My Taoist buddy has practiced surrogacy

Chapter 1360 Discovery
The rainstorm poured down again, but it automatically diverted three inches above their heads. The suspended lotus buds solidified into entities, and a jade slip emerged from each of the two buds. The moment Zhou Xing reached out to touch it, the entire flower room was suddenly pulled into an ink painting fantasy.

The scene of the two people's failed tribulation nine hundred years ago appeared in the ink fantasy, and they needed to correct the choice they made back then. The spiritual power blended, and Ling Xue's body sealed the extreme yang spiritual power, which produced a special resonance with Zhou Xing's extreme yin spiritual power. The prohibition backfired, and the forced use of spiritual power caused the modern body to crystallize, and the fingertips began to become transparent.

Zhou Xing followed Ling Xue back to the royal city and was arranged to stay in the post house temporarily. However, there was an undercurrent in the court. The prime minister and his faction had always opposed trade with overseas countries, believing that this move would undermine the customs and economy of Ling State. Zhou Xing's arrival this time gave them an excuse to attack.

Ling Xue knew the importance of Zhou Xing's trade, and in order to protect him, she read the "Four Seas Atlas" collected by her father overnight, and carefully compared it with the map of the foreign countries brought by Zhou Xing. She found that there was a mysterious route marked on the map, which gave her a hint of a trump card.

In the imperial study, Ling Xue spoke for Zhou Xing, using the Four Seas Atlas to demonstrate the strategic significance of overseas trade. Her words were sincere and well-reasoned, and the emperor was moved after hearing them.

At this time, the emperor bestowed a ruby-encrusted curved sword and ordered Zhou Xing to form a caravan within three days. Ling Xue deliberately pulled off the jade pendant on the scabbard, and then whispered to Zhou Xing: "See you at the Ghost Market in the East Market at midnight."

At midnight, the ghost market in the East City. Ling Xue came here wearing a silver silk mask. She saw Zhou Xing's merchant ship loading medicinal materials. Suddenly, she found that the banned black iron was mixed in the bottom of the cabin. Before she could react, the masked men surrounded her from all directions.

Just as the masked man was about to attack, Zhou Xing suddenly appeared. He protected Ling Xue behind him and shouted sternly, "Who are you?" The two sides were in a stalemate.

On the first day of the second year of high school, the sycamore trees on campus swayed gently in the breeze, making rustling sounds. Zhou Xing, carrying his schoolbag, hurried into the classroom. As soon as he sat down in his seat, he heard a noise coming from the back row.

It turned out that several boys were surrounding a girl, trying to snatch the exercise book from her. The girl hugged the exercise book tightly, frowning, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes. Zhou Xing recognized her as the newly transferred city champion Ling Xue.

Zhou Xing stood up, walked up to the boys, and said coldly: "You guys, is it okay to bully a new classmate?" The boys looked at Zhou Xing with some disdain: "Mind your own business." Zhou Xing's eyes became sharp, and he slowly said: "I will take care of today's matter."

At this time, the head teacher came in. Zhou Xing suddenly had an idea and pointed to the "Student Code" on the wall and said, "Teacher, they violated the "Student Code" and should be punished." The head teacher looked at the boys, then looked at Ling Xue, and said seriously, "You guys, clean up the garbage at the back of the classroom."

The boys grumbled reluctantly, but still went to get the tools to clean up. When Zhou Xing turned around, he saw Ling Xue filling the blank spaces of her exercise book with force analysis diagrams. He couldn't help but feel a little more curious about this new classmate.

On the day of the monthly exam results, the campus was bustling with activity. Students gathered in front of the bulletin board to check their scores. Ling Xue ranked first with full marks, and Zhou Xing's math paper had three solutions to the last big question that filled the footer, and his score was also among the best.

The dean of teaching stood in front of the bulletin board and praised Ling Xue in public: "Ling Xue, you are the pride of our school, keep it up." Ling Xue smiled and nodded. However, the dean of teaching changed the subject and pointed at Zhou Xing's test paper and said: "However, some students should pay attention. It is not good to jump around in your answers." Zhou Xing's face flashed with embarrassment.

After school, Zhou Xing came to the rooftop alone. He sat on the railing of the rooftop, looking at the sky in the distance, feeling a little depressed. At this time, Ling Xue came up to the rooftop with a pile of competition questions.

Zhou Xing stood up cautiously, but Ling Xue just glanced at him calmly, then took out a piece of chalk and drew auxiliary lines on the rusty iron door. She said, "They asked you to solve the problem, but I want to teach you to understand the prism of the world." Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue, and an inexplicable feeling of emotion welled up in his heart.

