Chapter six hundred and fiftieth chapters bow to others
"What strange person?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.
"I don't know," Wu Qing sent Wu Zhongyuan's dragon robe to the bed, "The rumored guard is outside the door."
"Change the regular robe." Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand. Huangdi had two types of clothing, one was the dragon robe worn when he went to court. There was also a regular robe worn daily, which was more casual than the court robe. However, there was also a golden dragon embroidery. Wu Zhongyuan usually wore the second type, even when he went to court. The dragon robe was too grand, the shawl was too big, the color was too bright, and he also had to wear a flowing crown. It was inconvenient, and he didn't like it very much.
Wu Zhongyuan was dressed neatly and went out with a cloak. The rumored guards hurriedly saluted and reported that there were dozens of people wearing strange clothes outside the city who were asking for a visit.
The news was reported by the warriors guarding the city. The Imperial Guard was just a messenger. Wu Zhongyuan did not ask much. He walked with the Imperial Guard and left the harem, passed through the middle hall, went to the front hall, and then left the palace gate. At this time, the palace was reorganized by the Bear Clan Royal Palace and had almost not been expanded, but the area was still very large. It took more than ten minutes to walk from the harem to the palace gate.
The guards who could enter and exit the harem were all women, and after they left the palace, they were replaced by male guards. According to the etiquette, there should be nine guards accompanying Huangdi when he went out, but Wu Zhongyuan felt it was troublesome and only brought two people to the south gate with the rotating warriors who came to report.
Logically speaking, foreign tribes should be received by the Ministry of Rites, but although these people are under the banner of congratulations, their origins are unknown and there are many people. The warriors guarding the city dare not let them enter the city, so they will report to the top.
It was noon at this time, and the city gate was open. Wu Zhongyuan did not climb up to the city tower, but moved directly outside the gate and faced everyone.
There were thirty or forty people outside the city gate, but these people were not from the same group, but in groups of three or five, scattered in different areas outside the city. They were wearing various clothes, some wearing thick coats, and some wearing thin silk clothes, obviously from different regions.
Because of the close distance, Wu Zhongyuan could sense the situation of these people. These people are not human than humans. Their spiritual energy cultivation is mostly above purple energy. Five people have Taixu cultivation. A few of them are familiar with Wu Zhongyuan. It seems that they have seen them from Minshan not long ago.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan appear, the leaders hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. There were seven people who came up to greet him, five Taixu and two Taixuan, all of whom were older.
These people seemed not familiar with each other and rushed forward to greet each other. Wu Zhongyuan responded perfunctorily one by one, and after reporting their names, they would present gift lists to congratulate him on the Hunyuan tripod.
Everyone seemed to have no intention of delaying their stay. As long as they reported their names and presented gifts, they hurriedly said goodbye and left. Seven groups of people left in less than five minutes, leaving seven gifts, which were packed in boxes and boxes of different sizes and materials. Some of the seven gifts were just a small box, while others were large boxes.
The seven gift lists have different materials, some of which are more formal, some are cut from wooden boards, and some are strips of cloth torn off from clothes, which are obviously written in a hasty manner.
However, although the gift lists are different, they have one thing in common, that is, the name is written very large and conspicuously.
Seeing everyone coming and going in a hurry, Wu Zhongyuan was very confused. Why is this like burning his butt? Could it be that there are hidden weapons and firearms hidden in these boxes?
With doubts in his heart, he secretly used spiritual energy to guard against it. He opened several boxes, which contained strange gifts. A wooden box about a foot square was filled with boxes of beastly inner elixirs, and a large box five feet square was filled with a water tank. The water tank was filled with several strange-shaped aquatic animals, which looked a bit like a salamander, but were golden all over, and there were dragon whiskers on both cheeks.
Just when Wu Zhongyuan was secretly confused, a huge bird flew to the southeast. Wu Zhongyuan was moved and looked into the distance. He saw that it was a huge alien vulture. Two people were sitting on the back of the vulture. It was the old couple with worn clothes that he saw from Minshan not long ago.
The elderly couple was still far away. During the period when the vultures were approaching, Wu Zhongyuan looked at all the gifts. The gifts presented by everyone were varied, some were spiritual objects, some were animal inner alchemy, as well as exquisite jade and various treasures of heaven and earth. The source and function of the gift list were explained, but he had no time to read them carefully.
Soon, vultures flew closer, and the elderly couple came down from the vulture. The white-faced old woman was carrying the big pocket, while the yellow-faced old man's crutch was replaced with a thing wrapped in rags. This object has a long handle with a wide and flat end. Judging from its outline, it looks like a modern shovel, or to be precise, it is more like a wide wooden shovel for drying grain.
Before the vulture landed, the two saw Wu Zhongyuan standing outside the city gate. When the vulture landed, they came down from the vulture and squeezed out an unnatural smile on their faces.
As early as Wu Zhongyuan in Minshan, he knew that this elderly couple was alien, and not every elderly person had kind eyes. These two people had stingy eyes, especially the white-faced old woman, with small ears, broken eyebrows, three-black eyes, thin lips, high cheekbones, and nose bridges. She looked like a mean and arrogant person.
But as the saying goes, if you don’t hit a smiley person with a bad fist, the two of them laugh at themselves, and Wu Zhongyuan is not convenient to have a stern face. The two of them smile unnaturally, and he laughs unnaturally.
