Chapter 51 Yaochi's mother's window opened, and King Mu didn't do it again
Ye Haotian and Lan'er stood on the edge of the Yao Pond at the top of the Kunlun Nine Heavens Jade Feng, in front of them was the turquoise and crystal clear lake water, and the blue waves were as quiet as a huge jade, hanging high on the horizon, the breeze blowing in their faces, and the Qingluan on the surface of the lake...... The surrounding peaks are covered with green grass, green trees, and colorful wildflowers...... Everything in front of me makes people feel like a dream.
After a while, Ye Haotian retracted his gaze and looked down at his feet, to his surprise, the area around Yaochi was full of white jade, the glorious white jade seemed to be naturally cast, without a trace of gaps, along the lakeside all the way to the distance, the length and width of dozens of miles of the lake was completely wrapped around the white jade.
He stared at the clear water, and to his surprise, it was also jade that made up the bottom of the lake!
A sense of holiness extended from Qunyufeng's head to the clear pool water, and then from the smooth pool wall to his heart, and he felt as if his whole person had become transparent.
At this moment, he felt extremely shocked in his heart: "This is the real Yao Pond! Yao is also beautiful jade, not only the pool water is like jade pulp, but the pool wall is composed of smooth and beautiful jade." The entire Yao Pond and the surrounding jade Feng do not have a trace of dust, and they are always as smooth as a mirror!"
Lan'er was already in a daze and intoxicated. Her delicate body involuntarily moved closer to Ye Haotian, grabbed Ye Haotian's arm tightly with both hands, and said faintly: "Yaochi...... Yao Chi ...... I actually met the real Yaochi ......"
Ye Haotian wrapped one hand around her slender waist, and said in a low voice: "If the Yanhu Wonderland is like a small jasper, Yaochi is like a fairy in the sky." Her holiness is incomparable. She has a soul-stirring power that makes everyone who sees it want to bow down. ”
Qu Yuan next to him also seemed to be a little confused, and sighed deeply and said, "When I first came here, I was so shocked that I didn't recover for three days. To this day, every time I come here, I have to spend a cup of tea before I can move my steps. ”
Shaokang simply looked up at the sky, not daring to look at the tempting lake.
Ye Haotian stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the center of the lake and asked, "That palace is probably the Queen Mother's Qiongyu Palace." But I don't know where Yaotai is?"
Qu Yuan nodded: "That is the core of Kunlun Wonderland, Qiongyu Palace, all the pavilions and pavilions are all built by beautiful jade, and all the flowers and trees are made of jade pulp." Yaotai is in the center of Qiongyu Palace. The world-famous jade tree is also there. ”
Ye Haotian looked intently, but saw that Qiongyu Palace was located in the blue waves of Yao Chi, consisting of more than 100 palaces and pavilions, hundreds of corridors and painted roads, and they twisted and turned with each other. The palaces are intrigued and ingenious, like a mirage. The crystal window railings are exquisitely clear, and the glazed flying tiles are resplendent in gold.
Just when he was fascinated, he suddenly heard a faint moving fairy sound from the Qiongyu Palace, as if it was a guqin whispering, and like a bell chime tapping.
Lan'er had already sung a tune with the fairy sound: "Yaochi's mother's window is open, Huangzhu sings movingly, the eight horses are said to travel 30,000 miles, why won't King Mu come again?"
Ye Haotian was stunned when he heard this.
According to ancient books such as "The Biography of Mu Tianzi" and "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", King Ji Man of Zhou Mu visited the queen mother, and the queen mother held a banquet on the Yao Pond to entertain him, gave gifts to each other, and sang and sang peace. Then the Queen Mother invited King Mu to travel to the mountains and rivers of Kunlun Wonderland, and King Mu inscribed "Mountain of the Queen Mother of the West" for her and planted trees to commemorate it. Finally, when King Mu was leaving, the Queen Mother of the West sang impromptuly: "I wish you a long life, and may you come again." ”
This story was more than 700 years earlier than Qu Yuan, and later it was widely circulated, and I think Qu Yuan may have heard of it.
Ye Haotian turned his head to look at Qu Yuan and asked, "Sir, do you know anything about King Mu?"
