At this time, the Qingshan patriarch slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were hazy, and he held Shui Gu's hand:

"Aunt Shui, are you here?"

Shui Gu: "Of course it's me, how can I not come!"

Patriarch Qingshan: "Holding the hand of the son, there are no regrets in this life......"

Shui Gu: "What nonsense, you'll be fine, you must not be fine! It's been decades, and you can't break through the Six Realms, so why are you so confused and take such a risk?"

The patriarch of Qingshan said to himself: "When this life is about to end, I understand that my heart and my world are only you. I'm not thinking about you back then, I'm just thinking about you now, no matter what time it was, it was you back then. You are wrong, how can you be the woman I use to prove my achievements, my achievements all belong to you, and I want to prove me in front of you. ...... If the gods give me another chance, will you promise me?"

Shui Gu's tears couldn't help but flow, she found that she seemed to be a little late, even if she tried her best, she couldn't subdue the fire poison raging in the Qingshan patriarch's body, she couldn't help but panic, and replied crying: "As long as you are okay, I will promise you." In fact, decades ago, I wanted to promise you in my heart, I hope you don't blame me......"

Patriarch Qingshan didn't know whether he was awake or confused, but he heard these words very clearly, and muttered: "How could I blame you, I just want to be good to you." ...... To be able to hold your hand in your arms is a blessing in this life. ”

As she spoke, Shui Gu noticed that the fire poison in Patriarch Qingshan's body had gradually been controlled, her body was still hot but no longer so hot, and her hands had regained a trace of warmth. If this is the case, it can also save his life, but the medicinal properties of the five-colored divine lotus will definitely be wasted, and the Qingshan patriarch will also suffer serious internal injuries. For a long time, it is necessary to dissolve the residual fire poison in the body.

Shui Gu was no longer so scared, but she was distressed, hugged the Qingshan Patriarch and cried while saying, "How can you be so stupid, almost gone." How could the mountain god let you swallow this petal and not tell you about the danger in it?"

Speaking of this, Shui Gu suddenly paused. Because she thought of the mountain god, she only cared about herself to save the Qingshan patriarch just now, and the mountain god must have a better way. She was on the altar, and sat in the center of the throne with a slight movement, one hand still holding the hand of the Qingshan Patriarch tightly, and she collected her mind. He called out in the Genshin: "Mountain God, are you there?"

The voice of the mountain god rang out, "I've been watching you." You are good at refining medicine, not because I taught you, but after cultivating the essence of the essence, you pay attention to distinguishing and sensing various physical properties, and weave water cloth for many years. It also makes your consciousness extraordinarily subtle. You must want to ask me how to help Patriarch Qingshan, not only to let him have no worries about his life, but also not to leave internal injuries, you can do this. ”

Shui Gu had hope in her heart, and hurriedly said: "I can barely dissolve the fire poison, and the Qingshan Patriarch has cultivated profoundly, and it can be slowly dispersed by itself in the future." But it's impossible not to be injured, and I don't know how long it will take to recover. ”

Mountain God: "He took the wrong medicine, and both of you are very sick! ”

Shui Gu: "Do you mean that the five-colored petals on this altar can be given to him again? If so, I want to take one of the other four colors." ”

The mountain god smiled: "It's important to save people, I will give you the magic medicine you need, but have you figured out how to save him?"

Shui Gu hesitated and said, "If you follow the usual method." The five-colored petals should be melted together and turned into bait and slowly refined and absorbed. However, the Qingshan Patriarch has already taken a red petal, and I don't know how to reconcile this medicinal property in the body and in the body. ”

Mountain God: "You really know more about the spiritual effect of the Divine Lotus than the Patriarch of Qingshan, since the skill of external refining is no longer good." I'll teach you a method that can not only succeed, but also make a great contribution to the cultivation of both of you. ”

With the words, he imprinted a divine thought into the Shui Gu Yuan Shen. Shui Gu was stunned, and then her face turned red: "This, is it okay to do this?"

