"Elder Jia, you're back." Someone was talking at the entrance of the cave.

The dragon spirit only heard the sound and didn't see the person, and the place where the sound came from was obviously very close, but he couldn't find where the person was.

Old Jia smiled and said, "Old fellow, I'm not wrong, I'm the only one in the village who can go to the valley mouth to bring people back." ”

"Oh, these guys look good, they should help us." The voice was very low, simple, and the speed of speech was very slow, but there was no one to be seen.

"I'll go, is it invisible?" The dragon spirit looked at it with wide eyes, trying to find the place where the light was disturbing.

"Heh, heh, heh." The honest voice smiled and said, "Don't look for it anymore, I'm right in front of you." ”

"In front of you?" The dragon spirit was very puzzled, wasn't it a big tree in front of him.

He looked at it, and finally saw what was talking—it was the tree!

I saw that there was a circular bulge on the trunk of the tree, which was full of human height, forming a human face, and he was looking at himself with a smile.

"Huh!?" The dragon spirit's pupils dilated, and he rubbed his eyes and carefully examined the tree man's face.

It is the size of a human face, except that the entire face is integrated into the trunk of the tree, and the exposed skin is covered with the same rough bark as the trunk.

"The tree has grown into a fine spirit! There are really a lot of monsters in this abandoned village. ”

"Ahem." He was a little out of shape, hurriedly straightened his waist, and asked Old Jia with his hands behind his back, "What is it?" ”

"Hahaha." Old A suddenly burst out laughing, pointing at the tree and saying, "He said what you are, hahaha, laughed at me." ”

He glanced at the dragon spirit who was about to get angry, ran away from the distance, crossed his waist and said, "But don't be angry, this person is that bird dragon, and his ability is indeed amazing." ”

"However, when he saw me, he even called me a pangolin and called me a fool! And still ...... Stinged me with a stinger! ”

"Look at my face, it's swollen on both sides, and it hurts to death!" The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and the armor pieces on his body stood up.

"Heh, heh, heh. Never mind. "The tree man was good-tempered, and he didn't mean to be angry at all.

He said slowly: "I am Amu, and the villagers call me Mu Lao." I'm not a demon of grass and trees, I'm a human, a human wizard. ”

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said, "Long Zi wait a minute, I will show up to see you." ”

As Mu Lao spoke, a face suddenly protruded forward, and the head that had been sunk into the trunk became more and more obvious, and then the neck was also exposed.

Until a wooden head was fully formed, he shook his head, gritted his teeth and stretched forward, tearing his body off the tree in a bit.

"Click......"

With a tooth-aching sound, a large piece of humanoid wood slashed from the trunk of the tree, turning into a wooden figure the size of an ordinary person, and a large scar was left on the trunk.

"Whew, it's been melting in for three days and haven't been separated, it's almost growing and strong, and I almost can't separate."

The wooden man walked up to the dragon spirit stiffly, bent his legs, and said respectfully, "Venerable son of the dragon, welcome you and your warriors to the Abandoned Man Village. ”

"......" The dragon spirit and the few people who had just come out of the cave were stunned.

Okay, the wooden people have come out, I don't know if this guy will bleed, whether he has internal organs, and whether he can be used as firewood.

Everyone's expressions were very strange, and the dragon spirit reacted and hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I'...... That one...... Is it Mulao? ”

"Heh, heh, heh. I'm Mu Lao, and the village sent me to wait here for you. ”

Mu Lao's speed of speaking one word at a second made Long Yi feel irritable, wiped his mouth, and waved his hand vigorously: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and take us into the village." ”

"Heh, heh, heh. Good. The good-natured wooden man smirked, turned slowly, and walked like a rusty robot, slower than a tortoise.

"Shhh Seeing him like that, the dragon spirit took a sharp breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, turned his head to find Huang Cai, and glanced at her.

Huang Cai walked quickly to the front with an embarrassed face, and said to the wooden man who was walking at a fast pace: "Mu Lao, we are still in a hurry to eat, let's go first, and you will slowly follow behind." ”

As she spoke, she strode as if she were fleeing, and the dragon spirit and the team behind hurriedly followed her, looking curiously as they passed the wooden man.

"Heh, heh, heh. Okay, you guys go first, and I'll follow. ”

The wooden man was still laughing, and by the time he finished speaking, Huang Cai and the dragon spirit had already walked away.

The smile on Mu Lao's face faded, and gradually turned into a sad appearance, and he whispered to himself: "When I sent someone to come, I brought them here, but when I went back, I asked them to go by themselves." ”

"Don't you know I'm walking slowly? If you walk back like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back until it gets dark. I hate that old pangolin, even he doesn't care about me anymore. ”

The wooden man walked slowly and dejectedly, and a long line passed by him, and no one thought to help him.

"Alas!" Seeing that the people were about to run out, Mu Lao sighed, and finally decided that it was better to be cheeky and ask for help.

He looked at the team around him and said to a middle-aged man holding a crocodile, "Can you give me a ride?" ”

The middle-aged man was Jiang Dayu, and he didn't understand the situation for a while, so he was stunned and said, "Take you, how to bring it?" ”

Mu Lao said with a sad eye: "I walk slowly, please take me to walk with me." ”

"Oh." Jiang Dayu understood, and smiled cheerfully: "No problem." ”

As soon as he tugged on the rope in his hand, the crocodile bit Mu Lao.

"No, no, no...... Yes! Mu Lao was frightened when he saw the crocodile's mouth attacking, and even the speed of speech suddenly became faster, but before he could explain, he was bitten sideways by the crocodile in his mouth.

"Ahh He shook his hands and feet and screamed in horror: "I'm not a wooden man, I'm also made of meat, I'll be bitten to death!" ”

"It's not wood."

Jiang Dayu clarified a question, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, my house crocodile won't bite you, as long as you don't move, your thick skin will definitely not break." ”

He pulled the crocodile and continued to hurry, Mu Lao didn't dare to struggle anymore, he was so nervous, and slowly found that the crocodile really didn't bite him, but just took himself in his mouth gently, and put down the heart he was carrying.

"Uh-huh, yes, yes. It's much more comfortable than being carried. Those guys, like a piece of wood, resisted and threw me, so rough, or this crocodile Sven. ”

He was held by a giant crocodile in his mouth and walked upside down, feeling the rhythmic shaking, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smug smile.

"It doesn't take any effort at all, and it walks fast, it's not too comfortable, why didn't I think of domesticating a beast to take me on the road?" Mu Lao thought with his dull brain, closed his eyes and enjoyed it.
