Chapter 72: How can there be a road to immortality in the world (34)
My mouth is dry, my brain is like concrete that is about to solidify, and I feel extremely uncomfortable.
Ren Ziling opened her eyes a little, and there was a smoke-like mist spreading in the living room... Have you turned on the humidifier?
Somewhat unable to remember, Ren Ziling pinched her forehead hard and let the alcohol hit her head.
But forget it... I have to turn it on anyway. After all, the heating is on at home. If there is no humidification, it will only be more uncomfortable when you wake up tomorrow, right?
She stood up slightly, and the thin blanket on her body slipped off... Ren Ziling looked at the pillow she was lying on the ground with some confusion... wasn't it placed in the corner of the sofa?
But I really don’t want to move. Fortunately, the water glass in front of the table is half full... Well, have you poured some water over? I...
Gulu, Gulu.
Lying down again, she put her arms across her forehead... It must have been only midnight, and it still felt very quiet outside. Ren Ziling groped around with her hands on the blanket on the ground and quickly found what she was looking for.
cigarette.
It's just that after opening the cigarette box, it was empty... there should be a few cigarettes left, right?
Forget it... Her heavy eyelids closed again, Ren Ziling turned around and rolled up the blanket around her body.
It feels...as if someone is taking care of me...
Luoqiu...
…
The beam of light is still there.
It appeared around 0:10 when the old and new changed, and lasted until about 3:00 in the morning. Instead of quieting down, the Internet world became more and more lively.
It seems that there are indeed many people who choose to keep vigil on this day.
On the roof of a private house near the new address of the club, Luo Qiu was looking into the wind at the beam of light in the distance... At this time, there were light footsteps behind him.
"Master, we have already disposed of all the junk food that Miss Ren kept privately, but we have added some noodles, rice, cereal and other ingredients in the cupboard."
"There's no need to put those things." Luo Qiu shook his head, "She probably won't open the cupboard once in three months."
"There are also quick-frozen snacks, dumplings and wontons in the refrigerator. However, I only left two cans of beer." The maid said softly at this time: "In addition, the quality of the red wine Miss Ren has on hand is too low, I will also replace it.
I bought some. I found them from the ruins last time when your master was at Tu Shenyi Manor. The quality is quite good."
"You shouldn't be able to get rid of the bugs once, right?" Luo Qiu said jokingly.
The maid lady nodded.
I really did it...
Luo Qiu originally planned to do these things himself, but after watching the live broadcast on Ren Ziling's tablet that had not been turned off, Luo Qiu came back first about the matter of Mount Tai's Light Pillar.
"This is spiritual energy, right?" The conversation at home stopped there, and Luo Qiu once again looked at the beam of light shooting into the sky. This was completely the same nature as the energy in the long river of spiritual energy that Luo Qiu encountered underground in his city.
"To this extent, it should be released by gathering the power contained in the nearby earth veins." The maid gave her own opinion.
This saves Luo Qiu the step of purchasing information himself. Generally speaking, Youye's opinions are very close to the facts... She is probably the biggest treasure trove left for him when he took office.
"Having reached this level, it seems that you have really made a lot of determination." The maid smiled slightly at this time.
Luo Qiu remained silent.
Indeed, having achieved this level, the next step may be to drastically change the structure of the world.
So, if Alaya still doesn't show up...does he really acquiesce in this direction?
"I'm going back first." Luo Qiu came back and said, "I'll leave it to you to prepare for the next thing."
"Understood." The maid bowed her head obediently and said, "Best farewell to the master."
"Oh, right."
Luo Qiu suddenly said at this time: "Next time, let's make dumplings at once? I think it will be more interesting if the two of us talk together."
"OK."
After the master left, You Ye silently looked at the huge spiritual energy beam for a while before waving his hand.
Beside her, the air began to twist, twisting into a black vortex... The vortex expanded, and soon it was two meters in diameter.
The maid lady walked into it without thinking...the gap between dimensions.
