Chapter 30: The White Lotus and the White Rabbit
"Senior Brother He, how many years do you say mortals can live in a lifetime?"
"Mortals have a longevity of about one Jiazi, those with strong physiques can live to be eighty, and those who practice martial arts and refining qi can live to be 100 years old. ”
"Then how long can I live as a monk?"
"The foundation builder can prolong the life of one Jiazi, and then extend the life of two Jiazi after the Zhou Tian, and then extend the life of five hundred years after the golden pill, and the Yuan Yuan Infant will live for a thousand years, and the Ningyang God will live for three thousand years. But under the immeasurable heavenly tribulation every 9,000 years, it is difficult for the true immortals to protect themselves, and the earth immortals are even more incalculable, and few monks can survive the whole tribulation. ”
"Yes, most of the earth immortal powers can't survive a whole calamity, and the monks of small sects like you and me, who can cultivate to the point where the head master can form a primordial infant in a lifetime, even if it is the end, they will only live to be more than a thousand years old. But this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus, it has lived for more than 36,000 years!" Zhang Qiuchi looked at the white lotus that emitted so much fluorescence, and there was still a little gaffe in his words.
He Weiji was a little calmer than him, and asked at this moment: "Senior brother, this thirty-six-petal Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus is certainly a peerless treasure, but it has become extinct in the living world, does anyone know what pill can be used to refine it?"
Zhang Qiuchi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said, "Yes, although I can recognize this as the Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus, I don't know what it can do with it." ”
"I guess I don't know if I hug Uncle Yi, right?"
"It doesn't matter, no matter what you can do with it, it's always a treasure that is rare in 10,000 years. With the size of the living world and the number of capable people, there are always people who know how to use it. All we need to do is find such a person and sell it for a good price. ”
He Weiji looked at the pool, and felt a little uneasy in his heart: "Senior brother, don't you think it's really a little weird here?" Those strange grasses before, although they are also precious, but for people like the Great Sage of Pingshan, I am afraid that they are no different from wild grass, but this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus is so cherished, even if it is the Great Sage of the Demon Clan, it will not be casually placed here to pick it up, right?"
Zhang Qiuchi smiled: "Senior Brother He, I said earlier that you were too straight-minded, but now you are using your brains again. The Pingshan Great Sage had died before the Three Tribulations, and this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus also used the efforts of these Three Tribulations to grow thirty-six petals. Even if this flower was planted by the Great Sage of Pingshan before his death, how could he know that after 30,000 years, it would grow into a rare treasure? For him at that time, this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus was probably no different from other foreign grasses. ”
"I still think it's better to be careful. ”
He Weiji nodded to his junior brother, walked forward slowly, and just walked to the edge of the waterhole, something suddenly sprang out from behind a stone at his feet, blocking him. Rao is Zhang Qiuchi was wary, or was taken aback, and looked at it, but it was a small white rabbit.
Earlier, it was said that there was not even a rabbit around these strange grasses, but now a rabbit has really popped up.
Zhang Qiuchi and He Weiji looked at the white rabbit, and they didn't dare to act rashly for a long time, and the white rabbit was also motionless there, and his eyes were blurred and he didn't know whether to wake up or sleep.
"This ...... Is this rabbit a demon?" He Weiji asked in a low voice.
Zhang Qiuchi was also completely confused, he was not surprised that there were any poisonous snakes and beasts or even powerful demons guarding this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus, but now it was a rabbit that popped out. If this is just a rabbit, he will never believe it, but this rabbit does not have any aura on it, so it doesn't look like a monster?
He Weiji retreated: "Senior brother, let's go." The thirty-six petals of the Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus are so precious, and this blessing is not something that we low-level cultivators can afford. ”
Zhang Qiuchi didn't speak, he still took a tentative step forward. As he sold, the rabbit moved, but it was also a step forward. Such a strange scene made Zhang Qiuchi's scalp tingle, if this rabbit was a strange beast or even a monster that guarded the Water Moon Tianxin Lotus, then he should have jumped out to warn himself that the two of them should not get close again. But now that he has taken another step forward, this rabbit neither attacks himself nor leaves, but follows himself and takes a step, what is the reason?
Is this really just an ordinary, harmless rabbit?
