Silk play Silk play thirteen five willows have a heart
In the theater building, Xiao Zhuo was half-leaning on a pillar, no matter how many people came and went around him, his eyes were always staring at the drama running back and forth on the stage. He didn't understand these babbling things very well, and he wasn't interested in anything, he was just here to tell if there was anything that shouldn't exist among these people through every turn and every action of these scenes.
After he sent Xu Shiji and Wang Junke out of the range of Wuliuzhuang last night, he hurriedly turned around to look for the white-haired old man, but he looked around Wuliuzhuang for almost half an hour, and he didn't see the figure of the white-haired old man. At that time, he even had some doubts about whether he would be wrong, maybe Jiang Yingxue didn't see him at that time, and the reason why he glanced at their location was a complete coincidence. But on second thought, it's not right, even if that glance is a coincidence, what is the reason for this coincidence? Xiao Zhuo had also stood in Jiang Yingxue's position and watched, at that time, on the roof where he was with Xu Shiji and Wang Junke, there was nothing to attract attention at all, Jiang Yingxue had no reason to glance at them, let alone smile that slightly.
But fortunately, Wang Junke said that Wuliuzhuang was sold to him by a white-haired old man, and Xiao Zhuo thought that the white-haired old man might be a local, so he had to go to Wang Junke again to inquire about the situation. According to Wang Junke's narration, this white-haired old man is actually surnamed Weng, and his age is about a hundred years old, and not many people remember his name, as if he was not originally a local person, but how he came here and why he came here, because the time is too long, not to mention that the juniors in this town are not clear, and even the elders in the town, I am afraid that few can say it. Most people only know that Uncle Weng has always been in the town, and he will perform a puppet show in the theater every night. Therefore, Xiao Zhuo will come to the theater now to see if he can find Uncle Weng.
Xiao Zhuo looked carefully, the people on the stage kept rotating, but he never saw Uncle Weng or Jiang Yingxue appear. It stands to reason that most of the spirits that live in the puppets are yin spirits, and they are afraid of the sun, and they hide in the shadows or hide underground during the day. But since Jiang Yingxue has cultivated into a spirit body, she should be able to appear during the day, but now Jiang Yingxue is reluctant to appear, why is it? Could it really be that he misunderstood?
Just when Xiao Zhuo was puzzled, behind him, a man in a Taoist robe hurriedly walked up, the man walked quickly to Xiao Zhuo's side, stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Zhuo on the shoulder, Xiao Zhuo looked back, it turned out to be Xu Shiji.
"Brother Xu Dao, why are you here? What was handed to you last night, learned so quickly? What a gift! Although Xiao Zhuo said this, he was very clear in his heart, the knowledge of the earth phenomena he wrote to Xu Shiji last night, Xu Shiji could not have mastered it so quickly, otherwise Xu Shiji would not have achieved anything at this age. And Xu Shiji is here now, and he looks like he is in a hurry, I'm afraid there is something else.
"Brother Xiao, there's an accident over there with Brother Wang! Come with me! After Xu Shiji finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xiao Zhuo to speak, and pulled Xiao Zhuo and walked downstairs.
"Brother Xu Dao, what the hell is going on?" Xiao Zhuo didn't know what to do, but he had to follow Xu Shiji out.
"Said on the way."
Xu Shiji walked and pulled Xiao Zhuo out of the theater, and at this moment, Hua Dan, who was singing on stage, also removed the hijab on his head, revealing a captivating posture. And Xiao Zhuo passed Xu Shiji's description on the road, and probably knew what happened to Xu Shiji.
It turned out that this morning, Wang Junke took people to Wuliuzhuang, originally they wanted to transplant the remaining four willow trees to other places according to Xiao Zhuo's instructions, but when they dug out the roots and prepared to cut off the taproot and beard, no matter how the knife and axe chopped, they couldn't cut the roots at all, which frightened everyone at that time. Wang Jun remembered the situation when he cut down the tree last night, and cut it on the tree again, and found that the tree did not encounter the situation of cutting the roots of the tree, so he ordered someone to cut off the roots of the four willow trees, but when they were cut to the ground, the knife and axe once again encountered obstacles. Wang Junke sent someone to find Xiao Zhuo. And Xu Shiji, who studied the earth elephant at home alone, after listening to the people who came back explain the reason, where was he still sitting, and quickly went to the theater to find Xiao Zhuo.
