Accompanied by the melodious sound of the zither, a group of beautiful women dressed in gorgeous garments, holding wine cups, with lively eyes and graceful demeanor, came gracefully, like fairies descending to earth. The wine cups exuded a rich and mellow aroma, and the beauties' delicate features appeared even more charming in the candlelight. They either sang softly, shyly lowered their heads, or elegantly raised their cups to savor. Every frown and smile revealed a unique charm.
Your Highness, young masters, these beauties are all carefully selected from various places, and the petals used in Plum Blossom Wine are the freshest parts they delicately plucked with their mouths. After soaking in the cold spring of Plum Mountain and being embraced for half a month, the wine can fully ferment. After the fragrance of the wine overflows and impurities are filtered out, only then can this ultimate and pure Plum Blossom Wine be obtained.
Mei Ziling After hearing this, I put down my wine glass and sighed, "The cold spring of Plum Mountain is extremely cold. If these girls continue like this for a long time, their lifespan will surely be greatly reduced. I fear they may not live past thirty, it's pitiful and lamentable."
"Mr. Ziling, if you truly pity them, then cherish them well. Fine wine and beautiful women often lead ordinary people astray, not realizing the emptiness after the wine is gone."
"Brother Ziling, do not be overly sorrowful. When I was young in the palace, I witnessed the imperial physician planting longevity elixirs in the organs of young women. These elixirs are like gluttons, crazily absorbing the vitality of the body over the next ten years, until the very last moment of life when they are extracted."
"Smelling it is sad, seeing it is heartbreaking. Your Highness, Young Masters, why don't each of you choose one to take back, with a little care in the future, you can dispel the cold illness and prolong your life." If you feel happy, it's not difficult to have a son and a daughter.
Hearing these words, the beauties shyly lowered their heads. In their charming and moving expressions, there was both excitement and helplessness, revealing a deep sense of powerlessness towards the unknown.
A little carelessness would mean stepping from one hell into another. For them, fate has always been the master, not something they can choose for themselves.
Alas! Liu Jingzhi sighed helplessly, with a hint of drunkenness in his voice, saying, "Trapped in the palace, even if I have the intention, I am powerless. I'd rather not. If any of you noble brothers have such intentions, instead of offering yourselves, at least you can ensure their livelihood."
I am just like His Highness, I won't compete with you. I already have a beloved in my heart, how can I give up halfway? Unless Eldest Uncle speaks, I will also save all beings, otherwise I would be letting down the heartfelt intentions of the beauty.
Qiushan, today I must compete with you to let you know that I, Xu Yulin, not only have talent but also fists, and I will beat you until you don't recognize your own relatives.
Plop! Before the conversation was finished, the two of them fell on the table, unconscious. Mei Ziling helplessly played with the delicate hand of the beauty and said, "These guys, we agreed to drink until we drop, but they've already fallen down. How boring."
"If Mr. Ziling is not satisfied, this young lady can accompany you for a few more drinks. In my wine cellar, apart from fine wine and beautiful women, there is also a precious tripod obtained several years ago. Although it is damaged, its quality is truly rare. Mr. Ziling, are you interested?"
"It's worth a look. In the path of Dao, precious artifacts are crucial. To be honest, over the years, I have been searching for materials to forge artifacts that certify the Dao."
"Mr. Ziling Please follow me."
In the backyard of Plum Village, there is a small courtyard that is particularly eye-catching. Normally, Ms.Mei prohibits others from approaching this area, not because it holds any secrets, but because it conceals danger.
Every plant and tree in the courtyard is covered with a layer of copper rust, extending all the way to the door.
"Mr. Ziling, this treasure is indeed in the house, but it is very strange. Any living being that touches it will immediately turn into bronze."
Mei Ziling's spiritual knowledge spread out in the courtyard, and in a tattered box, a fist-sized Bronze Tripod was found.
Although this bronze tripod is small, it is exquisitely crafted, with inscriptions all over the body, triple entente hollowed out, a phoenix with wings spread in the center, and triple entente on both sides are golden dragons entwined, forming the tripod ears. The body of the tripod is deep and round, with three legs supporting it at the bottom.
Its emitted waves are exceptionally strong, as if containing endless space, hollow enough to swallow everything. The power to petrify everything is surging from the triple entente. Mei Ziling reached out from a distance, and the small tripod began to shake. In an instant, the bronze rust spread rapidly throughout the entire courtyard like frost. "Indeed, it is a treasure from the Bronze Ruins. Ms.Mei, where did you obtain it from?"
"Don't hide it from Mr. Ziling, this item was obtained by my late husband ten years ago, and after he handed it over to me, he disappeared without a trace. Three years ago, this cauldron suddenly erupted, and the sisters who couldn't escape all perished in it."
