Chapter 848: Fusang Tree
I hugged him from behind and said, "So what? There is always a way, even if we have traveled through the three thousand worlds and the three thousand small worlds, we can always find a way. ”
Dongyue raised his hand, gently held my hand, and said, "Anyway, let's get rid of Congji first." This cancer must not let him live anymore. ”
Dongyue nodded slowly.
After a long flight of one day and one night, we finally arrived at the legendary island of Fuso.
Fuso Island is an island located in the extreme east of the Heavenly Realm, and there is only one towering tree on the island, which is the famous Fuso Tree.
As early as in "Chu Ci, Nine Songs, Dongjun", this tree was mentioned, and it was also mentioned in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: Overseas Eastern Longitude" that this tree was the place where the sun was born.
This is a sacred tree that has existed since ancient times, and its age can be traced back to the time when Pangu opened the world, which is much older than the age of the Emperor of Heaven.
This was the first time I had seen the legendary Fuso tree, which was as tall as the sky and had countless branches stretching out in all directions.
However, it does not have leaves.
From a distance, you can only see countless branches, it looks like it is dead, but in fact, it is very vibrant, and I am afraid that it will not die until the day of the destruction of this small world.
We came to the bottom of the tree, and its trunk was very large, as big as a skyscraper.
I was about to reach out and touch the trunk of the tree, but Dongyue stopped me, he picked up a stone and threw it on the trunk, and the stone burned all at once, and soon burned into a pile of sand.
"This is the sacred tree where the sun was born." He said, "You are still a mortal, and you must not touch it, or you will be burned to char in an instant, like that stone." ”
I was startled, my heart was full of awe, and I wanted to use my divine sense to sweep the trees for flowers, but I found that my divine sense seemed to be suppressed, and I couldn't reach out at all.
"I'll do it anyway." Dongyue said, "Your cultivation is too low, and you have been suppressed by the power of the Divine Tree. ”
He swept around the tree with his senses, and I asked expectantly, "How's it going?" ”
He shook his head in silence.
In fact, I understand in my heart that the hibiscus tree has not bloomed for millions of years, so how can it bloom inexplicably for us?
The rise and fall of the Three Realms has no meaning at all in the eyes of the Divine Tree, and even if the Three Realms are destroyed, it still stands here, waiting for the emergence of the next era.
I suddenly thought of something and said, "I have a way!" ”
Dongyue asked, "What's the way?" ”
I took out a mirror from the Qiankun bag and said, "This is the Cosmic Flood Mirror, which can speed up the growth of plants, I wonder if it will have an effect on the Fusang tree?" ”
Dongyue asked in surprise, "Where did you get this artifact?" ”
I said, "It's just a coincidence." ”
Dongyue looked at the mirror carefully and said, "This cosmic desolate mirror is not something from our world, but from other worlds, but I don't know where it comes from. Maybe...... It's really useful. ”
I pinched a trick and pointed the mirror at the Fuso tree, and then pinched a trick and pointed at the mirror, and the mirror immediately emitted a thousand rays of light and hit the Fuso tree.
However, the hibiscus did not react at all.
Time passed minute by minute, and it stands to reason that hundreds of years should have passed, but the hibiscus tree still did not change in the slightest.
Don't...... The Cosmic Desolation Mirror is useless against the Fuso tree?
"No, it works." Dongyue said, "Look at that scar. ”
I took a closer look, and there was a scar on the trunk that seemed to be a little bigger than before?
"Even after thousands of years, the hibiscus tree has changed very little, so it looks like it hasn't changed." Dongyue said, "But if you look closely at the lines on the trunk, they have changed." ”
I nodded and continued to wait.
As the minutes ticked by, we waited under the tree for three days and three nights, and it seemed that the five-day deadline was approaching, but the hibiscus tree never bloomed, and my heart gradually became agitated.
The mortal world still doesn't know what happened, and how many people died in the plague, if we can't get the hibiscus back, the mortal world will be finished.
At this moment, a voice came from behind him, saying, "Don't bother with it, the hibiscus tree will not bloom." ”
We were both startled, and when we turned around, we saw a man with a wine gourd on his back, with a soft face, lying on a white cloud, his face was red, and his face smelled of wine.
Dongyue looked him up and down and said, "Your Excellency?" ”
"Me? I'm just a nobody, and I can't get into the eyes of the emperor. The young drunkard took the gourd from his back, poured it into his mouth, took several sips, and burped contentedly.
I asked, "How do you know that the hibiscus tree will not bloom?" ”
The drunkard laughed twice and said, "Because the Fuso tree does not want to bloom, if it does not want to, you force it to bloom, can it be happy?" ”
I was silent for a moment, and then said, "Then how can the Fuso tree be willing to bloom?" ”
The drunkard took another sip of wine, shook his head, and said, "It won't bloom at any point, so let's go." ”
With that, he rode the clouds and turned and flew into the distance.
