Pretend to be a fairy to farm

Chu Tianzhu helped Ji Xuanling walk through the cave, the dim light cast their erratic shadows on the rock wall, and the narrow passage was extremely long.

The further you go, the wider the road becomes, and you can gradually feel the breeze blowing on your face, and there is a faint sound of running water ahead.

Chu Tianzhu cheered up: "There is wind and water, and there may be an exit ahead."

They struggled forward, and soon after, the space suddenly opened up, and an extremely tall cave hall appeared in front of the two of them.

There are many stalagmites in the cave hall. From time to time, water drops fall from the stalactites on the top of the cave and hit the stalagmites, making a crisp ticking sound.A bottomless underground river flows slowly through the hall.

Ji Xuanling looked around: "Such a huge stalactite may have grown for tens of thousands of years. There is such an unknown wonderland inside the fairy mountain."

Chu Tianzhu had never seen such a thing before, and he was fascinated to watch a string of water droplets fall from the stalactite and shatter on the tip of the stalagmite.

"It looks like it's really alive."

Ji Xuanling: "The stalactites are dripping and congealing, accumulated for tens of thousands of years, to form the essence of the stone, can the immortal master pick some back to refine the elixir?"

After hearing this, Chu Tianzhu turned around and looked at him seriously: "Life in the world is only a hundred years. However, stalactites grow for thousands of years, and I can only see this wonder today. If it is for self-interest, Pick it up, and when future generations come here, they will only see the traces of the destruction of the predecessors."

Ji Xuanling was stared at very close by him, and felt dazzled for a while: "Yes... I was confused for a while and became greedy. Such a beautiful scenery should be well protected so that future generations can see it for generations to come. It is."

They passed through the cavern, and continued onwards, and came to a smaller cavern.

There is an extremely conspicuous stone platform in the center of the small cave hall, emitting a dazzling golden light, which attracts people to step forward to find out.

There was no other way out around, Chu Tianzhu and Ji Xuanling looked at each other and walked towards the stone platform together.

There were only two things placed on the stone platform: a small and exquisite gold casket, with the wild and unruly "Chu" character engraved on the lid. The sword, the scabbard, and the hilt are all made of white jade, which is translucent and shiny, and you can tell it is not ordinary at a glance.

Chu Tianzhu opened the golden box, and there was an envelope lying in it, which was a product of an unknown era, and it was slightly yellowed.

He was about to open the envelope, but was stopped by Ji Xuanling.

"Wait a minute, Master Immortal. This item is very old. If it is not handled carefully, it may be damaged. You need to be careful."

Chu Tianzhu made a "please" gesture: "I have never touched this kind of thing, so you should handle it."

Ji Xuanling first rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, then took out a handkerchief to clean his hands carefully, then held his breath, and carefully took out the letter from the envelope.

It was just a thin piece of rice paper with not much content, Chu Tianzhu read all the content at a glance.

"To the descendants of the Chu family who inherit my precious wealth: Fate guides you to come here, pull out the fairy sword, and the world will be in your hands. ——Chu Yan."

Chu Tianzhu raised his eyebrows.In his will, Chu Yan once called the stone pendant that can travel through time and space "the most precious treasure".

There is no doubt that only the descendants of the Chu family who inherited that stone can travel through time and space to come here.

It seems that the vision in Kaiyuan Temple also comes from this mysterious stone.It will bring Chu Yan's heir to the cave where the fairy sword is hidden, and complete the last step of succession.

Looking at the letter, Ji Xuanling's expression changed drastically.Chu Tianzhu felt guilty.

He and Cotinus cotinus have always claimed to the outside world that the "Bamboo Immortal Master" is Huang Hai, the uncle of Cotinus cotinus who returned from studying art after ten years away from home.

But he can be sure that Ji Xuanling has doubted the identity of "Bamboo Immortal Master".

Chu Tianzhu's real identity is restricted by the rules, so it is very difficult to explain, and he usually tries to ignore this issue as much as possible.

Only now, he had to confess to Ji Xuanling.

"Ji Xuanling, I have something to tell you."

As soon as Chu Tianzhu opened his mouth, he saw Ji Xuanling's face was pale, trembling all over, and he tightened his clothes around his chest.

He had a wound on his foot, couldn't stand upright, and fell backwards.

Chu Tianzhu quickly caught Ji Xuanling, and helped him to sit slowly on the steps: "Is there any discomfort?"

Ji Xuanling's voice trembled: "It's okay... I just didn't expect that the rumors turned out to be true."

"What rumor?"

Ji Xuanling showed a weak smile: "I said earlier about my parents. In fact, I found some information at the time, but the matter was too bizarre and involved the reputation of my parents, so I didn't tell you."

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down: "I investigated the events of the year and found that when my mother was unmarried, she had a close relationship with the late emperor who was still the prince. Later, when the late emperor succeeded to the throne, each clan selected women of the right age to enter the palace, but the Bai family chose She is my mother's cousin, who is the current queen mother."

"They betrayed your mother?"

"What exactly happened is unclear now. Later, my mother quickly married my father and gave birth to me. Not long after that, they disappeared. There are rumors that..." Ji Xuanling's hands trembled slightly, "There are rumors that I am not the Ji family. flesh and blood."

Chu Tianzhu patted him on the shoulder: "The rumors cannot be completely believed.'"

