Nine Phoenixes World (2) (Urban Life Adult Novel)

Chapter 2: Eternal Fortune

The wind is cold and the snow is flying. Changbai Mountain, which is covered with snow all year round, is covered with heavy snow. In the distance, the mountains

The mountains are undulating, the peaks are continuous, the snow is endless, the vast silver is covered, and only a few towering peaks are

On the peak, you can still see towering ancient trees, huge pine forests, and black spots.


Yuxian Peak, the most beautiful peak in Changbai Mountain, stands on the snowy Cangshan Mountain surrounded by thousands of peaks.

Then the snow day. On the snowy peaks, the wind howled and snowflakes swirled, making sharp and piercing whistles. The entire peak, covered

In the swirling snow fog, the sky was gray and gloomy, and it was difficult to make out human figures a few feet away. Countless towering ancient trees are sparsely

Scattered on the peaks, they look like countless icicles reaching into the sky and piercing the clouds, which is a spectacular sight. The cliffs on the south side of the peak are thousands of feet high.


There are many rocks and the terrain is extremely dangerous.


On a rock several feet wide and jutting out from the cliff, stood a boy of fifteen or sixteen.


He was A Yu. After his master’s wife satisfied him that time, A Yu asked his master to let him go down the mountain to look for his relatives the next day.


The master allowed him to go down the mountain. Before he left the mountain, his master's wife Lu Yuezhen claimed to be ill and did not come to see him off, but she sent someone to bring him her

A Yu hurriedly made two cotton coats.


A Yu just came down the mountain and found that he was hungry, so he prepared to hunt deer and rabbits to fill his stomach. He crossed mountains and ridges and soon arrived at

In the heart of Mount Huashan, A Yu was standing on a large rock, looking around, when suddenly a white shadow flashed, a snow-white rabbit

It ran straight to the southwest through the grass, and he quickly jumped up and followed it.


After chasing for a while, just when he was about to catch up, the white rabbit suddenly leaped off a cliff.

As he watched, he saw that the white rabbit had landed about a few feet from the top of the cliff. He thought that with his current Qinggong, he could still

He could not go up or down, so he took a deep breath and jumped down. The white rabbit was startled when it saw him jumping down, and it jumped towards the cliff.

Lost any trace.


Ah Yu looked towards the cliff where the white rabbit had fled to. It turned out that there was a small hole on the cliff. He thought that the white rabbit had hidden in the hole.

After a closer look, it turned out that this cave was not a small cave, but a large cave about one person tall.

It had been blocked by large rocks, and moss had grown all around it, so you couldn't see it unless you looked carefully.


Out of curiosity, he tried to push the rock with his hands, but it didn't move at all. So he took a deep breath and pushed hard with both hands.

However, when he pushed the stone, it was shaking and about to fall. Ah Yu was overjoyed when he saw this and quickly adjusted his inner strength.


He put all his strength into his arms and pushed hard against the stone with his palms. There was a loud bang, and stone chips flew everywhere. The stone was in his hands.

And when it fell, a tall cave immediately appeared.


Ah Yu paused for a moment, then without hesitation jumped into the cave, and walked about ten feet away.

Suddenly, the view in front of him opened up to a clearing of ten feet in size, planted with exotic flowers and plants, with a fragrant smell.

Mixed with a unique fragrance, it is refreshing and invigorating.


Ah Yu followed the scent and headed for the flowers, only to find a plant growing in the shade of the stone wall.

The plant has nine leaves and a bright red fruit on the top. It looks very pretty.

It came out of the fruit. There was a stone tablet next to the green-leaved plant. Ayu cleared the green on the tablet.

There was a piece of text carved on the moss, which roughly meant:


“This plant is called Nine-Leaf Fairy Fruit, an ancient treasure that absorbs the essence of heaven and earth and takes nine thousand years to grow.


When unripe, it is extremely poisonous. When ripe, the bright red fruit is eaten by men, making them immune to all poisons and prolonging their life.


It can also make a man's penis bigger and harder and last forever.


The leaves are even more magical. They can only be taken by virgins during sexual intercourse with men who have eaten the fairy fruit. Otherwise, blood will flow out.

