The myth begins with the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 13 Lotus Lantern

Seeing this, Yang Jian's expression relaxed a little. He took a small step forward, trying to get closer.

"Second brother."

Yang Chan had already straightened up. In the light and shadow, she bowed, her tone was calm, and with the lingering sound of the fairy, not to mention the emotion, even the original tone of her voice could not be heard.

"Third sister..."

Yang Jian stopped and stretched out a hand as if he wanted to grab something.

In an instant, it seemed as if thousands of emotions flashed in his eyes.

Finally, the outstretched hand dropped down again.

"Brother, what's the matter with you coming here this time?"

Yang Chan asked again, without any intention of dispersing her spiritual light.

"Third sister, look what I brought you."

Yang Jian smiled, and a golden light flashed in his hand, revealing a small bamboo basket. A rich fragrance wafted out of the basket. Just by smelling it, Ding Lin felt that his cultivation was improving rapidly. In just a short while, he had made several years of progress.

"These are two purple peaches."

"The Peach Festival will be held in a few days. I know you will definitely not go, so I went to the Heavenly Palace today when I had some free time and got these two peaches for you."

"..."

There was a long silence.

The figure in the aura seemed to be stunned and did not speak for a long time.

"Second brother, you know, that person's things, I..."

The Third Holy Mother's voice remained peaceful.

"..."

The smile on Yang Jian's face gradually became forced, and finally faded away completely, looking a little lonely.

“I know, but it’s been ten thousand years.” Yang Jian looked at Yang Chan carefully, “Since you became an immortal ten thousand years ago, your cultivation has not improved at all. You are still a true immortal, and your life span is limited…”

"I bought this peach from heaven with something. It was not given by that person like in the past."

"Third sister, you eat now."

Yang Chan didn't move.

"Third sister, this is not that person's thing. It's mine. You can't take away your dear second brother's things."

Yang Jian said again.

His response was still silence.

a long time.

With a flash of golden light, the basket of peaches slipped out of Yang Jian's hand and appeared on the stone table in the pavilion beside the lotus pond.

"I have something else to do. Roaring Sky Dog is gone!"

After speaking, Yang Jian turned around.

In Yang Chan's spiritual light, Roaring Sky Dog licked Yang Chan's finger and then jumped out.

The footsteps faded away, not as vigorous as when they came, but a little more dull.

When they reached the door, the footsteps paused again.

"Third sister, remember, you must eat the peaches."

Yang Jian's voice softened.

Another silence.

In the end, Yang Jian never got the reply he wanted.

"Roaring Sky Dog, let's go."

Yang Jian let out a long breath.

"Second brother," Yang Chan suddenly spoke from behind, her voice still calm, "I heard that this matter is a bit tricky, even Brother Kang was injured."

In the spiritual light, Yang Chan was seen making a gesture with one hand.

Suddenly, the sky spun and the earth spun. Ding Lin looked around and saw countless green light spots flying up from beside him. He looked up again and saw a white lotus in the middle of the sky. Countless green light spots clinged to it, and in just a moment, they formed a green magic lamp.

And now there is only a pool of clear water left in the original lotus pond.

"Second brother, I have lived in Huashan for a long time and rarely go out. This precious lotus lantern has been covered in dust for a long time. You can take it with you on this trip to help a little."

Lotus lantern!
In the pool, Ding Lin suddenly opened his eyes wide.

He never expected that the lotus leaves he had swallowed over the years would actually be transformed from such a magic lamp.

After the shock, there was another wave of fear.

Ding Lin wanted to hide in the pool for a while, but now there was no cover in the pool and everything was in sight. Where could he hide? He could only quietly look up and glance at Yang Chan.

The divine light was like a curtain, and still nothing could be seen.

Yang Chan turned his wrist, pulled and pushed, and the lantern hanging in the air was pushed towards Yang Jian. "No need! They are just some little demons." Yang Jian laughed, counted with one hand, and the invisible magic power stopped the trajectory of the treasure lotus lantern, "Third sister, you are weak, you can keep this treasure lotus lantern for self-defense, second brother has plenty of tricks!"

"Roaring Sky Dog, let's go!"

Golden light fills the earth.

But he has regained the high spirits and vigor he had when he first arrived.

……

yard.

Yang Chan still stood there motionless

The Precious Lotus Lantern was hanging high, and a soft green halo enveloped the courtyard. The spiritual light around Yang Chan was still there, and the double light made her figure even more flickering.

a long time……

"Xu..."

A long sigh.

In mid-air, the Precious Lotus Lanterns scattered, and countless green points of light floated around and fell into the lotus pond. Beside Ding Lin, lotus leaves grew.

In the air, the last white lotus slowly fell.

The aura faded.

The lotus pond returned to its original state.

……

In the small courtyard, Yang Chan's figure had also disappeared.

Missing together.

And there is that basket of peaches.

……

In the pond, Ding Lin was stunned for a moment, then he swung his tail violently.

Dive.

Dive all the way to the deepest point under the water.

……

at night.

The moon is high in the sky and the weather is exceptionally good tonight. There is not a single cloud in the sky and the sky is filled with stars, making the moonlight exceptionally bright.

It is another good weather for practicing.

Ding Lin floated on the water, feeling restless and irritable. He tried to concentrate several times, but was interrupted by the random thoughts in his mind. He couldn't calm down.

This pond of lotus leaves and lotus flowers is the Precious Lotus Lantern.

He ate this for many years.

Yang Chan should know this.

In myths and legends, Third Holy Mother Yang Chan is a benevolent deity. She should be aware of her existence. Since she did not take it seriously before, she probably will not pursue the responsibility again.

What's next?
Today I saw the magic of the Precious Lotus Lantern. Will I be able to chew lotus leaves like I did before?

Don’t be surprised if you don’t know.

Shouldn't those who already knew about it be blamed?
But if I don’t eat lotus leaves, what should I eat and what can I eat?
"rustle……"

Light footsteps sounded.

Ding Lin was alert for a moment, he turned his head to look at the edge of the pool, and sure enough, the fairy maid came again. She raised her white hand lightly and threw down a pill as usual. Ding Lin took it, but this time he did not immediately dive back into the water to refine it. He held the pill in his mouth and just looked at the fairy maid.

The demonic energy in the body circulated, refining the throat bone non-stop.

As early as several years ago, Ding Lin was able to open his larynx and speak.

But a talking fish.

How can people feel at ease?
But now, Ding Lin couldn't care less about these things. If he didn't clarify some things, he wouldn't be able to live in the future.

"Want to talk?" The fairy maid looked at Ding Lin, smiling, "You are really smart. Let me guess what you want to ask."

She raised her finger and pointed at the lotus leaves in the pond.

The evil spirit in Ding Lin's body paused.

"Don't worry, the Precious Lotus Lantern is a rare treasure in the world, a spiritual treasure. The little bit you ate will be replenished from the world in a breath. Otherwise, I wouldn't put you here to save the trouble of feeding the fish. I won't blame you."

This tone...

You are an immortal servant, but you talk as if the Precious Lotus Lantern belongs to you.

Ding Lin was secretly dissatisfied, but since the fairy maid said so, he felt a little relieved.

Really, there is no other choice.
