If she did not suddenly think of Xiu Yi's spider lilies that bloomed all over the Yellow Springs, Jiujiu felt that she would definitely ask the Lord of the Underworld to move a place for Granny Meng's manor. A place that was constantly filled with thunderous sounds was truly affecting her rest.
The spider lilies were like weeds on the side of the road. Jiujiu planted them in a flower pot and they only needed one day to grow tender green shoots. After half a month, they would grow to half a person's height. After another half a month, they would bloom into blood-like flowers that were enchanting and charming.
Jiujiu was especially fond of beautiful things. Moreover, this was the only spider lilies that could survive in the Yellow Springs. Jiujiu simply loved the spider lilies to death.
Jiujiu felt that she had become an eager old mother. Every day, she would water and fertilize the spider lilies in hopes that they would grow even more luxuriant. It would be best if they could bloom all over the Yellow Springs so that she could no longer hear the sound of the wind and sand hitting the window.
On this day, Jiujiu was planting the spider lilies that she had just collected beside the River of Forgetfulness when she suddenly heard Black Tortoise's voice from behind her: "What are you doing here?"
Although this Black Tortoise was cold and ignored her, because Black Tortoise was the first person that she had met and was someone that she knew before, seeing Black Tortoise now, Jiujiu could not help but feel a sense of closeness.
Jiujiu presented the spider lilies in front of Black Tortoise as if she was presenting a treasure. She smiled and said: "I'm planting flowers."
"Planting flowers?" Black Tortoise looked at Jiujiu like he was looking at an idiot: "The yellow sand of the Yellow Springs is condensed from the world's ugliest souls. It is even more poisonous than the world's most poisonous poison. Don't even mention planting flowers, even weeds cannot survive."
Black Tortoise looked at Jiujiu with a gaze that said you're not an idiot.
Jiujiu did not think that she would not receive Black Tortoise's praise when she happily shared her experience of planting flowers. Instead, she received his merciless ridicule. Jiujiu was instantly unhappy. She pursed her lips and said: "What if I plant flowers?"
Black Tortoise: "Nonsense."
Jiujiu: "If I can grow a flower, you have to promise me one thing."
Black Tortoise: "Alright, but I advise you not to waste your effort because it's simply impossible."
Just as Black Tortoise finished speaking, he saw a tender leaf growing on the side of the River of Forgetfulness.
Because it grew beside the River of Forgetfulness and had sufficient water, the red spider lilies here grew much faster than the red spider lilies in other places. In the beginning, it was only a small green bud, but in a breath's time, it had already grown a dark green leaf. After a quarter of an hour, the leaf fell off and bloomed into a flower as red as blood.
The Black Tortoise looked at the blooming Red Spider Lily in astonishment and said in shock, "What … what flower is this?"
"Red Spider Lily." When Jiujiu saw that the Red Spider Lily was growing so quickly, she immediately bent down and buried the other seeds beside the River of Forgetfulness. In a short while, a patch of lush Red Spider Lilies grew on the side of the River of Forgetfulness. When Jiujiu finished, the Red Spider Lilies that were planted at the beginning had already grown tender green leaves. It could be seen that the Red Spider Lilies that were planted at the beginning had already grown seeds. They fell with the wind and landed not far away. When they landed, they sprouted tender green buds again. For a moment, Black Tortoise actually had a feeling that this was not the yellow spring filled with yellow sand.
Just as Black Tortoise was about to ask Jiujiu where she got these flower seeds, Jiujiu's expression suddenly changed and her figure suddenly disappeared.
Black Tortoise frowned and also left with Jiujiu.
The jade pendant that Jiujiu gave Qing Luan had a transportation array. As long as Qing Luan smashed the jade pendant, the transportation array would transport her to where Qing Luan was. When Jiujiu arrived, she saw Qing Luan kneeling on the ground. Her clothes were already soaked in blood. Qing Luan's face was pale without a trace of blood. When she saw Jiujiu appear, Qing Luan let out a long sigh of relief. Her body softly fell to the ground, revealing the baby in her arms.
That baby looked to be only one month old. Between the eyebrows, there was an eighty percent resemblance to Qing Luan. With one look, one could tell that it was Qing Luan's child.
However, when Qing Luan left the yellow spring, she was already pregnant. If she was born, the child would have been able to play around long ago. Hence, this child was given birth by Qing Luan.
Jiujiu bent down and picked up the child. After seeing Qing Luan's appearance that was covered in blood, she took out a medicinal pill and stuffed it into Qing Luan's mouth. She looked at the vigilant Taoist priest who was standing opposite her with a long sword in his hand. She turned her head and asked Qing Luan, "What happened?"
When Qing Luan said that she had known her lover for five hundred years, Jiujiu guessed that her lover was a cultivator. Why did Qing Luan look like she was injured by this group of cultivators? It was really strange.
Hearing Jiujiu ask what happened, Qing Luan, who swallowed the medicinal pill and recovered some strength, instantly had her eyes red. Her tears fell uncontrollably and wet her clothes.
As Qing Luan's tears fell, the group of Taoist priests who were holding long swords opposite Jiujiu showed a greedy expression. Looking at their appearance, if they didn't know Jiujiu's depth, they would probably rush to Qing Luan and swallow the tears on Qing Luan's face.
"Manor Master, Qing Luan is wrong." Qing Luan mocked herself, "He lied to me. He said that he wanted to marry me not because he loved me, but because of my tears."
"Meng Po's tears are the most sacred thing of love. Swallowing one can improve ten years of cultivation. If it's sad tears, it can even improve one hundred years of cultivation. He said that he wanted to marry me just to improve his cultivation with my tears. I hate that I was deceived by him and would rather become a mortal for him."
The more Qing Luan said, the more sad she was. The tears in her eyes were like beads with a broken string.
In the past, every time that person made love with her, he liked to make her cry and then constantly licked the tears from her eyes. He said that she looked very beautiful when she cried because of him.
At that time, Qing Luan's heart was devoted to that person. She didn't expect that person to lie.
When she came out of Meng Po's Manor, because she was pregnant, that person couldn't have sex with her. The two of them got along very well. Because she was Meng Po, her pregnancy naturally couldn't be calculated by a person's ten months of pregnancy.
She was pregnant for nine years. When the child was born, her vitality was damaged. After recuperating for more than half a year, she and that person began to make love again. However, this time, no matter what that person did, she wouldn't cry.
During that time, that person had been particularly irritable. At first, Qing Luan thought that it was because she was no longer young and beautiful after giving birth to a child. However, when she passed by that person's house and heard his conversation with others, she knew that he didn't like her at all. The reason why he married her was only because of the tears in her eyes. Just now, he actually threatened her with the child in her arms, telling her to cry quickly. Otherwise, he would kill the child in her arms.
Qing Luan never thought that that person would actually kill his own child for her tears. In shock, Qing Luan used her own body to block that person's sword. Because of this, she broke the jade pendant that Jiujiu gave her.
