Chapter 69 Thoughts

On Mount Longhu, at the highest point of the back mountain.

Tiannv Ba, dressed in a white Daoist robe with her long hair flowing down and a gentle expression, watched the Qing-shirted Daoist disappear. She seemed lost in thought. The aura behind her subtly shifted, the deliberate leakage of the approaching presence. Soon after, Yinglong Gengchen stood behind Nv Ba.

"What are you looking at?"

Nv Ba didn't turn her head, but said gently:

"I was thinking, there really are many things that even the Kunlun Mirror can't reflect."

Yinglong was puzzled: "Hmm??"

Nv Ba smiled playfully, "For example, hmm, why are you so gentle to every woman?"

Gengchen's expression faltered, a wry smile on his face.

Nv Ba turned around, her hands behind her back, her steps light. She murmured to herself, reciting softly, "Among the immortals, Gueshe welcomes Yaoji, a fragrant array embraces the road."

Gengchen didn't understand, but followed behind Nv Ba with a smile, casually saying, "This poem describes Kunlun's Fourth Heavenly Daughter, Gueshe, planting immortal herbs and strange flowers along the road on Jade Mountain, welcoming her elder sister Yaoji back to the mountain."

"Why did you suddenly recite this poem?"

Nv Ba recalled the Daoist's answer just now, and couldn't help but smile again, the corners of her mouth curving higher and higher. She kept laughing and said:

"Guess?"

Outside the Zhenyao Museum.

The white-haired Daoist, Yu Xu Yuanshi, stood at the door, reaching out to press on it. Suddenly, he thought of a fatal question—he had said that he had a crush on someone thousands of years ago to clear his name.

But, what would Nv Ba do?

She was the fiery type!

Would she tell Jue about this?

The thought of this happening made the Daoist freeze.

He suddenly thought of another story he had heard—someone who lectured his wife on the old feudal idea of "marrying a wife for virtue, and a concubine for beauty," sounding very reasonable. As a result, after his wife's starry-eyed applause, she asked, "Then what did you marry me for?"

Instant kill.

Saying "for virtue" meant she thought he wasn't good-looking. Saying "for beauty" meant he thought she was stupid.

So that brother sat at the door smoking all night, pondering the origins of the world, the secrets of humanity, and feeding a swarm of mosquitoes, seriously considering a proposal to completely exterminate mosquitoes.

The white-haired Daoist fell into contemplation.

Should he say that he had someone he liked back then?

Or should he say that he liked Jue back then? Either way felt like a dead end.

Yuanshi Tianzun stopped thinking.

Inside the room, the girl who had successfully fooled the Lord of Guixu and returned to the museum as an "official Guixu Walker," was also lost in thought as she brewed herself a cup of flower tea.

"So, Abyss can have multiple wives and concubines?"

"Did I 'harm' him, then?"

"If he hadn't met me, he could have had a happy life..."

"Well, maybe?"

The girl paused, trying to equate having children in old age with a happy life.

She rubbed her temples. She had repeatedly calculated fate before, but according to the calculations, Yuan shouldn't have these entanglements. After many calculations, his fate was that of a solitary star destined to face tribulations and transform misfortune. She thought for a moment, took out the jade talisman, and was slightly stunned to see a character silently written in the lower right corner of the original mission summary on the jade talisman. [Fake].

The aloof girl was momentarily at a loss, with many doubts in her heart, but she breathed a sigh of relief.

In that case, she only needed to temporarily conceal the matter of Guixu.

Otherwise, if Yuan found out that she was the one who taught him the basics of swordsmanship...

And made him call her "teacher" for ten years, and bullied him until he cried for more than three years...

No!

The aloof girl raised her hand to press her temples, her ears turning red. She felt that if something like that was discovered, she would probably cover her face and run back to Kunlun Mountain, and not come down for a thousand, no, two thousand years.

Kunlun Wangmu stopped thinking.

While Wei Yuan was pondering, a familiar voice suddenly came. The water ghost, dressed in black, shouted, "Wait, Vodka, you stop right there! Tell me, what do you want to do to me?!"

"I, I just want you to be a model."

"I provided the clothes, and, and I'm paying you!"

The black-haired, sloppily dressed water ghost angrily slammed the table and pointed to the Lolita dress, the openwork white silk, and the long row of Hanfu. The veins on his forehead bulged. "This is what I'm supposed to wear?!"

The artist guiltily looked away.

"They're, they're all ghosts, don't mind these things. And, my painting needs two people, Bai Ze is one, you, you look okay, so help me out."

"A, at worst, you wear women's clothes."

"I'll wear men's clothes."

"We're even!"

Water ghost: "..."

He looked at the girl artist in her home sportswear, the veins on his forehead bulging.

"I believe you, my ghost!"

