dao many times, and they can be called fellow practitioners.
"I haven't seen you in a long time."
Shen Lao is very kind, his appearance has not changed much, his hair is combed neatly, his clothes are clean, but he is much older.
"Yes, it's always been in the form of letters."
In Chen Sheng's heart, there was something strange about him, this person had broken away from the outer gate as early as ninety-eight years ago and had been serving in the inner gate.
Today, how did you come back?
"I want to come back to the medicine house to have a look."
Shen Lao's words were plain, but his eyes looked at the medicine house, revealing a bit of reminiscence.
His feelings for Yaolu are no shallower than Chen Sheng's, and he also spent most of his life here before he transferred to the inner gate.
"This is to test the performance of the juniors."
Chen Sheng said with a smile.
Over the years, he has worked diligently and hard, but he is not sorry.
"Ha ......"
Shen Lao also smiled, for other inheritors, they may need the affirmation of their predecessors to consolidate their power.
But Chen Sheng doesn't need it, the power of this descendant is now extremely prosperous, calling for wind and rain in the outer gate.
Even if he became a powerful elder in the inner gate, he was not qualified to put on a show.
Between the two, there is equality.
Whether it is from the Dan Dao rank or status, he, a senior, does not have the slightest advantage.
"That's a lot more buildings."
Walking in the medicine house, Shen Lao saw many unfamiliar buildings, which were no longer the original pattern.
"It has been renovated before, expanded to the number of thirty-six, and there is also a hall and an open-air square."
Chen Sheng explained that the bottom layer of the medicine house has shown explosive growth, and as a place of authority, it can only be expanded to accommodate more talents in order to better manage.
"It's different."
Shen Lao sighed, only to feel that everything was very strange, and said: "As the saying goes, things are people, but now even things have changed, and nothing can be left." ”
In this world, nothing is constant, everything is changing, becoming unrecognizable.
Then he completely disappeared, became dust, and dissipated between heaven and earth.
"Old Shen, why are you so depressed."
Chen Sheng always felt that something was wrong, Shen Lao's sudden arrival, and Xiao Se's state of mind, all revealed that something had happened.
"I'm dying......"
Shen Lao looked at Chen Sheng and said in an extremely calm tone.
"How can it be so fast, is there a dark disease, but it can continue to live."
Chen Sheng frowned, and estimated in his heart that it was indeed very different.
Shen Lao has been gone for almost a hundred years, even if he was still young when he left, but this period of time was too long for the foundation building realm.
He was a little reluctant, this should be his last close senior in the outer gate.
"I can't continue my life, and I've taken a lot of life-prolonging drugs."
Shen Lao shook his head, he was also a second-order top alchemist, the best at health preservation, and there was no shortage of cultivation resources.
As early as 30 years ago, he had taken a lot of life-prolonging drugs, and this year is his ultimate year.
"Is there anything you want to explain?"
Chen Sheng asked.
Shen Lao came out of the medicine house, and he is a person who has made great contributions to the medicine house, if there are descendants or disciples who want to return, he will take care of them.
"Nope."
Shen Lao still shook his head, he devoted himself to cultivation, used power as a tool, and entered the inner gate to ask for Jindan Dao, but after all, he didn't succeed, and he didn't think about it anymore.
Chen Chang sighed, Shen Lao was a pure cultivator, but he didn't even have the opportunity to dedicate a little bit of his heart to him, a junior.
When Shen Lao left, he left behind his second-order alchemist inheritance.
In the same year, Chen Sheng received the news that Shen Lao had passed away, and all his elders in the outer gate had withered.
……
Starry Night.
Chen Sheng sat on a small stone bench in the courtyard, holding a star box in his hand, analyzing the prohibitions on it.
Nearly a hundred years, he is still about 20% away from the progress before he can completely unravel it.
As the characters withered, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, he thought of the hidden river in the secret realm of the Xilong River, thought of the star box, and thought of the green beads.
But the more thoughts you have, the more troubles you have.
Boom!
Thinking about it, Chen Sheng simply stood up, took out the iron sword in his hand, and immediately went to the courtyard, facing the stars, and cultivated the star cutting sword technique.
He slashed out with a sword, the sword light shone, and the aura poured out, bringing the emptiness of the spirit and spirit, but the distracting thoughts in his heart were minus a few traces.
Comfortable!
This kind of ethereal realm of clarity in his heart fascinated Chen Sheng, he has been cultivating for a long time, and many people are fettered, which makes him feel bored, but he is reluctant to abandon it, so he can only hold on.
Slash against the stars tonight, sword after sword.
The sword is endless, and the sword is cathartic.
In the courtyard, the sword aura was in the sky, and the light of Xuan He shone into the night, and Chen Sheng's figure was not seen, only a cloud of light and shadow could be seen, as if time was distorted and moved to another world.
The starlight is reversed, and thirty years have rolled away, like a sword wind, like a rain of swords, extremely sharp, and many people and things have been defeated and destroyed.
Chen Sheng slashed the stars every night, but this thought of parting with sorrow was never extinguished, but had to decrease, suddenly increase and increase, and maintain a balance.
In the third year, Mu Rufeng, an old inner door elder with Chen Sheng, passed away.
In the seventh year, the Dafeng Daoist who had been buying pills from the medicine house no longer appeared, and according to a letter from his disciple who had grown up, he said that he had been seated.
In the fifteenth year, Cheng Yushu, He Zhi, Qi Luo and other old people in the medicine house left one after another, and the powerful older generation under Chen Sheng all withered clean.
The fifteenth to the twenty-sixth years were a period of tranquility.
It's a pity that in the twenty-seventh year, there was a gap between the five great immortal sects in the border land.
