"This, this is..."
Not only the Jade Emperor, but everyone else also set their eyes on the painting, their eyes suddenly fixed, and their hearts pounded.
In the picture, it was obviously a huge sea area. The sea water was not turbulent, but extremely calm and peaceful, as clear as a mirror. Nothing else could be seen in the sea, only a huge figure lying across the middle of the sea.
The figure looked like a whale, too big, with wide fins spread out on both sides like wings. Although only a head protruded from the sea water, the front half of the body alone was already beyond imagination. Huge, as if a mouth could swallow the whole world.
"Moo——"
A faint cry reached everyone's ears.
A terrifying aura emanated from that figure, accompanied by a pressure like the sea water, which slapped on everyone's body. This feeling... was like a strong wind blowing directly at the Buddha, making it hard for people to breathe.
This was not the whole painting. There was also a huge flying bird above the sea!
This bird was equally huge. Even with the sea as the background, it could highlight its hugeness. Its wings were spread high, covering the sky and blocking the sun. With the sea as its neighbor, its wings were like clouds hanging from the sky. The big fish
in the sea and the eagle in the sky, separated by the sea water, were like a mirror. The reflection of the fish was the bird, and the reflection of the bird was the fish.
Not like.
As the crowd looked at the painting, they could sense that the bird and the fish had the same aura. The master had obviously painted them as the same creature, and... as they stared at it for a long time, the sea water in the painting seemed to begin to ripple.
The big fish in the sea flapped its fins and jumped out of the painting. Its huge body was dazzling, gliding over the heads of the crowd like a mountain. The waves formed a series of arches, which was spectacular.
Li Nianfan smiled and said, "What do you think of this painting?"
As soon as he said this, all the strange visions disappeared, and the crowd was startled and came back to their senses.
"So beautiful, so magnificent." The Jade Emperor exclaimed without hesitation, then licked his lips and said, "Is the Holy Lord painting Kun...Kunpeng?"
"Your Majesty has a sharp eye! If you have such an idea, I will just draw it casually, and I don't know if it looks like it." Li Nianfan laughed, "It's just that I suddenly had a whim, and my hands were itching, so I drew it. I haven't touched the chain for a long time, and my painting skills have regressed a bit. Please don't laugh at me."
In fact, this painting was not started today, but three days ago, because I had nothing to do in the courtyard, and I thought of Huo Feng. I thought that the unification of the demon clan might have to do with Kun Peng, and when I thought of Kun Peng, I naturally thought of the poem Xiao Yao You. That's why my skills were itching, and I was going to draw the legendary Kun Peng based on Xiao Yao You.
The Queen Mother waved her hands quickly. She was so shocked that she was twitching inside, but she couldn't show it on her face. She said in a complicated voice, "Your Excellency the Holy Lord is joking. How could we possibly laugh at you..."
It's already been painted like this, and you still say that your painting skills have declined? You are being modest on purpose, right? This can't be true.
"Little Daji finally knows how to come back." Li Nianfan looked at Daji and immediately showed a friendly smile. Then his eyes could not help but fall on the little fox in Daji's arms. He said in surprise: "Hey, the little fox is back too. Come and give it to me to hug. Wow, this body is softer and warmer."
But soon he found something unusual and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Why do you look listless?"
He looked at Daji again and found that her face was pale, and there was hard-to-conceal fatigue in her eyes, and even bloodshot. Looking at the others, they all looked listless and a little weak.
Especially Xiao Chengfeng, he had obviously been carefully groomed before coming, but it was still difficult to hide his sluggish eyes. Between his eyebrows, it was almost written that I can't walk fast.
Li Nianfan was proficient in medicine after all, so he could see this most basic thing. He immediately said, "You are all in bad condition? Did you... fight with someone?"
He figured it out in a flash. This group of people came here today by chance. Most likely, they just had a fight and then followed Daji here.
And what could make Daji and others fight? It is very likely related to the demon clan.
