Azusa Tree Spirit originally thought that it would be good to be able to save his life, but he did not expect that this would be a blessing in disguise. It was an unexpected surprise. Then, this guy happily took the two girls and the dragon scale fire into the woods.

After walking about ten feet, there was a sound of wind in front of us, and then several shadows of spirits appeared, and there was a voice among them shouting: "Stay here, Qiliu Ancient Forest does not allow outsiders to enter, exit quickly, lest we

Start driving them away."

"That's unreasonable!" Hearing this, Ruotao's face suddenly sank: "You kidnapped me, corpses, horses and demons, you still dare to be so arrogant, are you asking for a beating?"

"Sister Tao, stay here, stay here." The catalpa tree spirit next to her said hurriedly: "These are my companions. They can't withstand your thunderous attacks. It's better for me to talk to them."

Gu Sangnu also whispered in her ear: "Ruotao, it's not a bad thing to calm down a little."

"That's all, I'm giving face to little brother Zishu." After Ruotao said that, she pressed the handle of the thunder blade with her hand and stared at the other person coldly without saying a word.

At this moment, the Zi tree spirit hurriedly walked to the other party, and those wood spirits also revealed their true colors. They all turned out to be stout middle-aged men.

"Uncles, these two sisters are all distinguished guests from Zhurong Palace..." Zi Shuling told the story in a few words, and the faces of the middle-aged men suddenly became a little ugly.

One of the middle-aged men asked with a stunned look on his face: "So, the strange lion-headed horse we just captured belongs to these two people?"

"Yes, Corpse Horse is my companion." Seeing that the other party was a little embarrassed, Ruotao immediately seized the opportunity and shouted: "Also, you also captured the demon that I sent in to look for Corpse Horse. What does this mean?

Could it be said that those who want to bully us, Zhu Rongli Palace, are not allowed to do so?"

With this big hat off, several wood spirits felt ashamed. What Ruotao said was true. When the demons and ghosts rushed into the woods, they did not attack any wood spirits. They were already attacking like crazy.

Okay, I didn’t ask anything about it at all. It was indeed a bit reckless.

In addition, these wood spirits did not consult with the seven ancient pine elders when they took action to capture the demons and ghosts. They did it entirely on their own, which was a taboo in this ancient forest.

Several middle-aged men chatted with each other and discussed, and the leader immediately said: "Miss Ruotao, it seems that there is indeed a misunderstanding. Let's do this. In order to express my apology, I will take you to the tree hole where the monster is imprisoned, and let the other person out first.

."

"Well, that's about the same." Ruotao saw that they were more sensible, so she nodded slightly: "Everyone can just talk to each other. The most important thing is to avoid getting hurt and be friendly. We don't want our companions to suffer."

"Okay, you two, please come over here." The middle-aged man-looking wood spirit led the two girls forward, and the catalpa tree spirit followed closely beside him. After walking for about ten seconds, they came to a tree as thick as several people could hug each other.

in front of old withered tree.

This tree has long since died, but it is entangled with countless green vines, forming a "room", and the entrance is blocked by a huge rock.

“Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo”

But just when a few middle-aged men were about to move the boulder, an old voice suddenly roared from behind: "Wait a minute, what are you going to do?"

"Hey, this is... the Eighth Elder?" Seeing the other party's appearance, the voice of the Zi tree spirit next to Gu Sangnu suddenly trembled: "The Eighth Elder has always been arrogant and unreasonable, but now we are in trouble."

"Hmph, the few juniors guarding the entrance to the ancient forest are quite courageous." At this moment, an old wood spirit with a beard several feet long on his chin strode over with a cane.

This guy's face was full of wrinkles, his nose was hooked, and his eyes were shining with ferocity. He then roared: "How dare you allow outsiders to enter Qiliu Ancient Forest? Are you colluding with foreign enemies and planning to rebel?"

Hearing this, several middle-aged men were so frightened that they all knelt down and said, "Young ones don't dare."

Immediately afterwards, one of the leading men said tremblingly: "Eighth Elder, in fact, there is a reason for this. The two girls in front of us are both distinguished guests from Zhurong Palace. We mistakenly arrested their corpse horses and demon companions before. Now it has been clarified.

