Chapter 345 Epiphyllum

There is a clue.

Fang Zhixing stood up, waved his hand, picked up the rare treasures on the ground, and walked out of the cave.

Then, he revealed his mighty heavenly dragon form, grabbed the thin dog by the scruff of the neck, pointed his toes, and soared into the air, breaking through the clouds.

“Fuck!”

The little dog was startled and started scratching around with all four legs.

After a while, the little dog found himself breaking through the thick clouds and arriving in the stratosphere.

"You, you can fly?!"

The little dog smacked his lips and was shocked.

Fang Zhixing raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled: "The mighty dragon soars into the sky and rides on clouds. Is it strange that you can fly? It's just a basic exercise."

"Damn it!" Xigou's face was immediately filled with envy, jealousy and hatred. He was a ground-running animal and he probably wouldn't be able to fly in his entire life.

The man and the dog flew through the air at an extremely fast speed, like a flash of lightning, and it was no problem for them to cover a hundred miles in an instant.

Not long after, Fang Zhixing took a sharp turn and dived towards the ground.

The thin dog looked down and saw a huge city emerging on the ground, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with excellent feng shui.

"Where is this?" Xigou asked in a voice transmission.

Fang Zhixing replied, "The second largest city in Qianzhou is Luoxia City. Let's go into the city and ask about the residence of Madam Epiphyllum."

The little dog understood it clearly.

Whoosh~ Fang Zhixing plunged into the city and landed on the ground silently.

The streets are crowded with people.

Fang Zhixing walked slowly and leisurely.

Soon, he made a discovery. He walked slowly into a teahouse and chose a seat by the window.

There were quite a few people in the teahouse, talking about something, and they were all very emotional.

"Nonsense, complete nonsense!"

An old man with a white beard was glaring and looking very angry.

Hanging around his neck was a string of Buddhist beads, with a total of 108 beads, which were extremely gorgeous beeswax beads.

He was also holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand. All eighteen beads were the most precious full-green emerald and were priceless.

It was obvious at first glance that the old man was a follower of Buddhism, and he was very rich, a wealthy man.

Everyone else present also held a string of Buddhist beads or wore Buddhist jade.

Yes, Qianzhou is a Buddhist territory, the people are devout Buddhists and the incense is very prosperous.

The rich man pointed at a middle-aged businessman and said angrily, "Do you understand that Buddhism is boundless? The abbot of Wanfa Temple, Master Kongji, has profound Buddhist knowledge, which is unfathomable. Even the current emperor respectfully calls him a living Buddha. Who do you think can defeat him?"

The middle-aged merchant didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said with his hands spread out: "Mr. Liu, I'm not arguing with you, I'm just stating a fact."

He looked around at everyone and repeated what he had just said, "Master Kong Ji was defeated by a Taoist master and passed away the next day. He has passed away!"

Everyone was shocked and confused, and talked about it.

The impact of Fang Zhixing's defeat of Master Kongji on ordinary people was like a flood and a beast, and it might even have destroyed their faith.

"fart!"

The rich man refused to believe it and shouted, "Years ago, I went to the Wanfa Temple to fulfill a vow and saw Master Kongji with my own eyes. He is a great monk who has attained enlightenment and is blessed by the Buddha. He will live in paradise forever. Who can kill him? Don't tell lies to confuse people here!"

The middle-aged merchant was completely speechless. He waved his hand and said, "Hey, I just came back from doing business in Yuanye City. This is absolutely true. Believe it or not."

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Who do you think that Taoist master is?"

The middle-aged merchant replied, "A traitor named Fang Zhixing, who seems to be from Danzhou, and has joined the Five Elements Sect. He is now the most wanted criminal in the imperial court."

After hearing this, some people said, "The position of the most wanted criminal has always been the rebel leader Wang Tianbu. I didn't expect that Fang Zhixing is more courageous than him."

The middle-aged merchant agreed with this and said carefully, "I heard that the current emperor attaches great importance to this person. Not only has he issued a huge bounty order, he has also invited masters from the Sword Sect, the Talisman Sect, the Witch Clan, the Undead Clan, and other parties to discuss how to suppress the rebellion!"

The wealthy man shook his head repeatedly and questioned, "Assuming what you said is true, there are no other people in the Buddhist sect? There is a 'Lantern Buddha Courtyard' behind the Wanfa Temple. Haven't you heard of it?"

The middle-aged merchant said, "Of course I know this, but the great defeat of the Wanfa Temple made the current emperor very dissatisfied, so the Buddhist sect was disliked and was not invited."

"Nonsense, nonsense!"

The rich man turned a deaf ear to him and left the table in anger, saying as he walked away, "I will go to Hanlu Temple right now and ask 'Master Haiyuan'."

