Chapter 448: Dragon Claw and the Divine Remains

But the blades of grass are growing wildly, and you can tell that they haven't been pruned for a while.

After the Panlong army occupied Xiqi, this garden was abandoned. The capital is in ruins, and no one can take care of it for the time being.

General Nan Ke frowned: "This grass is too long."

The wolftail grass beside him was nearly six feet long. Even if no one takes care of it for two months, can it grow so tall? Then in a few months, this place will be transformed into a weed paradise.

Chang Nei said, "The West Garden is like this, any plant will grow wildly, and it will be impossible if you don't cut it for a few days."

General Nan Ke said curiously, "Don't you want to find out why?"

"The first king also sent people to dig three feet into the ground to look for it, but they didn't find anything." Chang Nei said, "The palace has also invited a magician to come and see it, and it only says that it is full of vitality here, can give birth to plants and trees, and is also very good for the human body. The queen is weak, so she often comes here to sit in the pavilion and watch the flowers."

"It can give birth to plants and trees, but it is not beneficial to the human body, but harmful." General Red said lightly, "The queen died early, right?"

"Ah, yes. In the third year of living inβ€”"

General Red said to the soldiers behind him, "Spread out and find the place where snakes, insects, rats, and ants gather the most and have the largest size!"

Immediately the crowd scattered in all directions.

The garden was so large that thirty or forty people put it in, and immediately there was no shadow.

These dozens of people will not pity the flowers and leaves, and they will stick to the ground with their weapons. The lush grass nests are of course inhabited by small creatures, rats and ants rush to escape, and wickers even poke into a snake's nest.

If she hadn't been on a mission, she would have roasted all seven or eight snakes into spicy strips.

At this moment, He Lingchuan caught a glimpse of a figure flashing out of the corner of his eye, jumping into the grass.

Although the other party was fast, He Lingchuan's eyesight was better, and he immediately recognized that it was a weasel, and its size was as big as a wild dog.

This body type, it should be a youkai, right?

He followed in two steps, and there was a trembling sound in front of him, but it quickly disappeared.

He Lingchuan followed the direction where the sound disappeared and walked forward, and soon found that at the end of the long grass was a big tree.

The dragon's claw old locust that can only be hugged by six people is luxuriant, and the leaves can reflect the luster of metal in the sun.

He walked around the tree, but found no holes.

How did the shadow disappear?

He Lingchuan zoomed in and searched out in circles.

Finally, he found a hole in the bottom of a low hill two feet away from the roots of the tree. The entrance to the cave is blocked by thick bushes and covered with several pieces of tiles, which can be found everywhere in the garden.

He Lingchuan carefully observed the traces of the cave entrance and knew it in his heart. Based on his experience in hunting demons in the Chipa Plateau, there are at least four or five weasels living here, and probably the whole family is here, neatly organized.

The West Garden is lush with grass and trees, with many snakes and rats, and it is a paradise for weasel demons.

He Lingchuan took out a bunch of herbs from his arms and lit it, throwing it into the cave while staring around.

Soon, in addition to this hole, smoke began to rise from the old locust tree.

It seems that the earth hole and the bottom of the tree are connected to each other.

He shouted, "There's a nest of weasel here!"

As soon as the grass sounded, He Lingchuan didn't have time to blink a few times before General Hong came to his side.

This also ...... It's too fast.

General Red looked at the old locust tree, then leaned over to look at the entrance of the cave, and praised, "Well done."

Just heard two squeaks, and the weasel demon jumped out of the hole and pounced on the red general.

He Lingchuan covered his face and couldn't bear to look at it directly.

Sure enough, in the next second, it was grabbed by the neck and held in his hand by General Hong.

The reason why its big tail is not mentioned is because the creature has biological weapons......

Regardless of its grinning, General Red shook the weasel in his hand, "I know you can understand human speech. Cooperate with me obediently, and none of you will be hurt."

This small animal is the most sensitive to qi, and the pressure on her body is terrifying, and the weasel demon gave up after two struggles, and chirped a few times.

It was held in the hand of General Hong, and it could not shrink into a ball, but its tail kept trembling, as if it had seen a natural enemy. congratulate

Lingchuan is really afraid that it can't help but let a P out.

Fortunately, General Hong immediately said, "I mean what I say. What's under the old locust? γ€Œ

The weasel demon chirped again, and General Red seemed to understand, so he said to He Lingchuan, "Call everyone over and bring the tools for plowing the ground."

He Lingchuan nodded and went to do it.

Only a quarter of an hour later, the Gale Army and the craftsmen arrived with tools.

The Red General had already let go of the Weasel Demon, and at this time he pointed to the old locust tree: "Dig under the tree in the direction of the Weasel Cave until something is dug out."

This ground has not been touched for many years, and it is as hard as iron, but it can't stop everyone from shoveling and hoeing, and it was quickly dug out of a big pit.

The further down you go, the more dark red the soil becomes.

The soil below four feet is red, and with the water seeping from the ground, it feels wet and sticky to the touch, and it really looks like blood...

When General Hong saw it, he said, "Yin Qi is stronger than anger, and there are still wood ghosts, what good will happen to the infirm if they stay here for a long time?"

Chang Nei also craned his neck to look into the pit, "That sorcerer is talking nonsense."

Wicker snorted, "Maybe the title master knows it in his heart."

