Xu Lai turned around and walked a few steps, looked around and said, "Your penance room is a little picky, and you don't even prepare a chair." As he spoke, he stepped forward and stepped on the strange tree.

"Be careful!" Hongyuan hurriedly reminded.

As soon as the words fell, countless black threads suddenly appeared from the smooth bark of the strange tree closest to Xu Lai, and they were densely draped down, like a woman's long hair, stretched straight, and suddenly under the hood towards him.

Xu Lai's figure flashed, and he arrived at the tree, his thumb pressed into the palm of his hand, and the other four fingers were clenched into a fist, and he knocked on the waist of the tree.

"This doesn't look like the Taiyin Divine Tree." Xu Lai smiled and sat down on the edge of Hongyuan.

Hongyuan looked at him for a long time and said with a smile: "It's really not, Mr. Xu didn't break it in front of my two apprentices just now, thank you very much." ”

"You're welcome." Xu said, looked at him and said, "Isn't it hard?" ”

Hongyuan was silent for a while, and said with a dumb smile: "It's not hard, that's fake." ”

In fact, there is no Taiyin Divine Tree in this world at all, and these strange trees are just like what Xu Lai and Cai Fei said, a kind of thing called Hair Devil Thorn.

This kind of tree, also known as the ghost tree, only grows in places where yin energy accumulates, and it does not see sunlight, and all people who have seen it are very few.

Although this ghost thorn usually looks strange, it is quite normal, but as soon as a living person approaches and is stimulated by yang energy, this thing will seep out countless tentacles from the body, extremely sharp, like a steel needle, once pierced into the human body, it can suck the yang energy on the human body clean after a while.

When these tentacles crawl out of the body, they are like a woman's long hair falling upside down, so they are called hair ghosts.

Hongyuan is entangled in this hair and ghost thorn, and he will inevitably suffer from the ghost thorn wearing his hair and absorbing yang energy every day. Although Hongyuan must have used some kind of secret method, he formed a parasitic relationship with the ghost thorn, which can save his life without worry.

But this kind of torture-like torture is unavoidable, and if you want to be someone else, I am afraid that you would rather die immediately.

Because of this, Hongyuan was reluctant to let his apprentice know that this was the Taiyin Divine Tree.

Xu Lai also realized Hongyuan's good intentions at that time, so he changed his words and prevented Cai Fei from telling the truth.

"Hehe, don't mention it." Hongyuan smiled and shook his head, looked at Xu Lai for a long time, and then said, "It should be Mr. Xu who blocked the spell for Lao Dao before, right?" ”

Xu Lai didn't hide it and admitted it calmly.

Hongyuan sighed for a long time and said: "Sure enough, it's you, I didn't expect such a big master to come to our view." ”

Last night, Hongyuan was meditating in the penance room, preparing for the next evil disaster, when suddenly the cold hairs on his body stood on end and his scalp was numb.

He didn't know it well, and he knew that someone was using a divine thought type spell towards the Dragon and Tiger Temple.

Relatively speaking, there are very few divine thought spells in the world, but as long as they are divine thought spells, they are extremely terrifying.

Hongyuan was awe-inspiring in his heart, knowing that once he couldn't resist it, the entire Dragon and Tiger Temple would not be left behind. At that time, he used all his strength, using the surging yin qi in the ground to mobilize the surging yin qi in the ground, controlling the talisman array in the coffin, and wanted to fight to the death.

It's just that although the rune array in the Dragon and Tiger View is powerful, it is mainly used to deal with yin evil things, and the effect is extremely limited for the séance technique of worshipping the yin god.

Hongyuan's own spell cultivation could not compete with the Yin Worship God.

At that time, the situation was like a boulder pressing down from the air, Hongyuan wanted to step forward with the determination to die, but who knew that at the moment when the boulder was about to die, he found that someone was blocking him, and directly took the boulder away.

Hongyuan was stunned on the spot, and at the same time, he felt unbelievable.

But what he can be sure of is that there should be a master in the Dragon and Tiger View to help. After that, he went to Miao'an and carefully asked who came to the Dragon and Tiger Temple.

Miao An informed them one by one, and carefully described the situation of everyone.

Hongyuan just pondered after hearing this, and didn't tell Miao An about last night, so that he could greet the guests well.

And tonight, Hongyuan found that the terrifying divine thought spell appeared again, but as soon as he cast it, he was picked up again.

