The wind was howling, the gray mist was filled, the blood moon was heavy, and the whole mountain forest was shrouded in resentment.

"This should be the place..."

Zhang Tao broke away from the team and came to the remains of the old locust tree demon alone, looking at the dead branches in front of him like scorched wood, his brows were slightly furrowed, a look of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he muttered: "I don't know what kind of surprise this four-heaven tree demon will give?" ”

As he spoke, he crouched down and reached out expectantly to touch the dry, black, scorched wood.

[Soul Eater Locust Tree: Rank B Lower Rank!] 】

In the next second, the details of the Soul Eater Locust Tree suddenly appeared in his mind.

The Soul Devouring Locust Tree, living in an environment full of resentment all year round, is nourished by the Yin Qi and resentment, and gives birth to a sanity, which can spew out hallucinogenic spores, specializing in sucking the blood and soul of nearby creatures, and the trunk and roots are extremely tough and difficult, and it is a monster with very terrifying strength.

Immediately afterwards, a human skin book appeared in front of him, the pages of the book were turned, and the third page was opened, and an old locust tree with lush foliage quietly appeared on it, but there were no branches and leaves on the tree pole, and if you looked closely, you would find that those were the stumps and broken arms of living beings, and the heads of human beings, terrifying and hideous.

A picture of the life experience of the old locust tree flashed on the [Demon Illustrated Book].

The locust tree is a tree with a strong yin qi, which is easy to gather the yin energy of heaven and earth, provoke ghosts, and is called a ghost in the wood.

In the picture, a young sapling struggles to grow under the competition of various towering trees, desperately trying to snatch a ray of blazing sunlight above, the wind blows and rains, and finally one day, a terrible gray mist suddenly rises in the mountains and forests, and all the trees contaminated with the fog have withered and dried up.

But it was nourished by this mysterious mist, thrived, and became more and more luxuriant, and after inadvertently staining the blood of an injured animal, its branches and leaves began to tremble, enjoying the feeling of being moistened by blood, like hunger and thirst.

At some point, it had a crazy idea in its heart that it needed to keep swallowing that bright red liquid, and only then could it become stronger, monopolize the sunlight of the sky and the water of the earth, and become the master of this forest.

Gradually, the old locust tree became hideous and terrifying, the corpse trunk hanging on the branches became more and more, and the aura emitted became more and more terrifying, and finally the corpse merged with the tree body, and one after another grimace and human face grew on the trunk, hideous and terrifying.

Do not plant mulberry before and willow after planting, and do not plant ghosts in the courtyard to clap their hands.

The same shade trees as the locust tree, as well as mulberry trees, willow trees and poplar trees, these are the trees that attract lonely souls and wild ghosts to attach themselves to the most popular folk traditions.

Zhang Tao secretly wondered, after learning about the birth information of the old locust tree, he sighed in his heart, the ghosts and ghosts in this world are very similar to the ghosts mentioned in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai" seen in his previous life, are there still some of them that are not connected?

Today, the first three pages of the book are lit up, each representing a different level of danger, with the first page being Class D, the second page being Class C, and the third page being Class B.

If, as expected, the fourth page is Class A, then what danger level will appear on the second five pages?

For this question, Zhang Tao can't figure it out, and he can't figure it out, this is something he can't get in touch with at the moment.

[Ding, get the reward: a soul wood!] 】

In a trance, he had an extra wooden stick in his hand, which was a foot long and the thickness of a child's arm, which was a little heavy.

Soul Suppression Wood, striking the enemy's head, can cause an impact on the enemy's three souls and seven spirits, causing the enemy to fall into a 'state of loss of mind' for three breaths, and is an important raw material for refining magic weapons.

"This is a mallet?"

Looking at the extra foot of soul suppression wood in his hand, Zhang Tao waved it casually, feeling very comfortable, it was very suitable for hitting the stuffy stick behind his back, but it was a little broken, and he couldn't fight head-on compared with the sword.

Immediately, he happily put away the soul suppression mallet, and began to collect the corpses of the wreckage hanging upside down on the old locust tree, and after simply collecting the miserable corpses of the three Sky Survey Guards, he quickly left here.

Zhang Tao had a faint premonition in his heart that the ghost clone of the resentful girl appeared, which seemed to have something to do with him.

Especially when he saw the red-clothed ghost for the first time, the other party was very concerned about the cyan ancient jade on his waist, as if the ancient jade was her precious thing.

If he didn't guess wrong, the [Psychic Ancient Jade] had the breath of a tiger and a cat, and the red-clothed ghost shadow was tracked down based on this faint breath.

He didn't forget that when Oiran was most helpless and hesitant, it was the little raccoon cat who was always by her side, and it can be said that except for Li Changqing, the little raccoon cat had the closest relationship with her.

"Shhhh So Luo Ren's death still has something to do with me? ”

Thinking of this possibility, Zhang Tao's mood suddenly became heavy, and the joy of just obtaining the Soul Suppression Wood was gone, and some were just some guilt and jealousy.

The [Tongling Jade] in his hand is like a hot potato, which may bring disaster and danger to him at any time.

If it hadn't been for his prudence at that time, he had put the shroud on his body in time and isolated his own qi, I am afraid that his fate would be the same as that of Luo Ren and them, he would not have enough self-preservation, and could only die tragically under the curse of the necromancy.

After understanding the cause and effect, Zhang Tao became more jealous of the existence of the resentful girl.

Immediately, he looked at the cyan ancient jade hanging from his waist, his eyes were full of complicated colors, and he wanted to discard it, but he was reluctant to let it nourish his soul.

