Chapter 686: Into the Mountain
。 Zhou Xiaotian's car drove very steadily, and Ye Tian was not in a hurry, and in the evening, they stayed in a small city in Anhui for a day, and arrived in Wuhan the next day.
There was still a distance of four or five hundred kilometers from Wuhan to Muyu Town, the entrance of Shennongjia, and it was not until the evening of the third day that Ye Tian's car drove into the town.
Muyu Town is located in the south of Shennongjia, surrounded by dense scenic spots and picturesque scenery, it is an important economic town in Shennongjia Forest District, a tourist reception center town, and the south gate of opening to the outside world.
"Master, there are quite a few people here, all of them are here to travel, right?"
Zhou Xiaotian drove to the door of a wooden hotel, where there were seven or eight cars with Wuhan license plates, apparently tourists living there.
"Maybe, Xiaotian, go through the formalities, let's live here today."
Ye Tian nodded, and whistled at Maotou, who was originally sleeping in the back row, rushed to Ye Tian's shoulder like lightning and wrapped around Ye Tian's neck, looking like a precious mink scarf.
November has entered the winter, this place close to the mountains and forests gives people a feeling of autumn breeze, Ye Tian is dressed like this, but it will not make people feel weird.
The inn is a bit like a farmhouse in the capital, and there is a bonfire show at night, and it is not until 12 o'clock in the evening that the surroundings gradually fall silent.
"The ancients said that all plants and trees have spirits, and it seems to be reasonable."
Although there was no true qi in his body, he meditated and cultivated spiritual power, and when the surroundings were quiet, Ye Tian sat cross-legged on the bed, carefully feeling the aura of heaven and earth around him.
Although the concentration of aura here is not as good as that of the Gathering Spirit Array in Hong Kong, the wisps of aura have a majestic vitality, giving people a very fresh feeling.
"The aura in the mountains is still more immeasurable than the essence of the sea. But this vitality is missing! ”
After feeling it carefully, Ye Tian found out the difference between the two, in terms of quality alone, it is undoubtedly that the heaven and earth vitality on the periphery of Shennongjia is superior. But in terms of quantity, the effect of Ye Tianju Spirit Array is better.
"Stinky boy, that's really amazing!"
Ye Tian suddenly felt a trace of disorder in the vitality around his body, and when he looked back, the hairy head lying on the windowsill of the room was absorbing the trace of vitality that was free from heaven and earth into his body.
"Twitter ......"
seemed to feel Ye Tian's gaze, and Mao Tou opened his eyes lazily. After shouting at Ye Tian, he returned to his state just now.
"If this little guy continues to cultivate like this, he won't really become a refined human form, right?"
Such a thought suddenly popped up in Ye Tian's mind, but then he dispelled it, the black Jiao in Changbai Mountain was a hundred times more hairy, didn't he still wear that skin?
Shaking his head, Ye Tian entered the deep meditation, but he didn't notice it. In this place, the speed at which the primordial spirit absorbs the aura seems to be better than that in the spirit gathering array.
Nothing was said all night. After breakfast the next morning, Ye Tian paid for ten days' accommodation and left the car at the hotel.
Looking at the big mountaineering bag that was almost as tall as him on the apprentice's back, Ye Tian said, "Xiaotian, can I help you carry some of it?" ”
"No, Master, that's nothing." Zhou Xiaotian shook his head, after entering the dark strength cultivation, a lot of impurities in his body were also discharged, and his physical fitness was far from comparable back then.
"No wonder there are still tourists this month?"
Come to the town entrance to the mountain. The number of tourists gradually increased, because here, there is the Shennong Altar built by the mountain, which is also the most famous scenic spot in Muyu Town.
Ye Tian's master and apprentice walked very quickly, and after more than ten minutes, they were standing on the altar of Shennong. It is a huge square that can accommodate thousands of people. …,
"No, this is a feng shui array?"
Standing on the square, Ye Tian's complexion changes suddenly, the large circle pattern in the middle of the square represents the sky, the center of the circle is set up with a square, representing the ground, in the square pattern, the colorful stones are divided into five elements: wood, fire, earth, metal and water.
At the front end of the square, there are two 10-meter-high totem poles with ox heads carved on them.
Behind the totem pole are two large reliefs showing the great achievements of Shennong's life, and there is an altar between the totem pole and the relief. The altar is completely set up according to the specifications of the altar of the ancient emperor, and the sacrificial vessels made of bronze are arranged in the middle, and the incense burner, incense case, golden bell, and Dharma drum are arranged in front of the altar, which is solemn and solemn.
Laymen may think that this is a tribute to the Shennong clan by later generations, but in Ye Tian's eyes, this is clearly a Qiankun Five Elements Formation.
The two qi of heaven and earth yin and yang were transformed by the five elements formation, and the rich aura rushed straight up, corresponding to the Temple of Heaven built against the mountain in front of him.
"Master, the aura here doesn't seem to be worse than the aura of the house in Hong Kong?"
Although Zhou Xiaotian's cultivation is not enough, he has already been able to absorb spiritual energy to exercise his body, and after coming here, he suddenly noticed a difference.
"That's right, this is a master's arrangement, go, go up and have a look!"
