The flowers and trees below the cliff are lush, the green shade is open to the sky, and the clear light is projected from the mottled shadows of the trees, which has a kind of deep silence.

Ming Qin and Yan Qingwu stepped on the moonlight to examine it carefully, and their divine consciousness stretched out, and they didn't dare to let go of the slightest movement.

After walking hundreds of steps, they suddenly heard a trace of noisy words, the two looked at each other, and couldn't help but be shocked, and they showed their movements and followed the sound.

There is a clearing in the depths of the dense forest, opposite is a steep mountain cliff, a Taoist with a cold expression sits on a high rock, tall and fat, ruddy skin, beard and whisker, Ming Qin looked at it, knew that it was the ancestor of the Pharaoh Gu Changhong, and quickly held Yan Qingwu's palm and pinched it, signaling her not to act rashly.

Yan Qingwu hadn't met Gu Changhong, and he could guess a few points by looking at Ming Qin's expression.

Gu Changhong's eyes opened and closed, and there was an unfathomable sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he exhaled and said: "The two of you have followed me from the Lingxi Cave all the way, what is your intention, why don't you show up and talk to the deity." ”

Ming Qin's heart was slightly sudden, and he said secretly: "Could it be that Gu Changhong has already discovered their line of hiding.

The thought turned, and suddenly saw two figures, one black and one white, falling on the mountain rock not far from Gu Changhong's side, one left and one right, faintly forming a pinching momentum. But it was the male and the silver fox who arrived. The two of them were not familiar with the terrain in the Lingxi Cave, and it was inconvenient to dodge in the cave, so it was inevitable that they would tie their hands and feet, and they could not show the advantage of joining forces to attack. The strange thing is that after Gu Changhong found them, he walked away on his own. The two monsters wanted to track down the whereabouts of the Nine Dragon Bowls, and they followed behind at the moment, to see what tricks Gu Changhong played.

Gu Changhong glanced at the two monsters, couldn't see the number of their paths, and frowned: "I have never met the two of you. You two are chasing after me. Is there something wrong with the deity?"

He thought to himself that for many years, he seemed to be rich and honorable, and he was a lord. There is no shortage of things to do in the expropriation, and it is inevitable that some people will be jealous.

The two monsters looked at each other. Exchanged a look. The male laughed and said, "Ancient ghost, you don't know us, but we can recognize you." Let's open the skylight and say something bright, back then, your master, the Venerable Heavenly Fowl, confused my palace master and stole the Nine Dragons. I have found out that the treasure is now in your hands, and I would like to advise you that if you can return it to its rightful owner, we will not be guilty of the past. If you don't work, hum. The envoy had to take it himself. ”

Gu Changhong's face changed slightly, and his eyes flickered: "You two are from the Wandering Soul Palace?"

"Not bad. The male patted his chest and said proudly: "I am the male dragon, he is the silver fox, and he is the soul envoy of the south." Although you are a junior, you must also know the prestige of our Wandering Soul Palace. Is it that you are equipped with the Nine Dragons, 'the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty'. Don't be greedy and not be greedy, and ruin half a lifetime of cultivation. ”

Gu Changhong's face flushed. He is still sure to deal with the two monsters alone, but behind the two monsters is the powerful Spirit Palace, which is really chilling. His master, the Venerable Master of Heavenly Birds, risked his life to steal the Nine Dragons from the Wandering Soul Palace, but the matter was revealed. was hunted down by the soul envoys of the Quartet, and unfortunately died of hatred.

The Venerable Heavenly Bird was originally a mount cultivator of the Lu Zhudao people, and he obtained his true inheritance. The mana is not under the three generations of disciples Nezha and Lei Zhenzi. Even he was lost in the hands of the Wandering Soul Palace, which shows that this mysterious sect is indeed extremely difficult.

