Tian Xiaoding entered the Qiankun Pot and asked the Bagua Weapon Spirit, and was finally able to confirm that the yellow stone he got from the underground tomb in Xundao Mountain was the earth attribute stone among the five-color sacred stones.
It turns out that when Nuwa was mending the sky, the five-colored sacred stones she refined were also divided into five elements. Among them, the earth attribute stone is yellow, the wood attribute stone is green, the metal attribute stone is gold, the fire attribute stone is red, and the water attribute stone is white.
The next time Xiao Ding's Qiankun Pot is upgraded, he needs to gather five colored sacred stones with five attributes, as well as Yin and Yang Qi stones. At present, he already possesses the Diyin Stone, one of the two Qi Stones of Yin and Yang, and the earth-attribute divine stone he just obtained.
It seems that it is not an easy task to collect all these stones.
This mainly depends on luck. Of course, strength is also one aspect. If you are not strong enough, even if you are lucky enough to encounter it, you will not be able to get it, which will make you even more upset.
The strength mentioned here does not simply refer to the value of force. In fact, a person's overall strength mainly includes two major aspects: intelligence and force. Compared with force value, the level of intelligence is equally important.
The reason why Xiao Ding has survived to this day and still has a safe life, and he often gets various benefits by chance, is extremely important to his resourcefulness. Of course, there is also a lot of luck involved. But the same sentence remains, even if there is luck, it still needs to be supported by overall strength, and both are indispensable.
For example, this time I got the earth attribute divine stone. Ou Muyun didn't know the direction and came to Xundao City by mistake, and then learned the information about the five-color sacred stone in the city. This was due to luck; while Xiao Ding secretly followed the four big men one after another and found the ancient tomb. This was due to his cleverness. That's why; after finding the ancient tomb, Xiaoding can go underground alone and escape unharmed when encountering a group of zombies. This is due to his force value.
From getting the information to getting the stone, every link is indispensable. If any link is not done properly, it will be difficult to obtain the divine stone.
Yue Yurou's injuries, except for her Dantian, which has not recovered, have been completely healed. The world inside the pot was too monotonous, and Yue Yurou couldn't practice, so she wanted Xiaoding to take her out of the world inside the pot.
So, after Xiao Ding took Tian Xiao'e and Ou Muyun to see the world inside the pot, he took the three of them and left the Qiankun Pot.
In the next few days, Xiao Ding and the others continued to fly to Tianyao Village on the Feiyun Shuttle.
This time, there were no other accidents on the road.
After a total of about ten days, Xiao Ding and the four finally returned to Tianyao Village.
It's almost the end of the year, and everyone in Tianyao Village is busy preparing new year's goods.
Senior sister Cheng Yaowei, Li Tianliang, Deng Feng, Shan Ting and others were very happy to see Xiao Ding and his party returning.
Xiao Ding introduced everyone to each other one by one.
The senior sister looked at Tian Xiao'e, then at Xiao Ding, and then joked: "Are you two brothers and sisters? Why don't they look alike to me, but your sister looks a bit like junior sister Lanlan."
When Xiao Ding heard this, he immediately thought of Su Lanlan and Tang Yunzhi who had passed away, and his mood immediately darkened.
In fact, Tian Xiaoding and Tian Xiaoe looked somewhat similar at first. The Tian family members are all tall. It goes without saying that Xiao Ding is tall and tall, and Tian Xiao'e is also very tall when she becomes an adult, almost as tall as Ou Muyun.
Moreover, because the Tian family was born in a rural mountain village and worked outdoors for a long time, their skin was darker. Although Xiao Ding traveled to the Tian family, he was a soldier in the army. He had been training outdoors for a long time, and his skin was also somewhat dark.
The senior sister said that Xiao Ding and Xiao'e don't look alike. In fact, it's because Tian Xiao'e has been drinking tea made from Danting flowers for a long time in Danting Mountain in the past two years. This has greatly improved her skin and has become fairer. It's not as tender as it was before.
The senior sister said that Xiao'e and Su Lanlan were similar, which was true. Xiao Ding also recognized Su Lanlan as his adopted sister because Su Lanlan and Tian Xiao'e looked very similar.
Thinking of Su Lanlan and Tang Yunzhi who had passed away, and thinking that the third day of the first lunar month was Erniu's memorial day, Xiao Ding's mood instantly dropped.
Then, he suddenly thought that if he waited until the third day of the new year to pay homage to Erniu, it would not only affect his mood during the New Year, but also affect the mood of other people in the village during the New Year.
Seeing that there were only a few days left before the Chinese New Year, he thought that he might as well come to pay homage to Erniu on New Year's Eve this year, along with Su Lanlan and Tang Yunzhi.
It's just a few days ahead of schedule, not that far behind. Anyway, people on earth also have similar customs. Before the New Year, they burn paper for their deceased relatives to commemorate them.
So, Xiao Ding asked Li Tianliang to buy a lot of sacrificial supplies such as incense, candles, paper horses and so on when he went out for shopping.