When everyone was digging the ground, the old locust tree suddenly became windless and automatic, and the branches and leaves rattled.

The craftsmen were so frightened that they did not dare to continue, only the Gale Army turned a blind eye and continued to swing their hoes.

"This tree has absorbed the sustenance of the ground, and has become a demon, and now it is worried that we will cut its roots." General Red said, pressing one hand on the body of the locust tree, "Don't be weird, I won't hurt your life."

But her admonition was not good this time, and the old locust tree slammed, and the soil under everyone's feet moved.

The door panel stood at the bottom, and two tree roots suddenly protruded from the soil, one wrapped around his calf and pulled violently, the other wrapped around his waist and tightened hard.

The door board was caught off guard, and he fell to the ground and snorted in pain, and the wicker on the side saw his waist being suddenly strangled. With the power of this old tree, it doesn't seem like a problem to strangle people in half.

The strangest thing is, how can a locust tree grow aerial roots that are as developed as a banyan tree?

The wicker drew his knife with his backhand and slashed at the roots.

With this woman's strength, the bear's head can be chopped off, but the roots of the tree are intact, only a few white marks.

Everyone also heard the sound of "dang", which was very crisp, and the wood was more like metal than wood.

In the next moment, He Lingchuan threw himself into the deep pit, raised his knife in his hand, and broke the tree root in two.

The door panel suddenly pressed his waist and took a long breath, it was so dangerous, he was almost strangled.

"All up!" He Lingchuan drank loudly, grabbed two nearby craftsmen, and threw them out of the pit, and the other Gale Army jumped out on their own without explanation.

Thanks to his foresight, more roots emerge from the soil, and they become as flexible as a python.

He Lingchuan took out his sword like rain and cut off the roots of the attacking trees one after another.

There was also a red liquid flowing from the section of the roots, more like blood.

A craftsman on the edge of the pit took a shovel and pickaxe to knock the roots of the tree, but the roots were not broken, and the pickaxe head was smashed away.

At first glance, everyone knew how hard the roots of the tree were.

It's almost time to catch up with Miyagi outside.

"Toast and don't eat." Out of nowhere, the Red General smeared the spear, the tip of which slammed into the thick trunk of a tree with a pale glow.

When the flame met the locust wood, a "hula" spread in all directions, and I didn't know that I thought it was poured oil.

The bark crackled with fire, and the movement was crisp and sharp, like a howl.

General Hong pulled out his spear, walked around the dragon's claw locust, and broke off a tree root with his hand to examine it carefully.

"Not bad, not bad!"

He Lingchuan could hear that she was a little surprised, but very happy. Then the Red General tapped lightly on the trunk of the tree, and the pale flames magically vanished.

If it weren't for the burnt incense, if it weren't for the blackened trunk of the tree, the raging fire would have been like an illusion.

The tip of the Red General's spear tapped the trunk of the tree again: "If you dare to resist again, I will let you cut off the roots."

This time, there was no reaction from the dragon claw locust.

Then she said to the crowd, "Keep digging."

The craftsmen and the galeforce jumped down and continued to dig the pit.

No matter how much they dig, the roots of the tree will not stick out and make trouble.

In fact, it is very difficult to excavate at this time, because the root system of the locust tree is still twisted and knotted in such a deep place, as if it has been woven into a net, firmly protecting the things underneath.

At this time, the red general instead told everyone not to damage the roots.

However, various animal bones have been unearthed in the pit, including cats, dogs, and even three human bones!

Two of them were adult men and women, and the last one was very small and a baby.

General Nan Ke said curiously: "This locust tree has begun to catch and eat people, doesn't the palace know about it?"

Chang Nei was on the side, coughing lightly and explaining, "These people were not caught by the Huai Demon himself, but buried here."

Arlo turned the bones over, and the back of the male bones was sunken into a large hole, which was obviously a fatal wound.

Wicker took a sip, "All the kings of the world are the same."

Everyone continued to dig.

About a quarter of an hour later, the shovel on the door struck a hard object.

He reached out and pulled twice, and then shouted, "Got it!"

A piece of jade white is exposed in the red soil.

It's a god again!

The Red General was not excited, but called for a huge tarpaulin to be unfurled in front of the pit to block the sunlight shining at the bottom of the pit.

In another quarter of an hour, the sun will go down, but General Red will not even block such a warm sun.

When something was dug out of the soil, the enthusiasm of the people increased, and the leaves were dug downβ€”β€”β€”

Mainly curious, I want to see what the gods really look like. The remains of the gods embedded in the palace wall before couldn't see the whole picture clearly.

Soon, the top few corpses were cleared.

Probably because of geological reasons, more than a dozen divine remains are stacked on top of each other, with craggy bones, but they are basically intact.

Everyone was amazed.

These dead "gods" were visibly taller than humans by sight of a zhang tall, but their heads, necks, and upper bodies resembled those of humans, except that their skulls were very long, and the number of fingers varied, some with six fingers on one hand, and some with only four fingers.

Below the waist, the difference is greater. One of the corpses had an extra tail behind them, and the other had no legs at all.

He Lingchuan was curious: "Aren't gods a race?"

General Red said lightly, "Are youkai a race?"

He Lingchuan touched his nose and understood what General Hong meant. "Celestial gods" is just a general term, not just a single race, just like birds and beasts become demons, and the shape of monsters is also strange.
