Chapter 75: A Carefree and Romantic Journey among Flowers · Part 3

Xiao Hao maintained a good-tempered smile, looking at Lu Miaozi with an innocent face.

Lu Miaozi clutched the relic, feeling disappointed and helpless: "I have long known that the disciples of Huajian Sect are proud and elegant, proficient in calligraphy and painting, and often seem out of place compared to the vulgarity of other sects. I originally thought that among this demon sect, Huajian Sect is the least likely to cause trouble to me."

He also had a deep friendship with the current generation of the Huajian Sect. With that person's amazing talent, if Huajian Sect wanted to make a move, they would have taken the relic away long ago. Because of this, Lu Miaozi has always had some good feelings towards Huajian Sect, which did not pursue him as relentlessly as others.

However, Xiao Hao suddenly confessed his master, and Lu Miaozi felt very uncomfortable with the feeling of being betrayed.

After all, Huajian Sect is not the world of one person. If he doesn't come to grab it, it doesn't mean that others won't take action.

Lu Miaozi's mood is very complicated. She admired Xiao Hao's design, but she was also very sad that he approached her for the evil emperor's relic.

Xiao Hao chuckled in his heart and said kindly: "Is there any misunderstanding, sir?"

How could Lu Miaozi be willing to accept that the elegant and gentle young man in front of him had other purposes? He stood aside vigilantly and said melancholy: "Sir, you took great pains to lead me into the valley. I admire your hand. If you hadn't led the way, I don't think I could get out of this Valley of Flowers. You trapped me here just for the evil emperor's relic?" At this time, he became defensive and began to doubt whether there was something wrong with the tea he had just drunk.

Xiao Hao looked at him with a smile, took a sip of tea and said, "I really don't understand what you are talking about. My sect is called 'Wanhua Valley'. Although Wanhua has also recruited many celebrities and gathered hundreds of strange people, there is only one disciple left in the world now. It seems to be different from the Demon Sect you mentioned."

Seeing his calm expression, Lu Miaozi relaxed a little and asked hesitantly, "What is the mental method you practiced called?"

Xiao Hao said, "Flower Wandering."

"..." Lu Miaozi was a little at a loss for what to do with his cooperative answer. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether this man was deceiving him to gain his trust, or if he really had been in seclusion for a long time and was accidentally discovered by him. "Sir, do you know that the Demon Sect's supreme skill "Heavenly Demon Strategy" and the mental method passed down in the Huajian School are called Flower Wandering."

"Oh?" Xiao Hao smiled kindly, "In that case, we are destined to meet each other."

Lu Miaozi carefully observed him for a long time, and seeing that he had no hostile intentions and did not seem to be faking it, he sighed, sat back in his seat, and said apologetically, "Sir, please don't blame me... I have been fleeing all the way, and I feel every bush and tree is an enemy. The evil emperor's relic is very important. Since I have been entrusted with it, I must ensure that it is safe. When I first heard the word 'Huajian', I could hardly control myself, for fear that I had fallen into a trap..."

Xiao Hao nodded in understanding, "It's okay, I don't take it to heart."

Seeing how magnanimous Lu Miaozi was, he felt even more ashamed. People invited him into the valley and helped him hide his whereabouts, but he still speculated on the intentions of this elegant gentleman with a mean heart. It was really too much. During

this period, he was so nervous that he could not distinguish between good and bad people because he had been dealing with

all kinds of tricks of the demon sect disciples. "Sir, you are willing to take me in, but I still doubt you... Well, I have no way to repay you. I only have a little insignificant skill, so I will help you to repair the natural mechanism in this valley, which is also a token of my gratitude."

Xiao Hao was naturally happy. Lu Miaozi was a world-famous master of mechanism invention. He hoped that Lu Miaozi could make more things in Wanhua Valley.

However, the evil emperor's relic is indeed a trouble... I have to find a way to deal with it properly.

Xiao Hao secretly thought, I don't know which one is better, this thing or the helicopter pill.

Since the system gave him such a valley, it must be helping him. Now that Lu Miaozi is in his valley and outsiders are looking for Lu Miaozi everywhere, Xiao Hao has some plans in mind.

This little one is pitiful, but in the early stage, he can indeed find another way to brush up his status.

As the saying goes, "I am not in the world, but there are legends about me everywhere in the world", isn't it good? It can also save him from doing it himself.

"You are welcome to do whatever you want. I have plenty of free time in this valley. If you need anything, just let me know. We are destined to meet and I will do my best to help."

Lu Miaozi was extremely grateful and said to Xiao Hao, "I can't express my gratitude enough. I just want to say thank you!"

He then thought of what Xiao Hao said about his master and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Wanhua is your master. How did he get his origin?"

Xiao Hao was slightly startled. Lu Miaozi was a character in the Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty. He was only a young man in his thirties. I think it was the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, not to mention the Tang Dynasty. The origin of Wanhua... is really a bunch of nonsense.

He then said, "During the period of the Two Jin Dynasties, the leader established the Wanhua Valley. He admired the noble and elegant style of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and lived in seclusion in Wanhua with many celebrities who were tired of the life in the martial arts world and the treacherous officialdom. Later, the leader often secretly invited extraordinary people from all over the world to play chess, drink tea, and play the piano together. All kinds of miscellaneous studies in the Wanhua Valley originated from this. The leader did not like to intervene in worldly affairs, so his disciples all lived in seclusion, so they had little reputation in the world."

Lu Miaozi pondered for a while, and suddenly he realized, "So that's it!"

During the Two Jin Dynasties, the Demon Sect Saint Mu Qingliu came from the Huajian School. He was very smart and martial arts. It is very possible that he secretly created such a talented sect like the Wanhua Valley! I heard that the saintly king changed his name to Mu Qingliu because he admired the pure style of the Jin Dynasty. Xiao Hao's description is very accurate in terms of time and people!

