Chapter 45: Tree Species

Qin Qian's walking speed was very fast, and there were many people on the street, so Ling Gu felt that he would not be exposed, so he followed casually. As a result, within a minute, Qin Qian suddenly turned around. Ling Gu hurriedly hid in the alley next to him and hid tightly.

"Why are you here?" Ling Gu heard Qin Qian raise his voice and ask.

Ling Gu was strange, but as soon as he looked up, he saw Boyan standing straight at the mouth of the alley, turning his head to look at him.

Ling Gu: "......"

- Forget that there is a tail behind me that does not speak.

This kung fu, Qin Qian had already walked over and looked at Ling Gu. Seeing Ling Gu's appearance, Qin Qian snorted and laughed: "Who got you this bag?" ”

Ling Gu touched his nose and walked out, feeling that he was really stupid just now, but he himself would not admit it, so he changed the topic and asked, "Who are those girls?" ”

"The priest of the temple." Qin Qian was also curious: "You were following us just now?" ”

Ling Gu shook his head in surprise: "Why do you think so?" ”

"......" Qin Qian was stunned by Ling Gu's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense.

Ling Gu regained his serious expression and asked, "What is the matter with the temple looking for you?" ”

Qin Qian: "The cause of Ma Jihao's death is probably known." Priest Bright Moon wants me to do me a favor. ”

Ling Gu immediately took a step forward: "Such a big event, what are you waiting for, let's go." ”

Qin Qian: "......"

――This personality that doesn't look like a big deal has really not changed for 10,000 years.

This was Ling Gu's first visit to the temple. The building of the temple has a bit of a modern feeling, the whole body is made of white bricks and stones, but the roof is a flying eaves and tiles, and the corners of the eaves are still hanging with soul bells.

There are dozens of steps in front of the temple, and when you go up, there is a large hall with many futons and low tables, which is probably the place where the priests 'worship'. However, there were no gods enshrined in it - Ling Gu thought that maybe there was a statue of Bai Yu or something. οΌˆβ€¦β€¦ οΌ‰

Skirting the main hall outside, through a small cloister, and in front of and behind a large door, the priest who led the way stopped, bowed them slightly, and left.

Qin Qian took the lead in pushing the door in, and there was another step in the door, and the floor of this room was raised by at least thirty centimeters, and it was all wooden floors.

Ling Gu followed in, and then his eyes straightened - in the center of the hall, a large tree stood proudly, its branches and leaves spread out like a canopy, and the birds and birds built their nests, full of life. At the top of the tree is a transparent glass dome, and the sun is falling in pillars, and a layer of sacred pale gold is plated on the tree's rich green.

Ling Gu was directly stunned, this room and the hall outside were completely two worlds.

"Sit down." The gentle voice of the Bright Moon Priest recalled Ling Gu's thoughts.

Only then did Ling Gu see that there was a low table and a few futons at the foot of the big tree, and the Mingyue priest was sitting cross-legged there. The three of them also walked over and sat down on the futon.

Ling Gu couldn't help but look sideways, the floor had left a two-foot-wide space around the tree, and under the raised floor was the knotted roots. However, there is obviously an enchantment restriction here, and the roots of the tree cannot extend beyond the confines of this room, so they have to dig deeper, or coil thick and thick layers, forming a mysterious small world of roots under the floor.

"This is the Sacred Tree." Priest Mingyue saw Ling Gu's curiosity and took the initiative to explain to him: "It was originally an ordinary spirit plant, but then something happened. Since then, the tree that has produced it has had such magical powers that it has been kept here by the shrine. ”

"Tree species?" Ling Gu looked up and looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw some fruits among the branches and leaves of the big tree, only the size of an egg, a small number, and a dark green peel, which was not easy to find.

"This is a remnant of an ability potion." Boyan suddenly spoke at this time.

Ling Gu remembered Boyan's life experience, and was embarrassed to ask Boyan. Boyan didn't mean to continue, but fortunately, the Mingyue priest was understanding.

"After those supernatural potions were looted, less than a hundred were left for the temple to keep. It's always a hidden danger, and I'm a little interested in it, so I'll study it. What I didn't expect was that there was a spiritual power in this elixir, and by a mistake, the elixir was absorbed by this spirit plant, and it began to grow wildly and devoured other elixirs. Then it bears a tree seed, which also has the power of medicine, but it is very unstable. In order to prevent some people with ulterior motives, the existence of this sacred tree did not tell the people of the city. To the people in the temple, except for the five priests, no one knew its origin. ”

Ling Gu was surprised: "Meaning, this tree is actually conscious?" ”

"Better than nothing." Priest Mingyue said lightly: "Let's get back to business." Ma Jihao was poisoned and drowned alive. ”

Hearing this, Ling Gu said in his heart: Sure enough.