Gu Changhong struggled inwardly for a moment. sighed and said with a wry smile: "It's not a secret." It's not that the old man refuses to hand over the Nine Dragon Bowls, but in fact, this treasure is not in my hands. The two of them didn't know where to get the information, and they really wronged Gu. ”

"Bastard, you are the apprentice of the Venerable Master of the Heavenly Fowl, the old thing of the Heavenly Fowl has been decaying for a long time, the Nine Dragons are not on you, where else can it be?"

The male was furious, in fact, he couldn't be sure that Gu Changhong had won the Nine Dragon Bowls, and he was worried that he would be deceived by him, so he immediately spoke sharply and did not give in.

When Ming Qin and Yan Qingwu heard this, they realized that the two monsters did not know the exact whereabouts of the Nine Dragons, and Gu Changhong refused to admit it, so the two sides had to fight.

"The soul makes it angry. Gu Changhong also knew that it was difficult to win the trust of empty words, so he hurriedly smiled: "Although the Nine Dragons are not in my hands, I know where this treasure is." ”

Ming Qin frowned secretly, in addition to Gu Changhong, there were also two apprentices, Gao Mu Kite and Yin Shutong, but Gao and Yin were unknown, and they were not as many disciples as Gu Changhong, and they were powerful. He didn't want to move Jiangdong away, plant the Nine Dragons on Gao and Yin, and kill people with a knife. The three brothers and sisters have never been harmonious, so it is impossible to do so, but if Jiulongzhan is not on Gao and Yin, it will not be easy to deal with the aftermath.

"Tell me about it. The male snorted slightly, half-convinced.

"I know that the Soul Messenger cannot believe me. But there is no falsehood in Lao Dao's words, and when I explain the reason, the two of them will naturally know the ins and outs. ”

Gu Changhong stroked his long beard with a calm expression, and even Ming and Yan were curious about what amazing secrets he could say.

"If you have something to say, don't sell it. The male looked at the sky, felt impatient, and shouted in a rough voice.

Gu Changhong smiled and said disapprerovingly: "The two of you only know that my master infiltrated the Wandering Soul Palace and stole the Nine Dragon Cups, and in the end, his cultivation was completely destroyed, and his life was not guaranteed. Shizun is not ignorant of the power of the Wandering Soul Palace, he is willing to take a big risk and fall to his head, but there is a reason in the middle. ”

"Why, why?" the male was slightly stunned, for they had not noticed. It's just that the Nine Dragons are the treasure of the demon clan, and the Heavenly Bird Master is bold, and it is not surprising that he wants to take it for himself.

Gu Changhong was smart and clever when he was young, and he was very loved by the Heavenly Fowl Master, and he personally participated in many things, but unfortunately his selfishness was too heavy and his ambition was great, and when the Heavenly Fowl Master died, he refused to hand over the position of head of the family and the Yang Wuxian Sutra to him.

Gu Changhong remembered the past, his face showed a shy look, and he was unaware of the persecution of the male and silver fox, and muttered for a long time before he sighed: "Legend has it that the Nine Dragons contain the vitality of heaven and earth, and have the effect of prolonging life. The master painstakingly stole the Nine Dragon Bowls, naturally in order to cure diseases and save people. ”

"After the Great War, the ancestor Lu Zhudao was a god, he visited the world to find the former site of the death of the Nine Golden Crow Princes and ambushed them. Prevent the overflow of yang energy and harm to the world. There is a way that when ten days come out, the red ground is scorched, and not a single inch of grass grows. It was the East Monarch Dayi who shot down the nine, and the human race was able to survive. Thrive. However, the number of fortunes is fixed, and the ups and downs can be followed. Heaven and earth catastrophe, life cannot be escaped. Decades ago. The heavens are in great war, killing people and wilderness, bleeding and drifting, and the leaders of the six realms have pretended to be yang wu, abusing the world, and the crimes are monstrous. ”