After thinking about it, he had a flash of inspiration, and he had a notice in his heart, he could use the shroud to wrap the [Tongling Jade] to prevent him from leaking his breath, and directly cut off the possibility of being discovered by the red-clothed ghost.

"Brother Zhang, thank you for your hard work!"

As soon as he stepped into the Taoist temple, Zhang Tao ushered in Wu Fatzi's warm care and embrace, and after handing over the dry corpse and dry bones behind him to Zhao Gongping, he followed Qingyun Lao Dao into the inner hall of the Taoist temple.

In the inner hall, Lin Bufan sat on the futon with an expressionless face, and the curse lines on his forehead were bright and uncertain, looking extremely demonic and evil.

The stupid big Pang Shaoyuan leaned against the pillar and fell asleep, and Liu San stayed in his place like a frightened little animal, shivering.

And Fang Zhibai was lying unconscious on the bed, and his broken left arm had been replaced by Luo Ren's Xuantie arm at this time, obviously out of the danger period, as long as he recuperated in peace, he would recover.

"Sit down!"

Hearing this, the old Taoist priest Qing Yunzi slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zhang Tao who entered the inner hall, and smiled: "Sure enough, you are the key to breaking the game this time..."

As he spoke, his gaze fell on the one-foot soul suppression wood on Zhang Tao's waist, and a sudden look flashed in the corner of his eyes, and he said, "Poor Dao finally knows where you got the ominous things on your body. ”

"Huh?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Tao's heart suddenly tightened, thinking that the secret of his [Demon Illustrated Book] had been discovered.

Immediately, he pretended to be calm and expressed puzzled doubts: "Why did the Taoist chief say this? ”

"You have a pair of yin and yang eyes that can see into everything, and you can see things that ordinary people can't see."

Qingyun Lao Dao's eyes narrowed, revealing a confident look that saw through everything, and said, "The black wood branch around your waist is the best proof!" ”

"Whether it's the ominous shroud or the stenching bronze lamp, you've discovered them alone, and you've mastered their strange abilities."

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Bufan, who was meditating, and Pang Shaoyuan, who was sleeping soundly, and continued to explain: "And they have all acted with you, they didn't find these items, but you are different..."

"You have a unique pair of eyes."

In the end, the old Taoist priest restrained his smile, showed a serious face, and said seriously: "Only your eyes can penetrate the falsehood and find the body of the resentful girl in the resentful illusion, as long as the body of the resentful girl is put down from the self-committed white silk, and then the corpse is buried in the ground, awakening the goodwill in her heart, then you can resolve the catastrophe in front of you." ”

"My eyes, are they so powerful?"

Zhang Tao was dumbfounded, shocked, he knew best what he was doing, his eyes were borrowed from the eyes of the fire jackdaw, but they were not yin and yang eyes, and it was impossible to have the ability to penetrate the illusion, at most, he just saw the illusory ghost.

"Well, if Poor Dao is not mistaken, the power of your eyes has not yet been fully mastered." Qingyun Lao Dao nodded.

After a pause, he stroked his chin and beard and smiled, "However, Poor Dao has a way that can help you exert all the magical powers of Yin and Yang Eyes. ”

"Please also ask a real person to teach me!"

Hearing this, Zhang Tao was overjoyed, this is an opportunity for pie in the sky, hearing the other party's words, how to know the meaning of the other party's words.

Although he still didn't understand the reason for the casting of the Eye of the Nether, it didn't stop him from practicing other secret methods of pupil magic.

After all, more skills are not oppressive, and one more hole card is one more means of saving life.

"But before I can teach you the magic, you need to agree to one condition!"

Qingyun Lao Dao smiled silently, staring at the front with burning eyes, like an old fox who had succeeded in his treacherous scheme.

"Don't talk about one condition, even ten conditions are no problem." Zhang Tao blurted out without thinking.

The moment he finished answering, he began to regret it in his heart, and before he heard any conditions, he agreed with a hot head.

If the old Taoist priest in front of him put forward a very excessive or dangerous condition, wouldn't he become a stupid boy who bought himself and counted the money for others?

"That is to worship the Immortal Dao Temple and become a disciple of the Poor Dao Immortal Sect!"

Qing Yunzi waved the dust in his hand, and looked at the man in green shirt in front of him with burning eyes, whether it was his character or talent, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"Clams? It's so simple, is to join the Taoist Temple of Immortality? ”

After hearing the condition, Zhang Tao's mouth opened slightly, a little unable to believe his ears, and said tentatively: "Just this one condition, there is nothing else?" ”

"It's as simple as that, the Tao doesn't pass on non-people, and the law doesn't pass on to six ears!"

Qingyun Lao Dao nodded and said, "Only the disciples of my Immortal Sect can practice the Immortal Sect exercises, otherwise it will be against the ancestral teachings and blasphemy against the ancestral masters of the past dynasties!" ”

Dua

g！ Dua

g！

"Master go up again, please accept the apprentice's worship!"

Seeing this, Zhang Tao did not hesitate at all, immediately knelt on the ground and slammed his head three times, and called the master twice with a respectful attitude.

He thinks quickly, assesses the situation, and can see at a glance that the old Taoist priest in front of him is a strong man with profound Taoism, even if the other party's cultivation is now lost, he is also a well-informed elder.

Worship under the other party's door, he will not suffer!

"Huh? Well, good apprentice! ”

The sudden apprenticeship caught Qingyun Lao Dao a little off guard, he didn't expect the young man in front of him to be so decisive and decisive, and he was immediately confused.

After being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly helped Zhang Tao's body, raised his head and laughed, let out a hearty laugh, and said, "Hahaha~ Good apprentice, please get up quickly!" ”
