Chapter 132: The Italian Net Is Hard to Take (Part 2)
When the prince entered the cave, he saw that the cave was not too deep and could not hide any poisonous insects or beasts. [ ] Moreover, it was dry and clean inside, and the mountain breeze swept through the cave softly from time to time, without a trace of dust. The cave
Deep in the depths, under the dim light, there are a few chairs and a couch faintly visible. They are all made of rocks and rough in workmanship, but at a glance it is obvious that they must have been made by manpower. It seems as if there is another owner here.
The prince's heart was moved, and he quickly let go of his soul to look around, but saw that there was no trace of life in the cave, and there were no traces of people. He was still a little confused, so he immediately walked out of the cave entrance, stood still, closed his eyes slightly, and his mind radiated in all directions.
, carefully feeling every breath within a hundred miles. But after a while, the prince slowly opened his eyes, shook his head to himself, and found nothing unusual. He thought that this might be something left by the previous cultivators.
I didn’t think much about the relics I had left. I immediately turned around and went into the cave. I placed some of the Taoist classics I had brought with me on several tables. Then I turned around and climbed onto the stone couch, and fell down in my clothes.
Fall asleep.
Since the prince left his country, he has traveled long distances and encountered many obstacles from Feng Yi and his mother on the road. By this time, the prince was exhausted both physically and mentally. Once he relaxed his mind, he would naturally have a sweet sleep.
.
However, not long after the prince fell asleep, the purple air was thick at the entrance of the cave, and the figure of Daluo Jinxian Zixia Yuanjun, who had been watching the prince's every move and supporting him all the way east, appeared in front of him again. He smiled kindly,
With a flick of his hand, a gust of fragrant wind passed by, and the tattered clothes on the prince's body suddenly disappeared, replaced by a robe that was new and not old.
At this time, a long and long roar of a tiger was faintly heard in the distance. Yuanjun turned around and walked out of the cave, nodding slightly toward the place where the sound came from, thoughtfully. His figure gradually faded in the purple air, and the mountain wind blew by.
The figure has disappeared...
The prince slept all day and all night, and only woke up at noon the next day.
He slowly opened his eyes, stretched lazily, took a deep breath, and a faint aroma of fruit immediately came from his nostrils. Although he had already taken ginseng fruit at this time, he would not be interested in it even if he didn't need to eat.
The body is somewhat damaged, but after all, he is still alive, and the body functions of a normal person are still running normally. He has not eaten in the past few days, and feels that his belly is empty, and the desire for food arises spontaneously.
He couldn't resist the temptation of the fruity aroma and hurriedly walked out of the cave entrance to check. He saw many kinds of mountain fruits scattered on a smooth rock beside the cave entrance. The aroma was introduced into the cave from here. The cave
The light outside was bright, and as soon as the prince moved around, he realized that the clothes on his body had changed unknowingly. He was very surprised, thinking that with his own cultivation, someone could actually do something without his knowledge.
The ability to change one's own clothes is really unbelievable. If this person had any ill intentions towards me, wouldn't it be as easy as taking his own life?! But judging from the actions of that person who did not alarm him, this person
They must be friends, not enemies. But he thought about all the people he knew, but he still couldn't find anyone with such a superb ability.
Puzzled, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and patted his chest, and a strange vision suddenly occurred. However, he saw a wisp of purple mist suddenly drifting from the clothes, and a familiar fragrance suddenly filled his nostrils.
The aroma of mountain fruits also completely covered it up. The prince was startled, and then smiled knowingly, and the kind face of Zixia Yuanjun immediately appeared in his mind.
After solving the mystery, the prince remembered the mountain fruit he had just seen. He couldn't restrain his surprise and quickly took a closer look. Only then did he realize that in the shadow behind the rock, the mount of his mother, Queen Shansheng.
Black Tiger was lying prone on the ground, raising his head and staring at himself with a pair of big amber eyes.
The prince was startled, thinking that his mother had already chased him, so he turned around without saying a word and was about to leave. The black tiger neither made a sound nor chased after him. He still lay quietly where he was and looked at the prince's back.
at every turn.
The prince took a few steps and found that there was no mother's voice around him. He couldn't help but feel startled. He quickly looked around, only to see that the surrounding fields were vast, hazy and lonely in the morning light. Except for the heavy breathing of the black tiger, there was nothing in the area around him.
Inside, there is no trace of anyone at all.
The prince was a little worried at this time. He thought that since the black tiger appeared, his mother would definitely be nearby. But now that there is no trace of his mother, could it be that something unexpected happened to her in the wilderness?! If this is true, then what happened to her?
As a son of man, I have committed a crime that will never be redeemed by death!
