After a long journey of a month and a half, over mountains and mountains, across oceans and seas, swamps, crocodile rivers, deserts, snow, etc., and after a variety of tribulations, Amu and the old monster of Zishan finally arrived at Huaguo Mountain.

In the past month and a half and the journey, Amu has been counting everything in his mind before he arrived: killing more than 50 powerful monsters (sea monsters, snow monsters, water monsters, forest monsters, etc.), defeating two teams of robbers and bandits and a team of pirates (all kinds of powerful orcs, monsters, demons, mutants, ordinary but strong martial arts people, etc.), encountering various natural disasters (storms, hailstorms, blizzards, floods, sandstorms, etc.), and many inexplicable strange things (people from all over the world, Indigenous tribes, etc., customs, etc.). It can be said that he can go through these people who don't have to die, he can't be regarded as a human being! This is no longer difficult for two people, especially since the old monster of Zishan is just a master who opens his mouth to block his apprentices! To put it nicely, this is the exercise of Amu, and if it is ugly, this is what happens to pigs and dogs!

But it's also a bit incredible to think about it, to experience so much in such a short period of a month and a half and miraculously come back to life, which many people can't experience in a lifetime. Although the above experience was only brought over in just one or two hundred words, everything was not all going well, and Amu almost died several times, if it weren't for the fact that the old monster of the Purple Mountain secretly provided a little help or pulled him back from the brink of death when he was seriously injured. Therefore, these trials are not only of great help to Amu's own cultivation, but also have a lot of guiding significance for his life, at least he has a certain deep understanding of "cherishing life", especially when he loses his very important memories before. It may be a bit heavy to talk about these, but we are not Tao Xiaozhi or iron buckets.

All in all, these ordeals have made Amu stronger. How strong is it, maybe it's as strong as Xiaoqiang.

"Wow wow~~ This is Huaguo Mountain~~" Amu couldn't help but open his mouth wide and sighed loudly, sighing for a long time.

There is a country overseas, called Proud Country. The country is close to the sea, and there is a famous mountain in the sea, which is called Huaguo Mountain. This mountain is the ancestral vein of the ten continents, the dragon of the three islands, since the opening of the turbidity and standing, Hongmeng after the judgment. What a mountain! Fu said: Shizhen Wangyang, Weining Yaohai: Shizhen Wangyang, the tide swells Yinshan fish into the hole; Weining Yaohai, the waves turn over the snow and the waves are miraged. The corners of water and fire are high and the East China Sea is towering. Danya strange stones, cutting walls and peaks. On the cliff, the colorful phoenix sings, and before the wall is cut, the unicorn lies alone. Listen to the rooster crowing at the peak, and watch the dragon enter and exit every time the grottoes are watched. There are longevity deer fairy foxes in the forest, and there are spirit birds and cranes in the trees. Yao grass and strange flowers are not grateful, green pines and cypresses are elusive. Immortal peaches often bear fruit, and the bamboo is left in the clouds. A ravine vine is dense, and the grass of the original embankment on all sides is new. It is Baichuan will be at Optimus Prime, and the root of the earth will be immovable for thousands of catastrophes......

The above is the description of Huaguo Mountain in the original book of "Journey to the West", but here...... There is a mountain here, and there is no "towering peak", but you can hardly look up to see the big stone with two typos engraved on the top of the mountain, "Huaguo Mountain" - this mountain is actually not much bigger. Even people with a fear of heights can climb to the top of the mountain without any sense of pressure, and there is no sea around, so there is no "overwhelming ocean" trend. Of course, there is still a puddle of cement left by last night's rain at the foot of the mountain; there are no dragons, no phoenixes, and no unicorns, all the rare birds, beasts, mythical beasts, and monsters are not to be mentioned, and a few wild cats, crows, mosquitoes, and flies are already very good; there is no need to talk about strange flowers and plants, because this mountain is almost bare, with a few eye-catching big trees and some wild grasses and wild flowers, which can be regarded as worthy of nature...... Do you want to say anything else, even Amu didn't have the eyes to look at it anymore, except for disappointment or sigh......

Since this is Huaguo Mountain, will there be a Water Curtain Cave Sun Wukong and so on? For these, Amu doesn't want to look forward to it, because he doesn't want to be more disappointed. But he still wanted to know, "What are we here to cultivate?"

"I'm us," the Purple Mountain Monster corrected, "it's you." ”

"What am I here to cultivate?"

"I'm not happy—"

"You're not happy, why aren't you happy?"

"You're so stupid!" said the old monster of the Purple Mountain with his cane, knocking on Amu's head and angrily.

"Master, have I done something wrong?"

"You don't understand!"

"I won't ask you if I understand......"

Reasonable.

"Since you don't understand, why should I say it?"

"How can I understand if you don't tell me?"

Who has a point? It doesn't matter, the important thing is that this seems to be the first dispute between their master and apprentice.

