The little girl's breathing suddenly became rapid, and she was a little excited.
"Lord Wolf God..." She subconsciously took a few steps forward, wanting to salute, but when she raised her hand, she remembered that Lord Wolf God forbid her to do so, and her hand suddenly froze in midair awkwardly, neither salute nor retraction .
Fortunately, the man in white didn't seem to see her embarrassment, but turned his head to look outside the mountain, looked at the bright fireworks rising in the night sky, and nodded.
"The fireworks set off by Kazebu are really good-looking and have some Chinese New Year flavors."
Lord Wolf God's warm and calm voice gradually calmed the girl's inner panic.
She walked to Lord Wolf God, couldn't help but secretly looked at Lord Wolf God beside her, and asked Ai Ai regularly, "Master Wolf God, you...you look like this..."
"Yuanshen incarnation is just," Lu Heng in front of the Wolf Temple glanced at her and said with a smile, "I have learned something from my retreat this time. Although this Yuanshen incarnation is not a real body, it also has infinite mysteries."
"If there is a guest visiting in the future, we can welcome the guest without a wolf... Haha..."
Lu Heng laughed softly, feeling quite happy.
The little girl standing beside him lowered her head and clenched her fists excitedly, her heart beating like a drum.
Lord Wolf God, came to see her specially...
The girl who was ready to spend the New Year's Eve alone, suddenly felt a little dizzy, and her whole body was floating and seemed to fall into the clouds.
Silent tears rolled down her downcast face.
In the night sky, the fireworks set off by the Xifeng Department rose into the sky, reflecting the entire Hanyu Mountain in colorful lights, and also engraved the two people and one monkey in front of the Wolf Temple forever in the picture scroll at this moment.
Chapter 55 Peach Blossom Forest
After the New Year's Eve, Hanyushan returned to the tranquility of the past.
The white ape returned to the mountains and forests to find its monkey group, and no longer returned to the Temple of the Wolf. Lu Heng went back to the ground and continued to practice and retreat.
The retreat time this time was longer than the previous one, because Lu Heng's practice had reached a critical point. Deliberately using Yuanshen to incarnate, it's just to spend the New Year's Eve with the little girl.
Today, he is at the most critical first hurdle in the way of cultivation—Opening the Heavenly Gate.
Visualize the inner world and shape your own [Tianmen]. If you can knock on the door and enter, you can be regarded as entering the hall, and you have achieved a little in the way of cultivation.
And if a demon cultivator can knock on the gate of heaven and enter, he can transform into a human being.
This is an extremely important threshold for demon cultivators.
Therefore, Lu Heng had to go all out and try to get rid of outside interference as much as possible.
In the underground shrine, a huge white wolf lay silently in the dark-yellow earth spirit energy, with his eyes slightly closed and motionless, as if he had fallen asleep.
In front of the white wolf, a figure silently suspended.
Between the figure and the white wolf, there is a faint trace of the power of lightning flowing. The power of Tianlei, which warms the body of the white wolf demon, is now slowly refining Lu Heng's primordial spirit.
Between the humanoid primordial spirit and the huge white wolf demon body, the surging power of lightning formed a wonderful cycle, and one could clearly feel the primordial spirit sitting cross-legged in the air becoming more and more solid.
In this kind of spiritual practice, the years in the mountains passed day by day.
After the Spring Festival, the weather became warmer and warmer, and the villagers of Shuisheng Village began to prepare for spring ploughing and sowing, which soon became lively outside the mountain.
For the villagers, spring ploughing is a major event that cannot be ignored.
Even the Kazebu tribe, a tribe where everyone can fight ligers and tigers with their bare hands, is now preparing for spring ploughing. The wasteland that was reclaimed last winter is now fully open.
Every day when the sun shines bright, you can see shadowy villagers planting rice in the rice fields on the plain, and there are people from the Xifeng tribe planting yellow rice and sweet potatoes in the mountains and forests, which is very lively.
In such a fiery atmosphere, the two kinds of flames that alternated between hot and cold seemed to be more and more powerful in the sword furnace behind the Xifeng Department.
Since it was closed years ago, this sword furnace has never been opened again. Two priests were in the sword furnace, casting the Heavenly Tribulation Sword for Lu Heng day and night.
Now, the alternating hot and cold flames no longer rotate every twelve hours, but change every six hours or so.
The land around the sword furnace has long since become barren. Even in the early spring when all things germinate, this area is still barren, because no vegetation can survive in such an extreme environment.
Even the clansmen of the Xifeng clan did not dare to approach the sword furnace anymore, and could not bear the pressure of the two sacred fires that the Nali clan had inherited to this day.
The only one who can get close to the sword furnace is the girl named Qianqian.
