Heaven

When Mo opened his eyes for the first time, he saw three men.

A kind old man with a face full of kindness, and a middle-aged man with an imposing appearance.There is another person... Mo's eyes widened, it was a man who was extremely beautiful!He was dressed in white clothes like a heavenly being, and the tenderness in his eyes instantly filled Mo's heart with joy and satisfaction.

"I am your father and king."

The man's voice was as clear as spring water. He pointed to the other two happy men beside him: "This is your starling and ninth brother."

Talking solemnly to a newborn baby, this somewhat weird behavior, is extremely natural for this man.

The little baby wrapped in the softest fur froze for a moment, opened its mouth, and uttered a few broken syllables.When he understood that it was difficult for him to speak, he nodded to the three of them as a greeting.

"The tenth brother is so cute, such a small one can even nod and say hello." The middle-aged man praised exaggeratedly.

The old man on the side showed a helpless smile: "Isn't it the same when you were born? The son of heaven and man has self-awareness from the moment he was born, and he can understand other people's words."

"Really?" The middle-aged man scratched his scalp, "It happened more than 40 years ago, and I have forgotten it!"

"Xiao Shi, your mother named you Mo, you have to keep it in mind." The handsome man who looked to be only in his twenties reminded him with a smile.

Mo turned his short neck to look around, but he didn't see the fourth person in this empty palace, so he couldn't help showing a puzzled expression.

"Your mother... She still has government affairs to deal with, and she will come to see you when she is free." A strange color flashed across the man's brows, but he quickly covered it up, "She is the commonwealth of the world." Lord, the queen of heaven and man, you must call her Queen Mother."

The little baby nodded with a vague understanding.

Mo grew up in a gorgeous palace.People called the palace where the Queen lived as the Heavenly God Palace, but he knew that the real Heavenly God Palace was located elsewhere, not in Yule's Liaodu.

His father doted on him very much, even to the point of spoiling him.Apart from dealing with matters, he spent almost all his free time with his youngest son.So much so that Mo's two brothers joked that because he was the cutest among the ten brothers, he took the most love from his father.

However, Nine Brothers once secretly told Mo that even though the sons of heaven and man had almost no so-called childhood, that unbelievably beautiful man insisted on taking care of his son meticulously until they reached the age of mortals to grow up.

Mo has a total of nine elder brothers, seven of whom have passed away.Although they are the sons of heaven and man, their lifespan is only comparable to that of ordinary people, and they have already turned into dry bones in the long years.

Speaking of which, the father is over four hundred years old!

The secret of King Bai's immortality is almost a taboo in Jae Yu.Anyone who ever wanted to inquire about this secret has been turned into powder by the Queen's anger.Over time, people regarded King Bai as an immortal heavenly man.

But Mo Mo knew this secret.

He just asked casually, and his father told him his biggest secret without reservation.

It was a summer afternoon, Mo Mo was only five years old, and his favorite thing to do was to go around his father in circles to stun him.While his father sat down helplessly, he quietly reached out to grab the scepter in his father's hand.

"Be good, Mo'er, I can't let you play with this." The handsome man in white gently tugged at the scepter held by Mo, "This is my royal scepter, without it my father will cease to exist."

"Father, isn't this just broken wood?" Mo said with some doubts.Compared with the jewel-studded clothes of the mother and the long scepter made of jade, the wooden scepter that the father never leaves his hand is much more simple.A branch that can be seen everywhere, still has two tender green leaves hanging on it, no, one fell off a few years ago, and now there is only one leaf hanging on it alone.

The man in white sighed, stroked the top of Mo's head and said, "Mo'er, do you know what this is? This is the longevity tree, one of the four rare treasures in the world. Father is just a mortal, and it is because of him that he can always accompany you. Mo'er!"

"Longevity wood?" Mo repeated in a daze, faintly feeling that this secret was very important to him, so he couldn't help asking, "What is that?"

"Wood, vines, flowers, and bones are the four innate treasures in this world. They were born together with this world and have the purest power. Longevity wood conceives the purest breath of life, and the sky-breaking vine can cut open the world , the Wugou Flower has the power to transform life and death, and the Thunder God Bone is the nemesis of all evil. Your mother queen traveled thousands of miles to find the longevity wood in order to stay with me. Unfortunately, when you found it, the longevity tree The blessing fruit has been taken away by someone, and she can no longer live with people. She used the power of heaven and man to turn the whole longevity tree into this king stick, and let me carry it with me to replenish the power of life at any time..."

Mo did not sleep that night.He tossed and turned, only one thought circling in his mind - those who get the elixir wood can live forever like heaven!But where to find a second everlasting tree?

Mo's body grows day by day, and his elder brothers grow old day by day.

Finally, his starling has also reached the last moment of life.His father took care of him day and night for half a month, but he still couldn't save his fate.

