King of Black Mist

"We sneaked to the island, what should we do if Zheng Chenggong was assassinated by other players?" Li Qianxia asked.

Li Changzhou looked at Yaochi: "Are you staying?"

"My mission is not Zheng Chenggong."

"This didn't even reveal your mission." Li Changzhou felt quite regretful.

"You are too tender, but I like tender ones." Yaochi said with a smile.

She added: "When I act in the dungeon, I will definitely collect enough intelligence and I will never be reckless. You guys don't collect intelligence and are too kind, so you don't do things in an orderly manner. Just take it one step at a time."

"There's nothing wrong with it," Li Changzhou said, "This is called adapting to circumstances, tailoring things to suit circumstances, having an idea, and adapting to the circumstances."

"I see that you are quite quick-witted and very capable of making excuses." Yaochi complimented him mockingly.

"We have few people and there is nothing we can do." Unlike Li Changzhou, Yang Qinglan admitted her mistakes frankly.

"Like my brother, I think it's okay." Li Qianxia said, "As long as the three of us are together, it's totally fine to take one step at a time!"

"What about this time? What to do next?" Yaochi said with a smile on his face, "Let's make an agreement first. If you leave, I won't stay on the ship as a living target."

There are as many skills as you need, and even Yaochi, who has S-level instincts, dare not say that he can deal with all plots.

"Just carry out long-range bombing on Treasure Island." Yaochi said.

Li Qianxia frowned: "What about the people on the island?"

Yaochi looked at her and smiled meaningfully: "You must have suffered a loss because of protecting the ancients, and even put your life in danger."

"." Li Qianxia thought of the United States in 1880.

"I'm not saying that it's not good to do this." Yaochi's tone became gentle and kind, "These people are ancients after all, and it doesn't matter whether they die or not. Of course we should have a bottom line as human beings, and we can't treat their lives as grass, but it matters For our own safety, even when it comes to life and death, we must take action when necessary."

".I understand." Li Qianxia nodded.

She also didn't want to let her brother go through the eighteen levels of hell for the sake of the people on the island. Not to mention that this was history, even if it was a real person in the "now", she was not willing.

After convincing Li Qianxia, ​​Yaochi looked at Li Changzhou and tilted his head - what should I say?

Li Changzhou had nothing against bombing, just like when he planned to use ordinary people for vampire experiments in 1880.

But he didn't plan to do it. At that time, Bi thought the vampire experiment was too cruel, so he didn't do it.

What's more, this is something his sister doesn't want him to do.

A brother will not do anything to make his sister unhappy.

This is irrational and not conducive to survival, but for him, some things take priority over sanity and survival.

Li Changzhou looked at Yang Qinglan: "What do you think?"

Yang Qinglan still didn't understand him well, so she said, "Let's take a step and see."

If it wasn't enough, she added: "When there is really no other way, just do as Yaochi said."

"Okay! That's it!"

"So we discussed over and over again. What exactly did we discuss?" Yaochi had nothing to say to these three people. If they were her subordinates, their wages would have been deducted long ago.

"Who said they were discussing it?" Li Changzhou laughed and clapped his hands on his knees, "Can't we catch up with friends we haven't seen for a long time?"

"Hmm -" Yaochi pretended to think for a moment and smiled, "That's okay."

I won't deduct his salary. The person in power always needs a few people around him who can talk nicely, otherwise what's the point of being high and powerful.

The four of them did not talk about the attack on the treasure island, but chatted about their recent experiences.

"I heard that your home was bombed?" Yaochi was really smiling this time.

"That's it for the old memories."

How could anyone reminisce about the past like this!

The four of them returned to the practice of contemplation and shared their experiences with each other.

For Yaochi, Li Changzhou and the others have three S+ level concepts, which are undoubtedly a treasure trove of experience.

For Li Changzhou and the others, Yaochi itself also has an S+ level visualization method, and they are well-informed. Before obtaining the [West Queen Mother], they had at least dozens of B-level or A-level visualization methods, which was also a treasure trove of experience.

The two collections were combined and both felt that their understanding of the concept of contemplation was further deepened.

"Sister Yaochi, it is recorded in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" that [Queen Mother of the West] is as powerful as the Five Disableds. What is it specifically?" Li Qianxia asked.

Yaochi spread his hands, and a ball of cyan light emerged out of thin air, sometimes turning into a snake-like silk cloth, sometimes turning into a living blue bird, sometimes turning into a long sword, and sometimes turning into a feather coat. It is ever-changing.

"This is the 'power of heaven'." Yaochi said, "It has the power to observe and control the energy of disasters."