Qu Yuan sighed and said in a low voice: "King Mu is also a Yuqing Heavenly God, and he was once within two hundred on the list of immortals, but unfortunately he died in battle when he conquered Messiye. His Panyu Kung Fu is at the head of the gods in the Heavenly Realm, and the Jewel Tree is his handiwork. So the Queen Mother thanked him very much and invited him to come and sit more often. ”
Ye Haotian was taken aback, the pearl and jade tree turned out to be artificially carved!, and what King Mu left behind in the tree planting was originally a handicraft! Unfortunately, King Mu died in battle, so he couldn't come again. When a person dies, what's the use of the eight horses running fast?
Thinking of King Zhou Mu, Ye Haotian felt a little sad in his heart: "People die like lights going out, but immortals also die so easily! When will the cultivation of immortals end?"
Lan'er leaned on Ye Haotian's side, looking at the jade feng in the distance and the holy water of Yaochi, and couldn't tell where the mountains were and where the water was for a while, only full of green and a quiet beauty. She really wants to use this sweet and pure lake water to brew a pot of tea, and use the refreshing fragrance of tea to enjoy the beautiful and delicious lake and mountains. She wanted to see the morning sun scattering thousands of acres of gold on the lake, the warm afternoon sun warming the emerald silent and tranquil pool water, and the evening afterglow lighting the quiet lake.
Looking at it, she unconsciously walked towards the lake, and refused to stop when she stepped into the lake.
Ye Haotian stretched out his hand from behind to hold her, lightly tapped it in her Yin Hall and Baihui, and said softly: "You rest for a while, don't look at it anymore, it's harmful to see too much." ”
Lan'er woke up a little, let out an obedient "um", and slowly entered the Qiankun bag to rest.
Ye Haotian looked at the empty lake around him, took a deep breath and said, "It seems that it makes sense for the Queen Mother to classify this place as a forbidden place. I really didn't expect that the charm of Yaochi would be so great! Even if it was the Sanqing Heavenly God, I was afraid and didn't dare to ignore it. ”
Qu Yuan looked at Qiongyu Palace from afar and said, "You are right. In the face of the temptation of Yao Chi, ordinary immortals have no ability to resist, and as soon as they get here, they want to dissolve themselves in the lake water, and they still have a smile on their faces until they drown. Although the Sanqing Heavenly Gods can resist the temptation of the lake, they don't dare to stay here for too long, let alone practice here. If you can't resist the temptation of Yao Chi, practicing here will only reduce your strength. Only the queen mother, an old man with unique skills, can stand by the Yao Pond outside Qiongyu Palace and cultivate, and she is not affected by the lake at all. She set Yao Chi as a forbidden place just to protect ordinary immortals. There are fish and shrimp in the Yao Pond, and you have the ability to catch them. ”
Ye Haotian looked at the beautiful Qiongyu Palace, and suddenly asked, "Where is the Queen Mother's Pan Taoyuan, it won't be in the palace, right?"
Hearing this, Shao Kang withdrew his gaze to the sky, glanced at him, and replied for Qu Yuan: "Three of the six gardens in Kunlun belong to the Queen Mother, we have already seen the flat garden and the hanging garden, and there is one that we have not seen is called the sparse garden. Sparse garden in the sixth day, we have already missed. The garden is full of all kinds of fruit trees, half of which are peach trees, so it is also called the peach orchard. Isn't it possible for you to collect three elixirs after passing seven levels from the east gate? You only took two of them just now, and you should have one more chance. I think it's better to pick some fruit and eat it on the way. ”
Ye Haotian laughed when he heard "haha": "I almost forgot that there is such a good thing! If I pick half of the queen mother's peach, will her old man be angry?"
Qu Yuan couldn't stop laughing when he heard the words, and only said after a while: "The peach blooms once every three thousand years, bears fruit every three thousand years, and then matures for another three thousand years." Now the peach orchard is bare, and the flowers haven't even bloomed yet, where is the peach?"
Ye Haotian heard the "hehe" and smiled: "Then I'll keep the opportunity and wait for nine thousand years to come." ”
Qu Yuan made him laugh and cry, and deliberately said: "The three chances must be completed within ten years, otherwise they will be invalid." ”
Ye Haotian said with a smile: "Then forget it, I have to pick some fruit randomly and make snacks on the way." ”
While he was talking and laughing, the Tongling Jade on his chest suddenly became hot, and it became hotter and hotter, to the point of scorching. He knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly looked around, only to find that a strange red fish was gradually emerging on the water not far in front of him, as big as a millstone, shaped like a turtle and turtle, but with six legs, swimming slowly and spitting out a string of green pearls!
