Yan Dynasty forbids cultivating immortals

Yandu Liyi

In the early morning, the blue-gray sky lingered on, trying to retain the last trace of darkness. The huge imperial city was quiet, and the sound of snow falling as the wind blew across the roof could be heard.

It snowed heavily for three consecutive days, and finally stopped last night. The snow covered the glazed tiles, and the vermilion palace lined with them became more and more vivid. The eyes were bright and dazzling, like warm blood sprayed on the snow.

The Yongqing Hall is on the west side of the Imperial Garden. The palace gates have been closed for many years, and occasionally opened. Looking past, one feels that the gloomy gate seems to swallow people in.

There seemed to be a person standing in front of the porch for a long time, and after the new snow fell, he stood there, motionless.

The black mist was still lingering in the last darkness of the morning, and a man approached with a fire bucket. He was dressed in black clothes similar to the night, and barely made a sound, only a slight crackling sound from the red coals burning in the iron bucket.

Someone came to push the burnt white ash in the brazier aside, and the long tongs took out the charcoal and put it into the brazier on the side. The brazier burned more vigorously, and the cold air in the air was forced back a little.

"Your Highness, do you want to look at it for a while? If you want to look at it, it's windy in the morning, so I'll bring you another fox fur."

The man's voice was gentle and calm, and he was half kneeling there tending the brazier, and the red charcoal fire smoked his pale face with popularity.

The person standing there did not answer.

The lingering black mist was torn apart by the light, and the fish belly in the sky was white with gold edges. The figure of the person who had been standing still finally moved and went back to the dormitory.The maids and eunuchs around immediately started to move, those who should carry water, those who should hold clothes, hurried footsteps lingered in the hall.

"Luo Sheng", the man called without turning his head.

The pale-faced man followed him all the time, and replied softly, "Your Highness, I am humbled."

Li Jingcun went straight back to the bedroom, Luo Sheng followed, and softly closed the door after entering the room.

The charcoal basin in the room was very hot, Li Jingcun untied the belt of his cotton robe and lay back on the bed. He had only put on a cotton robe over his middle coat after standing for a long time.

"What happened to the woman brought back from Jinan Mansion?"

"It was placed in the Xihua Palace in the name of a beautiful girl presented by the local government. Next year, the emperor will preside over the sacrificial ceremony and stay in the Xihua Palace. It should be almost the same."

Li Jingcun's voice was lazy, with a little lack of strength, not at all like the voice of a man in his prime.

"Don't make any mistakes. Besides, call me after your father comes down to court. I haven't gone out for a few days."

Luo Sheng lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head, "The humble officer will go and order to arrange it."

The person under the quilt did not move, as if he had fallen asleep, Luo Sheng consciously turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait, the little thing hasn't been fed for some days."

Luo Sheng paused.

"Your Highness misses him?"

Luo Sheng unplugged the porcelain bottle on his waist, and a jet-black spider crawled out from the mouth of the bottle. It was not big in size, and its eight legs seemed too long. It was nothing special in general. The eyes on the top of its head were hideous. Red, the color of blood.Luo Sheng caught it with his fingers.That thing knew its owner, held Luo Sheng's finger and smelled it for a long time, and was sure it was a familiar smell, so he obediently picked it on his fingertips.

Luo Sheng approached the couch, Li Jingcun had already rolled up his sleeves and exposed his arms, Luo Sheng put the spider on it.

The black spider voluntarily climbed up, thinking it must have been hungry not long ago, it searched back and forth on the arm for a long time, until it found a smooth piece of meat, and then bit it down.

The toxin dripped in, and the burning pain from the wound caused Li Jingcun to convulse suddenly.

This beast does not understand human nature, no matter how noble a person is in front of him, he is just a vessel of blood, and there is only the difference between the blood of a living person and the blood of a dead person.

Luo Sheng no longer needed to suppress Li Jingcun, he had gradually gotten used to this kind of pain, but he still couldn't avoid the pain, and after that period, he would have hallucinations, be in a trance, and feel a kind of psychedelic happiness.Luo Sheng quietly looked at Li Jingcun with that crazy expression on his face again, as if he was ecstatic at the nothingness after devouring the world.

The stomach of the black spider bulged strangely, and Li Jingcun's entire arm had already turned a strange purple color, and the veins on his arm gradually turned from blue to dark red.

Luo Sheng pinched the spider's head and tore it off from the flesh. The spider hadn't had enough to drink, and was reluctant to part with it. After being disturbed, it released a large amount of toxin in an instant, and the psychedelic effect reached the extreme. At this time, Li Jingcun was forcibly pulled out of the illusion, He immediately resisted violently.The first time Li Jingcun was pulled out of the hallucination, he almost killed Luo Sheng, and because he missed the best time, the spider king injected too much poison and almost caused an irreparable disaster.

Li Jingcun jumped up and grabbed Luo Sheng's neck, only then did he see his strength, Luo Sheng couldn't resist at all, and still pinched the Spider King's head tightly.The two stalemate, the spider king was finally torn off from the flesh, pinched his head and stuffed him back into the bottle. After drinking the blood, his round belly was almost plugging the bottle mouth. Li Jingcun was still stuck in Luo Sheng's gate of life. While suffocating, Sheng took out a black plaster from another bottle on his body, and struggled to stick it on Li Jingcun's wound.

Not long after, the hallucinatory effect caused by the toxin dissipated, Li Jingcun's eyes slowly recovered, and the hand that was holding Luo Sheng dropped naturally.Luo Sheng was offended during this process, so he retreated to the bed and knelt down. Li Jingcun paused for a while, staring at the window curtain, then turned his back to Luo Sheng, and pulled the quilt up by himself.

Kneeling for a while, Luo Sheng heard that Li Jingcun resumed his lazy attitude, "Go down."

Luo Sheng got up, picked up the padded robes and shoes that were scattered on the ground, lowered the curtains, lowered the bed curtains, and quietly retreated out.