When Daji saw Li Nianfan looking at her, she immediately calculated with her nose, and whispered with red eyes, "Sir, we failed..."
Sure enough.
This group of people wanted to unify the demon clan, but unfortunately they died halfway.
"It's ok, it's not a big deal, as long as you are fine, as the saying goes, if you keep the green mountains, you will not be afraid of running out of firewood." Li Nianfan gently rubbed Daji's nose, comforted her, and then smiled and held her hand to start taking her pulse.
"The breath is disordered, and the blood is empty." Li Nianfan breathed a sigh of relief. It was just too weak, and it seemed that there were injuries, but it was far from life-threatening. Just cultivate more and replenish the blood.
The world of cultivation is still too dangerous. Li Nianfan felt distressed, but he was mentally prepared. He expected that it would be too difficult to be unscathed.
He looked at Xiao Chengfeng again and asked with concern: "Mr. Xiao, your injuries seem to be serious. How do you feel?"
Xiao Chengfeng smiled in surprise and said: "It's okay, it's no problem, I can live... cough cough cough——"
Li Nianfan saw him wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his heart sank immediately. The blood was dark and a little messy. This must be damage to the internal organs.
For a great immortal to become like this, the injuries must be extremely serious.
Moreover, this time even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother came, and they were able to intervene in the battle... Li Nianfan could already imagine how tragic it was at that time.
His face darkened slightly, and he said in a heavy voice, "Is it because of Master Kunpeng?"
"Yes." Huofeng said, "Not long ago, Master Kunpeng gathered a large number of demons and prepared to unify the demon world by force. This time, we really have to thank the help of the people in Tiangong, otherwise Xiao Daji and I would definitely not be able to cope with it."
"It's really Kunpeng, that's really terrible."
Li Nianfan took a deep breath slowly, and couldn't help feeling a little scared in his heart. That was a powerful being that existed in the prehistoric period, a quasi-saint peak. In his eyes, he and others were just ants. It was a close call, and he almost couldn't see Xiao Daji.
No wonder he had the urge to draw Kunpeng recently. Could it be that this was a feeling in his heart?
He immediately bowed to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, and thanked them sincerely, "Thank you so much, Your
Majesty and Queen Mother. If it weren't for your care, I can't imagine the consequences." The Jade Emperor returned the greeting and said, "Your Excellency is too polite. This is our responsibility. Moreover, the Kunpeng Patriarch has evil ambitions. We are also helping ourselves."
"No matter what, thank you very much." Li Nianfan could hear that this was definitely a humble word.
If he hadn't said hello in advance, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother would never care about the life and death of a small character like Daji.
It's really important to hold on to the big boss's thighs.
"By the way, what are you all standing for? Hurry up and sit down."
Li Nianfan greeted them enthusiastically, "You all came at the right time. The peaches planted in the backyard not long ago are just ripe. They are sweeter than the usual fruits. You must taste them. Xiaobai, go and prepare them."
"Yes, sir." Xiaobai immediately took the order.
Peaches?
It can't be...
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at each other, and then Xiaobai came over with a tray.
Immediately, his whole body was shocked, as if struck by lightning.
On the tray, there were three plates, each containing a round peach. The peach was as soft as jade, emitting a radiant glow in the sunlight, and seemed to be wrapped in a layer of sunlight, making people dizzy.
A stream of magical breath accompanied by the fragrance of peaches penetrated into people's minds, making everyone feel refreshed and light, as if they had suddenly become ten thousand years younger.
Among all the people present, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother reacted most intensely, breathing rapidly, their faces instantly flushed with excitement, and their eyes were fixed on the peaches, wishing they could stick their eyeballs on them.
The peaches are really the peaches!
They shouted in their hearts, their throats rolling uncontrollably, and their lips trembling.
To them in the past, peaches were nothing more than a normal thing, but to them now, peaches are a luxury and represent distant memories. It has been so many years that they seem to have forgotten the taste of peaches.
