Chapter 25: The Living Mountain
"What's the purpose of that pollen? What's the purpose of this mountain?"
"Mountains also have emotions. They hate others disturbing them, so they produce pollen just to prevent others from getting close to them. But this is useless to some people, but it only has this method. After all, it is just a mountain.
It doesn't have a brain, it can only have this instinctive reaction."
"Are you saying that it created these many caves intentionally?"
"Probably. It built a big maze. It must also be to prevent people from approaching. It is protecting itself. Whether it is an animal or a plant, it has its own deepest secrets, and they will use certain methods to protect their secrets.
.”
I smiled bitterly. This statement was a bit absurd, but I believed it. In fact, I have seen this kind of thing quite a lot. The giant ghost locust trees in Qinling Mountains and the woods in Nanling Mountains that can walk on their own are all a kind of
A very strange phenomenon. The only difference is that it was originally a living thing, but the mountain is dead. Now there is a living mountain, which is really hard to believe.
I said, how should we find the way in now? Is it possible that we still need to negotiate with the mountain?
This was just said casually, but Shuiyue nodded and said: "We have to find the way the ancient King of Shu got in. He must have used some special method to get in, and he even came and went freely here.
That method must be recognized by this mountain."
Is this possible? I feel a little frustrated. The ancient King of Shu has a history of nearly two thousand years. Even if he used any special methods, it should be covered up by this long history. How do we find it? We can’t dig it out
Let's search the entire valley and mountain peaks with three feet of ground. Even if we are given a month, we won't be able to finish it!
I just finished complaining, but I saw that Shuiyue was not anxious at all, with a smile on her lips, sometimes looking at me, sometimes looking at the sky, looking very leisurely. My heart couldn't help but think, could she have thought of a way? But
Looking at her look like this, she must have some evil idea in her head, and it must be aimed at me personally.
"Well, Xiaoyue, the weather is not bad today. Well, what are you thinking about?" Seeing her like this made my scalp feel numb. In fact, I didn't want to stir up the topic, but if I didn't speak, I guess her
She can keep her ideas stuck in her stomach, that's the kind of person she is.
"I'm thinking of you!" she said.
"Miss me? What do you miss me for? Is there something wrong with me?"
"Haha, something is wrong, very wrong. You said that this marriage that my grandpa and my grandma arranged for us, why is it that I am the only one who has the burden of shaving my head? You don't seem to care at all. Are you almost thirty years old?
I, a girl under twenty years old, didn’t say anything to you as an old man. What else do you have to be particular about? If I give you a chance to eat young grass, you won’t be tempted at all? "
What she said was very straightforward, but when the topic came up, I had nothing to say. In fact, I felt strange myself. Shui Yue is definitely a standard beauty, but she looks too much like Shui Ling.
Yes, I always have a weird feeling when facing her. What's more important is that there is still a thorn in my heart. When I think of this thorn, I am no longer interested in any girl.
How could the smart Shuiyue not see it? She sighed softly and said: "Are you thinking about He Piaoxue again? You should understand that even if she is still alive, it is impossible for the two of you. She is me
Grandma’s daughter is also my aunt. Although my grandma and grandpa were not together in the end, she is still considered your elder. Coupled with the existence of He Tao, the conflicts between him, grandpa and my grandma, you have to ask yourself
Is there still a chance?"
Why don't I understand what she said? In fact, I have stopped thinking about it a long time ago, but I still feel uncomfortable every time I think about it. There is helplessness and blame, why didn't I know about this earlier, why did I have to
Wait until you feel something in your heart to let me know how absurd my thoughts are?
But who can I blame? The wrong thing happened in the wrong place at the wrong time, who can I blame? I can only find some comfort for myself in my heart. This is a trick of fate. How can people fight against fate?
It’s better to put away your self-pity thoughts and regard it as a dream!
"Forget it, it's up to you what you think. Grandma is right, no matter how high the bird flies, there will always be a time when it gets tired and when it falls to the ground, then you can talk about these meaningless things in your opinion.
Bar!"
"You listen to your grandma so much? You are too deeply poisoned by your grandma's thoughts." I couldn't help but mutter.
