Chapter 204 There is something strange about this sycamore tree!
This kid, wouldn’t he pour pesticide on himself if he disagrees?
Although it has become the climate and has been blessed by nature, it does not mean that it is immune to all poisons. Some herbicides and the like can still cause considerable harm to it.
However, soon, he discovered something was wrong.
As the juice penetrated into the soil, just contacting these liquids instantly made his roots tremble like a conditioned reflex.
Cool.
Just like on a hot summer day, someone brings you a glass of delicious iced plum juice.
It’s like a bitterly cold winter when someone brings you a bowl of hot mutton soup.
It’s so cool.
Almost subconsciously, his roots twisted and quickly absorbed the half bottle of liquid.
Waves of magical power were quickly delivered to every part of its body.
After being exposed to the sun for an afternoon, the originally wilted leaves quickly became green and plump.
The pain on its body where it was struck by lightning was unbearable, but under the nourishment of this magical energy, it actually felt cool, the pain was reduced a lot, and it even felt comfortable. .
There is no doubt that the injury is being repaired.
However, this energy was quickly exhausted by its huge body.
After a while, the physical pain came back again.
“Hiss!”
From extremely comfortable to extremely unhappy, in just a moment, the sycamore tree took a breath of cool air.
"Okay, Mr. Wu, since you're not interested, I'll leave first."
Chen Yang picked up the bottle, turned around and left.
"Don't."
The Wutong tree hurriedly called out, "Why are we walking? Boy, what was that you just gave me to drink?"
Chen Yang stopped and looked back. Xiang Wutong tree shook the bottle in his hand, "What do you mean? Didn't I say that I knew that Mr. Wu was injured by the thunder, so I asked someone to find the elixir for me? You can understand it as a kind of life essence." , It’s especially effective for you spiritual plants, but if you’re not interested, Mr. Wu, forget it, just forget it.”
“No,”
I’ve tasted it. How could the sycamore tree let Chen Yang go like this? Its leaves were trembling with excitement, "Boy, uh no, little brother, what did you say your name was? Chen Yang, right? Little brother Chen Yang, I'm right You are very interested in this elixir..."
The old voice was somewhat incoherent.
“You are really interested?”
“You are really interested, please stop teasing me, old man. It was my fault before. I mistook my kindness for a donkey’s liver and lungs. You sir, don’t argue with me. Give me the thing quickly, I am almost going crazy from the pain..."
You know that no spiritual plant can resist the temptation of [Plant Growth Essence].
Chen Yang didn't care about him. He came back to the tree and poured the remaining half of the bottle of liquid under the tree.
"Woo!"
The sycamore tree groaned softly, as if it was about to take off.
The leaves were shaking and the roots seemed to be dancing lightly.
The large area of charred blackness on its body that was struck by lightning slowly fell off, and fresh and tender bark grew out of the place where it fell off.
It is a recovery that is completely visible to the naked eye.
After about five or six minutes, this process stopped.
The injuries on its body were relatively large, and the medicine's limited power could not take care of them all. However, by the time the medicine was exhausted, one-third of it had been repaired.
"Is there more, some more!" the sycamore tree shouted hurriedly.
"No rush."
Chen Yang said slowly and calmly, "If you eat too much at once, your body will not be able to digest it. Take your time first. How do you feel now?"
"Much more comfortable than before, little brother, I can digest it, just come here."
The sycamore tree was impatient.
Huang Geshu reminded Chen Yang that this sycamore tree has a very weird temper. It wants to beg for itself now, so it is humble. Once it is fed, Chen Yang cannot guarantee that it will still behave like it is now. Such a great attitude.
Chen Yang would not find a place to cry if he fell out with Wu Qing.
Investment requires a return. If I can’t see a return, how can I dare to continue investing?
"Don't worry, Mr. Wu, I still have this kind of thing. You need to digest it first. Let's chat for a while and I'll fill it in for you later."
"There are so many cutscenes."
Wutong The tree didn't know what he was thinking, and immediately spat, "You want to know something from me, right?"
"Old Wu is really wise." Chen Yang praised.
