Chapter 37: The Poignant Peach Blossoms
At dawn the next day, An Yun went to the back mountain early, holding the token in her hand, and the prohibition in the Spirit Grass Garden would not be launched against her.
Elder Yan Shuiyun, who was in charge of the battle order of Chaoyun Sect, had no disciples, she was the youngest Jindan monk in Chaoyun Sect, and she was just over three hundred years old in the world.
In the invasion of the demon clan fifty years ago, she participated in the battle just after she was promoted to the Jindan realm, and after driving the demon clan back to southern Xinjiang, she was also seriously injured and has been hiding in the back mountain to retreat and heal.
Elder Yan Shuiyun was happy to be quiet, and the entire back mountain was designated as a forbidden place for retreat, and he did not take a step out of the back mountain, and not many disciples of the younger generation of Chaoyun Sect had seen her.
Last time, Min Zimo, Zijuan, and Changkong dared to take An Yun to steal the spirit rabbit, and they were also sure that she would not appear lightly, and at most she would come out to check on her divine consciousness. Otherwise, give them great courage, and they don't dare to provoke the sect elder Jindan lightly.
However, as soon as An Yun walked into the Spirit Grass Garden, he saw Elder Yan Shuiyun.
Dressed in green clothes, the jade feet were on a three-grade lotus platform, the mist wet her long hair, her back was facing An Yun, her back was thin and depressed, and she couldn't see her appearance.
An Yun was stunned for a moment, and then bowed and saluted: "An Yun, a disciple of Liuyun Zhenren, has seen Elder Yan. ”
The woman looked into the distance and ignored her pleas. Without her permission, An Yun didn't dare to get up without permission, so he had to maintain the posture of inviting An and stand quietly in the Spirit Grass Garden.
"You're here to take care of the disciples of the Spirit Grass Garden?" After a long time, she finally spoke, but she did not turn around, her voice was hoarse and rough.
An Yun was stunned for a moment again, he didn't expect Elder Yan's voice to be like this, as if his throat had been injured.
"Yes, Elder Yan, the disciple's name is An Yun."
"Do you understand the habits of the spirit grass? Do you know how to take care of a caregiver? Yan Shuiyun's tone did not fluctuate, and his hoarse voice was like sand and gravel cutting through iron.
"The disciple understands a little." An Yun said modestly.
"It's not okay to understand a little, the disciples who came to take care of the Spirit Grass Garden before, a few of them didn't understand the habits of the Spirit Grass, and they raised a lot of Spirit Grass to death, so I just issued a task to the Comprehensive Affairs Palace, and I need a disciple who knows the Spirit Grass well. If you don't know how to pretend to understand, I will punish you. Yan Shuiyun said in a low voice.
An Yun glanced at the Spirit Grass Garden, there were all kinds of spirit grasses in the garden, and there were several sixth-order spirit grasses, if he missed this opportunity, it would take a lot of effort to collect all these spirit grasses.
After careful consideration, she bowed down and said, "The disciple is willing to give it a try." Although he tried it, his words were full of confidence. With her identity as an alchemy master in her previous life, the entire Chaoyun Sect is afraid that there is no one who can defeat her.
"Oh?" Yan Shuiyun's tone fluctuated slightly, he thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, if you take care of it well, I will have a reward." If the spirit grass withers and blows nonsense, don't blame me for not giving you face to your master, and it is necessary to punish him heavily. ”
"If the disciple understands, he will be attentive."
Yan Shuiyun stopped talking and continued to look into the distance.
The golden crow jumped over the hill like a projectile, spilling orange light down the spirit grass garden. The mist reflects the five-colored light in the sunlight, which is a beautiful scenery.
"It's been another year, and the peach blossoms are thankful again."
An Yun heard Yan Shuiyun's soft sigh in his ears, and when he looked up, Yan Shuiyun was nowhere to be found.
She walked to the Sanpin Lotus Platform where Yan Shuiyun was standing before, and looked into the distance from this angle, and happened to see two peach trees leaning against each other at the highest point of Yuzhu Peak.
