Chapter 172: Surveillance
Murong Ni smiled slightly, and then walked to the bedside to see the old man's condition.
Previously, Murong Ni had removed half of the demonic qi in his body, and there were a few fewer eggs in that basket, and Grandpa Wang's condition was much better, and now he was able to sober up for a while now.
"I'm relieved when grandpa's condition stabilizes, safe, this is the time when my body is weak, remember to boil eggs for grandpa every day," Murong Ni said, and stood up: "I'll go back." ”
"Eh, Sister Ning, I'll send you. ”
With that, Murong Ni walked in the direction of the door, and before she could leave, she suddenly heard a voice coming from behind.
"Peace...... Ping An ......"
Hearing this familiar voice, Wang Ping'an immediately looked in the direction of the bed, and saw that the old man was lying on the bed at this time, his eyes were stunned looking at the air, and he muttered his name in his mouth, Wang Ping'an's face changed, and he hurriedly ran in the direction of Grandpa Wang, which was the first time Grandpa Wang spoke since he was sick.
"Grandpa, grandpa, how do you feel?" Wang Ping'an ran to the side of the bed and hurriedly held Grandpa Wang's hand and asked with concern.
Grandpa Wang still looked up at the air, and his mouth opened and closed for a long time before he said intermittently: "Peace...... Come on...... Fast...... Run ......"
"Grandpa?" Wang Ping'an was slightly stunned.
Hearing this, Murong Ni's heart was also moved, and she walked back.
"Quick...... Run......"
I saw that the old man on the hospital bed used all his strength to pull his hand out of Wang Ping'an's hand, and then kept pushing him and repeatedly said the word "run", looking up, I saw that although he couldn't move, his eyes were full of fear, as if he had seen something very terrible.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" Wang Ping'an looked at the old man on the side, and was also very anxious, and suddenly thought of Murong Ni, who was still standing next to him, but he was a little sick and rushed to the doctor, and just wanted to turn around and ask Murong Ni, but saw that the old man's situation slowly calmed down.
Murong Ni slowly collected her spiritual power, leaving no trace in the air.
The old man in the bed stabilized and fell asleep peacefully.
Seeing this, Wang Ping'an also breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to Murong Ni's direction and said, "Sister Ning, my grandfather is like this...... Nothing. ”
Murong Ni nodded, and then said, "It should be sober, don't worry, grandpa will be fine." ”
"Well," looking at Murong Ni, Wang Ping'an's heart also calmed down a little, and then said, "Sister Ning, I'll send you." ”
Back at Fan's house, Murong Ni followed Fan Niangzi to learn embroidery for an afternoon, but when she didn't see Yu Jiu'er come back in the evening, she said to Fan Niangzi, and when she was about to go out to find Yu Jiu'er, she saw her push open the door and come in.
"Why did you only come back now?" Murong Ni's eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly.
Yu Jiu'er's eyes moved slightly, and when she saw Murong Ni's face, she couldn't help but want to tell her everything, but she remembered Murong Ni's instructions before, so she had to endure her desires first, and then said: "At night, the lady of the Zhuang family suddenly fell ill, and I followed Dr. Xie to see a doctor, so I came back a little late." ”
After saying this, Yu Jiu'er sent a voice to her: "Little Nier, I saw that thing!"
I saw Murong Ni push the door open, turned her head and said to Yu Jiu'er, "Come in quickly." ”
Here, the two said goodbye to Fan Niangzi, and then went back to the house together, and when they arrived in the house, Yu Jiu'er breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tell me, what do you see. Murong Ni said to her.
"It's the strange crack in the corner of the wall that we saw in Dr. Xie's medical hall before, I followed Dr. Xie to the banker's house tonight, and I saw the same crack in the room of the banker's lady, and when I saw it, a small green vine stretched out from the crack, because it was very small, no one noticed, the vine seemed to be conscious, and when I saw it, I immediately shrank back. ”
"Vine ......" Murong Ni's eyebrows furrowed tightly and began to search in her mind.
I don't know how long it took, but her face changed.
"It's the Spirit Rhinoceros Tree!"
After Murong Ni's voice sounded in Yu Jiu'er's sea of knowledge, she hurriedly asked, "What is this, why have you never heard of it?"
"It's normal that I haven't heard of it, I also saw the record of this kind of spiritual plant from the Eight Sealed Tibetan Scripture Tower, because the general spirit tree grows on the ground, and the spirit rhino tree grows underground, the trees we see on weekdays are longitudinal, and the spirit rhino tree is horizontally growing, the form is very different from the ordinary spirit tree, the roots of the spirit rhino tree are not deep, the trunk is not long, the branches are very soft and can swing at will, but after all, the underground turbidity is rich, the spirit energy is lacking, after all, the spirit plant depends on the spirit energy to survive, so the general spirit rhino tree will stick its branches out of the ground to absorb the spiritual energy, in order to raise the roots, and the rootsThe cultivation of spiritual plants is much slower than that of humans and animals, except for some special circumstances, they often give birth to consciousness at the age of thousands of years. ”
Murong Ni paused and thought for a long time, then said: "The branches and leaves of the Spirit Rhino Tree are very large, and the range that a decades-old Spirit Rhino Tree can cover is as large as two Anping Towns. And the cracks we have seen everywhere these days are all where the branches of the Spirit Rhino Tree have been fixed, and something must have happened to this Spirit Rhino Tree. ”
"Why do you say that?"
"Because ordinary spirit rhino trees don't stick their branches out of the ground of people's rooms, they just want to absorb spiritual energy, but almost all the cracks we see these days appear indoors, so the purpose of this spiritual rhino tree is not to absorb spiritual energy, but to ...... Spy on the people of Anping Town. ”
"Surveillance? No wonder you always say that you feel like you're being spied on, and I feel a little bit of it. ”
"We're being watched by the Spirit Rhino Tree right now, because there's a crack in the corner of this house as well. ”
"Huh, where?"
Sensing Yu Jiu'er's surprise, Murong Ni hurriedly said: "Don't look for it, don't show any clues, you just need to know that there is, now it's not just the people of Anping Town, but our every move is under the surveillance of that spirit rhino tree." ”
Murong Ni's words made Yu Jiu'er's back chill.
It turns out that for so many days, they are living under the noses of others, and their every move is being monitored......
