Chapter 329 New Pangshan
When Shen Xiuming fled from Zhiyong Institute, even though he was in a hurry, he still did not forget to rush into the warehouse and take away a large bag of seeds. It was these seeds that laid the foundation of Shen Garden. s.-o-.
But there were still too few seeds. Pangshan Taoist priests, especially Yang Qingyin, were of great help. She personally went to various Taoist lineages, without asking for reinforcements, magic weapons, let alone retaking the Pangshan ancestral land. She only needed a few seeds. For this A simple request that no one can refuse.
Shen Yuan expanded rapidly, and from the third year onwards it was able to meet most of the needs of Pangshan's elixir department. From then on, Shen Xiuming received more help from Pangshan, and those flowers and plants that needed magic nourishment could also be They are in full bloom in Shen Garden, and he hopes that in ten years, his flowers and plants will even be sold to other orthodox traditions.
Shen Xiuming cherished this opportunity very much. Although he hired a large number of flower farmers, he still did everything himself. From seed selection, sowing to picking, you can see his busy figure. Therefore, he was also the first to discover the flower with the word Ye people.
As soon as he saw the words "Nianxin Disciple", Shen Xiuming immediately became alert and collected the petals without telling anyone. Then, there were more and more petals and leaves with the words, many of which were discovered by flower farmers. Shen Xiuming calmly claimed that this was a characteristic of Taoist flowers and plants. Most of the flower farmers were illiterate, so they had no doubts about this.
After more than fifty flowers and leaves with words had accumulated, Shen Xiuming felt that he had to let Mu Xingqiu come over to take a look, "Taoist Pangshan often comes here to cast spells. Sooner or later, you will know about the existence of these things, but I want you to see them first." ”
"Where do the seeds of these flowers and plants come from?" Mu Xingqiu did not notice that there was anything special about these petals and leaves with words on them.
"Not necessarily, there are some that I brought from Pangshan Zhiyong, and some that I brought from other traditions, and they have been cultivated for several generations, and they only have writing since last year. Brother Xiaoqiu, what does this mean? Is someone threatening you?"
Mu Xingqiu smiled and shook his head, "I guess this is a prank."
In fact, what he was thinking of was the little demon who had disappeared. She was the only one who had shared his thoughts with him. But this matter was too complicated to explain, and he didn't want Shen Xiuming to worry about it.
"Is it my mother? This seems like something she can do. Shen Xiuming nodded thoughtfully. Although Yang Qingyin was of great help to Shen Yuan, he was still a little afraid of her. "But apart from sending seeds, she rarely does anything. Xiao Qingtao often comes to my place. She likes my boy and says she will be his protector from now on. But I think this guy has a temper like mine, even if he enters Pang Mountain. It may not be possible to condense Qi into elixir..."
Xiao Hao and Bald Man were chasing chickens and ducks outside. Then they came in and saw the petals and leaves on the table at a glance. They watched and studied them together. Mu Xingqiu did not stop them.
"Nianxin disciple,
I know what you are thinking. "Xiao Hao read it again, "You know it if you know it, why do you need to write it down? "
Shen Xiuming waved his hands hastily, "I didn't write it. I don't have the ability to make words grow from flowers and plants."
Xiaohao didn't think there was anything special about this at all, so she took Baldy out again. The two children had been avoiding Mu Xingqiu, but were very interested in the girl and the head, and soon they started playing together.
Shen Xiuming looked at Xiao Peng chasing happily outside. Asked in a low voice: "Do you really want to admit her to the cardiology department? She is a bit... weird."
"There are many weirdos in the Taoist tradition, let the masters and leaders decide. I haven't been out for a long time. Tell me about everyone's situation, except for you. I haven't seen anyone yet."
Shen Xiuming scratched his head, "I don't know much about Pangshan. They said they wanted to take back the ancestral land. But they never took action. I knew that everyone had reached the Shanxia realm. My mother, Xiao Qingtao, and Shen Hao were all resting their minds. Feng became the Taoist priest, and Xin Youtao no longer became a Taoist priest. He left last winter."
"Xin Youtao left Pangshan?" Mu Xingqiu didn't know about this yet.
"Yes, he went to work as a talisman master at Longbin Club in Huangjing. He came to see me before leaving. He was not in a good mood. He said that he wanted to stay in Pangshan, but for the sake of Her Royal Highness the Princess and the future of Xijie Kingdom , he had to go against his will.”
Xin Youtao has never been a determined person, and the princess had a great influence on him. Mu Xingqiu sighed softly.
"There is nothing we can do about it. Shen Xiuming also sighed, "Her Royal Highness the Princess has worked very hard. Without her, Xijie Kingdom would probably not even have a name. But as soon as she regained her footing, King Xisuke came running with the queen and the second prince. Everyone said that our King of Xijie did not understand the art of governing the country, and he only listened to one sided belief. He always suspected that the princess and Xin Youtao had different intentions. He also accepted bribes from Dongjie State and wanted to return a large piece of land on the east bank of the Jiehe River. go back. Alas, it was a mess anyway, and Xin Youtao had no choice. Being a Taoist priest could not dispel his father's suspicion, so he had to become a talisman master. Her Royal Highness the Princess is even more pitiful. Just because she is a woman, she cannot inherit the throne. No matter how great her achievements are, it is useless. In the end, she has to be forced to marry into the royal family to gain status for Xijie Kingdom. "
Mu Xingqiu didn't say anything. As far as he knew, the fate of the princess and Xin Youtao had already been determined. The two of them had taken advantage of the situation and were already prepared in their hearts. I'm afraid they didn't have much objection to the current situation.
