Kunlun one millet

chapter 141

Outside the quiet room, Zhao Shu sat cross-legged to cultivate his spirit, and waited from late at night until noon, until Lu Wangji took the initiative to go out and said:
"Marquis Zhenming, Miss Jiang Ru has woken up."

Zhao Mi heaved a sigh of relief, got up first and bowed to Lu Wangji and said, "Thank you for the wonderful treatment, fellow Taoist, please rest for a while, I will send someone to deliver the tonic pill immediately."

"Marquis Zhenming has a heart." Lu Wangji nodded slightly: "Miss Jiang Ru wants to see you, so I won't bother you."

After Lu Wangji said that, he took the qin and left, Zhao Mi called the attendants to give some instructions, and then came to the quiet room alone.

Seeing Jiang Ru lying on the soft couch, her complexion was not very good, but at least she was awake, and she planned to get up as soon as she saw Zhao Mi.

"You don't need to get up." Zhao Mi raised his hand and pressed, and was about to sit down on the couch, but he felt uncomfortable as soon as he moved his legs, so he gently moved a chair and sat down.

"How do you feel?" Zhao Mi stretched out his hand to test Jiang Ru's pulse, and could feel that although she was weak, there was a hidden vitality flowing through her whole body.

The cultivation of monsters is no different than that of human beings, and different races have different attacks.Jiang Ru and her people served the Liang clan of Yongjia, and presumably they were also granted immortality, which is different from those monsters in the mountains and forests who groped for themselves and still retained the habit of eating flesh and blood.

Zhao Mi tested Jiang Ru's pulse these days, and found that after she transformed into a human body, although her vitality pulse was similar to that of ordinary people, there was still something mysterious about it.The changes in the air mechanism of the sun, the moon, and the day and night had a particularly obvious impact on her.

"Just a little sleepy and lack of energy." Jiang Ru replied softly.

Zhao Mi nodded: "After all, you were severely injured by Ren Wangchao. Fortunately, you have the protective crocodile fairy clothes, which blocked part of the power of the will-o'-the-wisp magic."

"Thank you for saving me." Jiang Ru looked at Zhao Mi.

"How do you know that I saved you?" Zhao Mi asked, "Your soul was shocked by the will-o'-the-wisp, and you should not be aware of external affairs when you are unconscious."

Jiang Ru's eyes were gentle, and she slowly explained: "Once the fox demon of our lineage is seriously injured and cannot be saved, the spirit will hide in the inner alchemy for self-protection, and wait for the rescue and treatment of the tribe. In case the vitality of the body cannot continue, Then the clansmen will escort the spirit soul to dissect the body. Therefore, my facial features are unknown in my hut, and the spirit hidden in the inner alchemy can still know that you saved me."

"Oh, so that's how it is. I've seen it for a long time..." Zhao Mi couldn't help avoiding Jiang Ru's bright and charming eyes when he remembered his actions during the first aid.

"Actually, you didn't have to work hard to save me." Jiang Ru said with a smile: "Our Jiang family and the Liang family have signed an immortal agreement. Let’s go to the cave together, be enlightened by it, and form the true form.”

When Zhao Mi heard this, she knew that Jiang Ru was comforting herself.But thinking that most of the Qingya Fairyland has been destroyed by the attack of the evil gods from the outside world, Jiang Ru and her people's long-cherished wish may be difficult to realize, but it is difficult for her to say it clearly.

Even if Liang Tao will not only ascend to immortality in the future, but also create a Taoist kingdom on earth, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?Liang Tao asked Zhao Mi to help arrange the ceremonies, but until now there is no follow-up, and he does not know what he is doing.

"Since I asked you to lure out the evil spirits, of course I won't just sit back and watch you get seriously injured." Zhao Mi said.

Although Jiang Ru's body was weak, there was a warm feeling in her heart, her jade wrist moved slightly, and she quietly took Zhao Mi's hand to feel the pulse.

Zhao Mi's mind moved inexplicably, and he withdrew his hand abruptly.

"You..." Zhao Mi got up, with a hasty look on his face: "You should rest well first, I'm busy with business, so I won't accompany you."

After saying this, Zhao Mi rushed out of the quiet room without looking back, leaving Jiang Ru alone on the couch with a lonely look.

……

After Zhao Mi left the quiet room, his thoughts were confused, and he hurried back to the office, ordering people to do things like arrows, counting spiritual materials and artifacts here, sending people to Jianjia Pass there, and helping General Wei select monks to dispatch Wukui troops Each battalion.

After all kinds of trivial matters were dealt with, the sky turned dark unknowingly, and everyone went to work on their own, and Zhao Mi was alone, but was free.

"Why do you humiliate yourself like this?"

Zhao Mi was about to prepare a batch of magic water, when he saw Liang Tao floating in, holding a small wine jar, and said with a smile: "This Chu Mengchun actually hides more than a dozen jars of too yellow fried jade wine, and every year Sending an altar to Difei Mountain is really greedy!"

"Where did you find it?" Zhao Mi was no stranger to Liang Tao's elusiveness: "Chu Mengchun's property has been confiscated, and there is no fried jade wine that is too yellow in the stone cellar where the wine is stored."

