But after Lu Chengfeng entered the south courtyard of the city, he found that it was not as dilapidated as he imagined, although there were dead branches and fallen leaves everywhere, it looked very cold and desolate, but it seemed that someone had cleaned it.

This makes Lu Chengfeng a little puzzled, this annex seems to cover a lot of area, since someone came to clean it, why didn't anyone renovate it?

Or in the eyes of that person, this courtyard seems to be just a very small thing, insignificant at all.

Or maybe something has happened here, and some people want to keep this place, to keep it as it was. Although it is said that people come to clean it from time to time, many things will remain as they are, at least so that the place will not be completely abandoned.

There is a very large ginkgo tree in the middle of this castle garden, which looks to be at least a hundred years old, and the bottom of the tree is full of fallen ginkgo leaves, which seems to still show the tenacious vitality of this ginkgo tree.

At least the annex is an unattainable existence for many families, even if they work hard for a lifetime, they may not be able to obtain such a huge annex, which shows how rich or powerful the owner of this annex was.

"That killer disappeared here, could it be that there is a secret passage or something?"

Lu Chengfeng took a turn in the south courtyard of the city, and found that this place is really a suitable place for people to live, there are mountains, rivers, trees, birds, insects, fish, flowers and plants.

Without artificial pruning, whether it is flowers or trees, they all grow appropriately in this courtyard, making the air here exceptionally fresh.

Finding nothing unusual in this courtyard, Lu Chengfeng was about to start going to the room in the courtyard to investigate, although it seemed a little abrupt, he still felt the need to check it out.

And just as he was about to enter a room, he suddenly saw a stone table in front of the door of this room, which looked much cleaner and less dusty.

However, Lu Chengfeng found a small amount of white powder in the dust, although the powder looked very inconspicuous, and the color had changed somewhat.

Lu Chengfeng walked in front of the table, rubbed the white dust on it with his fingers, and then rubbed it.

"Cups?"

Then Lu Chengfeng sniffed the white powder again, and then noticed a faint fragrance of tea, which seemed to be ambergris tea: "Teacup?"

This made Lu Chengfeng even more puzzled, who would be so bored and sit in this somewhat desolate looking courtyard and drink tea.

This also made Lu Chengfeng more convinced that this annex in the south of the city seemed to have an unusual origin and past, and it also made him more curious about the owner of this annex.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Chengfeng began to inspect these rooms one by one, but he was unable to find any useful clues, except for some very dilapidated items, there was nothing else.

Lu Chengfeng went around and around, and returned to the original huge ginkgo tree, and on the opposite side of the ginkgo tree. It's just a small lake, although the area is not particularly large, but the water does not seem to be shallow, and there is a well next to it, and the miraculous thing is that this annex has not been inhabited for so many years, and the well still has abundant well water, and it is very clear.

Lu Chengfeng slapped one hand on the huge ginkgo tree, and then leaned on his body to look at the lake.

"Eh, what kind of kid who doesn't have long eyes actually disturbs the old man's sleep!"

Lu Chengfeng had just been in his mind when he heard a sentence, and it suddenly exploded from his ear, which startled Lu Chengfeng, who was not the slightest psychological preparation, and immediately jumped up from the ground.

"Who?

Lu Chengfeng looked around, but he didn't see a person, but the voice was very close to him, which shocked him, he didn't expect this person to be so mysterious, in the case of his own whereabouts had not appeared, the voice could reach his ears, and he couldn't detect where it came from.

"Boy, I'm right in front of you, and you see me a little like before. ”

The old man's voice actually sounded in Lu Chengfeng's ears, and then in Lu Chengfeng's shock, the trunk of the huge ginkgo tree at that moment actually showed the appearance of a human face.

At this time, Lu Chengfeng's heart was not to mention how shocked, it was the first time he had seen the ginkgo tree that became a spirit, could it be said that this was the legendary demon clan, it was really amazing. There is still such a life form, and through cultivation, it is able to transform itself from a plant into a half-plant and half-animal existence.

"It's amazing. ”

Lu Changfeng couldn't help but marvel, his two eyes stared directly at the ginkgo tree and observed, although he was not a scientist, but his curiosity was also very rich, for the existence of a new life form, Lu Chengfeng not to mention how excited.