Against the backdrop of the golden crow, the branches of the two peach trees crisscross and are entangled, and the peach blossoms on the branches are no longer prosperous, and they have begun to wither, and there is a kind of mutilated and desolate beauty.
In Chaoyun Sect, each peach tree represents a disciple of Chaoyun Sect. The five peaks have peach trees all over the sky, but there are less than two hundred Chaoyun Sect disciples in the sect.
An Yun has not planted his own peach tree, but he inexplicably feels that the peach blossoms in the mountains and fields are full of pink and sunny, and they are extremely tragic and magnificent.
One day, will there be such a person, standing here from afar, looking at the peach blossom that belongs to her?
And is there anyone like Elder Yan Shuiyun, thinking about her, thinking of her, waiting for her, even if he knows that she will never come back.
An Yun shook her head and smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking that her state of mind of hundreds of years of penance would also be infected by Elder Yan Shuiyun's affection and this poignant scenery. If you really don't cultivate anymore, your state of mind will drop again and again.
An Yun shook off the occasional worry in his mind and started today's task.
She first spent three hours slowly walking around the Spirit Grass Garden, carefully observing each Spirit Grass Spirit Fruit, and found that the years of these Spirit Grasses were the same, the longest was more than three hundred years, and the shortest was just planted.
Under the Spirit Grass Garden, a large spirit gathering array was arranged, and the spiritual energy within a radius of ten miles from the back mountain was absorbed here for the growth of the Spirit Grass.
The precious spiritual grass is planted in the very center of the spiritual grass garden, where the spiritual energy is the most abundant, and the lower the level, the lower the year of the spiritual grass, the more on the periphery.
After An Yun counted them one by one, he learned that there were a total of 2,459 kinds of spirit grasses in the Spirit Grass Garden, among which there were three of the most precious sixth-order spirit grasses: Purple Lotus, White Lingzhi, and Yipin Immortal Dew.
There are twenty-one kinds of fifth-order spirit grasses, one hundred and nine kinds of fourth-order spirit grasses, three hundred and seventy-five kinds of third-order spirit grasses, nine hundred and two kinds of second-order spirit grasses, and the rest are all first-order spirit grasses.
An Yun shook her head slightly, feeling that Elder Yan Shuiyun was a person who didn't understand spirit grass, so many kinds of spirit grass planted together, they would affect each other's medicinal properties, and even "fight" with each other, she saw that many spirit grasses had died, this was the reason.
Moreover, although the spiritual grass planted in the spiritual grass garden is all spiritual grass, most of them are useless things, such as the poisonous snake fruit, royal bee needle, mimosa, and so on, which are useless at all, and will rob a large amount of spiritual energy for their own growth.
An Yun somewhat understood, no wonder Elder Yan Shuiyun just said that the previous disciple had taken care of her spirit grass to death, this obviously had nothing to do with the care of the disciples, it was just that she didn't understand the spirit grass and planted it indiscriminately.
It's no wonder that apart from the fifth-order and sixth-order spirit grasses, even the fourth-order spirit grasses have very short years. The grade of the fifth- and sixth-order spirit grasses was too high, so they could barely compete for the poisonous grass, and the other spirit grasses were not so lucky.
An Yun secretly slandered Yan Shuiyun in his belly, he really didn't know how to pretend to understand, and he was angry.
After thinking about it, if she understood, why did she let the disciples of the sect take care of it?
I think it was because the original disciples didn't dare to explain the gist to Yan Shuiyun, and they didn't dare to pull out the weeds privately, so it was difficult for the spiritual grass to grow, and most of them died.
Hey, the fields are full of weeds, and if you want food to grow well, you have to pull out the weeds.
An Yun sighed and began to pull weeds.
The little spirit beasts in the garden were not afraid of An Yun, but looked at her curiously, seeing that she pulled out the useless spirit grass and threw it out of the formation, they rushed to snatch the fresh spirit grass.
Busy until noon, An Yun stopped, and when he saw that less than a tenth of the garden had been pulled, he withdrew his hand. took out the token and went out of the Spirit Grass Garden back to Koi Hall.
