Black Myth: Journey to the West – Simulate Becoming Immortal!

"Who is it?"

Chen Xi reacted instantly and looked over.

But he looked left and right, and there was no human figure.

Chen Xi's mind moved when he saw this, and he came to the place where the sound just came from in an instant.

That was a branch of the peach tree...

Chen Xi stepped on it and glanced over it.

Soon, he found the clue.

On the withered and twisted branches of the peach tree, three peach flowers bloomed.

There were three fruits inside, which were about to mature.

These two peaches were as big as a basin. Although they still looked green, they were not impossible to pick.

Of course, if it was just like this, it would not be enough to attract Chen Xi.

"How come these peaches...look like this?"

Chen Xi's eyebrows jumped and he moved closer to take a closer look.

But he saw that the two peaches actually had human faces!

One is shaped like an old man, and the other is shaped like an old woman.

Their expressions are horrified, which makes people feel cold.

"It's actually alive?"

Chen Xi's telepathy moved, and he actually felt the existence of spirits from these two human-faced peaches.

For a moment, his face suddenly became gloomy.

At this moment, he knew that these two human-faced peaches were once living people.

But now they have been cultivated into peaches on the tree by Chen Long, using some evil method.

The soul is trapped in the peaches, and it cannot be freed from generation to generation, and can only remain in fear, loneliness, and pain for a long time.

This is similar to the experience of the Well Dragon King before.

You must know that the Well Dragon King is not a mortal after all, but even so, he couldn't bear this kind of pain in the end, and his mind was worn out by the pain.

Judging from the aura of their spirits, the people who turned into these two peaches should be just two mortals.

Chen Long actually let two mortals endure this kind of pain. What kind of hatred and resentment is this?

It is not an exaggeration to say that he has lost all conscience.

Chen Xi took a deep breath and tried to calm his anger.

At the same time, the two peaches seemed to feel something.

"Saint..."

"Monk..."

Faint shouts came from the peaches.

Chen Xi saw this and hurriedly put his ears to listen.

But no matter how he listened, he could not hear the voice of the peaches clearly.

Chen Xi frowned and his mind moved.

He was telepathic!

In a moment, Chen Xi felt the...heart of these two peaches.

The two peaches became excited, and fragmented voices were transmitted to Chen Xi's mind.

"Saint monk, you are back..."

"Kill us, please kill us..."

No desire to live, only to die!

"Who are you?"

Chen Xi was silent for a long time, and then he used his telepathy to pass on his doubts.

The two peaches kept asking for death, and their voices were mostly useless nonsense.

But there were still some sporadic voices, which allowed Chen Xi to gradually figure out the ins and outs of the matter...

It turned out that the two peaches trapped the poor people, who were actually the king and queen of Chechi Kingdom in the past!

That's right, it was the king of Chechi Kingdom who respected Taoism and demoted monks to slaves.

In the past, Chechi Kingdom fought against each other, and the three great immortals, Hu Li, Lu Li, and Yang Li, were defeated by the man of destiny.

Since the man of destiny left, Chechi Kingdom changed from respecting Taoism to respecting Buddhism.

But the good times didn't last long...

Perhaps because it had offended Buddhism before, Chechi Kingdom was punished by heaven.

Since then, Chechi Kingdom has never had a drop of rain.

When the national master was still there, it was still possible to pray for rain.

But now that the national master is dead, the Buddhist monks are only interested in making money and are unwilling to serve the king who once enslaved them. Even if the monks were forcibly captured to chant sutras and pray for blessings, it would be useless.

For a while, Chechi Kingdom was full of starving people and the people were living in misery.

At this time, an old dragon descended from the sky!

The old dragon claimed to be the god of heaven, the twelve Yuanchen, the six Dings and six Jias.

If the king could agree to its request, it would bring rain to Chechi Kingdom.

The old dragon asked them to rebuild a Taoist temple and bring back the statues of the Three Pure Ones that were still in the place where the five grains were reincarnated.

Kill those useless monks and use their flesh and blood to offer sacrifices to the sky.

The king and the queen were desperate and could only trust the old dragon.

The king was already resentful of these monks who did nothing.

Now that he had an outlet to vent his anger, he naturally worked hard.

All of a sudden, all the monks in Chechi were killed, and the temple was demolished and turned into a Taoist temple.

The king and queen, in accordance with the old dragon's wishes, personally went to the place where the five grains were reincarnated and asked for the statues of the Three Pure Ones.

However, because of years of immersion in filth, the statues of the Three Pure Ones were no longer acceptable.

The king had proposed to reshape the statues of the Three Pure Ones.

However, the old dragon disagreed, and instead said with a smile that this was fine.

Since the statues of the Three Pure Ones were taken back, the Sanqing Temple was also renamed the Sanzhuo Temple.

It finally began to rain in Chechi, and the people were able to live in peace.

However, such a good day did not last long, and the old dragon came again.

The old dragon got straight to the point and asked the king and queen if they wanted to live forever?

At this time, the king and queen were already very old and had little life left.

Facing the old dragon's temptation of longevity, how could they resist?

The king immediately waved his hand and told the old dragon to do whatever he wanted. He could do anything to achieve immortality.

So, the original palace garden was changed into a herb garden.

The old dragon planted a walnut and watered it with human blood day and night.

At first, it was just some human blood. There were so many refugees in Chechi Country, so it would not be a big deal if a few were missing.

But later on, the old dragon's appetite grew bigger and bigger.

From human blood to human flesh, and then to the need for living people as fertilizer.

At that time, everyone in Chechi Country was in danger, saying that the king was bewitched by the demons and became a traitor who helped the tyrant.

And the fact is indeed so...

I don't know when, the king and queen, who originally cared about the people, began to do whatever it takes to achieve immortality.

Whenever the old dragon asked, they would respond.

In just one year, the number of people who died in Baicao Garden could be piled up into a mountain.

But the old dragon seemed to have no intention of stopping, and was still asking for more.

The king and queen could not bear it and gradually realized that something was wrong.

But at this time, the old dragon seemed to know what they were thinking, and came to the door again, saying that the fairy peach would be ripe soon.

The king and queen were overwhelmed by the good news, and immediately decided to hold a fairy banquet!

That day, the immortal master of Sanzhuo Temple held a banquet, setting out a table of delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and fine wine.

The whole court was full of civil and military officials, singing and dancing.

The king and queen were smiling happily.

However, what no one expected was that it was all a scam from beginning to end.

And this banquet for ascension to immortality was actually their ascension banquet.

They toasted each other and toasted each other.

When the king and queen woke up from their drunkenness, Chechi Kingdom had already changed.

The whole court was reduced to rapeseed in the field, and the people were reduced to meat paste and soil.

And they, with the dream of immortality, turned into the bloody "Peach".

The fruit on the tree is the king and queen.

The soil under the tree is the officials and the people.

A peach tree is Chechi Kingdom...