"This cauldron is extraordinary, its power is unheard of. Even the most powerful individuals would be in grave danger if they were to come into contact with it."
"If Mr. Ziling is interested, I am willing to leave this treasure for you."
" Ms.Mei presenting this precious gift must have a request. In that case, why not seek help from The Sixth Prince?"
"Because I don't trust them."
"Them? Why do you say so, Ms.Mei?"
"Mr. Ziling Please do not misunderstand, the three gentlemen are all good people, only The Sixth Prince is the one I find hard to figure out. The only thing I can be sure of is that everything he does is deliberate."
" Ms.Mei worries too much. Born in the royal family, without a bit of scheming and means, it is probably difficult to survive."
"I am not trying to sow discord between Mr. Ziling and His Highness. If there is anything inappropriate, I hope Mr. Ziling can forgive me."
"No harm, Ms.Mei, just tell me frankly, you must be an upright person."
"Mr. Ziling, knowing well that my words just now will bring trouble, why did you still choose to agree?"
"If not for the sake of answering, then perhaps for a moment of spring night, or for each to take what they need."
"How should a young lady repay Mr. Ziling's kindness? Please advise," the Ms.Mei asked with a smile.
"I see the moon tonight is like a silver plate, the stars are like precious stones. Fine wine and a beautiful companion, together we can enjoy the moonlight by the window, truly a delightful experience."
"The young lady will follow Mr. Ziling's words carefully."
Gazing at the moon hanging high in the sky, as bright as a silver plate, emitting a soft light that poured through the window, creating a picturesque scene in every corner of the room. Mei Ziling leaned gently against Ms.Mei, with a thousand thoughts in her heart. " Mr. Ziling, if you are interested in me, would you allow me to change clothes for you?" Ms.Mei softly and tenderly asked, her lips slightly parted. However, Mei Ziling seemed to be preoccupied and gazed outside, lost in thought: "I am contemplating that small tripod; its quality must be extraordinary, most likely a treasure born with the sun and moon. If I could subdue it, perhaps it could become the first treasure on my path to enlightenment."
Upon hearing this, Ms.Mei couldn't help but be stunned, jokingly saying: "Mr. Ziling should be the first person in history to be so absorbed in an inanimate object while in the embrace of a beauty, rather than thinking about love and children. Could it be that not even my own beauty can captivate him, causing me to doubt my appearance."
Mei Ziling softly replied, "To have seen the beauty of Ms.Mei is already a great honor. As for intimacy, I dare not ask for such a thing. After all, Ms.Mei is already promised to another, and my actions have already overstepped."
"No matter, my husband has been missing for many years, feared to have long been dead and gone in the wilderness. Since the past is gone, it may not be unacceptable for Mr. Ziling to temporarily take his place."
Upon hearing this, Mei Ziling's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. "So, Ms.Mei, I understand your meaning. He's gone, so I can come in now."
Mr. Ziling was quite straightforward, which made the lady feel shy. However, despite the rough words, it was what she had in mind. With cheeks blushing, she lowered her head, and it seemed like their breaths resonated with each other.
As the thin veil slowly slipped away, a jade back as white as snow was revealed, seemingly exuding a sense of spring. A delicate hand gently slid down to the delicate and beautiful jade foot, until a soft moan was heard. Suddenly, the slender leg stretched straight, and the delicate toe also stretched straight, with a slight tremor, like a willow branch in the spring breeze.
Ms.Mei is full of surprise and shyness in her heart. Just as she was about to shout it out, she was covered by a warm breath. She only felt a pair of gentle lips pressed tightly against her, making her unable to speak, only feeling the joyous breath echoing in the air.
Suddenly, a creaking sound broke the lingering spring atmosphere. It turned out that the old wooden bed could not bear the weight of the two, and its four legs broke apart.
At the same time, a tender voice came from outside the window, curiously asking, " Ms.Mei, what's happening?" Upon hearing this voice, a blush appeared on Ms.Mei's face, and she secretly rejoiced in her heart.
The two exchanged a glance and couldn't help but show a knowing smile. Ms.Mei slowly stood up and took out a red pill from an exquisite jade bottle. The pill emitted a faint fragrance, bringing a sense of tranquility.
Ms.Mei said softly, "This is the Conception-Preventing Pill. I have accumulated cold energy in my abdomen, and I fear that if I become pregnant, the child will not survive. I've decided not to trouble Mr. Ziling with this."
