185, Master of Wisdom
"No one knows what's going on here." Luo Qi's face was solemn, "Master Wisdom has invited many people to check, but no abnormalities have been found. But the mountain is sick and is dying fast, and maybe soon it will be a barren place. ”
Jiang Tong seemed to think of something, and broke out in a cold sweat.
Half a year ago, she discovered the treasure of heaven and earth - Eight Immortal Grass in the Jingxin Temple. This three-petaled Eight Immortal Grass can triple the aura within a radius of thirty meters. But at that time, the Eight Immortal Grass was sick, and she brought the Eight Immortal Grass home, and now it is raised in the Shapan Spirit Plantation, which has reached the age of five hundred years, and has grown five petals, which can radiate fifty meters.
In addition to improving the aura, the Eight Immortal Grass itself can nourish the surrounding environment, making trees and flowers grow more prosperous, and making them full of vitality. Could it be that the withering of Wenshi Peak was because she took away the Eight Immortal Grass?
No, that's not right.
She thought about it carefully, although it could nourish flowers and trees, after all, it was only three hundred years old, and its influence was limited, so it could not nourish the entire mountain at all. Even if it were removed, at most, the environment inside the temple would deteriorate, and it would be impossible to make the entire mountain lifeless.
Something must have happened inside this mountain that outsiders don't know.
"Luo Shao, can I meet the Master of Wisdom?" Jiang Tong asked.
"Absolutely." Luo Qi nodded, "I recommended you to the master, and the master admires you very much." You come with me. ”
Flying cars are not allowed in the Wenshi Peak, the two climbed to the top of the mountain, the temple door was open, and there was a teenager sweeping monk on the threshold, who was sitting there in a daze with a broom. Stepping into the temple, there are dead leaves and grass everywhere, only a few burnt high incense sticks are left in the incense burner, and when the wind blows, soot and dead grass fly everywhere.
The incense in the Jingxin Temple used to be prosperous, and there was an endless stream of pilgrims, but now there is no one in sight, only a gray and depressed appearance.
Luo Qi took Jiang Tong around the Daxiong Treasure Hall and came to the remote backyard, where there was originally a towering ancient tree, and the Eight Immortal Grass was found under the ancient tree.
A thousand-year-old tree is a spiritual thing in itself, but it has not yet reached the level of a treasure of heaven and earth, and it will not die lightly. But when Jiang Tong walked into the courtyard, he saw that the tree had no crown, only a bare trunk remained, and the branches were all cut clean, leaving half of the residual wood, which looked desolate and sad.
Jiang Tong was so distressed that he couldn't do it, the thousand-year-old ancient tree had actually become like this.
Luo Qi also seemed to feel it, and sighed lowly: "This yellow cypress tree is the first to wither yellow, all the leaves have fallen, and the branches are scorched black, as if it has been burned. The monks in the temple had to cut off all the branches in order to prevent it from dying completely, but its trunk was still affected, and it was not far from completely dying. ”
With that, he stopped looking at it, and walked straight to the wing room deep in the courtyard, and knocked on the door of the largest meditation room to the south.
"Doctor Jiang has arrived." A crisp and soft voice came from inside the door, "Please come in." ”
Jiang Tong was stunned, this voice sounded so young, like a teenager, and it was a little familiar, where had you heard it? I couldn't remember it for a while.
Luo Qi opened the door, Jiang Tong walked in, but the furnishings of the huge meditation room were very simple, there were almost no scientific and technological supplies, just a table, a chair, a bed, and a tea set.
When Jiang Tong saw the wisdom master sitting cross-legged on the bed with a calm face, he was speechless in shock.
Isn't this the little novice who gave her the Eight Immortal Grass at that time?
"Doctor Jiang, it's been a long time." The Master of Wisdom folded his hands, bowed slightly, and saluted her, and she hurriedly returned the salute: "It turns out that you are the Master of Wisdom, I didn't know that day, how offended, please Haihan." ”
This wisdom master should not be young, maybe he has some natural treasures on his body, or he has cultivated special exercises, so he looks so young.
The master of wisdom smiled: "When ** is to save a small grass, with great compassion, where is the reason to blame?" Thank you, sir. ”
Jiang Tong was a little ashamed, she deceived the heavenly treasure from the master, but the master praised her for being compassionate, which was really a sin.
"I wonder if that little grass is alive?" The Master of Wisdom asked.
"It's been fed, and it's planted in my garden." Jiang Tong smiled and said softly, "That little grass may be because it grows in the land of Buddhism, I always feel that it is very spiritual, with it, I am like an extra friend, I am in a happy mood, and even my cultivation has become easier." ”
She said all the truth, but to the ears of those who did not know, it meant something else.
"It's good to feed you, and the compassion of Jiang Guoyi will definitely bring you good fortune." The master of wisdom smiled and bowed, as if he meant something, Jiang Tong was shocked in his heart, did the master know that it was a spirit plant?
