Chapter 16: The Heart of the Tree

The noisy and shrill voices sounded in Lu Jia's ears again, and those voices seemed to have life, burrowing into Lu Jia's ears and swimming down the veins, and finally gathered in her heart, as if to devour it.

Lu Jia has never hurt so much as now, not only from earaches, headaches, but also chest pains and heartaches. Jiang Hao heard Lu Jia's breathing fluctuating when he was standing behind him, and he tightened his veins and found that she was already out of breath.

"Girl." Jiang Haoqiang pressed his nervous mood and said in a calm tone: "Girl, the master is here, you have to survive by yourself." Jiang Hao held a talisman in his hand in case Lu Jia couldn't hold on.

Lu Jia fell into a strange space at the moment.

"Master? Wu shape? ”

She saw that it was pitch black around her, and no one responded. The only thing that could be heard was the heavy sound of "dong, dong" war drums. She searched for the source of the sound, and saw a forest of bright red vines intertwined in a red-red halo.

She pushed aside the vines and slowly walked forward, surveying her surroundings, looking closely through the translucent bark of the vines and seeing the viscous liquid flowing through the vines. Finally, in the center of the intertwining and twining, a sleeping girl is supported, as if sleeping in a cage made of vines.

The girl slept quietly, even though the countless red vines were trembling, because the sound waves diffracted at the same frequency were superimposed, so that the loud drumming sound did not wake her in the slightest. It was out of curiosity about the girl that made her less afraid of this strange environment, and she couldn't help but want to find out.

The wind outside the vine forest continued, and before she could get to the cage made of tree vines, the wind formed by the thick fog like ink clouds swirled around the vine forest and kept a certain distance, only a little black mist found a gap and burrowed into the vine forest.

Seeing this scene, the black mist outside the vine forest rushed over one after another. Some of the black fog in the vine forest dissipated when it touched the vines, and I don't know what attracted them in the depths of the vine forest, and in the end, only a little gossamer was left and refused to give up the search.

Now that she was getting closer to the cage made of vines, she distinctly felt that the closer she got to the center of the vine forest, the temperature of the girl's sleeping place became.

When she was within reach of the girl, she saw that the girl's appearance was somewhat similar to her through the last layer of vines, but the color was pale and she looked weak, if it weren't for the faint breath, Lu Jia almost thought she was a dead person.

"You.... Are you still alive? ”

The moment her hand touched the girl, an accident happened. The person who had had a faint breath before began to crack along the spot where her fingertips touched, and the cracks spread like spider webs around her body. In an instant, it was like a statue collapsing, and the dust was scattered.

Lu Jia couldn't help but hate herself, if it weren't for her arrival, that girl wouldn't have been wiped out. It happened so suddenly that she didn't have time to ask any questions. At this time, the reddish halo of the vine has also dimmed, and gradually turned into ordinary branches. The black mist outside the vine forest also knew that something had happened inside, and the overwhelming tight vine forest rushed towards her.

Immediately after, a tremendous force pulled her out of this space. It was so fast that she didn't even see it, and some of the dust that the girl had turned into just now had burrowed into her body, hidden in the depths of her sea of consciousness, and formed a transparent figure that seemed to be sleeping.

"Girl, are you awake and say something?"

"Wake up. It's all like this, and you still let her wake up on her own? It's really not biological. ”

.......

Lu Jia took off an evil spirit talisman from his forehead, put away the compass and said coldly, "I'm awake." Who woke me up just now? ”

"I can't pull you out, the resentful spirits that entered your body just now will use this body of yours as a nest, and they will fight and devour each other, and you will become a Gu cultivator......"

Wu Xing hadn't finished speaking, and his whole body flew out upside down without seeing how Lu Jia made a move.

"Girl!" As soon as Jiang Hao said these two words, he heard a cold voice: "You also follow him!" Then I heard the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground with a "bang".

Lu Jiajing walked out, and the wall of Guangji Tower collapsed with a gap, and after she walked over, the wall closed automatically without a trace. But as soon as she got out of the wall, she fell to the ground.

When Lu Jia woke up, he saw Jiang Hao carving a palm-sized peachwood sword with a knife next to him. Knowing that Lu Jia was awake, Jiang Hao took a big step back before asking tentatively, "Girl, are you awake?" ”

"Hmm."

"Are you really awake this time?"

"Hmm. Master, I'm hungry. ”

"That's right, this is my apprentice back." Jiang Hao walked to Lu Jia's bed and said with a smile: "Get up, the master will take you to find something delicious." ”

"She is now weak and can only drink porridge." Wu Xing crossed his arms and leaned against the wall of the door, looking at the master and apprentice.

Although Lu Jia said that he was grateful to Wu Xing, the person who helped him several times, he couldn't say much about Wu Xing's coldness and the cold style of "I don't care about you talking". So he didn't answer his words and continued to ask Jiang Hao: "Master, how long have I been asleep?" ”

"It didn't take long, it was only two days."

"It's been two days, no wonder I'm so hungry."

Jiang Hao responded to this precious apprentice's request, saying that he would find a place to eat as soon as he was hungry. I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, the place to eat this time is still the restaurant where Boss Tao was last time.

Lu Jia has been in a coma for the past two days, Jiang Hao has not been idle, and he heard that this proprietress is called Tao Ji, and she has been supporting a restaurant alone in this place for ten years. As for how Tao Ji came from and where she came from, no one knows. Digging around and digging to find out that it is said that this Tao Ji came from the other side of the Yalu River, and the household registration and everything else were helped by Boss Huang.

Boss Tao was not here today, Boss Huang's phone was not connected, the three of them ordered a few bowls of porridge and vegetarian dishes, Jiang Hao felt that his stomach was not even on the bottom after drinking a bowl of porridge, and he still wanted a meat dish. While eating, we chatted: Eh, what do you say she is? ”

Of course, Wu Xing knew who "she" Jiang Hao was talking about. After taking a sip of porridge, he didn't raise his head and said, "Don't you know?" ”

Jiang Hao and Wu Xing are also familiar with each other, otherwise they wouldn't have taken him with them before this trip. Because I casually started a hexagram: there is no danger. For the sake of safety, I still bring this great god with me.

Jiang Hao didn't feel embarrassed and continued to talk to himself: Aren't I unsure? How can you have the right vision of the gods. ”

"Again, I'm not an immortal." Wu Xing raised his head and said to him seriously.

Jiang Hao hurriedly changed the subject: "How can you be sure it's her?" ”

"Wuxingmu, although I don't know why she doesn't have the slightest demonic aura on her, but she is neither a human nor a ghost. The night before yesterday, when your apprentice fell into the illusion, the root of the tree I grabbed from the black fog had been made into a peachwood sword by you. ”

Wu Xiang encountered a problem that he couldn't figure out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore and continued to drink his porridge with his head down.
