Chapter 21: Heartstone and Dragon Grass

"The younger generation has something unclear, and I hope that the fairy will guide me. In the crowd, a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe and an extraordinary bearing stood up and asked respectfully.

This man was the first to get up and ask questions, and everyone's eyes subconsciously fell on him.

Zhou Cheng found that there were many uniformly dressed people sitting next to this person, those people looked like this middle-aged disciple, and then looking at this person's popularity, he also felt that this person was extraordinary, he dared to be the first to stand up and ask questions, thinking that he also had a very high status among the people, and perhaps he was a figure who had achieved Taoist primordial spirit.

"Fellow Daoists, please speak," said the pothos fairy with a raised hand.

The middle-aged man bowed again, and then slowly spoke: "Now that the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom are pressing the border, how should we and other Daomen disciples deal with ourselves?

As soon as the middle-aged man's question came out, he couldn't help whispering in the field, almost all of the people invited by the Green Pothos Dharma Club were disciples of the Southern Dao Sect, and now that the fall of the Wu Kingdom was imminent, these people were also concerned.

"If today's machine is chaotic, an even greater chaos is coming. Jin dominates the world is the fate of heaven, and besides, the people of the north and the south are of the same origin, so we don't want to get involved in this matter!"

The pothos fairy has gone through several dynastic changes, and it should be indifferent to this. The north and south were originally all hot and yellow blood, the soul of the Han Dynasty, and it was a good thing to unify them.

However, the words of the pothos fairy made everyone unable to sit still, because she also said that a greater troubled world is coming!

"How could it be? Could it be more terrifying than the melee of the princes and the attack of the Three Kingdoms?" some people had already begun to whisper.

At present, Dongwu is about to be destroyed, and Emperor Sima Yan of the Jin Dynasty is also a generation of heroes, once the world is unified, it should get better and better, why does the pothos fairy say that greater troubles are coming?

"Do other Daoists still have questions?" The green pothos fairy seemed unwilling to delve into this issue, and took the initiative to ask, wanting to divert the topic.

But after a long time, there was still silence in the field, who would have the heart to think about anything else at this time?

Even Zhou Cheng thought in his heart, what kind of chaotic times can be called more chaotic than the late Han Dynasty, and if there is really such a terrible chaotic world, how can the people make a living?

"Since there is no more, then let's start asking the heart stone!" The pothos fairy looked around again, and when she saw that no one was asking, she continued to speak.

"Question the heart stone?" Zhou Cheng was puzzled, so he asked Gai Liniang in a low voice.

Judging from the words of the pothos fairy just now, Zhou Cheng estimated that this so-called asking heart stone should be a fixed process, and Gai Liniang should know it.

"The Asking Heart Stone is a natural artifact that can illuminate people's hearts, but its real function is to evaluate the Dao Heart, and if it is favored by the Asking Heart Stone, it means that the Dao Heart is stable and has infinite potential. Historically, the people who have been favored by the Asking Heart Stone at every discipline festival have made great achievements in the future, and there are even a few who have finally achieved the Yuan Shen. Gai Liniang told her eloquently, and she really knew a lot about the Question Stone.

Zhou Cheng was also curious when he heard this, the divine object was a divine object, and it could have such a miraculous effect.

"That's right.... At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Liang was favored by the Question Stone. And every time someone who is favored by the Asking Heart Stone, the pothos fairy will reward a treasure. So many people, in order to gain the favor of the Asking Heart Stone, start doing good deeds or dedicate themselves to enlightenment a few years before the puja. Gai Liniang remembered some rumors about the Questioning Stone again, so she told Zhou Cheng about them.

"Zhang Liang, could it be that this heart stone is actually Huang Shigong? It's just that the world makes Zhang Liang's immortal fate easier to understand?" Zhou Cheng felt as if he had discovered something again.

"Mr. Zhou is really delicate, you guessed it. Gai Liniang smiled and agreed with Zhou Cheng's opinion.

Just when Zhou Cheng and Gai Liniang were talking in a whisper, the pothos fairy flipped over her hands, but it was not a heart stone, but a strange-shaped purple grass appeared in her hand.

Everyone looked at this purple grass curiously, only to see a palm-sized grass, the shape of a real dragon rising, although it was a grass, but when everyone looked at it, it seemed to feel that the grass had life, and there were even bursts of dragon groans in their minds.

"This is the Dragon Grass, and it should be the last one in the world. Let's use it as a reward for the first of the Heart Stones!" The voice of the pothos fairy resounded throughout the audience, saying the name of the dragon grass, and it seemed that this was the last one.

Just when the name of the dragon grass was revealed, many people's eyes showed heat. And Zhou Cheng and Gai Liniang were even more surprised to find that the Qingping Sword Pill that was originally lying quietly on the desk actually moved on its own, and a cyan shadow flew around the Sword Pill, as if trying to break free from the Sword Pill.

Zhou Cheng hurriedly opened his mouth to absorb the sword pill back, but the frog phantom in the mud pill palace still rushed out desperately, as if he was attracted by the dragon grass.

