Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 338

[Chapter 338 Old Master Dryad (8)]

A few days later, a luxuriously dressed woman suddenly came to Wuhua Mountain. The woman stood at the foot of Wuhua Mountain, looking at the trees in front of her, and her eyes warmly shouted, “Yuan Yang… Yuan Yang…” The

old master was cleaning up at this time . , I was a little surprised when I heard someone call this name, so I hurriedly asked Xiao Mori, a fellow practitioner: “Brother Xiao Mori, did you hear any sound?

” Close your eyes.

The old master sighed, thinking that he was thinking too much, so he closed his eyes and prepared to continue practicing. At this time, the shouting became even louder. After several times, he could no longer remain calm, and left Xiao Sen and arrived at the foot of Wuhua Mountain.

Years passed, looking at each other, everything has changed, the woman in front of her has entered middle age, and the old master is still so young, the woman recognized the old master, and the old master also recognized the woman.

“Qiaomei…”

“Yuanyang…” The

two looked at each other, but did not dare to approach. After a while, the old master asked, “Qiaomei, how have you been all these years?”

“It’s okay… “The woman turned her head away, not looking at the old master.

“I heard…”

“I came back with my son. He is now the county magistrate.”

“Really? Then does he have a wife? What about Rulian, how is Rulian?” The old master heard Qiaomei That being said, I am naturally happy.

At this time, the woman suddenly looked at the old master and said anxiously: “Yuanyang, hurry up and leave Wuhua Mountain.”

“Why?”

“…Don’t worry about it so much, you need to escape.”

“Qiaomei, what happened?” The old master saw Qiaomei’s nervous appearance, as if something had happened.

The woman sighed and replied, “It’s my fault, when I left here, I lied to my son that you were dead, but he remembered that until now, he insisted on winning the exam and came here to be the county magistrate to find out your death. Because of your revenge, your son was reckless by nature and interrogated many people. Those people didn’t recognize them, so he locked them up. I saw that those people were pitiful, so I had to tell him the truth.”

“So, Qingshan knows that I am a tree spirit . ?”

“Hmm.” The woman nodded.

The old master was happy for a while, thinking that he would not have to hide it, that is, he could see his son, and hurriedly said, “Then why didn’t he come with you?”

“…” The woman looked at the old master and hesitated.

“Qiaomei, what’s the matter? Could it be that something happened to Qingshan?” The

woman was so excited that she pulled the old master and said, “Yuanyang, let’s go, if you don’t go, my son will come.

” What…” The old master became more and more confused as he listened.

As a last resort, the woman told the reason. It turned out that when Mu Qingshan found out that his father was not dead and was a tree spirit, he was not only unhappy, but also very angry. Not listening to his mother’s advice, he threatened to set fire to Mount Wuhua and kill all the tree spirits.

The news shocked the old master. He did not expect such an outcome. The woman urged, “Yuanyang, let’s go, let’s go far.”

“No…” The old master waved his hand and closed his eyes. Huashan is a country of ten thousand trees, where can he avoid it?

The woman still wanted to persuade the old master. At this time, a large number of officers and soldiers came up with torches. The old master saw that the officers and soldiers were still some distance away, so he turned around and prepared to go back and tell the tree spirits in the country of ten thousand trees, so that the tree spirits could use Protect yourself with your true essence.

The tree spirits all panicked after being informed. The suffering of fire is the worst thing for trees to bear. If ordinary trees are burned, they will only leave a piece of scorched earth, and even the roots of the ground cannot be preserved. Although they are tree spirits, they also have Fear of fire by nature.

“Old Master, Old Master, doesn’t it hurt to be burned by the fire?” A young tree spirit ran over and took the old master’s hand and asked. This tree spirit was only three years old.

The old master was afraid of scaring the little tree spirit, so he comforted: “Don’t be afraid, when the fire comes, you can protect yourself with your true essence.”

“Oh.” The little tree spirit nodded.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, thinking that the officers and soldiers had set fire, and a scorching heat hit from another direction.

The fire was burning along the mountains, and the raging fire was testing the existence of the kingdom of ten thousand trees. The woman stood at the foot of the mountain and cried and broke her heart.

“I harmed you, Yuan Yang…”

“Mother, he clearly harmed our mother and son.” Mu Qingshan, wearing an official uniform, pulled the woman aside and watched the fire burn, giving him a kind of feeling. Excited, for more than ten or twenty years, without the care of his father, the mother and son have been reduced to the streets and have suffered humiliation. This kind of fate is all bestowed by the tree spirit, how can he not hate it.

Just when he was immersed in this sense of revenge, a woman dressed in silk and satin jumped into the fire. The woman was running in the fire, causing the officers and soldiers to shout: “Second miss!”

“Sister…” Mu Qingshan He didn’t expect his sister Mu Qinglian to follow, nor did he expect Mu Qinglian to jump into the fire, he was dumbfounded.

At this time, the woman’s cry grew louder, and she took Mu Qingshan’s hand and said, “Qingshan, stop, put out the fire, Qinglian is inside!”

“I…” Mu Qingshan looked at the fire in front of him, he had already Feeling incompetent, before going out, he calculated the wind from the sky. With this wind, he planned to burn down the entire Wuhua Mountain, so the fire was simply not something that people could put out.

All the tree spirits screamed in this raging fire. The old master has True Yuan body protection and can feel the pain of the fire, not to mention those little tree spirits… This fire has not stopped for three days and three nights. When the emperor of Chao heard that the county magistrate had set the fire, he was very angry, and before the fire was extinguished, he sent someone to take Mu Qingshan into custody.

The officers and soldiers at the foot of Wuhua Mountain were withdrawn, and even Qiaomei was taken away by the officers and soldiers. The government said that the emperor wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, so Qiaomei and Mu Qingshan were locked up separately.

The Land of Ten Thousand Trees has been tested in this fire. Although most of the tree spirits survived, they have been seriously injured, and some young tree spirits were not spared. This made the old master very sad. At the same time when the essence is dispersed to treat the injured tree spirit, he uses his true essence to adjust his breath.

At this time, the elders of the Country of Ten Thousand Trees seemed to have discovered something, so the old master was called by the elders.

“Old Master, do you have something to say to me?”

“What does the elder mean?” The old master glanced at the elder.

The elder closed his eyes and sighed, “Aren’t you going to tell me who set the mountain on fire?”

“Elder…” The old master lowered his head and said endlessly.

After listening to the elder, he shook his head: “It’s all sin, it’s your own sin, but it’s your fault that you caused my family to suffer this time. Think about it, how to make up for it.”

“I understand, let ‘s do it now. “The old master nodded, the elder had the intention to protect him, and he didn’t plan to announce the old master’s affairs to the clan, how could he not be grateful.
