Chapter 34: Lotus Blossoms at Every Step
If the world is peaceful and the court has sufficient control, the people will definitely not allow private city building, at most they will just form villages and towns. This is also a side confirmation of the saying that the imperial power does not go to the countryside.
However, now the world is in chaos, the emperor is getting old and trapped in the palace walls, and various places are rebelling from time to time. The refugees who can’t survive, the ambitious frontier officials, the vassal kings with ulterior motives, and even the foreign races in the north, all tacitly push down the already broken Zhou Dynasty bit by bit.
Under such circumstances, even if Pei Xiu is a court official who is still loyal to the Zhou Dynasty, he will not object to the people at the foot of Zishan building a city.
Although this move is inappropriate, in Pei Xiu’s view, it is a good way to protect the people of one side.
“Master, please take this magic medicine.”
At this time, a servant came quickly and presented a glass bottle.
Pei Xiu took the glass bottle in his hand, and his expression of admiration was beyond words.
The liquid medicine in the bottle was green. After opening the lid and sniffing it carefully, he could smell the fragrance and feel comfortable all over.
Seeing that the people not far away had lined up to receive a bottle of medicine from the servants, Pei Xiu did not hesitate and drank the magic medicine.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the liquid medicine slid down his throat and entered his stomach. Pei Xiu suddenly felt a wave of heat rising from his stomach, and the fatigue of the night was instantly gone.
Feng Yunqi said at the right time: “Those who suffer from this epidemic can take this medicine to cure the disease, and those who are healthy can take it to ensure that they will never suffer from this disease again in the future.”
The special medicine produced by Nuwa should be a combination of treatment and prevention.
“But the magic medicine is limited, so the God has given the immortal prescription, so that mortal doctors can follow this path and cure patients.”
“In addition, there are the God’s five commandments…”
Listening to Feng Yunqi’s words, such as the commandment not to drink raw water, Pei Xiu was thoughtful, glanced at the happy people, and said seriously: “Please rest assured, Lingnu, I will definitely get this done!”
“It’s just that the most urgent task is to build houses for the people as soon as possible in addition to treating the patients, so as not to freeze to death in the wind and snow.”
Keeping warm in winter is indeed a top priority.
…Dividing line…
The next day.
Huang Rong and Shen Xingke stood side by side on a cloud platform, waving to Nuwa on the side.
“Sister Nuwa, Brother Xing and I will go first.”
“Go ahead.” Nuwa waved her hand carelessly, “I’ll watch over here, it’s okay.”
Shen Xingke gave a few more instructions before injecting the inner into the Xuanguang Pei.
Nuwa’s eyes flashed with endless data streams, and she stared carefully at the time and space gate that slowly unfolded in front of Shen Xingke.
Although Huang Rong had studied the Xuanguang Pei with Shen Xingke when she was practicing hard every day, and Shen Xingke had even gone to another world several times in front of Nuwa, Nuwa could not analyze the principle of the time and space gate.
And because the core equipment that carries her computing power is located in the Purple Mountain, the Huiwen Jade Omen on Shen Xingke’s body is just a submodule used for assistance, so she couldn’t follow Shen Xingke to the opposite side.
Otherwise, it would be forced to shut down on the spot due to insufficient computing power.
“We are leaving.” Shen Xingke said goodbye to Nuwa, took Huang Rong’s hand and stepped into the time and space gate and disappeared.
As the two disappeared, the smile on Nuwa’s face gradually faded, and her expression was indifferent, no longer with a trace of humanity.
According to legend, in ancient times, the great goddess Nuwa who spread civilization was definitely not the lively and agile person who laughed and played in front of Shen Xingke and Huang Rong.
On the other side, Shen and Huang appeared again and had returned to the nameless valley outside Xiangyang City.
Shen Xingke raised his hand, and a bird flew down from the sky and landed on the back of his hand obediently.
“Eh? Brother Xing, did you leave a drone here?”
“When you were practicing, I came back to set it up.” Shen Xingke explained, “I set a self-discipline program for it to search this valley.”
Huang Rong immediately understood that Brother Xing was still thinking about the Dugu Nine Swords he had mentioned to her before.
After reading the data of the bird’s search records in recent days, Shen Xingke smiled: “Good Rong’er, the divine eagle and the sword tomb have been found.”
With a big hand, he held Huang Rong’s slender waist, and Shen Xingke jumped up, leaving behind pieces of golden light and afterimages and drifting away.
After that, every step he took disappeared instantly as if the earth was shrunk into an inch, and appeared nearly ten feet away, really like a god or a ghost.
Where Shen Xingke disappears, gorgeous flaming red lotuses will bloom, and there will be black birds transformed by golden light and wings. Such a strange phenomenon will disappear in the blink of an eye.
Huang Rong leaned on Shen Xingke’s arms, and saw Shen Xingke running in the air, covering her mouth and laughing: “The lightness skill of Peach Blossom Island has really become like a fairy skill in Brother Xing’s hands. Rong’er doesn’t have the ability to bloom lotus step by step.”
“Don’t mention it, I feel like I’m playing a third-rate online game with special effects as the main feature.”
In the East Palace, Nuwa reproduced many games from the era before Shen Xingke traveled through time. Although there are only two players in the online game, Huang Rong and Nuwa, who is Nuwa?
She could open thousands of trumpets at once with a flick of her finger. Shen Xingke witnessed countless Nuwa trumpets rushing to defeat the BOSS, and Huang Rong cheering and shouting beside them.
But because she had to practice martial arts, the little girl didn’t play much although she liked it.
Soon, the two came to a place deep in the valley where few people went.
There was a stone cave covered by vines in front of them.
“Is this the place where the Dugu senior was buried?” Huang Rong stepped forward and raised her hand to push away the branches covering the cave entrance.
After she heard about the deeds of the Dugu Qiubai senior from Shen Xingke, she was yearning for him. She always wondered what kind of person could shout out the deafening “Kill all the enemies, defeat all the heroes, and the heroes are helpless, isn’t it sad?”
Shen Xingke was also thinking.
Yang Guo is here only to learn the heavy sword from the Divine EagleThe original text never mentioned the Dugu Nine Swords Secret Book.
But in the later era of The Laughing Proud Wanderer, Feng Qingyang inherited this set of swordsmanship.
It is impossible to say that Dugu Qiubai did not leave the Dugu Nine Swords behind. Shen Xingke could only think that the secret book was hidden in the tomb of the sword demon.
“Rong’er, please step back.”
“Hey!”
Huang Rong responded and floated back to Shen Xingke’s side. He waved his hand, and the vines and branches at the entrance of the cave gave birth to golden flames. Soon, they all turned into ashes, revealing the entrance.
The two smiled at each other and went in together.
When they walked to the depths, they saw a small stone hill made of rubble.
Shen Xingke shook his head: “A generation of sword demon, there is no one to collect his body after his death. I think it was the divine eagle that came with rocks in its mouth and built a desolate tomb for him.”
Huang Rong smiled and said: “Brother Xing, let’s build a new tomb for this sword demon senior?”
Shen Xingke agreed: “Okay, if we want to inherit his legacy, we should build a tomb for him.”
