Chapter 305: The Secret of the 4th Realm Guardian and the Divine Wandering (1)
"Hey, Lao Li! What brings you here?"
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year!"
Nangong Chunshui did not stick around Luo Shui, and he spared no effort to travel thousands of miles to Qiandong City to find Wen Yanzhao. It was definitely not just a simple visit to reminisce about the past.
Wen Yanzhao knew this very well.
Wen Yanzhao glanced at the figure transformed by Nangong Chunshui's spiritual consciousness. Although he smiled, his "Happy New Year" was quite perfunctory.
Nangong Chunshui walked in a square step, walked in front of Wen Yanzhao and whispered threateningly:
"Wen Yanzhao, you have done great things in Qiandong City!"
Wen Yanzhao pursed his lips and rolled his eyes:
"Why, do you want to intervene?"
Nangong Chunshui straightened his body and did a tactical backward move:
"Interfere? I promised Xiao Yi to protect the Xiao family for a hundred years. Humph! Besides, it's been over a hundred years now. I'm too lazy to interfere in the mundane world!"
"Except for my beloved disciple Feng Qi, who among the younger generation of the Xiao family is worthy of our attention?
Not to mention that Xiao Chongjing's unworthy descendants are trying to plot a plan to surround and kill me. I'm considered to be well-mannered if I don't demolish his palace..."
Wen Yanzhao was of course happy that Nangong Chunshui complained about the Xiao family, as this also dispelled his worries.
If Nangong Chunshui intervenes to stop him from conquering the Beili Dynasty in the future, he is a top master in the Great Divine Wandering Profound Realm and must not be underestimated.
Seeing Wen Yanzhao snickering, Nangong Chunshui's mouth twitched:
"What are you laughing at, kid? Are you planning something bad again?"
Wen Yanzhao coughed a few times and said:
"Cough cough!"
"This is not the place to talk. Come on, follow me into the house!"
Nangong Chunshui followed Wen Yanzhao with a suspicious look on his face, turned around the tent and entered a dark room at the back.
"Old Li, you're welcome, just sit anywhere."
After entering the dark room, Wen Yanzhao waved his hands and the blue candlelight in the room immediately lit up.
Wen Yanzhao's dark room was simply furnished. Apart from a four-foot square elm table and a few wooden chairs, there was also a huge stone tripod.
The stone tripod is carved from granite, about 16 feet high and more than 2 feet wide.
The body of the tripod is also engraved with dense inscriptions, all of which are written in vigorous small seal script.
Nangong Chunshui looked at the large cauldron in front of him curiously, and heard a rustling sound inside the cauldron as if something was crawling.
From time to time, there were sounds of insects and snakes biting each other, which made Nangong Chunshui extremely uncomfortable and even gave him goose bumps.
"Stinky boy, is this cauldron used to refine Gu?"
Nangong Chunshui asked with a look of disgust.
Wen Yanzhao pulled out two palm-sized red sandalwood wine gourds from nowhere and threw one to Nangong Chunshui:
"You're asking even though you already know the answer. There's no way anyone in the Wen family doesn't know how to make Gu."
"Old Li, try this! This is the 'Nine Layers of Drunk' I brewed in my free time before the New Year. I have Xiao Baili to thank for this, as he taught me some brewing techniques!"
Nangong Chunshui reached out and grabbed the gourd, uncorking it without a second thought...
In an instant, the strong aroma of wine mixed with a strange meaty aroma entered Nangong Chunshui's nostrils.
Nangong Chunshui couldn't help but close her eyes and sniffed carefully. The smell was really intoxicating.
Just as he was about to pour it into his mouth, he suddenly froze, then put the cork back in with a look of frustration:
"Thank you for your kindness, but unfortunately, my consciousness is out of my body, so I can't drink it even if I want to!"
Wen Yanzhao took a sip and smacked his lips.
"Oh, you see, I forgot about that! Then next time...definitely?"
As he spoke, he reached out to take back the wine gourd and casually stuffed it into the storage space.
This thing is not ordinary. It is called Nine-Layered Drunk, but it should actually be called "Nine-Insect Drunk"!
Ever since Wen Yanzhao came to Qiandong City, he has been working day and night to refine more medicine as quickly as possible.
