Ten years later, except for Eunuch Maoju, no one knew where they were now, including Hou Zi.
In the past ten years, he has not flown at all. This attitude is what Mr. Beech appreciates the most; he can guess that the most important reason why the big tree wants to carry them is not to let him know about the wood spirit.
The specific position of the bead.
There was not enough silver here, but he could understand Beech's mood. The Wood Spirit Pearl was the most precious treasure of Beimu Forest and could not be lost.
"Father, where is the fire?" Little Mushroom and Little Tail exclaimed. Although they were still far apart, as wood spirits, they were very sensitive to the element of fire, which is the most inimical to wood among the five elements.
Of course, Eunuch Beech and Hou Zi already knew that the direction they were walking in was the direction of the mountain fire.
Father Beech's deep voice said, "The biggest problem in Beimu Forest is the problem of wildfires. Wildfires occur every year, and even spread without borders. The place I am taking you to now is the center of the raging wildfires.
…”
Hou Zi's heart moved, "Thank you so much, father-in-law."
The purpose of his coming here has already been told to Grandpa Maoju. This old tree probably recognized him as a person during the ten years of contact, so it chose this place for the final test. In fact, it was also a disguised way to reward him.
The Wood Spirit Pearl is right under the fire!
The mysteries of the Five Elements are often so incredible that the place where the fire rages is exactly where the Wood Spirit Pearl stays. If it weren't for Mr. Beech, Hou Zi would not be able to figure it out even if he broke his brain.
He will only look for those places where there are plenty of wood spirits. This is also the intuition of almost all practitioners, but the fact is that wood spirit beads have wisdom that humans cannot imagine.
Is it because we want to suppress wildfires? Or is it because the spring breeze blows again after wildfires? Only by actually walking in can we know.
After climbing over several more hills, we could already vaguely see black fog and thick smoke in front of us, and a strong, choking smell rushed towards us, including the smell of roasted animals.
"Mountain fire is the biggest enemy of Beimu Forest. As long as there is thunder in the sky, I can't help but feel nervous. I don't know where the fallen leaves will be ignited, causing irreparable losses."
"We have lived here for thousands of years, and there has never been a period of time where wildfires have been so frequent and intensified as now. Even if Mu Xingzhu stays here, it will not change it at all."
Amid Father-in-law Beech's nagging, they approached the fire step by step, and stopped a few miles away from the fire. They could not continue any further. Hou Tzu had the pleasure of eating roasted mushrooms as they moved forward.
Hou Zi slowly took a few steps forward, then turned around and said, "Father, actually I can't solve anything by coming here..."
Father Beech's bark wrinkled, "I don't want to ask you to solve anything, I just want to fulfill my promise. Regarding nature, no one can control it, and no one should control it."
Seeing Hou Zi disappearing among the dense trees in front, Father Beech turned around and walked back. Little Mushroom wanted to jump down, but seemed to be stuck and could no longer leave the body of the beech tree.
"Father-in-law, you..."
Maoju walked resolutely, educating the two young people as he walked, "On the way back, I will have a good talk with you about what a chance encounter is and what a taste is... That human being is not an ordinary person. I am not saying that he is not good, but he is
His future is destined to be bumpy. If you want to go with him, you must not only be strong, but also have a good life.
Just regard it as a chance encounter in your life. When it is over, it is over. Don’t miss it, otherwise you may not be a wood spirit and will eventually turn into a piece of sculpture."
...Hou Ting ran forward and stayed on the beech tree for ten years, which made him feel a little numb now.
He hasn't felt the power of the wooden beads here yet, but Beech will not spend ten years just to deceive him.
Just after walking out of Lixu, a scorching wave of heat hit us in front of us, and various small animals fled in panic. At this place, ordinary humans can no longer resist the heat and transpiration, but for practitioners, such ordinary fire is meaningless.
Continuing to walk inside, people have already walked into the fire scene, thick smoke, and smoke, making this place a forbidden area of life.
This is a very large wildfire that has been burning for several months. The only way to extinguish this wildfire now is a heavy rain, a heavy rain.
He never thought about stopping this mountain fire, and neither did Eunuch Beech. They all knew that this was part of the movement of heaven and reincarnation.
Death and rebirth are the same for plants.
He searched in the fire scene and followed his feelings; when the location was fixed on dozens of hills, it was not that difficult to find the approximate location of the Wood Spirit Pearl.
He sat down in the middle of the ashes and quietly felt the faint power of wood. Even in the raging fire, it was still dormant, waiting for the opportunity to be reborn.
He is also waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity for the five elements to interact with each other.
Slowly integrate your perception into the ground and into the root systems of those plants. Some of them still have weak vitality because they are buried under the soil, and are dying as they persevere.
By this time, it is no longer just a matter of wood that can solve the problem, but also includes more important aspects, such as water, soil...
This nature is composed of the five elements. When they complete a reincarnation, the yin and yang of the entire five elements are often at work, not just one element.
Plants only rely on wood, which is one-sided. They also rely heavily on water and soil, and are afraid of metal and fire. They rely on each other and restrain each other in a structure.
The raging wildfires were coming to an end. Within a month, several consecutive light rains prevented the spread of the fires. A month later, the clouds gathered and a heavy rain was brewing.
Hou Ting spread his perception as far as possible. What he needed to do was to determine the direction of the waves of the other four elements when the power of Mu Xing turned from defense to offense.
This was originally an impossible task because the five elements are everywhere; he can do it because he has now mastered the four elements. He is in the center of the wood element and feels the role of the other four elements in the cycle of life and death in Beimu Forest.
The effect...
There was a muffled thunder, heavy rain poured down, and the mountain fires could no longer rage under the downpour. When the rainwater soaked into the ground and moistened the roots that had been in drought for a long time, life showed its tenacity at this moment.
Hou Ting could clearly feel the power of the earth and water elements passing through him. He was very familiar with them, like long-lost friends.
Then, Jin Xing also joined in. Although he was still a bit unfamiliar, there was no barrier.
Something was changing underground in the Beimu Forest. Mu Xing began to take the initiative, and with the help of the other three elements, he drove back the angry Huo Xing.
After several battles, the withdrawal of the fire element had an impact on Beimu Forest. In the battle of the five elements, it is normal to advance and retreat.
Hou Zi raised his head and focused his eyes on the south, which was the direction in which the fire was retreating.
