"No, where can I find one for you? I myself," Leng Mushi quickly refused, "I myself have a crush on a... heartless man."
Fen Lian was unreasonable: "I don't care, you have to find me one anyway. My puppet heard the conversation between the three immortals. If you want to go to Taichu Sect and join the sect, you have to find me a good one in Taichu Sect!"
"But I don't have spiritual roots, so I can't become a disciple. I'm an outer disciple at most. You can just find a mortal. There's no danger there, and you can play with kings, princes, and generals as you like. How great is that." Leng Mushi tried to persuade.
But Fenlian firmly disagreed: "How can a mortal be worthy of a great demon? Besides, you said that the immortal king of the sect had seven times a night and was very brave!"
"You lied to me, I will kill you now!" Fen Lian grabbed Leng Mushi's neck.
Leng Mushi: …
She rolled her eyes because of the pinching, and her tongue was about to stick out, so she slapped Fenlian's arm wildly.
After Fen Lian let her go, she saw that she was coughing violently. After Leng Mushi finished coughing, she said, "If you agree, I will restore your face."
"I am the Painted Skin Demon. I can transform you into any appearance as long as you obey me."
Leng Mushi pressed her neck and took deep breaths madly, thinking that she had really misunderstood. A demon is a demon, no matter how innocent it looks, it is very bad!
She wasn't actually very excited about Fenlian's proposal to restore her appearance. Although she cared about her appearance, she still had to go through important plots with this face, and there would be a chance to restore her appearance later in the plot. She wasn't in a hurry to find a man, so she didn't care.
But if she didn't agree to Fenlian, Fenlian might really kill her. Leng Mushi saw that she had no hope of help, so she had to save herself.
It would be better to bring her into Taichu Sect first, and then find an opportunity to expose her. By then, there will be so many elders in the sect, and they will always be able to deal with her!
So Leng Mushi agreed: "Okay, I promise you, but you have to hide yourself. If you expose me, I will be implicated by you!"
"I have my own way!" Fen Lian said, scratching the palm of her hand with her fingernails, and approaching Leng Mushi with the blood on her hand.
Leng Mushi was corroded by the blood and stepped back in fear. Fen Lian held her down and said, "It doesn't hurt! I'll heal you. Your rescuers are here. Let's get out of here quickly!"
Leng Mushi felt very complicated emotions and let Fenlian treat her. The wounds on her hands and face stained with Fenlian's blood soon recovered as before, and even became more tender.
But when there was only a little bit left on her face, Fen Lian smiled and said, "I have to leave some. I can't cure you all. When you find the Immortal Lord Yong Meng for me, I will cure you all!"
Leng Mushi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She didn't care, but the next moment, the pink lotus suddenly turned into a ray of blood light and "swooshed" into the wound on Leng Mushi's face that had not yet healed.
Leng Mushi screamed in pain and then passed out.
She really felt that she might not be able to finish the story and regain her freedom as the law said. Because the story had just begun, she had fainted several times.
When she regained consciousness, she did not open her eyes immediately. She felt something soft beneath her and something light and soft covering her body. It seemed that she was in a very safe environment.
She raised her hand to touch her face and found that it no longer hurt, but it was bumpy and the wound seemed to have scabbed over. The pink lotus fruit really left a spot that was not treated, and there was still medicine foam on the surface.
Her last memory was the wound left on her face by the Painted Skin demon Fenlian.
Leng Mushi opened her eyes and found that this was an unfamiliar house. Judging from the layout and furnishings, it seemed to be an inn.
She had a traumatic experience with the inn, and she tried to stand up, propped up by her arms, when she heard someone speak.
"Sister, you're awake!"
"I hid it well!"
"How are you?"
Three voices appeared at the same time, making Leng Mushi's head buzz.
Her waist softened and she fell backwards again, but was caught by someone who ran over.
The person who supported her was none other than her good sister Leng Tianyin, and one of the three voices came from her.
As for the other two, Leng Mushi distinguished them. One came from the law in her personal storage bag, and the other... couldn't be sure where it came from, but she observed Leng Tianyin's reaction and it was obvious that she couldn't hear this noisy voice.
"I hid in your scar, and none of the elders who were traveling with me noticed. I think he's a good guy. Can you help me ask him if he has a woman..."
It's pink lotus.
Leng Mushi reached out and slowly touched the scar on her left cheek.
It’s terrible. This big demon is really pestering her and won’t let go. It’s hiding so well that even the elders didn’t notice it
While she was holding her face in a daze, Leng Tianyin was pouring her some water. She sat on the edge of the bed holding the cup, tears sliding down her face and hitting the cup with a "bang".
My sister must be very sad because of the wound on her face.
"Sister... it's all my fault..." Leng Tianyin held the cup with both hands and couldn't help crying.
"I'm sorry," she murmured softly, "I'm sorry..."
Leng Mushi heard the sound of tears falling into the cup, then turned her head to look at Leng Tianyin. As soon as doubts arose, they were dispelled by the law.
You have entered the Tao.
The law says - awaken the five elements and five spiritual roots in advance.
Leng Mushi was stunned, and the words that she wanted to drive Leng Tianyin away got stuck in her throat.