Soon, a fluctuation of consciousness also began to appear in Zhou Cheng's mind, and it turned out to be the frog Jiao who asked Zhou Cheng to ask Zhou Cheng to obtain the dragon grass for it.

Since the frog Jiao was killed everywhere that day, the Jiao soul was separated from the inner dan, and the Jiao soul was as silent as if it was dead.

Originally, Zhou Cheng had also forgotten that there was still this Jiao Soul in the Sword Pill, but now a dragon grass made this Jiao Soul feel like crazy.

Jiao Soul was trapped in the Mud Pill Palace, no matter how Jiao Soul struggled, it couldn't fly out on its own, except for the little abnormal movement at the beginning, only Gai Liniang noticed it, and the others didn't notice Zhou Cheng's abnormality here.

"May I ask the heart stone....." The pothos fairy's voice sounded, as if the heart stone had a life, still using a word of invitation.

As soon as the pothos fairy's voice fell, he saw the treasure light in the belly of the mountain soaring into the sky, and an earthy yellow light rushed straight into the sky, as if to break through the light that shrouded the blessed land. Then, in this pillar of light, a strange stone that was only the size of a fist slowly rose.

Aside from the brilliance of those circulations, the Inquiry Stone itself is actually mediocre.

However, it was this seemingly ordinary stone, after flying out of the mountainside, it automatically flew to the high platform as if it had a spirit, and the Question Stone hovered in the air, and it seemed that it was also sitting in the observer field.

Seeing the heart stone hovering overhead, everyone crossed their knees one after another, and some even recited the Taoist scriptures.

Zhou Cheng saw that everyone in the audience looked pious, maybe they were thinking about something, even Gai Liniang beside him also looked at the Asking Heart Stone, and there seemed to be a thousand thoughts in their expressions.

The Inquiry Stone fluctuates, once it appears in an area, sometimes it will slowly descend, and it is about to fall on someone's head, and when others see this scene, they also show envy.

But the Heartstone is like a naughty child, even if it lands on someone's head, it only blinks before it flies away.

Zhou Cheng didn't deliberately think about anything in his heart, and he didn't even have the idea of attracting the Asking Stone to obtain the Dragon Grass because of Jiao Soul's desire for the Dragon Grass.

In Zhou Cheng's view, that is, if it is a conscience, it must be consistent, what was in the heart in the past, and how it should be now.

For example, Gai Liniang said that some people only started to do good deeds a few years before the Festival, and this kind of behavior has a clear purpose, but it is just self-deception!

Before Zhou Cheng came to the green pothos blessed land, he didn't have any extra thoughts, just wanted to ask for a little knowledge, and now he still maintains a heart, just curiously watching the heart stone change its position in the field.

The Asking Heart Stone flies around, and no matter how hard everyone works, it just doesn't settle down.

In this way, about half a pillar of incense time passed, and Zhou Cheng felt a little bored watching it, so he simply learned from the pothos fairy on the cloud bed, closed his eyes and recuperated.

It seems that the heart stone is also tired of playing, and suddenly stops moving in the air. At this moment, the pothos fairy, who had been closed, slowly opened her eyes, and her gaze fell on the heart stone.

At the moment when the pothos fairy looked at the Inquiry Stone, the Inquiry Stone moved again. This time, it was no longer as casual as before, but suddenly moved, shooting towards the place where Zhou Cheng and Gai Liniang were.

He suddenly felt something shooting at him around his eyes, he suddenly opened his eyes, and subconsciously stretched out his palm to intercept it.

Just when his palm was placed in front of him, the Asking Heart Stone happened to hit Zhou Cheng's palm steadily, and then he subconsciously grasped it with five fingers, and the Asking Heart Stone was grabbed by Zhou Cheng in the palm of his hand.

"Congratulations to this fellow Daoist, the dragon grass is yours....." Before Zhou Cheng could react, the voice of the pothos fairy sounded again, and at the same time, the dragon grass also turned into a streamer and fell on the desk in front of Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng spread his palms a little stunned, opened his five fingers, and then the heart stone turned into a streamer and flew back to the mountainside. Zhou Cheng never thought that he would be favored by the Asking Heart Stone so inexplicably?

But the dragon grass in front of him, which looked like a living thing, and the jubilant Jiao soul in the Mud Pill Palace, all told Zhou Cheng that he had really won the favor of the Asking Heart Stone.

"This fellow Daoist, can you tell me what is going on in the mind of the Daoist Fellow?" The voice of the pothos fairy sounded again, this time directly to Zhou Cheng.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhou Cheng, all with envy and reverence.

Envy is naturally due to the fact that Zhou Cheng was favored by the Asking Stone and thus obtained the Dragon Grass, while reverence is because Zhou Cheng's future achievements are likely to be higher than most of them.

Even Gai Liniang, who was beside Zhou Cheng, looked at Zhou Cheng again, and her gaze was slightly different from before.