"Disaster energy?" Li Changzhou was curious.

"Probably, if you make a person unlucky, you will be unlucky, and if you make a person lucky, you will be blessed."

"Then don't you give us some blessing?"

"I gave it to you, you don't want it yourself." Yaochi smiled intoxicatingly, as if placing his hand on the tip of Li Changzhou's nose.

Li Changzhou picked his ear with the little finger of his right hand.

"I'm getting closer and closer to the realm of immortality, and all the earwax is gone." He flicked his fingers.

"Don't play randomly." Yang Qinglan gathered up the skirt of her skirt, looking like she didn't believe he didn't have earwax.

"The level of changing the topic is a bit poor." Yaochi put away the 'Tian Zhi Li' and added, "As for the 'Five Disabilities', it is a set of skills, or magical powers."

"If you had used it just now, I would be no match for you." Li Changzhou sighed.

"Yeah." Yaochi admitted shamelessly.

He didn't ask what the specific magical power was. The two parties had some friendship, but it hadn't reached the level of confession.

It was already dusk, and the four of them walked out of the cabin to get some fresh air. Looking far into the distance, they could already see the coastline of Treasure Island.

Just at this time, Zheng Chenggong ordered: "Retract the sails and drop the anchor!"

The flagman immediately hoisted the flag on the main mast.

For 300 warships, the wrenches at the bow and stern released the iron chains at the same time, and the two large iron anchors at the front and rear immediately broke the sea surface with a "clatter".

The big sails on the three masts were lowered smoothly.

The four of them said nothing, looking at the scene in front of them. These are all insights, but they may not necessarily increase their "ability".

Just like the advertising line, out of a 100 million advertisement, only 50 million will be effective, but they don't know which 50 million will be effective, so they must invest 100 million. They don't know what insights can increase "ability", so they have to pay attention to everything.

The sky is getting dark, and the stars in the night sky have never been brighter.

The Milky Way, which can only be seen in photos, slowly rotates overhead.

"So beautiful." Li Qianxia murmured.

I had never seen such a clear and transparent night even when I was a child in the countryside.

Suddenly, the four of them looked away at the same time.

Ahead, on the dark sea, a huge bubble bulged on the sea surface, reminding people of the scene when the group appeared during the day.

Wow!

A huge ship, like a fortress, stands in front of 300 sailing ships.

It's unclear how big this ship is, but compared with it, Zheng Chenggong's 300 sailboats are pitifully small, like 300 grains of rice, facing a keyboard.

There were screams of terror all around.

"It's Mazu! Mazu is angry!" A soldier who grew up by the sea knelt down on the deck and kowtowed.

Mazu is a folk belief spread in coastal areas.

Also known as Tianfei, Tianhou, Heavenly Madonna, Mother, etc., she is a deity commonly believed in by boatmen, sailors, travelers, merchants and fishermen.

People in coastal areas, when sailing on the sea, must first worship Mazu before the ship sets sail, pray for good wind and safety, and set up a Mazu shrine on the ship to worship.

In the 1980s, the United Nations awarded Mazu the title of "Goddess of Peace". She is the country's first religious world heritage and the common spiritual wealth of all mankind.

"Get up!" Zheng Chenggong shouted angrily, "Look clearly, that's Mazu's boat!"

What comes into view is a frightening, monster-like vessel, looming like a ghost in the darkness.

The giant ship seemed to be resting in the dark night sky, surrounded by a terrifying silence, and there were vicious scars on its body.

There was a fishy red substance on the hull, like blood.

"That's the red muddy water in the highest sedimentary layer at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. It's the sediment of decayed marine life. Someone fished this ship out of the Atlantic Ocean!" Yang Qinglan's face didn't look good either.

It's not because of the size of the hull.

Countless white ghosts were whimpering and wailing inside the ship's doors and windows, seeming to be struggling to break out.

A strange atmosphere enveloped this huge wheel that must have been famous for a while.

"When Zheng He went to the Western Ocean, the 'treasure ship' was only over 100 meters long and over 50 meters wide. This ship is at least 300 meters long and cannot be any other ship in history." Yaochi has also done a lot of homework.

"The incarnation of Mazu and the Immortal Penglai are by my side. Nothing is impossible in the world." Li Changzhou glanced at the ship but did not find the player.

Weird as it was, with the strength of a single round, he didn't take this ship seriously.

Zheng Chenggong calmed down the soldier's mood and walked quickly.

"Ask the Immortal Master to take action!" he said anxiously, cupping his fists.

Facing such a weird scene, he was calm and fearless in front of the soldiers, but he was also frightened in his heart.

