Like the previous Earth Temple, entering the Immortal Lake Temple also requires tributes, and the tribute required by the Immortal Lake Temple is the Dream Demon's beads. As early as when Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others went to Youlan Cave in Yunwu Mountain, Min Endong bought one from somewhere.
It is said that his beads came from a bracelet once worn by the Dream Demon. His bracelet was cut off by a certain god in a duel, so the beads on it were scattered throughout the demon world. Because the Dream Demon's beads have the ability to create sweet dreams, they have become the number one target for treasure hunters, and just one of them can be sold for a very high price. Whether in the demon world or the human world, being able to sleep well and have sweet dreams is priceless.
What's more, the dream that the beads can create can be changed according to the dreamer's thoughts. For example, who do you want to meet in your dream tonight, what kind of life do you want to live, what kind of treasure do you want to get... As long as you try hard to imagine before falling asleep, you can experience it in your dream, and this dream will make you feel Like it's really happening. It's just that no matter how beautiful everything in the dream is, it's just a dream. After waking up from the dream, all that's left may be nothing but sadness.
At first, Ouyang Hongye was a little hesitant when he heard that Min Endong had bought the Dream Demon's beads. After all, it was a legendary treasure. Not only had no one around him seen its true appearance, but he couldn't even describe its specific characteristics, so what? Can you tell whether it is true or false
But after Min Endong heard Ouyang Hongye's suspicion, he only had a look of disdain, and even refused to argue with him directly. He just said to him and Dong Muya calmly: "If he doesn't believe it, you can let him take it back and try it for one night. It’s just that I spent a lot of money to buy this bead, so I decided to charge him a certain fee.”
"Okay, you can make a price!" Ouyang Hongye responded angrily. He only remembered that Ouyang Xiaoleng had been an indifferent and somewhat arrogant child since he was a child. But compared to the arrogant boy Min Endong in front of him, Ouyang Xiaoleng was like an angel in his childhood.
"Why are you so angry with a child?! What he said is obviously angry!" Dong Muya smiled and looked at the two people, one big and one small, who were competing with each other and shook his head, lamenting that it was rare for Ouyang Hongye to be so childish. .
"Let's do this. You take the bead back first. If it proves that this bead is indeed the Dream Demon's bead, then we can talk about the price!" Min Endong readily thrust the bead into Ouyang Hongye's hand. This move was surprising. It seems that he is much more mature than him.
"Okay!" Ouyang Hongye looked at the bead over and over in his hand for a long time.
On the surface, it looks no different from beeswax amber, it is also opaque, and like the most precious beeswax from the Baltic Sea, it has beautiful red texture embedded in the beads, especially when it is taken out. When viewed under the lamp, the blood-colored patterns are particularly obvious.
"Just put it under your pillow and think about what you're looking forward to dreaming about before you go to bed!"
Min Endong reminded him and then he was busy checking emails on his tablet computer. Because he had not yet received information on how to enter the Immortal Spring Temple, he guarded the MM terminal system or his own mailbox almost every day. In fact, he didn't have to do this, but he couldn't help but want to do something to make Dong Muya happy. It's like the mentality of a little boy who picked a small flower outside and brought it back to his mother. He hopes to see her knowing smile, because that smile is so beautiful.
Dong Muya wanted to ask Ouyang Hongye what kind of dream she would like to have, but even if she didn't ask, she could probably guess it in her heart. He will definitely want to meet that person in his dream again, and that person will not be him after all. She lamented that the distance between hearts was really strange. Although the two of them were facing each other, she didn't know how long it would take to reach his heart. In the past, every time she thought about this, she would still feel panic and uneasiness, but now she is calm.
As long as she moves forward step by step, regardless of gains and losses, she will definitely reach his heart, she thought.
Ouyang Hongye brought the beads back to Chenji Palace. Before falling asleep, he repeatedly thought about what kind of dream he wanted to have, but he still couldn't decide. As a result, I couldn't help but smile and shake my head for being like this. I clearly didn't believe in this so-called Dream Demon bead, so why would I hesitate for it now
He paced back and forth in front of the bed, refusing to lie down. Later, he simply walked to the yard to get some air. In the deep purple night sky, you can see countless stars when you look up. Occasionally, you will have the illusion that you can catch them by raising your hand, but in fact, whether in the demon world or the human world, the stars are equally distant and out of reach. Looking down at the nameless flowers outside the corridor, the small yellow flowers exuded a charming fragrance. He suddenly decided what kind of dream he wanted to have at this moment.
Miraculously, he dreamed of what he had expected while resting his head on this Dream Demon bead. Now he had to admit that this was indeed the tribute they were looking for from the Immortal Lake Temple.
After controlling the power of gods and demons that broke out in Ouyang Xiaoleng's body, and also getting information about the exact location of the Immortal Lake Temple from Min Endong. Wangyue and everyone returned to the Demon Realm from Ouyang Ancient House. When they were about to arrive at Chenji Palace, they said goodbye to everyone and went around to Wutong Residence to see the situation of Little Snow Rabbit.
