The Mortal Immortal

Chapter 784 Ao You (12)

After switching to harvesting by force, Shu Han's collection of sky fire slowed down, but it was still more time-consuming and labor-intensive than fighting the sky fire giant whale all day long.

After accumulating enough sky fire on the seabed, Shu Han flew to the Thunder Prison Islands and concentrated on cultivating the fire root. He repeated this process, and two years passed in a flash.

Within two years, the Skyfire Giant Whale hated Shu Han's practice of locusts crossing the border; Shu Han criticized the Skyfire Giant Whale's behavior of being timid and afraid to come out to fight because it was too time-consuming.

However, on this day, Shu Han refined the accumulated Sky Fire, walked out of the secret room, and was about to continue diving into the deep sea to collect the source of Sky Fire, when he suddenly saw that the dark clouds on the Thunder Prison Islands had cleared up.

The sea water is still boiling under the influence of geology, but there is no thunder gushing out from the bottom of the sea. Although the Thunder Prison Islands are still windy and the waves are high, the entire Thunder Prison Islands seem to be suddenly silent compared to before.

This sight made Shu Han feel that something was not right. After two years of robbing the Skyfire Giant Whale in the Thunder Prison Islands, Shu Han knew that the non-stop thunder in the Thunder Prison Islands was caused by the blue flames and sky fire on the seabed absorbing the geological movement of the seabed.

Now that the thunder covering the Thunder Prison Islands has disappeared, it means that the fire spirit below no longer absorbs the heat of the seabed!

"What on earth is this Sky Fire Spirit doing?"

Shu Han frowned, and he immediately jumped into the sea and came to the seabed of the Thunder Prison Islands.

What appeared in front of him was no longer a hotbed of sky fire where blue flames grew, but an exposed seabed filled with magma.

The entire seabed changed from the original faint blue to a burning red, and the sky fire growing on the seabed disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Shu Han's heart skipped a beat.

"Could it be that the fire spirit felt that I pinched it too hard and couldn't stand it, so it packed up the stuff and ran away overnight!"

Thinking of this, Shu Han couldn't help but feel troubled.

I finally found a long-term and stable supply of sky fire, how could I just let it run away at a moment's notice!

Shu Han hurriedly searched on the vast seabed of the Thunder Prison Islands. As a result, Shu Han discovered that the sky fire had indeed disappeared without a trace, and he did not know where he had escaped.

Seeing this scene, Shu Han was quite puzzled: Although I took out a lot of the source of the sky fire, this seabed with intense geological activity will replenish it every moment! Skyfire wouldn't just run away with his tail between his legs this time!

Feeling very puzzled, Shu Han had no choice but to return to the Thunder Prison Islands.

He felt that it was impossible for the giant fire whale to really give up on this beautiful seabed that day. Maybe it was pretending to leave so that he could deceive himself and then come back.

"I'll just sit here and wait! I don't believe you are willing to give up this precious land!"

Shu Han sat cross-legged on a high peak, quietly waiting for the return of the sky fire.

However, after sitting for a long time, Shu Han smelled the aroma of wine floating in the air.

The aroma of this wine was extremely special and could not help but make Shu Han's nose twitch. Shu Han has been practicing Taoism for so many years and has drunk a lot of good wine in the world of cultivation, but the aroma of wine spreading in the wind particularly caught his attention. It's not that the aroma of the wine is so alluring and rich, it's just that the aroma of the wine is quite crude.

This crude aroma of wine brought back Shu Han's long-standing memories.

I still remember that Shu Han was still in the small mountain village of Yanbei. Every month before the new year, Shu Han's parents began to prepare new year's goods. The most important of these is home-brewed rice wine, used to entertain guests. Because food is precious in the mountains, most villagers are reluctant to use rice to make wine, and they are only willing to use it during the New Year.

Rice wine is brewed by fermenting the rice of that year. The methods of ordinary people in the mountains are rough and the ingredients are not very particular. The brewed rice wine has a rough and mixed aroma.

However, it was such a crude aroma of wine that kept Shu Han fresh in his memory, because Shu Han knew that smelling such crude aroma of wine at home meant that the Chinese New Year was coming.

At this time, Shu Han smelled the faint aroma of wine floating in the air and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Is there anyone else in this Thunder Prison Islands?"

