Chapter 423: Extra : The Clouds Are Like Dreams and the Fragrance of Spirits Is Misty (Part )
The little deaf boy was still in a daze, but he saw a group of fairy children running towards the main hall in groups of two or three, chattering loudly, and no one knew what they were arguing about.
In the past, the little deaf boy would definitely not join in the fun, but perhaps because he had seen too many interesting things in the world, this time he followed along for the first time.
After all, he was still a boy from Tushita Palace, wasn't he? What if something good happened?
The little deaf boy made excuses for himself while squeezing into the main hall with the crowd.
In the main hall, Laojun sat cross-legged with his eyes closed and remained silent, with two young boys, Jin Ling and Yin Ling, serving on his left and right.
Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Jin and Yin looked at each other and then explained the reason for gathering everyone together.
It turned out that Laojun wanted to refine a furnace of immortal medicine recently. This medicine was extremely rare and had to be refined using the Three Talents Formation. As a result, the two of them were too busy to do it, so they had to choose another boy from the group to carefully watch over the fire.
This is a rare opportunity. If the elixir is successfully refined, maybe I can become a servant in the main hall like the two boys, gold and silver.
If one could become a servant in the main hall, he would have attained the status of an immortal, and it is possible that he would attain enlightenment and be deified in the future.
No wonder a group of boys were trying so hard to squeeze their heads in. The little deaf boy pouted and drooped his head, looking dejected.
The little deaf boy was not keen on becoming a god or an immortal. He felt that his current life was good enough and there was no need to fight for anything. It would not matter even if he was a housecleaner for the rest of his life.
After hearing what Jin and Yin said, all the boys perked up and looked serious, each of them looking as if no one else could do the job except themselves.
In comparison, the little deaf boy looked much more abrupt. He sat there with a bashful look on his face, looking as if it had nothing to do with him.
Jin and Yin looked at each other helplessly: This job is really not easy!
But in the end, this task still fell on the little deaf boy...
In the words of Jin and Yin, the little deaf boy is too lazy on weekdays and it's time for him to focus on his studies.
The little deaf man said nothing, but he had no idea that this was the excuse that Jin and Yin had racked their brains to come up with.
So, after three days of meditation, the little deaf boy reluctantly entered the alchemy room.
Although he is said to be watching over the fire, that is not entirely the case. Most of the time he just fans it casually to fool people.
The Bagua furnace uses the Liu Ding divine fire, and is mostly controlled by Laojun himself, with the two children, gold and silver, assisting him on his left and right.
What the little deaf boy needed to do was to add materials, and Jin and Yin were the ones who told him what to put in and when.
So the job isn't that difficult.
But it's boring.
So it was natural that the little deaf boy would be in a daze again.
But every time at this time, either the Golden Spirit would order people to add more firewood, or the Silver Spirit would remind people to add some medicine. They would never let the little deaf boy have any time to rest.
It wasn’t so troublesome to watch the fire in the past, why is it so troublesome today?
Just when the little deaf boy was about to give up out of doubt, Laojun suddenly spoke.
"it's time……"
The whispered words unexpectedly woke up the deaf boy.
it's time to? when?
Laojun flicked his whisk, and the lid of the Bagua furnace flew up. Then he raised his hand and a green grass floated into the furnace.
It’s spiritual incense!
Perhaps because it has left the soil, the fragrance does not seem as fresh as before, but it is still green, with scattered small flowers blooming wantonly, as if unaware of its impending fate.
Looking at the incense getting closer and closer to the Bagua furnace, the little deaf boy looked dazed, not knowing what he was thinking.
Suddenly, with an inexplicable impulse, the little deaf boy jumped up, embraced Lingxiang, and held it in his arms.
All these happened in a flash, and Laojun didn't seem to expect it. After he reacted, his snow-white beard flew up to the sky.
"Yunxu! What are you doing!"
Jin and Yin also came to their senses and shouted to stop them.
I have never seen Laojun like this before, he is obviously very angry.
The little deaf boy was startled, but he could not explain it clearly. He looked down at Lingxiang with a determined look.
I still remember that Laojun once told him that all plants and trees have spirits, and their final destination is to return to dust and mud, and the same is true for all things.
But since it has spirituality, it should not be slaughtered so casually!
The little deaf boy seemed to have made up his mind. He found strength from nowhere and broke through the palace door and rushed out.
Before he left, he could still hear Laojun beating his chest and stamping his feet in the hall, but the little deaf boy didn't care about that.
He didn't want the incense to be refined!
Although I don't know where this emotion comes from, Laojun once said that we should follow our original heart before we can achieve enlightenment.
So he wanted to run and take Lingxiang away from here.
The chaos in the main hall soon spread throughout the entire Tushita Palace. Upon hearing the news, a group of boys joined the team to catch the deaf boy.
The little deaf boy had nowhere to hide, so he took advantage of the other boys not paying attention and quickly ran out of the Tushita Palace.
But they were still seen by Jin Ling and Yin Ling. They shouted to catch the man, and a group of people rushed out to chase him.
If we catch him, it would be a great achievement and it will definitely be recorded in front of Laojun.
