The heavens start from Quanzhen swordsmanship

This is the time when peach blossoms are in full bloom, and pink chrysanthemums cover Peach Blossom Mountain.

The bluestone steps leading from the foot of the mountain to Peach Blossom Mountain are also covered with peach blossoms.

Even without wind, Xu Zhiqing could smell the rich fragrance of peach blossoms as he walked on the bluestone steps.

There are many plants in Taohua Mountain, but there are not many weeds under the peach trees. The soil has been turned over and still exudes the unique smell of soil.

There must be someone taking care of Taohua Mountain.

After Xu Zhiqing admired the peach blossoms on the roadside, he looked at Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou.

"Sister-in-law, brother, are you the only ones staying in Taohua Mountain?"

"Where are Yang Jiao and the others?"

Yao Ji didn't react yet, Yang Tianyou sighed and said, "Don't mention that stinky boy Yang Jiao. The Heavenly Court asked him to be an official but he refused to do it. He said he wanted to go out and kill evildoers."

"He has been away for hundreds of years now. He occasionally receives letters, so there is no need to worry about him."

"Chan'er didn't go out. She is the one who takes care of Peach Blossom Mountain."

"But during this period, she was also out visiting friends."

"And the fourth and fifth children, they were bored staying in Peach Blossom Mountain, so they ran away too."

When Yang Tianyou talked about the fourth and fifth children, there was obvious doting on his face.

When Xu Zhiqing heard Yang Tianyou talking about the fourth and fifth brothers, he felt a little emotional.

Even though they were put in solitary confinement, these two guys still chose to continue making babies.

He knew about the fourth brother, but he really didn't know about the fifth brother.

"I admire you, brother."

Xu Zhiqing let out a long sigh.

He turned and looked at his sister-in-law.

"Although the peach blossoms on Taohua Mountain are beautiful, I get bored of looking at them after a while. Why don't I go out and take a walk?"

Yao Ji said softly: "Since my brother wants to imprison me here, I don't want to embarrass him too much."

"That guy... never mind, I won't say any more. He is my brother after all."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xu Zhiqing.

"You...you should have appeared directly in Taohua Mountain, right?"

In Yao Ji's opinion, Xu Zhiqing probably doesn't know about the affairs of Huaguo Mountain.

She felt that with Xu Zhiqing's personality, if he knew the current appearance of the Flower-Fruit Mountain, he would definitely not be able to hold back and would rush over to kill them.

But Brother Xu now looks like an ordinary person, without any cultivation.

"No, I went back to Huaguo Mountain first."

Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou were shocked.

"Are there no Western religious people in Huaguo Mountain now?"

When Xu Zhiqing heard Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou asking about the present, he smiled and said, "Of course not."

Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou looked at each other.

The two men then thought that since they had stayed in Peach Blossom Mountain for so long, perhaps the Western religion had spared Huaguo Mountain.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's better if it's not. It's better if it's not."

As Yao Ji thought about this, she heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that the Western religion might not want to do anything to the Flower-Fruit Mountain.

However, she thought it would be better not to let the news that Brother Xu had walked out of the turbulence of time and space spread.

Apart from anything else, this brother once did something to make fun of the two saints.

Just this one incident alone will make Western religious people hate Xu Zhiqing forever.

Yao Ji was thinking in her heart, wondering how to keep Xu Zhiqing here for a while.

It would be best if you have some skills to protect yourself.

Yang Tianyou didn’t think too much about it. He was just curious about how Xu Zhiqing came from Huaguo Mountain?
However, he was afraid of touching upon Xu Zhiqing's sad past, so he refrained from asking.

Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou didn't talk about anything else with Xu Zhiqing. They just talked about things in Taohua Mountain.

Although the two of them did not leave Taohua Mountain, they still knew about the things happening around Taohua Mountain.

Many monsters were once cleared out near Yao Ji's home.

Here... there are many well-behaved monsters living.

Xu Zhiqing was also chatting with two people.

Not long after, he followed the two people to their cave.

It is said to be a confined place.

Xu Zhiqing took a look and couldn't see the confinement area.

This place is basically the heart of the mountains.

This place is quiet and elegant, with a green lotus pond embedded deep in the peach forest.

The lotus leaves in the pond are stacked like green umbrellas, and the pink and white lotus flowers are scattered and stretched out. Occasionally, a koi carp wags its tail and shuttles between the leaves, breaking up the sparkling waves.