He stared at the strange fish for a moment, and when he saw that the strange fish was about to sink to the bottom again, he didn't have time to think about it, so he flew and pounced.
The strange fish was taken aback when he saw him coming, and swam away lightning before he could take back the pearl.
Ye Haotian grabbed the string of beads with his hand, turned around and flew back to the shore, holding the beads in his hand to take a closer look.
It was a string of pearls slightly larger than a soybean, as jade-colored, the size as one, crystal clear, almost a hundred, strung together with a transparent filament, indescribably beautiful and moving.
Qu Yuan and Shaokang both came over, and after reading it, they both shook their heads, not knowing what it was.
Shaokang muttered: "It's strange that there are fish that spit pearls!"
Lan'er heard the words in the Qiankun bag and asked, "What does that fish look like?"
Ye Haotian handed the pearl into the Qiankun bag and said with a smile: "I found a necklace for you, do you like it? That fish is so weird! The red fish is like a turtle, but it has six legs." ”
The words did not fall, but Lan'er exclaimed from the bag.
Ye Haotian hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Then Lan'er's laughter came: "It's nothing, I just think these beads are so beautiful, and I was excited for a while, which made Gongzi worried." ”
Ye Haotian put his mind at ease, his eyes stared at the quiet and peaceful Qiongyu Palace, thinking of the tragic scene of the Divine Sect spilling blood for thousands of miles in the Central Plains.
After being silent for a long time, he turned to Qu Yuan and said, "There is a storm outside Kunlun Mountain, and it is rare that there is such tranquility here. Sir has the token of passing through the world, and he has the responsibility of observing the people's feelings for the heavenly court, have you found any abnormalities in the past two years?"
Qu Yuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then sighed: "This tranquility of Yaochi is only a superficial phenomenon, in fact, the Kunlun Immortal Realm is no longer the Pure Land it used to be. In the past year, a total of eighteen immortals have died in the fairyland, and the cause of their death has not been found to this day. This has never happened before. ”
Shaokang turned his head to look at him, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't speak. Because he was only a guest of the Divine Sect in Kunlun Mountain, he didn't know much about those killings.
Ye Haotian reminded Qu Yuan: "I wonder if Mr. has heard of the great prosperity of the Divine Cult and the many evils in recent years?"
Qu Yuan nodded and said, "The demonic wind of the Divine Sect has been blowing for four or five years, but the source has not been investigated. As far as I know, the Heavenly Court has already sent hundreds of divine envoys, including clairvoyance and Shunfeng Ear, plus Liuding Liujia Gong Cao and 8864 Heavenly Dragon Patrols, who have been constantly monitoring the movements of the heavens day and night, and even the Buddha has used the 'Ganges River Sand Infinite Buddha Light Heart Method' to continuously observe for seven days and seven nights, and finally can only determine that the center of the Divine Cult is located in the Tiankui Galaxy. As for the identity of the true god of the Divine Cult Patriarch, it is still uncertain. ”
Ye Haotian asked puzzledly: "Isn't the name and origin of each immortal indicated on the immortal list, why can't you still determine the identity of the true god?"
Qu Yuan shook his head and said, "The arrangement of the Immortal List is automatically counted by the Heavenly Guardian Seal and the Nine Rank Lotus Table, and its accuracy depends on the ratio of the divine power of the two major artifacts to the power of the immortals. Each immortal is surrounded by a protective layer, also known as the 'fairy hood'. In order to accurately detect the number of divine pills and Buddha hearts of the immortals, they must first let the divine power enter the immortal's mud pill palace through the protective layer. Therefore, the more low-level the data of the immortal detection, the more accurate the data, and the more advanced the immortal detection, the more unreliable the data. When it comes to the fifty places on the immortal list, it is basically an estimated number. Some immortals are open-minded, and the immortal cover is also open, and the statistics are relatively reliable; for a person with a suspicious heart like the true god, the immortal cover is completely closed, and it is difficult for the two major artifacts to know his relevant information. ”
Ye Haotian felt a little puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "If the identity of the true god is difficult to determine for a while, then what about his disciples? Their skills are not too high, and they should be easy to deal with." But why hasn't the Heavenly Court taken action? and let them stay at large?"
