The feeling when you touch it with your fingertips is cold and greasy.
Chen Yuan had never touched a snake in his two lives, especially one that was so big and mature now. Seeing that this big snake could understand him, he no longer regarded the snake as a beast, but as a human being.
"You were born in nature, grew up in nature, hid in the grass and trees in the mountains, and suddenly one day gained spiritual awareness. This is what heaven and earth have given you."
Chen Yuan touched the silver-white scales, took back his hands and put them behind his back, "The practice of Taoism does not lie in cultivation, but in walking. Only by traveling a thousand miles can you have enlightenment, and only by feeling in your heart can you see the path under your feet.
Where to go."
White Snake stopped vomiting at this time, tilted his head, and his cold eyes vaguely revealed some thoughts as he spoke simple and easy-to-understand words.
‘Hiss~his~’
"The creatures in the mountains can also be compared to ordinary people in the world. The farmers who cultivated the fields wielded countless hoes, or one day, when the hoe fell, they had an enlightenment and doubled their harvests; the knights who acted chivalrously upheld the justice in their hearts.
Traveling tens of thousands of miles, there is no telling where one day my sword skills will be transcendent and I will step into the door of spiritual practice; a scholar who studies hard in a cold window will write about the awe in his heart for many years. This is the so-called Tao, which is invisible and omnipresent!"
People of later generations are well-informed, so it is not difficult to say these words. Chen Yuan quickly organized his words in his mind, and suddenly thought of the evil words said by the scholar named Hu who was traveling with him that day.
He couldn't help but smile and continued: "There are many charming people in the mountains who yearn for people. Human beings are born with spiritual wisdom. If they transform into a human body and break the shackles of practice, they can go further on the path of practice. Now I will use the technique of enlightenment.
, but you have to pick it up."
After saying that, Chen Yuan took two steps back, faced the white snake, and pinched out a magic formula, and a ray of blue light flew into the opponent's head. This method can make stones blossom, make dead trees spring, and naturally also help beasts gain wisdom.
Coupled with Chen Yuan's words just now, countless thoughts were flying in the big snake's mind. It was like the memories of seeing ordinary snakes before it had spiritual consciousness, all emerged one by one, some were good, some were bad, and some were.
There is good and evil, and it is extremely chaotic.
The big snake felt furious and restless in its heart, and it quickly coiled up, spitting out messages frantically, and stared blankly ahead with its cold eyes.
"Why don't you practice in the cave? When you reach the bottleneck, you can go to Lingxian Temple in Luodu, the mortal world, to ask me for a seal!"
The big snake has fallen into trouble and confusion. As long as the confusion is split open, the path of spiritual cultivation will be unobstructed. If you encounter bottlenecks again, you need to ask others to break the shackles.
Chen Yuan no longer paid attention to the white snake behind him, and focused his attention on the ancient pillar. The book said that the mountain collapsed and the wood came out. It can be seen that it grew in the mountain, and its roots did not know how deep it was.
"It's impossible to uproot it. Cutting off the pillar is an act of banditry."
Looking at this ancient pillar, Chen Yuan thought for a long time. He spread his sleeves and bowed: "Chen Yuan, a mortal monk, came here to seek fate. Will you be willing to come with me to see the prosperity of the world and walk along the road."
As soon as the words fell.
The pillar body trembled slightly, and the lower part connected to the mountain rose up from the ground. The large and small roots quickly shrank and actually retracted the pillar body.
"Everything has spirituality. It seems that you are also bored staying in the mountains."
Chen Yuan was naturally happy to see that the spiritual tree was intentional. As he spoke, the ancient pillar separated from the mountain and stood in front of him like a tree holding up the sky. Unfortunately, the wooden pillar itself would not grow or grow on its own like Sun Dasheng's wishful golden cudgel.
Yuan didn't have this kind of magic, so he had to measure the diameter of the corridor and rely on the softness of the surface of the pillar to barely pass through the hole.
After finally reaching the outside, the sky was gradually becoming dark, and a ray of morning sun was shining through the cloud gap in the east. The ancient pillars were bathed in the sun, as if they were trembling slightly with excitement, and a layer of golden veins appeared on the surface.
