White tea legend

Chapter 5 Aunt Qingzhu
  The Herb Garden is located in the southernmost part of the heaven. Because the herbal spirits have not yet obtained the immortal status, they cannot freely enter and exit the heaven like other gods. Instead, they are separated by a sky lake in an independent radius.

Looking around, the round blue lake is Tianhu.

On the Tianhu Lake, there are vast mist and auspicious clouds. Various aquatic plants stretch their branches and bloom and hang fruits in the mist.

A boat sailed slowly from outside to the small building in the middle of the lake. The small building in the middle of the lake was the Baicao Garden.

On the boat, the girl in purple leaned out to splash the lake water with great interest, but was grabbed back by the boy in red: "Ziyao, be careful!"

"What are you being careful about?" Zi Yao looked at Hualu strangely. Hualu had a worried look on his face, pouted towards the lake and said, "Fang Zhu."

Zi Yao followed the coral's line of sight and saw a large clam looming in the lake.

Fang Zhu is the name of this big clam.

It turns out that this lake is no ordinary lake. The 28 medicinal water essences from the water department live and practice here.

On a moonlit night, large clams are caught and water is stored in their shells. Washing the eyes can improve vision and drinking can calm the mind. It is called "bright water".

Mingshui is one of the 28 waters in the Ministry of Water.

"Fang Zhu wants to be recommended to the Ministry of Water, but he can't get it. He's angry. Be careful he bites you with a clam shell."

Being reminded by Hualu, Zi Yao stuck out her tongue, shook her hands with lingering fear, and then blamed Hualu: "You only told Gualou and not me about the recommended quota, huh!"

After Gualou learned from Bai Cha that Lu Yu would not give her the recommended quota, she started crying in the grass department. With this crying, the entire grass department knew about the recommended quota, so the Eight Immortals crossed the sea and showed their magical powers.

Those who had no connections, just prepared for the exam honestly, and some just settled down, thinking that their qualifications were mediocre and that they had made no progress after three hundred years of practice. They had already chosen a place in the lower realm for themselves, and they were waiting to arrive immediately after failing the exam. Go to the lower world to be free and happy.

Even if you don't become a god, you can still be very majestic in the lower world by relying on your three hundred years of gilded experience in the heaven.

As for Zi Yao, in the grass department, her qualifications can only be considered mediocre. Her mediocre qualifications are really not worth her ambition to make progress. She is worried about not passing the exam, and there is no back door for her connections. When she has no way to ask for help, luckily there is someone standing behind her. coral.

"That day, I was going to tell you about the recommended quota, but you ran away so fast. I didn't tell you on purpose, I accidentally heard it," Hualou said aggrievedly, "Besides, I I didn’t help Guolou go through the back door, but I took you through the back door. Who am I more sincere to? Can’t you feel it?”

There are more than 1800 herbal spirits in the Baicao Garden. They all have different origins and circumstances. Some of them are purely lucky. They enter the Baicao Garden to make up for it, and they will eventually become cannon fodder;
  Those who are outstanding in their own right, shine everywhere, are favored by the miracle doctor, and thus get a ticket to practice in Baicao Garden;
  There are also some who have noble blood and have relatives in the family who are already in the immortal position. They are either recommended or directly parachuted into Baicao Garden. Taking the exam is just a process to gain a little face from the rules of heaven.

Such as coral.

Although Hualu was born in the South China Sea, she has a direct aunt named Qingzhu, who has been living in Shushan and ascended to immortality in Shushan tens of thousands of years ago. Now she is a famous person who can talk to Tianjun.

Coral can enter the stone section of Baicao Garden because it is recommended by Aunt Qingzhu.

Aunt Qingzhu has a close relationship with the director of the Stone Department, Abao, the miracle doctor.

It is said that in the past, the Nuwa clan was refining stones to mend the sky in Zhonghuang Mountain, but there was not enough stone. It was Aunt Qingzhu who worked tirelessly to transport stones from Shushan Mountain to supply the stone.

Nuwa succeeded in mending the sky, and Aunt Qingzhu succeeded in moving stones, so she ascended to immortality.

And the miracle doctor Abao is none other than the Nuwa Stone that came down from the sky.

