Chapter 226: Locust Tree Spirit
After agreeing with Ye Yin about this, he left first, leaving Haotian alone here in a daze.
"Master, you have believed this man so easily, what if he is a wicked man, everything that has been shown in front of you before is just a show?"
Xiaobai sneered, and sarcastically said to Haotian in his mind, he didn't seem to believe in Ye Yin very much.
"Obviously, you said that he was not hostile to me, why are you who suspect him now. Besides, I believe that in my eyes, it is impossible to see the wrong person, unless he is an Oscar-winning actor. ”
Haotian smiled playfully, and said in a cold voice, he didn't believe in Ye Yin, but in his own vision.
"I just think that even if he is kind, he may not be a wise man in the future, and leading a country is not something that anyone can do. Nowadays, the relationship between the human race and the demon beast race is very deadlocked, and it is difficult for anyone to maintain the peace between the two forces. ”
Xiao Bai sighed and said, not so much that he was worried about the human race, but that he was worried that Haotian would be involved too much, which would affect the promotion of his strength in the future.
"It is better to have a benevolent emperor ascend the throne than a sinister and cunning prince. ”
Haotian put his hands behind his head and sighed.
"Boss, what are you doing here alone, come and walk around with us, the surrounding environment is very good, there are many accommodations, we have divided up a few rooms, and left you the largest!"
At this moment, Xingchen ran over excitedly and said to Haotian.
"Okay, then I'll go over and have a look. ”
Haotian smiled and leisurely walked around the house.
The whole courtyard covers a large area, and there are housekeepers and maids and guards, but there are not many of them, and Ye Yin must have explained to them before coming, so no one expressed surprise at their arrival.
"My lord, I am Wang An, the housekeeper here, you can just call me Uncle Wang. His Royal Highness has already told me before, let's take good care of everyone. ”
An amiable old man walked over from not far away, showed a charitable smile to Haotian, and at the same time asked a few maids behind him to come over and salute Haotian and the others.
"I know, you don't have to be so polite, just prepare for us to eat, wear and things we need for daily life on weekdays. ”
Haotian replied casually, he was just looking for a place to stay temporarily, and he might not stay in the imperial capital forever in the future, and there was no need to waste too much energy here.
"Yes, my lord, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince has ordered, let me take you around this courtyard, the place is quite big, and there are a few places that need attention. ”
Uncle Wang's voice was respectful.
"Oh, what needs attention, what?"
Haotian raised his eyebrows, and from the other party's words, he seemed to hear a touch of off-string sound.
"That's right, there is a tree demon in the courtyard, it is a hundred-year-old locust tree spirit, but by mistake, a strong man many years ago sealed his soul here, and His Royal Highness the prince thought it was pitiful, so he never removed it. ”
Uncle Wang sighed and spoke.
But fortunately, this locust tree has been living here for a long time, and it is familiar with the people in the yard.
"We want to go over and have a look, can we?"
When Haotian heard this, he suddenly asked with some surprise, but he was very interested in it.
"Of course you can, but the locust tree demon is not in a good mood, I hope you don't mind. It's actually a very poor monster beast, which has obviously not harmed anyone, but has been trapped here for hundreds of years. ”
Uncle Wang said with a helpless smile.
He has been a housekeeper here for several years, and occasionally takes others to water the locust tree to repel insects, but he can still feel the inexplicable sadness.
When Xingchen heard this, he also showed a sympathetic look.
As monsters, they can live a free and carefree life, but some monsters live so miserably that it is embarrassing.
Raising his head and seeing Haotian looking indifferent, Xingchen opened his mouth several times, but he still couldn't speak.
Now that they themselves have helped Haotian a lot, it is impossible for sympathy to overflow, and then let Haotian take action.
Haotian seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look at the stars.
Xingchen suddenly turned his head, pretending not to care, not daring to look at Haotian, for fear that his inner words would be understood by the other party.
"Your little brother is also very delicate, obviously his heart is full of sympathy, but he still doesn't dare to take the initiative to mention it to you, it's really a child. ”
Xiaobai's voice suddenly sounded in his mind, and Haotian was slightly stunned.
"I didn't really realize it, but if the locust tree spirit hadn't hurt anyone, I could have helped. is also a demon beast, and you can't really see death without helping. ”
Haotian said lightly.
Xiaobai didn't say anything more, although he had always disliked Haotian's stupidity, but if Haotian really became a ruthless, ruthless and unrighteous villain, then there was no need for him to support Haotian.
The group soon came to a woodland at the back of the yard, and saw a three-person thick locust tree, standing among a group of flowers and plants, looking very tall and outstanding.
"That's it, my lord, you can watch here first, I still have to go ahead of time, if there is anything, just send someone to find me. ”
Uncle Wang said with a faint smile, and then turned to leave.
Haotian stepped forward and looked at the towering locust tree with interest, with a hint of surprise on his face.
This tree looks at least five hundred years old, but I didn't expect that the soul of the tree has been sealed now, and it is really pitiful.
"Whoever comes here to offend my holy might, this is my territory, and no one else should linger here. ”
The body of the locust tree trembled slightly, countless leaves fell and scattered all over the ground, and a huge mouth appeared on the trunk of the tree, spitting out people's words.
"Wow, is it really a demon beast? I thought that the demon beast was only our animal, but I didn't expect that even the plants around me could cultivate!"
Xingchen exclaimed in surprise and said in some surprise.
"Hmm, I didn't expect you to be a demon beast, but the body is a purple flame lion, why do you want to mingle with humans. Demon beasts like freedom the most, and I can't imagine that you are in the company of humans in order to survive in secret!"
The locust tree spirit was indiscriminate, and directly said something to insult Xingchen, and the angry Xingchen's eyes widened, and he still had some sympathy for this guy just now.
"Please, open your eyes and see clearly, where are the humans here, my boss is a noble golden ant, how can it be a human?"
