Chapter 3 The Wreck of the Golden Crow (Wen Xiang 3/5)
Like a sea dragon soaring over a green mountain,
The long song is like ice and the clouds are like smoke.
Clear and flowing fireflies and windy willows,
Xuyu Yingluo Dew Star Pass...
The elegant and neat fonts are carved on the white jade that is as moist as mutton fat. It is full of warmth when you rub it carefully.
Guang Chengzi sat on the Suyu futon, looking at the mountain tops in the distance with blurred eyes, countless scenes from the past passing through his mind.
There are many disciples of the Chan Cult who have defected. In addition to a few golden immortals on the surface, there are also nearly a thousand third-generation disciples.
The substitute method of the Ten Jue Formation was exposed as Jiang Ziya divided the gods.
The disciples were saddened by the death and were frightened by Yuanshi Tianzun's ruthlessness, so they left this graceful saint's monastery one after another.
Today, Kunlun Mountain is clean and elegant, exotic flowers and plants are more lush, and spiritual power is so strong that it flows freely.
The remaining Golden Immortals, apart from those who fully supported Guangchengzi, were mediocre and incompetent people, as well as Xianyun Yehe who did not like to fight for power and gain.
After Yuanshi Tianzun was fined and grounded, Guangchengzi's reputation in Chanjiao reached its peak.
But in such a prosperous world, he didn't have the slightest sense of accomplishment, and he always felt a little lonely.
At this time, a thin figure walked down the mountain.
"Brother, Junior Brother Manjusri cut off his body and cut off the last connection with Chanjiao." Yuding bowed and saluted, and said softly.
"I know." Guangchengzi sighed, with ripples in his heart.
He looked at the jade tripod and asked, "Junior brother, Manjusri is so decisive in doing things, even giving up his body to cut off contact. How come his resentment towards us is so deep?"
Yuding smiled slightly and said gently: "Brother, you have to keep going. Wenshu is like this, Cihang is like this, and Randeng is like this. They just find their own direction."
……
Three days later.
Pearly colored glaze circulates around the Qingyun Palace lantern, like countless crystal spider silks shining brightly.
The Eight Treasures Merit Pool is magnificent and dreamy, the water surface is as calm as jade, and the merits and virtues turn into a pond filled with lotus flowers competing to bloom.
The pure glass water body exudes a flawless and clear halo under the sunlight.
Manjusri, with his bare feet and wearing a purple longevity robe, is suspended above the Eight Treasures Merit Pool.
His skin was soft and smooth, and looked particularly white when reflected in the pool water, but the vicissitudes of life in his eyes could not be concealed.
The breeze blows, and the wind chimes jingle, and the aura floats leisurely like tulle, like a dream.
"Congratulations, Venerable Manjushri." Bodhi gently twisted his whisk, said with a kind face and a warm voice.
He is the good corpse of Saint Zhunti. He is shown to all living beings as an old man with a beautiful beard. His temperament is peaceful and elegant, his eyes are dazzling green, and the vegetation is full of vitality as he turns.
"Thank you, senior, for your protection." Manjusri said softly, taking the scroll representing the western realm from Bodhi's hand.
Wow.
The scroll opened, revealing the mountains, rivers, sun and moon in the west.
The Gengdu Mountain Range is extremely wide, covering the entire southwest. Only through this treasure can we see the full picture of this ashram.
The virtual image of its landform is like a sesame pie, with countless peaks scattered like sesame seeds.
Bodhi waved his hand gently, and the shadow of the Gengdu Mountains in the scroll flew out and hovered in front of Manjusri.
"Manjusri, there are many flowers, plants and trees in this dojo, and more than 70% of them are the products of the poisonous path. The main ones are White Bone Grass, Soul-drifting Tree, Ancient Moon Grass, and Ghost-Swallowing Flower, accompanied by Seven-Star Suzhu and Blue Sea Pool Heart Grass.
Tassels, pearls, etc."
"As for the vicious beasts, the blood path and the poison path each account for 40%. There are also a large number of ancient beasts. They are bloodthirsty and cruel, and have cruel and cruel temperaments."
Bodhi introduced the situation of the Gongdu Mountains very patiently, reaching out and tapping on the shadow of the mountains to reveal the real situation inside.
The White Bone Grass is as whole as milk, the Soul-Dangling Tree is shaped like a hanged ghost, its branches hang freely and sway in the wind, and it can hunt all living creatures within a hundred meters, and the Ancient Moon Grass is as warm and bright as the Mid-Autumn Moon.
Blooming in every corner of the mountains.
Manjusri listened very carefully, nodded constantly, and kept all Bodhi's words in mind.
Don't underestimate these poisonous flowers, plants and trees, they are excellent resources for spiritual practice.
Although it is rarely used in the West, if it is sold to Jifu and Beiju Luzhou, it will be snapped up and the price will skyrocket.
