The cold air was raging, but Bixiazi didn't care. She stepped forward slowly, leaping into the air step by step, and reached out her hand to pick the golden flower core. She was shrouded in magnificent brilliance, with a flexible waist and fluttering clothes. She seemed like a fairy descending to earth - no, she was a fairy! Shen Yuanqiong had no reason to feel ashamed. The child bride in his previous life had waited for him countless reincarnations without changing his infatuation. How could he be so virtuous and able to withstand the grace of a beautiful woman? Thinking of this, he felt uneasy.
A roar of filial piety suddenly sounded from the top of the mountain, like a thunderbolt, shaking the earth and shaking the mountains, and the strong wind was raging. Shen Yuanqiong was taken aback and shouted: "No, a ferocious beast is coming!" Before he could finish his words, a ferocious monster jumped down the mountain. It bared its teeth and claws, showed a fierce look in its eyes, and roared filial piety towards Bixiazi.
How could the legendary treasure of the Immortal Family not be protected by a powerful demon? Shen Yuanqiong was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. After running for a few steps, he stopped and said to himself in a trembling voice: "I can't leave Bixiazi behind! I...I want a hero to save the beauty!" But deep inside, there was another person. But the voice said: "What qualifications do you have to save her? You can't even save yourself, you just died in vain!"
Shen Yuanqiong's legs and feet were so weak that he couldn't even take a step forward. He turned around tremblingly, only to see the demonic beast turning its face to flattery, lying at Bixiazi's feet like a kitten, stretching its head and neck to rub against her legs. Damn, it seems to be her well-raised pet. Bixiazi noticed his gaffe, a look of contempt flashed across her pretty face, and then she recovered her smile, nodded to Shen Yuanqiong and said, "Don't panic, Mr. Lang, this Pixiu is the master's mount, and it stays in Luohua." The island has been with me for hundreds of years. Master ordered it to guard the Stone Heart Flower to prevent it from being harvested by female stemmen to do bad things. Don’t worry, Pixiu looks scary, but actually has a very gentle temperament."
Shen Yuanqiong read a lot of miscellaneous books. According to the records in the book, Pixiu is one of the five auspicious beasts in the legend. It is as famous as the dragon, phoenix, turtle, and unicorn. Its body is like a tiger and leopard, its head and tail are like a dragon, its color is gold and jade, and it has one horn. , has two horns, one horn is called "Tianlu", and the other horn is called "evil evil". Because it has no eyes, gold and silver can only enter but not come out, so it is regarded as a lucky beast.
That brave animal had two hard horns, which were called "exorcisms." He didn't know whether he really had no horns, but at this moment, Shen Yuanqiong felt extremely ashamed and wished he had a place.
As he drilled the hole, Bixiazi's fleeting contempt stung his heart, and his grudge grew unknowingly. He mustered up the courage to step forward. Pixiu opened his big copper bell-like eyes, growled ferociously, and made love to Bixiazi. He walked around her and sniffed her body from time to time. Floral. Bixiazi seemed to be tickled by her beard. She pushed it away with a coquettish smile and said, "Don't be ridiculous. I have something important to do. I'll play with you later!"
Pixiu did not dare to disobey, so he ran to the side angrily, resting his huge head on his front paws, and looked at Shen Yuanqiong with eager eyes, as if he would pounce on him at any time. Shen Yuanqiong was heartbroken and deliberately did not look at it. He focused on Bixiazi, but saw that she stretched her arms to pick the flower cores, and her sleeves slipped down, revealing her arms as white as jade. Shen Yuanqiong suddenly remembered the lyrics in the opera: "The people beside the mountain are like the moon, their bright wrists are covered with frost and snow. A bent Western arm, a heart with seven orifices."
Bixiazi had an exquisite heart. She saw through Shen Yuanqiong's character, but she concealed it well and did not reveal it. Shen Yuanqiong is just a wealthy businessman, an ordinary person. Although he is not a bad person, he is not good at all. She wants to take this opportunity to cut off the fetters, end the worldly fate, and follow the master to ascend to heaven. As for Shen Yuanqiong, if he stays on Luohua Island and becomes a ghost immortal, guarding the dojo for his master and enjoys eternal life, it is worthy of him.
Bixiazi picked and picked more than ten stone heart flower cores, put away the magic and opened the spring, and the ice beads spewed out again, like a mess of jade. The vitality of the stone-heart flower was severely damaged, the petals were folded together, the edges turned from white to gray, and were covered with a layer of black air. Like the tip of a pen dipped in ink, it tremblingly retracted into the stone cave. Bixiazi sighed, returned to Shen Yuanqiong, spread out her palms, and saw golden flower cores standing upright, slender and cute, reminiscent of... bean sprouts!
"The stone heart flower only blooms once in five hundred years, and it only lasts for more than ten days. You are here by chance. If you miss it, I don't know how long you will have to wait. The core of the flower is the essence of the flower. It is a pity that the medicine will be lost if it is delayed for too long. Let's go back to combine the medicine quickly, so as not to What a waste of the treasures of the Immortal Family!" Bixiazi pulled Shen Yuanqiong's sleeves, turned around and gestured to Pixiu, telling him to follow.
Pixiu was full of spirituality. He jumped up excitedly, shook his body, and trotted behind Bixiazi. state
Yuan Qiong was a little worried. He looked back frequently and looked at it. After several times, he couldn't help but ask Bixiazi: "Why is it following us?"
Bixiazi said: "Pick the core of the Stone Heart Flower and put it into the stone cave. It will have to wait another five hundred years to regain its vitality. Pixiu will have nothing to do if he stays here. Why not come back with us to be a companion? It will protect you when refining the medicine. I will I feel more at ease."
Shen Yuanqiong was startled for a moment. Pixiu was quite hostile to him. It was not a pleasant experience to stay under the same roof with such a ferocious beast. At the very least, it was patrolling outside the house and roaring from time to time. Does he still have the heart to sleep with Bixiazi? But Shen Yuanqiong didn't say anything. There was no doubt that Bixiazi would not listen to his advice. In her mind, that Pixiu was far more reliable than her husband in the previous life.
He was just a dirty businessman who reeked of copper, and was just an unfinished fate on her path to spiritual practice!
Returning to Qingxiu's residence, Bixiazi pinched the magic formula, and flowers and trees surrounded her in layers, covering the sky and the sun, turning into an impregnable magic circle. The courtyard is dark and lightless, and the mountain stream flows by, reflecting the moonlight and starlight, like a dream. Bixiazi took out a small bronze cauldron from the quiet room and carefully placed it beside the mountain stream. It was set up with three white stones. The cauldron was simple in style, with talismans engraved on the whole body. It shone in the starlight like a twisting snake.
With a sweep of Pixiu's long tail, a strong wind blew up, blowing off countless petals from the branches, gathering them into piles, rolling and compacting them, as colorful as a hydrangea. Bixiazi smiled and touched its head and praised it a few times. Pixiu narrowed his eyes and shook his head with great pride. This human beast actually knows how to be courteous in front of Bixiazi!
Everything was ready. Bixiazi's expression was solemn, her lips moved, and she muttered something. Suddenly she let out a light scold, and the cauldron lid leaped into the air, spinning non-stop. After a while, she let go of her hand. , the stone heart flower core turned into more than ten golden lights, and rushed into the cauldron. There was a soft sound of "Buzz", and colorful rays of light rose into the sky. The cold air centered on the bronze tripod and spread rapidly in all directions. The ground under the feet was white and cracked, as hard as ice, and the water vapor condensed into frost and fell silently.
Shen Yuanqiong took a few steps back and watched Bixiazi's every move attentively.
