The little flower swayed in the basin and didn't seem to care about Wordsworth's words. As always, it filters the natural force around and provides it to Zhao Mai. The latter carefully protect the flowerpot, prevent Wordsworth to grab.
"I don't have any evil thoughts about the realization tree. Just let it go." Wordsworth waved his hand, and the root of the tree swayed back and forth in the cave, almost hitting Zhao Mai's head.
"Be careful. I'm not like you. If I break my head, I'm finished." Zhao Mai simply sat down and lowered his height to avoid accidental injury.
"Sorry, I'm not used to being with another person. And I'm short, but the trees are tall, and I can't get used to it all the time. " Wordsworth said: "it's not really that much. I can't do without this mangrove. I can only rely on the homing crows to know what's going on outside. You know, they spend most of their time eating rotten food, and this part of the memory is particularly strong, which makes me sick all day. "
"Oh Don't talk about it. I'm sick of it. " Zhao Mai covered his mouth. "Back to the point, you said that behind me is the tree of understanding. How do you know?"
"The tree of realization was originally a bodhi tree. In ancient times, druids had no paper to record their experience. They worried about the loss of inheritance, so they used stones, tortoise shells and trees to record the Druid language. But the stone will be weathered, turtle shell will be corroded, only the evergreen trees survive. Survival is the most powerful force in the world, the only one that can conquer time. You should always be in awe of it. Later, there were druids who left their experience on the bodhi tree
"Druid itself is a word hidden in the way of nature, which can be partially understood by both animals and plants. So these experiences are gradually understood by the bodhi tree, and then there is the so-called realization tree. The existing insight tree is unique in that it can sum up the optimal state of the natural force from the experience of countless druids and continuously radiate to the surrounding environment. Under the tree, whether it's enlightenment or meditation, it's better than anywhere else. "
"I used to think that the tree of understanding was only the experience of Druids, and it did not represent the natural force. Although this is still the idea, we have to admit that the previous idea is too biased. Don't the Druids' experiences also come from the understanding of the natural force? How different is light from dust, water from earth? " Wordsworth continued with a sigh.
"The only thing in the world that can truly embody the natural force is the natural force itself. Only a mind like the sea can carry the volume of the sea. I absorb with this mangrove continuously, the result can only be more and more scattered, loaded in more, overflow more, and in the overflow process, part of me also disappeared. It's a mistake No, it's not perfect. Until we find a better way, no one can repeat the same mistake. "
"I can't leave the mangroves, but I know that the tree of realization is a bodhi tree, which can live with branches. I've been trying to get in touch with the infernal community, hoping for a branch of the tree of understanding. It can't be an ordinary branch, it must be the most core branch of the younger generation with the former human body understanding. But the realization tree is very important. It can't fall into the hands of outsiders, and I can't find a trusted Messenger, so I've been dragging it down. "
"The natural force transmitted my wish to the north, and now my wish has been fulfilled. I will record my experience in the tree, which contains the information of the whole swamp environment. My life experience is the limit of my ability. "
Zhao Mai looked at the flower in his hand, and his mouth didn't close for a long time because he was surprised. No wonder the expression of the fairy tutor Celine on the day of parting was so strange. It turned out that the stick was the branch of the realization tree. At that time, I thought the stick was useless except as a walking stick. Fortunately, I didn't throw it away. Originally, she said that the stick would grow into a forest staff after planting. Originally, she had this deep meaning.
If Zhao Mai had not used a lot of fertilizer, the tree would not have sprouted so quickly. It was intended to accept the baptism of the natural force and become a part of the environment of heaven and earth. As a result, because of his rapid growth, he spent most of his life (or "Shusheng") beside Zhao Mai. Under the absolute influence of his natural force, he changed from a natural tree to Zhao Mai's tree. If you let the Druids of Inferno know about this, I can't imagine how they would react
"I'll give it back to you in a moment. I won't hurt it at all." Wordsworth held out his hand.
Zhao Mai asked Shuhua to promise again and again before he handed out the flowerpot. As a result, as soon as the flowerpot left her hand, Xiaohua began to cry. At least Zhao Mai heard the cry clearly in his mind.
"Floret depends on you, but it needs to grow." The dwarf put the flowerpot in front of him and sat down on his knees. "Young man, I suggest you also go into meditation and establish communication with the natural force. When I talk with the tree, you can also learn together. If you want to continue to make progress, you have to learn a lot, the most important of which is the harmony between body and mind and the environment of heaven and earth. I've lost most of myself. Although I've taken a detour, I can't compare with other Druids in this aspect. "
"I believe that." Zhao Mai nodded: "you are equivalent to a fool who practices too much and ends up dispersing himself.""It's interesting to say, but not everyone can get to where I am now." Wordsworth raised a finger, put it on the leaf, and closed his eyes. "In short, ordinary Druids watch the cycle of the natural force and experience it. And my way is to plug in the cycle of the natural force, absorb, filter, store, and then understand in the body. The first method is more secure, but my method can cheat or inhale the force into the body, but the final result is not necessarily good, at least I haven't got through this road. The tree of understanding will build a bridge between you and me. I will tell it my experiences and lessons in Druids, and you will listen to them. Both methods belong to you, but one is an individual druid and the other is a group Druid. "
"What is the difference between an individual and a group?" Zhao Mai asked quickly.
Wordsworth smiles, but does not answer, he only said: "if you do not understand me, that is the whole truth, then do not tangle this sentence."
The crescent moon is in the sky, the stars are shining, and the north wind brings the message of winter. Under the heavy fog, mangroves reclaim their roots and give up more land. It should concentrate and accumulate strength tonight, so as to integrate its own will with the will of countless ancestors in the tree of understanding. Wordsworth knows that he has become integrated with trees. Unless the land is destroyed and life is extinct, he will live forever. He will not be able to complete the cycle of life and death, and can no longer establish a balance. This is the result of inserting the cycle and not getting away. He has accepted this fate, but the only thing he can't accept is loneliness. None of the goblins or human beings who came here can communicate with the natural force like him. Even this Druid apprentice is too young and ignorant to be a friend or confidant.
What's more, even if he becomes a friend and confidant? A hundred years later, I am still alive, and my friends and confidants have gone back to dust. Wordsworth thought and thought again and again, only the tree of understanding is the same as himself, only it can understand itself and understand itself forever.
Wordsworth also imagined that he would leave the tree and find a place in the mangrove to accompany him forever. But in that case, the two kinds of trees are likely to conflict, and the mangroves that occupy the right place may kill and devour the tree. Wordsworth didn't like the result and didn't dare to take the risk. He went wrong when he was young and frivolous, but it doesn't mean that he is willing to prove himself right by destroying others. He preferred to integrate his knowledge into the tree of understanding, just like countless Druids.
Zhao Mai didn't know these thoughts in Shuhua's heart. He sat beside the flower in a daze, stopped crying, took a deep breath, and communicated with the natural force, just as he had done many times before.
