Chapter 54 Turtle Shell

"Finally arrived." Xiao Yu sat on the ground, panting, looking up at the cliff that could not be seen, and couldn't help but say, "It's so high, even if there are peach trees, you can't see it!"

Xiaoqiang floated out of the umbrella, looked at the towering cliff and said, "Brother Yu, this mountain is so high, will there be other monsters living inside?"

"Monster? It depends on what monster you are talking about. Ordinary monsters are like butterfly monsters. It may be possible, but as long as you practice for five hundred years, they have basically turned into human form and went to the world to practice! Some people are Taoist priests, some businessmen, and experience the joy of being a human being. I guess you will encounter them in the future."

After a little rest, Xiao Yu took out the talisman and prepared to call the mountain god. After all, it was so far away that it was impossible to go back like this. Even if it failed, it would have to give it a try.

After igniting the talisman, Xiao Yu circled around the river, trying to see if there were any treasures, but after turning, he didn't find anything! After all, people often come to this canyon, and even if there are treasures, they would have been picked up long ago.

"Master, why did you come here?" Just as Xiaoyu looked around, the mountain god mouse came out from somewhere.

Seeing the mountain god rat, Xiao Yu immediately told Caidian to himself that the news was told by Caidian, and then hurriedly asked, "Where do you know where that peach tree is?"

"The peach tree that was struck by thunder was told by Caidie?" the mouse asked lying on the ground.

"Yes, I want to make a peach wood sword, so I have to use lightning to strike the wood. Why, Caidie didn't tell you?"

"Caidie didn't say it, but the peach tree grew on the cliff and most people couldn't see it. Apart from her, I don't believe anyone else would find it." The mouse did not hide it, and then said, "It's just that the peach tree has been cultivated into a spirit body. Let him take out a piece of lightning to strike the wood. It's probably harder than killing him!"

Plant cultivation is more difficult than birds and animals. After experiencing the heavenly tribulation, they also cherish their lives more. Lightning strikes on wood have become the most precious thing in them. Most Taoists want to get it, so after experiencing the heavenly tribulation, plants will go to places where people are rarely visited to practice, and ordinary people cannot find it.

"I thought of this too. You can try it first. If it doesn't work, you're thinking of other solutions." Xiao Yu sat on the ground and said.

Xiao Yu also knew the importance of lightning strike wood to plant spirits. He originally thought that if the other party disagreed, he would kill it directly and seize the lightning strike wood. But now he saw that he would not even think about it unless he wanted Tengyun's ability.

Moreover, after the thunder tribulation, this spirit body is equivalent to having the qualifications to practice. In order to obtain the thunder strike wood, he directly killed the other party, which is contrary to the law of nature. Therefore, Xiao Yu would not do this under the last resort.

"Then I'll try it, but there's no hope." The mouse responded, turned around and ran out, and then merged into the mountain.

The mouse is a mountain god and can enter any mountain, so these rocks are like entering his own yard, without any difficulty! But this can only be limited to the scope of his own jurisdiction. If he leaves this mountain, he can only stare at him.

The mouse left, and Xiao Yu continued to explore treasures in the canyon, but this time he really discovered something. In a corner of the riverbed, Xiao Yu discovered a turtle shell. The turtle shell was not big, only the size of an adult's palm, but the turtle shell was golden yellow. Generally, the shell of the turtle was black. If it was a golden shell, it means that the turtle had lived for at least two hundred years.

The turtle shell is also useful for Taoist people, but most people use it for divination! It is to put the copper coins inside, shake it out, and check the arrangement of the copper coins to test the good and bad luck.

However, Xiao Yu knew that there was a kind of Taoist art in Maoshan called Tongling, which can be used as a medium to connect to the Xuanwu Emperor! Xuanwu is the general name of the seven constellations in the north. Taoism attaches importance to the worship of Douxing, called "Nandou imprisons the birth, Beidou imprisons the death of Beidou". From the day of reincarnation, people transition from Nandou to Beidou. The life and death of people are dominated by Beidou. Therefore, people pray for prolonging their lives and longevity, and they must worship Xuanwu Emperor.

Another use of the turtle shell is to practice magic weapons, which is actually the blessing of spiritual power. As long as the turtle shell is treated with a special method, then placed in a place with sufficient spiritual energy, and blessed with a spiritual array, the turtle shell will become a magic weapon, which has the function of exorcising evil spirits and avoiding disasters. It can also be placed at home, which means longevity.

"Hehe, if there is no lightning strike, it would be nice to get this thing." Xiao Yu smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and looked up the turtle shell several times before putting it on a big stone.

"Brother Yu, what's so funny about a tortoise shell?" Xiaoqiang floated out of the umbrella and asked curiously.

Xiao Yu smiled mysteriously, "This is not an ordinary turtle shell! A turtle that has lived for two hundred years, can his turtle shell be an ordinary thing?"

The turtle shell can appear here, and it is probably washed out of the cave. The cave is very deep. Although the villagers used to go to cool off, they really haven't looked in carefully! Because the villagers say that it is a dragon cave and there is a Dragon King living there. If it disturbs the Dragon King, the village will either have floods or droughts, so the cave remains mysterious to this day.

There are probably many turtles that are two hundred years old in the sea, but on land, they are basically rare now. Many Taoist turtle shells are used by turtle shells that are more than ten years or decades old, so the spiritual power blessing is just average.

After getting the turtle shell, Xiao Yu was in a good mood and searched carefully around him again, but this time he found nothing. At this moment, the mouse ran out of a crack in a stone.

Seeing the mouse empty-handed, Xiao Yu understood in his heart and immediately comforted him, "It's okay, at worst, you can go back and find a willow tree, and then look for it after the lightning strikes the tree."

The mouse ran to the river and drank a sip of water, then said, "It's not a failure! It's just that this peach tree has just suffered a thunder tribulation and is weak. Now he has fallen off the lightning-striking wood on his body, and he probably will die! So he said he will give him decades of cultivation."

"Decades? I guess I have become an old man!" Xiao Yu curled his lips and continued, "Forget it, let's talk about it later. This matter depends on opportunities, and I can't be anxious."

After saying that, Xiao Yu held the dried turtle shell and was about to walk back, but the mouse stopped saying "Master, don't worry, this peach tree spirit is indeed difficult, don't blame him! I am in charge of the mountains and forests, but I know that there is a rotten tree, and it is also a peach tree. However, the tree has been too long and many places have been eaten by insects. But you can try your luck to see if the tree heart is rotten. If the tree heart can be used, it is much better than this peach tree spirit."

"How big is the rotten wood? Where is it?" Xiao Yu asked hurriedly as soon as he heard it.

The mouse grabbed his ear and said, "It's quite big anyway, it's right in the wild boar hole on the mountain."

Children who grew up in the mountains basically know what wild boars are. The apple orchards in Xiao Yu's family often visit, so he is quite familiar with this thing. However, Xiao Yu has never heard of where the wild boar hole is mentioned by the mouse.

"Wild Boar Cave, why don't I know when I discovered this place?" Xiao Yu asked in confusion.

"Well, I actually said this wild boar hole. Because there are more than a dozen wild boars living in it, I called him the wild boar hole," the mouse explained.
