Several elders of Taohuayuan Presbyterian Church looked at each other.
The leader of the banyan tree spirit elder wrinkled the bark of the tree, thought for a while and said: "If you say so, there really is a traveling scholar here."
Scholar?
The keyword was triggered directly, and Li Rui became excited: "If I guessed correctly, not long after he arrived, something happened in the three places of Wuguang Cave!"
"hiss"
The banyan tree spirit glanced at the other elders again, "It is true that the incident happened after he came, but there were several months in between."
"How many months?"
Li Rui asked, "When did he come?"
"a year ago."
Li Rui frowned and thought: I don't know what time it is now or what time it was a year ago.
He Yang continued to be confused: What? What a year ago? What scholar? How did he know?
Li Rui glanced at the countdown. There were still more than six hours left, plenty of time to search for the last clue.
He clasped his fists, completely forgetting that he was pretending to be a Taoist priest, and asked, "Elder, please explain what happened at that time."
The banyan tree spirit did not refuse, but first asked someone to notify the vine spirit guards to check the situation in Wuguang Cave and other places, and then began to tell.
a year ago.
Teng Yao, the guard guarding the gate, saw a man coming up the mountain path. He looked like a scholar, was elegant, and seemed to be a good person.
"Sir, this is our clan's holy land. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. If you want to buy mountain products, you need to go to the market at the foot of the mountain."
The scholar bowed and said harmoniously: "My surname is Zuo. I am studying in Jingyang Academy. Now I am traveling around the world under the order of my master. I just came here. I am intruding because I didn't know that this is a forbidden area for nobles. Please forgive me." "
Tengyao is a little vine spirit who is not very experienced in the world. Seeing the other party's politeness, he quickly returned the courtesy: "Sir, you are serious, it is because we did not entertain you well. However, my clan is a forest spirit. The place where we live cannot allow outsiders to stay for a long time, so generally No outsiders are accepted.”
The scholar nodded to express his understanding, and then said: "However, Xiaosheng went up to the mountain this time not to visit the mountains and rivers. He saw the spiritual energy in the mountain was disturbed and was worried about something strange in the precious land, so he came here to inquire."
Hearing this, Teng Yao was deeply moved.
What a good guy he is.
"What you said is absolutely true."
Xiao Lin Jing scratched his green head and said, "The spiritual energy here is getting more and more mixed."
The scholar added: "When I was in the academy, my master taught me the method of looking at the spirit energy, so I could see the disturbance of the spiritual energy. If this situation is not intervened in time, it may lead to a catastrophe."
Originally, the Captain Teng Jing and the seniors next to him just looked on with cold eyes, but after hearing this, they became a little uneasy and stepped forward to ask, "Sir, please give me some advice."
The scholar did not hide his secrets, so he found a stone nearby and sat down and said: "The elves are all formed from grass, trees, earth, rocks, mountains and rivers influenced by the aura of heaven and earth, and they are extremely dependent on aura."
"There is often a clan leader who wakes up first, and then drives the surrounding clans to multiply. Therefore, after the elves are born, they often never move and only stay in the original place."
Several vine spirits nodded repeatedly. There was nothing wrong with what he said, and it sounded nice, so they naturally agreed with it.
The scholar smiled slightly and continued: "But as a result, a problem arises, that is, once the spiritual energy goes wrong, the entire clan will be affected."
"In the beginning, it may be that the elders of a clan have abnormal behavior. Then, the creatures in the clan are affected, their life span is reduced, and various disasters follow."
"Yes, yes, sir, you are really good at predicting things!"
The vine spirit guards were already surrounding him like primary school students.
But the scholar looked serious: "This is not over yet. If things go on like this, the situation will get worse and worse. The elders of the clan will be the first to weaken, and this will be fed back to the mountains and rivers, influencing each other, and one will disappear and the other will disappear."
"As time goes by, even the elf elders may fall into a deep sleep until they finally die! And if the ethnic group loses the mainstay of their spiritual energy, they may not be able to escape the disaster of annihilation."
The vine spirits were already frightened.
"Please help, sir!"
The scholar looked troubled: "This matter is not easy. You need to go into Guibao to check it out before you know what to do."
This time it was the vine spirits' turn to hesitate.
Although they have been severely punished by PUA, outsiders cannot easily enter.
The scholar took out a jade token from his body and said, "This is the waist badge of the academy. It can prove your identity. If you are worried, you can check it out."
Jingyang Academy is also a famous family in the world. Ordinary people dare not pretend to be, but it is hard to say that for unusual people.
When the rattan spirits took the things, they felt that the jade medal was not cold at all, but even had a sense of warmth. They knew it was not an extraordinary object. The two characters "Jingyang" engraved on it were flowing with brilliance, which further deepened its credibility.
In fact, this brand is genuine, but Lin Jing does not have much contact with the human race, and the information is not available. It is not clear that a few months ago, a murder occurred in the Central Plains, and a group of traveling disciples from Jingyang Academy were killed. Find out who did it.
Captain Teng Jing thought to himself that this man was very knowledgeable and had a jade tablet to prove it, so he invited him into the mountain gate and took him to see the tree spirit elder.
Hearing this, Li Rui was furious.
Oh shit! Isn’t this a complete liar! The routines are the same.
First, say that you have suffered a bloody disaster, and the impact is extremely large and serious. It makes people panic and ask for help quickly, and then act like it is difficult to solve, and then make a request.
Humans are so despicable! so bad!
Then he remembered that he also entered the mountain gate with a false identity.
"."
"What happened to the elders? What did he do after entering the Holy Land?"
The banyan spirit said hesitantly: "He helped the residents in the Holy Land and won our trust. Then the Elder Council allowed him to try to solve the problem of spiritual energy disturbance."
"."
Li Rui was speechless again.
Doesn’t this still sound the same as my routine?
"Has he been to Wuguang Cave, Shenhan Pond or Huanghua Gorge?" he asked again.
The banyan tree spirit looked at the tree spirit elder at the mountain gate. The latter said: "That gentleman almost traveled all over the Holy Land, but he didn't stay for long. It seemed that it was nothing. We didn't have any hope at all, so we didn't take it to heart. .Eh? When did he leave? I don’t remember.”
Li Rui already had an eyebrow. He asked, "Elder, is that scholar white, with pink eyes, a narrow nose, and thin lips, but he looks kind and elegant?"
"Well, I guess so. I'm old and have a bad memory."
"Forget it, let's talk about this later. Was that guy wandering around alone at that time?"
"Someone leads the way."
"who?"
"Teng Yao is the young vine spirit that the Taoist priest exorcised before."
Li Rui raised his eyebrows.
There is a vine spirit following the whole process, so why is there still a chance to set up those traps that contain evil spirits?
unless
"No, Fujiya is the mole! Find him quickly!"
"Are you awake?"
Captain Teng Jing was taking care of his injured brother in a wooden house. After a night, the other man finally woke up.
"How do you feel? Don't move. You are possessed by an evil spirit. It's best to lie down and rest for a few days."
However, Fujiya didn't listen to the advice at all. He got off the stone platform where he was resting and stood in the room.
At this time, the captain felt something was wrong. This guy didn't speak from the beginning to the end, which looked weird.
It stepped forward, wanting to check on Teng Yao's condition, but suddenly stopped.
In the middle of its body, at the location of the crystal core where the spiritual energy was bred, a blood-red rattan claw pierced deeply into it and penetrated from its back.
"Ouch——"
A roar that did not belong to the forest elf came from the wooden house.
Thank you Mason for another generous reward, thank you Brother Sen.