At this time, the waiter came to Fang Zhixing's table with tea.

Fang Zhixing took a sip of tea and asked casually, "Waiter, have you heard of Madam Epiphyllum?"

The waiter said, "Sir, you are talking about the lady of the Epiphyllum tree who lives in seclusion in the Epiphyllum Valley, right?"

Fang Zhixing's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What kind of person is she?"

The waiter smiled and said, "I have never seen her. I have only heard that she is a miracle doctor with great medical skills. She is good at treating difficult and complicated diseases. She can bring people back to health with her magic hands and cure all diseases with her medicine."

"Oh, miracle doctor..."

Fang Zhixing understood, and then asked about the location of Epiphyllum Valley and marked it on the map.

After a while, he stood up and left, flying into the air towards the northwest.

It flew about seven or eight hundred miles.

In the middle of the rolling hills, a large canyon suddenly appears. It is as deep as an abyss and shrouded in fog that never dissipates year after year.

Fang Zhixing landed quickly and arrived at the valley entrance.

Looking around, there is a small path at the entrance of the valley, with a stone tablet standing beside the path.

There are three big characters engraved on it: Epiphyllum Valley.

Seeing this, Xigou couldn't help but sigh: "It's so cool to fly into the sky and into the ground. It's so easy to find a place."

really!

In the past, Fang Zhixing and Xigou would probably have to spend several days to find this hidden Epiphyllum Valley.

During this period, you may meet some people and some stories may happen.

But now, it just takes a gust of wind.

A man and a dog broke into the valley, walked along the path, and went deeper and deeper.

It seems that he is not walking fast, but in fact, each step is ten feet.

After a while!

The two of them came to the end of the path and saw a flat land with neat houses on the top of a slope.

There is actually a small secluded village here.

There was a stream not far away. Several children were naked, catching fish in the stream and having a lot of fun.

Fang Zhixing walked slowly to the top of the slope and saw three elderly people sitting on an old tree stump at the entrance of the village. They were smoking their pipes, smacking their lips and basking in the sun leisurely.

A strong rural atmosphere comes into view.

Fang Zhi walked forward and asked, "Old man, may I ask where Madam Tanhua lives?"

The old man put down his pipe, pointed to the depths of the canyon, and said with a smile, "We have to go further. After passing the bamboo forest, there is a mountain villa inside."

Fang Zhixing nodded, took two steps at a time, crossed the small village, and entered the bamboo forest.

Suddenly, the ring on my left hand lit up.

[Two miles ahead, there is a level 5 restricted area. ]

Fang Zhixing narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered, "It seems that this Lady Epiphyllum is not simple either."

Xigou thought about it and replied, "Fan Qiulai is far away in Daizhou, but he also knows about this Lady Tanhua. It shows that this woman is definitely not an ordinary person."

The two of them quickly passed through the bamboo forest, and the view in front of them suddenly opened up to a wide open flat area surrounded by a half-man-high stone wall.

Inside the low stone wall is a villa, which is not particularly large. The main building is a spire-shaped pavilion similar to a church.

Seeing this scene! Fang Zhixing's face changed slightly and his brows furrowed.

The dog looked at it and muttered, "Why does this church look familiar? Have I seen it somewhere?"

Fang Zhixing reminded: "It's a mandatory task issued by the ring."

The little dog couldn't help but shudder.

There was no doubt about it! When he and Fang Zhixing were carrying out a mandatory mission, they had come across some evil summoning rituals.

Someone was possessed by a ghost and summoned evil creatures to bring disaster to the people! The summoning place was a building similar to the one in front of us.

Fang Zhixing immediately released his spiritual perception, and in an instant, all the situations in the villa were reflected in his mind.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

There were not many people in the villa, only two, one was a middle-aged woman with an extremely beautiful appearance, and the other was a pure and lovely young girl.

At this moment, the middle-aged woman was lying on a bamboo chair, taking a deep nap.

A young girl was embroidering. There was a stove next to her with flames dancing and water boiling.

Suddenly!

The middle-aged woman opened her eyes, sat up, and looked towards the door with a slightly solemn expression.

She said, "Rou Rou, there are guests outside, go and greet them."

"oh……"

The young girl raised her head, responded, and trotted out without asking any more questions.

She came to the door and saw Fang Zhixing and Xigou, and asked in surprise, "Who are you looking for?"

Fang Zhixing took in everything and said with a smile, "I am a person seeking medical treatment. I came here because of your reputation. May I ask if Madam Tanhua is here?"

"Here I am!"

The young girl opened the door directly and waved, "Follow me."

Soon, Fang Zhixing entered a living room.

The middle-aged woman changed into a simple white dress and greeted him, "I am Tanhua, respectfully welcoming you, my distinguished guest."

