Chapter 21 The man moves to life, and the tree moves to die.
Li Xiuyuan was angry because of Qingmei's death, and he didn't have a good impression of this sacred tree in Lanruo Temple, maybe this sacred tree would be the thousand-year-old tree spirit of Lanruo Temple in the future, so today he was determined to burn this thousand-year-old banyan tree with a fire.

Only in this way can you vent the hatred in your heart.
Moreover, judging from the previous signs of the banyan tree being windless and automatic, and the trunk bleeding, this banyan tree has clearly enjoyed countless years of incense offerings, and it is obvious that it has attained the Tao, and it is not shallow.
In this case, Li Xiuyuan Jedi did not believe that Qingmei's death had nothing to do with this banyan tree.
All kinds of reasons combined made Li Xiuyuan so determined to destroy this tree demon.
However, the presiding officer of Lanruo Temple and the monks are desperately blocking it, for them, this thousand-year-old banyan tree is the symbol of Lanruo Temple, and it is also the treasure of Lanruo Temple, how can people give a fire.
The two parties were at loggerheads for a while.
Master Likong stood aside at this moment, counting the Buddha beads on his chest, and said in his mouth: "Tribulation, calamity, it is really a great calamity." ”
At this moment, he slowly paced forward and said, "Stop, let this benefactor burn this sacred tree." ”
"Master, how can this be done, that sacred tree is the most important thing in this temple. The host of Lanruo Temple was surprised.
Master Likong shook his head slightly and said: "This benefactor is right, there should be such a catastrophe in the Divine Tree today, everything is fixed, everything is fate, let him go." ”
The host of Lanruo Temple was really unwilling to persuade again, and in the end, there was really no way to disobey Master Kong's intentions, as long as he waved away the monks and let the three guards of the Li family go.
Li Xiuyuan glanced at Master Kong, and didn't say much, but waved his hand: "Burn." ”
"Yes, young master. ”
Immediately, the two guards carried the dry wood under the big tree, and then raised their torches to light the dry wood, and in a short time the fire was everywhere, and the smoke was billowing out.
"Fluttershy, there's a lot of smoke here, let me take Plum out of here, I can't let Girl get hurt again. Li Xiuyuan picked up Qingmei's cold corpse, and then strode out of here.
Fluttershy cries, nods her head, and follows with tears in her eyes.
Li Xiuyuan originally wanted to take Qingmei's body to the meditation room, and then let the guards go to Guobei County to prepare the coffin, and the sacrifice planned to bury her properly.
But not far after he had walked out, dark clouds rolled over the sky, followed by a torrential downpour.
The rainstorm came suddenly and hurriedly, without the slightest warning.
And what is even more strange is that the impartiality under this rainstorm just shrouded the huge banyan tree, the bean-sized rain fell, and in a short moment the flame under the banyan tree was directly extinguished, and when the rain stopped, all the dry firewood was already soaked, and the smoke was gone, and although the trunk of this huge banyan tree was a little scorched, it was not much damaged at all.
The other pilgrims were stunned when they saw this scene, the manifestation of the divine tree was already shocking before, but they didn't expect this thing to be even more evil, and suddenly a heavy rain poured out the firewood, so wouldn't it be impossible to burn the banyan tree.
Sure enough, it's a sacred tree, and it's really incomparable.
For a time, the pilgrims were kneeling and praying for blessings.
The residence of Lanruo Temple also said at this moment, "Amitabha, Master Li, you have also seen it, even Heaven will not allow Li Gongzi to burn this sacred tree, Li Gongzi should follow God's arrangement and stop, otherwise Li Gongzi will be punished by God." ”
"Young Master, what should I do now. Several of the guards also ran over and asked, a little frightened.
As ordinary people, they have always been very afraid of this divine and ghostly thing.
Li Xiuyuan said at this moment: "What kind of arrangement from heaven, master don't talk nonsense, this demon tree has been practicing for nearly a thousand years, just now it just exerted its magical powers, attracted rain clouds, and extinguished the fire on its body, but the more it is so, the more it proves that this tree demon is extraordinary, and it must not be left today." ”
After saying that, he turned to say: "You don't need to set fire, cut down this banyan tree with a knife, I will see what tricks it can play." ”
"Young master, this banyan tree is so big, if you really want to cut it, I don't know how long it will be, it's better to let the small one go back to Guobei County and bring a little more manpower over, when the time comes, dozens of people will prepare tools, and this banyan tree can be cut down within an hour." One of the guards said.