Qu Yuan asked rhetorically, "Are you talking about Yahe, Makang and others?"
Ye Haotian hurriedly replied: "Yes, even the King of the Earth Bodhisattva was trapped in the fire in the center of the earth by them, and he should know if he wanted to come to the Heavenly Court, I don't know if he took action?"
Qu Yuan smiled bitterly: "Heavenly Court has already sent thirty Yuqing Heavenly Gods to capture the four of them. Helplessly, once these people are captured, they will commit suicide, die cleanly, and even the primordial spirit and soul will completely disappear and become invisible. But it won't be long before they will come back from another place, and their appearance will be exactly the same as before, and their names will still be in their original names, and their skills will even grow better than before they died. I've heard that these four have been captured five times, but five times they have come back to life. What do you say?"
Ye Haotian was drenched in cold sweat when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say.
Qu Yuan glanced at him, and continued: "Seeing that the power of the true god is getting bigger and bigger, and the true god today is even more terrifying than Messier and Ibugu back then, the Jade Emperor and the Buddha summoned the gods of the heavenly realm to discuss it all night for more than ten days, and in the end they still couldn't find a good way to deal with the Divine Sect. But everyone agrees that the root of sin lies in the true God. Only by getting rid of the true God can the entire cult be eradicated. Therefore, the Jade Emperor has decreed: 'Whoever can provide the exact identity of the true god will be rewarded with eighteen pills, which will be voluntarily provided by the eighteen prestigious Yuqing Heavenly Gods, and whoever can eradicate the true god will be named Haotian Emperor, with the status equivalent to the five old emperors, and reward him with one-tenth of the tax revenue of the Heavenly Court within a hundred years!'"
Ye Haotian didn't care about these rewards, the uneasiness in his heart became heavier and heavier, and he obviously felt that this Heavenly Court catastrophe was only more tragic than the previous ones, and it would be more than one-third of the immortals in the Heavenly Realm who died tragically in the end.
Qu Yuan seemed to be addicted to what he said, and continued: "The Queen Mother left Kunlun to see the Nine Heavens Xuannu this time, probably to discuss ways to eradicate the Divine Cult. The Nine Heavens Xuannu is second only to the Pangu Emperor in terms of seniority, although her skills have been slower in recent years, she has always been the Optimus Jade Pillar of the Heavenly Realm, and she often has to ask for her opinion when the Heavenly Court is in danger. ”
Ye Haotian looked in the direction of Qiongyu Palace, sighed and said, "I don't know when the Queen Mother will be able to come back, no matter what, I hope that her old man is in good health." Without her, there would be no Kunlun Wonderland, and without Kunlun Fairyland, the immortal energy of the three islands of the Ten Continents would be reduced by half, so that it would be difficult for the local immortals to become the gods of Sanqing. ”
Qu Yuan nodded and said, "You are right, her old man is indeed the protector of the local area. She comes back every year on the ninth day of September. At that time, there was a 'Heavy Nine Gathering Immortal Society', and she would gather all the immortals in the Kunlun Immortal Realm who had cultivated to the thirty-first and thirty-second realms to gather in Qiongyu Palace, teach them the method of flying to the sky, and help them accelerate their ascension to the Sanqing realm. Because of this, there are far more Sanqing Heavenly Gods cultivated in Middle-earth than on other planets. ”
Ye Haotian thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, we won't enter Qiongyu Palace." Leave Yaotai and Zhuyu Tree to the Chongjiu Gathering Immortal Society to watch together. Speaking of this, he gently said to Lan'er in Qiankun's bag: "Do you still want to go in to see Qiong Yushu?"
Lan'er said with a smile: "I have already heard the music of the pearl tree, and I have no regrets in my heart. ”
Shaokang urged beside him: "Let's go, I can't take it anymore, I really want to jump into the Yao Pond and swim." The two of you are so powerful! Mr. Qu is still a Sanqing Heavenly God, and it is a miracle that Brother Ye is not a Sanqing Heavenly God and can resist the temptation of Yao Chi. ”
Ye Haotian did not forget to promote his Confucianism at any time, and said with a smile: "I practice the Confucian righteousness, and now it is just Hinayana . Mr. Qu, do you know Confucianism?"
