promised to save the old locust tree for the little girl, but in fact, Li Fuyao was a little sure, but not big, after all, he was the kind of swordsman who walked slowly on the fork in the road, not the kind of cultivation path that the monks of Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism and Buddhism walked, and there were many things in it, Li Fuyao was not good.

After all, the swordsman is in the same vein, except for fighting, the rest of the things are not good at no matter how you look at it.

It's just that when he really started to look at the old locust tree, he had some eyebrows, the big locust tree in front of him was actually not far from the transformation, and it was almost a demon cultivator who had embarked on the road of cultivation, if he gave this old locust tree decades of time, maybe this old locust tree would really be able to embark on the road of cultivation, but before that, he thought that the fire was a big test given to it by heaven and earth, and it chose to save the little girl, so he left the answer in the big test, but this answer was obviously not correct in the eyes of heaven and earth, so it failed to set foot on the road, but the situation was getting worse and worse, when Li Fuyao was in Jianshan, often hear Xi Chunan talk about the monks in this world, the monks of the three religions have their own system and don't need to say much, the swordsman is a sword, and there is no need to involve the flow of heaven and earth, but in the mountains and rivers, if there is an opportunity to embark on the road of cultivation, it will more or less experience such a big test, the content of the exam is also simple, nothing more than to make a choice, the choice made will directly affect the future of the road, this old locust tree that had a chance was in that big test to choose to save this little girl, so lost this luck, no chance to embark on this road。

Saving people is a good thing, but there are many things in this world that are the result of good deeds and no reward.

I can't tell.

Li Fuyao has a sword in his body, and the swordsman who is unhindered by heaven and earth is even more intelligible.

It's just that this kind of little demon cultivator who has lost his luck, if there is a master who is willing to make up for it, it is not difficult, but Li Fuyao, who is standing in front of it now, is obviously not that kind of master.

But Li Fuyao still has a way.

Among the mountains and rivers, the understanding of demon cultivation, the swordsman can be called the first, after all, in the first war, the swordsman was the most feared monk of the demon cultivator, and in the past six thousand years, there are occasional mountain and river monks in the demon land, and most of them are swordsmen.

The lantern he took out was given to him by the old ancestor Xu Leng.

This is one of the few magic weapons on Sword Mountain, and it is also a magic weapon that can drive away evil spirits.

Of course, if Li Fuyao wanted to, this lantern could still illuminate something.

For example, the wisdom of this old locust tree today.

After lighting the lantern, Li Fuyao put it under the old locust tree.

The lights in the lantern flickered, and a moment later, a silver-haired old woman stepped out of the tree and bowed to Li Fuyao.

The old woman knelt on the ground and said sincerely: "Thank you to the immortal master for rescuing, the old woman is grateful." It's just that the old woman is already a dying person, and she begs the immortal master to save Wen Yao. ”

Li Fuyao looked at the silver-haired old woman and said calmly: "It's not a rescue, now it's just a way to wake up your mind, if this lantern is extinguished, you will still be the same as before, I want to know the whole story of the fire that day, you tell me one by one, I only consider whether to rescue or not." ”

The old woman nodded, and began to tell the story of the day, "On the first day that the young man came to the Wen family, in fact, the old woman had already seen that his true body was not a person, but a sparrow, and the cultivation realm was not high, in fact, compared to the immortal master, it was much worse, but the transformation was there, and the old woman cultivated to be low, although she had spiritual wisdom, but she was still not that person's opponent, and before she transformed into a shape, if she wanted to do something, the price she paid was a lot greater." Therefore, after the sparrow came to the Wen family, the old woman did something at the beginning, but the sparrow did not hide it at the beginning, never put the old woman in his eyes, and explained the whole thing very clearly under the tree, saying that this Wen master was a hunter in his previous life, and when he went up the mountain to hunt, he shot both his parents and his parents, and the sparrow has always held a grudge, and occasionally had the opportunity to embark on the road of cultivation and wanted to go down the mountain to take revenge, but the last life of the Wen master was dead, and after reincarnation, he became the current Wen master, after the sparrow worked hard to find it, he turned into Wen Yan and entered the Wen family as a distant relative, and then there was the fire before。 It's just that before the fire, the sparrow said when to set the fire, so before the fire, the old woman did her best to save Wen Yao, even if she kept the last bloodline of the Wen family, it was not the Wen family's planting grace to the old woman, now the old woman's time is running out, I think that the sparrow will come back recently to harm Wen Yao, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so I implore the immortal master to save Wen Yao, such a good family, the old woman really can't bear to watch them die in Huangquan, besides, this Wen Yao is only so old, how to make it?"