“Stop flattering me.”
The Wutong tree said, "Actually, I had an encounter with the Huang Ge God two days ago, and it mentioned you to me, and I also know your purpose of coming."
"Oh?"
Chen Yang was slightly surprised. Zha, "So you know everything?"
"No, I don't know!"
"What?"
"For example, if you want to know about the situation in the underground palace, I don't know."
Before Chen Yang even asked, the rest of his words were blocked by the sycamore tree.
The air solidified slightly for a few seconds.
Chen Yang said, "Mr. Wu, you have been here on Jianfeng Mountain for at least five hundred years. You should be the clearest about the situation on Jianfeng Mountain. That underground palace should not exist. For more than two hundred years, I don’t believe you when you say you don’t know anything.”
“It’s up to you.”
The sycamore tree shook its leaves, "That underground palace has existed for more than two hundred years..."
At this point, he paused.
Seemingly seeing Chen Yang looking at him with a strange look, he shook the leaves and immediately changed his words, "I mean, I really don't know."
It’s really hard to hide the truth.
Just now it was clearly talking on its own and was about to start talking.
"If Mr. Wu knows anything, please tell me everything." Chen Yang became serious at this moment, "As far as I know, there are a lot of evil things hidden in the underground palace. If they are not eliminated, they will probably be destroyed in the future. It will lead to a big disaster..."
"Hey."
The sycamore tree sighed, "They are hiding in the underground palace, and they are not causing trouble now, so why bother to provoke them!"
Chen Yang's eyes moved slightly, "Mr. Wu really understands them. They can stay safe. Of course I won't provoke them. However, you are wrong to say that they have not caused any harm. As far as I know "A few years ago, there was a Polygonum multiflorum plant that escaped from the underground palace and went to Qishan to cause trouble, hurting many living beings..."
At this point, he paused and asked again Said, "Mr. Huang should have told you about this, right?"
The sycamore tree shook its branches again. He was silent for a long time, seeming to be hesitating, "Boy, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just for your sake. The situation in the underground palace is really complicated, and the evil things that exist inside are not all the same. There are only two. Even the old man Jin Ming doesn’t dare to go too deep. If it were you, you are not even in the spiritual realm. If you go in, you can only die. "
Is it for my own good if you dare to love me?
Chen Yang said, "I just wanted to understand the situation, and I didn't say I wanted to go in. Mr. Wu, look at me coming all the way, you can't let me go back empty-handed, right? "
"Hey."
Wutongshu sighed longly, "Well, if you can solve the mess left by that old man Jin Ming, I can consider telling him. The situation in your underground palace.”
"Huh?"
Chen Yang raised his eyebrows, "What kind of mess?"
Wutongshu said, "This is what the old man from Long Deng asked you to do."
Chen Yang was startled when he heard this.
“You are saying that the temple has been harassed recently because of Master Jin Ming?”
"Yes."
The roots of the sycamore tree moved again, as if changing to a more comfortable position, "This old monk, some time ago, felt that his time was running out, so after saying goodbye to me, A man ran to the underground palace."
"I wanted to fight one last time and completely solve the hidden dangers in the underground palace..."
"If nothing else, this old monk. He can indeed be regarded as an eminent monk. He has forgotten his body for the sake of the Dharma. He has stayed at Bamian Mountain for half his life and has hardly left a step..."
"It's a pity that his luck is a bit bad. This operation failed before it even started. Not only did it fail to eliminate the hidden danger, but it also caused a lot of trouble..."
"He didn't even reach the underground palace. When he reached the Red Creek Valley, he was blocked by a group of bats in the Yellow Ox Cave."
"The old monk was old after all. After a fight, no one Get a favor..."
"The old monk was in a hurry to go to the underground palace, and he didn't know which tendon was wrong. He wanted to do the same thing as his ancestors, cutting meat to feed the eagle. He discussed with the bat king and took the initiative to let the bat The king sucks blood and wants to influence the blood bat king, don’t you think it’s ridiculous?”
“It’s true that the older he gets, the more naive he becomes. Could it be that he thinks that the bat can be cleansed by the blood of his eminent monk? Lost his soul?"
