Reaching to the Sky

Chapter 99: Two silkworms

Views:

After looking at the scenery in front of him, Nanfeng withdrew his gaze and asked, "Where is your master?"

Zhuge Chanjuan stepped forward, "It's right in front."

Not far away, a low shack appeared in front of them. There were simple bedding in the shack, but there was no one inside.

"Where are the people?" Nanfeng asked.

Zhuge Chanjuan raised her head and looked at the sky, "It's the third watch. Master and Master should be near Longtan. Let's not go there and wait here."

"That circular pool is what you call Longtan?" Nanfeng raised his eyes and looked into the distance. Due to the mist lingering around the pool, the scenery looked very blurry.

Zhuge Chanjuan nodded, "That pool is an eye of the sea that leads directly to the East China Sea. In winter, the silkworm will return to the East China Sea through the waterway to spend the winter. In previous years, it has long gone. This year, the master discovered it and soaked it with rice to make it addicted. It’s hard to leave, so I’m stuck here till now.”

Before Nanfeng answered, Zhuge Chanjuan said again, "The colder the weather, the slower the Celestial Silkworm's reaction. Master and Mistress plan to catch it tonight. It is a critical moment right now. Don't make any noise to avoid scaring it away."

Just as Nanfeng was about to answer, Zhuge Chanjuan said again, "If everything goes well, we will leave soon. Li Chaozong is waiting in Chang'an right now. He will make an engagement as soon as we leave the mountain."

Nanfeng originally wanted to ask Li Chaozong how old he was, but Zhuge Chanjuan seemed not to be prepared for his answer at all, and then said, "Li Chaozong has six wives and concubines. I heard that they are all stunningly beautiful people. Although I am not ugly, I am not as beautiful as I am." Compared with those Israeli women who serve people, they are still inferior. Li Chaozong only married me to get married with his master. He did not really like me. You can rest assured that even if he knew that you married me, he would not kill me. You vent your anger."

"He is the least powerful among the people I have offended." Nanfeng said with a smile. Taiqing Yuqing is an orthodox Chinese religion. It is deeply rooted and has far-reaching influence. It is powerful and has many masters. Li Chaozong is just a green forest figure, unlike Taiqing. Yuqing is not on the same level.

"Who have you offended?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked.

Nanfeng did not answer immediately. He was thinking about whether to tell Zhuge Chanjuan about Yuqing and Taiqing. This matter had advantages and disadvantages. The advantage was that it might scare Zhuge Chanjuan away, but the disadvantage was that once he told the truth, he would be exposed. .

After thinking about it, Nanfeng smiled and shook his head. Zhuge Chanjuan had a strong gangster spirit and was not afraid of anything. I was afraid that she would not be scared away.

"Tell me, let me see which sect it is?" Zhuge Chanjuan urged.

"Is your master very powerful?" Nanfeng changed the topic. If he were an ordinary person, Li Chaozong would not have any friendship with him.

Zhuge Chanjuan said with a smile on her face, "My master is the number one sage in Qihuang today. His surname is Wang and his given name is Zhong. He is known as the King of Northern Medicine. Because he is moody and unpredictable in good and evil, he is also called impermanent."

In the past few years, Nanfeng had been practicing in the mountains and rarely involved in the world. He had never heard of this name, so he asked, "Is there another Nanyao King?"

"That is my master's junior brother, but he is not a psychic and is far away from my master." After Zhuge Chanjuan said this, she got into the shack.

Nanfeng turned around and saw Zhuge Chanjuan taking out a blanket. After she came out, she shook it vigorously, causing the dust to fly. "Here, put it on, it's really cold."

Nanfeng frowned and looked at Zhuge Chanjuan. He rarely received care from others, and Zhuge Chanjuan's behavior made him very uncomfortable.

"What are you doing, do you think it's dirty?" Zhuge Chanjuan glared.

Nan Feng hurriedly thanked him, took the blanket and put it on his body.

Zhuge Chanjuan sat down next to Nanfeng and pulled the blanket halfway, "Give me some. By the way, I burned your robe just now. I'll make you a new one when I go out."

Before meeting Zhuge Chanjuan, Nanfeng didn't have many interactions with women. He had never been sitting shoulder to shoulder like this before. Although Zhuge Chanjuan had a strong smell of medicine, she also had a girlish aura. I don't know whether she liked it or was worried, whether she was flustered or worried. The rejection made Nanfeng very nervous.

"Why are you looking at me?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked, tilting her head.

Nan Feng hurriedly withdrew his gaze and looked into the distance, "Did you just say that your master can be a psychic?"

"My master is a part-time underworld official and can travel to and from the underworld. He is very powerful." Zhuge Chanjuan was even more proud.

Nanfeng suddenly realized that there were many differences between people in the Jianghu and Taoist priests, but the biggest difference was that Taoist priests had a vocation and could ask gods to control ghosts, while people in the Jianghu did not have this ability. Wang Zhong was the sage of Qihuang, and his poison and medical skills were actually They are interoperable. He can save people and he can also kill people. In addition, this person works part-time as a shady person, which makes it even more incredible. There will always be a gray area between right and wrong. Whether the gray area is black or white depends entirely on human feelings. Decided to give an example, he should have died at the end of the third watch, but Wang Zhong was excused and died at the end of the third watch. If you offend him and do bad things secretly, you may die at the beginning of the third watch.

"I've also thought about it. It's fate to meet you here." Zhuge Chanjuan looked into the distance. "You appeared in the right place at the right time. You seem to be right for me. It's better to bump into each other than to choose." You, you can rest assured, I will not kill the donkey, and I will ask Master and Master to agree to our marriage when they come back."

