Chapter 185: Respect the Earth, Go to War

The dark and boundless sky, the vast and boundless barren sand.

Su Hanshan sat in front of the Five Organs Temple, not moving for a long time, staring at the five-colored strange tree.

Yang Baifa, Du Yuanzhen, including Li Baisui, Cui Bai, Zhang Anshou and others, all the martial artists who have entered the realm of the spirit have gathered here.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, when the people arrived, Su Hanshan's body just began to show obvious changes.

His breath was quiet, and his figure began to fade and become transparent, gradually allowing the person's gaze to pass through his body and see the scenery on the other side.

All people's bodies in the dream realm are, in the final analysis, the manifestation of the spirit, and after ordinary people enter the heavenly dream, they will manifest into a state of approximate entities, and there is no way to adjust themselves.

And the operation of the mind of the strong can greatly affect the state of one's spiritual body.

Su Hanshan's figure has faded like this now, not because of injury, but only because of his mind, which is in an extremely gloomy and depressed state.

Du Yuanzhen and the others could clearly feel the gloomy thoughts he exuded, and Sun Xingzu, who was the worst in strength, was even sad and inexplicably depressed.

But soon, the bleak thoughts began to change, faint but not dark, quiet and tenacious, day after day, calm, perennial, gradually calm......

This process becomes very slow, but it is also clear that it is a gradual upward process of mentality, sadness, fear, joy, hatred, joy, wildness, and so on.

Du Yuanzhen and the others watched for maybe an hour, and felt that Su Hanshan's emotional changes at each stage became more subtle and complex, more specific, as if they were facing some events and situations in a real way.

In this way, Du Yuanzhen and others can also do it, maybe it will be slower, but this is not a problem.

The problem is that Su Hanshan has not deliberately put his spirit towards the Five Organs Temple until now, but only focused on changing his mentality.

The onlookers did not see the slightest sign that he could establish a connection with the Five Organs Temple, and they were full of puzzlement.

None of them lacked this bit of patience, but they couldn't help but make some guesses of their own and think about it.

Could it be that Su Hanshan has any secret method, through the drastic change of emotions, after a long period of accumulation, suddenly burst out with a spiritual impact far beyond the norm, hit that dream symbol, and get a response?

The crowd watched and waited in confusion.

Su Hanshan's mentality continued to change, but each stage transitioned very slowly, and finally, when his mind slipped into a new stage, his eyes changed slightly.

Everyone in the audience was sharp enough, and they immediately perked up and watched carefully.

But Su Hanshan did not attack, and there was nothing unusual about the Five Organs Temple.

"No, it seems that he and the tree have become harmonious?"

Du Yuanzhen was not sure about this conjecture in her heart.

Su Hanshan had already smiled, raised his hands, and put them in front of his chest.

The action of putting hands together has a lot of meaning attached to Buddhism.

However, as early as the 180th generation of the Buddha's ancestors, before he was born, this gesture could already represent awe, prayer and gratitude.

At that time, the object of the ancestors' prayers was not the immortal saint and Buddha with a specific personality symbol, but the wind, rain, thunder and lightning, mountains, forests and rivers, the vast sky, and the boundless earth.

Whether it is farming, gathering, or hunting, they are all born from the earth and sacrificed to the five internal organs.

That is the most simple, the desire for the continuation of life, sacrificing the five organs, in exchange for life, and being grateful to the earth because the five organs have been sacrificed.

The so-called Five Organs Temple, in fact, can also be regarded as a kind of earth temple that is most closely related to people and the earth.

Five fingers of the left hand, five fingers of the right hand, and the hands are folded, not only worshipping the five organs of the people, but also worshipping the five directions of the earth, incomparably full and grateful.

Yes, it's just enrichment and gratitude, no infiltration and observation, no attack and analysis, and no attitude of studying the Five Organs Temple opposite as a martial arts collection at all.

However, everyone who watched could feel a strong sense of fulfillment and gratitude.

The temple of the five internal organs naturally glows with a luster of jade, no longer like a strange tree, but more like a palace surrounded by five kinds of jade.

It is clearly divided into five colors, but it is simple and heavy, and the luster that does not make people feel dizzy at all shines on Su Hanshan.

Between one person and one temple, the light is getting thicker and thicker.

"I didn't try to comprehend the deeper mysteries of martial arts, but this dream symbol gave him a response?!"

Du Wentong was puzzled, could it be that he just gratefully bowed to these dream symbols?

Wrong! Du Wentong had already grasped something in his mind, but he hadn't figured it out for a while.

"Maybe it's because the main body of the Five Organs Temple is not a martial arts ...... in the first place."