Qu Yuan said with a smile: "Mr. Kong is my senior, and I admire his doctrine very much. When I was in the state of Chu, the three schools of Confucianism, Mo, and Taoism had formed a complete system, which was widely spread. Confucianism has been regarded as a classic by various countries since the time it was handed down. As a nobleman of the Chu State, I inevitably accepted Confucianism. ”
Hearing this, Ye Haotian asked excitedly: "I only know that you are a great poet and patriot, but I haven't heard that you are also a descendant of Confucianism?"
Qu Yuan waved his hand and smiled: "Praise in front of me is exempt." But I can be considered a member of Confucianism. For example, Confucianism advocates 'benevolent government', I advocate 'beautiful government', Confucianism advocates 'loving others', I advocate 'compassion for the people', Confucianism advocates 'promoting virtuous talents', and I advocate 'promoting meritocracy and empowering ability'......"
Ye Haotian couldn't help but shout three times when he heard this: "Okay, good, good! I hope that Mr. will do more for the rise of Confucianism in the heavenly realm in the future." ”
Qu Yuan nodded and said, "Well, Confucianism's status in the Heavenly Court is indeed a little lower, but it is not so easy to correct the name. No matter where you go, without strength, there is no weight to speak. If Confucianism wants to rise, it cannot rely on the mercy of others, but must show its own strength. ”
Ye Haotian completely agreed with what he said, and hurriedly said, "Let's do our best!"
At this time, Shaokang shouted next to him: "If I don't leave, I'm going to jump into the lake, please, let's go." Let's go to Pan Tao Yuan!"
Ye Haotian and Qu Yuan looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Okay, just go to Pan Tao Garden, but I don't know what can be in the garden now." Before the words fell, he rose into the air and flew down the mountain.
Qu Yuan and Shaokang followed closely behind him. After a while, Qu Yuan hurried a few steps and flew in front of Ye Haotian to lead the way.
They went all the way down from the ninth heaven and landed directly near the sparse garden of the sixth heaven.
What made Ye Haotian feel relieved was that it was no longer a divine beast guarding the sparse garden, but twelve golden-armored gods. When he showed his gold medal to the Immortals, those people saluted in unison and said, "Welcome inside, we are close to the left, and we are ready to listen to the orders of the Immortals." After saying that, he retreated.
Qu Yuan led them into the sparse garden, and then said to Ye Haotian with a smile: "Among the three gardens of the Queen Mother, only the sparse garden has no record. Because the fruit here grows and grows, it is difficult to count how many fruits. Therefore, there is no statistics at all, and there is no explanation of the efficacy of the fruit. I don't know what's good or what's bad, it's up to your own eyesight. ”
Ye Haotian said casually: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say! I'll pick one at random." As he spoke, he concentrated his skills on the Tongling Treasure Jade and walked straight to the depths of the sparse garden.
The whole sparse garden is not less than tens of thousands of acres of size, half of which is peach trees, and the other half is planted with all kinds of fruit trees. It's a pity that as Qu Yuan said, they came at an inopportune time. Not only did the bare peach tree have nothing, no flowers or leaves, as if it had gone dormant in winter, but few other fruit trees bore fruit.
Qu Yuan explained: "It would be nice if you came here in August or September. At that time, in addition to the peach, many trees were full of fruits, sweet snow, black dates, white oranges, and begonias...... There are so many of them, and they are very different from what they are now. ”
Ye Haotian just wanted to take a casual look, and he didn't care if he could pick the fruit. After walking for a while, he felt that the sparse garden was too big, so in order to save time, he simply got up and swept over the treetops, and while flying, he carefully sensed the changes in the temperature of Baoyu, and found that almost every fruit could make Tongling Baoyu slightly hot, but the hottest was a locust flower. It was an old locust tree, about three people hugging each other, green all over, and covered with white flowers.
He circled around the locust tree, turned around and asked Qu Yuan, "May I ask what is important about this locust tree, sir?"
Qu Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't know." I only know that 'the morning drink magnolia embellished dew, the evening meal autumn chrysanthemum falls into the ying', although I heard that the acacia flowers are delicious, but I haven't really eaten them. ”
Shaokang stared at it for a long time, and said excitedly: "My father once told me about the Kunlun Three Divine Trees in the past, Zhuyu, Xuanqi and Bihuai, if my guess is right, this is probably Bihuai." ”
Hearing the name of the acacia, Qu Yuan couldn't help but exclaim: "I often hear its name, and I can say that I have been friends with God for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be such an ordinary old locust tree! A locust flower can grow in power for ten years, and you count how many tens of thousands of trees there are?"