Then, on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Xiaoding took out Erniu's coffin from the jade pendant space in an empty room in Tianyao Village, placed it in the middle of the room, and placed it on both sides of Erniu's coffin. The tablets of Su Lanlan and Tang Yunzhi were placed.
Moreover, he also placed incense tables, incense burners, offerings and other items in front of Erniu's coffin and the tablets of Su Lanlan and Tang Yunzhi. At the same time, paper ash basins were also placed for burning paper money.
Xiaoding was dressed in white, lit incense for the three of them, and after burning some paper money, he came to Erniu's coffin as he did in previous years, stretched out his hand to push open the coffin lid, and took a look at Erniu lying quietly in the coffin. , recalling the scenes when the two of them got along day and night in the past, I couldn't help but shed tears of sadness again.
He recalled in his heart the method of resurrection of the dead that Master Chang Ling once told him when he was at the Immortal Medicine Sect. He couldn't help but sigh and said silently: "Er Niu, although I already know the method of resurrection of the dead, but I don't know when. He Yue was able to find all the main ingredients for refining Yang Huan Dan. However, Erniu, don’t worry, I will definitely try my best to find those main ingredients. Even if it takes my whole life, it will cost me my life. , I must also resurrect you!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Ding's mind suddenly came to a few lyrics that he had heard before traveling through ancient times: "I am crazy about you in this life, and this love is unparalleled in the world! The shadow of the sword and the ripples of the water are just the past. , is the past..."
Yes, for the one you love, so what if I am crazy about you once in this life?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ding became more determined to resurrect Er Niu.
He put the lid back on the coffin, and then came to Su Lanlan's memorial tablet. He looked at the three words on the tablet for a long time, and then murmured: "Lan Lan, I'm sorry, Brother Ding failed to take good care of you." , and I asked you to take a slap for me. Unfortunately, you are not as lucky as Yurou. Although she lost her cultivation, her life was saved. But you..."
As he spoke, Xiao Ding's blurred tearful eyes seemed to see the obedient figure of Su Lanlan in the past again.
Su Lanlan had always been well-behaved and never asked Xiao Ding for anything. She would listen to whatever Xiao Ding told her. She has 100% trust in Xiao Ding and has never doubted Xiao Ding.
This is mainly because when she and Xiao Ding met for the first time in the sand bandits' den, Xiao Ding showed extraordinary means to save her, and then took her through the desert and Gobi together.
Before meeting Xiao Ding, she was lonely and bullied. During those days with Xiao Ding, she felt an extremely strong sense of security, which made her extremely dependent on Xiao Ding. In her heart, she had already regarded Xiao Ding as the person closest to her. Therefore, she traveled all the way from the Western Regions, across thousands of miles of desert, and walked for more than half a year to find Xiao Ding in the Song Dynasty.
Xiao Ding recognized Su Lanlan as his adopted sister, but in his heart he treated her as his biological sister. He felt sorry for this foster sister who was weak and a bit silly. He pitied her past and thought that he would take good care of this girl in the future.
However, people are not as good as God. Who would have thought that this girl who made him feel so distressed would be slapped by the Yuanying monk because of him. From then on, the beauty disappeared and the yin and yang were separated.
Xiao Ding looked at Su Lanlan's tablet and felt sad for a long time, then he turned to the other side of Tang Yunzhi's tablet.
Picking up the incense on the incense table, he put another stick of incense on Tang Yunzhi. Watching the smoke slowly rising from the top of the incense, he seemed to see the unruly and willful Tang Yunzhi again.
He remembered that when he first met Tang Yunzhi, he was called a "stinky hooligan" by Tang Yunzhi.
It can be seen how unruly Tang Yunzhi was at that time.
Later, Tang Yunzhi's calf was broken by a bandit. He rescued Tang Yunzhi back home and helped her heal her injuries. From this, the two began to interact.
After that, both of them got to know each other's personality and gradually became better friends. Even with the deepening of daily contact, coupled with the fact that Tang Yunzhi was young and had a new love interest, she, like Yue Yurou and other Xiao Ding's confidants, gradually fell in love with Xiao Ding.
But Xiao Ding was like a piece of wood, always turning a blind eye to them. This filled Tang Yunzhi's heart with regret, and until her death, she still regretted it and could not let it go.
Xiao Ding picked up a bunch of paper money and put it in the paper ash basin in front of Tang Yunzhi's memorial tablet and lit it. He muttered silently: "Yunzhi, I'm sorry, I couldn't save you. It's my fault. I shouldn't have left you alone in Liutai Mountain. If I had kept you by my side, maybe things wouldn't be like this later. It looks like..."
Speaking of this, Xiao Ding seemed to hear the Shu ballad sung by Tang Yunzhi again: "The lonely night is like a hooked moon; a curtain of dreams, ten miles of lingering snow. When spring comes, flowers come first, and the rain and falling swallows carry them together; the road is long. The person who is far away has not returned, and the note in front of the case is filled with lovesickness and blood; the sky is not old, and love is hard to break..."