"You guys don't even know how to copy your house." Liang Tao put the wine jar on the table in front of Zhao Mi, with some dirt on the surface: "How can such fermented wine prepared with elixir be placed in an ordinary cellar?" ?Naturally, it will be buried under the Jiamu spiritual soil and nourished by the energy of the earth veins. After a long time, even the wine jar itself will show a bit of jade quality."

When Liang Tao spoke, he also folded his fingers and knocked on the wine jar, making a crisp chime.

Zhao Mi was silent when he heard the words. The Bihu Manor built by Chu Mengchun did have a spiritual nursery of medicinal fields. Even if the manor was confiscated, it would be impossible to easily destroy this well-managed spiritual garden of medicinal fields. Who would have thought that there would be wine jars hidden underground.

"Is this wine very precious?" Zhao Mi asked casually.

"Taihuang Fried Jade Brew, as the name suggests, is a three-element primordial elixir that is refined from Taihuang ground. But this elixir has one disadvantage, that is, it is easy to melt in the wind after refining, and it is difficult to keep." Liang Tao said. Dao Lai:
"Later, I, Zhenjun Qingya, the immortal ancestor of the Liang family in Yongjia, changed the formula of Yi Dan, and put the elixir into wine to condense its medicinal properties. But ordinary wine is not enough to condense the medicinal properties of the elixir. Kunlun jade needs to be boiled hot with real fire. Put it in the wine. Take advantage of the boiling water and fire, put in the spirit pill and slowly prepare it."

"Just tell me how to make brewed rice. Aren't you afraid that I'll steal it and pass it on to others?" Zhao Mi asked.

Liang Tao said with a smile: "Do you know how to refine Taihuang Dishi into Shisheng Pill? How should the real fire be used to refine Kunlun Jade? What kind of wine should be used to match the spirit pill? Which solar terms and when to start Fire retreat talisman, can you say it again?"

Zhao Mi was too lazy to argue with the other party, Liang Tao waved his hands and said, "Don't be idle, bring two wine cups. Come to the waterside pavilion by the lake, the moonlight is very beautiful tonight, just in front of the moon."

After saying this, Liang Tao turned into a ray of brilliance and fled away. Zhao Shu had no choice but to follow his temperament, find two wine cups and go to the waterside pavilion by the lake.But Liang Tao said:
"I told you to take the wine cup, but you only take the wine cup? I really have no eyesight! There is wine but no food, and there is no feast, how can you live in this day?"

Zhao Mi put the wine cup on the table and said bluntly: "There is still half a stewed duck in the back kitchen, which is left over from He Dangguan's eating. Do you want it?"

"I'm convinced." Liang Tao shook his head and said with emotion: "You are still a descendant of the Tianxia Dynasty's praise officer, don't you even pay attention to your daily life and diet?"

Zhao Mi sat down and said, "I'm not from a wealthy family. When I was young, I had to move with my grandfather to escape the disaster, and I also suffered from starvation for a few days. I have never experienced the influence of a wealthy family, so naturally I don't have these particularities."

"If you don't, you have to learn. You are the Marquis of Zhenming." Liang Tao lifted the cover of the wine jar, and a rich and delicate fragrance wafted out. He praised: "Mmm! It still smells like this!"

Watching Liang Tao pouring wine, he didn't have the slightest prestige of the national master, but he looked like the disciple of the immortal family who patrolled the country with a sword and was brave and heartfelt.

Seeing that Zhao Mi was sitting there without moving, Liang Tao shook the wine cup and said, "Drink, why don't you drink?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mi frowned slightly: "Have you visited Jiang Ru?"

Liang Tao nodded: "After taking a look, this little fox huddled into a ball and cried, you're really unreasonable this time."

"I don't understand." Zhao Mi said.

"That's why I said you were putting on airs." Liang Tao raised his finger and pointed: "Jiang Ru was pulled back from the dead door by you, can she not be tempted by you?"

"On the battlefield, it's very common to reach out for rescue. You don't have to think about it." Zhao Mi was expressionless.

"Thinking wildly?" Liang Tao looked at Zhao Mi with great interest: "Oh, I see, are you thinking too?"

"I don't care about it, you don't need to say more."

"You are a person who clearly has the guts to face overwhelming monsters, but you don't dare to face your own thoughts." Liang Tao took a sip of fine wine and looked at the moonlight reflection on the water: "Your ancestors who praised the ceremony also admitted that the word "food and sex" Human nature, why do you bother to imitate Zhang Duanjing and be alone? If you can achieve something through hard work, then the donkey that pulls the mill should have been promoted by now!"

"I would like to ask you a question, since you want to be immortal, why do you want to indulge in the secular world?" Zhao Mi looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky: "An expert like you can't understand that worldly troubles are like a snare. It’s a big violation of the puritanical purpose of the Taoist Taoism. When you patrolled the territory with a sword and got involved in it, when you were recalled by the late emperor, you could have taken advantage of the situation to retire and cultivate in order to reassure the hearts of the people. But why did you get deeper into the world?”

