With the growth of the space population, Anping Town has been expanded several times, but it is still planned in an orderly manner. The road paved with bluestone is straight and smooth, with restaurants, inns, bookstores, pharmacies, etc. lined up on both sides of the road.
It was already dinner time, smoke was everywhere in the city, men were returning home, and women were calling for their children.
Qin Mingyue's beautiful eyes stared at a clothing shop on the street. The door opened and a man dressed in short clothes entered the house. A pair of children threw themselves into their arms, hugging the man and chattering non-stop. A young woman smiled. He came up and used a handkerchief to brush off the dust on the man's body.
"That man's name is Hu Er." Seeing that she was fascinated, Yang Zhen said from the side.
Then he briefly narrated Hu Er's experience in the mountain domain. Qin Mingyue couldn't help but feel horrified when she heard that this man's previous wife had died tragically at the mouth of a monster, with no body left.
She had heard Yang Zhen mention the experiences of those mortals in the Mountain Domain just now. However, the feeling was not deep at that time. She had a feeling that she was just listening to a story, which was far less shocking than seeing a living victim now.
"This man's eldest son has grown up and is now working part-time in school," Yang Zhen continued to introduce: "This is the wife he newly married after coming to Anping Town. The eldest boy is the woman's, and the younger daughter is theirs. of."
"Do you know all the mortals here?" Qin Mingyue asked curiously, seeing Yang Zhen counting her family treasures.
"How is that possible?" Yang Zhen thought for a while and said sheepishly: "About 30 to 40% of them look familiar, and less than 10% can actually name them."
"10%, that's 10,000 people!" Qin Mingyue stared at Yang Zhen with her beautiful eyes without blinking, full of admiration.
As if to confirm Yang Zhen's words, passers-by soon recognized this life-saving Bodhisattva for the people of Anping Town, and came over to greet him:
"Hello, Mr. Xiaolang!"
"Have you eaten, young man?"
"Young gentleman, come and sit in our store."
These people smiled and greeted Qin Mingyue at the same time, with a respectful attitude, and the smiles on their faces were sincere and enthusiastic.
Yang Zhen returned the greeting frequently, sometimes "Hello, Aunt Zhang!" "Uncle Liu, are you on duty?", sometimes "How many fish did Brother Tian catch today?" "Jia Junpeng, why don't you go home quickly? Your mother is calling you to go home for dinner!" "Wait, Yan Yan was talking and laughing with these people, as if they were acquaintances who had known each other for many years.
Qin Mingyue watched with interest. After a while, the two squeezed out of the crowd and walked out of the town.
"Anping Town is really their paradise!" The woman looked back at the lights of the town, thoughtfully.
Yang Zhen smiled knowingly. The allusion of paradise is spread from him. A few years ago in Chunan Town, he once wrote a story, using the background of "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring". In that story, he described a secret place where peach blossoms bloomed, in which many of his ideals were entrusted, and many measures are now being implemented in Anping Town.
"The eldest princess has a kind heart. As long as she adheres to the word 'fairness', Qin will definitely become a paradise under your governance in the future." He said sincerely.
These words made Qin Mingyue fall into silence. For a while, the woman shook her head and sighed: "Fairness is easier said than done!"
"This is the world of cultivators," Yang Zhen disagreed: "As long as you have enough strength, why can't you maintain fairness?"
"Strength?" Qin Mingyue laughed dumbly: "Do you want me to rely on my strong force to make everyone obey me and work together to build a fair world for Qin?"
"Why not?"
"How do I know that what I do is definitely right? Once you get used to relying on force, what's the difference between you and a demonic person?" Qin Mingyue said seriously.
"You can form a committee below as your deliberation and executive body," Yang Zhen said, "There is such an organization in Anping Town, and the Hu Er you just met is one of them."
"I may be able to take care of two institutions at the same time. If the six hundred counties and counties in the Qin State are all institutions like this, how can I guarantee that the people below have no selfish desires of their own and will not bend the law for personal gain?"
"Furthermore, even if he doesn't do whatever he wants, won't the people around him come to him?" Qin Mingyue sneered: "Just like Hu Er you just said, if he is not the executive committee member you said. Here. Can he, a mere mortal in this small town, really marry such a virtuous woman?"
Yang Zhen's heart trembled. Many things, even things happening around you, you often see only the surface, and you may not be able to clearly understand the undercurrents underneath.
"At worst, catch one, deal with one, and kill one to serve as a warning to others. Let's see who dares to reach out." He gritted his teeth. It's just that such murderous words were said to be weak at the moment.
"It's not a long-term strategy." Qin Mingyue shook her head and commented.
