Chapter 198: Descending the Dragon Tree Heart
This thousand-year-old tree heart is about more than a zhang long, as thick as a big bowl, with a round body surface and a texture like jade. But the fracture is a cluster of oblique stubbles, like knives and blades, hard and sharp.
The heart of the tree is fragrant, smell its fragrance lightly, make people think clearly, and it is indeed a strange treasure.
But such a treasure, the green king abandoned this like a shoe, and his heart is really not simple.
Erqing cast a spell to seal the heart of this thousand-year-old tree, stuffed it into the Qiankun bag, and turned to leave.
Although he knew that Lao Shanai was one of the four protagonists of Journey to the West, Erqing saw that the former little monk and the current big monk were eaten by him, but he couldn't bear to ignore it.
That's why I fought with him.
Since even the victim of Qingwang has come to 'intercede' now, Erqing naturally can't continue to 'know what to do'. I can only ignore this demon and go back to the mountain.
It's just that Er Qing still has some wonder in his heart, why did the little monk run to learn the scriptures? Could it be that the little monk is one of the reincarnations of the ninth generation of the old Tang Dynasty?
It is said that Lao Sha eats monks in this quicksand river, is it true that the nine people who learned the scriptures are really the reincarnation of Lao Tang? If so, then Lao Tang is really pitiful, the first nine lives were eaten by Lao Sha, and finally he had to accept him as a disciple, take him to learn the scriptures, and help him achieve positive results!
So, the question is, why does Lao Sha specialize in eating scriptures?
In his last life, when he watched the Journey to the West forum, he saw someone say that Lao Sha was sent by the Jade Emperor to the Journey to the West as an undercover agent. The old pig was sent by Lao Jun to be an undercover agent.
Therefore, when Lao Sha was a monster in the quicksand river, he specialized in eating scriptures.
And when the old pig learns from the experience, he often picks and picks and dismantles the gang.
In this way, it is because there is anger in the heart.
Because, who wants to do such a thing as an undercover agent!
Of course, this kind of statement, Erqing should also be seen as a joke.
After all, if there is really a game between immortals and Buddhas, how can mortals understand the subtleties?
Erqing shook his head and sighed lightly, and returned in the clouds.
I don't know when, the sky dawns, and the sun rises in the east.
Erqing abandoned distractions, crossed his knees in the clouds, and was convinced.
When the sun rose, Er Qing stopped meditating and pulled out the thousand-year-old tree heart.
After thinking about it, Er Qing opened his eyebrows and looked towards the heart of the thousand-year-old tree.
I saw that in the heart of the thousand-year-old tree, in addition to the pure and rich wood essence, there was also a trace of golden light lingering. Erqing estimated that it should be a trace of Buddha light cultivated by King Qing.
So, he carefully stripped those Buddha lights from the heart of the thousand-year-old tree.
He and Da Bai both have some merit on them, but Xiao Qing and Little Fox, as well as Little Finch, don't have that kind of thing. Even if this Buddha light is very faint, it is also a harm to them. Thinking about going west to find the way and seeing the Buddha's light on the sacred mountain, Erqing was afraid.
When he returned to Qingcheng Mirror Lake, it was already the time when the sun was setting in the west. The trace of Buddha light in the heart of the thousand-year-old tree has also been extracted by him and sealed in a jade bottle.
At this time, Da Bai and the little red fox sat on the terrace of the small building in the middle of the lake, sipping fragrant tea lightly, and sat silently opposite each other.
Even the little finches, which are usually idle, hold their wings at this time and stand aside.
It wasn't until Erqing pressed the cloud head and floated over that the little golden finch excitedly lit up her wings and jumped up: "Na, I said that Shijun will be fine! Look, Shijun is back!"
"Brother Erqing, where have you gone, Sister Bai doesn't know how much to worry about you!"
Listening to the little red fox's complaints, Er Qing looked at Da Bai, who was glaring at the little red fox, "When am I worried about him?" I'm just curious, he left in a hurry, what's the matter?"
The little fox sighed and said, "Yes, Brother Erqing, I'm worried about you!"
Erqing smiled and stretched out his hand to rub the little fox's head, and said with a smile: "Don't be naughty!" and then looked at Dabai, "What about Xiaoqing?"
Da Bai glanced at him, shook his head and said, "It's still refining the spiritual energy in the wine." You ......"
Seeing that Da Bai wanted to speak and stopped, Er Qing said: "When I looked up at the starry sky last night and counted the stars, I suddenly felt something, so I calculated it, and found that there was an old man who died in the West. After careful calculation, I realized that it was the little monk and the Tree Demon Green King at the beginning, and I hurried there, but it was too late!"
"The little monk and the Qingwang were killed?" Da Bai couldn't believe it, "Didn't the little monk chant the scriptures in the Qianlin Temple?
Qingwang said that the little monk seemed to want to go to the west to seek the scriptures of all sentient beings, so the Qingwang accompanied him on the road to the west. It's just that at the junction of Nanbu Continent and West Niuhe Continent, I met a demon, and the eight hundred miles of quicksand river are all the territory of the demon leader......"
Erqing told Dabai what he encountered last night, and then took out the thousand-year-old tree heart from the Qiankun bag, and said: "Senior sister didn't say that Qingwang is a 10,000-year-old tree essence, why is this tree heart a thousand-year-old tree heart?"
Da Bai shook his head, thought for a while, and said, "It is rumored that the Dryad Green King almost died when he crossed the Transformation Tribulation. However, no one will care about this kind of rumor, after all, when the demons crossed the transformation tribulation, who didn't almost die? Now it seems that maybe the Qingwang body was destroyed when he crossed the transformation tribulation, but later he grew a new body......
It's not a strange thing that dead wood sprouts in spring!
Da Bai looked at the heart of the tree and said, "I didn't know what the Qingwang body was before, but now I know that it is actually the Dragon Tree." According to some classics, the dragon wood has the effect of clearing the mind and thinking, driving away evil spirits and poison, etc., and its branches can be used to test whether it is poisonous, and it can also be used to drive away poison......"
Dragon Descending Wood?!
Erqing was stunned, if you want to talk about descending dragon wood, Erqing is most familiar with the thing in the 'Yang family general', the Yang family will use this thing to break the Tianmen Array, and the dragon descending wood is used to drive away poison.
It can be said that because of that TV series, this dragon wood was directly mythologized.
He didn't expect that the body of the Green King was actually a dragon descending tree, I don't know if the Venerable Buddha who led him was the Venerable of the Dragon Descent?
Seeing that Er Qing looked too vain, Da Bai didn't bother him.
It wasn't until he came back to his senses that she asked him, "What's wrong with my junior brother?"
Er Qing shook his head and said, "I'm thinking, this dragon descending wood has the effect of clearing the mind and thinking clearly, driving away evil spirits and repelling poison, so it can be completely placed here for everyone's cultivation! As for the wood essence in the heart of this thousand-year-old tree, Senior Sister can refine it and improve its cultivation." ”
Hearing this, Da Bai frowned, shook his head and said, "Senior brother is kind, senior sister understands." However, this is a relic of the old man after all, unlike those demon pills, if I refine it, I will feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, so forget it. If the junior disciple feels that it is wasteful, he can plant it in the medicine garden, and with the vigorous life contained in the heart of this tree, it is unknown whether he will be able to draw new branches one day!"
Erqing couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the tree only has its heart left, can it survive?
