"What, what? What kind of tree is this?"

After hearing Mo Jue's words, Li Ling's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

Although Mo Jue was puzzled, he still repeated: "This is the meditation tree. What's wrong?"

As soon as Mo Jue's words fell, Li Ling pulled out the long knife on his waist and walked forward to the tree, making a gesture to stab.

Seeing this, Mo Jue hurriedly stopped her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Li Ling's movements made him very puzzled, why was he suddenly going to cut down the tree, although the tea made from the leaves of the meditation tree had the effect of calming the mind, it was far less than the effect of the Qingxin Jade.

Li Ling glanced at Mo Jue and replied excitedly: "I came to this ghost place to find this kind of tree, my master clearly told me that there is one on the periphery, and I can't find it after looking for a long time." ”

As he spoke, Li Ling broke away from Mo Jue's hand and continued dissatisfiedly: "Sword player, let me tell you, don't rob me, otherwise... Or I'll beat you. ”

Mo did not continue to stop Li Ling's movements, and suddenly remembered in his mind that the old blacksmith had said that this kind of tree could still be found in the periphery, although the number was scarce, but this kind of tree disappeared inexplicably a few years ago, and his son also thought that since there was one in the periphery, there must be one inside, so he did not hesitate to go deep into the demon forest, and finally ended up dying.

Without Mo Jue's obstruction, Li Ling lifted his long sword and dug a hole in the trunk of the tree, took out a dark cyan crystal from it, and smiled at Mo Jue, "Okay, let's go back." ”

As Li Ling took out the crystals, cracks began to appear on the originally smooth bark on the trunk, and the cyan leaves gradually began to turn yellow, and the vitality of the entire tree slowly faded in front of Mo Jue's eyes.

This was the first time Mo Jue had seen the death of the tree, and it left a deep impression on his psyche, and at this moment he seemed to understand why the meditation tree on the periphery of the demon forest suddenly disappeared.

Just when he was stunned, Li Ling made a new move, only to see her jump up under her feet, cut off two branches with leaves before falling to the ground, and then reluctantly handed one of them to Mo Jue.

The latter took the branch in a daze, only to see a pale cyan fruit condensed on the branch, and the fragrance emitted covered the fragrance emitted by the leaves next to it, and Mo asked puzzledly, "What is this?"

Li Lingzheng carefully picked the fruit, solemnly put it in his arms, and looked at him suspiciously after hearing Mo Jue's question: "Didn't your master tell you? This is the Pure Heart Fruit, a material for refining the Breaking Pill of Destruction, if you hadn't helped me discover this tree, I wouldn't have given you this sword-wielder." ”

"So, what about the crystal?"

After hearing the name of the fruit, Mo Jue seemed to have guessed something, but he couldn't believe the guess in his heart, so he could only ask Li Ling for verification.

"Really, don't you Sword Palace teach anything? There is no common sense at all, this is the main material for refining the Pure Heart Jade, the heavenly and earthly treasure that grows on the trunk of the meditation tree. Perhaps because he was too excited, Li Ling took the trouble to popularize the cultivation knowledge to Mo Jue, "I heard that there were a lot of such trees in the past, but I don't know why, but there are fewer and fewer of them, my senior brother said that there were a lot of them in the outer part of the demon forest a few years ago, but when I came, there was no one..."

As she spoke, it turned into a complaint, but Mo Jue didn't care about what she said later, her mind was full of the old blacksmith's weather-beaten wrinkles, the child's ignorant eyes, and the new armor.

It turned out that Qingxinyu came from this way, that is to say, it was all due to these monks, which indirectly led to the death of a child's father and an old man's son.

For a while, Mo Jue's heart was full of thoughts, and a wisp of black light gradually climbed into his eyes, and at the same time, a killing intent suddenly rose in his heart.

Li Ling, who was standing on the other side of him, felt it most clearly, if the original Mo Jue was harmless to humans and animals, then the current Mo Jue seemed to have become a fierce beast that chose people and devoured them.

This appearance scared Li Ling a lot, the hideous wounds on the ape demon yesterday were still vivid, she didn't want to be like that.

After hesitating for a while, Li Ling still cautiously asked, "Playing with the sword, what's wrong with you?"

Li Ling's voice pulled Mo Jue back from his endless thoughts, and Hei Mang was obviously a little unwilling, shooting straight from his eyes to Li Ling not far away, and at the same time followed by a voice: "Damn!"

However, as soon as the black mang flew out, a chain appeared in the center of Mo Jue's eyebrows, and it was wrapped around the black mang at a faster speed to disperse it.

Mo Jue's eyes returned to clarity, and he couldn't help but bow to Li Ling gratefully, and thanked him in his mouth: "Thank you, if it weren't for you today, I would be miserable." ”

He himself didn't expect that the Black Pupil Mo Jue would actually take advantage of his unstable mind to plan to forcibly break through the seal, if it wasn't for Li Ling's voice to wake him up, I'm afraid it would really make the Black Pupil Mo Jue succeed.

"Okay, okay, hurry up and put away the Qingxin Fruit, this girl is upset when she sees it. ”

Li Ling turned around and waved her hand casually before she spoke, looking arrogant, but this action was just to hide her slightly flushed face.

Mo Jue naturally couldn't see the other party's face from this angle, and after listening to the other party's words, he threw the branch in his hand into the storage ring with a solemn face, at this moment he didn't want to see this so-called Qingxin Fruit again, as soon as he saw it, he would think of the old blacksmith's family.

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, but this didn't mean that Mo Jue had forgotten about it, he just suppressed it in the depths of his heart, planning to wait for this matter to be over.

