Chapter 57: The Little Dragon That Finally Came Out of the Shell 2
Before Zheng Ming came back to his senses, Da Xiong was already anxiously muttering a string of local words, but unfortunately no one understood what he was saying, but he kept pointing to the woods, looking very anxious, and at a glance he understood that he was talking about a secret hidden in the woods.
Zheng Ming struggled hard, but he couldn't break free from the golden chains on his body, and he was bundled by such an unknown thing, he didn't dare to hide it anymore, and told everything he knew like pouring beans.
"I really don't know much, this forest is very strange, it is true that all the trees that died overnight came back to life, it has been fifty years since I said this, I was not born at that time, I heard it from my father."
Fifty years ago, during the war years, the valley near Hukou Village was inaccessible, but one day a group of people from the village took refuge in the forest.
At that time, most of the trees here had withered, and the people in the village did not understand plants, so they only avoided the forest to satisfy their stomachs. Later, with the further escalation of the war, people no longer lived in seclusion, but actively participated in the war, and then the Japanese army was repulsed, who would have thought that the dead trees in this valley would come back to life as if they were blessed by the gods.
It was said that green shoots had sprung up after a night of spring rains, which was a great auspicious sign at the time, meaning that the war would eventually end and people would be able to return to a stable life.
The strangeness of this valley was hidden from the villagers, and everyone agreed that it was a blessed land, and it was better not to let outsiders know about it and become peeping.
After a few decades, the older generation is getting older, and the magic of this place is only word of mouth. The development of Hukou Village is not fast, and since the spring breeze of reform and opening up, it has always had some impact on this small village.
Some people went around from outside and returned to their hometowns, saying that if they want to make some extra money here, they must take advantage of their own advantages. They rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and the gall wood is a rare thing in wood carving, and they can sell it at a good price since they produce gall wood here.
If you want to say that money is moving, although almost everyone in the village knows the story of dead wood in spring, and they are also a little curious about this forest that has come back from the dead, they also think that it is just a forest, and it is not a big deal to consider cutting some for the sake of economic effect.
Although the villagers knew that this forest was dead wood in spring, they did not observe the place closely, and they did not go deep into the forest until they cut down the old trees. But this time they went in, and found a large rock in the center of the woods, and a grass grew on it. Strange to say, this grass grows strangely, somehow grows out of the stone, and it looks like a black leek, and you can smell a sweet smell when you get close.
The tree cutters did not suffer as miserably as those who came into contact with wood carving, but lived well, and two of them had problems with their legs and feet, but they were not cured by medicine. They all seemed to have had a dream in which they smelled a scent.
Now the villagers felt strange, and some people said that it was better not to cut down trees, maybe this place has some origins, but tasted the sweetness of making money, naturally some people did not agree. It's just that the rules are set, not to be insatiable, cut down some to keep some, and some only cut down the torso, so that these trees can continue to grow, and the people from other villages cannot enter the hinterland of this wood, also to avoid encountering strange things.
Da Xiong originally didn't agree to be a guide, not at all that Zheng Ming said that he wanted a little more compensation, but that he didn't want to break this rule, Zheng Ming said that he only let Mu Feng and the three of them go around the periphery for a while, and then he said that Da Xiong was moved. And now that Mu Feng wants to go inside, Big Bear naturally doesn't agree to go in.
After Zheng Ming finished saying this paragraph, Da Xiong immediately interjected a sentence, which made Zheng Ming's face bitter, "Why haven't you sued me before!" ”
What the big bear said was something that Zheng Ming didn't know, before those trees were cut down, they had not gone deep into the woods before, on the one hand, they didn't have this plan, on the other hand, they couldn't do it, there were originally one or two curious people who had been there, but they all came back in vain, and they always came out in circles.
Yang Lianghe listened to Zheng Ming's complaints, but connected the cause and effect before and after, "That's right, you couldn't get in originally, you would only get lost in the formation, but the trees were cut down and destroyed the formation, so you entered the depths of the woods." ”
Zheng Ming wanted to ask clearly, but Yang Lianghe didn't want to explain at all, but asked Mu Feng to tie Zheng Ming and the big bear firmly to prevent them from escaping, and the three of them wanted to go into the woods to pick off this strange herb.
