Chapter 1053 Treeman Vows Not to Be a Slave
"What's wrong with me?" Li Cha looked at the old Lich and asked a little strangely.
"What are you talking about!" the old Lich said angrily, "Do you know how much trouble that stupid tree suddenly rebelled when you left without saying hello?"
"Is it a big trouble?" Li Cha wondered, "Didn't Pandora say before that Ximu was easily resolved? Could it be...she didn't explain it clearly, could it be that you were injured?"
"Of course I..." The old Lich was about to announce the truth loudly, when he suddenly saw Pandora's contemptuous glance, and changed his tone forcefully, "Of course I... am not injured, even if I did, it was a very slight injury. However, I was very angry and finished because you didn't say hello to me, and I think you didn't respect me."
"Okay, okay, next time there is a similar situation, I will definitely say hello to you." Li Cha said helplessly.
"Hmph, it's best not to have a next time." The old Lich curled his lips.
Li Cha shrugged, thought for a while and asked, "By the way, where is the heart of the tree left by Ximu?"
"With that little girl of yours, don't ask me." The old Lich said.
After listening to Li Cha's words, he turned to look at Pandora.
Pandora said very clearly: "Wait for a while, I'll take it out for you."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and ran back to his study, and ran back after a while. In his hand was a metal container like an iron pot, covered with a heavy stone slab.
Li Cha glanced at Pandora with a complicated expression, and asked with some suspicion: "You won't just stew the tin wood, will you?"
In his opinion, if Ximu really made Pandora angry, Pandora might really make Ximu a dish.
However, Pandora's answer made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"No, how could I stew him, I just locked him in."
"Why are you locked in here?"
"Because he often wants to run away." Pandora pouted, and said with some dissatisfaction, "In short, you will know it when you look at it." After speaking, she lifted the stone slab on the metal container.
"boom!"
The stone slab hit the ground heavily,
There was a muffled sound, and inside the pot... well, the tin wood in the metal container appeared in the field of vision.
At this time, Ximu maintained the state of the tree heart, like a huge emerald green gemstone, with many milky white roots growing from the upper and lower ends of the gemstone, swinging wildly like tentacles, trying to escape the container.
"Look, that's it." Pandora pointed to the heart of the tinwood tree, stretched out her hand a little angrily, grabbed a root of the tinwood and pulled it hard.
"Snapped!"
There was a crisp sound, and the roots broke.
Being stimulated by this, Ximu seemed to be in pain, all the remaining roots twitched, and the whole tree heart lay upright in the metal container, motionless, like an octopus that had landed on the shore and died of thirst. After a few seconds, the roots started to move again, but compared with before, the strength was obviously weakened.
"If it wasn't for me pulling it like this every once in a while, this guy would have smashed the little bell's rice bowl." Pandora complained in a low voice.
Li Cha was slightly taken aback when he heard this: Little Bell's rice bowl? Little Bell, he knew, was the golden-haired rhubarb dog that Old Lich originally raised, and now it was owned by Pandora. But what does the rice bowl of the little bell mean? It doesn't mean that the tin-wood metal container is for golden retriever and rhubarb dogs to eat...
"Wow woof!"
A dog barking sounded, and the golden retriever and rhubarb dog ran over quickly.
Li Cha reached out and grabbed the heart of the tinwood tree from the basin. The next moment, he saw Pandora throw the metal basin to the golden retriever dog, and the other party excitedly took it away.
Well, it's really a dog bowl for golden retriever and rhubarb dogs... The corner of Li Cha's mouth twitched uncontrollably, he shook his head lightly, and looked at the tin wood in his hand.
At this time, Ximu didn't know if he had sensed the changes in the outside world, but he became extremely quiet.
Li Cha glanced at the other party, thought for a while, and took out a half-meter-square water tank from the space iron ring, poured nutrient solution into it, placed the floating board, and put the tree heart on it.
The roots on the tree core sensed the presence of the nutrient solution, and plunged towards the bottom of the floating board to quickly absorb the nutrient solution.
"Gudong Gudong!"
The sound of humans drinking water sounded, and the height of the nutrient solution in the tank dropped by half in an instant.
At this time, branches began to grow from the top of the tree center, intertwined with each other, and grew to a height of about ten centimeters.
"Gudong Gudong!"
As the branches at the top of the tree core continue to grow, the liquid level of the nutrient solution in the tank continues to drop. After a while, there is only a shallow layer of the nutrient solution left. As the tinwood roots absorb it vigorously, it makes a "squeak" dry sound .
The branches of tinwood began to swing, as if urging to replenish the nutrient solution.
Li Cha didn't cooperate, glanced at Ximu, and said: "Okay, that's all. Whether we want to continue to supply you with it or not, we need to see the results of our next communication."
"Squeak, squeak!"
Hearing Li Cha's words, Ximu reacted. The branches that had grown to a height of seventeen or eighteen centimeters weaved together to form a miniature human face. His eyes turned to look at Li Cha.
One person and one tree look at each other.
You look at me, I look at you, without saying a word to each other, there is silence all around, and the air gradually freezes.
In the end, it was Li Cha who spoke first, broke the deadlock, and said to Ximu with a chuckle, "Aren't you going to say something?"
"What are you talking about? What can I say?!" Ximu was obviously emotional, as if he had realized that he would not end well, and was very uncooperative.
Li Cha looked at Ximu, raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't you want to justify yourself and explain why you want to escape here? If I remember correctly, you were brought here by me, and the contract should be concluded in March , now it is September, and almost half a year has passed—our contract is only one year in total, and half of it has passed, if you bear with it, you can leave safely, why take risks halfway? This is illogical. "
"Huh." Ximu made a nasal sound and said, "This has nothing to do with logic, it's my pride that made me do this."
"I am a higher life and a long-lived species. It is a great shame to be defeated and captured by you. How can I really be willing to serve you? Just like one day, you were bitten by a dog. Are you willing to let me die?" A dog enslaved?"
Ximu's voice grew louder.
"When I reached the contract with you, I didn't really want to fulfill it at all. It was just a means to numb you and gain your trust in exchange for a chance for me to restore my strength. Once I succeed in restoring my strength and find the right time, even if it is There is only one day before the contract expires, and I will also forcibly escape from your place.
Do you understand, kid, this has nothing to do with any logic, it's all because of my identity, my heart, and my pride that I can't bear to stay with you for a second longer. I am the great wise man of the tree, the source of the forest, the immortal guardian, I am Yuktrashir Alhaydn Tinmu, I... will not be a slave! "