"I never believed it, but now," he held up the letter in his hand, with a sad expression, "don't you understand, these are the inheritance left by Emperor Kaiyuan, the secret treasure of Kaiyuan that people all over the world are flocking to—if I wasn't Chu How could the descendants of the clan appear here inexplicably?"

"I, uh, actually, anyway... there must be some misunderstanding."

Chu Tianzhu tried to tell Ji Xuanling not to be sad, he is the real descendant of the Chu family, but every time he opened his mouth, he was forcibly cut off by the rules.

Ji Xuanling believed that he was the late emperor's illegitimate son, sobbing: "When I was young, whenever someone praised me as my father, my grandfather would smile. Whatever I did, he would say, how did your father do it? Grandpa became very happy when he did the same thing as his father. Later, I gradually began to deliberately imitate the behavior of "father" in his mouth, and hearing people say, "This son is like my father", is the highest compliment to me."

"I pretended to be handsome, opened a school, gained fame, and became the 'Mr. Xuanling' in the eyes of the world. Listening to them praise the false appearance, I even lost myself... In the end, 'Ji Xuanling' is just a person who is not The monster that exists, how ridiculous."

Chu Tianzhu held his hand: "The Ji Xuanling I know is greedy for pleasure, loves fancy clothes, and is full of curiosity about unknown things. Even villagers in the mountains and fields can treat each other as equals. This kind of Ji Xuanling is my friend. .If the high-ranking 'Mr. Xuan Ling' you mentioned came to my house, I would definitely not even give him a sip of water and drive him out of the house."

With tears in his eyes, Ji Xuanling said, "Xuanling is lucky to meet an immortal master."

"Nice to meet you too."

If he hadn't met Ji Xuanling, Chu Tianzhu might not have realized the problems of the rebel army.According to his original plan, after the sumac was settled, he returned to the lower city.

Like the residents of the lower city, he will fall into Xi Yu's trap, and everything will be completely different.

After venting his emotions, Ji Xuanling gradually regained his composure: "The past cannot be changed. Since fate led me to come here, I will accept it all."

He stood up, with the support of Chu Tianzhu, went back to the stone platform, picked up the white jade sword, and tried to pull it out.

Chu Tianzhu: "The matter has not yet been settled, I think you should not make a decision yet."

Ji Xuanling smiled slightly: "Don't worry."

He clenched the scabbard tightly with his left hand, and drew the sword with his right—the fairy sword remained motionless.

Ji Xuanling stepped up his strength and pulled it out again, still the same.He looked at his right hand suspiciously: "What's going on?"

Chu Tianzhu was helpless, he took the sword from Ji Xuanling's hand.

When the fairy sword came into Chu Tianzhu's hand, it was instantly radiant, and there was a golden light flowing in the white jade.He clenched the hilt tightly, as if a warm current flowed from his palm into his body.

Accompanied by Qingyue's sword cry, the fairy sword was unsheathed, and the entire Xianshan mountain range trembled.

Chu Tianzhu felt as if his soul had left his body and kept floating upwards.

Pass through the thick rocks, cross the undulating forest sea, rise above the distant sky, and look down at the world.

This was the first time he saw the whole picture of the Xianshan Mountains.The main peak stands majestically, and more than ten side peaks around it fall to the middle, like a kneeling posture.

On the top of the mountains, the steaming mist and the flowing clouds are indistinguishable from each other, forming a dense atmosphere.

What is particularly conspicuous on the top of the mountain is the Kaiyuan Temple with a unique shape - Cotinus cotinus is still there.

With a thought in Chu Tianzhu's mind, his field of vision automatically zoomed in, and he saw Cotinus cotinus being escorted down the white jade steps by several golden-armored guards.

Beside the carriage not far below the steps, an attendant was pacing back and forth anxiously, and his partner was trying to find out what happened at the Kaiyuan Temple.

They had to go back, maybe a guard noticed that Cotinus Cotinus had not come here alone.When the guards went to the carriage to check and found that Chu Tianzhu and Ji Xuanling were not there, they would definitely become suspicious.

Chu Tianzhu dived quickly, his consciousness passed through the mountain, and he saw the cave.

His physical body was still standing in place, maintaining the posture of drawing out the fairy sword, motionless.He let his consciousness dive into his body.

Chu Tianzhu suddenly opened his eyes, and in front of him was Ji Xuanling's dumbfounded expression.

He put his sword back into its sheath, and stretched out his hand to Ji Xuanling: "Let me introduce myself again, I am Chu Tianzhu. Let me explain the details to you later. Cotinus cotinus is in trouble, and now we have to go."

Ji Xuanling was so shocked that he didn't know how to react, so he could only follow his instructions and hold his hand.

Chu Tianzhu recalled in his mind the woods near where the carriage was parked, white light flickered, and the figures of the two left the cave in an instant and appeared in the empty woods.

Chu Tianzhu supported Ji Xuanling towards the carriage, when a sharp-eyed attendant saw them and immediately came forward to meet them.

"Mr. accidentally sprained his foot when he went up the mountain, so we came down first. Is there any medicine in the car?"

A follower took out the medicine box and simply treated Ji Xuanling's sprained ankle.

Not long after they came back, several golden armored guards came towards the carriage with sumac.

Sweat was dripping from Cotinus cotinus's flushed face, and it was not known whether it was due to fatigue from climbing the steps or nervousness.

He approached apprehensively, seeing Chu Tianzhu and Ji Xuanling standing beside the carriage, his eyes lit up immediately: "Master! Mr. Xuanling!"