Yang Lianghe held a compass in one hand to estimate the safe route to enter and lead the way ahead, of course he had to explain things clearly about Mu Feng and Ying Feng.
"I have a rough guess right now, and I can't confirm until I see what's on the bottom of the rock. However, it is certain that this is related to the Seven Seven Returning Yang Array. As the name suggests, the Qiqi Returning Yang Array is used to bring the dead back to life, using the formation to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and providing a steady stream of vitality to the beneficiaries in the center of the formation. This formation has extremely high requirements for terrain and feng shui, and it takes many years to find a treasure place with mountains and rivers to ensure continuous vitality.
It is extremely difficult to manipulate life and death, and there are very few monks who can really use this formation to return to the yang, but the scope of use of a formation can be varied, and it will not stick to the original invented intention. ”
Mu Feng immediately guessed Yang Lianghe's unfinished meaning, "Old Yang, you mean that we met this one to prepare for that stone grass." It is very likely that more than 50 years ago, someone laid down the Qiqi Returning Yang Array here in a big way, just to nourish the stone grass. ”
Yang Lianghe nodded, "That's what I guessed." ”
Yang Lianghe just wanted to give Mu Feng You know my eyes very well, but then he was quickly interjected, "How does this explain that the person who cuts the tree is fine, but the people who come into contact with the wood carving are worried about their lives?" ”
Yang Lianghe could only turn his gaze stiffly, and first said his speculation, "I think it has something to do with this formation under your feet." I used a compass to measure the magnetic field here, and it was very clean and there was no trace of yin. I guess that the person who arranged the array was a master who was guided by the situation, and the Qiqi Yang Restoration Array was originally set up to replenish the yang energy, and the use of the trees to arrange the array really took a fancy to the natural qi of the trees. After this formation is formed, this place will become a very clean place, and no matter what evil qi enters, it will be purified into pure spiritual energy to feed the vanilla.
Those who come here to cut down trees are only healthy when they are naked, but those who buy wood carvings are not so lucky.
The trees used in the formation were originally born to absorb yang energy after entering the formation, even if they were cut down, they would still continue to absorb yang energy, and those who came into contact with wood carving were planted on it, and these trees used as formations had their special features, that is, those galls.
The dead wood is artificially forced to infuse vitality, changing their original growth structure, and the yang energy and aura absorbed by these trees have mutated and grown gall knots, but this is also the gall part that is used as the main material for wood carving.
Those people who came into contact with the wood carving were not only absorbed by the yang energy, but also absorbed all their luck, and naturally a catastrophe came.
The original intention of the person who arranged the formation was to cultivate a vanilla, if no one cut down the tree and sold them, it would not have hurt his life, and the Qiqi Returning Yang Array absorbed the breath of heaven and earth, although this also included absorbing the popularity of a radius of hundreds of miles, but this process was very slow, and it would not cause any excessive damage at all. But time is also fate, the tree is unintentional, whether it hurts people or not, it is all because someone destroyed this formation first. ”
This explanation is reasonable, and at this time, under the guidance of Yang Lianghe, they finally saw the grass on the stone, and at the same time smelled a refreshing fragrance.
The vanilla was nothing more than a normal green fern, about thirty centimeters tall, but it was a solitary plant. It swayed in the wind, and it actually gave people a feeling of pity and couldn't bear to take it off.
However, Yang Lianghe knew that this was the center of the formation, and if he didn't pick this grass, then the scourge of the wood carvings would not end, and the power on those wood carvings would only dissipate after the formation disappeared.
Yang Lianghe was just about to approach this stone, but who knew that at this moment, a breath rushed from the soles of his feet, straight to his heart, making him spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Oh no, I'm afraid this vanilla already has a mind and knows that we are here to get rid of it."
