Dryad Old Master (11)

Dryad Old Master (11)

The old master was very sad to learn that the woodcutter mother and son died at the hands of Komori, but he was even more sad that Komori ended up like this because he helped him. He could not imagine such an ending at all, so he hurriedly asked: "Elder, where is Komori now?" where?"

"Do you want to ask whether Xiaomori is dead or alive?" The elder glanced at the old master.

The old master nodded and replied: "I was the one who harmed Xiao Sen. If it weren't for me, Xiao Sen wouldn't be like this. I want to know where his body is..."

"He's not dead."

"What?" The old master was very surprised when he heard this answer.

The elder looked at the old master and sighed: "Although he is not dead, there is no tree spirit like Komori in the world today. There is only a monster called the 'Two-Headed Tree Monster'. This monster became possessed by an unknown source and got the evil spirit." With his power, he established the mountain as his king, and corpses littered the fields, keeping strangers away."

"The elder means that Komori became a demon?"

"Well, he became a demon and led a bunch of little demons to cause trouble in the world. No one can stop him. What a pity."

"If this is the case, and the way of heaven calls, he will definitely die in the path of calamity and will never be reborn."

"So, you have to go and resolve this grievance." The elder sighed.

The old master knew what was going on and agreed, "I'll go right away."

"Wait a minute." The elder stopped the old master and took out a piece of true energy. "Bring this with you, it might be useful."

"Thank you, elder." The old master carefully collected the true essence on his body. This is a rare treasure for the tree spirits. Having such a thing is like having an extra life. It is the only remaining tree spirit in the country of thousands of trees. pellets.

After coming out from the elders, the old master found a substitute old master, told him some things about the Land of Ten Thousand Trees, and was about to leave Wuhua Mountain to look for the so-called 'two-headed tree demon'. At this time, a young tree demon was anxious He rushed over, held the old master's hand and said, "Old Master, old master, something serious has happened."

"What big thing?" The old master couldn't hear the words "big thing happened" now. The country of ten thousand trees had just suffered a disaster. It was in the period of recovery. If there was another big event, he was afraid that the country of ten thousand trees would not be able to bear it.

The little tree spirit looked at the tree spirit next to him, pulled the old master aside, and said quietly: "Old Master, there are humans in the land of thousands of trees."

"Human beings?" The old master looked up and saw trees everywhere, with no human atmosphere at all. He asked in confusion: "Where are the human beings?"

"Zimu has hidden humans." The little tree spirit replied softly.

The old master didn't quite believe it. He knew Zimu. He was nineteen years old. He was an upright and studious tree spirit and a rare talent in the clan. The old master originally wanted to suggest that Zimu should be the next old master, but he was rejected by the elders. Zimu refused on the grounds that he still needed training.

"Where is Zimu? Find Zimu for me."

"Old Master, I brought Zimu here, but don't say that I told you." The little tree spirit looked at the old master with some worry. After all, the little tree spirit who was only a few years old was naturally afraid of being repaired by the big tree spirit.

The old master nodded and acquiesced: "Just go find him."

"Yeah." The little tree spirit nodded and fled away.

After a while, the little tree spirit brought Zimu. When Zimu saw the old master, he saluted respectfully: "Old Master."

"Yes." The old master nodded and saw the little tree spirit winking at him, so he said, "Little tree spirit, you have nothing to do here. Please step back."

"Yes, old master." After hearing this, the little tree spirit ran away faster than anyone else.

After the little tree spirit left, the old master looked at Zimu without blinking. Zimu, probably feeling guilty and sweating, asked in a low voice: "I wonder what the old master wants to see Zimu?"

"Are you hiding humans in the Land of Ten Thousand Trees?" the old master asked directly.

After Zimu thought for a while, he shook his head: "Zimu didn't."

"Really do not have?"

"No…"

The old master knew Zimu well, and by looking at Zimu's expression, he knew that Zimu was lying, so he deceitfully said, "If you don't tell me, I have no choice but to tell the elders and let the elders handle it personally."

"Old Master, no!" Zimu hurriedly stopped the old Master when he heard that he was going to tell the elders about the matter.

The old master asked again: "Then did you hide it or not?"

"Hide it." Zimu finally told the truth.

"Who is the other party?"

Zimu looked at the old master and replied in a very soft voice: "Rulian..."

"Who do you think you are?" Old Master grabbed Zimu's shoulder.

Zimu mustered up the courage to answer: "Mu Rulian."

The old master was so excited that he couldn't speak. A hundred years have passed, and his daughter Mu Rulian is still alive. This made the old master who originally thought that everything would return to dust was ecstatic, but he couldn't believe it, and he was busy pulling Zimu's hand asked: "What's going on? Tell me in detail."

"That's it..." Zimu told what happened a hundred years ago. It turned out that on the day the fire burned the mountain, Zimu watched Mu Rulian jump into the volcano. He heard Mu Rulian shouting in the fire. Saying "Dad...Dad", he was very curious. At that time, he didn't know who such a human woman was. He only thought that this woman was not a bad person, so he took advantage of Mu Rulian's unconsciousness and dragged Mu Rulian to the By his side, he used his true energy to protect Mu Rulian. In this way, Mu Rulian survived. Zimu knew from her mouth that the old master was her father. At this time, Zimu already knew that the old master was sealed. In order to Let the old master meet his daughter. With Mu Rulian's consent, he protected Mu Rulian in his true essence and sealed it for a hundred years.

"This is how old you are in these hundred years.

The reason for not growing up? "The old master finally understood that the reason why Zimu has not grown older for a hundred years is because he used his true energy to protect Mu Rulian.

Zimu nodded and replied: "Zimu made the decision without permission. I hope I won't blame you."

"Hey, how could I blame you? If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..." The old master sighed as he thought of what happened a hundred years ago.

"Originally, I have wanted to tell the old master about this for a long time, but I never found the chance."

"Yes." The old master nodded, remembering what he had to do. "But now is not the time."

"Is there something wrong, old master?"

"Well, I have something important to deal with, and I have to go far away. I don't know when I will be able to come back this time." The old master thought of Xiao Sen and felt sorry for him.

After hearing this, Zimu looked delighted and asked happily: "Can I take Zimu with you, then?"

"This..." The old master looked at Zimu. He knew that if he took Zimu with him, he would be able to see Mu Rulian earlier. However, the elder did not give such instructions. After thinking about it, there were advantages and disadvantages. After all, letting Zimu stay in Wanwan The Kingdom of Trees is also a dangerous thing. If the elders knew that Zimu was secretly hiding a human woman while he was away, he would definitely be furious.
