Chapter 107: The Road Meets Chi Sansuo and Kills the Tree Spirit Monster Again
[Sorry, I'm late for the update today!] The main reason is that there is a problem with the computer's wireless network card, and it has been tossed for a long time. The new week is coming soon, this is the last week of the school captain's signing of the new book list, unfortunately it has not been on the list, friends, use collections, recommended votes and rewards to cheer up, and rush the list together!]
At the moment, the environment around them is also quite quiet, and the air is fresh.
The two of them stand on the top of a small peak, the surrounding scenery is in full view, in front of a deep valley, which is full of green trees, surrounded by the towering mountains, but there is a small stream under the peak, there has been a loud noise, standing in such a beautiful place, it really makes people feel refreshed and happy, and there is a feeling spontaneously.
No wonder the ancients once said: The benevolent man enjoys the mountain, the wise man enjoys the water, and the land with beautiful mountains and rivers often produces sages and sages. It wasn't until he heard Yu Huai'an's voice that Cheng Yunfan let out an "oh" and asked, "Have you ever encountered a tree monster before?"
"Of course, after crossing the river, you can meet it further in, but there are spirits like snakes and rats in the depths of this forest. ”
Cheng Yunfan was looking at the deep forest not far away, and suddenly said in surprise: "Senior brother, do you see if there is a figure there?"
Yu Huai'an's real cultivation is not as high as Cheng Yunfan, so he naturally didn't pay attention, and when he heard Cheng Yunfan say, he let go of his divine sense, and sure enough, he saw a person walking around not far away, it was an old man, with a long white beard, wearing a red robe, and an old man's dragon bell, although the old man didn't see them, but he was walking towards the top of the mountain.
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both showed a trace of suspicion, this deep mountain and old forest, far away from the village under the mountain, has approached the place where the spirits infest, and there is such an old person.
"Senior brother, what do you say this old man is doing, could it be that he is coming at us?" Cheng Yunfan asked first.
"Well, let's meditate and rest here, and wait for the old man to come up, and then we can do our thoughts. Yu Huai'an said, so he found a platform, simply laid a few tricks, cleaned up the surroundings, and meditated. Cheng Yunfan saw Yu Huai'an sitting down, and he also meditated in a similar way.
As soon as the two of them entered the deep mountains, they met people, which is not surprising.
After waiting for half a moment, the old man reached the top of the mountain, and the two of them didn't open their eyes, but their divine senses sensed each other's movements all the time.
When the old man reached the top of the mountain, he seemed to be taken aback when he saw that there were people on this quiet platform, but nowadays the wind of cultivating truth is prevalent, and even the ordinary people in the larger towns know some of the great sects of the Immortal Sect, so the old man was not afraid, but Shi Li spoke first: "The two are the children of the Immortal Sect from afar?"
Only then did the two of them see the old man's face clearly, he was tall and burly, and his face was wrinkled, but it was not ugly, but there was a kind of imprint like the rings of time. And he climbed such a high mountain, but he did not show his tiredness. The beard is gray and red in the face, which is very strange, quite like a hidden master.
Seeing the old man saluting, the two also returned the salute. Yu Huai'an, as a senior brother, spoke first: "Exactly, our senior brother is a disciple of the Sanyang Sect of Southern Chu, who went out to practice, and after passing here, he saw the beautiful scenery and stopped for a while. Dare to ask my husband if he can live in this mountain?"
The old man nodded, as if he saw their doubts, and said: "The little old man's surname is Chi, his name is Sang, and he has lived in seclusion here for more than 70 years, and he lives in Sangling, which is not far from here. ”
Hearing the old man say that his name was Chisang, Cheng Yunfan was a little surprised, this name was also very simple.
"Ah, rudeness, it turns out that the old gentleman is a Qing monk. Yu Huai'an replied.
In the past few years, in order to collect elixirs that can help him cultivate, he has traveled through many blessed lands and famous mountains and rivers, and he knows that there are many hidden laymen in some places, and they can't invest in cultivating immortals for various reasons, or they don't have spiritual roots and immortals, so they find some quiet places to live a life without fighting with the world, and become laymen or ascetics, which is very ancient cultivation. Although these people are not immortal cultivators, they usually learn some health preservation techniques, meditation methods, plus these famous mountains and rivers have meager aura, and most of them are long-lived.
Not only are these laymen familiar with the surroundings of their place, but they are often helpful to monks passing by. There are even occasional immortal cultivators who have obtained some strange things from some hermits. Therefore, even monks, when they meet these reclusive laymen, they are all very polite, or even meet those who are destined, and can give them a point or two, so these monks are very welcome when they meet immortal cultivators. And there is no stake between the two.
The old man named Chisang said: "The two immortal elders are here, why don't you go to the place where I live to rest, how about it?"
The two looked at each other and nodded.
If you want to collect dragon blood ginseng, wouldn't it be good to be able to ask some information from this old mouth.
Immediately, Yu Huai'an stepped on the flying sword, took the old man behind him, and walked with Cheng Yunfan to the Sangling that the old man said, all the way through the low altitude, but he did not meet the spirits, but think about it, the old man is a hermit, how dare to live in the place where the spirits come and go.
In a blink of an eye, I went to the mulberry ridge, and sure enough, I saw countless mulberry trees, but at this time, it was just entering the middle of spring, and the trees were full of cyan mulberries, which was very beautiful.