The mountain god's voice said unhurriedly: "If you want to save him, you are willing to save him like this, of course you can." If you don't, I promise he won't die. ”

Shui Gu: "But the throne on this altar can only accommodate one person to sit still, how do you guide the Qingshan Patriarch?"

Mountain God: "Whoever said that only one person can sit on this throne, it's just a matter of posture, I'll tell you what you can do." ...... Patriarch Qingshan doesn't have to worry about his life for the time being, so you should prepare first. ”

Since Shui Gu had already decided, she didn't hesitate, and there were four other petals of various colors flying up on the altar, turning into light in the air, and they all merged into her form and spirit, and then she held the Qingshan Patriarch in her arms. A few more stamens also flew up and turned into a five-colored light curtain around them, flickering and circulating, making the figures of the two of them hazy. Another lotus leaf flew out of the lotus pond, scattered into rain and dew and sprinkled in the light curtain.

The mountain god told Shui Gu that the Qingshan Patriarch did not dissolve the medicinal properties of the petals, and the Shui Gu could take the other four petals to sympathize with the Qingshan Patriarch's spiritual energy, and use the remains of the two as furnaces to jointly refine and absorb the spiritual effect of the five-colored divine lotus. To do this, the two must have the same mind, trust each other completely, and be able to unreservedly unfold their spirits.

Patriarch Qingshan's appearance is still a little sober, but it doesn't matter, he just needs to naturally expand the form and spirit and the water gu's spirit to merge. The mountain god asked Shui Gu to use a few more stamens, in order to make the divine medicine more effective, and to disperse the lotus leaf, so that the two human beings could be stable and not disturbed, and it could also moisten the impact of the medicinal power, making it easier to be refined and absorbed.

The mountain god has made a lot of money, if there is no such thing, the Qingshan patriarch and the water aunt probably do not have such good luck. The two of them have entered a state of sympathetic integration of divine energy, body and mind as one, and then dissolve and absorb the magic medicine in this fixed state. From the first realm to the fifth realm, there are various feelings and impacts in the form and gods, including indescribable physical and mental experiences, there is no need to elaborate on them one by one, they still need time, at least it is impossible to leave on the same day.

......

The "cultivation" of the Qingshan patriarch and Shui Gu began in the afternoon, and Baoyu rushed to the outside of the Taihao ruins at sunset, and when Xiaotian arrived again, it was already the second half of the night.

Three days and three nights of non-stop running between the snow-capped mountains of the plateau have stimulated the greatest potential and broken through the limits of the operation of the spirit. The ruins of Taihao surrounded by twisted forests are very special, from the outside it is a very inconspicuous low bush, and the mystery inside cannot be explored, and Baoyu casts his eyes on the starry sky in the distance.

He had been here many times, but each time he was in a hurry to enter the Taihao ruins to cultivate. At this moment, he sat under the starry sky of the plateau, and his position was at the top of the rolling mountains, and his vision was extremely wide. The stars are so bright and mysterious, the canopy seems to be hanging down behind the distant mountains, as if standing on the top of the distant mountain, reaching out to pluck the stars.

The biting cold wind of the high plains blew at night, but Baoyu was not cold, he felt the breath of everything in heaven and earth, and he seemed to be swimming endlessly in the meditation. It was the first time he had left the Taihao Ruins and sat down to cultivate at the top of this group of peaks, feeling like he had jumped out of a strange small world and integrated into the vast and infinite world.

In the second half of the night, the wind gradually became stronger, and snow fell on the plateau. Xiao Tian sat down not far from Baoyu, and when the wind blew not far in front of it, it dissolved, and the snowflakes could not fall on the dog's hair. And Baoyu sat there covered in snow, and none of the snowflakes on his body melted. He is in a state of inner constriction, unfolding the primordial spirit to taste all the scenery between heaven and earth.

