Bai Yujing's eyes widened.

He didn't die, he wasn't devoured by the monster, but he was tightly wrapped in leaves, not only did he not suffer the slightest injury, but his body was still very comfortable.

He lowered his head and could see that the two elders of the Hanging Mountain below had already approached.

Isn't this dryad a demon? Why don't you kill me? But you want to save me?

Just as he was thinking, the two of them were not far in front of him.

"Look, two hundred and seventy-three, where is it as mysterious as you say? Also suicide, murderer? If these people had this ability, they would not have been prisoners by now. ”

A lewd smile appeared on the old man's face with the broken arm, "It's junior brother, what's wrong with those monsters of yours?" You just said that you caught some demons yesterday, but there are ...... Tu Shan's? ”

"Hahaha." The purple-haired old man laughed, glanced nonchalantly at the wailing crowd in the prison, and raised his voice: "How many years have you and my senior brother been?" Can I not understand your mind? You must remember not to mention this to the master, otherwise the reward will be all about it, and you and I will be punished. ”

The two of them were still talking and laughing, and when they saw the ancient tree, their faces became disgruntled, and the old man with the broken arm stepped through the railing first, and without saying a word, he directly stabbed the long sword into the bark of the ancient tree.

Blood flowed down the bark of the tree, and the leaves made a rattling sound, like an old and dying old man, using all his life, strong to bear the sword.

Bai Yujing's eyes widened, and when he looked sideways, the face of the person floating on the branch next to him shook his head at him.

The face seemed to appear anywhere on the bark, and he gritted his teeth, as if holding on, making sure he didn't make any sound.

But the old man with the broken arm didn't seem to be reconciled, and stabbed out three swords again.

The blood flowed like water, and the old man with a broken arm was much more comfortable, and said with a smile: "You took my arm back then, and now I torture you every day, and I must torture you until your flesh and bones are broken!" ”

The ancient tree was almost fainting, but it still lifted Bai Yujing high and did not move.

The old man with the broken arm, who seemed to be satisfied, walked to the corner of the prison and opened a black iron box.

Bai Yujing fixed his eyes and saw that there was an oil lamp in the iron box, and the old man with a broken arm lit the oil lamp and took it out, walked to the side of the ancient tree, and put it on the rhizome part, and then clapped his hands with satisfaction and left.

The two of them did not take the two wooden doors, but pulled up a dark yellow barrier from the side of the ancient tree and walked in.

After they left, the barrier fell again, and everything was flat again.

Bai Yujing stared at that face, and he didn't dare to come out, but he dared to take a closer look at it at this time, and he could see that it was an old man's face, perhaps because he was treated like this, he was now much more decadent.

The ancient tree also stared at him, and after a while, he said, "You...... Not from the Tu Shan clan. ”

Bai Yujing swallowed his saliva, shook his head and said, "I'm not." ”

Gu Shu said: "Then you should hide, you shouldn't appear here, once the bloodline on your body is discovered, there will be endless troubles." ”

Bai Yujing's eyes widened and said, "You...... How would you know? ”

Gu Shu sighed and replied in a very small voice: "People can't see it, but our demon clan itself can smell the aura, although you don't have demon qi on your body, but there is demon blood, after I touch you, I can feel it." ”

Bai Yujing didn't know how to answer at the moment.

The ancient tree looked at him like this, and did not speak.

Bai Yujing's heart was already in turmoil, and he said in his heart: "This old tree doesn't know if it's a good person or a bad person, so bluntly telling my secret, it must be trying to blackmail me, why don't I find an opportunity to kill him?" No, no, no...... How can I think so, he doesn't know how much he has suffered here, maybe he can't get out in this life, how can I kill him? Such a wretched man...... I...... How could I pity a demon! They are demon who eats people and harms people! ”

After being silent for a long time, Gu Shu said, "What are you thinking?" ”

"I didn't think about anything." Bai Yujing casually made up a sentence that he couldn't even believe, and regretted it after saying it.

"You're thinking about how to kill me, are you?" Gu Shu smiled, Bai Yujing immediately denied it, and was interrupted by Gu Shu again.

Gu Shu said: "When Tu Shan gave you the Xuan Demon Vein, he must have already explained to you, and you can't spread this matter no matter what, so you want to kill me, but seeing that person just treated me like this, he felt pity and couldn't bear to do it, right?" ”

Bai Yujing's mind was completely seen through, but he still kept a straight face and tried not to make any expressions.

"Your eyes have betrayed you." The ancient tree said in a low voice.

"Me!"

Bai Yujing's expression changed, he became panicked, he became timid, and he became vigilant.

When a person is accurately guessed about his thoughts, that powerless panic is the best proof of this.