Aunt Qingzhu has such a deep friendship with the miracle doctor Abao. It stands to reason that the only recommended place for Shibu is Coral. However, apart from Coral, Aunt Qingzhu also has a junior named Qinglanggan.

The Qingzhu family is either born in the sea or in the mountains. Those born in the sea are called corals, and those born in the mountains are called Langgan. Langgan has several colors, and the green one is used as medicine.

This Qinglanggan is the most outstanding among the children in the clan, and because he has lived with Aunt Qingzhu in Shushan since childhood, he is closer to Aunt Qingzhu than Huolan who was born in Nanhai. Both of them are nephews, but they rank in order in Aunt Qingzhu's heart.

Aunt Qingzhu wanted to give Qinglanggan her place as a recommendation, but she was worried that she would not be able to explain it to her relatives who were born in the Nanhai lineage. When she was worried about how to explain to Huan, Huan led Zi Yao to visit her.

Huanhuan has been stationed in Baicao Garden for three hundred years, and it is easy not to visit Aunt Qingzhu's palace. Even if he is isolated by other medicine and stone spirits in the Stone Department, he will not go to Aunt Qingzhu to complain and ask Aunt Qingzhu to support him.

Aunt Qingzhu felt sorry for her nephew from the bottom of her heart, but there was only one recommended spot. If there was Coral, there would be no Qinglanggan, and if there was Qinglanggan, there would be no Coral.

Qingzhu feels that it is difficult to be an aunt, but she has to do it even if it is difficult.

Aunt Qingzhu asked the fairies to move all the rare treasures out of the "Qingzhu Palace" and let Huanhu pick whatever he liked and take away whatever he liked, but Huanhu didn't give any of them. I chose it myself, and only picked a bunch of "Acacia Seeds" to give to the girl in purple beside me.

Only then did Aunt Qingzhu notice that at some point, there was a pretty girl standing next to the coral nephew.

Seeing Aunt Qingzhu looking at Zi Yao, Hualu hurriedly introduced Zi Yao's identity to Aunt Qingzhu: Baicao Garden Caobu, a Lithospermum spirit under the magic doctor Lu Yu.

Aunt Qingzhu frowned slightly: "Lithospermum, I know it has a bitter root and cold nature..."

No matter how you listen to it, you may find it disgusting.

Zi Yao's face changed and she was embarrassed.

Huanhuan hurriedly interrupted Aunt Qingzhu's words and said: "Auntie, there is a saying that 'all my talents will be useful', we Ziyao are very good..."

So she counted down the dates of a certain year, month and day. Zi Yao followed the miracle doctor Lu Yu and cured a child in the world who was bitten by an evil insect, cured a deity in the heaven from carbuncle, and a woman who was dripping wet after giving birth...

However, Aunt Qingzhu didn't have much interest in an unknown Lithospermum. She asked Hualu if she came to visit just to guarantee a quota?
  Coral was overjoyed, but also a little embarrassed, and said: "Nothing can be hidden from my aunt's discernment. My nephew is really looking for the right person to come to aunt."

Even Zi Yao who was beside him was overjoyed.

Aunt Qingzhu looked embarrassed and sighed: "Eldest nephew, you also know that there is only one recommended place, and the competition is fierce..."

"So I came to Auntie for help! If it wasn't a difficult matter, my nephew would never come to trouble Auntie." Coral said pitifully, staring at Aunt Qingzhu with her eyes.

Aunt Qingzhu couldn't bear to refuse, but she couldn't agree, and said: "But your brother Qinglanggan..."

Hualu immediately said: "Qinglanggan is in the stone department and Zi Yao is in the grass department. They have no competition. Auntie, just help Zi Yao!"

Only then did Aunt Qingzhu realize that Coral was not here to seek an escort spot for herself, but to seek an escort spot for Shicao Jing.

"What about yourself?"

"Me?" Huanhuo waved her hand, "If Auntie helps Zi Yao, then you don't have to worry about me. Auntie will let us, Abao, give Qinglanggan the recommended quota for Shibu."

What a silly boy!

Aunt Qingzhu didn't know whether to be angry or grateful. She breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't agree immediately. She just said: "I have no close friendship with the miracle doctor Lu Yu Kusanabe. Can I win the recommended quota? It’s really hard to say.”

This kind of talk can be seen through by Coral, but not by Zi Yao.