Qin Qian was not surprised, and asked, "What does the priest mean when he says he wants us to help?" ”

Priest Mingyue said: "The poison is in the Taiyuan, and General Qin also knows the particularity of the Taiyuan. Now it is the Ma family who has died, although Ma Wanlong has made trouble at the post station and has an explanation, but he will definitely not give up. ”

Qin Qian smiled: "Priest Mingyue wants us to intervene and suppress the Ma family?" ”

"The meaning of the Taiyuan to Bermuda is very important. It must not fall into the hands of those forces in the city. Once it falls, Bermuda is not far from the flames of war. Priest Mingyue said and glanced at Qin Qian again: "It's not so much that I want you to intervene, it's better to say that those families can't sit still." ”

"What does Priest Mingyue mean is that Ma Jihao's death may have been the work of one of the four families, including the Ma family?" Qin Qian's smile narrowed a little, and only curled the corners of his mouth a little - Ling Gu thought that both Boyan and Qin Qian were a little paralyzed, one was paralyzed into expressionlessness, and the other was paralyzed into a smiling Buddha.

Ling Gu walked for a moment, but he still followed their train of thought, and was suddenly shocked: "No, the Ma family has only two sons, can they make such a big money?" ”

"Because I have two sons." The corners of Qin Qian's mouth rose a little more: "Ma Wanlong can't do it, but those people in his family are not soft-handed." Otherwise, do you think that in the past few decades, Ma Wanlong's seven wives and concubines have only two children? And if the assumption is true, the wives and concubines who attacked Ma and Mo must be relied on, so which force do they rely on? ”

"In today's situation, if the Shuai Mansion does not intervene, it is equivalent to giving up the Taiyuan to those forces, and I am afraid that sooner or later it will be countered by them; If they intervene, it will follow their thoughts. As for Ma Wanlong......"

Ling Gu said: "Ma Wanlong must have seen this shape clearly." Otherwise, he dared to splash dirty water on Shuaifu so blatantly yesterday? I'll go, my son just died, and when my father saw that the shape was wrong, he immediately turned his weakness into an offensive, and tossed it first with his son's death, and he was able to enter and exit the Taiyuan more justifiably than the other three forces. ”

Ling Gu bared his teeth: "It's too ruthless." So the Shuai Mansion has to meddle? I don't think Ma Wanlong is a fuel-efficient lamp, but he will use public opinion to build momentum. ”

Priest Mingyue smiled: "So, as a shrine, I ask General Qin to help find out the true appearance." ”

Qin Qian also smiled and arched his hand: "It is incumbent." ”

Ling Gu blinked, and then was stunned - Priest Mingyue's trick of four or two thousand catties is clever. The inhabitants of Bermuda worshipped the Shuai Mansion and relied on the Temple. The temple came forward, not to mention that the Shuai Mansion Master was famous, and he could occupy the peak of public opinion first.

Coming out of the temple, Ling Gu was still holding the egg pocket on his chest, and his face sighed: "Priest Mingyue, it turns out that it is so unfathomable." ”

Qin Qian laughed a few times, but didn't answer, he said to Ling Gu: "Then I'll go to the Taiyuan first, you ......"

"I'll go, I'll go." Ling Gu instantly pulled out of his emotional feelings, took a step forward, and stared at Qin Qian with a slight glow in his left eye.

Qin Qian was silent, looking up at Bo Yan behind Ling Gu - dragged back.

Boyan understood what Qin Qian meant, and replied expressionlessly: "The commander only ordered me not to leave Madame's left and right, but to protect Madame." ”

The implication is that he will go wherever Madame goes, and Madame will roll up his sleeves if he wants to fight, but he must not interfere with Madame's freedom of movement.

Ling Gu raised his eyebrows triumphantly.

Qin Qian looked at his villain's triumphant appearance, pursed his mouth and exhaled a heavy breath from his nose, and sighed: "Then let's go, call a carriage." ”

He wasn't worried about Ling Gu messing with any moths - he had been used to it 10,000 years ago. It's just that there are really not only those seventeen or eighteen-year-old little children like bean sprouts in the Taiyuan, but in the training ground camp on the second mountain, they are all well-aged, strong, and heroic city defense troops.
