Zhan Tao has seen many trees in his life, including the enchanting red maple tree, the delicate and romantic cherry tree, the evergreen and immortal pine and cypress, and the graceful willow. But this talking and eating tree, Zhan Tao was born to see it for the first time, not to mention that this tree was a chatter, just asked if it was Shaoqing, and it talked for more than ten minutes.

"Seeing and laughing, it is not often that people talk to it, so it is difficult to see people, and it is inevitable that I will be emotional. ”

An inexplicable sound came from behind, Zhan Tao was shocked, turned around and saw a fat man with a big belly and a short and strong body, between the blurred dividing line between strong and fat, it is extremely difficult to classify accurately. In addition to being fat, this guy also has a characteristic, he is not allowed to bite words and spit words very quickly, and he has to be very focused to hear what he is saying.

"Who are you?" Zhan Tao guessed that the identity of the visitor was extraordinary, but he didn't dare to associate it with Shaoqing, one person under ten thousand people, the second person who had the right to cover [Dali Temple], was actually like this? This is probably the inertia of human traditional thinking, I only think that excellent people should be good in all aspects, and those with high status and prominent status should have elegant and extraordinary conversations.

And the facts are always contrary to the truth, Xiaopang held his belly up, pretending to be a master and said, "Shaoqing is me." ”

"So what is it?" Zhan Tao wondered, pointing to the tree for a solution.

"My pet. Shaoqing shook to the edge of the tree with one step, stroked the rough and cracked bark and said, "Leave it here, and no one will talk to him, it's really lonely." ”

Zhan Tao smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid that the people who talked to it are dead, and the half of the arm in its mouth must be the remains of the superior victim." ”

Shaoqing took a breath of cold air and stared at the strange tree with wide eyes, as if he didn't know each other. The strange tree raised its branches and leaves, shaking off the minced flesh of countless organs, as if it had rained blood. The fishy rain fell, blocked by the invisible barrier around Shaoqing, so that he didn't get wet. He was a little annoyed, scratched his head and stomped his feet, "Didn't I tell you, don't eat people indiscriminately, human flesh can't be digested, why can't you listen to it?"

The complaint between these words, but it was a real concern in the ears, Zhan Tao was cold, and saw that Shaoqing's eyes were a little more cold, but he was born with a kind appearance, and he was a demon who cares about human life in his bones.

"I have summoned you to consult with you on important matters. After greeting the strange tree, Shaoqing turned around again, approached Zhan Tao and said in person.

Zhan Tao thought for a moment and said honestly, "I don't think I can help you." ”

Shaoqing shook his hand, the white flesh on his face trembled, and words popped out like a machine gun in his mouth, "Words should never be said to death, it is my idea to detain you, you are the biggest bargaining chip in my hand at present, before the two of us reach a consensus, no matter how much it costs, I have to keep you alive." ”

It turned out that this guy was the culprit, Zhan Tao was panicked in his heart, the days of the temple eunuch were like years, and those who had not entered had no right to speak. However, Zhan Tao didn't understand that his power was still in the bud and was in a state of absolute secrecy, so what did this Shaoqing fancy about him?

"I don't understand. Zhan Tao looked at Shaoqing's swollen face and said seriously.

Shaoqing didn't hide much, and revealed the truth in one sentence, "The state religion is protecting you, which shows that you are very important, and I will take you as a hostage, so I can take advantage of the power of the state religion." At present, Qing's whereabouts are unknown, and the dragons of [Dali Temple] have no leader, and our generation should stand up and preside over the overall situation. However, it is difficult for me to convince the public on my own, I need weight, and if the state religion is on my side, it will become my greatest support. ”

Zhan Tao was confused when he heard it, the state religion, the Holy Spirit state religion, he killed the Buddha, but what does this state religion have to do with him? You can't push those people up just because they cut off their heads, right? Zhan Tao wanted to ask more clearly, but Shaoqing interrupted in front of him, and he guessed that Zhan Tao didn't know about it, so it was better not to puncture this layer of window paper.

"Someone in the state religion is protecting you, you just need to know that your life is safe. Shaoqing paused for a moment before saying, "I'm looking for you today, and there are other things." ”

Zhan Tao was silent, his thoughts had not yet withdrawn from the word state religion, he had made countless assumptions in prison, but no matter what strange reasons were used as the premise, he had never had anything to do with the state religion. If there is someone in the state religion to protect him, who will it be?

"I just said it, Qing's whereabouts are unknown, and if he doesn't show up for a day, it will be difficult for me to really take power. Shaoqing's eyes were pure, and when he talked about power disputes, his honest and mediocre appearance turned and became fierce and resolute, "You help me find him out, and I will make your next life very good." ”

"It's not a fair deal. Zhan Tao listened and said angrily.

Shaoqing said with a smile, "People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads, how can there be any fairness in this world, you should know that everything is relative." ”

This is reasonable, in the temple prison, even if it is an unreasonable and unequal treaty, Zhan Tao has to grit his teeth and bear it, he did not hesitate and asked, "Since you can't find it, why do you think I can find it?"

"Because I'm pretty sure he's been in the prison all along. Shaoqing restrained his smile and said seriously and prudently, "I think he is someone next to you." ”

Since Shaoqing appeared, Zhantao's sweat secretion has accelerated significantly, especially after hearing Shaoqing's speculation, it is even more difficult for him to maintain his calmness. This is by no means appalling, Shaoqing has no need to deceive him, so who will Qing be? Why should he hide by his side? Zhan Tao felt that he was wrapped in a huge bubble of lies, and there were bizarre patterns of light inside, but they broke when he poked them, and he couldn't withstand any toss.

Who is it? Who could it be? Zhan Tao's head was about to blow up, and he felt that the people around him were all sincere, and then he thought that their voices and appearances were extremely hypocritical. Shaoqing was very satisfied with Zhan Tao's expression, and he continued, "Qing is very smart and will not let you notice easily, and at the same time, Qing is very keen, and any suspicious actions of you will cause him to give him a strong warning. ”

"Gurgle, die, delicious. The strange tree chewed back, vomited out the food in his stomach, and ate it again, this time biting a little more finely, probably listening to Shaoqing's words, which is conducive to digestion.

"Next, I will give you the privilege of moving freely in the temple prison, and you will no longer have to participate in daytime labor camps, and your energy should be spent on finding people. Shaoqing looked into Zhan Tao's eyes and said, "Pay attention to your friends, what they say, every subtle expression, or inattentive action, can reveal a lot of information." Your task is to assemble the information into a long chain and follow the chain until you find him. ”
