37 Chapter 36 - Not a Single Worry-Free One_1
"Eldest Senior Sister appears calm on the surface, but her mood swings unpredictably. The only thing is, she doesn't show it on her face. There's a saying, 'Keeping company with the king is like keeping company with a tiger.' Well, accompanying her is like taming an old tiger!"
"She's indeed a rarely seen beauty, perhaps the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. But as the saying goes, you can know a person's face but not her heart. Can you imagine, she makes me eat large quantities of beasts' limbs and the corpses of spiritual herbs every meal? In the dead of night, she even makes me soak in water filled with herbal corpses, claiming it can strengthen my body!"
"Once I wanted to learn a space-related divine ability for convenience in future travels, but she taught me how to shrink instead, holding me in the palm of her hand, toying with me between her applause!"
Lu Yang insightfully slanders Yun Zhi's various abuses, quickly winning the sympathy of the Little Medicinal Kings.
The Ginseng Doll couldn't help but propose: "If that's the case, let's partner together. You work from the inside, we shall assist from the outside, and we can rebel against this major demon right now!"
Lu Yang was startled and hurriedly dissuaded them: "By no means! We need to plan this out in the long term. Eldest Senior Sister is the top disciple of Seek Dao Sect, her cultivation level is unfathomable. We might be overpowered if we just rely on the few of us."
He analyzed calmly: "For caution's sake, let's wait until I cultivate to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, this way, our odds of success will be greater. Then, we could act together to counterattack Eldest Senior Sister and succeed in one fell swoop!"
"At that time, you can take revenge for all the grudges you hold, wouldn't that be nice?"
The Little Medicinal Kings felt that as expected of a human, they think thoroughly: "I originally thought your intelligence was slightly inferior to ours. I didn't expect that you would come up with such a detailed plan. It seems like your intelligence is matching mine!"
With a shared enemy, Lu Yang and the Little Medicinal Kings quickly bonded, screaming and yelling their plans to attack the major demoness.
With the addition of Lu Yang, the Little Medicinal Kings literally added wings to a tiger, and victory seemed as if it was within arm's reach, a piece of cake!
At the entrance of the medicinal garden, Uncle Ba sighed deeply as he watched Lu Yang's inspiring plans unfold through the water mirror.
Yun Zhi specifically reminded him to keep an eye on Lu Yang's movements and prevent any accidents from happening in the medicinal garden. If anything unexpected happens, he should inform her immediately.
Given the current situation, would it count as an accident?
If he does tell Yun Zhi now, even if it's not an accident, it might end up causing one.
"Why can't youngsters these days have better peace of mind?"
...
"After all the talk so far, I haven't shown you the magic skills I can perform." Lu Yang warmed up his body and cast the "Shrinking Ground Into Inches" magic skill. He took a position like a diver and jumped directly into the ground.
The Enlightenment Tree King and Yun Zhi had a similar reaction, they were amazed. It had been alive for so long but had never seen such magic skills before.
On the surface, it seems to be a space-related magic skill like "Shrinking Ground Into Inches", but when it comes to practicality, it also seems to be an elemental magic skill.
To be able to perform a never-before-seen magic skill at such a young age, he's really a genius in magic skills.
Now Lu Yang performs "Shrinking Ground Into Inches" proficiently. He can do freestyle, breaststroke, butterfly, and backstroke swimming. Looking at him occasionally drilling out of the ground and smoothly drilling back, it is really easy to get the misconception that the ground is water.
The Kirin Immortality Medicine and the Time Termination Flower have finished their fight. The Ginseng Doll and the Three-Leafed Star Grass narrated Lu Yang's tragic encounter under the claws of the major demoness, which resonated with them, stirring them up.
"Finally, we, the Medicinal Kings, have got an undercover in the human race!"
The little Medicinal Kings sat on the trunk of the Enlightenment Tree King, applauding one by one, thinking that Lu Yang is very powerful.