This disturbed my sleep, and I couldn't fall asleep after three o'clock in the morning. So I picked out some useful nine kinds of insects from the leftover materials from refining Gu, and combined them with the nourishing herbs I stole from Xin Baicao last time to brew this wine.
(If you want to know which nine insects they are—they are water lice, fire ants, male silkworm moths, nine-scented insects, ebony centipedes, leeches, earthworms, inch-gold scorpions, and earthworms… Don’t ask, the answer is they’re all very nourishing!)
Nangong Chunshui leaned on his arm, hesitant:
"Do you know why I came to you this time with my spiritual consciousness?"
Wen Yanzhao said indifferently: "You don't want me to wish you a happy new year, do you? You shouldn't be that bored..."
Nangong Chunshui gave a playful smile: "It's just a side note!"
"Of course, the real business is much more important than this..."
Wen Yanzhao drank a few sips of "Nine Insects Drunk", stood up from the chair, walked to the stone tripod, took out a handful of brown powder from his arms and sprinkled it in.
The cauldron immediately began to boil, and the sound of hundreds of insects biting at it made Nangong Chunshui feel a chill.
"Business? You, Old Li, besides showing off with your apprentice, go out drinking and picking up girls. You have business to talk to me about? Then tell me more!"
Nangong Chunshui didn't mind that Wen Yanzhao always called him "Old Li". After all, when he was still Li Changsheng, he and Wen Yanzhao joked around every day, and there was no seniority between them at all.
Nangong Chunshui also stood up and said seriously:
"Since you are one of the few people left in the world who have reached the Mysterious Realm, I will tell you the greatest secret of this world!"
Wen Yanzhao's heart moved when he heard this, he turned his head and stared at Nangong Chunshui and said:
"The biggest secret?"
"Isn't it about your old romantic past, Old Li?"
Nangong Chunshui's figure trembled, and his eyes rolled back:
"Go away...I see you're becoming less and less serious!"
"This is a matter of great importance to all the people of the world and all the warriors. However, only those who have reached the Divine Wandering Profound Realm are qualified to know about it!"
Seeing Nangong Chunshui so solemn, Wen Yanzhao stopped teasing him:
"Then I'm all ears."
Nangong Chunshui spoke slowly:
"The world's limit is more than ten thousand miles."
“North of Beili, beyond the ice fields of the outer world, there is the Far North;”
"South of Nanjue, beyond Nanjue Danzhou, the end of the world, there is also the southernmost land;"
"To the east lies the vast ocean, but beyond the Penglai Fairy Island in the east, there are places that the people of the Central Plains have never set foot on;"
"The thirty-six Buddhist kingdoms in the Western Regions are far from being the border of the West. The Far West is thousands of miles away!"
Wen Yanzhao thought to himself:
"It seems that there is indeed a vast world outside the Four Boundaries! When I first entered the Divine Journey, I consulted the most knowledgeable Confucian Immortal Gu Chen, but he knew very little about the Four Boundaries!"
"It seems that this guy, Old Li, is really quite capable. Let's hear what he has to say!"
After Nangong Chunshui finished speaking, he looked at Wen Yanzhao with burning eyes:
"Do you know why I told you about the Four Realms?"
Wen Yanzhao simply pretended to be stupid, shook his head woodenly and replied, "I don't know!"
Nangong Chunshui almost laughed out loud when he saw him like this, but he suppressed it:
"Outside the Four Realms, there are legendary immortals from other realms. They are different from the so-called earth immortals and ghost immortals in the Middle-earth!"
"No one knows where these immortals from outside the realm came from, nor do they know why they invaded the Central Plains territory within the four borders."
"However... in order to resist the invasion of these alien immortals, the four great families have been resisting them in the four polar regions of east, south, west and north. This is why the Central Plains has not been harmed by those alien immortals!"
Hearing this, Wen Yanzhao nodded secretly. The information revealed by Nangong Chunshui was no different from what he knew in the original drama.
However, it seems that he knows more secrets about the immortals outside the four realms.
"That's not right, Old Li. If they've become immortals, why would they invade the Central Plains? Besides ordinary people with mortal bodies, there's nothing here worthy of an immortal's covetousness, right?"
Nangong Chunshui pondered for a moment, then slowly uttered a sentence that shocked Wen Yanzhao:
"No, those so-called immortals from outside the realm are nothing but monsters that seek to devour all living things and increase their lifespan!"
