Even the human world of this era is filled with legends. There are many talented individuals, like Bigan, with his exquisite mind, as well as mythical beasts, extraordinary people, and treasures—all of which cannot be viewed through the lens of modern society.
Of course, life for ordinary people is still very hard.
Productivity was low, seeds did not produce good varieties, and coupled with a small population, life expectancy was also low, averaging over 40 years old. The nobility had a better life.
Lu Cijiu brought his two cubs, Xiaogong and Xiaolong, and turned into human form, wearing simple and plain clothes. Even so, when they walked on the dirt streets, they still attracted the curious people to secretly watch and avoid them, as they thought they were aristocrats.
It’s mainly about the appearance and temperament of the three people.
It is still a slave society.
"Xiaolu, they kept looking at me. Is it because I'm too handsome?" Xiaogong, with his Nezha hairstyle, said proudly, "Of course they are."
Lu Cijiu said: "They live a hard life, working for a living, and are tanned. These are symbols of their hard work. Xiaogong, don't judge people by their appearance."
"I don't look down on them," Xiao Gong said, humming twice more. "It's our nature to love beauty and show off our feathers. You said it before. Anyway, I am very beautiful."
Lu Cijiu understood the awkward implication of Xiao Gong's words: his words weren't discriminatory. It was beautiful, it was beautiful, and his instincts couldn't be suppressed. He rubbed Xiao Gong's pubic area, saying, "You're right. I believe you don't look down on humans. I just want to tell you more about human life."
So he took them through the farmland and saw the humans working hard.
They had no direction or purpose; they just followed whatever they wanted. Lu Cijiu didn't need to eat, but after living with Xiaogong, he was used to eating, so he ate whatever he could find on the road. The mountains and fields were abundant, with wild fruits and domesticated chickens. As Lu Cijiu grilled them, exploring the world was a lot of fun for the two young people.
Especially Xiaolong.
Xiaolong saw women like her, some with chicken skin and white hair, and some young and thin. They had dark skin and rough hands. They could not make love or transform into dragons and fly in the sky.
"This is human beings. Although their strength, cultivation and life are not as good as those of monsters and gods, they are down-to-earth, hardworking, wise and creative." Lu Cijiu said.
Monsters are relatively lazy, or they have superb magic skills and can use magic to do whatever they want very quickly and conveniently, so their thinking is relatively simple and they lack the creative spirit of humans.
Along the way, we encountered mountain spirits and monsters, all in their everyday forms, hunting, not thinking, and cultivating magic in their spare time. Human creativity is also forced. Hungry, weary, weave, and find ways to improve farming tools, find more edible things, invent writing, and make clothes.
The literary spirit is passed down from generation to generation.
There were hard-working common people, and there were also nobles enjoying delicious food and wine in the palace. That day, they arrived at the Chaoge Palace. Lu Cijiu took them on a tour. It was rather simple, and the food and drinks were also very monotonous.
I also met the famous King Zhou, Emperor Xin. At that time, Emperor Xin was only eight years old. Apart from being stronger and more energetic than boys of the same age today, he was quite ordinary.
Who would have thought that he would later become corrupt and immoral, indulge in wine and women.
Lu Cijiu: "I don't know if there is a Su Daji vixen."
Xiao Gong's ears immediately perked up, and he asked warily, "Do you still want to raise a vixen?"
Lu Cijiu hadn't reacted yet, wondering how the topic had become about him wanting to raise a vixen. When had he even mentioned that? Xiao Gong was furious, lashing out, "You already have me, why would you want to raise a vixen?! Isn't my mighty Kunpeng powerful enough? Why would I want to raise a vixen?! I can tolerate raising a broken dragon, but you can't raise a vixen! No, no, no!"
Comparing the naughty little palace maid in front of him and the eight-year-old King Zhou, Lu Cijiu didn't know who was the more foolish one.
And you knew the superiority of the majestic Kunpeng more than four thousand years ago.
Lu Bijiu: ...
"I didn't say raise."
Xiao Gong looked suspicious, "Really? You said so."
Lu Cijiu: ... "Really, really, you little brat."
"Who's a broken child? I'm not. I'm already big enough."
Lu Cijiu didn't want to drive at all when facing the naughty kids.
I went to the Grand Palace and met the child King Zhou. The princess also asked Lu Cijiu if he wanted to sell Xiao Gong and Xiao Long, offering to buy them with a hundred cows. If Lu Cijiu hadn’t stopped him, little princess, you’d be gone, didn’t you know?!
