257 (Ancient City Chapter: Sacrifice to Ancient Trees)
First, he could see Zi Ling'er again and let Niu Liu thank him personally. The second is to give things to her in person, which is more reassuring.
"That's fine, after all, if you put it here with us, maybe it will let him run away......" Du Zaikang smiled, picked out a plant of ancient ginseng that looked good, and stuffed it into his lock spirit bag.
The lock spirit bag and the lock spirit chain have the same effect, but one is a lock spirit artifact in the state of the bag, and the other is a lock spirit artifact like a rope.
As if sensing something, Niu Liu's eyes began to sweep around the bodies of Tilt Yun, Du Zaikang, and Chongming.
"What's wrong, Xiaoliu?" Niu Ba looked at Niu Liu's abnormal appearance, a little nameless.
"Second father, I remember that among them, there is a person whose eye color is three attributes, why can't he find it now?" Niu Liu actually noticed something wrong when his father caught ancient ginseng, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he was silent.
Later, he found out that it was because there was one person missing, a person named Ling Shan......
……
At this time, Ling Shan and the White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast came to a hidden cave.
Only then did the White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast let go of Ling Shan's hand, turned around, and said to Ling Shan: "On the way to this cave just now, I probed your spiritual power, what injuries did you suffer before?" ”
Ling Shan didn't hide it, and said straight to the point: "It was a Spirit Venerable who injured me, I wanted to seek death, so I jumped off the shoreless cliff, and the spirit core and spiritual power were damaged from that time......
"You've ever fallen off a cliff!?" The white spirit tapir beast opened its mouth wide in surprise, its eyes widened, and it couldn't believe that someone could escape from the cliff without a shore.
"I was rescued by an extremely mysterious girl, her hair, eyes and even the clothes she was wearing were purple, and there seemed to be a purple crystal mark on her forehead......" Ling Shan recalled, telling the white spirit tapir Luo Beast about the mysterious girl in his memory.
If this is the case, then it means that Ling Shan should have met a strong man, otherwise as an immortal cultivator, how could he survive from that shoreless cliff?
For thousands of years, the shoreless cliffs have been deep valleys surrounded by miasma, and I don't know how many white bones there are, and how many corpses of humans and spirit beasts lie in them. Ling Shan, who can return from there, should not be an ordinary person!
"Getting back to business, I want to know what is your relationship with the second princess? Before, you mistook the sword spirit of the Ziling Sword for a member of the Protoss. Ling Shan told the White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast frankly about her own affairs, and also believed that she could face herself calmly and tell her what she wanted to know one by one.
The White Spirit Tapir Beast looked at Ling Shan, who was standing in front of him, and hesitated for a moment before replying, "The second princess is my savior, and she once saved my life a thousand years ago...... As for the Protoss, I've heard from others that they say that the Protoss can bring people back to life......"
The words of the White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast echoed in the cave, and after Ling Shan heard this, his expression was a little confused.
Ling Shan said suspiciously: "Could it be that the second princess is really ......?"
"She's not dead! She just sacrificed to the Ancient Tree! "The white spirit tapir beast hates that someone says that her benefactor is dead, and that is the person who saved her life, how can such a kind person pass away like this!
"Sacrifice?" It was a familiar word, for it was the second time he had heard it.
"What do you mean by sacrifice?" Ling Shan didn't dare to rely on his own conjecture to decide, so he couldn't help but ask.
The White Spirit Tapir Beast took a deep breath and said, "Dedicate your body as nutrients and nourishment for the ancient tree, and keep this ancient tree immortal...... She did ...... "Everybody."
When she said this, her eyes were moist, and even after a thousand years, the mention of her still made her feel sad, as if it had happened yesterday.
Ling Shan looked at her and didn't continue to ask, after all, if he asked again now, it would be equivalent to adding fuel to the fire, and if he was not careful, he might even anger the White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast.
