In the imperial study, Emperor Jinghong and his confidant ministers began to draft the event of "immortals coming".
"God is grateful for His Majesty's kindness and virtue. In order to ensure the peace of the world, His Majesty sent Princess Pingning to serve the immortals..."
The wind picked up suddenly, making the windows rattle. The prime minister, who was planning to praise His Majesty in the book to the world and undermine Princess Pingning's achievements, shook his shoulders, pinched his beard that was swaying from side to side by the wind, and changed his words: "The immortal sees that Princess Pingning has a pure face and wears an immortal body. Fate, His Highness Du Pingning is a fairy. His Highness Pingning is taller than the emperor's knees, and his face is like a golden and jade girl. The emperor loves her very much. Today, the blessing is deep, and His Majesty is very pleased with it. He specially established the Pingning Fairy Temple to pray for His Highness Pingning. Praying for the family, the country and the world…”
The wind stopped immediately, and there was no trace of it except for the windows that were blown open.
The monarchs and ministers in the house secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Emperor Jinghong coughed dryly: "I ordered the Ministry of Industry to repair the tombs of the emperors and queens of the previous dynasty. It is considered that I helped Princess Pingning to complete their blood relationship."
"Your Majesty is kind."
Jing Hong smiled, but sighed inside. What can he do, he is afraid that he is not doing enough, and God will punish him and bring harm to the country and society. That's all, a man can bend and stretch, and an emperor who wants to save face is not a good monarch.
Anyway, after thousands of years, who still knows whether he and Princess Pingning have father-daughter relationship
At this moment, Konghou didn't know that Emperor Jinghong, who used to be so high and even made her a little scared, was racking his brains to get in touch with her. She leaned on Wangtong's shoulders obediently and secretly looked down, but it was a pity that it was pitch black, what? can't see.
Suddenly, she saw a silver gate opened not far away, could it be the gate of the fairy palace
Wangtong looked down at the quiet little girl in his arms, and tightened the cloak on her body: "Crossing this door, we are Lingyoujie."
The moment he passed through the silver gate, Konghou felt his body drift for a moment, and when he opened his eyes again, the silver gate had disappeared, the waning moon hung in the sky, and the stars were extraordinarily bright. The night wind blew across her cheeks, with a bit of coolness, but not cold.
What surprised her most was the fact that there was a carriage in the sky. The red lanterns hung on the carriage, and the bells were so sweet. Konghou couldn't help but look at it a few more times. The carriage disappeared quickly. She looked to the left in disappointment. Several people were floating in the air. Some of them stepped on swords, some stepped on strange weapons, and some even stepped on... Dustpan and hoe
The middle-aged man stepping on the dustpan noticed Konghou's gaze, and immediately squeezed over with a smile: "Fellow Daoist, this is taking the junior to play in the mortal world, this year is a rare New Year's Eve year, so I bought it for the junior. A box of dim sum to go back and try it?" He finished speaking, and took out a wooden box from his body, which was full of dim sum, and the amazing thing was that these dim sum would sparkle and look like stars in the sky.
Wangtong looked down at Konghou, who was full of curiosity, and hesitated for a moment: "How much?"
"One box of three spirit stones, two boxes of five spirit stones."
Wangtong stared at the dim sum in the middle-aged man's hand for a long time, then shook his head and said, "No need." After speaking, he ignored the call of the middle-aged man and flew away with a Konghou in his arms. When he could no longer see the middle-aged man, Wang Tongcai landed on the ground, let go of Konghou from his arms, held her hand and said, "The things outside are not clean, you have no cultivation level now, eating it is not good for your body. it is good."
"Yeah." Konghou nodded his head firmly, believing in the immortal's words. She raised her head and looked forward. There was a tall city gate in front of her. The city gate was engraved with the word Yongcheng. These two words exuded a dazzling light in the night.
What surprised Konghou the most was not these two words, but the brightly lit street behind the city gate, and the carriages, boats and people flying in the air.
"Immortal, is this... the place where the immortals live?" Konghou opened his eyes wide and looked up at a beautiful woman in beautiful clothes flying over his head, imagining that one day he would be able to fly like these immortals. go.
Flying is the dream of many children, and Konghou is no exception.
"There are no immortals here, this is the Yongcheng of Lingyoujie." Wangtong took Konghou's hand and walked into the tall city gate, letting her truly enter this world.
Pedestrians coming and going, bright candles, this place looks like the most prosperous capital, but those carriages and boats that can fly in the air make Konghou clearly realize that this is not the capital.
"There are ordinary mortals here. They have ordinary aptitude and cannot cultivate. There are also people with special meridians who have set foot on the road of self-cultivation." Wangtong had never brought children, and he didn't know how to get along with them. Seeing that Konghou seemed curious, he So straightforward.
"This is the legendary world of self-cultivation, and I'm not the fairy master you call me, just an ordinary self-cultivator on the road of self-cultivation." Wangtong thought of Konghou and imagined that a fairy would come to pick her up, and he saw her admiringly looking at him. , My heart softened, "I owe you a karma, if you have the aptitude for cultivation, I will accept you as a disciple."
"Can you become an immortal if you can cultivate?" Konghou's eyes were extremely dazzling in the dark night.
No, in the past thousand years in Lingyou Realm, no one has ever ascended to immortality!
"Of course." Wangtong squatted down and touched the little girl's head, "As long as you cultivate seriously and keep your mind right, you will have a chance to soar."
