"You are still lying on the ground? A disciple from the Fifth Elders' House actually broke into the Common People's House. Do you know what the crime of breaking into the Common People's House is in Taichu Mountain?"
Xuanzhu spoke slowly. He was born evil, and speaking in such a weird tone, he was just like an evil demon. But in fact, all the disciples who have been in the inner sect of Taichu Mountain for a long time know that Xuanzhu's true form is actually Xuanzhu...
The Xuanzhu is a bamboo species that grows in the bamboo forests of the snowy plains of Xueyou Mountain. This type of bamboo grows by breaking through the ice. There is only one place in Xueyou Mountain where ice is formed, and that place is also called the Sky Mirror.
Back then, the second elder Hua Yanyue went to Xueyou Mountain to look for a kind of ice silkworm, but unexpectedly before leaving, he met a black bamboo spirit that had transformed into a child.
On the vast snowy plain, a naked little kid followed Hua Yanyue happily and ran all the way. If Hua Yanyue hadn't thought that he was a bamboo and had no great medicinal value, she would have caught him and thrown him into the alchemy furnace.
However, he really followed her down Xueyou Mountain, and she couldn't go back, so Hua Yanyue paid attention to him. She saw that he followed her example and found some herbs that Hua Yanyue had found and buried deep under the snow for her.
Hua Yanyue thought that her courtyard was in need of such a clever little guy, so she explored his spiritual roots. After discovering that he had pure wood spiritual roots, she took him in as her apprentice and brought him back to the mountain.
When she first brought it back, the black bamboo was only up to Hua Yanyue's waist, but the bamboo grew so fast that within a few months, her tiny apprentice had grown into a big man taller than her.
Xuanzhu and Hua Yanyue have been here for many years. In addition to refining elixirs, their personalities have also changed from the original. They have become eccentric, hot-tempered and eccentric. They rarely go out and, because they are bamboo spirits, they don't even eat. In the end, they are basically nowhere to be found.
Things have been even more exaggerated in recent years. He even fails to show up at various important sect events, causing other elders' senior disciples, who are running around the sect and taking new disciples on trials, to complain about him.
Of course, Xiao Mian also heard all this from other places, but no matter what, he sat up from the ground, looked at Xuan Zhu's torture-like expression, and thought that he was essentially a bamboo shoot, so he didn't bother with him.
Bamboo shoots, aren't they just damaged
Xiao Mian stood up and glanced at Leng Mushi, who was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly under the quilt. He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xuanzhu calmly, "Brother Xuanzhu, it's not my fault for trespassing. You can ask Nianci when she wakes up."
Xiao Mian picked off the spider silk on his body, used the cleaning technique to tidy up the mess on his body, and soon he was back to normal. He bowed to Xuan Zhu respectfully and said, "I have only come to the Cangsheng Courtyard these few days to test the medicine for Nian Ci."
"Don't call her Nianci so affectionately. Junior Sister is a disciple of my Cangsheng Academy. When did she get so close to disciples of your Tianxu Academy?" Xuanzhu didn't buy Xiao Mian's tricks and said directly, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Junior Sister is devoted to Taoism and is easy to deceive, but with me here, you can't try to deceive her."
Xuan Zhu walked to the side of Xiao Mian, circled around him, reached out and grabbed Xiao Mian's wrist, and used spiritual power to forcefully penetrate and observe his... Yuan Yang.
Xiao Mian reacted very quickly and used his spiritual power to resist and expel Xuan Zhu's spiritual power. However, he did not expect Xuan Zhu to be so simple and brutal, so he was able to see what he wanted to know.
Xuan Zhu slowly raised his lips and smiled: "I knew it, he would be so diligent and willing to test medicine on others. He became a medicine man for two reasons. One is to make progress in cultivation, and the other is to seek sex."
"First, few people can persist, unless they are forced to do so. Even the short-term effect is not as fast as practicing in seclusion. Second, few people can persist either. After all, it is just a lustful appearance. Once you get it, you don't know how to cherish it."
Xiao Mian still has Yuan Yang now, so the second one must have not been obtained yet, so he is particularly eager.
Xuan Zhu stood opposite Xiao Mian. The two men were of similar height. Xuan Zhu's sharp eyes, slightly raised, stared at Xiao Mian's eyes that were like the reflection of the cold moon.
"No matter how pure your eyes appear, they can't hide your dirty thoughts. If I tell my junior sister what your intentions were when you approached her, will she still care about you?" Xuan Zhu's smile really looked like that of a demon.
