Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 712: A few fractions of light
At sunrise, a blue bird rode a whirlwind and landed outside the Purple Air Palace, turning into a small blue bird.
"Jiang Lan, go back and rest."
"Okay."
At this time, a voice came from the palace and said: "Chu Jianglan, come in."
The two looked at each other, both a little surprised.
Usually, no matter whether the little blue bird is there or not, all the people Lu Tong calls are the little blue birds.
"Go quickly."
The little blue bird urged.
Chu Jianglan quickly entered the palace and said: "Meet the Lord."
Lu Tong sat on the couch, looking a little sleepy, with many books and scrolls placed on his left and right.
"Jiang Lan, how is your master?"
"Very good."
"Where is she?"
"In Yuanxiang City, Master moved Wanyin Water Pavilion to Yuanxiang City, in the trapped water valley next to Qilu Mountain in the east of the city."
Lu Tong nodded slowly, thought for a while alone, and said: "I want to see your master, and I need to use your identity to cover it up. Don't go back today, just rest in the hall and don't go out."
"Master, I will inform the master immediately and ask the master to come in person."
Lu Tong waved his hand and said: "This matter is very important. Don't interfere or spread the word. Just pretend that nothing happened. Do you understand?"
"Yes."
Chu Jianglan was very confused, but didn't ask any more questions.
Lu Tong took out a black jade bed with four salamanders guarding it, placed it on the left side of the hall, and said, "This is Ni Xuanqu's treasure. I will leave it for you and the little blue bird to rest in the future."
"Thank you, Lord!"
"Is there a formation for the waterside pavilion?"
"Yes."
The two had a conversation.
After Lu Tong understood clearly, he put away the books and other things around him, thought for a while alone, turned into a six-blue bird and flew out of the hall.
Qilu Mountain, one of the 100 mountains, was established very late, so its location is very remote.
Wanyin Water Pavilion is located behind the mountain and is more remote, but its business is very good.
Because all the respectable people in Yuanxiang City have heard that the owner of the waterside pavilion is an old acquaintance of the king, and his direct disciple has been working for the king.
A six-blue bird flew over the top of the mountain. Along the way, monks, flying boats, cloud chariots, etc. all got out of the way when they saw a green shadow.
In the trapped water valley, there is a secluded pool with mist in the center, vaguely revealing several flying cranes, leaping whales, head-scratching white monkeys and other overhangs.
Several awning boats and painted boats floated on the water.
Lu Tong flapped his wings, walked around to the back of the formation, and fired a line of mana into the formation. After entering the formation, there is still a formation in front of you, and the sound of silk and bamboo can be heard from the front.
He took out a jade talisman, held it in front of him and escaped into the formation.
There are several small courtyards within the array.
Lu Tong spread his magic power and searched within a few miles, but did not find Cao Fu. He spread his wings and flew to the small courtyard in the northwest corner of the courtyard.
There are mountains, trees, and a small building in the courtyard. A maid stood at the door of the small building and said: "Miss, the water is ready. Xiaoying has just gone to get the meal."
"Go and call Madam and tell her that there is something urgent to discuss."
"Yes."
The maid left quickly.
Lu Tong went upstairs alone and entered the study room located in the corner of the third floor.
The study is not big, but the layout is very exquisite.
There is a strange stone four feet high. There are three holes in the stone, and a breeze with rich spiritual energy blows out of it;
There is a painting of a woman dancing with a sword, performing a very agile sword technique;
There is an orb as big as a human head, the light emitted is soft, white and pure...
He restrained his blood, walked to the table, looked at the tiger hair gold pen, purple gold stone inkstone, etc. on the table, and murmured: "I can't tell, he enjoys it more than me, the king of the country."
After a while, there was a knock on the study door, and a voice sounded outside.
"Jiang Lan?"
Lu Tong released his magic power, opened the door after testing it, and immediately closed the door when Cao Fu came in.
