As the year draws to a close, even in Weigang City in the south, the temperature begins to get colder, and people begin to wear sweaters and winter clothes. The recent strange weather changes in Weigang City have caused the people of Weigang to suffer. However, even during the Chinese New Year, there is no prosperous atmosphere in Weigang City. There are no fireworks and firecrackers. The buildings and companies are empty because of the New Year holidays. The shops on the street are closed and it looks deserted. On Junzhi Mountain, the grass and trees are lush and green, and there are several hills in a row. There is a wide and clear river surrounding it. The wide road winds around the mountains. Tall walls have been built outside, and barbed wire has been erected on them. Warning signs can be seen every few meters. There are cameras everywhere on the road and in the mountains. There are not only checkpoints, but also secret guards. The vehicles entering and leaving every day are also mysterious. In addition to the strict restrictions on the entry and exit of people, whether it is the things transported in or sent out, they are all labeled with extremely dangerous red signs, and they are absolutely not allowed to be opened or viewed. Tonight, the entire Junzhi Mountain was sealed off. There were even garrisons and a large number of vehicles stationed at Junzhi Mountain. The area was almost in a state of war readiness. "Hua La La!" As a strange mountain gust blew from the main peak, it blew along the peaks, valleys and jungles. Trees began to sway, and leaves fluttered in the sky, making a pleasant sound. A bright moon appeared in the sky. The mountain god vine rooted in the mountain on the cliff of the main peak of Junzhi Mountain began to change little by little. The vines released silver light, forming a ladder that spread toward the sky. White flower buds formed on the green leaves, and the fragrance attracted flocks of birds and beasts. The fish in the sea also came in groups, and they hit the cliffs with the shocking waves. However, this time was different from the last time. The groups of people below had already prepared and were waiting to harvest the fruits of the mountain god vine. There was no chance that the birds and beasts would get the advantage again. Zhou Yang and Lin Shu stood under the Mountain God Vine, looking up at the silver vine ladder connecting heaven and earth, and then withered and dissipated under the moonlight after bearing fruit, shrinking into the ground, waiting to bloom again nine months later. The ruby-like fruits were put into the all-metal box, but after counting them lightly, Zhou Yang and Lin Shu's faces all changed. Zhou Yang looked seriously at the person in white coat and mask in front of him: "What's the matter? Only nine?" The other party immediately explained: "All are here, not one is missing!" Lin Shu did not expect that there would be so many fewer. According to the results of the last time, there should be about thirty: "Shouldn't the number be twenty to forty every time?" Zhou Yang frowned: "Wait a minute, see what's going on at 001-1." At the same time, the Mountain God Vine deep in Wuyi Mountain also bloomed at the same time, but only eight spiritual root fruits were produced. In Antarctica, in the dark ice and snow, under the beautiful dreamy aurora and starry sky, you can see a scientific research base built in an ice valley. They are a research base jointly established by multiple countries, and are jointly carrying out a scientific research project called "God's Kingdom". The base is built around a huge ice crack. The dark ice crack is like an abyss, reaching underground. They have built elevators up and down along the ice crack, and can go to the depths of the ice crack at any time to observe the ice lake at a depth of a thousand meters below. There are vast and majestic fluorescent vines waving like the ocean, but every time you dive into the abyss ice lake, you are dancing with death. It is also extremely dangerous to anger those fluorescent vines, and every time they want to collect samples, they will pay a huge price, but once the samples are separated from the main body, they will dissipate directly, and nothing will be left. This is a kind of life that is completely different from the material life they imagine. It is closer to energy life, or even more magical-mythical concept life. The built base was flashing with light, and hundreds of researchers were busy fiddling with various equipment and instruments. At the same time, they tried their best to find out what kind of existence the "Kingdom of God" was and what the key factors were to get to the gate of the "Kingdom of God". "Woo~Woo~" A strange roar came from under the earth, as if there was a beast whimpering under the earth. The sound was low and strange, and even the ice surface began to shake and tremble. "Woo~" As the sound appeared again, the bright golden light in the ice rose to the sky. One by one, researchers wearing cold-proof clothes and soldiers holding guns rushed out of the base, staring at the scene in the ice crack in amazement. They only saw the golden light spreading from the frozen ground like water, and even the thorough light dyed the glacier under their feet golden. A pillar of light stretched to the sky. This scene was like a volcanic eruption in the earth, or the