Chapter 16: Spirit Plant
"I have my own way. Gongliang God smiled mysteriously.
Rui listened thoughtfully, and then suddenly realized: "You Yanbu are really rich, and you still have such treasures. In that case, come with me!"
So, Rui got up and walked out with Gongliang.
Gongliang saw that the direction he was walking was not outside the tribe, but around the high mountain where the main hall of the snake department was located, and came to a valley between the two mountains.
The valley is tranquil, birds chirp on the tall green trees, and a spring flows faintly from the forest. The flowing water is murmuring, tinkling and dingdong, as if singing a Jiangnan minor tune.
The wind blows and the leaves rattle. A breath of wilderness air came to the face, and it was so natural.
The trees were covered with green grass, and Rui continued to walk, and from time to time he could see snakes of strange colors poking their heads out of the grass and forest. Yuanpian was startled, and hurriedly followed Gongliang closely, almost hugging his thighs. The chicks were not afraid, and their eyes were wide as they looked at the snakes.
Gongliang was also afraid, and at this time, the two-headed dragon viper poked its head out of his wrist and glanced at the snakes, who disappeared in an instant.
Walking through the woods, another scene suddenly appeared in front of me.
I saw a spring flowing from the mountain, pouring down from above like a waterfall. From a distance, it looks like a shining silver ribbon, inlaid between the green mountains, dazzling and eye-catching.
There were exactly three stones where the spring flowed. When the spring hits it, it splashes countless droplets of water like flying flowers and broken jade. Those tiny droplets of water shimmer in colorful colors under the refraction of the sun, which is so beautiful and extraordinary.
There is a small wooden house on the edge of the spring, and an old man sits cross-legged in front of the house, closing his eyes and mind.
Behind the wooden house is a tall and green forest of heavenly fragrance, which is full of fruits, flowers bloom in patches, and a fragrance wafts from far and near.
Rui came to the old man with Gongliang and stood respectfully, not daring to disturb.
After a long time, the old man opened his eyes, and a light flashed and disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
"Si Gong," Rui stepped forward and shouted respectfully.
"You're here," Si Gong glanced at Rui, and turned to Gongliang, "Come to think of it, he is Gongliang who helped us bring back the Old Dragon Viper Ancestral God Inheritance Orb from the ancestral land!"
"Yes, Sigong. He likes the fragrant tree and wants to dig some to plant, so I brought him here. ”
"Go, go, it's useless to stay there anyway, it's still too small for us to the snakes. Sigong said with a sigh.
Rui respectfully stepped back and took Gongliang to the Tianxiang Forest behind the wooden house.
Gongliang came here, looked at the Tianxiang Tree, and felt that the Tianxiang Tree inside was a little different from the ones outside, as if it had a spiritual charm and more spirituality. The fragrant fruits hanging on the branches also look more tender and watery than the outside, as if they are filled with an aura, and even the air here is much fresher than outside.
When I walked under a Tianxiang tree, I saw a strange sound coming from Rui's mouth, and then I saw a snake with a thick wrist come out of the woods, climb up the tree, and pat two Tianxiang fruits with its tail.
Rui stretched out his hand to catch it and handed one to Gongliang, "Eat!"
Gongliang took a bite, and the sweet juice entered his mouth, turning into a cool stream and escaping into his stomach. For a while, I was refreshed and clear.
"Well, it tastes good!" Rui asked as he ate.
Gongliang nodded, "It's really good, it seems to be different from the outside." ”
"Naturally, these Heavenly Fragrance Spirit Trees are xenomorphic spirit plants, which only grow in places with abundant spiritual energy. There happens to be a small spiritual vein here, which can plant a hundred Tianxiang spirit trees, and if this number is exceeded, the spiritual energy will be insufficient, and the excess Tianxiang trees will be reduced to the same mortal things as outside. The reason why Si Gong said just now that our tribe is too small is because if our snake department is strong enough, we can go to the middle of the Great Wilderness Temple, grab a few spirit veins, and grow some Heavenly Fragrance Spirit Trees. Unfortunately, that's not possible. ”
"Can't you go now?" said Gongliangqi.
"Of course not. ”
Rui Zhengse said: "There are many tribes in the middle, there are both large tribes and medium-sized tribes, and those small tribes are just vassals who take refuge between medium-sized tribes and large tribes to survive. After our snake department is a snake god, we also have infinite scenery, how can we go to vassals and join other tribes. But if you don't take refuge in other tribes, you can't survive there. Although it will not be wiped out, the heavy losses are certain. Forget it, don't talk about that, you go dig the tree!"
"Which one to dig?" Gongliang asked, looking at the tall Heavenly Fragrance Spirit Trees.
"Go inside and dig up one old tree, then three smaller ones, and the rest of the smaller ones. ”
Rui took Gongliang and walked inside.
Gongliang naturally listened to Rui's words, originally he only wanted to dig up the ordinary Tianxiang trees outside, and at this time, he could dig up the Tianxiang Spirit Tree, what else could he be picky about.
So, under the leadership of Rui, he dug ten Tianxiang Spirit Trees, and planted ten seedlings in the tree pit dug out again. After another ten years, these seedlings can grow into big trees again.
The Tianxiang Spirit Tree dug up was all collected by him into the fruit space, and it was not without a price to collect the Tianxiang Spirit Tree. Every time he collects it, it consumes a lot of qi and blood, and even his spirit will be consumed, so that he feels a little dizzy. Fortunately, there are blood tonifying pills to replenish qi and blood at any time, and after digging the tree, it will be okay to rest for a while and then dig.
Rui watched him put away the Tianxiang fruit trees, and couldn't help but sigh once again at the wealth and profound heritage of their Yanbu.
Gongliang didn't explain much about this.
Dig up the Tianxiang Spirit Tree and come outside to say goodbye to Si Xuan. Si Gong threw a bag over, which contained more than twenty spirit stones.
"After those spirit trees leave the soil, the aura will gradually drain, so you'd better quickly find a place with abundant aura and plant it. You first place these spirit stones next to the spirit tree and let it absorb them, otherwise after losing the aura, these spirit trees will become useless mortals. ”
Gongliang hurriedly thanked Sigong.
"You don't need to thank me, I also want to thank you for helping us send back the inheritance orb of the old dragon viper ancestor god from the snake department, otherwise according to the poisonous heart of the ancestral god of the heavenly dove department, our snake department will definitely be in a catastrophe this time. If you go to the Great Yan Ministry, remember to help me greet the elder Han Mu of the Great Yan Ministry, and remember to tell him that what you owe me should be repaid. ”
"Uh, yes. ”
After speaking, Sigong closed his eyes, and Rui hurriedly left with Gongliang to say goodbye.
When he got outside, Rui pointed to the Tianxiang trees all over the mountains and said to Gongliang: "You can dig as many of these trees as you want." ”
He didn't continue to accompany Gongliang, turned around and went back to the tribe, and let Gongliang dig it himself.
The most important thing for the tribe is the Tianxiang Spirit Tree inside, and these outside are like tree species in the jungle, although they are not dispensable, but they are not very important.
Gongliang didn't want too many people to know about the fruit space, so let Rui know that it was just a last resort. At that moment, he specially chose a remote place to dig Tianxiang trees, and dug up a hundred thick old trees
