"You still have ten breaths of time to think about it."
Cao Yi gave a deadline.
He had already been confused and got a dying tree demon, but he didn't want to lose his life in a confused way anymore, so he immediately agreed: "Taoist Master, you ask, I will definitely tell you everything I know."
"If you had this attitude, it wouldn't be so troublesome."
There was a smile on Cao Yi's face.
The tree demon almost vomited blood.
Who knew you were so calculating, who knew you had so many tricks, and who knew things were so simple.
"Um"
The smile on Cao Yi's face disappeared.
"Blame me, it's my fault"
The tree demon said gloomily with sadness in his heart.
"Forget it, Pindao won't bother with you anymore."
Cao Yi said generously.
"Thank you, Taoist priest"
The dryad thanked him against his will.
"First question, where did the zombies in Renjia Town come from?"
Cao Yi started the topic.
The tree demon hesitated for a moment and said: "If a person dies with his eyes closed and his resentment gathers in his throat, he absorbs the moon's yin energy, or in a very yin place, if the yin energy is too heavy, the zombies will not rot..."
"You know that's not what Pindao asked. If you don't tell the truth, Pindao will take back his promise."
Cao Yi interrupted.
The tree demon was silent for a long time, and then said: "If you tell me, you will die."
Sure enough there is a problem!
Cao Yi deliberately darkened his face and said, "If you don't tell me, you will die now."
After the tree demon was silent for a longer time than before, he said: "It's not safe here. Find an absolutely safe place."
Absolutely safe place!
Cao Yi's heart moved and he nodded: "There is a safe place in Pindao. As long as the opponent's strength is not sky-breaking, he will never hear it."
After saying that, he removed the spirit gathering array. The tree demon has lost its inner elixir and is not afraid of her escaping.
The tree demon who was reborn after the disaster immediately tried to absorb the spiritual energy scattered around and underground, but she could not absorb much since she had lost her inner elixir.
Cao Yi ignored her, turned back to Master Ren and Ren Tingting who were stunned, and said politely: "Are you two okay?"
Ren Tingting burst into tears, like a flash flood, out of control.
Master Ren recovered from his stunned state, looked at his daughter, then at Cao Yi, and breathed out slowly: "Taoist Master, these twists and turns almost scared me to death."
Cao Yi smiled and said, "It's settled tonight, no need to worry anymore."
Master Ren nodded.
Ren Tingting's crying also became quieter.
Cao Yi looked away. Wherever he went, leaves were floating in the sky.
"Walk"
Cao Yi grabbed the shoulders of Master Ren and Ren Tingting, jumped into the air, stepped on countless emerald leaves, mobilized all the spiritual energy of the plants and trees he had just absorbed, and headed towards the Taoist temple at lightning speed.
The tree demon was very sensible and followed him without Cao Yi opening his mouth, but his movements were a bit shocking.
Straight out of the ground, countless roots split into two, like two human legs, and flew towards the place where Cao Yi left. If ordinary people saw it, they would be frightened to the point of going crazy.
Compared with the more than 20 minutes when we came here, it was much faster to go back. It took less than two minutes to arrive in front of the Taoist temple.
When they landed, the Ren family's father and daughter behaved very differently.
Master Ren was so dizzy that he almost fell to the ground.
Ren Tingting's eyes were shining with excitement, her cheeks were red, and she looked like she had opened a new door in life.
"Master Ren"
Cao Yi supported Master Ren and injected a little spiritual energy.
"I, vomit"
Master Ren just said the word "I" and immediately lowered his head and vomited.
I’ve seen people who are airsick, seasick, seasick. This is the first time I have seen someone who fainted from spells.
I patted my back and waited for a while.
Master Ren took a breath and kept saying: "It's too fast, it's too fast..."
"It's getting late. You two go in with Pindao to rest. After dawn tomorrow, there will be no ghosts. You two can walk back."
After Cao Yi finished speaking, he entered the Taoist temple with his hands behind his back.
"good"
Master Ren followed.
