It's time for the next day. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Accompanied by mournful music, paper money fluttered.

The four coffin bearers carried a heavy coffin and walked straight to the back mountain of Lanruo Temple, followed by hundreds of Li family guards.

Each of these guards has white silk tied around their arms, which represents the death of the dead.

Li Xiuyuan planned to follow the last wish of the Qingmei girl and bury her in Lanruo Temple, but to be honest, he didn't want to bury Qingmei here, but wanted to bury her in the ancestral grave of his Li family, so as to show that Qingmei was born a member of the Li family and died a ghost of the Li family.

But the most important reason why he didn't do it was to obey her last wishes.

That is the particularity of Lanruo Temple.

Perhaps, there will be a time to meet in the future.

It's a rare possibility, but it's at least a hope.

When the funeral procession came to the front of the Daxiong Treasure Hall of Lanruo Temple, Master Likong and a few monks waited here early.

"Master Li will start burying the Qingmei donor today?" asked Master Likong.

"Exactly, I wanted to say hello to Master Kong, so that I could borrow a piece of land in the mountain behind your temple to bury the Qingmei girl, but because I was too busy with things, I forgot about it all of a sudden, and I hope that it will not be strange if it is empty. Li Xiuyuan said.

Master Likong replied: "The monk is originally to be convenient with others, the Qingmei donor died in the Lanruo Temple, the old monk also has an unshirkable responsibility, if the Li Shizhu does not dislike it, it is better for the old monk to lead the way, for the Qingmei donor to find a treasure land." ”

"Then there's Master Law. Li Xiuyuan said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please come with the old monk. Master Likong clasped his hands together, and then bypassed the Daxiong Treasure Hall and walked in the direction of the back mountain.

Li Xiuyuan glanced at it and said, "The master seems to have taken the wrong path, and this is the way to the back mountain." ”

"If it's a burial, it's better on this side than there. Master Empty said.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "But there is one more thing to do next, and I understand the kindness of Master Kong." After speaking, he waved his hand, and led the team directly to the back mountain.

Seeing Li Xiuyuan leaving, Master Likong helplessly shouted Amitabha, so he shook his head and paced along.

After coming to the back mountain.

A towering thousand-year-old banyan tree stands in front of you.

The canopy of the tree is like a canopy, covering the sky and the sun, like a small forest, which makes people amazed.

"Millennial Dryad, we meet again. Li Xiuyuan's footsteps stopped, looked at the thousand-year-old banyan tree, and there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

"Yesterday, I couldn't bear to let the green plum girl be in the wilderness, so I had to leave, and I delayed it for a day, so that you survived for a few hours, but today you don't want to escape this catastrophe, I Li Xiuyuan will cut down your thousand-year-old banyan tree in front of the coffin of the green plum girl, I don't believe that you can still exert any magic power with me today. ”

Li Xiuyuan muttered to himself, and finally suddenly shouted: "Where is my Li family's family?"

"Here. More than a hundred people shouted in unison.

The voice is neat and well-trained.

"Take the axe and cut down this banyan tree. Li Xiuyuan coldly ordered.

"Yes, young master. "Everyone responded.

Then hundreds of families untied their axes from their waists, and then rushed to the side of the huge banyan tree with vigorous strides, and cut them without hesitation.

"Click! click!"

The sharp axe fell on the trunk of the huge banyan tree, leaving a deep hole directly on it, and the situation that the steel knife could not cut it yesterday did not happen again, and even the weather did not change, and the banyan tree did not automatically have no wind.

Everything seems very normal.

Li Xiuyuan frowned slightly at this moment, looking at the banyan tree that was constantly being cut out, he vaguely felt that something was wrong in his heart.

This thousand-year-old banyan tree could still show its miracles yesterday, but today it feels like an ordinary tree to him, and there is nothing like it at all.

Hundreds of family members also cut down extremely smoothly.

In less than a moment, the banyan tree was cut out of a circle, and at this rate, the banyan tree would have been cut down in less than an hour.

"What the hell is wrong. Li Xiuyuan looked at the huge banyan tree calmly, and vaguely felt that the banyan tree was much more depressed than yesterday.

It doesn't seem so fresh and energetic anymore.

"Young Master, this banyan tree is strange. A family member suddenly shouted.

"What's weird?" Li Xiuyuan immediately strode over.

Jia Ding pointed to the cut hole and said, "Look, young master, this banyan tree is empty inside. ”

Li Xiuyuan looked at it, and sure enough, the trunk of the banyan tree was empty, only a thick layer of bark on the outside, and there was nothing inside at all.

