Chapter 47: The Unforgettable Past
The vines were ready to rush forward and were about to wrap around Lingxiang, but she turned around unexpectedly.
"Huh! I was wondering what was going on, but it turns out it's you again!"
Lingxiang sneered and spoke, but the vines seemed to hear her. The two tallest ones actually collapsed after she spoke.
Speaking of Yinyu Peak, it is truly lush and green, with spring all year round. It is said that it remains like this because of some formation cast by the ancestor Wuwei.
Therefore, except for those with strange habits, many spiritual beasts of the Yuanqing Sect all live in this peak.
Some readers may be suspicious. Since it is spring here all year round, why would Lingxiang, who is so afraid of cold, go to Qiuyun Peak to avoid the winter?
There is naturally a reason for this.
Because it is warm and humid here, many wild spiritual plants grow quietly on this peak, so Lingxiang often came here to pick them when he was a child.
Since it is a precious land for growth and has spiritual veins here, some spiritual and intelligent trees that have become spirits came from other peaks to settle in Yinyu Peak.
It just so happened that Yinyu Peak was located at the end of Jiuque Mountain, which was the back mountain of Yuanqing Sect. After being arranged by the two immortals Danyang and Danzhu, they took on the responsibility of guarding the mountain.
When it comes to guarding the mountain, these spirits are really dedicated to their duties. They have already developed intelligence and are able to distinguish things. Anything they have never seen will be imprisoned until the spirit beasts in the mountain notify the two real people Danyang and Danzhu to come, and then they will release them.
For example, when Lingxiang and Maidong came here for the first time, they were tied up tightly by these vines. If there had not been a spirit beast that recognized Lingxiang and informed Danzhu Zhenren of their trapping, they would have suffered and would have starved for several days in this deep forest.
At that time, Lingxiang was filled with rage. After being rescued, she got a lot of kerosene from somewhere. That night, she quietly climbed to Yinyu Peak alone, found the tree spirit, poured the kerosene on it, and threw the fire starter on it without hesitation.
When the tree spirit saw that it was being burned, it immediately twisted its body, and the burning incendiary oil spilled everywhere, causing other spirits to suffer as well. In a moment, the entire forest was engulfed in flames.
Fortunately, it was discovered early at that time, and Master Zhao Ming quickly set up the Nine Heavens Lingze Formation, which saved the mountain from danger.
From then on, all the spirits in the mountain realized Lingxiang's arrogance. Although she was forbidden to set foot on Yinyu Peak by Shangqing Zhenren after this incident, the Devil King of Chaos was still the Devil King of Chaos, right? Whenever she needed some herbs or spiritual plants, she would sneak up here.
When many spirits saw her, they either disguised themselves as ordinary trees or pretended not to see such a person. In short, they did not dare to provoke her.
Although she had not been here for a long time in these years, the shadow she once cast made it difficult for them to forget her "domineering" aura and the face that they would always remember no matter how it changed!
Lingxiang took out the Fire Spirit Pearl from her bosom, shook it, and instructed the vines to take the woman they had just abducted down the mountain safely.
The Fire Spirit Pearl condenses the fire of heaven and earth. Although the spirit incense cannot activate it, the monsters can feel the spiritual power in it. Hearing the spirit incense's command, they hurriedly shook their vines, as if nodding, to show that they would definitely do it.
Maidong was hung on an old tree, crying out to the sky, calling out to his master and uncle, but suddenly he was let down.
Several vines gathered together to form a raft, floating on the ground and carrying her down the mountain in a moment.
Maidong was full of surprise and doubt. He only came to his senses after his feet were firmly on the ground. He scratched his head and hesitated whether to go up again.
Without this person dropping the bag, Lingxiang felt much more convenient. She pointed at the thickest vine and ordered it to take her to find the two immortals Danyang and Danzhu.
The vine seemed startled and reluctantly twisted to Lingxiang's side and formed a spiral. After she sat on it, it carried her up the mountain.
The remaining vines saw the fragrance fade away and fell to the ground as if relieved, and did not move at all.
…
As soon as school was over, Zhao Wuyang went into the attic first. While pouring tea, he suddenly felt something unusual in the room.
Before everyone entered the house, they heard Zhao Wuyang's strange cry. They hurried into the room and saw Lingxiang kneading Zhao Wuyang's face and saying things like "Sister, love you so much."
Zhao Wuyang had lost all hope in life, but when Long Qi and the other two rushed into the house, he glanced at Xinyi with a pleading look.
Despite his affectionate gaze, Xinyi had no other choice. He was probably too busy taking care of himself, so how could he possibly help him? Looking at Maidong, who kept asking about his well-being, he sighed helplessly and mustered his full attention.
Seeing that Xinyi had no hope, Zhao Wuyang quickly turned his gaze to Liu Xia, but Liu Xia seemed fine. He just smiled, walked to the couch by the window, sat down, picked up the book on the small table and began to read.
So only Long Qi is left.
When Long Qi saw the hopeful look in her eyes, he suddenly felt a great sense of responsibility. He hurried forward to talk to Lingxiang and quietly rescued Zhao Wuyang from Lingxiang's hands.
Zhao Wuyang was free, and hurriedly hid behind Long Qi. Lingxiang had only glanced at him, yet she frightened him so much that he stumbled up to the second-floor bedroom. Although the Qingwei Peak Master had done a favor for his mother, he was truly overwhelmed by such a fierce woman. He wondered what it was about her that made Long Qi fall in love with her...
Seeing Zhao Wuyang fleeing in panic, Lingxiang smiled, sat down, poured a cup of tea and started drinking it - her Wuyang was really adorable, and it would be nice if she could take him to Xianyunju and play with him every day.
Now she treated Zhao Wuyang as her own family and even wanted to take him to Qingwei Peak.
Looking at Lingxiang who was squinting her eyes and drinking tea in front of him, Long Qi knew that she must be planning something in her mind again - this expression was just like a fox in the mountains, which he had seen many times in Youran Ju.
"Ahem!" He pretended to clear his throat. "What...what are you doing here?"
Upon hearing this, Maidong looked at Lingxiang - yes, she was also very puzzled. He had just finally cheered himself up and was about to set foot on Yinyu Peak again, but he saw her coming down the mountain. He didn't know what she encountered on the mountain, and she didn't answer any questions.
"There are many traps in this martial arts exercise. Are you ready?" Lingxiang said, putting down the tea, walked towards Liu Xia, and took the book in his hand. It turned out to be "Zhucao Bielu".
"I was saying it looked familiar. When did the sect print this book?"
Mai Dong looked at the book in Ling Xiang's hand and said with a smile, "Master thought this book was very good, so he went down the mountain to print some and left it in the sect to circulate among the disciples."
"What? Your master actually passed my book around to other people without permission!" Lingxiang exclaimed, "And he didn't even pay me!?"
Her shout startled everyone.
This medicine book, which lists many spiritual plants and is accompanied by pictures and texts with their characteristics, was actually written by Lingxiang!
