Wet viviparity

Chapter 289 Sword Dance, Fame Spreads
Xie Chunchi's face changed, and he tried to suppress his discomfort. He glanced at Ji Ming, his eyes flashed, and he said with a forced smile, "Well, Sister Xinmei, go into the cave first. I will send the spirit geese in the cave to call my mother back."

Xiong Kong'er didn't say anything. He looked at Ji Ming, then at Xie Chunchi, and sighed slightly in his heart.

In the past, in order to reverse Mei Niang's situation, he had disguised himself as a handsome man and tried to seduce Xie Chunchi in every possible way. However, it was strange that this slut was obviously a person with a fickle heart and soul, but he was not able to seduce her successfully.

Now that the Taoist priest was by his side, he realized that although Xie Chunchi had not yet severed his ties to worldly affairs, he seemed only to be interested in people with profound Taoist attainments and heroes in the world.

"Mei Niang, be careful."

Xiong Konger gave these instructions beside Madam Zhang.

The Taoist's help here is undoubtedly a timely assistance to them, but if they are seduced by the lowly maid, not only will his conscience be uneasy, but it will also be disadvantageous to their situation.

"Don't worry, with Xie Chunchi's skills, it will be very difficult to succeed."

In front of Ji Ming, Xie Chunchi, looking like a beautiful girl from a small family, led the way and walked into the small lake. The lake water parted on her side, revealing a path paved with crystal water.

On both sides of the path, there are various kinds of precious jades planted, with various shapes of Ganoderma lucidum, coral, and banana, which are magnificent. The myriad of brilliant lights on this peak are the sunlight falling into the precious jades under the lake.

The path leads directly to a cave under the lake, with the words "Shennong Cave" written on a jade plaque at the entrance.

As they walked along, many shrimp and crab soldiers swam over and lined up in the water curtains on both sides. A few monsters even whispered something to Zhang Xinmei through the water curtains, without avoiding Xie Chunchi at all.

Ji Ming took all of this in, and Madam Zhang seemed to be particularly fascinated by it.

Xie Chunchi was walking in front, and suddenly turned his head, revealing his delicate profile, and asked, "Master, where are you practicing?"

Ji Ming smiled, made hand gestures, and bowed, saying, "I am Lingxuzi, currently practicing in Guhezhou. I traveled all the way here to see the local customs and practices in the mountains. I am sorry to bother Miss Xie."

He revealed his real name because he would meet Tiebeigu later and the lie would be easily exposed.

"Meeting is fate, why bother?"

After hearing about Ji Ming's origins, Xie Chunchi smiled even more and said, "I heard that more than 20 years ago, our Panku disciples were still able to walk in the land of Taoism, but now they are trapped in this poor mountain and bad water.

Since Taoist Lingxu is in Guhezhou, he must be famous. I wonder if it would damage Taoist's reputation if I visit him."

"Haha~" Ji Ming shook his head and laughed, "I have always hated red tape, and I don't like to discriminate against side sects. Dajiu is just an ordinary cultivator, under the same three heavens, why should we distinguish between different levels based on our background?"

As soon as these words came out, Ji Ming clearly felt the surprised looks from Zhang Xinmei and Xiong Konger.

Once you enter the cave, you can see jade walls everywhere, the light can illuminate people, and where you stand are pieces of glazed crystal bricks. Through the large area of ​​crystal bricks, you can also see the fish swimming below. It really broadens your horizons.

Going further, you can see a screen wall that is used to separate the inside from the outside.

The base of the wall is cleverly carved with patterns, and the body of the wall is made of emerald jade. There is a picture of a centipede coiled under a pine tree and a poem inscribed on it. The top of the wall is in the style of a dripping glazed tile eaves, and behind the screen wall there are dwarf pine trees poking out.

After going around the screen wall, you can see a jade staircase leading upwards. On the staircase is a dark iron bridge that crosses a river that originates from nowhere and leads to a golden and jade building.

Standing on the bridge, seeing the cold waves, the dancing waves, the leaping silver fish and the flashing silver light below, Ji Ming suddenly felt that the furnishings and scenery in his own Shushi Cave were too shabby.

The iron bridge is about sixty to seventy feet long and ends in front of the Jinyu Tower.

Halfway across the bridge, Ji Ming suddenly stopped, squatted down, and placed his palms on the bridge. "This bridge is actually a centipede shell!"

