Chapter 54: The Resentful Wood Spirit
It curled up its branches and leaves, and the trunk grew shorter and thicker, as if compressed by a large invisible hand.
Then, it gradually separates the head and limbs, and then the facial features......
After a few dozen breaths, the little tree was gone, and in its place was an old woman with a slightly fat body.
Granny Wood.
If Shen Gu, Zuo Shen and the others saw this scene, they would understand that she had stayed where she had been since she fell from her horse, but she had just turned into a tree, concealing the perception of the pursuers, and she couldn't even smell the clues of the dog demon.
Granny Mu sighed, she has been operating here for two years, but in the end it has come to naught.
The horse was led away by the officers and soldiers, and she had to stagger east.
Poisonfang Mountain can't stay anymore, she has to find another place to live and start anew. But without such a handy tool as the mountain bandits, where could she easily accumulate blood food?
Granny Mu thought as she walked, and before she knew it, the sun was sinking, but she was not tired.
There was another clearing in front of her, and she was about to walk over, when she suddenly felt something, and the step she was about to take shrank back.
"Who!"
Granny Mu's gloomy voice echoed above the clearing: "Come out!"
In the darkness opposite, a woman in red slowly walked out.
She is peerless and tall, and when she looks down on Granny Mu, she brings a strong sense of oppression.
Although she had never met her, Granny Mu recognized her at once, and her tone was as gloomy as the dense forest in this night: "You are so bold, you stole my herbs, and you dare to stand in front of me!"
"Where's the use of those herbs?" the woman in red looked her up and down, her eyes strange, "and you have to make up the numbers." ”
Granny Mu took two steps back vigilantly: "How did you find me?" Even those officers and soldiers couldn't find any trace of her.
Chitose pointed to her side: "You are always eating people, and there are always a lot of resentful spirits behind you, don't you know?"
She may not be able to find Granny Mu herself, but these ghosts in the darkness are as bright as a lighthouse to her. How could she be wrong?
Granny Mu also knew that the dead who were eaten by herself would turn into a ghost, but she never took it to heart, and at this time she just whispered, and the wooden staff touched the ground lightly, and the surrounding trees suddenly twisted the branches, and the whip was generally drawn towards Chitose.
Chitose dodged it in a flash, but Granny Mu's figure suddenly elongated, and with a lift of her left hand, she grabbed her.
In just two breaths, she suddenly grew more than three feet taller, and her swept left hand became longer and longer, and finally there was a whirring wind.
Where is this arm, it is clearly the thick wood of the sea bowl, and it is strong and heavy.
Chitose flew out upside down at once, as if she had been swept away, but her middle body folded and fell lightly in the middle of the woodland. "Sure enough, it's the 'wooden' mother-in-law. She had deep thought in her eyes. The old woman had been deformed, and her whole body was made of wood, more like the wood ape in the medicine field than a human.
"You are strong in blood and blood, and you must be delicious. Granny Mu smiled, "Mother-in-law will enjoy it and not waste a single thing." ”
After her transformation, her movements were much more sensitive and fierce than before. Chitose doesn't fight her head-on, but just observes while dodging, and her body is like a weak willow supporting the wind, which is very good-looking.
After showing her original form, Granny Mu had several scars and boils on her body, all of which were injured by external forces from the shape, especially the abdomen and chest, but they have now healed.
This old woman's healing ability is more powerful than many big monsters. Chitose thought about it like this, but said in his mouth: "Are you a resentful wood spirit?"
Granny Mu's attack paused slightly, and then she smiled and said, "Interesting, you are smarter than the stranger who entered the mountain last time." That's the admission, "But you really shouldn't have come out." "The huge mountains and forests are her home field, what can the woman in red ask for here?
Chitose didn't listen to the last few words, and only frowned: "Even if you are a resentful wood spirit, there are too many people to eat, which is against the harmony of heaven." ”
Granny Mu was suddenly angry, and even swept away: "Just allow you stupid things to chew and eat grass and trees day and night, and in turn, it is against the harmony of heaven?
"You know it yourself. Chitose pursed her lips, "Otherwise, why hide in the deep mountains and dare not go out to meet people? Even if you get some living people and livestock, you have to pass through the mountain bandits." Hey, you keep saying that you hate the living, but you can't do anything without humans. "Whether it's with mountain bandits, or with the Huang family in Pinggu County to trade medicinal materials, it's all about dealing with people.
Granny Mu sneered.
Chitose dodged another blow from her, but the grass beneath her feet suddenly grew wildly, quickly entangling her shins.
In the blink of an eye, she was stumbling. She subconsciously held on to the tree trunk next to her, but the place where she was pressing suddenly dented, causing her delicate body to tilt to the side.
The branches stretched to the left and right became soft, and quickly tied her hands.
Layer after layer.
Before she knew it, the two of them had retreated to the edge of the clearing, and behind her was a big tree, which could be driven by Granny Mu.
Chitose struggled hard, but the soft branches tied her up like ropes.
Granny Mu stood in place for a while, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief after confirming that she really couldn't get out of trouble: "I also said that you have great skills, but Er'er." "Where's your companion?"
Chitose was silent.
Granny Mu was in a bad mood today, and she didn't have much patience: "That's it, eat you first and then go to him." With that, he slowly stepped forward, lifted his wooden staff, and pierced it into Chitose Tankou.
This is the way for her to absorb the vitality and blood of the living, I don't know how many times she has practiced, and her movements are extremely skillful. No matter how tightly a human mouth is closed, she can pry it open.
However, before the tip of the staff touched the other party, there was a slight sound of wind on the left side, and then a stone fell on the back shoulder of the wooden mother-in-law.
The stone is well chosen, angular and angular, and it will probably bleed when it hits ordinary people, but it didn't even leave a mark on the back shoulder of Granny Mu.
She tilted her head slightly, and saw a boy standing in the shadow of a masson pine, thin, with a small face and large eyes.
This is the little wanted criminal who attracted the officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress Poison Fang Mountain, and it is also the culprit who spoiled her medicine field? Granny Mu smiled, originally worried that he was missing: "It is best if you can send it to the door." ”
The boy pulled out half of the ginseng and shook it twice at her.
Granny Mu has good eyesight, and she can see that the ginseng has been gnawed a few times, and there are still bright tooth marks on it.
This is one of the best spiritual herbs in the medicine field! The thief is hateful, and dares to provoke her with stolen goods.
Granny Mu's eyes suddenly burst into flames, and she tapped lightly on the ground with a wooden staff.
The big tree beside the boy was ordered, and the shadow of the tree was crooked, and at once it stretched out its ill-intentioned branches at him.
