As a eunuch, I don't want to live forever

Chapter 165 Returning to Beijing

The letter from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was quite unexpected to Chen Luo.

But what I didn't expect was the content of this letter,

Seeing Chen Luo, Cat Lady was silent.

came up.

Asking Chen Luo: "Master, is there something wrong in the capital?"

Chen Luo nodded.

"A letter from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Jin Yiwei found a tomb in Duanjian Valley three months ago!"

grave?

Cat Empress said: "Is this tomb wrong?"

"Ok!"

Chen Luo said: "This tomb is the tomb of the demon clan, and at least it is at the level of the demon emperor.

It is not an ordinary demon emperor's tomb...it may be...the legendary nine-tailed demon fox. "

The demon race in the world is divided into classes.

Little demon.

Big demon.

Demon King.

Demon King.

demon saint.

demon emperor.

The little demon is at the Qi Condensation Realm, the big demon is at the Foundation Establishment level, the demon king is at the Golden Core, and the demon king is at the Nascent Soul level.

Over the years, along with the prosperity of the national fortune.

Some hidden caves keep appearing and are occupied and plundered by major sects and sects.

Elixir.

magic weapon,

Cheats.

All were robbed.

Among them, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is the most excessive...

At least half of the ten ancient caves in the Great Zhou Dynasty fell into the hands of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. Forget it, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance still likes to kill people to seize treasures.

In Da Zhou's world of cultivating immortals, his reputation is not very good.

But the ones that have appeared the most over the years are only the caves of human monks.

There has never been a monster like this.

What's more, it is still the existence of this demon emperor level.

As soon as this cave comes out...

The world may not know how many big monsters, even powerful people at the level of monster kings, will be a sensation.

And the monks of the human race will not let it go.

"It's going to be a big fight!"

Said the cat lady.

Chen Luo nodded:

"Whether it is in the territory of Dazhou or Daqin, although there are few news of big monsters making trouble these years, there are actually quite a few big monsters.

It is impossible for Duanjiangu to hide the discovery of the Demon Emperor's tomb.

With the power of the Royal Jinyiwei, it is absolutely impossible to excavate it.

Therefore...

The world of cultivating immortals will definitely know.

Once the world of cultivating immortals knows about it, the demon clan will naturally know about it too. By then, it may be a battle between the demon clan and the cultivators! "

"What do you think, Master?"

Cat Empress asked.

Chen Luo gave Cat Lady a blank look: "What ideas can I have, of course eating, sleeping, reading, fishing, what other ideas can I have?"

As soon as Chen Luo saw the news in the letter, he knew that this frankly was a troublesome matter.

Not to mention that no one knows what is in the tomb of a great demon at the Nascent Soul level.

Even if there is a treasure, what use is it to me?

magic weapon?

I am not envious!

I have the three swords of Apocalypse, Meiji, and Tianshu, and I can't use these three swords by myself.

Who is still free to fight for the magic weapon?

Elixir?

I am an alchemist myself.

As long as the level is sufficient, there is a Dan Fang.

Sooner or later, one day I will be able to practice by myself...

What about the rest?

What do you ask for?
Nascent Soul Pill?Jin Danyin?Zhu Jidan?
That thing is useless to me,

As for the longevity that is the most tempting to cultivators...

I have already owned this thing, so what is there to fight for?
So when I turned around and thought about it... Chen Shi couldn't find any temptation from the Demon Emperor's tomb.

"But what does the cat lady think?"

Chen Luo asked.

The cat lady just slowly took out a copy of "Chu Ci" and read it.

"Mao Niangniang's idea is to be able to read a book quietly..."

Chen Luo laughed.

Really don't say it.

This cat lady is quite like me.

I quite like this character of not fighting or grabbing...

That's right!
Never mind the monstrous flood.

No matter that day the earth fell apart.

No one can stop his determination to just want to be a passerby.

only……

It may be the tomb of the legendary nine-tailed demon fox.

Not far away, he looked at Xiaobai who was biting his own tail, chasing him constantly, and after a while, he ran to Xiaohong's back and jumped back and forth.

Chen Luo darkened slightly.

do not care.

It has its own creation.

Moreover.

He is a nine-tailed demon fox.

This guy can't even be considered a fox...the pig demon is more realistic.

Really have nothing in common.

But I still have to go back to Kyoto.

The letter from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was not just about one thing.

