Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 342
[Chapter 342 Old Master Dryad (12)]
After weighing it all over, the old master decided to take Zimu out privately. This is not a big deal. After all, he is the old master, so he still has this right. If the elders pursue it, he will at most say he wants a helper, so , the two went down the mountain.
After going down the mountain, when he arrived at a secluded place, Zimu stripped Mu Rulian from his true essence, like a newborn child, after landing, it slowly revealed its original shape, and when he opened his eyes, Mu Rulian was the first. The only person who saw it was Zimu, who rushed over happily.
“Zimu!”
“Rulian.” Zimu had a smile on his face.
The old master was actually dumbfounded. Mu Rulian looked a bit like her mother, Qiaomei. She was more handsome than Qiaomei. When the mother and daughter met, Mu Rulian did not know that the man in his twenties was her. Mu Rulian ‘s father, this is also excusable, so she called out softly: “Rulian…”
“You are…” Only then did Mu Rulian realize the existence of another person. The man in front of him was strange but strange. Some familiar, finally, she restored her father’s appearance in her childhood memory. “Father!”
“Rulian… I have suffered for you, child.” The old master hugged his daughter, and tears flowed unconsciously.
Mu Rulian cried out in pain, and said in her mouth, “Father, I know my brother is going to burn you to death, so I’m so afraid.
” When I saw my daughter, I looked at her carefully, and she was as cute as she was twenty years ago.
With tears in her eyes, Mu Rulian replied, “Thanks to Zimu for saving me, otherwise I would have died in the sea of fire.” After speaking, she glanced at Zimu gratefully.
The old master nodded, touched Mu Rulian’s face, and asked lovingly, “Why are you so stupid, why did you jump into the sea of fire? If there is no Zimu to save you, you will…”
“My daughter doesn’t want to see her father die, because her daughter In the past 20 years, there has not been a day where I have not missed my father.” Mu Rulian threw herself into the arms of the old master and cried bitterly again.
The old master closed his eyes and remembered more than a hundred years ago, when their family of four lived happily, but unfortunately he was not born as a mortal, so he had his fate later. For the mother and son of Qiaomei, his heart is full of guilt , Now that Qiaomei and Mu Qingshan are dead, the old master poured all his love into Mu Rulian.
After reviewing the old times, the old master started to worry, the road to find the ‘two-headed tree demon’ was dangerous, and he was always worried with Mu Rulian, so he said to Zimu: “Zimu, starting from today, you will be good for me. Take care of Rulian.”
“Father, do you want to leave Rulian again?” Mu Rulian finally saw her father, how could she want to part with her father again, she felt a lot of reluctance in her heart.
The same is true of the old master, but for Mu Rulian’s safety, he had to make this decision: “Rulian, listen to Dad’s words and wait for Dad to come back.”
“No, wherever Dad goes, Rulian will go.” looking at the old man.
Suddenly, Zimu knelt in front of the old master and said loudly: “Zimu is not talented, although his mana is not as good as the old master, he can help a little bit, since Rulian doesn’t want to be separated from the old master, he also asks the old master to fulfill him and bring him with him. Come on the two of us.”
“Zimu, it’s dangerous to go here, don’t come here.” The old master shook his head.
Mu Rulian pulled the old master and said coquettishly, “Father, I no longer have a mother or a brother, do you still have the heart to leave me alone?”
“Rulian, how could father be willing to…”
Hearing the old master This sentence, Zimu took the opportunity to say: “Old Master, you can rest assured to take the two of us. If we fight against demons, I will do my best to protect Rulian, so that we can all take care of us along the way.”
“This… “The old master was a little shaken.
Mu Rulian shouted tenderly, “Father…”
“That’s fine, but you mustn’t mess around.” Seeing that his daughter insisted, the old master had no choice but to agree.
The three walked together, and it took more than a month to find out where the ‘Double-headed Dryad’ was. The old master was worried that the ‘Double-Headed Dryad’ would cause too many murders, so he rushed to Heifeng Ridge non-stop, but Because I didn’t know the way, I had to ask all the way.
The weather is hot, and from time to time, they would sit in the tea shed by the roadside for a rest, drink herbal tea, and look at the poisonous sun in the sky, Zimu whispered softly: “I don’t know how far the Black Wind Ridge is?”
“Little Er Brother, let me ask, is Heifeng Ridge far from here?” Mu Rulian turned her head to look at Xiao Er who added tea.
When Xiao Er heard this, his hands trembled with fright, and he hurriedly asked, “Girl, don’t you want to go to Heifeng Ridge?”
“Can’t you go?”
Xiao Er looked around and replied in a low voice, “I persuade girl, don’t go. Go to that place.”
“What’s the matter?” The old master put down the tea cup and looked at the little Er, he felt that the little Er seemed to know something.
Xiao Er swallowed his saliva and replied, “I heard people say that there are monsters that kill people without blinking an eye, and none of those who entered the ridge can come back alive.”
“Is it so powerful?” Zimu asked deliberately. .
Xiao Er shook his head and replied, “Guest officer, believe it or not, to tell you the truth, a Taoist priest came a few days ago, and it took only one day to enter, and the next day, his body was thrown outside Heifeng Ridge.
” Many thanks to the second brother.” Mu Rulian is a human, so she naturally speaks more gently, she knew that the second brother was showing good intentions, so she took two pieces of money and put it in the hands of the second one. “I wonder if the younger brother can tell me which road is closer to Heifeng Ridge?” After speaking, Mu Rulian pointed to the two forked roads outside the tea shed.
Xiao Er took the money, shook his head and replied, “If you really want to go, I can’t stop you. The one on the left goes straight to Heifeng Ridge.” After that, Xiao Er carried the kettle to another table.
Zimu looked at the road on the left. It seemed to be much narrower than the road on the right. It was probably because few people walked. The path was overgrown with weeds. , so he asked in a low voice: “Old Master, is that monster really that powerful?”
“When the time comes, just be more careful.” The old master took a sip of tea, and he wasn’t sure how big the ‘two-headed tree demon’ was now. Strength, I was a little worried in my heart.
After drinking tea, the three of them walked towards the narrow path. The more they walked, the more they felt that something was wrong. They always felt that someone was secretly following them, but when they looked back, there was nothing.
Mu Rulian was a little scared, got closer to the old master, and asked in a low voice, “Dad, could it be a ghost?”
“Do ghosts come out during the day.” The old master replied with a smile, and touched Mu Rulian’s head, Although he once wanted to stop Mu Rulian from following, but now he has come, there is no turning back, so he ordered: “Zimu, pay attention to the surroundings.”
“Yes, old master.” Zimu nodded, and he also felt that the situation around him was wrong. , so while walking, look around vigilantly.
