Chapter 979: Alive (1)
The tea is served.
Very fragrant.
It's not the kind of smell where the Dao rhyme is soaring into the sky and spiritual energy is pervasive, and every pore in the body is spewing out the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, constantly increasing one's cultivation, but it's like the smell of having taken a tonic pill.
It's the smell of everyday life, the ordinary, plain, timeless and elegant aroma that tea should have.
Well, maybe the person who made the tea didn't control the heat well, so there was a slight burnt smell mixed in with the tea aroma... Lu Yi took a sip and suddenly remembered the rice crust cooked in the big iron pot. The heat was too high, so the rice crust had a slightly burnt smell.
For Lu Yi today, this ordinary tea and ordinary spring water have no nourishing effect.
But after taking a sip of tea, his stomach moved faster. Lu Yi's smoke rings turned red for no apparent reason, and he seemed to see a soft figure shrouded in the yellow light coming in from the window at dusk from the similar aroma of burnt rice crust.
"Tea, very good." Lu Yi held the teacup and thanked the young monk who served him tea.
The girl in white smiled even more brightly. It was a genuine smile, not a reserved, artificial one. Every muscle, every nerve, even every pore was perfectly controlled by divine thoughts and magical power to disguise the smile. She was truly and happily smiling.
"The fact that you can eat these melon cakes and drink this tea proves that you have at least met our first-level screening criteria." The girl held the tea and took a sip with relish, then sighed heavily: "My craftsmanship is still not good enough. It seems that I am not a top genius. I don't need magic power, soul, or any special means. I have been learning to stir-fry tea for several years, but the heat is always too high."
Lu Yi glanced at her and said, "Did you stir-fry this tea? Well, your skills aren't that great, but the tea is still pretty good. Good mountains, good water, good effort, and good sweat will naturally produce good tea. As long as the tea leaves themselves are not bad, it doesn't matter if your tea-frying skills are a little bit worse."
The girl smiled and narrowed her eyes, nodding seriously: "That's the truth. I told them, but none of them listened, so I beat them up. They didn't even look at the soup they cooked, the dishes they fried, and the rice they steamed. What do they taste like?"
Lu Yi looked at the delighted girl and repeated the question again: "So, what Did you bring me here just to chat with me?"
"May I ask your name and origin?"
"Excuse me, who are you?"
"Natives? Just want to live?" Lu Yi grinned, repeated the girl's reply, and sighed: "What is a native? What is living? Are you all miserable people who can't survive? How can this be absurd!"
Lu Yu didn’t quite understand the meaning of the term “indigenous”.
But alive!
hehe!
Lu Yu was not sure about the girl's cultivation level. After all, she was a grown-up girl, and it would be rude for Lu Yu to use his magical powers to spy on her from head to toe. She did not intentionally reveal her aura, so Lu Yu could not judge what level she had reached.
However, she is obviously one of the "leaders" mentioned by King Qiu Gui, so she must be an emperor-level existence.
Emperor!
He is already the supreme existence in this spatial dimension.
If it weren't for the fact that King Qiu Gui's method of condensing the Emperor's Seal Dao Fruit was a bit dirty and shameful, and he had achieved it by poaching his own father... With his background and strength, he could have lived a very carefree and happy life.
King Qiu Gui is like this, so this girl and those "leaders" with similar status as her are just trying to survive?
Unbelievable.
The girl held the teacup in both hands, took a sip, and looked out at the vast world.
White clouds are floating and huge cranes are flying.
"My name is Min Sanqi. Min from the Great Min Emperor." The girl smiled, and the white-gold flames beneath her skin broke through her skin, rising up and condensing into a pair of gorgeous white-gold flame wings behind her. The huge wings fluttered gently, and the girl's fair skin was suddenly covered with strands of complex and gorgeous white-gold patterns like rose branches. The whole person's aura suddenly changed, from being gentle and gentle just now to becoming extremely high-handed, majestic and murderous.
Lu Yi's pupils narrowed slightly.
She, is this a member of the Holy Spirit clan?
Moreover, Ming Sanqi? Using the character Ming in Emperor Taiming's name as a surname? Lu Yi was surprised and asked, "You are the daughter of Emperor Taiming?"
But this name is not a serious name.
Lu Yi thought of Ling Yu, who was sent to the lower world by Emperor Taiyi to investigate the death of Emperor Taiyi's son in the ancient city of Loulan... She was Emperor Taiyi's trusted confidant and confidant. Although her name did not seem very good to Lu Yi, at least it sounded like a decent name.
And the blind are 37.
This is more like a number, right?
Lu Yi said nothing, just looked at Mi Sanqi.
Mi Sanqi folded the huge flaming wings behind him, restrained his breath, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for Lu Yi.
"I am the daughter of Emperor Taimo." Mo Sanqi said slowly.
She is the daughter of Emperor Taimi.
"Simply speaking from the perspective of bloodline, she is the daughter of Emperor Taimu." These are the original words of Mu Sanqi.
