The tree house is built about 20 meters away from the big tree, the size is about 10 cubic meters, the outer wall is covered by leaves, and the green leaves are in a hurry, and it is difficult to find the mystery from a distance.

Jingchen Zhenyuan was imprisoned, leaving only that faint rune, and he couldn't get up, and on the other hand, he had to pay attention to controlling the output of his rune power, so that he wouldn't fall from exhaustion, so the progress was extremely slow.

Bai Zheng jumped onto a tree of more than 20 meters with only one fly, which made Jing Chen grit his teeth easily, not to bully people like this. After grinding his teeth secretly, he could only silently wipe a handful of bitter tears and continue to climb the tree hard.

The tree roof is framed between the two branches of the tree, and the base supporting the house is a wooden platform.

Jing Chen stepped forward, sat on the platform, and then lay down.

The trees in the jungle are unusually tall, and at this moment, you can only look up and see a small piece of blue sky, and the surrounding scenery cannot be overlooked, so you can see a piece of turquoise.

Jing Chen lay on the ground and was too lazy to move, squinting his eyes and looking up, only to see that the branches of the trees above were staggered, and about twenty meters away from it, there was a tree house hidden in the dense bushes.

The snort suddenly rushed into the smell of vegetables, the crispy smell of roast chicken, mixed with spices that had never been smelled before, mixed into an appetizing aroma.

Jing Chen's stomach rumbled three times and sat up suddenly.

Touching the belly, it's okay, there is no one around, it's not too embarrassing.

Jing Chen stood up and walked towards the small door of the tree house.

What, such a good opportunity, why not run?

Just kidding, Zhenyuan has been sealed, and Bai Zheng has such terrifying strength, he doesn't want to be caught like a chicken again.

What's more, that puppet warrior is still guarding under the tree, does he seem to be such a stupid person who sent himself into the net?

When you open the door, the fragrance is even stronger, and there is still the smell of fish head soup in the air, and you can imagine the milky white soup just by smelling it, which must be extremely tender.

Jing Chen sniffed hard, even more hungry.

Speaking of which, he originally went back to let Ling Yi make a little yellow croaker to eat, but he didn't want to fall into such a field, which should really be sad for those who heard it, and weeped for those who listened......

"The dish will be ready soon, wait a minute." The child by the pot looked eleven or twelve years old, and said without looking back.

At this time, Bai Zheng sat at the table like the second uncle, and the whole crispy roast chicken in front of him was shiny with an attractive luster, which did not match his temperament at all.

Jing Chen was hungry and fainted, so he didn't pounce on it until he had the last bit of sanity, glanced at Bai Zheng carefully, and simply stepped forward and sat down.

Hmph, even if you die, you have to be a full ghost!

"Do you want to eat white rice or black rice?" The child turned his head and was not surprised to see Jing Chen, as if he knew that there was one more person from the beginning.

"White rice." Bai Zheng thought for a while and said, his voice was still as good as ever.

Jing Chen was stunned for a moment, looked at the child, his little face was fleshy, and his serious face was cute.

I didn't expect to be particular about eating, Jing Chen asked weakly, "Is it okay to add white and black?" ”

The child smiled, his eyebrows were bent together, and he said happily, "Of course, I also like to eat white and black." ”

Jing Chen, "......" If you knew that there was a kind of cold medicine with this name, you would definitely not say that.

The dishes are all together, there are crispy roast chicken, tofu fish head, vegetarian fried assortment, fried wild vegetables, braised eggplant in oil, four dishes and one soup, complete color and fragrance.

At the same time, Jing Chen also saw the so-called white and black rice.

The rice in the bowl is indeed black and half white, and it is quite distinct.

Jing Chen tasted a few bites, the white one was relatively soft, the black one was more chewy, and there was a peculiar rice fragrance.

Bai Zheng ate two bowls of rice, the first bowl was white, and the second bowl was black rice.

Jing Chen was in tears after eating, it was so delicious, I really wanted to tie this little Zhengtai back to captive Youmuyou!

At the end of the meal, the child gets up and goes to collect the bowl.

Jing Chenbai ate a meal, and was a little embarrassed, so he went to help, of course, it is not ruled out that a large part of the reason is that he wants to stay away from Bai Zheng.

Bai Zheng got up slowly after wiping his hands, and he didn't know where to look with a pair of eyes without pupils, and said to Jing Chen, "I'll wait for you above." ”

This is probably a treehouse, if Jing Chen hadn't discovered it in advance, it would have been really hard to understand.

Bai Zheng went out after explaining, Jing Chen's heart was relieved, and he withdrew his gaze from the closed door, only then he looked at the child next to him with a smile and asked, "Little friend, what's your name?" ”

"Wine." The child said crisply, "Is my brother a friend of Mr.?" He tilted his head and added, "Sir has never brought a friend here, and my brother is the first." ”

No, kid, I was kidnapped, and it's all tears...... Jing Chen would never admit that he was smiling like a strange uncle at the moment.

The two washed the dishes for a while, and the wine was in a very good mood, humming an unspeakable tone, light and lively, and strangely good.

"Will my brother stay here at night?" Xiaojiu put the washed dishes on the side of the closet and asked with a small face.

"Well, probably." If I can still eat alive before dinner, Jing Chen sighed, looked at the wine, and suddenly felt at ease.

Eh, no matter what reason Bai Zheng arrested him, for now, the situation is not bad.

"Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen!" Zhihai suddenly remembered the voice of the old man.

Jing Chen was stunned, he had never thought the old man was so cute.

"Sword Senior, help." Jing Chen opened his mouth and howled.