The water ghost stormed down the stairs, stormed out, and then, without hesitation, reached out and slammed the door open, only to be stunned to see the white-haired Daoist outside, standing there with dew on his clothes, not knowing how long he had been standing there.

"Ah, Boss, you're back?!"

Under Yuanshi Tianzun's sluggish gaze, the water ghost shouted without hesitation.

Then he turned around and shouted at the girl who was deep in thought, "Miss Jue, Madam Boss, the boss is back!"

Jue: ...

Wei Yuan: "..."

Just as the water ghost was about to leave in a huff, Vodka finally made a decision, ran out of the閣樓, stood on the stairs, and pointed forward with the paintbrush in her hand, her sharp edges exposed, and shouted loudly, "I'll add money!!!"

At that moment, the girl artist, who was less than 1.6 meters tall and had a delicate and beautiful face, seemed infinitely tall.

The water ghost returned to his original position in a flash, grabbed the girl's wrist with both hands and shook it heavily.

"Happy cooperation!"

The water ghost happily went to complete the task.

Wei Yuan had no choice but to face the heavenly maiden in front of him. The two of them sat on either side of the table, and for a moment they were silent, holding tea, only seeing the fragrance of the tea curling up.

The Daoist was thinking about Nv Ba's questions and concerns.

"What if Jue finds out that I used to like her swordsmanship teacher?"

Although I had no memory of it at all back then. It can be completely regarded as amnesia.

But, but...

The girl held the tea, maintaining a cold expression on her face.

"What if Yuan finds out that I not only went to Guixu, but also became his swordsmanship teacher when he was a child?"

Although he probably doesn't remember things from that long ago now. But what if he remembers?

The two of them were silent, both feeling a strange sense of guilt. Then they suddenly said at the same time, "Ah, right, I have something to give..."

"I remembered, I have a gift for Yuan."

"You go first."

"You go first."

Wei Yuan and Jue looked at each other in silence, and then suddenly laughed. The Daoist sighed and said, "Then let's do it together. Here, this is actually something I got from Nv Ba. As for this piece of clothing, I bought it from the Leizu tribe last week."

The Daoist placed the jade hairpin on the table.

Then he handed over the carefully selected clothing from the Leizu tribe.

The heavenly maiden took out a jade pendant, which was actually the core of the Jade Mountain treasured by the Lord of Guixu.

There were natural landscape patterns in it. She handed it over and said, "Yuan, you don't seem to have a jade pendant."

Wei Yuan casually hung the jade pendant on his waist. He saw the girl holding the hairpin and the tea, her eyes slightly closed. He vaguely sensed that the pure and turbid energy in the girl's body had indeed changed, and there was a possibility of imbalance. The existence of this jade hairpin could just help her suppress the turbid energy.

"Let me help."

The white-haired Daoist subconsciously opened his mouth, and then saw Jue stunned and pointed to the hairpin, saying:

"I'll put it in your hair?"

The Way of Karma can directly put this spiritual treasure in the most appropriate place.

Jue thought for a moment, her face slightly flushed, and nodded. She reached out and pulled out her original hairpin, and a head of black hair fell smoothly. The Daoist picked up the hairpin, walked behind the girl, and helped her put up her hair. His movements were gentle, and he could faintly smell the fragrance of her hair. He saw the girl's fair neck and...

The Daoist raised his eyes, not letting his gaze fall.

The feeling of black hair flowing through his fingers was like a gentle breeze wrapping around him.

His mind was calm and peaceful, putting up her hair was just a normal thing.

It was just that the turbid energy that was flowing was directly suppressed, and the pure energy greatly increased. [Words become law].

So-called every move is in accordance with karma.

Strictly speaking, it should be that karma actively attaches to his every move.

The girl touched the hairpin and helped him adjust the position of the jade pendant, asking, "How long will you stay in the human world this time?"

"About five or six days?"

The Daoist rubbed his temples and smiled, "After that, I have some things to deal with. I will go to Buzhou Mountain in the Great Wilderness to preach to the four directions. Actually, it's a preliminary attempt to spread my Great Dao to the outside world and take the first step in condensing the Dao body by relying on the feedback from all things."

It's too empty now.

Gathering forms a shape, and scattering becomes gas.

How can we get married like this, damn it.

Wei Yuan casually told her about his future plans, saying, "Anyway, there will probably be some Guixu guys appearing. That Lord of Guixu always uses this kind of thing from mortals. At that time, I will actively cut off the path of the Guixu Walker and teach them a lesson."

"I am the Guixu Walker..."

The girl was slightly guilty.

Although she didn't want to do it on her own initiative.

Moreover, she also planned to find traces of the Queen Mother of the West in the past history, so Jue had the idea of continuing to take risks. But sure enough, the goal of the Lord of Guixu is Yuan.