It can bring the dead back to life, turn back the old, make the user forever a young girl, and open up the

The warrior's Xuanguan meridian increases his power by a hundred years. The disadvantage is that he is like a barren woman who cannot have sex with other men, and he is very sensitive to the servants.

Those who use the magic fruit love it wholeheartedly and obey its orders.


The person who left the message on the stone tablet was Shui Yanzhen, a martial arts fairy from 200 years ago. She and four other people

Collectively known as the Five Elements Wonders, she led the righteous martial arts world to resist the other four Five Elements Wonders who wanted to dominate the martial arts world. When I was 30

She learned that the other four people happened to take the thousand-year-old dragon grass, which would make them sleep for two hundred years and increase their strength by a hundred years.

Two hundred years later, the martial arts world was in turmoil and bloodshed, and Shui Yanzhen also went in search of the thousand-year-old dragon grass.


I found this Nine-Leaf Immortal Fruit by accident, but it will take another two hundred years for it to mature. Shui Yanzhen thought this was God's will.

The sect has a unique skill called the Heavenly Silkworm Divine Art, which allows practitioners to increase their skills while sleeping, but it requires a magical power like the Nine-Leaf Immortal Fruit.

Therefore, the destined person is willing to sacrifice his chastity to save the martial arts world from danger two hundred years later. ”


Below is also a map of Tianxiangshui Mansion in Changbai Mountain where Shui Yanzhen is hiding.


Ah Yu felt it was amazing after watching it. He thought to himself, he was fine, if he could really save a martial arts world,

If he succeeds, all the beauties in the world will surely look at him differently. As he thought about it, he walked closer to the Nine-Leaf Fairy Fruit, picked the fruit and put it in his mouth.

It is very fragrant and sweet, and once it enters the mouth, it will immediately dissolve in the saliva, and the whole body will feel extremely comfortable, and the lower body

The penis felt swollen, and when Ayu took off his pants, he saw that the penis was twice as big as before.

Yes I like it. A Yu took the nine leaves and traveled day and night to Changbai Mountain.


"This is it!" Ah Yu turned on the switch where the map indicated, and saw a mountain appeared on the stone wall.

Ayu jumped into the cave without hesitation. He immediately felt warm and saw a pool of water in the cave.

spa. The hot springs are steaming and the water is misty. There is a stone bed next to the hot spring, and a naked woman is lying motionless.

Lying on the stone bed.


Ah Yu walked over and saw that the woman seemed to be asleep, with her hair spread out on the bed and her skin as white as white.

Jade, with a curvy figure, full and firm breasts, a slender waist, plump buttocks, and slender legs.

Her body had attractive curves, a smooth belly, lush lower abdomen, and there was not a single flaw on her body.


A Yu knew that this was the Fairy Shui Yan Zhen. A Yu came to Shui Yan Zhen and looked at her carefully.


He was intoxicated by this extremely beautiful face, holy and beautiful, aloof and quiet, like a fairy descending to earth, so beautiful

pole! Even if all the words in the world were used, they would not be able to describe Shui Yanzhen's unparalleled beauty! That was a surprise.

Human beauty, otherworldly beauty! Although there are many beauties in the world, compared with her, they are like pheasants compared to phoenixes.


A Yu stroked Shui Yanzhen's delicate face with trembling hands. The sound of her heartbeat covered all other sounds. Shui Yanzhen was really special.

Some body odors intoxicated Ayu.


Ah Yu couldn't wait to put a leaf of the Nine-Leaf Fairy Ganoderma into Shui Yanzhen's mouth, and saw that the leaf immediately turned into

Disappeared.


At this time, A Yu stroked her silky body with his hands, and kissed Shui Yanzhen's earlobe.

Then the chin, neck, and finally stopped at the tall and proud jade peaks. The soft feeling made Ayu excited.

Quickly take off your clothes.


A Yu's huge cock was already as hard as iron. He spread Shui Yanzhen's legs apart and lifted her up with both hands.

Yanzhen's willow waist, aimed at Shui Yanzhen's peach garden, thrust her waist and inserted the penis halfway, piercing Shui Yanzhen's virginity

Hymen. Seeing blood flowing down Shui Yanzhen's thighs, A Yu felt the excitement and pleasure of possession. He is slow

He thrust slowly for dozens of times and only started to thrust rapidly when he felt Shuiyan's vagina was really unblocked! He is like a wild

He gallops on Shui Yanzhen's body like a horse!


