I want to embrace the moon for nine days
Chapter 283 Pure Land
On the boat, Ouyang Chun and the Flower God Princess were having a conversation.
Suddenly, the water rippled and a voice came from afar. It seemed to be a child's voice, but with unusual calmness and stability.
"Since you two have come here specifically for this island, why don't you stay on the island for a while?"
Ouyang Chun smiled and said, "Sorry to bother you then."
The couple stood up hand in hand, walked in the air, and reached the island in just a few breaths.
The precious sword left on the bow did not move, and the boat was as steady as a rock in the waves, without any shaking.
In Panshe Valley and Tianxiang Forest, all the divine silkworm babies had been put into a picture by Nie Feiying and were fast asleep. He himself also hid himself with the picture.
A piece of yellow cloth was spread on the grass. Su Hanshan sat on it, fiddling with the tea set and mixing the tea with the golden elixir energy.
Zhihua was gathering some medicinal materials nearby, and placed the alchemy furnace, bellows, water bag, copper urn and other instruments used for alchemy not far away.
Ouyang Chun came over and the two sides exchanged their names.
Su Hanshan's eyes moved slightly: "So it's Bei Xia, then this one..."
Ouyang Chun smiled and said, "This is my wife."
"The flowers remain the same."
Princess Flower God continued, with a hint of emotion in her words, "The Heshi Jade Disk, which has been honored by the Qin Emperor and Han Emperor, can be shattered. The magnetic axis of the heaven and earth and the ancient glaciers at the North and South Poles can also be destroyed."
“Only wild flowers and grass, which can be seen everywhere, can have their fragrance remain the same for thousands of years.”
It's just a name when we meet... This lady is a bit of a literary youth.
Su Hanshan smiled and said, "Please!"
Zhihua had also come over, but he did not introduce himself. He just poured two cups of tea for Ouyang Chun and his wife.
The three of them sat down, and Zhihua also picked up a cup and sipped it slowly.
During this period of time, he helped Su Hanshan to make pills.
Su Hanshan occasionally mixed some tea, which refreshed Zhihua's eyes and ears. He had never seen such a way of mixing tea, so he liked to taste it very much.
"Hey, this tea..."
Ouyang Chun is also a tea and wine lover. After taking a sip, he said with emotion, "I have traveled all over the country, but I have never tasted tea like this. The taste and aroma are both unique."
"I'm so ashamed. We came out late at night to enjoy the scenery on a whim. We heard that this was the old place of Senior Tang Ao. Unexpectedly, we disturbed you and asked for your tea, but we have no way to return the favor."
Ouyang Chun briefly explained the whole story, then cupped his hands and said, "I know that the mountain rain flower tea produced in Wuxi Yuhuatai is world-famous and is not inferior to Longjing Biluochun."
"Especially in winter, there are also a few magical tea trees growing under the steep cliffs. They are clearer after the snow and few people know about them. It is best to pick them at dusk. I will go there in a few days, pick them myself, and make the tea leaves as a gift to you."
Hongze Lake is about six or seven hundred miles away from Wuxi.
But Ouyang Chun liked to travel around, and he brought the Flower Goddess Princess with him. He also knew that Kunlun Xixia would definitely hunt him down, so he was unwilling to stay in one place for long and cause trouble.
Traveling thousands of miles to pick tea for friends is just a habitual and easy thing for him.
The Flower Goddess Princess also drank the tea and felt the sweet fragrance lingering on her lips and teeth. She couldn't help but chuckle when she heard what her husband said.
"Who has the patience to wait for you for two or three days?"
As the Flower Goddess spoke, she stretched out her left hand, and her white and tender fingers trembled gently, swaying like a rare flower on a snowy mountain, leaving a deep trace in the air.
"Let me return the favor with a few cups of tea."
Su Hanshan sensed that the dark mark led to the underworld and watched with great interest.
The Flower Goddess Princess changed several gestures, her eyes seemed to be open and closed, and after a moment, she stretched out her hand to grab.