"Don't worry, you can cut down as much as you can, even if you can't cut down this banyan tree today, you can't make it feel good. Li Xiuyuan said coldly.
"Yes, young master. ”
The three guards immediately pulled out the sharp steel knife at their waists and slashed at the banyan tree.
"Keng~!"
However, when the steel knife fell on the banyan tree, the bark suddenly became as hard as fine iron, and the steel knife fell on it without hurting it in the slightest, but the guard felt that the palm of his hand hurt, and the steel knife in his hand was shocked and flew out.
"Big, big young master, this tree is so weird, it suddenly became extremely hard, and the small one really can't be cut. ”
"Look, young master, this knife is rolled up. ”
"Young Master, my hand seems to have been broken. ”
Li Xiuyuan was even more angry when he saw this, "Okay, what a thousand-year-old tree demon, it is really not shallow, but the more this is the case, the more Qingmei's death has to do with you, let you go for the time being, and tomorrow after I finish dealing with things, I will come to kill you." ”
He knew that once he left a certain range, he would not be able to suppress the thousand-year-old dryad, so this dryad could use his magical powers, attract rain clouds, extinguish the flames, and make his trunk indestructible, without the steel knife being damaged.
But he couldn't stop the thousand-year-old dryad here forever.
Because Li Xiuyuan is still holding Qingmei's corpse now, he can't let Qingmei's corpse be exposed outside the wilderness, which is a great disrespect to the deceased.
And what his guard said was right, there are too few people now, even if he really wants to cut down the banyan tree, it will take a day or two, and now there is a guard who has injured his hand, which is even slower.
Instead of this, it is better to go to Guobei County to mobilize people to come over and do it together, and then the banyan tree can be cut down without much effort.
"Let you dryad live one more day. Li Xiuyuan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go." ”
He didn't want to ignore Qingmei's corpse because of fighting with the dryad, so he gave up the idea of fighting this banyan tree to the end today.
But if Li Xiuyuan insists, he will definitely be able to fight.
He has a delicate heart, any demons and monsters will be suppressed by himself, and he can't get close to his body, and if he fights in the end, he will definitely win.
With a few guards, and the grief and unwillingness in his heart, Li Xiuyuan left the back mountain.
After a few of them left.
Master Likong just said, Amitabha, walked under the huge banyan tree and said: "Divine tree, divine tree, today God left you a glimmer of life you should grasp, Li Shizhu is born noble, if he insists on cutting you, you will die tomorrow, the old monk suggests that you should flee as soon as possible, leave here, don't be found by Li Shizhu, otherwise it will be a catastrophe." ”
"Master, don't hear people move alive, trees move dead, how can this big tree grow here for more than 900 years can be easily moved, once it moves, it will hurt the foundation, and it is not far from death, then Li Xiuyuan is unforgiving, obviously his wife and concubine Shouyuan have died under the sacred tree, how can he blame others. A pilgrim suddenly spoke, but saw that he was dazed, his eyes were blank, and he seemed to be confused by something.
Master Likong folded his hands and said: "Amitabha, what this donor said is very true, but what Li Shizhu said is also true, that woman is not only a pilgrim, but also came to worship God, and now she has died under the sacred tree, that is, the sacred tree is not well protected, how can there be no duty, the sacred tree has enjoyed the incense offerings of the pilgrims, so it should be for the pilgrims to eliminate the disaster, how can you only be reluctant? Now the divine tree does not act, it has caused this difficulty, this is the cause and effect. ”
"However, the Divine Tree has been helping people to eliminate disasters and solve problems for many years, and it also has a lot of merits, and now God has arranged for Master Li to leave, which is to imply that the Divine Tree will take this opportunity to leave this place and avoid killing and robbing. ”
"Thank you, Master, for your advice. ”
The pilgrim was silent at once, and at last his eyelids sank, and he gradually closed his eyes, but soon, the pilgrim opened his eyes again and immediately regained his spirit.
The pilgrim touched his head and said a little strangely: "What happened to me just now, why did I seem to fall asleep all of a sudden?"
Seeing this, Master Likong couldn't help but sigh helplessly, and then said: "This incident happened in the Lanruo Temple, which is not only the misfortune of the girl, but also the misfortune of the Lanruo Temple. ”
"Yes, master. "Lanruo Temple presided over the answer.
The other monks also folded their hands and spoke in response.