Shu Han moved forward in search of the scent of wine, and came to a small island not far away. From a distance, he saw a small wooden house standing on the bare island. There are four large vats displayed in front of the wooden house. The vats are covered with thick quilts, and the aroma of wine emanates from the vats.

In front of the wooden house are several acres of rice fields that have been harvested. There are two sweet-scented osmanthus trees beside the rice fields. The straw is piled under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and the sweet-scented osmanthus slowly falls on the straw pile. It looks like an ordinary mountain village family.

However, Shu Han was a little surprised, because when he came to the Thunder Prison Islands, he had already scanned all the islands. There was such an unexpected farmhouse on the island, and it was impossible for him not to notice it. Suddenly, a figure walked out of the wooden house. He had a young and ordinary appearance, a thin and tall figure, and was dressed in rough cloth. He looked like a farmer in the field.

But Shu Han doesn't believe that there are ordinary mortal farmers in this Thunder Prison Islands!

Clear spirit and improve eyesight!

With clear eyesight, Shu Han saw the faint demonic aura exuding from this man, and he turned out to be a demonic beast in disguise.

"Why is the demonic energy of the transformed monster so low! What is this monster doing on the Thunder Prison Islands?!"

Shu Han couldn't help but frown, the scene in front of him was really strange and unexpected.

The man walked to the big vat, lifted the quilt, scooped out a bowl of rice wine in a porcelain bowl, and looked at it carefully.

Because the demonic energy was too low, Shu Han couldn't tell what level of demonic beast this person was. He was about to use all his power to see his true identity when he saw the man turn around and smile at Shu Han. The sky where it is raises the porcelain bowl.

"A fellow Taoist actually came to my humble home, why don't you come down and ask for a bowl of wine."

Hearing this person say this, Shu Han became more vigilant. He came with a concealed aura, but he was discovered in an instant, which shows that this demon is quite powerful. Shu Han Qingling scanned the entire island with clear eyes and found that there was no formation on the island, and the other party did not show any malice. After thinking for a moment, he slowly descended and came to the wooden house.

Shu Han cupped his hands and said, "I, Feng Zelu, have met fellow Taoist."

The man smiled and said: "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Feng, I'm here in Aoyou. Fellow Taoist came at the right time. The wine I brewed has just been fermented in the past two days. The wine is poor. I don't know if it suits fellow Taoist taste."

Shu Han came to the wine vat, lifted the quilt, and saw the clear rice wine in the rice nest in the vat. He scooped up a bowl and took a sip, which immediately reminded him of secretly drinking from an adult's cup when he was a child. Shu Han couldn't help but admire the scene of rice wine: "Clear but not turbid, fragrant but not sour, rich in rice aroma, sweet and refreshing, the rice wine brewed by fellow Taoist is the best rice wine I have ever tasted in my life!"

Hearing Shu Han's praise, Ao You's thin face showed an unstoppable smile. He scratched his head and said with a smile: "With your Taoist cultivation, have you ever drank such poor rice wine? I thought you were like Taoist Taoist." For such a great human cultivator, the contents in his cup are filled with rare nectar and jade liquid.”

Shu Han chuckled and said: "Actually, that's right. No matter how good the rice wine is, it is still limited by the materials and techniques and cannot compare with the fine wines in the cultivation world. But each has its own flavor, like the mortal village where I was born when I was a child. , Seeing that adults regard this wine as a treasure, it will naturally remain fresh in their memory. "

Hearing this, Ao You widened his eyes and said in surprise: "Fellow Taoist is still a mortal!"

Shu Han smiled and said: "What about mortals, so what about immortals? Going back a few generations, whose ancestors are not mortals? Some of the happiness of mortals is far better than that of cultivators like us!"

Ao You listened to Shu Han's words and was a little confused for a moment. He tasted the taste: "The happiness of mortals is far better than that of cultivators! Okay! What the Taoist said is very good! It's directed at the Taoist's words. , I will treat you well today! Fellow Taoist, please come in!"

Shu Han looked at his enthusiastic look and felt very surprised. He thought to himself, how can you, a transformed monster, still feel so much emotion?

Embarrassed to refuse Ao You's kindness, Shu Han walked into the cabin.

The cabin is extremely simple, really like a farmhouse. Shu Han was sitting on the wooden chair, and Ao You was busy in the wooden house. Even though he had tremendous demonic power, he did everything by himself. Pouring wine for Shu Han, preparing rice cakes, serving sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and even two bunches of candied haws, he was very busy.

