Chapter Twenty-One: Jiren Heavenly Help, Thunder Tree Demon
"No!"
The surging thunder did not stop with the roar of the locust tree demon.
I threw the thunder in my palm at the fork of the locust tree demon's branch, and suddenly the branch was charred black and snapped with a click.
The girl's body fell straight into the water not far from me, and I scooped it up.
At this time, it was about ten minutes before the little girl was hanged. After a little temptation, she still had a snort.
Years of malnutrition allowed her to save her life.
I handed the girl to Qin Lan, "You help her to a place a hundred meters away from the lake." ”
"Good!"
When Qin Lan was a little farther away, the trunk of the locust tree roared, and countless branches extended from above, and the tips of the branches were as sharp as knives, coming from all directions, trapping me.
I calmly said, "Let go of me, or I'll kill you." ”
The locust dryad is not a threat to me. But I don't want to startle me by dealing with it.
The locust tree demon sneered, "I thought you could really trigger the thunder between heaven and earth. I didn't expect it to be just an empty table. ”
"I will slowly suck your blood dry with twigs, and insert flesh and bones into the soil for nourishment, and this is the price you pay for your hubris!"
As the sharp branches slowly approached me, lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, and after the lightning flashed, thunder every few breaths at most!
The thunderbolt that was thrown out just now was that I deliberately controlled the power, in order not to hurt the girl.
Now, Qin Lan and the girl have withdrawn out of the safe range, and there is water in front of this locust tree, which is a good place for natural accumulation of thunder!
Seeing the sharp branches of the big tree, only an inch away from my throat and eyeballs, the explosion thunder dragged the long electric snake, and finally pierced the sky!
At this moment, I threw the thunder that had been condensed in my palm again into the sky above the canopy.
The tail end of the electric snake was attracted to the top of the locust tree by the thunder I had accumulated, it was only a small tail, but it was also a heavenly power!
There were about ten people hugging the thick locust tree, and from the top to the bottom, there were two fist-sized openings.
The screams shook through the sky, and the branches that surrounded them all turned to powder.
Unexpectedly, an attack only seriously injured the locust tree, and seeing that the sky was still rolling thunder, I released a thunderbolt again.
This time, there were no more screams.
A total of two scars from the lightning strikes left the big locust tree in a dormant state.
I took two steps forward and pressed my palm against the trunk of the tree, and I could still feel the weak power of the locust tree demon, but it was so badly damaged that it could not recover in a short time.
At this point, I was able to easily destroy the locust tree. But after the locust tree was exterminated, I couldn't find out about Changshou Village.
Thousands of miles away spent a lot of money to come to Changshou Town, and hanged people on this tree to renew Shi Jianguo's life, this tree is the lifeblood of Changshou Village!
I don't destroy the locust tree spirit, but I have the strength to destroy the locust tree spirit at any time, which has the hole card to coerce Mai Mendong.
Thinking of this, I gritted my teeth and squeezed out the blood of my tongue, sprayed it on a piece of gauze, and shoved a twig into the deepest part of the crack that had been struck by lightning.
With the recovery speed of the locust dryad, it will take about a week to restore the external wounds as before.
If I hadn't taken out the natal essence blood of this piece of cloth by then, the tree would have quickly burned to the ground, and there would have been no more life.
With this arrangement, Mai Mendong didn't dare to turn his face at me......
A hundred meters away, Qin Lan was still holding a little girl and waiting for me.
Shattered by lightning, I looked down at the locust tree reflected on the surface of the lake, which was covered with dense dead souls......
Among them, there are adults and children, all of whom are hanged from trees, and their souls cannot be freed, so they hang all the time......
At this moment, Qin Lan had already revived the girl, and was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands in horror.
I stepped forward and put my palm on the girl's heavenly spirit cover, the Taoist innate true qi has the effect of nourishing the soul, and it didn't take long for her to be much quieter.
I asked, "Remember my voice?" ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed, "You are the one who talked to me through the door!" ”
I looked around and found that there were faint torches flickering in the direction of the village, so I took Qin Lan and the girl to the villa.
