Chapter 1036: The Peach Blossom Is Still (Part 2)
To be honest, before entering Beijing, Xu Changqing also considered finding the big peach tree transplanted to the capital to see if the spirituality of the big peach tree has been damaged for many years and whether it can restore its spirituality. However, even though he had considered the entire search process in advance, he speculated that there might be some troubles. He might even need to use the people with some abilities and backgrounds he met on the train, but he never thought that this matter would be so simple and smooth. He didn't need to take the initiative to find out the location of the big peach tree.
Since ancient times, for those practitioners who do not need to borrow national fortune to practice, the capital of a country is not a suitable place for cultivation. The effect of extraordinary powers such as national fortune, Taimiao, and the country will make any practitioner's strength suppressed very seriously when entering here, and even one out of ten is not left. Therefore, most practitioners who look for a place to practice will avoid a country's capital as much as possible, and even the capital of the prefecture will avoid it. If it is not necessary, they will not even approach these cities in normal times.
Back then, when Xu Changqing entered the capital, it was the end of the Qing Dynasty. The fate of the Qing Dynasty was almost equal to nothing, and the suppression force on the practitioners here almost disappeared, so his entry into the capital would not be affected.
However, the current situation is obviously different from the late Qing Dynasty. Now the fate of China is booming, and the mountains and rivers are stable and unshakable. In addition, the fundamental way of the country has extremely strong rejection of any extraordinary power, which makes Xu Changqing's magic power greatly weakened and suppressed it to only be a little better than ordinary Taoist priests. If Xu Changqing had not expected this situation and was ready, not only created some methods of leveraging power, but also deliberately transferred his magic power into his body and turned into flesh and blood power. Maybe he had completely lost his power to protect himself at this moment. Not to mention looking for the whereabouts of the big peach tree, it is unlikely that Chen Yingning, who wanted to recover from illness.
It was precisely because Xu Changqing knew very well how domineering and effective the suppression of extraordinary powers by the power of the state-controlled power in the capital that he could not help but wonder if he was too concerned about the whereabouts of the big peach tree, so he had an illusion. However, after he calmed down and felt it carefully and tried to connect with the breath of the big peach tree, he immediately received some responses and also passed the address of the Imperial Garden to Xu Changqing to know.
Xu Changqing sneaked into the Forbidden City, which was regarded as the forbidden place for cultivators at night, and came to this imperial garden. When he saw the big peach tree for the first time, all kinds of doubts in his heart were solved. He not only knew that the spirituality of the big peach tree was still well preserved. He also knew that the transplant of the big peach tree was very successful, and he also knew why the power of the country in the capital rejected all extraordinary powers, but still allowed the demonic energy of the big peach tree to coexist with it, and even took its power and spread to various places in the capital.
Xu Changqing didn't know how the big peach tree changed like this, because the big peach tree is now in a very delicate state, neither a spiritual god nor a monster, nor a monster, neither a thing that can be regarded as a country-controlled thing, but it is also related to the things that can be controlled by the country. Its foundation is connected with the dragon vein in the capital, and the monster body itself has traces of national fortune blessing.
It is precisely because of this delicate state that the big peach tree can spread its life aura to all parts of the capital like a root. It is not suppressed by the luck of the country in the capital, and its magic power can even exert ten thousand of its power in this state. In a certain aspect, it can be said to have become a god in the capital.
When Xu Changqing entered the capital, he did not deliberately suppress his power. Instead, he used the method he had prepared in advance to contact the power of the capital to find a bottom line of power that would not backfire. His move was naturally sensed by the big peach tree and contacted it.
When Xu Changqing left Taohua Mountain, the big peach tree had already had the wisdom of a child. It knew how to distinguish good and evil, and knew how to avoid good and bad luck. After so many years of incense offerings and blessings of the earth veins, its wisdom became more mature and was no different from ordinary people. During the process of being transplanted into Beijing, although its essence and wisdom were damaged, with the blessing of the national fortune and the nourishment of the dragon vein in the capital, its damage had long been restored to its original state.
However, on the surface, the big peach tree seems to be a blessing in disguise. It not only became a righteous god like a spiritual object in the country and a city guardian, but also achieved a leap-by-learning improvement with the blessing of national destiny and other forces. It is not bad at all compared to the natural monsters in the Kunlun Three Realms, but it is always theorem to rely on misfortunes and good fortune. The more you gain, the greater the hidden dangers.
For example, the current balance state of various forces in which the Big Peach Tree is in seems to be stable, but in fact it is a castle in the air. Once a force becomes stronger, this balance will be broken, and the Big Peach Tree will be the first to bear the brunt and become the first victim after the balance is broken.