Du Yuanzhen's eyebrows were raised, and her eyes were as black as paint, revealing a very clear look.

"The understanding and gratitude for the five internal organs and the earth is the deepest foundation of this five internal organs temple at the beginning, and if it is so on, other dream symbols are not based on martial arts."

Although the dream symbol can correspond to a martial arts concept, it does not contain more than just martial arts-related cultures.

In this world that attaches great importance to visualization and mood feelings, all martial arts concepts are derived from the perception of a certain period of life.

Being in a certain type of identity for a long time, engaged in a certain industry, the cognition and feeling of the world may develop into a kind of martial arts artistic conception, and after the sublimation of freehand metaphors, it will evolve into a kind of visualization object.

From this point of view, the martial arts of this world do not yet have a complete discipline, and in the process of cultivating breakthroughs, they rely heavily on the psychological silhouettes projected from other walks of life.

This is very different from the Great Chu Dynasty, the martial arts of the Great Chu Dynasty is too mature, and too objective, the development of martial arts relies on the observation and summary of the laws of the operation of heaven and earth, and then develops more ways to use it.

There, simply studying martial arts can be a lifelong career, and other things, in turn, can be regarded as vassal values of martial arts.

It was precisely because of the difference in the world that Su Hanshan was the first to realize that he could not use the mentality of martial arts to contact these dream symbols.

For example, the symbol of the golden cicada, although it is expressed in martial arts, is to capture thoughts, create resonance, and shatter people's souls.

But it is very likely that the most fundamental and extensive artistic conception is really the compassionate desire to enlighten people and bring everyone to liberation together.

One is to kill and kill, shattering the soul, and the other is to be merciful and compassionate, which is really the opposite mentality.

However, these things that Su Hanshan knew, if they were simply conveyed to Yang Baifa, Du Yuanzhen and others in words, they might not be of much use, but might increase some wavering doubts.

In a world that focuses on spiritual touch, the best effect will be achieved by directly letting them witness it with their own eyes and digging out this layer of truth in person.

As Du Yuanzhen spoke, he recalled his experience of being in contact with the nine-headed phoenix for a long time, and he already had further conjectures.

The nine-headed phoenix is the noble and noble god of fire, and it is also the symbol of the monarch.

The dream symbol that Yang Baifa found was not one of the twenty-four holy spirits, but the speed of comprehension at this moment was no slower than Du Yuanzhen.

The saying that fireflies entrust the soul is actually the memory of the deceased and the memory of the past life.

If you want to get in touch with the dream symbol with the mentality of reminiscence, then there is really too much to recall in his old life.

"It's really a dream symbol suitable for the cultivation of the elderly."

Yang Baifa laughed, and didn't look at the follow-up development of the Five Organs Temple, so he turned around and left.

Du Yuanzhen stayed for a while, and found that Su Hanshan maintained that state, and became more and more in a better state, affirmed the idea in his heart, and turned around to find the nine-headed phoenix.

The rest of the people heard these words, and combined with Su Hanshan's performance, they all understood what was going on.

Most of them, although their strength levels are different now, when they broke through the spirit and entered the body, they used the Holy Spirit to find the dream symbol corresponding to them, and it was very simple, and they left in a hurry.

In the next ten days, every time they entered the dream realm, they would simulate Su Hanshan's practice, adjust their mentality in front of the corresponding dream symbols, and try in turn.

However, although they can rely on visualization to generate various emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, they are only a rough category, and the only way to form a specific state of mind is to rely on memories to help.

However, in their memories, there may not be a suitable scene, and they cannot find specific experiences and feelings, and it is always difficult to arouse a response from the dream symbolism.

Even Du Wentong, when he went to comprehend the nine-headed phoenix with his sister, only had a faint response, which was one point worse than Du Yuanzhen, and it couldn't be compared with the smooth process of Su Hanshan that day.

"Jiufeng Pill is the Holy Spirit developed by Wude Taizong, back then, they didn't have such a convenient medium as the Cangtian Dream, they were able to vaguely touch the mystery of the dream symbol, and get a response, now I am also the Lord of Chang'an, the King of Wude, is it really so much worse?"

A touch of unwillingness appeared on Du Wentong's face, and he looked at the nine-headed phoenix in a daze.

The prosperity of the Wude Dynasty has passed for a long time, and in the middle of the Dynasty, when the local Jiedu envoy rebelled for the first time, he even captured Chang'an.

At that time, the imperial court was unable to form an army, and there was a shortage of elite soldiers and horses, and even seconded the alien army on the frontier to recapture Chang'an, and claimed that the surrounding areas of Chang'an had been occupied by traitors over the years, and the people were all thieves, which belonged to the realm of thieves, and it was "logical" to let these armies loot wantonly as their reward.

