Chapter Fifty-Eight: Distant Relatives and Close Relatives

The Qiming clan, as the world's largest wealthy family, is not as luxurious as outsiders think.

Although this is only a very small branch of the Qiming clan, Chishui was led all the way by the young man, but he also saw some doorways.

The guards of the entire settlement are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the face seems to be calm, but in fact, the slightest noise may attract attention from everywhere.

For example, the appearance of a stranger like her, who has been investigated by more than a dozen divine senses along the way.

Of course, this is very hidden.

Chi Shui was not idle, in addition to really wondering what kind of trouble they were getting into, he also had a preliminary communication with the little boy, and she also knew that the little boy's name was Yan Qi.

Yan Qi also did what he said, he had the kind of bright and upright temperament that the big clan could only shape with careful cultivation, and seemed to believe that Chi Shui was not a bad person, so in addition to leading the way, he also carefully told Chi Shui some allusions and legends of their Qiming clan.

Chishui also listened with relish.

As one of the few ancient relics that has been inherited to this day and has not been cut off, the Qiming clan is also quite lucky compared to most other ethnic groups.

In the final analysis, this is because of the bloodline talent of the Qiming clan, although it is a gold system, but it is not the way of killing that everyone takes for granted, but chooses a very partial way of life.

It is not easy to give up the Lord and turn away.

Although I don't know how the ancestors of the Qiming clan thought about it, the Qiming clan was indeed lucky to survive until today.

Of course, this is just a settlement, and its real clan land is secret, and only the most core and elite clansmen know where it is, and they outsiders don't think about it.

After passing through the area inhabited by ordinary people, further on, is the core area of this settlement.

To Chishui's surprise, this so-called core area is not an ordinary house building, but a tree?

This tree is not tall, at least compared to the body of the mother tree in Xiaohuo's memory, it is too far away, and more importantly, this is still a crooked neck tree, it is not a regular growth.

Rather, it was like a snake, the main trunk grew close to the ground, and the branches on it seemed to be somewhat affected, and it took a long time to bend and bend for a long time before it seemed to finally wake up and begin to grow upward?

In short, this is a strange tree that does not follow the usual path.

Perhaps because of its strange shape, it is very suitable for building a treehouse, so there are many treehouses with different styles on the whole tree.

And because of its proximity to the mountain wall, it looks quite chic at a glance.

Chishui's mind moved slightly, and his eyes lingered all over the trees.

Seeing this, Yan Qi introduced with a little pride: "This is the clan tree of our branch, a branch that was cut from the ancestral clan tree when it first branched, and now it has grown to such a size."

Chi Shui asked curiously, "What kind of tree is this?" I've never seen it before! ”

She asked directly, she had seen a lot of knowledge over the years, but this was the first time she had seen this kind of tree, not because of its peculiar shape, but because of its trunk branches and leaves, which were ordinary at a glance, but different from ordinary trees when you looked closely.

Of course she can feel the difference, how can she say it?

The special smell that is implied and unvented is similar to the sprouted watermelon seedling in her ring space, and the fresh, long, and indescribable smell that it exudes when she is occasionally emotional.

Chi Shui had smelled it once before when he was snatching straw dolls with watermelon seedlings.

Then she lost her mind for ten years, and when she woke up, she had no memory at all, and she didn't have any perception or growth, as if, that ten years of time disappeared out of thin air?

Since then, Chishui has stayed away from watermelon seedlings.

If she hadn't seen this strange tree now, she would have forgotten about that watermelon seedling?

Yan Qi didn't know the twists and turns in Chishui's heart, and said with a little pride: "This is the World Tree, according to the classics left by the ancestors, this World Tree, cultivated to the highest level, can support an entire world. ”

When Chi Shui heard this, his eyes widened and he was shocked.

But it wasn't because of Yan Qi's words, but because of the name of the World Tree, which instantly reminded her of the reincarnation realm she had been to more than once.

And the tree of reincarnation

Is it what she thinks?

"Don't listen to Yan Qihu, he just flipped through a few travelogues written by his ancestors, and he believed it." A gentle voice suddenly interjected, interrupting Chi Shui's thoughts.

Chishui looked back and couldn't help but light up.

It's beautiful!

Even if she is also a woman, Chishui has to admire, her peerless appearance, her delicate figure, and her elegant and clean clothes and accessories, she is graceful and elegant, as elegant as a fairy.

Especially that pair of golden eyes, unlike Yan Qi, is that it is very restrained and quiet, and together with her peerless appearance, there is no trace of domineering, and it is very soft.

Chishui didn't even notice at first glance?

This man is not simple!

Chi Shui then reported to his family and repeated Tong Yanqi's remarks.

Yan Qi also hurriedly said: "This is our clan elder. ”

"I've seen the clan elders." Chi Shui saluted very politely, well-behaved, and stable, just like her.