In addition, its spiritual intelligence is also a problem. Because after the perennial accumulation of the Taohua Mountain vein, the spirituality of the Big Peach Tree only derives one spiritual intelligence. However, as it was transplanted to the dragon vein in the capital, it was subjected to various secular forces and the power of the country's fortune had been silted for thousands of years. The original spiritual intelligence was divided into two, forming a strange situation of one and two spirits. These two spiritual intelligences showed polarization, one was an old man who was still stable, and the other was a lively woman. Fortunately, the Big Peach Tree listened to the Taoist methods of the Nine-Rank Line all year round and had some experience in the fusion and retention methods. Even though these two spiritual intelligences were completely different and mutually exclusive, they were able to coexist under the conditioning of the fusion of the Nine-Rank Line and did not have any serious conflicts.
Among the elves and monsters from ancient times to the present, it is not uncommon for one spiritual nature to produce two kinds of spiritual intelligence, but this situation is without exception. The final result is either the two spiritual intelligences swallow each other, reject each other, and disintegrate themselves, or the continuous evolution of new spiritual intelligence until they completely exceed the limit that the natal spiritual nature can bear, and then completely become possessed and self-destructed. This is also one of the main reasons why the Big Peach Tree did not consider whether it was safe or not after realizing that Xu Changqing entered the capital.
The moment Xu Changqing saw the big peach tree, he easily saw its actual situation. Now the big peach tree can be said to be sitting on a crater that is about to erupt. Although it looks very calm on the surface, it has accumulated huge power below and is waiting for an opportunity to fully vent it. The big peach tree that happened to be blocked at the exit is the first to be affected.
The reason for all this is because the four old things that are going on outside. In addition to superstitious movement, the progress of this movement not only represents the strong improvement of the national fortune, but also represents the inevitable decline of the Shinto, which also affects the dragon vein of the capital. The dragon vein of the capital is the reverse scale of the country. Any slight change will affect the dragon vein in the world, and ultimately promote the national fortune, which will eventually improve the national fortune in a stronger posture. The various forces in the body of the Da Tao Tree are in this situation.
It is already difficult to maintain a balance state. Now it can barely control and bless the power of the country to increase through the dragon vein, demonic energy and divine power three forces to control and bless the power of the country to increase. However, this suppression is only temporary. It will not take long for the power of the country to break through the suppression as the national fortune rises, and finally clear all other powers in the body of the big peach tree, and even the spiritual intelligence of the big peach tree itself will be cleared out. By then, it will truly become a spiritual object that will protect the righteous god.
Although the situation of Da Peach Tree itself is somewhat in danger, it seems that it has been too deeply influenced by the Nine-Levels lineage, which has caused Da Peach Tree to ask for help from Xu Changqing. Instead, it is like a friend who has not seen him for many years and talks with each other about what has happened over the years. In the end, it is a match between piano and dance to celebrate today's reunion.
Xu Changqing felt novel at first. After all, he lived next to this big peach tree for many years and had a relationship with him, but he had never talked to him so realistically. In addition, he really wanted Chen Jiachong, the cultivation world and other things over the years, so he patiently chatted with him all night. But no matter how many words were, after a night of chatting, he had almost exhausted all of them. Xu Changqing originally planned to show off his flying colorful dance and reveal their actual situation. However, at this time, Jin Gushan broke in, disrupting Xu Changqing's consideration.
"This cunning guy!" But afterwards, Xu Changqing figured out again that the Jingu Mountain was probably put in by the big peach tree. Otherwise, the illusion maze formed by the big peach tree, even the peach forest illusion that walked out of the edge would not be able to do it. The big peach tree has always guessed Xu Changqing's thoughts, but it seemed that it had some plans, so it did not let Xu Changqing find out the situation immediately, so he could have more time to prepare or consider it.
"Jin Gushan." After hearing Xu Changqing's introduction, Jin Gushan also returned to the courtesy.
"I know you." Xu Changqing nodded, poured him a cup of tea, and then said, "You have been taking care of this imperial garden in the past few years. Although you are not taking care of me as a fellow Taoist, it has also taken some thought to take care of him, which has been of great help to him. I thank you for him. Let's treat these two cups of tea as a thank-you gift!"
After hearing Xu Changqing's words, Jin Gushan, who was just holding up the cup and preparing to drink another cup of tea, couldn't help but stop the movement in his hand and looked at Xu Changqing with incomprehension. After all, from what Xu Changqing said just now, it was a great kindness to take care of this peach tree in the past few years, but using two cups of tea as a thank-you gift would be a bit too ridiculous. The contrast between the two cups of tea makes people feel a little confused.