Li Fuyao was silent and did not rush to speak.

The silver-haired old woman raised her head, the wrinkles on her face were squeezed together, looking a little scary, and she said desolately: "The immortal master can't bear to see death and not save it?"

Li Fuyao still didn't speak, the old woman's words before seemed to be reasonable, and there were no major mistakes, but Li Fuyao was still unwilling to believe her so easily, after all, he still felt a little suspicious in those words, for example, since the sparrow had worked hard to find Master Wen's life, it was not easy, and he knew that there was an old locust tree here that had been opened, why should he tell the date of arson, aren't you afraid that this hard work will be in vain?

Since the sparrow did not swagger into the Wen family to kill people directly, but possessed the body of a distant relative Wen Yan, that is, he was still afraid of something, afraid of being known, otherwise he would not have stayed in the Wen family for so many days before he started, according to Li Fuyao's conjecture, in fact, if this sparrow is not afraid of being discovered by some monks, there is something he cares about in the Wen family, and he needs to plan carefully.

Otherwise, things wouldn't be so complicated.

But if it's the latter, then this old locust tree may not be the idea of fighting that thing.

Mountain spirits, if they don't cultivate enough, they won't take the initiative to provoke the secular people, after all, there are still a handful of monks in this world who like to hunt down these demon cultivators who are not cultivating enough, either to take the demon pill or to accumulate merit.

But no matter which one they encountered, it was not something that these little friars could match.

It's just that the Dayu border has always been much more chaotic than many places, and there are not many people in charge.

The old woman said sadly and indignantly: "As a monk on the mountain, is it possible that the immortal master doesn't care about the life or death of the people under the mountain?"

Li Fuyao's expression was complicated, and this was the third time he had kept silent.

When the two confronted each other, in fact, the little girl Wen Yao had been looking at this side, but after Li Fuyao lit the lantern, Wen Yao, the old woman who walked out of the tree, couldn't see it, and could only see Li Fuyao standing alone in front of the tree and babbling something, but she didn't hear it clearly, but seeing that this fairy brother was so serious, the little girl didn't dare to answer.

He was left alone to continue talking.

In front of the tree, Li Fuyao lifted the lantern and said calmly: "If you still don't make it clear, I will extinguish the lantern, don't worry, I will save the little girl, but I won't guarantee after you, I can save you, you need to know this, but the premise of all this is that you are honest, if you still have some ideas for yourself, so you hide it, don't say much, I will blow out this lantern immediately." ”

The old woman looked up at the flickering lantern with a complicated expression.

Li Fuyao waited patiently.

After a while, the old woman made up her mind to tell the whole story, and after Li Fuyao listened patiently, she nodded, and then didn't say much, and directly blew out the lantern.

After putting away the lantern, Li Fuyao turned to look at the little girl.

The little girl looked at Li Fuyao with a look of hope.

Li Fuyao rubbed her head and said softly, "It's okay, it'll be fine." ”

The little girl will be skeptical.

Li Fuyao didn't say much, just led the little girl to the front steps of the house, handed her the steamed bun before, and took the chopsticks to her, and then laughed softly: "I'll stay for a few days, let's save it slowly, but you have to eat well, otherwise it will be sad to see it." ”

The little girl who took the chopsticks nodded, and her little face was completely forced to show a smile.

