In front of Wang Qiang's eyes, there is a world of birds singing and flowers fragrant. With lush vegetation and gurgling water, the whole world is filled with a refreshing fragrance, making people can't help but feel a sense of freedom and comfort.
In the distance, there are deer jumping across the forest, or staying in the distance, staring blankly at Wang Qiang and other outsiders.
The big dark eyes were full of human doubts, as if they didn't quite understand why such a group of strangers appeared in front of them.
Groups of birds flew overhead, and fish in the stream jumped out of the water, splashing large swaths of water. This was a world without any disputes, killings, or hatred. Everything seemed so quiet and peaceful, and everything seemed peaceful.
So...abrupt.
That’s right, it’s just abrupt!
In his past life, Wang Qiang has never seen such a pure land. As long as there are human beings, it must be full of killings and disputes. Paradise only exists in legends. Stories like the sound of chickens and dogs can be heard, and there is no contact between old age and death.
, is just a fantasy of the predecessors.
But at this moment, the world in front of him seemed to be the legendary paradise. Wang Qiang looked around and did not notice any dangerous atmosphere.
However, under careful perception, a hint of ridicule appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously.
"But where there are human beings, there is no so-called pure land. However, this place is uninhabited, but it has become a pure land. Perhaps this is the greatest irony in the world."
"That Caomu layman may be a performance artist. He spent thousands of years and a lifetime creating such an extremely ironic performance art."
"Your Highness, shall we go?"
After looking at Wuqiu Mountain not far away, Wang Qiang suppressed his thoughts deeply.
Jiang Zhixi frowned and looked at Wang Qiang, and finally nodded: "Don't waste any more time."
We walked towards Wuqiu Mountain without saying a word. Facing the scene in front of us, everyone felt like they didn't know what to say or what to do.
The people present are all beings who have grown up in the tempering of blood and fire. They have experienced countless killings in their lives. However, even such determined people are inevitably affected by the peaceful world in front of them. It seems that
As a herbalist, he may also be well versed in psychology.
"You clearly knew just now that if you just take one step forward, you can get out of the place shrouded in thick fog, why did you try to trick me into agreeing to a condition?"
Jiang Zhixi suddenly looked at Wang Qiang who was walking at the end, bit her lip and spoke.
But Wang Qiang replied with a surprised look on his face: "What does Her Highness mean by this, and why can't I understand it?"
"So when you asked me to agree to a condition, you didn't know that if we took one more step forward, we would be able to escape from the dense fog maze?" Jiang Zhixi asked after giving Wang Qiang a deep look.
Wang Qiang nodded with a serious face: "That's natural. I, Wang Qiang, am not someone who likes to lie."
Wang Qiang is probably the only person in this world who can tell lies casually in the paradise. Even at this moment, his reaction to this paradise is very different from other people.
Now, including Lin Ting, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of awe when they felt the scene in front of them. They couldn't bear to disturb the tranquility of this place, as if they wanted to protect the last bit of softness in their hearts.
But Wang Qiang was different. Except for a hint of surprise in his eyes when he first saw this world, everything was as usual.
It was as if the scene in front of him had no impact on him at all.
"I don't understand. Are you really so hard-hearted that you haven't even had the slightest feeling in this paradise?" Jiang Zhixi looked at Wang Qiang with some doubts, and her face was full of doubts.
Wang Qiang, on the other hand, shrugged and said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess also said that this is a paradise. Since it is a paradise, it means that all the beauty in front of us is just a castle in the air and fleeting."
"And I never pay any attention to things that I can't hold in my hands, because it's just a waste of time."
Wang Qiang's performance was calmer and colder than before.
Jiang Zhixi looked at Wang Qiang like this and wanted to refute, but for some reason, she couldn't say a word. Maybe she also knew that what Wang Qiang said was correct.
Along the way, everyone did not encounter any danger, and arrived at the foot of Wuqiu Mountain unimpeded.
I saw a cave appearing in front of the not-so-huge mountain. The entire Wuqiu Mountain was hollowed out. There were naturally formed skylights on the peaks, allowing the sunlight to shine in, making the entire cave invisible to the outside world.
different.
Even the cave is filled with all kinds of strange and bright flowers. This scene, as if you are in a sea of flowers, makes Wei Wuji, Zhou Zhenbei and other older monks look askance.
"I didn't expect that there is such a beautiful pure land hidden in this world. Now I believe more and more that the heart of the mountain is hidden here."
Lin Ting spoke slowly, seeming to be quite emotional. However, when he looked at Wang Qiang, he still couldn't hide the resentment and resentment in his heart.
On the surface, he admires the tranquility and peace of this paradise, but deep down, he still has not forgotten his resentment and dissatisfaction. This is Lin Ting's true face and the truth of this world.
"There is an upward staircase over there. The heart of the mountain must exist here."
Zhou Zhenbei suddenly spoke and pointed to a winding staircase inside the mountain. Seeing this, Jiang Zhixi's eyes lit up and she rushed forward.
Upon seeing this, Lin Ting followed closely behind him, but Wang Qiang, on the other hand, was hung far behind him.
"Dong dong...dong dong..."
A short but powerful heartbeat sounded suddenly, attracting everyone's attention.
Standing on the edge of the stairs and looking up, a huge emerald green heart was hanging on the top of the mountain and beating continuously.
Around the emerald green heart are connected vines of the same emerald green. The vines are like blood vessels, transporting nutrients to the entire paradise, providing a steady stream of nutrients for the flowers, trees, birds and animals here.
Obviously, the emerald green heart is the heart of the mountain.
The most fundamental reason why this place has become a paradise is because of the heart of the mountain.
On the way here, Jiang Zhixi once said that the heart of the mountain is a natural treasure formed by absorbing the essence of mountains, rocks, vegetation, and trees. It often takes tens of thousands of years to truly take shape, and the conditions for its formation are also extremely strict.
This kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure is basically something that can only be seen once in a lifetime. Throughout the ages, the number of recorded mountain hearts can be counted with one hand, which shows how rare this thing is.
At first, when Jiang Zhixi heard that performing the Mountain and River Map actually required the heart of the mountain as a spiritual guide, she even couldn't believe it. Where on earth could she find a heart of the mountain in such a short period of time.
Fortunately, hard work paid off and she finally found it.
There should be a glimmer of hope for Prancing Pony City.