"The result is conceivable. Although the Bat King was saved by luck in the end, he himself was contaminated, poisoned, and escaped in embarrassment."
< br>
"After he came back, he locked himself in a Zen room, without water or rice, for about half a month. He told Long Deng and others some things, and then he passed away."
...
"Ah, this..."
Chen Yang was a little shocked for a moment. Monk Jin Ming actually died like this.
You are over a hundred years old and you still go to the underground palace. What are you doing?
Monk Jin Ming is considered an eminent monk after all, so he can't be so irrational, right?
Or is it that when a person is about to die, his mind becomes a little wandering?
"So, the bat swarm harassed Jianfeng Temple because Master Jin Ming killed the bat king?" This is understandable, but Chen Yang was still a little confused, "I heard from the monks in the temple that besides the bat swarm , and there are also crows coming to join in the fun, so what’s going on?”
“It’s not just the crows, all the animals in the nearby mountains and forests that have some spiritual awareness are coming. Join in the fun.”
The sycamore tree shook its leaves, as if a little tired, "Fortunately, I'm still here. My presence makes them feel afraid, so they just wander around the temple and don't dare to come in."
Chen Yang held his chin and thought for a while, "Logically speaking, since the Bat King is dead, the bat group should disperse, or there should be a new king. There is no reason to insist on avenging the old king..."
How can beasts have so much friendship?
His intuition told him that this group of bats, which had been harassing the temple for such a long time, was probably not as simple as the Wutong tree said.
I am afraid there is another hidden secret.
"Mr. Wu, if this is just what you said, it shouldn't be difficult to resolve this matter, right?" Chen Yang asked.
The Bat King is dead, are these bats still so difficult to deal with?
"Haha."
The Wutong tree smiled, "After Jin Ming died, Long Deng and others cremated him, burned out two relics, one was sent back to Baoguo Temple for worship, and the other One remains and is enshrined in the side hall next to the Puxian Hall, so I’m thinking that most of these things came for this relic.”
“Relic?”
Chen Yang was a little stunned.
Wutong said, "Jin Ming is a master in the spiritual realm. His spiritual cultivation has already participated in creation. It is not unusual to condense one or two relics. If he can be given another ten or twenty years to enter creation, Environment, it shouldn’t be a problem, but it’s a pity that your human lifespan is really short..."
Speaking of this, Wutong felt very sorry.
In the past, Jin Ming was the only person with whom he could communicate in the monastery, and the two of them were considered old friends.
"The relics contain huge spiritual power. If these beasts that already have spiritual awareness can get them, it is very likely to help them achieve climate and give birth to spirituality..."
"For them, this is an opportunity!"
......
"Xiaoyang!"
While one person and one tree were chatting, they saw someone from a distance. Hear Liu Henghu’s voice.
Before the voice fell, the burly figure had already appeared in the backyard.
"Brother Tiger!"
"Could it be that you can really communicate with him?"
Liu Henghu looked up at the sycamore tree in front of him, reached out and touched the tree, as if he was examining it. What.
“Let’s simply communicate!”
Chen Yang didn’t shy away from it. For Liu Henghu, this was not an unbelievable thing.
Liu Henghu nodded slightly. To him, it was indeed not surprising.
In the Panshan industry, it is well known that the existence of spiritual realms can communicate with spiritual beasts.
The root cause is actually mental power.
When the body, energy, and blood are strong to a certain level, they will feed back into the mental power and promote the improvement of the mental power.
Although Chen Yang has not reached the spiritual realm, he has a strong body. A strong body stimulates the improvement of mental power. It is very likely that this guy's mental power is also stronger than ordinary people.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable to be able to communicate with spiritual plants.
“What did we talk about?” Liu Henghu asked.
His eyes were always on the sycamore tree, with unabashed judgment.
He came to Jianfeng Temple this time for an important purpose, actually for this tree.
This tree has been created and cannot be treated as an ordinary spiritual plant. Whether it is a good seed or an evil seed is very important.
If it is an evil seed, it must be eradicated as soon as possible.