That year, the earth dragon turned over and brought out a buried underground palace, and the immortal cultivators of the Five Great Immortal Sects entered, saw many treasures, and fought very hard.
Among them, a volume of scriptures was torn apart, and the five great immortal sects each picked up a few pages.
No one took it seriously at the time.
The follow-up is that this scripture is very powerful, it expounds the higher realm, and there are earth-shattering clues hidden.
Since then, the killing and robbery surrounding the scriptures has swept the borderlands.
"The Law Enforcement Hall wants six thousand blood nourishing pills."
"Yuwu Hall wants five thousand top-grade Qi Condensing Pills, five thousand Blood Nourishing Pills, and one thousand Spirit Swallowing Pills."
"Three Feng Feng in the inner gate, I want four thousand rejuvenation pills."
"Outer Gate Qinghai Peak, a thousand top-grade Qi Condensation Pills."
"The Alchemy Hall requires thousands of first-order spirit grasses of various colors, the more the better."
……
"Use my place as a wishing fountain, and you can have whatever you want."
Chen Sheng did it in the side hall, looking through the documents sent by each vein, the more he looked at it, the more he wanted to scold, since the war, the pill in the medicine house was consumed, and it reached a terrifying situation.
At this time, it should have been a mutual compromise and the Quartet assisted.
Chen Sheng had the heart to go up, but the requirements of the various avenue veins were too outrageous, and he asked for too much.
The alchemists of the medicine house, day and night alchemy, can't supply it.
Generally speaking, these Dao veins are overreported, and they are not filled with personal pockets, or the war is scorching, and the supply of pills is inevitably not available, so for the normal supply of their own pills, they simply overreport.
What made him depressed was the Yuwu Palace, the war was together, and the cultivation resources of all parties were not enough, so he used the pills of the medicine house to convert and fill it, and really regarded the medicine house as a small treasury.
It's too much of the Dao veins of the inner gate, you won't go to the Alchemy Hall, why are you running to the outer gate.
Turning his head to look, he was almost angry to death, and the alchemy hall Tian shamelessly beat the autumn wind to him and asked for the spirit grass.
"The consumption is too great, and if it goes on like this, it will be a struggle for the family."
Scolding and scolding, Chen Sheng still has to make arrangements as appropriate, without the support of the elixir, the probability of death and injury of his own immortal cultivators will rise, and if one loses the other, it is defeat.
Therefore, in the case of equal strength, war is to fight for the bottom of the family to see who can afford it.
After Chen Sheng cut the Dao veins that he could give pills by half, he began to divide the shares, and let the alchemists of the thirty-six halls cooperate with the refining.
Which alchemist is suitable, what is good at it, which one is suitable for overall work, and what is his temperament.
In addition, how much is stored in the treasury, the existing production and scale of spiritual grass, and the loss of access must be taken into account.
Only by being familiar with these in your heart can you completely display the power of the behemoth of Yaolu, and there will be no contradictions.
"You Ye, Shang Qu come over for a while."
After the five major departures of the older generation of Yaolu, the newcomers took the position, and Youye Monk Qu became the new chief steward.
Both of them rose in the temple of the Dao, one has a big heart, is strong and brave, has a small mental intelligence, is good at thinking, and is very popular.
"Elder, I have something to command."
After a while, Shang Qu and You Ye walked over.
The two are in the year of fighting, although they are slightly different in shape, but they both have a high-spirited vitality, which is extremely gratifying.
"According to the above record, the share will be distributed, and the rest can be arranged separately."
Chen Sheng took out two pieces of paper, which recorded various arrangements, which were carried out by Youye and Shangqu, and in some places with large operating space, they could be regarded as a kind of training.
"Yes."
The two of them picked up the task sheet and put it away closely, and they were already familiar with it.
"Elder, I have turned out a strategy you wrote today, it is too wonderful."
Shang Qu paused for a moment and took out a strategy from his arms, but it was Chen Sheng's lobbyist Qingping Valley, who pulled it to Guangxiu Immortal Sect, causing a battle, and he felt it for a while.
Back then, this strategy was verified by the Qingping Valley incident and was a feasible operation.
"Logistics and pill supplies? You have ideas. ”
Chen Sheng said lightly.
"This war may not be an opportunity for my medicine house, as long as we grasp it properly, we will bloom on all sides of the borderlands, controlling countless spirit grasses."
Shang Qu's eyes showed a warm light, and the spirit in his heart never diminished for a moment, and he always maintained a recourse attitude towards things.
For Dan Dao, the same is true for the development of Yaolu.
"I don't agree, at least at this stage, it's not time for us to get into danger."
You Ye held an opposing opinion, just like when the two fought in the Dao Temple, he was against being rough and bloody.
The alchemist of the medicine house, going to the battlefield in person and building fortresses and camps, can certainly expand the territory and make contributions, but he also has to see blood.
He didn't agree with the alchemists going to the battlefield, they weren't good at fighting, just quietly alchemy in the rear.
"The risks are equal to the benefits, you are too cowardly."
Shang Qu is still that character, although the two are in high positions, they still don't deal with each other, and they often start fighting when they don't agree.
This is the reason for the personality and the way of doing things, but there is no high or low.
"The matter...... There is no hurry. ”
Chen Sheng groaned and shelved the proposal.
The alchemist of the medicine house is indeed precious, so it is better to wait and see first.
"That'...... Wait. ”
Seeing this, Shang Qu didn't say anything anymore and retreated with You Ye.
"If Zhou Huang is still ......"
Chen Sheng looked at the figures of the two and thought of Zhou Huang, and choked for a while.
This is his follower, and now he can take charge of himself, if the other party does not die young, what a demeanor it will be.