He spoke to Xiao Mian in the manner of an elder brother. Xiao Mian didn't want to pay attention to him, but when he thought of Leng Mushi once saying that she liked Xuan Zhu's type, Xiao Mian's heart couldn't help but waver under Xuan Zhu's gaze.
If it was because of love... and Xuanzhu was chosen because he was her senior brother, then Leng Mushi would definitely listen to Xuanzhu very much. Xiao Mian's fingers hanging by his side gradually curled up. He had just gotten closer to Leng Mushi, and Leng Mushi had just gotten used to his presence. He absolutely could not let Xuanzhu, this bamboo shoot thing, destroy it.
So Xiao Mian pursed his lips and said, "Leng Mushi and I are just friends. Could it be that Senior Brother Xuanzhu is going to restrict the normal interactions between elders and disciples?"
Xiao Mian said, "Besides, I personally brought her back to the mountain a few months ago. She saved my life, so why can't I just repay her? Senior Brother Xuanzhu, why do you have to think so badly about everything?"
Xiao Mian spoke righteously and lowered his eyes slightly. His appearance was definitely more solemn, upright and selfless than those masters who were detached from the world and had no desire to seek happiness.
Xuan Zhu burst out laughing when he heard this, and patted Xiao Mian on the shoulder, "You lied without blinking, I wonder if your master, Tianxuzi, knows that his proud disciple has such a talent."
"For saving my life?" Xuan Zhu hugged his arms and looked straight at Xiao Mian. Through Xiao Mian's cold eyes, he pierced through his disguise and saw through his heart.
"I'm afraid you want to marry me to me. Stop it. You're just playing these tricks I've used before," Xuan Zhu said, taking out a small bottle from the storage bag at his side, opened the lid and weighed it in his hand.
"This is a good thing I just got in the mortal world when I returned to the mountain," Xuan Zhu said to Xiao Mian with a hint of coercion, "Let me use this thing to leave a mark on you, and you can continue to be a medicine man for my junior sister. I will never interfere with your relationship."
Xiao Mian looked at the small bottle in Xuan Zhu's hand, frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said, "What is this?"
When he spoke, it was basically a compromise, which meant he agreed to Xuan Zhu's request.
After all, he really had nowhere to hide in front of Xuanzhu, this harmful thing. Xuanzhu was born in Xueyou Mountain and was born from the broken Yingtian Mirror. Therefore, he could even know the thoughts of people with lower cultivation than him without searching their souls.
Xuan Zhu did not laugh wantonly this time, but tried his best to suppress his laughter. He pretended to be indifferent and put the small bottle in front of Xiao Mian and handed it to him to see, "Interesting stuff, um...similar to the toad sand that women of mortal emperors must apply."
Xiao Mian's face changed slightly when he heard that. Xuan Zhu continued, "Don't be nervous. Although this thing is similar to the mortal's toad sand, it actually... has a completely different effect from that one!"
Xuanzhu's evil taste was aroused, and he clapped his hands excitedly, "On my way back to the mountain, I passed by a place where an evil spirit was doing evil in the mortal world. When I was trying to get rid of the evil spirit, I found that the evil spirit was actually a giant lizard as big as three people."
"Hmm... it's almost the same as the bone-crushing lizard in Cangshengyuan," Xuanzhu said, "This giant lizard lives in that area and feeds on human blood, human flesh and red sand. Its entire body is blood red, especially its tail. It also demands that the villagers sacrifice young boys and girls to continue its offspring. It eats both meat and vegetables, regardless of gender. It's really very obscene!"
Xuanzhu said: "I fought it for three days and three nights. It had already transformed half of its body into a human, but it was so ugly that the people being sacrificed were frightened to death by it, and it failed. After I killed it, I cut off its tail and hung it with a rope. I finally caught this small bottle."
The more Xiao Mian listened, the tighter his brows furrowed. Even he had never heard of such obscene things.
He took a step back, and Xuanzhu took another step forward, handed the small bottle to Xiao Mian, and said to him with a gloomy face: "This thing is similar to the gongsha used by women in the palace. When it falls on a person's body, it will form a mark, and the mark will disappear after having sex with someone."
"But it is completely different from the toad sand that imprisons a woman's chastity. I added some medicinal powder to it that will make you feel like you are on fire if you indulge in lust."
Xiao Mian took a deep breath, and Xuan Zhu said, "As long as you agree to let me touch you, you can get along with my sister in a friendly way and repay your life-saving grace. But if you dare to lust after her or do something inappropriate to her, your meridians will be burned to death."
Xuan Zhu tilted his head slightly as Xiao Mian's face turned pale: "How about it, Junior Brother Xiao, let me seal it, the door of Cangsheng Academy is open to you."
