"Looks like you're still going to do it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
At midnight, the moon was empty. Li Yanliang suddenly emitted flames outside his body, and around him, those lonely souls and wild ghosts finally couldn't help but move.
These ghosts have different deaths, but they are all extremely resentful, and their yin qi is extremely deep, their eyes are vicious, and they seem to be eager to kill Li Yanliang alive.
"The cycle of life and death is the way of heaven. You stay in the world, devour people's lives, and go against the way of heaven, and it is your misfortune to be encountered by me today!" Li Yanliang was born with an extremely yang body, so he chose to practice fire art, which was just right to restrain this yin and evil thing.
The flames outside Li Yanliang's body became more and more intense, and he attacked this group of wild ghosts. This group of ghosts was menacing at first, but when they saw Li Yanliang attacking, they were all so frightened that they dodged everywhere and didn't dare to approach.
Li Yanliang was attacking the wild ghost here, but the golden retriever tilted his head to show a puzzled look, because it couldn't see the soul body, what it saw now was Li Yanliang attacking the air indiscriminately, so it was puzzled.
At that moment, the children of the village suddenly ran up to them and shouted, "Stop!"
Li Yanliang put away his offensive and looked back at the child, who was also looking at Li Yanliang, and said in a deep voice: "You are really not an ordinary person. ”
The flames on Li Yanliang's body gradually extinguished, and he said to the child: "You are not an ordinary person, tell me why you don't let me hurt this group of lonely souls and wild ghosts, otherwise I will kill them immediately." ”
"Well, let me tell you the story of my arrival in this village, these wild ghosts are also innocent. The child's eyes became lonely, and he sat down on a large rock nearby and began to speak.
"More than 100 years ago, I followed my father and his friends to this isolated village in front of me. At that time, the village was empty, and everyone was going to rest in the village for a day and then leave. When I woke up the next day, I found that all the people in the village were gone. I ran out of the village looking for a trace of the people, but my father and they seemed to have disappeared from the world. ”
"I was young, eight years old. I was scared, lonely, helpless, fearful, confused, all the negativity came up, and I felt like I was in a dead end. I was very decadent at first, but then I felt that I should not give up, and that I should go out and find the post house outside and ask for help. ”
"So I headed east and came across a mass grave. There were corpses all over the place, and there was no sign of any living thing, and I was very scared, but I had to walk hard. Just as I walked into the mass grave, I unfortunately found the bodies of my father and others. At that time, I no longer felt scared because I was desperate. I wanted to go outside and ask for help, but what I didn't expect was the news of my father's death. ”
"My mother died early, and my father and I lived together. My father was my only support, and I didn't know what happened that night, but I felt inexplicably sad and even more grief-stricken. I was so sad that I fainted. When I woke up, I found myself back in the village, and there was a strange old man sitting next to me. ”
"The old man was mute, and he looked very honest. Since then, he has taken care of me every day and doesn't know where to get the food. Later he gave me a very bitter grass, I don't know what kind of grass it was. When I took it, I suddenly had psychic powers, which turned my eyes into yin and yang eyes, and I could see things that I shouldn't see. ”
"I saw that my father's soul was always by my side. He told me that it was an old dryad who killed them that night, that it was my father's friend who lured the dryad away, and that I was still sleeping at the time, and that I survived. Later, I learned that the dryad was the dead tree in the mass grave, and the dead tree used the soul as its nourishment and lived by absorbing the soul. Luckily, for some reason, the dryad was suddenly unable to devour the souls, but it still bound the souls it killed, and if any soul wanted to escape, it would destroy it completely. ”
"The souls within this radius of a hundred miles are all controlled by the dryad. When my father was about to escape with his friends while the dryad was sleeping, just as they were about to escape from the Dryad's control, some vicious demon suddenly woke up the Dryad, and my father and his friends were annihilated by the Dryad's beating. I've been staying in the village so that I can one day avenge my father!"
"I think I said this, you should have doubts. Why hasn't the dryad killed me for more than a hundred years, and I've survived, and I've always remained like a child? I don't know why, I guess it's because of the strange grass that the dumb man gave me. Now in this whole village, only the old mute and I live. The reason why I didn't let you stay in the village was because I wanted you to leave quickly so that you wouldn't be discovered by the dryad, and because what you said made me think that you were in the same league as the dryad, I didn't tell you why. ”
"What did I say that caused you to doubt us?" Li Yanliang wondered.
"Because you asked me if there was a place to keep flowers in my neighborhood, and my father told me that the dryad's lair was among the flowers!"
Looking at the strange person in front of him who looked like he was actually more than 100 years old, Li Yanliang sighed secretly, although this person has lived for more than 100 years, he is still a child, after all, he has not been in contact with the outside world for more than 100 years, and his mentality is difficult to mature.
Looking at him, Li Yanliang shook his head and sighed: "If I am in the same group as that tree demon, why should I ask you where there is a place to raise flowers?"
"This ...... It seems that I am too careful. But you're also very powerful, you can catch fire on your body, you go and burn that dryad to death!"
Li Yanliang looked at him with a look of impatience, and said, "I will definitely deal with that tree demon, you tell me what your name is first." ”
"My name is Gongsun Mao, you can call me Xiao Mao!"
Li Yanliang shook his head and said, "You are all from my grandfather's generation, how can I call you by your nickname? ”
"You call me grandpa? I'm a grandfather, I'm a grandfather!" Gongsun Mao was very excited, shouting, completely in the mentality of a child.
"I've been a grandfather for more than 100 years. Who can know how lonely it is for me to live in the village with the old mute for more than 100 years, I just want to kill the tree demon to avenge my father, but I have wasted a hundred years of time!
Li Yanliang sighed deeply, and at this time, Lao Wang and Lori both walked out of the tent and were woken up by the movement outside.
"Why is he here?" said Lori, pointing to Gongsun Mao who was kneeling on the ground.
Li Yanliang briefly told what happened to Gongsun Mao, and Lori and the others sighed after hearing it.
Especially Lori, she is more sympathetic to Gongsun Mao, because the two of them are the same, they will always look like they don't look big...
At this time, Li Yanliang looked at the lonely ghosts hiding around, and asked loudly, "You have been following us all the way, what do you want?"
At this time, this group of wild ghosts all appeared, and Lori, Lao Wang and Ah Meng, three people who can't see ghosts, can also see them. One of the imps said in a trembling voice, "We can't help it, it's the Dryad who ordered us to take its things back." Because you took the treasure of the Dryad!"
Lori took out the white bones hidden on her body and said, "This should be the treasure that the old dryad wants, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's it! The Dryad said that only this treasure can keep it young forever!"