He didn't lie to the children, it was the kind encouragement from the elders.
Nian Zai Konghou had just arrived in the cultivation world, and was curious about everything, so Wangtong walked slowly with Konghou. Konghou saw that some flowers can move without wind, some animals can speak human words, and even parrots that can spit water.
Halfway through, Wangtong noticed that Konghou had taken a few more glances at the chubby rabbit, and said: "This kind of ordinary rabbit is not suitable for pets, if you don't plan to go with the beasts in the future, it is best not to keep pets, it is easy to be distracted. ."
Konghou retracted his gaze, shook his head and said, "I don't keep pets."
Licking the corner of his mouth, this rabbit looks fat and thin, and it should be delicious when grilled. Last year, a concubine in the harem lost her temper and threw a rabbit to death. She wanted to pick it up and bake it to eat. How could she know that the maids and eunuchs moved faster than her, and she didn't even touch a single rabbit fur.
"It's so good." Wangtong patted Konghou's head, refreshed. He, a future closed-door disciple, was very relieved at first glance. The aptitude is not important anymore, the important thing is to be well-behaved.
The appearance of Konghou gave him new expectations for a creature like a child.
But after walking a few steps, he found that Konghou was still staring at the rabbit. After struggling for a while, he rubbed her head and said, "If you find something you really like, go buy it."
The future disciple is still young, and it doesn't matter if she follows her will occasionally. Anyway, rabbits only eat grass and don't spend any rations.
Konghou just shook his head: "No."
"You girl." Wangtong squatted down and looked at Konghou seriously, "Children have the right to be willful. When you grow up, your teacher will not be accustomed to you." He took out two spirit stones and put them in Konghou's hand, "Go."
Holding the two warm green stones in his hand, Konghou shook his head and took the initiative to hold Wangtong's hand: "Master, I don't raise rabbits."
"How about raising a puppy?" Wangtong pointed to the puppy in the cage next to him, "This dog is better-looking than a rabbit." Although a dog costs more food, the little disciple likes it, so just bear with it.
Konghou still shook his head, put the spirit stone back in Wangtong's palm, and pointed to the sign not far away: "Master, let's buy this."
Wangtong turned his head and saw that there was a barbecue stall over there, with the words "Roasted Rabbit Meat Twenty Yu Coins apiece", and the price was only one-fifth of the live rabbit.
It was only then that Wangtong understood that the little apprentice was staring at the rabbit, not because he wanted to keep a pet, but because he wanted to eat meat. He stuffed a spirit stone back into Konghou's hand, and waved boldly, "Go buy it."
Soon Konghou came back with two roasted rabbits, and because she was cute and sweet, the stall owner gave her a roasted chicken wing.
"Master, here it is." Konghou smiled and handed the fatter rabbit and chicken wings to Wangtong. After Wangtong took over the roasted rabbit, he also returned the sixty jade coins that the stall owner gave him.
"It's delicious." The hungry Konghou took a big bite of the rabbit meat, sniffed, and glanced at the chicken wings that Wangtong gave him. "The stall owner is a good person."
"Yeah." Wangtong smiled and didn't tell Konghou that two of the jade coins that the stall owner gave change were fake. He put the jade coin in his pocket, rolled up his sleeves and lowered his head to eat the rabbit meat.
On the New Year's Eve, which is a rare occurrence in a thousand years, Kong Hou, who has just arrived in the cultivation world, finally ate a whole roasted rabbit. She looked up at the beautiful sky and was in a happy mood. The cultivation world was really good.
"This is for you." Wangtong handed the grilled chicken wings to Konghou, "I don't like to eat this."
"Thank you, master." Konghou opened his mouth wide and bit the chicken wing that Wangtong handed over, showing a bright smile on his oil-stained face.
Looking at this smile, I forgot to think, such a good-looking and well-behaved baby, let alone chicken wings, even if she wanted to eat peacock wings and phoenix wings, he tried his best to get it for her.
The only problem is that even if he tried his best... he couldn't get it.
boom.
Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded from the sky, and Konghou was startled. Ignoring the oil in his hand, Wangtong stretched out his hand and embraced Konghou: "Don't be afraid, my good apprentice, this is the fireworks on New Year's Eve."
At this moment, it doesn't matter whether Konghou has the aptitude to cultivate Taoism or not, Wangtong has already called his apprentice.
Konghou looked up and saw many beautiful stars appeared in the sky. These stars danced and jumped in the sky, and finally turned into a star shower and fell from the sky. She reached out to pick it up, only to find that the stars were nothing but light, no substance.
Countless people on the street cheered and cheered.
The stars twinkled for a long time, and Konghou watched for a long time. She has grown so big and has never seen such a beautiful sight. It's just that she didn't understand why the words "Green Water Pavilion" kept flashing in the sky.
"This year's astrological mystery was made by Lushui Pavilion with money. It is worthy of being a famous elixir, such a big deal."
Hearing other people's words, Konghou suddenly realized that people who cultivate immortals, like ordinary people, value their brand name very much.
After receiving the news of Wangtong, when the apprentice who came to pick him up found Wangtong, he saw Hefa Tongyan's master, pulling a little girl squatting on the corner of the street, gnawing on rabbit meat with oily hands, no image at all.
Seeing this scene, the apprentice was very worried. The master had failed through the heart calamity and could not cultivate the Nascent Soul, so the jar was broken
