Popular Recommendations: The Emperor’s Arrival at Hongmeng Heaven’s Order to Punish Evil
"The old woman became enlightened late, and before she transformed, she heard about Yulong Mountain by chance. But if the True Lord wants to hear it, I have to give the old woman some benefits."
The old woman looks like she is old, but as a demon, she will never offend the Wanshou Empress for nothing, and she will naturally ask for benefits. "The old woman is taking the risk of offending the Empress. The True Lord will not be reluctant to do so, right?"
"If you don't mention the benefits, I won't dare to listen."
Except for magic weapons like the Moon Sword and the Ghost-headed Bell, Chen Yuan really didn't have anything that could be exchanged for others. After thinking about it, he simply took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and spread a pill everywhere in the palm of his hand.
The medicine belongs to the Heavenly Master's Mansion. I have some friendship with the Heavenly Master and gave it to me personally."
"Tianshi Mansion?!"
The demons were all in an uproar, some in disbelief. They were located in the south-central part of the country, and the Taoist priests from the Tianshi Mansion did not come here often, but occasionally they would meet one or two, and they knew that they were really capable people. It was rumored that the Tianshi Mansion was even more powerful.
When he arrived at Yuanying, he was no less generous than the Wanshou Empress. Unexpectedly, this young man had a close friendship with the Heavenly Master.
Also, being conferred the title of True Monarch of the Spiritual Appearance by the human court and being able to enjoy the incense and incense in the temple means that he truly has the status of a god, and it makes sense to have friendship with the Celestial Master of the Celestial Master's Mansion.
At this time, a tiger roar suddenly sounded from the cliff, interrupting everyone's conversation.
Hu Yong, who was listening quietly, was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chen Yuan and raised his hand towards him: "Brother Chen and you are eating and talking, and the queen called me over."
After saying that, he summoned the two demons Youlan and Mei Niang to serve them well, and also called the pheasants who had transformed into human forms and a group of toads: "Keep playing music, keep dancing!"
"Don't neglect the guests."
After giving a few instructions, he clasped his fists again, turned around and walked towards the cliff. Stepping on the protruding rocks, he moved to the forest above the mountain wall. In the middle of the forest, there was a wide gravel road, which extended past the mountain wall.
In front of the cave is an open cave, with carefully cultivated flower beds on both sides of the cave entrance. They have not withered at this time of year, so you can tell that they are nothing special.
Hu Yong did not dare to keep his empress waiting for a long time, and quickly entered the cave in front. The light of the corridor flickered, and his figure walked straight into the open mountain cave. The cold ground under his feet gradually turned into a snow-white blanket, and the stone table
A stone chair was leaning against the cave wall, with wine, melons and fruits on a plate.
In the middle, there is a chair carved out of huge rock, with a huge bear skin spread out, and the Wanshou Empress is sitting on it, holding her face with one hand, her legs crossed, holding up her skirt, and her bare feet are exposed
He came out, swaying on his toes, and looked at Lu Wumu, slightly lost in thought.
But the words still rang out.
"How did you get to know that person outside? You also want to invite him over to the banquet of monsters. It can be seen that you value him quite a lot. Is it really just for friendship?"
The scholar was silent for a moment, knowing that the empress was insinuating Chen Yuan's identity by asking these questions. After a moment, he smiled.
"My Majesty, I have no interest in him. I invited him here just for the sake of friendship. When we first met, we just met at a tea stall on a rainy day and took a ride in his ox cart. Along the way, there were mostly talkers and monsters.
There are always strange words to say, but they are enlightening. Once you go back and forth, you will get to know each other."
Empress Wanshou lowered her long legs and put them back into her skirt. She leaned forward slightly and narrowed her eyes: "Do you really trust him?"
Hu Yong nodded and bowed.
"Trust it."
Above, Empress Wanshou stared at him silently for a while, and then said: "There were so many people outside just now, so it's not convenient to say some things. Since he is going to Yulong Mountain, I don't want to break his trust. You go and take care of him."
He called."
When Hu Yong heard these words, his face showed joy. It was just as he expected. The empress did not leave in anger, so he was not in a hurry to defend his good brother.
"Your Majesty, please take care of me. I will go and bring Brother Chen here."
at the same time.
In the woods below the cliff, the Wanshou Empress left the banquet and dispersed on behalf of all the demons. It took a lot of effort to come here, and all the gifts were given, but she still didn't let the demons eat and drink before returning home? Otherwise, this trip would be useless.
