Chapter 65
After the double cultivation, the two stayed warm for a long time, and then they packed up. Yu Chengbi was ordered to garrison this fortress. On weekdays, he seldom saw anyone in charge, and only his direct descendants knew his whereabouts. It was because he was too lazy to deal with those people who wanted to make connections with ulterior motives, and he just took Bai Yuetang for a stroll around here.
On this day, the sky was dark, it was raining lightly, and there was a slight cold wind blowing all around, which was both cloudy and cold.Originally, Bai Yuetang didn't like this kind of weather, but with Yu Chengbi, walking in the rain seemed to have a different taste, so the two of them didn't perform any magic tricks, but just held up an azure oil-paper umbrella and dangled out. out of town.
Although this is a frontier fortress, monks are not restricted from going out and entering the wilderness outside the city on weekdays, because many precious spiritual grasses and magic grasses grow in some inaccessible places, and unless martial law is imposed, people in the city can come and go freely.Moreover, although Tashan City is located in the territory of the Demon Dao, the people of the Demon Dao have always acted willfully and casually. Recently, the beast tide war has been tense, and the monks of the Demon Dao are not in a hurry to replenish. They were expelled, but their safety cannot be guaranteed. Of course, most spiritual practitioners who can come to Tashan City to find opportunities also understand that wealth and wealth come from danger, and if they want to get a share of the magic land, they must take risks.In addition, knowing that Tashan City has a god-divided ancestor sitting in the town, and several nearby battles are tense, many casual cultivators in the defensive strongholds that are at a disadvantage have defected into Tashan City, and many of them are spiritual practitioners and spiritual demons.
Therefore, the monks guarding the city gate were not too surprised to see the patriarch and a long fairy-like spiritual cultivator leaving the city with an umbrella.Is it difficult for a hero to be a beauty? The patriarch of Yucheng is only [-] years old. To be able to become a patriarch, he must be a talented person with amazing luck. He is naturally a hero. It is really not normal to have a beautiful woman by his side. It's all right, although the beauty's cultivation base is not high, but everyone thinks that she is just a plaything, and she looks good.
Bai Yuetang and Yu Chengbi naturally don't care about other people's thoughts. At their level, except for some special things, many things no longer have any impact on them.The two walked slowly, walking on the bank of the black water and red flowers. The battles of the previous few days had trampled countless red flowers into mud, but the countless blood watered new flowers, and the newly bloomed The flowers seem to be more colorful and eye-catching than before, as if they are the only bright color between the dull bluestone black water and the gray world. In the slight drizzle, the crystal water drops rolling on the petals look more and more mysterious beauty.
Bai Yuetang told Yu Chengbi about her encounter with Emperor Mu Daoqing of the Shang Qing Dynasty before, and told Yu Chengbi the authentic information from Yuan Ze together with the results of his analysis.
While listening, Yu Chengbi walked side by side with Bai Yuetang, holding an umbrella for him, and said nothing for a long time.
Yu Chengbi never talked much, but this time the pause was too long. Bai Yuetang stopped, turned around and looked at Yu Chengbi's handsome face and asked, "What's wrong with you, Chengbi?"
He touched Yu Chengbi's cheek with some worry, and asked, "Are you worried about our future ascension?" He took Yu Chengbi's other hand, and comforted, "Although we two belong to the Wu clan, There is no need to run away as a successor, but, together, I feel that there is no place we cannot go, we will find a way, but it is really impossible to solve it, as long as we are together, it is nothing if we don’t ascend It's a big deal, if it's a big deal, we will also be a pair of free spirits, playing in the world, isn't it also very good."
Yu Chengbi came back to his senses, and when he heard Bai Yuetang's words, there was emotion and pity in his eyes, "I'm fine," Yu Chengbi smiled apologetically, as if he was thinking about what to say, "I just remembered one thing , some doubts."
Yu Chengbi held Bai Yuetang in his arms and continued to walk, while saying, "Do you still remember when you and I first met?"
Bai Yuetang nodded, "Remember, you were trapped in that secret room in the belly of Qingyang Mountain."
Yu Chengbi pondered for a while and said, "That's right, I was trapped, but I don't remember why I was trapped there, and how I fell into the hands of those people in Qingyang Mountain."
The meaning of these words was a bit vague, but Bai Yuetang suddenly understood what Yu Chengbi wanted to express, "You mean, you didn't go there by yourself, or that your related memories disappeared?"
Yu Chengbi narrowed his eyes, "I remember that I was going to retreat at that time, in the secret room of the Desire Immortal Palace, which is supposed to be the safest place, and it is impossible for me to be attacked there, and at that time, I It's already a late-stage Golden Core cultivation, so how can it be restrained by Li Qingniu, who is also a late-stage Golden Core and has a loose cultivation?"
Bai Yuetang also frowned, "This matter is indeed strange, could it be that someone else was involved in kidnapping you?" He thought for a while, "The other party has spent a lot of effort to get you out of the Desire Immortal Palace What is the purpose of being tied up? But what was asked of you to do, or what was asked of Desire Immortal Palace?"
Yu Chengbi looked inexplicable, "Actually, I suspect that Yu Linglong knew about the fact that I was kidnapped." He paused, as if recalling something, "At that time, Yu Linglong was already at the early stage of distraction. People can do these things under his nose without anyone noticing."
