Chapter 44: Swallowing the Pearls and Spitting the Moon
There are strange talks of the ancients, and there are dragons on the sea, swallowing pearls, such as playing with the bright moon. This kind of worship represents the full moon, and even this Teng snake genus, although it is not a dragon, will inevitably love its mellow beauty of pearls and jade, and swallow endlessly. At this time, the 'Silver Moon Snake' was hidden under the starry sky, and regarded this rare 'Huaimeng Fruit' as a glorious pearl, constantly swallowing and cherishing, looking at the strange python raising its head and tail, revealing a satisfied look. It seems to have gotten the most beautiful thing in this world.
Watching this strange snake swallow a pearl and make jade, this mellow 'Huaimeng Fruit' continues to squirt and suck down, and it seems to be full of the rhythm of life with each siphon of it. Lu Yang, who was watching intently from the hidden place on the side, couldn't help but be amazed, at this time, the strange scene of this python mirage spitting beads was completely taken into his eyes, and in his heart, he couldn't help but have a different understanding.
Seeing that this strange python cherished this pearl fruit so much that it couldn't stop talking, Lu Yang's thoughts also wandered back to the past. In the haze, I realized something that I hadn't thought of before. I remember that when he was very young, he sat alone on a secluded hill and saw the moonlight for the first time. At that time, he saw the silver moonlight falling on the forest mountain like a jade plate, and he jumped up excitedly, as if he saw the existence of a god. He ran into the distance, trying to catch up with the lonely moonlight hanging in the sky.
No matter how long he ran resolutely, he would not catch up with the moonlight. And the moonlight quietly climbed on the young man's immature shoulders and walked with him all the way.
He spent countless nights with the bright moon on his pillow, but when he looked at the moonlight, he could only feel his own experience and release the sorrow that lingered in his heart. How many times, chanting poetry to the moon, indulging in wine, since then, he has not longed for this round of bright full moon as he did when he was naïve, nor has he kept the excitement he felt when he looked at the moonlight for the first time.
Time is like an arrow, and time is like a shuttle. When a person goes away in the flood of time and dust, he will grow, but on the contrary, he will lose something, that is, the yearning and reverence for the world that exists in everyone's heart.
The dragon snake that spits pearls, its love for the pearl is overflowing. However, in the course of human growth, why should we not be as good as the 'pearl' we have obtained? It's just that we have left too much as we first saw it, and as time goes by and we get older, we no longer cherish what we have gotten and we will not be satisfied with a pearl. But what is it that has covered the dust?
I have walked through too many dusty alleys, and I have also walked through a lot of splendid prosperity. As a result, they have forgotten their hearts, and many people are working hard for their dreams, but they have forgotten the beginning. I just went in one direction, but I didn't know that my heart gradually changed. It will become intriguing and intriguing. In the end, he became denied his relatives and sank into a bottomless quagmire, unable to extricate himself.
Some people, who have become like this since they were very young, are very good at enveloping the children around them, so that these children who are still ignorant have a good impression and obey him. When they grew up, they also broke out of the world in a prosperous world, but they lost a lot of things, and even some people felt that what they did was wrong, and they imitated it, so they went to the same crooked path. Countless people in this world have become like this today. This is the great sorrow of life.
Nothing that comes to the realization at the beginning is wrong. Perhaps, this is the beginning of the way of heaven. Longing for the moonset and sunrise, the bright moonlight will bring people the clearest heart. Lu Yang seemed to see him when he was young, laughing and running in the enchanting moonlight. It wasn't until late at night that he fell asleep.
That he, in his dream, told him now: to stick to your heart, no matter what the world is, you must also have a clear and clear heart, even if no one understands what you do, even if you are bruised all over your body, and finally abandoned by this world, you must always persevere. Stick to your own path and never be swayed by the world.
Even if the way of heaven is ruthless, he has experienced ups and downs in his life. Nor can it erase the old city in my heart.
Whether I am alone or lonely, I will embark on a long journey to find the end that belongs to me.
Lu Yang thought, thought, and comprehended a lot, no one can understand what is buried deep in the heart of this young man in his twenties. But there was something hidden in this young man's heart, and even he couldn't see through it like looking at snow through a window. But he knew that this young man, he would definitely become famous in the world one day, and no matter what it was, it would not be able to stop him from moving forward.
......
When Lu Yang was immersed in his imagination, the huge 'Silver Moon Snake' had already swallowed the pearl fruit that shone with fantastic light into his stomach. Although the Dream Fruit is only the size of a fist, but the pure medicinal power contained in it is like an abyss, after swallowing into the belly of the snake, it quickly dissolves into a liquid medicine scattered in all directions, and the next moment, on its body several feet long, a mist like a rainbow evaporates from its white scales like a frost blade, and its original moon-white body is dyed into a brilliant colorful color in an instant.