Xiao Mian pursed his lips and said nothing, but looked at Xuan Zhu with a crazy expression. Xuan Zhu snorted, "You sound righteous, but you are still a bad person. Don't use your dirty thoughts on my junior sister. There are many women in Taichu Sect who like you. There are many who are willing to fall in love with you and live together with you. Don't block my junior sister's way."
Xuanzhu pointed to the door and because of his big movement, his sleeve moved up a little, revealing a small red mark on his wrist.
After Xiao Mian noticed it with his sharp eyes, he narrowed his eyes slightly. The next moment, he raised his wrist and presented it to Xuan Zhu: "Come on, Senior Brother Xuan Zhu, I am willing to make this mark."
He hadn't intended to develop an intimate relationship with Leng Mushi so quickly, he just wanted to fall in love with her step by step, but he was in his prime and had no physical problems, so it was normal for him to have some erotic dreams and think about all sorts of things, and he couldn't control himself...
That's fine. This would reassure Xuan Zhu and prove to himself that he is not that kind of dirty person. It would also allow him to continue to interact with Leng Mushi. It would be a win-win situation. Why not do it
Originally, he was afraid that Xuan Zhu would cheat him, and that this mark had some other evil purpose. After all, Xuan Zhu was notoriously evil.
She was born in a pure place like Xueyou Mountain, and her body is a plant like Xuanzhu, which is very proud and upright, but for some reason her temperament is so twisted...
But it doesn't matter. Xiao Mian looked at Xuan Zhu and raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, then slowly curled his lips and smiled at him, which was really kind.
Xuanzhu had already applied the toad sand himself, Xiao Mian was originally afraid that Xuanzhu would compete with him for Leng Mushi. But he had put the rope around himself, so what was he afraid of
Come on.
Xuan Zhu originally thought that Xiao Mian would not agree. Although this method was almost harmless, it was extremely insulting.
Xiao Mian really raised his wrist in front of him. Xuan Zhu stared at him for a moment, and then smiled. But the next moment, he slapped Xiao Mian's hand away, pulled open his collar, and pressed the mouth of the small bottle under Xiao Mian's collarbone.
"Hiss!" Xiao Mian shrank back, Xuan Zhu had already taken the small bottle back.
Xiao Mian saw something retracting into the small bottle. He had just been pricked and it hurt a lot.
"What is it?" Xiao Mian lowered his head and looked at the place where he was stabbed. The blush first only appeared a little bit from under the skin, and soon it became redder and redder.
In the end, the pain disappeared, and there was a small bright red dot on the wound that was not pierced, like a drop of blood falling on the skin.
Xiao Mian straightened his collar. Now that things had come to this, he was too lazy to care why Xuan Zhu had put the mark here.
Anyway, what he had was exactly the same as what Xuanzhu had. If he couldn't move, then neither could Xuanzhu. Xiao Mian still didn't believe it. Could it be that Xuanzhu was certain that he would never meet a girl he liked in this life
Since they were hurting each other anyway, Xiao Mian thought it was fair.
After finishing this, Xuan Zhu's hostility towards him also obviously decreased. He turned around and ignored him without interest. He just went down to the cellar and said, "You two have been sleeping for two days. People outside are looking for you like crazy. If you don't go out, the old man from Tianxuyuan will probably come out to look for you himself..."
Xuanzhu went down to the cellar, and Xiao Mian walked to the bed and looked at Leng Mushi.
She was sleeping very soundly and looked much better. Xiao Mian originally felt a little guilty because he was the one who caused them to fall asleep, but now seeing Leng Mushi's expression, he thought it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to let her rest.
Xiao Mian pulled the quilt for her and felt a slight pain in his heart. He frowned, reached out and pressed it, and the pain disappeared.
Without staying too long, Xiao Mian left Cangsheng Academy and returned to Tianxu Academy. His senior brothers were indeed looking for him anxiously, so Xiao Mian explained.
He did not say that he had been in Cangshengyuan all the time, but that he happened to go to a secret place on the edge of a cliff, and saw a group of beasts chasing and hunting at sunset. He felt something in his heart for a moment, so he closed his five senses and practiced on the spot, and forgot the time for a moment.
What he said was well-reasoned, and the location of the cliff he mentioned was indeed behind Cangsheng Courtyard. It even explained why his senior brothers had used the life-binding belt to sense that he was in Cangsheng Courtyard.
Xiao Mian deceived his fellow brothers without changing his expression, and met Tianxuzi again. His martial arts skills had indeed improved, and Tianxuzi believed it easily, so the matter was let go.