Entered Taoism? In the plot, isn't there no Taoism for her to enter? !
The rules no longer explained it to her. Leng Mushi looked confused and puzzled. She carefully recalled the plot shown to her by the rules. She was sure that when she arrived at Taichu Sect, she was just an outer sect disciple sweeping the floor. How could she suddenly awaken the five elements and five spiritual roots
The great demon Fenlian was noisy again: "Isn't it good to be a Taoist? No matter what the reason is, stop pretending to be dead and ask the elder who is traveling with you if he has a woman..."
Leng Mushi's head was buzzing and she was a little confused about the current situation. Leng Tianyin was crying non-stop opposite her. She tried to hug her several times, but Leng Mushi held her shoulders down every time.
"Stay away from me." Leng Mushi refused to get close to Leng Tianyin, and did not drink the water she handed to her.
"Sister... are you angry with me? I am useless. I am sorry for letting you risk your life to restrain the big demon for me... wuwuwu..."
Leng Tianyin wiped her face fiercely, rubbing her delicate face red. She raised her hand and swore: "When I arrive at Taichu Sect, I will practice hard. If I encounter such a situation again in the future, I will never leave my sister alone..."
"Sister, drink some water." Leng Tianyin handed the cup to Leng Mushi again.
Leng Mushi looked at her coldly, without any emotion in her heart, and even inexplicably wanted to beat her up.
She could act like a lovesick girl to seduce Xiao Mian as the rules said, but she really couldn't act out the deep sisterly love.
She was not destined to have sisters, otherwise how could she have become a motherless child.
She knew that Leng Tianyin shouldn't be blamed. The child was innocent, and what did she know
But her existence makes Leng Mushi trapped in the past all the time, the day when she lost her mother.
It was snowing heavily, but her father held Leng Tianyin and played horse riding with her in the snow. He let the cute Leng Tianyin ride on his neck, while Leng Mushi knelt in the snow, her little hands and face turned blue from the cold, just to ask her father, the unfaithful man, to see her seriously ill mother for the last time.
Leng Tianyin's mother stood in the corridor and looked at her with a smile, like a winner who didn't need to show off.
Leng Mushi only recalled it briefly, and it seemed as if she could still smell the cold and silent snow that day, and the bone-chilling coldness with every breath.
However, Leng Mushi soon felt a headache due to the noise in her head. She couldn't think of those messy things anymore. Her laws and the Painted Skin Demon that was parasitic in her body started to quarrel for some reason.
"Enough!" Leng Mushi growled.
Leng Tianyin shuddered, thinking that Leng Mushi was talking about her, but she still stubbornly held the cup of water in her hand and did not move away. She stared at Leng Mushi in a daze, tears falling madly and silently.
"Don't cry, I'm not dead." With her mind clear, Leng Mushi said to Leng Tianyin with a sullen face, "I don't want to drink your snot-filled water, get out of here!"
Leng Mushi pushed her aside. Leng Tianyin looked into the water cup she was holding and found no foreign objects. However, thinking about her tears and snot just now, she thought that maybe something had really fallen in there, so she stepped back with a slightly red face.
Leng Mushi had slept too long. She stood up slowly and walked to the table. She picked up the kettle on the table, tilted her neck back and started drinking it.
There was a knock on the door, but the door was only ajar and not closed, so it was knocked open directly - the person standing outside the door with his hand raised was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the unruly image of Leng Mushi, with disheveled clothes, standing barefoot on the ground, and tilting his neck to drink water.
Xiao Mian, whose clothes were neat and tidy, and whose hair was not out of place, had his eyelashes flickering. He opened his mouth slightly when he saw her like this, and then his eyes lit up silently. He turned sideways and said respectfully to the Sixth Elder of Taichu Sect, Immortal Master Qu Yang, who was standing behind him: "Immortal Master, Miss Leng has woken up."
Leng Mushi's mind suddenly rang with the voice of Fen Lian: "It's that elder. Oh my, he's so good-looking. His legs are so long and his waist looks so strong! I wonder if his penis is big."
Leng Mushi almost spit out a mouthful of water, and barely suppressed her frustrated expression. If this elder could hear what Fen Lian said, he would probably beat her to death as well.
Poor girl, she was an unmarried girl. She was so affected that she couldn't help but glance at the elder's lower body at the door. Her brain was about to smoke.
Leng Mushi put down the kettle and wiped her mouth casually. She didn't know any of the elders of Taichu Sect, but if she wanted to join Taichu Sect, it was right to be respectful to these old guys.
She hastily straightened her appearance and turned her head to look at Leng Tianyin, but saw that she had already bowed properly and there was no trace of the disease on her face, as if the person in the Water Curtain Cave with snot and tears just now was not her.
She is indeed the heroine.
Leng Mushi bowed to Elder Qu Yang. He walked in slowly, his footsteps so light that they were barely audible. In a flash, he was already at the table and sat down.
Xiao Mian and his two senior brothers also followed behind him. They stood still, and the younger senior brother introduced Leng Mushi and Leng Tianyin, "This is the sixth elder of the sect, Immortal Master Qu Yang."
