Qingmei came over and said: "I heard from Jiong Sheng that there is a kind of red chain snake here. The meat is delicious and rich in spiritual energy. If you eat it, your teeth will turn black."
Lu Cheng said: "No matter how spiritual energy you have, you can't eat it. Your teeth will turn black and it will be too ugly."
"If you eat 10 snakes, will your skill level increase by one level?"
"How is that possible?"
"Jong Sheng said that it is indeed possible. He just collected more than 500 red chain snakes and put them into a bag."
"What I'm more concerned about is, if you eat a snake, will your teeth turn black?"
"Jiong Sheng said that the Jiu people have a kind of spiritual water that can wash away the black color."
"What kind of spiritual water? Have you asked?"
"I asked, but he didn't say."
"Forget it, let's not eat it for now and wait until the future."
Wu Sheng selected three young men in the Black Teeth Kingdom, collected the tributes, and continued on his way.
We walked north from Black Teeth Country for ten days and arrived at a magical place.
"In the great wilderness, there is a mountain called Nie Yao Huo Fang. There are buttresses on it with pillars of three hundred miles, and its leaves are like mustard. There is a valley called Wenyuan Valley. There are buttresses on Tang Valley, one is called Fangzhi, the other is Fangzhi.
When they come out, they are all carried in Wu."
"There is a Tang Valley below. There is a hibiscus above the Tang Valley. I bathed in it for ten days. It is north of the Black Teeth. In the water, there is a big tree. It lives on the lower branch for nine days and on the upper branch for one day. The concubine of the Rain Master is in the north. She is a black man with two hands.
Each man holds a snake, with a green snake in his left ear and a red snake in his right ear. One day, ten days north, there is a man with a black body and a human face, and each man holds a turtle."
Lu Cheng saw the legendary Tang Valley and Fusang Tree.
He looked up at the huge hibiscus tree, which was like a wall, rising straight up and out of reach. No matter how hard he opened his eyes, he could never see the top of the tree!
He was shocked in his heart: "How could there be such a tall tree? Could it be the pillar of heaven in this world?"
He lowered his head and looked into the deep canyon. The steam in the canyon was steaming like boiling hot soup.
"Where is the Golden Crow? Is it still on the treetop?"
Because the tree was too tall, Lu Cheng couldn't see the Golden Crow.
At this time, Wu Sheng spoke: "The hibiscus tree blooms once every 30,000 years, and bears fruit once every 30,000 years. The mulberries fall to the ground and are buried in the soil. They will not decay for three thousand years. We will stay here for ten days! Find them for me.
Mulberry! There will be a big reward if you find it! One mulberry will reward you with a thousand jade coins, and three mulberries will be exchanged for one 'Shenglong Pill'!"
Lu Cheng was taken aback and thought: "The reward is heavy enough, which means that the mulberries of the hibiscus tree are extremely valuable. Can it greatly improve one's power? Or is it used to prepare some kind of rare medicine?"
He searched for the knowledge released by the two small trees in his mind, which shrouded the depths of the marrow sea like clouds. It took him a quarter of an hour to find the hibiscus tree.
The roots, root bark, twigs, sap, mulberry leaves, leaf sap, and mulberries of the hibiscus tree can all be used for medicinal purposes. Even the parasites growing on its branches can be used as medicine. It can be said that the whole body is full of treasures. p>
Lu Cheng also found some incomplete formulas for elixirs in his mind. For example, the 'Lingwu Pill' taken by spirit witches uses the mulberries of hibiscus wood as the main medicine.
But how to find hibiscus mulberries? If they were easy to find, they would have been found long ago. How could they be kept until now?
Lu Cheng used Zhanzhan Qi Technique, but no traces could be seen.
The qi-watching technique is only the basic spell of the great witch. As a spiritual witch, Wu Zong should be proficient in this kind of magic. If the qi-watching technique was easy to use, Wu Zhong would have done it himself.
Many young men and warriors, as well as the girls, began to move around, looking for mulberries.
Some people began to dig into the ground with swords, hoping to dig three feet into the ground and find the mulberries.
Qingmei walked over quietly and asked: "Brother, let me help you."
Lu Cheng said: "Wait a moment, let me think about it." He was still searching for the information in his mind. The information was entangled with each other, as if shrouded in a layer of fog. He wanted to dig out the information he needed.
After a while, someone shouted loudly: "Haha, I dug it!" Everyone turned to look and saw a warrior holding a mulberry as big as a fist in his hand. It was black and shiny, and it looked like the sun was shining on it.
Mo Yu enters!
Lu Cheng glanced from a few feet away, his eyes were stimulated by the reflection of the ink jade, and suddenly the clouds in his mind dispersed! He found a key piece of information: "The fruit of the hibiscus, the divine object will be obscured by itself, and when the golden crow flies, it will fade away."
The ink is slightly purple."
Such a simple sentence means that only when the Golden Crow flies up can you see the faint purple-black energy.
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "I can't even see the Golden Crow, how can I know when it will fly?"
He looked up at the towering tree and said to Qingmei: "This tree is too tall! If a mulberry falls and the wind blows, it will blow at least dozens of miles! If we go farther, we may be able to find something." There are too many people under the tree. After many digs, the chance of finding them is low; in the low-lying areas in the distance, there may be more opportunities...
Lu Cheng led Qingmei to a small hill several hundred feet away, and stood on the hill looking around.
After a while, he said to Qingmei: "When will an ordinary mulberry tree bear fruit?"
Qingmei replied: "It's midsummer?"
Lu Cheng asked again: "In midsummer, from which direction does the wind usually blow?"
