It was late to send them over. It was obvious that both of them had been deeply poisoned. Mother Chen was even more poisoned. There was probably no cure. Now, they could only do their best and leave it to fate!
Zhou Zhao hurriedly reached out his hand and took out the special snake medicine from the Purple Cloud Temple. The Purple Cloud Temple was backed by a huge mountain, and there were many snakes, insects, rats, and ants. In this aspect, it was more proficient than other diseases.
After giving the mother and daughter snake medicine, he cleaned their wounds. Immediately after, Zhou Zhao circulated his true qi to help them remove the poison.
As a Daoist cultivation technique, the Violet Cloud Divine Art was extremely effective in consolidating one's foundation, cultivating one's vitality, and dispelling poison. Zhou Zhao's attainments in the Violet Cloud Divine Art were now extremely deep. Under the effect of true energy and medicine, the two people's pale faces actually recovered a trace of blood qi visible to the naked eye.
After another 15 minutes, the girl suddenly turned her head and spat out a mouthful of stinky black blood. She fainted again. However, Zhou Zhao heaved a sigh of relief. This little girl could be considered to have overcome the difficulties and survived.
Immediately after, Zhou Zhao circulated his true energy to treat Mother Chen. Mother Chen, who was lying on the stretcher, finally coughed a few times. She opened her eyes with difficulty and looked at the surrounding villagers.
"Sister Yun, you're awake!"
"Chen Yun, how do you feel? Why are you guys so unlucky? You encountered a poisonous snake not long after you came up the mountain!”
"Are you alright, Aunt Yun? Look at us!!!”
When the villagers saw that the woman had woken up, they were all very excited and hurriedly asked.
The woman seemed to feel her life slipping away and raised her eyes with difficulty. The first person she looked at was Zhou Zhao, who was beside her, and her eyes were filled with inquiry.
"Auntie Chen, the snake venom attacked your heart. I've already tried my best.”
Zhou Zhao sighed softly.
"Thank you…Little…Little Ya, please…Daoist…"
The woman looked at the girl not far away and saw that her face was not as pale as before. It was very likely that she was saved. She could not help but tremble in excitement as she called out to Zhou Zhaocai.
But before Zhou Zhao could reply, the woman's breathing tightened and she fainted again. But this time, it was clearly impossible for her to wake up, because her breathing gradually weakened, and finally her heart stopped beating, completely devoid of breath.
"Bring him back to the temple. Uncle Qi, prepare a coffin!”
Zhou Zhao stood up and finished speaking to the crowd. He then turned to Old Qi who had followed him to the side and instructed him in a low voice.
"Sigh! Don't worry, I'll make the arrangements right away!”
When Old Qi saw that the woman had lost her life, he could not help but sigh softly. He listened to Zhou Zhao's instructions and brought a few young men to prepare the coffin.
At this moment, Zhou Zhao's thoughts were complicated. Even though he had killed thousands of people, this was the first patient to die in front of him.
Mortals would eventually be unable to escape death, and Zhou Zhao yearned even more to transcend the mortal world and prove the path of immortality.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye!
"Little Daoist, I brought some pastries over. Come and try them!”
Princess Gao Yang's people had yet to arrive when a clear voice had already entered Zhou Zhao's ears. Zhou Zhao had just finished washing up when he saw Princess Gao Yang dressed in a long white dress on the small mountain road. Her hair was tied up with a jade pearl hairpin on her head. She was riding a red and tall horse, and behind her were several maids who were also riding horses.
The maids followed Gao Yang's instructions and placed a cushion and a low table under the shade of the tree. They then brought out the pastries before retreating to the side to guard.
"Eat it quickly. I made it myself. Try it and see how it tastes.”
Princess Gao Yang's facial features were exquisite and her skin was sparkling. At this moment, she was smiling. When she saw Zhou Zhao picking up the pastry to taste, her almond-shaped eyes immediately curved into crescent moons.
"And Little Ya, come and try it too!”
Princess Gao Yang called out to the girl who was cleaning not far away. That's right, it was the little girl that Zhou Zhao had rescued that day. Ever since her mother was buried, she had come back to the Taoist temple and refused to leave.
Zhou Zhao could not expel her, so he allowed her to stay and do some chores. In fact, there were also female Daoist children in the Taoist temple. The so-called golden boys and jade girls, among which the jade girls were the female Taoist priests and the Kun Dao. However, there were very few who became Taoist priests from a young age.
In the history of Zhou Zhao's previous life, the famous female Taoist priests were Yu Xuanji and Sun Bu 'er.
Furthermore, not all Daoists could not marry. There was also the difference between Zheng Yi Sect and Quan Zhen Sect. The Righteous Sect appeared as early as the Qin and Han Dynasties. They relied heavily on talismans to summon gods and exorcise ghosts, and they were not afraid of marriage.
However, Quanzhen advocated the cultivation of both life and death, the cultivation of inner alchemy, selflessness and few desires, strict precepts, and no marriage. Quanzhen Sect was created by Wang Chongyang at the end of the Jin Dynasty.
However, in this Tang Empire world that seemed but was not, Quanzhen's cultivation method had long appeared, and the unwritten commandments were widely spread. That was why Princess Gao Yang had previously clamored for Zhou Zhao to return to asceticism and descend the mountain, because Zhou Zhao's purple clouds indeed looked like they were walking the path of Quanzhen.
Xiao Ya did not speak much and after thanking Gao Yang for his reward, she silently went back to sweep the floor.
"Do you want me to send you a few more girls to order around? Your Taoist temple is so deserted!”
Gao Yang's big watery eyes blinked as he stared at Zhou Zhao.
"That's not necessary!"
Zhou Zhao ignored Gao Yang's mocking expression.
"What's so good about your small Taoist temple? Why don't you come back to Chang 'an with me to have fun? I'll explain the situation to my father another day and ask him to allow us to do it!”
Hearing Gao Yang's words, Zhou Zhao's heart jumped. This world of the Great Tang was a world with true cultivators. The Tang Emperor might not be simple either. He did not want to attract the attention of these big shots now. It was more fragrant to be the Sword God of Ten Mile Slope. If he became a divine immortal, wouldn't it be wonderful to leave the mountain then?
Just as Zhou Zhao was about to respond to Gao Yang's words, suddenly, the sound of a galloping horse sounded out from the small mountain path. Not long after, several young geniuses dressed in embroidered clothes looked over from afar and the man in the lead shouted,"Princess Gao Yang!"
"Fang Yi 'ai, this annoying fellow is really here!”
Princess Gao Yang's pretty face immediately pulled him over.
"Fang Yi 'ai?"
Zhou Zhao's brows raised. Had the so-called big shot appeared?