Chen Yang briefly explained to Liu Henghu the content of the chat he had just had with Wutong Tree.
After Liu Henghu heard this, his expression was serious, but he didn’t say much. He reached out and patted Chen Yang on the shoulder, “Let’s go eat. After the meal is over, we can chat slowly!”
< br>The two of them left side by side.
“Hey, kid, don’t leave, give me your things before you leave!”
The leaves of the sycamore tree began to tremble.
“What did it say?”
Liu Henghu looked back and saw that the leaf suddenly stopped moving again.
“Say goodbye to us!”
“Oh, quite polite!”
...
——
In the dining hall, Qin Zhou is already here, and half the bowl of rice has been finished.
“Brother Tiger!”
Chen Yang started chatting, “If this matter is caused by the relic in the Buddhist hall, we should solve this matter as well. Isn’t it difficult? Can’t we just send this relic to Baoguo Temple as an offering?”
"What relic?" Qinzhou raised his head, his eyes full of confusion.
It feels like I missed a lot of the plot while sleeping.
The two of them did not give him an explanation.
Everything started because of the relics, and it can end because of the relics.
Sending the relic away is the simplest, most direct and most effective method.
Everything is gone, what are these ghosts and snake gods doing here?
Liu Henghu didn’t speak, he just ate by himself.
"Brother Tiger?"
Chen Yang shouted again, thinking he was a little distracted.
Liu Henghu then said, "Xiaoyang, do you believe whatever it says?"
"What?" Chen Yang was startled.
Liu Henghu said, "Deception is not the exclusive property of humans. Spiritual plants, spiritual beasts, and all things with intelligence can deceive people. Sometimes, many things cannot be taken at face value..."
His words made Chen Yang's heart thump.
What does it mean?
He is saying that the sycamore tree is lying to himself?
At this time, Liu Henghu said, "Have you ever thought that maybe the root of these strange things is this phoenix tree?"
Seeing that he was serious, Chen Yang couldn't help but feel tight in his heart, "This sycamore tree has a long In Jianfeng Temple, I have been living with Master Jin Ming day and night for hundreds of years. If there was a problem with it, Master Jin Ming would have got rid of it long ago. Why do you keep it until now? "
Not really. He didn't believe in Liu Henghu, but he did believe in Liu Henghu's character.
The reason why Chen Yang has no doubts about the sycamore tree is, firstly, because of the yellow kudzu tree. This sycamore tree is a close friend of the yellow kudzu tree, so the quality of the tree should be good.
Secondly, as mentioned just now, with the existence of Monk Jin Ming, there should be no possibility of this sycamore growing crookedly.
"After dinner, I'll show you something later!"
Liu Henghu didn't explain anything and just started eating.
……
After dinner, in the meditation room.
Liu Henghu took out a plastic box the size of a lunch box from under his pillow, placed it on the table and opened it.
Chen Yang leaned over.
There is a fruit inside the box.
A little smaller than a table tennis ball, round, green, and rough. At first glance, it looks a bit like a lychee and a bit like a chestnut.
Sycamore fruit.
Chen Yang had just seen a lot of this kind of fruit on the sycamore tree.
Chen Yang was a little puzzled. Is there anything wrong with this fruit?
Liu Henghu took out the sycamore fruit. The shell of the fruit had been opened and a kernel was taken out.
Dark hard shell.
This nut has been split into two.
Liu Henghu opened it directly and displayed it in front of Chen Yang.
The kernel of the fruit is not white as imagined, but red.
The middle of the red kernel was already rotten, like a puddle of bad blood with an indescribable fishy smell.
Chen Yang frowned slightly, and he could see that inside the rotten pulp, there was a maggot-like worm, lying quietly, dead.
It's all white, you can't tell the head from the tail, and it looks a little disgusting.
“This is the fruit of the sycamore tree in the backyard?” Chen Yang was a little unbelievable.
Liu Henghu nodded, "Monk Longdeng said it was left by Master Jin Ming..."
Chen Yang raised his eyebrows, "In the morning, Monk Longdeng said he wanted to show you, is this it?"
