Longevity and Immortal Journey: Raising Demons, Raising Plants and Seeking Immortals

Chapter 455

Upper river.

The merchants were in no mood to watch a group of untouchables risking their lives to fish for gold and silver leaves.

now.

Their minds were all focused on becoming immortal masters and obtaining the elixir that could prolong their lives for a hundred years.

Driven by the merchants, the stewards and servants drove to the mansion to get the rare treasures collected, trying to impress the immortal master and grant them the opportunity to become immortals.

Wait for the butler to leave.

Their eyes fell on Li Chengan and his son in the pavilion not far away, with complicated expressions.

“It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.”

"As a descendant of an immortal master, he has to open a restaurant. How tragic it is."

"He has a sharp weapon in his heart but he doesn't use it. Shopkeeper Li is a kind man."

"Does his family have any magic?"

"."

The merchants had different thoughts. When they saw the city lord's daughter walking towards Li Cheng'an's pavilion, they seemed to think of something, their eyes lit up, and their expressions showed expectation.

"These guys."

When City Lord Gu saw this scene, his eyes darkened.

In the pavilion.

Li Changfu paced back and forth, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Li Chengan watched his carriage speed away, feeling a little relieved. He glanced at him and said unhappily, "Just say what you want to say. Who are you showing off to?"

Li Changfu glanced at the insect lying on the table, took a deep breath, and whispered, "Dad, are our family really descendants of the Immortal Master?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, his father slapped him in the face.

Snapped.
Li Chengan slapped his forehead hard and said angrily, "What descendant of the immortal master? This is the spiritual insect that your eldest brother gave to Dad for protection."

"Big brother?"

Li Changfu was stunned and asked in surprise: "I still have a big brother?"

"Ah."

Li Chengan nodded, and out of the corner of his eye he saw a pretty girl walking towards him. He shook his head slightly, "Deal with her first."

Li Changfu suppressed his doubts and turned to look.

Outside the pavilion.

Gu Chengyue forced a smile on her face and bowed, "Chengyue greets Old Master Li, Uncle Li."

"The weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken"

His arrogant character was well-known in Changxi City. Now he was so polite, Li Chengan knew that it must be something bad, so he didn't bother to pay attention and simply closed his eyes and concentrated.

Li Changfu walked to the edge of the pavilion, bowed and said with a smile: "Miss Gu, you are too polite. What's the matter?"

Gu Chengyue glanced at Li Chengan, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, and a surge of anger surged in her heart. However, when she saw the hideous insect lying on the table, her anger immediately dissipated. She forced a smile and said, "Uncle Li, you are too polite. Just call me Chengyue."

Li Changfu still smiled and looked at her without saying anything.

See this.

Gu Chengyue put away the hypocritical courtesy on his face and said bluntly: "A deputy city lord position, ten prosperous shops, and a thousand acres of top-quality farmland. I only ask for a copy of your family's inheritance method."

"I wonder if Old Master Li is willing to trade?"

"hiss"

Hearing this, Li Changfu couldn't help but gasp. Such a large family fortune was enough to make his family one of the most powerful families in Changxi City.

"I'm sorry to disappoint Miss Gu."

Li Chengan opened his eyes and shook his head, saying, "My family doesn't have any inheritance method. If we had, we wouldn't have fallen to this point."

"Really not..."

Gu Chengyue didn't believe it in her heart, and frowned, saying: "Grandpa Li, please think about it again. Even if not for yourself, you should consider it for your children and grandchildren." Then she looked at Li Changfu deeply, turned around and left quickly.

Wait until she leaves.

Li Changfu looked around, turned back to the pavilion, sat down on a chair, and said with a sad face: "It's not just the city lord who misses our family."

Li Chengan ignored him, turned his head to look at the city in the distance, and murmured: "It's time to get there."

"What's due?"

Li Changfu asked in confusion.

Li Chengan retracted his gaze and whispered, "Call your eldest brother to come and save the lives of our family." He looked up and around and sighed, "I just don't know if it will be too late."

Without waiting for Li Changfu to ask, he began to tell the story bit by bit.

"Your eldest brother was born to your eldest mother. His name is Li Changsheng. He has been extremely intelligent since he was young. Fortune tellers say that he is an immortal who has come to earth. When he came of age..."

As he was telling the story.

In Changxi City, there is a three-courtyard house in the east of the city.

A middle-aged man dressed as a butler hurried to the backyard.

The maid cleaning the courtyard saw him and bowed, "Butler Liu."

Butler Liu slowed down his pace, calmed his breath, and said, "Go and tell the old lady that I have something to ask you."

The maid looked at him in confusion, but without asking any questions, she quickly walked into the house.

Not long after.

The maid walked out the door again and waved to him.

Butler Liu walked into the house.

Sitting at the top was a white-haired woman in plain clothes, holding a rosary. Beside her stood two cute girls, one big and one small, who looked at him puzzledly.

Butler Liu bowed respectfully and said, "I greet the old lady."

Madam Li asked in confusion, "Didn't you go to the fishing festival with the master?"

"This"

Butler Liu was about to explain, but then he remembered the old master's instructions and hurriedly said, "Madam, it was the old master who asked me to come back."

"The old man told you to smash the jade pendant you carry with you, and you must do it quickly."

"what"

Standing next to Madam Li, the girl who looked no more than eleven or twelve years old asked in amazement, "Why did Grandpa ask Grandma to break the jade pendant?"

The slightly older girl also looked confused.

