Chapter 7: The Magical Tree
Just when everyone thought that Lin Jiayu was going to die, a strong golden light burst out from behind Lin Jiayu, swallowing the steel knife in an instant. Immediately after, the steel knife turned into golden powder and fell in the shocked gaze of more than a dozen pairs of eyes.
Run! Ji Jian only had this thought left in his mind at this time, he had struggled on the edge of life and death several times, and no time had he felt the coming of death so clearly as now.
However, it was too late, and in just an instant, the golden light came to them, like the sickle of death, mercilessly harvesting their lives, and a dozen of the Ji family deacons turned into golden powder before they even had time to scream.
A gust of wind blew, and the golden powder drifted everywhere, rendering the world here also golden, clean and pure like autumn in a fairy tale, extremely beautiful. Lin Jiayu led Li Xingxing, and behind him flew the barren courtyard and the little red dragon, with the momentum of dominating the world.
Under the pressure of this momentum, Su Xueruo knelt on the ground uncontrollably on her knees, and from the depths of her soul came a kind of surrender that made her unable to rise to the slightest resistance. It was the surrender born from the soul jade planted in the body, and it was also the surrender of the ancestors of the Tang family.
Su Xueruo's mouth was full of bitterness, is this the power of the artifact? Just a ray of light is terrifying.
"Alas!" Between heaven and earth, there was a sigh, and then, a tree appeared in front of Su Xueruo and the three of them out of thin air. The tree has a strange appearance, resembling a "human", with hands and feet, hair and beard, but it is all made up of trunks and leaves.
The tree man glared at Lin Jiayu and shouted, "Boy, are you trying to ruin this place? ”
"That, no, Uncle Shu, I didn't think about it, I didn't want to, I didn't do anything." Lin Jiayu said incoherently.
The tree man shook his head helplessly, stretched out two hands full of folds, and twisted them together and twisted them slowly to the sides. Suddenly, the golden light that was spreading around seemed to be pulled and gathered one after another, condensing into a small golden ball in the hand of the tree man.
Holding the golden ball in the palm of his hand, the tree man made a move that made Su Xueruo and the others feel stunned - spitting frantically on the ground.
However, although the action is indecent, the effect is immediate. The moment the treeman's saliva fell to the ground, young shoots sprang up on the ground, and in just a few breaths, these shoots grew into flowers and trees, and restored the place to its original state.
After doing this, the tree man hugged his two arms, looked down at Lin Jiayu, and said, "Don't run away after the destruction, wait for me to arrest you and wait for me to wash my feet every day?" ”
"Oh!" Lin Jiayu replied, holding Li Xingxing and planning to leave.
Su Xueruo was a little speechless, hurriedly dodged to the side of the tree man, respectfully made a junior salute to the tree man, and said, "I disturbed the peace of the seniors, and I hope the seniors will forgive me, so let's go." ”
Shuren glanced at her appreciatively and said, "The girl of the Tang family is quite polite. Look at you, the old man will help you again. ”
As he spoke, the tree man spread out his palms and spat a few mouthfuls on the golden ball, then clasped his hands together and rubbed them vigorously. After a while, the golden ball turned into a pool of liquid and appeared in the palm of the treeman's hand, and the treeman threw it away, and the liquid was thrown into the deserted courtyard.
"Hey, old fellow, if you don't wake up, your heir will be dragged to death by you." The Treant shouted at the Deserted Courtyard with a little schadenfreude.
In the face of the treeman's shouting, there was no movement in the barren courtyard, and the treeman frowned, paced two steps on the edge of the barren courtyard, and then crossed his hands on his waist and spat wildly at the barren courtyard.
"I don't believe it, you haven't woken up yet." The tree man swore while spitting.
Finally, under the dense saliva offensive of the tree people, the barren courtyard let out a "buzz" and began to spin in place, and became smaller and smaller. After a while, when the barren courtyard became only the size of a pigeon's egg, it suddenly rushed towards Lin Jiayu.
Lin Jiayu was dumbfounded, and before he could react, the barren courtyard hit him in the arm. The place where it was hit was warm, Lin Jiayu hurriedly raised his arm to take a look, and a golden mark the size of a pigeon's egg appeared on his arm, which was exactly the same as the barren courtyard.
"Alas, I can't wake up, it looks like I consumed a lot of money 10,000 years ago!" The Tree Man muttered to himself. After speaking, he turned his head to look at Lin Jiayu, pulled the T-shirt on his body with his hand, and said, "Don't wear this strange clothes in the future, only by covering it up with you is safe." ”
Lin Jiayu nodded, looking at the tree man's hair and beard from emerald green to yellow, and he was deeply moved in his heart. No matter how sluggish he was, he could see that the tree man was helping him.
"Let's go, let's go! It's best not to come in the future. The tree man shook his head and made a gesture of chasing.
Lin Jiayu followed Su Xueruo's example and gave a junior salute to Shuren, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Shu, let's go." ”
Seeing Lin Jiayu and his party out of the forest, the tree man laughed evilly, waved his hand and moved the five trees in the forest, and said to himself: "It's all here, let's play for a while!" ”
To the east of the forest, Su Yueshan and the other five people had gloomy faces, looking at a killed shadow poisonous spider on the ground, and did not say a word. After a while, Su Yueshan said: "Close your eyes, walk separately, and don't look at the surrounding scenery, maybe you can break this maze." ”
Lin Jiayu and Su Xueruo and their entourage naturally didn't know that the tree people helped them intercept the pursuers, and they arrived at the port very smoothly.
Out of caution, Su Xueruo commanded Lin Jiayu and Li Xingxing to hide in the grass and observe for a while, and after confirming that there was no one around, they stepped forward to untie the rope tied to the wooden stake.
At this moment, a person suddenly jumped up in the shadows of the boat and pressed a dagger against Su Xueruo's neck, and Su Xueruo's hand to untie the rope suddenly froze. A few more figures sprang out nearby, quickly controlling Lin Jiayu and Li Xingxing.
"Xue Ruo?" The person in charge went around to Su Xueruo's front, saw Su Xueruo's face clearly, and shouted in surprise.
"Uncle." Su Xueruo was also surprised to see that the person opposite was the uncle Su Zhe who loved her the most.
"How are you?" Su Zhe asked.
"I'm from the Tang family." Su Xueruo replied.
"You absorbed the Soul Jade?" Su Zhe asked again.
Su Xueruo nodded. Su Zhe thought for a while, then waved at his own people and said, "Let it go." ”
Su Xueruo, Lin Jiayu and Li Xingxing all regained their freedom under this order. Lin Jiayu hurriedly led Li Xingxing to Su Xueruo's back.
"Sanshao, I'm afraid this is inappropriate!" On Su Zhe's right, a one-eyed dragon said in a gloomy voice.
Su Zhe asked rhetorically, "What's wrong?" ”。
"If you let them go, it's not easy to go back!" The one-eyed dragon said, a faint sense of threat in his voice.
Su Zhe laughed, trembling with laughter, and ordered without looking back: "Kill." ”
