Chapter Nine: Sycamore Blossoms, Birds and Phoenixes (II)
It is also strange to say that in this cold Kunlun Mountains, there is a large sycamore forest.
Sycamore trees like light and warm and humid climate, cold tolerance is not strong, generally grow in plains, hills and ravines, according to common sense, sycamore trees can not grow in the Kunlun Mountains such a cold climate.
But nature is so ingenious, all kinds of impossible and so-called possibilities, on the way to the town where Xu Huai and the little girl rushed, there was a dense plane tree.
"Brother, look, there is a large forest in front of you, but why are their leaves green? It's winter now, shouldn't they, are all the leaves gone?" asked the little girl, sitting on Dabai's body, pointing to a lush forest in front of her.
"The autumn leaves of the sycamore tree fall early, at this time, the sycamore tree should have been bare according to common sense, but now the opposite is done, not only the leaves have not fallen, but they are still very luxuriant, and even the flower bones are hanging on it. ”
"It's amazing!"
It seems that this is also because of the changes caused by the aura, the revival of the aura, the dead wood in spring, bringing all kinds of unreasonable phenomena, presumably this is the precursor of the so-called great world. Xu Huai looked at the woods in the distance and thought in his heart.
Suddenly, as if the entire sycamore forest had received some order, the pink flower bones hanging on the trees bloomed at the same time, exuding a fragrant fragrance that even the brother and sister who were a hundred meters away could smell it.
The sycamore flowers are still blooming, Xu Huai took the little girl to step forward and watch carefully, anyway, the time is not bad at this time, as long as the little girl likes it.
At the same time, the distant sky suddenly sounded with the chirping of birds, all sorts of things, clear and far away, bright and loud, and then, as if the sky had darkened, shrouded in dark clouds.
The little girl who was watching the flowers raised her head and looked into the air, her face full of shock, as if she had seen something incredible.
"Brother, look, there is a beautiful big bird in the sky, and there are many small birds around, many, many. ”
Hearing this, Xu Huai raised his head and turned his gaze to the sky.
In the sky, a big fiery red bird with a body length of about two meters and a wingspan of nearly three meters, it has a fiery red crown on its head, a long neck, and beautiful colorful feathers, like a legendary phoenix.
Behind the big fiery red bird, followed by a large number of various birds, sparrows, eagles, pigeons, owls, swallows, magpies, etc., endlessly, it is impossible to explain at all, that kind of infinite majesty, even Xu Huai is the first time to meet.
I saw that after the big fiery red bird circled over the sycamore forest for a few circles, it slowly landed on the tallest and thickest sycamore tree in the sycamore forest, and then, the flock of birds that covered the sky and the sun also followed the fiery red big bird, and fell in the sycamore forest.
"Brother, is that big fiery red bird a phoenix?" the little girl's face was full of shock, and she broke the calm before going to bed.
"Well, that's it. ”
"Zhuangzi Qiushui" once recorded, "There are birds in the south, and their names are Ori Chicks, and the children know that they are born in the South China Sea and fly in the North Sea. ”
To the effect that there is a bird in the south, and its name is the Bird, and you know it? The Bird Bird takes off from the South China Sea and flies to the North Sea, and it does not inhabit the plane tree, it does not eat the fruit of bamboo, and it does not drink the sweet spring water.
Isn't this scene in front of you exactly in line with the ancient book "more than Wutong"?
"This phoenix bird, whether it is originally unknown, or under the influence of this reviving aura, like that demonic vine, it has mutated again. Xu Huai asked himself in his heart, but he didn't know what the real answer was now?
But he knew that the day when the truth would come wouldn't be too long, it was just a matter of time.
"It hasn't been long since this aura has been revived, and such a change has occurred, and I don't know what will happen in the future?"
"Let's go, girl, hurry down the mountain, don't go again, when you come back, it's going to be late." Xu Huai came back to his senses and urged the little girl on the side to hurry up.
After hearing this, the little girl reluctantly rode Dabai to follow behind Xu Huai, and from time to time she looked back at the big fiery red bird perched on the plane tree.
This is not surprising, this big red bird is too beautiful, and the legendary phoenix is not much different, Rao is Xu Huai's heart, and he can't help but admire the beauty of this big red bird.
In this way, Xu Huai continued to walk with the girl Dabai, although this big flaming bird that looked like a phoenix was very beautiful, he did not have the idea of using force to conquer it.
For Xu Huai, who has already stepped into the innate realm, catching a bird is really easy.
However, all things have animism, they have their own opportunities, and they should not be easily delusional, and Xu Huai is peaceful and calm.
In his heart, he already knew that this fiery red bird had a great body of essence, full of qi and blood, and a coherent body of acupuncture.
Corresponding to the human cultivation realm, this fiery red bird has reached the so-called peak realm of the day after tomorrow and embarked on the path of cultivation.
I believe that with continuous cultivation, this fiery red bird may really transform into a saint and evolve into a legendary phoenix step by step.
Finally, half an hour later,
Xu Huai and the big white girl came to the foot of the mountain, as long as they crossed the river in front of them, they could go to the town on the other side of the river.
"Mr. Xu, are you going to the town to catch a market?" asked a sixty-year-old man who was waiting to cross the river.
"Yes, this is not to take the little girl to catch up with some New Year's goods, and by the way, buy some snacks that she likes to eat, what about you, Uncle Lin? What are you doing in town?"
This Uncle Lin is not from Xu Huai's village, but another village with more than ten miles of roads in the adjacent village.
A year ago, when Xu Huai was looking for herbs in the mountains, he met Uncle Lin, who was injured by chopping wood and attacked by wolves.
Therefore, this Uncle Lin saw that Xu Huai was also very close.
"I had a little luck, I picked a snow lotus on the mountain a few days ago, and I was about to go to the big pharmacy in the town to exchange it for money, and buy some New Year's goods, so that I could hurry up for the New Year, haha. Uncle Lin said, raising the burden in his hand, obviously containing the snow lotus he said in his mouth.
Kunlun Snow Mountain Snow Lotus, the value is relatively expensive, is a relatively expensive Chinese herbal medicine, if it was a few years ago, in Xu Huai's grandfather's generation, Snow Lotus is still more common, as long as you have the heart, go into the mountains to find a few plants, it is still very simple.
And now, the snow lotus in Kunlun Snow Mountain has long been close to extinction in the continuous excavation, and there are fewer and fewer people, that is, people in the mountains, going up the mountain to chop firewood or looking for herbs, will encounter a plant by chance.
