Chapter 51: The Fire Tree and the Flint Stone

Seeing Wu Yu's expression, Ding Cong was a little hesitant, but now he is also a cultivator anyway, and he has weak water defense, and he is no longer a small role at the mercy of others.

"Okay, let's go to the woods over there. Ding Cong stretched out his hand and pointed to the woods next to him and said lightly.

Wu Yu was very satisfied with Ding Cong's indifferent appearance, and followed Ding Cong into the forest.

Ding Cong sat on the trunk of a tree that was crushed by a fire tree, looked at Wu Yu and asked lightly, "What do you want to say?" ”

Wu Yu also found a comfortable place to sit down, and said very casually: "Let's talk about who I am." ”

"Are you sick?" Ding Cong looked at him with disgust and continued, "I don't have time to talk about philosophy with you. After saying that, Ding Cong jumped off the trunk of the tree and prepared to go back.

Wu Yu smiled, and there was an endless sense of vicissitudes under his immature smile. said to Ding Cong's back: "This has something to do with you, don't you want to know why?"

Ding Cong turned around and asked, "You can tell me anything I want to know?"

"Of course, but only after something is settled. After speaking, Wu Yu smiled weirdly, and his body disappeared in an instant, like smoke and mist, slowly dissipating.

Ding Cong had long prevented the outbreak of the witch rain from hurting people, and at the moment when the witch rain disappeared, Ding Cong was about to retreat, but unfortunately he was a step slower, his body was as heavy as a thousand gold, and he couldn't move a step.

Ding Cong's soul power turned sharply, forming a thin film on his skin, and only then did he isolate the invisible force that trapped him. Then his left hand slashed out, and a seven-foot long sword broke through the surrounding confinement power. Ding Cong held the sword in his left hand and strode out of the woods, but saw the fire tree and Lao Li who fell to the ground.

Ding Cong came out quickly, and it can be said that he appeared outside the woods in an instant, but Wu Yu was even faster, and he had already knocked Lao Li and the fire tree to the ground.

The fire tree was lying in front of Lao Li, his right arm was scorched and black, only dry bones, and his left hand was holding the back collar of Lao Li's leather coat. Lao Li's little face was completely bloody, and the red on the side of his mouth was particularly dazzling, and he was lying on the ground with his back to the sky, his chest floating slightly.

Wu Yu looked at Ding Cong with some surprise, and then looked at the seven-foot long sword condensed in his hand, lowered his head and thought for a while, and then his figure appeared next to Ding Cong, and said with some embarrassment: "It shouldn't have been used as bait in the first place, and it was really a failure to seal it directly, alas." ”

Ding Cong also wanted to cut him with a sword, but unfortunately he knew that there was too much difference in strength, and it was better to do less useless things. Just raised his sword in front of him and listened to what Wu Yu had to say.

"Has the little daughter-in-law of the fire tree given birth?" Wu Yu ignored the long sword in the distance after approaching, and asked a question that was extremely irrelevant to the present.

Ding Cong's spirit shook slightly, and he felt a sense of frustration, and immediately stabilized his mind and said lightly: "The birth is imminent." ”

How do you know that Wu Yu sighed after hearing this, his expression was down, and he said lightly: "I hope it's a boy!"

Although the voice was small, it still fell clearly into Ding Cong's ears. This sentence is a bit informative, and Ding Cong had to think about it carefully. Then he asked softly, "Is there something wrong with you two?"

............

On March 18, the vision of heaven and earth, the golden crow was hidden in the clouds, the thunder swept across the sky, the Yingshui rose without rain, and the mountains shook in a gathering place.

All visions were accompanied by a cry and returned to normal.

Within a radius of 100 miles, the early summer enters early, the buds are vigorous, the buds bloom instantly, and the fragrant breath is brought into the grass house by the warm breeze, gently brushing the baby's cheeks.

Feng Xi was half-lying on the straw mat, looking at the sleeping baby in his arms, the joy in his heart could not be expressed, so he could only gently hold the child and shake it slowly. Zizhu beside him also looked at the young life that had just been born with a smile, and quietly cleaned up the utensils in the house.

Huoshu, Speechless and Plum have not returned for more than ten days, although the family is not worried about anything, but for such a major event as the import of Tianding, the male owner generally has to stay at home, and Xiong Ji and Jiren will inevitably complain a few words, and Feng Xi is smiling and silent.

Due to the different identities of the Fire Tree now, the matter of Fengxi's production has alarmed the entire Suiming clan. As early as one day before, the women had left their work to help, cleaning the house, preparing sacrificial utensils, preparing food for the celebration, and so on.

With the permission of Xiong Ji, Jiren opened the family's warehouse and distributed all the supplies needed for each family's life in advance. Since the fire tree has always been able to bring back a large amount of meat in recent years, after deducting the quota handed over to the clan, the rest is filled into the family's warehouse, so the Suiming clan can be regarded as the family with the best living conditions in the entire tribe.

It was a baby boy who was born, and Huoshu had already said that he would wait for him to choose a name, because he didn't know men and women, so he didn't have any preparations, anyway, the child was still young, and it was no problem to be early or late.

The birth of a boy is always a major event in the clan, so the Suiming clan celebrated for three days with singing and dancing.