Shu Han looked at the dazzling array of pastries on the table and froze in front of the table.

Ao You looked at Shu Han with eager eyes, and then at the pastries and drinks on the table, as if to indicate: Hurry and try it! He acted like a regular guy who was expecting his guests to taste his craft.

Shu Han didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He couldn't resist Ao You's enthusiasm and began to taste each one.

But there is one thing to say, Ao You's craftsmanship is absolutely top-notch. Not only is the wine fragrant and mellow, but the various pastries are also delicious. Shu Han cheers after eating them.

Hearing Shu Han's praise, Ao You drank rice wine with a smile on his face. He watched with satisfaction as Shu Han emptied his pastries and kept pouring wine for Shu Han politely.

Shu Han said sheepishly: "Fellow Taoist, you should also eat it. How embarrassing it would be for me to eat it alone!"

Ao You scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Actually, I don't like to eat, and I can't taste it. After all, I am a demon. Even if I transform into a human, I am not a real person after all. If you give these to me, it will be really hard to eat." It’s a waste. But seeing how delicious my food is, you know that my skills are not bad! Hahaha, brother, I still have more!”

Hearing this, Shu Han's cheeks couldn't help but twitch. He put down the pastries, raised his hands and asked, "I haven't asked my fellow Taoist yet what kind of monster transformed into a human being! I don't know if it's convenient for us to tell you." Ao You said lightly: " It’s convenient, what’s the inconvenience? My body is the Chaos Sea Demon Swallowing Whale.”

Shu Han:......

A mouthful of pastry immediately stuck in Shu Han's throat. He quickly drank a sip of rice wine, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The chaotic sea demon swallows the whale?

Is it the one I used to kill a group of people with one palm?

Ao You saw Shu Han's face change slightly, and couldn't help but asked with concern: "What's wrong with fellow Taoist? Is there anything I'm doing that doesn't suit fellow Taoist's taste? Please correct me, fellow Taoist, so that I can improve my craftsmanship!"

Shu Han said sarcastically: "No, no, no! My Taoist craftsmanship is at its peak, and there is nothing to criticize... But I didn't expect that my Taoist friend was actually born from the Chaotic Sea Demon Swallowing Whale. I heard that that kind of monster has an extremely violent and ferocious temperament... "

Hearing this, Ao You looked embarrassed, and he said embarrassedly: "I made fellow Taoist laugh, but that's true." Shu Han looked at the harmless look on his face, and there was really no way to deal with the extremely cruel Chaotic Sea Demon. The swallowing whale was connected, but for safety reasons, Shu Han asked tentatively: "I think the evil spirit of fellow Taoist is not strong, but it is restrained in the body. It is very impressive to be able to do this. I believe that fellow Taoist must have good cultivation." Let’s take advantage of nature.”

Ao You smiled and said: "Thanks to the promotion from fellow Taoist, I just got lucky enough to reach the tenth level."

puff!

Shu Han spurted out a mouthful of rice wine, which startled Ao You. He hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, fellow Taoist? Is there something wrong with this batch of wine?"

Shu Han felt that Ao You was an unfathomable monster, but he never expected that he was actually a tenth-level monster!

The tenth level chaotic sea demon swallows the whale!

OMG! That must be the King of the Whale-Swallowing Demon of the Chaos Sea. If he knew that I slapped many of his clan members to death, wouldn't he fall out with me?

Although the tenth-level monster is not of the true spirit bloodline, it is definitely not easy to deal with!

Shu Han said anxiously: "No, I am just a little surprised at your cultivation. But I dare to ask you, you must be a great figure with such cultivation. Why did you come to the Thunder Prison Islands to live a mortal farmer's life?"

Ao You said: "I am not a great figure. As for why I came to the Thunder Prison Islands, it is actually very simple, because the Thunder Prison Islands is where I grew up. In the words of the human race, it is my hometown. I just visit my hometown in my spare time."

Shu Han said in astonishment: "Did you grow up in the Thunder Prison Islands? But the habitat of the Chaos Sea Demon Devouring Whale is not far from here." Ao You said a little embarrassedly: "To be honest with you, I was born weak, with a weird and thin body, and was not liked by my own people. You also know that the Chaos Sea Demon Devouring Whale is cruel by nature, and my own people can't stand me like this, so I was forced to live in the sea area of ​​the Thunder Prison Islands."

