Chapter 123: Dead Vines and Old Trees
"I'm Zhao Wucai, you forgot me?" His voice was not so excited, but I heard his voice.
I sighed and asked, "What's the matter?"
"A yang spirit was found outside the city, it has been intercepted, and it is recruiting rangers, three are missing one, is Senior Brother Qin interested?" Zhao Wucai said with some excitement.
"Yang Jing, outside the city?" I asked, frowning.
Not long after this Zhao Shuixian went out, she is also a yang essence, could it be her?
"Yes, the reward for the yang essence is five million, a big fish, our brothers have discussed it, if you make a move, three million will be given to you. Zhao Wucai said.
"Okay, where?" I agreed.
"We're nearby, stop by and pick you up. Zhao Wucai said.
I hung up the phone with a hum and opened the door to Zheng Kangkang's room, and this guy was sleeping in bed.
I slapped him on the pig head and said, "Kangkang, I have an urgent trip to go, stay at home and don't run around, do you hear?"
The white-haired pig looked at me, then turned around and fell asleep again.
I picked up the key, closed the door, and left the Zhixian courtyard.
On the way, I kept calling Zhao Shuixian, but she didn't answer.
It's too coincidental in terms of timing, it's very likely to be Zhao Shuixian, if it's really her, I have to save her.
When they came to the outside of the lake dam, Zhao Wucai and their cars just arrived, pulled the door and got into the car.
There were two people in the car, and in addition to Zhao Wucai, there was also a driver.
I hurriedly asked, "Do you have any information about that yang essence?"
"No, Xiao Si has already entangled her, the scar will open quickly, I'm afraid Xiao Si won't last long. Zhao Wucai said.
Scar nodded and said, "Martial artist, this senior brother is very young, is he as powerful as you said?"
Zhao Wucai smiled and said: "Wait a minute, you'll know, by the way, Senior Brother Qin, let me introduce you, this is Scar, Bigu Xiuwei, who used to be an outer disciple of Xuanmen, a regular army." ”
Bigu cultivation corresponds to powerful ghosts, spirit demons, and hair stiffness, and there is still one level to deal with yang essence.
"Hello, Scar. I said hello, took out my mobile phone and looked at it, but Zhao Shuixian still didn't reply to the message.
"Hehe, senior brother is good, senior brother is so powerful at a young age, could it be that he is asking the outer disciples of the Heavenly Palace?" Scar asked.
I shook my head and said, "No, I don't have a sect." ”
"Oh, there is no sect, I suggest that the senior brother go to participate in the enrollment assessment of the Xuanmen or the Heavenly Palace, once he can enter the inner gate, the future is limitless. Scar said.
"Admissions assessment?"
"Yes, Senior Brother, don't you know? All the disciples or casual cultivators from the folk sect can go to participate in the assessment of the Xuanmen and the Wentian Palace, so as to join the Xuanmen or the Wentian Palace. Scar introduced.
I hummed and said, "I really don't know this, where is the assessment location?"
"The assessment location of the Xuanmen is in Wan'an Temple outside the city, and the assessment location of the Wentian Palace is on the top floor of the Yellow Crane Tower, if you can get the disciple tokens of these two sects, it will be awesome. Scar said excitedly.
I sighed, worried about Zhao Shuixian, and urged Scar to hurry up.
More than ten minutes later, Zhao Wucai's mobile phone suddenly rang, he looked at his phone, frowned and said, "The fourth sent me a message." ”
"What's the content?" Scar asked.
"Run!"
"Run?" I frowned and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"No, although the fourth child can't fight, he will specialize in the illusion of the elf clan, and it should be no problem to trap a yang essence. Zhao Wucai explained.
He stared at the word 'death' and said, "Why don't we go?"
"What are you afraid of, look at the situation and then say, if it doesn't work, we will run or shake people. Scar said, glancing at me in the rearview mirror.
I also hummed and said, "Let's go and see first." ”
More than ten minutes passed, and the car left the city, and instead of getting on the highway, it turned into a country road.
Passed through a village and into the mountains behind.
"There's no road, you need to go up, it's at the top of the mountain. "Scar drove more than ten kilometers and parked the car on the side of the road.
I was the first to pull the car door and rush straight up the hill.
The altitude of this mountain is not high, but it is very large, and when the pupils are opened, on the top of the mountain, there is really essence.
"Senior Brother Qin, wait for us. "Zhao Wucai chased after him desperately, but he was thrown farther and farther away by me.
