Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

He was puzzled again. Generally speaking, wouldn't an object like this have to go through a blood-drip recognition process before it could protect its owner and understand the sword master's mind?

How come Ning Xianzhi's mother could use it as soon as she passed it to him?

Chu Wuji suddenly had an idea. He grasped the hilt of Mo Zhi's sword and tried to say to it:

"Can you take me flying?"

The tip of the Yuzhi sword nodded slightly to express affirmation.

Then, the flying sword, which was covered with ink, flew up a little and took Chu Wuzhi off the ground.

Chu Wu Ji concluded that if this wasn't indoors, the sword would probably have carried him into the air for a stroll!

He was a little excited: "From now on, besides the Sky Fox Goddess, I have another way to travel. I can barely fly."

Then again, as long as Chu Wuzhi climbs onto the sword and stands firmly, he would look a bit like a sword master in the eyes of others, right?

After taking a bath, he began to read those ancient martial arts books.

A book called [The True Explanation of Falcon Red Thunder Body Protection] uses acupoints as a furnace and Qi and blood as elixir to refine thunder power to protect the body. Once it is fired, there will be red thunder, like a hawk flying over, shocking the enemy away.

"Falcon Red Thunder..." It sounded familiar to Chu Wuji. Was it a famous martial art endorsed by a celebrity?

[Songhe Yannian], for health preservation and blood production, is afraid that his life span is too short.

There is also a summary book called "Martial Arts Classics", which records how ancient warriors used various weapons, boxing skills, and qi.

It can be seen that these martial arts books were not given to him just because of their value, their contents are very useful to Chu Wu Ji.

His fighting style has always been derived from the hunting movements of wild beasts and is limited to the fields of fists, kicks and physical techniques.

After all, it is impossible for the wild beasts in the mountains to suddenly stand up on their own two feet and wield swords in the middle of a fight. Chu Wuji still needs to expand these areas and learn from the experience of his predecessors.

Even if he doesn't have a suitable weapon now, the flying sword is fully automatic, but it will not prevent him from stealing the enemy's weapons in the future!

"Let's practice this [Pine Crane Longevity] first!"

There is no such thing as too much life, and this technique can also help restore Qi and blood, which is equivalent to shortening Chu Wuji's Qi and blood "weak sage" period and speeding up the lighting of the light ball in his body.

He immediately ran to the front hall and began to practice, with the flying sword Mo Zhi accompanying him, flying along with the flow of his energy.

Whenever he encountered doubts and confusions, Mo Zhi would point out his misunderstandings and answer Chu Wuji's questions with the help of the ink marks left by the sword.

"This even includes private tutoring capabilities after school?"

Chu Wuji couldn't help but mutter, could it be that Ning Xianzhi was controlling the flying sword?

He did not distract himself to ponder for too long, and continued to practice [Pine Crane Longevity]. He walked and stopped in the spacious vestibule, practicing while flipping through the book, his body moving as his mind moved, and his Qi circulated freely.

Heavy snow suddenly fell in the deep winter, but it did not hinder Chu Wuji at all. He gained more insights from the martial arts, and combined with his past observations and impressions of the ferocious beasts in the mountains and forests, his罡气 turned into various animal shapes.

He practiced until his body was like a crane, and placed two boxes of scriptures under a thousand pine trees.

And this is not a simple simulation of the appearance, but the transformation of the inner spirit of all beasts. The energy and blood in the body seem to have turned into the corresponding beast.

Chu Wuji recalled the deer king he saw when he was a child, and the blood and energy in his body began to change.

He glanced down and exclaimed, "Deer King's Qi and blood, this is truly an aphrodisiac!"

This [Pine and Crane Longevity] seems to have transformed into [Deer King Aphrodisiac] invisibly. I wonder if Ning Xianzhi's mother would scold him for his misconduct if she saw it?

For several days, Chu Wuji would practice as soon as he woke up every day, and when he was tired, he would chat with the Fox Queen, the princess, and the little princess.

Before they knew it, it was the day for Empress Wen to leave the palace to visit her relatives.

The graceful and beautiful queen was looking forward to it while sitting in the carriage. Perhaps because Princess Jing'an and Yao'er had ruined her plans several times before, Queen Wen was very nervous.

She confirmed with Si Que, "Wu Ji...is still in the palace, right?"

Si Que often traveled between the Jing'an Palace and the Queen's Palace, and was well aware of the situation inside the palace. When she thought of Chu Wuji's training process, she couldn't help but exclaim:

"Young Master has cultivated an immortal aura, like a crane, and occasionally a tiger. From time to time, the roars of various beasts can be heard in the front yard!"