Dongyue and I glanced at each other and said, "Alas, forget it, let's drink some wine, eat some side dishes, and take a rest, it's not in vain." ”
After speaking, he took out a jar of wine, patted the mud, and a rich fragrance wafted out, and the whole world seemed to be intoxicated by the aroma of wine.
Suddenly, the young man came back, sniffed, and said, "What a fragrant wine." ”
I poured two glasses out, one glass with Dongyue, the wine was in my throat, mellow and sweet, and we both showed satisfied expressions.
The young man seemed to be a drunkard, and he scratched his ears and cheeks, and said, "Give me a cup to taste." ”
Dongyue said lightly: "We don't even know Your Excellency's name, and if we don't know your name, we're not friends, so how can we drink together?" ”
As he spoke, I poured him another glass, and he drank it all, and the young man hurriedly said, "How can you drink such a good wine?" It should be carefully tasted. ”
The two of us will soon finish drinking a jar of wine, and the young man hurriedly said, "In this way, you give me a drink, and I will tell you how to make the Fuso tree bloom!" ”
The two of us were overjoyed, turned our heads sideways and asked, "Really?" ”
"Of course it's true." He said.
I shook my head and said, "I don't believe it, you're not a hibiscus tree, how can you know how to make it bloom?" ”
"You don't believe me?" The young man snorted coldly and said unconvinced, "I'll show you today." ”
As soon as he pointed with his hand, a bud actually grew on the Fusang tree.
Dongyue arched his hand at him and said, "I've seen the Fusang Tree God." ”
The Fusang Tree God snorted from his nose and said, "Knowing that I am the Fusang Tree God, why don't you hurry up and bring me the wine!" ”
I quickly poured him a glass of wine, and he took a sip of it, and immediately showed a smile of satisfaction and delight.
"Good wine! It's really good wine! He said, "Over the years, I have tasted all the wines in the world, whether it is the peach blossom fairy wine in Yaochi or the monkey wine in the mortal world, I have tasted it, but I have never tasted such a delicious taste." What kind of wine is this? ”
I said, "If you go back to your predecessors, this wine is made from materials from another world and several precious spiritual plants from the Netherworld. That other world is a civilization of cultivating immortals, so there are countless kinds of precious spiritual plants, I have carefully selected for a long time, pondered the recipe for a long time, and only then did I make this jar of wine, and there will be no more. ”
The god of the Fuso tree wrapped the wine in his mouth and tasted it carefully, and we drank a few glasses together, and he said, "Since you are here for the Fuso flowers, why don't you ask me to let the flowers bloom?" ”
Dongyue said: "Since the senior of the tree god is willing to show up to see us, it means that he has already agreed to our request, and we only need to thank the seniors." ”
The Fusang Tree God glanced at him and said, "You're smart!" I don't want it to bloom! ”
I hurriedly said, "Senior, don't be angry with him, he can't speak." Come, come, drink. ”
He took another drink, I looked at his face, and said, "Senior, now that the mortal virus is raging, the balance of the Three Realms has been broken, and the lives have been destroyed. I also ask my predecessors to have mercy on the living beings, give us a flower, and let us save the world from fire and water. ”
With that, I bowed deeply to him, and he nodded, saying, "That's the right attitude." ”
He touched his chin and continued, "It's not impossible for me to help you. ”
The two of us were overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "If the predecessor has any instructions, just say, as long as we can do it, we will do it." ”
He looked at the two of us and said, "It's not hard for me to ask. He looked at Dongyue and said, "You are the Mixed Yuan Infinite Luo Jin Immortal, right?" ”
Dongyue said: "Exactly." ”
The Fusang Tree God said, "With your strength, you can shatter the void and go to other worlds. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and countless branches broke off from the tree, flew down, and landed in front of us.
"I can give you hibiscus, but you must take these branches to other worlds and plant them." He said.
I was a little puzzled and said, "Why is that?" ”
He gave me a blank look and said, "You human beings still know the principle of having more children and more blessings, why don't you allow us to have more descendants of the Fusang tree?" ”
I smiled awkwardly.
He drank another glass of wine and said, "In many years' time, my body will suffer a catastrophe, and these branches are my clones, and if there is a living one in another world, I can be reborn in that world." ”
He looked at us and said, "I want you to swear to the Heart Demon that you must plant all these branches, otherwise your Dao Heart will be damaged, and your cultivation will fall, and you will die with no place to be buried." ”
I was a little anxious and said: "But he is the Emperor of Dongyue, and he wants to manage the underworld, although my cultivation is lowly now, there will always be a time when I cultivate to the Mixed Yuan Wuji Luo Jinxian, and I will issue this poisonous oath." ”
The Fusang Tree God sneered and said, "Who knows if you can cultivate to that level?" I've never invested in potential stocks, and I'm still a potential stock that can't see the future. ”
