I use my supernatural powers to prove my immortality

Chapter 312: Offering peaches to the birthday star [asking for monthly votes]

"The Ning family of Taiyang County presented a Shoushan stone and a 200-year-old fire date to the old lady, wishing her a long life and happiness as vast as the East Sea."

"The Lu family of Shanyin presented the old lady with a 300-year-old ginseng and a can of pearls, wishing her good fortune and everlasting happiness."

Zhong Yurou is the granddaughter of Zhong Liting. If calculated according to the Zhong family's generation ranking of "settling down and establishing a career, cultivating virtue and nourishing life", Zhong Yurou is strictly speaking of the "Xiu" generation.

However, in the Zhong family's ranking custom, women are generally not ranked together with men based on seniority.

Zhong Yurou can be considered a leader among the younger generation of the Zhong family.

Their status is somewhat similar to that of the "immortal seedlings" of Zhong Lixiao's generation, but because the family is so large, the immortal seedlings are also seriously inward-looking.

Zhong Yurou was assigned to guard Crab Claw Island early on!
but.

When their grandmother celebrated her birthday, Zhong Yurou, the most promising granddaughter, was treated as an outstanding representative and entertained guests from all over the world together with other grandchildren.

Zhong Yurou quite likes this.

However, as the number of distinguished guests increased, the novelty wore off and Zhong Yurou couldn't help feeling a little tired.

At this moment, a woman suddenly descended from the sky riding a flying sword.

When Zhong Yurou saw the girl's appearance, she immediately matched her with a portrait in her memory.

Not only Zhong Yurou, but also others who recognized this woman, all ran over, bowed and said, "Meeting Master Ning."

That’s right, this woman was none other than Ning Yunzhi, who had come all the way here to celebrate the birthday after hearing the news.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that in the eyes of some people, Ning Yunzhi is just Zhong Lixiao’s “least promising” second disciple. She even had her flying sword knocked down during a fight, and she looked extremely miserable.

but.

For the vast majority of cultivators in the world, Ning Yunzhi's identity as a "true disciple of Baiyun Temple" alone is enough to attract them.

Ning Yunzhi looked at Zhong Yurou and the people who had gathered around her, nodded slightly and said, "I, your humble disciple, have come specially to celebrate Master's birthday. Senior Brother and Third Sister are a little far away, but they will definitely be able to rush back in time to celebrate Master's birthday today."

Zhong Yurou smiled when she heard this and said respectfully, "I'm sure my grandmother is very happy that Master Ning can come. Please take a seat in the inner courtyard."

Zhong Yurou was indeed very happy.

The arrival of Ning Yunzhi's people meant that their relationship with Baiyun Temple had not been severed.

For the Taiyang Zhong family, which has been on a downward trend, this is like erecting another pillar to support the sky.

Seeing this, the other people who came to the manor to celebrate the birthday became more enthusiastic, and everyone laughed even more happily.

Ning Yunzhi was welcomed all the way from the main gate into the elegant pavilion in the backyard.

The place was packed with guests and it was very lively along the way.

Many people who came to celebrate the birthday gathered in groups of three or four, chatting about everything, and the atmosphere was lively.

After entering the elegant pavilion, Ning Yunzhi discovered that there were only a few guests sitting in the pavilion.

The person accompanying her was none other than Zhong Liting, the current head of the Zhong family. As for the identities of those guests, Ning Yunzhi knew almost none of them.

Ning Yunzhi had some understanding of Zhong Liting.

Master Zhong Lixiao’s elder brother was the only “immortal seedling” left in the Taoyuan Zhong family.

It has been very hard working to run the family business these years, and it is inevitable that the progress of my cultivation has been affected a little.

Even so, Ning Yunzhi was still very respectful when she saw her master's former brother.

because.

Master is the best master in the world!

Maybe they are together less often than they are apart, but whenever they have questions about their practice, the master can always give them detailed and easy-to-understand answers.

When it comes to cultivation resources, Master is never stingy.

Take the Foundation Establishment Pill for example, her master had already prepared an exaggerated amount for her long ago.

She didn't think much of it at the time, but when her master passed away and she had to fight for resources on her own, Ning Yunzhi began to understand more and more how good her master was.