When Xiao Zhuo and Xu Shiji arrived at Wuliuzhuang, they saw that a large pit of about two meters had been dug under the roots of each willow tree, and the scene was really a bit spectacular, and the roots in the pit, Xiao Zhuo always felt that something was wrong, but for a while, he said that something was wrong. He knew that the yin qi of these four willow trees was too heavy, but the feeling that these roots gave him now was not a problem with the yin qi from the roots. Puzzled, he couldn't help but look at the roots of the tree again, the four taproots were rooted in the ground, like pillars supporting the body of the tree, although now from the roots of the tree have been dug down to a depth of the knees, but the roots of the tree still can't shake the slightest, and the main reason for not shaking is probably the countless fibrous roots inserted into the ground, but these fibrous roots are not cut at all.
"What kind of tree is this?" Xu Shiji, who was next to him, sighed, "The willow roots are at most three forks, and these roots are actually four forks, have they become sperm?" ”
Xu Shiji's words came out, and the people around him panicked again, and Xiao Zhuo realized that something was wrong. The roots of the willow tree have always been simple, and the roots of the ordinary willow tree are mostly bifurcated, relying on the body of the tree buried in the ground to fix the tree, and the willow itself is not very tall, and the crown of the tree does not block the wind, so it is rare to be uprooted by strong winds. And the five willow roots in front of me actually have four forks, I'm afraid it's not far from Chengjing.
Ten years of trees, a hundred years of people, but unfortunately all the eighty years of accumulation were cut down by Wang Junke! But after all, all the yin qi gathered before was it, and if it really became a spirit with yin qi, I am afraid that there would be no good results at that time. Now cut and regrow, maybe it's also a good choice.
Xiao Zhuo retracted his thoughts, pulled out the Qiannian behind him (the one given by Su Dingfang), and after injecting spiritual power into his hand, he slashed towards the taproot of the tree root. The onlookers only heard a light trembling sound, and then saw Xiao Zhuo's arm unnaturally flicked back, as if this sword not only failed to work, but Xiao Zhuo was shocked back?
"Brother Xiao, are you okay?"
"Xiao Gongzi, what's wrong?"
Seeing this, Wang Junke and Xu Shiji hurriedly stepped forward to inquire, but saw that Xiao Zhuo did not pay attention to them, but shook his hand, and then stretched out his right hand behind his back again.
"Get out of the way!"
After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, Qian Nian had already withdrawn the sword box, and as soon as he changed his hand, the ancient sword was instantly pulled out, and at this time, the faint blue light emitted by the ancient sword was no longer the faint blue light that it used to be, but a cold blue light, filling the entire sword body, even if it was daytime, the bright light could still be seen around. The next moment, Xiao Zhuo split out a blue light on the left and right, the blue light hit the root of the tree, as soon as the two touched, there were two crisp sounds, and everyone took a closer look, the two roots of the willow tree were actually cut off by the green light, therefore, everyone couldn't help but have a fear of Xiao Zhuo. Immediately afterwards, Xiao Zhuo concocted the same method, and after cutting off the two split roots, he stepped forward and kicked the willow root more than a meter away.
Just when everyone didn't know why Xiao Zhuo did this, Xiao Zhuo had already hurried to the edge of the pit, looked around, and then looked at the root of the willow tree, and finally found a bright red jewel-like object embedded in the root of the willow tree.