As soon as the evil calamity passed, he asked Miao An to bring Xu Lai and the others over, first, to thank everyone for their help, second, to explain the origin of the evil calamity, and thirdly, to see who the master who blocked the divine thought twice was.

Before everyone came in, Hongyuan guessed that this person should be Sun Dewu, because except for him, the rest of the people were too young. But after carefully observing Sun Dewu, Hongyuan overturned this idea.

This Sun Dewu is full of energy, and his spell level is not high.

Except for Zhou Tong, the rest of the young mages were all good, and the one named Cai Fei was especially good.

But among these people, only the one named Xu Lai made him unable to figure out the depths.

Hongyuan hesitated at the time, thinking to himself that the person who blocked the séance for him was not among these people? Because at Xu Lai's age, he is too young, and he really doesn't look like such a powerful master.

It wasn't until Xu Lai casually punched the hair back to the town that Hongyuan concluded that this was the person he was looking for.

"I also want to thank Mr. Xu for curing my apprentice's old trouble." Hongyuan said.

"You're welcome." Xu said.

Hongyuan hesitated for a moment and said, "I just don't know how Mr. Xu can have the Great Yin and Yang Mantra of our Dragon and Tiger View?" ”

Xu glanced at him and said with a smile: "It should be Xuanzong's Yin and Yang Fu, right?" ”

Hongyuan said excitedly: "You...... You are indeed from the Heavenly Master's Mansion! ”

"Sort of." Xu said.

"Finally...... Finally let me meet the masters of the Heavenly Master's Mansion! Hongyuan's voice trembled, but he didn't pay attention to what he meant by "yes", and he was blindly excited there.

Xu Lai stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, calling his soul back: "Your ancestor master is actually from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, right?" ”

Hongyuan immediately nodded and said, "Exactly!" Our ancestor is indeed a member of the Heavenly Master's Sect, so our Dragon and Tiger View can actually be regarded as a subordinate branch of the Heavenly Master's Mansion! ”

Speaking of this, when he saw Xu coming to see him, he couldn't help but blush, and said, "Of course, the Heavenly Master Mansion has not yet admitted this matter. ”

In fact, I didn't admit it, the Heavenly Master's Mansion didn't know about the existence of the Little Dragon and Tiger Temple at all.

"Is that lame ancestor surnamed Lin?" Just listen to Xu Lai's question.

Hongyuan was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said no.

"That's the surname Zhao." Xu said.

Hongyuan was taken aback and said, "You know? ”

"It turned out to be Zhao Tianming." Xu Lairan.

He was in charge of the Heavenly Master's Mansion for five years, during which time he read a large number of files. I know that during that time 80 years ago, the world was unstable, and there was an endless stream of evil disasters and ghosts in various places, and various sects of the Shumen sent their disciples out of the mountains one after another.

As one of the top sects of the Sect, the Heavenly Master's Mansion will certainly not sit idly by.

Almost half of the men were scattered and sent to the north and south.

And the process was also quite tragic, if Xu Lai remembered correctly, there should be thirty-five disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion who never returned to Longhu Mountain.

Of them, thirty-two people were finally confirmed to have died in another country, and the other three were missing, and they have not been heard from since.

Among these three people, one of them is Zhao Tianming.

And the other person is surnamed Lin, called Lin Rui, and Xu Lai asked him at the beginning. There is another female disciple surnamed Chang, named Chang Shuxin, who is naturally excluded.

Hongyuan sighed, Xu was right, his ancestor was indeed Zhao Tianming. It's just that he never mentions this name to outsiders, and no one knows it.

Hongyuan also learned the details of that year from his master after he became the master.

More than 80 years ago, Zhao Tianming was in his early forties, as if he was already a senior mage in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and he was entrusted with an important task to preside over the overall situation in the area of central Sichuan.

In the month of this year, Zhao Tianming was dealing with a yin matter in southern Sichuan, but his fellow disciples Lin Rui and Chang Shuxin came to the door.

The reason why these two people came was because they encountered a tricky thing, in the Meishan area, several villages were dying overnight.

After Lin Rui and Chang Shuxin went to investigate, they found more and more strange things, and the two of them had no bottom in their hearts, thinking that Zhao Tianming was nearby, so they came over to discuss with him.

After Zhao Tianming heard this, he also felt that this matter was not trivial, and immediately asked another fellow door to temporarily preside over this affairs, and he followed Lin Rui and Chang Shuxin to Meishan.