When Cao Fu saw Lu Tong, her expression changed instantly, she leaned down and said, "Greetings to the Lord."
"Sit."
Lu Tong sat behind his desk and put down his gold pen.
Cao Fu sat down carefully.
Lu Tong looked at it, shook his head with a smile, and said, "How is the business at Shuixie?"
"Thanks to the king's care, business is very good."
After Cao Fu finished speaking, she stood up again, straightened her clothes and knelt on the ground, saying, "Thank you so much, Lord, for killing Du Yin, which relieved the great hatred in my heart."
Lu Tong nodded slowly and said: "Get up."
Cao Fu bowed, stood up, walked to the side, picked up a gourd, and poured a glass of green spiritual water.
"Your Majesty, please have some tea."
Cao Fu put down her teacup and saw a page of paper on the desk full of writing. Her eyes subconsciously stopped for a moment, and she immediately looked away after she woke up.
"It doesn't matter, I originally wrote it for you."
Lu Tong picked up the paper he had just written and said: "There is something that requires you to come forward. This matter must be kept secret. Please take a look first."
He handed over the paper.
Cao Fu took it and looked at it for a while, then her expression changed slightly and she looked sideways at Lu Tong.
Lu Tong was holding the tea cup, swallowing the honey-like sweet tea, and said: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay."
Cao Fu shook her head repeatedly, retracted her gaze and continued to look at the paper. After a long time, she put down the paper with a strange expression.
Lu Tong finished drinking the tea and said, "How is it?"
Cao Fu raised her head, hesitated, and said: "Master, is this 'Shou' the 'Shou Fairy' who lives in Yuquan?"
"Yes."
Cao Fu lowered her head.
Lu Tongtong: "Why, you don't dare?"
"No."
Cao Fu took a deep breath and said: "I'm worried about ruining the king's...the king's good things."
"Don't think too much, just follow what's written on the paper and test it step by step. If she doesn't mean it, stop immediately, do you understand?"
"Understood."
Lu Tong stood up, took back the paper in Cao Fu's hand, and said: "This matter is secret. No one is allowed to use Mingluo to send a message, and no third person is allowed to know about it."
"Yes."
……
A few days later.
Yuquan is located in several hills on the west side of Baoguo. The mountains are very short, but extremely beautiful. The mountains are graceful and full of strange pines and strange rocks.
A carriage stopped outside the mountain.
Cao Fu got off the car and walked along the hiking trail for half an hour, climbed over two mountains, and came to the mouth of a small stream.
"Stop!"
A maid stood guard at the mountain pass and asked: "Who is it?"
Cao Fu stepped forward and said: "Cao Fu of Wanyin Shuixie came from Yuanxiang City. He heard that Fairy Sushou was good at silk weaving, so she came here specifically to ask for advice."
"Become a disciple and seek Dharma?"
"No. The king asked for a brocade robe, and my apprentice worked in front of the king and took over this matter. This matter is of great importance, so I came here to ask the fairy for help."
"Wait a moment."
After burning the incense, the maid appeared again and said: "Please come with me."
"Okay."
Cao Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself: According to what the king said, is this a bit of light?
……
Soon, half a month passed.
Inside the Purple Air Palace late at night.
Ji Shu said: "Your Majesty, the last news was wrong. Yi Er revealed that sweeping a whisk can assist Zuo in his practice. Ni Qixiu once used a whisk to practice."
Lu Tong sat on the couch, his eyes fixed, and he smiled: "It's rare, I never thought that even you would be teased."
Ju Mao smiled bitterly.
"I still underestimated Master Yuanying, should I bring Ni Qixiu over?"
Lu Tong waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I already have a plan. If it doesn't work here, it's not too late to go find her."
Jushou breathed a sigh of relief and handed over a map.
"Your Majesty, there is a Jiangzhu Shenxu in Yihe River, located three hundred miles upstream of the White Ape Kingdom. I have sent people to investigate."