Empress Wen didn't quite understand what he said, but she was very concerned about the immortal style and muttered in her heart:

"Immortal spirit? Don't become so pure and indifferent..."

Queen Wen was not just attracted by Chu Wuzhi's strong body, she was also willing to chat and spend more time with him, but she couldn't be so free of desires at such a young age, right?

The carriage entered the Prince Jing'an's Mansion. There was no one in the front yard, so Queen Wen moved to Chu Wuzhi's courtyard.

There was heavy snow falling from the sky. In the snow-covered courtyard, a young man in a black robe sat cross-legged on the snow. A cute and well-behaved little girl lay in his arms and took a nap. She didn't feel the cold because the boy's body temperature was the warmest quilt.

Beside the handsome young man, there were really all kinds of ferocious beasts transformed by the internal energy. Sometimes a crane spread its wings and walked slowly by, and sometimes a white snake spit out its tongue and slowly coiled around him.

Queen Wen walked over, quietly picked up Xiao Yaoer, then put her aside and sat in Chu Wuzhi's arms.

Wen Yaoer shivered from the cold. After she woke up, she rubbed her almond-shaped eyes and looked at the elder who was the mother of the harem in confusion. She asked hesitantly:

"aunt?"

"It's Auntie's turn for a nap, kids, go back to your room and sleep!"

The two beauties, big and small, stared at each other, with the elder showing no sign of being humble to the younger.

Chu Wuji opened his eyes, feeling somewhat helpless and ashamed, and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid that Yao'er and Princess Jing'an will find out?"

Empress Wen rolled her eyes at the young man and didn't dare to get too close to him, at least not in front of him. The Holy Empress had said not to make it too ostentatious.

Her relationship with Chu Wuji was a secret, so how could she have the nerve to let Princess Jing'an know?

She sat in Chu Wuzhi's arms so presumptuously, on the one hand because she couldn't wait, and on the other hand because she was angry with the little girl Yao'er before.

The beautiful, noble, and mature young woman glanced at Yao'er secretly, her plump red lips trembling slightly, and she said in a pretentiously indulgent tone:

"I'm not afraid, what can I do?"

After responding here, Queen Wen immediately smiled at Xiao Yaoer and said:

"Yao'er, I was wondering why you were lying here in the snow. It turns out your body temperature is so warm when you're practicing martial arts!"

Wen Yaoer then smiled sweetly again. She thought that the Queen Aunt was just surprised, so she rashly went into her brother's arms.

"Yes, when brother is practicing, his body temperature is like a furnace, so warm! Even if you hide in the quilt, you are not necessarily better than him~"

After saying that, the little girl squeezed over again and hugged Chu Wuzhi's arms together with her aunt.

Queen Wen pretended to chat with Yao'er for a while, then found an excuse to send her away, saying:

"Yao'er, go out and play first. Auntie has something important to tell Wuji. It's a secret entrusted by the Holy Empress, so it's inconvenient for others to listen in."

"Those things about gods?"

The last time Wen Yaoer went to the Holy Queen's palace for dinner, she learned that Chu Wuji had talked with the Holy Queen, the Pavilion Master and others about some important matters of the immortal world, and it seemed that they were indeed serious matters.

Although Queen Wen was angry that the little girl always did bad things, she didn't want to lie to the younger generation frequently.

She thought about it and felt a little ecstatic. Being an immortal is also a divine thing, right?

"...Yes, Yao'er, go play with Mao'er first. I'll talk to your brother later and ask him to play with you~"

"Ok!"

Wen Yaoer put on her shoes and socks, left Chu Wuzhi's yard, and ran to find the cat.

The yard became quiet. Queen Wen looked at Chu Wuji with her phoenix eyes, which seemed to be filled with grievances and tears flowing in her eyes.

"Child, are you only particularly interested in your mother's generation? Otherwise..."

When Chu Wuji heard this, he felt that it sounded familiar, as if he had heard it from different mature and beautiful women.

He was afraid that Queen Wen would also say something, which would make it difficult for him to respond in an awkward manner, so he instead grabbed her and carried her into the house, burying her in the bed.

"You're already taking it to heart before I've even finished what I'm saying?" Queen Wen was both panicked and happy.

......

Tinglei Ridge,

Approaching the southern border of the Western Regions, but not yet reaching the Western Regions.

This place is a wonder of yellow sand cliffs and oasis forests interlaced.

Because there are many towering cliffs, occasional thunder from the plain will be blocked by the high stone walls, so it is named "Tinglei Ridge".

It is said that this place often attracts some otherworldly monks to come here to transcend their tribulations.

