Chapter 69: The Tree of Human Faces

Speaking of which, the love of children is just the "flower on the cake" of marriage, how can it be regarded as "charcoal in the snow"? In the future, if Song'er has a woman she likes, if she has a suitable net worth, she will be in the sixth palace, the third lady, the ninth concubine, the twenty-seventh wife, and the eighty-one royal wife, one more is not more, and one less is not a lot......

King Wu glanced at Zhen Xun, and decided in his heart that this female doll was just a little scattered immortal with no qualifications, and when Song'er came to give him incense next time, he would have to remind Song'er.

The marriage of the ancients was the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the difference in history is not something that can be explained in a few words, and marriage has a more complex role in this context, Zhen Xun no longer defended, originally she was still worried about how to talk to the middle-aged man in front of her about the modern concept of marriage, and the appearance of the person in front of her seemed to be no longer ready to continue chatting with her.

But how can this work? Zhen Xun thought that he had finally met a local with status, and he must seize the opportunity.

The more King Wu thought about his son's marriage, the more satisfied he became, and when he took two steps with his hands behind his back, he heard the female doll behind him ask, "Sir, do you know all living beings?" β€œ

When King Wu heard the words "All Living Beings", he turned his head and looked at the little fairy in front of him who "unintentionally" entered the temple, "Who are you?" Why do you know about the Cauldron of All Beings? ”

The middle-aged man's reaction was too serious, and Zhen Xun was also a little vigilant, but the people in the royal family would not be bad people, so he only said that a friend of his had inadvertently entered the cauldron of living beings and was trapped inside.

"Since you're a friend of a fairy, you must not be a mortal. And who is that friend of yours? ”

Zhen Xun stumbled, she didn't know whether she should be trapped or not, and told the middle-aged man in front of her about the identity of the young master of the feeding club, "I don't know the identity of Mr. yet, why does Mr. ask me about the identity of my friend?" ”

King Wu flicked down his sleeves and revealed the Xuanyi dragon robe on his body, and the coercion of the Son of Heaven who was deliberately restrained was also released, "I am the founding monarch of the Song Dynasty, King Wu Ji Fa." ”

After knowing the identity of the middle-aged man, Zhen Xun's eyes when he looked at him also became respectful, she no longer had scruples, and told the identity of the trapped person, and by the way, she also explained the role of the feeding club and Taicang - the recipes of the people of the world and the place where the foreign objects were turned into the body to nourish and rot the water valley.

King Wu pondered for a moment, and grabbed a handful of incense ashes from the incense burner with a solemn face.

"The place you said is not within my ability, and this king is powerless to help you. But in the valley where the cauldron is located, there is a demagogic human-faced tree. The demon tree relied on its omniscience to lure the people astray. Ordinary swords can't hurt her, so I'm giving you this incense ash, hoping to help you when it's critical. ”

King Wu no longer regarded Zhen Xun as an "unreliable" little fairy, and after giving Zhen Xun the bag containing incense ash, he turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared.

Zhen Xun, who was holding the small bag, understood that the tortoise shell that King Wu handed her just now should be engraved with the birthdays of King Cheng and another woman. However, Zhen Xun thought about King Wu's words, isn't the valley where the salient cauldron appeared in the territory of the Song Dynasty? It seems that it will take a lot of time on the road, and I don't know if I can catch up with King Cheng's wedding. That's it, the bride is not Ying'er, and it is embarrassing for her to go to this wedding.

……

After a long journey, Zhen Xun arrived at a valley in the northwest of Panlong City, where the Zhongsheng Cauldron appeared, Zhen Xun immediately understood what he meant by "not within my ability" in the mouth of King Wu.

The valley is so full of heat that it doesn't look like a human being at all. Yang Jian's words before lingered in Zhen Xun's mind intermittently:

What to hold in the cauldron of living beings......

Desire......

In the beginning, it was the desire to survive......

Appetite for the ......

The pebble tiptoed to stealthily trip over the visitor, the three-legged bird was planted upside down in the pit, and even if the flowers and plants were dead, they still stretched out their claws, and they vaguely looked strange before they were born.

When Zhen Xun was about to rest on a big tree that was quite normal, he was suddenly startled by a noisy discussion:

"Hualin, can you see it?"

"I don't know, it looks like it's very powerful."

"Awesome? It's just a yellow-haired girl, can you be as powerful as us?"

……

She followed the sound and looked up, only to see that the huge leaves had clear human features.

"I hate it~ You're so close to people, what do you want to do?" The delicate leaves are covered by a sexy lip and a pair of fox eyes with upturned tails, and the voice is also seductive.

"The love of children or something, it really affects the walking rivers and lakes. Woman, do you crave power? The powerful voice came from a thick leaf with a large rugged face.

It's just a human-faced tree with some Taoism, Zhen Xun breathed a sigh of relief, and just said flatly that he was here to find something.

Hearing Zhen Xun's words, the leaves were windless and automatic, revealing a slender leaf, "Is Miss here to find me?" Xiaosheng knows astronomy, geography, and ancient and modern. ”

"What about the price?" Zhen Xun asked, "You won't help me for no reason, will you?" After all, all the gifts given by fate have already been secretly marked with a price. ”

"Zweig's "The Beheaded Queen", I also know the famous foreign works." The slender leaf took over proudly, "We won't cut off your head, we just want your face." If you have what you want, you have to exchange everything for it. ”

Face? There is more than one meaning of face, is it to record the appearance of the person who came or to take away the dignity of the person? Zhen Xun looked vigilantly at the face of a thin scholar on a slender leaf.

"Although Xiaosheng has been on this tree in front of the person, he can see the six roads with his eyes and listen to all directions, and the news of the world is very well-informed. What Zhen Xun fairy is looking for, Xiao Sheng must know. The scholar on the leaf is handsome, but his words are very greasy.

"Yes~" A coquettish voice interjected, "I won't be too greedy, can I borrow the fairy's face for a month?" ”

It's still the delicate leaves of a pair of fox eyes just now, but her facial features have begun to distort and transform, "The slave family has used so many people's faces: resolute, warm, pure, beautiful, foxy, dignified...... I haven't used a fairy yet. ”

As soon as the voice fell, thousands of leaves shook, setting off a whirlwind of flying sand and rocks, and the branches of the human-faced tree also swelled in an instant, forming a cage, trapping Zhen Xun in the middle.

"Don't you want to know?"

"You want to get out, right?"

Countless pairs of eyes stared at her from all directions, and the faintly hot incense ash brocade made Zhen Xun sober up a lot, it turned out that this demon tree was so demagogic?

Calculate the distance, in the northwest of Panlong City, is the demon tree that bothers Ying'er also you?

Originally, Zhen Xun didn't know what the incense ash in the bag was for, but since he got close to this human face tree, the little bag had been faintly getting hot.

The cage woven by the branches is getting denser and denser, and countless faces on the leaves are shouting, instigating, and mocking, as if they want to compete with the long knife on Zhen Xun's body.

The swelling branches took root, Zhen Xun made up her mind, and she raised her arms with all her mightβ€”the gray powder fluttered and sprinkled, suddenly surging into golden sparks in the air.

When the sparks landed on the branches, there was a hysterical scream, and the originally airtight cage was reduced to ashes in an instant......

The human-faced tree, which had just been overgrown, had become a charred stump, with only a few branches leaning against the ground intact.

"Actually, I don't really want to know." Zhen Xun said as he turned the brocade bag over and shook it at the branches, he didn't expect the incense ash given by the Martial King to have such a great power, don't waste this good thing, until he saw that those small branches had also turned into charcoal, Zhen Xun left satisfied......