Not to mention those white ghosts, as long as the huge hull in front of him collides, all 300 of his sailboats will sink here.

The waves caused by the ghost ship surfacing made the warship bump and rock, just like Zheng Chenggong's current mood.

"It doesn't matter." Li Changzhou waved his hand, his eyes still looking for the player.

"Perhaps we are not fellow travelers." Yaochi suddenly said, "As we go deeper and deeper, the demons and ghosts will also revive."

What she means is that this is not a player, but that history has returned to an era when there may be monsters and ghosts, and ghost ships are something that existed in this time period.

But why did you stop Zheng Chenggong?

In history, did Zheng Chenggong encounter this ghost ship? If so, how did you break through?

At this moment, a stream of light suddenly flew across the sky.

"Sighing over the past and present, things have changed and people have changed. In the world, only the country is eternal."

"Rain hood."

"No one in the world knows that I can pass through the air with my sword several times."

As soon as he finished speaking, the stream of light had already reached the sky above the ghost ship, and the sword energy as huge as a mountain, with brilliant light, slashed furiously in the air.

The ghost ship demons soared into the sky, and countless white ghosts swarmed out of their nests, wailing and rushing towards the sword energy.

The huge rumbling sound and the sky-shaking gas explosion drew concentric circles in the night sky, and the air in all directions was torn apart.

Yaochi spread his hands, and the force of the sky turned into a huge curtain. The gauze hanging between the sea and the sky, the thin almost transparent green gauze, blocked all the aftermath.

"He recited poems when he came out. This guy is so good at pretending and acting cool!" Li Qianxia tugged on Li Changzhou's sleeve, "Brother, you lose!"

"I'm not as good as him." Li Changzhou sighed.

"You are the most handsome." Yang Qinglan smiled.

"Haha!" Li Changzhou laughed and wanted to hug her waist and kiss her hard on the face.

The sword light disappeared, the ghost ship disappeared without a trace, and Yaochi put away the power of the sky.

The fluid passed by and a Taoist priest landed on the deck.

"What a baby!" The Taoist priest has a beard and is in his forties. He is handsome and his skin is too good to be true.

"Thank you." Yaochi smiled.

The Taoist priest's eyes flickered and he looked at her twice more, unable to help but feel good about her.

He turned his head and looked around the deck, focusing on Zheng Chenggong who was wearing a python robe.

"But Mr. Guo?"

"Yes, thank you so much for the immortal master's help in succumbing to the demon." Zheng Chenggong clasped his fists.

"I chased this ghost ship from the sea to here. When I saw the army, I wanted to absorb the blood and soul to replenish my vitality. It was my duty."

Chasing ghost ships?

Zheng Chenggong was even more respectful: "May I ask where the immortal master comes from? Is he also an immortal from Penglai Immortal Island?"

"Penglai Immortal Island?"

"This is the Dharma King of the East China Sea from Penglai Immortal Island." Zheng Chenggong introduced Li Changzhou to him.

"Dharma King of the East China Sea? Penglai Immortal Island? Cheating!" The Taoist priest sneered, unsheathed his fairy sword, and struck Li Changzhou straight.

Bang!

The Taoist priest turned into blood mist and splashed out in the evening wind.

Li Changzhou looked at Yang Qinglan, Li Qianxia, ​​and Yaochi, and asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

"I just want to stop him." Yang Qinglan was also a little confused and put away the brilliant light that represented "hallucinations" and "auditory hallucinations."

"Brother, he wants to beat you, I just want to surround Wei and save Zhao." Li Qianxia was standing beside the Taoist priest at some point.

"Don't look at me," Yaochi closed her palms with a calm expression, "I am the majestic Fairy Penglai, the reincarnation of the Queen Mother of the West, and it is impossible for me to kill anyone."

Zheng Chenggong's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help being frightened when he emerged from the sea of ​​blood - the living Taoist priest just now was right in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into blood mist and disappeared!

"Master Immortal, this-" He looked at Li Changzhou.

"It doesn't matter." Li Changzhou waved his hand.

Isn’t this a no-brainer?

The Taoist died, and the immortal sword went to nowhere. Nothing was left, only a small bag.

"An opportunity to learn more is gone." Li Changzhou said.

"I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!" Li Qianxia clasped her hands together and closed her eyes tightly, "But you killed my brother first. This was self-defense. I hope you can understand that what I did was absolutely legal!"

Zheng Chenggong could tell that these immortal masters were not good people, or that they were indifferent to (other people's) life and death.

However, he traveled all over the country and fought countless battles. Although it was for the Ming Dynasty, he couldn't say that he didn't kill anyone by mistake, and he didn't take it to heart.