"You'd better kill him." Nan Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Zhuge Chanjuan was still in a daze, but her attitude suddenly changed when she heard Nan Feng's words, and she glared angrily, "You are really a donkey. If you don't lead me around, you will fall back. You think I can't get married, right? You don't want to give up either. Soak yourself in urine and take a picture of yourself, you look like a three-inch nail and not as tall as me, do you think you are Lu Bu Panan?"

Nanfeng didn't expect that Zhuge Chanjuan would fall out as soon as he said he would fall out. It may be that Zhuge Chanjuan was very sincere. Although he was ridiculed, he didn't want to be sarcastic. "It's not just three inches, it's dozens of inches. Besides, I'm still young and tall." It will grow longer.”

"Stop talking nonsense to me and just tell me, are you willing?" Zhuge Chanjuan said with a serious face.

"Keep your voice down, your master and wife are still catching the Celestial Silkworms. It's a big deal to scare the Celestial Silkworms away." Nanfeng looked around and talked to him.

"Are you willing?" Zhuge Chanjuan asked with eyes wide open.

"Let me think about it." Nanfeng took the lead and held off.

To be fair, Zhuge Chanjuan is pretty good, good-looking, sincere and generous, and treats him well, but for some reason Nanfeng doesn't have strong feelings for Zhuge Chanjuan. Maybe it's because Zhuge Chanjuan appeared too early and he wasn't ready yet. . It may also be that Zhuge Chanjuan is not his type. It is not appropriate to say that she is not his type, because he has never thought about what kind of wife he wants in the future. Or maybe Zhuge Chanjuan appeared too suddenly, and the relationship between the two moved too fast, and they didn't understand each other yet.

"Hey, have you thought about it?" Zhuge Chanjuan urged.

"Well, you usually..." Nanfeng hesitated. He wanted to sleep with Zhuge Chanjuan the first time he met him. Regardless of Zhuge Chanjuan's motives, it was suspected of being frivolous. He wanted to confirm that Zhuge Chanjuan was usually frivolous. It wasn't so casual, and it stopped mid-sentence. It was because she thought that Zhuge Chanjuan was still a virgin, and if she was usually frivolous and promiscuous, she wouldn't be able to keep her virginity.

"Say it." Zhuge Chanjuan urged again.

"Can you not be so impatient?" Nanfeng sighed helplessly.

"No, say it quickly. If you dare to say that you don't want to, I will poison you immediately." Zhuge Chanjuan threatened.

Nanfeng hated threats and threats. He was still hesitant at first, but this time he made up his mind, "I don't like you being so fierce."

"What did you say? Say it again!" Zhuge Chanjuan raised her voice.

Before Nanfeng could answer, a popping sound suddenly came from the east.

Nanfeng followed the sound and saw a strange movement in the fog above the pool. Due to the fog blocking it, the specific situation could not be seen, but based on the previous sounds, it seemed that something heavy had fallen into the water.

Just as the two of them were looking nervously, another muffled sound came from the pool area. The sound was like a woman hitting a dry quilt with a mallet.

"Old woman, hold on, don't let her escape." The old man's voice said.

"What's so wordy? Take it quickly." The old woman's voice said.

While the two were shouting, a strange snake-like animal appeared in the mist around the pool. This object was naturally the dragon-toothed silkworm. At this time, the head and tail of the silkworm were obscured by the mist, and it was not clear. Seeing the cyan body, this thing looks very much like a silkworm, but it is extremely huge.

That day, the silkworm was eager to escape back to the water pool. She tried several times but was stopped by the old woman. Seeing that she could not enter the water, she had to turn around and flee elsewhere.

"Where did it go?" the old woman's voice said.

"It must have shrank down and hid in the dark. Use the Five Elements Spirit Plate to find it quickly." The one who spoke was naturally the Medicine King Wang Zhong.

After a brief silence, the old woman screamed in the distance, "Why are there two?"

Before Wang Zhong could answer, the old woman shouted again, "Ajuan."

"Master's wife, I'm here." Zhuge Chanjuan responded loudly.

"Are there any Celestial Silkworms around?" the old woman shouted.

Zhuge Chanjuan looked around anxiously, "No."

"Wang Laoer, our son is blessed with a pair of heavenly silkworms." The old woman was overjoyed.

"Catch the one in front of you first." Wang Zhong shouted.

"Three feet to the north." The old woman shouted again.

"Here, come and help." Wang Zhong's voice was full of joy.

"Ajuan, come and guard Longtan." The old woman shouted.

Zhuge Chanjuan agreed, jumped up and went to help.

As soon as Zhuge Chanjuan left, Nanfeng turned around and ran away. The old woman might have something to search for the dragon-toothed silkworm. He had taken the dragon-toothed silkworm. The medicinal properties of the dragon-toothed silkworm would naturally remain in his body. The other party undoubtedly regarded him as a He looked at Tiancan. From the tone of the old woman, it seemed that she wanted to catch the male and the female and give them to her damn son. She had to run away quickly. If she stayed here, she might be beheaded and bled.

The three masters and apprentices were working together to capture the unlucky Dragon-Tooth Celestial Silkworm. The south wind activated their spiritual energy and they ran for their lives. After reaching thirty miles, they gathered their spiritual energy, changed direction, and fled eastward.

Since he didn't know how far the thing called the Five Elements Spirit Plate in the opponent's hand could spy, Nanfeng didn't dare to relax. He ran from the third watch to the fourth watch, and from the fourth watch to the fifth watch. He didn't dare to relax even after dawn. When I reached Chenshi, I couldn't run anymore. There happened to be a cave at the foot of the mountain. I threw a stone into it and saw no movement, so I hid in it and felt relieved...
