The eldest princess just stared blankly for a moment, then her eyes softened, and she called out softly: "Father."
Zou Chang patted the eldest princess's hand and said nothing more. He turned to look at Song Yu and said, "The immortal has saved my prince. If you have any needs, please ask."
The progress was smoother than Song Yu expected. He was not going to make any detours and said straightforwardly: "We want to take a look at the seven-star dragon lamp."
Hearing this, Zou Chang's expression became a little hesitant. After all, this is a soul plate containing the ancestors of all generations. It has been enshrined in the Ancestral Temple. He himself cannot see it when he is not worshiping his ancestors. How can he lend it to others to watch?
Song Yu did not speak again, but tried to use his spiritual power to contact the eldest princess who had just woken up.
After a while, the eldest princess sat up from the bed and looked at Zou Chang with tears in her eyes: "Father, this immortal chief saved my daughter?"
"Yes." When Zou Chang heard the eldest princess's voice, he had already forgotten the so-called ancestral teachings. He was just looking at it, so what's the point? "Don't worry, my father will not treat the two immortals badly."
After he finished speaking, he thought for a while, then turned back to look at Song Yu again and said, "My pearl has revived because of the blessing of my ancestors. It should be sacrificed to comfort the ancestors. Please ask the Immortal to accompany you when the time comes."
Song Yu responded: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Since it is a royal ancestor worship, it cannot be held directly. There are many procedures to go through. Zou Chang gave the Ministry of Rites seven days to prepare. Song Yu and Xie Nanshi were also arranged to stay temporarily in the embassy, waiting for the ceremony to end before leaving.
Naturally, Song Yu and Nanshi did not intend to waste these seven days in vain.
In the small courtyard of the embassy, Song Yu was lying lazily on a rocking chair, looking like he hadn't woken up: "Where are we going next?"
Xie Nanshi was practicing sword moves in the courtyard with a wooden sword in his hand. Hearing this, the sword moves in his hand kept pointing at Song Yu: "Longze secret realm, get the pure bottle."
Song Yu subconsciously leaned back to avoid the edge of the sword. This man adapted to his new body quickly, and he was able to use his sword energy again. "Longze Secret Realm will be opened on the ninth day of next month?"
Moreover, the entrance to Longze Secret Realm is far from the Imperial Capital. It seems that Xie Nanshi had already planned the distance when choosing the route.
Seeing Jie Nanshi nodding, Song Yu thought for a while and said, "In that case, let's get the purification bottle first, and then come back to get the soul lamp."
The soul lamp refers to the seven-star coiled dragon lamp. It is impossible to communicate and speak all the time when you are away from home, so it is safer to use some pronouns. As long as Song Yu locates the location of the Ancestral Temple, he can come back at any time to take away the Seven-Star Panlong Lantern. On the contrary, if you steal too early, it will easily alert the emperor of Dayan, and it will also be easy to associate them with them, which will cause endless troubles. Even though they come from Yunjian Mountain Gate, the Dayan Dynasty dominates the world's dragon veins, and I am afraid that Yunjian Mountain Gate will not be able to protect them by then.
Xie Nanshi paused and nodded in embarrassment. He was not used to stealing other people's belongings. Even though he was prepared to take the Soul Cup back by force from the beginning.
Generally speaking, only the royal clan can enter the Ancestral Temple, but Song Yu rescued the eldest princess, so he was tacitly allowed to follow the eldest princess into the Ancestral Temple. This was the result of Zou Chang's hard work, but Jie Nanshi could not follow him into the Ancestral Temple.
The eldest princess made a special trip out of the palace for this purpose, and shooed away the palace attendants around her. After they had gone away, she bowed to Song Yu and said, "I'm sorry, master."
Song Yu was startled and looked around subconsciously, fearing that a secret guard would jump out of nowhere and kill him for disrespecting the princess. "You are a princess. Don't call me master. If someone finds out, you will be in trouble. What happened at the Ancestral Temple is not your fault. Don't take it to heart."
Originally, Xie Nanshi did not need to enter the Ancestral Temple, as long as he went in and took a seat.
The eldest princess looked a little confused, but she still bowed respectfully: "Yes, sir, don't worry, no one will find out, and I will protect my master to the death."
Song Yu hissed and had a headache. This little princess obviously still retained a large part of the puzzle. Why did she seem to have completely turned into a puppet he drew?
Jie Nanshi saw the confusion in Song Yu's eyes and calmly comforted him: "People in this world have no souls."
Xie Nanshi has never felt that there is any difference between ordinary people in different planes, but he has personally witnessed the entire process of "creating something from nothing" in this world, and it is difficult to treat people in this world as real people.
Not doing some things is just part of his human nature, but he cannot treat the person in front of him as a full human being.
Song Yu thought about this for a while
The PC is just data, and what he "fills in" is no different from what is set in the game itself, so he feels at ease.
In the next few days, Song Yu and Xie Nanshi could hardly calm down and practice. Song Yu even vaguely felt the spiritual energy flowing in his body. This feeling was wonderful. After all, without the help of the game system to practice skills, this kind of experience can be given full marks. If it weren't for the third princess Zou Ye who often came over to make trouble - asking about Song Yu's medical skills; and if Yuan Fang didn't appear from time to time and took him to eat various delicacies, he might have really touched the threshold of breakthrough.
