Chapter 555: The road is narrow
Hundreds of town soldiers surrounded Dongfang Xiuzhe and the others at once, and the weapons in their hands exuded a cold light and aimed at several people in the encirclement.
The campfire was still burning and crackling, but the silence of the night was now overshadowed by a solemn atmosphere.
Dongfang Xiuzhe looked at the soldiers in front of him and did not speak.
Yunzhi on the side stood up and asked, "Why are you surrounding us?"
"If you commit the crime of blasphemy, I advise you not to resist in the slightest, otherwise you will be killed!"
A general stepped out of the soldiers and said in an arrogant tone.
"What have we blasphemed?" Yun Zhi then asked.
"Don't pretend to be confused anymore, take it down for me, your crimes will be decided by the city lord himself!"
With a wave of his hand, the general commanded.
"You dare!"
The earth-level refiner Shepu stood up, as the contract servant of Dongfang Xiuzhe, how could he tolerate these little people being so presumptuous, and he was ready to do it right now.
However, it was stopped by Dongfang Xiuzhe.
"Even if you know the current affairs, come with us quickly!"
The general thought that these people in front of him had given up resistance, and couldn't help but sneer.
Dongfang Xiuzhe raised his head, looking up at the hazy moonlight in the sky, the corners of his mouth curved a little, and those who were familiar with him would guess from his expression at this time that he was moving some kind of ghost again.
Suddenly, the smile on the corner of his mouth turned into an evil smile, and he sat back on the root of the tree again: "None of you need to make a move!"
"Bold!"
Seeing that the young man opposite dared to sit on the "Cursed Tree" in front of him, the general's face changed significantly.
"It's you who are bold!"
A shout suddenly came out of Dongfang Xiuzhe's mouth, not only startling the soldiers on the opposite side, but even Yunzhi on the side was stunned.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the young man who was stilting Erlang's legs and looking at the tax in his eyes.
"I am the spirit of this tree, and you dare to do so before me. Aren't you afraid of angering me?"
Dongfang Xiuzhe's next sentence made everyone confused.
"Don't talk nonsense, all the soldiers listen to the order and take these people down quickly!"
The general was stunned for a moment, and then ordered again.
Yun Zhi on the side peeked at her, the little sect master, and covered his mouth and chuckled. She is becoming more and more confused about the personality of this little sect master.
When you show your strength, you are like a master in the world, but sometimes, you are cute like a child.
She really didn't expect that the little sect master would actually say that he was a tree spirit. The person who can believe this is estimated to be only a three-year-old child.
"It seems that you don't believe me, so don't blame me!"
Dongfang Xiuzhe snorted coldly, and in an instant, he saw that the bonfire that was originally burning turned into a dragon, flying directly around the huge dead pine, and the scene was not weird.
Immediately after, the general who gave the order. The whole person seemed to be out of gravity, and he flew up all of a sudden, flying in the direction of the dragon.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stupefied. It also protects the Yunzhi that ranks second in strength.
No one would know that this was Dongfang Xiuzhe trying his Yin and Yang Eye's special ability - manipulation.
When the Yin and Yang Eye reaches the realm of "Heavenly Mang", it opens up two abilities, one of which is "Copy". The second is "manipulation"!
"Ah~~~~"
The scream came from the general's mouth, and he was helpless to let him exert his full fighting spirit. His body was out of the ground, out of his control, like an invisible force tightly wrapped around him.
Dongfang Xiuzhe slowly stretched out his palm, and any move he made at this time would affect the nerves of everyone present.
"Whoosh!"
The general who was about to be engulfed by the flames, like an arrow, flew close to Dongfang Xiuzhe, and was held down by Dongfang Xiuzhe.
Without the slightest hesitation, the "Soul Searching Method" has been used.
This coherent movement fell into the eyes of everyone and became an unexplainable secret.
If Yunzhi hadn't understood the young man in front of her, she would really think that it was a tree spirit manifestation at this moment.
She was like this, not to mention those soldiers who didn't know Dongfang Xiuzhe, a stiff body, standing there like a statue, the hand holding the weapon trembled slightly because of nervousness.
"Don't get out of here!"
After completing the "Soul Searching Method", Dongfang Xiuzhe's eyes widened, and his powerful energy rushed straight away, and his "controlling" ability was used again.
Those motionless soldiers, like a ball being kicked away, collectively flew out dozens of meters away.
The weapons in their hands, as their bodies flew out, all flew out of their hands and flew towards the young man who called himself the "tree spirit".
Then, under their horrified gaze, all the weapons turned into liquid, forming a majestic word "Fu"!
The soldiers were unharmed, and when they reacted from their astonishment, they fled in all directions.
A farce just disappeared.
However, Dongfang Xiuzhe knew that the matter was not over yet, and the real show was still to come.
With a flick of his wrist, he threw the already unconscious general away, and an unfathomable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again.