Seeing the Taoist priest so surprised, Xie Chunyu covered his mouth and smiled, "This is what my mother shed. She wanted to make a treasure armor for me, but I thought it was too ugly, so I asked my mother to put it here and use it as a bridge. It will be a different view."

"really!"

Ji Ming nodded slightly. This curved centipede shell bridge, built over the river, with thousands of centipede legs standing on both sides and old vines tied across them to form railings, was quite quaint and unique.

Seeing that Ji Mingzhen was really appreciating the structure of the bridge, Xie Chunyu happily introduced the idea behind the initial construction of the bridge, all the way to the Jinyu Building. In the Jinyu Building, there was a stone bed, a cauldron, and everything else. There was also a spiritual pine tree growing in the building, with needles all in a brilliant golden color, shining brightly and dazzlingly.

In the building, Xie Chunchi did not just try to please Ji Ming. He took out a sword from a box and danced quickly in the building.

There were insect images on both sides of the sword, a centipede and a scorpion, dancing like a ball of phantom light, wrapping Xie Chunchi around and rolling in the building.

Inside the building, Ji Ming couldn't help but cheer. Xie Chunchi's swordsmanship was almost at the point where her body and sword became one, which slightly changed his previous impression of this woman.

"Brother Dao, look at the sword!"

During the sword dance, the wandering look in Xie Chunchi's eyes faded a little, and he sent the phantom light in his hand towards Ji Ming.

Ji Ming was also itching to try his skills, so he clapped his hands and smiled, then he flashed and strode into the phantom light. This frightened Xie Chunchi so much that she slightly slowed down the speed of the sword in her hand. Ji Ming turned his hand, and the sword almost slipped out of Xie Chunchi's hand, which made her dare not be careless, so she threw the sword away and used her soul to wield it instead.

The sword stretched and retracted, sometimes longer, sometimes shorter, and the sword energy became more and more terrifying. Ji Ming looked relaxed, but he did not dare to be careless in his heart. He waved his hand in the air, and a green wind came out, chasing the sword away.

"The will of the law!"

Xie Chunchi secretly thought that she was not mistaken. The Taoist in front of her was indeed of great origin. She did not want to be looked down upon by him. She and Zhang Xinmei had always been at odds with each other. She might have said something bad about her behind her back.

The sword shuttled faster in the green wind, the sword body shone with light, and faintly dragged out a centipede and a scorpion, which were running up and down in the wind.

Ji Ming felt some pressure, this sword was not an ordinary magic sword, it might have been included in the category of treasures, it would be impossible to suppress the sword by force, so he clapped his hands, and a green wind blew, wrapping up Xie Chunchi and holding him in his hand.

"I'm sorry, thank you Miss!"

Xie Chunchi felt the coldness on the back of his neck, his cheeks flushed, and he said softly, "Brother, just call me Li Li."

"娐娐!"

Ji Ming thought of the name and touched the side of his face.

If he had just vaguely sensed that this woman was interested in him, then now he was undoubtedly certain of it, and he thought to himself that he still had some charm, although most of this charm came from his practice and identity.

"The Grandmaster is here."

Madam Zhang had been waiting anxiously, and when she saw a flying figure outside the building, she couldn't help but be overjoyed.

A shadow flew into the building, revealing a middle-aged woman with gray and white hair on her forehead, wearing a scarlet robe and walking barefoot. There was a thousand-footed Dharma wheel on her back, twitching randomly, and her eyes were fixed on Ji Ming.

"senior!"

Ji Ming greeted politely.

"The Six-Fingered Golden Boy from Heguan Sect!"

Tiebeigu revealed Ji Ming's true nature in one sentence, which made Ji Ming feel nervous.

"Yes."

Ji Ming smiled stiffly and said, "Senior, please be wise. I am the Golden Boy, but I am unknown to you."

"You already have a Taoist name, and you are listed in Tiancao. You are not only a talented person in Taiping Mountain, but also a direct disciple of Huoxu Cave. Although I am dedicated to my cultivation here, I also need to understand you, a Taoist who will be the leader of the righteous path in the future."

Ji Ming couldn't help but sigh, after all, he was a fourth-level golden elixir, and his words were unusually sweet.

At one side, Xie Chunchi's beautiful eyes were filled with joy. He felt that he had a good eye for talent and was glad that he had suppressed his jealousy towards Zhang Xinmei and did not make a fool of himself in front of this Taoist fellow.