Xiao Gong can kill you with his mouth.
Lu Cijiu traveled extensively with his two children, and before they knew it, Emperor Xin had become a great king. The young Emperor Xin was a king, full of energy, and implemented many benevolent policies, improving the lives of the people.
During this period, many monsters came and wanted to rob them, but they were taught a lesson instead and had their bags looted clean. Before Lu Cijiu, he had been thinking about Gong Xichao's Qiankun bag, thinking it was magical. After he became a lotus seed, the Qiankun bag was actually very easy to make.
For example, now, each of the three of them has a small Qiankun bag, forged with ordinary materials. Now there are new materials, and Lu Ci reforges the old ones, and the Qiankun bag is getting bigger and bigger, and can hold a lot of things.
"It would be even better if we could create a mustard seed space." Lu Cijiu muttered.
When Xiao Gong heard this, his eyes moved, he looked at Lu Cijiu and snorted.
Lu Bijiu:???
"What are you humming, kid?"
"Hehehe, I won't tell you." Xiao Gong said confidently.
Lu Cijiu: This kid is really in his rebellious period now.
The most famous of these is the Investiture of the Gods, which also marked the beginning of the man-made disaster that brought about the downfall of the Shang Dynasty. Emperor Xin went to the Nuwa Temple to burn incense, and upon seeing the divine face of Nuwa, he became aroused and wrote a poem on a pillar.
Nuwa then used the demon-summoning banner to send the jade pipa spirit, the nine-tailed fox spirit, and the nine-headed pheasant spirit as Emperor Xin's concubines, and then started King Wu's conquest of King Zhou and the Battle of Conferring the Gods.
The Battle of the Gods is a reshuffle following the last two battles.
Lu Cijiu took the two little ones to watch the melons and found that Xiao Gong was staring at him all the way. He couldn't help but touch his face, "What's wrong? The look in your eyes makes me creepy."
"Xiaolu, you feel guilty." Xiaogong continued to stare.
Lu Cijiu was even more frightened this time. The look and the way he stared were exactly like Gong Xichao.
Xiaolong reminded loudly: "Jiujiu, should we go and see the vixen? I heard that nine-tailed vixens are super beautiful, but I haven't seen one yet."
Xiao Gong immediately turned to stare at Xiao Long, glaring at him, "How can she be beautiful? She's obviously ugly. Po Long, you have poor aesthetic taste. Stop talking nonsense. Xiao Lu, you'd better look at me and wash your eyes."
"Haha, what's so good about you? You're so fancy." Dalong also retorted.
The two of them bicker with each other every day, and Lu Ci is used to it.
"Stop fighting, talk nicely." Lu Cijiu and the other two tried to stop them.
Xiao Gong immediately looked at him angrily, "Then tell me, who's pretty? Do you still want to look at vixens?"
“…” He still wanted to see.
Now that he was here, he really wanted to meet the famous Su Daji.
Lu Cijiu hesitated for a moment, and Xiao Gong understood what was going on. She puffed her cheeks angrily, "I knew it, Lu Cijiu, you're a big scoundrel!"
"Who did you learn this from? How could I be a hooligan? I'm just taking a look and I won't do anything rash." Lu Cijiu argued.
Who else could Xiao Gong learn lyrics from? Of course, it was from Lu Cijiu.
"You're just looking?" Xiao Gong was angry, with a slightly retreating tone.
Xiaolong next to him said: "Of course, a man's mouth is not just for looking at. If the nine-tailed fox is a great beauty, I would have sex with her."
“…”Lu Cijiu: Remember you are a girl, what are you doing!
Xiao Gong had been in a retreating tone, but when she heard this, she immediately became angry again, "Lu Cijiu, you say!"
What did I say? Lu Cijiu was confused by the noise, then thought of the original topic. Seeing Xiao Gong's superficial bluffing but actually aggrieved look, he softened and coaxed her, "I'm really curious. I've never seen Su Daji before. She was sent by Nuwa. It's like visiting tourist attractions everywhere. I really want to take a look. There's no other intention."
Xiaolong has more to say.
Lu Cijiu said: "Xiaolong, tell me again, you can barbecue by yourself tonight."
Xiaolong: "...Chew, just coax that little brat."
"Who's the little brat? I'm older than you!"
"How are you older than me? I'm almost older than you, little brat, call me sister."
Xiao Gong was angry: "You are a broken dragon, what sister? I don't have an ugly sister."
