Chapter 517: It's a Friend
The moon was exceptionally bright tonight, shining over the open area of the woods, but the atmosphere in the woods was breathtaking.
The Immortal Ancestor copied back the sleeves of his robe, cut off the tip of the long tongue behind him, and before his body fell, he picked up the Zen staff inserted in the ground, floated back and retreated, he hid the token in his arms again, and said with a strong spirit: "The demon king asked me to take the token to search for the big monsters scattered all over the place after the war hundreds of years ago, and your thousand-year-old tree demon is also on the list, but how can you deny it?"
The black-robed bewitching woman laughed loudly, laughing wildly, her voice was not loud but far away, she said: "You toad, you were still a tadpole hundreds of years ago, who are you fooling with a piece of broken wood now! Hurry up and stay away, don't affect the old lady's meal!"
"You!" The Immortal Ancestor was angry, touched his buttocks, and it hurt hotly, he secretly said a bad breath, sealed the acupoint with internal force, and then took out a golden pill and swallowed it, and slowly said to suppress the anger in his heart: "The number one killer under the Demon Throne, isn't the Tree Demon Lord Your Excellency?" I don't think I will admit this mistake. ”
Although the Immortal Ancestor thought very highly of himself, he was extremely humble in front of this thousand-year-old tree demon, even if the other party repeatedly spoke disrespectfully, he actually endured it.
The Millennium Dryad waved his hand and said, "No need to say any more! Seeing that your cultivation is not easy, hurry up and get out! Otherwise, I will eat it with you!"
The Immortal Ancestor couldn't help but say, "It seems that you are either crazy, or you have encountered something, otherwise you will never be able to do this to this Buddha!
He glanced at Li Tianqi and the others who were trapped in the circle of hundreds of little demons, and floated away.
The Millennium Dryad blew lightly, and strong rattans suddenly grew under the feet of Li Tianqi and the others, firmly binding them to the ground.
And the little demons slowly turned into clouds of black smoke and were absorbed back into the body of the thousand-year-old dryad.
"Don't struggle, you're the only ones left who dare to do anything to me. She slowly walked over to Li Tianqi and the others, "It just so happens that I'm hungry too, so I'm just going to try a few of you!"
Listening to her voice, Eshang suddenly shouted, "You can't do it!"
The Millennium Tree Demon had approached at this time, and she stood in front of Eshan, and said disdainfully: "What? Aren't you still capable of this Dao master? You must know that the little trick you are waiting for has no effect on me at all!"
Eshang lifted the sleeves of his robe, revealing the iron chain on his right wrist and said, "Do you remember this chain?"
The thousand-year-old dryad looked at the iron chain that glowed pale blue under the moonlight, but the whole body was dark black, and she couldn't help but move in her heart, she was a little surprised: "You are the ...... in that dungeon"
"Yes, it's my Maoshan Taoist Eshang. "Eshang Road.
The Millennium Dryad looked at it carefully, then took a deep breath, as if secretly sniffing the smell of Eshan's body, and said, "Well, it's indeed you. This beard is sloppy, and I don't recognize you. It's good to keep it as a souvenir. ”
Eshang was brought to the sea by the Baiyi Sect in the Turkic territory, and after many things, of course there was no time to shave his beard. It's just that Li Tianqi and the others are quite puzzled as to why Eshang met this thousand-year-old tree demon, but now is the critical moment, and it is inconvenient for them to interject, so as not to do bad things, so they can only quietly watch Eshang talk to the thousand-year-old tree demon.
Eshang said: "Then you don't hurry up and release us, they are all my friends, don't hurt them!"
The Millennium Dryad smiled and said, "You helped me before, but didn't I repay you too?" I cut off the iron chain with mana attached to it, allowing you to escape. ”
Eshan's face changed, and he was about to say something, when the Millennium Dryad continued: "Look at what scares you, it's just a joke." Since we're all your friends, I'll let you go. ”
While speaking, Li Tianqi and the others only felt that their feet were loosened, and the rattan branches with intricate branches disappeared, and it turned out to be the weeds on the ground that changed.
Li Tianqi was amazed again and again in his heart, he thought that a catastrophe was coming, but who knew that Eshang chatted with her like this, and then resolved the crisis lightly.
Eshan asked, "You also ran out, why are you killing everywhere?"
"I won't talk to you about this mystery. The Millennium Dryad asked rhetorically, "Do you think those two people are also good people?"
When she asked this, she asked Eshang, in his mind, Yang Duwei and Huo Duwei were not good things.
"Let's go. The millennial dryad said, "Don't move around in front of me, make me drool." ”
Eshang hugged his fists and said: "That's good, you can do it yourself." ”
The millennium dryad said, "Each other." ”
After the battle, Li Tianqi and the others knew that they were far from being the opponents of the other party, so they did not stay any longer, and hurried to Linkou under the leadership of Eshang.