In the middle of the dynasty, it was like this, and at the end of the dynasty, let alone mentioned.

As a person born in the last years of the imperial dynasty, Du Wentong has always only listened to the prosperity of Taizong as a legend, but deep down he actually does not believe it to be true.

After the corpse mutiny, their Du family took the lead, unified the surrounding areas of Chang'an, conquered the cities outward, and connected them together, although limited by the general environment, the territory and the number of people could not be compared with before.

But deep in Du Wentong's heart, he is extremely confident in the way of governing alone, and perhaps he has far surpassed Emperor Taizong.

But in front of this nine-headed phoenix, his self-confidence was smashed head-on.

Not to mention Emperor Taizong, he seems to be worse than his sister.

"The king still doesn't believe it."

Du Wentong secretly gritted his teeth, and made a wish in his heart, "If you can repel the living corpse and settle down, I will definitely ask you, a nine-headed bird, to see more of the king's abilities!" ”

He had time to think about it here, also because he was already very tired in the process of trying his best to spread his thoughts today and trying to gain the resonance of the nine-headed phoenix.

Although I am unwilling, I still have enough self-control in the end and know how to relax one by one.

After calming down, Du Wentong left the nine-headed phoenix first and walked around in the dream.

The dream realm is still so lively, and the number of people who have entered the dream realm in various cities has increased recently.

According to Su Hanshan, this means that the vitality of the will of the sky is awakened more and more, and the scope of the dream realm in reality has expanded.

Although he still didn't know how the will of heaven would help on the battlefield in the end, Du Wentong's initial doubts had already dissipated with the development of the dream.

He himself could now feel that the Heavenly Will was indeed accumulating strength, waiting for the opportunity.

Before he knew it, he had walked to the vicinity of the Five Organs Temple.

Su Hanshan, as usual, was still sitting in front of the Five Organs Temple.

Masters can control the length of their sleep, but because of the contact with dream symbols, the level of exertion is different, and the amount of time they stay in the dream is also different.

Recently, Su Hanshan was able to stay in the dream realm for more than eight hours a day, and it was obvious that the benefits of the Five Organs Temple were far greater than the burden for him.

Du Wentong was a little puzzled by this.

The Five Organs Temple worships the five organs and is grateful for the meaning of the earth, and the common old peasants should be more likely to have a similar mentality, but they can't bear the pressure of the dream symbol.

Even if he is in charge of one side and attaches importance to farming, it is only because when farming is harvested, the place is stable, it is convenient to rule, and it is convenient to supply and train troops.

It's hard to think about being grateful to the earth.

Su Hanshan is young, so cultivated, where did he get the mentality of being grateful to the earth, and he can still maintain it.

This kind of long-term thought cannot be surged from the root by the manipulation of emotions alone.

This is actually due to Su Hanshan's previous life.

In his previous life, he was born in a peasant family, when he was a child, the adults in the family farmed by themselves, and when he was busy with farming, he would also help turn the grain on the drying field, and run around in the field after harvesting, and he had a kindness to the land since he was a child.

More importantly, he loved all kinds of miscellaneous books, TV popular science programs, and in that era, he could often see the greatness of agriculture preached everywhere.

In archaeological discoveries, human beings already knew how to dig canals and cultivate and harvest tens of thousands of years ago, which is almost equivalent to mythology in the minds of the people of the Wude Dynasty.

Not to mention that he is a martial artist in the realm of true form, even if he surpasses the Xuanti, steps into the Divine Mansion, the Yuan Shen flies to the sky, and travels thousands of miles, compared to the tens of thousands of years of fate between people and the earth, he must know how to be in awe and admiration.

Du Wentong can see that these days, a large area of empty and barren sand around the Five Organs Temple has been dyed with five-colored light.

Those strange trees and peaks that have not been awakened must also be bathed in this light.

Su Hanshan sat in front of the Five Organs Temple, bathing in such a light throughout, and the connection between him and the Five Organs Temple became more and more stable.

The five visceral fighting fist Dafa created by him comes from Da Chu, the framework comes from the Southern Song Dynasty, and now, there is the finishing touch of martial arts.

"Huh?"

When the connection between Su Hanshan and the Five Organs Temple was completely stable, he suddenly felt that in the sea of dreams of all beings who had been silent for fifty years, there were other dream symbols, and they were in a state of awakening.

It was not a nine-headed phoenix and a fluorescent stone lamp, but a very repulsive and hostile existence that made the Five Organs Temple.

Su Hanshan also sensed a few hints of familiarity from it.

"Yes...... Corpse demons? ”

In another place, the white prince under the corpse soul banyan tree also looked suspicious and turned his head to look.