This ancient tree has the qualities of being invulnerable to fire and water, and being invulnerable to thunder and lightning. If parts of it could be taken without damaging its body, the wood sculpture itself would be much stronger.
Chen Yuan suppressed the excitement in his heart, clasped his hands around the pillar, and carried the weight with his magic power, and rushed directly to the bottom of the cliff, and then... there was a loud bang, Chen Yuan hugged the ancient pillar and knocked down seven or eight big trees. He was excited.
Under the pressure, he forgot about the weight of the column.
Fortunately, the surface of Wu Guzhu was soft, and Chen Yuan was not seriously injured when he fell heavily. He only felt that his internal organs were jolted violently. In a moment, the master from the ruined temple heard the noise and ran over in a hurry.
Seeing the apprentice crawling on the ground holding a pillar, his face showed seriousness: "Apprentice, we don't like this. If you really want to, I will find you a wife..."
"It's nothing... Master, don't think about it."
Chen Yuan got up from the ground, straightened out his robes, and used magic power to lift the pillar on the ground. As he walked, he told his master about the above matter. As for what the old man thought, he couldn't control it.
Back at the ruined temple, Lao Niu was still looking behind his master to see if the big snake was following him, or whether there was something like a demon bead in his master's hand. There was nothing but a big wooden stick, which made him a little disappointed.
'Such a big snake, it can be said to be a great tonic, but it is a pity...'
Then Chen Yuan came up and knocked on his forehead with one hand. He seemed to know what Lao Niu was thinking. He carried the giant tree and walked aside. He also said: "As you practice, you can kill, but you don't want to kill indiscriminately or indiscriminately."
, greedy for killing, otherwise it is not cultivation, it is a disaster."
The habit of preaching in the cave had not changed yet, and the tone was like this when he opened his mouth. Instead, Lao Niu was overjoyed, thinking that he could hear some great words. He swung his tail excitedly, raised his ears and was ready to listen, but what he heard was:
"What are you still doing? Leave immediately. Someone will come to disturb you later."
Old Newton suddenly became sluggish, yelled "moo" and slowly left.
The sky gradually brightens, and the three roosters sing, resounding throughout the villages below the mountain.
A large group of men, carrying poles on their shoulders and hatchets in their hands, headed up the mountain noisily.
Several of them were the herb collectors who escaped down the mountain last night. One of them had his arm bandaged and hanging on his chest, and his face had many bruises and open wounds.
"There is really a big snake in the mountain. Look at these wounds. They were left when fighting the big snake."
"It was too dark at the time to see clearly, but the snake should be seven or eight feet tall. By the way, there is also a man staying overnight in the temple. Let's go there quickly. If we can still catch up, we have to dig a hole for him.
Buried."
The big snake is scary, but it is already daytime and there are so many young people walking along the way, so it is not that scary.
"We're almost there, we're almost there, everyone, be careful!"
Going up the mountain forest, everyone came across the dilapidated temple of yesterday. The dilapidated building was overgrown with grass. However, there were no traces of the man and the ox cart from last night in front of the temple. There was no sign of a fight inside or outside the temple.
This made a group of villagers look at the herb collectors with regret and contempt. They felt that they were timid and feared that they might have misjudged the medicine at night. After a few words, they looked around and then went down to the foot of the mountain in disappointment.
As for the bullock cart that had previously stopped in front of the temple, it now appeared behind a hill two miles away. The back of the hill faced the sun, so it was difficult for wild beasts to turn into monsters. It was a place where people could carve and refine magic weapons with peace of mind.
Chen Yuan swept away the fallen leaves, branches and rocks on the ground, built a simple thatched cottage, used the carriage as a niche, and erected ancient pillars in the middle. Following the treasure refining technique taught by Fei He, he set up a magic circle and laid out the
The five elements of yin and yang come out.
Amidst the annoying chirping of cicadas, the master yawned faintly, the old cow chewed the grass, Chen Yuan sat cross-legged in front of the formation, looking at the spiritual tree, and a bunch of puppets stood around and looked nervous.
