Chapter 42 The stream is clear, and the hearts of the people are unpredictable
The Biluo Immortal Fruit is ripe at noon today, although it is not a particularly rare thing, but a Biluo Immortal Fruit can at least save you dozens of days of work for your current cultivation. ”
Dan Lingsheng, whose face was still cold and stern, conjured up a plant with red triangular leaves with one hand, and in addition to the red leaves, the most eye-catching thing about this plant was the emerald green fruit on the branches, like a snail-shaped kiwi fruit.
"The Biluo fairy fruit will bloom and bear fruit once a year, but the fruit will fall after half an hour of ripening, and it will rot in the soil, so you have to reach the Biluo Valley near the top of the mountain before noon, and each person will collect a Biluo fairy fruit, and roll it up with the leaves of the Biluo tree to eat, remember that the Biluo fruit is cold, which also contains toxins, and it depends on the leaves of the Biluo tree to dissolve, so you can only eat one, if you are greedy, you will bear the consequences!"
"This mountain peak is so steep!" Luo Bei and the others looked at it carefully, and they all nodded, but when they turned their heads again, Luo Bei couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart.
The cultivation arranged by Dan Lingsheng on this day was to go to the Heavenly Blade Peak to pick a Biluo Immortal Fruit that happened to ripen today, but the Heavenly Blade Peak in front of him was unprecedentedly steep. The entire mountain wall is almost vertical, a mountain road carved out on the mountain wall, like a ladder to the sky, looking from a distance, this mountain peak is really like a blade erected between heaven and earth, if it is not for the mountain road carved out on the mountain wall There is also an iron cable for handrails, Luo Bei thought that he might not be able to climb to the top.
"It seems that just like picking herbs, it is not only to make this Biluo Immortal Fruit have an auxiliary effect on our cultivation, but also to hone our will. ”
"Luobei!" was thinking about it in Luobei's heart, when someone suddenly shouted behind him. "Senior Brother Xuan Wuqi?" Luo Bei turned around in surprise, but it was Xuan Wuqi standing on the mountain road behind him, a little panting, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
"What, didn't you expect it to be me?" Xuan Wuqi looked at Luo Bei and the others, and snorted arrogantly, "The test you suffered, I also suffered when I was facing the wall, do you think I can't pass that test?"
"Senior Brother Xuan Wuqi, I didn't mean that. Luo Bei was a little stunned, he had never had half of the same thoughts as Xuan Wuqi, and he was a little confused about Xuan Wuqi's words at all.
"Facing the wall for ten days, after being punished, he is still so aggressive, could it be that people who have cultivated to a high level are all shouting out on their lips?" But Dan Lingsheng, who stood aside and looked at the Xuan Wuqi who came over, also snorted coldly.
"Uncle Shi has taught me a lesson. Xuan Wuqi didn't have a half-unhappy look, he just saluted respectfully towards Dan Lingsheng, "Disciple Xuan Wuqi has been taught, and I sincerely ask you to join this trial." ”
Dan Lingsheng was silent at first, looked at Xuan Wuqi coldly for a moment, and finally waved his hand, ""
"Thank you, uncle!" Xuan Wuqi walked to Luobei's voice with great joy, looked at Luobei, and said heavily in his heart, "Luobei, although I was punished for cultivating for ten days less than you, I will definitely not lose to you!"
"Senior Brother Lin Hang, why don't you leave?"
But Luo Bei's attention at the moment was not on him at all.
The Biluo Immortal Fruit ripens at noon, counting half an hour after it is ripe, Luo Bei and the others only have more than two hours to reach the Biluo Valley that is close to the top of the mountain.
When Dan Lingsheng nodded in agreement with Xuan Wuqi to join, Luo Bei, Cai Shu and the others were already ready to come out. But Luo Bei was standing still at this time, his face was a little pale, so Luo Bei couldn't help but want to ask.
"Luo....Senior Brother Luobei....you....you go in front first, and I'll walk in the end. Lin Hang said a little cowardly.
"Why?" Luo Bei looked at Lin Hang in confusion.
Lin Hang looked at Luobei, and after a while, he finally explained in a hurry. "I....I... Go... Last year, I also climbed this Heavenly Blade Peak, but I couldn't climb it. The mountain road is so narrow that it can't accommodate two people up and down at the same time... ”
Listening to Lin Hang's explanation, Luo Beifang realized that Lin Hang had also received this practice last year, but because of his inconvenient legs and feet, the mountain road was too steep to climb. And there is no chain handrail on one side of this mountain road, and it is vertical and steep, and now Lin Hang is afraid that when he walks in front and can't climb up, the people behind him are also blocked by himself, and it is difficult to move forward.
It turned out that Lin Hang didn't want to drag down the rest of the brothers.