The Tomb of the Demon Emperor is one thing.

There is another matter, but it is related to Chen Luo.

And this is also the most important thing in this letter from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Chen Luo wanted to refine a peerless treasure.

And this refining requires a lot of strange materials.

Jiaolong bone is one.

The spirit of the world is one.

Among them are the Five Elements Lingzhu, the blood of the common people, the spirit of the seabed, etc., and there are more than ten kinds.

Chen Luo once asked Hongxiu to help her find it.

Later, Li Chungang and Sima Junliang were asked to help find it.

The news later reached the ears of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Chen Luo had no hope at all, but this time Emperor Wu of the Han sent a letter, telling Chen Luo that he had helped Chen Luo find five of them.

These are now in Kyoto...

If Chen Luo returns to the capital, remember to come and pick it up.

Really don't say it.

Chen Luo was moved.

Those materials are top-notch materials.

As long as he is willing, if he can settle for the next best thing, relying on the current materials, he can at least refine a magic weapon of the twelfth rank.

Now the world of cultivating immortals has a good magic weapon.

For example, there are Tianqing Leiyan twin swords on Shushan Mountain.

The swords of these two swords are left over from ancient times, but no one has been able to use these two magic weapons so far.

It is said that men and women who need to communicate with each other can use it.

Once the two swords meet.

The power is terrifying.

It is the treasure of Mount Shu...

But even so, the weapon was only of the town faction level.

Even after countless years of tempering, it has reached the current level...

Therefore.

To be able to refine a twelfth-grade magic weapon is actually really good.

After thousands of years of cultivation, it is natural that another town-level magic weapon will appear.

Chen Luo's talent is the fifth rank!
Therefore...

I heard that there are such materials in Kyoto.

Chen Luo naturally had this idea.

That being the case...

Then go back.

I haven't been back to Kyoto for more than 30 years, so it's not a bad thing to go back this time.

Chen Luo asked.

See if anyone is willing to go back with me.

result.

The cat lady thought for a while and shook her head: "Master, the cat lady wants to read a book..."

Chen Luo: ...

Xiaobai: "No, no, I want to sleep..."

Chen Luo: ...

This guy does have a problem recently, he has to fall asleep at every turn, and sometimes he can fall asleep while running.

There is often a bang, which is frightening.

Not going back is actually a good choice.

Otherwise, Chen Luo couldn't carry it by heart along the way.

Xiao Hong kept leaning on herself.

But Chen Luo pushed it away with some disgust... It's not as easy to use as a parachutist, you should just graze in the academy,

As for the parachutist...

Chen Luo also left it behind.

In the past, I left Kyoto alone.

30 years later.

Returning to Beijing alone...

Just right.

exactly.

All as before, as before.

Three days later.

Chen Luo was dressed in white, riding a green gourd, and flew out of Yushan in the sunset...

Go in the direction of Kyoto.

……

Chen Luo went all the way north into Beijing, passing by Chunyang Palace.

The former Chunyang Palace is still there.

There are also two solitary graves.

But the Chunyang Palace, which was supposed to be cool and cold, unexpectedly curled up with smoke.

Chen Luo was slightly taken aback.

Fifty or sixty years have passed since Valin entered Kunlun in the past.

How can there be people in this pure Yang palace?

thinking about...

Chen Luo fell to the Chunyang Palace.

Then I met a young man practicing sword in the courtyard,

The sword is three feet long.

The boy has ten.

The sword rises, the wind rises...

Quite high-spirited.

When seeing the boy, a familiar feeling arises spontaneously.

Immediately, he smiled lightly.

It really is fate...

"Who are you, and how did you come to my Pure Yang Palace?"

The boy saw Chen Luo.

His complexion changed a little.

Holding the sword, she looked at Chen Luo vigilantly, and shouted into the room: "Master, come quickly, someone has come to our Chunyang Palace to make trouble..."

Chen Luo didn't react for a while.

make trouble?

When did you make trouble?

You brat, which eye saw our family come to make trouble?
A woman in the house heard the sound and ran out.

The woman was dressed in palace attire, elegant and beautiful, her face was full of tension, but when she saw Chen Luo, the woman froze in place.

Those eyes turned red.

She looked at Chen Luo.

Chen Luo smiled,

waved.

The woman came over.

Chen Luo stretched out his hand and stroked her head.

"Long time no see, little Hua Ling has become an adult..."

