Text: Chapter 3 2 The Origin of Mushrooms!
As soon as the mushroom's words fell, the light from the ground of the sacred tree formed a light curtain in front of the two armies as if in response, and the light and shadow on it changed, and a light and shadow of the past appeared.
In the light curtain was an ordinary forest, and judging from the towering canopy, it was not far from the trunk of the sacred tree. A small mushroom breaks through the moist soil and grows in the shade of the tree enjoying the fresh air of the land of trees.
But the good times didn't last long, and two wrestling beasts passed by, and inadvertently dug the little mushroom out of the soil and threw it aside. The little mushroom, which had lost its soil, landed on a rhizome that emerged from the ground, and the little mushroom had no ability to move its body, so it had to wait for death.
However, the rhizome under him seemed to know that the little mushroom was about to die, and emitted a faint golden light to straighten the mushroom, giving it the power to regenerate.
In this way, with the help of the rhizome, the little mushroom took root on this rhizome and survived by absorbing the power of this magical rhizome.
Decades have passed, and the little mushroom has gained many magical abilities by relying on the power of rhizomes, and has even possessed spirituality. It can be taken away by humans as a spiritual pet and have a better future.
The time finally came, and one day the naughtiest child in the village found Little Mushroom, and the whimsical child really wanted to make Little Mushroom his spiritual pet. The ceremony was completed quickly, and I have to say that although this child is playful, he is really talented, and he can accept the spirit pet at the age of less than ten years.
The child's cultivation is still low, and he can't bring the mushrooms with him. However, he promised the little mushroom that it wouldn't be long before he could take it with him, and the child would come to accompany the little mushroom to practice every day, and he would really do it.
But. On a rainy night. There were some people near the rhizome where the little mushroom was dwelling, and judging by the clothes they were wearing, they were priests of the temple of the sacred tree. They forcibly dug up the small mushroom from the rhizome and were about to destroy it on the spot.
How could a child hiding in the shadows let people harm his spiritual pet, and used a trick to trick the priest into giving him a little mushroom for dinner, so he escaped with the mushroom. But this switch did not end, and the Holy Tree Temple actually issued a wanted warrant to hunt down the child and his mushroom spirit pet throughout the Tree Country.
From then on, the child and his mushroom lived a life of fugitive. hovering on the edge of life and death all day long, and experienced a battle to the death. While surviving, the strength of the child and the mushroom has improved by leaps and bounds, I don't know if it is because of the child's talent or the magic of the mushroom, the child has reached the king realm at the age of eighteen, such an achievement even Xie Tong sighed to himself.
To the east of the Sacred Tree, where the power of the Sacred Tree was weak, the child proclaimed himself the Mushroom King and stood on his feet. Two years later, when the child was promoted to the Emperor Realm, the Will of the Holy Tree finally elected him as the new Holy King, this is the life of the Mushroom King and his spiritual pet, and the rhizome that saved the little mushroom back then is the Holy Tree itself.
"Why did the Holy Tree Hall hunt down the Mushroom King at that time?" Xie Tong couldn't help but ask, this story was the only one that he couldn't understand. The little mushroom has no malice, and the mushroom king was also a good boy when he was a child.
"The wanted notice was issued by the Holy Maiden at the time, and the record was conveyed through the will of the Holy Tree, and this mushroom king should know about it. Rose recalled.
"Strange, why should the holy tree have trouble with a little mushroom, or do you have to kill it all?" Xie Tong was even more puzzled.
"I'll tell you myself!" said the Mushroom King, looking around, "They say that the little mushroom has stolen the power of the sacred tree and maliciously shortened the life of the sacred tree!
The people of the Holy Tree Hall bowed their heads and were silent, what happened back then was really a bit unfair.
"But the manifestation of the sacred tree today in the past has not cleared you!" said Rose.
"Then why did it make such a will in the first place? It would be wrong! This is the proof!" said the mushroom atmosphere, pointing to the light curtain.
There was silence... Only the sacred tree was still stretching, and the rhizomes in the distance made a small crumbling sound in the ground.
After a long time, the mushroom king picked up the crown he had fallen and pinched it to pieces. Turning his back to his back, he said, "The rhizomes of the holy tree are already all over me... Spread across the Eastern Territories, the Temple of the Holy Tree can establish branches in the East, and the people there will also be eligible to enjoy the blessings of the Holy Tree, and... Elect another holy king. β
"Holy King, please stay...", but an old woman walked out of the Forest Saint King's array, walked slowly to the Mushroom King, and fell directly to the ground.
"Fuck off, I hate the Sacred Tree Hall guys!" said the Mushroom King disdainfully.
"Actually, the Sacred Tree didn't give the will to kill the mushroom back then, everything was instructed by me to pretend to be the will of the Sacred Tree. The old woman knelt on the ground and said coldly, "I didn't lie, and I didn't regret it! If you want to blame that little mushroom for absorbing the power of the sacred tree, it will definitely affect its lifespan!"
"What are you, you dare to take responsibility for your crimes. Do you think I'll believe you just by your mouth!" The Mushroom King retorted.
"She is the saint of the year, Lily. There will be no lie about the sacred tree. The Forest Saint King also stepped forward and said.