Bone Grass and Ghost-Swallowing Flower are necessary materials for refining the Bone Summoning Token. This treasure is mediocre but has great room for growth. The Bone Summoning Lady relied on the Bone Summoning Token to fight against Ao Xing in the Vientiane Forest.
Seven-star Suzhu is the food of the white-striped iron-swallowing beast. The Soul-drifting Tree has the ability to gather ghosts. It is planted in large quantities in the underworld at the Gate of Hell. Tassel Pearl can crush it and add it to the elixir to enhance the spiritual essence and maintain its activity. These are all hidden treasures.
Manjusri narrowed his eyes thoughtfully and suddenly asked.
"Senior, it is said that a saint can explore every corner of the Three Realms with just a slight movement of his mind. I wonder how many ferocious beasts there are in the Gengdu Mountains, and how many types there are. Is there any record of them?"
Hearing this, Bodhi showed a surprised look on his face, and looked at Manjusri with a slight twinkle in his eye: "As far as I know, there are a huge number of ferocious beasts here. There are more than 3.97 million ignorant ones, and there are six thousand species.
Eight hundred species, comparable to about 630,000 in the realm of spirits, most of which are birds. There are less than 80,000 in the realm of earthly immortals, entrenched in the center. There are about 3,000 in the realm of heavenly immortals, each occupying the top of the mountain. There are more than 60 true immortals.
They all have powerful abilities, and Lingxian has a bloody dragon-tooth mire crocodile."
Repairing the world is not as simple as imagined.
The saints walk on behalf of heaven and possess supreme power, but they cannot instantly heal the scars of the West. They can only work on it step by step.
This is like planting flowers and plants, scattering the seeds in the soil, which can activate the magic to make them suddenly take root and sprout, but what is consumed is the foundation of the soil and the aura wandering between heaven and earth.
The harvest is several times greater.
It can only be considered complete if it is carefully cultivated to allow it to grow normally and the fallen leaves return to their roots.
Zhunti can bring the West back to life with a snap of his fingers, restoring the cracked land, broken mountains, and withered rivers to their original state, but it consumes the heritage of the West and the merits of all sentient beings. If you calculate it carefully, you will owe more to heaven.<
/p>
Only by working step by step can we truly repair the world.
There are many ferocious beasts in the Gengdu Mountains, but the number decreases as you go up, especially when you reach the spirit fairy realm, where only the Dragon Tooth Swamp Crocodile remains.
This is the most normal situation.
As the waves wash over the sand, the growth of the ferocious beasts is also full of blood. Behind the increase in strength is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Only by walking away from death and killing can you truly be qualified to find the truth of the great road.
"The ferocious beasts are just like us cultivators. The weird and earthly immortals can be seen everywhere, and the number is particularly huge. The realm of heavenly immortals seems a bit rare. As for the realm of true immortals, spiritual immortals, and even golden immortals, they are all the best.
”
"The weak eat the strong, the fittest survive, the reality is always cruel."
Manjusri looked at the scene that passed quickly in front of him and calculated the value of these ferocious beasts in his mind.
Somewhat unsatisfactory.
First of all, the number of ferocious beasts is too small. The number of four million seems particularly huge, but they are all small in size such as birds and insects. When Manjusri went to the Vientiane Forest, he passed through the Gengdu Mountains, so he naturally knew how sparse it was.<
/p>
Secondly, the variety is not refined, and they are all ordinary goods, especially the poisonous beasts are the cheapest.
Manjusri does not want to lead many creatures to kill the Gengdu Mountains like a bandit.
If you want to maximize your profits, you must know how to exploit both sides and sell the beasts to those creatures in need.
You must learn to cash out in order to get huge profits.
"The arena is not about fighting and killing, you have to learn how to be human and worldly." Manjusri murmured in his heart.
His gaze did not stop in the west, but also extended to various areas of ancient times through countless channels.
The previous cooperation route with Beiminghai can be reopened because of this. There is an extreme lack of resources for wooden roads, earth roads and stone roads, which can be regarded as a very good market.
Moreover, with the treasure in hand, the underworld will definitely not be able to hold back its authority. When Fan Wujiu returns to share information, a certain Yama will definitely come to negotiate, and he will just open up two channels between the underworld and the sea of blood. p>
In addition, the native creatures of the West are also excellent buyers.
"This is the benefit of owning a dojo. You can constantly pick up treasures from heaven and earth at will, and you can also convert them into needed resources through various channels, so as to improve your realm as quickly as possible."
"But these are good prospects. Before that, this mess must be solved first, otherwise we can only stand still and be unable to make any progress."
Bodhi noticed that his expression kept changing, thinking that Manjusri was backing off, so he quickly continued to introduce other resources.
"Plowing and studying the plain is not all trouble. It is extremely rich in water resources. There are two rivers running from east to west, and there are countless lakes and streams. There are also tens of thousands of aquatic species living in it, including five-flowered clams, green swimming crabs, ice turtles, spring water shrimps, and colorful clouds.
