Chapter 46 Taking Back the Incense for Nezha
Chapter 46 Taking Back the Incense for Nezha
Qianyuan Mountain, Jinguang Cave.
"Junior brother, your soul is too weak."
Master Yu Ding had a head of messy hair and his face was covered in sweat from exhaustion.
Looking at Nezha's spirit, which was still floating in mid-air without any sign of waking up, he vigorously shook his fan.
"Fan! Fan! Fan!" Master Taiyi snatched the fan away and threw it aside, his brows furrowed in worry.
"Don't you dare blow my disciple's soul away!"
Master Yuding was speechless for a moment.
Although he was the senior brother of Taiyi Zhenren, the Twelve Golden Immortals were ranked according to their strength. Even as the third disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, he was inferior to his fellow disciples.
You think your apprentice is so precious! I was called here to help, but before I could even drink a cup of tea, I went into the cave and started working.
He looked at Nezha's almost transparent soul and muttered to himself:
"What's so great about Lingzhu being a disciple? When I take on disciples in the future, their talents will definitely be even greater!"
"Hurry up and cast the spell, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Seeing his junior brother urging him again, Master Yuding became even more determined to take on an even more powerful disciple so he could show off to his senior brother!
Another cycle of the sun and moon has begun.
Jade Cauldron Immortal, whose magical power was not high to begin with, was now so exhausted that he kept waving his hands as he crawled to the edge of the lotus-filled alchemy pool, panting. He waved his hands repeatedly and said:
"No, no, this is no good. It's only been seven days, there are still six more seven-day periods. My bones are going to collapse from exhaustion."
"When will the ancestral hall of Madam Li be repaired?"
Upon hearing this, Master Taiyi fell into deep thought.
The day after the message was sent to Lady Li, a shrine for Nezha was already being built on Cuiping Mountain.
It will take about a month.
Although Nezha's soul was extremely weak at this moment, it was able to remain intact thanks to the combined efforts of the two.
Taiyi Zhenren put down his whisk and walked to the jade cauldron, which was lying on the ground looking disheveled.
"Get up, it's time to start sculpting the clay figures."
Watching his junior brother run off to move soil, Master Yu Ding couldn't help but ask a heart-wrenching question:
"Do you only see your disciple and not me, your senior brother?"
He was so exhausted he was about to throw up.
Wronged!
Even my master has never ordered me around like this!
However, all that responded to him was a heavy mound of earth.
Taiyi Zhenren mixed the water from the alchemy pool where lotuses were nurtured and personally sculpted Nezha's body.
Driven by his deep affection for his disciple, Master Taiyi put in utmost care, creating a replica of Nezha almost in perfect proportion to his original appearance.
Even the number of eyelashes drawn on his eyelashes is the same as Nezha's.
This made Master Yu Ding sigh deeply.
"It's just a vessel for a soul, why are you taking it so seriously?"
"What do you know!"
Taiyi Zhenren cursed his senior brother, who had no disciples and therefore no understanding of such feelings, and looked at Nezha's soul with affection, comparing the size of his fingernail with a piece of soil, afraid that he would not make it look right for his disciple.
"I don't understand? That's a joke!"
Master Yuding stood up, his mud-covered finger pointing to the sky, and said helplessly:
"It's precisely because I know too much that I can't master anything!"
These words made Taiyi Zhenren laugh in anger, and he cursed with a laugh:
"So you knew about it too."
His senior brother was exceptionally talented, possessing a photographic memory. Anything he could randomly pull out of his mind could be a wonderful cultivation technique. However, precisely because he knew too much, he was not proficient in anything.
To this day, I can't even climb clouds.
I asked him for help, or I went to pick him up myself.
Master Yu Ding squatted down, picked up a handful of soil, rubbed his shoulder, and then said to the doting disciple:
"Did you pour too much water? Why is this mud so runny?"
He raised the arm and forcefully shoved it into the torso. Just as he released it, a sound was heard...
splat,
The arm fell off and smashed flat on the ground.
Taiyi Zhenren's eyes widened in horror, and he let out a mournful cry:
"My apprentice!"
amount……
Feeling rather embarrassed and scratching his head, Master Yuding, facing his junior brother's murderous gaze, quickly said:
"It's none of my business. I was just saying this mud is runny. Hey, hey, what's with that look? Don't you dare lay a hand on me, or I'll tell my master!"
Besides, my nephew's soul is trapped in the mud; he'll probably lose weight every time he takes a bath. That's not good.
Taiyi Zhenren was also aware of this drawback, but Nezha possessed the Samadhi True Fire.
Clay, when fired, becomes solid.
As Nezha's master, he naturally wanted to give him the best, but what could he do when resources were limited?