Leng Mushi had already blown the teapot on the table, so she could no longer pour tea for the elder. Leng Mushi bowed her head and called out, "Greetings, Immortal Venerable."
Leng Tianyin also followed Leng Mushi and greeted him in a low voice.
"The immortal sect does not practice ordinary etiquette, so there is no need to do this," the Immortal Venerable Qu Yang spoke. His voice was not old, but it did not match his handsome appearance of about thirty years old. It was much heavier, like a sack pressing on a person, causing Leng Mushi, who had just climbed out of the bed, to bend her legs weakly.
But she thought about what the immortal said about not following ordinary rituals, so she gritted her teeth and endured it. However, Leng Tianyin behind her could not bear the pressure and fell to her knees.
Leng Mushi: Oh, this scheming bastard, this slug-like spineless bastard, actually kneels down neatly!
She didn't kneel, but stood there with her neck stiff, not saying a word. Xiao Mian and his two senior brothers were so anxious that they wanted to press Leng Mushi down!
How can you be so tactless!
It's terrible. They all knew that the Sixth Elder wanted to accept a disciple. It was because Leng Mushi had cleverly deceived the big monster before that they escaped and sought reinforcements from the Immortal Master Qu Yang who happened to be wandering nearby. Only then did they rescue Leng Mushi. The Immortal Master Qu Yang had originally admired Leng Mushi very much in his words, but she didn't kneel at this time.
If she doesn't kneel, even if the Immortal Master Qu Yang wants to accept her as a disciple, he won't be able to bring himself to ask for her help!
Leng Mushi had no idea of this situation. She had just woken up. The Immortal Lord Qu Yang had clearly said that the immortal sect did not observe ordinary etiquette. Especially since she didn't know that Elder Qu Yang's words just now were intimidating, she was able to withstand it and not kneel because by chance she had awakened her spiritual roots and entered the Tao.
Therefore, her "tenacity" made Immortal Master Qu Yang raise an eyebrow. He had his eyes on Leng Mushi and wanted to accept her as his disciple. Seeing that she refused to kneel, he naturally did not want to force her, so he raised his hand and used his spiritual power to help Leng Tianyin up behind Leng Mushi.
Leng Tianyin felt light and even after she stood up, she still felt magical. She naturally thanked Immortal Master Qu Yang again, which made Immortal Master Qu Yang look at her a little more.
"You are not seriously injured, and you have gained and lost something. Although your five spiritual roots are not pure enough, they are still rare. People who practice Taoism pay more attention to the heart of Tao." Immortal Master Qu Yang said gently to Leng Mushi, "Adhere to your heart of Tao at this moment, Taichu Gate is your home."
This was a compliment to her. After all, she had saved three disciples of the Taichu Sect. Leng Mushi bowed slightly again: "Thank you for your guidance, Immortal Venerable."
Immortal Master Qu Yang failed to recruit his young disciple, and he got up with great regret. This place was at the foot of Taichu Mountain, and it would take another day to enter Taichu Sect. He no longer needed to accompany them, so he prepared to leave.
The three Immortal Lords, including Xiao Mian, were almost driven to death by Leng Mushi's stupid mind, but since Immortal Lord Qu Yang was present, they couldn't say anything, so they could only look at her with disappointment.
Leng Mushi noticed Xiao Mian's expression, which looked like he wanted to go to the bathroom but couldn't. She rolled her eyes in confusion and respectfully bid farewell to Immortal Master Qu Yang.
Seeing that the Immortal Master Qu Yang was about to leave, the great demon Fen Lian was not happy. She had already determined that Leng Mushi had promised to find a good man for her, and she fell in love with this man, so she started to make trouble in Leng Mushi's mind, and the laws started to quarrel with her again.
Leng Mushi's knees were weakened by the noise. Fazhi was a man of few words, never talked nonsense, and had a calm male voice that sounded very steady and pleasant.
But for some reason, Fa Lu and Fen Lian were like two icy fish and fire. They had been bickering with each other ever since they discovered each other's existence. At this moment, Fa Lu even opened his throat and cursed, "What are you talking about? You are a thin-skinned monster with no substance. No man would like to flatten you!"
Leng Mushi was going crazy because of these two things, and she held her head and shook it in place.
Leng Tianyin quickly supported her, but the pink lotus in her mind was about to explode: "What does this have to do with an ugly stone like you? She promised to find a man for me! If she doesn't, I will kill her! If you scold me again, I will kill you too!"
The scab on Leng Mushi's left face began to hurt violently. She reached out to cover it, and blood even flowed from her fingertips. She couldn't help it, so she raised her hand and shouted to the Immortal Master Qu Yang who had just stepped out of the door: "Immortal Master, please stay!"
Immortal Master Qu Yang paused, turned around and looked at her with a smile, his eyes very gentle. He thought that this little girl had finally come to her senses, and looked at her with some expectation.
As a result, Leng Mushi opened his mouth and said, "Excuse me, Immortal Lord, I would like to ask you a question."
She pressed the blood that kept flowing out of her face, smiled, and asked with no desire to live: "May I ask if you have a Taoist partner?"
