Like a victorious general, Jiu Yuanzi was welcomed into Shouxian City by the people and demons all over the city.
Miracles continued along the way, and passers-by came from nowhere and excitedly told the people watching about their adventures.
When the immortal driver passed by the village, the dystocia cow gave birth to a calf.
My wife had lost her bellyband for a month and suddenly found it at Lao Wang's house next door. It turned out that it had been blown to the next door by the wind and was suppressed by the quilt, so she didn't find it.
Great, the bellyband was not picked up by a bad man and my wife’s innocence was preserved.
The fairy spirit of Our Lady of Xiantao shines throughout the city, bringing all kinds of good luck to the people.
I met Jiu Yuanzi first. The Taoist being questioned was called Xin Daozi. He followed Master He with a respectful attitude, like a mouse meeting a cat.
He reported in a low voice: "Uncle Master, this Immortal Peach Virgin has very powerful magic. My disciples encountered it at the foot of Shouxian Mountain. It brought many blessings along the way."
"My disciple saw with his own eyes that an old man who was about to expire sat up and ate after being blown by the Immortal Peach Air."
"When passing by a withered bamboo forest, it also restored all the bamboo forest to life, and many fresh bamboo shoots sprouted from the ground."
Master He frowned slightly and said, "Is this serious? Have you seen it with your own eyes?"
Xin Daozi said with certainty: "It is indeed the disciple who saw it with his own eyes. Other Taoist disciples also saw various blessings. Please take a closer look, Master."
Strange, does this unknown peach demon not look so powerful?
On the contrary, the peach that looks like a guard next to it has a higher level of cultivation and is on par with him.
And it was strangely red, more like a magic peach.
Master He frowned slightly and did not look back at Jiu Motoko behind him. He just continued to lead the way with graceful strides.
He had some doubts that the Fairy Peach Virgin was just an illusion, and the real peach demon was the red peach.
Just like the city lord likes to visit privately incognito when he has nothing to do, push the guards or maids to the front, pretend to be a young lady or a young master, and then he pretends to be a housekeeper or an old slave.
I wandered around the city all day long, trying to see if anyone had anything bad to say about me.
The origins of these two peach demons are unknown. At best, they just cultivated their spiritual wisdom and wanted to come to the human world to earn glory and wealth.
At a more serious level, it may want to sneak into the city first, then transform into a giant peach demon tree, and use the hundreds of thousands of people in the city as blood food to improve their cultivation.
hateful!
The people in this city were all raised by the Shouxian Palace through hard work. They themselves couldn't bear to eat it, so why would it be the turn of the wild monsters from outside?
"If you do well this time, I will give you a longevity pill." Master He praised Xin Daozi.
This disciple of unknown generation was very smart in his work. Not only did he bring the Peach Demon back, he also sent someone to report the news in advance.
Now the senior brother has made all preparations and is waiting for the peach feast.
The Shouxian Palace is in the east of the city, facing the City Lord's Mansion in the west of the city, with a huge residential area in the middle.
Although they are opposite each other, Shouxian City is very large and has hundreds of thousands of people living there, so they are far apart.
Moreover, the Shouxian Palace is larger than the City Lord's Palace, with nearly ten thousand immortal officials, and it is as gorgeous as a royal palace.
After Jiu Yuanzi was carried into Shouxian Palace, he looked around. There were too many buildings here, going around and around, and the scenery was almost the same everywhere. It was the first time he came here without anyone to guide him, so he would definitely get lost.
Fortunately, my dear, he was carried in. If he had come by himself, by the time he found Gong Yangyan, I would probably only have the peach core left.
There were immortal Taoists everywhere on both sides of the road, and there were people bowing to Master He everywhere.
Even the immortal official who was repairing the roof had to stop what he was doing to salute him while standing on the smooth glass roof.
We were halfway there when suddenly a Taoist hurried over and reported, "Uncle Master, the city lord is here."
"What, what is he here for? The longevity banquet will officially begin after the banquet." Master He raised his hand and the team stopped.
He and his senior brother were determined to capture the peach demon, and they had already set up a large formation to wait for it. Now his senior brother was presiding over the formation, just waiting for him to respectfully invite the peach demon over.
Why is the city lord here at this time?
The Taoist reported: "I heard that they came to see the Holy Mother of the Immortal Peach. They also brought several pregnant concubines, saying they wanted to imbibe the immortal energy and give birth to a son who would live to be a hundred years old."
"The disciples wanted to stop him, but for some reason, the city lord brought his guards this time. He must see the Holy Mother of the Immortal Peach. We didn't dare to stop him by force."
Master He was a little surprised that the city lord dared to break into the Shou Immortal Palace. Did he not want to live for a few more years?
A sudden change occurred and the team temporarily stopped.
