I've never felt happy to become an immortal.

Chapter 228 The Wind and Thunder God Gate Appears with a Deity

A loving mother's sword cleaves her wandering son's body.

Bai Xuan's abrupt remark almost sent the old lady to her death on the spot.

Fortunately, Shangguan Ying had a strong mentality. She glared at Bai Xuan and said, "Grandma is in good health and not sick."

She has a full physical examination every year, so she definitely doesn't have any illnesses.

Bai Xuan thought for a moment and then asked, "What about minor ailments, for example?"

“As you get older, backaches and pains are inevitable.” Shangguan Ying took off her glasses. “So, what exactly do you want to ask?”

Bai Xuan wasn't quite sure, but he didn't dare to ask too many questions. After thinking for a moment, he went up to ask the others.

The beautiful mom is washing up.

He walked to Hanekawa Chinatsu's door, knocked, and a voice from inside said, "Come in."

Bai Xuan pushed open the door and entered.

Immediately, you can see a nice back facing away from him.

She was changing clothes, her back smooth and supple, her skin fair and rosy...

It would be a shame not to get cupping done and get a tattoo to symbolize loyalty to the country.

Bai Xuan looked away: "Why aren't you wearing any clothes?"

"Aren't you putting it on right now?"

"Then you should have said so."

"So what? It's not like we haven't seen it before."

Hanekawa Chinatsu deliberately slowed down her dressing process, sat on the edge of the bed, bent down, put on black stockings, and pulled them up. Even without looking, the sound alone was enough to evoke endless fantasies. She released her fingers, and the stockings fell onto her healthy, rounded thighs.

She deliberately wore tight-fitting stockings.

The edge of the stockings left a slight indentation on the fleshy thigh.

Black silk binding the flesh, even a god couldn't save it.

She wrapped her arms around the back of her neck, letting her long hair spill out from under her clothes. Her thick, smooth black hair cascaded down, and the air was filled with the scent of cherry blossoms and rosemary.

"Besides, I control my diet and exercise regularly. There's nothing to be ashamed of about my body; on the contrary, I'm proud of it."

Bai Xuan grabbed her coat and quickly put it on her, then buttoned it up.

"I came to ask you how Grandma's health is?"

“She is very healthy. She had a check-up a month ago, and the doctor said she is healthier than her attending physician himself.”

Japan's medical methods are indeed very advanced. Leaving aside treatment, there are certainly a variety of ways to detect problems in advance.

Bai Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm talking about the kind of hidden illness that might not flare up on a regular basis."

"Um..." Chinatsu Hanekawa thought for a moment and asked, "Does being allergic to certain things count?"

What are you allergic to?

“Some plants, tree powder, but the situation isn’t too serious,” Chinatsu Hanekawa replied.

What about cherry blossoms?

"The old lady probably isn't allergic to pollen, she often takes care of flowers back in her hometown."

“But cherry blossoms are a different story.” Bai Xuan stroked his chin. “Even when she came to Japan, she never saw cherry blossoms once.”

Hanekawa Chinatsu also reached out to help Bai Xuan straighten his collar, her movements very practiced, like a wife who had lived with him for over ten years: "Well, I'm not sure either, how about I go find some cherry blossoms to try?"

Bai Xuan thought for a moment and said, "That's fine too."

He turned and walked out the door, while simultaneously searching through his storage ring and finding a pill and a precious herb that was about a hundred years old.

Their function is simple: to strengthen the body's foundation and nourish its vital energy. Their medicinal effects are quite mild, mainly for nourishing the body and restoring its vitality. Even ordinary people can prolong their lives by taking them.

He planned to secretly mix this into the other three people's lunch so they could take it together.

Their bodies might not be able to handle it if taken alone.

"Son, come here."

Then another voice was heard.

Bai Xuan leaned closer: "What's wrong?"

In front of the makeup mirror, Ren Qinglan touched her face: "Do I look younger? The crow's feet at the corners of my eyes, the wrinkles on my neck, and my collarbone... I had them when I was twenty, but they disappeared when my skin loosened up at thirty."

Bai Xuan thought to himself that it must be the pearl that had worked. It contained pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and its beauty-enhancing effect was indeed outstanding, enough to drive any woman crazy. Who could refuse to return to their youth?
In the world of true cultivation, which powerful female cultivator doesn't know how to maintain her beauty? Master Jingxuan is the same age as the shopkeeper, and looks to be in her early forties. Her skin is like that of a young girl, showing almost no signs of aging. With a little makeup, she can look as youthful as Yakumo Yukari.

Bai Xuan also offered a few words of praise, which put Ren Qinglan in a great mood.

After she went downstairs, she saw Hanekawa Chinatsu, who was also radiant. She glanced at the old lady, who seemed to have grown some black hair, and was initially surprised. Then she quickly realized what was going on and asked Bai Xuan, "How many of your pearls are left?"

"I used one-fifth of it yesterday."

Bai Xuan answered truthfully.

"Can you find a supplier?"

Bai Xuan thought to himself, "As expected of a businessman, but he really had no interest in being a middleman between the two worlds," so he shook his head and said, "Of course there won't be any rare items."

Ren Qinglan touched her smooth cheek: "If we can get the supply channels, or further study its internal nutritional components, we can easily create a business myth worth tens of billions."

There's no need to go through all that trouble.

