(In order to avoid misunderstanding, I will say it again here, this is not a westward demon, not a westward demon, not a westward demon, important things are said three times, Yuyuko has not yet come out of the stage.) Also, there will be about two more chapters to appear in the original Oriental characters)

Looking at the huge cherry blossom tree in the distance, I think if I keep getting closer, I guess I will enter the other party's 'range'. Mo shook his head, then turned and walked in the direction of the village. The real purpose of his visit this time was not to slay demons and eliminate demons. Moreover, this village is obviously hiding something.

"Village Chief, can that Highness Mo you invited really get rid of that damn 'cheap goods'?" In a courtyard in the middle of the village, a group of old people and squires in the village gathered together, as if discussing something. One of the old women asked nervously after listening to the announcement of the old man standing in the middle.

"Shut up, how many times have you said it, that's a 'dryad', a cannibalistic 'tree spirit'! Isn't it a ......" Hearing this, the old man's face as the village chief suddenly became ugly, and after a few reprimands, he seemed to have thought of something, so he didn't continue.

After taking two deep breaths, the village chief seemed to calm down, both like a warning and a threat, and his already ugly face was even more hideous, "Remember, there's no 'cheap goods' there, just a cannibal-eating 'dryad'!" If you chew your tongue again, you will bear the consequences! ”

The old men were in a commotion for a while, and then finally someone couldn't help but ask, "Then can His Highness Mo really get rid of that, the 'Dryad'?" ”

"Of course, that His Highness is the 'Sword Saint' of the Imperial Seal, and his reputation has spread all over the world, and countless demons have been killed. This time, he was willing to make a move, and he was just a 'dryad', and he was completely able to catch it. ”

"But didn't all the exorcists I invited before go and never returned?" Someone else muttered under his breath.

The old man swept through the crowd fiercely, and before he could have a seizure, someone muttered: "I said that I should get rid of that 'scourge' in the morning......"

"Enough!" The old man slammed the cane in his hand to the ground, "What's the point of talking about this now!" Besides, you also agreed to hide the matter in the first place! What's more, now all you need is His Highness Mo to take action to eradicate that damn 'Dryad', and naturally everything will be restored to its original state. ”

"Hide? It's interesting, what the hell are you hiding? Tell me about it? At this moment, a voice that surprised everyone came from outside the courtyard.

"Who's in ...... ......"Everyone turned around like frightened rabbits and looked at the place where the sound came out, and before the village chief could scold him, when he saw the figure of the person who came, he swallowed the rest of the words, and his face was flushed with the sudden change of complexion, and with the monkey-like face, it looked very funny.

The people who came in were the inks they had been discussing. Glancing around the group of squires and landlords in the village, Mo said with interest: "Why don't you speak, I'm still waiting for you to tell someone to talk to me, you, the so-called 'past'." ”

"Hehe, that, Your Highness Mo, why are you here. Did you say you've already gotten rid of that 'dryad', that's ......?"

The village chief wiped the sweat from his forehead and stepped forward respectfully, and before he could continue to slap the sycophants, Mo waved his hand impatiently: stopped him, "Answer my question." ”

There seemed to be an irresistible force and coercion in his voice, which made all the old people in front of him tremble, as if they would be unable to support it at any time and would fall down.

"Your Highness Mo, this is actually some small misunderstanding, let's ......" The village chief still had to defend himself, but after seeing those pair of pitch-black eyes, the psychological defense line could no longer support it, and he pounced and fell to the ground......

It turned out that the 'strangeness' of the cherry tree had been discovered in the village a long time ago. It was only after learning about this that the squire and the village chief decided to hide the matter. In order to prevent this 'lucky tree' that can bring them wealth from being removed.

Because the 'cherry tree' that blooms undefeated was already famous at that time, countless tourists and even celebrities and aristocrats came to visit it, which naturally brought countless benefits and wealth to the village. No one wants to be separated from money because of the death of so many 'one or two people', as long as it doesn't come to their own heads.

Originally, they thought that they could hide this matter forever, because after investigation, they found that although this 'demon tree' can 'eat people', it will only 'move' at night, and it will only prey on humans who are close to 'it'. Over the course of a year, it is very common for so many people to 'disappear' unexpectedly. No one would have thought that the 'Divine Tree' was actually a man-eating 'Demon Tree'.

However, just recently, this demon tree, which has always been 'peaceful' with their village, has suddenly changed, not only changing its habit of only being active at night, but also attacking humans more frequently, and even directly attacking a large number of tourists during the day. Now, this secret cannot be concealed at all.

What's even more frightening is that after 'discovering' that no one is near him, the 'Dryad' actually took the initiative to expand the scope of his attack, and it is increasing day by day. At night, it is even more rampant, extending countless hunting 'branches', hunting all living creatures in the range of activity.

Such a discovery completely detonated the panic of the village and the surrounding residents. No one in the surrounding villages dared to approach Sakura Village anymore, and the name of the man-eating 'demon tree' spread thoroughly, and the tourists who came to visit it no longer existed. And what makes the people of Sakura Village even more frightened is that the attack range of the 'Demon Tree' is still increasing, as if they are planning to completely eat the 'grass next to the nest' in Sakura Village.

After listening to this hidden story, Mo left a sentence of "I see" and walked away, completely ignoring the other party's pleas and bows.

In a sense, this village is also to blame, because of greed and delusion, it chose such a way to die. Even if some villagers are either unaware or under pressure, the name of an accomplice is inevitable.

Originally, Yimo's temperament naturally didn't care about the life or death of this village after figuring out this secret. But Mo noticed that there were still some things to hide in the other party's words, of course, this was not deliberately concealed by the other party, maybe in the other party's heart, this was not a trivial matter worth 'repenting' at all. But it's about some boring 'past' that I want to find out.

However, it doesn't hurt that instead of asking these sneaky veterans, it is better to ask 'me' yourself.

Looking up, the 'Cherry Blossom Tree', which will never bloom and never be defeated, is already close in front of you. Looking up at the sky, the sun has gradually set, and a bright moon on the horizon has gradually risen. Well, let's wait for the night to fall.

…… To be continued......