What's more, it was the other party who made the first move without any hesitation.

"Master Immortal, I am planning to land on the island from the Luermen Waterway tomorrow at Yin time." This is what he cares about most, regaining the treasure island!

For this purpose, he is willing to do whatever it takes.

"Prince Zheng decides on the matter of war."

Zheng Chenggong saluted and went to check the condition of the warship.

Li Changzhou reached out and grabbed the Taoist priest's small bag into his hand.

Input mana into the bag, and a space the size of a car trunk appeared, with books, medicinal materials, clothes, and gold and silver.

"Storage bag? It's a good thing. Do you want it?" Li Changzhou asked the three of them.

"I killed the man." Yaochi took the bag away from him.

".Aren't you the Penglai Fairy, the reincarnation of the Queen Mother of the West, and you don't kill people?"

"I've been reincarnated, why do I care about my past life? I only believe in this life. "Nine Heavens of Sword Control", elixirs, and medicinal materials." Yaochi said, already starting to tap the loot.

"Nine Heavens of Sword Control" is a practice method that divides the realm of practice into: cultivating the body, refining the essence, transforming the qi, uniting the spirit, returning the void, and the golden elixir.

"Nurture the body and refine essence, accumulate essence and turn into Qi, refine Qi to combine with the spirit, refine the spirit to return to the void, and the golden elixir will be completed." Yang Qinglan's voice was like the collision of pearls, crisp and sweet, "This is the "Golden elixir summary·Shanghai medicine chapter" "Records on."

"Golden elixir is the human immortal." Yaochi said, "One stage in the value game is 'cultivation'. The higher the physical quality, the stronger the essence produced. This "Sword Controlling Nine Heavens" is very ordinary and can only reach two levels. Full value."

"So, refining essence, transforming qi, combining spirit, returning to emptiness, and golden elixir correspond to the five breakthroughs of the visualization method?"

"Um."

The visualization method recorded in "Sword Control Nine Heavens" is pretty good. It can break through three times, which is equivalent to A level. If you practice it to the highest level, you can reach the union of gods.

"This." Yaochi handed over the elixir recipe, "See if you can make it."

"Jade Pill", effect: one pill will last for twenty years.

The ancients believed that jade could be worn everywhere to prevent aging. Even after some nobles died, they used jade pieces to make "golden jade clothes" to prevent corrosion, such as Liu Sheng, King Jing of the Western Han Dynasty.

This elixir is named ‘Jade’, and jade is also used in the ingredients. I don’t know if it has anything to do with it.

Or maybe it is simply a beautiful meaning: I hope that people can be like jade, and remain radiant after years.

"High-quality jade (thousand catties), black sesame seeds (hundred catties), pork loins (three hundred strips), longan meat (half a tree), Renzhongbai (three qian), coix seed (eight taels), and Polygonatum japonica (one tael). "

"The jade is refined into a liquid in an alchemy furnace, and the impurities are removed to extract the essence. A thousand kilograms of high-grade jade can yield ten taels of jade liquid."

"Refining black sesame seeds, removing impurities and extracting the essence, you can get a hundred pounds of black sesame seeds."

"."

"Not for use by children"

This is Danfang.

The medicinal materials are weird, and it’s hard to imagine who developed them, just like it’s hard to imagine who was the first to eat hairy eggs and Houttuynia cordata.

It doesn't seem difficult to follow the steps, but Li Changzhou, who has tried several elixirs and failed all the time, knows that this is not something that can be accomplished by just following the instructions.

Refining alchemy is not cooking. If you want to combine the medicinal properties, you must have extremely high affinity with medicinal materials and control of flames.

The medicinal materials are changing every moment in the flames, and the situation faced every time when making alchemy is different in every detail.

"Little Jade Cauldron", as a noble S-level alchemy furnace, can only guarantee the 100% success of fifty basic elixirs. Compared with the vast number of elixir recipes, the number fifty is not worth mentioning.

"I'll give it a try." Yang Qinglan took over the recipe.

"I provide the materials, and I only need one-third of it after making it." Yaochi said.

Yang Qinglan nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

"Brother," Li Qianxia leaned over and breathed into Li Changzhou's ear, "You can't play with Qinglan, a 30-year-old mature woman."

Before Li Changzhou could say anything, she yelled again: "Wait a minute! It won't affect the development of my breasts, right?!"

"Do you think you are only twelve years old?" Li Changzhou pinched his ear where he was yelled at at close range, "You are twenty years old, and your chest will always be a B all your life."

"B What's wrong! Did you drink your milk?!"

"Drink."

"...Damn it, Qian Xia, I can't refute you."