"There's a lot of commotion here, let's talk as we walk."
On the way, I asked, "How much do you know about Changshou Village and this big locust tree?" ”
The girl looked at me with ignorant eyes, and after a long time, she said slowly, "I am usually locked in the house and rarely go out. ”
"I just know...... The people in the village would raise a lot of children, just like my parents, and then sacrifice them to the locust tree. ”
I have already guessed everything the girl said.
What I really want to know is why Changshou Village has to gather so many centenarians.
And what is the relationship between Maimendong and Changshou Village?
However, this girl is only seven or eight years old, and has been in captivity most of the time, and it is not easy to answer these things.
Back at the villa, the lights in the house went out. At this time, it was past twelve o'clock in the night, and Shi Geng should have fallen asleep.
I sent Qin Lan and the girl to the bedroom on the second floor, "You guys rest here, I still have things to deal with." ”
The girl's face turned pale with horror, "Can you take me away!" Otherwise...... They're going to hang me! ”
"After tonight, no one will make a move on you again."
I instructed Qin Lan to say, "You take care of this girl for me, and if someone wants to do something to you, tell them that if you dare to move a finger, that locust tree will die due to lightning strikes." ”
After the instructions, I left the villa through the window again.
Without his granddaughter's life, Shi Jianguo would not survive tonight. When he died, it was useless to kill the girl again.
Therefore, I conclude that no one will let the girl die.
And with the locust tree as a threat, I believe that in Changshou Village, no one dares to do anything to Qin Lan......
After the lightning strike, Mai Mendong and the others will definitely check on the injury of the locust tree as soon as possible, which is why I left in a hurry just now.
And what I want to investigate now is the second clue - Shi Jianguo
The hospital is some distance from the villa area, and I walked for about an hour. On the way, I saw more than 100 villagers driving in the direction of the lake.
I found a hill to hide, and when I came to the hospital, I found that it was empty, and the car was also driven away, and it is estimated that everyone went to the locust tree.
The last blast of thunder sounded, and torrential rain poured down, a torrential rain of this magnitude that could not be seen in decades on this extremely arid Loess Plateau.
Due to the thunderstorm, the entire village of Changshou lost power, and only the billboard of the hospital was black, which was still functioning under the supply of the emergency power system.
The huge scarlet cross-shaped signboard did not have the holy aura that should have belonged to the hospital, but instead had a faint evil aura.
I could vaguely sense that there was an extremely heavy energy of resentment on the roof of the hospital, lurking in the night, staring at me......
This kind of aura is not like a resentful spirit, let alone a ghost, but it is extremely powerful and has spiritual intelligence.
In this strange village, no matter what appears, it doesn't seem to be weird.
I didn't come to the hospital to ward off evil spirits. So I chose to turn a blind eye to this thing.
In the corridor on the second floor, the black hand could not see the five fingers, only the green light of the emergency sign in the distance was still lit.
A thick yin qi wafted through the corridor, and I saw a mouth appear out of thin air on the wall at the end of the corridor.
The mouth was dry and cracked, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and moaned in a low, hoarse voice, "Uh-ah! I don't want to die...... I don't want to die! ”
I pretended not to see it, and while going upstairs, I whispered: "Don't mess with me, or I'll send you to the eighteenth floor of hell!" ”
The words fell, and the strange mouth disappeared.
I came to the ward on the fourth floor, and before I entered the door, I heard Shi Jianguo's heavy gasp.
He's not dead!?
Pushing open the door of the ward, I saw Shi Jianguo struggling to sit up, adjusting the hanging water containing adrenaline hormones to the maximum.
I checked his complexion and found that this person would have to live on his grandson's life, and it would take a whole day to consume it.
"I've rescued your granddaughter, and she's safe now. So...... In order for her to live, you have to die. ”
I sat on the edge of the bed and pointed to the ventilator button beside him, "Press it, and I will reincarnate for you to avoid the pain of illness." ”
"I ...... I don't want to die! ”
The old man struggled desperately panting, and hot tears flowed from his cloudy old eyes, "Even if it's uncomfortable, I don't want to die!" ”