Ning Yunzhi bowed deeply and said, "I, your humble disciple, pay my respects to my uncle."

Upon seeing this, Zhong Liting quickly reached out and helped Ning Yunzhi up, his heart filled with emotion.

Zhong Liting knew much more about Ning Yunzhi than those younger generations did in the past.

He even knew that Yunzhi had once been almost tied up by the family and sent to the Eleventh Brother, but he did not expect that she would become the Eleventh Brother's beloved disciple in the blink of an eye.

It instantly became a sensation in the entire Taiyang County!

But I didn't expect that when we met again, everything would have changed.

Ning Yunzhi was very respectful, but Zhong Liting was very polite.

Even if he wanted to, how could he really treat Ning Yunzhi as a junior?
Not only Zhong Liting, the host, but all the distinguished guests in the elegant pavilion gathered around Ning Yunzhi.

The reason is simple, it's just that the identity of being the true disciple of Baiyun Temple is so attractive.

Even the big families that are on good terms with the Zhong family in Taiyang have their doubts about Baiyun Temple.

In the past, Ning Yunzhi would either be stage-frightened or disdainful, but these experiences over the past decade have made her grow a lot.

In just a short time, everyone in the elegant pavilion was talking happily.

"Congratulations, elder sister!"

"Old lucky star, you are really blessed. I wish you a long life and happiness as vast as the East Sea!"

"I heard that the Master Ning from Baiyun Temple came to celebrate your birthday in person. You are so lucky~~~"

Everyone who was chatting in the elegant pavilion suddenly heard a commotion coming from the front yard.

After a few people used their spiritual sense to investigate, they all understood what was going on.

Zhong Liting glanced at everyone, and they all laughed and said, "The birthday star is out now, let's go out and pay our respects quickly, don't neglect the birthday star."

Zhong Liting looked at Ning Yunzhi again, and Ning Yunzhi smiled and said, "Today, I am here to celebrate Master's birthday. Let's go together quickly."

"Good good."

Everyone in the elegant pavilion quickly got up and rushed to the front yard.

Only then did they realize that the old lady was indeed dressed very festively, and some people who had seen the old lady not long ago were even more surprised.

Just looking at her complexion, the old lady is in much better health.

At her age, she can still recover from a stubborn disease. No wonder everyone present said that the old lady is so blessed!
Then, it was the birthday celebration session that everyone loved to see.

To make the event more lively, we even invited experts in folk art to perform music for everyone.

At this moment, everyone present enjoyed it extremely.

What’s even more interesting is that some of the Zhong family’s young grandchildren specially performed some “shows” on the old lady’s birthday.

of course.

These programs are mainly about some magic spells of immortal cultivators. They don’t require to be very good or very sophisticated, they just want to be lively and auspicious.

After the performance, the old birthday lady, Mrs. Li, rewarded her grandchildren with some small prizes in public, and the atmosphere was full of joy and happiness.

Later on, even Ning Yunzhi came on stage to perform a sword dance, which pushed the atmosphere to a climax.

The sword dance performed by Ning Yunzhi combined subtlety and elegance, and was indeed very pleasing to the eye.

Just when everyone thought the birthday party had reached its climax, they suddenly heard someone say, "Since everyone has performed a show, I will also perform a show to amuse the old lady."

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously looked towards a remote corner of the hall.

I saw a woman with an extremely outstanding appearance, just sitting there quietly, very inconspicuous.

but.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she immediately became the focus of everyone present.

This abnormality made masters such as Ning Yunzhi and Zhong Liting immediately feel that something was wrong.

The next moment, the woman gently stretched out her jade hand and pointed into the air, and a drop of water was formed.

It was just a drop of water, but it quickly turned into many very cute little animals.

Little squirrels, little monkeys, little cranes, little cats, little dogs, and even some very small ones that can even be called cute little fairies and fairy children.

Although it is made of water, it is extremely lifelike and even wears very delicate little clothes.

As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

The children especially liked it very much and couldn’t help laughing and clapping their hands.

Afterwards, everyone saw these cute little animals start to perform clever tricks, while the fairies and fairy children started to play music and flutes.

The tune of the music is somewhat unfamiliar to everyone, but just by listening to the tune one can feel that it is very festive.

