Seeing the tender green seedling rushing down from the treetops, a smoke flashed into the dense forest and disappeared, Steward Wang and the old man's faces were full of hideous color, seeing the cooked duck flying, their hearts were full of unwillingness, but at this moment only the four of them were still awake, Steward Wang and the old man could only scold in a low voice, picked up a tool from the ground and wanted to chase it.

Nian Nian stopped in front of them, frowned, and said, "Don't chase him anymore, he already has spiritual sense, and you can't catch up with him." ”

"Don't chase it, little girl, do you know how precious it is, there may only be one such plant in the whole night, and it is priceless!"

"But he has a consciousness of his own, and he will not want to be caught by you. Do you know what it means for this herb to have spiritual sense?"

The old man laughed: "It's become a refinement! That wood lingzhi has become a refinement! Haha, if this kind of heaven and earth elixir can be bitten by me, I will probably live forever." His eyes were filled with excitement and greed at the moment, and a pair of wrinkled hands rubbed his chin, and his mouth muttered over and over again.

"He has a consciousness of his own, and he may also take on human form, and he will live like a real person," Nian Nian took a deep breath, "so you can't catch him, let alone eat him." ”

"It's nonsense! Even if it can transform into a human form, it is just a medicinal herb in the final analysis, and I will never let it go!" the old man smiled gloomily.

"You girl, don't get in the way here," Steward Wang pushed Nian Nian away, and said to the old man, "Don't waste time with them, that thing has already run away, let's chase after it." Then he went into the forest with the old man.

In the empty and withered meadow, the remaining two people were silent with each other, the tender yellow skirt no longer fluttering, and the butterfly folded its wings, as if to hint at waiting for the end. The golden leaves fell quietly from the top of the tree to the top of the head, and then swirled and lay at the feet, as if silently mocking the tender but eventually aging color.

"Sister, what can I do about this?" Nian Nian stood a little dumbfounded, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly, like a butterfly landing on the tip of a flower.

Zhu Mei glanced in disgust in the direction where the two had left, walked over and wrapped Nian Nian in her arms, and sighed softly. She could feel the mood at this moment of the year. Every year is the same as the King of Namu Lingzhi, they are all things with spiritual sense, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, rain, dew, wind and frost, and even the power of stars and thunder, and they are the same. I don't know how many years it took for the Wood Lingzhi King to have such a strong spiritual power and to have a human ideology, but this group of people had to desperately capture it, and even ・・・・・ eat it!

And compared with it every year, its spiritual power is only a lot more, after all, look at the wood Lingzhi King, although he can know how to use illusions to confuse and disguise himself when resisting people's picking, and can escape when he is found to be the body, but it has not turned into a human form from beginning to end, and from the beginning of the appearance in front of him in the form of a human Nian, the spiritual power contained in his body is undoubtedly more than a hundred times stronger than this wood Lingzhi King. You must know that if an herb wants to transform into the most intelligent human form in all things, the time, opportunity, and environmental conditions required are extremely demanding. Even in a place like Chuanshan with a fairy aura, every year there I have only seen some high-quality heavenly and earthly treasures, but I have not found that any of them can have spiritual sense, or even transform into human form.

If the matter of Nian Nian is found out by someone with a heart, the consequences will be unimaginable! No wonder when he was in Chuanshan, Chen Yin once solemnly told himself not to reveal Nian Nian's identity, it turns out that there is still such a potential danger. Zhu Mei was also secretly surprised in her heart.

"Sister, do they have to catch him?" asked Nian Nian softly.

Zhu Mei stroked Niannian's long hair and did not answer.

"If they catch it every year, will it also be eaten?" at this time, Nian Nian's eyes were at a loss.

Zhu Mei only felt distressed when she heard this, and she hugged Nian Nian harder, "No, you won't." She put her hands on Nian Nian's shoulders, stared at her beautiful but godless eyes, and said seriously: "Nian Nian, no matter what happens, my sister will protect you, and no one can hurt you." If there is, I will make him pay an extremely painful price!" Zhu Mei's eyes were like thousands of miles of ice at the moment, and the slightest cold air flowing under her eyes enveloped the two of them, but her words were like a river thawing in spring, flowing through a dry heart every year.

Nian Nian nodded, and then smiled: "I believe in my sister." She stood up, "However, that little guy is not so lucky," Nian Nian looked at the place where Mu Lingzhi had fled, and muttered, "He didn't love my sister as much as you, there was no one to protect him, once he was caught up by those two people, it would be miserable." ”

Zhu Mei looked at the recovered Nian Nian, quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, how about protecting him every year?"

Nian Nian looked over with wide eyes, and after seeing Zhu Mei nodding, he pursed his lips firmly, and clenched a pair of pink fists, "Since everything started because of me, then I can't stand idly by, I definitely can't let those two succeed!" "He's there, let's go like this. ”

The two of them got into the dense forest from the other direction, but they didn't expect that not long after they left, where the steward Wang and the old man left, the leaves shook slightly, and two embarrassed figures quietly came out.

"Hmph, two girls who have not dried up are actually playing this trick with me. Steward Wang's face was cold at the moment, staring straight at the bushes in front of him.

"Steward Wang, you are still a step ahead, no matter how powerful those two girls are, they can't imagine that we have been hiding in the bushes and waiting to follow them. After the old man came out, he coughed twice, and then said to Steward Wang with a flattering face.

Steward Wang felt very useful when he heard this, and he glanced at the old man, "Of course, Lao Tzu can be a housekeeper in the Hou Mansion, but he can't just slap the horse." He swept his gaze over the people lying around, "Look, how are these people, are they still alive?"

The old man nodded, walked over to one of them, sniffed, checked his pulse, and said that these people had just fainted, and there was nothing serious.

When the steward Wang heard this, he walked to the side of a small servant, kicked him hard, and then walked to the other person, raised his leg a few more times, and scolded while kicking: "Damn thing, what kind of dead person, don't hurry up for Lao Tzu, dare to delay Lao Tzu to make a fortune, Lao Tzu let you be a medicinal herb!"

After a while, the little people lying on the ground were all awakened by him, and a group of people picked up various tools and swayed up from the ground, but they all shrank and lowered their heads.

"Come with me, give me some cleverness in a while," Steward Wang's eyes like poisonous snakes swept coldly over everyone, and finally locked in the direction where the two disappeared every year, "Two girls who don't know the height of the sky, let you live for a while longer, once I get that wood lingzhi, you can wait." Since you feel so sorry for that grass, stay here as fertilizer!" With that, he waved his hand, and everyone followed him into the forest.