Fortunately, the white spirit tapir Luo Beast did not embarrass Ling Shan, and she held back her tears.
"You also know the matter, you are not a wood attribute spirit master, and your spiritual power is not high, so you can't help our second princess at all...... I have no reason to reveal the rest to you again......" The White Spirit Tapir Beast closed its pitiful eyes, stretched out its arms and fingers, and pointed straight out of the hole, as if to ask Ling Shan to leave.
"Good...... Since that's the case, I won't bother you, we are all spirit beasts, I hope that next time I come to you again, I can see you again......" When Ling Shan said this, he was actually afraid.
After all, so many people, if they want to arrest her, it must be hard to hide and hide every day. But if one day, they want to come to the White Spirit Tapir Beast again, but they can't find her...... That's a pity.
The white spirit tapir beast just chuckled, stroked the hair on his forehead and said, "You don't have to worry about me, you still have to worry about yourself...... So close to humans, so close to each other, I just found out that you didn't have a contract with humans? ”
"It seems that I haven't told you yet, after I left the Shoreless Cliff, who saved me......" Ling Shan took two steps forward, stood in front of the white spirit tapir beast, and continued in the direction of the cave entrance: "It was the girl with black curly hair just now, she saved me......"
"The people of Yunxian Mountain ......," the white spirit tapir beast whispered in a deep voice.
She was not disgusted with the humans of Yunxian Mountain, after all, there had been people from Yunxian Mountain, and Edgeworth had entered the ancient ancient city, and at that time, the Ye City Lord had personally received him, so this incident was an indelible memory for her.
"I trust them a lot, they not only saved me, but they are also willing to help me recover my spiritual power, and I am thanks to them today." Ling Shan's words were full of satisfaction, he hoped that the White Spirit Tapir Beast could treat Zi Ling'er and them as partners, but he didn't expect to be refuted by the White Spirit Tapir Beast.
"It seems that to you, those people are all good people, but to me, they are no different from those humans, and the only person I care about the most is the second princess!" After the White Spirit Tapir Beast finished speaking, it walked straight out of the cave. This was not where she lived, and she didn't fully trust Ling Shan, and was reluctant to tell her where she was hiding.
Seeing the back of the white spirit tapir beast about to leave, Ling Shan hurriedly said: "We came this time to find the second princess, one of us knows the second princess!" So please tell us how we can meet her, only when we see her again will we have a chance to know the truth, and only when we know the truth can we help her......"
Ling Shan didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, this time he said it quickly, which was diametrically opposed to his usual slow and leisurely attitude, because if he didn't say it now, he might have to wait until next time.
Now they can talk to the White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast, and it is all thanks to Zi Ling'er that they have found her. Moreover, although she is a high-level spirit beast among spirit beasts, she is completely cut off from the area where Ling Shan lives, and there is no distinction between spirit respect and spirit beast in their ancient ancient city, so they do not know Ling Shan, and they will not succumb to Ling Shan's identity as spirit honor.
For this reason, Ling Shan's exchange this time was obviously a bit difficult.
"One of them knows our second princess? What do you mean by that? The White Spirit Tapir Luo Beast turned her head and looked at Ling Shan in front of her in a panic, she couldn't believe that in the past thousand years, the second princess would actually appear again!
If her soul awakens, she can't leave the ancient city and go to a place as far away as Yunxian Mountain......
However, I heard her master say before that her master is indeed looking for a secret technique, which can extract the soul of the second princess from her body, and temporary departure will not let her die, after all, the premise of casting this secret technique is that one person is needed to cast a spell to protect the soul.
But it seems that every time it ends in failure, because every time the soul is withdrawn, it will be abandoned halfway, and there is no time when Ye Xian'er's soul can be successfully withdrawn......
Therefore, in the past thousand years, even her master has never seen the second princess, let alone a human being that several of their second princesses have never seen?
Ling Shan nodded and said, "Otherwise, we wouldn't have come here to find her because of this." ”