Gradually, Shui Yanzhen responded, breathing softly and twisting her buttocks, which further stimulated Ah

Yu, he closed his eyes and gathered all the strength in his body to his waist. The sound of the collision of flesh was like thunder that shook the cave.

Suddenly, Ayu's penis erupted like a volcano, spraying all the semen into Shui Yan's real paradise.

middle……


Under the influence of the Nine-Leaf Fairy Fruit's medicinal power and the incomparable pleasure, Shui Yanzhen slowly opened her beautiful eyes and

She looked at the boy on top of her and asked softly, "Who are you?"


A Yu quickly left Shui Yanzhen's body, clasped his fists and bowed deeply, saying, "Senior, my name is A Yu.

I, the disciple of Huashan, had the audacity to offend your body because I saw your message. Please punish me! ”


Shui Yanzhen's face flushed, and she shyly glanced at her lower body. After a long time, she spoke: "Ayu, come over and help me

I sat up. "Ayu helped Shui Yanzhen sit up. Shui Yanzhen leaned her head on Ayu's shoulder and said quietly:


"You've treated me like this, and you still call me senior. Is it because you don't like me?"


"No...no...I think you are like the Guanghan Fairy in the sky. I am not worthy of you!" Ah Yu said stupidly.

The answer.


Shui Yanzhen said coquettishly: "Silly boy, I will always be yours..." A Yu's penis couldn't help but start again.

It began to swell, Shui Yanzhen saw it, and stroked the penis with her jade hand and said: "My dear, I know you like it.

After taking the Nine-Leaf Immortal Fruit, my sexual desire becomes stronger, but I have just woken up from a 200-year sleep, and my body is weak. I need half a year of rest.

Take care of yourself, and I will serve you well in half a year. ”


"Then I'll take care of you here." said A Yu.


Shui Yanzhen smiled slightly, "No need, I can take care of myself. I calculated that you will have another adventure. In half a year,

I'll go to Huashan to find you. ”


A Yu asked in surprise: "Can you tell fortunes?"


Shui Yanzhen said: "I know a little bit about everything from astronomy to geography. My dear, I need to retreat and rest.

That’s all. See you in half a year! "Ayu reluctantly left Tianxiangshui Mansion.


Sitting in a small hotel at the foot of Huangshan Mountain was a young man with ordinary appearance and simple clothes.

A Yu is looking for relatives in Changbai Mountain.


Suddenly a guest came into the tavern. Wow, this sight made everyone stunned! Everyone is sincere

Kanli shouted in unison: "Wow, it's so beautiful!"


No wonder everyone was so confused. It turned out that this person who suddenly appeared was a beautiful woman who looked like a fairy.

The beautiful woman was about thirty-one or thirty-two years old, with willow-shaped eyebrows and phoenix eyes. Her pupils were like cold stars, emitting a twinkling light.

Her face was oval, her skin was smooth and white, like jade, and she looked so tender that it would break with a slight pinch.

You can squeeze out water, and if you gain one pound more you'll be too fat, and if you lose one pound less you'll be too thin. It is truly a masterpiece of God.


If I had to find fault, it would be that the gleam in his eyes was too sharp, and he was carrying a

The sword formed an invisible aura of fierceness, which made ordinary people, although they wanted to look at her a few more times,

But I didn’t dare to look at it any more. Therefore, when everyone's dazed eyes suddenly met hers, they all involuntarily

His heart trembled, and he was so frightened that he immediately lowered his head.


As the inn was crowded, it had already been occupied. After the young woman entered the inn, her eyebrows were slightly frowned.


Look around, hoping to find a seat.


Suddenly she saw a glittering gold necklace hanging around A Yu's neck, and her heart was shocked. This necklace hand

The workmanship is so exquisite that even the famous craftsmen in the capital may not be able to make it. There is a jade pendant hanging at the bottom of the necklace.

Yu was brought up by the beautiful woman since childhood. It took a long time for her to calm down. She walked up to Yu and said excitedly: "Little brother,


Can I borrow your jade pendant for you to see? ”


A Yu thought to himself: "Could she know my background?" and quickly handed the jade pendant to the beautiful woman.


