The grass helps to cultivate the spirit
Jian Zhen was a little confused when she first heard this, until she heard what Ye Jisheng said clearly and then she smiled: "Are you planning to go over there?"
Ye Jisheng nodded lightly.
Jian Zhen asked, "Why do you suddenly want to go?"
Ye Jisheng put his clothes in order and said slowly, "Everyone in the Three Realms wants to kill me, but I won't let them have their way. Since you and your child don't want to be the Supreme of the Three Realms, then I will have no choice but to continue to be the Supreme."
Jane really smiled.
What a cocky person, but this person has the right to be cocky.
Ye Jisheng said to him, "The South Sea is located in a remote area, isolated from the three tribes. It is a secluded place. I am afraid you will have to stay there for quite a while. Are you sure you want to go with me?"
Jian Zhen nodded and said, "If you ask me what I think, even though the elder of the Immortal Clan wants to harm me now, it would be safer for me to stay in the Demon Palace, but I don't want to stay here alone. It's very boring."
Ye Jisheng said: "You are wrong, the safest place in the world is not the Demon Palace."
Jian Zhen humbly asked: "Where is that?"
Ye Jisheng said confidently, "Of course it's by my side."
Jian Zhen: “…”
It is impossible to refute it.
If we say that the most dangerous place in the world is, it is probably the side of the devil. However, as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest, so of course there is no need to worry too much.
After all, Jane is really a happy-go-lucky person.
The two of them packed up and were ready to set off.
The high priest was very happy to hear the news, and before leaving, he said, "The South Sea is far away from the four tribes. It is a place where secluded tribes live. If Your Excellency and the Lord go there, I'm afraid they will have to hide their identities and not expose their bodies without permission."
Ye Jisheng had no patience, and his indifferent look made it unclear whether he listened or not.
Or Jian Zhen asked: "Master Priest, has anyone been to the South China Sea?"
The high priest replied, "The Nanhai tribe is blessed by the heavens, and the four tribes have a customary rule that they cannot disturb the peace of the Nanhai tribe, so even if someone has been there, they have not made it public."
What a mysterious group.
Jane couldn't help but feel curious about that mysterious ethnic group.
Ye Jisheng was very calm. He took Jian Zhen's hand and said, "Let's go."
The high priest knelt down and bowed, saying, "I wish your Excellency a smooth journey, and hope that you can recover your spirit as soon as possible to resist the calamity!"
Even when Jian Zhen walked far away, she could still feel the high priest's scorching gaze. His presence was so strong that if she hadn't known that the high priest meant well, she would have probably fled.
Phoenix stood on the hillside not far away.
Having not seen each other for many days, Jane Zhen actually felt a sense of familiarity.
The Phoenix's broad back was fluffy and windproof, so sitting on it didn't feel cold at all. Jian Zhen looked at the scenery below at first, but after looking for too long she got bored, so she withdrew her gaze and fell asleep in Ye Jisheng's arms.
The high priest had said this before.
The journey to the South China Sea is long and far away from the Three Realms and Four Clans, so it should take more time.
But Jane Zhen didn't expect it to take so long.
They took a rest in a forest on the way, which was the forest in the north of the demon tribe. After Ye Jisheng brought him to the ground, the phoenix ran away to find food.
Ye Jisheng took Jian Zhen to settle down in a nearby forest and captured a passing little monster.
The little monster was of a lower level and didn't recognize the demon god. He just kept kowtowing: "Please, Grandpa, spare my life!"
Jian Zhen sat on a rotten tree not far away, and her forehead hurt just looking at it.
The demon god had a calm expression. He was used to such judgments. He said, "Let me ask you, how far is this place from the South China Sea?"
The little monster said quickly, "It's not far. If you have a mount, you can get there in a day."
The demon god said: "This is the demon tribe's border. What are you doing here, a demon of your level?"