After using the prescription given by Yao Wu Fangqi, Little Snow Rabbit seemed to have returned to normal, but she herself did not know that the toxin called Xu Zhi in her body was still slowly devouring her life. Mochizuki was worried that Little Snow Rabbit would not be able to accept it and would be sad because of it, so she had agreed with Miao Xueyu that she would not tell her the truth for the time being, and only said that the poison in her body was gradually being released.
Before seeing Wang Yue, Little Snow Rabbit heard his footsteps, so he rushed out of the hall, threw himself into Wang Yue's arms, put his arms around his neck, and asked him to pick him up.
"Uncle Wangyue, are you here?"
"Well, let's see you! How are you? You're not feeling well yet, don't run in such a hurry!" Mochizuki couldn't help but feel heartache as she looked at the innocent little snow rabbit.
"Didn't we just meet yesterday? It's okay now, look! You're always worrying!" Little Snow Rabbit pouted and complained pretending to be angry, but in fact he was happy in his heart.
It's just that Mochizuki didn't know that little Snow Rabbit overheard his conversation with Miao Xueyou a few days ago, and also knew that if she couldn't find out what the poison of Xu Zhi was, she would be doomed to die soon. That’s it. The reason why she pretended to know nothing on the surface was because she didn't want to make her mother Miaoxueyou and uncle Mochizuki too sad.
These days, her mother, Miaoxueyu, treats her much more gently than ever before. Ever since she can remember, she seems to have been afraid to act coquettishly with Miaoxueyu, because she is always so stern, and the most common thing she says is, "No, Can't, must...
But since she fell ill, she always saw her mother crying secretly. She used to think that her mother was a very strong person. Even when she mentioned her deceased father Tingyue, she always had a cold face, which was difficult to understand. I saw that she was worried about something, but she seemed to be a different person recently.
She was even a little grateful to the person who poisoned her. If she hadn't been poisoned like this, she probably wouldn't have had the chance to see such a gentle mother, nor would she have been able to nestle in her arms, just like she was still a baby, or acting unreasonably. Complaining that the medicine she gave her was too bitter and hot, the porridge she cooked was too thin and light, and the hair she combed wasn't pretty enough.
"You girl, what are you thinking about?" Mochizuki asked, gently tickling her nose with her hand, interrupting her thoughts.
"No... it's nothing. By the way, Uncle Mochizuki, are you and Brother Xiao Leng going to leave again?" Little Snow Rabbit suddenly remembered that it was almost time to say goodbye again, but unfortunately the chances of meeting each other were becoming less and less.
"Probably the day after tomorrow! I will come to see you before departure. If you have nothing to do, you can go to Chenji Palace to play with Xiao Leng and the others!" Mochizuki then remembered that Miao Xueyuan no longer restricted herself. Little Snow Rabbit took action, but she was never seen in Chenji Palace.
"Well, they all have their own busy schedules. I'm afraid that going there will only delay their time!" Little Snow Rabbit really couldn't explain. The reason why he didn't want to see them was because he couldn't bear to say goodbye to them.
"When did our little Snow Rabbit become so sensible!" Mochizuki smiled happily and touched the little Snow Rabbit's head.
In the next day and two nights, Ouyang Xiaoleng's physical changes had already returned to their original state, and relying on the Soothing Soul and Conquering Demons song, his power of gods and demons became freely retractable. Ouyang Yong also agreed to their departure to Xianhequan Township. request.
Before they set off, Ouyang Hongye had already sent a letter to Immortal Yuhe, mainly to ask for his help, but they set off before he could reply.
The journey to Xianhe Spring Township was unexpectedly smooth. When they arrived at their destination, Yuhe Immortal had already been waiting on the shore of the lake for a long time. From a distance, Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others saw him surrounded by cranes. He is tall and slender, still dressed in white, and his overly fair skin contrasts with the red hair ornament on his head, giving him an otherworldly beauty.
"Yu He!" Ouyang Hongye flew down from the demon horse and called with a smile.
"Hongye, Lord Demon King Fox! You arrived earlier than I expected!" As soon as the Yuhe Sage raised his hand, the cranes falling around him flew towards the sky.
"Yes, it was very smooth along the way!" Ouyang Hongye responded to him and turned around to call away his demon horse.
"You said in your letter that you have found a way to enter the Immortal Lake Temple? But you did not explain how to deal with those strange fish in the lake!" Immortal Yuhe asked, and looked around everyone with a smile, but his eyes were on Lingyu's He paused for a moment and frowned slightly, but soon returned to smiling.
"Qianqi learned the art of water control from the Amber Dragon King. This method should be able to stop those strange fish. It's just that when I came here before, I couldn't display my demonic power here. Is there any way to overcome it?" Ouyang Hongye happened to be able to do so. I wanted to ask him this question, so I continued his topic.
"You've asked the right person! What can purify your demonic power is actually the mist that diffuses on the lake and the shore, but if you enter the water, your demonic power can still be used. I will take you to The place where the group of strange fish are most concentrated, I once observed them carefully when flying on the lake, and now my observation finally comes in handy!"
