In the middle of the night, Green Bull Mountain stood at the foot of the village entrance dam of Green Bull village.
This Green Bull village was neither big nor small. There were more than a hundred people scattered at the foot of Green Bull Mountain. Legend had it that this was where the descendants of Grand Lord Li Er lived. Therefore, the village names had crowned the mountain range and the village with the two words “Green Bull”. They were all proud of this.
There was a verdant field lying on the mountainside. It looked very unclear under the night sky. A dark figure was busy and laboriously dragging a rattan chair to the bottom of the awning.
The awning made of straw was extremely cool at first glance. It was ventilated all around. It could not block the scorching sun above or the wind and rain below. Only in the dark night could the clear moonlight sprinkle on the girl’s face.
This was a very delicate face. Only her round eyes seemed to be full of spirit. The figure busied herself in front and behind the rattan chair and finally turned back to extinguish the slightly yellow bean light in the straw hut. She happily lay back down and covered her face with the straw hat as usual, she thought about the more profound question.
“Then why don’t You Call Me ‘father’? Like Laozi Village? Laozi Mountain?”
This was indeed a profound question, so the girl stared blankly at the crescent moon hanging above the melon field and fell asleep in a daze.
The melon-growing child of the Green Bull Sect, Morning Dew, was just a little girl in the main branch, but she had already spent several years on the mountainside of the Green Bull Mountain.
The Melon Field at night was indeed more dangerous and complicated than during the day. For example, thieves who stole melons at night would often appear, or the badger would sneak into the field at night. Morning Dew would make some noise to scare these people, if she insisted on stealing, Morning Dew would let it be.
She often said that this was to do good deeds.
However, the Watermelon Field Tonight was a little strange. Not far away, the thief made a strange sound first, and it was continuous.
Morning Dew was curious. She lifted the straw hat on her face and looked at the source of the sound with a blank face.
She opened her eyes and closed them out of habit. The familiar round watermelon was still lying in the same place like a sleeping child. There was no movement. However, between the lush watermelon vines and leaves, it was as if there were gophers shuttling back and forth, the watermelon leaves, which were the size of lotus leaves, moved a few times from time to time.
“Oh...”
Just as she was about to push away the slightly annoying watermelon leaves in front of her, Chao Lu, who had sharp ears, heard the man’s low panting. She stood up thoughtfully and put her hands on her waist to think. The low panting disappeared and was replaced by the obvious sound of rapid undressing.
It seemed that she had to relieve herself in the melon field in the middle of the night, so it was not good to disturb her like this. Therefore, Chao Lu quietly got up and prepared to go back to her little awning.
Unexpectedly, she heard the woman’s even lower panting... which made Chao Lu stop.
She curiously widened her already round eyes again -- it seemed that this was the first time for her, who had been guarding the melon field for years.
Therefore, she gently pushed aside the melon leaves in front of her and squinted her eyes to look inside.
What a wonderful scene. The two people in front of her were completely naked. They were lying in an extremely difficult position in a melon field. Several large and small melons were plucked and thrown to the side, clearing a path.
The man was lying on top of the woman, and the two of them were very close together. Although their figures were not very graceful under the moonlight, their undulations were very rhythmic. If it was accompanied by the song “100,000 ambushes,”one could feel the tension and excitement in this scene.
The man’s movements were wild, and he could not help but gasp a few times. The woman, on the other hand, was already very excited. Her hands were scratching back and forth on the melon field, and she was crying intermittently.
Zhao Lu squatted at the side. If she wanted to relieve herself, she thought that if she disturbed this good show, she would tell others that she was relieving herself.
Well... this reason was good, so she swaggered and squatted in the same place, watching this show to the end.
Ever since Zhao Lu entered Green Bull Mountain, she had never seen such an intense method of cultivation. The man was panting, and the woman was wailing. However, she could not see her face clearly. Gradually, the sound of water splashing could be heard.
Zhao Lu could not help but feel thirsty. Her face was red, and her little face was dripping with sweat.
“How is it? Sister Lian, how do you feel?”
“Ah... Brother Niu, brother Niu...”the woman called Sister Lian finally could not help but cry out, “I feel like dying...”
Ah, it was indeed the way of cultivation. It was too mysterious! It was too mysterious!
Zhao Lu carefully and vigorously slapped her thigh. She felt very satisfied in her heart. This play was more enjoyable than the drama troupe in the village who played gongs and drums. Although it seemed like something was wrong with her heart.., overall, it was indeed a lesson in the great dao of cultivation.
As expected, her master had said, “Cultivation is in the human world, so Zhao Lu, go experience life.”After sending her to this melon field, it was very correct!