By handing oneself over to the state, one can immediately become an honored guest, dining directly in the sea and even being allowed to eat first.

Bai Xuan brushed it off with a few simple words, and the three of them sat around the table to eat breakfast.

After breakfast, since we've come all the way to Japan, we'll definitely go out for a stroll and visit some local attractions.

Ren Qinglan tossed the keys to Bai Xuan: "Can you open it?" "Yes."

Bai Xuan has never learned to drive, but his driving skills are absolutely top-notch.

He learned to drive a chariot back in the Spring and Autumn Period.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, bronze chariots were used in major battles. They were extremely difficult to control, and only strong individuals with extraordinary physical strength could operate them alone.

Furthermore, there was a tradition of "fighting generals" during the Spring and Autumn Period. The fighting generals described in Romance of the Three Kingdoms never appeared during the Three Kingdoms period, but rather during the Spring and Autumn Period, and it basically disappeared during the Qin and Han Dynasties.

This duel is different from what is described in novels and historical fiction. It is not a battle between two fierce men on horseback, with earth-shattering fighting, ghosts crying and gods howling, the wind and clouds changing color, and even the Great Dao being obliterated. Instead, it is a very simple and unadorned exchange of arrows. Basically, it is a battle between two fierce generals who send out bronze chariots to shoot at each other.

Bai Xuan lost several lives in duels, but later he learned to drive the bronze chariot. In the next thirty-seven duels, he was at his peak. However, because of this, he became too sharp and was suspected by the king at the time, and then he was sent away with a cup of poison.

If the world of True Cultivation were to develop into a modern society and an Eastern version of the Holy Grail War were to emerge, when Bai Xuan's warrior-type persona is summoned, he would be either a Rider or a Lancer, and would definitely come with a passive skill that grants him an A+ in riding ability.

It can be said that Bai Xuan considers himself to be no less skilled than the driving god of Gaolianghe.

As for the handling of modern vehicles, it has been simplified and is no longer a problem.

In fact, because it's an automatic transmission, it actually reduces the driving pleasure.

This car is an imported vehicle made in China. It has excellent intelligent features, and the price is also quite high.

Bai Xuan actually wanted to visit the Tokyo Skytree as his first stop.

However, the old lady was afraid of heights, so she changed her plans and went to Senso-ji Temple instead.

Senso-ji Temple is a relatively famous tourist attraction. There are many stalls set up in front of the temple, just like the night market at Confucius Temple in Nanjing, and a large crowd of people gathers around.

It was early April, the peak season for cherry blossoms and a time of great tourist activity, with visitors from all over the world... though most of them were from China.

The main gate of Senso-ji Temple is called Kaminarimon (Thunder Gate), and the wind god and thunder god guard the gate on the left and right.

To prevent tourists from touching the statue of the Wind and Thunder God, a fence has been erected to separate it from the rest of the statue.

Although it was a last resort, Bai Xuan found it both ridiculous and laughable. They were supposed to be two gods, but they looked like prisoners locked in an iron cage. At this moment, they should play the song "Iron Gate, Iron Window, Iron Chains".

Bai Xuan didn't have much respect for so-called gods and Buddhas, since he had never actually seen them.

Even though Bai Wuwei always said that he was a child raised by the City God, he never called the City God "Grandpa" because the City God didn't treat him like a grandson at all.

I only walked past Kaminarimon while sightseeing.

Bai Xuan suddenly felt two gazes.

One left and one right.

He looked in the direction of the gaze, his eyes landing on the statue of Thor, and then on the statue of Wind God.

Were those two just looking at themselves?

The two statues remained motionless.

Bai Xuan released his spiritual power, which spread out like a ripple, instantly sweeping across an area of ​​hundreds of meters.

He immediately sensed something.

A faint smile of interest appeared on his face.

"Really?"

He traveled around the country and actually visited many places.

Whether it's a thriving temple or a famous historical site, one has never felt any trace of any deity left in the mountains and rivers.

But it's different here.

He clearly sensed the gaze immediately after releasing his mental energy.

Many pairs of eyes.

After all, Senso-ji Temple enshrines not only the wind god and thunder god, but also the holy Kannon Bodhisattva in its main hall.

Could it be that some deity or Buddha actually resides here?

Then I must come and offer my respects properly.

I just don't know if they can withstand it.

Bai Xuan took a step towards the Thunder Gate and immediately felt two pressures coming from the left and right, like two hands pushing on his shoulders.

but……

That's far too light a force.

Is she being coquettish?
Bai Xuan was positioned in front of the door.

"What's wrong?" Chinatsu Hanekawa asked. "Are you feeling unwell?"

"nothing."

Bai Xuan took a step forward and crossed the threshold. The two resistances on his shoulders were broken by his mental power: "It felt like someone tapped me on the shoulder."

He patted the dust off his shoulder: "The residents of this temple seem to be a bit too enthusiastic, maybe they've eaten too many red beans."

Just then, a cry of surprise came from outside the door.

"Oh dear, why are the statues of the wind god and the thunder god cracked?"

A sharp-eyed Chinese person exclaimed, "Look at their hands, they're all cracked!"

The arms of the two statues on the left and right split open simultaneously, eliciting gasps of surprise.

The first reaction of the crowd was to take out their phones, take a picture, and post a video.

This is a national-level cultural relic, enough to make it onto trending topics.

Bai Xuan ignored the question and walked towards the main hall.
