"Push from behind..."

Then the girl felt a sharp pain on the back of her neck, her eyes darkened, her body softened for no reason, and she didn't know anything.

After the recollection was over, Feng Jian Youxiang, who had figured out the whole story, showed brief hesitation and surprise on her face. She raised her hand to touch her still aching neck.

"I was actually knocked out? This, this seems to be the worst defeat since fighting against others. Almost, there is no way to fight back."

Feng Jian Yuxiang stood up from the carpet paved with sunflowers and patted the dust off her plaid skirt.

Glancing around with her glowing red eyes, the girl used her demonic power to carefully sense the sunflower field on one side, but could not find any trace of the mountain man.

"Have you already left? That unknown strong man wearing a skull mask."

"It seems that it's not the guy from the human side who specially hired me to kill me. Otherwise, even if he didn't kill me, he wouldn't have given up so easily."

"And that kind of ominous power of death, even the underworld and the gods are not so pure. It really makes me feel curious and excited!"

After not encountering a strong person worth challenging and surpassing for a long time, Yuxiang Fengmi didn't remember much after encountering such a tragic defeat at first, but focused all her thoughts on how to defeat Shan Shan next time. Enter the old man.

Clenching her fists, Feng Jian Youxiang looked at the distant horizon where the sky and the earth met, her passionate fighting spirit brewing so high that it seemed to be enough to break through the sky.

"I can't continue to be lazy like this. The world is so big, there must be many hidden strong people."

"And my goal, from beginning to end, has always been, the strongest!!"

After knocking Kazami Yuka unconscious with one blow, the old man of the mountain who chose to leave regardless, finally met Renyan after a few days.

With the aura blocked, the mountain man openly approached the small village to inquire about the situation. However, after all, the small village was inhabited by poor people struggling at the bottom of society, and the information he could learn was extremely limited.

So the old man of the mountain came to Heian-kyo again, and after swaggering into several mansions that looked reasonable, he walked around a few times.

He finally figured out the place and time he was in, the Eastern Kingdom which was still in the middle and late period of the Asuka Era.

Calculated according to the time of human history, it is about 650 AD.

On the other side of the sea, the prosperous Tang Dynasty had just completed the change of power. Tang Gaozong Li Zhi took the baton from his father, Tang Taizong Li Shimin, and was about to work hard to expand Tiantang's territory to its peak.

After wandering around in Heian capital for a few days, the quiet man of the mountain left Heian capital without a sound, and came to a village with hundreds of people living in the mountains and rivers aimlessly.

And on the back mountain of this village, there is a lush and quiet bamboo forest, in which lives a terrifying big monster that will go down the mountain and eat people from time to time.

Rather than saying that the villagers have lived here for generations, it might be better to say that they are the rations kept here by an unknown big monster.

That night, the loud and melodious sound of the evening bell echoed in the air. The awakened villagers huddled in the corners of their homes bewildered and begged for God's blessing.

The lingering sound of the bell dissipated, and the villagers in twos and threes got together and found that nothing particularly strange happened, and it was just a false alarm.

Since then, the villagers have never seen the big man-eating monster again, but they often meet a burly old man who comes down from the mountain to the village to buy things.

The old man called himself Suzuki Satoru, a swordsman who chose to retreat to the mountains after wandering around, and planned to settle down in the bamboo forest for the time being.

In this ancient time when most people were nameless, villagers still preferred to call the old man Lao Shan Weng.

Although everyone can often see the old mountain man, no one can clearly remember his specific appearance. Even if he was talking face to face in the last second, the memory will become blurred after separation in the next second.

Undoubtedly, this mysterious old man who appeared suddenly was covered with a veil of mist.

But since the old mountain man took up residence in the bamboo forest, the villagers found that no monsters have ever come to infest the village again.

But every three days, they could hear a loud bell ringing from nowhere, solemn and solemn, and they couldn't help but spontaneously worship in the direction of the bamboo forest when the bell echoed.