Apart from the fact that the day he and Leng Mushi had to sweep the stone steps was extended due to their two days of slackness, there was almost no other impact.
The next day, when Xiao Mian was sweeping the stone steps with a broom, he couldn't help but think with amusement that this behavior of his showed that he was also the kind of person who draws red when he is around red people, and that he was corrupted by the kind of person who draws black when he is around black people. He had learned Leng Mushi's cunning and was fooling everyone around him.
Xiao Mian always found many of Leng Mushi's traits, which could not be considered advantages, cute. He felt that he was like her and imitated her, and he was closer to being in tune with her.
The young man's emotions were like an avalanche on the Snowy Mountain. At first, it was just a gentle sliding of snowflakes, but soon, it came down like a tsunami, covering the sky and the earth. It was like the immortal in pure white clothes in heaven, bending down on the top of the mountain to hug all living and dead things indiscriminately and hide them in his arms.
While Xiao Mian was here, the mountains were collapsing and the earth was breaking, and Leng Mushi woke up but didn't remember him at all.
She and Xuanzhu went into the cellar and carefully analyzed and described the alchemy she had glimpsed in the past few days, as well as the new elixir she had developed, and the elixir that had already shown signs of success and was about to be tried.
If there is anyone in this world who can be absolutely trusted, in Leng Mushi's opinion it is her master Hua Yanyue, whom she still calls Master Xuanzhu.
"Master, please help me check my pulse. I have been feeling that my gold spiritual root is not very active recently. Gold spiritual root is rarely used in alchemy. It is only used in refining tools. I want to refine an alchemy furnace that is easy for me to use..."
Leng Mushi said this as she stretched out her hand towards Xuanzhu, revealing her fair and tender wrist.
Xuan Zhu was flipping through Leng Mushi's notes, shocked at her changes in just two months, and also shocked that she had already glimpsed the extraordinary power of alchemy so early.
Seeing that it was getting dark, the two of them stayed in the cellar for a whole day. Xuan Zhu kept listening to Leng Mushi calling him Master. He corrected him several times, saying he was Senior Brother, but Leng Mushi seemed not to hear him.
So Xuanzhu grabbed Leng Mushi's wrist and tapped her head with the note in his other hand, "I've said it many times, I'm your Senior Brother Xuanzhu."
Xuan Zhu said again solemnly: "If Master hears you calling me like that, he will be upset."
Leng Mushi curled her lips helplessly. She had long suspected that her master Hua Yanyue had gone mad while refining pills, and that he often turned himself into his eldest disciple who had already left.
Leng Mushi would cooperate with her in acting when she was happy, but now it was time to talk about business. This old guy was addicted to acting and it had been going on for the entire day.
So Leng Mushi said with a sad face: "Master, I have something serious to tell you. Don't play anymore. When I'm in a good mood tomorrow, I will play the game with you. You said that you are old and really miss the senior brother. Why don't you just lower your head and find him back..."
Xuan Zhu's mouth twitched slightly, but he soon smiled, his eyes sparkling, and the evil spirit was suppressed by the clarity in his eyes, "Did you say that Master said she missed me?!"
Leng Mushi had a look of despair on her face, and finally said, "You are hopeless."
She simply turned around and left, "I'll go find Xiao Mian to check for me..."
Xuan Zhu held Leng Mushi's wrist tightly, and his smile became wicked again, "Don't look for Xiao Mian anymore, he is already a useless man." He couldn't be lustful, otherwise the blood in his body would be like a raging fire, and he couldn't be too emotional, otherwise it would hurt like a knife piercing his heart, so that he wouldn't do anything bad to his junior sister.
Wouldn't that be useless? His uterus blood is imprinted on his heart meridian.
"Hmm?" Leng Mushi thought about how she saw Hua Yanyue transformed into Xuanzhu in the cellar when she woke up, so she suddenly remembered something and asked anxiously, "Master, did you beat him again?!"
"The meridians he tore by you last time haven't healed yet. This time I asked him to come to Cangshengyuan," Leng Mushi explained. "We have already made peace and each has what he needs. Love and affection will only affect my Tao. Don't beat him in the future. Wouldn't it be better to let him be our medicine man?"
After Leng Mushi finished speaking, Xuanzhu's expression changed several times, and finally stopped at a somewhat lonely expression, "You really are... the same as Master."
They are all crazy and cannot be shaken by love.
Xuanzhu felt sorry for himself for a moment, and then said, "I didn't hit him, and you don't need to worry about his meridians. When I came back, I saw you sleeping on the ground hugging each other, he was protecting you, and the spider silk bound you together."