"People's expectations? Is there really such a thing?" Liang Tao shook his head: "You are now attracting attention in the Huaxu Kingdom. What do you think of yourself in the eyes of others?"

Zhao Mi was silent for a moment: "In the eyes of different people, I naturally have different faces. At least in the eyes of those local tyrants, I am the king's hawk and cruel official, who ransacked and wiped out my family everywhere."

"Isn't that enough?" Liang Tao spread his hands together: "I, Liang Tao, never look at the popular expectations in my actions. Ordinary people's minds change when things happen, and emotions change when things go wrong. I try my best to cater to them. Are you cultivating immortals?"

"You really don't care about people's expectations?" Zhao Mi suddenly laughed and said, "You are not a Hongxue guest, and you can't be careless. Chongxuanguan and the four surnames of the Xian family are always your burden. You, the teacher of the state Your identity still entangles you a little bit, so much so that you have to change a clone to deal with the world."

Liang Tao raised his chin and nodded slightly: "These few words are a little progress, and the Cangshui River is not in vain."

"You actually expected that I would break through and enter the country when I was facing the crowd of evil spirits, right?" Zhao Mi asked, "That's why you were reluctant to make a move at that time."

Liang Tao said to himself: "Who can fully predict the matter of cultivation? I see that you are ready. As for whether you can succeed or not, it depends on you. But I opened my eyes, relying on a temporary construction If you use the Dharma altar, you can force the drowned ghost Ren Wangchao to fail in two moves, and lose face greatly, and the effect of the spell will be increased dozens or even hundreds of times."

"How? Is this kind of ceremonial ceremony satisfactory to the Master?" Zhao Mi asked.

"What? Do you want to work for me in a hurry?" Liang Tao raised his eyebrows and asked back.

"Some things, the sooner you finish taking care of them, the less you worry." Zhao Mi didn't like that Liang Tao kept hanging himself with this matter, making him unable to get back the Zhenyuan lock for a long time.

"You are so impatient, is it because of this thing?" Liang Tao palmed, and a jade cong with a square outside and a round inside appeared.

Seeing the Zhenyuan lock again, Zhao Mi's face could not help but change slightly, and then he calmed down: "It seems that the magic treasures in Baiegong's cave mansion have not been rewarded casually by the master of the country to the disciples."

"Bai-Ergong, Bai-Er-Gong...you know how to talk." Liang Tao played with the Zhenyuan Lock and asked, "Do you know what this thing is and what it's used for?"

Zhao Mi was secretly nervous, without showing any emotion on his face: "Oh? Please also ask Master Guoshi to give advice."

"In ancient times, jade discs were used to honor heaven and jade cong to honor land. Most people in later generations don't understand why. They think they are just ordinary sacrificial vessels, but in fact they were set up by ancient kings to worship heaven and earth for the sake of peace and prosperity." Liang Tao said:
"And this jade cong is the treasure of the ancient fairy family's deduction of the creation of the heaven and the earth, and a void is opened up inside, just like the method of the pot to hold the heaven and the earth, it can accommodate foreign objects."

"Like those Qiankun pouches and treasure pouches?" Zhao Mi was taken aback. Ling Xiao had never mentioned the magical function of the Zhenyuan lock to him before.

"I can also refine things like this." Liang Tao tapped the jade cong lightly with his finger, a light flashed on the table, and a dozen small wine jars appeared out of thin air. .

"Since it's not a rare magic weapon, can the master of the country give it to you?" Zhao Mi asked tentatively.

"You don't need to be clever." Liang Tao revealed a bit of mystery at this moment: "Let me ask you again, do you know who this thing originally belonged to?"

Zhao Mi knew that it would not be good to cover it up with Lord Baie, but it was inconvenient for him to mention Lingxiao, so he replied casually: "It should be some unknown ancient fairy family."

"When the Chongxuan Pavilion was in the Tianxia Dynasty, it collected a lot of anecdotes about immortal families from ancient times to the present." Liang Tao said, "I have a glimpse of the refining method of this jade cong. After many comparisons, it should be the work of Taixu Yuanjun of Ziji Shanggong. Legacy treasure."

"Taixu Yuanjun?" Zhao Mi was stunned. The Taoist sect has always had a complicated number of honorary titles for the ancestral sanctuary of Xianzhen, and each name is more mysterious than the other. Outsiders are often confused when they see it.

But these titles are complicated, but they also have internal reasons.Ziji Shanggong should refer to the name of the cave that Xianzhen mastered, and Taixu Yuanjun even explained that he is a Jurchen who has attained the Tao.But Liang Tao's statement is completely inconsistent with what Lingxiao said.

"Have you ever heard of this fairy family?" Liang Tao asked.

"No." Zhao Mi shook his head and said, "What's more, this kind of honorary title, at first glance, is given by the Taoist monks of later generations. Don't think that I don't know. When the Chongxuan Pavilion was in the Tianxia Dynasty, it was responsible for drafting the titles for ancient and modern immortals. Where am I? Can you know all about it?"

"Then why do you want this jade cong?" Liang Tao said, "If you talk about its rarity, you won't be so concerned about this object."
