There was nothing to do all the way, everyone took advantage of the fact that the sun had just been covered by dark clouds, and hurried on the road, as long as they crossed Shengying Mountain before dark, they could not camp on the mountain, and directly find an inn in Qingshen County, and sleep comfortably.

Xu Xiuzhu was a little distressed and sorted out the green silk scattered on the girl's sideburns, and the sedan chair was given to the injured sedan chair man, so the later Lu Yan Yingluo basically walked with them, and the pink shoes were stained with mud.

For this reason, Xu Xiuzhu said that he would carry her on his back, after all, when he arrived in Qingshen County, Yan Yingluo defected to his grandmother, and Xu Xiuzhu also had to leave for a period of time to experience the rivers and lakes.

As for Yan Yingluo, she didn't say anything reluctant, but He Xu, who was a little ghost, could see that his sister Yingluo was getting closer and closer to Qingshen County, and she was talking less and less, and she was probably sad.

On the way, Lu Yixiang talked about Xia Ze's righteousness and squandering his wealth and releasing precious wood essences, which caused everyone to sigh for a while, and He Xu just shook his head, saying that he was used to it.

Xia Ze had been looking behind him with a heavy heart, distracted the whole time.

"Brother Xia Ze, what are you looking at when you turn around in these three steps? Did you meet the girl you like on the way? Xu Xiuzhu rarely came out of depression and joked to Xia Ze.

"For some reason, I always feel like someone is following us along the way."

"Anyone?" Xu Xiuzhu looked behind him, there was an endless silence, there was not even a ghost, where did anyone come from.

As everyone climbs the mountain higher and higher, the temperature on this mountain becomes colder and colder, but fortunately, in addition to He Xu and Yan Ying, there are a few sedan chair husbands who need to add clothes, and the rest of them are martial artists, and their physique is naturally much better than ordinary people.

As one of the nineteen peaks of Diancang Mountain, the height is the same as that of Longquan Peak, where Taoxi Temple is located, and it is the first moat to block the cold wind in the east. The further up you go, the more sparse the trees become.

Xia Ze and the others saw a commotion in front of each other, and when they looked at each other, they saw that it was actually four or five men wearing felt hats and robes, who were constantly holding axes to chop at a camphor tree that was some years old.

It's just that this camphor tree seems to be surprisingly hard, and the sharp axe chopping on it actually makes a burst of golden stone sounds. There were three or four crumbling axes at their feet, and each of them was so tired and out of breath that they managed to make a gap.

On the gap in the camphor tree, there was a juice similar to blood flowing out, and the men couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw this, and one of them held a porcelain bowl containing honey in his hand, and kept smearing honey on the gap.

In a secret place on the camphor tree, a pair of eyes quietly opened, and then closed again, which happened to be keenly captured by Xia Ze.

"Senior Lu, what is this?" Xia Ze turned his head and asked.

Lu Yixiang stared at the group of people, and said indifferently: "As you can see, these people are using the oldest means to capture the wood spirits. They first used an axe to cut a hole in the branches, and then smeared it with honey mixed with wine, and when the wood spirits stored in the trees were dipped in honey, the wine passed three rounds, and naturally escaped from the trees. ”

"This camphor tree is not cold-tolerant, but it can grow on this towering Shengying Peak, but the growth is excellent, and it is called the Zhenfeng Divine Tree here, which has a history of thousands of years. It is rumored that in this camphor tree, there is a Peng Hou who has practiced for thousands of years, so there is no shortage of people who have been squatting here day after day, trying to get rich overnight. ”

Xia Ze suddenly turned around and looked behind him, on a cyan stone, there was a small emerald green head, slowly poking its head out.

"Little one? It's you? Xia Ze was overjoyed.

The little wooden man, who was still a little shy, saw Xia Ze's expression, he was no longer timid, and jumped in front of Xia Ze, climbed up from under his feet, and finally stood on his shoulder, making a move.

Lu Yixiang stroked his beard and said, "I think this little guy wants to recognize you as the master, let you take him on a long trip." ”

Xia Ze cast a puzzled look at the little wooden man, and the little guy naturally nodded again and again, chattering endlessly.

"Then come with me from now on!" Xia Ze said with a smile.

The little wooden man was overjoyed, and with a clap of two pairs of small green hands, a small red flower grew out of thin air, and handed it to Xia Ze.

Xia Ze took it, and the little guy flew up, like a dandelion flying in the wind, cruising around everyone, and as soon as his hand was raised, everyone's head was full of flowers.

The little one giggled, then floated back to Natsuzawa's shoulder.

Yan Yingluo picked the flowers on her head, sniffed it gently, and her eyes were stupid. Xu Xiuzhu saw it in his eyes and began to regret why he didn't spend money to buy one to please her.

He Xu looked at the naughty little wooden man, his whole eyes were green, he left the little white donkey, quietly walked behind Xia Ze, and slapped his hands at the right time, and the little wooden man turned into a cloud of green smoke and dissipated into nothingness.

He Xu scratched his head in confusion, but the little guy got out of his sleeve, and everywhere he went, his clothes were full of flowers, He Xu scratched his liver and cheeks in embarrassment, and finally caught it, and the little wooden man and him were all laughing.