Jian Lao's voice was silent for a moment before he said, "According to my estimate, his cultivation is at least at the peak of the Nine Stars of the Spirit Rune Master, and it is not impossible for the Xuan Rune Master to appear, I can't appear for too long, and I may be discovered." ”

"So what am I going to do? What if he uses me as a puppet? Jing Chen's brain made up for it, and he was trembling when he landed.

Elder Jian said with a slight regret, "That was really a waste of lunch. ”

The corners of Jing Chen's mouth twitched, "Get out!" ”

"No, it's a little farther away, and the communication can't support it for too long, you take care ......"

"Sword Elder? Sword Old? Jing Chen, "......"

Nima, so you're here to inform me that the kidnapper is a person you can't even provoke, so it's better to be caught obediently?! It's better not to say it!

"Brother?" Xiaojiu tugged at the corner of Jingchen's clothes, "Let's go up, Xiaojiu is also going to take a nap." ”

"......" Jingchen wanted to cry.

There is a rope ladder on the way from the first treehouse to the second treehouse, but the gap between the steps is smaller, and it seems to be specially prepared for small wine.

Jing Chen cheekily followed behind Xiaojiu and went up the rope ladder to the second tree house.

The location here is close to half the height of the ancient tree, and some of the surrounding trees can already see the crown, and the view is much wider.

Jing Chen looked into the distance, and could faintly see the outline of the building complex, not only was he surprised, was this still in the city?

Thinking back to the next time I was carried over, it didn't seem to be out of the city.

"Brother, Mr. is waiting for you inside." Xiaojiu said this, stepped to the side, and found another rope ladder, "I'll go up first." ”

Jing Chen was startled, looked up along the rope, tilted his head to the extreme, and found the third tree house with good eyesight, at a higher place, nearly fifty meters away, close to the top crown of the tree.

"How many treehouses are there?" Jing Chen couldn't help asking.

"Just three." Xiaojiu smiled playfully, and two deep dimples could be seen at the corners of his mouth, "Above is the bedroom, and this is the gentleman's study." ”

Xiaojiu quickly climbed the rope ladder, Jing Chen hesitated, pushed open the door and entered.

A smell of tea wafts out, refreshing people's hearts and spleens, and makes the body and mind refreshed.

However, when Jingchen looked up and looked around, he wanted to cry again. He pressed ten small yellow croakers, and the wine was definitely never seen inside!

What kind of study is this, it's clearly a haunted house.

The room is filled with wooden puppets of all sizes, large and small, without leather wrapping, revealing the most primitive wooden textures inside.

There are scattered parts all over the ground, which at first glance look like stumps and broken remains, and from time to time a skull that is difficult to distinguish between real and fake, if you add a little blood, the whole murder scene.

In the center, Bai Zheng sat at the table as steady as Mount Tai, and the two cups of brewed tea in front of him were obviously prepared for Jing Chen.

"Sit." Bai Zheng looked at Jing Chen, a pair of eyes without pupils that couldn't see love.

Jing Chen took a deep breath, stepped forward, and sat down in front of Bai Zheng.

The tea in the house is fragrant and pleasant, and if you ignore the extremely weird furnishings around you, you can still enjoy it.

For a long time, neither of them spoke, Bai Zheng took a sip of tea and drank it, and did not say anything special.

Jing Chen's eyes were focused on the white smoke of the tea, pondering Bai Zheng's intentions, and then took out the puppet he got for the first time and the puppet man he bought at the auction together.

In this world dominated by rune arrays, puppets are scarce, and their value is even less known, and it is not difficult to think of so many puppets in a treehouse now.

Bai Zheng paused, and finally had a screening, looked at Jing Chen, and reluctantly opened the golden mouth, "It's not too stupid." ”

Jing Chen, "......", if you want to see it, just say it, what kind of bird is it to make a cup of tea and pretend to be deep? ! After thinking about it, he asked, "Then may I ask for me?" ”

Bai Zheng put down the teacup and said lightly, "I need a disciple, do one thing for me after I finish my studies, you are the best candidate." “

"Don't rush to deny it." Bai Zheng then picked up an object on the table, it was a pair of wooden eyes, which were on the puppet man in the Lei Yin pincer crab, "It sued me, you are very interested in puppet people, and you have a little attainment, don't you?" ”

Jing Chen was speechless. Obediently, this pair of wooden eyeballs also has its own video function? What kind of anti-heaven technology is this? It can't be that he dismantled the puppeteers and recorded them, right?

"So you chose me?" Jing Chen said helplessly, "So, the jade slip of the auction was also deliberately taken out by you?" ”

"Not bad."

Jing Chen sighed and said with a wry smile, "It seems that I really have no other choice." ”

Not to mention that he is indeed interested in puppetry, just because of the huge disparity in strength between the two sides, there is no room for him to refuse, okay?

……

"No, no, no." Ling Yi didn't take a few steps before he was stopped by Jian Lao, "The direction is wrong, go east." ”

Ling Yi paused, and hesitated, "That's the hinterland of the back mountain of the academy, right?" ”

Menwu Academy is located in the easternmost part of Jiwu City, close to the Ziyun Mountain Range, with a vast area, and the periphery of the mountain range is often used for student training.

But even on the periphery, the rune beasts in the Ziyun Mountain Range are fierce and abnormal, and they dare not enter unless they are above four stars, let alone go to the hinterland inside.

"Yes, so you'd better be prepared, it's not easy to capture your daughter-in-law." Jian Lao was a little more serious, and his tone was not heavy.

"Why didn't the boss leave?" Huo Zhiyou followed behind Ling Yi, and when he saw someone stopping, he said strangely.

Ling Yi shook his head, and then said with a firm expression, "It's nothing, let's go." ”。
