Chapter 43: Misinformation Confuses the Public
The trunk of the old locust tree is mottled and cracked, leaving behind all the traces of time.
If it weren't for the old butler's reminder, no one would have noticed that under the rough bark, there was a looming human face.
Yes, that was the face of Miss Zhangfu, Zhang Yingzhi.
"This is not the first time that Mademoiselle has tried to get out of the house in this way. ”
"Every attempt ends with stumps flying and bleeding all over the ground. ”
"The first few times, Mademoiselle was not so strong, but it was obvious that she was getting stronger each time, and the interval between each attempt to leave the house was getting shorter and shorter. ”
"This time, it happened that the master was not in the house......
"According to what you say, one day, your young lady will rush out of the Zhang Mansion. The middle-aged man at the head frowned, and said thoughtfully, "We are all mortals, although we have learned martial arts, we can't leave the category of mortals, and the speed of strength growth cannot catch up with demons." In that case, why don't you just let her go sooner?"
"My lord is kind-hearted, and he knows that if he lets her out, more innocent people will die under her branches, so ......" The housekeeper sighed and shook his head, "Maybe the lord still has a little bit of reluctance to say it in his heart, and he is reluctant to leave the Zhangfu ......"
Even though his daughter has become a demon, is he still reluctant to let her go? This is the heart of a father......
Middle-aged people are not incomprehensible to this.
But...... Why does it always feel like something is wrong?
"You want us to stop this monster? It's not a joke, is it?" The bald man looked at the demon tree that was on a killing spree, and cold sweat trickled down.
"You can go and discuss with the leader of the alliance and see if you can change the envoy for us?" The middle-aged man at the head glanced at him and said coldly, "I would rather face this monster than face the anger of the alliance leader." If you are brave enough, you go. ”
The bald man suddenly became honest, and said, "I just said it casually......"
At this time, the branches of the old locust tree were already full of people, some of whom had just been hung up, and were still crying out fiercely, while most of the people had lost their consciousness and stared numbly at the people fleeing everywhere under the tree.
In fact, these ordinary people have no possibility of escaping at all.
They were constantly surrounded and driven by the thick, flexible branches of the old locust tree, and then, at the most convenient time, they were pierced through the chest by the branches.
"If you want to stop Miss, you should start doing it sooner! The butler said eagerly.
The middle-aged man said curiously: "Since Miss's purpose is to leave the house, why do you keep staying here to suck blood?"
"She'll only be stronger when she's sucking blood. The butler replied as a matter of course.
"No, you can also suck blood after leaving the house, why do you have to suck blood here?"
"How can there be so many people outside?"
"Makes sense...... But how does it sound that you are deliberately gathering so many people for the demon tree to suck blood?" the middle-aged man said with a suspicious face.
The housekeeper looked a little flustered: "Why are you talking nonsense? Let me tell you, you have to be responsible when you speak! You are a subordinate of my master, and your subordinates must have the consciousness of your subordinates!"
The middle-aged man took a step closer: "Why do you keep urging us to stop the demon tree?" The leader of the Zhang Alliance has repeatedly explained, our task is to prevent the young lady from leaving the mansion, if the young lady will appear in the form of a demon tree, there is no reason for him not to tell us directly, why do you have to wait for you to tell us this? In case we don't meet at all, wouldn't it be a big mistake?"
The housekeeper sneered, gritted his teeth, and said: "How did the master explain to you, how do I know? If the young lady sucks enough blood, you won't be able to control her at all! When the time comes, you will be the one who will die!"
"Won't you die? You keep saying that we will die, but you never worry about your own life! The demon tree will still divide the enemy from the human race? Could it be that you are one of the demon trees?"
"You can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, you are innocent and innocent for no reason, I will definitely report it truthfully in front of the master!" The housekeeper seemed to have let go, and he no longer left half a trace of emotion when he spoke.
The middle-aged man laughed cruelly: "I'll see if you are a human or a ghost first!"
Before the words fell, he stretched out his palm and slapped it towards the housekeeper!
On the palm of his hand, he wore a dark golden glove, which looked like dark red blood in the dark night.
The butler shrank his head, and his whole head actually shrank into his chest in an instant, and then his body turned around, turned into a black shadow, and fell to the ground.
"Sure enough, it's a monster!
The two big men beside him hurriedly brought up a bloodstained chain. The chain looks thin and short, but it takes two big men to lift it, and it looks like it's quite difficult!
"I want to see if you, a monster, can escape the chains given by the alliance master?" the middle-aged man smiled coldly, waved the chains, and was about to break down!
The black shadow that the butler turned into, his body seemed to tremble, and he let out a whimpering sound like a dog, and it bounced up suddenly, and in an instant, he ran away more than ten feet away.
"Phew!"
The middle-aged man shook the chain violently, and the chain was violently stretched several times like a spring, and a sword-shaped light lit up at the tip.
The black shadow was about to flee to the dryad, but it was tied and rolled up by the chains that flew over, and it was immediately pulled back by the middle-aged man involuntarily!
The dryad suddenly stopped preying on other humans, and gathered a dozen or so thick branches, which swept over together, as if to pull the black shadow that the butler had turned into.
The middle-aged man shook his hands, immediately withdrew the chains, looked back and shouted: "Everyone, return to your original post immediately!"
"Commander, why don't you just kill that monster...... I think even if the demon tree is in a tug of war with you, it can tear that monster in half!"
"Hmph! How can I have time to tug at the demon tree! Remember! Our duty, our only duty here, is to prevent Miss Zhangfu from leaving the mansion! Don't worry about anything else! Hate this monster has been delaying us for a long time, hurry back to your post!"
"Yes!" the others agreed.
Although the demon tree easily rolled back to the monster, it still refused to give up, and the roots of the millstone-like tree coiled together and rolled forward, like a moving hill, and the earth shook and chased after it.
A group of people were frightened to death, and they hurriedly began to pull their legs and run wildly!
"Steady! With the weapon given by the alliance leader in hand, this dryad is no threat to us, don't panic!"
When everyone heard this, they calmed down a little.
The middle-aged man took the lead, and everyone quickly returned to the guest room and stood still.
The position where each of them stood was not random, and Zhang Shaoyuan had already designated it before.
"Commander, this room, I'm afraid I can't withstand the blow of that dryad......" said with a sad face.
"What are you panicking about? The alliance leader of the chapter has already made arrangements, don't you have confidence in the alliance leader?" the middle-aged man snorted coldly.
"No, I'm just ......" The man was about to argue, but suddenly felt a silence outside, and couldn't help but wonder, "Hey, why is there no sound, could it be that the demon tree's conscience found out and left on its own?"
"Shhhh
