"Do you think the story of the dragon veins in Jiangnan is true?"
Under the starry sky, Chen Jinnan looked at the Milky Way and asked the man beside him a question.
"What, you still want to go back to the Ming Dynasty and have a go at that immortal disciple?"
The Eternal Mother looked at him and said, "I advise you not to think about it. That dragon vein is very deep, and you can't control it."
"Oh, now that you mention it, I'm curious to know just how deep this water is."
Chen Jinnan became interested and said, "Before, when you were in charge of Jiangnan, I didn't feel comfortable inquiring about the dragon vein. I assumed that the dragon vein was in your hands. Now that you've mentioned it, I'm quite interested."
"Don't even think about it. That dragon vein is controlled by the Buddhist sect. It will be very difficult for you to get in."
"I've spent so many years in Jiangnan searching for that dragon vein. I did find it, but it's already been occupied by someone."
Chen Jinnan asked with some curiosity, "Buddhism?"
"That's right, otherwise why do you think those ambitious bald monks have been so quiet in the martial arts world all these years?"
"That's because all the Buddhist masters are guarding that dragon vein. Besides them, there are many other forces guarding it. Even if you and I were together, we wouldn't be able to break in."
"Aren't you curious why I killed the leader of the Maoshan Sect? It's because the leader of the Maoshan Sect was one of the people who guarded the dragon vein."
"There are also many reclusive old guys who have cooperated with Buddhism to occupy that dragon vein together."
"They sealed off the place completely, making it impregnable. Getting in would be as difficult as climbing to heaven."
"I used every trick in the book, and I only managed to see the entrance to the dragon vein."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinnan sighed.
The Eternal Mother began to speak, saying, "Besides, this thing is useless to you. That dragon vein was shattered and turned into a ferocious dragon."
"Even if you obtain it, it will be of no use. Only those bald monks in Buddhism have a way to resolve the resentment on the dragon vein."
"As you know, those bald monks like to work alone and eat alone. It would be very difficult for you to cooperate with them."
"Unless you are willing to submit to others and become a vassal of Buddhism, those old fogies whose lifespans are coming to an end have no choice but to submit to Buddhism in order to survive."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinnan chuckled self-deprecatingly: "A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he live long as a subservient person?"
"Our Legalists don't want to be inferior to the Confucians, which is why we've been fighting for so many years."
"Then that settles it. What are you thinking about all day long? Even if you did get that dragon vein, do you really think you could compete with that immortal disciple?"
"An island nation is a real country. There is a complete dragon vein pressing down under Mount Fuji, but it was still destroyed by others."
"So I advise you not to think too much, just stay in Liao Kingdom."
The Eternal Mother lay on the grass, looking at the moon in the sky, and missed her silly daughter.
When they were together, he thought Miao Qingqing was silly and confused, always overthinking things and having a lot of problems, which annoyed him to death.
But after being separated for so long, he missed his silly daughter terribly.
I wonder how she's doing with Li Chang'an, whether she's been bullied, whether her eyesight is better, whether she's grown taller, or whether she's gained weight.
What worried him most was whether his daughter would develop feelings for Li Chang'an if she spent too much time with him and end up being taken advantage of.
He'd already given away his eldest apprentice for nothing, and now his own daughter was giving away hers too—he'd lost out big time.
Thinking of this, the Eternal Mother felt a headache coming on.
To be honest, his life wasn't very good after he arrived in the Liao Kingdom.
Although Chen Jinnan was there to look after them, it was still quite difficult to raise a rebellious army in a foreign land.
After all, they were not very familiar with the customs and culture of the Liao Kingdom, so it was unlikely that they could win over the Liao people. They could only win over the Han people who lived in the Liao Kingdom.
Unfortunately, these Han people had been kneeling on the ground for too long and could not stand up. They had been enslaved by the Liao people for so long that they had developed a servile mentality.
Every time we told them to rebel against the Liao people, these people would shout and scream like madmen, informing the Liao people that they were planning a rebellion.
This caused some of the Liao Kingdom's experts to relentlessly hunt down the two brothers.
Besides these, they weren't used to certain things, such as food.
The current Eternal Mother especially misses the snacks she ate in Jiangnan, and what she misses most is the famous Jiangxi dish, stir-fried chili peppers.
Thinking about these things, the Eternal Mother sighed, "Alas, I should have known better than to run away."
The Ming Dynasty was doing just fine, but they had to listen to that bastard Chen Jinnan and come to the Liao Kingdom to join him in rebellion.
They are disciples of Legalism, but I am not. Why do I have to feed mosquitoes on the grasslands?
While the Eternal Mother was a headache for the Liao Kingdom, Chen Jinnan was utterly heartbroken.
The power that generations had painstakingly built up over so many years was utterly uprooted and destroyed by others.
Now, to rebuild in the Liao Kingdom, who knows how many years of effort it will take.
What made him most desperate was that despite his efforts, he could not see any hope.
Now, being hunted down by Liao Dynasty experts every day, there is no chance to win over the people.
Sometimes he doesn't even know if what he's doing is right or wrong.
He looked at the Eternal Mother beside him, who was lost in thought, and said, "Don't sleep. How can you sleep at a time like this? We haven't even made a single clue about our rebellion yet. Can't you think of a way?"
"The only solution I can think of is for us to stop rebelling. As long as we don't rebel, with our martial arts skills, we can live a carefree life anywhere in this vast world."