"It's okay!" Luo Bei immediately said to Lin Hang after he came to his senses, "Senior Brother Lin Hang, you have been cultivating for another year, no matter what, you will definitely make some progress compared to the previous year." What's more, if you have inconvenient legs and feet, you should be in the middle of the team, and we can also help you go up together. ”
"It's... How can this be, in case I.... ”
"The Divine Talisman I gave you last time, did you use it? It doesn't matter if you use it, I still have it with you, if you really can't hold on to it, I'll help you paste two Divine Talismans, and you will definitely be able to go up." Biluo fairy fruit has such an effect, we can't miss it. ”
"That's right, Senior Brother Lin Hang, you're in the middle. ”
"Yes, if we want to go up, let's go up together... ”
Lin Hang was still reluctant to go up, but when he heard Luo Bei say that, and heard Cai Shu, Ling Dongshan and others also say that, he stopped talking, lowered his head and walked silently behind Luo Bei.
At this moment, the divine talismans that Luo Bei gave him were in his arms, wrapped in a square cloth.
These few divine talismans were the last time he went to Heavenly Candle Peak to look for herbs, and he was not willing to use them.
But what made him no longer insist was not these few magic talismans, but that he couldn't bear to refrain from Luobei's sincere friendship and kindness.
The words of the other senior brothers also moved him like never before, and he lowered his head, not because of the humility and cowardice he had always been used to, but because he couldn't help but cry.
Lin Hang felt that it was only after Luobei came that everyone slowly treated themselves, and now everyone is not ridiculing him, but caring and helping. But when he thought so, he didn't think that a large part of it was also because of himself. Because he is also one of the few people who passed the cruel test, even if he lived such a humble life in Shushan, he still refused to poison the people around him.
And the few people who passed the test have a much closer relationship than before.
Perhaps, true friendship can only arise in the midst of real trials.
"Senior Brother Lin Hang. Just when Lin Hang was following behind Luo Bei, when he wanted to cry, plus Xuan Wuqi, a total of seven people were active and naughty ram brocade silk suddenly laughed, "Senior Brother Lin Hang, you shouldn't be in the last line, you should let Senior Sister Cai Shu be in the last line." ”
"Why?" Lin Hang, Luo Bei and the others didn't understand for a while, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"Because we men look at men's **, it doesn't matter, but if the senior sister climbs in front, we....this seems a little indecent. The ram brocade grinned.
"What are you talking about?" As soon as the ram brocade finished speaking, Cai Shu jumped up suddenly, "Do you want to die?
"Haha, Senior Sister Caishu, I know it's wrong. The ram brocade jumped away with a smile and begged for mercy, "You have a lot, I won't dare next time." ”
"Hmph, next time you mess around, I won't tear your mouth apart. What are you calling me, have you eaten too much and eaten into a rice bucket, don't you remember that I arrived in Shushan earlier than you?"
"Oh... I forgot, it's only Luobei who can call you junior sister, senior sister Caishu.... ”
......
"It's strange, why don't I feel like I can't climb up this time, is my cultivation really improved a lot?"
Luo Bei and his party marched with difficulty hand and foot on the mountain road of Tianjian Peak. Although all of them were sweating profusely and panting like a cow, Lin Hang also felt as if his internal organs were about to jump out of his mouth, but what surprised Lin Hang in the team was that he did not climb this mountain like last year, and he had the feeling that he couldn't climb it as soon as he climbed.
It's only an hour now, and although he rested twice on the way, Lin Hang followed Luobei and had already climbed half the height. If you look up again, as long as you go a few hundred meters, it is no longer this kind of steep mountain road, but a flat ridge.
So this time, if nothing else, I can already climb up anyway.
In fact, what Lin Hang lacks most now is not anything else, but self-confidence and the recognition of others, and his qualifications are not as bad as he imagined. His cultivation progress was slow, largely due to faith and lack of recognition from others.
And these, Luobei has never lacked.
Looking from behind, Lin Hang saw that Luobei's entire back was soaked with sweat, and he could also hear Luobei's heavy breathing, but Luobei's back gave him an incomparably powerful feeling, just this back gave Lin Hang confidence, making him feel that following Luobei, he would definitely be able to reach Nabiluo Valley!
"Senior Brother Xuan Wuqi's will is really firm!"
Luo Bei didn't know what Lin Hang was thinking, and there was Xuan Wuqi in front of him. This arrogant and stubborn young man is in front of Luobei and climbs to the front. Obviously, Xuan Wuqi's physical strength will not be much stronger than Luo Bei. But in the last section of the steep mountain road of hundreds of meters, Xuan Wuqi actually climbed up without resting once. Turning around on a slightly flat ridge, he looked at Luobei.
Seeing Xuan Wuqi like this, Luo Bei was also deeply inspired, and climbed up in one breath.