In terms of blood, Emperor Taimu is her father. But there are countless beauties in Emperor Taimu's harem, and they come from all kinds of strange and bizarre intelligent races. Their appearances are all kinds of strange, human-like, non-human, even silicon-based, pure energy... demons, ghosts, elves, weird... There are even statues with spiritual intelligence, rocks and quagmires with some spirituality...
Everything can be a harem.
Emperor Taimu also mastered many extraordinary methods of making peace.
Or like ordinary mortals, men and women pair up to have children. Or like some ghosts, they exchange breath and conceive a mysterious fetus... or even communicate with a wisp of divine thoughts to breed a congenital divine fetus in the soul... All kinds of strange and bizarre ways have created the various sons and daughters of Emperor Taimi.
Mi Sanqi’s mother...should be a humanoid race.
At least she had memories of being in the womb, remembering how she felt in the womb, and all the sensations she had in the womb. She clearly understood that she was born after her mother had been pregnant for a hundred years.
But Mi Sanqi had never seen his mother.
As soon as she was born, she was taken away by people around Emperor Tai'e and sent to the Tai'e Divine Pool to purify and refine her blood, and to undergo postnatal processing and recasting of her body. Extraordinary power was instilled in her since she was a child, allowing her to integrate the rhyme of Tao and enhance her combat effectiveness.
In the process, Meng Sanqi's mother offended the real mistress of Emperor Taimeng's harem, Emperor Taimeng's real first wife, the woman who had gone through great hardships with him, from an unknown person in the Supreme Taichu Heaven, stepping on bloody storms and countless corpses, and finally standing on the pinnacle throne of heaven and earth.
So, Sanqi's mother died silently and for no reason.
Mi Sanqi's natural talent is very good, and her talent is in line with the "casting" method that Emperor Taimi used on his own sons and daughters.
Therefore, at a young age, she has demonstrated many extraordinary abilities, and her ranking among the sons and daughters of Emperor Taimi has continued to rise.
Meng Sanqi was the final 'name' she had when she defected from Tai Mengtian and faked her death to escape from Tai Mengtian.
"You know, among all his children, those with the prefix '瞐' are already of a very high rank... I have a good chance of being able to enter the ranks of those with the prefix '太'. Once I enter the ranks of those with the prefix '太', I won't have to use the name '三七' anymore. I can have a proper name, like a real 'living person'."
Mi Sanqi smiled, shrugged and spread his hands.
"But I still escaped." Ming Sanqi said dimly, " The details , with fellow Daoist Lu Yi's experience, should not be difficult to understand... It's nothing more than a story about a foolish woman who wanted to take revenge on an evil woman, but ended up being unable to do so, and narrowly escaped death several times, and was forced to defect."
"Such stories happen all the time in the secular world, in all realms, in the royal families, the landlords and the common people. These things are like wisps of dust in the world, insignificant."
Mi Sanqi chuckled and said, "But for those of us who are in the middle of it, a speck of dust is like a mountain. Once it falls, we will be crushed to pieces."
Lu Yi looked at Li Sanqi and said, "So, you joined forces to... survive your father's pursuit? To live? Uh, no, no, I think you and the people behind you have great visions and great methods. You are not such narrow-minded people... What you did is not just for this little thing, right?"
Meng Sanqi smiled brightly: "Very good, it seems that we have chosen the right person again. Fellow Daoist Lu Yi is right, the focus of the matter is not on my revenge on the first wife of Emperor Tai Meng, the evil woman who killed my biological mother... Of course, at the beginning of the matter, I defected from Empress Tai Meng, and in the first few years, I did live for this goal."
"But later, I gradually realized that compared with the real problems we were facing, the life or death of that evil woman was insignificant. We had more important and valuable things to do."
Lu Yi blinked and looked at Mi Sanqi.
Something more important?
Will it be saving the world?
Lu Yi thought about what he had said to Sanqi before.
The other party "kidnapped" him from Yuncha Ridge, sent him to a brothel in the secular world, made him meet King Qiu Gui, and brought him into this small world left by the ancient Buddha.
Along the way, many details have been carefully planned and arranged.
For example, when Lu Yi woke up, he found himself in a secular brothel... The reactions of those high-ranking people and Lu Yi were naturally very different. Just this step can filter out many, many, many details.
Before meeting Lu Sanqi, perhaps, Lu Yi had been thoroughly investigated by them.
After Lu Yi woke up, when he entered here and met Meng Sanqi, his every move and every word might have been monitored and analyzed by Meng Sanqi and her companions behind her.
So, among the things that Sanqi said before...
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, and slowly said: "Emperor Taimu had countless partners... and gave birth to countless sons and daughters... Moreover, from the moment they were born, they were specially...cultivated."
Lu Yi said softly: "This technique is extraordinary...almost, inhuman!"
Lu Yi looked at Mi Sanqi with sharp eyes.
"Bang", a very heavy crash sounded, and the whole Lingshan Mountain shook slightly. A man who was eight feet and one foot tall, golden all over as if cast from copper, with a majestic, scorching aura, like the sun, fell from the sky and landed heavily outside the pavilion where Lu Yi was.
"Is this guy so smart?" The burly man muttered in a muffled voice: "Tsk, pretty boy, so smart!"