On the day of the burial, Mo remembered very clearly that it was the first time he saw his father cry, and it was also the first time he saw his father and mother quarreling.Until the next few days, there was always something strange in the father's eyes.Mo clung to him almost instinctively, hoping to divert his attention, but he still often lost his mind while talking.

That day was the day of the Great Court Assembly, and 12-year-old Mo already had the qualifications to go to the palace.He stood at the end of the ministers and saw his father walking slowly step by step from outside the hall.

The man in white did not sit on his throne.He walked to the center of the main hall, facing the Queen of Heaven and Man, put on one knee and smiled for the last time.Then, amidst the queen's heart-piercing screams, she slowly let go of her right hand.

The sound of the king's staff falling to the ground was very soft, and the only scorched yellow leaf was shaken and fell from the branch.

A gust of wind swept through the hall, Mo stared wide-eyed, and saw that beautiful man turned into dust little by little starting from his shoulders, and finally was completely blown away by the wind...

"what--"

The queen roared wildly, and rushed to the center of the hall, trying to gather up the white sand on the ground, but she couldn't catch it no matter what.

"Why? Why are you still unwilling to be with me forever? Don't you want children? I gave birth to ten children for you. Why do you still want to leave?"

"What's the use?" The Queen's face suddenly turned ruthless, she stabbed into her abdomen with one hand, pulled out a mass of flesh and blood from the abdomen, and threw it on the ground, "What's the use of this kind of thing that can't keep you?" ?!"

A coolness rose from Mo's back, and the one on the ground was clearly an unformed baby!

"It's them! It's the deaths of these useless things that make you uncomfortable! Let you leave me!" The blood-stained queen suddenly turned her head.Being swept by her sight, Mo was so frightened that his blood was about to freeze.

I am going to die, the empress is going to kill me!

"Empress! Calm down, Empress!" Brother Nine, who was standing in front of the courtiers, shouted loudly, and quickly rushed to the Queen to block her sight, "Empress, calm down, ah—"

Mo saw half of Empress's arm protruding from the back of Ninth Brother. Ninth Brother opened his mouth to speak, but was choked by the blood in his mouth. After coughing for a long time, he hugged the still crazy woman in front of him tightly and murmured in a low voice. Said: "Mother... people will die... but the soul... will not die. Father... father may... still... save. Cough...cough...you kill us, father... He...he...won't...forgive..."

I can't remember what happened afterwards.

The Queen Mother is gone.Before she left, she took him to the Temple of Heaven and Man, and let the man who was exuding a chill all over take care of her.And Mo became Yu Liao's second monarch, the master of the world.

For a while, Mo was obsessed with running the house.This world seems to be a picture scroll, where he can splash ink at will, and he even falls in love with this feeling.until that day...

Seeing the silver thread on his temple, Mo suddenly panicked.Unlike the empress, I will grow old and die, and I am approaching death step by step every day now!

When Mo picked up the king's rod abandoned by his father, but found that it didn't work at all, he completely fell into madness.Every night, he seemed to be able to hear the sound of time passing by, and even smell the decaying smell coming towards his face!

Mo announced to the world, looking for long-lived people, even long-lived spirits.

At this time, he naturally no longer wanted to find a second longevity tree.He knows very well that all the rare treasures in the world are unique.Since the only tear-shaped fruit on the longevity tree disappeared, it must have been obtained by someone or an animal.As long as you find the person who got the Fushou Fruit, or his descendants, then you can find a way to refine it back.Once the longevity wood is complete, it can be integrated into the body, and you can live forever!

After spending several years of hard work, but still getting nothing, Mo became more and more violent.He held the useless king's scepter in his hand, and he was unwilling to let go for a moment, as if he could draw a sliver of life force by doing so.He began to become moody and killed batch after batch of court ladies who served him.

When Mo Sui pierced the chest of the guard who was making a little noise while walking with his scepter, he was surprised to find that the scepter in his hand seemed to have regained a little vitality?

Using human flesh and blood can nourish longevity wood!

Mo is like a drowning man holding on to his last chance of survival.He tried countless times, and finally found that the flesh and blood of young men is the most beneficial to the longevity wood.After being soaked in the blood of more than 500 people, a blood-red leaf even grew out of the king's staff in his hand!

However, Mo couldn't absorb the vitality from the king stick.Just when he was at a loss, a thought flashed through his heart like lightning.

Plant it back!

In desperation, Mo suddenly remembered what his father said, that his mother obtained the longevity wood from the south bank of the great river thousands of miles away.It can't be returned to the land here, but it can be done there!As long as there is enough flesh and blood to irrigate, maybe a blessing fruit can grow again?

It took Mo a year to build 15 large and small ships, and took [-] people to the south bank of the great river.As for what will become of Yu, Mo doesn't care at all.He has only one thought now, to live forever, to live forever like a heavenly man!