Lu Tong took the map.
There are many branches in the lower reaches of Yihe River, which are shaped like flower-branched brontosaurus. Between the branches are large swamps and tidal flats. There are more than a dozen countries scattered on the branches.
He crossed the Shenxu, looked farther away, and murmured: "Xiaozhao, Tianlian, Yiyang, Xiyin..."
There is a large sect in Yihe named Jiuling Sect.
The Jiuling Sect was not a sect at first, but nine small sects merged into one.
The secret method passed down in the sect is somewhat similar to the powerful method of surrender. A soul is sacrificed in the soul. This soul is inherited from the ancestor and can borrow the ancestor's magical powers and spells. Now it is divided into nine countries.
The drama waits quietly.
Lu Tong shook his head and said: "Don't rush into action yet. The country's strength is not yet at its peak, and the situation in Jiguo and Jianzeguo is unclear. Let's cultivate for some time first."
"Yes."
The next day, Lu Tong called Chu Jianglan again and turned into a six-blue bird and flew towards the waterside pavilion.
"Miss, the water is ready..."
"Go and ask Madam."
"Yes."
A moment later, in the study room.
Cao Fu entered the room and when she saw Lu Tong, she immediately said: "Your Majesty, three points of light are gone."
Lu Tong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.
There is an anecdote in the records about Su Shou. Su Shou joined the Baolian Sect at an early age. Before becoming a Taoist monk in the sect, he had a childhood sweetheart from the same sect.
Such things happen frequently in various sects.
After he saw it, he had the idea of testing it.
An ounce of light is an ounce of opportunity.
The first test is to test whether it is hot or cold, and take the initiative to come to the door to see if Su Shou can refuse others;
The second test of caution is to invite Sushou to see if he is willing to leave the cave;
Thirdly, he tested Lonely and Widowed, and invited him repeatedly and treated him warmly. It turns out that Lingshou prefers a deserted cave or a lively waterside pavilion.
Cao Fu said that there were three points of light, indicating that Su Shou had visited the house many times.
Lu Tong sat on the chair, raised his hand to signal Cao Fu to sit down, and said, "Let's talk about it."
"Yes."
Cao Fu sat on a chair, thought about it for a while, and said, "I came to ask for help in weaving a brocade robe. I heard that Su Shou was related to the king, so he passed on a technique to me."
Cao Fu took out the method and handed it over.
Lu Tong did not take it and said, "This is what you deserve."
"Thank you, Lord."
Cao Fu stood up and thanked her, and continued: "I came twice in a row. The second time I invited Su Shou to come to the waterside pavilion, but she didn't agree. The third time I came to the door, I asked again, saying that the journey was far away and it was inconvenient. So Su Shou did this. Agree. Now I will come here every three days. I will come after sunrise and leave before sunset. The next time will be the day after tomorrow."
Lu Tong thought for a while and said, "How did you entertain me?"
"Wine, dance, music, there are all the things that should be included. Once I invited a handsome young man to dance with a sword. I was rewarded with a piece of beautiful jade and asked to leave. However, I saw her look, which seemed a little sad. Resentment."
Lu Tong was thinking in his mind.
Ni Boxi, the last sect member of Baolian Sect, most of the records about this person are praiseworthy words.
Lu Tong was very skeptical about this.
But a person who deserves the reputation in the book cannot do such a thing.
When this person went to Tianwaitian, he did not take Sushou with him. No matter what the reason was, the relationship between the two was definitely not deep.
"Get ready, we may meet by chance next time."
"Yes."
……
"Woo"
The sound of the flute is resentful.
On the second floor of a withered flower and wood building, the ground is covered with silk threads of various colors, some thick, some thin, some gold, silver and some silk.
Cao Fu and Su Shou sat on a soft couch respectively.
On the other side, several women in colorful clothes were dancing.
