Chapter 283 Death Replay
Chapter 283 Death Replay
As the delicate jade hands began to exert force, condensed spiritual energy surged and the jade slips engraved with the two stories of "Tiger Entering the Account" and "Shrine of Gods and Ghosts" turned into powder... and were carried into the morning mist by the breeze.
At this moment, Shuyue gently patted the jade ashes in her little hand, raised her chin and eyebrows slightly, and looked at her husband with a little pride in her eyes.
She smiled sweetly, "If these fragmentary stories were mixed into every issue of the storybooks in various study rooms, it would certainly make it much easier to open a temple in the future."
Zhao Qing smiled at his wife's bright eyes and pretended to be surprised.
"This story is so fascinating and full of twists and turns, why did they destroy the jade slip?"
He praised her very smoothly to satisfy his wife's expectation.
Wang Shuyue's eyes flickered, and she leaned forward slightly and burrowed back into the man's arms like a little animal. She was obviously very pleased with her husband's praise.
"It's just a random thought. If you like it... Shuyue can write thousands of books for you."
"However, Shuyue must focus on her cultivation in the future. It is better to leave the writing of books for the Majesty to the scholars in the study."
Her dark eyes turned, and she raised her pretty face to press her forehead to her husband's, and then teased him, "After all, I am the patriarch, and it is very good that I can take the time to pamper you."
Zhao Qing:?
Why are you so angry all of a sudden?
Could it be that he has learned bad things?
He lowered his posture and asked softly, "Then Xiaoqing will take the sect leader back to the mountain gate?"
"Um~no!"
The woman was like an octopus, her slender arms wrapped around her husband's waist, and she slowly raised her neck and smiled seductively.
·
A few days later, it was the Si hour.
A small apricot-yellow boat transformed into a stream of light, rising from the countryside of Lunniu County and heading straight towards Shouyun Mountain.
In just half an incense stick of time, the two returned to the swamp valley on the west side of Shouyun Mountain.
Zhao Qing held his wife's soft body horizontally by her waist and jumped off the spirit boat.
It's still a long way from here to the house on the mountainside...but fortunately there is an elevator.
"Father, Qing'er is back. Please help press the elevator button."
"I'll take Shuyue back to Fufang to bathe first, and then I'll go find you at the top of the mountain."
Zhao Qing conveyed his thoughts and called him "Father" very consciously. After all, Si He did not have a good night last night.
Besides, now that their family has returned to Shouyun Mountain, the electronic pet is gone forever, so it is not a wise move to talk nonsense to its face.
"Yeah." The girl's light reply rang in my ears.
The spiritual energy around Zhao Qing and Shu Yue began to vibrate, and the marsh valley and lush forests before them seemed to be frozen...
The next moment, the two of them were transported by Si He to a house on the mountainside.
……
On the top of the mountain, the small alchemy room is very quiet.
The warm sun shines through the layers of gauze curtains, making the girl's white hair look even softer.
Si He and his aunt sat on the soft couch and played chess.
She supported her chin with her small hand, her curved eyelashes trembling slightly: "They went to take a shower, and just happened to bring us some food."
When Zhao Qing took Shuyue out for a walk, the three of them hardly ever left the alchemy room.
Watching live broadcasts with a cup of fresh fruit tea, playing poker while listening to some pleasant tunes, or chatting about some more private topics...
My aunt nodded slightly, her beautiful eyes gazing at the chessboard while her slender hands twisted the black jade chess piece.
She said calmly, "Go to the imperial kitchen and bring back some fruits."
The soft couch was pressed against the window wall.
Under the window wall, the delicate body covered by a thin blanket turned over gently, and Gu Qinghuan slowly opened her sleepy eyes.
She couldn't always stay with the two of them, so she slept until early this morning and had a good rest.
The woman raised her white wrist and rubbed her eyes. As her pink lips parted, her voice was extremely soft and languid: "Qinghuan, just eat some fruit too."
She knew that Xiaoyi and Sihe had to eat every day, mainly to keep her company.
After all, there was no spiritual energy left in her body, so it was difficult to transform the medicinal power of the Kaigu Pill. If she didn't eat, she would really starve to death.
Si He listened to Qing Huan's soft voice as she just woke up, and couldn't help but curse Zhao Qing inwardly.
"You've ruined all the good stuff!"
Zhao Qing's mind came: "What happened again?"
"It's okay, go away."
"Oh."
Qinghuan took the hot tea handed to her by her aunt and moistened her lips.
Then, she simply combed her messy hair while watching the two people playing chess.
Only when her long black hair was tied into a bun did she take the velvet towel and mane feathers and leave the alchemy room to wash.
After a moment, drops of crystal clear water rolled down the woman's beautiful face, making it white and soft.
The carefully washed velvet towel was placed on the willow branches, and the slender jade hands plucked the peach branches outside the alchemy room - even in late spring, Shouyun Mountain was still like the peach and apricot trees in the Spring Equinox.
In the warm sunshine, the twisted and beautiful peach branches are dotted with pink and white like gauze.
Breathe gently, the rich fragrance lingers around your nose, mixed with the unique and elegant scent of green willows.
Gu Qinghuan casually placed the peach blossoms on the altar, leaving them for Xiaoyi to use to make tea, while she herself drew her eyebrows in front of the mirror and simply tidied up her appearance.
The wooden chessboard makes crisp sounds from time to time, and time flows quietly.
The woman's pink lips were stained with light crimson lipstick, and her dark eyebrows were as white as smoke and a painting.
Only then did she smile and speak, uttering her second sentence since waking up: "Is the Master coming soon?"
Si He casually replied, "Half an incense stick."