Fang Zhixing returned the greeting and said, "My name is Zhixing, nice to meet you, Madam."

“I don’t deserve it!”

When Madam Epiphyllum heard the name Fang Zhixing, her expression became visibly nervous.

She extended her hand as a gesture of invitation and ordered, "Rou Rou, serve some good tea."

They sat down and drank tea.

Xigou looked at Madam Epiphyllum. She had fair skin, beautiful looks, long legs, a slender waist, and huge breasts that were trembling, which was very charming.

"This Lady Epiphyllum is really pretty, why did she live in seclusion in this canyon?" he complained.

Fang Zhixing looked at Madam Epiphyllum deeply and suddenly asked, "You are not a human, right?"

“…”

Mrs. Epiphyllum's delicate body trembled and her face became extremely stiff.

The young girl blinked and shouted, "How can you talk like that? Who is not a human being?"

Xigou was also surprised and asked, "What do you mean, if she is not a human, then what is she?"

Madam Epiphyllum waved her hand and said sternly, "Rou Rou, go out first. Don't interrupt when the adults are talking."

The young girl was reluctant, but still walked out obediently.

Then, Madam Tanhua lowered her head, and said in a humble manner, "Daoyou, I have lived in seclusion here for many years, practicing medicine and saving lives, and I have never fought with the world. I hope you can show mercy and not make things difficult for me."

Fang Zhixing asked curiously: "How do you control your hunger?"

As soon as this question was asked, Xigou reacted suddenly.

Good guy! Madam Epiphyllum is actually a demon! After he and Fang Zhixing became stronger, especially after entering the Nine Oxen Realm, they haven't encountered demons for a long time.

Madam Epiphyllum took a deep breath and said slowly: "More than five hundred years ago, I became a demon for some reason and did eat some people.

Then one day, I happened to see two masters fighting each other. It was so intense that it was dark and chaotic.”

She pointed outside and described it carefully: “This big canyon was actually left behind when the two masters fought.

The two men were powerful warriors at the Ninth Bull Realm and came from the same sect.

They had an internal conflict over a pill and ended up fighting.

That pill is extremely valuable. After taking it, one can be promoted to the Hundred Bulls Realm.

As a result, the two men fought to the end and both were injured and died.

This was a good deal for me! So I ate them both, and the pill as well.

Because I ate their brains, my intelligence became much broader and I understood a lot of truths.

It was from then on that I was able to control my hunger and never ate anyone again.”

Fang Zhixing understood and said thoughtfully, "I know that if a human eats raw beast meat, they may lose control and become a demon. But I didn't expect that after eating the infinitely reproducing flesh and blood, the demon can actually become a normal human being."

Madam Epiphyllum continued, "I can't explain exactly what happened, but Taoist and Buddhist masters came to see me. After hearing about my deeds, they went back and captured a few demons to try, but unfortunately they were unsuccessful."

Fang Zhixing understood and asked, "Have you heard of me?"

Madam Tanhua was moved and said, "Although I keep a low profile, I have been kind to everyone over the years and have made many friends, so I am not out of touch with the news."

At this point, Madam Epiphyllum raised her head, glanced at Fang Zhixing cautiously, and asked, "I wonder if you have any instructions for me by visiting so suddenly?"

Fang Zhixing asked back, "You are called Lady Epiphyllum, so you must know a lot about Epiphyllum, right?"

Madam Epiphyllum continued: "I dare not say that I know a lot, but I do like Epiphyllum."

Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "Have you heard of the wonderful epiphyllum?"

Madam Epiphyllum was startled at first, then answered seriously, "So you want to find the Wonderful Words Epiphyllum. This kind of Epiphyllum is actually not uncommon. As far as I know, there are four level five restricted areas in Qianzhou alone where it can be found."

Fang Zhixing said indifferently: "Does it include this level 5 restricted area here?"

As soon as these words came out! Madam Tanhua took a breath of cold air and said in astonishment: "Daoyou is indeed very powerful and knows everything.

There is indeed a Level 5 restricted area here. The entrance suddenly appeared more than 200 years ago. In order to avoid attracting adventurers, I completely blocked the entrance."

Fang Zhixing asked, "Is there any witty epiphyllum in this restricted area?"

Madam Epiphyllum nodded and said, "There should be. At least I saw it two hundred years ago."

Fang Zhixing stood up and ordered, "Take me there."

Mrs. Epiphyllum pursed her lips, showing a little resistance. After hesitating for a few seconds, she finally dared not disobey.

Then she walked out of the living room and came to an old tree in the backyard.

Fang Zhixing looked up and found a human face growing on the old tree. The face had a cold expression, drooping eyebrows, and looked unhappy.

The ring glowed again.

[The way to enter this level 5 restricted area is to tell a joke and make Barkface laugh...]