Shen Xiuming stared at Mu Xingqiu for a while, then continued: "At the end of this month, Her Royal Highness will go to the imperial capital to marry a grandson of the Fu family. It is said that this grandson has a violent personality and is not a good person..."
Mu Xingqiu smiled. He would not use illusions to detect the thoughts of his good friends, but Shen Xiuming's approach was too obvious. "Is this the real reason why you called me here?"
Shen Xiuming blushed, "Of course not, it's mainly for you to read these words... I prepared a lot of fruits for you, you will definitely like them."
Shen Xiuming didn't know that Mu Xingqiu would come today, but he had already prepared a rich meal, mainly fresh fruits, with a light taste, suitable for the taste of Taoists, enough to entertain dozens of people.
Mu Xingqiu ate a lot, Xiaohao ate some picky, the bald man accepted the fact that Daliang had become fat and laughed at it, Zhang Xiang'er and Shen Xiuming's son Shen Cunyi ate more, their stomachs bulged high, especially Zhang Xiang'er, every time she ate a bite, she would stare at Mu Xingqiu, like a competition, but she didn't say anything.
Mu Xingqiu smiled at her, but didn't say anything.
"Well, when you are older, I will teach you magic myself."
"Can you let the princess stay in Duanliu City instead of going to the Imperial Capital?"
Mu Xingqiu thought for a while. Shaking his head, "The princess has her own ideas, and no one can change them."
Zhang Xiang'er sighed like an adult, dragged Shen Cunyi who was still chewing the melon away
Mu Xingqiu had a hunch that what Zhang Lingsheng entrusted to him would be a trouble, but he had no chance of regretting it.
Shen Xiuming told him a lot about ordinary people. Mu Xingqiu learned from him that the war between humans and demons had reached a stalemate. Qi Wushang had not been able to organize a strong offensive, but the enthusiasm of Xijie Kingdom to recover the lost territory was getting lower and lower. The reinforcements from various countries had already left, and only a Xijie army and a Huangfu army from the Shengfu Dynasty stayed in Duanliu City.
"Mortals have no ability to defeat the demon army, so they can only wait for the Taoist sect to take action first, but no one knows what Pangshan is thinking. I asked Xiao Qingtao, and she said that Pangshan had to recover his strength first, but it would take hundreds of years... Alas, it seems that I won't be able to wait until the day when Laozu Peak is recovered."
As the sky darkened, Mu Xingqiu said goodbye. Shen Xiuming knew that he couldn't keep him, so he took advantage of the fact that the others were not around and said, "There is something fishy about the words on the leaves, you have to be careful. Also, since you are back, take some time to see the princess. After all, we have fought together before."
Mu Xingqiu just hummed. He was not surprised at all that the princess had the ability to make a group of people loyal to her, and he still believed it. The princess would never be "forced" to marry. She had her own goals and means, but the people below had not yet understood it.
Mu Xingqiu summoned the magic sword, took Zhang Xiang'er and Shen Cunyi to the edge of Shen Garden, and then looked at the two children running back to Shen Xiuming happily, and then led Xiaohao and Baldy to Pangshan.
This time, the Taoist priests of the Five Elements Department guarding the mountain gate immediately allowed Mu Xingqiu to go up the mountain, and their eyes became different, with a little more respect and curiosity. They obviously learned from the senior Taoist priests that this Taoist priest who inhaled air was not simple.
Xinpangshan is a very ordinary mountain, neither high nor clear and beautiful. A winding path leads directly to the terrace on the top of the mountain. The flowers, plants and trees on the roadside are all ordinary species, not even as rare as the species planted in Shenyuan. The Taoists met on the road were all new faces, and none of them looked familiar.
The bald man became more and more disappointed, and he was not even in the mood to argue with Xiaohao. He was dejected all the way, just muttering in a low voice: "Why do everyone act like they have never heard of Brother Xiaoqiu? It has been several years, why doesn't Pangshan build it properly?"
Xiaohao understood his thoughts and comforted him: "Pangshan will take back the ancestral land sooner or later, so of course it won't spend too much time here, and it's normal to be a little simple."
The terrace has a little more Taoist atmosphere, especially when a unicorn runs towards it and shines on the ground, which further distinguishes this place from the mortal world.
The flea has grown taller and more majestic than his father. The muscles on his shoulders can be clearly seen even through a layer of scales, and the two hard horns like cast iron are daunting.
The bald man cheered, circled a few times, and landed between the two horns on the top of the Qilin's head. The flea shook its head gently, but still accepted it. It sniffed Mu Xingqiu's body, and a bit of gentleness appeared in its yellow eyes.
Xiaohao gave a heartfelt praise: "This is the real Taoist spirit beast. .kansh.c There is no such thing in Luanjing Mountain."
The bald man finally saved some face and proudly flipped from the flea's head to its back.
A Taoist priest came to lead the way, and Mu Xingqiu went to see Zuo Liuying first. The Forbidden Secret Department is still in a tower with only seven floors, which is much shorter than the old tower of Laozu Peak. There are no strange things inside. It is an ordinary brick and stone tower.
Bald man and Xiaohao stayed outside the tower, staying with the flea, and they were not lonely.
Zuo Liuying's appearance was no different from before, but after just one look at Mu Xingqiu, he was sure that the Forbidden Secret Section's chief's magic power was not as good as before. The injury from a few years ago had obviously not healed yet, like a tree with borers inside. The appearance had not changed temporarily, but the inside was already decaying.
But Zuo Liuying's temper had not changed. He sat on the futon and ignored Mu Xingqiu. After a while, he stretched out his right hand from his sleeve and showed a leaf in his hand, which turned out to be the one in Shen Garden.
"Do you still remember your true illusion? The various sects are about to launch a hunt for her. Whether Pang Shan can get ahead depends on you."