Mei Ziling comforted her, "You're worrying too much, Ms.Mei. I've already dispelled half of the cold energy in your body just now. With my current level of cultivation, I only need to do this three more times to completely eliminate the cold illness in your abdomen."
Ms.Mei listened and a hint of anticipation flashed in her eyes as she asked, "What happens after the third time?" Mei Ziling smiled slightly and replied, "After the third time, it will be countless times." Then, he gently pinched Ms.Mei's cheek.
Ms.Mei glared at him coquettishly and muttered, "Mr. Ziling, you are so naughty. I'm not going to pay attention to you."
Turning around, the two embraced tightly and slowly drifted off to sleep. In the midst of the tranquility of Plum Village, no one noticed that a sudden and unexpected change was quietly taking place in the Retreat.
The originally broken Bronze Tripod suddenly began to tremble, emitting a deep buzzing sound. Then, fresh red thorns slowly crawled out of it, dripping with blood-like appearance, and rapidly spread in all directions as if they were alive.
These thorns intertwined densely, forming a huge red spider web that covered the entire Retreat. The tip of each thorn shimmered with a sharp cold light, and scattered human skulls hung on them, exuding a strong sense of death. This eerie scene was chilling, as if being in hell.
Mei Ziling woke up from a nightmare and carried the Ms.Mei through the roof. As they stood high above and looked down, all they could see was the endless jungle of thorns, which made them feel a sense of horror.
"Big brother!" the shout echoed in the air, and then they saw Xu Yulin and three others breaking through the thorns to lead a group of women to escape, but Liu Jingzhi was nowhere to be seen.
"Younger brother, take them to the Recruitment Office! I will go save His Highness."
At this moment, Ms.Mei tightly held Mei Ziling's hand, her eyes full of worry and unease as she softly said, "Mr. Ziling, don't go..."
Mei Ziling just smiled slightly and reassured, "Don't worry, I didn't die three years ago, and nothing will happen Three years later." With that, his figure disappeared from the original spot and rushed into the grim cage that was like a huge mouth of blood. Where his footsteps reached, the blood-colored thorns that swept in all directions shattered and cracked.
Liu Jingzhi did not show much surprise at Mei Ziling's arrival, as if everything was expected. He wore a jade pendant on his chest, continuously emitting light to form a strong shield protecting him.
However, upon closer observation, one would notice that this jade pendant has three subtle cracks, as if it could shatter at any moment.
Mei Ziling looked at the scene before him, silently contemplating. He knew that this jade pendant was Liu Jingzhi's last line of defense, and he must quickly find a way to escape the predicament.
"Mr. Ziling, please don't worry about me. If I were to meet my end here, I only hope that you can bring my body back to Meizhou for burial..." Liu Jingzhi's voice was calm and resolute, as if he had long since come to terms with life and death.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid it won't be as you wish. If this thing kills you, there won't even be ashes left."
"This joke is not funny at all. My protective treasure is reaching its limit. You should leave quickly. Jingzhi won't blame you."
"Your Highness, life and death will depend on fate from now on. Are you ready?"
Liu Jingzhi nodded, although he had not known Mei Ziling for long, his inner intuition told him that he would not meet his end here today.
Accompanied by a low buzzing sound, the surrounding space seemed to be shaken by some mysterious force, beginning to tremble violently.
All objects lost their original forms, contorting and distorting beyond recognition. The light seemed to be manipulated by an unseen hand, bending in a strange and fascinating way into peculiar arcs of light.
This twisted force quickly spread, enveloping every inch of space. All things gradually became blurred.
People's senses were also gradually fading away. They watched helplessly as their existence was mercilessly erased, as if they had fallen into an endless nightmare.
At that moment, a deep, dark abyss suddenly appeared behind Mei Ziling, like a bottomless chasm of chaos. Ancient and mysterious characters shimmered with a faint light at the mouth of the abyss, exuding a palpable ancient aura.
Immediately after, those ferocious and terrifying blood-red thorns were helplessly sucked into the black hole, disappearing without a trace in an instant. At the same time, the bronze tripod also collapsed and shattered, turning into countless fragments that merged into the black hole, becoming one with it. The cycle path entity became incredibly real in that instant, no longer ethereal and elusive as before, as if it truly existed in this world.
However, just when Mei Ziling thought everything had settled, something unexpected happened—the originally calm soul pond suddenly began to churn violently, and a powerful force surged out from within!
Immediately afterwards, countless sharp and pointed thorns pierced the soul pond, breaking through the body from within the soul. In the blink of an eye, breaking free from the constraints of the body, tightly wrapping around it. As time passed, the body entwined by thorns gradually turned into a huge blood-red cocoon, its surface shimmering with an eerie light, sending shivers down one's spine.