Cao Fu seemed to be in a state of uneasiness. She would stop moving from time to time, look at the dancer, or look out the window.
After several times in a row, Su Shu put down the silk thread and said: "What's wrong, junior sister? If there is something else, we can continue next time."
Cao Fu smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "Senior sister, you are overthinking it."
Su Shou didn't think much about it at first, but after hearing it, he couldn't help but feel curious and asked: "What's going on? I noticed junior sister looking outside several times."
Cao Fu looked embarrassed, hesitated a few times, and whispered: "What else could it be? I miss a man."
"What?"
Sushou froze in place.
Cao Fu cast a spell, and a gauze curtain was hung between the two of them and the dancer, and said: "Senior sister, I heard that you don't have a Taoist companion, how do you usually resist?"
Su Shou was a little embarrassed, lowered his head and fell into silence.
Cao Fu also turned red and asked bravely: "This thing is like a ball of fire. It ignites every few days and can burn people to death."
"Okay."
Sushou shook his head repeatedly.
Cao Fu handed over a cup of tea and said, "Senior sister, please take pity on my poor sister. Is there a magic way to keep one's heart pure and have few desires?"
Taking the tea cup with his bare hands, he took a big sip, shook his head and said, "How can there be such a method? Even if there is, I have never seen it."
"How did my sister survive it?"
Su Shou calmed down, returned the teacup, and said: "Okay, you can solve your troubles by yourself. That's it for today. I'm going back."
"Sister, I'm sorry, it was my sister who was wrong..."
Su Shou ignored it and flew out of the formation.
Cao Fu looked at the direction Su Shou was leaving, feeling very surprised in her heart, and said to herself: "Oh my God, I didn't do anything, why did I catch fire? The Lord of the country is really not an ordinary person..."
After thinking about it, Cao Fu couldn't help but thought to herself: "Such a mind is actually used to plot against women, my lord, it seems that the rumors are true."
A few days later, Cao Fu and Su Shou met again, each sitting on the couch kneading various silk threads together. ~IndoMTL.com~Cao Fu's fingers flew, and she quickly wrapped the gold thread with a bundle of white thread, without revealing any golden light.
"Thanks to my sister's wonderful method, otherwise I wouldn't know..."
"Little Fucao, where are you hiding?"
A voice sounded outside.
Sushou's expression changed slightly.
Cao Fu ignored Su Shou, stood up quickly, greeted him with a smile, and said, "Senior brother, this way."
Lu Tong walked out of the stairs.
"Long time no see, I came here to visit..."
He suddenly stopped mid-sentence and said, "Hey, Fairy Sushou is here too."
Su Shou stood up immediately.
"I have met the king."
"Don't be formal, sit down and talk."
Lu Tong seemed to come here often, minding his own business and walked to the side and sat down.
Cao Fu went to serve tea personally.
Shou stood for a while and said, "Junior sister Cao, I think that's the end of the day. Let's continue next time."
Cao Fu immediately walked over, took Su Shou's arm, and said, "Sister, don't leave. It just so happens that Senior Brother is here. Let's take the opportunity to decide on the size and ask Senior Brother what he thinks."
"What's wrong?" Lu Tong asked.
Cao Fu didn't give Su Shou a chance to refuse, and said quickly: "It's the same brocade robe. Senior brother is blessed, I invited senior sister Su Shou to weave it together, this time it must be the only brocade robe in the world."
Lu Tong smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you both in advance."
Slowly sit down with bare hands.
Cao Fu turned around to pour the tea, waited for a while, and saw that Su Shou did not say goodbye again. She felt relieved and said to herself: "It's four points."
In the fourth attempt to avoid suspicion, Lu Tong came to see if Su Shou insisted on leaving.
The fifth test is likes and dislikes...
Lu Tong looked calm and already had a lot of confidence in his heart.
Things have come to this point, and what follows is an inch-by-inch test, and at the same time, an inch-by-inch intimacy.