Lu Yang let out a strange cry, sprang up high with his legs, spread his arms out in a cross shape, rotated 360 degrees in the air, and with a grunt, he planted himself face-first into the ground — he had turned dizzy in mid-air.
Failed to be cool.
The little Medicinal Kings hurriedly scrambled to lift Lu Yang up.
This kind of injury to a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage is just a superficial wound which will soon heal.
Seeing Lu Yang performing the "Shrinking Ground Into Inches" magic skill, they bring out the medicinal garden map and let Lu Yang dig according to the sequence.
"The roots of these herbs are very deep, they can stretch to three meters in the soil layer, so you have to be careful not to touch their roots, lest we misunderstand you. My suggestion is that it's best to dig the soil between three to five meters underground, this is the safety zone."
"The roots of the herbs in other areas are between half a meter to two meters, so you can dig below two meters."
Lu Yang was curious: "What will happen if the roots are touched?"
The Ginseng Doll seriously said: "We will think you have a foot fetish."
"???"
The Time Termination Flower interrupted: "Your human race has many perverts who love to peel and eat the 'feet' of our plants with alcohol, saying it's delicious and a great accompaniment for alcohol, hence they even cultivate them on a large scale."
"What plant are you referring to?"
"Peanuts." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lu Yang couldn't quite follow the thinking of the little Medicinal Kings.
Luckily, he didn't dwell too much on this issue and started to dig according to the route provided by the Ginseng Doll.
The Ginseng Doll found it amusing to watch a human dig, so he ran to Lu Yang's back and closely followed him.
The little Medicinal Kings naturally have the ability to tunnel underground, but their method of merging with the ground is quite different from Lu Yang's way of squeezing through the ground.
The ground where Lu Yang had gone through was loose, which was just right for the little Medicinal Kings.
Watching the Little Medicinal Kings enjoying themselves, the Enlightenment Tree King sighed. Trees can't tunnel underground.
It looked at the sun in the sky again, felt annoyed by the intense heat, and sighed again: "Why did I grow so tall? I don't even have a shade."
The Enlightenment Tree King felt the world was full of malice toward it.
After playing behind Lu Yang's rear for a whole day, the little Medicinal Kings were all frolicking on their way back, chuckling and laughing: "Let's prepare some hot water for a bath!"
The Enlightenment Tree King had already prepared a wooden barrel full of water, fetched from the stream used for watering the herbs.
A beam of light emerged from the belly of the Kirin Immortality Medicine, slowly moved upwards, and finally shifted to its mouth, where it sprayed out the Kirin True Fire.
The Kirin Immortality Medicine looked like a real Kirin; no wonder ancient people insisted they saw a Kirin when they saw it.
With the extremely high temperature of the Kirin True Fire, the water in the blink of an eye was boiling and bubbling.
The little Medicinal Kings jumped into the tub one by one, closed their eyes, and floated on the water's surface.
Lu Yang felt a sense of familiarity from the scene, as if he had seen a similar sight somewhere in the kitchen.
He remembered now, this is called Medicinal Food.
But it was the first time he had seen the ingredients voluntarily jumping into the pot.
In a short while, the smell of herbs filled the air, Lu Yang took a deep breath, instantly feeling energetic, and his cultivation level felt like it was about to grow.
"It's really worthy of being a Medicinal King, the medicinal power is incredibly strong."
Lu Yang looked at the frolicking little Medicinal Kings in the water, showing a wry smile.
He remembered his Eldest Senior Sister saying, immortality is a poison, a pain that non-humans can't endure, only those with extraordinary characters can bear the pain of eternal life.
The little Medicinal Kings had witnessed countless historical events through the endless passing of time. Those historical famous figures and events have all vanished, only the little Medicinal Kings are still alive.
Perhaps only with a childlike character, the little Medicinal Kings are able to live for such a long time without collapsing.
It's just too easy to be deceived.