Ye Haotian laughed "haha": "It's useless to eat too much, eating one flower will increase your power for ten years, and in the future, each increase in power will decrease by one year, and after eating a hundred, it will be the same as eating, it is purely a violent thing." But seeing that there was nothing better around, he smiled again, "Well, I don't want to collect that much." There are four of us, 200 flowers each, and 500 flowers are left for reserve, so let's pick 1,300 flowers. ”
Lan'er had already appeared, and shouted with joy: "It's too little, at least three thousand flowers must be picked, and I will keep them for food on the road." ”
Ye Haotian hung on the treetops, stretched out his hand and broke off a branch of locust flowers, each with thirty or fifty flowers. He broke a hundred branches in one go, and then floated down to the ground when he felt that it was almost over, and then distributed the acacia flowers to Shaokang and Qu Yuan with twenty branches each, and the rest were collected into the Qiankun bag. When I looked back, it was as if the locust flowers on the tree had not been picked, and I don't know how many branches remained.
Lan'er secretly screamed pity, looked at the white flowers on the tree and asked, "If no one collects them, are these locust flowers all wasted?"
Qu Yuan replied: "No, the trees here are managed by special personnel, and the locust flowers will be picked for alchemy and medicine, or made into locust flower wine, which can be used in the Pan Tao Conference and the Chongjiu Gathering Immortal Conference." There are countless elixir fairy herbs in the three gardens owned by the Queen Mother, and most of these things are used to entertain the immortals in the past, and her old people rarely use them. ”
※※※
When Ye Haotian and Lan'er, together with Shaokang and Qu Yuan, arrived at the county garden located in the second heaven, Heavenly Master Zhang Sheng was still looking at the Yun and Qin he had planted in a daze.
Ye Haotian walked a few steps to him, and said softly: "Senior Uncle Ancestor, you already have the Flat Nursery Zhiyun and Hanging Nursery Celery you want!"
Zhang Sheng looked at the thing handed over by Ye Haotian in disbelief, and suddenly jumped up at a glance. He blinked his eyes in disbelief, and when he looked at it, he found that what the other party was holding in his hand were indeed the two elixirs he had dreamed of, and he was so excited that his hands trembled, his eyes flashed with tears, he took the elixir with one hand, patted Ye Haotian on the shoulder with the other hand, and said gratefully: "I really don't know how to thank you." With these two elixirs, I will be able to open the furnace for alchemy. Alas, after two hundred years of hard work, it is really not easy to finally find seventy-two kinds of medicinal materials!" As he spoke, he took off the burden on his back, and slowly opened the rope layer by layer, and what appeared in front of Ye Haotian was some roots and grass stalks that had long since dried up, as well as some ground medicinal stones, which seemed to be really some years.
Zhang Sheng put the Yunyun of the Flat Garden and the celery of the Hanging Garden in the baggage, and then tightly wrapped it layer after layer, and after wrapping it, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and said very excitedly: "Sanqingjing, Sanqingjing...... With the Dragon and Tiger Pill, why worry about Deng Taiqing?" After finishing speaking, he took out a piece of jade from his arms and handed it to Ye Haotiandao: "I will pass on the Dragon and Tiger Pill's recipe to you now, if you can return to the Central Plains in the future, I hope to take care of the Heavenly Master Sect a little more, and I will not go back myself." ”
Ye Haotian took the jade slip, bowed to Zhang Sheng twice, and said, "Uncle Xie is complete, I will definitely go back to the Central Plains, and I will strive to go back once a year." ”
Zhang Sheng looked at Qu Yuan, who was standing in place, and said: "Mr. Qu, thank you for sending me the seeds of Yun and Qin before, and now I want to trouble you again, I want to go to the Zicui Danfang to alchemy, I don't know if there is any free Dan room?"