"Grandpa, you don't know." The little monster knelt on the ground and said, "The demon clan's royal family is in turmoil. The Ninth Prince used the matter of the soul cultivation formation to find out that the immortals were behind the eldest prince's collection of demon souls for cultivation. Now they have joined forces with the elders of several major clans to force the eldest prince to step down. His Majesty the Demon King was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. Now many little monsters are running to the edge of the country to save their lives."
Jian Zhen and Ye Jisheng looked at each other.
If I remember correctly, Yu is the ninth prince of the demon clan, and when Feiyun Valley was repairing the soul formation, Yu was among them.
Ye Jisheng said to the little monster, "Go away."
The little monster felt relieved and kowtowed, "Thank you, Grandpa!"
He ran away swiftly.
Ye Jisheng retracted his gaze, looked at Jian Zhen and said, "You don't need to pay too much attention to the affairs of the demon tribe, just let them fight each other."
Jian Zhen was amused by this description. He said, "Yu..."
Ye Jisheng raised his eyebrows when he mentioned this name. He sneered and looked at Jian Zhen and said, "He is much smarter than you think. The eldest prince of the demon clan has been secretly colluding with the immortal clan to practice evil magic for many years. How come the mission jade cylinder we got is from Feiyun Valley?"
Jane was really stunned.
In hindsight, they realized they might have been taken advantage of.
Xiao Cao said, "Did you know this a long time ago?"
Ye Jisheng retracted his gaze and said, "Everyone in this world interacts for profit. A prince of the demon clan stays with you incognito. Don't you think that there are really people who don't seek anything and are simply kind?"
Jian Zhen: “…”
He really thought so.
Ye Jisheng saw through his thoughts and sneered.
Jian Zhen was a little embarrassed and said: "Then why don't you stay by my side?"
Ye Jisheng sat beside the fire, which was burning with red flames. He looked up at Jian Zhen and was about to speak arrogantly: "I am the supreme ruler of the demon race, rich in the three realms..."
Jian Zhen interrupted him: "That's right, now it's not you who is accompanying me, but me who is accompanying you."
Ye Jisheng glanced at him.
"Now I am the one who stays with you incognito." Jian Zhen carefully sorted out the logic. Xiao Cao clapped her hands cleverly: "So you see, there are people in this world who have nothing to gain but simply want to be good to you."
The wind blew, the flames burned, and people's cheeks turned red, like the most dazzling light.
Most people would be moved when hearing this.
The Demon Lord glanced at him with an ambiguous expression, and said slowly: "Even if you have a plan, as long as you tell me, I will consider giving it to you."
Jian Zhen said: "Really?"
Ye Jisheng's red eyes looked at him sinisterly, and finally he put on his usual fake smile. His handsome face was dangerous and charming. He asked, "What do you want?"
Jian was really frank. He sat on the wooden stake and said, "I want you to stop taking your life lightly and treat your illness well. I want you to stop getting hurt."
There was silence for a moment.
Ye Jisheng didn't seem to expect him to say this: "That's all?"
Jian Zhen nodded and said, "Is it okay?"
Ye Jisheng's profile flickered in the firelight, making it difficult to see his expression. He said, "There are many wishes that I can help you fulfill. You still have a chance to change your request."
Jian Zhen was a little speechless. Xiao Cao looked at him and said, "Who said we should change? I won't change. I just want you to cultivate your spirit well."
The flames in the forest flickered and swayed in the wind.
Ye Jisheng's red eyes fell on him, his gaze was deep, making people feel creepy, but before Jian Zhen thought about it, he saw the Demon Lord standing up.
The flame was extinguished.
The sky not far away gradually brightened.
Ye Jisheng said, "Let's go, let's continue on our journey. It's too damp here to stay for long. We'll settle down when we get to the South China Sea."
Jian Zhen nodded. After the phoenix came back, he took Jian Zhen with him on the phoenix's back. From a distance that was not too far away, they could still see the little monster that saw them running away and ran away in fear.