After hearing this, Madam Li's expression changed slightly, and she took out an intricately carved jade pendant with a soft and smooth sheen from her sleeve pocket. It was obvious at first glance that it was worth a fortune.

Amid the girl's screams, he fell to the ground.

clang.
But what surprised them was that the jade pendant fell heavily on the stone slab, but it bounced a few times without any damage. The young girl ran forward, squatted down, and reached out to pick it up.

The jade pendant suddenly emitted a faint golden light.

The girl was startled and quickly got up and ran to her grandmother, staring at it with wide eyes.

"This"

Madam Li, the older girl, Butler Liu, and the servants all looked shocked.

What they don't know is.

A grand thought swept across in all directions with Li Mansion as the center.

Scenes in the city, pedestrians.

There was also the second-grade intermediate blood weapon that the thin old man asked City Lord Gu to feed the prisoners with, which appeared in his mind one by one.

“Not in the city.”

Li House.

Just when everyone didn't know what to do, the jade pendant suddenly turned into a stream of light and escaped from the room and disappeared.

at the same time.

A thin protective shield that was invisible to the naked eye rose quietly, covering the entire Li Mansion.

City Lord's Mansion.

A cell deep in the dungeon.

In the small room, there was only an incense table with smoke curling around it. What was enshrined on it was not a Buddha or a deity, but a black and reddish sword with a ghost head.

suddenly.

The smoke that hung in the room was motionless.

The ghost-head sword and the skull eye sockets on the hilt suddenly lit up with two scarlet blood lights.

Sobbing and roaring suddenly began.

The blood seemed to spurt out like a sticky liquid, faintly revealing a series of twisted and hideous faces, and the roars became even more miserable.

next moment.

The sticky blood light condensed into a sharp blade light and suddenly chopped towards the wall.

However, when the knife light fell on the wall, it was like a drop in the ocean. Not only could it not split the wall, it couldn't even cause the slightest ripple.

"Burn!"

An indifferent voice suddenly sounded.

The room suddenly burst into flames. The flames seemed to have no temperature and did not damage any of the grass or trees. However, when the flames fell on the sticky blood, it was like sparks splashing into an oil pan, and the flames blazed fiercely.

woohoo
The ghost-head sword let out a series of shrill roars, and slashed left and right, with sharp blade lights slashing at the walls around it, but to no avail.

As the flames grew stronger.

The bloody light on the skull-shaped handle of the ghost-head sword gradually dimmed, and the bright white blade gradually became mottled with rust.

There were strange phenomena and terrifying noises in the house.

But in the cells not far away, the prisoners didn't notice anything at all. Some were sleeping, some were in a daze, and some were shouting out their injustice.

I don’t know how long it’s been.

The flames in the house died down, and the ghost-head sword disappeared along with it. Only the incense table and the sword rack remained.

At this time.

A flattering voice entered the cell, and the wailing and crying for injustice stopped abruptly.

"Sir, you are a wealthy man, how can you come to this filthy place?"

With the sound of footsteps.

A man with a face full of flesh and dressed in prison uniform led a well-dressed and arrogant young man into the dungeon.

Soon the two came to a cell that was tightly sealed with an iron door.

The prison boss took out the key and unlocked the chain. With a teeth-grinding creaking sound, the iron gate opened wide.

Gu Chengfeng couldn't hide his excitement and stepped into the room. But when he saw the things in the room, he turned to look at the head of the prison and shouted, "Where's the knife?"

"Not right there"

The jailer entered the room and was stunned when he saw that there was only a knife rack on the incense table. "Where is the knife?"

Bang.
Gu Chengfeng was not a good-tempered person. He immediately kicked the big man on the leg and said sternly, "Where's your knife?"

The jailer came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Wait a moment, young master. Perhaps there will be prisoners executed today." He turned around and ran out of the room quickly. He came to the outer room, called the jailer on duty, and asked anxiously, "Are there any prisoners to be executed today?"

The jailer was stunned and shook his head, "Boss, the city lord has stipulated that executions are always held at the beginning of the month."

Hear the words.

The head of the prison turned pale, raised his hand and grabbed the prison guard by the collar, and shouted, "Why is the ghost-headed sword in the death row missing?"

"Tell me, who took it!"

The jailer's face turned pale and he cried out: "The key to the death row is only owned by the chief and the city lord. I don't know it either."

"Trash!"

The jailer casually threw him aside, and when he saw Gu Chengfeng coming, he hurried forward to explain, but was greeted with a fierce slap in the face.

"roll!"

Gu Chengfeng's eyes turned red, and he shouted sternly: "Everyone, go find the Ghost-Headed Sword. If you can't find it, you will die!"

Seeing his angry look, the jailer dared not say a word. He covered his bruised and swollen face and called on the jailer to find the lost ghost-head sword.

the other side.

A turbulent river not far from Changxi.

The gradually turning red river water not only did not scare the people on both sides of the strait, but instead made the atmosphere even more heated.

Change to the past.

It’s almost time to end now, after all, big fish eat more than just gold and silver leaves.

But what surprised them was.

The big man standing on the dragon gate was still scattering gold and silver leaves, and the frequency was getting higher and higher, obviously more than before.

River bottom, river bed.

A dark cave about ten feet long and wide, and of unknown depth.

A strange big fish, about three feet long and made of black and white lines, slowly swam out from the dark pit.

One pure black pupil and one pure white pupil looked around vigilantly, and suddenly the whole body turned into dense black and white lines, rushing straight towards the spirit fish and fishermen on the water.