But she has been there a few times, but she can only stand outside to guess the casting of the Heavenly Tribulation Sword, and cannot contact the two priests in the sword furnace.
For the girl, the greatest joy now is to go to the Wolf Temple to find Xiao Ai to play.
It's just that Xiao Ai was busy with her practice and felt helpless to her frequent visits. In the end, the two made an agreement to meet each other for three days.
And today is the day when Qianqian can enter the mountain.
When she came out of the tent early in the morning, the girl carried two jars of wine and hummed a cheerful song. She left the camp and stepped into the river running through Hanyu Mountain.
The icy river water surged under her feet, and the girl in the barefoot white dress walked on the waves. The fish in the water were now big and fat because they had not been preyed on a lot for a long time.
When the girl was walking on the river, many curious fishes would even swim under her feet, wriggling their mouths to touch the soles of the girl's feet.
Although she could fly directly to the Wolf Temple, it would be too fast and boring.
She came to have fun, not to travel, so the girl walked through the mountains with a cheerful but no faster pace than ordinary people, and walked through the mountains on the river, and finally came to the small ferry at the foot of the main peak of Hanyu Mountain.
This small ferry has not been used since it was built. After all, this Hanyu Mountain is remote, and no one will row here.
Qianqian stepped on the river to the bank, like an ordinary climber, carrying two jars of wine and climbing up the slate stairs.
The morning sun fell on her body, and it was already a little hot, but Qianqian was not tired at all.
"Xiao Ai! I'm here!"
After climbing to the end of the stone steps, Qianqian shouted to the depths of the tree-lined path, "Look what good things I brought you."
She shouted and walked inside.
There was no response from the tree-lined path, but Qianqian was also used to Xiao Ai's indifference.
She walked to the Wolf Temple with a smile, and saw the girl sitting under the eaves of the Wolf Temple with her eyes closed and cultivating.
"Wow! I haven't seen you for a few days, Xiao Ai, you seem to be beautiful again."
Qianqian put down the wine jar and said with a smile, "Come on, let my sister pinch her face. Your skin is so smooth and tender, so enviable... It would be great if the wolf god also helped me wash my muscles and cut my marrow."
The girl under the eaves calmly avoided Qianqian's hand and said, "You're already very good, you don't need to wash the tendons and cut the marrow. Also, what are you doing with the wine?"
Xiaoai looked at the two jars of wine that Qianqian was carrying, and was a little confused, "Do you want to drink?"
"Of course not," Qianqian hugged Xiao Ai with a smile, rubbed her face against her, and said, "Didn't you say it last time? The peach blossoms in your back mountain are very fragrant. I wanted to pick some to make peach blossom wine, so I brought them with me. Come here with two jars... Of course, I won't take your peach blossoms for nothing, and one of these jars is for you."
"Don't underestimate these two jars of wine. This is the fine wine that the priest grandfather has treasured for three hundred years. It is only weaker than the thousand-day drunkenness brewed by the holy lady... I have paid for it this time."
Qianqian boasted about the wine she brought, but Xiao Ai looked at her, but was silent for a while, and finally nodded slowly, "I can take you there, but I can't pick too much."
Qianqian immediately smiled, "Of course, of course, never pick too much. Just pick a little, a little bit."
Xiaoai's approval made Qianqian quite happy.
Since the rain last year, this Hanyu Mountain has rained once a month. The rain that fell from the robbery cloud contained abundant water spirit energy.
With the rainfall in the past few months, not only has the spiritual energy in the mountains gradually enriched, but even the vegetation in the mountains has been nourished.
Among them, the peach blossom forest in the back mountain seems to benefit the most.
The peach forest has never withered since the peach blossoms bloomed out of season in the middle of winter last year. The quiet and elegant fragrance of peach blossoms surrounds the mountains, making the main peak of Hanyu Mountain fragrant, as if you have entered a fairyland on earth by mistake.
According to common sense, the flowering period of peach blossoms is very short, and it will wither in about ten days.
But the peach blossoms in the back mountain have been in full bloom for four months, and there is still no sign of them wanting to wither. Such a strange peach blossom has long been noticed by Xiao Ai and Qianqian.
This is the first time Qianqian has seen such a strange peach blossom, so I want to taste the taste of peach blossom brewed with this kind of peach blossom.
Xiao Ai could not pass her request, so she had to agree.
And she is also curious about what kind of wine this peach blossom can make. If it tastes really good, maybe it can be dedicated to Lord Wolf God...
Thinking like this, Xiao Ai took Qianqian to the peach forest in the back mountain.
Because she realized the special nature of the peach forest, Xiao Ai had already built a wall to enclose the peach forest to prevent the wild beasts in the mountains from breaking in and destroying the peach forest.