Scar was faster than him, but I was also left behind.
Naturally, I won't go up the mountain with them, and if it's really Zhao Shuixian, I'll have to let her go.
I kept accelerating, and while they were still halfway up the mountain, I was already at the top of the mountain.
To my surprise, the top of the mountain was not full of trees like ordinary mountains, and the top of this mountain had an acre or two of wasteland.
In fact, it can't be said to be completely barren, because it is basically a stone mill, and there are many weeds in the middle of the stone mill, and the most conspicuous thing is a large dead tree.
The branches of the dead tree were all dry, the bark was colorless, and the leaves were gone.
The trunk of the dead tree has to be hugged by at least four people, the branches are sparse and pulled, the shape is very weird, and there are many dead vines wrapped around those branches.
A few black crows perched on the branches, singing the annoying 'funeral song'.
I frowned and began to be cautious, for there was a shriveled corpse that had been pierced through the chest by a branch and hung on one of the branches.
The corpse seemed to have been sucked dry, but I'm sure it wasn't a very old cadaver because there was blood dripping from his feet.
If you guess correctly, this person should be the fourth child.
The pupil opened again, and my heart fluttered, and sure enough, this tree was not an ordinary tree, but a spirit.
The essence around this number is rich, and it is obvious that it is not just a yang spirit, at least a lich.
I searched the surroundings and didn't see Zhao Shuixian.
Just as I was wondering, a crack opened in the trunk of the tree, and a figure rushed out of the trunk.
When I saw her, I pulled out my dagger and rushed straight over.
This person was none other than Zhao Shuixian, she was covered in injuries at this time, her hair was scattered, and a wooden scepter in her hand had been broken for a short time.
As soon as she rushed out, she was entangled in the dry but extremely flexible branches, and Zhao Shuixian's body also extended several roots.
Although I don't know what the situation is, I can see that this tree spirit is obviously standing on the opposite side of Zhao Shuixian.
The elves actually fought with the elves, which made me a little puzzled.
"Snort. With a dagger, I cut open a branch wrapped around Zhao Shuixian's neck, grabbed Zhao Shuixian's arm, and retreated four or five meters sharply.
Several branches attacked me directly, and I slashed left and right, but I still couldn't stop the endless branches, so I could only keep retreating.
"Why are you here?" Zhao Shuixian scepter waved violently, but it was entangled by several branches and was directly snatched away.
"Of course I'm here to save you, you go quickly!" I said, and shook her hard, directly seven or eight meters away, out of the attack range of the branches.
The wind was blowing under my feet, and I kept retreating, but I was still caught in my left foot by a branch, and I fell heavily to the ground.
Just as I was about to be dragged away by the branch, a silver light flashed, it was a dagger shot by Zhao Shuixian, cutting off the branch.
I quickly got up and came to Zhao Shuixian's side.
"You go. I frowned and stared at the dryad, this battle is difficult to fight.
Zhao Shuixian said: "Okay, you also run away, this is the traitor 'withered blade' of our elven clan, the strength of the witch spirit in the late stage, you are not his opponent." ”
"Is this still the late stage of the witch elves?" I said with some disbelief.
Zhao Shuixian explained: "It's because I just sucked the essence blood of the human being, and there is a short period of sperm transformation, and the strength has been greatly reduced, in short, you should leave quickly, I have to tell the valley master this news quickly." ”
After Zhao Shuixian finished speaking, all the roots of the tree behind him were rooted in the soil, and then his body slowly turned into a daffodil the size of a person, which shrank to the size of a rose in the blink of an eye, and also burrowed into the soil.
"He also said that he would not escape. I complained with disdain, but I saw Zhao Shuixian's elven qi disappearing rapidly towards the west.
This speed is estimated to be about the same as a high-speed train running at full speed.
It seems that it is indeed not a retreat, but just a way for the elves to hurry.
"Hehe, two more, it looks like I can eat four dishes today. There was an old and hoarse mother-in-law's voice from the side of the dead tree.
Her branches were waving, much faster than before, and it looked like a swarm of demons were dancing.
Obviously, his emanation stage has been completed, and Xiao Si's body has also fallen to the ground, almost leaving the skeleton.
I turned my head to look at Zhao Wucai and Scar, who had just gone up the mountain, and the two of them were stunned when they saw the dead tree.
"Well, buy a batch of scars, Lao Tzu was killed by you today, this is obviously not a yang demon. Zhao Wucai muttered to himself.