The two ended the discussion. Although they did not reach any consensus, they seemed to have gotten to know each other again, and they suddenly felt a bit of sympathy and confidant.
As the night grew darker, they strolled by the nearby lake. The lights of the small town in the distance were like fireflies in the dark night, casting dots of light on the lake. Along with the faint hustle and bustle, the surroundings seemed even more peaceful and quiet.
"I have a method here. If the measures are taken properly, the eldest princess's injury may be restored quickly." Yang Zhen hesitated in her heart for a long time, and finally brought up the idea that had been lingering for a long time.
"What can I do?" Qin Mingyue turned to look at the man, her beautiful eyes shining like stars in the night.
"It's a set of dual cultivation techniques." Yang Zhen mustered up her courage and began to introduce the special features of the "Five Elements Mending Heaven Sutra".
Not long after, Qin Mingyue exclaimed: "The energy of chaos! Can you actually produce the energy of chaos in your body?"
Yang Zhen nodded: "However, dual cultivators must have single spiritual roots."
"Where is Tianlinggen?"
"Of course that's no problem."
"I am Tianlinggen," Qin Mingyue said calmly, "I am a dual-system Tianlinggen."
Dual-system Tianling roots? This time it was Yang Zhen's turn to be stunned. What kind of qualifications is this?
"What you said about the technique is correct. There are more than sixteen meridians in the human body, and they should not only belong to certain five elements attributes," Qin Mingyue said: "There are two kinds of meridians in my body. When I was twelve years old, At that time, what manifested was the fire spiritual vein, and the spiritual root was the nine-inch, nine-minute and nine-centimeter heavenly spiritual root. But soon afterwards, I discovered that I also had a very good affinity for the metal spiritual root. Later, I went to After consulting the classics, I guess there may be a hidden metallic meridian in the body."
"When I hit the realm of golden elixir, I used your country's heavenly wood spirit beads and the method taught in the classics to successfully activate the golden spiritual roots in my body. Its length is also nine inches, nine minutes and nine centimeters."
"No wonder you tried your best to get that Wood Spirit Pearl." Yang Zhen suddenly realized.
"But wood generates fire, metal defeats wood, and earth generates metal. You should use the earth spirit bead?" he asked strangely.
"My situation is quite special. Maybe I need to use the method of mutual restraint to stimulate it," Qin Mingyue thought: "The way of the five elements is the way of evolution of all things in the world. Their mutual generation, mutual restraint, and mutual transformation are originally ever-changing and unrestricted. If it’s the same pattern, how can it be deduced by common sense?”
Yang Zhen nodded repeatedly, deeply convinced.
"If I want my injury to get better as soon as possible, shouldn't I practice cultivation with you?" Qin Mingyue and Yingying looked at Yang Zhen with amusement in their eyes.
"Yes," Yang Zhen suppressed her inner excitement: "There is another requirement. You must really like me."
"Like you?" Qin Mingyue tilted her head and thought for a while: "I have never liked anyone."
Yang Zhen shrugged: "Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
"No," Qin Mingyue said seriously, "I want to try."
…
The two came to Qin Mingyue's residence.
The two sides sat cross-legged facing each other. Qin Ming's moon face was like still water, and he stretched out his jade hands to touch Yang Zhen's palms.
She absorbed spiritual energy very quickly and accumulated enough spiritual energy in an instant to easily help Yang Zhen open up four golden spiritual veins.
This means that all the five elements of meridians in Yang Zhen’s body have been opened! Among them, the three elements of wood, water, and earth have all been opened up. Currently, the only thing lacking is the two elements of gold and fire.
Qin Mingyue happens to have the Golden Fire Spiritual Root, and also has the dual-system Heavenly Spiritual Root. This is a match made in heaven!
Yang Zhen's heart was surging, and she followed the same example and helped Qin Mingyue break through the four wood spiritual veins.
This also made the woman overjoyed. She secretly believed 80% of what Yang Zhen said about this technique.
Next, is the second stage of skin-to-skin contact.
Yang Zhen looked at the woman opposite, and Qin Mingyue met his eyes with a calm and generous expression.
"Come on!" She whispered, her voice as clear and pleasant as if she were strolling in a garden, and her attitude was calm.
However, the red clouds flying up from the cheeks reveal the shyness and sweetness of the daughter's family, just like a pot of daughter's red that has been stored in the cellar for eighteen years, it is fragrant and pleasing to the eye.
"Don't worry, I feel like walking on flat ground when I climb a high mountain." Yang Zhen whispered softly in her ear.
Qin Mingyue's earlobes turned crimson instantly.
…
The second phase went equally well.
Yang Zhen successively unblocked five metal and fire meridians.