What a loss.
At this time, Chen Yuan and the old woman went to one side alone. The old woman held the elixir and smelled it vigorously, then quickly wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it in her sleeve.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"The true king has faith, and the old woman will not lie to you."
As she said that, the old woman leaned on crutches and sat on the stone next to her, as if she was lost in memories, "Although the old woman doesn't know what Zhenjun is going to do to find Yulong Mountain, I heard that there are incredible things in that mountain, and there are also mountain spirits."
They searched for it, but failed. However, two of them found it, but unfortunately one died inside and the other escaped. Not long after, he died in his own cave."
"... When the old woman was still an untransformed bat demon, she happened to be perching in the corner of his cave. She heard that the wild boar demon mentioned to other demons he had befriended before his death that the mountains had strange flowers and trees, and peaks.
The rocks are very majestic, and there is a cave that is different from ordinary mountains. It is like spring all year round. Although it looks beautiful, it is full of dangers everywhere. Every flower or grass may kill someone."
"It's a pity that he didn't tell me how to get to that place. He died the next day and died in the cave... in the middle of nowhere..."
Chen Yuan didn't dare to believe all these words, but at least one thing was that there was definitely danger. With this old woman's advice, if you really want to find the place, you can be more cautious and know where not to touch.
"Brother Chen!"
Just when Chen Yuan wanted to ask a few more questions, Hu Yong had already descended from the cliff and came over. The old woman bowed and retreated to the banquet to eat and drink with other monsters.
Hu Yong, who came over, held up his hands and invited Chen Yuan to go to the cliff, "The empress wants you to go to her cave."
Um?
Didn't he just walk away in anger?
Chen Yuan subconsciously looked at Hu Yong, who smiled: "Just go, I won't tell you what you want to know, so come with me."
After saying that, he jumped up to the cliff again. Chen Yuan looked back at the fat Taoist who was eating and drinking, and the master who was holding a wine bowl and competing with a wild boar to drink. He turned around and followed him up the cliff, stepping on stones, his figure
Flying, soon, the toes were pointed on the dead branches of the cliff, and the body leaping high suddenly landed steadily on the small forest growing on the edge of the cliff.
"Brother Chen, please come this way."
Chen Yuan nodded and followed Hu Yong's footsteps. As he walked, he looked at the residence of the Longevity Empress. She couldn't help but look at it curiously. This is something that ordinary people may not have the opportunity to enter in several lifetimes.
The lights inside were bright and it was much warmer than outside. The woman was tall and sitting on a stone seat when she saw Chen Yuan coming in. She nodded slightly and said, "There are many people outside and it's not convenient to say some things. Do you really want to go to Jade Palace?"
Longshan?"
"I really want to go there."
"you alone?"
"More than one, there are as few as ten or twenty people, as many as dozens or hundreds!" Depending on the situation, the other party intends to show him the way, so Chen Yuan no longer conceals it. When the time comes, they will not encounter each other when they come, but
It's better to explain it now.
"What are you doing there?!"
"Zu Yi."
As soon as the voice fell, a gust of wind blew up in the cave, the lights swayed, the woman's eyes were half closed, and a phantom appeared, a white-breasted tiger with dazzling eyes, roaring filial piety.
Hu Yong clearly felt the murderous intention of his empress, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. When he wanted to defend his brother, his majestic and terrifying aura suddenly stopped, and the woman stared at Chen Yuan unblinkingly.
"You are not afraid?"
"Your Majesty has murderous intent, but she doesn't have the intention to kill, so why should you be afraid of her?" Chen Yuan smiled, cupped her hands, lifted up her robe, and sat on the stone bench behind her, "I just don't know why my Majesty becomes so angry when I mention Zu Yi.
He is full of murderous intent toward me."
After a moment of silence, the Wanshou Empress who was sitting on the bear skin closed her eyes slightly, then opened them again to break the deadlock, got up and walked slowly down the stone steps.
"Yulong Mountain is an extraordinary mountain, not even in the world. It is transformed by the spiritual energy of thousands of mountains. Jade is the essence of stone, and Long is the tomb. Ancestor Yi left the world and was buried in the mountain with his jade body..."
The wind in the cave slightly stirred the lights, and the tall woman smiled and slowly turned her face.
"...I am the guardian beast in the mountain."
The words stopped.
Chen Yuan pressed his knees and was stunned. Hu Yong on the side heard these words for the first time and his eyes widened.
The entire cave was filled with only the whirring sound of the breeze.