Everything went smoothly and the ancestor worship ceremony was held smoothly. Song Yu followed the eldest princess into the Ancestral Temple during the sacrifice and saw the seven-star dragon lamp. The soul lamp is placed in the middle of the Ancestral Temple, surrounded by a faint blue light, and is obviously protected by a formation.
While Song Yu was still thinking, he heard the eldest princess say: "There have been many traps set up around here. Please follow me closely and don't touch anything at will."
Hearing this, Song Yu frowned slightly. This was a bit difficult to do. He didn't know if the space gate could be selectively drawn directly to the inside of the formation, so that he could take the Seven Star Pan Dragon Cup and run away.
Song Yu intended to ask the eldest princess to explain more, but it was not convenient to be in the Ancestral Temple. He could only wait until he got out. In the remaining time, he followed the movements of everyone and completed all the ancestor worship rituals. He tried hard to write down the details of the formation in his mind, preparing to go back and tell Xie Nanshi everything in detail. When the time came, he would break the We still have to rely on him.
After the ancestor worship, a banquet was held in the palace, and the emperor noticed that his two daughters were secretly glancing at Song Yu.
Zou Chang looked thoughtful, his daughters have grown up. Moreover, Song Yu was his daughter's savior after all, he was refining spirits with the eldest princess and was the immortal master of Yunjian Mountain Gate, so marrying a daughter of the royal family was not considered a princess marriage.
But after all, Song Yu was not a court official, and he could not directly grant the marriage. After thinking about it, he asked Song Yu again if there was any reward he wanted, but he glanced at his eldest daughter unconsciously, which was full of implications.
Song Yu didn't notice Zou Chang's gaze, nor did he accept the reward: "The common people have achieved their wish, and we have nothing more to ask for. The two of us still have the mission of the Immortal Sect, and we also bid farewell to His Majesty today."
It's not that Song Yu is very upright, but he is still thinking about stealing other people's national treasures, and is too embarrassed to ask for any more rewards. What's more, he now has too much money to spend.
Xie Nanshi noticed Zou Chang's obscure gaze and originally wanted to remind Song Yu. But seeing Song Yu's confused response, he felt a little amused for no reason, so he suppressed his thoughts.
Zou Chang didn't seem to expect that Song Yu would refuse so simply. His expression looked a little regretful. He couldn't bear to leave such a wealthy son-in-law and just ran away. He opened his mouth and wanted to pull the string in public. But his third daughter, Zou Ye, suddenly stood up and said, "Father, my daughter wants to leave with Divine Doctor Song."
This time, not only Song Yu was stunned, but even Zou Chang was stunned for a moment, and said in a disapproving tone: "Ye'er, you are still young, and even if you like her... you can't..."
Zou Ye became anxious and jumped up from his seat to protest: "Father, what are you talking about! My daughter wants to become the disciple of Divine Doctor Song!"
This time, before Zou Chang could speak, Song Yu had already stood up and bowed, "Thank you for your love, princess, but I haven't even started training yet, so I'm not qualified to accept a disciple."
He didn't know if the Yunjian Mountain Sect had any threshold for accepting disciples, but even if it were there, he wouldn't be able to take the third princess of Dayan into his sect and let her leave with him! Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible to take someone else's princess with him when he sneaks to the Dayan Temple to steal things in the future?
Zou Ye was stunned. She didn't expect that she was also a princess of the Dayan Dynasty and was born noble. Now she condescended to take the initiative to become a disciple of a young man, and she was rejected?
However, before Zou Ye could get angry, Zou Yuan had already stood up and bowed to the high-ranking emperor Yingying: "Father, Mr. Song has saved my daughter's life. My daughter wants to follow you."
Song Yu was numb. He could feel the murderous gaze of Emperor Dayan looking over him without turning his head. He had only been in the imperial capital for a few days, and he immediately kidnapped two princesses. One of them was the eldest princess he loved most and was reluctant to let her leave the palace, and the other was no more than the age of the prince. If Zou Chang didn't get angry directly, it was probably because of it. For the sake of him curing the eldest princess.
"What do you think, Master Song?" Zou Chang's tone this time was somewhat dissatisfied.
I don't think so. Song Yu silently suppressed the complaints in his heart.
Song Yu didn't really want to answer this kind of proposition, but seeing that the banquet was full of people waiting, he could only leave the banquet and come to the middle seat, and saluted the emperor of Dayan: "My junior brother and I are here to serve you. The master has been ordered to go out for training, and I don’t know how risky the journey ahead is, so it’s really not convenient to drag the princess down.”
Zou Chang's face softened slightly: "Then where is the Immortal going to go next?"
"The two of us are going to go to the Longze Secret Realm." When the Longze Secret Realm opens, all the monks from all over the world will gather together. Since they are from Yunjian Mountain Sect, it is normal for them to join in the fun. There is no need to hide this matter.
Zou Chang nodded and his expression softened a little. He originally had the intention of marrying a daughter, but he became dissatisfied after being stimulated by his two daughters. Now that he calmed down, he felt that although Song Yu was an immortal, his behavior was quite decent, and his daughter did have good taste.
He thought for a while and said: "The Dayan clan also has children who are going to the Longze Secret Realm. If the two immortal elders don't mind it, how about they go with the clan's dragon boat?"
Song Yu was originally worried about how they would go about their journey since the crane had been released to the sect, but when he fell asleep, he was given a pillow. He immediately said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Seeing Song Yu agree, Zou Chang smiled a little more. It was not a good thing to refuse the emperor's gift again and again. Even the immortal master is the same.