As soon as he thought of this, the prince was sweating like rain. He turned around and walked to Heihu. He raised his hand and slapped off the corner of the rock where the fruit was placed. Amidst the flying stone chips, he stared at Heihu and asked sharply:
"Xiao Hei! There are dangers everywhere in this barren mountain. Why did you come here instead of protecting your mother?! Could it be that your poor care caused something unexpected happened to her?!"
The black tiger trembled and stood up abruptly, its eyes filled with grievances. It kept shaking its head while letting out low roars at the prince.
The prince had grown up with it since he was a child, and had been able to understand the meaning of its every move. After seeing this, he realized that his mother was not in danger, and he immediately felt relieved. But when he thought about it, doubts arose again in his heart, and again
He stepped forward and asked with a stern face: "Xiao Hei, since my mother is fine, why are you here alone but my mother is nowhere to be seen?"
After hearing this, the black tiger suddenly left the prince and rushed to the edge of the cliff. He leaned down and roared in the direction of Jing Le Kingdom while nodding his head repeatedly, as if he was kowtowing to the place and master who raised it. The prince felt sad in his heart.
When he walked forward to take a look, he saw tears gleaming in Hei Hu's big eyes, and his eyes were full of desolation.
At this time, the prince had vaguely understood in his heart and could not bear to criticize it any more. He walked forward and reached out to gently stroke the long smooth hair on its head. He suppressed his sadness and asked softly: "Xiao Hei, don't be angry. I
It's just a moment of impatience. But let me ask you, has my mother stopped looking for me and gone back to the King's Palace of Pure Joy?"
Heihu seemed a little disgusted by the prince's touch. He shook his head and broke away from his hand, stood up and walked aside. Then he nodded at the prince to indicate that he was right.
The prince knew that the black tiger had a deep relationship with his mother. Although it was supernatural, it was still difficult to understand the complex emotions of human beings. In its understanding, the queen was its mother. As long as someone treated the queen badly or made the queen sad, it would
It will treat him as an enemy. But because it also knows that the prince's importance in the queen's heart is even greater than its own. Although it is slightly jealous in its heart, it does not dare to hurt the prince's heart at all, because in the heart of the queen,
In its simple and simple consciousness, if it hurts the prince, it is equivalent to hurting the queen, but this is a result it does not want to see.
Because of his understanding, the prince did not take Black Tiger's rudeness seriously at this time. Instead, he felt a trace of guilt in his heart. He could not bear to let this loyal beast be wronged again, so he immediately relied on him step by step. He went up to him and struck up a conversation with a smile: "Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei, please don't be angry! The reason why I ran away from home this time even if it made my mother sad and shed tears, is because I had no choice but to do so. You won’t understand! Let’s do this. I can write a letter and you can take it back to the palace and give it to your father and mother, telling them that I am relaxed and comfortable here, living a good life, and asking them to rest assured. Wait for me to practice Taoism in the future. If you succeed, maybe you will go back to the palace to visit them, do you think so?"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Hei not only didn't appreciate what he said, but instead lowered his head under his two front paws and stopped looking at him.
The prince felt slightly embarrassed, and then said again: "Xiao Hei, I understand. Did the queen mother know that I refused to go back, and was afraid that I would be alone in the mountains without anyone to protect me, so she left you with me?" If this is really the case, you have to think clearly. This time I enter the mountain, it can be at least three to five years, as long as more than ten years, or even worse, I may not be able to go down the mountain for more than a hundred years. Before I came here, I had made up my mind, if If you can't attain Tao for a day, you will never leave this mountain. The loneliness in this deep mountain is not as comfortable as the days when you open your mouth after eating in the palace. Think about it carefully, if you feel that you can bear it, you can stay. If not, you I can go back now and I can take care of myself!"
Upon hearing this, the black tiger's long hair trembled, and Queen Shansheng's ardent instructions when parting immediately echoed in its ears. At this time, it suddenly forgot about the resentment in its heart towards the prince, and quickly raised its head and nodded at him like garlic. , indicating that it could do it. Then it stood up, jumped to the side of the stone platform, picked up a bunch of mountain fruits from the gravel, turned around and sent it to the prince with a swaying head.
The prince was moved when he saw this, and he was even more confident in his path of spiritual cultivation. At this time, he thought to himself, a beast with incomplete six senses can still aspire. As a human being who is the spirit of all things, he also bears the name of a great god in his previous life. Head, can’t you endure decades of loneliness?!
Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand to take the mountain fruit, patted the black tiger's head a few times, then turned around and walked to the cave to sit down. After chewing a few mountain fruits, the hunger and thirst in his belly subsided a little, and he calmed down. I began to read carefully the Taoist classics I brought with me.【】