Several pieces of jade the size of finger joints flew out from the crack in the underworld, and then the crack closed.
The emerald fell into the hands of the Flower Goddess Princess, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into several green fruits.
The peel is tender and no longer looks like the cold and hard texture of jade.
The underworld in this world is very different from things like the dreams of living beings.
The biggest difference is that there is a large amount of matter in the underworld.
The earth, mountains, rivers, desert dust in the underworld are all physical matter.
However, the properties of matter in the underworld are obviously very different from those in the world of the living.
If you pick up a random stone from the underworld and bring it to the world of the living, it may turn into a piece of jade, it may turn into a pool of water, or it may explode directly.
The Flower Goddess Princess was able to collect things from the underworld to make tea, and it was obvious that she had done extensive research in this area.
"I saw that Hongze Lake had a beautiful scenery, with fish and shrimps swimming in the lake bottom, and they were quite spiritual. There were poisonous snakes roaming on the island, and they were cunning. I expected that the corresponding place in the underworld would definitely grow some flowers and plants, and I found it."
She explained, "This is the green viper fruit. If it is soaked in rice wine, it is considered top quality. It is also good for making tea."
There is a corresponding relationship between the Yin and Yang worlds. Often, in prosperous places in the Yang world, corresponding places in the underworld may not only have more thoughts, but may also grow some flowers, plants, and minerals.
While she was processing the fruit and preparing to make tea, Su Hanshan said, "So Madam is a Pure Land Immortal?"
Pure Land Immortality is another path of cultivation in this world.
The history of land-walking immortals is very ancient. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were already people who had cultivated to the level of land-walking immortals.
The Pure Land Immortals only took shape during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and it was not until the Sui and Tang Dynasties that some people who achieved great success in this field emerged.
According to legend, in ancient times, the underworld consisted of nothing but the boundless land and countless evil thoughts as small as sand. Therefore, among the practitioners of our ancestors, there were occasionally some gifted and strong-minded people who were able to connect to the underworld, but they would encounter disasters instead.
Ordinary creatures at that time were normal in the world of the living, but once they died, their thoughts went to the underworld, and it wouldn't take long for them to be completely assimilated by the evil thoughts of the underworld.
In this situation, naturally only relying on the physical body, tempering oneself through thousands of times, and taking conquering demons as the true meaning can be considered the right path. The wisdom of countless practitioners is also invested in this aspect.
However, with the development and growth of the land-based immortal route, more and more practitioners have transformed demonic energy into vital energy, and a great trend has been brewing between heaven and earth.
Even if an ordinary creature in the world enters the underworld after death, his soul will only disintegrate and his thoughts will fly around, and these thoughts will not be assimilated for at least a few hundred years.
In this way, there are more and more ordinary thoughts in the underworld, and some talented people began to think about it.
They do not try to induce the invisible demons in their bodies to fight against them, but instead use prayer rituals such as burning incense and offering wine, or directly rely on the help of their predecessors to sense the ordinary thoughts in the underworld.
Rely directly on the thoughts of the undead to hone yourself.
Although the thoughts of the undead are also filled with emotions, love, hate, resentment, and all kinds of illusions and strange thoughts, they are at least simpler than practicing martial arts to subdue demons.
For those who follow this path, with constant training and recuperation, their mental power will become more and more refined, and eventually they can even create a landscape in the underworld that suits their state of mind.
When this kind of scenery stabilizes in the underworld, it can be called the Pure Land.
Su Hanshan was actually quite interested in this route, and thought it might be possible to use it to verify his own Five Thunders Dream.
However, compared to the demon-subduing martial arts that can transform demonic energy into energy, the importance of the Pure Land Immortal is more than one level lower.
The former is a treasure that may shine brightly in the devil's calamity and greatly increase the chances of survival of fellow countrymen in the hometown.
The latter is just a more interesting route of spiritual practice.
If not like this world, there was a vast underworld that was "very easy" to enter.
If placed in other worlds, the route of Pure Land Immortal might lose a lot of conveniences.
Therefore, since Su Hanshan entered this world, he has been focusing on the art of subduing demons and has never been distracted by anything else.