Li Fuyao didn't break it, but he was a little distressed.

Then the little girl was eating seriously, and Li Fuyao was holding her cheeks and looking out of the door, with a complicated expression.

He wants to save the old locust tree, it's very simple, just use a demon pill that Qinghuai gave him before, let the old locust tree eat it, not only to bring the dead back to life, but also to walk a lot of distance on the road of cultivation, but even so, it has not solved the fundamental problem, what if the old locust tree still has evil intentions and plots against the treasure on this little girl?

Even if she doesn't plot, the sparrow goes and returns, this old locust tree can't be stopped, what if it can't be stopped, it's not that the little girl can only die in vain, he Li Fuyao can naturally take the little girl away, but what is the point of taking the little girl away?

The little girl's heart is here, and it has no effect to take people away.

Therefore, the only thing Li Fuyao can do now is to wait for the sparrow, and when he feels that this old locust tree is no longer able to protect the little girl, and comes to fetch the treasure.

It was when Li Fu shook out his sword to slash the demon.

It's just that how long it will take, even Li Fuyao can't say.

So after the little girl finished eating, when Li Fuyao went to return the empty bowl, he said to Liu Yuanlu by the way that he wanted to stay and repair her house for the little girl.

Not to mention a period of time, even if Li Fuyao is determined to stay in this village for a year and a half, it is more than enough.

After Li Fuyao thanked him, he left Liu Yuanlu's house and went to the Wen family's house.

Liu Yuanlu, who was standing in the courtyard, sighed: "Li Gongzi is a good person, really a good person. ”

The woman holding the child smiled and nodded.

When he returned to the Wen family's house, Li Fuyao carried a broom in his hand, and after coming to the yard, he first swept the yard clean for the little girl, and then threw the broom to the little girl, and left the courtyard by himself.

Before Liu Yibai went to Sword Mountain, he was a swordsman, but he was a carpenter before he became a swordsman, so he was proficient in carpenter work, several wooden swords of Li Fuyao before, and the scabbard and the sword box behind it were all from Liu Yibai's hand, Li Fuyao also consulted with this Uncle Liu for a few days when he had nothing to do before, the craftsmanship is not exquisite, but it is still passable, so it is not too difficult to do something.

The two pieces of wood he brought back were to make a wooden door for the little girl, and as for the house, he needed to go to Liu Yuanlu to ask for some gray tiles from the tile kiln in the village.

It's just that the expected half-day scene can make a wooden door, but it disappointed Li Fuyao, who was busy with this wooden door all afternoon, still failed to finish, until the evening, when the moon and stars were scarce, it was only hastily formed, and it had not yet been polished.

Li Fuyao wiped the sweat from his forehead, sat on the steps, the little girl next to him was originally hazy, but after seeing Li Fuyao coming, she came to her senses, and after an afternoon, she had already lost any hostility towards Li Fuyao.

After seeing Li Fuyao sitting over, the little girl took the initiative to ask, "Brother Immortal, do you immortals know how to do anything?"

Li Fuyao frowned, waved his hand, and said, "How come?"

The little girl smiled innocently: "How can the fairy brother even do the door, I heard my mother say before, anything can be done." ”

Li Fu shook his head, "Where is it so easy, I can make wooden doors because someone teaches me, and if no one teaches me, I won't be able to, for example, I don't know how to dress up your girl's family, and I can't plow the fields and farm." There are a lot of things that won't anyway. ”

The little girl whispered a little melancholy at this time: "I don't know how to dress up, my mother said before that she would teach me when I grew up, but before I grew up, my mother died first." ”

Speaking of the back, the little girl choked up a little.

Li Fuyao rubbed her little head, pointed to the sky, and said softly: "Brother Fairy, I, I have liked to look at the stars for a long time, do you know why, it is because some people who originally accompanied you will become stars in the sky when they leave you one day, your father and mother are like this, if you miss them in the future, just look up at the stars." ”

The reason why Li Fuyao likes to look at the stars is definitely not this, but when he said it to the little girl, he had no choice but to say so.

