A person who can reveal such a look must be intelligent. The man and the crane made eye contact. Lu Liangsheng walked over slowly and stood in front of the burning rock in the scorching heat. While bowing to the crane, he was also looking at it carefully. It had a single red leg, green feathers with red dots, a long white beak that was wide, long and pointed, and flashes of fire could be seen from the top of the crane from time to time.
"I am Lu Liangsheng from Qixia Mountain."
On the rock, Bifang didn't move, just stared at Lu Liangsheng.
The hostility was quite strong, but the scholar did not change much on the surface. He thought about the countermeasures in his mind, "Are you going to find the hen again?" After thinking for a while, he put it out of his mind. The chicken would definitely not stand a chance against the crane.
However, when you encounter someone with this kind of attitude, the only thing you can do is to let the other person put down their attitude first.
"The Strategies of the Strategies" says: To lower their defenses, you must first attack their strengths. "
In a moment, his mind flashed with the record about Bifang in Shanhai Tuzhi. He lowered his head to think about it, and suddenly laughed. He waved his sleeves towards the ground, swept away the dirt and pebbles, and sat down casually. The ground felt hot.
'Hiss... a little hot.'
Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly, then relaxed and continued laughing.
"Hahaha… "
Bifang on the rock tilted his head, and looked at the laughing person on the ground with a gloomy look, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Over there, Lu Liangsheng stopped laughing, and as if he was chatting with someone, he rested his hand on his bent knees.
"I am rude. Feeling the flames around me, I suddenly remembered something I did when I was a child... My mother had an argument with someone. I was young and ignorant, so I ran to the back of the family's house and wanted to vent my anger on her. I set the firewood pile on fire. It was a hot summer day, so the fire jumped up high. Fortunately, we were in a thatched house in the mountain village and we could get out easily. Fortunately, no one was killed. At that time, my parents punished me to kneel in the main hall for a day and a night without even eating. My parents were so tired that they had to rebuild the house for someone else."
Li
On the rock, the one-legged crane tilted its neck and blinked its eyes, as if it was interested, but then it looked gloomy again and continued to stand there motionless.
'This Bifang is a bit difficult to deal with...'
Lu Liangsheng tapped his knees quietly with his fingertips, thinking of the scene when his master persuaded him to go to the county government office. He couldn't help laughing, feeling as if he was coaxing a child.
Then he continued:
"Although I made a mistake at that time, I feel that I was naive when I was young and just wanted to vent my mother's anger. My original intention was naturally good, but I used the wrong method. Once I made a mistake, it was magnified and covered up the good side of me. It was too biased. If not for this, I might have achieved success and fame."
Bifang jumped on one foot on the spot and moved its wings.
Below, Lu Liangsheng saw it move and was delighted, thinking that you really persuaded it. Seeing the emotions revealed on Bifang, the scholar showed regret on his face.
"Although fire is a disaster, it also helps to prolong life. The smoke from cooking in thousands of homes is the result of fire. If it weren't for the big fire and the punishment from my parents, I wouldn't have understood it clearly. Unfortunately, there are still many people who use fire but don't know its benefits. Once there is a fire, they cry and curse loudly..."
Having said this, Lu Liangsheng stopped talking. In the silence, not far away from him, there was a slight "pop" sound, and a pair of long red legs appeared in his peripheral vision.
li~~
A soft chirp sounded beside the scholar's ear. When he raised his head, the Bifang bird jumped over, spread one of its wings, and covered Lu Liangsheng's back. The front of its wings gently patted his shoulders a few times. There was a hint of understanding in the bird's eyes.
The man and the crane lay side by side, looking at the flames burning around them for a long time. Then Bifang separated, gave a loud cry, and turned its wings into flames and rushed into the sky, as if burning.
Cry!
The crane let out a long cry, and with a huge flame, it changed direction and pounced towards Lu Liangsheng below.
The rolling heat wave hit his face, and Lu Liangsheng instinctively raised his sleeves to cover himself. The next moment, the fire wave penetrated into his body, and the surrounding heat disappeared in an instant.
"Master... that method is really useful..."
Lu Liangsheng touched his chest and felt a hot breath swirling inside, knowing that this was Bifang's approval.
'Unfortunately, these are just a few remnants of souls left in "Boundless Mountains and Seas", not complete. Forget it, the fire in my heart has already been formed, so I shouldn't force it too much.'
As for the last "earth", Lu Liangsheng was speechless. Above the lush green forest, it was like a prone rhinoceros on a mountain. It turned over lazily, causing a series of earthquake-like movements, but it was too lazy to even open its eyes and just compromised.
If you think carefully about the description in the first book "Shan Hai Tu Zhi", it is not difficult to understand.
"…Si Xi is quiet and motionless, and has great wisdom and enlightenment. Could it be that after seeing that the four people in front of him have recognized me, he is too lazy to make any effort?"
The strange beasts corresponding to the five elements have been created, so there is no need to stay here any longer.
He closed his eyes and gathered his consciousness.
…
The cool mountain breeze caressed his face. In the middle of the fluttering five-pointed banner, Lu Liangsheng slowly opened his eyes. With the help of the magic circle maintained at this time, the five beast tattoos on his back gradually changed. On the ink-colored painting, rays of magic light appeared and extended and connected with each other in the order of gold, wood, water and fire, forming a smaller divine formation.
Feeling a slight stinging pain, Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly, and with all his energy and spirit, he opened his lips slightly and squeezed out a sound.
"Edict!"
The magical light from the five strange beast patterns penetrated the skin and flesh, passed through the flowing blood vessels and contracted muscles and meridians, and suddenly turned into five streams of air with different colors, spreading to the five internal organs in the body and mixing with them, giving them vigorous life.
Lu Liangsheng, who was sitting in the middle of the magic circle, was extremely conscious, but he could not move at all. He was in a trance again and saw the illusory world.
'Five Elements Transformed into Qi!'
A thought in mind.
The nebula, which had originally faded and decayed, gradually lost its colorful colors representing the five internal organs, and revolved around a newborn baby in the thin film of light in the middle, and the mysterious word "Chi" pattern was brought up again.
"The Right Path of Heaven and Earth—"
Lu Liangsheng made a spell with his palms as he sat cross-legged, and a spiritual beam shone out from his forehead. Almost at the same time, five large banners were blown down by a gust of wind. In the wild shaking of the forest, Sun Yingxian's Taoist robe fluttered, and he was blown by the wind with his face covered, and he stumbled towards the fence and wall.
Zhu Ganglie was huge in stature, but he stood steadily, staring with bulging eyes at the scholar sitting cross-legged in the magic circle who was slowly floating up. The spiritual light that shot out from his brows converged, and he descended to the ground again and stood up straight.
"Lu Liangsheng, have you recovered your cultivation?"
The Taoist who brushed away the vine leaves on his face and Qiyou who was sitting on the swing also ran over and looked over expectantly.
Over there, the scholar, his robe and hair fluttering, waved his sleeves, and the thatched cottage, which was originally covered with lush branches and vines, "clicked" and visibly returned to its original appearance.
“Recovered.”
Lu Liangsheng turned around, waved his hand, and his robe flew up from the ground and was put on himself.
An old pine tree on the lonely cliff swayed gently, and dappled sunlight fell on the handsome face with flying hair. The scholar looked at the Taoist and Zhu Ganglie, folded his hands, and bowed to express his gratitude.
"This bow is to thank you for your hard work for me."