"If the goddess Nuwa were to personally light incense, Nezha's soul would become strong enough to resist being trapped in the mud."
Upon hearing this, Master Yuding trembled, squatted down, picked up his flattened arm, and said:
"Don't even dream about it. Even if Master goes to ask, people might not give him the time of day."
You personally light the incense, that's a big deal!
Although they are among the Twelve Golden Immortals, their status is far too low compared to that of the Goddess Nuwa. They should just stick to making clay.
This hand is really hard to hold.
As Master Yu Ding was kneading, he was suddenly inspired and managed to make six fingers out of five, which he proudly showed to his junior brother.
"Junior brother, don't you think your nephew looks cooler with six fingers now?"
Taiyi Zhenren suddenly launched an attack.
He landed a left hook on Yu Ding.
I'll make you cool!
This is what Yang Jiao saw when she ran into the Golden Light Cave.
The two real people, covered in mud, rolled around on the ground...
"Excuse me, did I disturb you two?"
Instantly, both of them felt a chill run down their spines and their bodies tense up.
Taiyi Zhenren straightened his robes, tossed his hair, climbed off his senior brother, sat cross-legged, flicked his whisk, and laughed:
"Fellow Daoist has come to see Nezha. Perfect timing, come and massage my hands."
Let that good-for-nothing senior brother see that even a three-year-old girl is better than him!
Upon hearing the address of "junior brother," Master Yuding exclaimed and repeated it:
"Fellow Daoist!?"
"Junior brother, when did you become like this?"
How come he didn't hear about how he's fallen to this state?
Is life outside really that hard? Why should you humiliate yourself to this extent when you need to be on the same level as a child? Even if you can't make a living, there's always food to eat somewhere else.
This was the first time that Master Yuding had seen Yang Jiao. He felt that although she was beautifully sculpted, she was nothing special.
Too lazy to talk to someone like that, Taiyi Zhenren smiled and waited for Yang Jiao to speak.
"Could this be Yu Ding... our second son's master?"
Yang Jiao recognized Master Yu Ding at a glance; he was quite a formidable master!
First, deal with Nezha's matter, and then ask him if he'd be willing to take you in.
What's wrong with adding her as a teacher who could have taught Yang Jian and Yang Chan?
A family should always be together.
After thinking it over, Yang Jiao smiled even more adorably, and ran over with her short legs.
"Greetings, my lords. I have fulfilled my mission and am back."
Taiyi Zhenren, exhausted, fanned himself with his hand. Hearing this, he was instinctively a little confused: "Huh?"
Yang Jiao said blankly, "Didn't you say there were two ways to save Nezha? So I went to ask Goddess Nuwa for help!"
Even the Great Immortal Taiyi was momentarily stunned, then smiled wryly:
"That was just a casual remark. My senior brother and I were just talking about it. Even if all twelve of us Golden Immortals went, we might not be able to get her to light incense. After all, she is Nuwa... So, we've already decided to use a regular resurrection method... Ah! What's this in your hand!?"
Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Yangjiao stretched out her hand.
"Here, incense personally lit by the Goddess Nuwa."
Upon hearing this, the two masters exclaimed in unison in shock:
"What! You got what you asked for!?"
Taiyi Zhenren stared at the incense stick emitting wisps of smoke before him, his scalp tingling with fear. He asked incredulously:
"You went to the Nuwa Palace?"
Yang Jiao nodded.
He then asked:
"The Goddess Nuwa not only met you but also lit incense for you?!"
Mentioning the goddess Nuwa, Yang Jiao nodded vigorously and stated:
"The Empress is a very kind person, and she even invited me to visit her often."
belch!
The Jade Cauldron Immortal, who was standing to the side, was so frightened that he let out a loud hiccup, feeling as if his body was floating and unreal.
Is the Nuwa Goddess mentioned by this little girl the same Nuwa Goddess who is on par with her master, Yuanshi Tianzun?
Something's not right, something's definitely not right.
After a long while, Taiyi Zhenren finally recovered from his shock and blankly accepted the incense stick that had been lit by his lover.
immediately,
He turned around and sat flat on the clay figure he had painstakingly sculpted.
"Junior brother!" Master Yuding was startled, his eyes widening. "You've killed your disciple by sitting on him!"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Taiyi Zhenren flicked his whisk, looked at the completely shapeless pile of mud, and sneered:
"What kind of mud is worthy of my apprentice?"
Jade tripod:
"Have you forgotten why you hit me?"
At this moment, Master Taiyi stood tall and looked at Yang Jiao with eyes full of gratitude!
He didn't have the opportunity before.
Now we have incense burning.
he,
Taiyi Zhenren
Let's go big!
Get an even cooler skin for your apprentice!