"South. Or southeast?"
"Then let's go to the north or northwest to search. Look there is a valley a few miles to the north. Let's walk over and have a look."
They walked a small circle around the big tree with a diameter of seven or eight miles, and then walked north for five or six miles, and came to a valley. This valley was under the shadow of the big tree, and the light seemed a little dim. Especially, this valley
The time has come
In the afternoon, as it approaches dusk, the light becomes darker and darker.
Lu Cheng said: "Forget it today, rest early, and get up early tomorrow to search! By the way, can you get up early?"
Qingmei smiled and said: "Brother, I get up before dawn every day. Our Qingqiu mentality is to absorb the first ray of sunlight."
"Well, you can watch for me to see if there are any golden crows flying in the morning!"
"Yes! I see it almost every day!"
"How could it be?"
"Because Qingqiu Country is not far from here, I practiced Qigong in the morning and absorbed the first ray of sunlight. When I raised my head, I could see the Golden Crow flying by!"

"What does the Golden Crow look like?"
"It's just a golden crow, flying high in the sky, and in less than half a cup of tea, it's full of fire and turns into the sun!"
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "The Golden Crow turned into the sun. This is just a legend. Could it be true in this world of Shan Hai Jing?"
He said to Qingmei: "Whether we can find the mulberry depends on the time it takes for the Golden Crow to fly up half the stick of incense!"
"Brother, do you have any way to find it?"
"Not necessarily, I just have some ideas. I'll know tomorrow."
Lu Cheng took out two wolf skins, handed one to Qingmei, and said, "It's already early autumn, the night is cool, so wrap up in a wolf skin and sleep!"
Qingmei was delighted: "Brother, you are determined."
Lu Cheng had only tanned two wolf skins and one tiger skin before. The tiger skin was left at home and he was reluctant to take it out, and the wolf leather belt was kept by his side to keep out the cold.
The wolf skin is three meters long. When wrapped around the body, it can be used as a sleeping bag.
Qingmei said in surprise: "Brother, this skin is so soft! I have never seen such a soft wolf skin before!"
Lu Cheng smiled faintly without explaining.
Modern tanning technology is much better than ancient times. Wolf skin is treated with softeners to make it more comfortable.
He planned to get some more tiger skins next. He didn't need to hunt them himself. Everywhere he went, he could see Yi tribesmen carrying various skins and wanted to exchange them with merchants. All he had to do was get jade coins.
You can buy tiger skins, one tiger skin only costs fifteen jade coins, and wolf skins are very cheap, one jade coin can buy three.
Lu Cheng said: "If you can't sleep, tell me about Qingqiu Kingdom. Why do all your sisters have similar looks?"
"We have a secret cave in Qingqiu Country. There are several stone statues carved from white jade inside. It is said that they are what our ancestors looked like back then. Those ancestors were all nine-tailed foxes. The statues left behind can inspire blood inheritance. So our fox clan
After three hundred years of cultivation, when the girl transformed into a human form, her appearance was somewhat similar to that of a god."
"Do those statues have names?"
"Yes, I know three names, Jiao, Da and Xi."
"Why is there only one word?"
"In the early years, the fox emperors all had only one name. If I become a nine-tailed fox, I will take the character 'plum' as my emperor's name."
"Haha, you have a big heart."
"Brother, I'm joking."
"Qingmei, are your ancestors still alive?"
"It should still be alive. The nine-tailed fox will not die so easily."
"Since you are alive, why don't you come out to protect Qingqiu Country?"
Qingmei shook her head: "I don't know, I just heard from the old man that the place where our ancestors live is too far away from Qingqiu Kingdom. Maybe they climbed up the trees to reach the sky."
Lu Cheng asked: "Do you know where Jianmu is?"
Qingmei said: "I heard that in Diji, there are hills of emperors and a big tree that reaches the sky. Those great emperors have all gone to heaven. Only their altars are left in the world."
"Hey, you know a lot of things."
"Brother, you are laughing at me again. Our Qingqiu country is an ancient country with a long history. Many stories have been passed down from generation to generation. I have been practicing for more than three hundred years and have heard many stories in my ignorance. Some of them are clearly remembered, and some have been forgotten."<
/p>
Lu Cheng suddenly asked: "Does Qingqiu Kingdom have writing?"
"There are runes, but I know very few, no more than 500 in total."
"That's right, do other fox girls also recognize runes?"
"Most of them are illiterate. My grandmother is the 'fox witch' in the clan. She knows more than 8,000 runes."
"Haha, I didn't expect there to be 'witches' in Qingqiu Country."
"Brother, you underestimate our fox clan. The ancestors of the nine-tailed foxes all master tens of thousands of runes. There are many yellowed animal skin scriptures in our cave. Unfortunately, there is a lack of spiritual witches in the clan. There are very few
Someone can identify those scriptures. Because of this, the king gave us to the young human race to be maids and concubines, hoping that we would have good luck and learn the runes."
Lu Cheng smiled slightly and said: "When you have free time, if you are willing to learn, I will teach you the runes."
Qingmei was already lying down, but when she heard "Gulu" she got up and said in surprise: "Really? Brother, do you know runes?"
"Well. You are lucky if you can follow me."
"Brother, let me tell you the truth. When you arrived at Qingqiu Kingdom, the king held a banquet for you. My grandmother was watching from the side. She took a liking to you at first sight and said that you have a clear energy and a bright future.
, I rushed forward to serve you."
"Oh, that's it. I can only say that your grandma has a vision!"
The two talked for a while, then sat quietly and practiced Qigong, absorbing the moonlight._&