They are really blind!

A dignified tenth-level transformed monster was actually looked down upon by his own kind when he was young.

Shu Han asked, "It seems that there are no other monsters living in the Thunder Prison Islands. Have you lived here alone since you were a child?" Ao You nodded calmly, "You are right, the environment in the Thunder Prison Islands is bad, and no other monsters are willing to come here. Haha, I am timid and cowardly by nature, afraid of my own kind outside, so I have been wandering alone in this sea area. It was not until I transformed that I had the courage to leave this Thunder Prison Islands."

Hearing this, Shu Han was shocked.

"I heard that it takes a lot of years for monsters to transform! Have you lived alone in the Thunder Prison Islands for so long?"

Ao You nodded.

Living alone in a lonely sea for tens of millions of years, it was hard for Shu Han to imagine what that kind of life was like.

He took a sip of rice wine and said, "With no one to accompany me, the days back then must have been very difficult and lonely."

Ao You smiled, shook his head and said, "It wasn't difficult, because I was born weird and ugly, and I always remembered being laughed at and ridiculed by my own people. It's not bad to live alone, at least the waves and hurricanes of the Leiyu Islands won't abuse me, and although the thunder in the sea sometimes makes me feel unbearable, they don't specifically target me. I am accompanied by the wonders of the sea, watching the rise and fall of the stars, and experiencing the mystery of the sea, so I don't think the days are difficult."

Ao You sighed, "I didn't have any company at the time, so how could I feel lonely?"

Shu Han listened to Ao You's words and realized that Ao You's sincerity, frankness, and pleasantness were not disguised, but his personality. The reason why monsters are violent and cruel, and the reason why people are deceitful, is because they influence each other.

Living among monsters, if you are not fierce and cruel, you will become blood food for other monsters.

If you don't learn to be more careful when you are among the crowd, you will be cheated by others and lose everything sooner or later.

The bad nature of humans and monsters is forced out by themselves.

On the contrary, although Ao You is a violent sea monster, he was raised in the Thunder Prison Islands since he was a child, accompanied by waves and islands, and cultivated a frank and peaceful temperament.

Shu Han toasted Ao You with a glass of wine and asked: "It is really admirable that Daoyou can have such an understanding, but since Daoyou doesn't like mortal cakes, why do you practice such a good craft?" Ao You couldn't hide his smile, he said: "I don't like to eat, but my wife especially likes these small cakes. I'm sorry to make fun of you, she is a greedy person, and she taught me to make these things."

Hearing this, Shu Han was speechless.

"Is your wife a human cultivator?"

Ao You nodded and smiled: "Yes! It's human!"

Shu Han choked: "But you are a demon!"

Ao You smiled: "I understand what you mean, but what is the difference between humans and demons? Many people are more ferocious and brutal than demons, and many demons are more treacherous and cunning than humans. In my eyes, there is not much difference between humans and demons, and I can't find a partner as dazzling as my wife even if I search the entire demon and human races! It is my greatest honor to meet my wife!"

Seeing Ao You's eyes light up when he mentioned his wife, Shu Han couldn't help but laugh, and at the same time he admired Ao You and his wife.

Shu Han asked, "Where is your wife now? I would like to meet this amazing woman!"

Ao You laughed, "You are a mortal who has come here to practice cultivation. I believe my wife would be happy to meet you. But now is not the right time. She is in the Nascent Soul stage. It will probably take two or three hundred years for her to break through the stage." Ao You held a piece of osmanthus cake and smiled, "Two or three hundred years. Alas, the days without her really make me feel like a year. So I plan to take advantage of this time to constantly hone the skills she taught me and learn all the famous cakes in the world. After she comes out of the stage, I will make a new cake for her every day so that she can have a different cake every day."

When Ao You talked about his wife, his eyes kept shining, as if he was talking about the most precious treasure in the world.

Looking at his infatuated look, Shu Han smiled slightly, and couldn't help feeling melancholy.

Nascent Soul stage! Two or three hundred years!

This reminded him of Shangguan Ruolin, who was also trying to reach the Nascent Soul stage, but if he hadn't found the Bodhi Seed of Life and Death, it would take more than two or three hundred years to overcome this stage.

Seeing Shu Han's melancholy look, Ao You asked, "Fellow Daoist, are you worried about something?"