To be honest, it was the first time Lu Chengfeng had really seen a demon clan in his life, especially since this tree demon was still living in Jinling City, Kyoto, of the Great Liang Dynasty.

Although it is said that the Great Liang Dynasty is not intolerant of the existence of the demon race, it is extremely rare for a tree demon to live in the Kyoto of the Great Liang Dynasty for so long, and I am afraid that there is only this one exception!

Although he himself is also a demon blood, he can only be regarded as a half-demon. And so far, he has not revealed the body of the demon clan, at most he has exposed the demon qi in his body.

I believe anyone who sees such a scene will be very surprised!

Of course, it does not rule out that some people who are timid or prejudiced against the demon clan will be frightened after seeing the dryad, or they will start cutting down trees.

"Haha!

Lu Chengfeng didn't expect that he would disturb a sleeping dryad in an unexpected situation, and then he smiled very stupidly.

The dryad seemed to be a little sleepy-eyed, and after a while, he said dimly, "Boy, who are you? ”

Lu Chengfeng was also very surprised after hearing the words of this tree demon, they had never met before, why did this tree demon say that he sensed a familiar aura on his body?

"What does the familiar breath think the seniors think is this familiar breath?"

Lu Chengfeng hurriedly asked, but the result made him very disappointed, the previous tree demon sighed, and responded with some struggle: "I can't remember, it seems to be the breath of an old man, but I forgot who she is." ”

At this time, this dryad looks like an old man with Alzheimer's, and the feeling is even a little blurry, although the body of this ginkgo tree looks very healthy, and has a very majestic vitality, but his voice is very old.

Maybe it's because of the snow just now, this ginkgo tree has entered the hibernation period, but because of Lu Chengfeng's accidental intrusion, the ginkgo tree demon that has already entered the hibernation period has woken up again.

Lu Chengfeng realized that there is a big difference between plants and animals, and zoology will also be affected by the weather, but it is far less than that of plants.

And as animals, there are many ways that many species can solve the problem of cooler weather, but plants, especially deciduous plants like ginkgo biloba, can only shed their own leaves to store excess energy in the branches.

Although there are many demon races in this world, it is very demanding for plants to cultivate into demons, because plants cannot find a place with abundant spiritual energy to practice like animals. Moreover, there are many restrictions and conditions for plant cultivation, so most of the demon clans in this world are animals, and it is extremely rare for plants to become demons.

Moreover, since Lu Chengfeng entered this Chengnan Courtyard, he had noticed the existence of some heaven and earth aura, and it was much stronger than other places, but it should not be enough to support the cultivation of the ginkgo tree in front of him, right?

"Senior, think about it carefully, who is the old man you are talking about?"

Since Lu Chengfeng stepped into this courtyard in the south of the city, he suddenly found that there were a lot of doubts pouring into his mind.

He hadn't solved many of his previous doubts, but now there were many more doubts, which made him feel that the world was full of doubts, and there would never be a day when they would be solved.

But he also knew in his heart that as more and more doubts surfaced in his mind, he was one step closer to the truth.

Although he saw with his own eyes that his mother was at the hands of others, and now he has been attacked and assassinated again and again, which makes him feel that there is more than one person standing behind him, and it is likely to be a gang or a network of interests.

He had a hunch that there seemed to be a very large conspiracy behind it, and that what he was now exposed to was only the tip of the iceberg.

In this huge conspiracy, even a great cultivator as strong as the Foundation Building Realm is likely to be just a pawn in the chess game.

After listening to Lu Chengfeng's words, the ginkgo tree demon not only failed to answer Lu Chengfeng's question, but kept shaking, as if he felt great pain.

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh, it seems that this Chengnan Courtyard has a past that makes the Dryad feel unbearable.

At the same time, he felt pity and compassion for the Dryad, who was known only to be in pain, and to wail when they were in pain.

But in fact, plants also feel pain, when their leaves are pulled off, when their branches are cut off, they will also emit a sound wave to express the pain they feel, but this sound wave, many animals are often not aware of this sound wave.