The physics competition training began. Zhou Xing encountered a problem during the experiment. He repeatedly debugged the circuit, but still couldn't make the light bulb light up. He became more and more impatient, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Ling Xue watched quietly at the side, and suddenly reached out to adjust the rheostat. The light bulb lit up instantly, and Zhou Xing's hand shook violently, almost knocking over the reagent bottle next to him. Ling Xue looked at him and said softly, "Don't worry, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes." Zhou Xing looked at her gratefully.

After that, the two of them often stayed up all night to calculate in the equipment room. Once, Ling Xue drew Maxwell's equations on Zhou Xing's palm using a function curve. Zhou Xing looked at her concentration and felt a ripple in his heart.

During the school anniversary party, the campus was brightly lit and bustling. However, a storm was quietly brewing. The Academic Affairs Office suddenly announced the cancellation of the experimental class's privileges, which made many students dissatisfied.

Zhou Xing stood up as a student representative to protest, and he expressed his ideas passionately. However, his excitement was regarded by some teachers as "leading the riot". Just when the situation was at a stalemate, Ling Xue suddenly raised her hand and said, "I apply to join the self-study group of the ordinary class." The whole audience was shocked.

Zhou Xing looked at Ling Xue in surprise, but then he understood her intention. In the heavy rain, the two of them returned to the classroom under the same umbrella. Ling Xue took out the competition notice with anti-counterfeiting thread sewn on it and said to Zhou Xing: "Is this deal worth it to exchange a place in the provincial team for the qualification to audit the regular class?" Zhou Xing looked at her determined eyes and nodded.

The National Olympic Training Camp has begun. Zhou Xing accidentally triggered an alarm during an experiment and was taken to the office by the staff. Ling Xue rushed to the office immediately after hearing the news.

She calmly presented her experimental data for the past three months and said to the staff: "His error rate is 0.3% lower than the standard. Please let him continue to participate in the competition." The staff looked at the data and had nothing to say, so they had to agree to let Zhou Xing continue to participate.

Late at night, Ling Xue checked the data by the bathtub in the hotel. She found that Zhou Xing secretly modified some parameters to take responsibility. She angrily found Zhou Xing, pushed him against the wall, and said angrily: "Do you think I was assigned to the provincial team because of sympathy?" Zhou Xing lowered his head and did not dare to look her in the eye.

On the night of the award ceremony, the lights were bright. Zhou Xing held the medal with joy, ready to show off to Ling Xue. However, when he saw the words "To my brother" engraved on the back of Ling Xue's gold medal, his smile froze. In the radio station, the confession tape he prepared was still playing, but he lost his courage. The storm of recommendation swept in. Ling Xue refused the qualification for recommendation to Tsinghua University, which puzzled many people. She threw out the collection of wrong questions compiled by Zhou Xing in the principal's office and said firmly: "These are what I should take away."

Zhou Xing was touched and guilty when he heard the news. On the eve of the International Olympiad, he stuffed a bottle of cherry blossom specimens into Ling Xue's desk. There was a note between the petals: "Look, electrons can also jump."

During the finals, there was a sudden equipment failure. Zhou Xing was extremely anxious and drew a 3D model of the electromagnetic field by hand to try to solve the problem. At this time, Ling Xue suddenly raised her hand and said, "I am willing to exchange my place in the finals for a backup power supply." The whole audience was shocked, and the referee team agreed to her request after an emergency discussion.

In autumn in Tsinghua University, the paths are covered with ginkgo leaves. Ling Xue returned as a specially-appointed researcher. She walked into Zhou Xing's laboratory and pointed at the code on his computer and said, "The seventh line of loop nesting should use recursion." Zhou Xing looked at her and smiled and said, "You are really good."

At the academic conference, the nanomaterials Zhou Xing displayed caused a sensation. Ling Xue suddenly stood up, projected the formula they derived in high school, and said, "This model should have been called the 'Zhou-Ling Law' five years ago." The audience applauded.

Late at night in the school history museum, the two secretly engraved words on the Olympic silver medal. Ling Xue's engraving machine filled in the sunken part with "To my opponent who never admits defeat", while Zhou Xing's electric iron burned "To my companion who is always one step away" on the edge of the gold medal.

The alma mater celebrated its centenary, and the campus was decorated with lights and was bustling. Zhou Xing, now an academician, stood in front of the iron gate that was engraved with formulas back then, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

At this time, Ling Xue came over with the list of gold medalists in the International Olympic Games. The setting sun stretched the shadows of the two people into parallel lines. Ling Xue smiled and said, "This time we don't have to pretend that one is faster than the other." Zhou Xing looked at her with tenderness in his eyes.

Photos of the two when they were young hang in the corridor of the newly built laboratory. Rusty iron door fragments and half a box of faded cherry blossom specimens are placed side by side in the glass display case. Young students point at the photos and whisper, while two competition medals tied with red ropes by the window are gently colliding in the morning light.