Then, the old monster of the Purple Mountain became angry and began the majesty of the master: "You stand here for me, Zamabu, until tomorrow I can't do anything, but you have to catch a thousand mosquitoes for me!"

In this barren mountain and wild night, trying to catch a thousand mosquitoes is not a difficult thing for Amu, because he has not bathed for many days, and his fox smell is a sacred source for attracting bees and butterflies! But Amu still does not understand: "I can't do anything else, why can I catch mosquitoes?"

"Then you can stay here for three days and three nights and think about it!" the old monster of the Purple Mountain waved his sleeves away, and stomped on Amu's lifeline before leaving.

Grievances, loneliness, and egg pain, these are the things that Amu will have to face now and in the next three days.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Three days is actually not that long, because after the first night, Amu reached the fourth day in the blink of an eye, because when he hadn't caught a hundred mosquitoes, he bit the ninety-ninth mosquito, and then fainted, and he didn't wake up until the fourth day, and he woke up the old urine of the old monster of the Purple Mountain!

"Urine doesn't taste good, but it can save your life!" said the old monster of the Purple Mountain very seriously, it didn't seem like a joke, although his appearance had always looked funny.

Amu didn't understand, but he didn't dare to ask, because he didn't want to stay here for another three days.

The old man of Zishan said: "If you don't understand anything, you can ask it, I am not a strict old teacher in the school." ”

Amu said: "This ......"

Of course, the old monster of Purple Mountain knew what he was thinking, and then said: "These are the mosquitoes unique to Huaguo Mountain, which are extremely poisonous, and only birds are the antidote...... Now you understand why I want you to catch mosquitoes?"

Amu nodded with satisfaction, and then took out the ninety-nine mosquitoes he had killed, with mosquitoes on his hands, blood on his palms, and sadness in them.

"Eat it—not them!"

"What?" Amu was visibly surprised, as these things might be really hard to swallow.

The old man of the Purple Mountain said, "Yes, these things are of great benefit to your body and play a vital role in your cultivation. ”

Without saying a word, Amu swallowed ninety-nine mosquitoes in one go, and licked all the blood on his hands.

The old monster of Purple Mountain patted Amu's shoulder and laughed: "Good apprentice, really well-behaved-"

Then his face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and he gave Amu a kick by the way.

Amu didn't understand anything other than the pain of the egg, but he still didn't dare to ask.

The old man of Purple Mountain said, "Do you know why I hit you?"

Amu looked a little embarrassed but said it anyway: "You're not happy-"

"Then do you know why I'm upset?"

Amu shook his head.

The old monster of the Purple Mountain sighed and said, "Then I'll tell you the truth: I didn't come here mainly to accompany you to cultivate?"

"Then you ......"

"I'm here for a date!"

Dating?Who are you dating?How many dates are you dating?How far has this story got?Silly, Amu would never ask these questions, he still cherishes his life. Besides, even if he asked, the old monster of Purple Mountain would never answer.

The old monster of Purple Mountain smiled: "Don't be like this, I am also a human being, and I also have my own private life!"

It's not easy to be a celebrity, even if the old monster of Zishan has a scandal, others may not be willing to do it (who wants to have anything to do with this crazy old man).

Amu also smiled.

The old monster of the Purple Mountain smiled: "Seeing that you are so happy, let me tell you some other things: these mosquitoes are not very toxic, at most they will wake up after three days of stinging...... Urine is not an antidote, and those mosquitoes are not good for your body, at most they will make you diarrhea...... Are you angry now?"

No one would be very angry, and besides, he loved and respected his apprentice so much!

But Amu still tried to stay calm: "Are you kidding me?"

The old man of the Purple Mountain said: "I just want to tell you a truth, but this truth is a big problem that you have now, and this problem may have a very bad impact on your cultivation this time: you don't believe in yourself, you don't question your authority, and you don't have your own opinions!"

Of course, these three points have a great impact on cultivation, but in fact, they are the same for many things.

Then he continued: "I don't want to say more, think about it yourself when you have time." ”

Amu seemed to feel a little uncomfortable, maybe it was because of what Master had just said, or maybe he started to have a stomach trouble after eating these wild mosquitoes.

The old monster of the Purple Mountain said, "Let's go cultivate now!"

Amu still didn't speak, and his face became even more gloomy.

The old man of Zishan said: "I really didn't fool you this time, don't question it so quickly." ”

Amu just said, "No—"

The old monster of the Purple Mountain said angrily: "I just taught you that you don't want to cultivate!"

Amu said: "I think I'm really going to pull a bubble of first...... But before I go, I still want to ask: Where are we going to cultivate?"

The old monster of the Purple Mountain said: "Water Curtain Cave." ”

Of course, Amu wants to say these two words, but he has to "believe in himself", especially "trust his ears".

"Well, I'm not going to anymore. ”