"I asked him to go get some dried deer from the drunkard. The drunkard and Kong Yang ate it all night that day. I think it should taste good."
The girl inadvertently glanced at Gu Qinghuan's bright eyes and sighed slightly in her heart.
Qinghuan is soft and tender when she just wakes up, and she is dazed but also cute and innocent. That is the real best!
Zhao Qing had a lonely time!
...At least that's what she thought.
at the same time.
As soon as Zhao Qing walked out of the gate of Courtyard No. 7, he asked Brother Li for a lot of snacks, mostly savory and spicy.
He guessed that Si He must have seen it when Brother Li took it out to eat with wine, but due to the status of the Queen, it was not easy to snatch it away openly... He could only let him pass it on to others.
Shuyue was still choosing clothes in the bedroom.
Zhao Qing didn't go back to pick her up, but went directly to the foot of the mountain to pick fresh fruits and vegetables.
Afterwards, he snatched some candied fruit and pine nuts from Luo Xianning's hand... before muttering silently in his heart: "TP."
As expected, he and Shuyue were transported to the small alchemy room at the same time.
With Si He on the mountain, their family can experience the joy of instant transmission at any time. This is a method that at least only Nascent Soul cultivators have the opportunity to practice.
·
The family of five gathered neatly around the bed - the four women were on the bed, Zhao Qing was sitting on the floor... there was really no room left.
In the already small alchemy room, there was a bed, an alchemy platform, and a square table.
It was originally intended for Qinghuan to use when she was refining pills alone, but now that it has accommodated five people, there is almost no extra space for movement.
My aunt prepared five cups of iced fruit tea. Today's is peach flavor, which looks very good.
Frost crystals hung on the jade cup, and a hint of pink was faintly visible.
A chessboard made of bitter pear wood floated in mid-air, with several piles of snacks placed on it.
Salty, fragrant and chewy venison jerky is Si He’s new favorite.
Pine nuts, crispy dates, and candied fruits... This is Qinghuan's breakfast, Xiaoyi and Shuyue also like to eat these.
Zhao Qing accepted everything and ate whatever Qinghuan and Shuyue fed him. He was a well-behaved and obedient boy and not a picky eater.
The white-haired girl leaned against the bed, chewing candied fruit with her cheeks puffed out, and said vaguely, "Are you going to practice?"
I'm going to practice! ?
Do I have to practice at this time?
Under Zhao Qing's silent gaze, Si He took out a jade table and placed it right in the middle of the couch.
"Shuyue, try my new mahjong!"
"This time we used Lu Qing's equipment, which can block spiritual detection."
Wow…
The four women were talking and laughing, and the cold jade piece was passed from one white and delicate hand to another.
They ate dried meat and candied fruit, drank iced drinks and played cards.
The windows were covered by layers of gauze curtains, and the alchemy room was very dark - just like Zhao Qing's mood at the moment.
He couldn't help but ask himself.
Why can’t I even muster the thought of practicing cultivation now?
Is it because I eat too much free food?
Just at this moment, Gu Qinghuan fluttered her phoenix eyes, gently knocked down the cards she had arranged, and curled up her delicate body in the corner.
"Master, let Qinghuan massage your shoulders..."
Zhao Qing immediately smiled.
good good!
He walked up to the bed, pressed Xiaoyi's head hard, and kicked Shuyue's butt to vent his anger.
Then he took Qinghuan's delicate body into his arms and took her place in playing mahjong.
So delicious...
The aunt tapped the jade table lightly with her slender fingers and chuckled, "Your card skills are not as good as Qinghuan's."
Si He casually threw out a two-digit card and conveyed his thoughts to Zhao Qing.
"Why are you staying here with us instead of going to practice?"
Zhao Qing: ...
Can't I enjoy this too?
Si He's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he asked in his heart: "You want to steal my wife?"
???
"Please make it clear, this is my wife."
"It's mine now."
"That's impossible!"
The two of them continued to bicker in private as usual, but Zhao Qing had obviously restrained himself a lot. He didn't want to be lectured by Si He in front of Qinghuan.
It's obvious that in this family, my aunt is at the top of the food chain...
My aunt pondered the cards in her hand and said casually, "I will send a message to the Zhou family to arrange for the Ministry of Rites to carefully compile the script of Empress Si You's speech."
"Just follow Shuyue's plan this morning."
Wang Shuyue nodded lightly.
He then asked, "Is it possible to annotate some common boxing and kicking techniques, leave a signature on them, and spread them widely in the State of Chu?"
Upon hearing this, Si Heyan, who was originally leisurely, frowned slightly.
Doesn't this lower my status?
She shook her head and chuckled, "There's no need to annotate mundane books."
"Once the incense offerings are sufficient, I will start to make some jade tablets and jade pieces old, and set up some secret treasures for the Chu State."
"Let those innate warriors, and even those casual cultivators who have trained themselves in Qi and established their foundation, collect the secrets of the broken tablets and search for the ancient treasures of Siyou."
Zhao Qing looked stunned and shocked.
Man-made opportunities?
The white-haired girl sensed this thought and looked back with a smile in her bright eyes, saying, "No matter what the opportunity is."
"If someone were to find Siyou's secret treasures, a cave for practicing spiritual stones and techniques, and a complete set of elixir, talismans, and formation tools... maybe they could even attract some followers of the immortal way."
"Um……"
She hesitated for a moment and said, "It can't all be cultivation resources. Some worldly gold and silver must be placed there as well."
"By then, the stories of the Siyou Sect will be spread everywhere, from ancient villages in desolate mountains to spiritual springs in the desert. They will be more useful than ordinary stories."
Zhao Qing was silent for a long time.
I muttered to myself, “Why are you so skilled?”