Jue rubbed her temples and recalled the Heavenly level enlightenment that those who participated in special missions could experience when she left Guixu before, and the afterimage that she finally saw, which was obviously a certain white-haired Daoist.

It was absolutely impossible to expose Wei Yuan.

But it seemed a bit of a pity to cut off the line of the Lord of Guixu like this. After all, he was only one step away from the top ten peaks.

The aloof girl thought for a while and said, "A Yuan, your path..." Wei Yuan casually said, "Karma."

Sure enough.

"Then, A Yuan, what kind of opponent do you most want to meet, or in other words, what kind of opponent do you like the most?" The girl asked in a gentle tone. The Daoist thought for a while and said a little uncertainly, "Probably someone who is rich and can pick up corpses."

???

Jue couldn't help but laugh and said, "Then, what kind of opponent are you best at dealing with?"

Wei Yuan thought for a while, "Best at dealing with? Um, brute force?"

The white-haired Daoist said, "For example, if the other party thinks that I only know brute force and take the path of breaking through laws with force and proving the Dao with force, then, like facing a god like Chongli, they would generally use methods such as 'Heavenly Secrets Obscuring' and 'Karma Reconnecting' to restrain me, right?"

"If I could really choose, I really hope that my opponent thinks that I am taking this path."

"Then they will painstakingly prepare Heavenly Secrets and conceptual karma to deal with me."

"As a result, they finally find that all the means and magic weapons they prepared to deal with me are what I am good at. Even if the other party's strength is not much different from mine, under this kind of power restraint, I will be quickly defeated and killed."

The white-haired Daoist's mouth showed a Tu Shan clan's unique smile.

Then he shook his head and regretted, "However, where in the world is there such a stupid opponent?"

"Attacking my strengths with their weaknesses."

The aloof girl nodded, "Maybe there will be one." Of course, there will be.

The Daoist complained:

"No, I see clearly, I can't do such an opponent and picking up money."

The aloof girl reached out and patted the Daoist's white hair, comforting him in a gentle voice:

"There will be."

"There will be everything."

"This is the blessing of Heaven, cough, the Queen Mother of the West."

Wei Yuan just thought that the girl was comforting him, smiled, chatted for a while, and loudly asked the others what they wanted to eat. Then he took the initiative to put on an apron, walked into the kitchen, thought for a while, took off the jade pendant and put it away first, and then put on the apron and started cooking.

The girl slowly walked to her flower shop.

Closed the door.

She took off her shoes and stepped on the black carpet with her bare white feet, walking lightly and silently.

She recalled that there was also a "Heavenly level enlightenment" in her previous rewards.

It overlapped.

The goal of the Lord of Guixu was Yuan, and this Heavenly level enlightenment was also about Yuan's path.

The aloof girl closed the windows and curtains, relaxed and sat on the chair, biting a piece of potato chip in her mouth. Then she flicked her fingers, and the Heavenly level enlightenment appeared. She thought for a while and directly began to "tamper" with the energy with her own magic.

Um, erase most of the pictures, only retain the true meaning.

Then add a little bit of flowing wind and thunder.

Then highlight the overbearing and majestic force of breaking through the laws with force.

She added a little bit of Yuan's current aura, and then twisted it so that it was not even qualified for divination, and could only prove that it was a real thing. Then she would use this to deal with the Lord of Guixu. After all, it was the same as the power that the Lord of Guixu had experienced before, and it had even more aura.

The Lord of Guixu, with his domineering personality but also with the shadow of being defeated, would definitely believe it.

The aloof girl nodded with satisfaction.

Then she looked at herself in the mirror, her skin fair, her features cold. She reached out and touched the hairpin, a hint of blush appeared on her face, and she smiled. She walked lightly on the carpet with her bare feet, rotating and stepping, as if she was holding her own solo dance party in this flower shop with antique furniture.

Finally, she turned her steps lightly, and her body rotated a week, and her skirt fluttered.

Then she slammed down on the bed and buried herself in the soft quilt, giggling secretly.

It was rare to have a museum dinner, but it was a pity that Yuanjue was not there. However, Wei Yuan also guessed that Yuanjue would definitely go to the Buzhou Mountain Jade Void Palace. As for why?

Because he was following Hudi.

And Hudi would never let go of such a big fun!

This is called the "Law of Convergence of Fun People."

Yuanshi Tianzun said to himself, and then washed the dishes and chopsticks, wiped his hands clean, and returned to his quiet room. He still had some things to do next, about the many secrets hidden in ancient history, Nvwa's two disappearances, Fuxi's reason for leaving the human world and going to the outer sea alone, and Houtu's whereabouts.

He had to ask Fuxi all of them.

Although he didn't know how much truth and how many lies he would tell. And...

Old thing, you beat me very happily.

The corners of Yuanshi Tianzun's mouth curled up.

Sorry, I've upgraded.

ps: Today's first update.