But what I didn't expect was that the song and dance did not stop, and an unfortunate news came out, Feng Xi suffered from wind chill after giving birth, and his body weakened rapidly, and he died of illness seven days later, and the fire tree still did not return.

............

Five months later, the Fire Tree returned with the head of the cyclops.

At this time, the fire tree was as thin as a skeleton, and there was not a trace of muscle on its right arm, just a layer of wrinkled and dry skin wrapped around the bone stick. There was still a black bear riding under him, but it was much bigger and stronger, with a faint golden light on his body and golden eyes.

He was followed by no less than a thousand black bears, and the nearest black bear was carrying a very bad plum on his back, speechless but missing.

............

Huoshu held his son Mi Xi in one hand and slowly walked to the cemetery on the south side of the settlement, looking at the high mound of earth, silent, and the child also closed his eyes and slept quietly.

After a long time, Huoshu said with a slight cry: "I did it, but you didn't see it. ”

Two lines of hot tears rolled down and landed on the cheeks of the child in his arms, and the little one seemed very uncomfortable, waving his little arms across his face.

The fire tree did not stay long, and after a short period of worship, he turned and left. Before leaving, Huoshu turned to Fengxi's fiefdom and whispered, "I have decided, the child will not be included in the clan name, let him follow your surname, surname Feng." And I will also abandon this useless name, and I will take a new path. Someday, we'll meet again and we'll tell you when the time comes. ”

The voice was small, but unusually resolute.

............

The bear plague on the north side of the tribe has been lifted, and the long-standing predicament of the Xiong clan has been solved, and now even if the enemy is not able to resist the invasion of the Jiuli tribe, it can retreat into the mountain range, or the whole clan can move north. But many people are reluctant to give up the richness of this land, and the living standard will improve a lot after the bear problem is lifted, and the Jiuli people have been very quiet all these years and have no intention of expanding.

After confirming the safety of the mountains, the clan decided to reinstate the system of recommendation by the clan chief. Of course, there is no need to recommend anyone now, the whole clan can see that the fire tree cut off the head of the youkai and led the huge black bear herd out of the mountain range. In terms of the interests of the whole clan, he has contributed the most, and in terms of personal force, no one can compare with him.

Naturally, the Fire Tree became the head of the clan, and the year after he took over the clan, he made a decision to move the clan to the northwest.

This incident caused an uproar within the clan, many clans did not agree with this decision, so disputes broke out, and finally Huoshu resolutely took the Suiming clan and the Feng clan, as well as a few small clans, left the Youxiong clan and headed towards the vast northwest.

Before leaving, the fire tree did two things for his people and announced one more.

He informed his people of the location of the woods where he had learned his art. Just because this is a promise to Fengxi, it is a promise.

Secondly, he told his people how to use the rock fragments in the woods with the dead branches, and it would be much easier to make a fire.

In the end, he announced that the people who followed him would no longer belong to the Arikuma clan, but would be renamed the Suiren clan.

In this way, the fire tree led some of the tribesmen on a migration journey, and finally settled in the northwest. Although the climate is relatively cold, the abundance of products is no less than that near Yingshui, and there are no powerful tribes in the four directions that can threaten them.

............

In the blink of an eye, Huoshu was fifty-six years old, and his proud son Feng Mixi was thirty-two years old.

Even as a cultivator, the Fire Tree still hadn't recovered from the old injuries of the year, and during this time, signs of injuries erupted from time to time. Eventually, Huoshu decided to put the entire clan in the hands of his son, Feng Mixi, who had been living near Mount Kunlun for nearly thirty years.

At this time, the tribe had long been rich and powerful to an outrageous level, but there was no harm if there was no comparison. These years of comfort have made Mi Xi, who wants to show his ambitions, like a cage, and now he has finally taken over the clan, of course, he has to put his original vision into action.

Huoshu's injuries were getting worse day by day, and his body was weakening day by day, and before he died, he called Mi Xi to collapse and said what he was most concerned about.

"Over the years, there has been no news of Li Zi and Speechless, if you really want to go back, take the trouble to find it. The fire tree's trembling, hoarse voice came out.

In fact, on the way to the migration of the fire tree, Lao Li disappeared alone without saying goodbye. The wordless disappeared earlier, after meeting the golden-eyed black bear, the fire tree was knocked unconscious, and when he woke up again, he was speechless, and the master said with certainty that he was still alive.

Time always comes and goes, and I won't listen to you at all. Now that Huoshu's life is finally coming to an end, he is still thinking about his master and Ding Cong in his heart, although he still doesn't know what Ding Cong's name is.

Mi Xi knew that his father had not finished speaking, so he held his left hand and listened carefully.

"Find a way to take me to your mother, I have a lot to say to her. After saying this, Huoshu smiled with difficulty, closed his eyes and passed away.

Mi Xi didn't show much grief until the last moment, but after carefully tidying up the appearance of the fire tree, he summoned people to bury it.

............。

After the Fire Tree left the Bear Clan, the woods became the most visited place for the Clan every year, not only for the delicious wild fruits, but also for the gravel and dry wood. The fruit is very delicious when it is dried and ground in the sun, and the fruit in the forest is very productive. The removal of rubble and dry wood freed them from the trouble of storing fire.

Many years later, at a clan council, the people agreed to name the trees in the forest the fire trees and the stones flint in honor of the legendary patriarch.