He groaned slightly, then flew in that direction, and soon came to the edge of the range shrouded by the source of the corpse transformation, but he did not stop, his eyes were bloody, and he took a big step out steadily.

The demonic corpse soul banyan tree, cracked a branch, spread in that direction, and the top of the branch hung above the head of the white prince, like a shadow.

As the white prince strode and flew away, the branch became longer and thinner, and the light was restrained, as thin as a hair, hidden between the dark canopy.

When he climbed a high peak, the distant scene came into view.

Between the vast barren sand, trees and rocks, a large group of figures as small as ants moved separately, gathering and scattering, and in full swing.

Because there are so many people, I'm afraid that there will be more than one million, so even if you are so far away, you can feel the passionate atmosphere.

Bai Wang Ye was shocked: "Is this the means prepared by the will of the sky through the hands of that person?" ”

Bai Wang Ye has some understanding of the ignorance of the will of the sky, and originally thought that even if someone accidentally hit and understood some guidance, he should continue to follow the route of Burning Heaven Treasure Jade.

It is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, and the disposable mass killing weapon is not very controllable, at most, it takes a shorter time to manufacture and the number is larger.

He has been thinking about how to test the situation recently.

Now it seems that his guess was wrong, and the other side may use another way.

"This is forcing the king to do it in advance."

After Bai Wangye stared at him for a moment, he muttered, and suddenly retreated, hiding in the darkness and quickly moving away and disappearing.

Not long after he left, a figure in the crowd in the distance flew towards him at great speed, stepping on the top of this mountain.

Su Han Mountain looked ahead, the peaks and strange rocks, sparse and sparse, the yellow sand on the bottom of the sea, the bubbles floating, everything was as usual, and there was nothing unusual.

When it is far away, the direction induced by the Five Organs Temple is still relatively obvious, and the closer it gets, the more blurred it feels.

After thinking about it, Su Hanshan cautiously leaned forward.

………………

In the three cities in the northwest, the blast furnace is boiling and the flames are raging.

A large number of soldiers and horses of the White Palace's mansion are smelting bronze and iron here, hammering copper and iron, and there is a clanging sound.

The high-level who showed the appearance of the corpse demon also took matters into their own hands, cooperating with the craftsmen in the army to cast chariots, and after each chariot was cast, it was transferred to the mountains, scattered and hidden, and when the time was ripe, all of them were launched.

"How's the chariot forged?"

The figure of the white prince fell from the sky, his white hair fluttering, and the golden crown shone brightly.

The adjutant general hurriedly said: "There are still three unfinished, there are many inferior bronze and iron tools in the city, and they are not enough to cast, we have appropriated some weapons and armor that are not urgent in the army, and sent people to the mine to dig ore and come back to smelt." ”

"No need!"

Bai Wang Ye said, "The missing parts should be replaced by those good woods, wrapped in copper and iron sheets, for the time being." ”

"These chariots are not real chariots after all, but moving altars, and only a few wooden accessories have been replaced, so it's okay."

The adjutant general was surprised: "Why are you so eager? ”

"It's just a small change, and the chariot is handed over to the king."

Bai Wangye's eyes were dark, and he said, "You go and inform Dingchen that the army of living corpses they gathered from the southwest can be driven towards Chang'an overnight." ”

Bai Dingchen is the eldest prince of Bai Wangye and the eldest brother of Bai Zhongtuo.

As soon as the words fell, Bai Wang Ye reached out and grabbed it.

No corpse qi poured out, but within a radius of a hundred zhang, a blood-red air flow was generated out of thin air, and several large houses around it were all scattered.

In the blink of an eye, it seemed that more than a dozen blood-colored whirlwinds were rushing from the ground, whirling and swaying, and all the tiles and timbers in those houses were shattered.

Just what was left of the sturdy wood was sucked up and fell towards the chariot.

………………

The bottom of the sea in the dream realm of all beings.

After exploring for a long time, Suhan Mountain stopped between a desert that was too empty.

He could be sure that the dream symbol with the scent of a corpse demon was nearby, but it didn't seem to be able to be observed in a normal way.

Su Hanshan did not act rashly, but looked at the back of his hand and considered if there was any way to take the initiative to mention this matter to the will of the sky through the eyes of the sky.

As he pondered, the eyes of the sky flickered.

Su Hanshan's heart shook slightly.

This flicker does not mean that the will of the sky feels his thoughts, but that at that moment just now, a large number of dreamers were awakened and out of the dream.

"All the people in the Western Xiongguan were all out of the dream just now."

"Is it the army of living corpses that launched a massive offensive in the middle of the night?"