Xiao Zhuo stepped forward and took a closer look at the blood-colored gem-like object, the whole body was blood-red like chicken blood, the outside was smooth and abnormal, and there was a needle-like object wrapped in it, Xiao Zhuo didn't know what it was, and he didn't dare to touch it easily for a while. Because when he used Qiannian to chop the roots of the tree just now, he had already realized that something was wrong, originally these five willow trees were less than a hundred years old, even if they had spiritual sense, no matter how hard their roots became due to the gathering of yin qi, it was impossible to resist the Taoist spiritual power, but Qiannian just failed to cut off the roots, and they were bounced away. In this case, it is likely that these five willow trees are protecting themselves with the help of the power of something, and in Wuliuzhuang, the undead of the Jiang family have been trapped in Wuliuzhuang and cannot leave, I am afraid it is also related to what these five willow trees rely on.
Fortunately, although the willow root could block Qian Nian's attack, it could not resist the power of the ancient sword, but because of this, Xiao Zhuo had to pay attention to the object in front of him, and what he needed to use the ancient sword to deal with was not an ordinary thing!
"Brother Xiao, what is this?" Xu Shiji said that he was about to step forward and take it off.
"Don't move! It's blood. Xiao Zhuo hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Xu Shiji, but seeing that Xu Shiji was moving faster than him, he hurriedly withdrew his hand.
"How can there be blood amber here? There won't be one under every tree, right? Xu Shiji was shocked, he knows some of the formation of blood amber, it is said that the resin of trees wraps branches and leaves or insects, and it takes countless years to form amber, and the things wrapped in amber can go through the vicissitudes of life without rotting or rotting, so some people use this method to make some ornamental items, if these items are soaked in the blood of humans and animals, so that amber becomes blood red can form blood amber, and the items contained in blood amber will also become fierce and bloodthirsty things due to blood erosion for too long, if people often touch or wear them, The blood will gradually be sucked in.
"How do I know! You get a black cloth to get it off, and I'll take a look at the others. After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, he ignored Xu Shiji, walked to the roots of several other willow trees, cut off the roots and tendrils of the trees in turn, and kicked the roots away, and sure enough, there was a blood amber embedded under each root.
The roots of the five willow trees have all been uprooted, and Wang Junke also ordered someone to move the willow roots to the riverbank and replant them after Xu Shiji picked the blood amber, but Wang Junke ordered someone to follow the residual roots of the willow tree and turn over the ground of Wuliuzhuang, as if he was afraid that a willow tree sprout would suddenly emerge on the surface of the sky someday.
"Master Wang, Brother Xu Dao, what do you think is the thing in this blood pearl?" Xiao Zhuo, Xu Shiji, and Wang Junke sat on the stone case in Wuliuzhuang, and the three of them stared at the blood pearl for a long time, Xiao Zhuo finally couldn't help but ask the two of them, just because he really didn't know the needle-like thing in the blood pearl.
"This thing, if you want to say it's a needle, the tip of the needle seems to be too thin, and there is no pinhole in the back. Besides, it doesn't seem to make sense to hide a needle with amber! Xu Shiji said, and flipped it again with the blood amber.
"It's like some kind of animal's beard!" Xiao Zhuo and Xu Shiji were still carefully looking at the blood pearl, and Wang Jun next to him said suspiciously, so shocked that Xiao Zhuo looked at the blood pearl again, only to find that the thing in the blood pearl seemed to be a piece of whiskers of an animal.
Xiao Zhuo was shocked in his heart, if the blood was really a beard, how advanced the cultivation of the beard owner was, now just by cutting off the beard, he was forced to use the ancient sword to suppress it, if he was here, would he be able to deal with it? Moreover, what kind of grudge does the owner of this beard have with the Jiang family, and he does not hesitate to use the power of heaven and earth to kill the Jiang family!

"Second uncle!" Luo Cheng and Su Dingfang stared at the approaching convoy, and heard a slightly childish voice shouting at them in the distance.
"Huan'er, pay attention to the number of courtesies!" On the other side of the carriage, a handsome man dressed as a man instructed. But her eyes were eager to distinguish who was the one named Su Dingfang among the two opposite.
"Got it, auntie."