"Now... it doesn't count." Princess Flower God concentrated on removing the core of the fruit and said calmly, "Something happened. My pure land has been taken back by the elders."
Su Hanshan was surprised: "Can the Pure Land be taken away?"
His understanding of the Pure Land Immortals came only from Heituo.
But he could already figure out that the true foundation of the Pure Land could be said to be the spiritual projection of the practitioner himself.
The practitioner's true body walks in the world of the living, and the Pure Land follows freely in the underworld, and the connection between them is extremely close.
Since it is a projection of the mind, if others cut off the connection between the real body and the Pure Land, the Pure Land will lose its root supply and will naturally fade and disappear soon.
As for practitioners, as long as their real body is not dead, they can use their thoughts to project a pure land in the underworld.
Therefore, it is almost impossible to take away a person's pure land.
"Mr. Su doesn't know?"
Princess Flower God was also a little surprised. "Sir, this body should be a reincarnation of the dead. To be able to master this secret technique, even if you are not a major practitioner of this path, you should have a deep understanding of it."
"Don't you know that some pure lands in the world can be inherited? My pure land was originally passed down by my elders, so it can naturally be taken away by them."
Su Hanshan smiled and said, "My resurrection was a coincidence."
When warriors in the world are in the demon-subduing realm, they transform invisible demons into real special powers. Most of them gain physical transformation, or control over wind and fire, etc.
But there are a very small number of people who may obtain magical powers such as soul reincarnation, and transform them into magical powers when they become land-walking immortals.
After Su Hanshan said this, Ouyang Chun and his wife naturally thought that was the case.
"I see."
Princess Flower God explained, "Compared to the land-based immortals, the Pure Land Immortal is a path that takes shortcuts. Since the predecessors have already taken shortcuts, those who embark on this path will naturally do their best to use their brains in this regard."
"Because Pure Land practitioners have too deep a connection with the underworld, after a certain period of time, they will suffer backlash from the underworld, and their lifespan will only be a hundred years or so."
"Whether it is a sect, a school, or a family, if they are lucky enough to have such a person, the protection he can bring will not be as long-lasting as Lu Xingxian. How can people be willing to accept this? That's why they try every possible means to create a secret method. Even if the person dies, the power must be left behind."
"This kind of thing also requires the Lord of the Pure Land to be willing to cooperate. In his later years, he should voluntarily give up his physical body one or two years in advance and let his soul enter the underworld. With the help of secret methods, he can make sure that after his soul disperses, it will still be within the scope of his own Pure Land."
"Then, future generations of disciples will use incense, wine, their own thoughts, and the public to make offerings. This kind of pure land can be preserved for about seven years."
"As long as within seven years, a person who practices the same technique and reaches the third level of strength appears and inherits the Pure Land, he can immediately gain the power of a Pure Land Immortal."
Su Hanshan nodded slightly, and thought of the Xilu Sword Sect unexpectedly.
The entire Xilu Sword Sect was wiped out, and all the sword spirits were transformed into vengeful spirits.
But if those sword spirits were inherited normally, knew how to tolerate and cooperate with each other, with one main and multiple deputy swords, and they all lived in the body of a descendant from the previous generation, they should be able to directly create a Xuantai fighter.
"In fact, a single stick of incense that can reach the underworld and nourish the Pure Land is often mixed with some underworld substances and carefully refined, and is very valuable."
"Ordinary local sects and family forces are simply not enough to support an ownerless pure land."
Ouyang Chun added, "Throughout the world, the ones who use this Pure Land inheritance method the most are often the royal families and officials of the great countries."
"The Sheep Guarding God of the Western Xia, the Southern Zhanbuzhou of the Yelu clan and the Tianmen of the Xiao clan of the Liao, and the Pure Land of the Wise King of the Song were all famous when the country was founded and were circulated among the royal family."
"There are also some pure lands that are not suitable for the royal family. They can also be temporarily granted to corresponding officials. If the official himself has outstanding qualifications and dies in office, it can further enhance the foundation of the pure land."