It was getting bright at this time, and before I knew it, the night had passed.
"Would you like to rest for a while?" Yang Zhen asked softly.
Qin Mingyue's cheeks were dizzy, dripping with fragrant sweat, and her bones exuded a sultry aura. This kind of charm is natural, not only without deliberateness, but also gives people a sense of dignity, elegance and softness.
"No, let's continue." She raised her slender eyebrows with hope in her eyes.
Yang Zhen was good at everything. While teaching the formula in a low voice, she restrained her mind and focused on guarding the Niwan Palace.
Bits and pieces of the past with the woman next to me flashed through my mind, from the first time I heard the name in Langshan, to the first meeting in Shenpo Mountain, and then the unforgettable Qingyan burn in Panxi Mountain, until yesterday's shadow. A mistake made a mistake, and the fate turned upside down...
"Yesterday's day cannot be retained, and tomorrow's day is unknown..."
These two ancient sayings suddenly popped up in front of her eyes, and Yang Zhen was slightly startled. What did this mean?
Doesn't this make me forget all about her in the past and take advantage of her today?
However, if there were no entanglements in the past, where would my love for her come from? Wouldn't it be rootless water?
Could it be just pure desire?
She is the future Queen of Qin, and her Nascent Soul is just around the corner. It is also possible to transform into a god. Do I really like her, or do I want to possess these identities of hers?
Am I sincere to her?
Yang Zhen was in a state of confusion.
Half an hour later, an hour later, and two hours later, Niwan Palace remained silent, and the familiar gray gas disappeared without a trace.
Yang Zhen sighed, shook her head, and woke up the woman who was in trance.
"Come again." A trace of determination flashed across Qin Mingyue's face, biting her lips.
Another two hours passed, and the sky gradually became dark.
"Come again!" A stubborn voice sounded.
The night is deep.
"Come again!"
"Come again!"
"Come again!"
…
"forget it!"
It was white in the east and it was already the early morning of the third day. Yang Zhen stood up, came to the courtyard, looked at the sky with her hands behind her hands, and sighed in her heart.
"I'm sorry." Qin Mingyue did not persist, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes.
"I have tried many times to like you, but I don't know how to like you..."
She murmured, and the crisp and heroic demeanor of the day before was gone now.
One day and two nights not only consumed her mind, but also seemed to wipe out all her efforts.
"No, it may also be my problem." Yang Zhen said secretly in her heart.
"You have a good rest, I will come back to you in the afternoon." He smiled brightly: "Maybe next time we meet, we will fall in love at first sight!"
…
Yang Zhen did a lot of things this morning.
First, he searched for Yiyi all over the world and found that Xiao Xiancao was bored playing backgammon with Xiao Zizi, and he grabbed her.
"Do you still have that kind of tea?" He told Yiyi what happened in the past two days: "She and I have not known each other for a long time. It is difficult to like each other in this short time. Otherwise, try this tea again and use it. That kind of psychedelic effect, I don’t know…”
"Why are you so impatient?" Xiao Xiancao asked: "The days are long, she is in this space, you can slowly interact with her!"
"I don't want to see her disappointed," Yang Zhen said frankly: "Qin Mingyue attaches great importance to the opportunity of the ancestral land. If she misses this opportunity, she will definitely be upset for hundreds of years. And the three princes who murdered her, She doesn’t even want them to succeed.”
"You care about her quite a lot," Yiyi smiled with her eyebrows arched: "I assert that you must have fallen in love with her, and the reason should be her. Also, it is definitely useless to use medicinal tea."
"You are a little baby, do you know what love is?" Yang Zhen slapped her on the forehead without politeness.
Yiyi found nothing here, so she went to look for Qing Xiaoling, and was surprised to find that the little fox was grabbed by Zixue and taught her some self-protection spells.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
It turns out that the day before yesterday, Qing Xiaoling pretended to be Zixue and tricked Qin Mingyue into drinking tea. Somehow, it had reached Zixue's ears.
But about that role-playing, does this senior sister still not know about it? Otherwise...
Yang Zhen shuddered and warned herself to restrain herself in the future.
Perhaps it was because of her sister Nascent Soul that Zixue had memorized many of the spells from the foundation building stage to the golden elixir stage, and the explanations were clear and logical, such as the [Water Mirror Technique]. At this moment, the little fox was under her guidance. Come on, practice well.
Yang Zhen looked at it for a while, and if she realized something, she decided to calm down and do what she should do.
Cultivation, physical exercise, alchemy...
He was busy until around Shenshi, when he returned to Qin Mingyue's valley.
In the distance, a melodious sound of the piano came...