When the sun rose the next day, the wind had died down, and the snow was shining on the horizon. The snow did not cover all places, many steep rock walls and tall vegetation were still exposed to the sun, and the sky was so clear, and all kinds of light and colors were intertwined and distributed between the sky and the earth, like a most magical painting.

Aoyama and Shui Gu finally walked out of the twisted woods and climbed to the edge of the small basin, and the first thing they saw was that Xiaotian was sitting not far away, and there was a "snowman" sitting on the top of the mountain high up.

The appearance of Qingshan has not changed, but it feels like a lot younger, refreshed and calm, as if with the god of the mountain. Shui Gu and Qingshan walked side by side, their expressions were gentle like water, with a hint of girlish shyness and softness. The two of them are like a landscape coming out of a painting.

Their experience of this day is actually very simple to say. The mountain god just told the Qingshan patriarch to take a petal, and the Qingshan patriarch took it, and sure enough, something went wrong, and then the water girl came and untied the knot in her heart, and under the guidance of the mountain god, not only rescued the Qingshan patriarch, but also both of them got a big chance to create.

The mountain god didn't say that this was the way he and Baoyu discussed, but if the two of them were smart enough, it was impossible not to have doubts about it afterwards. But after dawn, the two walked out of the Taihao ruins hand in hand, all of this didn't matter, and the Qingshan Patriarch and Shui Gu would not ask any more questions. If you have to give an explanation, then all this is the guidance of the mountain god they have believed in since childhood, and Baoyu, a child, helped him.

They were originally holding hands, but when they saw Xiao Tian, they quietly let go of their hands, and unconsciously put on the posture of elders. Baoyu also got up from his seat, the snow was scattered and did not get wet, he ran over and asked in surprise, "Qingshan, Shui Gu, are you okay?"

As soon as I heard this, there was a problem, it was only Qingshan who had something to do, but Baoyu asked "you". Qingshan smiled and reached out and touched his head: "Good boy, Aunt Shui and I really didn't hurt you in vain." It's okay, everything is fine!"

Shui Gu also smiled and said: "Good boy, the mountain god knows that you have been waiting outside, and I have something to say when I asked you to go in, we really don't know how to thank you, it's hard for you as a child!" There was a trace of emotion and sigh in the smile, because the mountain god called Baoyu to go this time, I am afraid that he will say that Baoyu will leave the wilderness, and Shui Gu is very reluctant.

Baoyu entered the Taihao ruins again, took a seat on the white jade altar, and heard the mountain god smile and said, "Child, the matter between your Qingshan and Shuigu has been settled, now it's time to talk about your own affairs." ”

Baoyu: "I know, is it time to leave?"

Mountain God: "I know that you must be very reluctant in your heart, since this is the case, don't think about it, and in the last month, you will retreat and cultivate in the Taihao Ruins." These three days and three nights of hard training through the plateau, and the realization of sitting on the top of the snow peak, will definitely make you feel a new realm of cultivation, at least before you break through the five realms, you should know how to cultivate. ”

Baoyu thought for a moment but replied, "I understand what you mean, you want me to retreat and cultivate with peace of mind. But this month, if I can stay in the clan and do as many things as possible, that is also cultivation. ”

Zhu Ming was stunned, Baoyu didn't accept his suggestion. Cultivation, both hard practice and pure cultivation, blindly hard work can not become a real master, must find the mysterious and indescribable physical and mental realm in Qing cultivation, so he will let Baoyu retreat here for a period of time. But since Baoyu had his own decision, Zhu Ming said: "Okay, you go back first, and come back when the Qingshan Patriarch has made arrangements." ”

Being able to retreat and cultivate in the Taihao ruins is something that many monks dream of, Baoyu is about to leave here, I am afraid it will be difficult to have such a good opportunity, but he chose to stay in the village in the last month before leaving.

Qingshan and Shui Gu stood under a dragon blood treasure tree, holding their voices and whispering quietly. Shui Gu said: "Let Baoyu go to Bayuan alone, and I can't reveal his identity and origin, I always feel uneasy!"