Poor 'Silver Moon Snake' didn't know that the medicinal power of the Dream Fruit would be so strong, it hissed loudly, and its huge mouth sprayed a rainbow-colored mist in the wind, which sprinkled down under the moon in the valley, like a rainbow hanging between the mirages, which was a spectacle. And its sinuous and heavy body, with the final loss of intuition, fell into a deep sleep, and hung down in the mist that surrounded it, like a dragon in the water, and fell down the cliff with a bang. It is estimated that if it falls into this bottomless abyss, it will eventually turn into a cloud of dust and sleep in the earth, or it will become an excellent tonic for monsters that happen to pass by, but it is not known at all.
The fear on Lu Yang's face gradually subsided, and the excitement in his shining eyes could not be concealed, with the wisdom that the demon beast did not have, although he consumed a very rare 'Dream Fruit', but he also successfully defeated this powerful 'Silver Moon Snake'. At the last moment, if it weren't for the snake greedy for the pearl fruit, then it would not have lost consciousness and fell into the abyss from the clouds. This is also the fate of Lu Yang, and there is an extraordinary relationship between him and the 'Bronze Ancient Sword'.
Piercing through the colorful mirage that had shrouded the entire cliff, Lu Yang finally stepped on the natural stone platform, the 'Moon Pan Jade Immortal Zhi' was just a stone's throw away, where Lu Yang landed at this time, in the fairy grass like the bright moon glow, the surrounding clouds seemed to be jubilant and joyful, just approaching this strange fairy grass, Lu Yang felt refreshed, in the previous Teng snake around, the tension when falling into the deep valley had dissipated invisibly, only the indescribable excitement made his heart stir.
Observe this fairy grass at close range, but see that its whole body is snow-white and not stained with dust, the top is an umbrella-shaped open moon disk like a beautiful jade carving, there is a bright and clean light on it without stopping the rhythm, the roots below are Mao, as if the fairy cane holds up this round of strange moonlight, the wonder of the creation of the world, is breathtaking.
This rare immortal Zhi Yao grass in 10,000 years, the strange thing is really a fairy product, the spiritual root of heaven and earth. It grows between the high cliffs and heavy fog, as if a god realm immortal once abandoned his staff here and turned into a jade plate immortal root. This grass is sanctified. Restore qi and blood, flesh and bones, and even rejuvenate the soul...... Those relentless hot days can only be refined into sweat, making those poor people who survive in the red dust more hard. But I don't know that this 'Yuepan Jade Xianzhi' is a bright moon with tears, dripping as Yao grass, and it is alone here for thousands of years, and the valley is empty and dusty.
Seeing that Lu Yang came to this stone platform, this Xianzhi seemed to come to life, and in his surprised look, the white jade was also covered with the glow of the flowing moonlight, and it swayed gently, bringing up countless smooth falls. For a while, it was like a bright moon shattering shadows, and the surrounding air floated up the holy brilliance of the Tao like silky wisps, dancing in the wind like butterflies, making people feel like they were in a wonderful dream.
This 'Yuepan Jade Immortal Zhi' has existed for I don't know how many years, it also has a spiritual existence, as a spiritual grass favored by heaven and earth, in the time it has gone through, it has silently absorbed how many star and moon essences, and as a genus of plants and trees, it has cultivated to this day, although it has opened its own spiritual wisdom, however, he can't control himself to leave Dieyun Mountain and take a look at the outside world.
It only feeds on the essence of the stars and moons, and does not need water or soil to survive. This is the same as the countless immortal medicinal materials growing on the cliff of Dieyun Mountain, but the pure energy accumulated in its body can no longer make it accumulate again, and it itself is like a reservoir full of water, which can no longer hold water sources. Therefore, it can only be released in the form of external release, on the one hand, it absorbs the essence of the stars and the moon, and on the other hand, it releases its own energy out of the body through the moon disk at the top.
At this time, Lu Yang was in the aura of energy it released, something strange happened, he could actually sense the excitement of the 'Moon Plate Jade Immortal Zhi' in front of him, although it was silent, but it had the wisdom of no less than that of human beings.
"It's unexpectedly, let me take it away from here?" Lu Yang was a little incredible, this fairy grass could grow to such an extent, between this high cliff, wind, frost, rain and snow, and countless years of accumulation, how difficult it was, it was unimaginable. And it actually wanted to give up the energy it had accumulated for a long time, which made Lu Yang puzzled.
The fairy grass has a spirit, it seems to be able to read Lu Yang's incomprehension, in the 'Moon Disk Jade Immortal Zhi', above the whole body, a soft light blooms, wrapping itself in it, under Lu Yang's stunned gaze, the gorgeous moon disk, actually slowly cracked a gap from it, and then, in it, a delicate light and shadow flew out, surrounding Lu Yang's body, flying and circling, like a spirit of light.