Ye Jisheng said, "See? This is the normal reaction of the sentient beings in the three realms after seeing me. I'm afraid you're the only one who's busy trying to make me live longer."
Jian Zhen retracted his gaze and said, "Everyone is afraid of you because they have never understood you. This little demon is afraid of you now, but after he knows that you will never kill innocent people, he will not be afraid of you next time."
Ye Jisheng listened to his twisted logic and smiled faintly with some indifference.
I'm afraid there is only one blade of grass in the three realms who thinks this way. He didn't kill the little demon because there were monsters all around the forest. Even if he didn't take action, the little demon would not live long.
Phoenix takes flight.
The wind started to blow, but Jian Zhen, who was protected by Ye Jisheng, could not feel any wind at all. He had been rather sleepy lately and had spent half of the time on the road sleeping. Ye Jisheng's arms were always warm, which was especially suitable for sleeping.
I slept until the sun shone down on the earth.
Phoenix stopped at a hillside, and Ye Jisheng said to the person in his arms, "Are you awake?"
Jian Zhen nodded gently: "Yeah."
Ye Jisheng said: "Just in time, we are here."
Jian Zhen looked ahead. The coastline not far away was endless. On the other side of the mountain, there were cities and small villages everywhere. People coming and going in the town made it look like a prosperous capital. "Is this the secret tribe in the South China Sea?"
Ye Jisheng nodded and said, "Yeah."
Jian Zhen didn't see anything, and said to Ye Jisheng: "Then should we go over there?"
Ye Jisheng said calmly: "If you and I suddenly enter the city, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."
Jian Zhen saw that the people coming and going on the official road at the foot of the mountain not far away were all wearing ordinary coarse cloth clothes, while he and Ye Jisheng, one wearing a jade-like brocade robe and the other wearing a dark gold-rimmed robe, had an immortal look and seemed like people from two different worlds.
Ye Jisheng's hand landed on Jian Zhen's head, gently.
Jian Zhen felt his clothes suddenly shake, and the clothes he was wearing turned into an ordinary green cloth shirt, while Ye Jisheng's clothes next to him turned into a black long gown with white cloth edges. The golden crown on his head turned into an ordinary silver crown, and the jade hairpin on Jian Zhen's head was replaced with an exquisite and small wooden hairpin.
Ye Jisheng was quite satisfied, and then he said, "Let's go."
Jian Zhen was somewhat impressed by how reliable the Demon Lord was.
When they were coming down from the mountain, they saw an oxcart slowly approaching from a distance. The old man driving the cart was a little surprised to see two people. It was rare to see a handsome young man with a jade-like appearance, especially the one next to him who looked even more heroic.
But.
The young man waved and said, "Uncle, where are you from? Can I ask you for directions?"
The old man couldn't refuse such a cute and well-behaved young man, so he waved his whip and stopped the oxcart road: "I'm pulling goods back from Qishan, and I have to go back to the city before dark. Now the government is limiting water supply, so I'm trying to save some money!"
Jane was stunned when she heard some familiar words.
Ever since he came to the world of cultivation, he has been hearing about spirit stones and major sects, but he hasn't heard about government and money for a long time. This sense of familiarity made him have some guesses in his mind about this so-called South China Sea clan, a hidden lineage that is a mysterious clan that can repair the divine veins.
Could it be...
Human race!!!!
Jian Zhen smiled and said, "Master, which city is ahead? My husband and I are lost and I want to ask you for directions."
Hearing this, the old man glanced at the man next to Jian Zhen. He didn't expect that this young man was actually married, and married to the man next to him who looked like he was not someone you could easily mess with! !
Normally when I see this kind of person I try to stay as far away from him as possible.
But Jian Zhen looked kind, so the old man was relieved and said cheerfully, "Our Muyu City is ahead. Judging from the way you two are dressed, you must be from the capital. Our small town is remote, so it's normal to get lost. If you don't mind, just get in the car and follow me into the city!"
