Chapter 34: A Dream Is Not a Dream
Ten years ago, during the summer vacation, Lan Chengyu always wanted to climb to the top of the clouds to have a look, and this idea had been brewing in his heart for many days.
Yunshan is not far from the city, and there are large areas of cultivated land at the foot of the mountain, which are often cultivated at the foot of the mountain. There are also many people who go up the mountain to collect medicine, but few people go to the peak of Yunshan Mountain. Because Yunshan is halfway up the mountainside, the terrain suddenly becomes steep and steep, and the woods are dense. In particular, the main peak is towering into the clouds, and it is often hidden in the clouds and fog that it is difficult to see its full picture.
When you look at it from a distance, the clouds cover the mist, which makes people feel fairy. Adults have been warning children to play at the foot of Yunshan, but they must not climb the peaks of Yunshan, because legend has it that there are monsters and gods on it, and they can't go home if they meet it. In fact, it is all adults to scare children, because Yunshan is very close to the city, and the terrain above the mountain is steep, the forest is deep and the grass is dense, and children are easy to get lost and dangerous when they go up alone.
Lan Chengyu was thirteen years old that year, which was the age when curiosity and rebellion were very heavy, and that summer he was thinking about exploring the top of Cloud Mountain.
That morning, he finally went up to Yunshan alone, into the woods halfway up the mountainside, the mountain road began to walk a little hard, but the rocky scenery along the way attracted and satisfied his curiosity.
Gradually, he climbed higher, even if it was summer in the mountains and forests, he felt cool and comfortable, which made him feel even more happy, and he felt that the trip was worth the trip and he was looking forward to reaching the top, and next time he could brag in front of his classmates and friends, or make an appointment with a few partners to come again.
By the time we got to the top of the mountain, there was no road, and I couldn't even see the path that the herb pickers had taken. Lan Chengyu did not climb the main peak, and reluctantly climbed to the top of a small peak with both hands and feet, and when there was still some distance from the peak, it was difficult to climb up with his strength.
During the break, Lan Chengyu looked at the sky and the town, and a sense of pride and arrogance suddenly rose in his heart. After admiring the perfect view, Lan Chengyu looked at the road he had just climbed up and was a little worried, just now with a curiosity and enthusiasm in his heart to climb here, it is a little difficult to go down at this time.
It is difficult to gain a foothold on the strange rocks on the road, and when you come up, you can barely borrow your hands and feet, and it is not so easy to go down the mountain at this time.
Lan Chengyu was worried on the top of the mountain, it was impossible to expect someone to help him go down the mountain, and if he didn't go down the mountain, he would only spend the night in this mountain, so Lan Chengyu didn't dare to imagine it, and he began to regret and be scared in his heart. After some thought, I still mustered up the courage to go down the mountain, and at this moment the sun was already westerly, and the mountain wind seemed much cooler, and my stomach was hungry.
He thought while climbing down, he had always heard that there were children who naughtily climbed up the big tree and couldn't get down, if he couldn't go down this time, he would be used by other adults to educate the children, saying, you see that naughty Lan Chengyu can't climb up the cloud mountain by himself......
Thinking about it again, if it was known by his parents, he would definitely be beaten and scolded. With the courage to hold on, Lan Chengyu climbed down the mountain with difficulty, and slipped a few times on the way, but there was finally no danger, his clothes and pants were cut through a few holes, and his arms were also wiped out a few blood marks.
When he was about to descend this small mountain, Lan Chengyu looked up at the position he had just stood again, and a feeling of excitement rose in his heart, and he finally came down! The road down the mountain was much easier to walk again, and he was immediately relieved, but it was difficult to explain the torn clothes when he went home.
When he came to the intersection at the foot of the peak, he suddenly saw several colorful lights shooting from the mountains and forests in front of him, which seemed to be real and illusory, and it was gorgeous and colorful that he had never seen before, but it was difficult to see the whole picture hidden in the woods.
Lan Chengyu stopped and looked carefully in that direction, and then up in front of him was the main peak of Yunshan, there was no way to climb at all, it was more difficult and more difficult to climb than the small peak that Lan Chengyu had just come down, but that ray of light still attracted him to want to take a look.
Bypassing a few trees, Lan Chengyu tried to climb a section with his hands and feet. After a while, the rocks in front of you were no longer covered by grass and trees, and the field of vision became wide.
As far as the eye can see, the source of the colorful light is on a cantilevered boulder not far ahead, where stands a large bird with dazzling lights, with golden wings and powerful wings, a red crown on its head shining with a dazzling halo, and long tail feathers hanging down along the boulder, and the dazzling feathers all over the body are difficult to look at.
Lan Chengyu was really fascinated at this time, the spectacle in front of him made him feel like he was in a dream, and he climbed forward with nervousness and excitement, even he didn't know how far he had climbed, and when he turned back, he found that he was already in danger. The scenery in front of you is excellent, and it seems that it is already the top of the cloud mountain. At this time, he was clinging to the rocks, and his body was already difficult to move.
In front of him is a divine bird that is close at hand, and it is already within reach. Looking at its incomparably beautiful auspicious feathers, I really want to reach out and stroke it.
The big bird's eyes revealed a sense of wisdom and aura, and it was also looking at the young Lan Chengyu in surprise at this time, it was surprised how could a human child appear in front of him.
This big bird is the legendary phoenix divine bird, but why it appeared on the top of Yunshan will only be known when Lan Chengyu sees it again in the future.
At this time, the Phoenix Divine Bird was looking at Lan Chengyu with contempt, with a domineering arrogance and nobility in his eyes. And Lan Chengyu didn't care about its eyes at all at this time, he was already fascinated by its demeanor.