The deaf boy had never been out of the Tushita Palace, so how could he know where to run? In his panic, he ran for an unknown amount of time before arriving at the gate of a temple.
The plaque on the door reads "Tianfu Palace", which means it is the palace of the Star God of Life. I heard that this person is not easy to deal with!
The little deaf man hurried to leave, but when he turned around he saw Jin Ling and Yin Ling. He had no choice but to rush into Tianfu Palace.
Tianfu Palace is unlike Tushita Palace. It has only one main hall, a pond and three trees, one with gold leaves, one with jade leaves, and one with colored glaze leaves.
The colored glaze leaves were like cicada wings, with a few sparse and tinkling leaves and clearly visible patterns.
If it were any other time, the little deaf boy would definitely stop and watch, but now that someone was chasing him, how could he care about these things?
But there is nowhere to hide now!
We can't just go into the main hall. If we meet the God of Destiny, we will have to hand him over to Laojun, right?
The little deaf boy was extremely anxious, but the people behind him had already caught up with him, and Yin Ling even grabbed his robe.
The deaf boy made up his mind, tore off his outer robe, and jumped into the pool.
This frightened Yin Ling, and he quickly shouted "little deaf boy" and pretended to rescue him, but Jin Ling stopped him.
"He's already jumped, why bother putting on a show?"
Yin Ling rubbed his nose in dissatisfaction - he finally got such an opportunity, why didn't he let him show his talents?
The water in Tianfu Palace is called Zhuoguang Lake. It is not an ordinary lake water. It is used for the gods in heaven to experience tribulations and attain enlightenment. It is said that it is connected to Zhuoguang Mountain in the lower world.
As the deaf boy was sinking, two divine lights flashed. They were Laojun and Ziwei Emperor.
"Oh my, I finally tricked this kid into going down." Emperor Ziwei spoke impatiently before he even stood still.
Laojun looked indifferent, without any trace of the angry look he had just had in the Tushita Palace. He just picked up a leaf that had fallen on the ground.
It's the angelica leaf.
It was probably wiped off by the deaf boy in a panic when he was trying to break free just now.
Laojun sighed, with a look of compassion on his face.
That fragrant grass is also pitiful!
"When you brought Yunxu here, I was worried that his Yang soul was missing and he would become stupid and rude in the future. I didn't expect you to find his Taiguang soul and bury it in my palace."
Laojun said this with a sigh, but Emperor Ziwei did not answer him, but just looked at Zhuoguang Pond.
The little deaf boy is exactly the remnant soul that Emperor Ziwei brought from the underworld to the upper world, and this remnant soul is exactly the soul of the descendant of King Di Xin of Man.
In the Shang Palace, the concubine who was beheaded was pregnant with twins, one of whom was a deaf boy.
After the Battle of Muye, Emperor Ziwei foresaw the chaos in future generations, so he secretly went to the underworld, trying to find the souls of the two children.
But unfortunately, he had already left the underworld at that time, so it was inconvenient for him to interfere too much, so he only found one of them later, that is, the little deaf man.
This is probably the balance of power of nature.
Just like the black and white of Tai Chi, if there is one, there will be two. The way of balance applies to all things.
The wrath of the king must be resolved by the king's descendants. How can others interfere? Otherwise, the chaos of King Zhou of Shang will repeat itself.
As for the herb of spiritual grass, it was a ray of yang soul that Emperor Ziwei had gone through great pains to find.
That's why the little deaf boy always liked to sit under the sacred tree in the Tushita Palace and daydream.
Fortunately, over time, the soul and the spirit have long since become one.
But I didn't expect that the remaining soul could actually turn into a magic grass and become intelligent, which led to the current plan.
The Emperor of Ziwei was indeed not wrong. The little deaf boy was indeed kind-hearted, which was naturally inseparable from the subtle teaching of Laojun.
"The road ahead is long and difficult!" Emperor Ziwei also sighed helplessly.
Laojun picked up the leaf, pondered for a moment, then took out an object, dissolved the leaf into it, and threw it into Zhuoguang Lake.
The object was none other than an incense burner used as a basin for burning incense.
As soon as the stove entered the water, it turned into a golden light and flew towards the underworld at a very fast speed following the place where the little deaf man disappeared.
As soon as the little deaf boy entered the water, he felt extremely suffocated, but despite this, he still held the herb tightly.
Just like that, it keeps sinking...sinking...
Until a flash of golden light came by, catching the deaf boy off guard and the fragrant grass slipped out of his hand.
The little deaf boy hurriedly tried to grab the herb again, but the more panicked he became, the harder it was to catch it.
Gradually, the little deaf boy lost his strength.
As darkness fell, a voice faintly came to my ears:
"Yunxu, Yunxu, when you reach the lower realm, you must find me..."
The little deaf boy didn't know whose voice it was, he just thought it sounded very nice, but he couldn't open his eyes. The sense of chaos, like the water around him, was getting heavier... heavier...
A few years later, a baby boy was born in the Nan Huailong family. Two years later, a baby's cry was heard in Xianyunju on Qingwei Peak.
There were also two more leaves on the tree in Tianfu Palace, one jade leaf and one glazed leaf.
The strange thing is that these two leaves overlap each other, connecting the jade branch and the glass branch together...