"In the country of Da Mo, there is a self-proclaimed Pure Yang True Immortal, and the reckless new heaven of the Quanzhen Sect Master regards himself as the only one, and even the grass and trees are harmed by it. In the past, Wu Zetian was arrogant. On the high horse. The edict is that the flowers of the Imperial Garden are all open overnight, and the unique peony is not afraid of obscenity, and it is safe. Wu Zetian was ashamed and angry, degraded the peony for thousands of miles, and moved to Luoyang. Mang Xintian's arrogance and ignorance are better than Wu Cao. ”

The ancient tribes mostly used mythical beasts as totems, and the immortal road Changming took flowers as their emblems. Therefore, the countries of the Three Realms choose one more kind of flower and call it the national flower. This is of course easy to choose in the immortal country of small countries and widows and meager products, and there are only 10 million kinds of flowers in mid-summer, and there are no less than 100 kinds of famous ones. It can be difficult to choose one as the emblem.

Originally, the peony had the name of the king of flowers, and once resisted the supreme. Xun has the bearing of a king who would rather bend than bend. However, Zhou Dunyi's "Ai Lian Said" once commented on it, saying, "The peony is also rich and noble." The love of peonies should be carried out by all".

As soon as this argument came out. The peony has become a symbol of wealth and nobility, and the literati are even more praised.

On the contrary, plum blossoms are becoming more and more prominent. has become the object of the literati and bachelors, which is enough to compete with the peony.

Plum blossoms, pine, and bamboo are collectively known as the 'Three Friends of the Cold'. Helan, bamboo, and chrysanthemum are called the 'four gentlemen'. Xiang is known for his proud bones and clear ice, which is slightly better than orchid, chrysanthemum, lotus, and cinnamon.

In the country of incense. Plum blossoms are the only ones that can be as long as the peony.

Mang Xintian likes to be vassally elegant, and the character of the plum blossom is chanted, which is nothing more than the master's own way. Of course, Mang Xintian refused to let go of this opportunity, he imitated Lu Fangweng's fortune operator and wrote a poem, which was very incomprehensible.

According to the general practice of talented and beautiful women, the plum blossom fairy should have something to say when he sees this small word of admiration, Mang Xintian's hands and eyes are all over the sky, and the praise is like a tide, and even if the road is in sight, he will be punished with a slander.

If the plum blossom fairy knows each other, he should recommend himself to the pillow seat, and then the new Tianlong Yan Dayue, not to mention that the national flower is a logical thing even if it is the queen.

There is no vanity under the so-called fame, and the plum blossom fairy has the blue eyes of many literati and scholars, such as Lin Hejing, Jiang Baishi, Lu Fangweng, which are all great talents who are unique and famous for thousands of years.

Just like the statue of the god in the temple, it looks like a clay sculpture and wood carving, how many people bow their heads to him, and naturally have the majesty of the gods.

In fact, Mang Xintian hates the arrogance of plum blossoms in his bones, and his words are numb, and he has nothing to say about the plum blossom's chastity, which is nothing more than saying that she is out of place, withdrawn and untain, so he has not designated plum blossoms as the national flower from beginning to end.

Gong Ding'an's "The Story of the Sick Plum Pavilion" ridiculed this mentality. Many people love plum blossoms and love peonies. It's just a matter of meeting the current and showing style. Their so-called love is only to pull and destroy, but also to satisfy their perverted aesthetics and unspeakable selfish desires.

Mang Xintian held a grudge against the plum blossom who refused to succumb, and said with ulterior motives: "The plum blossom should be beautiful in the curve, and there is no posture in the straightness; it is beautiful in the face, and there is no scenery in the right way; it is beautiful in the sparse, and it is not in the state if it is dense."

Ignorant and reluctant, Qu learned from the world, so Feng Ruolunyin, "cut its right, raise its side, delete its secret, die its childish branches, hoe its straight, and curb its anger". It is called love, but it is actually harmful. The common people lack wisdom, just like pouring water on the ground, driving it to the east and flowing to the east, and driving it to the west to flow to the west, and they have no ability to do it independently. As a result, the plum blossoms in the world have been poisoned and diseased.