"Young Master, this place is also empty. Another housekeeper also cut the bark and pointed to the hollow trunk road.

"It's the same here. ”

"I'm the same here. ”

Li Xiuyuan's face immediately changed: "Impossible, how can a banyan tree that has grown for nearly a thousand years be hollow." ”

But when he said this, he suddenly realized something, and looked at Master Void not far away.

At this moment, Master Likong was looking at his nose and nose, pinching the Buddha beads, reciting the scriptures, and he didn't seem to know about this strange thing that was happening right now.

"Keep cutting. Li Xiuyuan shouted.

The crowd responded and continued to cut down the thousand-year-old banyan tree.

After a while, the tree crumbled.

"Get out of the way, the tree is coming. ”

"Poured to the left, beware. ”

With a loud sound of a big tree falling to the ground, the branches were broken, the grass and trees were broken, this sacred tree that has grown here for nearly a thousand years, and has enjoyed countless years of incense worship was directly cut down by Li Xiuyuan with a hundred family members today, and there is no possibility of saving it.

However, when the thousand-year-old banyan tree fell to the ground, everyone looked at it and was surprised to find that the heart of the banyan tree was empty.

It was so empty that there were dozens of people hiding in a big hole.

"Master, has this tree been hollowed out by insects?" asked a family member cautiously.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled coldly: "How can there be traces of being eaten by insects, it is obvious that this tree demon made the golden cicada escape overnight." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Master Kong, intentionally or unintentionally.

"The tree demon moved, it is impossible that there is no movement at all, I heard that last night the monks in the Lanruo Temple read the scriptures all night, and the sound was huge, enveloping the entire temple, I don't know what Master Kong thinks about this matter?"

Master Likong couldn't pretend anymore at this time, and folded his hands and said: "Amitabha, God has the virtue of a good life, this sacred tree has existed before the temple was built, sheltered the temple for decades, and now Li Gongzi insists on cutting down, how can this temple do nothing, now that the sacred tree has gone, please let go of the resentment in your heart, and end this grievance. ”

"I haven't picked up the butcher's knife yet, so why put it down. Li Xiuyuan said: "If the master does this today, I am only afraid that there will be disasters in the future." ”

"Please also ask Master Li Shi to show me. Master Empty said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "There is a way that the tree does not need bark, it will definitely die, this thousand-year-old demon abandoned the bark and fled, if you want not to die, you must find a way to continue your life, and when the time comes, in order to survive, it will definitely harm one party, once this tree demon does this, it will completely degenerate into a demon, and the demon will make trouble, isn't it a great disaster? I don't know how the master of the sky will resolve this catastrophe when the day comes?"

By that day, the old monk was estimated to have passed away, and he could only hope for Li Shizhu. Master Likong clasped his hands together and said with compassion and pain on his face.

Li Xiuyuan was angry and annoyed when he heard this, but it was really not good to vent to the old master of the void.

However, Master Kong really thought about it, and in the future, the thousand-year-old dryad will be in chaos, and he hopes to stop it.

But after all this, Li Xiuyuan can already be sure that this thousand-year-old banyan tree must be the future tree demon grandma, and it will definitely harm one party and kill countless people at that time.

However, now that things had happened, it would be difficult for him to find the thousand-year-old dryad and kill it.

In the end, he had to wave his hand helplessly: "Burn this thousand-year-old banyan tree, and don't leave a single branch." ”

"Yes, young master. The family members responded in unison and began to prepare for the fire, intending to burn the thousand-year-old banyan tree immediately.

Li Xiuyuan didn't look at it, the thousand-year-old tree demon had already escaped, and what remained here at the moment was just an empty shell, even if he was no longer there, there would be no problems, and he didn't want to continue to delay, so that the green plum girl would never be able to be buried.

Immediately, he gave an order and led the coffin-carrying team to a secluded place in the back mountain.

This is the cemetery of Lanruo Temple.

The monks who died in Lanruo Monastery and the travelers are buried here.

"Just dig there. Li Xiuyuan pointed to a small hill on high ground facing the sun and said.

If you have a cheap master here, you will definitely be able to find a piece of feng shui treasure.

However, he didn't use feng shui, so he could only pick a piece of clean, pleasing place to bury the green plum girl.

Immediately, the workers immediately used shovels and hoes to dig graves and erect monuments to prepare for burial.