It's a misunderstanding..."

"Shut up!!" The eighth elder shouted sharply: "I don't care about any misunderstandings. These two girls of unknown origin dare to associate with monsters and ghosts. I think they are definitely not good things. They also said that they were from Zhu Rong's palace.

You have all been lied to!"

Who would have thought that this Eighth Elder was like a mad dog and actually bit her? Ruotao suddenly roared angrily: "Old guy, who do you think is a liar?!"

Originally, Ruotao and Gu Sangnu had been standing nearby watching the excitement and never spoke, because they felt that this was someone else's housework and it was not easy for them to speak.

"Hoo——" It was too late to say it, but it was so fast at that moment. As Ruotao's roar came out, a large amount of murderous aura suddenly swept forward. Although the Eighth Elder was not weak in strength, he was not worth a pound compared to her. He immediately

He was so shocked that he took several steps back.

"You!" The Eighth Elder used crutches to prop himself up on the ground and managed to stabilize his body. A look of shock appeared on his face.

He thought to himself: "Oops, I thought these two girls were just unknown people who could be easily dismissed. I didn't expect them to be so powerful. No, their appearance will definitely have an impact on the plan. They must be killed!"

Thinking of this, the Eighth Elder suddenly raised his head and roared: "Where is the 'Wood Spirit Hundred Guards'? Kill the enemy immediately!" Just as this guy finished speaking, there was a continuous sound of shouts around him: "Get it!"

make!"

"No, no, eighth elder, don't do anything." At this moment, Zi Shuling subconsciously stopped in front of the other party, and he said loudly: "Sister Gu Sang is a good person, please don't..."

"You little beast, don't even think about ruining my good deeds!"

The Eighth Elder had already made up his mind to kill him. When the fierce light flashed in his eyes, he waved his crutch crazily and hit the Zi tree spirit with all his strength. "Bang!" The poor young man in green flew backwards, and even the spirit body was thrown away.

Half of his body was shattered, and he fell to Gu Sangnu's feet.

"Calpa tree?!" Gu Sangnu never expected that she was just giving the other person some spiritual energy, and that he would protect her like this and be brutally attacked. She suddenly shouted in anger: "Old man, you are so cruel!"

"Girl, you're done, just accompany this little beast on the road obediently." As soon as the eighth elder said these words, the wind surged around him, and then nearly a hundred wood spirit bodies appeared, and they shouted in unison

: "The Hundred Guards of the Wood Spirit Meet the Elder!"

Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the Eighth Elder immediately shouted crazily: "These two are demon women who control ghosts, kill them, I'll kill them quickly!"

"You!!" Hearing this, Ruotao and Gu Sangnu were really furious. They had no grievances and no grudges. The eighth elder was so ruthless and wanted to kill them. That would be a hornet's nest!

The hundreds of wood spirit bodies known as the Hundred Guards of Wood Spirits gathered their powerful spiritual power into a sphere in an instant, and were about to attack the two women. However, at this time, no one paid them any attention. Gu Sang Nu was busy

He was sending spiritual energy to the injured catalpa tree spirit to heal his wounds, and Ruotao roared: "Shanwei, break the rocks blocking the tree hole and rescue the ghosts."

"Awwww——"

Hearing this, Shanwei and the Ghost King roared at the same time, punching the huge rock behind the two girls, "Boom!" The gravel flew out in all directions, directly towards the wood spirit bodies, and the other party was caught off guard.

They were hit one after another, and the spiritual power they had just gathered lost control and dissipated without a trace.

"Damn it, you trash!" Seeing this scene, the eighth elder was so angry that his eyes were splitting. But at this moment, Gu Sang Nu stood up in excitement. It turned out that the Zi tree spirit had obtained her spiritual energy and temporarily suppressed her.

Injury, now, the angry Gu Sangnu is going to fight back!

"You old guy, you don't even let go of a little wood spirit, it's really abominable!

Uh-huh-" The next moment, Gu Sangnu raised the wooden staff in her palm high above her head. The object instantly bloomed with endless green light, spreading crazily in the shape of ripples. This powerful force immediately swept through all the surrounding wood spirits.