The young man opened his mouth wide and looked at this scene with a look of surprise. He only felt that his outlook on life had been completely refreshed.

……

60 years can change a lot of things.

life and death.

years.

memory,

All kinds can be exhausted.

But some things seem to never change.

In the past, after Chen Luo rescued Hua Ling in Yucheng, the two went northward and sent her to Kunlun Mountain.

So far, Valin has been submerged in Kunlun,

But later, after Hong Yingnv fell, Hua Ling's treatment in Kunlun gradually became worse.

30 years ago, he left Kunlun and returned to Chunyang Palace.

It is not surprising that Valin went to Kunlun.

Chen Luo could have predicted this in the past...

After all, she is a disciple of Pure Yang Palace,

Did not visit Kunlun.

The reason why she was able to stay in Kunlun all depends on the friendship between Hong Yingnv and Lu Lingsha.

Now that the Hongying girl is dead, this friendship is gone, and naturally it will be the day when Hua Ling goes to Kunlun.

only……

Some things seem to be destined.

20 years after leaving Kunlun and returning to Chunyang Palace.

That is ten years ago.

On the way back down the mountain, Hua Ling saved a baby from the mouth of wild wolves.

At that moment, the trajectory of fate turned again.

Lu Lingsha back then.

Later Chen Ping.

Valin today.

"In the past, the master picked up Hua Ling from the pile of dead people, and originally thought that he would never have the chance to see the master again in this lifetime.

But who would have thought that fate would be such a coincidence...

then,

Over the years, Hua Ling has not gone down the mountain, and has been accompanying him in this Chunyang Palace..."

Hua Ling said.

There was an indescribable emotion in his eyes.

She saw Chen Ping's shadow on that child...

Just like when Chen Ping saw the shadow of his master in her back then.

"No more going down the mountain?"

Chen Luo asked.

Hua Ling shook his head: "Nowadays, the world of cultivating immortals is very dangerous, and various sects are fighting openly and secretly.

Chunyang Palace is just a small sect, the whole sect is up and down, and there are only two of us, master and apprentice... Instead of living a life of fear, it is better to be more ordinary. "

simple is the best.

this is correct.

And this is not just what Valin wants to live.

It happened to be what Chen Luo wanted too.

Over the years, isn't he just like this?

only……

"He's still young."

Chen Luo said: "His life has just begun, is he willing to go on like this?"

Hua Ling was silent.

Naturally, he knew who Chen Luo was referring to.

"He'll understand someday."

Hua Ling said.

"What if you don't understand?"

"Then I will stay with him... even if he hates it, I will silently stay behind him."

Chen Luo stopped talking.

A very familiar scene...

Lu Lingsha back then.

Chen Ping back then.

Chen Luo left...

Facing the sunset and the breeze, continue northward to Kyoto.

The little boy held Master's hand, looked at the departing shadow, and asked Master: "Master, tell me, can I fly like that one day?"

woman silent,

It took a long time before he said: "When that day comes, if you can fly, will you leave Master?"

The boy shook his head.

Very firm: "No, I will always be by Master's side."

The woman laughed.

A smile is prettier than a flower.

"Master will always protect you, even... Even if one day, you hate Master."

"No, I won't hate Master."

the boy said.

The woman hummed.

then……

A boy once said the same thing.

……

March of the 20th year of Hanwu.

Snowflakes fly.

Wrapped in silver.

The Great Zhou capital is like a flood dragon entrenched in the snowy sky, about to break through the darkness at any moment, showing its indestructible fangs.

This was supposed to be a day when I spent leisure time at home, burned charcoal for warmth, chatted about household chores, and the dogs didn't want to go out.

But in the capital, it is still very lively.

A Taoist priest walks the streets,

There are monks for alms.

There are also Jianghu knights...

There are hawkers.

There are literati and scholars.

More dignitaries,

There are all kinds of people in the world,

In the Fortune Inn.

There are storytellers who are telling stories.

It is about the Battle of the Plains by General Huo Qi:

"General Huo Qi faced the galloping Daqin iron cavalry single-handedly, without fear, killing them covered in blood, killing them so that they turned their backs... and even more so that they were full of fear.

Guess what happened in the end?

However, he saw that he was holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, advancing instead of retreating, and went straight to the army of the Great Qin Iron Cavalry. Flee in embarrassment.

