Volume 190 Under the Roots
Although it is not the time for popular science, looking at Song Zizhi's ordinary appearance, Nianhua feels that this matter has not yet reached the point of being out of control. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but the sentence 'they are hidden here' seems to be a good foreshadowing for Song Zizhi's next storytelling.
And Nianhua was also thinking to herself, so can she think that these two thousand-year-old acacia trees hugging each other actually have an unforgettable love story, not as those carpenters rumored, these two are the man-eating monsters.
In fact, no matter what the story about these two acacia trees is, it is clear that Nianhua has developed a strong interest in these two acacia trees. But unexpectedly, Song Zizhi didn't seem to plan to tell the story, but someone else came over to interject.
There are so many Taoist priests who came to this palace to offer medicine and 'passed'. So it was them who intervened, and coming to catch the monster seemed to have become their duty, although they also came voluntarily, but their wishful thinking can be played loudly, secretly thinking that if they really catch the monster, even if it is for the emperor to share their worries, then the reward for them will be only a lot more, so such a financial way, they will not be strange.
It's just that Nianhua looked at these Taoist priests and didn't dare to enter the palace, so he only set up the altar on the periphery and felt very funny. Let's put it this way, if she hadn't come to this world of cultivating immortals, and she wasn't a cultivator, she might still believe that the random practices of these Taoist priests should have such a little effect, but this layman looks at the excitement, and the insider looks at the doorway, isn't that what this time refers to? So she didn't laugh for no reason, but couldn't help but joke again, "Senior brother, here... Do you still need us? ”
And Song Zizhi didn't pay attention to these Taoist priests who were doing their own things at all, but said, "Go up the tree..."
Could it be that there is something wrong with the tree? Nianhua followed behind Song Zizhi, and they successively took their swords to the tree. The former was full of curiosity about the acacia tree, and had the leisure to look at its trunk and branches, while the latter immediately noticed that something was wrong.
"Under the tree...", it took less than a few minutes to go up and down, but Nianhua had to do it.
And she didn't find anything wrong with these two acacia trees at first, but only a little comparison found that the branches on the tree and under the tree were completely different, and the two trees were still a lush scene on the tree, but under the tree, she found that the trunk was almost dry, and the roots were all bare on the ground, but there was a feeling of being uprooted.
"It hurts... It hurts..."Nianhua suddenly heard a voice coming to her ears, she looked at Song Zizhi, believing that this Si should have heard it.
Song Zizhi was chanting at this time, but his right hand touched the surface of the tree trunk, "Quickly appear..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two acacia trees moved. Nianhua looked up at the acacia tree with its branches hugging each other, and it seemed to be separated at this moment, and then in front of the two trunks, a human form slowly emerged, until the human form walked out of the trunk.
"The people of the Immortal Gate... You're here to catch us? "The two acacia trees turned into a man and a woman, both of whom had blood on the corners of their mouths and seemed to be injured. As soon as the man saw Song Zizhi, he said defensively.
Could it be that they are the Acacia Dryad? Nianhua can confirm that their hair is green, and their skin is still the bark of a tree. Only she looked at Song Zizhi again, "I'm not here to arrest you." ”
"A cultivator like you is the best at saying one thing and doing another, and our husband and wife have not done any evil, but we have to take refuge here, but now... Let you find out. ”
"Back then, the two of you didn't participate in the Righteous Immortal and Demon War, and we in Yaohua Palace knew about this, so we let you go."
"Who has the final say between you immortals, my husband and wife don't know... But it doesn't matter anymore, it's just that we can't imagine that even after a thousand years, we can't escape after all..."These two Acacia Tree Demons are a couple, they have practiced for thousands of years, but they fled to the mortal palace because they didn't want to participate in the Immortal Demon War ten years ago, but they didn't expect that until one day, their roots began to rot for no reason, and with their demon magic, they couldn't heal it, so they had to turn into human form, temporarily abandon their true bodies, try to avoid another place, and then cultivate their original forms again.
But Song Zizhi blocked his way, and the dryad who turned into a man opened his claws when he saw this, "You want to regret it?" He was referring to letting them go, but now they were blocking his way.
"It's not easy for the spirit of flowers and plants to cultivate for a thousand years, so you just give up your true body?" Song Zizhi jumped to the root of the acacia tree and pointed his sword at it.
"What if you don't give up, what do you want to do?"
"Xianggong, let's go..."The voice of the dryad who turned into a woman was weak, and the age saw that its human form was not stable, which showed how much it affected her because the roots of her original form were rotten.
The dryad who turned into a man originally thought that it would be a big deal to fight with Song Zizhi, but because he saw that his wife was already losing cultivation, he had to stop and turn around to help his wife and prepare to leave.
It's just that at this time, those Taoist priests who were originally 'casting spells' on the periphery didn't know who was the leader, and they broke into this palace one after another. When they saw a man and a woman coming out of the collapsed palace, they immediately shouted, "This is the dryad, they have come out!" "Gotta catch them!"
For these Taoist priests, as tree demons who have practiced for thousands of years, of course, they know at a glance that they do not have any cultivation on them, so how can they be the opponents of this tree demon couple. But they were about to cross the catastrophe, and they were injured, so they didn't want to waste time here, so they thought about letting these Taoist priests live.
"This Dryad is so high that he can speak human language?"
"Bold monster, let you taste my ancestral trapped demon rope and demon collection talisman!"
"Look for death!" As soon as the tree demon who turned into a man roared, Nianhua secretly said, these Taoist priests are really killing themselves, but after all, human life is at stake, and she has to step forward to help these Taoist priests.
But she must not be as fast as Song Zi, but this Si is not merciful to this group of Taoist priests, although he cast a spell to prevent the mortal blow of the tree demon who turned into a man from hitting them, but he still threw these Taoist priests to the ground. The Taoist priests regarded Nianhua and Song Zizhi as accomplices of the tree demon, and they hurriedly left the palace.
Is this helping them? The Dryad and his wife looked at each other, but they didn't know what Song Zizhi's purpose was in doing this, "Why do you want to help us?" ”
"Because here..."
His roots? The Dryad, who had turned into a man, said, "My roots have rotted away, and they are of no use to you. ”
"I suspect that under your roots... There are authentics. ”
"Authentically?" (To be continued.) )