"Damn it! Wasting so many high-quality honey and wine from Lao Tzu, there are no less than hundreds of machetes that have been damaged this year alone, and now I haven't even seen a single Peng Hou's fart, it's really unlucky! A man scolded angrily, and then kicked the camphor tree.

The camphor tree does not move at all, but the branches and leaves sway in the wind.

The little wooden man looked at the camphor tree, and hid on Xia Ze in horror, and everyone was about to leave, when they suddenly heard a strong wind overhead, and then a black light, like thunder, fell on the top of the camphor tree.

Several men were so frightened by this sudden change that they fell to the ground and spoke incoherently.

The black man laughed wildly twice, and landed firmly on the ground, his strong figure was like a small mountain, he glanced at Xia Ze and the others, and then walked unhurriedly towards the scareless people.

He raised his axe high and coldly mocked the immobile man at his feet: "What a waste, such a big opportunity is in front of me, and I can't even make a gap." ”

Lu Yixiang, Xu Xiuzhu, and Xia Ze all changed their faces slightly, although this person's words were fierce, but the aura around him was restrained, and in the dantian of the Qi Mansion, there was a surging aura that made the world change color. Those who can ride the thunder will not be idle.

He let out a loud cry, picked up his axe, and slashed it at the thick trunk.

There was a crisp sound, the axe shattered into pieces, and on the hard trunk of the tree, he cut a deep wound, and bright red juice gurgled out.

This camphor tree with a long history, for the first time in front of everyone, emitted a faint light, and a few emerald green camphor leaves began to turn yellow and began to fall apart.

At the same time, the gap began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. The black man always had that grim smile on his face, and then his five fingers were like hooks, and one paw pierced into the depths of the gap.

The old camphor tree began to let out a miserable wail, Yan Yingluo screamed in fright, hid in Xu Xiuzhu's arms, and even He Xu's face turned pale, holding Xia Ze's clothes.

"Come out!" The man sneered.

The old camphor tree, the whole tree was trembling slightly, and the man's hand was not in the big tree, as if he was holding on to something.

Finally, he slowly withdrew his blood-stained right hand, flipped his hand, the streamer flashed, and a black porcelain bottle appeared in the palm of his hand.

"I wanted to spare your life, but now it seems that there is no need for this, anyway, it is a wood spirit with some background, dead and alive are the same, I Jubao Zong Xun Yin, I hate disobedient things the most."

He poured the black liquid in the porcelain bottle in his hand on the wound of the camphor tree, and in an instant, the thousand-year-old camphor tree began to tremble and wail like a human.

The man sneered, stepped on the gap, the trees were full of green leaves, and began to turn yellow, something surged on the branches, and he wanted to rush out, but the man blocked him.

Xu Xiuzhu muttered a few words, as if he had touched a dirty word that could not be put on the table, and was about to step forward to stop the man, but was stopped by Yan Yingluo and Lu Yixiang.

The old man shook his head and said lightly: "Don't be impulsive, that person's strength is unfathomable, if you really want to make a move, I'm afraid it will be a vicious battle, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to take care of Yingluo's safety at that time." ”

Xu Xiuzhu sighed, and had no choice but to give up.

Lu Yixiang asked Xia Ze with his eyes, and the latter just said lightly: "I can't see clearly, but if I can resist thunder, my cultivation should not be under the Seven Realms." ”

The Seven Realms of Qi Refiners, like the Earth Realm, are only one realm away from the Law Heaven Realm, which can use the magic power of the Law Heaven and Earth, but most of them have been able to differentiate the Yin God and Yang God, and incarnate outside the body.

The yin god is out of the body, feminine and ruthless, but the soul travels thousands of miles, killing people invisibly; The yang god is heavy on the body, the main pure yang, controls the five elements of aura, and is invincible.

Most of the Qi Refiners of the Seven Realms will choose one of the avenues of the Yang God and the Yin God for training, such as Buddhist monks who meditate all year round, and what they have cultivated is the Yin God that is invisible to the mortal eye, no matter which one it is, it is equivalent to adding a helper whose cultivation is no different from their own, and their killing power has skyrocketed.

The Seven Realms of Qi Refiners and below the Seven Realms is a watershed.

"Xia family boy, I advise you not to act rashly, this guy is from the Treasure Gathering Sect, this is an evil sect that is inclined to kill people and seize treasures, its avenue is closely connected with the magic weapon spirit treasure, and it has opened sects all over Kyushu, and has a wide range of contacts." Lu Yixiang groaned.

"Oh?" Xia Ze continued to soothe the trembling little wooden man and put it in He Xu's hand.

"This treasure sect has another not very good name in the rivers and lakes, called the evil bandit sect, as long as you can take down the treasure you like, kill people and goods, conspire and scheming, do everything. Besides, the person who came was highly cultivated, and he couldn't count how many magic weapons he had. There are often people who rush into conflict with it, in the case of cultivation as equal, carelessly underestimate the enemy, and finally the magic weapon that was sacrificed is not left, and all the belongings are in the pocket. Therefore, few people on the rivers and lakes dare to argue with the Treasure Sect. ”

"After all, no one wants to tremble with a mad dog, and they will lose all their money, right?" The old man shook his head and sighed.
