Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Ancient Peach Tree
Wu Ziling quickened his pace, he knew that he would definitely stay on the mountain tonight, so he wanted to rush to the top of the mountain as soon as possible, so as to find a vacant place and light a fire to keep warm.
All that was left of the whole world was the sound of the wind whistling in the mountains, and the sound of ticking water, and a new moon gradually appeared in the sky, bending like a hook, and the stars were dotted around.
The beautiful night, the bleak mountains, the lonely figures.
Heaven and earth are staggered, the four seasons turn, Wu Ziling stepped out of the end of the gravel, stepping into the dark ancient forest, he felt a strange fluctuation, and everything around him was changing with it.
The surrounding thousand-year-old forest is disappearing, and the babbling stream is condensing.
A pool of fairy mist surging in the forest appeared more than ten zhang away in front of him!
Wu Ziling was soberly aware of these, and couldn't help but sigh: "This "ancient clan" is showing extraordinary everywhere, from the "Xianwutai" that is so old that it cannot be described, to the mysterious third floor of Taixuan Pavilion, and now there are rare and exotic beasts guarding the strange mountain. And these are just a corner of what I have seen in the Xuanqing Sect. ”
And here is like the existence of the third layer of Taixuan Pavilion, with a magical formation, which can cover the appearance of all things and the breath of all things.
If you don't enter this place, you'll never know what's inside!
There is an ancient tree growing in the spring, and there is a shadow of a tree in the mist, and the shadow is sufficient. It is about seven or eight zhang high, the branches are dense, vigorous like a dragon, stretching to the sky, lush.
Strange flowers are in full bloom by the pool, and sesame grass is everywhere.
The birds and flowers are fragrant all around, and the fairy mist hangs in the cage, just like the treasure of the fairy family.
Around the mountain spring, ribbons composed of colorful glows swirl and fly in the air, and a thin curtain of light appears and disappears around the poolside.
Wu Ziling moved three zhang horizontally, and continued to observe from a different angle, not daring to rush forward.
When the clouds and mist drifted by, Wu Ziling vaguely found that there were a few fruits on the branches of the ancient tree, which were fragrant and fragrant, and the whole body was flame red, and in the moonlight, there was a little red glow, and the crystal was shining.
This is a peach! But it's too big, far beyond Wu Ziling's imagination.
"Could it be the legendary peach?" exclaimed Wu Ziling incredulously, the largest peach he had ever seen on earth was not as good as Eryi!
"The Xuanqing Sect planted it on this mountain and set up a formation to protect it, so it must be regarded as a treasure!" After a brief analysis, he came to some conclusions.
Yao grass is all over the ground, and when Wu Ziling walked, he inadvertently noticed that this mountain spring occasionally overflowed, flowing into the cracks of the stone rocks, mixing into the clear stream, and flowing down the mountain.
The Shaoling Pond at the foot of the mountain turned out to be just a little spiritual liquid accumulated over time in the spiritual spring on the top of the mountain!
The breeze blew, a fallen leaf floated up, and the moment it landed on the five-colored light curtain, it immediately turned into nothingness.
It has not been shaken back, nor has it been reduced to ashes. Instead, it turned into a streamer and instantly evaporated out of thin air, leaving no trace between heaven and earth.
Wu Ziling's eyes froze, on the top of Dayue Mountain, there is a formation to guard, and there is no wind and waves, and some are only occasionally gentle breeze.
This scene obviously easily entered his field of vision. Seeing this silent picture, his little heart couldn't help twitching, cold sweat flowed, and he was frightened. completely shattered the only remaining hope in his heart.
After that, Wu Ziling just kept moving sideways to the right around the mountain spring, but he didn't dare to move forward a bit, let alone stay here.
If you are like a crouching tiger and a wolf, how can you sleep peacefully?
Half an hour later, Wu Ziling stopped and finally came to the other side of the mountain spring. The peach tree in the light curtain was still submerged by the steaming clouds in the pool, ethereal and sacred, and the real body was not visible.
Under the moonlight, Wu Ziling stopped, the scene ahead was a little weird, and he had to stop for a while.
A quaint stone statue was erected here, it was a woman, with a snake head and a human body, a graceful body, and flying ribbons. Under the kind gaze, as if everything in heaven and earth was her child, Wu Ziling couldn't help but look solemn.
This is the second time Wu Ziling has seen this stunning woman in the world, and there is also a portrait of the same person on the head of the Dao seal of Taixuan Town.
In fact, Wu Ziling has doubted more than once whether this is the mythical and legendary Nuwa Niangniang in ancient China, who has been praised by the Emperor Wa for eternity!
Although he was in contact with the sect master's high-level every day, he couldn't ask about it, it was too strange.
He came from a place outside this world, and on that distant earth, there are also legends of Fuxi and Wahuang!
These unheard-of absurd news are also shocking news for the characters in this world, especially those who stand at the top.
He will not reveal his origins, and if the news leaks slightly, it will bring the days of the guinea pig.
Below the stone statue is an offering altar with three incense sticks on the altar and clouds of smoke. Under the stage is a futon, the futon is very exquisite, embroidered with gold silk dazzling.
Wu Ziling came to the altar in a few steps, carefully looked at the altar, and then something attracted Wu Ziling's attention. He stared at the altar with burning eyes, and behind the incense burner, a fist-sized five-colored stone floated in the air.
The pure and immaculate five-color fairy light is blooming, not so much this is a stone, it is more appropriate to compare it to a five-color crystal, the five-color light is dazzling, Wu Ziling vaguely saw that there is a chaotic world inside, and there is a groundbreaking scene.
"This five-colored stone, can't it really be the five-color mending stone used by Nuwa Niangniang when she used to mend the sky?" Wu Ziling felt that this was too fantastical, he seemed to step into the long river of time, followed the back of time, and returned to the era of the legend of the gods, so that he could see these unbelievable, but extremely real ancient things.
Wu Ziling stood on tiptoe, stretched out his right hand, and tried to reach forward, he wanted to feel the five-colored fairy stone in person, to witness a thing that was called a legend in his own world.
"Boy, stop!" a deafening snap rang out.
Wu Ziling was so frightened that he trembled, his body shook, his center of gravity was unstable, his body fell on the altar, and his right hand had already touched the five-colored fairy stone.
Several rays of light rushed out of the five-colored fairy stones, and the small hands were like colorful glass under the intense beams of light. The five-colored light was clear, and the formation could not be stopped, and it shot straight into the sky after penetrating it. The sky suddenly appeared with five-colored brilliance, like a rainbow after rain, reflecting the whole world.
"Impossible, boy, how did you do it! You are definitely not from my Wu family!"
An old man quietly appeared behind Wu Ziling, his face was strange, his hands were a little trembling, and he couldn't tell whether he was angry or surprised.
Wu Ziling turned around and said curtly: "I just think this stone is beautiful, so I want to pick it up and look at it carefully, and I have no evil intentions." ”
As he spoke, he wanted to withdraw his right hand and return the five-colored fairy stone to its original position.