As a result, Zhao Lu’s eyes and nose turned red, and she suddenly felt a little anxious. Just as she was about to turn around and find a place to settle it, she saw a pair of faintly glowing, round eyes lying on the side. Looking closely, it was actually a little boy.
Seeing that Zhao Lu’s mouth was slightly open as if she was about to speak, the boy looked nervous and reached out to pull Zhao Lu out. Zhao Lu only felt her vision blur and she was in a completely unfamiliar cave.
“You, you are...”Zhao Lu was tongue-tied and pointed at the boy with a face full of surprise. Those who could use spiritual spells were either immortals or monsters.
The boy was wearing a light blue shirt, revealing two thin arms. His big black grape-like eyes looked at Zhao Lu angrily.
The young man put his hands on his hips and pointed at Zhao Lu, lecturing her, “How can you talk in this situation? If you disturb her, do you know the consequences?”
Zhao Lu thought for a moment. “Qi Deviation?”
He choked, frowned, and nodded solemnly. “Yes, Qi deviation.”
Zhao lu patted her chest and heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good, that’s good.”
“You’re Not Afraid of Me?”
“Why should I be? Are You a monster?”
“No, I’m Hua... Uh.”The young man stopped and stared at Chao Lu, who was dressed in simple clothes. “Can You Call Me er-er? My name is er-er, and my nickname is er-er.”
“PFFT.”Chao Lu laughed. er-er actually had such a simple nickname. However, she still replied with a smile, “My name is Chao Lu.”
Zhao Lu’s simple smile made er er let down his guard. He jumped and grabbed her hand, asking, “Shall we go and take a look again?”
“What are you looking at? What about that same action... can’t you learn it after learning it once?”
“No, watch them undress!”Er er nodded his head vigorously. Black Grape’s big eyes flashed with Hope again.
Thus, the two of them forgot themselves and moved their feet unhurriedly, shocking brother and sister Niu who were still fighting in the field. Zhao Lu was also shocked. She looked at ER er with a strange gaze. Er Er then opened his mouth and muttered.., “Oh no, I forgot that this is a barrier.”
Brother and sister Niu stared blankly at the two little dolls who suddenly stood up from the melon field, and a trace of panic flashed in their eyes.
Chao Lu pretended to be calm, grabbed er-er’s hand, and turned around to leave. She even waved her hand lightly. “The two of you can continue. This cultivation is not easy, so don’t delay the good time.”
When Fang Fang walked to the side of the awning, he saw brother Niu and sister Lian get up in a panic. They grabbed their clothes and ran away.
Then, Chao Lu touched her head and said to herself, “Brother Niu and sister Lian... could they be the big brother of the Wang family in Green Bull village and the aunt of the tofu shop next door?”
Er’er said, “Oh no, they’re going to go crazy.”
The Green Bull Mountain was thousands of feet high. The two rivers connected at the entrance of the mountain, and a thin stream slowly flowed down from the mountain. It was like a ribbon that slipped down from a woman’s black hair and formed a pool, which was called the black silk spring.
Chao Lu, the Little Daoist who cultivated on the Green Bull Mountain, had been muddleheaded on this mountain for quite a few years.
Sometimes, she would think, what was the benefit of her master sending her to this melon field? For the past ten years, when she drove the pig badger to guard against thieves, she had been thinking about the path of cultivation.
That night, she suddenly realized that... there was such a wonderful thing. What was this called... The Immortal Art of Death?
However, the most important thing was that she could make a good friend. Although morning dew looked silly on the outside, her heart was very clear. Er Er was a natural flower spirit. Occasionally, he was evil, but most of the time, he was kind.
He always called himself er-er from the Hua family.
Er-er often came to play with Zhao Lu. These two children were the only ones running around happily in the mountains and plains. Finally, on a wide grassland, er-er pounced on it and rolled on the ground. He was tickled by the long grass, but he could not help but giggle.
Zhao Lu followed behind er-er. She held a piece of grass that she had plucked casually in her hand and put it in her mouth to chew. The sour juice from the root of the grass slipped into her mouth, causing Zhao Lu to frown slightly and then laugh heartily.
Under the sunlight, Zhao Lu looked at the melon field behind her. She turned around and said to er-er, “I’m going to deliver melons to master. Are you coming with me?”
Er-er was curious. “Deliver melons? To Where?”
“Master, to master’s place.”
“Why does master live on the mountain while you live in the Melon Fields?”
“Master said... that I have to enter the human world to cultivate, so I have always been in the melon fields to experience life.”Chao Lu picked a few good melons and took out two baskets from the awning. Each basket contained five small melons with crispy green skin and a tuft of melon stems. They were really fresh.