Gu Changhong sighed: "When the new sky is reckless, everything that is taboo has been poisoned, although there is not only one kind of plum blossom, and the stubborn and chaste character of plum blossom has been particularly harmed. Shizun saw the demons dancing wildly, and the whole country was full of smoke and miasma. In the long run, plum blossoms are in danger of dying out. Only then was he willing to take a risk, sneaked into the Soul Palace to steal the Nine Dragon Lanterns, and with the help of the Shaoyang Qi in the magic weapon, he helped the Plum Blossom Fairy repair the flower soul and recuperate. ”

Ming Qin listened to him for a long time, and then he realized that the Heavenly Fowl Venerable Master's theft of the Nine Dragon Lamps was actually involved in such a flower seed tragedy. While being indignant at Mang Xintian's perverse behavior, the Venerable Yu Heavenly Bird couldn't help but be in awe.

Even people like Yan Qingwu who have nothing to do with themselves also feel that it is a matter of great trouble to the scenery of the grass and trees, and the reckless Xintian is rebellious and unreasonable, and he has truly abused the world and poisoned the common people.

The two monsters of the fox only cared about the whereabouts of the Nine Dragons, and felt very meaningless about what happened to the plum blossoms, and asked: "After talking for a long time, where is the Nine Dragons?"

Gu Changhong smiled dumbly, and said hesitantly: "I have already made it very clear, why don't you two understand it." The Nine Dragons Zhan was stolen by Shizun to treat the Plum Blossom Fairy, and of course the things were next to the Plum Blossom Fairy. However, she is the flower fairy of the Heavenly Court, and if the two of them want to snatch the Nine Dragon Bowls, it is better to think carefully. ”

Flowers and trees are also animistic species in the Three Realms, and everything that has a spirit will have a cactus in charge. It is rumored that the flower fairy in charge of the flowers of the Three Realms is the flower fairy, and the flower fairy is in charge of each flower species under her command. These flower fairies are all in the variety of flowers, and they are cultivated to adulthood.

Flowers and trees are compared to the self-cultivation without action, many flowers are bright and splendid, thousands of purples and thousands of reds, very pleasing to the eye, but often the flowering period is short, and the day is born and dies. People in the world like to compare famous flowers with beauties, and their faces are fleeting, which is naturally deeply regrettable.

There are two major races of flowers and trees, shrubs and trees, and the lifespan of trees is much longer, and there are relatively many cultivated adults. However, trees are easily cut down by humans and used to make utensils. Zhuangzi was deeply sympathetic to this fate.

All in all, flowers and trees are generally incapable of self-defense, and many of them are eroded by the five insects. He has a low status in the Three Realms, and he doesn't even enter the six realms of reincarnation. There are relatively few cultivators who become adults, and they have a peaceful personality and no quarrel with the world, even if they cultivate the Dao of Adults, they rarely do harm, which should be quite reassuring to the Heavenly Court.

The management of flowers and trees is also relatively simple, except for the flower fairy and various flower fairies, there is no special government division.

However, human beings do have a preference for flowers and trees, and once many flowers are given personality by literati and scholars, they are immediately worth a hundred times the price. Needless to say, peonies and plum blossoms. Orchids are known as the king of incense by Confucius. Chrysanthemums have Tao Yuanliang's deep heart. Begonias have Su Dongpo to cherish.

The literati can not only appreciate the flowers, but also know the habits of the flowers, and take care of them meticulously. Once a spiritual thing gains spiritual vitality, the chances of cultivating to become an adult are greatly improved. Moreover, the flowers and trees also have a unique place, most of the five insects lie in the day and come out at night, and they need to be sheltered and rested in the nest house cave. Flowers and trees can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and the longer the lifespan, the more psychic transformation can be, even not under the general fairy road ghosts.

The more difficult things are, the more often they achieve beyond the ordinary. Because it is difficult for flowers and trees to cultivate humanity, these flower fairies are usually chaste, tenacious, and profound. Besides, there is a heavenly court, and the two monsters have to be worried. (To be continued.) )
