Chapter 497 Five Decays of Heaven and Man
Jiang Li often changes his surname, and there is a reason for changing his appearance. His appearance is enough to make people ignore everything.
Looking at the eyes of these people, Jiang Li wanted to remind them that this was the old Dragon King's birthday banquet, not his.
"Grandpa Long is not in good health, then quickly contact Uncle Su Wei at the Alchemy Peak." Li Nian'er felt that there is no pill or disease that Su Wei cannot make in the world.
The Dragon King of the East China Sea shook his head lightly, without explaining much.
…
"What birthday gifts have you prepared?"
The dragons are in groups of three or four, and they want to know each other's birthday gifts in advance before celebrating their birthdays.
"Twelve night pearls with a radius of two inches." One of the dragon sons quietly opened a gap in the gift box, revealing a faint blue light.
Such a large night pearl can be made into a good spirit treasure or decoration as long as it is refined a little.
This is what Longzi found in his territory.
"Mine should be inferior to yours. It's just a reverse scale left by a real dragon." Another dragon said inferior, but he was actually jumping for joy in his heart.
True Dragon Nilin is more valuable than Ye Mingzhu.
"Look at my birthday peach, eat one, you can extend your life by twenty years."
"You don't have any intentions about these things. At the birthday banquet once every ten years, there is no such thing."
The dragon sons sneered: "Then what do you want to give to Grandpa Long, take it out and have a look."
"Qingxiang Dan, made by Chiwulu himself, when carried on the body, there will be a faint fragrance, suppressing all odors."
"What's the use of this thing?" The dragon sons didn't take it seriously. They didn't want this kind of useless medicine even if it was given to them for free.
"You don't know that, I spent a lot of money to buy a message from Grandpa Long's maid, saying that Grandpa Long likes these strange things with fragrance recently."
"In terms of value, Ye Mingzhu and Nilin are definitely more valuable than my Qingxiang Pill with the pill pattern, but what's the use of it, if you don't like it, it's just nothing."
This dragon son is not worried that they will change the birthday gift. Although the scented things are not worth much, they are very rare, and they can't just find them.
"Is your news accurate? I heard that Grandpa Long has been changing maids recently. The old maids will always disappear mysteriously, and the Dragon Palace recruits new maids. You must be a new maid. I don't know Grandpa Long's preferences. I made it up randomly to scam you out of money."
"Impossible." This Long Zi felt guilty, because after the maid gave him the news, he couldn't be contacted soon, and a new maid took her place.
"The maid is missing?" Li Nianer frowned.
"It's sister Nian'er." All the dragons were polite to Li Nian'er. This is the daughter of a real dragon, and even the only daughter of the Transcendence Tribulation Period. In terms of social status, they are not as good as Li Nianer together.
In front of Li Nian'er, they didn't dare to show off any birthday presents. The birthday presents presented by their daughter during the tribulation period must be more expensive than theirs.
"What happened to the maid's disappearance, please tell me in detail." Li Nian'er felt that there was a big problem.
"This..." Longzi, you look at me, and I look at you.
"We're just talking casually, don't take it seriously."
"Recently, rumors have spread out from somewhere that Grandfather Long's life is approaching. In order to break through the catastrophe period, he was bewitched by the evil way. He was practicing magic skills and killed many maids. In order to conceal this news, the Dragon King of the East China Sea declared that the maids were missing. But there are no collective disappearances, and several batches of maids have disappeared."
"It's impossible, Grandpa Long is not such a dragon." Li Nian'er shook her head vigorously, not believing what they said, Grandpa Long is a very kind dragon, it is impossible to do such a thing.
"So these are rumors and cannot be taken seriously. But the disappearance of the maid is true."
Li Nian'er felt that this matter was not simple, and there might be a shocking secret hidden behind it. Instead of investigating alone, she ran directly to Jiang Li's side and told him the news she heard.
Ao Chengcheng and Mo Ruoyu were also listening.
"I, I don't know." Li Nian'er's anxious tears rolled in her eyes, and she told in her heart that the rumors might be true, Grandpa Long practiced magic, but emotionally, she didn't believe it.
The combined period can live up to two thousand years, and the dragon race is no exception. Life-extending things such as longevity pills can add another eight hundred years to the two thousand-year lifespan.
The old Dragon King is indeed approaching his lifespan.
This is also the reason why Li Er is unwilling to attend the birthday banquet.
The longevity of the Tribulation Period will make the old Dragon King jealous.
"Human Emperor, my father invites you to come over." The Dragon King of the East China Sea respectfully invited Jiang Li.
"It's just right, Nian'er, you also come over to meet your Grandpa Long."
Jiang Li brought Li Nian'er, Ao Chengcheng and Mo Ruoyu to the old Dragon King's bedroom.
The bedroom of the old Dragon King was in stark contrast to the outside world, it was quiet and there was no sound at all.
As soon as Li Nianer stepped into the bedroom, he smelled a pungent fragrance.
Scents are supposed to be refreshing, but the interweaving of various scents makes the scents nondescript and disgusting.
And the source of the fragrance is the old Dragon King.
The old Dragon King looked sluggish, surrounded by various spices.
The old dragon king was sweating all over, and the busy maids wiped the old dragon king's body back and forth. As soon as the sweat was wiped off, new sweat was secreted from his body surface.
This is obviously not the state of the normal integration period.
Li Nianer was about to say something, but Jiang Li signaled her not to speak.
"Old Dragon King, how are you feeling recently?" Jiang Li sat beside the bed with a smile, chatting with the old Dragon King.
"I feel okay, but I don't have much energy, and I'm not in a good mood. Maybe it's because I haven't had a good rest recently."
"Then rest more, it will get better."
"The Human Sovereign is bothering you. Speaking of which, the Human Sovereign was also in the Transcendence Tribulation Period. Can you tell me how to break through the Transcendence Tribulation Period."
"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. The way to break through the tribulation period can only be understood and cannot be explained in words. Why don't you think about it yourself, old Dragon King?" Jiang Li refused with a smile.
"Can't figure it out."
"Think about it."
"I really can't figure it out, can you tell me?"
"Not very good."
The old Dragon King's face was old, with wrinkles all over his face, as if he was frowning dissatisfied with Jiang Li's straightforward rejection, and also seemed to simply want to drive Jiang Li away.
"In that case, the Human Sovereign please go back."
Being issued an expulsion order, Jiang Li was neither annoyed nor planned to leave, but said seriously: "Old Dragon King, do you know that you are going to die soon?"
Ao Chengcheng and Mo Ruoyu's eyes widened, they didn't expect Jiang Li to say that.
Whether it’s the two of them or the Dragon King of the East China Sea, they can see that the old Dragon King’s lifespan is nearing the end of his life, his body is producing dirt and sweat, emitting a stench, and his attitude has changed drastically... This is the manifestation of the five declines of heaven and man.
The old Dragon King didn’t admit that he was about to die. He used spices to cover up the smell, asked the maid to wipe his sweat, and didn’t allow the outside world to know his situation. Therefore, all the maids who revealed the content of their work were arranged by the East China Sea Dragon King. They were not allowed to communicate with the outside world, and they were released after the old Dragon King passed away.
The old dragon king didn't want to admit it, so all the members of the group tacitly didn't mention this matter, pretending that the old dragon king was fine, and held a birthday banquet as usual.
Who would have thought that Jiang Li would directly destroy the illusion of the old Dragon King.
For a while, the atmosphere was solemn.