The Lily Saintess bowed her head and said regretfully, "I don't regret killing that little mushroom, but I didn't expect that a small mushroom, which was insignificant at that time, would stir up such a bloody storm in my tree country today, and kill so many people." Holy King, it's all my fault..."Before the words could be finished, the Mushroom King grabbed her neck.
"Damn it! it turned out to be you!" Mushroom's hand was so hard that he wanted to strangle her to death on the spot.
The Forest Saint King stepped forward to stop her, "She will have the Holy Tree Temple to punish her, mushrooms... Now that it's clear, it's time for you to let go. β
Mushroom gasped, his hand trembling as he grabbed Lily, and he threw Lily aside in a moment of thought, "Get out!"
After a while, the mushroom calmed down, held his spirit pet little mushroom in the palm of his hand and whispered, "Do you still hate?"
After a long time, the Mushroom King turned around and bowed in the direction of the sacred tree. When he stood up, his arms suddenly burst open, and the blood scattered all over the ground, this was his real body.
"I was really wrong this time, I killed so many people, damn it!" With that, the mushroom king's stomach burst open, and a bush of mushrooms emerged from it.
"Great kingβ" The people wept and begged him not to kill himself.
Rose's eyes were also moist, infected by this scene.
The Mushroom King spat blood from his mouth and said to his people in a long voice, "I have provoked wars and killed countless people, almost all of them are compatriots of the Spirit Clan, and I must not stop there, I must apologize with death so that the people of other territories can eliminate their grievances and no longer be angry with you." β
After that, the little golden mushroom appeared on the top of the mushroom's head and didn't enter, and a faint golden light came out of the mushroom's eyes, which was the main pet to explode together.
At this moment, the soil in front of the mushroom king began to loosen. The rhizome of the sacred tree suddenly burst out of the ground, wrapping around the Mushroom King, healing his injuries and restoring his body, even the eye that had been lost by the Ice Goddess to its original state.
When the mushroom king landed safely, he was stunned by the rhizome of the holy tree in front of him, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Holy Tree God, I deserve to die for my sin, and I shouldn't have saved me." β
At this time, the divine language sounded, this was the first time Xie Tong had heard this ancient language in the normal world, and he was busy asking Xiaoguang to translate.
Rose took the lead and said loudly in public the will of the sacred tree, "The mushroom king made unprovoked killing, and the crime deserves death, and he has been operating the east for several years to benefit the people, so the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped." He was ordered to be stationed in the eastern part of the Tree Country for the rest of his life, and he was not allowed to take a step out of the Tree Country for the rest of his life! If he killed one more Spirit Clan, he would be personally punished when the Holy Clan was established!"
Cheers erupted, and the people of the mushrooms cheered and threw him high around the mushroom king. As if it were not a punishment but a reward.
Rose then translated the will of the Holy Tree: "The Holy Tree Temple will immediately open a branch in the east, and in the future, each Holy Maiden will be sent to the eastern branch to serve the people. β
The cheers were even louder.
Only Xie Tong's mood was suddenly depressed, and the holy woman was going to be sent to the eastern hall to serve the people... So if you want to marry a rose in the future, isn't it...
Just then, Rose finished conveying the will of the sacred tree and looked here. The two looked at each other, and they both saw each other's thoughts, and a little melancholy suddenly haunted their hearts.
"Report! The Lily Priest has killed himself. The voice of the Spirit Warrior interrupted the two of them's thoughts. When everyone looked, they saw the old woman Lily lying in a pool of blood with her spirit pet, and committed suicide in guilt.
The Mushroom King himself buried Lily and sincerely asked Rose to pray for her blessing. Then he pleaded guilty to King Mu Tong and Xie Tong and begged them to forgive themselves. Moreover, he also gave Xie Tong a cooperation plan given to him by the Sword Worship Empire.
"Little brother, hatred always makes people lost, I know that the past is wrong, I hope I can have the opportunity to help you in the future to express my apologies..."The Mushroom King said, and once again cast an apologetic look at the Mutong Holy King, "Green Clothes, I'm sorry." Sometimes, in the face of ambition, the lost will give up something, if you want to kill me, come at any time..."
Mu Tong Holy King didn't say much, but let Xiao Taozi spit out half of the mushroom's body, and then said, "I hope you abide by the decree of the Holy Tree, otherwise I will kill you." β
The war in the Land of Trees has finally been completely settled. The Mushroom King was stripped of his military power, and the army in his territory belonged to the Mutong Holy King. Since then, the hidden danger in the eastern part of the Dragon Fighting Empire has been eliminated, and it is time for Xie Tong to go back.
"When the war is over, I will come back to propose marriage to the Holy King of the Forest and marry you. Xie Tong clenched Rose's hands and was reluctant.
"I'm going to the Eastern Section, and if you marry me, you're going to settle there, and you're willing?" asked Rose, blushing.
Xie Tong touched the back of his head and said, "I am also a holy son." If you're tired, I'll take the shift for you. β
Gently pecking at Xie Tong's face, Rose rode on top of the white wolf and returned to the send-off procession.
"Hey, I don't know if a few of them can live a life in the country of trees..."Xie Tong thought of several celebrities in Long Dou, what should he say when he went back.
"Boss, thank you. Wufang followed Xie Tong and kept thanking him along the way. There is no other reason, that is, Xie Tong asked his personal guard Wanluo to come over.
"Thank me, why don't you go and pour tea!"
