Chapter 122: The Blood Tree
"Uncle Wei, do you know Dr. Wei Renxi?" The old man's name reminded me of Wei Renxi, and I asked unconsciously.
Wei Renshi nodded: "Yes, he is also from our Weijia Village, and he is my uncle and brother, but he is a distant relative, his family's medical skills are ancestral, and whoever in our village has a little headache and brain fever goes to his house for treatment, but he moved to the city very early." ”
"Doctor Wei's medical skills are very powerful," I remembered Yanjing's injury that night, it can be said that it is a miracle that he can get better so quickly, maybe Wei Renxi is really a ghost doctor, "Is there anyone else in his family?" Every time I saw him, it seemed like he was alone. ”
Wei Renshi sighed: "He should have a daughter, he is old and has a daughter, but his wife died because of difficult childbirth, and a big reason why he moved out was the death of his wife, and the two of them were very affectionate at the beginning." ”
Life is not as good as usual, it is estimated that Wei Renxi's wife has some disease and can't have children, and later Wei Renxi was cured and had a daughter, but his wife died because of this, and it is normal for Wei Renxi to leave Weijia Village with sadness and self-blame.
The space in front of me suddenly opened up, I didn't speak, I looked ahead intently, and always watched my feet, it was full of traps, and one wrong step was a dead end.
Standing at the entrance of Yongdao, in front of which is half a football field in the size of a space, the ground is paved with dark red stones, in the center there is a whole dark red tree, this tree is fifteen meters high, the whole crown is like an umbrella, spread out horizontally for more than ten meters, the branches are thick and strong with muscles and flesh-like lines, the lines are bright red, from a distance it looks like the flesh and blood of a person after being skinned.
The pinprick-like leaves are densely arranged neatly, slanting outward from the middle like waves, and the tips of each leaf are shimmering with a dark red halo, like a sharp sword pointing diagonally at the sky.
"What kind of tree is this?" I didn't let out an exclamation, this is the first time I've seen this kind of tree, and I don't have to guess to know that it's dangerous, so many sword-like leaves will definitely make people into hedgehogs if they fly out.
Liu Qianying looked at it and said: "I saw this tree last time I came, and I deliberately found relevant information on the Internet, it is very similar to the desert strange dragon's blood tree, the dragon's blood tree crown is like an umbrella, the needle-shaped blades are inclined upward, and the leaf body is V-shaped to collect every drop of rainwater and flow down the branches to the roots, and the leaves will secrete oil, which can reduce the loss of water." ”
"Maybe it's a mutation." I groaned, whether it was a dracaena or not, it didn't help me much, because I needed to know the properties of this weird dracaena in the past, not a name.
"It's the Tree of Blood." A voice came from behind me, and when I looked back, it was Yanjing.
"How do you know?" I didn't ask why Yanjing was here, because this guy replied that it must be that sentence to hell, and it was in vain to ask a question, or it was more direct to ask directly about this resentful blood tree.
Yan Jing glanced at it with a smile, and I saw that Wei Renshi's body trembled obviously, and even Liu Qianying seemed to shudder, Yan Jing snapped his fingers: "I once saw the introduction of this resentful blood tree in a book called Ghost Thing Tongjian. ”
The blood tree was transplanted back by the monks who went to sea two thousand years ago, the crown is like an umbrella, the trunk is like a skinned human body, if you want to cultivate the necessary war-torn place, the root system of dry bones must enter the blood mud, so that a hundred years can be counted as living, and after five hundred years, it has a special ability, that is, to release the sword and leaf to hunt all animals and people.
Yan Jing looked at the resentful blood tree in front of him and said with a smile: "This resentful blood tree is estimated to be a thousand years old, and I don't know if it has become a spirit, it should not be, if it becomes a spirit, it will be able to move automatically, and we will have been attacked a long time ago." ”
"Chengjing, isn't that a dryad?" Although I've seen ghosts, I've heard the word demon for the first time, and I always thought it was a legend, but now what Yanjing said has a nose and eyes, I have to believe it, even ghosts, let alone demons.
"Abnormality is a demon, a demon is not necessarily a goblin, some things have existed for too long, and they can make a lot of abnormal actions, this is a demon, as for the goblin monsters mentioned in those books, they are also a kind of demon."
I nodded, this Yanjing knows a lot of things, more competent than Liu Qianying, a supernatural lover, think about how much ghost information this guy has on the computer where he works, you know how much effort he has put in, and now I really believe that he really came to see ghosts.
As a crazy supernatural enthusiast, watching ghosts is probably the biggest thrill.
"Having said so much, then it can be passed."
"It's very simple, wrap your feet in a cloth and cover your mouth and nose, and don't breathe in the process of passing, a tree is a tree after all, there is no sense of sight and smell, it depends on the perception of temperature and the change of airflow, it is easy to deceive."
"Who knows if what you say is true or not." Liu Qianying said a word next to her, and she seemed to be very uninterested in Yanjing.
Yanjing just glanced at Liu Qianying, "Then I'll go and show you first." ”
Yanjing said, walked over directly, and I carefully reminded: "Yanjing, you didn't wrap your feet and mouth with a cloth. ”
"It's okay, I have a breath-holding method, it's useless to cover my mouth without ventilation for such a journey, isn't it easier to talk about my feet, haven't you seen me wearing shoes?" Yan Jing had already walked up to me when he spoke, and it seemed that the breath he was talking could also cause the resentful blood tree to react, and he didn't dare to take any chances.
I think about it, two thousand years ago, people were not as rich as they are now, shoes are a luxury for many people, except for important occasions many people are barefoot, it is in this way that the person who compils the book of ghosts and things will specifically point out to wrap feet in cloth, but now it is two thousand years later, no one walks without shoes, and this article is almost invalid.
The times are advancing, and many things are also changing, at this time, Yanjing has already walked over again, and when he left, he glanced at Liu Qianying and Wei Renshi, snapped his fingers and strode towards the opposite side.
Yanjing's speed was very fast, and he had already walked to the Resentful Blood Tree, and I was nervous, looking at him intently, at this time Liu Qianying grinned and said loudly: "It's so simple, I can do it too." ”
Liu Qianying said and walked out of the corridor, but before she finished her words at this time, I saw that the hot breath exhaled by Liu Qianying was like igniting the insidious power of the explosives pile, and the blood tree suddenly trembled, and the blood-like lines on the trunk flowed red blood like blood vessels.
