Jane Yi walked under the locust tree. The locust tree was really big and it was unknown how many years it had existed.
When she came here before, she felt that something was wrong here.
The others stood outside the locust tree, feeling frightened and wondering what was going on.
Jian Yi squatted at the root of the tree and knocked on the trunk: "Hey, come out quickly."
Qin Xin: "..." Is this polite?
"Is this how Miss Jian usually catches ghosts?" Lan Mo whispered to Zhou Baoshuai and Mei Xiaotian, "Can you catch them like this? Miss Jian looks like a novice."
Mei Xiaotian: "You don't understand the boss's style."
Lan Mo held her chin, her beautiful eyes full of doubts. Could it be that all the TV dramas she had watched before were lies? The boss was not the kind of person he played in the TV dramas. Was the real situation like Jian Yi?
"Who is that person outside?" asked an extremely weak old man inside the locust tree. He was bound by a force and could not move.
The room inside the locust tree is like a suite, fully equipped with tables, chairs and benches.
The ghost girl sat at the head of the table. A ferocious look appeared on her pale face when she heard Jane Yi's voice. She was furious. If it weren't for that nosy person, she would have sacrificed those fresh souls tonight to improve her power.
hateful!
"The fact that you can hide here shows that the people outside are not simple. I have said long ago that you will suffer retribution for doing this sooner or later." Although the old man was very weak, he could not help but say, "People who commit evil cannot live, and ghosts who commit evil will end up with their souls scattered. Even if you have obtained an unconventional cultivation method, and gain powerful strength through such evil means, you will be taken away by heaven if not by humans. Heaven is not blind and will not allow evildoers like you to survive."
"Pa!" The female ghost was very angry and slapped the old man out of thin air, making him cry out in pain. He was already weak enough, and this blow left him no strength to speak, and he lay weakly in the corner.
"Old man, you're too talkative."
"If you help me, will my cultivation level be limited to this point?"
"You took advantage of me not paying attention and ruined my big plan."
"If you weren't still somewhat useful as an old thing, you would have died long ago."
The female ghost walked up to the old man with a ferocious look on her face and said, "It seems that I have left too much power for you. I only need to retain a trace of its essence."
The old man watched the ghost's long-nailed hand reaching out towards him, his heart filled with despair. If he had known this would be the end, he would have felt a little regretful. He had lived for thousands of years, finally cultivating to become a spirit, but he never imagined he would be deceived by a ghost and end up like this.
Even so, he would not cooperate with the female ghost to do evil.
The old man closed his eyes.
"Ghost girl, if you don't come out, how can I come in?"
The old man was stunned. Wasn't that person outside still there? Oh, right, if they were chasing after him, would they be a match for this female ghost?
He wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't speak. He realized that the female ghost had silenced him.
Jian Yi didn't wait long and disappeared under the locust tree with Qin Xiaomao in her arms. Everyone was a little worried and wanted to go and see but didn't know how.
Jane Yi instantly appeared in a suite-like space. All the furniture here was made of tree roots and branches, giving it a unique style.
She glanced at the old man lying on the ground; he looked very weak. She had previously felt there were two auras here, one strong, the other weak, but she hadn't expected this to happen. It seemed the old locust tree hadn't been complicit with the female ghost, but rather imprisoned.
The female ghost was surprised when Jane Yi suddenly came in.
She thought of how powerful Jane had been before, and the first thing she did was not to fight, but to run away.
She knew there were other people outside, so she planned to catch them while Jane Yi wasn't paying attention, and see what this little girl could do.
Young people are young people, and they are proud when they have some ability.
Seeing the calculating look on the ghost girl's face, Jian Yi was a little confused: "What plan did you come up with? Your smile is so ugly."
"You're ugly!"
"Your whole family is ugly!"
Jian Yi: "I'm sorry, my whole family is not ugly. Not only are they not ugly, they are also cute and beautiful."
The female ghost was so angry that she wanted to hit someone. She had never seen anyone who deserved a beating so much.
She didn't hesitate and floated outside.
Jane Yi inhaled towards the female ghost's position, and her spirit floated uncontrollably in front of Jane Yi. She was so anxious that she almost sweated, but the female ghost did not sweat.
She wanted to struggle, but found it impossible because the force was too strong.
Jane Yi pinched the ghost girl's neck, and she struggled in her hands like a little grasshopper.
"Master." Seeing that she really couldn't break free, the ghost's demeanor changed immediately. Her originally ferocious and terrifying face suddenly became pitiful, and her clothes transformed into a white dress. "Master, can you please let me go?"
Qin Xin: Is this a case of using soft tactics when hard tactics don’t work?
Where on earth did this ghost get the courage to actually use his beauty trick in front of the little monster? He didn't even look at how ugly she was.
Qin Xin couldn't help herself, she stretched out her claws and slapped the ghost. This time she showed no mercy and slapped the ghost so hard that the ghost cried out in pain.
The female ghost glared at the cat in Jane Yi's arms hatefully and almost cursed the cat as a little beast.
"What are you staring at my cat for?"
The female ghost quickly revealed an aggrieved expression: "Master, I really have no choice but to do this..."
"Little girl, you must not believe her, she is a liar!" The old locust tree used all his strength to say this, rolling on the ground anxiously, "This female ghost is the best at lying, don't trust her."
Jane: "I know. I just want to hear how she makes it up."