"Then you are blind, go and see, my breasts are bigger than yours, bigger in every way."
"I, I, I--" Xiao Gong looked down anxiously and saw that he had a flat chest.
Lu Cijiu:...No, you are so angry that you feel dizzy. Why are you comparing breasts with Xiaolong!
Whatever, a quarrel between the two of them is better than Xiao Gong quarreling with him.
Finally, we went to Chaoge and visited one of the old check-in spots - Su Daji.
Xiao Gong sat on the roof and looked carefully, "Not as good as me."
Xiaolong was slightly disappointed, "Not as pretty as me."
The two said in unison. Lu Cijiu: ...
In fact, Su Daji was already a great beauty in this era, with a hint of charm in her purity, but Xiaolong and Xiaogong were in front of her, and they were both really handsome. In comparison, Su Daji was not so good-looking.
But Su Daji had her own unique ability, the alluring power of a nine-tailed fox, which was far beyond the reach of the fledglings Xiao Gong and Xiao Long. Lu Cijiu had no problem seeing Daji seducing King Zhou. If he hadn't had Gong Xichao in his heart, he would have been shaken.
Xiaolong's eyes widened as he rubbed his chin and said, "This little fox is quite capable. I feel itchy inside just watching her, not to mention men."
Komiya immediately retorted, "I am a man, and I still look ugly."
"What kind of man are you?"
"Why am I not considered a man? Polong, if you have the guts, come out and I will beat you to death."
"Come on, who's afraid of who?"
So the two of them went to find a place to fight.
Lu Cijiu: ...To be honest, Xiao Gong is indeed not a man yet.
In Chaoge, they witnessed pools of wine and groves of meat, and various tortures. Lu Cijiu did not intervene. This was the will of heaven, the gears of history moving in unison. King Wen of Zhou began his campaign against King Zhou, summoning talented individuals from across the land.
The Battle of the Gods has begun.
"Go back."
Lu Cijiu waved goodbye and asked Xiaogong and Xiaolong to go back to the beach.
It's best to avoid a large-scale battle, especially one involving skilled personnel from both sides. The two dragons had no objections, but on their way back to the sea, they searched for food. Xiaolong picked up an egg and roasted it.
The eggshell is hard.
When Lu Cijiu took a look at the pitch-black egg, he felt a hint of vitality from it.
Are there still these?
"Don't eat it, the thing inside is still alive."
Xiaolong was shocked. "Alive? The little thing is still pretty strong."
Lu Cijiu: ...Xiaolong really isn't a softie. It's all his fault. Before Xiaolong transformed, he was raised as a boy. Plus, Xiaogong was always looking for trouble, so he was always in a "bro? If so, let's fight" kind of situation.
"It looks pitch black. If I don't want to eat it, then don't. It's not enough to fill my teeth." Xiaolong didn't care and stuffed the egg into his Qiankun bag.
Back in the sea, the two of them would quarrel and fight every day. After coming back from the human world, the sea seemed too deserted and boring. From time to time, the two of them would sneak out. Lu Cijiu didn't care, just told them to be careful and run away if they couldn't win.
Xiao Gong's skills are enough to allow him to escape, provided he doesn't encounter any powerful person.
Lu Cijiu was in a daze at the beach, often missing Gong Xichao, missing modern times, missing the shelter, and missing the cubs.
Soon after, King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang, passed away and handed over his great cause to his son, Ji Fa, who was King Wu of Zhou.
Xiao Gong has also grown into an eighteen-year-old boy, and his appearance is becoming more and more like Gong Xichao, except that his face looks a little immature and green.
The middle school boy is gone, but Komiya is very clingy now.
"Lu Cijiu, I brought your favorite fish. We will have grilled fish tonight. I will grill it for you."
Every time Lu Cijiu saw Xiaogong, he thought of Gong Xichao.
"You're looking at me like that again." Xiao Gong wasn't very happy. He slowly approached, using his height to press his advantage. With his natural talent, he used a wall-bang to hold Lu Cijiu in his arms. He lowered his head and said, "You're looking at me like I'm someone else. Who are you looking at?"
The tone was actually a bit dangerous.
Lu Bijiu: ...
Why does he feel guilty!!!
"It's you."
Xiao Gong took another closer look and decided to let Lu Cijiu go. She took the opportunity to hug Lu Cijiu, put her furry head on Lu Cijiu's shoulder, and said coquettishly: "I am your Xiao Gong, you can't think about others, you can only think about me."
