Chapter 197: Ice and Fire

The roots of the trees squirmed faster and faster, and all the insects flew to the top of the cave, and soon gathered together like a very bright light.

After a while, the roots gradually gathered. The roots of the trees slowly formed a human form, and even though it formed a human form, there were still a lot of whiskers flashing on the outside of the human form, which looked very scary.

Uncle Yi sensed the dangerous information from this human figure, the tree in front of him may have become a spirit, but the cultivation has deviated, and he was born by sucking flesh and blood, and the disappearance and activity of the old man may be the ghost of this essence tree.

After a while, a face appeared on the figure, and looking at that face, it turned out to be the old man who disappeared a few days ago. However, at this time, the eyes of this face are no longer pure white pupils, but a pair of eyes glowing with green light.

This tree spirit finally appeared, and when Uncle Yi and the four of them saw this tree spirit, they already understood that only by destroying this tree spirit could they completely protect the villagers of this place. Although they sensed the aura of danger from the dryad, they rushed forward without hesitation.

In the eyes of the tree spirit, these people should have been their own nourishment, and they have never met such a Mr. Yin and Yang, and the original Mr. Yin and Yang in the village is just a second knife, and a little illusion can confuse it, so there has been no way to fight it, I didn't expect that there would be such four people suddenly popping out.

This tree spirit must have existed for a long time, but it couldn't speak, just roared and rushed towards Uncle Yi and the four of them. Uncle Yi and the four of them all used their best skills, fighting with the tree spirits, and at the same time guarding against the roots of the trees that could attack at any time.

That fight can be said to be the most dangerous thing that Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao can experience in their lives, although they used all their skills, but the tree spirit is too powerful, coupled with the tree roots attacking from time to time, it also makes Uncle Yi and them a little weak.

In the end, they tried to form a quadripartite yang formation to deal with the tree spirits, but this array only resisted the tree spirits for a while, but it also caused a lot of damage to the tree spirits. It's a pity that this kind of injury completely angered the tree spirit, and it was even more difficult for Uncle Yi and the four of them to fight each other.

It's another big war, as for the specific situation of the big war, Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao didn't tell in detail, but I looked at the faces of the two of them and knew that this big battle must be very difficult, and the result must be very tragic.

Uncle Yi paused when he said this, his expression was a little sad, the Taoist hat itself was an old fritter, how could he not see the meaning of Uncle Yi's expression, and in an instant, the face of the Taoist hat was also gloomy.

After this battle, the tree spirit was wiped out, but Uncle Yi and the four of them also paid a heavy price, Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao were almost seriously injured, the senior brother was sacrificed, and the second senior brother was also seriously injured.

After the dryads were destroyed, all the roots of the trees were gone, and they began to show signs of withering. After the dryads were eliminated, the old man's body appeared in front of them. Uncle Yi, Principal Zhao, and the second senior brother forcibly took the corpses of the descendants, the old man, and the senior brother out of the cave.

When they saw the villagers coming around, Uncle Yi and the three of them couldn't hold it anymore and fainted. When Uncle Yi and the three of them woke up, the villagers were very grateful to them and carefully healed them.

At that time, the medical conditions were not very good, but the villagers had their own special healing medicine, which was very effective. After almost recuperating for more than half a month, Uncle Yi and the three of them have also healed their injuries. The corpses of the descendants and the elder brother, the villagers all helped to arrange the funeral, and the body of the old man was also sent back to the coffin.

During this period, Uncle Yi and the others also told the villagers about the process of eliminating demons, which made the villagers very surprised and curious. Principal Zhao is very good at telling stories, and this incident has also been compiled into a commentary by him, but he can not tell about the death of the senior brother, and he is not willing to mention it more, and the villagers love to listen to the story.

The second senior brother became silent after being cured, he was like a brother and sister with the senior brother, and the sacrifice of the senior brother in that cave stimulated him a lot, so that he basically did not communicate with the villagers except for talking to Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao, and even did not want to hear about it again.

But this joy did not last long, and one event broke this harmony. It had been almost a month since this incident, and some people in the village had gone up the mountain to cut firewood, but in the end they came down from the mountain in a panic and ran straight to the village chief's house.

Soon, the village chief summoned the people in the village and announced the shocking news to the people in the village, the sacred tree on the mountain had withered! The villagers were so terrified by the news that it felt like the sky was falling.

Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao were very surprised by this matter, but the second senior brother just stayed in the room and ignored the matter. Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao went to ask the villagers, and after the villagers' explanation, they learned that there was a sacred tree in the depths of this mountain, and the sacred tree was very thick, and more than a dozen adults could hug it.