Fighting tens of thousands of cavalry alone with the strength of one person, although this General Huo Qi is not a fairy, he is my Great Zhou God of War! "

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

Someone shouted.

Someone threw the copper coin in his hand to the storyteller.

Slapping the table, drinking... full of excitement and excitement.

Chen Luo also listened with gusto.

He took out a few copper coins and landed them on the plate in front of the storyteller impartially, making a clear clang.

He is a storyteller.

Listen to the book yourself.

He said it well.

Naturally, I should pay for it, this is the rule.

I haven't been back to Beijing for decades, but everything is still so familiar.

Especially this restaurant.

It's as if nothing has changed...

of course.

There are still changes.

The former Fuying Restaurant was owned by Ji's family.

Now these years, this industry has become someone else's industry...

Chen Luo came here after entering Beijing.

I have the idea of ​​taking a good rest.

Of course, I also have the idea of ​​feeling the changes in Kyoto,

If not...

How can I listen to such wonderful storytelling?
Chen Luo drinks,

listen to books.

It's quiet.

But it was recognized after all.

A somewhat surprised and excited voice came over: "Chen...Grandpa Chen?"

Wang Lu rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Confirmed again and again.

Only then took a few quick steps up.

He was about to kneel down to Chen Luo.

It's just that he couldn't kneel down no matter what, but it was Chen Luo who stopped him.

"You are???"

He looked at the middle-aged man in his forties and didn't recognize him for a while.

Somewhat familiar.

But where exactly I saw it, I can't think of it.

"I, Grandpa Chen, the ten-year-old Wang's Douhua once gave Douhua to Grandpa Chen. Do you still have any memory?"

Chen Luo finally remembered.

"It turned out to be you. I didn't expect to see you after all these years, and you have become so big."

When Chen Luo lived in Kyoto, he loved bean curd very much.

Especially the sweet bean curd, I miss it even more...

Later, because they liked it, the Wang brothers took over the bean curd stall that had been managed by their son and daughter-in-law.

The purpose was to give Chen Luo his favorite bean curd.

This Wang Lu is the grandson of the man of the Wang family^...

During that period of time in the capital, this Wang Lu brought him tofu curd every day.

Especially early in the morning.

As soon as he opened the yard, he could be seen waiting outside the backyard door with bean curd.

Unexpectedly, over the years, going around in circles.

But the ten-year-old kid has changed a lot now.

"Grandpa Chen hasn't returned to Beijing for 30 years, and I'm [-] this year. There will always be some changes."

Wang Ludao: "Master Chen hasn't changed at all these years."

Chen Luo is a cultivator of immortality,

Wang Lu naturally knew about it.

As time goes by...

In fact, Chen Luo's reputation in the Great Zhou has gradually bottomed out,

Some people remember

But it's just the older generation,

The younger generation may not necessarily remember...

Chen Luo was also used to it, and this in itself was what he wanted.

With his high profile in the world, he wants to be an existence that is so ordinary that it can be ignored...

It is not easy to be recognized in the crowd at a glance.

Chen Luo asked Wang Lu to sit down.

Wang Lu was a little panicked.

But finally sat down.

Elders please, dare not say goodbye.

Therefore, Chen Luo also knew something about the current Wang family.

This restaurant happens to be the property of the Wang family.

In the past, Wangjia Douhua was famous in Kyoto because it did not compete with the father-in-law, and later became one of the indispensable delicacies in Kyoto.

The Wang family was born because of this.

Just like the Ji family back then.

The current Wang family also rose because of Chen Luo.

This Fuying restaurant was bought by the Wang family from Jin Yiwei...it has become their property.

I heard that the Wang family has been cleaning the gate of my yard every day these years.

Chen Luo fell silent.

After a long time, he said, "I've worked hard all these years."

Wang Lu panicked: "This is what the Wang family should do. If there hadn't been Grandpa Chen all these years, there wouldn't be the current Wang family.

Although Grandpa Chen did not return to Kyoto.

But the family is still here... All the Wang family can do is help Mr. Chen clean up. "

Chen Luo nodded.

Say no more...

It's a good intention to pick them up.

He has a predestined relationship with the Wang family...

The Douhua in the past, the Heaven-sent sword later, the Wang family couple 30 years ago...

Chen Luo doesn't mind some things.

Just like Ji Bao back then.

People live... always want to meet some new people.

Otherwise, when the old man leaves, I will really be alone in this world...
