..............................

Along the way, through the rainy season, over the high mountains and plains.

Sit and meditate in the forest on a moonlit night, drink and laugh by the stream cliffs, fly freely in the morning breeze, and overlook the enchanting surroundings in the bright skylight. Enjoying the different scenery and style, experiencing the vicissitudes of life from ancient times to the present, appreciating the different changes of the four seasons, and feeling the splendor of the moment of alternating between day and night!

Thousands of wilderness places, leaving the footprints of the three brothers.

On this day, three old men appeared on the mountain road. Their appearances and expressions are different, but their actions are very similar. The person at the head walked elegantly, but he held a wine gourd, taking a sip from time to time, very leisurely. The two in the back are each holding a palm-sized white jade wine jar, which is even more comfortable.

Don't think about it, this is Lin Yi, Lao Long and Tiger Head.

Ahead is a hillside, with shacks made of animal skins, houses half-hidden in the ground made of earth and stones, and household objects such as fences and wells. This is where a village is located. However, the vegetation around it withered, the pond dried up, and even the well platform fell with a thick layer of dust. The whole village looked dilapidated and barren, and there was not a single figure in front of or behind.

"Oh, it's a poor village......"

"The three of my brothers have been traveling for more than a month in succession, and after passing here, they will go hundreds of thousands of miles to reach the seaside and close to the boundary of Wanshan......"

"Well, it's rare to see all the things you see through a thousand wildernesses like this......"

"What the boss said is very true, it is a mortal trip, and it is not without gains......"

"Brother Tiger, I think so! I don't know the ups and downs, I don't know the joys and sorrows, thank you for the company of the two brothers! Gaga! It's just that there is no meat to eat here......

"There is a great drought here, the mountains and wilderness are exhausted, it is not easy for mortals to live, you still want to eat meat, hum ......"

The three brothers talked as they walked, and gradually came to the entrance of the village. Ahead is a river valley tens of miles in circumference, the valley is cracked and desolate. On a col in the valley, under the half-dead old trees, there was a group of mountain people, all kneeling on the ground and raising their hands to the sky, very pious.

The tiger head raised the jade bottle and poured a sip of century-old wine, breathed out the wine comfortably, and said curiously: "Those mortals are ignorant...... Funny, I don't know what to do, haha......" He grinned and laughed unscrupulously, still the same as before. However, in the past month or so, he has never confronted Boss Lin Yi again. On the way, he was accustomed to seeing the suffering of mortals, as well as that kind of humble attachment, and he himself gradually became a little less frivolous and more rarely calm.

The old dragon raised his eyes and guessed: "That group of mortals is clearly worshipping the gods, and the customs are very different in different places, and they have already been taught ......."

Lin Yi's understanding of the mundane is much higher than that of the two brothers, and he said: "Life and death, sacrifice, are the most important things in the mundane. Born to rejoice, to die helpless. And it is not easy to get through the decades safely and smoothly. In addition to hardships, I always do not forget to pray for the protection of the gods. This is especially true of natural disasters such as droughts and floods. But ......" he looked at the sky, and said: "Now that the scorching sun is on the head, and the heat wave is rolling in the four fields, those mountain people are not afraid of the scorching heat, and they are actually kneeling down in front of a dead ancient tree, this custom is also strange!"

The three brothers did not want to stay long, so they went down the hill and followed the valley.

There were hundreds of mortals, old men and children. For the three old men who passed by here, no one paid any attention to them.

The brothers walked slowly past the col, leaving the valley and avoiding the view, and then they were about to step away. Hundreds of thousands of miles away is the end of a thousand desolations. Just cross the sea and you can reach the boundary of ten thousand mountains. This way up the mountain to see the scenery, very enjoyable leisurely. And what will happen next is still unknown!

A hundred zhang away is the mountain col where mortals gather.

The old dragon and the tiger's head quickened their pace, and they wanted to leave this place of lack of life early.

Lin Yi slowed down, and a hint of surprise flashed in his expression.

The ancient tree on the col was cut by lightning and fire, and only half of the two people were left. The few branches that spread out were dark and thin, and there was not a single leaf left, like the torso of a dead man, without the slightest life.

However, if you look closely, you can see that there is a little green blooming in the crack under the root of the tree. No, it was a bud of a leaf. And when everyone gathered around and knelt down, they all stared at the weak and eye-catching color......

Lin Yi couldn't help but stop, raised his eyes to look around, and then looked down at his feet.

Under the scorching sun, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a thousand miles of red flame. The grass and trees are all dead, the mountain springs are cut off, the streams are dried up, and even this river valley has opened cracks the thickness of a thumb, like a thirsty mouth for a long time, which is shocking!

Lin Yi raised his head and looked at the ancient tree again, as well as the little green of the root, and couldn't help but feel a slight movement in his heart. In an instant, a familiar scene seemed to emerge in front of his eyes. It was the Heaven of the Heavenly Realm on the fifth floor of the Nine Heavens Tower......

At that time, they had passed through the torture of ice and fire, and experienced a dark silence and a great change of landslides and earth cracks, but they had been facing desolation for a long time again, and the group was already impatient and restless. And it was a touch of green in the distance that pointed the way for everyone.

I still remember that it was the weeds among the gravel, soft and weak, humble and insignificant, but they were graceful for a moment, blooming with tenacious vitality! And it was that touch of new green that made the world different......

