He initially grasped the laws of order and understood the weaknesses of the Immortal Monk.
The conversation at the dinner table was addressed both to the monk Changsheng and to Shangguandong. It seemed that the two had been working together for a long time.
Long-term companionship If Shangguandong has no idea about immortality, he doesn't believe it.
He is stimulating the seeds in Shangguan Dong's heart and arousing the desire of those around the longevity monk to eat longevity meat.
As for the Immortal Monk, after he clearly knows that his weaknesses are exposed and Li Xiaobai retreats, he will definitely take further actions. The more radical he acts, the more flaws Li Xiaobai will be able to find.
I don’t know how long it will take to really prove the lie of immortality.
After returning to the house, nothing was out of the ordinary, and no one disturbed her, except for the constant sound of clinking pots and pans, as the villagers prepared for tomorrow's sacrifice.
At night.
Li Xiaobai climbed through the window and entered the back mountain. He wanted to see the dead people, and also wanted to look for Ma Niubi and Wang Wang.
As soon as I left the house, I felt a pair of eyes staring at me. It was the same feeling as when I was in the temple, but when I looked back, there was nothing there.
The mountain behind was so ghostly that it felt like the trees were coming to life in rows, but when I turned my head and looked around, I found nothing.
An inscription was erected on the path into the mountain, with a sentence written on it.
"Order is a scale, not justice."
This is an interpretation of the law of order. From this sentence, we should be able to dig out the weak points of order, but it is not the time yet.
Each of the corpses hanged from the tree was completely unrecognizable. They were all charred and black, as if they had been burned to death, but there were traces of knife scars under the charred hard shells.
The death was miserable.
As I walked, I heard a rustling sound in my ears. If I listened carefully, it was the sound of voices.
"Master Wang, your foot poked my nostril, please move away."
"Donor Ma, let's change positions. Your head rubs against the little monk's lower body repeatedly. The little monk can't bear it."
Li Xiaobai's eyes lit up and he shouted: "My dear disciples, are they you?"
"Master!"
"Donor Li!"
"Here we are, in the trees!"
Ma Niubi heard the call and shouted immediately.
Following the sound, Li Xiaobai found Ma Niubi and Wang Wang on a small sapling. The scene that caught his eye was very strange.
There was only one small sapling on the bare land. It was really just a small sapling, no more than one meter tall. Two people, Zhuo Wang and Ma Niubi, were hung on the top in a sixty-nine position.
Ma Niubi's head was on Wang Wang's crotch, Wang Wang's toes were inserted into Ma Niubi's nostrils, and the two of them were hung up in a ball shape.
"What are you two playing at?"
Li Xiaobai was speechless, this scene was slightly funny.
"There's nothing to do. Get us down quickly. We've been trapped for most of the day. This tree is sucking the power from our bodies."
Ma Niubi said anxiously. When he got excited, he moved his body slightly, and the big toe that he finally got rid of inserted into his nostril again, making him speechless.
Li Xiaobai frowned: "Do you think I'm stupid? This sapling is only one meter tall and not as long as my legs. Why don't you two just stand up?"
"I can't stand up. The power of this tree is extraordinary. When it was first planted here, it was just an unbroken seed. It only took half a day to grow to one meter high. The young monk and the horse donor were nailed to the branches of the tree. Can’t break free.”
Monk Liaowang said that they had tried various methods, but this little sapling could not be beaten.
"Donor Li, please don't touch this tree. It's very evil. The young monk can't understand its power."
Seeing Li Xiaobai approaching, Wu Wang quickly spoke up to remind him.
"Master, my disciple knows that you will be fine. Have you found a way to save us?"
Ma Niubi asked expectantly.
"Now that we have some ideas, how many more days can you hold on?"
Li Xiaobai asked.
"In no more than ten days, or even shorter, this tree will be nourished by the power of the young monk and the horse donor. The more power in the young monk's body is absorbed, the stronger it will grow."
Liao Wang said.
"It's okay. I have studied with the master. There is only one person hanging on the other trees, but there are two hanging on our tree at the same time. This means that we can last longer than the dead in the past."
Ma Niubi said.
"Is this thing really so tricky?"
"Is it an object of visualization, or is it the power of law?"
Li Xiaobai took out his long sword and released a sword energy from a distance. The moment it struck the sapling, the sword energy was absorbed by the tree at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, a new leaf grew on the branch.
This tree, like hellfire, can consume and grow itself with all things in the world as nourishment.
"It's not like an imaginary object, it can be touched and has an entity."
"It should be a creature spawned by the power of some kind of law."
Liao Wang analyzed.
"In short, it has the ability to devour everything and strengthen itself, right? I have a bold idea."
Li Xiaobai thought for a moment, then snapped his fingers, and a jet-black flame appeared on his fingertips.
With a flick of his finger, the wisp of black flame jumped onto the branches of the sapling and began to burn.
Hellfire has the ability to devour all things and turn them into nutrients, which is similar in nature to this tree.
Both sides are devouring the other to strengthen themselves.
In other words, the hellfire can swallow back the power it has devoured, and conversely, the saplings can also do it. In this way, they can fall into an infinite loop and hinder the growth of the saplings.
Sure enough, after the wisp of hellfire attached to the sapling, no new leaves grew on the branches.
Liao Wang and Ma Niubi could also clearly feel that the flow of power in his body had slowed down by more than half.
"That's it. You won't be in danger for a short time. When I take care of that bald donkey, you can be saved."
Li Xiaobai turned and left.
He had the idea of setting fire to the mountain, but he forgot that Yuma Niubi was still here. It was not a wise move to provoke the law of order in such a big way at this moment.
Returning along the trail, when passing by the inscription, a figure appeared in front of me.
Very old, with disheveled hair and a long beard, he is the village chief Shangguan Dong.
The hoarse voice made the mountain forest even more eerie and terrifying.
"It's late at night, master, it's best not to move around."
Li Xiaobai was expressionless: "Did you violate the rules?"
Shangguandong shook his head: "No."
"Then you are talking nonsense."
Li Xiaobai rolled his eyes and suddenly asked: "You heard what I said to Monk Changsheng during the day, so you don't have any ideas?"
"I have no idea. As the head of a village, I want to contribute to the village and will not do anything detrimental to the village."
"Since you want to contribute to the village, I think it is most appropriate for you to make the rules yourself. Following other people's rules is still a bit restrictive."
Li Xiaobai meant something.
Shangguandong Gujing Wubo: "Don't dare to have evil thoughts towards the gods."
"You have also discovered that the Immortal Monk is only a mortal body and does not even have cultivation."
"Otherwise, during the banquet, he could have proposed a competition and discussion together to force me to make a mistake. You must know that once he makes a move, the probability of my making a mistake will also greatly increase."
"The reason why he is invincible is because the so-called order is helping him."
"I heard that the power of law will take the initiative to set up tests, and those who pass it will be the ones who pass it. Maybe you will also have a chance."
Li Xiaobai is good at teaching.
Shangguandong remained unfazed: "I dare not speak arbitrarily about God."