Jane was really delighted: "Thank you very much, sir!"
As he spoke, he pulled Ye Jisheng's hand.
So, a demon from the three realms and a fairy who became a spirit from magical grass climbed onto the old man's water cart, sat on the small bench in the cart, and staggered into the city. Ye Jisheng was handsome to begin with, and even after changing his human form, his aura was still noble and powerful, which seemed out of place with the ox cart. Fortunately, there were not many people on the road in the evening and he could not be seen.
Jian Zhen asked the old man, "Uncle, why do you still need to transport water from the outer city?"
The old man drove the ox cart and said, "Oh, our Muyu City has been hit by a severe drought this year. The river water has dropped and it is difficult to get water from the wells. Now the people in the city are looking forward to praying for rain every day."
Jian Zhen frowned and said, "How could this happen?"
The old man sighed and said, "Although our Muyu City was not rich before, everyone had enough food and clothing. This year there is a severe drought and no crops have been harvested. The people in the town are preparing to worship the Master of Rain to see if it will help."
Jane Zhen hasn't spoken yet.
Ye Jisheng sneered.
Jian Zhen looked at him, and the old man also heard it. He asked, "Sir, why are you laughing?"
Ye Jisheng looked indifferent and said calmly: "There is a severe drought and no rain, and no plants grow. It is because the local land and sky are in disorder. If you don't treat the symptoms, what is the point of worshipping?"
The old man was confused: "What do you mean, sir?"
Jane was really afraid that the more Demon God talked, the bigger the matter would be, so she quickly laughed and said, "No, no, my husband likes to brag when he has nothing to do, so don't take it to heart, sir!"
Only then did the old man regain his composure.
Ye Jisheng's gaze fell on Jian Zhen and he raised his eyebrows silently, as if to say, bragging?
Jian Zhen quickly squeezed his hand in a flattering manner.
Ye Jisheng didn't look at him.
Jian Zhen shook his arm quickly. He was also planning something big. He hadn't found a way to repair his soul yet. He couldn't alert the enemy and get dragged out and treated as a charlatan!
The group finally arrived in the town.
This small town is indeed densely populated and has many shops, but the surrounding land has been scorched by the sun, which is indeed a sign that it has not rained for a long time.
The old man took the initiative to say: "You two, do you want to stay at the inn for a few days?"
Ye Jisheng confessed: "We want to live here for a long time."
"I see." The old man knew that the two were probably from the capital who were staying in the small town temporarily, so he said, "It's a coincidence for you two. There happens to be an empty house in the east of the city. It belongs to the landlord, Mr. Wang. I'm familiar with Mr. Wang. If you have enough money, you can buy it and live there. The place is beautiful with mountains and rivers. It's the best place!"
Just when Jane was about to worry about whether they had money.
Ye Jisheng took out a small pearl from his arms and said to the old man, "Is this enough?"
The old man was almost blinded by the light. He had never seen such a crystal clear and shining pearl before. He said quickly, "Enough, enough!"
Ye Jisheng said, "Take us to the house."
The old man threw the ox cart in front of his house and led the way without stopping, fearing that such a generous couple would change their minds. He kept talking about how nice the house was as they walked.
It took them a long time to reach the destination.
Jian Zhen looked at the house that gradually came into view not far away. It was spacious and comfortable. After entering the house, except for the barren yard, every part of the house was in good condition. She nodded with satisfaction.
Ye Jisheng said: "That's it."
The old man said quickly, "Then you two can stay here first. There is an old housekeeper in this house. Just tell him if you have anything. I will go and talk to Master Wang."
Jian Zhen nodded and said, "Thank you for your help."
The old man was a straightforward person: "What's the trouble? Our Muyu City is a small place, and neighbors should help each other!"