Chao Lu lifted the two baskets on her shoulders and frowned slightly. She spread her legs and circulated her origin core in her stomach, using all her strength to carry the two baskets on her shoulders.
“It’s so tiring, let me help you.”Er er reached out and sent out a spell.
Chao Lu hurriedly stopped him, her little face very serious. “No need, master said that delivering melons is also a physical and mental work. If I can do it for a long time, I will definitely be able to cultivate a high level of cultivation.”
Chao Lu walked forward slowly. Er Er held a leaf in his mouth and his face was full of displeasure. He muttered, “You can actually cultivate a body of brute force. Not good, not good.”
They followed the winding mountain path beside the black silk spring. The entire mountain path was not difficult to walk on, but it was indeed steep. There were a few times when er er was sweating deeply behind her. When he saw the melon basket in front of them hit the mountain wall, he was just about to help her stand up straight.., when he was almost knocked to the ground by the melon basket that was thrown at him.
“Hey, be careful.”Er Er held one end of the pole with two fingers and propped himself up from the ground. He casually grabbed the pole and mumbled, “Can you do it or not? Do you want me to help you?”
Zhao Lu gasped for breath and stretched out her hand to shake it. In the end, she staggered and almost fell down from a high place. Er Er, who was experienced and knowledgeable, was scared out of his wits and broke out in a cold sweat.
He hurriedly pulled Zhao Lu and said, “Stop talking, stop talking. Let’s Walk, let’s Walk.”
They walked all the way up. The water from the black silk spring splashed onto their faces and it was very cool. The road was not difficult to walk on and gradually, the clouds disappeared.
In the distance, they could see that the gate of the Taoist temple had already poked out a plaque from the clouds. It was very grand. It had the words “Green Bull Mountain’s Green Cloud Temple”written on it. The square was right in front of them, and on their left and right were a bell tower and a drum tower. In the square, countless white-robed Taoist priests were practicing sword and boxing. It was very lively.
On the left side of the square was the tower of Supreme Harmony, and on the right side was the tower of Supreme Harmony. Directly behind the white-robed Taoist priests was the hall of three pure ones, which worshiped the immortals.
Er er clicked his tongue and said, “No, no, it’s too extravagant. There’s no immortal aura.”However, just as he finished speaking, he saw Chao Lu put down the melon basket and look at the Taoist priests who were practicing sword and boxing with envy and disappointment in her eyes.
He felt a little uncomfortable and stood in front of Chao Lu, shouting, “What’s so good about it? It’s far inferior to our hua family.”
Zhao Lu was slightly taken aback before she smiled foolishly and said, “Master treats me extremely well. I was originally a homeless child. If it weren’t for master, I wouldn’t even know where Zhao Lu would be today.”
The more er er listened, the more upset he felt. He heaved a sigh of relief, but he was especially displeased with those Taoist priests. He quickly asked, “Where should we send them? We should hurry back after sending them off.”
Zhao Lu quickly pointed in the direction of the Zhonghe Building. “Over there. Just send them to the kitchen. There will be senior brothers to assign them places.”
Along with the recitation of scriptures, they turned to the Zhonghe Building. The young Taoist priests in green clothes were busy. When they saw Zhao Lu carrying a burden and walking towards them, they winked at her and walked over.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Lu seemed to be used to it. She called out “Senior brother”and moved the melons into the big vat in the kitchen one by one.
Er er rolled up his sleeves and helped to put them in.
The young Taoist priests in green shouted, “Isn’t this our youngest junior sister?”
“Yes, junior sister, are you still guarding the Melon Field?”
A group of people surrounded her with either good or bad intentions, as if they really cherished this rare junior sister.
Er er frowned and said while holding a melon, “Make way, make way.”
The young Daoists burst into laughter and pointed at Chao Lu as they shouted, “Little junior sister is looking for her little lover. Her little lover has actually come to help.”
Chao Lu was not angry. She put down the last melon and said with a smile, “Senior Brothers, you flatter me. She’s just a friend.”
While the others were still laughing, er’er was already frowning in anger. He was afraid that if he provoked them again, he would have to fight with these young Daoists. However, Chao Lu tugged at the corner of his clothes and refused to let him go forward.
At this moment, a young man in white with a sword on his back ran up and shouted, “What are you making a fuss for? Why aren’t you going to work?”
The young Daoists in green stuck out their tongues and dispersed, leaving the young man in white facing the Sun. He asked with a smile, “Lu'er, how are you?”
This “Lu'er”made er’er’s entire face wrinkle.
The young man in White had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and his nose looked like it was hanging in the air. On his mature face, there was a smile as bright as the clear sky, which made er’er feel a little unhappy. There was also an even stronger sense of jealousy and inferiority.