It is indeed a song used to celebrate birthdays!
Afterwards, everyone vaguely heard a complete story from the performing water people.

That is the queen of the fairy tale kingdom in the forest. She was very happy to hear that Mrs. Li was celebrating her birthday, and she specially sent all kinds of small animals and fairies under her command to come and celebrate.

Then, everyone saw a small, very cute little squirrel, with a big water cup on its head, puffing its short legs and happily offering the spring water from the forest.

The little cranes, flapping their wings, carried baskets of flowers from the forest.

The puppies and kittens also behaved very well and brought various fruits.

Even the fairies who acted as the atmosphere group flapped their transparent little wings and specially delivered "longevity peaches" that were many times bigger than their bodies, looking as if they couldn't even carry them. No one knew the quality of the longevity peaches, but this performance was indeed very novel and full of childish fun.

The children in particular opened their eyes wide.

It seems that there really is a fairy tale kingdom in the forest, where there really is a forest queen living, and under her command are these cute little animal and fairy subordinates.

Especially the exaggeratedly large longevity peach, which made them drool.

Old lady Li Yili was indeed amused and couldn't help laughing.

Then, the little short-legged squirrel, with the big water cup on its head, finally clumsily arrived in front of the old lady.

The short-legged squirrel looked proud, and said with his head held high, "Happy birthday, happy birthday, grandma, have some water, grandma, have some water."

When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

Old Lady Li also laughed. "Okay, okay, I'll drink some water. I've celebrated so many birthdays, but I never thought I could drink the spring water sent by the little squirrel messenger from the fairy tale kingdom in the forest."

When everyone heard this, they all started laughing.

This way of celebrating birthday is so childlike, unique and special.

Li Yi picked up the water cup from the little squirrel's head and drank it down.

It doesn't have any taste at first, just ordinary water, but after the water goes down one's throat, amazing vitality instantly sweeps through the body.

Although Li Yi's cultivation level is not high, he is still a cultivator after all.

She was immediately shocked!
But just as she was about to say something, a voice suddenly rang in her ears.

[Although the spring water in the fairy tale kingdom tastes good, I can’t say too much!]
Li Yi was stunned.

Following the sound, she saw the somewhat unfamiliar woman who was wishing her a happy birthday in the corner.

The woman just smiled and nodded, then waved her hand, and many small animals appeared on the field.

Like the little squirrels just now, each of them held a cup of water on their head and brought spring water from the fairy tale kingdom in the forest to the children present.

Then, all the children present were captured and were extremely happy.

Seeing this scene, the adults present couldn't stop laughing.

Their own children are happy, and they are even happier than if they themselves had the opportunity.

Especially when their own children reluctantly gave half of the spring water from the fairy tale kingdom in the forest to them, the adults felt as sweet as if they had eaten honey.

In a short time, the whole courtyard was filled with laughter.

Soon, the fairy-tale birthday celebration episode came to an end.

What no one expected was that the woman who presented the Fairy Tale Kingdom program suddenly teased, "Old birthday boy, everyone has a prize after their performance, don't I have one?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Li Yi, but also many guests present were stunned.

This is really weird!
However, it was the children who took it for granted.

The story of a small fairy tale kingdom in the forest captured the hearts of many children and made them treat this sister as one of their own.

"Give me a prize."

"Give me a prize."

"Give me a prize."

Many children started to make a noise.

After a brief moment of daze, Li Yi suddenly laughed, "Yes, yes, yes, I am old and confused. I should give him a prize."

As Li Yi spoke, he took a fruit plate from the person next to him with a little panic.

Then, he grabbed some fruits and pastries and gave them to the mysterious woman as a prize.

The reason for the panic was that the spring water was indeed strange, very strange, and had too much vitality.

Li Yi was really worried. This "prize" was a price that she and even the entire Taoyuan Zhong family could not afford.

Unlike the children who were making a fuss, some monks with good eyesight noticed that Old Lady Li was panicking.

But what no one expected was that the woman took the fruit cake with both hands and said with a smile, "Thank you very much, thank you very much, I wish you good health and a long life, may you have this day every year."

Although Li Yi felt a little strange, he still smiled.

