The time went back to a few minutes ago, on the mountain road not far from Wu Yanqing Winery.
"That looks like a monster, right? Don't you go and have a look?"
Hiding in his own private cave, Xiao Qing first glanced at the direction of the wine shop, and then asked Pei Wende with curiosity.
"I won't watch anymore. There's nothing to see anyway."
Walking on the mountain road with a straight eye, Pei Wende seemed to have completely missed Xiaoqing's malice and answered lightly.
"Do you know the identity of that monster?"
Seeing this situation, Xiaoqing, who originally just wanted to test it out, really became curious.
It seemed that Pei Wende had completely understood the origin of the monster, that's why he acted so relaxed.
"Actually, you've met him before."
As soon as Pei Wende said this, Xiaoqing immediately raised his eyebrows and began to recall whether he had seen monsters with similar characteristics.
However, no matter how Xiaoqing recalled it, he could never find any trace of this monster in his memory.
"Have I seen him? Why don't I remember him at all?"
The frowning Xiao Qing didn't think Pei Wende was lying to her, so she began to wonder if there was something wrong with her memory.
His appearance and body shape are all that matters, but Xiao Qing is a great demon with extremely strong sense of demonic aura.
Ordinary monsters can change their appearance through transformation, but the monster energy that is the foundation of their practice cannot be easily changed no matter what.
"Has he rebuilt it?"
Xiaoqing thought about it, and after ruling out the possibility that the other party could change into different creatures like herself, she came to such a conclusion.
"You were half right."
The corners of his mouth curved slightly, and Pei Wende didn't tell the truth until this moment.
"Do you still remember the witch we were chasing for using the 'life money'?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qing immediately nodded.
Because Xiao Qing can be said to be very impressed by the Miao witch who trained her former lover into a flying corpse ghost.
That was the first ghost and god that he and Pei Wende encountered, and it was also one of the best among the many evil spirits that the two of them killed along the way.
If it weren't for the flying corpse ghost and god who wanted death and salvation after the death of the Miao witch, I'm afraid it's still unclear who will win in the end.
"The monster just now was the old locust tree that we fought with at that time."
Shocked, surprised, suddenly...
All kinds of complex emotions merged into one, and Xiao Qing had the indescribable expression at this moment.
"Isn't that old locust tree... dead long ago?"
If the flying corpse ghosts and gods gave Xiao Qing the impression of being strong and tragic.
So the impression left on her by the old Sophora Tree Demon was that he had both sides, bullied the weak and feared the strong, and was completely unworthy of the title of "Thousand-year-old Demon".
But if you think about it carefully, in reality, it seems that only guys like the old demon of the locust tree can live peacefully for thousands of years without dying.
After all, he is as powerful and tragic as a flying corpse ghost, even if he has the tyrannical strength to crush the old locust tree demon, wouldn't he just go to the underworld obediently?
Being profound and powerful is only the foundation and guarantee for a long life.
But what really allows a practitioner to live for thousands of years is the prudent behavior of the old demon of the locust tree.
"The old demon of the locust tree is dead, but it can also be said that he is not dead..."
Xiao Qing hated Pei Wende playing riddles with him, so he immediately took out the green snake sword from his waist and slapped the other person on the back of the head.
"ah!"
Caught off guard, Pei Wende, who had originally planned to sell something off, immediately screamed.
"Don't follow your senior brother's example, just say what you have to say!"
His eyes were slightly narrowed with a cold light, and Pei Wende had no doubt that if he said another word, Xiaoqing would give him another blow without hesitation.
"I said, I said that's it..."
"I don't know when you started becoming so violent."
Rubbing the back of his head helplessly, Pei Wende continued to explain sensibly, not even daring to let Xiao Qing hear his vague murmurs.
"Although the old locust tree demon has a wretched character, he is an antique who has truly lived from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the present."
"There are probably more ways to save our lives than the spells we are good at. Among them, the 'Black Lotus' we have seen before is the most mysterious..."
Ever since he perfected the six magical powers of Buddhism, there are few secrets in the world that can be hidden from Pei Wende.
Therefore, even if Pei Wende did not deliberately collect relevant intelligence and information, he still found out the details of the old Sophora Tree Demon.
"That 'Black Lotus' comes from Fengdu Ghost City. It is the underworld treasure used by King Chakravartin to communicate Yin and Yang!"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
When Pei Wende faced off against the flying corpse ghosts and gods.
Although the old demon of the locust tree did not play a big role, he participated in the battle with his body and soul manifested at the same time.
Needless to say, the identity of the old locust tree demon is the "locust tree forest" that has lived for thousands of years, is so big that a single tree can form a forest, and its roots are as tough as fine iron.
As for the soul of the old demon in the locust tree?
It is driving a huge black lotus, using the endless power of the netherworld in the black lotus to fight against the flying corpses, ghosts and gods.
The black lotus ended up being crushed by the flying corpse ghosts and gods, and the soul of the old locust tree demon hiding in it was also shattered into countless pieces.
The soul is shattered and the body is dying...
No matter which angle you look at it, the old locust tree demon at that time was already dead.
Pei Wende thought so too before the old demon from the Sophora Tree appeared in the wine shop again.
However, after seeing the strong man transformed by the old locust tree demon, Pei Wende was shocked to realize that the thousand-year-old demon actually used the method of stealing the sky and changing the sun and resurrecting himself from death.
That black lotus is indeed a supreme treasure that can coexist with the soul.
As long as the black lotus is not broken, even if the body dies, the old demon of the locust tree can still use the power of the black lotus to seize other living beings and be reborn.
But the crux of the problem is that the old demon of the locust tree is not the real owner of the black lotus.
Or to be more precise, the old demon of the locust tree is just the temporary host of the black lotus, an incarnation conceived by the Lord of the Fengdu Ghost City, the Wheel-turning King, in order to break his own limits.
In those years when written records have been lost, the old demon of the locust tree was once given the "green silk poison" by a witch from western Hunan, and then he fell in love with her wholeheartedly.
After the witch died, the old locust tree demon went to the legendary Fengdu ghost town in order to resurrect his lover.
I hope to use the power of the legendary Ghost King to forcibly reverse the cycle of life and death and renew the marriage line between myself and the witch.