The little girl raised her head and looked at the stars in the sky, and soon asked distressedly: "Brother Fairy, among all the stars in the sky, which one is my father?"

Li Fuyao smiled and said, "The two brightest ones are." ”

Then the little girl groaned, and quickly closed her eyes and stopped looking at the two stars.

Li Fuyao asked in a low voice, "Why don't you go to see them?"

The little girl said with a crying voice: "Brother Fairy, I don't want my father and mother to see me like this." ”

Li Fuyao was silent, he really couldn't find any words to comfort this little girl.

He just remembered the time when he was alone in Whitefish Town before.

The same suffering, but Li Fuyao felt that he was much better off than the little girl's situation.

He thought about it, but found that the little girl was already asleep leaning on his shoulder, and in the moonlight, the little girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, obviously not asleep.

Li Fuyao took her little hand and slowly fused a breath of qi into her body to help her sleep.

Soon, the sound of the little girl's long breathing sounded.

She's been tired for so long.

After the little girl fell asleep, Li Fuyao untied the sword box behind his back, took out the two swords, and put them on his knees to recuperate.

Just thinking about it, Li Fuyao lit the lantern again.

The silver-haired old woman walked out of the tree for the second time today.

With the help of the moonlight, she looked at Li Fuyao, who had two swords on his lap.

This time, he directly frightened his legs, knelt directly in front of Li Fuyao, and said tremblingly: "The little demon doesn't know that the immortal master uses a sword, and he has offended a lot before, so I hope the immortal master will atone for his sins." ”

In the mountains and rivers, the swordsman's ability to deter mountain spirits and wild monsters is far more simple and direct than that of the monks of the three sects.

Li Fuyao smiled calmly: "I suddenly changed my mind, I want to give you a chance, if you want to take over and continue to talk, if you don't want to, then forget it." ”

Before the words fell, Li Fuyao took out the demon pill that Qinghuai had sent out before, which immediately made the old woman very excited.

She knelt on the ground and said sincerely, "Immortal Master, please speak." ”

Li Fuyao said softly: "You make a contract with that little girl, you don't have to be too troublesome, it's the kind of contract that she will die if she dies, and by the way, give me a wisp of your soul, and I will keep it, and I will give you this demon pill, so that you can take a few steps forward on the road of cultivation." Of course, I have a wisp of your soul in my hand, and I will look for you in the future, if you abuse the little girl with evil intentions, I will kill you when I find you, what do you think?"

The old woman's expression was complicated, and she wondered: "The lifespan of secular people is not more than a hundred years, and after a hundred years, Wen Yao will die and the little demon will die, how can the little demon do it?"

Li Fuyao frowned, "Then make a hundred-year contract, within a hundred years you serve her as the master, still she gives birth to you and you will live, she will die when she dies, so that you can take care of it, and you will be free after she dies after a hundred years, but you still have to give me that wisp of soul, I will come to see you once in a hundred years, if she is still fine, I will return the soul to you, or it will still be the same as before, and I will kill you." ”

The old woman hesitated a little and did not rush to respond.

Li Fuyao sneered: "I'll give you another reassuring pill, I'll stay here and wait for that sparrow to come before leaving!"

The old woman made up her mind to agree, "The little demon must take good care of Wen Yao within a hundred years, otherwise she will suffer." ”

Li Fuyao nodded, spread his hand, and motioned for the old woman to hand over that wisp of soul.

After that, it is easy to make a contract, you only need to drop a drop of the little girl's blood on the old woman's heart, and after the contract takes effect, there will be a vision.

The old woman looked at Li Fuyao, and finally peeled off a wisp of her soul and handed it to Li Fuyao.

After Li Fuyao took it, he calmly cut a small hole in the little girl's finger with sword qi.

Release a drop of blood.

Drop on the old woman's heart.

After seeing that the contract was completed.

In the end, Li Fuyao threw the demon pill to the old woman.