After a few people landed, the old man saw that the two of them had pinched the magic trick slightly, and put away the flying sword with a flash of light, with a lot of envy in his eyes.
"The two immortal elders come with me. As he spoke, the old man walked forward, shuttling among the mulberry trees, and in a few moments, he came to a huge mulberry tree. Seeing that this mulberry tree looked extremely strange, the two of them were surprised in their eyes. It turns out that the diameter of the mulberry tree of the root of this old tree is dozens of meters large, the roots of the tree are exposed to a large part of the outside, there are many bumps on the trunk, the tree hole is actually rotten hollow, although the branches are sensitive, but the leaves on it are actually a lot of yellowing at this time, the most peculiar thing is that the old man lives in the trunk.
Walking into the tree hole, there was quite a lot of space inside, and the three of them just sat down. The old man packed up some unknown fresh fruits, and said: "These fruits are picked by me nearby, the name is red fruit, the two immortals may wish to taste it, it is very delicious, and it is often eaten, and it has the effect of longevity." ”
Yu Huai'an and Cheng Yunfan are also very curious, there is such a strange fruit in the middle of spring.
After tasting the fruit and inquiring about the situation here. The two thanked the old man, drove the flying sword to the west along the Sangling, passed the edge of the Sangling, the mountain ridge was steep, and the two of them went to the Dahuan Valley before collecting the flying sword, Yu Huai'an said: "Senior brother, this is where we are coming, there are not only giant trees coiled inside, but also many spirits, be careful, the last time I came, I only traveled a few miles, not only did I not see the dragon's blood ginseng, but also almost fell here." ”
The basin in front of you is as Yu Huai'an said, it is full of towering giant trees, some are even dozens of zhang tall, only some sparse places, occasionally sunlight penetrates in, perhaps because the sun has not been seen for a long time, there is a pile of thick deciduous branches and other things on the ground, which have long been rotten, and the smell of rancid and fresh leaves is mixed together, forming a strange taste.
The two of them were careful in their own hands, and Cheng Yunfan slapped three low-level vajra talismans on his body, forming a tight shield and covering himself inside.
Yu Huai'an silently recited the mantra, and the same blue light flashed in his chest, and the blue light seemed to be alive, turning into two streams and flowing to the upper and lower bodies respectively, and then disappeared into the invisible, forming a looming protective cover on the outside of Cheng Yunfan's body. This should be a medium-grade talisman, Cheng Yunfan thought to himself.
Walked for a few miles, maybe it was too cautious, and there were no monsters appeared, maybe no one had been here for a long time, there were a lot of ordinary herbs growing in it, but most of them were useless, but they also collected a few ordinary herbs such as silver needle grass and saffron, saffron is the top medicine in the mortal world, and silver needles are an auxiliary herb used in the Qi Gathering Pill, and the value is not great.
Under a giant tree, a purple tobacco was found, which was a good harvest, and it was a three-leaf purple tobacco, which seemed to be nearly a hundred years old. Purple tobacco has a wide range of uses, many primary pills will be used as excipients, the value of the three leaves is already very high, the five leaves and seven leaves are not common, the minimum of the five leaves is more than three hundred years, and the minimum of the nine leaves is more than a thousand years, the mainland is basically extinct.
The two discussed, except for the dragon blood ginseng, whoever else collected it would store it for the time being, and then divide it in half when it was over.
While walking, suddenly a large number of staggered branches of the bowl tree blocked the way forward, Yu Huai'an exclaimed: "Senior brother be careful, these trees are at least hundreds of years old, and some are thousands of years old, among which even low-level spirits have been formed, be careful." ”
As he spoke, he slapped out a palm-sized spherical magic weapon, threw it forward, and said "go" in his mouth, only to see the red ball in the air emitting a black light and flying forward, when approaching the tree, suddenly one into two, two into four, four into eight, turned into virtual and real eight red balls, shot in different directions, only one of these red balls is an entity, and the other are all phantoms.
When those red balls shot over the winding vines, they all seemed to have eyes, and they automatically avoided the thick branches, but Cheng Yunfan could see that the phantoms conjured up by the red balls were all lethal. The red ball flew dozens of feet away, and sure enough, a strange sound was heard, and a branch was hit by one of the red balls, and a puff of smoke came out, and the branch seemed to have been greatly injured, and shrank to the ground with "huhulala", and in a blink of an eye, the excavation technique disappeared.
Cheng Yunfan immediately used the Golden Crow Breaking Illusion Technique and looked towards the ground where the branches turned into spirits had disappeared. Sure enough, a few meters underground, the branch of the spirit quickly shrank dozens of feet away.
"Senior brother, I found it, the spirit is there. After Cheng Yunfan finished speaking, he drank "go" in his mouth, and the Chixiao Sword flew out, turning into a red light, shooting dozens of zhang away, hitting a giant tree several zhang thick, a miserable roar came out of nowhere, and a lot of pale cyan sap flowed out, and the giant tree dried up like a drained grapefruit.
"Senior brother, while this spiritual liquid has not dissipated, quickly write and collect it, these are the essence of Mu Yi, although it is weak, but it is refined into an elixir, and it is also effective for cultivation. Yu Huai'an took the lead in collecting as he spoke.