A gust of wind blew from the peak, and several phoenix tail feathers were blown in front of Lan Chengyu, and he reached out to stroke it with great joy in his heart. Unexpectedly, this phoenix divine bird suddenly turned around and hung outside the cliff with its long tail, and it was facing Lan Chengyu head-on, with a bit of surprise in its contemptuous eyes.
"This human child can actually see the deity!" said the Divine Bird Phoenix in his heart.
Lan Chengyu's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and raised his eyes to see a pair of golden giant claws appear in front of him, this pair of giant claws was bigger than his body, the red gold color was as dazzling as a flame, Lan Chengyu could feel its power, and the power contained in this powerful giant claw could easily destroy him.
The Phoenix Divine Bird's eyes were full of complicated emotions, and it looked at Lan Chengyu angrily, how could anyone who wanted to touch his noble feathers could touch it.
Lan Chengyu felt its anger, and he was indeed a little scared in his heart, only to realize that he was just like a chicken facing an eagle to it. It was unhappy that it might be destroyed at any time, and the young Lan Chengyu had a trace of fear in his heart at this time.
He withdrew his hand and looked at it in awe. I saw a black light flash in the sky behind it, yes!
It was supposed to be a black glow from something black. Lan Chengyu was stunned for two seconds, and the thing was already almost in front of him, obviously with a fast speed, but there was no sound.
A murderous aura instantly permeated Zai Lan Chengyu's heart, and he did not hesitate to jump and pounce on the Phoenix Divine Bird. This is the cantilevered boulder cliff, Lan Chengyu pounced very suddenly, and one person and one phoenix fell towards the cliff.
Of course, the Phoenix Divine Bird was not afraid of being in the air, but it flew into the sky with its wings, and it was angry at Lan Chengyu's reckless behavior. A long roar resounded through the sky, and with this soul-stirring phoenix roar, Lan Chengyu had already fallen off the cliff.
At the same time, there was a loud noise, and the boulder where the Phoenix Divine Bird was standing just now had been half shot by the black arrow. Rubble splattered, leaving an inky black mark on half of the boulder.
It immediately understood that the human child had fallen off a cliff in order to save it, and that it was no joke to be shot by the black dazzling arrow. Immediately, without the slightest hesitation, he flew towards the falling Lan Chengyu, and the gorgeous phoenix feathers turned into red flying shadows.
And Lan Chengyu, who fell, was already so frightened that he lost three souls and seven spirits, and the reason why Yunshan was called Yunshan was because of its towering main peak. The wind blowing on his body felt as sharp as a knife, making it difficult for him to breathe, coupled with the fear that Lan Chengyu fell into a semi-comatose state, he felt that he was about to die, and he was afraid that he would be crushed if he fell down this time.
There was another phoenix chirping sound in his ears that stirred his heart, and a red light shook in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, he was lying in the colorful feathers, and couldn't help but reach out and stroke it, the feathers that flashed with Ruiguang were soft and smooth, and in a trance he fainted on this soft and comfortable feather.
Before Lan Chengyu was half-asleep and half-awake, he felt that a warm current poured into his mouth, which instantly spread to his whole body.
When he woke up again, it was already the next morning, and when he first woke up, there seemed to be a fishy sweet taste in his mouth, but this sleep was indeed a long and comfortable sleep.
Later, I heard from my parents that Lan Chengyu fell asleep at the foot of Yunshan that day, and was carried back by the person who came back from collecting medicine on the mountain. But he couldn't wake up, looking at his tattered clothes and thinking that he was injured, his anxious parents hurriedly carried him to the hospital, the doctor said that he was just too tired to sleep, and after returning home, he slept until the next morning.
After Lan Chengyu woke up, he couldn't tell whether he had a dream or if he had really experienced all this. After that, he tried to climb to the top of Cloud Mountain many times, but he was unsuccessful, and the main peak of Cloud Mountain was almost difficult for people to gain a foothold, and gradually he believed that it was a dream.
Tonight, Lan Chengyu recalled the dream ten years ago, and secretly thought in his heart that he would go to the top of Cloud Mountain tomorrow to have a look.
The day after returning home, Lan Chengyu got up early, but his parents got up earlier and had already made breakfast. After Lan Chengyu finished eating, he told his parents that he was going to play with his classmates and might not come back until the evening, so he went out.
Lan Chengyu walked towards Yunshan, this was a road he was familiar with, and he didn't know how many times he had walked over the years. However, unlike in the past, now his physical fitness is not what it used to be, as soon as he leaves the city, he walks like a fly, and in less than an hour, he has come to the bottom of the main peak of Yunshan.
This is the place where I saw Ruiguang in my dream, and how many times I wanted to find the footprints in my dream to climb up, but I had no way out and could only give up halfway. However, today Lan Chengyu climbed up again, although it was a little difficult to climb, but it was not too difficult to rely on his extraordinary physical strength.
Finally, ten years later, I came to the cliff in the dream again, and it was really exactly the same as in the dream, could it be that my soul had been here.
Looking around, I saw a half-cantilevered boulder on the edge of the cliff, and the section was pierced by an inky black scratch, and there were still dots of flash on the trace under a closer look.
"Could it be that this boulder was really cut open by that black thing? So I'm not dreaming, but I've really seen a divine bird here!" Lan Chengyu secretly exclaimed in his heart.
It's hard to explain, how did you climb here back then, even if you are barely able to get here now, is there really a divine bird phoenix in the world!
Lan Chengyu looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, took a deep breath, and felt an indescribable sense of comfort, the atmosphere here made him feel that the true qi in his body had a surging feeling.
Immediately sit on the ground and run the breathing exercises in the body, if this cultivation is very different from the past, the flow of true qi in the body is very smooth, you can sense the spiritual energy around the body, and constantly rush to your body, is this the legendary place of spiritual energy!