By this time, the Flower Goddess Princess had already made the tea and passed it to everyone.
Su Hanshan took two sips and felt that it was a bit like adding wolfberry to green tea, but the taste was quite refreshing.
Moreover, after taking a few sips of tea, he felt that his spirit was nourished a little.
"People who practice the Pure Land path are really good at communicating with the underworld."
Su Hanshan thought that many of the medicinal herbs in the Jinling Palace were not actually pure medicines from the mortal world.
During the growth process, it is necessary to extract the magic water from the underworld for watering, or even mix a certain proportion of the underworld sand directly into the soil, and replace it regularly.
Feng Kun and Zhu Liang were willing to serve as guests of the Jinling Palace largely because the palace could supply them with those medicinal materials on a long-term basis.
Ouyang Chun smiled and was about to say something.
Suddenly, the sound of a sword clanging was heard from outside the island.
Ouyang Chun's face changed slightly, he stood up and raised his hand to grab.
I saw a long green shadow flying in the air and falling into the valley.
Since ancient times, there have been legends about precious swords hanging on the wall and making a sound, precious swords whistling in their boxes, and other legends of magical weapons giving warnings.
This Turtle Spirit Seven Treasures Sword is an heirloom from Ouyang Chun's family. It had already been trained to be psychic in his father's hands, and after it came into his hands, he was able to use it with one mind and in harmony, and he was able to wield it as he wished.
The sword is the leader of all weapons. One can imagine the courage and alertness of a strong man who has broken through to the land-walking immortal realm with the sword skills.
However, people have many thoughts and complex emotions.
Sometimes, a pure weapon like the Turtle Spirit Seven Treasures Sword is more capable of sensing danger than the sword's owner himself.
This precious sword, which was originally placed on the bow of the boat, had obviously been pulled out by itself.
But after pulling it out, plug it back in immediately.
The handle guard and the green shark skin scabbard just caught the collar of a three-inch man.
The proportions of this little man's hands, feet, waist and body seem normal, but the eyes and ears on his head are too large, which makes people feel uncomfortable when looking at them.
After being clamped by the handle and scabbard of the knife, the little guy was struggling hard, flailing his limbs.
Seeing him falling into the valley, with several people watching him, the little man suddenly let out a strange cry and turned into a wisp of yellow smoke.
"It's the Ear Reporting God!!"
Ouyang Chun held his knife tightly, his face heavy.
"My sword would not move easily unless it sensed malicious intent."
"But collecting thoughts from the smoke of the underworld, condensing them into the Ear Reporting Spirit, shuttling between the Yin and Yang worlds, going up to the sky and down to the earth, searching thousands of miles, gathering information, and reporting back to the commander. This is the secret method of the Song army. Liao and Xia countries have not been able to steal it."
"Why would anyone in the Song army want to embarrass me?"
He had something to say but held back.
People at the Land-Walking Immortal Realm cannot be found by relying on a little ghost like the Ear-Reporting God.
These ear-reporting gods must have come to track down the Flower Goddess Princess, but after the Flower Goddess lost her pure land, her aura had been hidden by Ouyang Chun's internal energy until he traveled thousands of miles underwater, escaping the pursuit and returning to Jiangnan, where he relaxed a little.
Therefore, these ear-reporting gods must have been to the ancestral tomb of his Ouyang family before they could find the traces from there and track them down.
Ancestral tomb!!
The blue veins on the back of Ouyang Chun's hand twitched slightly.
Princess Flower God grabbed his wrist in a soothing manner and apologized to Su Hanshan, "We have some troubles. We thought it would be fine for the time being, but we didn't expect to cause trouble for you, sir."
"We will leave now, hoping to lead the people away, but I am afraid that there will be too many people chasing us and they will be unreasonable. It is better for you to leave the island and find a place to hide for a few days."
There will never be only one ear-reporting god acting alone. These little ghosts are like cockroaches. If you can find one, it means there are a lot of them secretly.
Maybe someone has received the message and is on the way.