A group of Western Region escorts were hiding nearby. Among them was a hunchbacked old man with his eyes covered. His nostrils dilated, he took a deep breath, and the sand he inhaled almost blocked his nasal cavity.

"There's a faint scent of the Holy Fire Pearl in the sand. That scorpion demon must be bringing something here. Go notify the young ladies and the others!"

----


Chapter 141: The Western Regions, a Country of Beautiful Women

A group of Western Region escorts led by Guanyin stopped briefly in Wenshui County, then left Lihuo Country and stayed in Huotang City outside the border.

This is the first city where trade routes intersect. It has convenient transportation and is well-informed. Once any news is received, it will be much easier to pass it on from here.

"Miss, there's news. Finally, there's news!"

Wardfa ran over from outside, his steps quickened, one hand covering his buttocks, his face showing a complicated expression of surprise and pain.

Guanyin and her companions were drinking goat milk tea in the house. When they saw Wardfa's expression and movements, they looked at him strangely and subtly.

Several big, strong, and fierce escorts, who had never learned to be tactful in their lives and always spoke directly about their concerns, were frightened and immediately learned to be polite. They whispered to each other:

"What's going on, Wardfa?"

"When did he develop this quirk? I've never seen anything like him before!"

"No, can't he pay a little attention to his image? Miss Guanyin is still here, can't this guy restrain himself a little?"

It's no wonder they looked weird, because in the past, several grown men slept together, thinking they were brothers who lived on the edge of a knife and had no need to be on guard.

Now that Wardfa is like this... everyone has to worry that he will stab us in the back in the middle of the night!

Another female spearman in the escort team had previously stayed in Huotang City. Her name was Nan Hongsha.

She slammed the table and scolded, "Wardfa, what have you been doing? Be more polite and decent!"

Wardfa didn't react at first. He was stunned for a moment, then realized that his companions had misunderstood him. He quickly waved his hands to explain his innocence and said:

"It's not what you think. News came from the old man. They used a fire book to send a message. I was taking a shit in the toilet at the time, and the fire book ignited the methane gas and burned my butt!"

The companions fell silent, and the male escorts breathed a sigh of relief.

Guanyin glanced at her teacup and was glad that she had finished her goat milk tea first. She clapped her hands, and the bracelet on her fair wrist made a crisp metallic clinking sound.

"Okay, let's not get off topic. What did the Fire Book say? Did you discover the aura of the Holy Fire Pearl?"

"Exactly! Over at Tinglei Ridge, the old man smelled the scent of the Holy Fire Pearl. It must be that Scorpion Demon!"

The unique thing about the old man is his ability to capture scent. This is a natural ability. As long as he remembers the scent of something, he can inhale it through his nostrils and nothing within hundreds of miles will escape his sense of smell.

Even if outsiders could smell his breath, it would be difficult for them to detect it because it had nothing to do with any magic. He was born with large nostrils and a keen sense of smell.

The great monks who had encountered the golden tablet said that their breath perception was not as good as that of the old man. If they tried hard to capture the breath, they would easily alert the target and would not be able to hide like this old man.

If the news about the Scorpion Demon came from the old man, then it's basically a sure thing!

Nan Hongsha wanted to have a cup of tea to celebrate, but when she saw Wardfa's painful expression, she immediately lost her appetite. She said in annoyance:

"The last time we caught the Scorpion Demon, we only tracked him for a short while before he was discovered. This time, we shouldn't be able to find him again."

Guanyin took out a map of the Western Regions, checked the location of Tinglei Ridge, and said:

"This Tinglei Ridge is in Black Car Country. Isn't that the country the Scorpion Demon fled to? That seems to be where she made her fortune. She's so wanted, why did she run back?"

Nan Hongsha wiped the silver spear in her hand and guessed:

"It's dark under the light. The Black Car Country is very xenophobic. Plus, the Scorpion Demon has been wandering for several years, and the wanted police have become less strict. So, it's become a good place for her to stay!"

Several other Western Region escorts agreed:

"It's said that the Black Car Country is teeming with beautiful women. Every once in a while, a painting of a beauty would go viral, attracting countless admirers and sparking curiosity. Later, the Black Car Country started to expel people because they were afraid of trouble."

"Well, I tried to bribe the gatekeepers before, but damn, they took the money but didn't let me through. Instead, they put me on the wanted list!"

There are many countries, big and small, in the Western Regions. The Black Car Kingdom is not very large. Compared with the Lihuo Kingdom, it is at most the size of a county town and a few small villages and towns. However, because it is rich in beauties, the Black Car Kingdom is a famous dream destination in the ears of the young men in the Western Regions.

It doesn’t matter if there is serious xenophobia. I can take this opportunity to sneak over and take a look!
