readx;?? This "blood spirit bead" moved again, I subconsciously looked up, only to see a cyclone appear overhead, and the thundercloud that had just formed was dissipating in all directions, and in an instant, it fell into the darkness, hidden and invisible.

It wasn't until the dark clouds in the sky had completely cleared up that I was sure that this bead had the effect of dispelling thunderclouds, and I couldn't help but rejoice in my heart. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Seeing that Sanji was still in a state of sadness, I quickly interrupted her thoughts: "Sanji, can you tell me about the origin and function of this blood spirit bead?" ”

Sanji's expression was a little dazed, and when he saw me ask her, he rubbed his temples vigorously, exhaled lightly, and said, "Let's talk as we go." ”

With that, she took the lead and walked out of Death Valley, followed by Lao Dao and I.

In ancient times, in the early days of the closure of the Land of Heavenly Punishment, the entrance to the Gate of Hell was not only an escape passage for the guardian clan, but also another exit from the Ghost Gate, where demons with high mana often escaped.

These fleeing ghosts and demons have caused chaos in the world, causing the lives near Kunlun Mountain to be devastated, like ghosts, and the people are complaining and fleeing from this place one after another. Later, in order to relieve the suffering of the common people, the gods took action to eliminate these fleeing demons, and killed the demon leader Chi You, and used his blood to refine a blood spirit bead, and then sealed it into a stone tablet with mana to suppress the exit of the ghost gate.

The story is simple and clear, and when you hear it, it is a myth and legend, and the beads of Chiyou's blood are a little scary. However, she still didn't explain, so I continued to ask, "What is so unique about this blood spirit bead?" You say it's an innate spirit treasure, what functions does it have? ”

Sanji's eyes immediately lost focus, and after a long while, he said, "I remember, that just now it was just the legend of the Phoenix Temple, and my senior brother Gordon Living Buddha once told me that this blood spirit bead was not refined by human blood, but from the sap of a 10,000-year-old demon tree called the Dragon's Blood Tree. ”

Lao Dao was suddenly surprised: "Dragon's Blood Tree?!" Are you talking about the sacred tree that is said to grow outside the territory? ”

Sanji nodded and said, "What the Dao Chief said is right, it is the legendary divine tree, and according to legend, the red liquid flowing out of the tree is dragon blood, but this dragon blood tree is called a demon tree outside the territory. ”

I asked, "Extraterritorial?" Could it be a species from outer space? ”

Sanji immediately gave me a blank look and said: "In modern science, extraterritoriality is equivalent to parallel space, or dimensional space, but when I say extraterritorial, I mean outside of China, to be exact, this dracaena belongs to the unique tree species of Africa. ”

No way! It's hard to imagine that the final answer is Africa......

Sanji changed his words: "But in ancient times, China and Africa have not yet interacted, and this dragon's blood tree is not unique to Africa, but it is just the birthplace there. In the western and southern parts of Fujian, Guangdong, and the central and southern parts of Guangxi, there are also this dracaena tree. ”

Later, Sanji explained the reason for this.

The dragon's blood tree, which is called the "10,000-year-old dryad" in Africa, is called the dragon's blood tree because it can also "bleed".

It is said that if you scratch the tree slightly, a sticky substance as red as blood will come out of the trunk. According to local legend, the red liquid that flows from the dragon's blood tree is dragon's blood, because the dragon's blood is spilled on the earth when dragons and elephants fight, which is where the name of the dragon's blood comes from.

"Dragon's blood" is actually a kind of resin, which has many functions, not only the main ingredient of the precious Chinese medicine "blood exhaustion (qilin exhaustion)", which can treat musculoskeletal pain, but also a good preservative and paint raw material. Dracaena is the longest-lived tree on Earth, with a lifespan of more than 8,000 years. It first appeared in the White Dinosaur era and is known as a "living fossil" among plants.

These are the years when countries have been constantly communicating with each other and science and technology are becoming more and more prosperous, and the mystery of the dragon's blood tree has gradually been revealed.

However, there is no clear scientific determination of some mysterious effects of the dragon's blood tree, as well as ancient legends. In particular, some ancient trees that are about 10,000 years old, even with modern scientific and technological means, it is difficult to determine their location and cannot be approached at will.