…
…
"Chosen people, congratulations on finally defeating the New Year special boss 'The Dark Maid'! Please accept your rewards!"
Above the sky of the world, the rolling clouds turned into a huge face, solemn, supreme, and terrifying... It is the ruler of this world, the main god Taiyin.
The clouds gradually returned to their original appearance. On the New Year's Special Dungeon map, exhausted players collapsed on the ground... After six or seven hours of hard work, more than 3,000 players from around the world gathered together to finally behead the New Year.
The special boss and the fierce battle are so intense that I really don’t want to experience it again.
But at this time, those generous rewards fell from the sky like rain and fell into the hands of every surviving player, making this hard work pay off.
Consider it a New Year's gift, right?
At the end of the world, in the distant land of the Lord God, the Lord God... Well, just after he came back, Taiyinzi threw himself directly on the ground, his body shriveled up like an old corpse.
"My liver was too severe for this special event, and my mental energy was completely exhausted... I feel so uncomfortable!"
Although in the system world created by the maid lady, most functions can be realized with the help of the power of the system. After all, Taiyinzi is the core of the system, so her own energy is constantly being consumed.
"Sign out……"
With his legs shaking from the ground, like an old man who had to put dog skin plaster on his back after going to the disco, Taiyinzi held his waist and temporarily logged out of the game world.
In the room used to house the system host, the same image of Taiyinzi appeared instantly. He looked at the robot Adam in the room and said casually: "Adam, take a rest for half an hour and temporarily switch to intelligent monitoring."
"learn."
Taiyinzi half-closed his eyes like dead fish, and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Adam, where is your master?"
"The master and the master's master are out." Adam said directly.
Master’s master…
Damn it! The boss is back?
Taiyinzi was startled suddenly...but then he yawned again. Anyway, the boss and the manager didn't call him when they went out...that means they had nothing to do.
However, if that vicious manager is not here...
"hey-hey……"
Taiyinzi glanced at Adam, who had a large number of data lines connected to the system host, and then quietly slid out of the door of the room.
The state of the Black Soul Messenger is actually very strange. It can be regarded as another life form that also feels tired and even quenches hunger.
Of course, physical hunger can generally be replenished through food intake...but there are actually better things that can not only eliminate the feeling of hunger, but can even directly replenish mental expenditure.
Taiyinzi knows where this kind of thing is placed. It is used by the maid to brew scented tea for the master!
"Mom, who knew that this kind of ordinary-looking flower tea has the same effect as the spiritual liquid of my time... Well, I remember it was hidden here. Don't think that I don't know! I am very familiar with this store.
A man who knows everything about the three levels above!"
Although the brewing effect and taste are completely different from the maid's craftsmanship... Taiyinzi only needs the effect of the scented tea itself. Doesn't it taste the same after eating it?
"Well... the New Year's special event has come to an end. Next is... the Lantern Festival event?" Taiyinzi murmured while holding a cup and drinking scented tea in the corridor.
"Um?"
But the door of a room in the corridor is indeed ajar at this time... Couldn't that sinister manager be the one who left the finishing touches?
Taiyinzi curiously opened the door with his toes... There is no doubt that this room is just an ordinary storage room, basically filled with dry goods, seasonings, wine and the like.
There are a lot of good things in that room, I really want to open it...
"Has anyone been here?"
There were some odds and ends on the table, as well as a painting tube...but the painting tube was empty. Taiyinzi also curiously opened the odds and ends one by one.
The last thing I bought was a small brocade box... In fact, this brocade box had this rather special pattern on it.
Taiyinzi looked at the pattern on the box and rubbed his chin, "This pattern looks so familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere?"
Suddenly, some long-lasting memories suddenly opened up in Taiyinzi's mind, "Isn't this... the sealing mark of Huanzhen Tao?"
As for the Huanzhen Dao, it is the sect where Taiyinzi lived five hundred years ago.