But the Master of Wisdom did not mention the Eight Immortal Grass again, but invited the two to sit down, and called a little novice to come in and pour tea.
After three cups of tea, Jiang Tong opened his mouth and asked, "Master, I don't know when Wenshi Peak began to become like this?" ”
"Two months ago."
Jiang Tong breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, it was not about the Eight Immortal Grass.
"Did anything strange happen before it happened?" Jiang Tong continued to ask, "No matter how small it is, it's okay." ”
The Master of Wisdom pondered for a moment: "Two months ago, on the night of the fifteenth full moon, the yellow cypress tree was still flourishing, and I was meditating in the meditation room, and there was not even a trace of wind around me, but the tree was windless and automatic, and a red light lit up in the dense canopy. But the red light quickly faded away, and I had people examine it closely, but nothing was found. ”
Jiang Tong was slightly shocked: "There is still some distance between your meditation room and that courtyard, and the trees there have moved, you actually know it?" ”
Luo Qi interjected: "Master Wisdom is a high-level martial king, and the entire Zen temple is shrouded in his spiritual power, not to mention that the tree moves, even if a fly flies fly, he can feel it." ”
Jiang Tong was even more shocked, the high-level martial king actually had such a ability, judging from the strength of the cultivator, the wisdom master was already equivalent to the cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building.
King Wu, it is really not comparable to a general.
"So, the root of a qiē is likely to be the red light cluster?" Jiang Tong said thoughtfully.
The Wisdom Master said, "I have personally examined the yellow cypress tree, and I have spent a hundred years in the meditation temple with that tree, and I know it very well, and the old man has even carefully examined every root of it, and still found nothing. Lao Wei really has nothing to do, so he can only turn to Jiang Guoyi for help. ”
Jiang Tong hurriedly waved his hand and said he didn't dare: "Master of Wisdom, I won't tell you, I am indeed a wood-based ability, but even you can't find out the cause, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do, if you can't find the crux of the problem, please don't blame." ”
The Wisdom Master sighed: "If even you can't find it, it is the life of Wenshi Peak, the life of my Meditation Temple, and I will no longer force it." ”
Jiang Tong was a little puzzled in her heart, she and the Master of Wisdom had only met twice in total, why did the Master value her so much?
She glanced at the Master of Wisdom, and her pale and delicate face still looked tranquil, as if she had seen through life and death in the world.
It's like the golden Buddha in the Mahavira Hall.
He was very sick.
The illness in the body of the wisdom master is not just as simple as cultivating defective martial arts.
"Master, I see that you don't look good, why don't I take the pulse for you?" Jiang Tong said tentatively.
"No need." The Wisdom Master lightly refused, "Old Man's broken body, there is nothing to cure, if Jiang Guoyi can cure Wen Shifeng's illness, wouldn't it be more merit than curing my illness?" ”
Since people are unwilling to treat themselves, Jiang Tong will not be reluctant, she got up and said goodbye, came to the yellow cypress tree, sank her divine sense into the dirt, and checked the soil inch by inch, but she never found anything.
She could feel that there was something under the tree, a faint aura lingering between the roots, but she couldn't find the source of the aura.
Taking back his divine sense, Jiang Tong frowned, and Luo Qi stepped forward and said, "Xiao Hitomi, have you found anything?" ”
Jiang Tong was silent for a moment: "I have found a little, but I am not sure yet, I need to go back and prepare, and come back tomorrow." ”
Luo Qi had no choice but to agree, and after saying goodbye to the wisdom master, he sent her home, Jiang Tong was about to open the door, when he suddenly heard Luo Qi say behind him: "You have been promoted again?" ”
Jiang Tong turned his head and glanced at him: "Yes, I just broke through the general." ”
Luo Qi was shocked and looked at her in disbelief: "General? You have just broken through the samurai not long ago, and you have broken through the generals so quickly? ”
"Yes." Jiang Tong said calmly.
Luo Qi's eyes were full of suspicion: "Xiao Hitomi, you didn't use any drugs, right?" Many drugs can improve strength quickly, but there will be terrible sequelae. ”
Although Jiang Tong didn't like Luo Qi, Luo Qi really cared about her, and she couldn't help but give him a good face, so she slowed down her tone and said, "Don't worry, I won't use that kind of drug." ”
Luo Qi seemed to want to say something, but finally nodded: "You have to be careful." ”
Jiang Tong gave him a relieved smile and walked into the door. Luo Qi stood downstairs, his brows furrowed.
He felt that the distance between him and Jiang Tong was getting farther and farther away, as if there was an insurmountable chasm across it, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't cross it.
But he found that this not only did not make him less interested in her, but became more obsessed. Since he was a child, no matter what he wanted, he could always get it easily, but he found that what he wanted most now could not be grasped no matter how hard he tried to reach out.
For the first time, he felt how terrible powerlessness was.
Jiang Tong checked the shielding formation set up in the house and entered the interstellar mall, she looked at the empty surroundings strangely: "Feng Yu, where is the necromancy?" ”RS