Indeed, er-er was just a little flower spirit rolling around in the mortal world. However, there was someone who smiled even more heartlessly and brilliantly than Chao Lu.
Just as Chao Lu was about to speak, the white-robed youth’s eyes turned to er-er. His Bright Eyes immediately widened. He instantly took out a bronze mirror from his white daoist robe and shouted, “Evildoer, where do you think you’re Going?”
Er’er jumped back in fright. Chao Lu also panicked and hurriedly grabbed the white-dressed youth’s hand to snatch the bronze mirror. “Senior brother Xin an, Er’er is not a demon.”
Xin an did not believe her and hurriedly pulled out the long sword on his back. The Azure Dragon Mark on the sword rushed past Chao Lu and slashed at Er’er while shouting, “Lu'er, you’ve been targeted by a demon. Watch senior brother vanquish the demon for you.”
Vanquish your sister. Chao Lu’s heart tightened. She saw Er’er pull out a broom from nowhere and shout, “I’m not a demon. I’ll fight.”
“No, no, no. It’s not good if someone sees you.”
No one paid attention to Chao Lu’s shouts. The two of them had already exchanged more than ten blows and fought in the backyard of the building of peace.
The broom already had a slight advantage because it occupied a larger area. With a sweep of the broom, the garden was covered in dust. The only old tree was hit by the residual force of the broom, and its leaves fell off.
Not long after, the group of young Taoist priests in green clothes surrounded them. Seeing that senior brother Xinan was actually fighting with the kid that they did not like, they could not help but shout, “Senior brother Xinan, you can do it!”
Zhao Lu was anxious, but her mana was really low. She knew that Xinan was the only sword-wielding disciple of Taoist master green bull. He could do whatever he wanted on Green Bull Mountain. If this fight attracted the attention of his master, he would definitely be punished.
She could not help but stomp her feet and pass through the flying dust. She finally missed a few sword lights, but when she got close to the two of them, she was stunned on the spot.
He saw that 22 had actually sent Xin an’s Azure Dragon treasured sword flying with a sweep of his broom. He pressed Xin an down to the ground with great force. His eyes were filled with viciousness as he said word by word, “Remember, I’m not a monster. I’m an immortal cultivator.”
Xin An was also very stubborn. He held back his anger and said with a red face, “My heavenly eye won’t be wrong.”
“Pedantic.”22 let go of Xin an’s lapel and clapped his hands. He sat on Xin An’s body with a smug look on his face. “Then hit me, Little Daoist. How dare you challenge me when you’re so weak?”
The Little Daoists in Green were dissatisfied and were about to surround him to avenge their eldest senior brother. Chao Lu saw the opportunity and reached out to 22, wanting to drag him away from the trouble first.
A stern voice came from behind, “What’s going on?”
Chao Lu was not familiar with this voice, but the Little Daoists immediately stood obediently where they were. She was shocked and knew that her master had indeed followed the voice.
“Master, Junior Sister Chao Lu has brought a demon up the mountain. Eldest brother is doing justice on behalf of the heavens.”A young Daoist dressed in green hurriedly presented the gift and pointed at Chao Lu.
This Daoist priest Green Bull’s description was really benevolent. He had a sage-like demeanor and stood upright. He wore a Green Lotus Daoist robe with an eight treasures pendant and a lotus crown on his head. He had the appearance of an immortal cultivation saint.
His eyes were burning as he looked at Chao Lu, but there was no one else beside her. Only Xin an supported himself with the Daoist crown, dusted off his body, and stood beside her with an indifferent expression,
therefore, he frowned and asked, “Xinan, what were you doing just now?”
Xinan hurriedly answered respectfully, “Master Bing, junior sister just wanted to learn a thing or two from Xinan, so Xinan...”
“Nonsense.”Daoist qingniu blew his beard and glared at her. Thinking back, he did not want to take in this girl of unknown origins. The Qingyun Temple of the Green Bull Mountain had always been a place for disciples to expand their wealth. If it were not for Xinan, who really loved the wealth of her family, repeatedly begging him.., “You are my sword-wielding disciple. You are learning the skills that are not taught by Qingyun Mountain. How can you teach me so casually?”
Xin An’s face turned pale and he stopped talking. Chao Lu picked up the broom that she had thrown on the ground and leaned against the tree. She said in a low voice, “Master, I know my mistake. I will go down the mountain now.”
Taoist priest Green Bull held the horsetail whisk and stroked his beard. He narrowed his eyes and nodded.
Under everyone’s mocking gazes, Chao Lu still tried her best to keep a calm smile on her face as she carried the burden on her back and walked out of the neutralization tower.