The more Zhang Qiuchi thought about it, the more chaotic he became, so he simply turned his heart sideways, ignored the rabbit, and walked quickly towards the edge of the pool. Seeing this, the rabbit also followed, and when Zhang Qiuchi walked to the edge of the pool and was about to step on the water next, it jumped onto Zhang Qiuchi's shoulder.
Zhang Qiuchi was startled, and waved his hand to hit.
"Senior brother, no!"
When the palm was still in mid-air, it was held by another hand, and it turned out that He Weiji caught up and grabbed his arm.
Zhang Qiuchi, who was undecided, came to his senses and almost made a big mistake. If this white rabbit is just an ordinary rabbit, if it is really the guardian beast of this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus, his palm is equivalent to burying the lives of himself and He Weiji.
He Weiji bowed to the white rabbit squatting on his senior brother's shoulder: "The white rabbit seniors are above, and the junior Qingxu Sect disciples He Weiji and senior brother Zhang Qiuchi will strayed into the Jiuqu Cave Heaven by fate, just to find a way out and inadvertently break into here." The senior brother was happy to see Bao, but he didn't know that the White Rabbit seniors were guarding here, and the measures were rude but really unintentional, and he asked the seniors to atone for their sins. ”
Zhang Qiuchi's body didn't dare to move, and slowly turned his neck to look at the white rabbit on his shoulder, but it still didn't react.
He Weiji had to salute it again, and his words were more respectful, so he sent it to kneel down and kowtow.
It still didn't respond.
Zhang Qiuchi's heart was in turmoil at the moment, who was this rabbit sacred? and did not attack him, and did not react to He Weiji's humble words, is it a big demon in its original form deliberately playing tricks on itself, or is it really a rabbit that is not strange at all?
Just when He Weiji and Zhang Qiuchi looked at each other at a loss, the rabbit jumped off Zhang Qiuchi's shoulder by itself. Zhang Qiuchi only breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, and his stiff body began to move. The rabbit didn't go far, but bit off half of an ordinary weed, and then ran back with a leap of it, and threw it into the pool.
After the half of the weeds entered the water, they sank directly, and before they sank to the bottom of the water, they gradually withered and turned yellow, and within a moment they became a handful of grass and wood ashes, and finally disappeared in the water.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Qiuchi broke out in a cold sweat, and if he stepped into the water like this, he didn't know what would happen.
He Weiji suddenly realized at this moment: "I understand, no wonder there is nothing else in this pool except this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus, even this pool of water is too calm, and even the wind can't blow ripples." Senior brother, you said that everything around the Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus is not born, but now it seems that it is not because it is strange, but because its vitality is too strong, and it has sucked away all the vitality of all the surrounding things, not to mention the fish in the water, even the pool of water itself has been sucked into stagnant water from the source of life. ”
I don't know if I heard He Weiji's words, the white rabbit lay down on all fours by the pool, and it was quite comfortable with his eyes closed.
"Thank you for the life-saving grace of the White Rabbit seniors!" Zhang Qiuchi also looked deeply at the rabbit.
"Senior brother, do you still want to pick this Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus?"
"If the White Rabbit seniors don't allow us to pick this white lotus, then you don't need to remind me, you can just let me step into that Tan stagnant water. This stagnant water can suck all life, but it can't suck ruthless things. After that, he once again sacrificed the year of the umbrella that covered the sky and the sun. Although it lacks eight umbrella bones and cannot support the opening of the umbrella, it is still no problem to fly with a simple imperial weapon.
Zhang Qiuchi's imperial envoy umbrella flew towards the Water Moon Tianxin Lotus, turned into a golden light and drilled into the water, and the next moment he uprooted the white lotus and threw it to the shore, and he himself had already opened another jade box at this time, and was receiving the white lotus in the air. It is also strange to say that when the white lotus was born in the water, it washed away all the vitality around it, but when it was pulled up, it began to slowly exude a strong breath of life. Zhang Qiuchi hurriedly covered the jade box to prevent the breath of life from leaking out, and put it in his bag.
"Thirty-six petals of the Water Moon Heavenly Heart Lotus, I don't know how many magic weapon talismans I can exchange for in the Nanhai Heavenly Market, this round of the Great Demon Tide, my Qingxu Sect's chances of winning are a few points more!"