When the beautiful woman saw the jade pendant, she cried, "You are indeed my poor child. I have had such a hard time finding you!"

Seeing A Yu standing there in a daze, he said, "This is not the place to talk, come with me!"


A Yu followed her doubtfully to a deserted small temple. The beautiful woman said: "Child, you don't quite believe it.

Me, do you have a birthmark on your butt? ”


At this time, A Yu woke up from his dream, hugged the beautiful woman, called out "Mom", and burst into tears.


The beautiful woman felt a little uncomfortable at first, but then she hugged A Yu tightly and burst into tears. The beautiful woman told A Yu: She

Her name was Huang Wanjun, the ruthless Chang'e. She fell in love with Dongfang Yuntao, the eldest son of the Dongfang family, and gave birth to Ayu. Oriental Family Day

The economy was becoming increasingly depressed, so Dongfang Yuntao married Nangong Xiangyi from the Nangong family. Dongfang Yuntao and Huang Wanjun hugged Ah

Yu wanted Nangong Xiangyi to agree to share a husband with Huang Wanjun. Nangong Xiangyi pretended to agree, but she secretly

Ayu was abandoned in the wilderness. Huang Wanjun left Dongfang's house in pain to look for Ayu, but Dongfang Yuntao was afraid of offending the Nangong family.

Therefore, he practiced in seclusion and did not care about worldly affairs.


After hearing this, A Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Then no one from the Dongfang family asked about this matter?"


"Child, the people of the Dongfang family originally thought you were a burden and were afraid that you would offend Nangong.

Aristocratic family. Your disappearance is exactly what they wanted! ”


A Yu's face turned pale with anger. "Okay! Nangong Xiangyi, Dongfang family, you wait, I, A Yu, will definitely...

You will pay the price. ”


"Yes! Child, we must take revenge! In the past few years, I have been looking for you everywhere while disguising myself as a traitor.

The Dongfang family waited for an opportunity. Come with me, my mother and I are going to turn the Dongfang family upside down! ”


Ayu nodded firmly...


"I pay my respects to the master and the mistress!" A Yu, under the guidance of Huang Wanjun, who was disguised as the Dongfang family's maid,

Kneel down and kowtow to the Dongfang Shuo and his wife. Dongfang Shuo, with the help of his wife, the Flower Scattering Heroine Chen Shuyun, tried hard to get out of bed.

He sat up, his serious illness had brought this former martial arts master to the brink of death. He said, “Show me…


Good, you’re a good boy! Shuyun, what do you think of the child? ”


Chen Shuyun nodded and agreed: "He is a good child!" As she looked at Ayu carefully, she suddenly found

I found that A Yu was secretly looking me up and down, his eyes were full of surprise and a hint of desire.


Ah Yu could not believe that Chen Shuyun, a woman in her fifties, still maintained such a graceful and charming figure.

Although the passage of time has taken away Chen Shuyun's youth, she has maintained her figure as a martial artist.

She still maintains her temper, and she takes good care of herself every day, so her skin is still smooth, tender, white and translucent.

Hong, you can still see the grace and charm of the fourth place on the first beauty list thirty years ago. Ayu's eyes stared

Looking at Chen Shuyun's slender legs, plump and round buttocks, and breasts that looked like two small mountains, I suddenly found that Chen

Shuyun was looking at herself and quickly lowered her head.


Chen Shuyun was not unhappy with A Yu's bold look. Instead, she felt an inexplicable joy in her heart.

It was a kind of pleasure that a woman's vanity was satisfied. A Yu saw all her reactions and thought to himself:


"You old bitch, you look pretty good. You didn't want me back then, and now I don't treat you as my grandmother. Wait a minute."

I'll make you call me grandpa! ”


Huang Wanjun said: "Master, Madam, his name is Xiaoxiong, he is my nephew. This time I went back to my hometown and found him.

His parents are both dead, and the child is left alone, which is very pitiful, so I brought him here, and ask you two to take him in. ”


As he said that, he pulled A Yu and knelt down together.


A beautiful woman who was serving Dongfang Shuo said to Chen Shuyun, "Mother, this child is so pitiful. Look at him.