"Here is the personal token of the wood god Jumang!!" Ruotao saw those wood spirit beings all filled with fear, and took the opportunity to shout loudly: "Whoever dares to make a mistake will be killed without mercy!"

"What? She has Lord Wood God's token?" "Yes, this pressure and aura are exactly the same as when Lord Wood God came here in the past!"

"But why did the eighth elder want us to attack her? There is something wrong with this." The nearly a hundred wood spirits present were talking about everything, but the pressure released by Gu Sangnu's wooden staff was so strong that

But it is real and visible and cannot be faked.

"Whoosh whoosh-swish-swish-"

The next moment, the wind roared suddenly, and all the demons trapped in the tree hole flew out. Gu Sangnu shouted: "This so-called eighth elder not only slandered us as bad people, but also injured the innocent catalpa tree spirit.

Do you think you should listen to this scum and deal with us?"

Hearing this, the wood spirit bodies looked at each other in shock, and some suddenly shouted: "We might as well quickly ask the seven elders to come out to uphold justice, otherwise the misunderstanding will not end well."

But someone else said: "But several elders have gone into seclusion with that strange lion-headed horse. Before leaving, they entrusted the responsibility of guarding the ancient forest to the eighth elder. Should we listen to him?"

"You and I can't afford to mess with that girl holding Lord Wood God's token." These wood spirits are now without a master, and they can talk about anything. But at this moment, Gu Sangnu pointed at each other and shouted: "Idiot,

Look, where did the Eighth Elder go to just now?"

Ruotao also said: "If you think about it carefully, if the eighth elder had no evil intentions, would he run away when you are not paying attention?"

This was really a word that woke up the dreamer. The middle-aged men who had just led the two girls to the tree hole said one after another: "The Eighth Elder has been acting strangely recently. We should listen to the two girls." Suddenly,

Not far away, the cry of the dragon-scaled fire scorpion sounded: "Moo--"

"By the way, Huo Xie has a keen sense of smell. He must have smelled the breath of the eighth elder." Ruotao said to Gu Sangnu at this moment: "We must catch that old guy and find out why he wanted to kill us.

"

"You're right, I'm confused if I don't understand this matter." Gu Sangnu turned to a few middle-aged men and said, "Guys, please take care of Zi Shuling, he is seriously injured."

"Don't worry, girl, we will take good care of this child."

One of the men pointed in the direction where the dragon-scaled fire beast was standing and said: "Going straight ahead is where the seven elders are retreating, and your corpses and horses were also taken there. I suspect that the eighth elder also fled to the retreat stone.

Dong, is trying to do harm to the elders, because..."

At this point, the man suddenly fell silent, with a look of embarrassment on his face. Someone next to him said: "Girl, it is related to our Qiliu Ancient Forest's 'family scandal'. When the time comes, you'd better ask the elders yourself."

Bar."

"Yes, we are prohibited from approaching the retreat place of the elders." One of the Wood Spirit Hundred Guards shouted: "I'm sorry, girl, you can only find it by yourself, it's in the northwest."

"That's fine, Gu Sangnu, let's catch up quickly." After hearing Ruotao's words, she immediately nodded: "Okay, Huo Xi, you will lead the way."

"Moo moo -" After hearing this, the dragon-scaled fire beast screamed with vigor, and ran towards the northwest of the woods. The two women and the ghosts immediately followed.

…

On the other side, the Eighth Elder was running lifelessly in the ancient forest. He was already in a bad mood. Originally, this guy was a wood spirit second only to Elder Qiliu. Because of his high virtue and prestige, he was called the "Eighth Elder".

real power.

But as the years went by, the seven elders got older and were unwilling to continue to manage trivial matters, so they delegated some rights to the eighth elder and asked him to help handle affairs. However, after the rights were obtained, this guy changed his appearance.

They all consider themselves first and become more and more selfish. Gradually, among the ancient forest wood spirits, the Eighth Elder's reputation became bad.

Soon, some rumors spread to the ears of the seven elders. Although they were older, they were not confused. After visits and investigations, they finally learned about the evil deeds of the eighth elder. They also called him to reprimand him and told him no.
