041, the mountain god concealed things (I)
Ruoshan and Ruoshui stretched out their hands to help each other, the legend says that eating one can grow into an immortal, the tiger baby has already eaten several, and when he asked him, he answered so easily with a smile, it felt like eating a swan egg from Huahai Village. The tiger baby has not become an immortal, but this child has already achieved the perfection of the three realms and nine transformations at a young age, and it seems that the Lang Yu fruit can indeed greatly help in cultivation. And the cultivation of the upper realms of the path to heaven is truly the path of immortality, and the name of "immortal elixir" is not completely false.
Ruoshui looked around again and said, "These twelve, are they dragon blood treasure trees?"
Ruoshan: "It's the Dragon Blood Treasure Tree, and it is also found on Bayuan, but it is rare for ordinary people to see it." I once saw this tree from afar in a mountain, it was guarded by the king's heavy troops, and ordinary people were not allowed to approach it, and the few trees that grew on the hillside were like this. But such a tall dragon blood treasure tree is far beyond what I had ever seen back then. ”
Granny Shui bent down again to pluck water with her hands in the lotus pond next to her, and exclaimed: "The aura of this water is pure, I have never seen it, it is a spring of eternal clarity." ...... What kind of flowers are growing in this water?"
Shanye: "Looking at the shape of flowers and leaves, it should be a lotus flower, and there are lotus roots in the underwater mud." ...... But ordinary lotus flowers can't grow in such a place at all, and I have never seen a flower with five colors. ”
Ruoshui had never left this wilderness, so she had never seen a lotus, and although Ruoshan had seen a lotus, she had never seen a five-colored divine lotus, and she had never even heard of it.
The five-colored divine lotus is an immortal elixir possessed by Emperor Taihao, although the Shennong Heavenly Emperor of later generations has also obtained and studied and taken it, but he has not cultivated it by himself, so he can't really have it. Therefore, the five-colored divine lotus can be said to be a token of the Taihao Heavenly Emperor, but Taihao's era is too long ago, as early as a thousand years ago, so that many people have not heard of this immortal elixir now.
At this time, the tiger baby said again: "Don't you stand here and talk, aren't you here to see the mountain god, come with me." ”
He led the sleepwalking mountain lord and the water lady along the white stone path through the lotus pond. I walked to the white jade altar in the center of the ruins. Five Langyu trees that exude a bright light surround the altar, the flawless white jade flows with a crystal luster, and there are still a lot of things on the altar, which looks a little messy.
There were fifteen petals, apparently from the lotus, and some five-colored stamens in one petal, and beside them were four emerald green stems, which were the long rods left over from the shedding of the lotus flower, which were also folded and placed there. There are also four lotus pods, the seeds of which have been stripped off.
Granny Shui suddenly said: "Ruoshan, the mountain god gave you and me the elixir back then. It's got out of this!"
Ruoshan nodded and said, "Yes, it is a lotus seed, which grows in the lotus canopy, and the lotus canopy is formed from the heart of the flower." I thought that the mountain god was picked from somewhere else, but today I know that it came from here. The effect of that elixir at that time was really amazing!"
After Ruoshan and Ruoshui broke through the four realms that year, the mountain gods also taught them the essence of the essence, and in order to help them cultivate the essence of the essence, they each gave a lotus seed of the five-color divine lotus. But he didn't tell them what it was, and he didn't let the two of them reveal it to outsiders. At this moment, in this mysterious ruin, they remembered the past again and recognized the origin of the elixir.
Huwa said: "It turns out that the mountain master and the water mother-in-law have also eaten." Is it eaten with the bud heart and the green skin? It's very bitter, I don't want to eat it all the time, every time I hold it and watch it swallow it!"
Ruoshui lost his voice and said, "What! You also ate it, just eat it directly?"
Huwa pointed to the lotus canopies on the altar and said, "Yes." Didn't you see that the fruit in this was all gone, and it was all eaten by me and Pan Gu. "Huwa was very careful every time she took out the lotus seeds, and she didn't tear the lotus pod. The canopy is still intact, but it is empty.
Ruoshui asked, "How did you eat?"
Tiger Baby: "That's how I chew and eat, the meat is very crispy and fragrant, but the core buds are too bitter, and the taste of the green skin is even more astringent." ...... After each meal, the mountain god asked me to practice gong. ...... Eat once, and you don't have to eat for many days. ”
Shan Ye and Granny Shui glanced at each other, and they couldn't say anything. Back then, they did each get a lotus seed, but according to the instructions of the mountain god, they refined it into a precious medicinal liquid, and they took it with great care, and they did not take it all at once, and every time they cooperated with the method of refining and absorbing spiritual effects. The child and the dog are fine, but they chew and swallow them, and they are very reluctant to eat!
Although they still didn't know that this was the immortal elixir five-colored divine lotus, the two of them had taken lotus seeds back then, and they knew that their spiritual effects were extremely extraordinary. And the tiger baby and Pan Gu have eaten so much, the mountain god is really willing!