I remember the last time I saw peaches, it seemed to be in a dream. This time... it was also too dreamy.
The Queen Mother sniffed and secretly turned her head to wipe away the tears that were about to overflow from the corners of her eyes. She was the manager of the Peach Garden in the past, and her feelings for peaches were much deeper than those of the Jade Emperor.
He hurriedly took a deep breath, trying his best to stay calm, and kept hypnotizing himself, "Calm down, you must swallow your tears, you can't be rude in front of the master, peaches, this is a peach."
"This, this is..."
Ao Cheng swallowed his saliva, stared blankly at the plate of peaches placed in front of him, and stammered: "Peach... peach?"
It was definitely peaches.
He was just a little dragon back then, and had no qualifications to participate in the peach banquet, but he also took a look from a distance, and naturally had a deep impression of peaches, which could be said to be something he had always dreamed of.
At that time, his deepest dream was... being able to eat a peach was the pinnacle of a dragon's life.
Later, when the heaven and earth were connected, eating the peaches became even more of a luxury. I dared not even dream that one day it would be placed in front of me, allowing me to taste it.
The master must be satisfied with the actions of me and others in saving Miss Daji, so he was willing to take it out for everyone to eat. Otherwise, forget about eating it, and the corpse is estimated to be cold.
Li Nianfan urged: "Don't be stunned, everyone, eat it quickly and taste how it tastes."
"Hey, let's eat it now."
Everyone did not dare to neglect it, and immediately each of them took a peach and started eating.
I have to say that this peach is really big. It feels hard to hold it in one hand. But it is so big that it is very enjoyable to eat. In addition, the peach is neither soft nor hard, and has a moderate taste. When you hold it and bite it, the peach skin is like a layer of membrane being bitten through with a "pop". Then, as if a dam has burst, a large amount of juice splashes out and shoots directly into your mouth.
The sweet juice occupies the mouth, and immediately makes people feel an indescribable satisfaction and enjoyment.
This is the taste of peach, but in addition to it, there is an indescribable taste that transcends the mundane world and cannot be described in words.
If you have to describe it, only the most simple and unpretentious two words can express it: delicious!
After this delicious taste, there was an incomparable breath of life that began to spread throughout the body along with the peach juice that everyone swallowed, just like soaking in a hot spring, making everyone feel warm and their cheeks flushed. The
body and mind that were originally tired from fighting were instantly soothed, and the mental fatigue also began to gradually dissipate.
"Puff, puff--"
No one spoke, and the only sound in the entire courtyard was the sound of eating peaches, mixed with the sound of "slurping" juice.
Soon, a peach was consumed by everyone, and everyone's face showed an expression of unsatisfied, and at the same time, there was a sense of satisfaction. Being with a master is the ultimate enjoyment in life!
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother were shocked and unbelievable, and even began to doubt their lives.
Is this really the peach? Not only is it much more delicious, but its efficacy has also been greatly enhanced. The life force is at least twice that of the previous peach!
This difference... is really huge.
Seeing them about to throw the peach pits into the trash can, Li Nianfan immediately reminded them, "Don't throw the peach pits away. Just put them on the table. I'm going to use them to plant peach trees."
Everyone was stunned. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother were petrified. They could hardly believe their ears. "Use this peach pit... to plant peach trees?"
Li Nianfan waved his hands and couldn't help laughing. "Hahaha, you don't understand, do you? You immortals just don't care about worldly things. Planting peach trees with peach pits is just a simple trick. It's not worth mentioning. I've already planted a few, and the effect is still good. They have already sprouted."
Who doesn't care about worldly things?
It should be you who don't know about immortal fireworks!
The peaches are the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, born with heaven and earth! Can they be grown from peach pits?
You are the only one in the whole world who can grow them, right?
This is just a small trick... I am ignorant.
The Queen Mother was so shocked by Li Nianfan's show that she was at a loss. She could only bite the bullet and say, "So that's how it is. I have learned it. I am taught."