Tong Guò just "Soul Searching Method", he already knew that the withered pine in front of him was what those people called the "cursed tree".
A few years ago, the lord of the castle suddenly issued a decree forbidding anyone to touch the "Cursed Tree", and deliberately let the soldiers spread all kinds of horrific legends in order to make the inhabitants of the "Cursed Tree" fearful.
It is also the "method of soul searching", Dongfang Xiuzhe faintly guessed that there must be some secret hidden in it.
As for what this secret is, we will have to wait for someone to come and find out.
The Lord's House.
"I've heard that someone touched the 'Tree of the Damned', but is that happen?"
The city lord walked out of the inner chamber and asked with a stern expression.
"Qiqi City Lord, there is indeed this matter, it is said that it is a few foreign words, and there are already soldiers who have gone to arrest them. ”
"It's late at night, don't bother Mr. Ghost about this matter for the time being!" the city lord was saying when suddenly a cold chill came from one side.
A mysterious man in a black mask came behind the city lord like a ghost.
This person is the "Mr. Ghost" in the mouth of the city lord!
"It turns out that 'Mr. Ghost' hasn't rested yet!"
The lord of the city bent over his knees. With a flattering attitude, it can be seen that he is very afraid of the ghost gentleman in front of him.
"What happened?"
The sound was low, like the sound of rusty mechanical friction, very eerie.
The city lord put on a smiling face and hurriedly told his subordinates what had just been reported, and the ghost gentleman in front of him was not something he could offend.
"Don't make me repeat it, anything about the 'Tree of Damnation' must be reported to me as soon as possible!"
A bone-chilling chill suddenly emanated from this ghost gentleman. The frightened city lord on the side turned pale for a while.
At this moment, the soldiers who had been sent out came back in a panic.
"What do you say?
The city lord couldn't believe his ears after hearing the soldier's report, and while he questioned, he stole a glance at Mr. Ghost next to him.
Under that cold mask, a pair of beast-like eyes flashed coldly, and the city lord hurriedly looked away.
"City Lord, the 'Cursed Tree' has appeared, and Lord Qiao has been captured by the tree spirit!"
The soldier fell to his knees. Panting again.
"How did the Cursed Tree manifest, you tell me clearly, dare to say half a lie, and the military stick will serve. ”
Under the questioning of the city lord. The soldiers who came back recounted the incident in a rambling manner.
"Mr. Ghost, do you think this matter ......" The city lord cautiously looked at the masked man on the side.
"I'd like to see what kind of person is pretending to be a ghost!"
With a cold snort. Mr. Ghost disappeared from everyone's sight.
Above the night sky, the stars are dotted, and the crescent moon is in the sky. However, due to the influence of clouds, the light appears very hazy.
Beneath the roots of the withered pines, Lil blinked a pair of large, curious eyes as she stared at his little brother.
Dongfang Xiuzhe stretched out his hand and touched Li'er's hair, and said with a smile: "Little brother is naturally not a tree spirit, he was playing tricks on those people just now, those are just small tricks!"
His answer, the naïve Lil would not feel anything, but the well-informed Yunzhi knew very well that it was definitely not a small trick.
Yunzhi felt that it was a very powerful ability, and if this ability was used in a duel with others, it would exert an incalculable power!
A move that can manipulate other people's bodies is terrifying just thinking about it!
However, what Yunzhi didn't know was that Dongfang Xiuzhe's "manipulation" ability was limited, he could only control people whose strength was lower than him, and he could only control objects of a certain volume!
Of course, this "manipulation" ability will continue to improve with the evolution of Yin and Yang Eyes!
"It's coming!"
Dongfang Xiuzhe, who was chatting with Lier and a few people, suddenly looked up at a place on the street.
The second one who sensed someone approaching was Yun Zhi, looking at the gloom of the street, her brows furrowing more and more.
The energy fluctuations of the person who came made her feel familiar.
"Whoosh!"
Like a ghost, Mr. Oni had come to a stop ten meters from the dead pine, and the first thing he noticed was the boy sitting at the root of the tree playing with the flames.
He recognized at a glance that the boy was the man who called himself the "Dryad"!
But when he looked at the others, there was a clear flash of disbelief in his eyes.
"It's you, Duan Xingkong!"
Yun Zhi glared angrily, and she recognized the identity of the other party at a glance, one of the elders of the Spirit Cloud Sect - Duan Xingkong.
In that battle back then, among the elders who besieged her, there was Duan Xingkong!
This is really a narrow road, and I never thought that I would accidentally meet it in the here and now.
"Elder Yun, I haven't seen you for a few years, don't come unharmed!"
When Duan Xingkong saw that his identity was revealed, he sneered.
"Duan Xingkong, I have always remembered that palm back then!"
Yunzhi exuded a thick murderous aura. (To be continued......)