What should I do?
As soon as Mu Feng held Yang Lianghe, he saw that Ying Liang had directly stretched out his hand to pull the weeds, didn't Ying Wei see that Yang Liang and he had vomited blood just now.
"Win boss, don't pull it out!" Yang Lianghe was even more anxious than Mu Feng when he saw this scene, and rushed over to push away the rebellion.
Mu Feng could see clearly, and when Ying Wei wanted to approach this grass, it actually trembled.
Yang Lianghe broke free from the wooden seal, and the wooden seal touched the stone by inertia.
But Yang Lianghe pushed away the rebellion at the critical moment, and he was relieved to see that this herb was fine, "Win boss, this grass should be of great use, you are compatible with its attributes, if you touch it, you really can't live." ”
Mu Feng was stunned for a moment before he knew that Yang Lianghe was worried about disobedience, obviously worried that this grass would be poisoned, he was a little complicated for a while, but he also understood that this herb was not easy to survive, and it might have a miraculous effect, since it was all at this point in front of him, there was no need to rush for a while.
"Lao Yang, if you have any way, just say it quickly."
"I've heard you say that when you touch the wood carving, one of you doesn't feel it, and the other feels that the breath in the wood carving escapes, which shows the different effects of this herb on you. I tried it just now, and sure enough, this vanilla will attack me, indicating that it can hurt me, and it is afraid of winning the boss, and the only thing that is insensitive to it, or that it is insensitive to the outside is the wood you. Only if you take it is reliable. I said, don't be impulsive, we have to be tempted. ”
Mu Feng also found out when he heard Yang Lianghe say this, he clearly touched the stones under the grass, but he didn't feel anything.
Mu Feng tentatively touched the herb, it shook slightly, as if it was a little shy after being touched, but it did not react too aggressively, and then Mu Feng gently pulled out the grass, it actually had no roots!
Yang Lianghe was not idle, he was relieved to see Mu Feng pull out the grass, took out an awl, knocked down a small piece of the stone that the grass was attached to just now, and put it in Mu Feng's hand, only to see that the herb was attached to the stone, as if it had a rhizome.
At the moment of pulling the weeds, the surrounding aura underwent a qualitative change, with the three people as the center, there seemed to be a vibration under the feet that spread out from the soil, and the surrounding branches were all shasling, and the leaves that were still green on the trees withered overnight, as if they had suddenly entered late autumn.
Yang Lianghe said, "The eye of the array has been removed, and this forest has lost its previous vitality, but they will not die, and this will allow them to continue to live with the life left by the Yang Array, as for the future, it means to look at nature." That's the end of the matter. ”
Yang Lianghe said and took the stone grass from Mu Feng's hand, and the grass did not continue to attack Yang Lianghe, but shook the leaves at him after Yang Lianghe poured a few drops of unknown talisman water on the stone.
Mu Feng looked at Yang Liang and Bao Bao with this herb, and twitched the corners of his mouth, he really didn't know that Lao Yang liked to raise plants. "I said Lao Yang, do you know what kind of grass this is? Such a baby? ”
Yang Lianghe touched the herb and smiled, "I'm just guessing, it's very likely to be the legendary Li." It is recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas that it is shaped like a black leek, grows on stones, and sometimes grows from wood, which has the miraculous effect of treating heartache. In fact, it is not only a cure for heartache, its fragrance can make people forget their troubles. It is said that depression is the only way to get sick, and forgetting worries is a good cure for disease, so this grass is really difficult to find, and it is understandable why it is necessary to use the Qiqi Yang Restoration Array to cultivate. I haven't heard anyone see it in years. ”
And this thing? Mu Feng decided to ask Di Jiang if he had seen it.
Ying Wei walked at the end, he looked at Mu Feng and Yang Lianghe in front of him without speaking, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Di Jiang flew in the valley with the dragon egg, and it suddenly felt the change in the breath in the valley, it seems that Mu Feng and they have made a move, this speed is fast, why don't you wait for them.
Let's go and meet.
