The wood-like body, I believe in my own eyes, the old woman's body is by no means simple, it doesn't look like a normal human body.

The old woman slowly stood up from the chair with her body propped up, and under the yin qi, she could clearly see that under the old woman's black robe were a pair of legs like rotten wood, and behind the broken black cloth were rotten and withered broken wood.

I hadn't seen her stand up before, but the first time I saw her, it was a huge shock to me.

"You can be my best servant, and I will give you another chance, be my servant, and I will give you eternal life. ”

She stretched out her hand, and the dry hands were also changing, forming strange folds on the surface. Then the layers shattered, and a strange crack slowly emerged from the very center, and then the outer skin fell off, and after falling to the ground, it turned into a scattered black lumpy object, and if you looked closely, it was clearly the broken bark.

"Is this what you call eternal life, into a tree?"

I sneered.

"The body doesn't matter, whether it's a tree or an animal, the human body is just skin. As long as the soul exists, no matter what it looks like, it will be eternal life!"

As she spoke, she gently reached out and took off the hood she was wearing on her head, and in the faint light she saw a face that was already full of cracks. I think that my knife just now is not without effect, on the contrary, it should be said that the effect is outstanding, taking away a lot of her so-called vitality, which is like a tree molting, in order to survive in winter, the leaves will turn yellow and fall off, and more vitality is used to protect the trunk and roots of the tree. It's a plant's self-preservation response, and my knife should have killed the old woman, but she's now in a strange body, like a tree. The body sps up its metabolism and constantly peels off the old bark, eventually growing new bark.

"I've heard that in ancient times there were some old witches who developed some strange methods in order to pursue so-called immortality. They believe that the life of animals is too short, even if it is a long-lived animal like a turtle, but there are still too few who really live for a hundred years and thousands of years. But on the other hand, trees, many of which live for hundreds or even thousands of years. Therefore, these old witches began to look for trees that could carry human souls, and decided to transfer their souls into these trees in exchange for immortality. At the time, many people thought this method was a fantasy, but in the end, someone succeeded. They found that a tree that grew in a strange black mire, always looking like it was about to decay, could actually hold the soul of a person. As a result, a large number of old witches began to transfer their spirits into this kind of tree. But there is no record of it, and to this day, there is not a single instance in the circle that has managed to survive for hundreds of years by relying on this method. But I think I saw a living specimen today!"

I looked at the old woman in front of me, and she fit the rumors I said.

A Thai sorcerer apprentice who had been smuggled into China hundreds of years ago learned about the spell of this method by some chance, and then transferred his soul into this strange plant, and eventually survived.

"Dusty wood. The old woman picked up the broken pieces of wood on the ground and said, "You are right, this is how I can survive, this kind of wood is called Dusty Yin Wood." ”

I immediately began to search for information about Dusty, and it seemed to be mentioned in "Tales of the Strange Tales of the Mountains", and after a moment of silence, I finally remembered it. The place where the dust yin wood is mentioned in "Mountain Monster Talk" is not a special article about the dust yin wood, but it is mentioned among the grass and tree spirits. Dust Yin Wood is also known as ghost wood, because generally the place where this kind of tree grows is the junction of Yin and Yang, so many ancient masters can freely enter and exit the Yin and Yang worlds, and they will find Dust Yin Wood, and near the Dust Yin Wood is the passage into the underworld. This kind of wood lives by absorbing souls, they absorb souls and convert souls into nutrients and store them in the body, because they are trees, they metabolize very slowly, and often devour a soul can live for more than ten years. And it was also said in "Strange Tales of the Mountains" that this kind of wood is a type that is relatively easy to become refined.

When I think about it, many things seem to make sense. First of all, the Dust Wood absorbs spirits. Therefore, the old woman's soul left the body and was absorbed by the dust yin wood, but before it was transformed into nutrients, the old woman used other souls instead of her own soul to send to the dust yin wood to absorb. Each absorption is equivalent to ten more years of life. As long as she keeps devouring her soul, she can continue to "live", and it is precisely because the Dust Yin Wood itself grows at the junction of Yin and Yang that when this old woman touches me, I can feel the breath of the underworld through the Dust Yin Wood, and thus hallucinate.

Therefore, this is the so-called immortality technique of the old woman, but in fact, it is simply exchanging other people's lives for their own lives.

"If a good person doesn't do it, he has to be a demon who doesn't look like a demon, and a ghost doesn't look like a ghost. ”

I sneered coldly.

"It seems that you really don't understand what I said, the body is the skin, and the soul is eternal. Isn't it much better than a human body to protect me from eternal life?"

"I won't become this virtuous like you, if you want to kill me, you will do it. Lao Tzu is not afraid of you. ”

As he spoke, his eyes aimed at the Tushan knife on the ground, and as soon as the words fell, he immediately took action, and one rolled on the spot and fell next to the Tushan knife, reached out and grabbed the handle of the Tushan knife, and raised his hand to stab the old woman's body. But this time, my routine was seen through in advance, and before the knife could penetrate the old woman's body, she grabbed it with her hand, and a force stronger than me dragged me up from the ground.

"!"

I cursed in my mouth, but I heard a mournful sound from my wrist, and my whole body was slowly lifted into the air from the ground by the old woman, and the completely wooden arm had inhuman strange power.

"I won't give you another chance, kill you, devour your soul, and make up for my loss. ”

The monster's hands tugged at me, slowly tearing apart my body, and the pain was severe, but I remained calm because of the reversal of luck. The current situation is too passive, and the sneak attack plan just now is still not thorough enough, but there is really not much time left for me. This old woman wants to tear me in half. I'm definitely not as good as it is, but is there any chance right now?

After all, "Wudang Five Elements Gong" is not a god fight, and it is impossible for me to become a fat man, but it is precisely because "Wudang Five Elements Gong" is not a god fight, so I have a chance! The strongest part of this set of exercises is not to make myself a special wrestler, but to control the five elements. Dusty wood is also wood, and it is in the middle of the wood. If I can control the power of Jin Xing and use Jin Kemu, it will be easy to deal with this old woman.

But can it be done?

I don't have confidence, but I still have to give it a try! I knocked on the old woman's wrist with my backhand, and this sudden thing made the old woman slightly startled. Then concentrate your mind and start controlling the qi in your body.

The time to reverse my luck is almost at the limit, and if I can't control Jin Xing in this last time and create a chance for me to survive, I will definitely die.

The chance of life and death is at this moment!

Anyway, Lao Tzu can't survive, he used four times to reverse his luck, and at most he will live for a few more months, both horizontally and vertically, and he won't lose a fight!

The breath was all deposited in my head, and it didn't respond to my movements at first, but maybe it was the body itself that felt the threat of death, or maybe the breath was more smoothly regulated after reversing my luck. I can't walk my whole body for a week, but I can still adjust my breath to my wrists.

A faint yellow light began to emerge from the palm of her hand, and the old woman seemed to feel that something was wrong, and she was about to exert her strength, when suddenly her wrist began to shatter, and the dust of the wood was shattered in large pieces, as if it had been cut!

"How so?"

The old woman retreated in surprise, and I fell to the ground because of it, but I didn't dare to stay longer, so I picked up the Tushan knife on the ground and rushed at the old woman again, this time I was going to stick the knife into her head!

Almost all human souls are hidden in the brain, that is, in the heavenly spirit, it is useless to kill the old woman and pierce her body, the only feasible way is to destroy her soul!"
