Fairy on top

The old man told me so straightforwardly, but I hesitated and didn't dare to answer.

Seeing my hesitation, the old man chuckled and explained, "Female donor, don't worry, there is nothing wrong with this grass-rooted acorn. I am reluctant to tamper with such a precious herb."

When he said this, I felt even more strange.

If there is something wrong with this grass-headed blackberry, I can still understand why he gave it so simply. Like the saint, he poisoned the cacti, and then borrowed my hand to take the cucumber to the female village, intending to take the opportunity to kill the saint.

But now that Cao Touwu was not poisoned, and he had no such idea, then how could he give Cao Touwu to me so easily?

I took the grass-headed multiflorum, looked at the old man doubtfully, and asked, "Master Village Master, it is rumored that you need the grass-headed multiflorum to extend your life. Now that you have given the grass-headed multiflorum to me, will your health not be affected?"

The old man didn't answer me, but said to himself, "For so many years, she has been trying her best to kill me. I always accept everything she sends."

I believe the old man is not lying. It can be seen from A Gang's attitude towards us. Although the male village also dislikes the female village, as long as someone comes with something belonging to the saint, he will be treated as a guest by the male village and receive the gift. Come and see the leader of the village.

If the people in the male village do this, it must be the command of the village master. Therefore, over the years, the village master accepted all the things the saint sent to murder the village master.

At this time, the old man opened the wooden box that the saint gave me.

The wooden box was opened, and a firefly with a shimmering golden tail flew out of the wooden box.

The fireflies flew around the old man. As they flew, golden glitter sprinkled from the fireflies. The glitter sprinkled on the old man, and the light quickly dimmed.

Seeing the fireflies, Yuchen took me and immediately took a step back, keeping distance from the old man.

I asked Yuchen in a low voice, "Is this insect a Gu insect? Is it poisoning the village leader?"

"It's not poison," Yu Chen said, "This is a soul-eating insect. The eggs it lays can penetrate into the human body and devour the spiritual power of the cultivator. As long as there is spiritual power hidden in the body, this kind of insect cannot completely destroy the body." Eradication is a difficult and vicious pest."

Hearing Yuchen's introduction, Xiao Siqing opened her mouth in shock, and at the same time, she pulled Leng Yan back a few steps warily.

"These golden spots of light spilling out from the insect's body are its eggs?" Xiao Siqin's face looked a little ugly. "Thankfully, I thought these lights were beautiful before, but there are so many eggs. This is too disgusting."

After the female worm laid eggs, the light in her tail went out, and then she fell down from mid-air.

The old man stretched out his hand, caught the dead female insect, and then carefully put the female insect back into the wooden box.

"Soul-eating worms are very precious and very difficult to cultivate." The old man sighed and said with regret, "She must have spent a lot of effort to raise an adult worm. It would be a pity to use this adult worm on me. .”

The old man's reaction once again made me feel strange. He was poisoned by soul-eating bugs, which was much more serious than being poisoned. Why didn't he panic at all?

Does he really not want to live?

After sighing, the old man turned to look at me, meeting my surprised gaze.

He smiled at me and said, "The saint has been with me for many years. I have always accepted everything she sent me, but she has not killed me for so many years. Female donor, are you wondering about this?" ?

It’s not that she showed mercy to me, or that I am so powerful that I can detoxify all the poisons in the world. There is only one reason why I was not killed by her, and that is because she used the wrong method. Just like this soul-eating insect, the methods she used to deal with me were all aimed at high-level cultivators. If I still had spiritual roots, I might have been killed by her long ago. She wanted me dead, so poisoning her would be more effective. "

My eyes widened in shock.     What did I hear?

He said he has no spiritual roots?

I have also lost my spiritual roots, so I know exactly what it means to lose my spiritual roots. Without spiritual roots, he is just an ordinary human being. Yao Wang Gu Fang, is the male village leader an ordinary human being? Who dares to believe this!

"Where is your spiritual root?"

The old man Xu Shi had a casual and gentle attitude, but Xiao Siqin became much bolder and asked doubtfully.

"Give it to her." The old man smiled, and a trace of tenderness appeared on his old face. "She jumped off the cliff and committed suicide. Recovering her spiritual roots was her only chance to survive. I failed to save our child. Her rescue can be regarded as an apology to her."

Only now did Xiao Siqing realize that the female nun back then was the current saint.

Her eyes were full of surprise, "It turns out that the saint wants to kill you, not to fight against the female nun and the child, but because she is the female nun back then! You killed her daughter, and she killed you to avenge her daughter."

The old man nodded, calmly but with sadness.

When he mentioned what happened back then, he felt regretful, sad, and wanted to make it up to the saint, but he just didn't feel guilty.

Will the person who killed his own daughter suddenly have a conscience and want to make amends? Will a person with a conscience not feel guilty at all when he thinks about what happened back then?

The old man's attitude struck me as inconsistent. At this time, a bold guess suddenly jumped into my mind.

I looked at the old man and said, "Zhao Master, you didn't know that the medicine you sent out was fake, right?"

The old man's expression froze for a moment and he turned to look at me.

I continued, "By the time you realized it, it was already too late. All the patients in the town and your daughter were dead. The saint jumped off the cliff. In order to save her, you gave her your spiritual root. Only then did you give her your spiritual root." It’s the truth from back then, isn’t it?”

The old man looked at me blankly and said nothing.

Xiao Siqin retorted to me, "If that's true, then why doesn't he ask the Saint to explain? He has been hated by the Saint for so many years. The two villages are so close. It's not like he can't find the Saint. Why doesn't he go? Clear up the misunderstanding? Mom, you think of him too well. Don’t forget that he was the one who coaxed the Saint to leave the Medicine King Valley, and he was also the one who abandoned the Saint."

"I couldn't leave with her back then," the old man said suddenly. "It's taboo in Yaowang Valley to stop love and fall in love. She and I broke the rules, and the two of us couldn't leave Yaowang Valley alive. The only way to survive was The only way is to separate and never see each other again in this life. And if she is allowed to stay, the child in her belly will definitely not be saved. I know her, she will not give up the child. So I can only do that and find a way to trick her into leaving Yaowang valley."

After the old man finished speaking, Xiao Siqing, perhaps unable to control his emotions, immediately snorted.

I turned to look at Xiao Siqin.

Xiao Siqing seemed to realize that her attitude towards the old man was extreme, and hid behind Leng Yan, but she had no intention of apologizing to the old man.

The old man ignored Xiao Siqing and continued, "Actually, I told her these things, but she didn't believe me. Later, the male and female cultivators separated, and although they were close, I never had the chance to see her again. , naturally there will be no chance to tell her these explanations.

If it weren't for the fact that my life was about to end, I wouldn't have told you these words. As the saying goes, when a person is about to die, his words are also good. I hope that for the sake of Cao Tou Wu, you can help me bring these words to the Saint. Solve the misunderstanding between me and the saint, and help me obtain the saint's forgiveness. Otherwise, I will die with my eyes open. "

I looked at the old man and suddenly felt a sense of absurdity in my heart that I was being treated as a fool.

I exposed him mercilessly, "You are going to die, please ask us to help you explain to the saint in order to obtain the saint's forgiveness. If we really help you do this, won't you die in peace? According to You said it yourself, you love the saint so much that you are even willing to dedicate your spiritual roots to her. If you love her so much, you must want her to live a good life and live happily. But if the saint believes these explanations, She has forgiven you, will she be able to live the rest of her life? Wouldn't she hate herself for killing her lover with her own hands? Lord Village Master, you are going to die, but you never want the saint to have an easy time, this is yours Purpose?"