Qu Yuan said with a smile: "The Dragon and Tiger Pill of the Heavenly Master is included in the Nine Great Divine Pills, it is a rare elixir in the Heavenly Realm, of course Kunlun Fairyland will strongly support it, even if there is no Dan room, I will make room for you." Speaking of this, he turned his head to Ye Haotian and said, "I think you haven't seen the Dan room specially prepared for the alchemy of immortals in Kunlun Mountain, so it's better to go and take a look." I will also arrange it for the Celestial Master by the way. ”
Ye Haotian said happily when he heard this: "Okay, let's go and have a look together, it won't take much time to think about it." ”
So everyone rose into the air and flew in the direction of Danfang under the leadership of Qu Yuan.
The Zicui Dan Room is located in the fifth heaven of the Kunlun Wonderland, it is a row of very clean bungalows, there are about a hundred rooms, and each room is a separate Dan room.
Qu Yuan led them into one of the rooms and introduced them to the equipment for alchemy.
Ye Haotian was surprised to find that the Dan room was full of all kinds of utensils and utensils, with a wide variety of types. As far as tripod ware is concerned, there are several kinds of gold, silver, copper, iron, porcelain, and clay. One of the upper and lower tripods attracted Ye Haotian's attention, it was a furnace tripod made of gold, composed of two tripods, which could be opened and closed at will. The circumference is 12 inches for the 12th and 12th hexagrams, and the height is 8 inches for the 8th stanza. The whole tripod is very well made.
He circled around the Golden Tripod and asked with great interest: "I heard that the first tripod of alchemy is the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding, but unfortunately I haven't really seen it, and I don't know what it's like to be born." There are so many people in the world who make alchemy, and there are many kinds of tripods, but I don't know what are the most famous furnace tripods besides the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding?"
Zhang Sheng had never thought about these questions, and he couldn't answer them when he heard the words.
Shaokang didn't know, he just shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said: "There are too many furnaces for alchemy, everyone keeps it a secret, and I have never heard of any ranking of the dings." ”
Qu Yuan thought for a while and said, "There is a kind of divine tripod that is said to be on par with the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding, and the name of that divine tripod is called the Nine Heavens Kun Ding. It is the Nine Heavens Xuannu, that is, the artifact used by Nuwa Niangniang to create people. At that time, she put the five-color stone and various elixirs and Haijinsha into the dingzhong, and after forging the prototype of Chengren, she kneaded the image of a human with her hands, and finally created a human being. ”
Ye Haotian's eyes widened when he heard this, and he asked, "On the same level as the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding?" I heard that the Ten Thousand Annihilation King Ding can refine all the life in the universe, can it be said that the Nine Heavens Kun Ding can refine life and restore the Yuan Shen?"
Qu Yuan replied with some embarrassment: "I don't know much about the divine effect of the Nine Heavens Kunding. It's just that I heard that if the Yuan Shen has not completely perished, but there must be a trace of shadow, it can be repaired through the Nine Heavens Kunding. ”
Lan'er felt incredulous and asked, "In this way, the gods of the Heavenly Realm will not die! Why do nearly one-third of the immortals still die in a great tribulation?"
Qu Yuan sighed: "Although the Nine Heavens Kunding is powerful, the price required for each use is also very high, it is said that one operation will consume one hundred and eighty kinds of elixirs, or six of the nine great divine pills will be used like hatching phoenix eggs." Therefore, only Heavenly Court has enough financial resources to support the operation of the Nine Heavens Kunding, and private individuals cannot afford it. Heavenly Court once held a meeting of the gods on this issue, discussing whether it should exhaust public financial resources to save the immortals who still had a breath left, but the final result of the vote was that there was no need to treat them. The reason is that life and death are fateful, and although the Sanqing Heavenly God will not encounter the Heavenly Tribulation from the Heavenly Court, he will still encounter the Demon Tribulation from the demons and monsters. Although each demon tribulation greatly disrupts the order of the Heavenly Court, it also has one benefit, that is, the number of the Three Qing Heavenly Gods is not too large, otherwise if it only rises and does not fall, the Heavenly Court will be overcrowded. Therefore, more than half of the people at the meeting of the gods thought that the immortals who had only one breath left should not be treated. ”
Lan'er said with some resentment: "What kind of truth is this? How can you see death and not save it? What is wrong with the large number of people in Heavenly Court? Is it easy to cultivate to the Three Qing Realm? What if the price is great? What is more precious between heaven and earth than human life?"