The two worlds are very different, but the situation is so similar.

Those mortals with yellow faces and thin muscles were already hungry and poor. And the obsession that allows them to suffer in suffering and wait in despair is only because they have an immortal vitality in their hearts. It is not so much the magic brought by kneeling down to the ancient tree, but rather the persistence and unabandonment of life.

Maybe...... Perhaps the most powerful thing in this world is not suffering and despair, nor purgatory and silence, but vitality!

Only the humility of life can have a moment of glory!

Only the tenacity of life can have the most dazzling bloom!

It is like a cry of pregnancy in October, like the light after the darkness, like the collision of heaven and earth in the harmony of yin and yang......

The old dragon and the tiger head noticed it, and both looked back.

I saw the boss Lin Yi standing alone in a daze, sometimes frowning thoughtfully, sometimes smiling at the corners of his mouth, and a mark slightly raised in the center of his eyebrows, as if there was a faint light flickering. In particular, there is a layer of indifferent and invisible momentum around him, which is mysterious and unpredictable, but it is also heart-pounding

"Boss, have you gained anything?"

"Needless to say, the boss is in good spirits and powerful, and it must be that the realm is refined. Could it be that I have realized the power of the enchantment? My brothers and I have suffered a lot for this......"

The old dragon and the tiger head are not idle people, and they have already seen the difference between Lin Yi with a glance. The brothers were concerned and turned and walked back.

However, in an instant, Lin Yi had suddenly woken up, and the mark on his eyebrows and the power around him disappeared. He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a faint smile: "The power of the enchantment is inseparable from cultivation. Even if you have a realm of understanding, it's in vain......"

He had previously deterred and subdued Fang Mingzi and Fang Yuanzi in one fell swoop, not the power of the real enchantment, but with the help of most of the power of the sword array. Those two people don't know why, and Lin Yi won't find out easily. That's why he said that.

Lin Yi saw that the two brothers were still puzzled, and said: "I have been thinking about creating another type of supernatural power, until today, it can be regarded as a little understanding......

The old dragon was relieved and smiled.

The tiger head shook his head and said: "The boss has created his own magical powers, which is amazing, when did I have this ability...... "In the past, this guy will definitely be a little unconvinced." And at this time, there was a little envy and compliment in his words!

Lin Yi didn't have any intention of being complacent, and said: "Every kind of supernatural power has to be exhausted for hundreds of years, and it is not a good ability to succeed!" He had no intention of hiding his selfishness, and said patiently: "I remember that the arrogant Lingqiu patriarch of Tianyu has given advice, and I deeply think so." The vastness of the universe contains the way of change of the five elements. Among them, there are wind and frost, cold and warm, yin and yang reincarnation, the way of heaven bears the burden, and ten thousand laws are natural. Therefore, observe the heavenly opportunity and borrow it for your own use. Again, magic magic powers originally existed between heaven and earth......"

Tiger head will put on a posture of listening to the teachings, like an open-minded and studious virtue, but he didn't expect to wait for a long speech, he hurriedly took two steps back, and took the opportunity to say: "Boss, look, what flies in the sky, and what runs on the ground......"

Flying in the sky, it was a middle-aged man, stepping on the sword light, coming slowly, not looking like he was in a hurry, but like he was deliberately showing off his sword skills. It turned out to be a monk from the late stage of Jindan!

Running on the ground was a scrawny Lin horse, and on his back was an old man covered in dust.

But after a while, the old man rode straight to the mountain col on his horse. The crowd gathered in front of the half-ancient tree cheered and stood up to greet each other. And the heavenly monks still stepped on their swords and volleyed into the air, looking at all directions and looking arrogant!

Lin Yi was gossiping with the old dragon and the tiger head, not forgetting to see the situation near and far. Suddenly, seeing the two people coming inexplicably, the brothers had already put away the gourd and jade bottle in their hands. This is the end of a thousand desolations, and everything must be cautious.

The old man jumped off his horse, still holding a bone staff in his hand. Judging by its appearance, it should be a mage, a great witch, or a patriarch. He waved his hand at the people who greeted him, glanced at the three figures in the river valley with some confusion, and then raised his bone staff and said respectfully to the monk in mid-air: "Immortal Chief, you have collected the rare herbs below, and please cast a spell to relieve my upside-down suffering......

Seeing this, the old dragon said: "That's the local wizard, invite the immortals from afar to help......

The tiger head said disdainfully: "How can a little Jindan monk alleviate this thousand-mile drought......

Lin Yi had no intention of agreeing, so he simply put his hands behind his back and raised his eyes to watch. Since you pass through here, you should see the excitement again.

The Jindan monk hung in the air for hundreds of feet, not paying attention to the mountain people here and the three old men in the river valley at all. He said arrogantly: "If you rely on your own means to do your best, this immortal will help you as appropriate......

Worked hard to invite the immortal chief, and in the end you have to do it yourself?

The old man on the col was slightly stunned, but he didn't dare to argue, so he had to sigh secretly with a tired face, slowly walked to the half of the ancient tree, raised the bone staff in his hand a little weakly, and chanted something in his mouth. The surrounding clansmen hurriedly retreated, prostrate on the ground one by one.

Lin Yi looked at the familiar scene with interest, and couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart......
