Chapter 0980 White Tree

The words on the copper gourd flashed so fast that they could not be seen clearly with the naked eye. Zeng Fu wanted to get closer, but was stopped by Xin Youxun, "Let's go check on the pregnant woman first. The gourd will flash words when it encounters a spell attack. There will be opportunities in the future.

Xin Youxun dares to take risks, and knows when to be cautious.

There is an underground secret room in the dilapidated house, which is divided into small rooms. In one of the rooms, the two saw the dead pregnant woman. She had just died not long ago. The wound was on her forehead and the blood had not yet coagulated.

Zeng Fu gritted his teeth in hatred, "Chen Guanhuo is really lucky. It turns out that he is not only cruel, but also a despicable villain."

Xin Youxun smiled. She has always been very confident in judging people. From the moment Chen Guanhuo suddenly killed his companion, she guessed that he had ulterior motives, "I was still too careless and failed to save her. Where is the child? ”

The pregnant woman’s belly was no longer bulging, but there were small quilts and clothes around her, which clearly indicated that there had been a child here.

Zeng Fu ran through more than a dozen small houses, but found no trace of the child. She stuck to the wall and listened carefully, and finally found a clue. There was a faint breathing sound behind a wall that looked flawless.

Xin Youxun did not dare to use magic, and both of them were weak and powerless. Finally, Zeng Fu came up with a solution. She brought in the Qilin broom outside, used its horn to gently scratch the wall, and finally saw the baby.

The baby was born a few days ago. I don’t know if he was hit by a spell or just had a full stomach. He was sleeping soundly on a small blanket, with his two small fists clenched tightly in front of his chest.

Zeng Fu gently took the baby out, stared at it for a while, and whispered, “It’s a boy.” When she raised her head, her eyes were tearful, “It’s really strange, why do I want to cry when I look at him.”

Xin Youxun also felt a strange emotion surging in her heart, and even wanted to take the baby from Zeng Fu’s arms, but she held back, “Send him to town, leave some money, and someone will be willing to take care of him.” "

The broom also came over to watch, but there was no maternal instinct. It stretched out its tongue to taste it, but was pushed away by Zeng Fu without any hesitation.

When they came to the ground, Zeng Fu said, "Do you think he was born with Tao roots?"

"I don't know what Zuo Liuying looked like when he was born?"

"That was more than four hundred years ago. I heard that he was practicing soon after he was born, but he was a disciple of Taoism and was taught by his parents. It was nothing special. I think this little guy... has Tao roots." Zeng Fu said affirmatively.

Xin Youxun smiled, "I understand what you mean. I also want to keep him, but how to feed him? There must be milk or something, and I have to go nearby to ask if his family is still there. "

"There is always a way. Go see your Qilin. It just saved your life. "

Just for a short while, Xin Youxun was reluctant to leave the baby. He took a deep look at it before turning around and running towards Qilin.

Qilin had already stood up. The talisman armor on its chest blocked most of the attack for it. It only had some skin injuries. Xin Youxun didn't know how to heal the wound, but he brought a lot of pills and talismans. He used all that could be used. Qilin had to give in step by step and nodded continuously, indicating that it was okay.

Xin Youxun walked back with Qilin and stared at the copper gourd for a while. The words on it had disappeared. "Isn't the Demon Cave among the nine great treasures just a gourd?"

"What? It seems so. I haven't seen it. The copper gourd is a common magic weapon in the Taoist tradition... How could the Demon Cave fall to the ground inexplicably? If such a thing really happened, the entire Taoist tradition would be shocked, and at least all the Taoist priests of Xingshan would be mobilized. "

Xin Youxun also thought it was impossible. She found a skirt that she didn't need for the time being from her bag, wrapped it around the copper gourd and picked it up. She wanted to wipe it clean, but it was spotless.

"Let's go. We have to find a place. The little guy has to eat as soon as he wakes up." Zeng Fu said.

The two walked out with Qilin, and both of them had feelings for the baby.

If they had waited a little longer, they would have seen another miracle, but no one wanted to stay in a dilapidated manor with corpses everywhere. Xin Youxun and Zeng Fu missed the miracle and escaped a disaster.

When the two disappeared completely and there was silence all around, the only bloodstain left by Chen Guanhuo began to surge upwards, as if something was about to come out from the ground.

A small sapling broke out of the ground and slowly grew taller under the setting sun. The bloodstains in the surrounding soil gradually disappeared. The tree was extremely strange. It did not scatter leaves, bloom, or bear fruit. It was just a main trunk with seven or eight branches. It was snow-white all over. It looked like a jade carving, not a real one. The right tree.

The white tree grew to nine feet high, and suddenly burst. A ball of white light jumped out from it, and only half of the stump was left standing.

The white light flew around the yard, first drilled into the underground secret room where the pregnant woman died, and quickly came out, and flew over the bodies of the four monks, staying a little longer, shaking violently, and then flew for a while, and finally landed. The white light turned into a woman in a white dress.

Shouque, the successor of Nianxin, was resurrected, but her appearance was much older. Now she looks at least fifty years old, with wrinkles on her face, and the light on her body quickly faded, no different from ordinary people, but she still stood straight, completely different from ordinary old women.