Jian Zhen smiled, he liked this old man very much, especially the optimistic attitude of these people when facing natural disasters and sufferings. It seems that the human race has such strength wherever they come from. They are ordinary but strong, and have tenacity wherever they go. When facing difficulties, they will roll tightly into a rope and find a bright light to keep going on in the barren land.
Ye Jisheng asked: "Do you like it here?"
Jian Zhen then withdrew his gaze. He stood beside him, pursed his lips and smiled, saying: "This legendary hidden tribe is better than I thought."
Ye Jisheng said calmly: "They are isolated from the three realms and four clans. Although they are weak, they have their own way of survival. They are a smart clan."
Jian Zhen: “…”
Why is this big guy so sharp in his comments on everything?
Two people were talking.
The old butler came over and said, "Are you the new owners of the manor? I'm so sorry, I didn't know you came today, and I didn't have anything prepared. There's not much water in the mansion, so I'm afraid we can only have some simple tea and food..."
Jian Zhen quickly said, "No need, no need. We have already eaten, so the housekeeper doesn't need to prepare anything today."
The old housekeeper was relieved and said, "Then I will take you to the side rooms. They are always clean. You two masters can rest directly."
Jane really said: "Thank you."
As I followed the old housekeeper along the way, I realized that there is really a shortage of water here.
After arriving at the wing room, the old butler brought a pot of water very carefully, as if it was a box of gold, "Master, this is the remaining water in the mansion. You can use it if you are thirsty at night."
It looks really sad.
Sitting in a chair, Ye Jisheng said indifferently: "When did the drought start?"
The old butler was stunned and recalled with difficulty: "This, this seems to be a year ago."
Ye Jisheng played with the water cup on the table and said, "I just came from the town. Has the land temple in your town been renovated?"
The old housekeeper thought for a moment and said, "It seems to have been renovated years ago, but then there was a severe drought in our town, and after everyone prayed to the God of Land for rain several times but it didn't come, they gave up, and the God of Land Temple fell into disrepair."
Ye Jisheng didn't explain much, just said: "Take this pot of water back, we don't like to use water at night."
The old butler looked at them as if to ask how could you two be so rebellious, but he did not dare to disobey his master's words. The old man was naturally happy to have a drink of water, so he left with the kettle.
Wait until the door is closed.
Jian Zhen said, "Do you already know the cause of the drought here?"
Ye Jisheng glanced at him and smiled: "How do you know that I know?"
Jian Zhen sat beside the bed and said, "You never like to talk nonsense. You just talked with the housekeeper for so long. You must have found the reason for the drought here and want to help them."
Ye Jisheng said indifferently: "I am only here to find a way to repair my soul. What does their life or death have to do with me?"
Jian Zhen curled her lips. This god was being stubborn again. He obviously cared about others, otherwise why would he care about whether the land temple was renovated?
Night was slowly falling outside.
Jian Zhen said, "The high priest said that the people of the hidden clan in the South China Sea have been believers of God since ancient times. They may have a way to repair the spirit, but when I met them just now, I found that they seem to be just ordinary people and don't seem to know any method."
Ye Jisheng didn't care: "Since we are here, we will find it sooner or later."
Jian Zhen nodded. There was no rush anyway, so he asked, "Why did you mention the land temple just now?"
Ye Jisheng said: "The location of the new land temple in this town is wrong. It happens to form a vein-sealing formation. This formation will suppress the power of the local land god. If no one breaks the formation, it will take three to five years to break the formation with the power of this land."
Jian Zhen said quickly: "The drought was caused by the sealing of the land, so it was useless for the people in the town to worship the gods, causing the temple to become deserted. However, the more deserted it became, the less people worshipped the land god, and the weaker its power became, making it more difficult to break through."
Ye Jisheng nodded lightly: "Yeah."
Jane really thought: "That's right."
Talking and talking.
The grass began to think.
When the room was completely silent, Jian Zhen's eyes lit up, and she couldn't suppress her excitement and said, "I think I know how to repair my spirit."