In Huaxia, this kind of sacred tree also has its own legend, and the saying that the blood of Chiyou is refined into a blood spirit bead has another version in the folk.

Legend has it that in ancient times, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor defeated the demon god Chiyou, and divided his body and buried him all over China. Among them, the essence blood of Chiyou was sprinkled in the southeast of China, and these essence blood was not completely dissipated, but absorbed by a local tree, which is mostly found in the central part of Guangdong, among which the Dinghu Mountain area is the most widely distributed, and this tree is also called Dinghu blood tree.

Dinghu blood tung is about two or three meters high, and its leaves are very heart-shaped. This tree may seem ordinary, but once its thicker branches are broken, or when broken, transparent sap slowly flows out of the breaks, which is inconspicuous at first, but it doesn't take long for the color to turn blood-red, as if blood has flowed. Pinch the core of the tree to be soft, like a "blood vessel", and the liquid is still a little viscous.

The juice of these blood tung trees has great medicinal value, and it is also a material often used by Chinese medicine practitioners and Dan Daoists. It is said that the blood spirit bead is the crystallization of the 10,000-year-old divine tree, which belongs to the innate spirit treasure that can be encountered but not sought, and no one knows the specific effect, because anyone who has obtained the blood spirit bead regards it as a forbidden body, and all its relevant information is kept secret.

Sanji said a lot of legends about the blood spirit beads, but in the end, I realized that she still didn't say anything......

I asked helplessly, "According to what you said, I still have to research and develop the function of this blood spirit bead myself?" ”

Sanchi nodded yes.

Although I feel a little regretful, the previous performance of this thing has already made my heart move, and while we are walking and talking, the surrounding thunderclouds gather and disperse, scatter and gather, but they have never been able to fully form. And whenever the thundercloud was about to condense, the blood spirit bead in my hand would react, and the red light flashed and the thundercloud immediately dispersed.

Needless to say, even if this blood spirit bead has no other function, just eliminating the thundercloud alone is already a rare treasure in the world.

After knowing this effect of the Blood Spirit Bead, our trip was much easier, and we walked out of Death Valley unhindered.

At this time, unconsciously, the sky was already bright, and the night silently turned into day.

Climbing the ridge and turning the col, the outline of the village of Nalingler appeared in front of me. I thought that after the baptism of the heavenly fire meteor, this place would become a scorched earth, and mourning was everywhere.

But when I looked at the foot of the mountain, I saw a noisy scene of surging people and loud voices. The dilapidated village houses were torn down and rebuilt, and there was a busy construction scene at the foot of the mountain.

Although there is no machinery and equipment, the villagers are still full of enthusiasm and the construction scene is in full swing.

Lao Dao's house was also burned by the fire and only the frame remained, looking at the burned rosewood door panel, I couldn't help but feel distressed for Lao Dao, the house was destroyed, we had to go down the mountain directly, ready to go to Utu Meiren Township first.

Soon I saw the old village chief standing on a high platform directing the villagers, and we went up to say hello to him.

Lao Dao communicated with the old village chief in the local language, and then took us down the mountain. I learned from the old village chief that most of the houses in the village were wooden structures and had been almost completely burned down, but fortunately, everyone was very well prepared this time, and the damage was not very serious. The building materials used by the villagers to rebuild their homes are also provided free of charge by the township.

However, he unexpectedly got a message from the old village chief that the provider of these free supplies was not the Utu Meiren Township Government, but a mysterious woman.

According to Lao Dao's retelling, Sanji quickly determined that that woman was the Fengwu Divine Woman!

Although this news made us feel a little surprised, but it was reasonable, the reason for this is that this Jiazi natural disaster is inseparable from the land of heavenly punishment, and the actions of the goddess can be regarded as a kind of compensation for the people in the disaster area by the Phoenix Temple and Bagua City.

Originally, seeing the scene after the disaster in the village, Sanji was going to take the initiative to donate, but unfortunately, she didn't have a penny on her, and now she was full of joy when she learned that the Fengwu Goddess had made arrangements.

The three of us soon walked to the entrance of the village, and the wreckage of an off-road vehicle on the side of the village road was particularly dazzling, I stepped forward to investigate, and felt a burst of angina, although the car is only domestic, but it also costs more than 200,000 ah, and after returning to the city, I will lose money to the car rental company.
