Is this the sun rising from the west?
Wu Shu didn't even have time to change his face when he and the stele spirit were arguing with each other earlier, and Lao Teng called him "sir."
The spirit of the stele said with a calm expression, "Old man, you are quite resourceful and worldly. Tell me? What did you like about my young master? Or maybe, when my young master and I first appeared, At that time, you were so confrontational, could it be just to attract the attention of my young master?"
Talking about why he had such a big change in his attitude towards Wushu, Lao Teng sighed, "My lord, I still say the same thing. Judging from your complexion, you are not a thing in the pool. You also know how to cherish the laws of survival in this world."
As the saying goes, flattery is worth a thousand taels of gold.
Before discussing with Wu Shu, Lao Teng chose to compliment Wu Shu first.
Not to mention what the effect will be, at least in the process of speaking, it can be regarded as a further test of Wu Shu.
But Lao Teng never imagined that Wu Shu would have two great masters around him for such a rough job as flattery.
The stele spirit immediately said, "Okay, Old Vine Tree, stop talking nonsense. These words of yours can be used to deceive a little kid, but my young master will not accept this trick."
Lao Teng immediately changed his face and said, "This human master, seeing that you accepted the three rootless grasses truthfully, it is enough to show that you are a proud man with integrity. Speaking of these three rootless grasses, Lao Teng also has his own reasons."
The spirit of the stele said impatiently, "Old Vine Tree, don't you see? You still understand this principle, 'You can wear a lot of clothes but you can't wear a flattery.' If you don't speak out about your purpose, my young master will not trust you." Then we can only say goodbye."
He was repeatedly interrupted by the spirit of the stele, and the spirit of the stele pointed out the key points without any mercy.
Old Tengshu wanted to know if he could talk properly again!
Wu Shu said seriously, "If your guess is correct, you want me to help you deal with that old crow, right? The three rootless grasses you just gave them should have had their vitality taken away by that old crow. And To be able to save these three rootless grasses, you must have spent a lot of effort."
The truth of the matter is almost the same as what Wu Shu said.
Just that these words came from Wu Shu made Old Teng Shu feel embarrassed.
Although talking to smart people is a joyful thing, in front of such people, many things are transparent. Maybe he pretends to be indifferent, but it's not that he doesn't know.
Lao Teng responded, "To be honest with this human master, Lao Teng and this old crow have been fighting for thousands of years. Over these thousands of years, this old crow has strengthened itself by continuously devouring the vitality of the rootless grass in the medicine field. As the old vines age, there are not many thousand-year-old rootless grass left in the medicine field. If this continues, once the old vines are gone, all the rootless grass in the medicine field will become the food of that old crow."
Not wanting to stay here for too long, Wu Shu said bluntly, "Tell me? What do you think? If possible, as long as you can provide enough benefits, I am willing to help."
Nowadays, all the spiritual grasses in the Withered Vine Medicine Garden are ownerless. The reason why the immature rootless grasses were not picked was precisely because Wu Shu did not want to interrupt the cultivation path of future generations. In the future, there will definitely be people who are destined to enter the East Underground Palace, and some of those people will be interested in these rootless grasses.
Therefore, if Lao Teng wants Wu Shu to do something for him, he has to pay other prices.
After much hesitation, the old vine tree located in the center of the withered vine medicine garden quickly spread its surrounding branches. When a skinny old man conjoined with an old vine tree came into view, Wu Shu was stunned.
The old man said seriously, "Three thousand years ago, I should have died. Because the old vine tree has a spirit, it blended the spirit essence in its body with me, thus extending my life."
The person speaking was actually a human being. Wu Shu cupped his hands and said, "Senior, are you the guardian of this medicine field?"
The old man shook his head hard and sighed, "I am just a miserable person who was chosen by Lord Teng She. Without Lord Teng She's help, with my background and cultivation talent, it would be difficult for me to survive for thousands of years. .As for my name, you just need to treat me as the medicine boy in this medicine field."
Drug boy? Poor people.
Wu Shu knew the identities of those who could enter the primary battlefield of the Fire Battlefield and were selected by Soaring Snake without thinking too much.
In this way, after entering the flame battlefield, not all those who did not return to the thick earth continent died.
The skinny old man said again, "If you are exposed to some things too much, you may have strange emotions, right? In this medicine field, I do the same thing day after day, and these rootless grasses imitate what I do. Things, over time, they got used to each other, and they also developed feelings for these rootless grasses."
"The years are coming, and I also want these rootless grasses to have a home. If you promise me that I will not kill the rootless grasses that are under a thousand years old, I am willing to hand over the spiritual essence in my body. The spiritual essence. I think you all know how valuable it is."
The essence of the spirit of vegetation?
Compared with the beast core of the demon clan, the spiritual essence can not only help the destined person to improve his strength, but also help the destined person to increase his spirituality.
The stele spirit said nervously, "Ling Cui?"
Stele Spirit is very clear about the benefits of spiritual essence. Nowadays, Wu Shu's Dantian injury is still a big problem. If Wu Shu's Dantian injury can be solved with the help of spiritual power, at least Wu Shu can continue to practice.
Wu Shu still said calmly, "The spiritual essence is indeed what I want. However, the spiritual essence condensed from this old vine tree has been integrated with you, and there should not be much vitality left in it."
Without denying Wu Shu's statement, the skinny old man nodded and said, "The spiritual essence in my body only has 1,500 years of vitality left. If it is stripped from my body, my physical body will die directly. But as long as you promise me Under the conditions, I will also give you the last drop of vine essence. With the help of this drop of vine essence, your strength will definitely be greatly increased."
Vine essence?
What is this? The stele spirit has never heard of it.
After thinking about it, Wu Shu said, "I, Wu Shu, agree to your request. As for the grudge between the old crow and the Withered Vine Medicine Garden, if it dares to take action against me, I will make it regret it."
"Quack, quack, quack...? Where does a child with a yellow mouth dare to speak nonsense here?"
At this time, the old crow that had been hiding in the dark suddenly appeared. It flapped its wings and flew high, and its huge body appeared above the withered vine medicine garden.
After seeing the old crow, the stele spirit said in surprise, "This ugly crow is actually the three-eyed crow. It's very wrong. The three-eyed crow is a spirit beast. How could it appear in the Eastern Underground Palace?"
Looking at the Three-Eyed Crow as well, Wu Shu frowned.
If I remember correctly, this three-eyed crow has been fighting with the skinny old man and the old vine tree for thousands of years.
Thousands of years ago, the Three-Eyed Crow appeared in the East Underground Palace. As the guardian of the East Underground Palace, it is impossible for Soaring Snake not to know about its existence.
The three-eyed crow has not been eliminated for a long time. Could it be that there is some secret behind it?