Bai Yuetang was even more puzzled, "Then why did he let you be robbed? Could it be that he knew you would be fine? Or was he also involved in that matter?" Bai Yuetang also paused, and said, "One more thing, this What does this matter have to do with Ascension?"
Yu Chengbi looked at Bai Yuetang and smiled, "I don't know the reason for this matter. I know you just told me that Mu Daoqing told you the word key."
Bai Yuetang's thoughts turned, her eyes widened in disbelief, "No way! Could it be..."
"When I was detained by them, I was taken blood by them, and I vaguely remember that someone mentioned the word key." Yu Chengbi recalled this matter, "It's just that I never understood that the key What do you mean, and," Yu Chengbi recalled Bai Yuetang's other two questions before, "I think that the reason why I went there was probably done by other distracted monks, and this person's cultivation should be extremely high. Being in the righteous way, but able to walk between the righteous and evil ways calmly, the Mu Daoqing you mentioned just now is somewhat suspicious."
Bai Yuetang felt distressed after hearing Yu Chengbi's words, and asked, "Apart from the bloodletting, do you have any other injuries? I remember that when I entered the cave, Li Changfeng used you as the energy source of the formation, and almost sacrificed you about you!"
"It's okay, I was imprisoned before and I couldn't move at all, but it seems that after taking the blood, no one strengthened the restraint on my body. It's just that the ten thousand years of black ice restrained my spiritual power, and I was a little slow to break it." Bai Yuetang Showing a conciliatory smile, "According to my guess," Yu Chengbi thought for a while, "The feeling that those people gave me was that they were looking for something related to blood, so they took my blood, but those people People should not have the idea of killing me. At that time, you killed Li Changfeng and left, but I found his soul. Searching for the soul found that he knew very little, but the person who took my blood was in Li Changfeng's house. In my memory, I was wearing a green shirt, and my face seemed to be covered with mist, so I can't know his appearance."
Bai Yuetang said, "Now there is one more mystery, and we don't know whether your blood is the key they said." Then he asked as if remembering something, "Those people haven't looked for you since then?"
Yu Chengbi shook his head, "No, since then, everything has been as usual."
Bai Yuetang also fell into deep thought, with more and more doubts.Yu Chengbi smoothed Bai Yuetang's frown, knowing that he was worried about herself, and smiled slightly, "Let's not talk about this, according to the news you got, among the people who have ascended in the past, there are half and half of immortals and demons, but there are no monsters." ?”
Bai Yuetang nodded, "This is indeed very strange. According to what I learned from the murals in Qinglian Cave, the monster clan is a branch closely related to the witch clan, and it is also the blood essence of the ancestral witch. But in the later battles, they But they did not stand on the side of the witch clan, and of course they did not help the fairy and demon clans, but chose to stand by. Could this be the reason why no one from the monster clan has been able to ascend successfully?"
Yu Chengbi nodded, "At that time, from the point of view of the heaven and the mortal world, the immortals and demons won the battle. Although the demons did not help the witches, they did not help the immortals and demons either. Therefore, they may be angered afterwards, and they did not Tell them how to find and open the gates of heaven."
Bai Yuetang and Yu Chengbi held umbrellas, and they no longer entangled in the matter of ascension. It was still early, so they might not be unable to ascend.The two of them continued to walk comfortably, getting very close to each other, walking in the sea of red flowers, the silvery white clothes were wetted by the dew on the flowers, and they also showed some red, Bai Yuetang looked interesting and asked, "Where is this?" What kind of flower is it that can stain the cassock of Longxiaosha?"
Holding an umbrella, Yu Chengbi heard the words, "This kind of flower is called Phoenix blood. It is rumored that it is transformed by the blood of the divine beast Phoenix. It can only be watered by blood. If the blood is lost, it will wither in a few days. These flowers on the riverside here are grown every day." During the next beast tide, they will all be spawned, and after the beast tide is over, they will bear seeds again and bury them in the soil, waiting to be awakened by blood next time."
Bai Yuetang clicked her tongue, "Unexpectedly, the beauty of this flower is such a domineering thing."
Yu Chengbi smiled slightly, "This flower is so domineering and delicate, but it does have two uses."
"Oh?" Bai Yuetang was aroused, looked at Yu Chengbi, and waited for him to continue.
Yu Chengbi said slowly, "First, Phoenix blood can be squeezed to extract dye, which is a very precious dye, a red color called Phoenix blood, which is said to be very bright and never fades; the second is to refine Medicine, this phoenix blood harmonizes yin and yang, and has mild properties, so it can be used as a high-quality medicine for pleasure." After speaking, she looked at Bai Yuetang, then bent down to pick a flower of phoenix blood, and put it in Bai Yuetang's hand.
Bai Yuetang's eyes were playful, she took the phoenix blood, and continued to ask, "Since this flower is so precious, why don't people come out to pick it?"
Yu Chengbi's eyes were a little deep, and he was about to speak, but he heard a lazy sigh from Huahai, "It's not because the flowers are difficult to preserve."
Bai Yuetang and Yu Chengbi looked at each other, knowing that someone was going to talk to them, and after a little sensing, they found the person, and then slowly followed the direction of the voice.