Shu Han smiled and said: "Actually, my wife is also trying to reach the Nascent Soul barrier, but she is not as lucky as your lady. She can get out of the barrier in two to three hundred years. If I don't work hard, she won't know what to do. It’s time to meet me again, oh, I really envy fellow Taoist!”

When Ao You heard this, he had a look of regret on his face. He poured Shu Han a full bottle of wine and said, "Fellow Taoist, you must work harder. If husbands can't protect their wives, then what qualifications do they have to be called their husbands?" Even if there is a sea of ​​fire ahead, we have to bulldoze it for them and let them get through it safely, right?"

Shu Han nodded, gulped down the rice wine in the bowl, and agreed: "What the Taoist friend said is absolutely true! It's rare to meet such a frank person as the Taoist friend, and I will definitely get drunk with the Taoist friend today. Don't feel bad about the outside world, the Taoist friend." Those four jars of rice wine!”

Ao You smiled and said, "A thousand cups of wine is too little when you meet a close friend. Please treat me, fellow Taoist!"

As a result, the two continued to exchange cups and cups, and the conversation gradually shifted to bragging about their wives.

Shu Han: "My wife is beautiful and fragrant, and her appearance is unparalleled in the human world! There is no other extraordinary woman like her in the world!"

Ao You: "That's because you've never met my wife! Fellow Taoist Feng, no matter how much you brag, you can never be as beautiful as my wife!"

Shu Han: "Fart! How can you, a monster, understand human aesthetics!"

Ao You laughed loudly: "Hurry! Hurry! Let me tell you, my wife is not only outstanding in appearance, but also gentle and kind in character!"

Shu Han was anxious.

He thought of the time when Shangguan Ruolin was injured and became smaller. Shangguan Ruolin's fierce little face lingered in his mind, as if it was about to jump out and bite anyone at any time.

"This... I guess it's really incomparable! My... sometimes has a really explosive temper..."

The two drank for half a day, and all four tanks of rice wine were emptied.

Shu Han felt a little embarrassed as he watched Ao You drink and eat all his inventory, so he took out a ten thousand year black ice bed and handed it to Ao You. Shu Han said: "Today I received warm hospitality from fellow Taoists. A small gift is not a sign of respect. Fellow Taoists, please don't refuse in a hurry. This is for Madam. The Ten Thousand Years Xuan Ice Bed will wait for Madam to break out of the barrier and treat Madam's jade body It’s of great benefit.”

Ao You smiled bitterly and put away the Wannian Xuanbing bed.

"Then I would like to express my gratitude to my dear friend, Madam."

Shu Han smiled and said, "It's easy to talk about." Then Shu Han walked out of the wooden house and looked at the Leiyu Islands where the sky was still clear and clear. He suddenly frowned and murmured: "When will this stupid sky fire come back?!"

Hearing Shu Han's muttering, Ao You asked in surprise: "Fellow Taoist, did you come to the Thunder Prison Islands for the Sky Fire?"

"Exactly, I don't know why the Sky Fire disappeared suddenly, and I am quite distressed. Since you have lived in this sea area since you were a child, do you know where the Sky Fire goes?"

Ao You said embarrassedly: "I have caused trouble to my fellow Taoists. The reason why the sky fire disappeared is because I came back. This thunder sea blue firework gave me face, so it temporarily sneaked into the depths of the earth. When I leave the Thunder Prison Islands, it will naturally Just return to the seabed and continue to accumulate sky fire."

Hearing this, Shu Han was completely speechless.

It turns out it was you who scared Tianhuo away!

However, this news shocked Shu Han.

Tianhuo, who was fearless that day, was actually scared away by Ao You!

At this time, Shu Han couldn't help but change the way he looked at Ao You.

Ao You looked guilty and asked: "Do you need the sky fire urgently? If you don't want much, I can help you negotiate with the thunder sea blue fireworks."

Shu Han was shocked. Taking away a little bit of the source of the sky fire was like taking the life of the thunder sea blue fireworks. Can this be negotiated?

Shu Han murmured: "I don't need much...but it's best to get all the Thunder Sea Blue Fireworks."

Ao You hurriedly waved his hands: "This can't be done! This is non-negotiable! Seeing that fellow Taoist has a predestined relationship with me and has gifted my wife the precious ten thousand year black ice bed, I will at most fight for half of it for fellow Taoist and see if it will sell me this face."

half? !

Shu Han's eyes nearly popped out.

Are you so proud?