The three largest groups of jellyfish are the sake snail, the gall octopus, and the big-bellied seahorse. They are all waterway beasts, each numbering as many as 250,000 to 60,000, and a total of one million."
Manjusri listened quietly, nodding slightly from time to time, keeping these numbers in mind.
Everyone knows that he practices water and ice paths, but they don’t know that he has forgotten them long ago.
But this does not prevent Manjusri from developing water resources.
Compared with the forest valleys, mountains and swamps on land, the water scene is pure, and the reproduction rate of the herds and spiritual plants is relatively stable, which is suitable for routes with long and thin water.
What's more, among the eight tribes of Buddhism, there are dragons who are in charge, and we can invite a few dragons to stay temporarily in the future.
In this way, dragon energy will penetrate into the water, subtly improving the aquatic heritage.
"Actually, the resources of the Gengdu Mountains were extremely rich at first, at least more than ten times what they are now. However, during the Lich Calamity, a Golden Crow fell here, and his body turned into the rising true fire of the sun and burned for thousands of years. Gengdu
Millions of creatures in the mountains were killed and injured, and the remaining true meaning of the flame has not been extinguished. Some time ago, the Golden Lotus of Merit lost its third level, which caused the flow of Western luck and caused the earth to tumble, causing a large number of casualties. The corpses were not cleaned up for a long time and turned into a rotting swamp.
It has polluted many water sources."
Bodhi sighed and shook his head. When he talked about the disaster, his eyes were full of helplessness.
The world is selfless and merciless, even ferocious beasts cannot decide their own destiny.
Bodhi waved his whisk, and the shadow suddenly turned into two steaming clouds of smoke, revealing two tortured areas.
In the smoke, there are the remains of a golden crow.
The shining true fire of the sun burns as brilliantly as fireworks. The earth is burned and cracked, and is full of wide and deep cracks. Smoke slowly floats out from inside, accompanied by the silently burning flames, and the silent scene.
It looks extremely scary.
In the smoke next to it, there is a huge swamp area, filled with filthy toxins that are steaming wantonly and spreading towards the surroundings. Wherever it goes, the water sources are polluted, and there are a large number of corpses floating on it.
Manjusri looked at the miserable scene in front of him, and his heart sank.
The two areas involve a very wide area, occupying at least 30% of the boundary of the Gengdu Mountain Range. Such losses are too serious.
"Two problems must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise the flames and swamps will continue to spread, causing incalculable losses. However, the creatures who went to repair the world this time are all below the realm of true immortals, so it is indeed a bit difficult to deal with." Manjusri murmured softly.
.
Bodhi swept the dust, and the smoke changed again, turning into a vibrant jungle.
It is a vibrant scene, with countless green vines twisting around and blooming with delicate red flowers.
"This is the biggest trouble - Heart-Eating Zhulan."
Heart-eating Zhulan is an ancient spiritual plant. Its reproduction method is the same as that of mother-child ghosts. Its hunting range is extremely wide and its vitality is tenacious. It is very difficult to deal with. Moreover, this Heart-eating Zhulan is more than several Yuanhui years old and has already derived spiritual wisdom on its own.
, the strength is equivalent to the Golden Immortal realm.
"Heart-eating chrysanthemum can be subdued. It secretes nectar from the bleeding tract, which is very effective in practicing physical skills." Bodhi continued to explain patiently.
This is the so-called blessing and misfortune.
The West has not taken action to clean up the Heart-Eating Chlamydia, because it considers the problem of surrender in the future. This is a cornucopia of energy that continuously produces nectar.

Manjusri rubbed his temples and suddenly felt overwhelmed with pressure.
"Senior Bodhisattva, if you have any bad news, please tell me." Manjusri asked with a wry smile.
The situation in the Gengdu Mountains was much worse than he had expected. This was not a dojo waiting for salvation, but a death zone full of traps.
Bodhi smiled and waved his hand. The worst case scenario has been told, and the rest is good news.
First of all, there are more than a dozen mud earthworms living deep in the earth's veins.
Mud earthworms are exotic beasts from the earth. Their living habits and abilities are the same as those of ordinary earthworms. However, their bodies are huge, dozens of meters long, and they eat soil and excrete it very quickly.
For Manjusri, this was an unexpected surprise.
Secondly, in the poisonous fog that fills the sky, there are many edelweiss growing.
Things must be reversed at their extremes. Where toxins are condensed to the extreme, heaven and earth will breed treasures with powerful detoxification abilities.
Washing velvet is one of the best.
It is like a large group of snowflakes, floating and swaying in the poisonous mist, blooming with a pure and cold smell.
In addition to resisting toxins, washing velvet can also effectively clean up hidden wounds and form a protective film on the soul to resist curses.
This is a rare treasure.
In addition, there is an even bigger surprise.
In the Gengdu Mountains, there is actually a secret place of heaven and earth - sitting in a well!
