Chapter 30: Divinity
and the old man walked into the depths of the Tong Forest.
This tung forest grows very well and densely, of course, this can only be concluded on the premise of removing the strange appearance of the tung forest.
The branches and foliage of the tung trees growing in the depths of the forest are intertwined, and if you want to walk in the forest, you need to be careful so that your clothes are not cut by the outstretched branches. In addition, the dense branches and leaves overhead almost shrouded the forest, which made the road to the forest even more difficult.
But fortunately, Wang Daoan, who led the way in front, seemed to be a frequent visitor here, he walked lightly, and when he encountered some unique "organs" in the forest, he would carefully remind Wei Lai.
After half a moment, Wei Lai and the old man walked into the middle of Tonglin.
When he arrived here, his vision suddenly widened - the huge paulownia tree that required at least ten people to hug the square to surround the trunk appeared in front of Wei Lai's eyes, unlike the paulownia trees that grew densely in the forest before, the huge paulownia tree was extremely empty around it, and there were only fallen leaves piled up all over the ground. The huge paulownia tree, its trunk mottled with the marks of time, stood silently in the middle of the clearing, like a king surrounded by his people. The obscured sunlight spilled down through the gaps in the leaves, casting a golden circle of light on the ground, making the place even more sacred.
"What is this?" Wei Lai faintly realized that this paulownia tree seemed to be different from the trees he had seen before, he turned his head to look at the old man and asked softly.
"This is the paulownia tree that was granted the Book of Knot by the immortals, and the place where it is located is the seven inches of the Yin Dragon, and it is also the king of the trees of the entire paulownia forest. The old man said with a smile.
Hearing this, Wei Lai nodded secretly, but soon realized that something was wrong, and he looked up at the old man again, with a look of horror in his eyes that he had never felt before: "What does Mr. mean, is the story you told me true?"
Wei has seen a lot of books, this is not his original wish, in fact, his father and mother like, Wei Lai has nothing to do is to look through one of them, his family in the old house in Wupan City, there used to be most of the courtyard with the other party's useful or useless books, but then the flood flooded, those things also rushed away.
Of course, Wei Lai was not so arrogant that he thought that he had read countless books, in fact, he only looked at a small part of his father's books, but the story told by the old man was originally related to the affairs of the Yu, Zhou, and Yan dynasties.
Thinking of this, the expression in Wei Lai's eyes couldn't help but become a little strange.
The old man nodded then, then shook his head again.
"How do I know if it's true or false for so long?" said the old man with a smile, the wrinkles on his face were touched by his smile, and it looked like the shriveled bark of the ancient tree, "Do you really think that I am a monster who has lived for hundreds of years as those people in Gutong City said?"
Wei Lai, who was poked in the center, couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and this fleeting embarrassment unfortunately did not escape the old man's eyes.
"Huh. The old man smiled, not caring about this, he walked up to the huge tung tree, stretched out his hand and stroked the trunk of the tree: "This tung forest has existed since I was very young, and this tung forest has lived longer and longer than anyone in this city, and my family has been the caretaker of this tung forest for generations. โ
"And that story was told to my dad by my grandfather, and by my dad to me. โ
"If you're going to ask me if it's true or not, I can only tell you that I believe in this story, that's all. โ
When Wei Lai heard this, he nodded, probably understanding what the old man said, but he said strangely: "But what does this have to do with me?"
The old man slowly paced back and forth around the huge trunk of the paulownia tree: "Originally, it was not a trouble to come and take care of the tung forest, the water and soil here are fertile, and I don't need to do anything. โ
"But just a few days ago, probably four or five months ago, just like what Childe saw when he ate, on the periphery of the tung forest, those tung trees began to die very abnormally, I tried many methods, but I didn't find the root of the disease, until I met Childe yesterday, and when I saw Childe, I found that Childe seemed to have a strange power in his body. โ
Wei Lai's heart jumped when he heard this, and his gaze at the old man was alert.
"Childe doesn't have to be like this, although the old man seems useless now, he also pushed open a divine door when he was young, but now that he is older, he can't use that kind of ability anymore. But some of the qi is still there, and Childe is in a coma, and that force seems to be instinctively protecting Childe, so the old decay can be noticed. The old man hurriedly explained, looking extremely afraid of being misunderstood by Wei Lai.
And it was indeed difficult for Wei Lai to distinguish the truth from the falsehood of such a statement, but thinking of the old man's sincere attitude all the way, Wei Lai temporarily let go of the vigilance in his heart, and asked, "What does the gentleman want the younger generation to do?"