If he is very honest, let him take care of dad! ”


Dongfang Yu heard Huang Wanjun talk about some things about the Dongfang family on the way. He knew that this beautiful woman was Dongfang Shuo.

The daughter of Dongfang Xia. Dongfang Xia was ranked ninth on the last beauty list. She had just married sixteen years ago.

She died in a gang fight and had to return to her parents' home.


Dongfang Yu looked at her secretly. Dongfang Xia was very noble, graceful, and well-proportioned.


She was graceful, like a precious flower, quiet and full of alluring grace. Dongfang Xia was about to continue speaking when she suddenly

Suddenly, a silver bell-like laughter came from outside the door, and the sound of a lark entered Dongfang Yu's ears: "Hey, look!

Lai Meizi is not satisfied with the person I sent to take care of her dad. ”


As they were talking, a beautiful woman walked in from outside. She had a golden hairpin across her cloud-like bun, which sparkled brightly.


Her clothes were embellished with pearls, her skirt was thin and light, and her delicate body exuded a rich fragrance. Her face is very beautiful, her eyebrows are picturesque, and her face is smooth.

Her skin is white and rosy, very attractive. The most fascinating thing is the delicate and lazy look she shows with her charming figure.

Her graceful figure and mature and charming style give her another kind of charm and beauty that is in no way inferior to Dongfang Xia.


After she came in, she smoothed her hair with her left hand, and I saw that she was wearing a bracelet made of ancient jade on her arm. Beautiful winks

Like a burning torch, he stared at Dongfang Yu without blinking, as if he wanted to study his internal organs clearly.

looks like. This is definitely not an ordinary woman.


Dongfang Yu knew that she was Murong Yan, who ranked fourth on the last beauty list. Dongfang Xia said coldly: "Your

Who doesn’t know about this wishful thinking? ”


"I swear to God, I am doing this for Dad's sake. I have specially found a servant who knows medicine to take care of him."

She glanced at Dongfang Shuo. When she saw that Dongfang Shuo turned his face away and ignored her, she felt bored.

Dongfang Haitao watched her enter the room and said, "I don't care anymore! Haitao, let's go!" Then he turned and left.


Dongfang Haitao looked at her and said to the old couple Dongfang Shuo, "Mom and Dad, I'm leaving now." Then he chased after them.

go.


At night, A Yu secretly came to Dongfang Shuo's room, looked inside and saw a screen in the room. Original

Chen Shuyun was bathing behind the screen. Ah Yu was stunned to see Chen Shuyun standing naked on the bright red rose.

Rose petals floating in a bucket. Chen Shuyun is truly a natural beauty. Although she is already fifty years old, she still looks so beautiful due to her good maintenance.

Well, you can still see the charm of the fourth most beautiful woman in the martial arts world thirty years ago.


Chen Shuyun was seen kneading her plump breasts with one hand and sliding her other hand towards her vagina.

Guan inserted it inside, and a low moan came out of his mouth. Suffering from loneliness for many years, Chen Shuyun

She has to resort to masturbation to satisfy herself, she is a mature woman after all!


Ah Yu was watching uncontrollably when he suddenly heard a slight sound. He turned around and saw Dongfang Shuo lying on the ground.

He covered his chest with his hands, his whole body twitched, and his face looked extremely painful. A Yu rushed in and took the big

The Queen held Dongfang Shuo in her arms and put the pill into his mouth. At this time, the Flower Scattering Heroine Chen Shuyun heard the noise.


Knowing that something was wrong, he didn't care about his naked body and rushed over, shouting to A Yu: "Help the master sit up quickly!"

Come! ”


Ah Yu immediately followed his instructions. Chen Shuyun sat cross-legged behind Dongfang Shuo and placed her palms on his back.

Qi helped him to disperse the medicinal power as quickly as possible. A Yu could now admire Chen Shuyun's beautiful body from a close distance.

The huge and plump twin peaks exude the radiance of motherhood. At the end of the legs there is an attractive bulge, which is covered by Qiqi Fang

Covered with grass. Under the noble, holy and kind face, there is such an alluring body, which makes Ayu feel

The desire to possess.


After a while, Dongfang Shuo passed the critical period. Chen Shuyun gently put him, who was drowsy due to the effect of the drug, on the bed.