"Miss, if you like to eat, the Zhong family has plenty of fruit snacks even if they don't have anything else."

"Hehe, thank you very much, old lady!"

Li Yi found it incredible that she passed the test so easily, but she was also really happy and felt especially relaxed.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but even my brain has become much better, and many memories are flooding into my mind uncontrollably.

Many of them are related to his son Zhong Lixiao.
But thinking of these memories made her feel sad again.

At this moment, a sweet voice sounded, "Old lady, while people are here, why don't we share the birthday peaches?"

When Li Yi heard this, his thoughts were brought back to reality.

Li Yi then realized that this was her big day and she couldn't spoil everyone's fun.

Li Yi said quickly, "Yes, yes, it's time to share the birthday peaches!"

As Li Yi spoke, he distributed the birthday peaches in front of everyone.

At first, everyone was worried that there would not be enough to share, but as Li Yi cut more and more times, everyone was surprised to find that even though Li Yi had cut so many times, the number of longevity peaches had not decreased much.

this.
Everyone present was excited and looking forward to it!
Soon, everyone present tasted the longevity peach.

"So it's made of flour. It's so delicious. This is the first time I've eaten such a sweet and delicious birthday peach."

"Walnuts, almonds, peanuts, pine nuts. Haha, the fillings are all dried fruits from the forest. It really tastes like a fairy tale kingdom in the forest. I am so lucky!"

"A gift from the queen of the fairy tale kingdom in the forest. Haha, interesting~~~"

Everyone praised the food and enjoyed it very much.

Ning Yunzhi also took a sip and was quite surprised.

Can longevity peaches made from flour and dried fruits be so delicious?

Ning Yunzhi felt a little strange, but when she looked at the mysterious woman again, there was no trace of her in the yard.

Ning Yunzhi was shocked.

When did she leave?
Not only Ning Yunzhi, but other masters who had been paying close attention to the mysterious woman were also extremely surprised when they suddenly found that the woman left so quietly.

At this moment, how could they not know that they had truly met a master?

After confirming that the children were all fine, everyone looked at the birthday peach in front of Old Lady Li, and their faces changed.

Then, they shamelessly asked Old Lady Li for a few more birthday peaches.

Until all the peaches are finally distributed!

After eating a certain number of peaches, everyone realized that their spirits had indeed improved a lot after eating the longevity peaches.

It really has an excellent therapeutic effect!

This further deepened everyone's interest in this fairy tale kingdom in the forest.

Tonight's birthday banquet has become a legendary story.

As the news spread, the rumors became increasingly outrageous.

I don't know how the story of the fairy tale kingdom spread, but it became a story about a god from heaven coming down to earth to give peaches to old lady Li on her birthday.

The birthday peach is so big that all the people who come to celebrate the birthday cannot finish it!

But the truth is, Zhong Lixiao had already made the birthday peach very big while he was making it.

Then I used some tricks to create some space to make it look like just an ordinary, slightly larger longevity peach.

As for why longevity peaches are so delicious, they do have some extraordinary effects.

The core reason is that after Zhong Lixiao realized the lights of thousands of homes, he took some happy fragrance from the stove.

In essence, it is pure divine power of incense!
Finally, the water used to knead the dough comes from Qianqiu Pond, which is rich in immortal energy.

Looking at the bustling manor of Qianqiutan from afar, and then looking at the plate of fruit snacks beside him, Zhong Lixiao immediately ate happily.

Although I cannot openly celebrate my mother's birthday now, it feels really good to be able to give her the nectar that can prolong her life in this way.

It’s a pity that this kind of happy and warm life can’t last too long.

When he thought of the fact that there was a "King" in secret who was deliberately targeting "Lord Han", Zhong Lixiao couldn't help feeling a little irritated at the same time as he was alert.

For the safety of his mother, brother, and even the entire Taiyang Zhong family, it would be best for him to keep his distance from the family.

Otherwise, the family may become his weak point!

Hey!
Thinking of this, Zhong Lixiao couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

At this moment, Zhong Lixiao felt a mouse made of water trotting onto his shoulder and acting cute in front of his cheek.

Zhong Lixiao was immediately amused!
Water magic, at this level, is really fun.