In fact, Li Qingshui was not ungenerous back then, but he would not squander the immortal elixir left by Emperor Taihao no matter what. If they could break through to the Six Realms, Li Qingshui had planned to give them another Lang Yu Fruit to help them achieve great cultivation, but they never waited.
Today's Li Qingshui, the situation and ideas are completely different from those back then, and it doesn't matter whether he is reluctant or not. And to be honest, this kid and the dog are quite sensible, otherwise they would be picking things in the Taihao ruins, and Li Qingshui wouldn't be able to stop them.
And the mountain master and the water mother-in-law can no longer describe the feelings in their hearts at this moment, why can the tiger baby have the three realms and nine transformations of the perfect cultivation at a young age, it seems that it has become not so important, the ethereal legend since ancient times is in front of us, what miracle can not be accepted? Ruoshan asked again: "Child, where is the mountain god?"
Huwa pointed to the Dharma seat in the center of the white jade altar and said, "The mountain god is not here, but he can see us and hear us speak." But if you want to talk to him, you have to sit there and enter the country......" He talked about the method of communicating with the mountain god, and when the spirit of the meditation is integrated with this small world, you can communicate with the mind of the mountain god.
Wakayama and Wakasui glanced at each other, Wakasui nodded slightly, and Wakayama ascended the altar and took a seat. His mood was a little apprehensive and excited, and he tried his best to collect his mind, and the voice of the mountain god immediately came from the original god: "Ruoshan, you are finally here!"
Ruoshan almost didn't leave, because the sound had too much impact on his mind. He has followed his elders to worship the mountain god since he was a child, and he also got the guidance of the mountain god to have his current cultivation, and after becoming the patriarch, he is the priest who leads the clan to worship the mountain god. The one who speaks at this moment is the god that the tribes in the wilderness have been worshipping for hundreds of years!
This is the first time that Wakayama has heard the mountain god speak like this, although there has been an exchange before, but it is only the mountain god who imprints a piece of thought and contains all kinds of information in his original god, and he does not talk like ordinary people, so he doesn't even know whether the mountain god is male or female. Ruoshan once heard Tiger Baby talk about the dream he had since he was a child, and he always saw a woman in the dream, and thought that Tiger Baby had received some kind of guidance left by the mountain god, and he also suspected that the real body of the mountain god was a woman.
Ruoshan now realized that he had guessed wrong, and listening to the voice of the mountain god, it was obviously a man, with an indescribable sense of vicissitudes in his majesty, but he couldn't tell how old he was. He hurriedly collected his heart and replied: "Mountain God, you have finally spoken again, for more than ten years, the tribes have not been guided by you, and too many things have happened in the mountains......"
If it weren't for the concentration of his mind in the fixed realm, if it was normal, the mountain master might be about to choke, and the excitement in his heart was indescribable. The mountain god sighed: "These years, it is difficult for you. You have finally fulfilled your youthful wish to become the lord of a city, but not in that faraway Ba Yuan, but right here. I have long known that you are the most outstanding talent within a radius of hundreds of miles and in a hundred years, and I have always been very optimistic about you, and you really did not disappoint me. ”
Ruoshan: "The mountain god doesn't want to praise me, the fall of the Qingshui clan, the internal strife and strife of the various tribes, and you can't be hidden, these years are really difficult." The good thing is that everything is in the past and you are still here...... Can you tell me what happened back then, who wiped out the Shimizu clan, and what trouble did you encounter?"
The mountain god no longer spoke, but instead imprinted a piece of thought in the original god of Wakayama, which contained a lot of information. The Qing Shui clan was suddenly attacked and wiped out by a powerful force from afar, and the mountain god was in retreat and cultivation at a critical juncture, and was also disturbed by the attack of the master, so that he was seriously injured and his body and spirit were damaged, and he could only watch all this happen.
Later events, including the rescue of Pan Gu and the tiger baby by the people of Lu Village, the mountain gods also saw it, but they were unable to communicate with people, and the mountain gods could not recover until today. And he himself is under surveillance, and in addition to communicating in this way on this white jade altar, if he wants to make contact with the outside world, he will be detected by powerful and murderous enemies.
The mountain god waited for many years, and finally had to take a risk, and when Yuliang sneaked into the vicinity of Huahai Village, he guided Pan Gu, who was running around in the mountains, to this place. No one would notice an inconspicuous dog in the mountains, which was the safest choice, but Pan Gu couldn't understand the complicated meaning at the time, but he led the tiger baby here in curiosity.
As for the cultivation of the tiger baby, the mountain god expressed shame, not his guidance. When this child watched the water and spin the cloth, he had naturally entered the initial realm. But he didn't know what cultivation was, so he cultivated to the second realm, so he could only communicate with the mountain god when he was brought by Pan Gu. And the mountain god told him not to tell the matter here, so as not to cause accidents.
That's how things went, and Li Qingshui didn't say a lie. But he deliberately omitted two things and did not mention them: first, he did not say who the murderer of the Qingshui clan was, and second, he did not tell Ruoshan that the tiger baby was not actually a bloodline orphan of the Qingshui clan, but a baby who was picked up on the road and sent to the Qingshui clan's walled city.