Qingshan comforted: "Don't underestimate Baoyu, he has already cultivated in the Four Realms, and he grew up eating immortal elixir. I think back when I left the wilderness and went to Ba Yuan. It is also a cultivation of the four realms, but in terms of ability and foundation, it is far from catching up with him. ”

Shui Gu: "You were almost thirty years old at that time, and Baoyu was only thirteen years old, can it be the same?"

Patriarch Qingshan smiled and said, "He is sure that he is still a child, and he was brought back to the clan by me back then." I remember what he was like. I watched him grow day by day, but his eyes were always as pure as a baby. She's an amazing kid, and of course she's going to be much better than me, and she's going to have great things to come with in the future. ...... The mountain god taught him a lot, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

Shui Gu: "You say so much. In fact, it's not to comfort yourself not to worry. Of course, Baoyu will have great achievements, and I am convinced. But no matter how much the mountain god taught him, he still needs to face the world beyond the mountain on his own. ”

At this time, Baoyu had already left his seat, walked down the white jade altar and came to the two of them and said, "I just felt very clearly in the fixed seat, Qingshan, your aura is different from the past, just like a magic weapon returning to the invisible. Have you already broken through the Six Realms?"

Qingshan glanced at Shui Gu, nodded and smiled, "Yes, I have broken through the Six Realms, just today at sunrise." ”

The mountain god didn't deceive the patriarch of Qingshan, and taking that petal was a great opportunity to break through the cultivation of the Six Realms, as for the specific process...... It's a bit mysterious. No one knows what he has experienced in his settling state. And Shui Gu has refined and absorbed the spiritual effect of the five-colored divine lotus, and she has also gained a lot, and at this moment, her cultivation has been completed in the five realms and nine turns.

Baoyu smiled: "Congratulations to Qingshan, congratulations to Shuigu...... Qingshan, you have already cultivated the Six Realms, and you should complete the cultivation of the Elite Jue next. ”

Qingshan said: "If you want to cultivate the Jinghua Jue, you must first have the cultivation of the Six Realms, but this cultivation of the mountain god has another explanation. ...... You take Xiaotian back to the village first, Shui Gu and I still have something to ask the mountain god. ”

Baoyu obediently took Xiaotian away, and this time he was not in a hurry. Instead, you can walk slowly on the plateau. Xiao Tian followed him, looking curiously at the surrounding mountains and rivers, as if he had made a new discovery, as if he was appreciating something. A dog can also learn to appreciate the scenery, which is undoubtedly one of the signs of the gradual maturity of the mind.

Aoyama walked into the ruins and sat down on the altar. He called respectfully: "Mountain God, I am amazed and admired that you can make such an achievement for a child. How did you teach Baoyu, and what did you teach him?"

The first person who answered him sighed, only to hear the mountain god say: "Baoyu watched the water Gu spinning cloth back then, and since he entered the first realm of cultivation, he didn't know that he was cultivating. And over the years, I have only guided him to discover this world, and I have not passed on any secret cultivation methods to him. Now that he has cultivated the Essence Formula, he is still not taught by me. These days, I have introduced to him all kinds of people and things in the world, and he should have told you everything. ”

The clansmen of the tribe and Huahai Village all thought that Baoyu was a master secretly cultivated by Qingshan and Shuigu, and kept it a secret from the outside world, but he could play an important role at a critical moment. Of course, Qingshan and Shuigu believe that Baoyu was taught by the mountain god and he has been inherited by the mountain god.

The mountain gods are the gods in their minds, worshiped and guided by them from an early age. Although the patriarch of Qingshan would not question the mountain god, it was impossible not to be curious, he wanted to know what Baoyu had learned during this time, but he got such an answer. Although he knew that the mountain god had never taught Baoyu any cultivation secret method, he still couldn't believe it.

The water girl standing by the altar spoke, "Baoyu has always been cultivating on his own, and you are just explaining to him what cultivation is?"

