Chapter 17: The Old Stump

Gongliang saw Yuan Pian lying under the ancient pine in the distance through the heavy trees, so he asked, "Roll out, what are you doing over there?"

Yuan Rolling just took a bite, still savoring the lingering fragrance of the golden silk jade dew in his mouth, and when he heard Gongliang's question, he hurriedly stuffed the remaining golden silk jade dew into his mouth, and shouted: "No, I didn't do anything." ”

After saying that, it filled in the soil pulled out by digging the golden silk jade dew and flattened it, and ran to the side with the fat huhu and continued to look for the golden silk jade dew.

Gongliang saw it running around, for fear that something would happen, so he hurriedly walked over with the three sisters of the Yan family.

Mi Gu rode on the dragon mastiff, took out two small golden gourd hammers and held them in his hands, held his head high, and led the way majestically.

Round and rolling followed the fragrance emanating from the ground to find the golden silk and jade dew, and the dragon mastiff named "Fat Huhu" also followed alongside it.

Mastiffs always have unusually sensitive noses.

Fat Huhu is not as fat as round, very flexible, under the leadership of the owner, quickly shuttle under the dragon scale pine, smell here, smell there. Suddenly smelled a familiar aroma, and hurriedly called to the master.

Fat Huhu was engraved by Gongliang with the Yan pattern of spiritual communication, so Yuanbilo knew what it was called, and immediately ran over.

Seeing the owner coming, Fat Huhu immediately reached out his claws and dug up under the roots of the tree.

In an instant, a golden silk jade dew like golden silk jade was revealed.

Yuan Bilan happily grabbed it, patted his fat head and said, "Huhu, you are awesome, I'll give you a big bun to eat later." Now let's go find the golden silk and jade dew, and don't let Gongliang find out. ”

Fat Huhu was encouraged by his master, and his tail was wagging his tail, and he was about to break it.

"Mastiff, rush!"

Mi Gu was not happy to lead the way, so he commanded the dragon mastiff to run quickly into the forest.

Gongliang had already asked Kui Long and the Heavenly Chicken to pay attention to the surrounding movements, and with the protection of the Miao Dao Immortal Sect, he was not afraid of any danger in the forest, so he let her and Yuan Roll run around in the forest, while he and the three sisters of the Yan family slowly followed behind.

The ancient pine forest in front of you is so dense that no matter which way you look, you can't see it far.

Looking up, the needles at the tips of the ancient pines are connected together, swaying for thousands of miles, driving the faint white clouds on the forest sea to and fro.

And the thick branches like the giant pillars of the sky look so vigorous and upright, like a peerless swordsman, standing proudly, only holding a sword to break through the sky, which makes people respectful.

As he walked, Gongliang looked at the stout Honka.

The old bark of the ancient pine tree that has endured the vicissitudes of time is like dragon scales, which is so eye-catching.

"Hmm..."

Suddenly, he remembered a legend. It is rumored that in the war between heaven and earth, a real dragon fell to the earth, and an ancient pine bathed in dragon blood and gained a bit of creation. Although it is still a tree body, its bloodline is extraordinary, and it has entered the ranks of xenomorphic spirit plants.

Later, everyone named this tree "dragon scale pine"

It is said that after the transformation of the dragon scale pine, the sap can be used to refine the elixir, the body of the tree can be the firewood for alchemy, and the smoke it burns to make the dragon scale smoke ink is a treasure that the Confucian scholars of the Qingyang Academy seek but cannot get;

That's a good thing!

Gongliang turned his head and looked around, and found that the tallest dragon scale ancient pine here was hundreds of meters, and the largest was surrounded by dozens of people.

It's a pity that there are people from the Miao Dao Immortal Sect staring at him nearby, and it is not good for him to put these dragon scale ancient pines in, so as not to let people discover the existence of the space and cause trouble.

Since you can't dig the big ones, you can only find the small ones.

Therefore, when he walked forward, as long as he encountered dragon scale pine seedlings, he would dig into the fruit space and plant them.

After digging for a while, I feel that it is not a matter of digging small saplings all the time, and I don't know when these things will grow into usable trees.

So, he began to figure out how to dig up adult trees. That kind of towering tree must not be dug up, because it is too tall, and with his status as a desolate person, he can't buy such a big storage bag to hold things, and it will simply expose the existence of fruit space.

Since you can't dig up the tall dragon scale pine, you might as well dig some low old tree stumps, so that no one will doubt it.

With this in mind, he wandered around the forest, looking for the old stump of the dragon-scale ancient pine.

Yuan Rolling is also working hard to find golden silk and jade dew everywhere with fat, planning to go back to exchange spirit snake fetuses with Mi Gu to eat.

The little guy in Migu was the most proud, running around the forest on a dragon mastiff, snoring and drinking, as if he was the owner of the forest.

In the dragon scale ancient pine forest, there are no miscellaneous trees and shrubs, only some grass and flowers that grow tenaciously out of the ground.

In the woodland, there are pine needles that have fallen over the years, and the thick pine needles are laid layer after layer, which are soft and elastic to step on, and they are very comfortable.

Perhaps it has gone through too many years, and the dragon scale ancient tree is overgrown with moss, lichens, stone olives, and ferns such as stone wei and white hair.

Some of these plants that are epiphytic on the dragon scale pine are dead, but they are still attached to the trees, with a stiff white, dead green and decadent color, like a longevity spot on the old man's body, which makes the already old dragon scale ancient pine look even more desolate from the underworld.

Gongliang took the three sisters of the Yan family to wander around the forest, and looked for old tree stumps in the dragon scale ancient pine forest through the shared vision of the chickens.

Tiangong lived up to his wishes, searched for a long time, and finally let him find such a place in the chicken's field of vision, and hurriedly took the three sisters of the Yan family to that place.

It didn't take long for me to come to the place, and a forest of dragon-scale ancient pines that had been burned by a mountain fire appeared in front of me.

Among them, some dragon-scale ancient pines have been burned to ashes, some have been burned to charcoal, but they are still standing, and some are the aftermath of the catastrophe, and they are full of life, from the head of the immortal stump.

But if you look closely, the burning of the dragon scale ancient pine forest does not look like a mountain fire.

Because the wildfire will not only rage in this area of about two miles, it should sweep through the entire mountain forest with the wind.

Looking at it again, Gongliang felt that this dragon scale ancient pine forest was a bit like it had been struck by a thunderbolt.

Thunder generally occurs in spring, thunder and thunder are often accompanied by thunderstorms, it is estimated that the thunder will cause mountain fires, and then be extinguished by rain, which will only appear This is just a scene of burning a mountain forest.

Gongliang walked to the old stump of the dragon scale ancient pine that had been struck by the thunder from the sky, burned by the thunder fire, and re-reborn.

On the edge of the mottled old stumps, there are branches of ancient pines growing next to them, which are full of wild interest. If it is slightly trimmed, it is undoubtedly a good bonsai.

It is much easier to dig up such an old stump than a tall dragon scale pine, and it will not be suspected.

Gongliang took out a shovel and dug it up.

Above the pine forest, a young Taoist soldier saw him digging a tree, and couldn't help but wonder: "What is this kid digging trees for?"

"You don't care what he's digging for, just do your own thing. An older Taoist soldier said.

The young Taoist soldier didn't ask any more questions when he heard this, but he muttered in his heart: It is said that the desolate people have the ability to hunt for treasures, is this tree a treasure?