Ye Tian nodded, the difficulty of building this big array was no worse than the spirit gathering array he had in Hong Kong, but Ye Tian couldn't see what the purpose of the people who set up the array was?
Ye Tian counted it, from the Temple of Earth to the Temple of Heaven to pass through 243 steps, scoring five levels, the first level is 9 steps, called "Ming Jiu", and the remaining four levels are ...... steps, are all multiples of nine, called "dark nine".
In the eyes of ordinary people, this design of the "Ninth Five-Year Supreme" implies the supreme status of Shennong, but when Ye Tian walked on it, he felt a sense of unity between heaven and man.
Come to the viewing platform in front of the statue of Shennong in the Temple of Heaven, look up at the statue of Shennong, the head of the ox is human, the eyes are slightly closed, the majesty is simple, as if quietly thinking about the universe, the statue does not have a base, the body rises from the ground, the blue sky above the head, and the body is covered with colorful clouds.
"This Qiankun Five Elements Formation is not used to sacrifice Shennong, what do they do?"
After looking around, Ye Tian showed a puzzled look on his face, because the aura from the Temple of Earth did not act on the Temple of Heaven, but passed through the Temple of Heaven and poured into a road up the mountain.
The weather in the mountains in November was cold, and those tourists would not go up again when they almost reached the Temple of Earth, and there were only two masters and apprentices in the entire Temple of Heaven at this time.
"Master, let's go!" Seeing Ye Tian standing in front of the statue of Shennong for a long time, Zhou Xiaotian couldn't help but say hello, the mountain wind here is very strong, and he was afraid that Ye Tian, who was recuperating from his injuries, couldn't stand it.
"Okay, Xiaotian, the mountain road is steep, you should be careful." Ye Tian nodded, since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't want to, maybe when he got to the place where the "bazaar" was, all the doubts could be easily solved.
The Temple of Heaven is built facing the mountain, there is a stone step path leading to the foot of the mountain in the mountain, the spiritual energy condensed under the mountain accumulates and does not disperse, from a distance, it looks like a white cloud, and the trail is rendered like a road to the heavens.
"Huh? How did it disappear? ”
After walking about five hundred meters into the mountain, he had already climbed down the mountain beam, and Ye Tian suddenly found that the aura in front of him suddenly became thinner, and it seemed that he had suddenly disappeared here.
"Master, there are a lot of good things in this mountain!" Zhou Xiaotian didn't have Ye Tian's keen sensibility, he was looking at the scenery in the mountains with great interest at this time.
"What a great place!"
After hearing the apprentice's words, Ye Tian's attention was on the mountain, between the middle of the mountain, a group of macaques were jumping on the treetops, and between the rocky cliffs, some medicinal herbs could be faintly seen.
And Ye Tian is at the foot of this mountain, the scenery is also excellent, here the mountains are surrounded, the trees are verdant, the waterfall pours down from the cliff, the jade beads splash, the water in the pool is crystal clear, and the strange stones in the pool are in various forms. …,
It's just that this place is too close to Muyu Town, and many places in the mountains have shown traces of man-made carving, but in Ye Tian's eyes, it has become a failure.
After staying at the foot of the mountain for a while, Ye Tian and the others climbed the mountain along the path, and at a gentle slope behind the mountain, a row of bungalows appeared.
"Master, it's a farmhouse."
At this time, it was already noon, looking at the sign on the side of the road, Zhou Xiaotian said, "Let's have dinner here and then enter the mountain, right?" ”
"Okay, Xiaotian, the days after entering the mountain are not very easy, you should be mentally prepared."
Ye Tian nodded, according to the map in his knowledge of the sea, the bazaar is at least a hundred kilometers away from here, and with two days, I am afraid it will take at least several days to walk.
"Two, do you still have to go into the mountains in this weather? It may snow in the mountains in a few days! Seeing Ye Tian and the others walking into the yard, the middle-aged man who was sitting in the yard picking wild vegetables hurriedly greeted him.
"Hehe, I heard that Shennongjia has a strange winding path, let's not go far, let's go inside and come out."
Ye Tian shook hands with the middle-aged man, took out a pack of cigarettes, opened it, handed one over and said, "Big brother lives here, it's not very convenient to get in and out usually, right?" This oil, salt, sauce and vinegar have to be bought from outside? ”
"It's okay, I can buy it once for half a year, I grow my own vegetables, and I still have pigs in the back."
The middle-aged man took the cigarette handed over by Ye Tian, smelled it but didn't light it, hung it on his ear and said, "I'm used to it, how do I feel uncomfortable when I get down the mountain, it's not coming back." ”
In fact, in the periphery of Shennongjia, there were originally many villages, and later these villagers moved out of the mountains, but there are also nostalgia for this place, like this middle-aged man who renovated his family's house and started a farmhouse.
"you, there's a guest, stir-fry a few vegetables and steam the rice!"
The middle-aged man turned around and shouted, and a woman in her forties walked out of the house, smiled at Ye Tian and the others, and packed up the wild vegetables on the ground into the house.
"This big brother, I heard that there are wild people in the mountains, I don't know if it's real or fake?" Ye Tian showed a curious look on his face, and put on the middle-aged man's words...... The third watch, stay up until midnight, brothers support a monthly ticket recommendation ticket, the fat man of the card wants to die, it's really terrible!. (To be continued) RQ
