Volume 1 Smoke and Rain Chapter 66 Cold Snow and Plum Blossoms (3)
The snow falling from the sky pierced Li Shuishan's heart.
When the second elder of Meihua saw Li Shuishan standing up, he wanted to step forward and ask about the situation.
Li Shuishan stretched out his hand to signal that he was fine, and said:
"What's so strange about the seal you're talking about?"
One of the two elders of plum blossoms, Mengshan said: "The sky is full of plum blossoms, and the sky is full of snow." I saw plum blossoms on the tree, one by one, with purple evil intentions. After that, the barrier can be seen with the naked eye. This barrier is at the end of the road, and you don't know what you'll see along the way, but you can't be wrong. ”
"Are you sure you're right?" asked Li Shuishan.
Meng Shan assured: "Tang Ke and I have been trapped here for decades, so naturally we will not lose our lives for the sake of lies. If the inheritor of the fairy sword is displeased, then we are killing ourselves. Let yourself never see the outside world. ”
Li Shuishan knew that the second elder Meihua had suffered here for so long, but he didn't believe what they had just said. The people who can meet here, who are trapped here, don't eat or drink, don't have any food to survive.
There is only one possibility, and they are also monks.
This illusion has long been seen by Li Shuishan, and as for the black-robed man, he half-believes it.
If the black-robed man is a storyteller, then when he left, he also instructed him to see that he had become a qualified Taoist when he met the next time. An ordinary mortal, stepping on the path of cultivation. To put it bluntly, this is not an extremely simple matter. Even if Li Shuishan has a small Dao heart that is fast and complete, he still has too much to know and too much to experience.
It is not possible for the storyteller to help Li Shuishan.
He thought about it carefully, maybe it was the red-robed man in the temple, the old man.
He stretched out his palm and looked at the bead boy mark in his palm, there was no change, he felt that it was possible, maybe it was impossible, Li Shuishan couldn't think of it.
As for others, he frowned.
"Go back. I'll go myself. ”
The two elders of the plum blossoms looked at each other and helped each other back.
At this time, the flower cat found no one in the house, probably because of the warmth of the fire, which made him accidentally sleepy for a while, and when he looked up, he was gone.
Then, continuing to lower his head into his bookshelf, he muttered, "It's safe here." ”
......
Li Shuishan held the sword, not afraid of the cold, and walked to the end of the road step by step, only to find that there were more plum blossoms here than just now, and the sense of impact was more intense. Just now there were only a dozen trees, and there are hundreds of trees here.
Each tree is like observing Li Shuishan, like a living thing.
Seeing a strange breath, the plum tree opened a big eye, revealing a breath, like a human, "Who are you?
Li Shuishan was not surprised, since he had seen the bamboo mother, he knew that there was a spirit at this time, and everything had a spirit. This kind of spirit race lives in a small tribe, a small group. In nature, it cannot be seen in the eyes of mortals, only Taoists and cultivators can see it.
The Spirit Race is also like a legendary tribe.
In his memory, he had not read any books about this, but he understood that they could also grow up and become human beings with the ability to fly to the heavens and the earth, and if they were too strong, they would be hunted down by the Taoists, just like the book wrote, "People walk on the earth, see things and commit murder, and kill with swords." ”
It's also a short passage from the storyteller's strange book.
"I'm going to go back, to the end. Li Shuishan replied.
Several plum trees on the periphery were talking, but none of them stopped Li Shuishan. It's not because of the long sword in his hand. It was still because the ice and snow under the ground blew his mouth too wide, so he didn't take a few steps.
An old voice came out.
"Boy, please stay. ”
Li Shuishan stopped and didn't see any figures, as for the few faces on the plum tree next to him, they all closed their mouths, as if the few words they just said made them lose a lot of physical strength. Behind a snowdrift, a huge plum tree emerged.
The plum tree has dozens of zhang, fist-sized plum blossoms, if you look up and see the peak, you will know that there are several large adult heads, blooming petals are swallowing the snow in the air, chewing slowly. The branches spread out enough to cover a large temple, but it was a few hundred meters away from Li Shui Mountain.
He had to step on the snow and see through the snow to see a little.
The huge plum tree continued to call: "Young man, I know that you have a lot of doubts, you come here, and I will help you solve them." What the second plum blossom elder knows is also what I told him. But they don't know everything. ”
Li Shuishan turned his head and said in the direction of the voice: "I'm really curious, but the voice of the senior is a little old, if there is any killing intent towards me, I can't stop it." Besides, the seniors are very large, and I can still see a little bit in the snow. ”
The huge plum tree, mobilizing its branches, came to Li Shuishan's side, dropped a plum blossom, the purple on the plum blossom was even stronger, Li Shuishan picked up the petals, you can see that there seems to be a small life inside, vivid.
