Chapter 144: The Senior Sister Cultivates the Way of Ruthlessness (31)
The Hongmeng Tree obviously did not expect to encounter such a situation, but it reacted extremely quickly. As it landed on the top of the mountain, a closed formation suddenly rose up.
All those who came with them to Shuoyue City were isolated outside the formation.
As the distance to Yun Zhen got closer, the Hongmeng Tree no longer used the formation, but directly used the power of the contract to come to Yun Zhen's courtyard.
And those people lost the trace of pursuit in an instant.
Yun Zhen was grinding seasonings at this time.
"I've never seen a cultivator who loves food so much." Sister Liu sat on a rocking chair in Yun Zhen's courtyard and picked up a piece of peeled fruit. "The key is that he not only likes it, but also insists on learning how to make it himself."
"Shuoyue City is nice, but it is a mortal realm after all. I will probably have to move to another place soon." Yun Zhen put down the millstone in her hand and looked at her house. "I have lived here for a long time, and this matchmaker has been coming more frequently recently."
Speaking of this, Sister Liu also felt annoyed.
I had an old illness before, so it was better for me to wear the skin of an old woman.
Now that my injuries have healed and I've regained my original appearance, it's basically useless to say that I'm a widow.
Sister Liu previously told others that she was a relative of Grandma Liu, and that the elders in her family had taken Grandma Liu back to her hometown to live out her old age. Sister Liu was a newly widowed woman, and she came to look for a house for Grandma Liu and to relax.
It was originally just an excuse, but now it has become "fat meat" in the eyes of many people in this city.
Of course, Yun Zhen is still number one on the “fat meat” list.
After all, these two people have the ability to make a living, are good-looking, and have a house.
The area surrounding Shuoyue City is desolate and the population is not large, so the city lord has always advocated that widows remarry to increase the population, but it is only encouraged and not mandatory.
"Sister Liu, when you were traveling around the mortal world a few years ago, did you find any fun places? If not, let's go to another place!" After saying this, Yun Zhen remembered the reason why Sister Liu stayed in Shuoyue City. "Sorry, I forgot about it."
"It's okay. It's just that I can't wait for him. I'm just here to keep a memory of him." Sister Liu waved her hand and said, "The year I sent him away, I knew he would never come back.
It is said that people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Once you have reached the place you long for, how can you possibly look back? You must know that the first sword to become an immortal is to kill the one you love first. "
"But the one who can do this must not be the one you love." Yun Zhen sighed softly, "Maybe it's just a life-saving straw, or maybe there is no better choice."
After hearing this, Sister Liu was slightly stunned. After a long while, she nodded and said, "You are right. From the day he planned to leave, he probably never thought of turning back."
In an instant, a feeling of sadness spread invisibly throughout the yard.
"Zhenzhen, quickly bring out your good wine for this tree!" The Hongmeng Tree's excited voice rang out, "I brought a friend here today, give us some delicious food, he can eat it even if I can't."
Looking at the tree and the baby that appeared out of nowhere, Yun Zhen was a little overwhelmed. However, Xiao Qi, the colorful silkworm who had been playing "rolling the ball by himself" recently, spoke first: "Oh! It's Master Hongmeng Tree! Who is the person next to you!
It smells so good! Could it be the same species as yours? Does it have leaves? Can you give me a few to try? "
Sister Liu really couldn't hold it back. She was obviously a little sad just now, but after being disturbed by these funny guys, she didn't even have tears.
"Did you hear that?" The Hongmeng tree tapped Fulu with its branches. "My friends have good taste and can smell your scent right away. Give me some leaves as a greeting gift."
Fulu was not too pretentious, but the gourd vine did not have many leaves, so he only took out a few leaves.
However, because it takes a long time to grow, each leaf is about the size of a cattail leaf fan.
The soul-gathering cup that Xiao Qi was in flew up and down excitedly, and was about to put the leaf into its pocket, but Yun Zhen took the leaf away.
"You are a silkworm, so just eat mulberry leaves." Yun Zhen looked at the gourd leaves full of spiritual energy and immediately thought of the Qiankun gourd that Hongmeng Tree used to hold wine. "How rude! It can't eat these leaves."
"It's okay. I've already blessed the leaves with magic power. Even if the leaves are separated from the body, they won't wither and rot." Fulu waved his hand nonchalantly. "It's just a few leaves. It's not a big deal."
Looking at the little kid's "sage" look, Yun Zhen felt that this friend of Hongmeng Tree was really adorable.
"See? Give me the edible stuff." Xiao Qi's dissatisfied voice came from the soul-gathering cup again.
Yun Zhen handed the leaves over: "Eat a little each time. It's just a small amount of soul. Don't burst yourself and have to gather soul all over again."
After saying that, she knocked on the soul-gathering cup with her hand. Although she didn't say anything, Xiao Qi knew what she meant.
"Well, I took your leaves. What kind of silk do you want?" Xiao Qi's voice was a little painful. "I don't have much of that lucky silk in stock. If you're not in a hurry, you can wait for me for a while."
"I heard from Xiaoshu that you have a kind of black silk that can bring bad luck to people." Fulu showed his "uniqueness" and said, "If possible, I want that kind of silk."