In this case, it is not surprising that the martial arts of Tianmo Ce are circulated in Wanhua Valley.

However, it seems that Wanhua Valley has been out of touch with worldly affairs for a long time, and it should no longer be classified as one of the two sects of the Demon Sect and the Six Paths.

Lu Miaozi couldn't help but have an idea in his mind.

The evil emperor's relic must not fall into the hands of Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Chanyuan, but there is no one in the Demon Sect that he can trust. Xiao Hao's Wanhua Valley... is of the same origin as the Demon Sect and is far away from disputes. If the evil emperor's relic is handed over to him... maybe it won't be a disappointment to Xiang Yutian's dying wish.

Xiao Hao found him immersed in his own thoughts for a long time and found it a little funny. Then he thought for a moment and said, "According to what you just said, the world now regards Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism as the orthodox schools. The ideas and thoughts of the other three religions and nine schools are all attributed to the devil. Although Wanhua Valley also studies Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism and Legalism, it also dabbles in Zongheng Jinglüe, Zhuang Zhou, Yang Zhu, and the famous Huizi, and does not exclude them. In this way, it seems that in terms of inclusiveness, it is more comprehensive. "I lean towards the Demon Sect."

Lu Miaozi came back to his senses and immediately said, "The sea of ​​​​Wanhua Valley embraces all rivers, and it should be independent of the righteous path and the Demon Sect."

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Xiao Hao was a very suitable place. Finally, he couldn't help asking Xiao Hao, "Sir, you know the importance of the evil emperor's relic in my hand. If you get it, you can even influence the situation of the world's Taoism. I don't know how to deal with it properly. Can I be brave enough... to entrust it to you?"

"..." Xiao Hao really couldn't figure out the train of thought of this world's number one genius. Just now he was protecting it like a big deal, but in the blink of an eye he was going to give it to him. He didn't want to take this hot potato at all.

"Since it is the last trust of the senior, isn't it too hasty to hand it over to someone you have only met once?"

After hearing what he said, Lu Miaozi completely trusted this recluse who had been away from the world. If Xiao Hao accepted it easily, he would still be suspicious, but he refused it and always thought about himself, which made it clear that he had no intention of the evil emperor's relic.

"Sir, you are so kind! But..."

Xiao Hao was afraid that he would give the crystal ball to him right away, so he quickly said, "If you are really worried, you might as well put it in a place that is difficult for people in the world to get. Then someone with ability can take it, and who will get it will be decided by fate."

Lu Miaozi paused for a moment, lowered his head and thought, and said after a while, "What you said is not wrong..."

After all, it was the rotten stall of the Demon Sect, and it was not a solution for him to run around for it. It would be easier to let them fight each other.

[Ding! Your friendship with the hero Lu Miaozi has reached the level of "I regret not meeting you earlier". 】

"There is Qianji Pavilion built near the Xingtan in the south of the valley, and Tiangongfang is also there. If you are interested in the art of mechanical wooden armor, you can go there to take a look. The flowers and plants I planted in Qingzhe Sea still need to be taken care of, so I won’t bother you to study the art of mechanical engineering."

Lu Miaozi's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Thank you for your generosity, sir!"

*

Lu Miaozi was really a studious person. The mechanical wooden armors from Tiangongfang were like treasures in his eyes. He forgot to eat and sleep and held on to them and refused to let go. He stayed in Qianji Pavilion for more than ten days. If Xiao Hao hadn't brought him meals every day, he would have starved to death here without knowing it.

Xiao Hao's superb cooking skills also conquered Lu Miaozi's stomach. Lu Miaozi looked at him as if he were a god, and felt that he was an all-rounder who could do anything.

Xiao Hao put on a faint smile and said humbly: "Your brilliant ideas are

far inferior to mine. There is no need to be so self-deprecating." Lu Miaozi patted the puppet's round body and said: "The more I study the mechanisms in this valley, the more I feel that my knowledge is shallow. The mechanisms in the valley are unprecedented in the outside world. The two Jin dynasties have only been together for more than two hundred years. These mechas are so new that they must be made by you."

Xiao Hao explained casually: "I'm just making them according to the drawings of my predecessors to pass the time."

Lu Miaozi didn't think so. He had also read various books on the techniques of the outside world's mechanisms, but had never seen anything like it, especially the ladder to heaven with three stars looking at the moon. These things were built very recently. Xiao Hao himself said that the machine that moved mountains and seas in the Valley of Flowers was built in recent years. He was the only one in the Valley of Flowers. Although he may not have started the construction personally, the design must have come from his hands.

How could there be such a perfect person in the world? After spending these days together, he found that Xiao Hao was not only proficient in machine building, but also dabbled in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. His knowledge of various talents and knowledge was extremely erudite, far beyond Lu Miaozi's imagination.

It is said that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but this man doesn't even miss out on cooking!

He looks like a young man, but is all the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered in this person?

A system prompt rang in Xiao Hao's ears. He calmly packed up the dishes and said to Lu Miaozi, "There are still plants and trees in Luoxing Lake to take care of, so I won't bother you any more."

Lu Miaozi then praised him and respectfully sent him away.

As soon as Xiao Hao walked out of his sight, he immediately used his great lightness skills to fly towards the valley entrance. The grass and trees near Xiaoyao Forest were lying all over the ground, obviously destroyed by humans. He found the man's name in the target list, followed the map instructions and landed leisurely, stopped in front of the red name that was venting everywhere and said:

"Miss, you came uninvited and are so angry. Did my Wanhua Valley offend you in any way?"