"Hmph, it's still slower than me. However, in Xuan Wuqi's eyes, Luo Bei, who didn't have the intention of competing with him, became deliberately competing with him.
Sweaty heavy shirts.
After climbing the last few hundred meters, the previous six people who climbed the ridge were all wet with sweat!
On the contrary, in the end, the most delicate looking picking, just wet the vest, obviously the bottom of the pickings is the best.
"Hahahaha!" Luo Bei and the others panted for a while, seeing each other's embarrassment, and suddenly couldn't help laughing together.
"That should be Biluo Valley. ”
In the midst of laughter, Luo Bei suddenly saw that near the top of the mountain, there was a concave valley in front of him, and from a distance, it revealed a crimson color.
"It smells so good!"
"yes, what a strong aroma!"
Before they arrived in the valley, Luo Bei and the others had already asked about a strong fragrance, which seemed to have a hint of sweetness, which made people feel relaxed and happy when they smelled it.
"It's beautiful!"
As soon as they entered this flat valley, everyone was stunned.
In the entire valley, there are all the blue snail trees that are more than two people tall!
The leaves of the snail tree are palm-sized and red, while the dead leaves that fall to the ground are golden yellow. At present, the ground in the valley is covered with a thick layer of golden leaves, and there are basically no weeds, and the whole valley is close to the top of the mountain, ventilated and dry, and walking on the thick leaves is like stepping on the rare blanket of a rich family.
The top of his head is a large area of red, but the soles of his feet are golden.
This kind of violent color impact made the group deeply shocked.
"Biluoguo!"
Suddenly, the ram brocade let out a shout of joy, and the crowd immediately appeared, and on the same red branches, there were sparse, emerald green fruits that looked like snails. The skin of the fruit is very thin, and the inside exudes a watery luster, and the sweet aroma is from the green snail fruit.
Just by looking at the color and smelling the fragrance, Luobei and Cai Shu can be sure that this snail fruit is already ripe.
"Let's pick the fruit first. ”
Luo Bei immediately picked one, wrapped it in a piece of biluo leaf according to Dan Lingsheng, and then handed it to Cai Shu casually.
Cai Shu also took it naturally, Luo Bei picked another one himself, and just wrapped it in leaves, he suddenly heard Ling Dongshan cheering again. Following the sound, there was a clear stream in the valley, meandering.
After two hours of hard climbing, the group was thirsty and smoking. Suddenly seeing this clear stream, the group couldn't help but cheer and ran over.
First come to a few mountain springs to quench your thirst, and then come to taste this snail fairy fruit. After the ram brocade laughed, he leaned down and wanted to drink water. "Wait. Ling Dongshan, who was the first to show this stream, shouted to him with some hesitation. "Although the water of this stream is clear, I don't know if it will be okay if I drink it. ”
Listening to him, the group was a little hesitant, but as if God deliberately refuted Ling Dongshan, not long after Ling Dongshan's words fell, a gray squirrel suddenly jumped down from a blue snail tree not far from everyone, like a dragonfly dotting water, drank a few sips of stream water, and then jumped onto the tree and disappeared without a trace.
"Looks like there's nothing wrong with that. Luo Bei and the others were stunned, and couldn't help but smile at each other.
"Delicious!" the ram brocade was the first to take a big sip, as if he had drunk good wine.
Luo Bei also took a sip with a smile, the stream water was clear, and there was a hint of sweetness unique to mountain springs.
"Haha, then let's drink together"
Miao Mu simply sank half of his face into the stream and opened his mouth to drink.
But at this moment, what Luo Bei and the others didn't expect was that several teenagers wearing dark clothes who seemed to be slightly older than them appeared in their sight.
These people seemed to have come down from the top of the mountain, and looking at the clothes they were wearing, Luo Bei and Cai Shu could see at a glance that they should be the same astounding disciples as Zong Zhen and them.
Luobei and his party, who didn't expect others to come, suddenly saw these people, and they were all a little unconsciously stunned.
But before they could make any moves, these young men in dark clothes didn't seem to see their existence at all, and walked directly past them not far away, to the upper reaches of the stream where they were.
"Senior Brother Hongjing, the stream here is very cool, why don't you soak your feet together?"
Regardless of Miao Mu and the others who were still drinking, among the several young men in Xuanjiao, a young man with a fair face, slender eyebrows, and a somewhat sharp face, said this to a young man with a round face and thin eyes next to him, and then he took off his shoes and socks as if no one was around, and soaked his feet into the stream.
"Okay, let's soak our feet together. The other people also smiled, took off their shoes and socks, and soaked their feet in the stream, stirring.
"These people are here to deliberately find fault!" Luo Bei and Cai Shu glanced at each other, and in an instant, such a thought appeared in the minds of the two people!