Xuan Zhu said: "I saw him steal the magic spider silk when he left."
In fact, it was not stolen. It was just that it was hanging on Xiao Mian's head and was not taken off completely. He went back and found that it had indeed been used.
Leng Mushi breathed a sigh of relief, "He didn't even want it when I gave it to him, how could he steal it, Master... I won't make trouble with you anymore."
Xuan Zhu was completely helpless, and grabbed Leng Mushi and said, "Don't leave. You have always refused to believe that I am your senior brother. This time, feel it carefully, and don't say that I deceived you again."
He tapped Leng Mushi's head, and then suddenly penetrated into Leng Mushi's meridians with pure wood spiritual power.
Hua Yanyue has a fire spiritual root. Every time she transfers spiritual power to Leng Mushi or checks her meridians, she feels warm and comfortable. Of course, it sometimes feels burning and unbearable, unlike Xiao Mian's water spiritual root which is cool and refreshing.
However, the wood spiritual power of the wood spiritual roots is different. Leng Mushi himself also has wood spiritual roots, but they are very weak.
The wood spirit roots of Xuanzhu were quite thick and broad. When they suddenly entered the meridians, it was like a spring of life flowing into the internal organs. Wherever it passed, all of Shen Ke's hidden injuries were healed.
Leng Mushi's eyes widened in shock. A person with a fire spiritual root would definitely not be able to unleash the spiritual power of a wood spiritual root. Hua Yanyue only had a fire spiritual root...
Leng Mushi was stunned. After Xuanzhu checked her meridians, he took back his spiritual power and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that you don't use it much, causing your gold spiritual root to be a little weak."
Xuan Zhu couldn't help but ask, "How did you suppress the other spiritual roots in your body to make medicine? With such rapid progress in cultivation, if your spiritual roots can be used and transformed at will in the future, it will be a terrifying ability. You can feel it yourself."
Xuan Zhu said, "Junior sister, this is a matter of great importance. My master and I only got a glimpse of the infinite art of alchemy several decades ago. With my master's level of cultivation, she would not dare to let the Taichu Sect know what research she is doing. You must not tell anyone else, lest it spread and bring about a fatal disaster."
There are thousands of ways in this world, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. If there is really a way that can unify all the ways, it has never been discovered, and the opportunity to practice this way has even been found...
Xuan Zhu thought about his and his master's current situation. If anyone were to learn about it, this world and the cultivation world would be in chaos.
Leng Mushi nodded, "Don't worry, I have never mentioned it to anyone. As for the method of suppressing other spiritual roots when refining medicine, I just stumbled upon it by accident and haven't figured it out yet."
She couldn't say that the law helped her, so she could only say this.
Xuan Zhu nodded, and Leng Mushi breathed a sigh of relief. The ability to suppress must be extremely powerful. She couldn't tell Xuan Zhu that it was the rules of the storybook that helped her, but her worry that Xuan Zhu would be unhappy because she didn't say anything did not exist at all.
He didn't seem to care much... Leng Mushi sighed in her heart again. The shameless kneeling in the Jisheng Hall that day really made her the best master in the world.
Just, "... Senior... Senior Brother?"
Once Leng Mushi accepted the fact that Xuan Zhu was Xuan Zhu and Hua Yanyue was Hua Yanyue, she suddenly felt unwell.
But this made many things unclear. She certainly couldn't imagine that Hua Yanyue and Xuanzhu were two souls in one body. She thought Xuanzhu had returned from his escape, so she smiled and said to Xuanzhu, "Then welcome back, Senior Brother! Master really misses you, and she often transforms into you!"
Xuan Zhu curled his lips slightly, "You have a small red mole on the sole of your foot, and you like to kick people when you sleep. The first batch of pills is smelly, like shit."
Leng Mushi was stunned, but soon figured it out, "You met Master on your way home? Did you come back together?"
It could only be Hua Yanyue who told him, otherwise how could he know this.
But soon, Xuanzhu told her about how she first started trying drugs and was poisoned half to death by Hua Yanyue many times.
The more Leng Mushi listened, the more horrified she became. In the end, she learned that Senior Brother Xuanzhu and her master were in the same body. She even thought of the times when she had taken too many medicines and betrayed her master and ancestors, and had pulled Xuanzhu's hair.
She came out of the Cangsheng Courtyard in a daze and ran straight to the stone steps to find Xiao Mian.
She had to take two handfuls of medicine with him to calm her nerves.
The author has something to say: Xuanzhu: The first man of virtue
Xuanzhu: If you want to have a relationship with my junior sister, you have to apply the gongsha first. I can tell at a glance that you are a slut.