The legend about the old mountain man was also spread through the mouths of the villagers, so that everyone living in Ping'an capital could hear about it.

In a bamboo forest hundreds of miles away from Ping'an-kyo, there lives a reclusive swordsman who is so powerful that he can kill a big monster by himself. His name is Laoshanweng.

Time flies, decades passed in a blink of an eye, and the wheel of history came to the early Nara period.

In the depths of the tranquil bamboo forest stands a bamboo house surrounded by a fence, and in the center of its courtyard stands a pitch-black sword with bloodstains on it.

The furnishings in the plain bamboo house are simple, except for daily furniture such as seats and chopsticks, there are no other useless luxury items. The only decoration is the skull mask hanging on the wall.

On the bank of a small river not far from the bamboo house, there was an old man sitting fishing with a fishing rod in his hand.

He was wearing a bamboo hat, and his snow-white half-length hair hung loosely behind his back. There was no wrinkle on his face, and a pair of faint blue eyes were staring at the fish floating on the water.

"The time of destiny has come..."

The moment the fish bit the hook, the old man of the mountain raised his pole and threw the fish into the air. With his eyes widened, the underworld fire that appeared out of nowhere wrapped the fresh fish just out of the water.

When the big fish fell into the hands of the mountain man, it had become a delicious grilled fish with just the right temperature control.

Although the food burned by the fire contains dead air that can kill ordinary people, it doesn't matter to the old man of the mountain.

In the more than ten years since he came to this world, the old man of the mountain has been living a life that is no different from ordinary people. This long-lost simple daily life makes him miss it.

Sitting by the river and listening to the gurgling water, the old man ate his lunch slowly, picked up his fishing rod and set foot on his way home.

At the same time, on the path from the river to the bamboo house, a certain slender bamboo gave off a golden light and exuded an extremely strong breath of life.

Chapter 92 Eternal and Momentary Sinners

"Hey···"

"Is this the ground? According to legend, that place is full of filth."

"If you can't kill the concubine, you will be sentenced to exile. Perhaps this is the fate of sinners who violate taboos..."

Penglai Shan Huiye sighed and said to himself in his heart, looking at the darkness in front of him, he couldn't help worrying about gains and losses, feeling extremely worried about his unknown future.

Back in time to about a few decades ago, the Moon Capital was even more deserted than before.

Under the sound of the evening bell, more than half of the population of the Moon City was suddenly wiped out, and the vitality of the Moon Capital was severely injured. It would not be able to recover in a short time.

Although the leadership team headed by Tsukiyo Mito has issued a series of orders after discussion, such as: prohibiting the production of condoms, prohibiting abortion, rewarding advanced production individuals, and other orders that are conducive to promoting rapid population growth.

And Bayi Yonglin has also started to make various high-efficiency drugs that can increase the chance of conception and prevent miscarriage, and minimize the side effects as much as possible.

At least, after the drug is taken, it will definitely not affect the fetus, and only God knows how the mother will be treated.

However, because the population growth rate of the Moon People was extremely low, the government's policy of vigorously encouraging births did not have any obvious effect for a while.

The reason why the highly developed Moon Capital did not fall into the predicament of negative population growth was because no one died in Gadu.

Yue Yejian, who spent the whole day sitting in the main hall with his head supported, didn't have the time to retreat and try to break free from the shackles of the gods. He almost used his own authority to force all the people of the moon to go home every day and close their rooms to make people. .

And in this kind of time when everything is waiting to be done, and the big shots are so busy and dizzy, the one who feels the happiest life may be Penglai Shanhuiye, who is the Princess of the Moon.

Since Yayi Yonglin was busy making medicine every day, the boring classes were cancelled.

Although Bayi Yonglin also left Mianyue Yiji, Mianyue Fengji, and Penglai Shanhuiye with homework as high as a hill, and left a notice that they need to submit it for inspection later.