Qu Yuan shook his head as he spoke: "Yes, I don't know what those people think, everyone thinks they won't die." But in any case, after the discussion of the gods, a rule was finally settled: for the more seriously injured immortals, the ordinary treatment methods are not restricted, but the Nine Heavens Kunding cannot be easily used, unless there is definite evidence that that person has made great contributions to the world and is a rare pillar of the Heavenly Court, he will be treated by the Heavenly Court at public expense. However, the approval process is extremely cumbersome, and when the approval is completed, the immortal to be saved may have died. ”
Ye Haotian asked, "What if it is treated at private expense?"
"There is no restriction on private treatment, you can go directly to Nuwa Niangniang, as long as she agrees. ”
Ye Haotian was about to ask again, and at this time, Zhang Sheng had already inspected the room, and smiled with satisfaction: "I want this Dan room." I don't know how much rent I have to pay?"
Qu Yuan replied: "One million Divine Pill coins a day, isn't it expensive? After the Heavenly Master Dan is completed, one Dragon and Tiger Pill is worth 70 million Divine Pill coins, which is just a trivial matter." ”
Ye Haotian was taken aback, he didn't expect to pay such a heavy rent for renting a Danfang. However, it makes sense to think about it, because the design and renewal of the utensils in Dan's room cost money, and I am afraid that it will not be able to sustain itself if the rent is not collected. ”
Zhang Sheng sighed and said: "It's not expensive, but I don't have any on me, it seems that I have to go to the Shendan exchange office to exchange for the Shendan again." ”
Ye Haotian hurriedly asked, "How many Divine Pill coins does Uncle Ancestor need?"
Zhang Sheng replied: "The Dragon and Tiger Pill needs to be refined for six hundred and thirty-six days, and it requires thirty-six million Divine Pill coins, which is equivalent to my thirty-six years of skill. ”
Ye Haotian smiled and took out 50 million Divine Pill coins and said, "Senior Uncle Ancestor, I'll buy a Dragon and Tiger Pill that you haven't started refining yet, because it is an early investment, it should be cheaper, 50 million pieces, can you see it?"
Zhang Sheng glared at him and said, "You kid, you don't want to show traces of doing good deeds! It's hard to say if you want a divine pill? I have at least a thousand furnace pills, and it's not trivial to leave you ten or eight pills at that time? But you'd better wait for me here for thirty-six days, because after the Dan is completed, I will leave Kunlun Mountain, and I don't know where I'm going." Otherwise, I can't find you when the time comes, how can I give you the Dragon Tiger Pill?"
Ye Haotian glanced at Qu Yuan, and then said, "I can't stay here for long. Uncle Shi can hand over Dan to Mr. Qu and let him pass it on to me. Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, then took out two locust flowers from the Qiankun bag, handed them to Zhang Shengdao: "Uncle Shi, alchemy is extremely hard, these dozens of small flowers will refresh you, eat one a day, I believe it will be beneficial to alchemy." ”
Zhang Sheng took the locust flower and put it in a Dan bottle, and said with a smile: "Well, it's really uncomfortable not to eat or drink for thirty-six days, maybe these acacia flowers can really satisfy hunger." ”
It was the first time for Lan'er to enter the Danfang, and she looked at it with novelty for a long time, and then couldn't help asking, "Uncle Shi, do you want us to help you prepare some food and snacks?"
Zhang Sheng shook his head: "Refining the Outer Pill is also a process of refining the heart, you need to be calm and focused, if you eat heavy turbid products such as grains, it is easy to be distracted." Things like flower dew are light and uplifting, easy to refresh and refresh, and are very good for alchemy. ”
Qu Yuan knew that he didn't understand the value of the locust flower, so he deliberately woke him up and said, "Master Zhang, this locust flower is extraordinary, you have to enjoy it!"
Zhang Sheng looked at Qu Yuan in surprise when he heard this, and then glanced at the other three, and found that several people were all looking at him with smiles, obviously there was something strange in the acacia flowers.
Qu Yuan didn't explain further, he just accepted 36 million Divine Pill coins, and then said, "I think that the Heavenly Master must want to refine the Dragon and Tiger Pill as soon as possible, so we won't bother you anymore." Dan Chengzhi said, I will come to congratulate you. ”
Ye Haotian and Lan'er also hurriedly said goodbye to Zhang Sheng, and then got up and walked in the direction of Kunlun Immortal Ruins.