Before stepping into the peach forest, the two had already smelled the quiet and elegant fragrance of flowers.
After they walked into the peach blossom forest, Qianqian was overjoyed by the bright purple and red they saw.
However, just as she was about to pick peach blossoms, out of the corner of her eyes, she suddenly saw a strange figure in the depths of the peach forest.
About the size of a ten-year-old child, with white hair all over his body, he is now standing on tiptoe and reaching out, as if trying to reach the peach blossoms blooming on the peach tree.
That is clearly...
"White Ape? What are you doing here?" Xiao Ai asked in confusion.
The girl's voice startled the white ape. It turned around quickly, and when it saw the two humans it knew behind it, the expression on its face was a little panic.
Xiao Ai took a few steps forward, looking confused, "You want to pick peach blossoms? What are you picking peach blossoms for?"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the white ape who had been in the Wolf Temple for many days jumped away in panic.
"Gee! Gee!"
As if the thief's actions were smashed, the white ape ran towards the depths of the peach forest in a panic. In the end, under the stunned gazes of Qianqian and Xiao Ai, the white ape who was panicking climbed the fence and turned over.
Vaguely, both Xiao Ai and Qianqian saw a handful of peach blossoms in Bai Yuan's hands.
Both of them were confused and confused.
"What is this monkey head... doing?" Xiao Ai's brows were furrowed tightly, her eyes were full of confusion.
Even if the stealing of peach blossoms was discovered, there is no need to be so afraid, right
Chapter 56
"I'll go take a look."
In the peach blossom forest, Xiao Ai said so, then left Qianqian and chased in the direction where the white ape disappeared.
However, after she left the peach forest, she could not see the trace of the white ape.
In the mountain forest in the morning, it was quiet and silent, and the white ape didn't even leave any footprints, and he didn't know where he went.
Xiao Ai searched for it in the mountains for a while, but still couldn't find it, so she had to return to the peach forest to accompany Qianqian to pick peach blossoms.
And not long after Xiao Ai returned to the peach forest, not far from the peach forest, the ground where the dead leaves were piled up suddenly and slowly raised a small piece. Then from the hole covered with dead leaves, a white ape quietly emerged.
It held a handful of peach blossoms tightly in its hands, and looked at Taolin not far away with worry and fear, and after confirming that the little girl was not chasing after it, it left here quietly.
The white ape's steps are light and light, running in the mountains without making any sound.
Soon, it left the main peak and dived into the more wild and primitive dense jungle behind the main peak.
In this dense and primitive jungle, beasts are entrenched and snakes and insects are rampant. Even the hunters in the aquatic village are often reluctant to go deep into this place to hunt because the terrain is too harsh.
But the white ape swiftly passed through the jungle and climbed the cliff. This primitive jungle, which is complicated and difficult for humans, is familiar to it like home.
Finally, the white ape arrived in a dark cave.
Neither Lu Heng nor Xiao Ai have been here. The entrance of the cave hangs above the cliff, and apart from the nimble monkeys in the mountain, no beast can come up.
As soon as the white ape climbed into the cave, there was a squeaking sound of ape in the not-so-big cave.
The monkeys in the cave all gathered around and looked curiously at the handful of peach blossoms in the hands of the white ape.
After the white ape angrily opened the group of monkeys in the way, he walked to the center of the monkey group. There, an old old monkey lay quietly, breathing like a gossamer.
"Gee! Gee!" Bai Yuan shouted excitedly at the old monkey with the peach blossom in his hand.
However, the old monkey could no longer answer it, and just lay there weakly, reluctantly opened one eye, and exhaled a heavy breath.
"Gee! Gee!"
The white ape shouted excitedly, no matter how the surrounding monkeys reacted, it ran to the old monkey, stuffed all the peach blossoms in the old monkey's mouth, and then shouted loudly, "Gee! Gee!"
The white ape can feel that this blooming peach blossom contains a powerful spirit of life. If these life energy can be eaten by old monkeys...
It stretched out two hands, grabbed the old monkey's thin arms that were already weak, and kept pouring the weak spiritual energy into the old monkey's body.
"Gee! Gee!"
Bai Yuan shouted loudly, trying to use his own spiritual energy to guide the old monkey to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as the girl taught it to practice.
However, the spiritual energy in its body is too weak, no matter how hard it tries, it cannot do what the girl did when she taught it to practice.
The weak old monkey was still lying there, his breath was like a gossamer, and there was no spiritual energy of heaven and earth entering the old monkey's body at all.
Even the peach blossom, which it had high hopes for, was reluctantly chewed and swallowed by the old monkey, but the situation did not improve.