But the girl said that she would rather go to flower arranging, practice tea ceremony or chess and other miscellaneous studies, or even female red embroidery, and would not touch those broken books full of "Zhihu Zheye", which people don't understand.

As for Penglai Shan Huiye's fate of being so rebellious, it is natural that when Yayi Yonglin resumed her job of teaching the moon princesses a few years later, she was mercilessly punished with a whip and fried pig's feet. He was left behind for the heinous after-school tutoring.

In the residence of Yashi Eirin, Horaisan Kaguya was writing with her right hand, while putting her red left hand to her mouth, blowing air and whispering in a low voice:

"Yonglin has become more and more ghostly and evil recently, and she really can handle it. The concubine has been beaten like this. Could it be that menopause has arrived?"

"Huh? Princess Huiye, what were you talking about just now?"

Yayi Yonglin, who lifted the curtain from the medicine making room, looked at Penglai Mountain Kaguya with a smile on her face, with a dangerous gleam in her eyes.

"No, it's nothing. It's just that these things are so boring. What's the use of learning them? Everyone is immortal anyway, and it won't be my turn to lead the Moon Capital in the future."

Horaishan Kaguya hurriedly changed the topic and glanced at Yashi Eirin cautiously, not sure whether she heard what he said about committing suicide just now.

"Princess, you can't have such thoughts. Do you just want to be a worthless useless person in the future? Or are you just a vase with a beautiful appearance?"

Bayi Yonglin walked to Huiye's small table in Mount Penglai, condescendingly looked at the girl kneeling on the ground, and was about to start a long speech on ideological education when there was a knock on the door.

"Master Sage, Sir Moon Night Jianzun, please go to the main hall now, there are important matters to discuss."

"Understood, I'll go there later."

After Yayi Eirin dismissed the soldier responsible for delivering the message, his eyes returned to Horaishan Kaguya.

"Princess Huiye will continue to concentrate on studying here first. Before I come back, at least I must recite this article proficiently and write it down silently!"

"Okay, okay, Teacher Yonglin, just go ahead with peace of mind."

Penglai Shanhuiye nodded his head, watching the back of Bayi Yonglin gradually disappear into the distance, then dropped the pen in his hand and lay down on the ground.

"Well, I'm really exhausted. I really wish I could stay in my room all day, drinking tea and playing games."

"By the way, what has Yonglin been up to lately? If it's just making some medicines that are not suitable for children, it shouldn't be such a hassle for her."

As Kaguya Horaishan spoke, he looked towards the laboratory with the door half open, where Yashi Eirin usually researched drugs. It seemed that no one else had entered except himself.

But now that such a good opportunity is in front of him, how could the already curious Penglai Shan Huiye give up this once-in-a-hundred-million-year opportunity.

At the same time, Bayi Yonglin, who was summoned, had already arrived at the main hall of the Moon City, and saw Yue Yejianzun who was still holding his head with his hands.

Even though she wanted to laugh every time she saw the other party's funny appearance, Yayi Yonglin, who had already cultivated the highest level of invisibility of emotions and anger, still resisted the urge.

The other sages of the moon also came to the hall one after another after Bayi Yonglin. After all the gods holding power and the high-ranking members of the people of the moon were all counted, the meeting officially began.

Only then did Yachi Yonglin remember that the door of his laboratory seemed to have been forgotten to be locked when he left in a hurry, but he could not leave midway after the meeting had already begun.

So she put this matter behind her first, and after thinking about the medicine she had made for a long time, she was talking to herself.

"Even though it hasn't been made for hundreds of years, the craftsmanship is still familiar! The Penglai medicine of immortality."

(Note: Originally, Kaguya asked Eirin to create it on a whim. The plot has been modified here, and both Chang'e and Xu Fu have taken the elixir before)

Penglai Shan Huiye, who broke into the laboratory on tiptoe, looked around, but didn't touch the various bottles and jars with notes on them, and the tools and machines that he didn't know what they were used for.