"Childe, don't worry, you listen to the old man slowly. Wang Daoan hurriedly comforted Wei Lai, and then said: "What is the qi in Gongzi's body, it is not true that he is old and shallow, but Gongzi came to this paulownia tree to take a look." โ
As he spoke, the old man beckoned to Wei Lai, who, although hesitant, stepped forward and walked to the huge paulownia tree. At the old man's suggestion, Wei Lai stretched out his hand and gently placed it on the paulownia tree, and then his eyes closed and sensed carefully.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
From the silence at first, after a few breaths, a slight sound suddenly came, and then the sound grew heavier and clearer, and gradually became regularโlike the sound of a heartbeat!
Wei Lai's heart was shocked, and secretly said that this tung tree has become a spirit?
But at this moment, another strange feeling came, and with the sound of the "heartbeat", the golden light particles the size of a grain of rice entrenched in front of his divine gate began to tremble slightly, and it seemed to have some kind of strange change similar to the resonance with the paulownia tree.
Wei Lai hurriedly withdrew his hand and opened his eyes, and what caught his eye was Wang Daoan's slightly eager cloudy eyes, and the old man asked eagerly, "Does Childe feel it?"
Wei Lai wasn't sure if the old man's "feeling" was something he felt by searching, but he nodded at that time.
The old man's face suddenly showed joy, he said: "I have been close to this paulownia tree since I was a child, and I was often taken here by my father to play when I was a child. But since the paulownia trees on the periphery of the paulownia forest began to die, the 'qi' around the paulownia trees has become thinner day by day. And yesterday I happened to feel this breath in Childe's body, so I thought Childe might have a way to save it!"
Wei Lai lowered his head and fell into a deep groan, there was no doubt that the qi that the old man said was the golden power in his body, and this thing was called divinity by the demon.
Wei Lai couldn't figure out why he had such a thing, let alone why the ancient tree in front of him also produced this so-called divinity.
And Wei Lai's deep groan made the old man a little flustered, secretly thinking that Wei Lai was unwilling to spend his strength to do this "senseless act".
The old man ......paused and seemed to be unable to find the right words to persuade Wei Lai, he hesitated for a while, and then said: "But if the old man is willing to help the old man this time, the old man is willing to give my house to the son, and there is nothing else for the old man to ......."
Wei Lai came back to his senses when he heard this, he looked at the panicked old man and smiled apologetically: "Old gentleman, don't think about it, the younger generation will start here." โ
Wei said, and in the old man's surprised gaze, he slowly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the trunk of the ancient tree.
......
The so-called divinity was actually an extremely important thing for Wei Lai.
This thing is the key for him to enter the second realm, and this thing is not the power of blood or the spiritual power after cultivating to the second realm, but can rely on himself or absorb it from heaven and earth. As far as Wei Lai was referring to, this divinity could only be produced by absorbing the power of the Demon Orb or the eighty-one golden threads. The former will eventually run out of steam, while the latter will come very slowly.
But the old man saved Sun Daren's life, and with Wei Lai's temperament, he will do what he says.
Because he was not skilled in the mastery of divinity, it took him a whole day to inject the golden divinity the size of a grain of rice into the tung tree, and the tung forest did not change much, or such a change may not be immediate. But the "qi" that lingered around the ancient tree did increase a lot because of this, and the old man thanked Wei Lai for a thousand thanks.
Wei Lai was ashamed of it, and he only felt that all this was indeed what he should do, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
It's just a day of high-intensity urging divinity, which also makes him extremely tired. After doing this, Wei Lai was worried about Sun Daren's condition, so he walked out of the forest with the old man.
It was nearly dusk and it was dark.
"Yes, this is it. Give me a cut from here. An old man and a young man had just stepped out of the woods, and heard a sound of sparse footsteps and the rough voice of a man outside the woods.
The old man was obviously extremely sensitive to this sound, and after hearing the sound, Wei Lai clearly felt the old man's body shake. Then he eagerly picked up the branch in front of him and walked in the direction from which the voice came.
Wei Lai faintly realized that something was wrong, he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly followed at that time.
And when Wei Lai followed Wang Daoan to that place, there were dozens of figures standing outside the Tong Forest, pointing at the Tong Forest, and one of the men who was about twenty years old was even more proud, and he was like a river in that place. But Wei Lai didn't care about these people, and when he saw this group of people clearly, his eyes immediately fell on the man who led him......
The girl in the red group also looked at Wei Lai at that time, and winked at Wei Lai playfully.