energy of the earth's core gushing out, shocking people. White or black men and women looked at the sky, their pupils lost everything, and they could only see the huge golden light column. "God! What happened under our feet?" A white female doctor held a stack of documents and looked at the ice under her feet in panic. The golden light penetrated the ice and stretched into the distance. More people looked out through the glass in the base, paying attention to the light column that illuminated the entire dark world and made the beautiful stars and aurora in the sky pale in comparison. "I need to know what happened?" "Why did this happen? Did someone go down again? Isn't it forbidden to go deep into the exploration without approval?" "No one went down? What's going on? Who stimulated it?" At this time, golden beads shot out from the light and fell in all directions like meteors. —————— Sanyang Temple of Huangyang Mountain—It is already afternoon, but the clouds on Huangyang Mountain have not yet dissipated. The clouds are entangled halfway up the mountain, covering the beautiful scenery on Huangyang Mountain, just like a beauty holding a pipa and half covering her face, which makes it more mysterious and makes people can't help but explore the secrets in the depths. Surrounded by the peach forest, even in winter, these peach trees are glowing with the color of life and full of peach blossoms, and the ancient Taoist temple is hidden in this sacred mountain. The life and everything in the temple seem to be isolated from the outside world. Many places here still maintain the ancient customs and styles. There are little Taoist priests carrying buckets and carrying water up the mountain from the Sanyang Lake in the back mountain. On the stairs, Taoist priests in Taoist robes practice boxing and martial arts. When they are tired, they lean lazily under the peach trees and take a rest while smelling the fragrance of peach blossoms. Groups of disciples meditate and chant in the main hall. With so many people chanting, they don't feel noisy, but make people feel quiet and at ease. What they recited was nothing else but the Yunhua Sutra of Sanyang Temple. Combined with visualization, although it cannot allow people without spiritual roots to practice, it can still gather their will and voice. After practicing the boxing of Sanyang Temple, every Taoist can be said to be a master, but only limited to the level of mortals. Zhou Yang took Lin Shu up the mountain again, observing everything in Sanyang Temple along the way. Under the welcome of the master of the temple, Taoist Qingyun, and several of his disciples, they stepped into the Taoist temple. Amid the curling burning sandalwood and the chanting of scriptures, Zhou Yang also lit a stick of incense for Chongyunzi, the founder of Sanyang Temple in the center of the hall, and stared at Chongyunzi for a long time without saying a word. Confusion, fear, and uneasiness emerged in his eyes, while Lin Shu's eyes were shocked and admired, and he recalled the scene of seeing the Taoist in white at the foot of Huangyang Mountain last time. Taoist Qingyun was full of piety and enthusiasm. Chongyunzi appeared again and again, and the power he showed each time, and his high and mighty attitude like a god or demon, all told him what the true avenue was, what the true longevity and immortality were. The different performances of the three people also represented the attitudes and emotions of the crowd towards this kind of immortal or demon-like existence. After sitting quietly in the quiet room of the side hall, drinking tea, and chatting for three times, Zhou Yang finally told his purpose. Zhou Yang looked at the calm face of Taoist Qingyun. He seemed to always imitate Chong Yunzi's posture and expression, as if in his eyes, that was the existence of immortals and Taoism, and everything was moving towards each other: "The spiritual root vine has borne fruit!" Taoist Qingyun nodded slightly: "Congratulations!" Zhou Yang clenched his fists and seemed a little excited: "But the spiritual root vine only produced nine fruits! Taoist priest, I wonder if you can help me solve this doubt, or if there is any record of the origin and existence of this spiritual root vine in the Taoist inheritance of Sanyang Temple, even if it is just a few words." Taoist Qingyun looked at the two of them, stroked his beard, closed his eyes and sat quietly for a long time: "Every peck and every drink has a fixed number!" "Thirty-nine is the extreme number! Twenty-seven spiritual root fruits in one season of flowering is already the limit!" "Junzhi Mountain, Antarctic Pole, if I'm not mistaken, there should be another place with spiritual root vines. They are originally one and the same, and come from the same source, so the number for each season has long been determined!" Taoist Qingyun opened his eyes and spoke slowly. Zhou Yang's face condensed. He didn't expect that there was news of a spiritual root vine in another place. Taoist Qingyun also guessed it, and Lin Shu's face flashed with a look of sudden enlightenment, as if the problem had been solved.The result was obtained. After coming down from the mountain, the two did not go back, but went to another place to meet another person. That person was the only person they could find in the country who had entered the mountain and sea world and returned alive.