Then Mo Jue took out the inheritance Sinan and held it in his hand, and injected spiritual power into it, the pointer on it slowly rotated with the injection of spiritual power, and when he finally stopped, he pointed in the direction of the east, and then the pattern on the compass lit up, and the spiritual power condensed into a portrait in the air above the compass.

It was a picture of a mountain forest, and it was drawn from a bird's-eye view, and one of the places was shining slightly.

"Huh, isn't this a sword?"

At this time, Li Ling looked back and saw this scene, and couldn't help but speak.

It turns out that this map of mountains and forests, if you look closely, it is indeed a mountain forest, but if you look at it roughly, it looks more like a sword crawling with rust, and the point where it shines is exactly at the tip of the sword.

At this time, Mo Jue also noticed that in the lower right corner of the portrait, there were four big characters written on the inscription, 'Demon Forest Map', and then carefully observed the scene described above, and he instantly deduced his location.

The most striking feature of the portrait is a blue gem dotted with the hilt of the sword, which does not look very large, but it is the only place where it is.

If you bring it into the geographical location of the demon forest, it is not difficult to find that this sapphire is the lake that Mo Jue met yesterday, and then estimate which direction he has been walking for a long time, and then he will understand where he is.

On the picture, large or small circles are also depicted with faint lines, and the things drawn inside are also different, the most striking is that a blood-red emperor character is written in the center of the portrait.

Li Ling also noticed that word, and couldn't help but ask: "The other circles represent the words of the demon clan, so what does this imperial character mean?"

Mo Jue glanced at her in surprise when he heard this, he didn't expect the other party to guess so much information.

In fact, the circles in the painting are not marked arbitrarily, just one circle after another is drawn with very shallow lines.

However, surprised and surprised, Mo Jue still opened his mouth to explain: "These circles should represent the territory of those demon clans, and the word in the center should represent the demon emperor, and it can also be said that the entire demon forest is its territory." ”

After Mo Jue finished explaining, Li Ling said excitedly: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!"

"We?"

Li Ling, who had just raised his feet and was about to leave, suddenly paused when he heard Mo Jue's puzzled voice, only to realize that she didn't know when she actually regarded Mo Jue and her as a whole, so she could only say in a curtive voice: "Hehe... It's embarrassing. ”

If it was something else, Mo Jue didn't care about walking with Li Ling, no matter how much he didn't deal with it, there were still many people in this demon clan's territory.

But this matter is related to the inheritance of the sect, just now I saw the map for her and Mo Jue didn't check it for a while, and now he still wants to go with him, Mo Jue inevitably became suspicious in his heart, and said in his mouth: "Isn't your thing done, now you can go back." ”

After that, Mo Jue stretched out his hand and grabbed the hilt of the Evil Sword, as long as Li Ling's words were not logical, he could only fight with him.

The inheritance of the sect is the top priority, and it must not be careless.

Mo Jue knew this truth, and he didn't believe that Li Ling would not know. Originally, Mo Jue didn't have a good impression of Li Ling, who had cheated himself many times, thinking back to his various behaviors after meeting her, he first drew his sword against him without saying anything, and the identity of the disciple of the Sword Sect was not proved in the slightest. Then after Mo Jue defeated the ape demon, he followed him all the time, and it was hard not to be suspicious.

Mo Jue's gesture made Li Ling a little incredulous, and pointed at Mo Jue and said angrily: "Sword player, you want to kill me? I just gave you all the Pure Heart Fruit, do you know how precious this is... Forget it, you don't understand it anyway. ”

Somehow, a feeling of grievance rose in Li Ling's heart, obviously he didn't do anything, and he gave away a precious alchemy material for nothing, who expected that the other party would turn his face and not recognize people, thinking of this, the tip of Li Ling's nose was a little sour.

"Then why are you following me? ”

Mo Jue asked coldly, he felt a little strange since last night, the other party obviously followed the traces he left behind, and found such a lame excuse.

Being asked by Mo Jue like this, Li Ling was even more aggrieved in his heart, and he fell into tears without holding back his tears: "Isn't it all you, I ran so far with me, and I don't know the way, so I can only follow you, what a murderer!"

The sudden change made Mo Jue a little unable to react, why did he suddenly cry, wasn't he very fierce when he chased and killed him before, how could this be obviously so fragile.

Li Ling's tears not only made Mo Jue stunned, but even she herself was stunned, she didn't expect to cry at all, and not only did she not show signs of stopping, but the more she cried, the more aggrieved she became, usually her senior brother didn't dare to bully her like this.

At this moment, Li Ling was like turning on a switch, and the tears kept sliding down like an absolute mention, Li Ling looked at Mo Jue with teary eyes, and his hands were tightly pinching the corners of his clothes.

Where has Mo Jue seen this situation, he really doesn't know how to comfort a girl who is crying, and put the half-unsheathed evil sword back into the sheath, Mo Jue tried to comfort the other party in a little panic: "This... Don't you cry, okay? If you have something to say, if you can't do it, you can beat me up, don't cry, please..."

As he spoke, Mo Jue himself was about to cry, this was simply embarrassing him, if he knew this, it would be better to let Li Ling beat himself.

"Then are you still driving me away?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Ling immediately asked, if it weren't for the fact that there were still two tear stains on his face, Mo Jue thought that the appearance of pear blossoms with rain just now might have been pretended by the other party.

But Mo Jue didn't have the slightest solution, so he could only shake his head silently and said: "It's not a question of whether to drive you away or not, it's a matter of the inheritance of the master, I have to be cautious, I hope you will forgive me." ”