In the morning, the first rays of sunlight shine on the thousand-acre flower field. The colorful flowers sway gently in the wind, like a gorgeous ocean. Zhou Xing, as usual, shuttled between the flowers and skillfully trimmed the branches. He was tall and straight, with a stern face, and his focused expression seemed to blend into the flower field.

Zhou Xing is a talented disciple of Haoqing Sect, and now he has become a flower farmer in this small world. He carefully takes care of these flowers every day, but he finds that the rainbow roses he cultivates are always missing a petal. This is his ninth failed cultivation, and every failure makes him feel a dull pain in his heart, as if there is an invisible force hindering him.

At the same time, Ling Xue was sitting in her live broadcast room with a warm smile on her face. She is a rural internet celebrity product promoter, and today's live broadcast location is in Zhou Xing's flower field. "Family, look at this beautiful rainbow rose, each one is so beautiful and has a special meaning!" Ling Xue said to the camera, "Follow the store to unlock the flower language code."

However, during the live broadcast, Ling Xue accidentally touched a barrier in the flower field. In an instant, a strange light flashed, and the star-fallen flower seeds hidden underground were exposed. This sudden situation made Ling Xue a little overwhelmed, and Zhou Xing, who was far away at the other end of the flower field, also noticed something strange and frowned.

At this moment, the sky suddenly became overcast with dark clouds, and thunder rolled in. These were the thirty-six love thunders, the test they had to face in this world. In a panic, Ling Xue looked for a place to avoid the thunder and accidentally hid in Zhou Xing's hut.

Seeing this, Zhou Xing quickly took out a purple jade gourd, muttered something, and collected the thunder in it. But the love thunder was so powerful that Zhou Xing was attacked, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the corner of Ling Xue's skirt red. Ling Xue looked at the injured Zhou Xing in front of her, and her heart tightened. Zhou Xing also looked at this woman who suddenly appeared in his life, and a hint of complex emotions flashed in his eyes.

After Ling Xue returned to her residence, the scene of Zhou Xing being injured kept appearing in her mind. She looked at the hem of her skirt stained with Zhou Xing's blood, and an inexplicable impulse surged in her heart. So, she decided to make the blood-stained fabric into a limited edition "Flower God's Tears" handkerchief.

Once the handkerchief was launched, it instantly caused a sensation on the Internet. Orders came in like snowflakes, reaching 3,000 in just three days. However, all of this was due to the subtle fragrance emitted by Ling Xue's special physique, which attracted the secret agents of the Demon Sect.

After Zhou Xing learned about this, he came to check the situation. He used the spiritual spring to water the treasure tree in Ling Xue's live studio, but was surprised to find that the "Taixu Yanxing Jue" lost by Hao Qing Sect emerged from the tree's heart. This discovery startled him, and he realized that there might be a huge secret hidden behind it.

In order to find out the truth, the two decided to track down the fake flower farmer. They tracked all the way to the mountain temple, where they found an abandoned tribulation formation. There were 999 circles of concentric patterns left on the ground, and these traces seemed to tell an unknown story. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue looked at each other, and saw doubt and vigilance in each other's eyes. They knew that all this had just begun.

On a quiet night, Zhou Xing was patrolling the flower fields as usual. Suddenly, he saw Ling Xue making a wish to a shooting star in the flower fields. An ice crystal Epiphyllum bloomed in Ling Xue's palm, emitting a soft light, beautiful and mysterious.

Zhou Xing's heart moved, he recognized this Epiphyllum. He walked to Ling Xue and revealed: "Every time you broadcast live, it will accelerate the growth of surrounding plants by a hundred years. This ice crystal Epiphyllum is the evidence." After hearing this, Ling Xue's eyes were full of surprise. She never thought that she actually had such an ability.

Soon after, the poverty alleviation cadres sent a robot to help farmers. However, as soon as the robot was turned on, the core program was interfered by Ling Xue's special magnetic field, and the electronic screen displayed garbled code: "Warning! Upper world fragment energy detected." Zhou Xing and Ling Xue realized that the appearance of this robot seemed to be not simple.

A rainstorm suddenly hit the flower field, and the wind was howling, blowing the flowers all over the place. Zhou Xing and Ling Xue hurried to protect the flower field. In a panic, their palms touched. In an instant, a powerful force flowed between them, awakening the sealed life instruments. Ling Xue's hairpin turned into a blue phoenix, and Zhou Xing's hoe turned into a white tiger. The two instruments confronted each other, as if telling the entanglement of their fate.

Because the Fallen Star Flower seeds absorbed too much love, they triggered the Nine-fold Thunder Tribulation warning in advance. In the night sky, purple thunderclouds covered the ten-mile flower field, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people breathless.

At this time, a mysterious storyteller appeared in the village. He took his stance and began to tell the story of "The Flower Farmer and the Fox Demon". Strangely, every time the wake-up wood was struck, the morning bell of the Haoqing Sect could be heard.
