During the Tang Dynasty, there was an old woman named Chen Yufu in Pengzhou . When she was young, she was a wealthy family and lived a stable life under the care of her parents. Later, her father died unexpectedly, and her mother couldn't bear the blow and fell into a strange disease. The family was in ruins. Chen Yufu became the mainstay, taking care of her mother and making money to make a living.
The mother and daughter spent decades together like this. Later, when her mother passed away, Chen Yufu sold the remaining house deeds and land deeds at home and moved to the countryside alone. After several decades, Chen Yufu became an old woman. She never married and had no children to support her in her old age.
When Chen Yufu was eighty years old, she suddenly felt thirsty. There happened to be many wild fruit trees in the nearby wilderness, so she went to pick some wild fruits and discovered a thousand-year-old snow lotus on the way.
This kind of snow lotus blooms only once in five thousand years and is very precious. Chen Yufu picked the snow lotus and was about to take it home. At this time, a black shadow appeared behind her and roared at her.
Chen Yufu was startled by the roar. With a shake of her hand, the snow lotus fell to the ground. However, as soon as the snow lotus touched the ground, it slowly floated into the air and entered Chen Yufu's mouth.
The monster immediately appeared in front of Chen Yufu. He had two horns on his head and four hooves. He looked quite weird. The monster caught Chen Yufu and ran away with her on his back.
The road was very bumpy. Chen Yufu felt that her life would be lost here. She was so frightened that she fainted. When she woke up again, she was in the cave. The surroundings were dark and damp. Chen Yufu felt a little uncomfortable. She looked down at her fat belly, which looked like she was four months pregnant.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no monsters around, Chen Yufu got up and ran outside. After a few hours, she returned to the village and found that the time in the cave and the time in the village were not equal. Chen Yufu only slept for half a day, but two hundred years had passed in the village.
The house where Chen Yufu originally lived was dilapidated and there was no familiar face to Chen Yufu in the village. She went to the town to find a doctor to diagnose her pulse, and it was only then confirmed that she was indeed pregnant.
Chen Yufu's elders were businessmen and opened hundreds of medical clinics. However, she did not inherit the family's business and became an ordinary embroiderer. She made a living by sewing and mending all her life. It was enough to meet her own needs. Adding another mouth would only make the child suffer with her, so she was ready to abort the child.
Before the doctor took action, a man dressed as a monk appeared outside. He felt a fairy spirit around the hospital, so he went to visit the hospital. When he learned that Chen Yufu wanted to have an abortion, he quickly stopped her and said to Chen Yufu: "Are you pregnant?" "Blessed person!"
Fairy energy emanated from Chen Yufu, but Chen Yufu was not a fairy, so the child in her belly must be a fairy fetus. After hearing Chen Yufu's account of the strange things, the monk immediately recognized the monster's identity as the patron saint.
Five hundred years ago, there was a drought in the village. After investigation by the villagers, they found that a drought plague had appeared in the village. They invited a patron saint to bless the village with good weather and good weather.
After Ye Liangchen was invited, he immediately caught the drought demon and sealed it under a tree. His true body was a dragon and he lived in the palace on weekdays. Every two months in the palace, a hundred years passed outside.
If Chen Yufu keeps this child, she will be able to practice with Ye Liangchen in the future and even be ranked in the immortal class.
In the end, Chen Yufu decided to keep the child and invited the monk home as a guest and held a banquet for him. Shortly after the monk finished the meal and left, another man came to the house.
This man was very handsome. He walked up to Chen Yufu and explained to Chen Yufu that he was the patron saint of this place.
The drought demon five hundred years ago was difficult to deal with. After a hundred years of wind and sun, the seal became loose, and the drought demon ran out from under the tree again and continued to harm nearby villagers.
Ye Liangchen was worshiped by the villagers, so he naturally had to do his best to serve the villagers. He planned to catch Hanba again. However, while Hanba was sealed, Hanba felt extremely angry. Under the stimulation of intense emotions, he practiced very hard. The former defeated general was now able to fight Ye Liangchen on a draw.
For this reason, Ye Liangchen fought against Han Ba for two hundred rounds. After spending his whole life practicing, he was lucky enough to defeat Han Ba and sealed him again. He also suffered some injuries and needed a thousand-year snow lotus to heal.
Because Ye Liangchen was seriously injured and could not maintain his human appearance, he appeared in front of Chen Yufu in the form of a dragon. He stayed by Xuelian's side for half a year, and finally waited until the snow lotus blossomed and bore fruit. However, when he went to find some food, Xuelian was spotted by Chen Yufu.
Snow lotus is a spiritual plant, and will only be eaten by the first person who touches it, so it ran into Chen Yufu's body. Ye Liangchen was dying, so he had to take the snow lotus into the cave, and performed the courtesy of Duke Zhou.
Now that Ye Liangchen had completely recovered, he came back to find Chen Yufu. During the four months that Chen Yufu stayed in the palace, Ye Liangchen never saw Chen Yufu wake up, so he was going to take her to find the doctor. On the way, he remembered that something had fallen into the palace, so he put Chen Yufu on a stone and turned back. When he came back again, Chen Yufu was gone.
Later, Ye Liangchen turned Chen Yufu into a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old. Chen Yufu also gave birth to the child and went to the palace with Ye Liangchen. The villagers never saw them again.
