The big eyes of the tree demon stopped turning at this time, as if they were thinking about something, Zong Ziyu continued: "Tree Chief, Vientiane City has coexisted with demons and people since ancient times, if you want the demon to continue to stay in Vientiane City, then you must not offend the disciples of Cloud Mist Ridge, they can't afford to offend." ”

The tree demon finally let go of the roots that were wrapped around Ye Qiu and put Ye Qiu on the ground, and the surrounding wolves and leopards suddenly all came up towards Ye Qiu, but they didn't have the courage to bite Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu because he heard the tree demon and Zong Ziyu talking just now, and now he didn't want them to find out that he was actually awake, Ye Qiu had to close his eyes, as if he was still unconscious. But at this time, although Ye Qiu's eyes couldn't see everything that was happening in front of him, his ears could hear it carefully, he heard the sound of those wolves and leopards grinning their teeth, as well as the sound of panting and snorting, there was a wolf demon because it was too close to his face, Ye Qiu could still smell a pungent animal stench, the wolf demon didn't know if he had found out that he was awake, and he was sniffing himself, this feeling was really unbearable for Ye Qiu, but in order to escape from here, Ye Qiu could only endure it.

Zong Ziyu walked quickly to Ye Qiu, helped Ye Qiu up, he carefully checked that Ye Qiu was not injured, and then looked up at Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu looked weak, his eyes were always closed, Zong Ziyu shook Ye Qiu, and said, "Brother Ye, Brother Ye, wake up quickly." ”

Ye Qiu deliberately drooped his head, not responding to Zong Ziyu's shout at all, Zong Ziyu looked a little worried, Ye Qiu saw that Zong Ziyu didn't leave for a long time, not to mention how uncomfortable the anxiety in his heart was, Ye Qiu had no choice but to quietly, pinched Zong Ziyu's arm with his hand, Zong Ziyu felt a trace of pain, looked down, and saw that Ye Qiu was pinching himself, Zong Ziyu immediately understood, he was very happy, but he was also a smart person, all this could not be seen by the tree demon, Zong Ziyu's face was still sad, and said to the tree demon: "Tree Chief, I'll take him away, don't worry, when he wakes up, I'll advise him not to come here again. ”

Ye Qiu said, and helped Ye Qiu to walk towards the door, but before he reached the door, the tree demon suddenly stretched out its long roots to block Zong Ziyu's way, Zong Ziyu thought that the tree demon had repented again, and said in surprise: "Tree chief, do you want this?"

The dryad's deep voice said, "This man can't let go, he has already found me." ”

Zong Ziyu said in a panic: "Tree Chief, this is nothing, I will find a way to persuade him not to come here again in the future." Only then did the tree demon retract his slender roots, and Zong Ziyu didn't dare to delay time, so he helped Ye Qiu and left Linglong Temple.

On the way back, fortunately, I didn't encounter any monsters, but Zong Ziyu's heart has always been worried, this tree demon is now the leader of the demons in Vientiane City, and now I have offended this tree demon, I'm afraid things are not so simple, Vientiane has been a place where demons coexist since ancient times, but since the war with Tang a hundred years ago, the number of people in Vientiane has decreased greatly, and the number of demons is slowly increasing. The mountains behind Vientiane are called the 100,000 Mountains, originally those monsters lived in the 100,000 mountains, since there are fewer people in Vientiane City, there are more and more monsters running out of the 100,000 mountains over the years, and the people of Vientiane City began to think of ways to drive these demons back to the 100,000 mountains, but after trying a few times, the monsters are catching up more and more. The reason may be related to the great battle between Vientiane City and Tang Kingdom, most of the people who mastered the advanced spells of Vientiane Kingdom were killed in that war, and now the situation of many demons in Vientiane City is really difficult to change.

The people of Vientiane are not afraid of demons, and they usually like to domesticate some little demons, such as rat demons, rabbit demons, etc., but the demons that ran out of the 100,000 mountains are really extraordinary, not to mention the large number, although many people in Vientiane City also have the spells of Vientiane to deal with demons, but in the face of so many demons, if you want to drive them out, you really have more than enough power to do it.

Zong Ziyu helped Ye Qiu back to the mansion left by the predecessors of Yunwuling, as soon as he closed the courtyard door, Ye Qiu pushed Zong Ziyu open, he gasped for breath, and said with palpitations: "It's terrible, it's terrible, Ziyu, thank you for saving your life just now." ”

Zong Ziyu saw that Ye Qiu was indeed fine, and his heart was relieved, he said: "You don't know, this time it's a big disaster, that tree demon is not easy to mess with." ”

Ye Qiu was still very panicked at this time, he said: "Yes, I have finally seen it, I didn't expect a tree demon to be so difficult to deal with, you say, how many terrible monsters are still hidden in this Vientiane City." ”

Hearing Ye Qiu say this, Zong Ziyu looked at Ye Qiu in embarrassment and said, "This, this is difficult to say." ”

Ye Qiu saw that Zong Ziyu was speechless, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and asked Zong Ziyu: "Say, tell me honestly, are you also a monster?"

Zong Ziyu hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course not, how can I be a monster?"

Ye Qiu didn't believe it, and said: "Why not, if you weren't a monster, how could they let you go and not dare to hurt you, could it be that you are also a terrible monster?" Ye Qiu's tone of voice became frivolous, staring at Zong Ziyu suspiciously.

Zong Ziyu said calmly: "Hey, is this your attitude towards your life-saving benefactor?"

When Ye Qiu heard this, he felt a little embarrassed in his heart, he smiled apologetically on his face, and said: "Ziyu, I'm just guessing, are you a monster, to make it clear, I'm just suspicious and curious, besides, even if you are a monster, I'm not afraid, didn't you say it all in this Vientiane City, there are a lot of monsters living there, I've lived here for so long, maybe many people I know are monsters, right?"

Zong Ziyu looked at Ye Qiu's puzzled expression, sighed, and said, "Sure enough, you were awake just now, and you heard all the conversations between me and the tree demon, right?"

Ye Qiu smiled embarrassedly, it was the kind of smile that didn't smile, Ye Qiu was a little hairy in his heart now, in case Zong Ziyu really said that he was a monster for a while, how should he deal with it?

Zong Ziyu said: "No, you are wrong, I am not a monster, I am the patriarch in the traditional sense here in Vientiane City, this title is already very ancient, although the current Vientiane City is governed by the Taishou of the Tang Kingdom, but the Vientiane Kingdom has been managed by the patriarch for a long time." ”

Ye Qiu didn't understand what the patriarch meant, and Zong Ziyu continued: "The patriarch is the ancient name of the Vientiane Kingdom, and his mission is to learn to inherit the oldest spells in the Vientiane Kingdom, and maintain the tranquility of the coexistence of people and demons in the Vientiane Kingdom. ”

Ye Qiu muttered, "Patriarch, spell, by the way, I've seen you speak to that piranha in a weird language, and those piranhas that bit me let me go." ”