Standing by the altar, how could Shui Gu hear the words of the mountain god? Because the Qingshan patriarch had broken through the cultivation of the Six Realms and mastered the means of divine thoughts, when he communicated with the mountain gods, he sent divine thoughts to Shui Gu to convey the contents of the exchanges. It's a bizarre way of talking, and it's like three people discussing it at the same time.

The mountain god replied again: "That's true, what I told Baoyu is only my opinions and perceptions of cultivation, and I don't know if it's completely correct, and he still needs to confirm it himself." This child's cultivation is the way of the Dharma, and I also hope that he can confirm the transcendent avenue that already exists between heaven and earth, and now it is just the beginning. ”

When Shui Gu heard this, she felt even more uneasy, and asked again: "Shall we just let Baoyu go to Bayuan alone? You haven't even taught him any magical powers!"

The mountain god smiled helplessly: "I didn't teach him, maybe it's better than teaching him, when the Yu Nation raided the tribe, his coping methods were also completely out of the comprehension of the cultivation realm." If you're not sure, try to help him prepare, including what he's going to take. ”

Shui Gu: "Traveling away from home, he needs too many things, but he can't carry a lot with him, I'm worrying." ”

Mountain God: "Do you want him to carry the village and this wilderness away?" A child can't bring much with him, but that's okay, even if you are prepared, I have my own way to let him take them all. ”

The patriarch of Qingshan was pleasantly surprised: "Then thank you to the mountain god! In fact, what to bring is secondary, I have also been to Bayuan back then, and now I know the situation there." Hooligans are often interrogated and high-profile, and it may be difficult for you to ask this child not to reveal his identity. ”

In that era, the traffic was backward and the information was blocked, and even in the relatively prosperous vast Ba Yuan, the vast majority of people still lived in a semi-closed state. People rarely leave the village for a long journey, let alone run around with nothing to do. Those who leave their homes and go far away are called "hooligans" by the inhabitants of the places they go, and those who wander around without a fixed place are called "hooligans".

Many village residents rarely see strangers on weekdays, and hooligans walking around will inevitably attract attention, and their origin will also be checked by various checkpoints. In all countries, there are very few floating populations, except for caravans and civil servants who go out to perform their duties. Since Baoyu can't tell her identity, how can she walk around?

The mountain god replied: "Baoyu has the magic power of the four realms, and he uses a little trick to hide people's eyes and ears, and there is no problem in passing the level, but it is really not possible, and he can also take a detour through the wilderness." ”

Patriarch Qingshan: "The wilderness on the Ba Yuan is also full of dangers, and the cultivation of the Four Realms is not enough to ensure your own safety. Besides, when Baoyu leaves the mountains, he wants to go back into the wilderness? He can't help but deal with people, and there are also many masters in the densely populated land. The cultivation of the Four Realms can cast spells to deceive the ears and eyes of ordinary people, but it can't deceive those masters, which is even more suspicious. ”

The mountain god smiled: "Speaking of which, you are worried that this child is too young to hide it when he is interrogated. If you want to solve this problem, it is simple, you give him the token of the 'common work of the country', and he will not have any trouble. ”

Shui Gu praised: "Brilliant plan! You don't need that thing anyway, just let Baoyu take it." There is no sign of Shanshui City on it, it is a token given by the monarch, symbolizing a kind of identity. ”

Monks living in the territory of each city or above can register as co-workers with the master as long as they wish, and they are not only respected but also receive offerings from the city. And on the Ba Yuan, there are not only the co-workers of the cities, but also the co-workers of the whole country. The "common work of the country" usually requires more than five realms of cultivation, and the tokens owned are given by the monarch and are produced and issued by the Gongzheng people in the national capital.

As the name suggests, they are supported by the state and contribute to the major affairs of the country, and they are also called "national workers" among the people, and their status is not lower than that of the engineers in the cities.

The requests made by the national workers are often to provide accommodation, servants, etc., or to mobilize people to help some favors or find something, and the city lords and the chiefs of the villages will often receive them warmly and provide all kinds of conveniences.