After taking two steps, he turned back and looked at the lonely sliding pole on the grass. He said angrily: "These bastards sent me into the tiger's mouth without saying a word. They just escaped alone. Let's see if I don't beat them half to death when I go back."
"Dad, come in quickly, what if you attract another ghost?"
Ren Tingting, who had already reached the door, turned back and said.
Hearing the word 'ghost', Mr. Ren shrank his neck and quickly entered the Taoist temple.
In the shrine, Cao Yi bent down and picked up the cup Ren Tingting gave him just now, and took a sip. Not bad, still warm.
…
The night was getting darker, there was no light outside, and Master Ren's slight snoring kept coming from next door.
After spending a few hours, Cao Yi, who had absorbed one percent of the tree demon's inner elixir aura, which was five years of tree demon aura, opened his eyes.
He lowered his head and glanced at the purple, gold and red gourd hanging open at his waist. With a thought, he shrunk and flew in.
In the gourd space, which is not that big, or in a different space, the tree demon with only a little life left is trembling under a white giant python.
"stop"
Cao Yi drank lightly.
Xiaotian immediately stepped aside obediently.
The dryad let out a long sigh.
Cao Yi looked at Xiaotian and asked suspiciously: "Have you been single for too long, and you still feel delicate when you look at a hermaphrodite tree demon?"
Xiao Tian swung his tail and looked to the side.
Cao Yi shook his head and looked at the tree demon: "Can we talk now?"
The tree demon looked around and said, "This starts with the ancestors of the Ren family. The ancestor of the Ren family, Ren Xiao, replaced the general Tu Sui who died of illness and led an army of 500,000 people to conquer Lingnan. Before setting off, he received a secret order from the Emperor of Qin to find the elixir of death. , Ren Xiao searched all over Lingnan, and finally found it in a place called Hongxi Village."
"Hongxi Village?"
Cao Yi's heart moved.
"The so-called elixir of death is actually a zombie king who has lived for an unknown number of years and has great magical powers. Ren Xiao didn't know whether to live or die, so he sent troops to capture him. As a result, thousands of soldiers were killed and injured. If it weren't for a woman with amazing magic skills who suddenly appeared and used a secret method to After defeating the zombie king, Ren Xiao will not escape death."
The king of zombies, a woman with amazing magic skills.
Cao Yi narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is the zombie king you are talking about a general?"
"Don't call him by his name"
The dryad's voice trembled.
Cao Yi asked suspiciously: "When was the last time you saw the general? Where was it?"
"Don't mention his name again. I won't mention his name again."
cried the dryad.
"Okay, let's not mention it anymore. You can continue talking."
Cao Yi did not provoke the tree demon any more.
"Six years later, Ren Xiao fell ill and was unable to govern. When the world was in chaos, the ambitious general Zhao Tuo joined forces with generals loyal to him to sideline Ren Xiao, pretending to the outside world that Ren Xiao had given up the throne to him. After taking power, Zhao Tuo Not only did he kill Ren Xiao and block the road back to the north, he also launched a mutiny and purged the southern expedition army from top to bottom, killing and wounding tens of thousands of people."
"Ren Xiao's son was also in the army at the time. He wanted to avenge his father, but he was outnumbered. When he was about to die, the woman with amazing magic skills appeared and rescued Ren Xiao's son."
"I don't know what happened next. I only know that later on, the Ren family gave birth to nine Southern Celestial Masters, who took it as their own duty to hunt down the zombie king. I wonder if they were cursed, and each of them had to die a good death. After his death, he still harmed his family. Later, he let his family stop being a heavenly master, and the curse stopped. That’s all I know. Lin Jiu knows more about other things than I do. You can ask him.”
The ancestors of the Ren family had nine Southern Celestial Masters who took it upon themselves to hunt down the King of Zombies. They were cursed and were not allowed to die a good death. After their death, fire harmed their families.
Master Ren's father, Ren Weiyong, also turned into a zombie.
Plus the system task of guarding Renjia Town and eliminating the source of zombies.
Together, a storm is about to emerge!
Cao Yi frowned.