Taiyinzi frowned and couldn't help his curiosity (mainly because he saw something that seemed to belong to his former master), so he started tracing the lines with his fingers.
"Who wrote this tattoo? It's full of mistakes! You can tell at a glance that you haven't practiced properly! Don't let me catch you, little bastard!"
Click.
Not long after, the small brocade box opened automatically under the unsealing of Taiyinzi, and a golden light shined through the crack in the opening.
Taiyinzi frowned and opened the box directly. He saw a golden light in front of his eyes. Under this golden light, he could faintly see the true contents of the contents.
"This...could this be..." Taiyinzi suddenly shuddered, "Is it possible..."
His expression suddenly changed slightly, and then he quickly closed the brocade box, put it in his arms, rushed out of the utility room, and ran to his work place.
Ignoring Adam's greeting, Taiyinzi directly clicked on the computer's perpetual calendar and started flipping through it... until this day of the year.
"It turns out... it's the Penglai meeting again." Taiyinzi sat down and looked at the brocade box in his hand, his expression changing.
"Lord God Taiyin, do you want to continue to maintain the intelligent supervision program? You have been out of the game world for thirty-seven minutes and forty-five seconds."
"Continue the trusteeship!" Taiyinzi gritted his teeth suddenly, "I want to go out."
After saying that, Taiyinzi hurried out of the old pine door of the club.
…
…
Surrounded by lush peach blossoms and colorful fallen flowers, it is like a legendary fairyland.
It has been some time since you came to this place, maybe an hour or two? Zhui Feng looked at his brother Mo Xiaofei in a daze.
Ever since he came here and said some strange words, the eldest brother didn't know why, but he stood under a peach blossom tree and didn't move or speak.
Zhui Feng yawned and looked a little sleepy.
But it's a strange thing... Although this place is full of peach blossoms, it seems a bit strangely quiet. Apart from these peach blossom trees, Zhui Feng didn't see anything moving.
Even bugs and the like don't seem to exist... Although this place is beautiful, it feels vaguely lifeless.
"Let's go." 'Mo Xiaofei' suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Zhui Feng.
"Where to go?"
'Mo Xiaofei' raised his hand and pointed at a mountain road outside the peach blossom forest that towered into the sky, with the peak completely hidden in the clouds and mist: "There."
"Brother...you just said this place is dead, what do you mean?" Zhui Feng still asked the question in his heart.
"Don't you know Penglai?" 'Mo Xiaofei' suddenly asked.
Zhui Feng shook his head honestly.
'Mo Xiaofei' frowned and asked again: "Have you never heard of the story of Xu Fu's eastward journey and going to sea to seek immortal medicine? Aren't there many versions of this story on the Internet?"
Zhui Feng scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Which...doesn't have a computer at home."
'Mo Xiaofei' walked towards the mountain and said: "Xu Fu is from Qin and went to sea to seek the elixir for the emperor. It is said that the elixir is hidden in the hands of the immortals of Penglai Immortal Way."
"Penglai Immortal Island...could it be this place?" Zhui Feng's eyes widened.
"Yes, and no." 'Mo Xiaofei' shook his head, "This is just its shell, what's left of it is an empty shell. But even if it's just an empty shell, it's still a paradise, like a fairyland."
"It's quite beautiful..." Zhui Feng looked around and then asked curiously: "So did Xu Fu finally get the elixir for the emperor from the immortal?"
"He didn't." 'Mo Xiaofei' shook his head, "But he brought back the dead Penglai, and he also brought back the body of an immortal."
"Immortal!!" Zhui Feng was no longer wide-eyed at this time, but dumbfounded!!
"It's in the mountains."
'Mo Xiaofei' said calmly: "Back then, I built a large number of mausoleums, and one of them was to house the dead Penglai... I devoted all my efforts to the Taoist priests who had been suppressed and ordered them to join forces with the demon clan to save the country.
I have fixed this place. Now..."
He sighed slowly, "Now, I am back. This is the place where the greatest regret in my life is buried..."