"Eh? What is this? A new medicine made by Eirin?"

Penglai Shanhuiye picked up a white bottle made of pure jade that Baiyi Yonglin put on the workbench, and pulled out the cork on it curiously.

An indescribable medicinal fragrance spewed out from the bottle, as if just taking a few sips would make people energetic and energetic.

The green light illuminated the dim laboratory, allowing Horaishan Kaguya to see clearly the only three pills in the bottle.

"It's so beautiful! Is it the medicine of Penglai? The effect is to make the person who takes it achieve true immortality."

After pouring out a pill, Horaishan Kaguya turned the bottle over and saw the note attached to it, and learned all the relevant instructions from it.

"There doesn't seem to be any side effects, and this medicine should be very expensive..."

Recalling today's feud with fried bamboo shoots and meat, Kaguya of Horaishan, who was on a whim, stuffed the medicine of Horai into her mouth like a rage, and made an important decision at the crossroads of fate.

After committing the crime, Horaishan Kaguya corked the medicine bottle and put it back in its place, then ran back to the table and continued fishing. It wasn't until Yashi Eirin came back that she pretended to study seriously.

"Is it a medicine to dispel the power of death? It is not difficult, but it is really a big challenge to dispel that level of power of death."

After the meeting, Yue Ye Jianzun, who was supported by the head, asked Baiyi Yonglin to do things, muttering, and returned to her residence, not in the mood to check Penglai Shanhui Ye's homework.

After sending away the absent-minded Princess Huiye, Yayi Yonglin returned to the laboratory and devoted herself to her work, not even noticing that the bottle containing the elixir had been tampered with.

After that, Penglaishan Huiye, who was completely unaware of the seriousness of the matter, was quickly discovered by other Moon People and revealed it.

The immortality of the people of the moon and the immortality of the Penglai medicine, although similar, are two completely different concepts.

The people of the moon who live forever just because the moon is free of dirt are, in the final analysis, just short-lived species with a limited lifespan, and Kaguya's actions on Mount Horai undoubtedly violated the taboo of the moon city.

Although she is the princess of the moon, she was still severely punished under the anger of the public.

Yayi Yonglin originally wanted to take part of the responsibility herself to alleviate Penglai Shanhuiye's guilt, but it was collectively rejected by those in power headed by Yue Yejianzun.

Penglaishan Huiye who took the medicine of immortality has become an eternal existence, no matter beheading, burning, flooding, shooting or other death penalty can not completely kill him.

Although it was painful every time he died, Kaguya Horaiyama still persisted in enduring it.

Unfortunately, the people of the moon in Mount Huiye of Penglai imprisoned her temporarily, without water or food for more than ten years.

Keeping her in a desperate cycle of being starved to death and thirsty to death, resurrected, and then starved to death and thirsty again, her misery is comparable to that of Prometheus who was once shrunk on the Caucasus Mountain.

In the end, at the suggestion of someone who didn't know, the proposal to exile the sinner Horai Shan Kaguya to a filthy place as a punishment was discussed and passed.

Therefore, Penglai Shanhuiye who was killed again was sent to the ground before reincarnation, and when she woke up, she was already in a place with only darkness.

The old man of the mountain who came back from fishing saw this strange shiny bamboo on the side of the road. He stopped and looked at it a little bit. He felt the breath of life inside, but he didn't care.

"Glowing bamboo? It just so happens that the candles at home are used up, so cut it back and hang it up as an everlasting lamp."

Chapter 93 Taketori Kaguya

The old man of the mountain took off the hatchet that had been hanging from his waist, walked slowly to the bamboo with a section of gleaming bamboo, and took off the bamboo section completely with two waves of the knife.

The bamboo tube with its top and bottom closed is perfect. Even if you drill a small hole to pour some wine or tea into it and use it as a wine pot or teapot, there will be no problem.

However, due to its sparkling characteristics, the old man of the mountain still intends to use it as a light source to save money on candles and lamp oil.