There is a small bamboo and wooden pavilion by the pool, with a copper bell hanging from the eaves. When the wind blows, the sound of the bells harmonizes with the singing of birds in the woods.

Under the pavilion, Xu Zhiqing also caught a glimpse of a few fishing rods, which were obviously used by Yang Tianyou in his spare time.

There was a coarse pottery tea set on the stone table under the pavilion. Two cups of tea were emitting smoke, and a few peach petals fell into the cups, but were scattered by the splashes of water from the leaping fish in the pond.

The time here seems to be soaked in the fragrance of peaches, with only ripples in the lotus pond and the sound of bells.

After reading it, Xu Zhiqing felt a little more peaceful.

"Sister-in-law and brother, you two are truly living the life of a fairy couple."

He sighed quietly, which made Yao Ji and Yang Tianyou smile softly.

"Brother, if you want, you can move in and live with us."

"That's not necessary."

Xu Zhiqing shook his head and refused.

He didn't want to disturb the two people's fairy-like life.

"Brother, since you don't want to move here, you can live here for a while."

"We haven't seen each other for hundreds of years. If you leave again, I don't know how long it will take."

As soon as Yang Tianyou finished speaking, Yao Ji hurriedly followed.

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Brother, listen to your sister-in-law and stay here for a while, just to accompany your brother."

It's okay to stay here for a while.

Xu Zhiqing agreed immediately.

"Then I will stay here for a while."

Yang Tianyou and Yao Ji were very happy.

"I'll build you a small courtyard."

Yang Tianyou took off his long gown, rolled up his sleeves, and went to get the lumbering tools.

Xu Zhiqing saw Yang Tianyou's back as he hurriedly went to get the tools, but he did not stop him.

In fact, you can create a wooden house by simply casting a spell.

However, Xu Zhiqing swept around the lotus flowers in the pond, the small pavilion next to the pond, and the wooden house beside the pond.

These should all be made by Yang Tianyou and Yao Ji one by one.

Although the two people have magical powers, they are gods.

However, both of them did everything physically, and did not use any magic to do these things.

"Your brother might be too bored staying alone, and I don't know why he became obsessed with tinkering with things."

Yao Ji said this when she saw Xu Zhiqing looking at Yang Tianyou's back.

"It's good for a person to have hobbies and interests to kill time."

After Xu Zhiqing said this, he whispered, "I'll go help my brother!"

"No, no, just let him do it himself."

Yao Ji stopped Xu Zhiqing.

"Come on, let's go have some tea."

Yao Ji brought Xu Zhiqing to the small pavilion. She asked Xu Zhiqing to wait for a moment while she started to boil water.

"Brother, wait a moment!"

"I'm going to chop wood now."

Yang Tianyou changed into a short shirt and came out with an axe in his hand.

After he finished shouting, he went out to chop wood.

Not long after, Xu Zhiqing saw Yang Tianyou coming over with two pieces of wood, one on the left and one on the right.

Xu Zhiqing found that Yang Tianyou's forehead was covered with sweat and his face was red.

He sensed it carefully and found that Yang Tianyou had sealed his own magic power.

Yang Tianyou now is just an ordinary person with a strong physique.

Xu Zhiqing smiled. "Brother is really quite interesting."

"It's not bad to be a mortal without birth, aging, sickness and death."

Yao Ji smiled slightly.

"Birth is not something he or I can decide. Whether we are gods or mortals, we are living the life we ​​have now."

"No one knows what will happen in the future. Things in the world are unpredictable. Having a place to feel safe and secure is the best wish in my heart."

Yao Ji said as the tea started to boil.

She made tea for Xu Zhiqing.

"Brother, have some tea. This is the lotus leaf tea from the pond. It tastes delicious."

Xu Zhiqing picked up the teacup and took a sip.

A refreshing lotus scent fills the mouth, with a slightly sweet taste.

"It tastes good."

He took a few more sips.

"Your brother's favorite thing is to drink tea and fish."

"He worked on the fields outside, and after he had cultivated them, he planted some things."

“Besides tending to the fields, he would boil some water for tea here and go fishing with those fishing rods.”

Yao Ji pointed to the fishing rods under the pavilion.

Xu Zhiqing said with a smile: "Brother knows how to enjoy himself."

Yao Ji smiled.

"I don't know if you like it here."

Xu Zhiqing nodded.

"Of course I do."