"If this is a dream, why did I become so ugly, and there are still souls to absorb? If this is reality... Impossible, only the illusion spell can save me, no one can break the demon cave, no one can. This is a strange dream, I just want more and better souls, they must be Taoist souls, this is my dream, I should have everything I want."

Shou Que slowly inhaled and smelled, the real air made her whole body tremble slightly, but she still refused to believe that this was the real world, and she only wanted to swallow the Taoist priest's soul.

She could smell the almost perfect living soul not far away, like bloody raw meat attracting lions and tigers.

The living soul is in the remaining half of the white tree.

"I seem to have remembered something." Shou Que walked towards Bai Shu and raised his hand to tap lightly on his forehead, "My soul, my memory... someone stole my soul, ah, why do I have such a dream?" ? The missing soul must be replaced, and this soul must be very good. "

Half of the tree stump exploded for the second time, and this time it completely disappeared. After the smoke dissipated, a man in tattered clothes was lying on the ground.

"Mu Xingqiu." Shou Que stopped and blurted out a name, "I actually recognize him, but I can't remember how I met him... Weird dream, really weird dream, I have to be careful, maybe it's the Devil's Cave. I attack. Be careful, but I want to eat his soul first. It’s a perfect soul. This is what dreams should have.”

Shou Que said to himself in the "dream", looking away from the body on the ground and staring at a point of void seven feet high, "Your soul has not yet merged with the body. Yes, it should be like this. This is my dream. Everything should be as I wish..."

Shou Que once again turned into a ball of white light, and rushed to the location of Mu Xingqiu's soul very quickly. After shaking violently for a while, he returned to the original place and turned into a human form. His brows were furrowed, as if he had eaten too carelessly and got a fish bone stuck in his throat. , but his appearance slowly changed from old to young.

"Don't be dissatisfied, soul, in my dream, your struggle only adds to the joy of swallowing." Shou Que made different techniques with both hands, pointed his right hand to his forehead, and pressed his left hand on his chin, trying to "digest" The perfect soul that was just swallowed.

She raised her head and found that the "dream" was getting weirder and weirder, and a group of inexplicable mortals actually appeared.

Seventy or eighty mortals stood at the gate of the manor, including an old man holding a pickaxe, an old woman holding a pole in both hands, and a woman holding a rolling pin in one hand, but there were no young men.

"Why did you show up?" Shou Qi was not only puzzled, but also very angry. Her dreams could be weird and unexpected, but fragile mortals should never appear. They were as unappetizing as bugs in dishes. .

"Disappear, disappear all, don't appear in my dream!" Shou Que waved her hand to drive them away. If all her strength had not been used to deal with the newly swallowed souls, she would have wiped out these mortals with one move.

These people came to avenge the pregnant woman, but when they saw the monk's body lying on the spot and a madman in white standing in the yard, they were a little scared.

"Which village does this crazy old woman come from? I haven't seen her before." An old man asked doubtfully, with his trouser legs and cuffs rolled up, holding a yellowed paper charm in each hand, holding the same paper as him There were still a few people in Fu, who were originally used to deal with rogue cultivators. Unexpectedly, four of them were dead, and one was missing.

They didn't know how strong the rogue cultivators were, and they just came to ask for an explanation out of anger.

"She must be the crazy lady who herds Pig Lao Liu in Yang Village, Houshan. I heard that she has been crazy for several years and claims that she is an ancient god descending to earth."

"No, I have seen that crazy woman. She is shorter than this one. She wears gaudy clothes, not so white."

"Hey, this is not an old woman. She seems... seems to have become younger. Whose stupid daughter-in-law is this? Was she kidnapped here?"

"It's possible, take it back to town and ask the old Zhang's daughter-in-law."

The mortals were talking a lot, and the leading old man put away the paper talisman - this thing is very expensive and cannot be used casually - walked towards the crazy woman and said with concern: "Do you remember your name? What is your husband's surname? Where do you live? How long have you been pregnant? "

Shou Que's white cheeks began to turn red, not because of shyness, but because she was about to lose control of the soul she had swallowed. The soul's resistance became stronger and stronger, making her more and more dissatisfied with the entire dream.

Shou Que suddenly jumped up, rose to a height of more than ten feet, and fell straight to the ground, frightening many mortals at the gate into stunned silence. The old man who came over even sat down and shouted "Oh my God".

Shou Que turned back into an old woman. She felt angry, but more of a fear. This was a nightmare, not a dream that she could do as she pleased.

She escaped, turned into a ball of white light, and flew away into the distance aimlessly, not wanting to stop for a moment.

Mortals didn't know where the danger lay. They were just frightened by the mad woman's spell. It took them a while to come back to their senses and slowly walk towards the man who fell on the ground.

"Is this one of the rogue cultivators who kidnapped pregnant women?"

"It doesn't look like that. His clothes are in such tatters. He must have been arrested."

"Moved, look, he moved, he's not dead yet!"

Mu Xingqiu opened his eyes, sat up slowly, looked at a group of strangers blankly, and asked, "Who am I?"