The old man looked at her with a smile and said, "It's a guest from afar, there is no need to be like this, but Yan Qi, a stubborn child, has neglected you." ”

Chi Shui hurriedly replied: "No, fortunately, Yan Qi led the way, otherwise I guess I wouldn't be able to find here." ”

Regardless of whether this is polite or polite, the two sides have officially met anyway.

The elder of the clan invited Chishui into the tree house to explain in detail.

Chi Shui obeyed his fate, but when he crossed the trunk of the tree, he couldn't help but glance at it a few more times.

"Equatorial friends are interested in this tree?"

Chishui turned around and smiled: "It's the first time I've seen it, so I want to see more." ”

She said frankly, and the old man of the clan was not displeased, but his hand stroked the trunk of the tree next to him, his eyes looked up, and he sighed: "So many years have passed in a flash."

Chi Shui didn't know how many years "so many years" meant, and she couldn't estimate the age of this tree, but she knew that the clan elder in front of her should really be the ancestor of the clan.

Although it can't be seen from her face at all, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a twenty-eight girl, but her eyes can't deceive people.

The old man retracted his gaze, and saw Chishui standing quietly on the side, but it was Yan Qi next to him, who looked like that, and couldn't help but have a little floating in his eyes, and his mind was floating at first glance, and he wanted to run away?

The old man of the clan was not angry, waved his hand, and asked Yan Qi to retreat along with a dry servant, as well as the attendants who followed her, before he said to Chi Shui: "Are you interested in this tree?" Or is it because the name of the tree mentioned by Yan Qi is interested? ”

Chi Shui was a little surprised, she didn't expect the other party to be so keen, but she still said truthfully: "I have heard of the World Tree before, but I have never associated it with a real tree. ”

Because as far as she could see, and later asked her predecessors, the World Tree, that is, the tree of reincarnation that Xiaohuo saw in the realm of reincarnation, had long since detached from the existence of the entity.

It's not so much that what Xiaohuo sees is a tree, but that it's just an imaginary image that Xiaohuo fantasizes about sketching when he sees the World Tree?

It is said that the tree of reincarnation that everyone sees is different.

As for what the tree of reincarnation looks like?

Then it is estimated that only those who know will know.

The clan elder smiled and said, "Your instinct is right, this is indeed not the World Tree. ”

When Chi Shui heard this, he was slightly disappointed.

I don't want the old man to say again: "But although this is not the World Tree, it is inextricably related to the World Tree, and it can barely be regarded as a distant relative of the World Tree!" ”

She said casually, but Chishui's heart was shocked, and his eyes couldn't help but cast on the tree again.

The leaves fluttered, and I didn't know if it was in response to what the clan elder said.

The old man patted the trunk of the tree and said, "Old man, we are all the same, and there is still a long way to go."

This is definitely a feeling, and Chishui also feels the same way.

How not?

The Tree Clan and the Human Race, in fact, are no different, they also have a bloodline inheritance, and they have sacrificed some things because of the continuity of the bloodline, and then they have been struggling to pursue those who have been lost, trying to find the right path taken by the sages?

But how easy is that?

For a while, neither of them spoke, and they seemed to be immersed in this rare quiet atmosphere.

Then they came back to their senses and smiled.

It's just that another waiter came to report in a hurry, and the two of them didn't have time to explain in detail, the old man of the clan went to deal with important matters by himself, and Chi Shui, with the waiter, was arranged in a small tree house near the periphery.

As soon as the door was closed, Chishui's divine sense entered the ring space.

The ring space at this time is very different from when she first contracted.

With the supply of spiritual springs, the entire space is full of vitality, and all spiritual fields have puppets planted with corresponding spiritual plants.

In the distance, the green mountains and green waters, the aura is dense, the power of the laws of heaven and earth has been formed, there is light, there is a sun and a moon, although it is a little vague, it is enough for a side of the landscape.

Chishui entered the manor, and didn't care about the fights between Xiao Ding and Xiao Silkworm, and just hurried to the medicine garden in the manor.

The consciousness is released, like a carpet search.

Finally, in the most remote corner, when he found the watermelon seedling hiding under a large leaf, I have to say that Chishui was relieved.

The watermelon seedlings found that Chishui appeared, and they still wanted to run, but they didn't forget to take the straw puppet away before running?

Chishui: ""

How attached is it to the straw doll?

Chishui almost instantly went up, scooped up the whole watermelon seedling, raised his hands in the air, and watched it with wide eyes.

O World Tree!

This is a close relative of the World Tree!

She had already discovered that the aura hidden by the Qiming Clan's tree outside was far inferior to this watermelon seedling.

The tree is a distant relative of the World Tree, so it's definitely a close relative of the World Tree