"Do you still want to eat grilled fish? I'll grill it." Lu Cijiu ran away immediately.
This kid is so possessive.
In the past, Xiao Gong and Xiao Long used to sleep in separate beds, facing each other, never touching each other. But now Xiao Gong likes to squeeze onto that bed, and even complains that the wooden bed is too small. One day, he came back excitedly and pulled out a jade bed from his Qian Kun bag.
"This way I can hold you while sleeping, and you can't say I'm too hot anymore. This is very cool."
Lu Cijiu actually noticed that Xiao Gong's feelings towards him had changed. She was usually very attached to him. The most important thing was that one day when they woke up, he found that Xiao Gong had become a man.
This is very complicated.
He was actually scared.
What should Xiao Gong do if she is afraid that he will open his eyes and arrive in the modern era?
Therefore, Lu Cijiu was not aware of Xiao Gong's clingy enthusiasm, and he just played the role of an older brother and kept a distance from Xiao Gong.
"Lu Cijiu, don't you love me anymore?" Xiao Gong was very sensitive and noticed it.
Lu Cijiu: ...You speak so directly, how can I answer you.
Xiao Gong didn't get an answer and stormed out. Lu Cijiu looked at Xiao Long and said, "Please help me keep an eye on him."
"Jiujiu, you are so weird. Even though that guy is narcissistic and childish, you just like him. You even have the heart to hurt his feelings and worry about him now." Xiaolong said in confusion.
Lu Bijiu: ...
What do you mean he likes this? It makes him sound like a pervert.
He lost.
"Go and help me keep an eye on it."
"Oh, it's because I'm that thing's sister." Xiaolong called herself the sister and went to find Xiaogong after satisfying her desire.
The road leaves the old bald head.
In the human world, King Wu triumphed over King Zhou, and Jiang Ziya hung the List of Gods on the Conferred God Platform at Mount Qishan, conferring upon the 365 gods of the eight divisions of heaven. On this day, Xiaolong returned with a gravely injured Xiaogong.
Lu Cijiu had a premonition in his heart - this day had finally come.
"The gods in heaven look down on monsters. There is no Conferred God List. Long ago, everyone was a monster and their background was not as good as ours. Why are you all so proud now?" Xiaolong was angry and his eyes were red.
Lu Cijiu held the injured Xiao Gong in his arms and asked, "Who hurt you?"
"There are too many. The leader is called Xiao Gong, the egg. He said he wanted to avenge the Demon King."
The Demon Emperor Court, that is, the confidants of Emperor Jun and Donghuang Taiyi. The Demon Emperor Court collapsed during the war between the wizards and the demons. Now in the Heavenly Court, no matter what their background or monsters were before, once they entered the Heavenly Court, they were all gods or immortals.
But demons have their own relatives and strangers, and they secretly resent the demon master Kunpeng. Just when they are facing a young divine cub with hundreds of years of cultivation, they just fight to kill.
Xiaolong spat out a mouthful of blood after he finished speaking, and said guiltily: "If Xiaogong hadn't blocked it for me, I would have died long ago——"
"Xiaolong." Lu Cijiu interrupted Xiaolong's guilt and said quickly: "Remember what I said today, you and Xiaogong will stay here and practice well..."
"Jiujiu, what about you?" Xiaolong noticed something was wrong.
Lu Cijiu looked at Xiaogong, who was seriously injured and in critical condition in his arms.
"Me? I'm a lotus seed. I can still become a human if I die. Don't worry about me—"
"What if Xiao Gong wakes up and comes looking for you? You know he cares about you very much, he likes you. When you asked for a mustard seed space, he went to find heavenly materials and earthly treasures to make a ring for you. That's why you met those lousy immortals."
Lu Cijiu had not expected this to happen. His heart was heavy, but the little palace in his arms was in danger, and he attacked very cruelly, almost severing the little palace's demon veins.
Thinking about what Gong Xichao said about sealing his spiritual consciousness in a daze, it was not really sealing his spiritual consciousness, it was just sealing Gong Xichao's memories before he became an adult.
"Seal his memory..."
Before the creation of heaven and earth, the universe was in chaos. Hongjun obtained the petals of the blue lotus and became a saint. Lu Cijiu didn't know the power of the lotus seeds, but now that he had come to this point, he knew it was time to wake up.
The tearing pain and bits of light fell on Xiao Gong.
Finally, consciousness fell into darkness.