"When I return, I will also build a place for leisure."

"I have a small island. It's quite big. I and your brothers and sisters will live on it."

When Yao Ji heard Xu Zhiqing talking about the island, she was a little surprised.

How come she didn’t know that Xu Zhiqing also had an island?
She thought that she lived on a small island, surrounded by sea water and no one would disturb her on weekdays.

It would be really great if we could set up some hidden magic arrays.

“It’s not bad to live on an island.”

Yang Tianyou, who was carrying wood, also heard it.

His eyes lit up.

"It's nice to live by the sea, and go sea fishing."

Xu Zhiqing smiled brightly.

Hundreds of years have passed, and the literati who were once full of poetry have now become fishermen who are obsessed with fishing.

"If you like, you can come to my place when the time comes."

After Xu Zhiqing finished speaking, he frowned.

If they are in the same world, the two can still communicate with each other.

What about across the world?

There should be a solution across the world, right?
Xu Zhiqing thought about it and realized that since he had the Hall of All Worlds on him, there should be a way to make the two communicate with each other.

Yao Ji, who was standing by, saw Xu Zhiqing suddenly frown while speaking.

She asked curiously, "What are you thinking, brother?"

Xu Zhiqing restrained his expression.

“Think of little things.”

He didn't say anything, but looked at Yang Tianyou's back and sighed again: "I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that brother has changed a lot."

"But I can feel that he is quite calm."

He looked so calm, as if he had just seen Yang Tianyou.

Yang Tianyou used to be a very stable person even though he was poor.

After becoming rich, he thought about taking care of the people around him and was only worried about the poverty of others.

Yao Ji didn't notice it.

"He is just like that!"

Xu Zhiqing joked: "Sister-in-law, you are really not satisfied."

Yao Ji chuckled and said, "I am quite satisfied with my current life."

Xu Zhiqing and Yao Ji were chatting and didn't pay attention to the time.

After he and Yao Ji finished their tea, they didn't really let Yang Tianyou work alone.

He also took an axe and went to cut wood.

He also did not use any magic power, but used his own strength to cut down trees.

He and Yang Tianyou quickly collected all the wood needed to build the wooden house.

The two men began to build a log cabin.

Yang Tianyou has construction experience, and so does Xu Zhiqing.

The two of them worked together to build the wooden structure in just one day.

"I'll get some more planks."

"I can make the wood very smooth."

Yang Tianyou took out his wood planing tools.

"It's true. If you don't focus on cultivation, it's really interesting to study some interesting things."

Xu Zhiqing laughed.

"Brother, you really have to say that. It's really interesting."

Yang Tianyou was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and laughed out loud.

"I mean it."

"Me too."

The two laughed heartily again.

"I'll show you how to use it. Even if you are at the immortal level, you may not be able to use it..."

Before Yang Tianyou could demonstrate, Xu Zhiqing took the plane directly from Yang Tianyou.

He came to a board and began to plane away the burrs on the edge.

Yang Tianyou widened his eyes.

"I developed this thing myself, how can you use it?"

"This should be the stuff outside, right?"

"Otherwise, why would the wooden house outside be so... smooth?"

Xu Zhiqing’s words made Yang Tianyou stunned for a moment, and then he scratched his head.

“I thought I figured it out.”

"I have always wondered how a mortal, without such powerful magic, could create a better life."

“So I thought about tools.”

Xu Zhiqing put down the wood plane in his hand.

He sighed and said, "Brother, you have such a heart, it would be a pity if you didn't become an emperor."

"That's not the case. Even if he became the emperor, he wouldn't have the same heart as me."

"Too."

"Hahaha."

The two laughed again.

"But if you want to talk about tools, you can gather the skills of others, and then everyone can brainstorm and research tools together."

Xu Zhiqing pointed at the birds flying in the sky.

"Tell me, can a mortal fly to the sky with the help of tools?"

His words made Yang Tianyou stunned.

He didn't say it was impossible.

He used to be a mortal, but now he has become an immortal.

If mortals can become immortals, then why can't they fly up with the help of tools?

"It's really possible. If humans also have wings, no, if they use some tools to replace wings, they can also fly in the sky."

"It's like a magic weapon, but a magic weapon must have magic. What if it's made without magic?"

Xu Zhiqing pointed at the falling peach blossoms.

"The wind can make things float."

"Brother, you can study things like wind, fire, water, and electricity." (End of this chapter)
