Chapter 12 Life is not easy, ginger wine sighs
Jiang Jiu returned to Qingyun Peak and thought for a long time before she figured out why Yu Zimo had come to her specifically to thank her.
He was born with ghostly aura, and anyone who came into contact with him would be unlucky.
It was just that before the age of 14, he was accidentally suppressed by a gold-patterned jade pendant and did not show any signs of abnormality.
His father was a prince of the imperial city on earth, but he was devoted to his mother all his life. He was also the eldest son in the family and was spoiled by the Crown Princess since he was a child.
He is the handsome prince of the imperial city who is as charming as Pan An. The women who love him can line up from the imperial city to the next city. He is so proud of himself.
But later, as he grew older, the spiritual energy stored in the gold-patterned jade pendant was consumed by the large amount of dissipated ghost energy.
The balance could not be maintained and accidents happened frequently in the Prince's Palace.
In the end, the prince was implicated and his entire family was executed on false charges. Only he survived by being replaced by a slave.
But he fell to the bottom overnight.
He didn't dare reveal his identity, so he could only survive in a dilapidated temple and beg for a living like a beggar.
He was once blind because other beggars accidentally discovered his handsome appearance and tricked him into eating poisonous fruit, which caused him to become blind overnight.
It's just that he had too much resentment after death, and he was born with ghost bones, so his eyes only recovered after he was resurrected.
Because his death was so painful, the resentment always lingered in his body and could not be eliminated.
It would rush around in his body on certain days.
But because of her arrival, a strange phenomenon that did not originally exist in the plot was triggered.
By accident, the original, pure and clean chaotic purple energy just neutralized the resentment in his body.
That's why he came to thank you.
Jiang Jiu has a very deep memory of this plot. In the game, Yu Zimo narrated the suffering he had suffered in a very gentle voice.
I think she felt very distressed at first.
Not only was he blind, but he was also charged with a crime and could only live like a rat in the gutter. It is easy to imagine what he encountered. Hunger and beatings were commonplace.
"well."
Jiang Jiu sighed silently.
Thinking of the hurt and painful expression on his face when he said he knew it was the ghost spirit that implicated his family, Jiang Jiu inexplicably felt a little bit sorry for it.
He said that he regarded these grievances as atonement for his family, and if he had not been born, everyone in the prince's mansion would have lived a good life.
As long as he's not there.
However, Jiang Jiu quickly calmed down, as she was now the vicious female supporting role.
Empathy for the protagonist is a big taboo.
But don't forget that Yu Zimo will tear out the bones of the heroine in the future because of her, which is scary.
...
The next morning, Jiang Jiu got out of bed with big dark circles under his eyes.
Last night she was twisted like a maggot in bed and couldn't think of a solution.
She broke a piece of stone. Will she be killed by the elders later?
Spiritual mother and child stones are very precious, and each child stone costs a lot of money to make.
She was a little panicked.
While sitting on the crane's back, Jiang Jiu was wondering why she had caused such strange phenomena in heaven and earth.
This doesn't seem to be in the plot.
Even the Goddess of Pure Branches could not cause such a terrifying phenomenon before her bloodline was fully awakened.
At most, it is more attractive to small animals and plants.
This is different from what we agreed upon.
"well."
Life is not easy, Jiangjiu sighed.
Perhaps because they were worried that Jiang Jiu might cause trouble again today, they even moved the spirit-testing ceremony forward by an hour.
"Thanks to my junior sister, I broke through to a great realm yesterday."
"I heard that Junior Sister seemed to have crushed the stone with her bare hands. That thing is extremely hard and can withstand the full force of a Spiritual Transformation Stage cultivator."
"Now you believe it, Junior Sister must have reached the Void Refinement Stage."
"I feel it should be higher, and there was no thunder tribulation yesterday. Only people with great merit will not be baptized by thunder tribulation. I'm afraid that my junior sister is about to ascend."
Jiang Jiu deliberately chose a secluded path, for fear of running into other people.
What happened yesterday pushed her to the forefront. As a person with extreme social anxiety, she wished she could crawl into the ground today.
The result was such ridiculous remarks.
Jiang Jiu felt unwell.
Just as she was trying to overcome her social anxiety and wanted to come out from behind the tree to explain to them, those disciples said something shocking again.
"If I could talk to Junior Sister, I would definitely thank her with all the spirit stones I have."
"Me too, me too. If I don't break through soon, my life will be over."
"Junior Sister really saved my life. Not only will I give her the spirit stone, I will also kneel down and kowtow to her to thank her for saving my life."
Jiang Jiu's pupils trembled after hearing this.
“???”
Asking an old disciple who was who knows how many years older than her to kneel down and kowtow to her?!
She had to pay back all the good deeds she had accumulated since she was a child, such as helping old ladies cross the road and handing over the money she found to the police.
This is simply alarmist!
"Forget it, forget it. I have to test my cultivation level later anyway. When they see that I'm only at the Foundation Establishment stage, the rumors will be self-defeating."
Jiang Jiu retracted his peeking little head and patted his chest to comfort himself.
Jiang Jiu waited until everyone had left before tiptoeing out of the path.
Afraid of being seen accidentally, I kowtowed to her.
"It's really scary."
Jiang Jiu wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead.
Because she took a long detour, by the time she arrived at the training square, almost all the disciples had already gathered.
As soon as she appeared, everyone turned their heads to look at her. The scene was a bit weird.
Jiang Jiu's face was so paralyzed that he couldn't even move the corners of his mouth, let alone speak.
Fortunately, Ji Chen and a group of elders were right in front of the square this time, so Jiang Jiu didn't have to listen to those outrageous rumors.
The reason why they were not in the Jueyun Temple was simple: they were also very curious about ginger wine.
Ji Chen's brown eyes, as clear as glass, swept over the crowd indifferently, like a god looking down at mortals, high above, holy and cold.
"Come to me."
Ji Chen's gaze finally fell on Jiang Jiu. His thin lips slightly opened, and his pleasant voice entered Jiang Jiu's ears, making her feel numb and a little itchy, as if he was leaning over and talking in her ear.
Jiang Jiu looked at Ji Chen silently and took two seconds to confirm whether he was talking to her.
The answer is of course 'Yes, it's you'.
Jiang Jiu was wailing in his heart but didn't show it on the surface. He walked steadily to Ji Chen's side.
Of course, the stability and everything are all fake.
"Are you going to criticize me? It's just breaking a rock, don't be so rude to me in front of so many people."
"I'm so scared. What should I do? Is it too late to apologize now?"
"But I can't open my mouth! It's like it's stuck shut with glue, and my vocal cords are on strike."
Jiang Jiu really wanted to beg for mercy with his eyes, but his facial paralysis was useless and he couldn't show any expression at all.
However, unlike what she had imagined, Ji Chen simply kept her by his side and had no intention of scolding her.
The elders kept their gazes on Jiang Jiu, which made him feel uncomfortable.
but....
Jiang Jiu stole a glance at Ji Chen, with an unreasonable suspicion in his mind.
He wouldn't come down just to help me get out of trouble, right?
"The spirit-testing ritual continues."
As the servant beside Ji Chen finished speaking, Zi Shi came to each person in order.
Except ginger wine.
There was nothing in front of her.
Jiang Jiu confirmed it three or four times before looking up at the Jueyun Temple in despair. The mother stone among the mother and child stones was placed there.
'Is there a possibility that I was left behind?'
"Or is this the only stone you need?"