The female ghost gritted her teeth and made up a miserable life story for herself, looking at Jane with pitiful eyes.
"Are you finished?"
The female ghost was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I'm done."
"That's fine."
As the ghost screamed, Jian Yi rolled her into a ball and wiped her consciousness. She handed the balled ghost to Qin Xiaomao's mouth: "You've been waiting for so long, you must be starving. Come, eat it while it's hot."
Qin Xin didn't hesitate and swallowed the female ghost in one gulp. Then he curled up in Jian Yi's arms and found a comfortable position to fall asleep.
The old man originally wanted to persuade Jane not to believe the female ghost, even if it cost him his life.
But he really didn't expect the reversal to happen so quickly?
Jian Yi broke the power that bound the old man, and the old man, who was no longer bound by the power, looked much better.
He walked over and bowed to Jian Yi: "Thank you, Master."
"Are you the old locust tree spirit?"
The old locust tree nodded and said with some emotion: "I am."
"You've lived to such an old age, yet you were deceived by a female ghost. You need to reflect on yourself." Jian Yi guessed this from the old man's previous words. If the female ghost had not wanted to live in the locust tree spirit's house to nourish her soul, she might have swallowed the old locust tree spirit long ago.
The old locust tree spirit felt somewhat guilty: "The villagers are all simple humans. We have never seen a female ghost who could deceive people like this. When she first came here, she said that some bad guys had captured her to refine the soul-calling flag. I didn't expect that she was lying."
"I kindly let her stay at home to prevent her soul from disintegrating, but I didn't expect her to target the entire Dongchen Village from the beginning. She bound me and absorbed my power every day to replenish my soul. She also planned to kill people for sacrifice, using the souls of the living to increase her power. At that time, I was not as weak as I am now. I used most of my strength to cover the entire Dongchen Village, so that the fate of the people in Dongchen Village would be implicated with my own. This way, she could no longer attack the people of Dongchen Village."
"If she harms anyone in Dongchen Village, the heavenly punishment will immediately strike my body with thunder. Don't say I can't bear it, she will be the first to be unable to bear it."
"She couldn't do anything in Dongchen Village, so she had to leave. I really couldn't do anything else." The old locust tree sighed. "I felt myself getting weaker and weaker, so I hinted to the villagers to move away slowly, even though Dongchen Village was developing very well at that time and almost became a tourist attraction."
When Jian Yi came here, she felt that Dongchen Village was indeed a beautiful place.
The whole village has a very good layout and good feng shui, which should be a place of great wealth and honor. The roads here are good, the scenery is beautiful, and it is not far from Pingdan Town. According to modern people's thinking, it should be very popular to develop it into a distinctive village.
It turned out that the biggest reason why the people of Dongchen Village moved away without hesitation was the hint from the old locust tree.
The old locust tree felt that if he died one day, everyone here would be doomed, so he gave such a hint.
No wonder Mei Xiaotian and Zhou Baoshuai said that people in the village used to like to play under the locust tree, but now almost no one comes.
She had also thought that the place under the locust tree was a good place. Even if there were few people in the village, this place should be quite popular.
"You should be okay now, right?"
The old locust tree said thankfully, "Thank you, Master, for your help. I'm just so weak because my strength was sucked away by the female ghost and I have no way to get replenishment. I just need some time to recuperate."
"You saved so many people, which is considered a good deed. There will be a good result."
Jian Yi felt that it was a shame to see Dongchen Village continue to fall into such a state of disrepair. "Can Dongchen Village ever be restored to its former state?"
The old locust tree was stunned for a moment, then said, "Wait until my strength recovers and the suggestion is removed. I wonder if anything will change."
As for his fate being tied to that of the people of Dongchen Village, he had no intention of resolving it.
Of.
He actually likes the hustle and bustle, and everyone in Dongchen Village is like his child.
After being deserted for so many years, he really hopes that this place can become lively again.
"According to Feng Shui, Dongchen Village should be a treasured place. And with your old locust tree guarding the village, it shouldn't be an abandoned place." Jian Yi thought for a moment, "I think this place will become lively."
The old locust tree was a little happy: "That's great."
He likes people chatting by his roots, telling stories by leaning against his trunk, and children climbing up the tree to play mischievously.
It is said that people in Dongchen Village always teach their children that while they can climb trees, they must not break the branches. This kind of cherishment makes them feel very comforted.
In reality, he had already cultivated into a spirit, so the loss of two branches was no problem. As long as his spirit remained, even if only a single root remained of his body, he could recover. Of course, it was the protection of the people of Dongchen Village that made him desperate to protect them. These humans, whom he regarded as his children, had grown up under his watch, and caring for them was instinctive.
"Let me help you set up a formation. Sophora japonica trees attract ghosts, especially those like you."
The old locust tree was very excited and expressed his gratitude quickly.
It took some time for Jian Yi to set up the formation. She quite liked this old man: "When this place becomes lively in the future, you should be listed."
The old locust tree was confused: "List it?"
"It's been designated a protected tree by the state. If you're not a tree, you can still eat government food."
Old locust tree: “…”
"Once you get the sign, you'll be a nationally protected tree. No one will dare harm your true form. You can also register with a special department and make many friends like you."
"I'm leaving."
The old locust tree called Jian Yi and pulled something out from the corner: "Master, this is something belonging to a female ghost. It should be a technique."
He thought it would be better to let Jane handle this kind of thing.
Jane Yi was stunned when she saw it.
