Langwan had planted that flower in the Primordial Essence Pool, and it had actually survived to this day.
Shen Mu laughed heartily. "Langwan's gift is also quite unique.
.
.
yes, quite unique. " Ling Yuxiu said with a half-smile, "Mu Yingxue the Poison Master sent her family's geographical map.
" Shen Mu said hastily, "Careful, it might be poisoned! Better burn it right away! " "He Yiyi the Formation Master sent a White Horse painting, with you and her riding on the same horse. It's painted very well, no wonder, after studying under Deaf Grandpa for two years.
" "There's a killing formation hidden inside.
Burn it!
" "The Supreme Emperor White Sword God sent you a set of puppets.
" Ling Yuxiu rummaged around, and saw that the puppet was a box with four legs.
Opening the box, inside were two little figures back to back. She was just about to take the figures out for a closer look when Shen Mu suddenly exclaimed in delight, "Grandpa Alchemist sent us a set of dual cultivation techniques!
Wife, come quickly!
" Ling Yuxiu shut the box, leaned in to look, spat, and said with a flushed face, "Grandpa Alchemist is a rogue, an old lecher!
" "Taichu sent me a dragon scale. " Shen Mu found the dragon scale, studied it for a moment, and smiled.
"Qinglong, Eastern Emperor, how have you been? Taichu must have sent this dragon scale because Qinglong once told him that I owed Qinglong a favor when I resurrected the Heavenly Duke.
This dragon scale is an interesting gift, interesting indeed. .
.
" His eyes flickered. "Taichu suspects I haven't truly retired, and so he's using this dragon scale to test me. If I resurrect Qinglong, Eastern Emperor, then I haven't truly retired, and still harbor grand ambitions. He's still wary of me!
" He put the dragon scale away without resurrecting Qinglong, Eastern Emperor. "The Ten Zun are the Ten Zun. Taichu and Hao Tianzun are birds of a feather. Resurrecting Qinglong can wait for the future!
" "Emperor Hao also sent quite a few treasures. " Ling Yuxiu clicked her tongue in wonder. "He's generous enough.
The Heavenly Duke sent gifts too, in the name of both Tubo and the Heavenly Duke.
" "He's urging me to resurrect Achou Tubo. " Shen Mu quietly put away the box puppet Bai Quer had sent, then visualized puppets of himself and Ling Yuxiu and placed them in its spot.
"He can't urge me directly, so he's using gifts to remind me.
" "Long Pang sent a set of the Classic of Raising Humans! " Ling Yuxiu burst out laughing. "And it's the new edition.
Long Pang is thoughtful after all.
This must be for me! " With that, she shot Shen Mu a glance.
Shen Mu gave a ha-ha and turned his head away, his expression dark.
"Taishi sent a gift too, a small piece of eggshell.
" Ling Yuxiu said doubtfully, "What's he sending an eggshell for. .
.
Senior Brother Wei sent a pile of geographical maps. Do you want to look?
" . . .
The couple sorted through everything, and at last finished reviewing the guests' gifts.
What should be kept was kept; what should not was sent straight to the Jingping treasury or sold off. By mid-morning, the couple went to pay their respects to his parents and the Eight Elders of Yincan Village. Granny Zhu had prepared several cows for Shen Mu. His heart tightened, and he quietly looked over at the cows, only relaxing when he saw that they really were cows.
"Shen boy, let's go back to the village! " the Blind Elder said with a smile. At Yongjiang, in Yincan Village, the Crested Fire Pheasant Dragons had long since taken over the place and become the local tyrants.
Everyone intended to clean things up and drive the Crested Fire Pheasant Dragons away, but Shen Mu laughed. "No need.