Then he walked up to Ayu and said, "Thank you so much today, what reward do you want?"

Seeing A Yu's greedy eyes, he realized that he was still naked. His face immediately turned red and he didn't know what to do.


Ah Yu had the urge to say, "Just give me your reward!" But he held back, after all, Chen Shuyun was a

A noble and dignified woman cannot act too hastily and needs to proceed step by step. He quickly took off his coat.


He gently wrapped up Chen Shuyun's beautiful body and said, "This is what I should do."


Chen Shuyun was a little puzzled as to why A-Yu came so coincidentally, so she asked, "When did you come?"


"I came a long time ago. At first, the light in the room was on, and there were occasional groans. I thought it was the master.

To..." As he said this, A Yu secretly smiled at Chen Shuyun. He knew that he needed to be direct now.


Chen Shuyun couldn't help but look at A Yu's lower body and found that it was like a big tent. She was so embarrassed that she

Her face flushed, her heart pounding, she rolled her eyes at him and asked, "Did you see everything?"


Ayu nodded, "Perfect, that will remain in my memory forever!"


"So do you think I'm slutty and lowly?"


A Yu shook his head and said: "No, on the contrary, I respect you very much!"


Chen Shuyun was puzzled, "Why?"


Ah Yu said seriously: "You are a beautiful woman that all men want to have. You must have your desires.

You have been a widow for more than ten years, taking care of your man, keeping your chastity for him, and suffering in desire. I feel that old

I should be satisfied. There is no woman more worthy of respect than you to me. ”


Listening to Ayu's words, tears came to Chen Shuyun's eyes. She developed a strange liking for Ayu.


She felt that A Yu was her confidant. Unconsciously, the relationship between the two has undergone a completely different change.


In Chen Shuyun's heart, Ayu is already a man she can rely on. She unconsciously leans on Ayu's shoulders.

Crying softly.


Ah Yu knew the time was right, so he gently held Chen Shuyun's face with both hands and licked her face with his tongue.

Tears on. Chen Shuyun only felt waves of strange itching and numbness that made her whole body tremble slightly, hot and uncomfortable.

However, this wonderful feeling was something she had never experienced before, and it was enough to make her intoxicated and confused.


Ah Yu still didn't want to possess this beauty so quickly, so he suddenly loosened his hands, moved them down, and hugged Chen Shuyun.

Slim waist. Chen Shuyun instinctively hugged Ayu's neck and raised her head eagerly. Ayu's passionate kiss fell on her like raindrops.

It sprinkled on her hair, pretty face, ears and necklace.


Chen Shuyun finally let go of all her reserve and defenses, unable to control herself, her lips kept emitting soul-shaking

She moaned in a lewd and ecstatic way, and her beautiful body pressed and rubbed against him. A Yu kissed her sweet lips, and they were immediately

Tongues entwined. A Yu's tongue wrapped around Chen Shuyun's sweet tongue and kissed and sucked it passionately. At this time, both of them

Immerse yourself in the complete oblivion of worries, infatuation, and incomparable passion.


Just as A Yu was thinking about the next move, Chen Shuyun suddenly felt something was wrong with her remaining consciousness.

Yes, she regained consciousness. She pushed A Yu away and leaned against the bed, breathing heavily.

After a long while, he said, "We can't do this! I can't do anything to let the master down!"


Ah Yu knew that if he persisted a little longer, he might get Chen Shuyun, but time had passed so long that the thing on the bed

Fang Shuo could wake up at any time, so he had to wait for the next opportunity. He said, "Madam, I was impulsive just now. I am not

Man, punish me! ”


"It's not your fault. Go away! Forget about what happened tonight!"


"Oh! I'm leaving!" He turned and walked out the door.


After A Yu left, Chen Shuyun stared at Dongfang Shuo in a daze for a long time. She changed her clothes and left the room.


I want to walk alone. After she left, Dongfang Shuo shed tears. It turned out that he had woken up a long time ago. He knew

I'm sorry to my wife. He was thinking if Ah Yu and Chen Shuyun really had sex, would Shuyun be very

Happy... Thinking of this, his penis, which had been motionless for more than ten years, became erect, but soon became soft again.
