The Qingjiang Kingdom existed during the chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. During that period, people had already begun to use paper to record records, and even had rudimentary printing technology, so they were able to preserve a large number of historical documents and various books for later generations.
Because of this, it is not impossible to find the origin of the sacred tree. As long as it once existed, it will definitely leave something in history.
In the past half month, Yan Shouyi ordered his knowledgeable storytellers to work hard to find information about the sacred tree. It would be best to find out the background of the sacred tree clearly.
If the sacred tree can be prevented from continuing to expand its death energy, everyone will no longer have to be threatened by time.
It only took eight days for the sacred tree to swallow up the entire Daqing Mountain. Although the expansion slowed down after that, it showed no tendency to stop.
Countless scientists also rushed to Xichuan to conduct sampling surveys, but found nothing, because what they were facing was metaphysics that was completely contrary to science, and it was completely impossible to conduct research at the current scientific level.
Professional work must be done by professional people, so Yan Shouyi and others became the only hope to deal with the sacred tree.
Regarding the origin of the sacred tree, Yan Shouyi interrogated Wei Wuxin, but this useless disciple knew nothing about the details of the sacred tree.
The book Lin Zitong is studying was written by a scholar who lived in Xichuan at the end of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
The current situation was chaotic, but fortunately the place where he lived was not affected. After the war subsided, he began to travel around Xichuan. The books were all about the scholar's various experiences along the way.
Yan Shou looked at it carefully. Although there was no record about the sacred tree for the time being, the travel notes were quite interesting and he read them with great interest.
After looking at it for about a stick of incense, Yan Shouyi suddenly sat upright.
It is recorded in the book that the scholar wandered near a mountain called Daqing Mountain. Seeing the lush green mountain and the pleasant scenery, he planned to hire a guide from a nearby village to go into the mountain. Unexpectedly, the scholar asked all the people in the village, but there was no one. Dare to take him into the mountains.
The villagers know the situation of Daqingshan very well. It is said that there used to be a prosperous city in Daqingshan, but later the city was destroyed by the northern power. Now there are only ruins and countless innocent souls wandering in the mountain. It is very dangerous. The villagers We have already regarded it as a forbidden area, and no one dares to enter.
"Daqing Mountain...Daqing Mountain should be the same place. The scholar didn't ask much at the time and just jotted it down based on pronunciation."
Yan Shouyi perked up. This was the first time he had found information about Qingjiang Kingdom, and he quickly continued reading seriously.
The scholar was very curious about the disappeared country and asked a lot of information from the villagers.
According to villagers, some man-eating monsters often appear in Daqingshan. These monsters are ugly and look like giant ginseng. Although they have limbs and heads, they have no facial features. They move as fast as wild wolves and are afraid of fire.
Black miasma still emerges from time to time in Daqingshan. Any life that comes into contact with the miasma will be killed instantly, but the monsters in Daqingshan are not afraid of this black miasma.
It is worth mentioning that the scholar saw the true appearance of the monsters in Daqing Mountain at the hunter's house in the village. According to the scholar's description, the dead monsters were like rotten wood.
Later, because no villagers were willing to lead the way, the scholar finally failed to enter Daqingshan.
The story ends here. There is still no record about the sacred tree. It seems that at that time, Daqing Mountain had become a forbidden place for life. No one could enter, so no one knew about the sacred tree anymore.
However, Yan Shouyi still got some clues from the story.
"The monsters in the Daqing Mountains are probably tree spirits in nature, and they are not afraid of the death aura of the sacred tree..."
Yan Shou thought: If I use the corpses of those monsters to make a wooden puppet body, can I step into the current Daqing Mountain and go directly around the sacred tree to look for clues?
Just when he was about to further think about the possibility of this idea, Lin Zitong suddenly woke up with a frown on his face.
"Why did you wake up?"
Yan Shouyi immediately put down the book and gently stroked Lin Zitong's face.
Lin Zitong used her strength to sit up and said depressedly: "Your son kicked me again."
"How are you sure it was your brother who did it and not your sister?" Yan Shouyi was confused.
Lin Zitong slapped Yan Shouyi angrily: "It must be my brother, only boys can be so naughty."
Do you want to see who of us likes to do it more...
Yan Shouyi complained in his heart, then put his hand on Lin Zitong's belly pretending to be angry, and scolded: "Don't bully my wife anymore, or I will bully your mother too!"
Lin Zitong was immediately amused: "You can just stay here! Make trouble!"
Yan Shouyi chuckled, waved the ancient book in his hand, and said, "I have read this book for you. I have some clues, so you don't need to read it again."
"Did you find any clues?"
"It may not work yet. Let's wait until I verify it."
"Hmph, then I will definitely watch it again."
"Your task now is to have a good rest. Only the last half month is left before you can be liberated!"
Lin Zitong pouted: "I don't know if it's true that you'll be stupid for three years after being pregnant, but during this period of pregnancy, I felt like I couldn't help you much."
I recall that in the first few months of Lin Zitong's pregnancy, she shined in the Luotian Dajiao, advanced all the way to the top four, and became the idol of countless boys and girls.
But in recent battles, Lin Zitong could only raise her baby at home, which made her somewhat unhappy.
Yan Shouyi quickly took Lin Zitong's hand and comforted him: "Why didn't you help? You are the head of the Lushan Sect. The Lushan Sect is getting stronger now, and you were always there when dealing with the relationship between the two sects. I have worked hard behind the scenes, and now everyone in Xuanmen is united, and you have been helping me deal with my affairs without stopping. Without your help, I am afraid that I would have died suddenly from all kinds of things before I even waited for the day of the decisive battle with Jiang Wuya!"
"That's not the kind of help I want to do, you know." Lin Zitong said.
"What are you thinking...?"
"I hold the red umbrella, poke a bloody hole in the enemy's body, and then shake the soul-calling bell, attracting thousands of ghost kings to sweep across the army. Whoever dares to scold you, I will help you fight back. Whoever dares to hit you, I will help you fight back. !" The more Lin Zitong talked, the more excited she became, and she almost stood up and danced a little.
Yan Shouyi felt ashamed: "I finally understand. Fighting side by side is not what you want. You just want to protect me as a pretty boy."
"No, who made you my man!" Lin Zitong raised her chin, with a little pride on her face.
"Okay, okay, I'm the pretty boy, and you are the Queen!"
Yan Shou raised his hands to express surrender, and then suddenly a small bag of tips appeared out of thin air: "Hey, this is for you."
Lin Zitong took the kit in surprise: "What's in it?"
"The names I gave my children."