Soon, the two approached and raised their hands to Wu Zhongyuan to salute, honoring the name of the Golden Dragon and Huangdi.
Before Wu Zhongyuan could return the gift, the white-faced old woman glared at the old man fiercely. Seeing it, the latter hurriedly handed the thing wrapped in rag to Wu Zhongyuan.
Before the old man with yellow face spoke, the old woman with white face glanced at him again, snatched the things in the old man's hand, shook his hand and exerted force, shaking the rag wrapped around it.
After the rag was gone, the thing revealed its true appearance. It was not a wooden shovel, but a purple-red Qimen weapon with a handle four feet long and spacious ends, and it was in the shape of a lion's nose. There were one long, two short, three long sharp thorns on the ends, with sharpness hidden and restrained inspiration.
Although he had never seen this weapon, Wu Zhongyuan knew what this thing was, because he had seen something similar to it many times before. The so-called similarity refers to the feeling rather than the appearance. This thing is likely to be a lion dragon rake, one of the psychic divine weapons.
When it comes to rakes, many people will instinctively think of Zhu Bajie's nine-toothed rakes. In fact, the rakes in the weapons are completely different from those that produce feces. Their full name is Dan Palladium, which is a long weapon that is somewhat similar to the Fangtian Painting Ji, and is usually used for large-scale military combat.
The white-faced old woman presented the lion dragon rake with both hands, "Tell the Golden Dragon and Huangdi that the lion dragon rake was obtained by chance earlier. Although we knew that this thing was used by the Eighteen Assistant Master of the Human Emperor, we just didn't know who should be returned to it. This thing was returned to the original owner and we would collect the magical artifact of creation for the Golden Dragon and Huangdi."
"You two are intent." Wu Zhongyuan reached out to take it, concentrating his mind and perceived that the magical features of the spiritual divine weapon are not only invincible, but also replenishing spiritual energy for the master. Whether it can replenish spiritual energy is also one of the ways to distinguish the true or false. The facts prove that this thing is a lion dragon rake, and being able to replenish spiritual energy also shows that the Xuanwen Jinjian hidden in it is still there.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan say something lightly, the yellow-faced old man turned to look at the old woman. The old woman seemed to be unable to speak without looking at the old man. She first glanced at him dissatisfiedly, then grabbed a small pocket from the bag and handed it to Wu Zhongyuan again, "We have lived in seclusion in the West Tu Lily Valley for many years. We have obtained these fire lily inner elixirs for hundreds of years. We can carry them with us to avoid hundreds of poisons and donate the golden dragon and Huangdi."
"If you don't have any merit, how can you get the reward?" Wu Zhongyuan waved his hands repeatedly.
The white-faced old woman tried hard to squeeze out a friendly and kind smile, "The Golden Dragon and Yellow Emperor ruled the human race and were in power. It is the honor of our couple to be able to receive our gifts and tributes."
The white-faced old woman smiled and Wu Zhongyuan's scalp was numb. Wu Zhongyuan was covered in goosebumps and was about to politely decline, but the white-faced old woman had already stuffed the bag of things into his hands, "This is our wish, don't refuse."
"What are you doing," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head helplessly, "Do you have something to ask me for help?"
The old man with yellow face smiled and said, "Golden Dragon and Yellow Emperor, we have nothing else to do, we are about to die, and we want to borrow your alchemy to refine..."
Before the old man with yellow face finished speaking, the old woman viciously pushed it, then hurriedly said goodbye to Wu Zhongyuan, and pulled the old man with yellow face to walk quickly, and no matter how Wu Zhongyuan tried to keep him, she ignored it and rode on the vulture and headed west.
Wu Zhongyuan was originally wondering why these people gave him gifts, but then he finally understood that these people were all aimed at the Hunyuan Ding. Even the old couple knew the magic of the Hunyuan Ding. They thought they would not steal and rob them, so they had to come and show their goodwill. The reason why they did not explain the purpose of the visit and came and went in a hurry was because they were worried that he would return the gift.
As long as he receives the gift and they come to ask for it again the next day, he will be embarrassed to refuse, at least not as straightforward as he refuses.
If Wu Zhongyuan just borrowed the alchemy tripod, he would not be stingy, but he did not know the background of these people, nor did he know whether they were good or bad. Hunyuan tripod can not only temper the ninth level of Tiange, but also melt other pills. It is so magical, how can you borrow others easily? Don’t say that you have to take it away, even if you have a bear, you will not agree to use it under his supervision.
There is a modern saying that dogs don’t bite and give gifts, but sometimes receiving gifts is not a pleasant thing, especially knowing that the other party has something to ask for.
If you think about it carefully, it is more likely that these people want to borrow a elixir or temper a qi-enhancing pill, because unlike the ninth level of the earth element, the ninth level of the heaven element can prolong their lifespan. The reason why these people are very eye-catching is that they rarely appear on weekdays, and aliens are not very interested in power. They are interested in immortality. In order to live for immortality, they will do anything.
If you want to melt high-level elixirs, you must first have enough raw materials. The reason why these gift-givers did not make any requests at this time is probably because they lacked enough raw materials. In order to obtain animal inner elixirs and various spiritual objects that can temper elixirs, they will do everything they can.
