"What?" Mu Run looked at her.
Yao Yao said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is just ahead. The village is preparing to release lanterns and do other fun things. It will be very lively. If you're not leaving, Madam, you can spend the festival here before returning to the capital."
"I'm afraid that won't work. There's a moon-worshiping ceremony at the Imperial Palace that day, and a banquet for the officials as well. There are quite a few things to do."
"Then let's wait for another opportunity. There's plenty of time."
"that is."
...
That night.
In the tea-making workshop, Mu Run was busy with the withering and processing of the tea leaves that she and Zhuang Zhuang had picked during the day. She worked until midnight before washing up and returning to her room.
Fu Yunchen sat at the round table in the room, reading by candlelight while waiting for her. When he saw her come in looking sleepy, he immediately put down his book and said, "You're back."
Mu Run nodded, then looked at him with sleepy eyes, "Why aren't you asleep?"
After saying that, he walked to the bedside and saw Zhuangzhuang lying inside. He took off his shoes and clothes and climbed onto the bed to sleep next to him.
Later, she didn't even register what Fu Yunchen said to her.
Fu Yunchen walked to the bedside, watching Mu Run quickly fall into a deep sleep without blinking, covered her with the blanket, and left the room.
On the desk in the study was a birdcage containing the fledgling eagle that Mu Run had rescued from the mouth of a snake.
He wanted to ask her how she got the fledgling eagle, but she was overcome with sleepiness and fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
Release the eaglets from their cages.
Because it was still young and couldn't fly, the fledgling eagle just stared blankly at Fu Yunchen and let out a soft cry.
Fu Yunchen said, "You and Huihui are both eagles with spiritual veins, which is truly rare."
...
A snake slithered into Mu Run's room.
If Mu Run were awake, she would definitely recognize it as the green snake that she had cut in two!
Suddenly, a surge of spiritual energy erupted around the green snake, which eventually transformed into a strange-looking man in green robes.
He approached Mu Run's bed, looked at Mu Run and Zhuang Zhuang who were sleeping for a while, took out a crystal-clear green branch from his pocket, placed it beside Mu Run's pillow, and then turned into a green snake and snaked away.
After leaving Chongyi Peak, it flew towards the depths of Chongyang Mountain.
Before long, they arrived at Mirror Lake, the home of the mountain god Jin Kun.
Jin Kun was drinking with Cha Bao, who looked like a little white cat, when he saw the green snake arrive and tossed it a pot of tea.
The green snake transformed back into a man in green robes, reaching out to catch the wine jug. "Thank you."
"Congratulations on becoming an immortal. It was the Human Emperor who helped you overcome your death tribulation. Your path to immortality is now bright."
"I've been searching everywhere for someone to help me through this final tribulation, but after wandering the mortal world for two hundred years, I still haven't been able to break through it." Qinglin raised his wine cup to Jinkun. "Your place is still the best. Thank you."
"You're welcome." Jin Kun hadn't expected that a human emperor would emerge from his mountain, and that he would also benefit greatly from it.
Cha Bao stood up unsteadily, "I'm going to find Run Run to play."
Jin Kun reached out and pulled him into his arms, kneading and squeezing him gently.
Cha Bao immediately rolled around happily in his palm, meowing softly.
Qinghui reached out, "Give me a massage too."
Jin Kun glanced at him.
Qinghui: "..." He awkwardly withdrew his hand.
"When are you leaving?" Jin Kun asked.
“…” Qinghui replied, “I can leave at any time.”
"Leave a clue. I'll come find you after I overcome the final tribulation."
"Who knows when it will be possible to break through? The smoother the cultivation goes before, the more difficult this tribulation will be to overcome. It was even more difficult for me than for you, and it took me two hundred years."