"Hey......" Gu Shu sighed, "I tried it, and I tried it." ”

Only then did Bai Yujing understand that he was scaring himself, and when he thought that he had been recognized, he said calmly: "You are right." ”

"Then you should kill me." Ancient Tree Road.

"Why?"

"Because he has done this to me, and every day he has scorched my veins with candles, and stabbed my body with a sword, all because I have cut off his arm, and what does this have to do with me, and with him, and what does it have to do with you? Your secret is far-reaching, involving your life, you shouldn't have looked at your life well, but you want to pity my life, it's stupid! ”

The voice of the ancient tree is very deep and slow, but the words are clear, and at the same time, the words are heartfelt.

Bai Yujing swallowed his saliva and said blankly: "This is ......"

"That's the right choice." Gu Shu said, "There is nothing good or bad in this world, there are no good people and bad people, when you are in what position, you are the person of what position, those who oppose you are evil, and those who agree with you are good." ”

Bai Yujing didn't know why he suddenly said this.

Gu Shu smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, I've been here for three years, and I have never shown this face in the past three years, if it weren't for this blood on your body, I wouldn't have let you see me." ”

He sighed and said slowly, "The reason why I saved you is also because I want to be able to get out by myself, so you don't have to be grateful to me." ”

When Gu Shu said this, Bai Yujing already had a feeling, he was like an old gentleman, trying his best to stuff the knowledge in his head into the stomach of the student, and how much he could eat depended on the student's own ability.

Thinking of this, Bai Yujing asked, "How can I make others not see the power of my bloodline?" ”

Gu Shu smiled, this time he smiled very happily, like an old man who saw his own child, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed together, "Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, when you walk out from here, you will know ......"

Bai Yujing watched him play dumb riddles, but he had no other way, and asked, "Senior, how can I save you?" ”

Gu Shu said: "Do you see the candlestick?" That's the essence blood candlestick, with the big array of sealing veins, you can restrain me, you just need to help me take the candlestick away. ”

Bai Yujing suddenly said: "Then please ask the seniors to put me down." ”

The ancient tree put Bai Yujing on the ground, and he immediately walked to the candlestick, only then did he clearly see that the candlestick was burning the meridians under the ancient tree, and the meridians here were healing rapidly, but every time they were about to heal, they would be burned off.

Bai Yujing took the candlestick away, and the meridians of the ancient tree immediately healed, and then became thicker, and his body seemed to begin to recover.

That face moved to Bai Yujing's side below, his expression was endlessly comfortable, and that face gradually became rosy, he took a deep breath and said, "You go forward." ”

Bai Yujing asked, "What's ahead?" ”

Gu Shu shook his head, "I don't know, but I can often hear screams, what kind of encounter do you say can make them scream like that." ”

Bai Yujing's heart sank.

Gu Shu said: "If you don't dare to go, we can also ......"

Bai Yujing was already standing in front of the vine, pointing in the direction of the inside and asking, "Can you open it?" ”

Gu Shu smiled, "Of course. ”

After the vines were pulled apart, Bai Yujing walked straight in.

He wasn't carried away by his loneliness and enthusiasm, nor was he embarrassed by Gu Shu's agitation, he just wanted to understand one thing.

Who are these tortured people?

Bai Yujing saw the scene in front of him and seemed to be frozen.

No one was tortured, or rather, there was no one left.

The light here and the darkness behind it are separated by vines, and the houses shrouded in light are all full of demons.

As far as the eye could see, there were all little dryads, they had not yet grown up, they were all saplings with delicate young leaves, standing on the ground.

When the vines fell, several dryads immediately covered Bai Yujing's figure with branches and leaves, but did not cover his face.

But now, he regretted it very much, regretted walking in, regretted seeing everything in front of him.

There were many demons hanging above the cave, all of them women, and they looked to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.

Their lute bones were pierced by chains as thick as a finger, and iron hooks hung from above.

Bai Yujing remembered someone.

Counting cliffs.

Like him, they had no blood on their pale faces, helpless and empty eyes, confused and decadent expressions, they were afraid, trembling, and tears had dried up.

Stripes of white velvet swayed behind them, and their tattered clothes were the last of their dignity, although there were not many parts to hide.

Standing below were the two elders of the Hanging Mountain, their fairy wind bones, their long swords on their bodies, and they pointed at the Tushan fox demons above with a smile, as if they were guests picking goods in the downtown area.

Each fox demon was full of horror, but they could only let them touch their feet with their white but dirty hands.

There seemed to be no one in this room.

Bai Yujing didn't see people, but saw two more evil demons, attacking the demons.

At this moment, Bai Yujing asked a question to himself.

"Are they really immortals who have sheltered Jiuhua Village for decades?"

The answer may already be on the horizon.