Unexpectedly, Shuiyue's expression suddenly became a little lonely, and she said to herself: "Grandma, grandma, she is so pitiful. She is glamorous in front of others, but who knows the pain in her heart! A woman's greatest ideal is not
How beautiful it is, I just want to find a man who loves me and I love him, have two filial children, and have a happy family. However, grandma did not realize her wish, and all she buried in her heart was regret
It’s just pain!”
I know almost the story about Shui Ling. She is indeed a poor woman. The person she loves the most is also the person she hates the most. She also gave birth to the child of her enemy. After hating her for most of her life, she found out in the end that she was
A misunderstanding, she was deceived by her husband, and she has lost the chance to love again and owes her daughter too much...
"It's just a bother, just look away. Let's get down to business." Shuiyue said, pointing to the flowers: "These are the flowers that can help us get in. We need to collect some pollen."
I immediately understood what she meant, but I still had some doubts about whether this would work. But now I could only give it a try. I asked Liu Qingping and the others to prepare another tent, and then waited. Naturally, the pollen was waiting.
As for the eruption time, we don't know when they will erupt, but seeing that the flowers are trembling more and more frequently, it probably won't be long.
Sure enough, about two hours later, the petals of those flowers slowly shrank into a ball and stopped trembling. Suddenly, the flowers suddenly opened at the same time, and a white "smoke" spewed out from them.
Suddenly, the entire cliff became completely white.
We quickly covered the tent over some flowers, and more and more pollen was sprayed out. The pollen seemed to be able to move on its own, spreading rapidly towards the mouth of the valley in a wave shape, and soon the entire valley became completely white.
.
The pollen spurt lasted for about ten minutes and finally gradually weakened until it finally stopped. The flowers after spraying pollen almost turned transparent, and then began to tremble slowly and frequently again.
We opened the tent, and there was already a layer of pollen inside, but the pollen was very strange. The color slowly became lighter when it was still, and then became transparent like those flowers.
"Let's sprinkle some on our bodies." Shuiyue said, already grabbing some and patting it on the clothes. We all followed suit. Up to now, Liu Qingping and the others still didn't know what was going on, so they kept asking about the pollen.
What's the point of having it on my body? I didn't want to tell them about the living mountain, so I just found an excuse to deal with it. Anyway, I don't know if this method is useful now, and it doesn't make much sense no matter how much I talk about it.
In addition to sprinkling some on ourselves, each of us also packed some. The pollen is very light, no wonder it can float in the air for a long time. Suddenly I had a ridiculous idea in my mind. If I take these pollen back and share them with other flowers,
If pollinated, will a big mountain grow out?
We walked into the cave again, and this time it suddenly felt a little different. No one could tell what the difference was, it was just a change in feeling.
After walking for almost an hour, the surrounding stone caves gradually became larger, which we had never seen before, and the forks in the stone caves gradually became less and less. This was a gratifying discovery and proved our method.
That's right, now we have gone deeper than we have ever been before. As we go deeper, we slowly see something different.
"Look there." Liu Qingping pointed to a place and exclaimed. We walked over and saw two corpses lying in the corner of a stone cave. The clothes and the weapons in his hands were the same as what we had seen before.
They should be soldiers under the command of the ancient King of Shu, but these two people did not turn into white bones. Their corpses were still very fresh. The skin was dark purple, and every part of the body was intact, just like a dead wood pile.
But the two eyes were dark and looked a bit eerie.
Shuiyue told me that this kind of living mountain must be a place where anger gathers. Although it is not a dragon vein, its effect is comparable to a dragon vein. It is definitely a good corpse raising place, so it is normal for the corpse not to rot. But Liu Qingping
However, a few people did not understand these methods. When they saw that the corpse that had been nearly two thousand years old had no decay, they all started to look at each other, looking a little nervous and scared.
Even Liu Qingping, who was more courageous, changed his expression and muttered: "Damn it, are these the legendary 'thousand-year zombies'? Do you think they will wake up suddenly and eat us?"
"Have you read too many novels?" Han Qiwei immediately objected. "There are no zombies in this world. They are all fabricated. How can the dead come back to life? This is impossible."
"That's not necessarily true. Have you forgotten the night wandering god we saw before? That's how Zhao Yulian's body became, isn't it still alive?"