No one knows how many years this tree has been growing on the mountain, and according to the oldest person in the village, it was already that big when she was young.

According to the legend in the village, this tree is a miracle, and the village regards the tree as the incarnation of the mountain god, and will be worshiped with three animals every year, even in those ten years.

Although the village chief does not believe in ghosts and evil spirits, he believes in the theory of the mountain gods. Many people in the village have seen the strangeness of the tree, so the village chief will believe that this is also a contradiction, but it also exists.

The tree grows luxuriantly every year, even in the winter when everything is dying. However, the man who went up the mountain to cut firewood looked at this sacred tree from a distance on the mountain today, but found that there was something unusual, and when he got closer, he found that the sacred tree in the minds of the villagers had begun to wither, so he hurriedly ran down the mountain.

The villagers hurriedly went up the mountain again, and Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao also followed. The villagers walked all the way into the depths of the mountain, and after walking for a while, they reached their destination. There is indeed a big tree there, and the tree is very big, and standing under the tree feels very small.

But at this time, all the leaves on the tree have fallen off, the tree is bare, and the branches look very dry, and then you can touch the bark on the book, and then look at the roots of the exposed ground around the tree, it looks even softer, and it can be broken with a single hand.

After confirming, the villagers returned to the village again. The villagers discussed this matter together, although Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao did a great favor in the village, they were still outsiders, so they could not participate in this discussion.

This discussion lasted for a day and a night, and Uncle Yi and the three of them stayed in the house, waiting for the results to appear. Early the next morning, the villagers gathered at the door of the house where Uncle Yi and his family lived, and Uncle Yi knew that something was wrong when he looked at the expressions of these villagers.

The expressions on the faces of the villagers were gloomy, and Uncle Yi walked up to the village chief and asked, "Village chief, have you discussed the results?" The village chief hummed heavily, and then asked in a heavy tone, "Did you kill a tree spirit in that cave some time ago?" ”

This matter was compiled into a commentary by Principal Zhao and told the whole village, and when asked at this time, Uncle Yi immediately understood what was going on. However, looking at the situation in front of him, he could only answer helplessly: "Yes." ”

"Okay, then you just admit that our sacred tree was destroyed by a few of you! You have to give us an explanation! The village chief said sternly, his tone getting heavier and heavier, and even the last sentence was faintly nasal.

Uncle Yi had already understood that this must be the case just now, and he never thought that such a demon tree that sucked the flesh and blood of people and animals would be regarded as a sacred tree by these villagers in front of him, and it was even considered to be the incarnation of the mountain god.

Principal Zhao's temper immediately attacked: "What's the matter with you villagers, we kindly helped you get rid of the man-eating demon tree, and now you want to trouble us, you people touch your chest to see if you still have a conscience?" ”

Principal Zhao simply shouted, and this roar silenced the villagers. At the beginning, the four of them went down to the cave, not only found the old man's body, but also rescued the afterlife, and they also knew that the afterlife was in the hands of the tree spirit, and they also sacrificed a person in order to exterminate the tree spirit Uncle Yi, which is obvious to all.

The villagers were relatively simple and gradually fell silent. But after a while, a voice suddenly shouted: "That's our sacred tree, they said that the offspring was killed by the tree spirit, who saw it, who knows if they did it!" ”

As soon as this voice came out, the villagers made a fuss again, and all of them began to angrily accuse Uncle Yi and the others, and the village chief could hardly control the scene. Uncle Yi, Principal Zhao, and the second senior brother looked at the villagers in front of them, all speechless.

What else can you say in the face of such a scene, and who will listen when you say it? Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao had this compassion in their hearts in addition to grief and indignation at that time. It's a pity that these villagers don't know the truth, and mistake the demon tree for the god tree, and the good people for the bad people.

At first, the villagers just blamed, and later even developed into an attempt to beat up. Principal Zhao couldn't be silent anymore when he saw this kind of scene, and while dodging these villagers, he suppressed his temper and reasoned with these villagers.

The second senior brother was already very sad because of the death of the senior brother, and he didn't expect that the death of the senior brother would be exchanged for the bad words of these villagers, and the anger in his heart made him almost go up and fight with the villagers.

Uncle Yi and Principal Zhao hurriedly stopped the second senior brother, feeling that this was not a solution, and the three of them had to escape. The three of them wandered around, carrying not many things and basically carrying them with them, so they didn't need to take anything, so they found a gap and ran out of the village.