After running for about five miles, Li Tianqi and the others stopped in front of a secluded hill and asked about the thousand-year-old tree demon, E Shangben hesitated, but after thinking for a while, he said it one by one.
It turned out that Eshang had been wronged by the government and was captured in Luoyang, and because he knew magic, he was imprisoned in a mysterious dungeon, and he was locked to a large stone weighing thousands of pounds with an iron chain made of special materials.
Eshang tried many methods, but he could not escape the chains, so he had to give up and stay in the dungeon honestly.
Although due to the limitation of the length of the iron chain, Ousan can still move in a small area.
After a long time, he learned that there was a woman imprisoned next door, and the two chatted across a wall, and over time the two became acquainted.
One day, Eshang heard the painful ** voice of the woman next door, and after asking, he learned that she was victimized by someone else's Gu technique, and every rainy day felt a tingling pain all over her body, and the way to remove the Gu technique was to remove the Gu poison in her body.
The woman has practiced spells since she was a child, and she can turn into a big tree and get into the big tree by Eshang to remove the Gu poison inside, Eshang didn't expect that the other party was also a fellow Taoist, so he was naturally happy, although he wanted to help her, but he couldn't implement it because of the limited range of activities.
He told the other party the truth, but the woman said that she could help him break the chain in return.
Eshang had long had the idea of escaping from the dungeon, but he was helpless against the iron chain in his hand, and readily agreed when he heard it, but he first had to solve how he could go to the dungeon next door without alarming the guards.
The woman told him not to bother and wait for her action.
One night, when Eshang was napping, the stone wall in the dungeon on his side suddenly loosened, and a big hole appeared after the stone crushed stone fell, and the thousand pounds of stone that restricted him suddenly turned into a pile of rubble.
Eshang knew that the other party had started to act, so he quickly penetrated from the big hole to the dungeon next door with iron chains in both hands, but he didn't expect that the dungeon space here was more than a thousand times that of his room, very spacious, and in the center there was a big tree as tall as ten zhang, covering an area of more than a hundred zhang.
The trees were bound up and down by many dark iron chains, such as the ones he had on his hands.
Of course, he was shocked to see such a big tree in the dungeon, but the situation was urgent, and he immediately realized that this big tree had changed from the woman he was talking to.
Sure enough, the voice came, it was indeed the woman's voice, she asked Eshang to climb inside from the hole in the tree, find a golden rune, that is, Gu poison, destroy it, and after it came out, she had the ability to cut off the iron chain in Eshan's hand.
Without further ado, Eshang found a hole in the tree, and sure enough, he found the rune that emitted golden light, and he knew that it was a transfiguration technique, so he cast a spell to destroy it.
When Ozan came out of the tree, the giant tree stretched out its branches, which had turned into sharp swords, to cut the iron chains that bound his hands for Oshang.
Unexpectedly, before the iron chain was completely removed, a guard noticed the changes inside, and Eshang did not stay any longer, hurriedly said goodbye to the woman, hid himself, and took the opportunity to escape.
Then it didn't take long to meet Li Tianqi and Xu Shaoyu, and by chance, E Shang decided to go to Chang'an, by the way, to find out the truth of the government, but strange thing, such a big thing happened, the government did not want him.
Hearing E Shang say this slowly, Li Tianqi and the others realized that he knew the thousand-year-old tree demon in this way. It seems that Luoyang is a little strange in that place, and it is no wonder that when he heard him talk about Luoyang, the thousand-year-old imperial capital, he already suspected that the bewitching black-clothed woman known as the thousand-year-old tree demon was acquainted.
Three hundred armored guards with torches and swords at their waists slowly walked over on horseback, led by a majestic general, Li Tianqi recognized this person as General Yuan, who accompanied the emperor to Wudang Mountain secretly.
They had just escaped from the hands of the government and did not dare to make a mistake, so they immediately jumped into the shadows and hid.
I only heard a Qianniu guard next to General Yuan arch his hand and said: "General, let's move forward slowly, will the thousand-year-old tree demon get out of our control?" Do you need to lead a team of men and horses to follow first?"
General Yuan brushed his beard and said, "What's the hurry." I waited too close to see the effect. Don't worry, General, I have my own magic weapon to summon her here. He patted his lower back, looking confident.
"The general is strategizing, everything is under control, but this late night still needs the general to work so hard, and his subordinates really don't want to go!" Qian Niuwei hurriedly complimented again.
General Yuan clenched his fists and said north: "Doing an errand for the emperor, what is this." Well, don't say too much, be careful that if you talk too much, you will lose. He looked around warily.
"Yes!" Qianniuwei said again.
It didn't take long for the group to move on.
Out of control? Li Tianqi and the others listened to it very clearly, and in connection with the experience described by Fang Cai Eshang, could it be that General Yuan was also involved in it?
It seems that Luoyang City still hides a lot of secrets.