The city lord also has monks under his command, and he doesn't want to lead people to the magic circle. If they cause trouble, he will be in trouble.
Forget it, I must be here to survive again, let's help him survive for a few more days first.
Jiu Yuanzi sat without moving, but looked at a five-story building in the distance. That building exuded a familiar aura, the same as the door control she used in Heaven.
The demons here can use magic circles, but they are not very professional and seem a bit reluctant.
If we describe it in terms of human door locks, the magic circle on the mountain of Diyi Auction House is like the several-meter-thick anti-theft and explosion-proof door in the underground vault of a bank, then this one of Yaodao is a padlock.
The kind that hangs on the door, locks the bicycle shed or utility room.
Aim at the lock and hit it hard, and it will be removed.
It is certain that this is an illiterate monster with little education, otherwise who would use this kind of magic circle to trap people.
But fortunately, this kind of magic circle is mass-produced and is very simple to obtain. The low-level fairies are used to guard the courtyard gate. There are no valuables in the courtyard anyway.
The city lord came very quickly, being carried by eight guards and ran towards here, followed by a large group of people, and they were also carrying several pregnant concubines.
"Immortal Master, Immortal Master, wait a moment." The city lord shouted feebly and was carried over.
Jiu Yuanzi took a look and realized that the city lord was old enough.
He is old, his hair and beard are white and weak, his body is covered with wrinkles, he is also unusually thin, and his energy is not good.
It looked like he was at least a hundred years old and could die at any time.
If he really wanted to die here, he would let the gorgeously dressed son next to him, who looked like he had not yet become the city lord at the age of eighty, be happy before his death.
"City Lord Yao, the longevity banquet hasn't started yet, why did you break into my longevity palace?" Master He's tone was not tough, but his attitude was not very good.
They were busy doing serious things and really had no time to deal with the city lord.
City Lord Yao looked at Jiu Yuanzi, his eyes almost glowing when he looked at the peach that was full of fairy spirit. He only had the words "I want to eat" written on his face.
"Our Lady of Xiantao, I came here specifically to see her."
Jiu Motoko's emotionless and pretentious voice sounded, "Poor old man, why do you want to see me so much?"
Seeing that he was being spoken to, City Lord Yao excitedly asked someone to help him up and sit up, and said a little pitifully: "Mother Mother, although I am the lord of a city, my life is about to end. Please have mercy on Mother Goddess, let me Increase your life span a little and watch my hundredth child be born."
Jiu Motoko felt that he had gone too far. He had lived for hundreds of years and could have given birth to a hundred children, and now he was greedy and wanted to live longer.
What should the bachelor do? Life is not going to be easy for anyone.
But she couldn't tell the truth at this time, so she asked: "How old do you want to live?"
City Lord Yao opened his eyes wide and said excitedly: "I am thirty-five this year. I don't ask for much. As long as I can live past forty, I will be satisfied."
"How much?" Jiu Yuanzi couldn't help raising his voice, "Are you only thirty-five years old?"
"Sure enough, it's the Holy Mother who has the power to extend life. God's eyes are opened!" City Lord Yao went a little crazy. His eyes almost popped out, with a desperate expression on his deathbed. "If the Holy Mother can let me live to sixty, I can dedicate this half of Shouxian City to the Empress."
Master He couldn't listen anymore. What do you mean by half of Shouxian City? Now you have given us two-thirds of Shouxian City.
If you give out half of what you want now, and you don’t know how to find someone to calculate it, do you still have half of it?
He took a step forward and said in a cold voice: "City Lord Yao, have you forgotten? Your five years of life were extended by our Shouxian Palace for you, otherwise you would have died five years ago."
"There are even words among the people to laugh at the young master. How can there be a little city lord in this world who has been here for twenty years?"
"The Holy Mother of Fairy Peach is a deity enshrined in our Shou Immortal Palace. This appearance is for the Fairy Peach Banquet the day after tomorrow. It is rude for City Lord Yao to come here in a hurry to disturb the immortal." He shook the Buddha dust and his face became cold. .
"City Lord Yao, please do it wisely and come back the next day. Don't be disrespectful. People all over the city are watching."
Next to City Lord Yao, the old man who looked to be in his eighties also said: "Dad, let's go back first and come back the day after tomorrow. Didn't the Immortal Master promise you to live to forty? I would rather be a second The little city lord of fifteen years, just order it for two more days."
Jiu Motoko covered her face with a small peach leaf and looked at this scene in shock. The life span of people in this place is so short!
Those who failed to take the throne for twenty years were ridiculed, but those who were unable to succeed for seventy years were not allowed to become legends and recorded in history books.

On Fridays and weekends, my children get out of school early, and I have to rest at home on the weekends to cook and other things. Sometimes updates are delayed, and occasionally they are late. It would be great if every day when I wake up, there are two new chapters written in my computer.
