Chapter Twenty-Six: Niutou Mountain
Niutou Mountain is not very large, at least compared to the surrounding peaks. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the vast Luoshen Mountain Range, a peak like Niutou Mountain has to have a few million, if not ten million, in fact, even this name was casually taken by the previous master of the Wuling Gate, and the two strange-shaped protrusions on the peak did look a little like a bull's horn, but it was only a little similar.
If you have to say that this mountain has anything special, then it can only be said that the plants on this mountain are slightly strange, no one knows why, every year at this time, the plants on the mountain will show a strange purple red, from a distance, the whole mountain is like a huge torch that is burning, this situation will only last for about half a month at most before returning to normal, and then when you look at it, it is no different from ordinary plants.
It is said that the previous master of the Five Spirits Sect was attracted by this purple red, so he found that large piece of flowers and clovers, and then regarded this place as a top secret of the sect, even those disciples who collected medicines, did not know that the most important five spirit pills in the sect were famous precisely because of the herbs here.
Even if someone occasionally leaked the location, those people only knew that the mountain was purple-red, but after more than half a month, there was still a purple mountain everywhere, so no one had noticed this mountain until now.
No one knows why these plants change color, two generations of sect masters have studied this problem, but there is never any conclusion, only know that the leaves of the plants there will turn purple and red at that time, and the same is true when they are picked, and after this season they will become other colors, except for the five-flowered clover, there is no change in the medicinal properties of other plants, and they have to be stopped.
The saying that this mountain can avoid demon beasts is true, especially when the mountain is purple and red, there are no demon beasts within a radius of fifty miles, and even the demon beasts that hover near this place on weekdays will leave, but the two generations of sect masters have carefully searched the vicinity, but they have not found anything abnormal, anyway, this matter is a good thing for the medicine collection team of Wulingmen, and slowly no one will dig into it.
At this time of year, the medicine collection team of Wulingmen has to go like this, but this year, because of the delay of the beast tide, the purple red on Niutou Mountain is slightly darker, even if the sky is clear, it looks dark and gloomy, and it is a little more gloomy.
The disciples of the Five Spirits Sect were completely relaxed, and even staring at Luo Tian seemed to be a little less sharp, such as Cui Ying, a first-time disciple, looked around from the beginning of entering the mountain, and his mouth let out exclamations from time to time, they had been in contact with medicinal herbs all year round, but they had never seen the wonders of purple and red all over the mountain.
Without Cui Ying's fatigue bombardment, Young Master Luo finally calmed down, but the strange feeling became more and more intense.
At first, he thought it was his own delusion, but after entering the mountain, the Spirit Suppression Sword, which had been silent in the Demon Source Sea for a long time, suddenly shook, and the milky white energy enveloped his Demon Source Sea again, which was something that would only happen when he was under a spiritual shock.
"What the hell is going on?"
Luo Tian vigilantly perceived everything around him, with his huge spiritual power, he could completely wrap the entire mountain, but no matter how he probed, there was not even a trace of abnormality.
"No anomaly is the biggest anomaly......"
Young Master Luo was definitely a skeptic, especially after he found out that apart from their team, there was not even a single living creature in the entire mountain, not even a single insect, his cold hair exploded all of a sudden.
Resisting the urge to turn around and run, he approached Shi Chun quietly, no matter what danger there was, a master by his side would always feel safer.
"The place we are going is at the back of the mountain......"
Shi Chun had already regarded Luo Tian as a person from the Five Spirits Sect in his heart, so he was a little less indifferent to him before, and became extremely kind, he pointed to the mountain in front of the mountain and said, "As long as we cross this ridge, we can have a good rest......"
"En......"
Luo Tian's throat has become swollen, and although he can't speak normally for the time being, he can at least make some simple pronunciations, and he can no longer only "ho-ho" like at the beginning.
"Ho-ho, what are you doing?"
Cui Ying jumped and ran over like a lark, exuding something called youthful vitality all over her body, and she held a bunch of leaves in her hand, as if she was holding a burning flame, "See if I find these leaves beautiful?"
"Spicy Gobi! Is it okay for Lao Tzu to call Luo Tian?"
Luo Tian smiled bitterly and took the leaf in Cui Ying's hand, this little girl seems to have decided that his name is "ho ho", as long as a mouth is this, the most tragic thing is that now everyone seems to have recognized this name.
Naturally, he would not be angry about such a trivial matter, and the little girl in front of him was so innocent and cute, it took great courage to be angry with her.
It was a bundle of arms-length blades, not symmetrical like ordinary blades, but curved to one side, looking like a purple scimitar, which looked extremely beautiful.
"Good...... See ......"
Luo Tian said vaguely, his heart suddenly moved, he raised his eyes to look at the surrounding plants, and his eyes slowly narrowed.
As a wood magister, Luo Tian is extremely familiar with plants, not to mention that he also has a discipline called "Botany" in his previous life, normal leaves are symmetrical, at least roughly symmetrical, unless there is an external force will change, but the leaves on this mountain are just the opposite, if you look closely, you will find that the leaves of plants on Niutou Mountain are rarely symmetrical, most of them are biased in one direction, and the one in Cui Ying's hand is just extremely curved.
This kind of ordinary plant is hundreds of millions of people in the Luoshen Mountain Range, and who cares about these small details, if Cui Ying didn't get this leaf, even Luo Tian wouldn't have noticed, with his strong spiritual power, as long as he found an abnormality, it would be much easier to find a pattern, he glanced around slightly and locked a direction, "Ciao! Could it be so coincidental?"
The tips of all the curved blades point in one direction, and that is the ridge that Shi Chun pointed to just now, judging by the current situation, there must be something there to make all the leaf tips point there!
"The orientation of the blades is not concentrated, indicating that it is a very large source of attraction......
"The branches of the plant have not changed, which means that this thing does not have a great impact on the plant......
"Even Elder Shi Chun didn't find anything abnormal, which also shows this, it won't be particularly dangerous if you think about it, but why does the Spirit Suppression Sword have such a strong reaction?"