"This is one of my destiny spirits, I don't have any murderous intent towards you, I just want to tell you about this place, and I beg you one thing. ”
"What's the matter?" replied Li Shuishan.
"I also invite Xiaoyou to come in and talk. ”
The snow in front of him was blown away, and it became a quiet passage to the depths of the plum blossom forest. The snow couldn't get into the path, and even the few inches above his head were completely cut off, and the slight heat melted the snow.
Li Shuishan did not immediately follow the path and walked directly into the plum blossom forest.
If he didn't go, the predecessors of this plum tree still gave him this seemingly important essence of fate, but this essence of fate didn't feel much effect in his hands. There is still some warmth in the hand, which can get rid of a little chill. It's just that he has a fairy sword, which can instantly erase the coldness of the outlet.
If it didn't work, the Plum Tree old-timers wouldn't have been so respectful of Li Shuishan, and they opened a separate passage for him to enter. If it is a "Hongmen Banquet", the fairy sword in his hand may still be a great deterrent.
"I do have a lot of unresolved doubts, so it shouldn't be bad. ”
He lifted his feet and walked slowly.
When they arrived at the plum blossom forest, all the plum trees here looked at this strange boy with wide eyes, perhaps because he was holding a fairy sword in his hand, it was a little difficult to open his eyes, exhale, and continue to fall into a deep sleep.
Where does Li Shuishan understand that the plum blossom tree here is a kind of spirit race, but as the existence of the spirit race, he should not be afraid of this cold, and the plum blossoms are also in full bloom here, there must be many people passing by here, and they will not give this huge plum blossom forest, this predecessor a little help.
It's just that the more he thinks about things, the more peculiar they feel.
Follow the snow-free path to the depths.
In a clear line of sight, a huge plum tree stood in front of him. At a glance, he could only see one of his lowest branches, the slightly warped branches, the huge branches, and the branches that stretched out into the white sky. When I saw the huge plum tree in Matoki, I was a little excited. The center of the plum tree is empty, revealing a small hole.
The sound of vicissitudes in it lingered in his ears.
"Senior, is it really so huge?" Li Shuishan didn't believe that this tree could be so big, only those thousand-year-old trees would be like this, and the plum blossom tree only had thin branches, but it changed its appearance here. Completely similar to the unseen dryads in the mountains.
Of course, this plum blossom forest is a spirit race, and some tree spirits are not enough to match such an identity.
Li Shuishan drilled into the tree hole, and there was a small hot spring in it.
The hot spring looked steaming, but only a few drops of water fell from it, and a branch with an old face curled up and stopped on the hot spring. The face of the plum blossom tree is the size of a wooden basin, but the facial features are three-dimensional and clear, and even his beard stands one by one, hanging down under his mouth. This appearance looks like that of an old man in his seventies or eighties among ordinary people.
He didn't open his eyes with a curled face, but just said to Li Shuishan: "Little friend, thank you for coming." Maybe you're the last Terran I've ever seen in my life, I haven't seen a mortal come to this place since the upheaval, and it's still a temple with the power to protect you. ”
"I was a consolation before I died, and I was willing to entrust it one last time. ”
Li Shuishan didn't understand what this plum blossom tree senior meant, and asked instead: "The senior just promised me that I still have to do everything on the road?"
The plum tree senior said, "Make a number." ”
"It's just that I'm going to tell you that after this snowstorm, there will be a world that you see. There's a view you'll never forget, the best view I've ever seen in my life. I even look up a few times when I look up. ”
Li Shuishan was also very curious.
The senior of the plum blossom tree continued: "Maybe in the eyes of you mortals, you can only see one with a few scenes, and from time to time there are other objects to interfere, but here, there are countless birds and beasts, only one thing by one. Even the impurities of these worlds will not be carried, and the twilight is like a snowflake that has been spreading flat on the surface of the water. ”
Li Shuishan still doesn't understand, this so-called world.
"Senior, let's talk to me about this outlet!" The face of the senior of the plum tree opened his eyes, and his eyes were also rolled into two branches, becoming a pair of eyes with a large spacing, and the hollow center of the eyes was open. He opened his mouth and said hoarsely:
"This outlet is not the place I told the second elder of the plum blossoms. It's another geographical gap, just what he thinks of as hot springs, the wind brought by the ice on the mountain. But these are all illusions under the barrier. Because they haven't stepped out of this illusion for decades. They just want a piece of my destiny essence, but I have a bad temper and an extremely eccentric personality. I'd rather give you this little friend than give it to them. ”
"Haha. ”
After all, only you can see the mystery of it, and for these two self-proclaimed plum blossom elders, it is like climbing to the sky. ”
