In a corner of Shenjing, a group of black-clothed protectors from the Qiankun Sect were vigilantly surrounding the mansion of the Puppet Master. Xie Tianyuan, the chief priest of the Qiankun Sect, was looking at the distant sky with his hands on his back, where the burning clouds rendered the sky brilliant red.
"The chief priest!" A black-clothed chief priest came out of the house, pressed his hands on Xie Tianyuan's chest and saluted, then said respectfully, "There is a basement in the puppet master's house, but all the passages to the basement have been blocked and collapsed, and the access is completely Block it up.”
Xie Tianyuan said calmly: "Unblock it as soon as possible."
The black-clad officiant said with some embarrassment: "It's a bit difficult because the entire passage is blocked by falling rocks, and we don't know how long the passage is and what's going on inside, so we may not be able to clear it completely in our haste. "
Xie Tianyuan glanced at him sideways and said coldly: "So, such a big thing happened in the land of Shenjing, and our divine religion was unable to know the situation at the first time!"
The chief priest in black lowered his head in fear: "This subordinate is incompetent, please punish me, the chief priest!"
Xie Tianyuan snorted and said: "Under the rule of the divine religion, demonic energy appears. As the chief priest, you know nothing about it. Aren't you ashamed?"
The black-clad officiant said with a guilty look on his face: "My subordinates must find out the details as soon as possible!"
Xie Tianyuan said coldly: "One day, you only have one day! I can only block you from Chang Kun for so long. After this time, Chang Kun's hand will reach out!" After that, he stood up. He flashed and disappeared from the spot. The black-clothed priest turned around and shouted angrily: "Turn this place upside down, and I will get to the bottom of it!!"
A group of black-clothed guardians immediately cast spells to transport stones one after another from the corridor in the secret room of the house, and then transported them to the empty carriage parked at the entrance of the house. Soon the area around Puppet Master's house turned into a construction site, with people coming and going. Someone was constantly transporting truckloads of gravel out in horse-drawn carriages.
When some boulders blocked the road, some guardians stepped forward and used magic to smash the boulders. As the process progressed, the mana of one guardian after another was consumed, and then other guardians stepped forward to do the same.
When they advanced to the lifting platform of the stone chamber, the huge workload had already made them, the guardians of the divine religion, all look pale and sweat profusely.
But in the face of huge pressure, they had to grit their teeth and endure, while mobilizing more reliable monks to participate in the excavation, and mobilizing more carriages and porters to transport the gravel.
As the night got darker, when the black-clothed guardians finally advanced into the underground circular stone chamber, they looked at the overcrowded stone chambers below, each one as big as a bucket, and their faces turned pale.
Although they are all great monks, each of them can smash these huge rocks, but why should noble men like them do these tasks? Shouldn't these be the affairs of those lowly mud-legged men and porters
But the huge time pressure forced them to rush into battle, because if they were only left to those lowly mud-legged people, they could do this work for a month!
The noble religious men had no choice but to grit their teeth and persist, and continued to cast spells in this dusty, damp and dirty underground cramped space to break the stones one by one, and then use spells to transport them out one after another.
They worked like this for another night, and by the early morning of the next day, they had dug along the deep well into the underground grotto. But when they saw the huge grotto that was almost filled with falling rocks, each of them was about to collapse!
The guardians looked at each other, and each one could see the intention to retreat in the other's eyes. The chief priest kept retreating, and finally they retreated. Under the pressure of time, they surrounded the bottom grotto, the middle stone chamber and the upper chamber. An investigation letter was prepared, which described the underground private world of Master Puppet in detail.
But none of them knew what was buried under the abyss of this huge cave filled with boulders.
If they had not left, someone lying on the edge of the grotto abyss and listening could vaguely hear some rustling sounds. If someone climbed down the grotto abyss and drilled in along the cracks, they would find that at the deeper end, In the abyss at the bottom, there is a broken machine puppet with one leg and one arm missing. It is struggling to crawl. When the huge rocks above fall, they pile up on each other to form small spaces one after another, which allows it to crawl through.
This is exactly Vivian.
"My dear, is it you? I heard your voice, is that you? My dear!" Vivian's voice trembled, and she crawled towards the rustling sound coming from the front with difficulty.
She didn't know how long she had been crawling like this. She finally came to a relatively spacious angled space, which allowed her to crawl on her knees. With the light emitted by the necklace gems around her neck, she could vaguely make out what was ahead of her. There is a human figure slowly squirming.
Vivian crawled forward with difficulty for a distance and finally could see clearly that in front of her was a bloody man who was slowly growing. From his face, he could vaguely tell that this was the puppet master.
Vivian burst into tears of joy and cried, "Dear, I knew you weren't dead yet!"
Master Puppet's eyes moved in his eye sockets, and he said in an extremely hoarse voice: "I am immortal, and I will never die! As long as my body grows up, I will take you out of here. Go, darling!”
Vivian was ecstatic, covering her mouth and choking, "Okay, my dear, I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you forever!"
Master Puppet let out an intoxicating low laugh, and his voice buzzed in the cramped underground cave: "When I am done with this revenge, I will definitely avenge it! None of them can escape! I will kill them all Make it my specimen!!”
Vivian said bitterly: "That Zhao Xiaobao! How dare he lie to me! I will make his soul wail in pain forever!"
The puppet master Jie Jie said with a smile: "You stand back a little, my body will grow rapidly soon, don't look, I don't want you to see this scene."
Master Puppet was previously an extremely rare handsome man in the world, but now he uses a piece of rotten meat to describe him, which is a compliment to rotten meat.
Vivian quickly said: "My dear, I love you, no matter what you become, I will still love you!"
But Master Puppet insisted: "My dear, be obedient, turn around and don't look."
Vivian had no choice but to turn around. She heard a sound behind her, like the sound of Master Puppet's body growing, but suddenly Master Puppet screamed in anger: "No! How could this happen!! Why would this happen!! !”
Vivian was startled and immediately turned her head, only to see that Zhenren Puppet's body was now covered with green grass, and even tree trunks and branches had grown out of his body. The terrifying sight made it impossible to tell whether the tree trunk was his body. , or flesh and blood is his body.
"What's going on?" Vivian cried in fright.
Master Puppet quickly understood, and he laughed desperately: "I understand, so that's it! It's him, that Li Chengfeng!! It's the tree seed he planted in my body!!"
Li Chengfeng planted tree seeds in the body of the puppet master. When stimulating the immortal power to make them grow, the puppet master activated the puppet mechanism to make them explode. At the same time, he used his magic power to suppress the power.
But after a big battle, Master Puppet's body was chopped into two pieces, bombarded by red light waves and then fell to the bottom of the abyss, smashed to pieces.
In order to recover his bloody body, he mobilized the magic power of the magic circle on his body to release powerful vitality to make his body grow rapidly.
But while it activated the rapid growth and recovery of his physical body, it also activated the tree seeds that remained in his body.
These tree seeds grew crazily, and countless fibrous green leaves grew out and became one with his flesh and blood!
He, the puppet master, the world-famous master of puppets, master of magic circles, and master of thunder and calamity, has now become a neither human nor ghost... a tree man!
But this is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that due to the growth of countless fibrous roots, they completely destroyed the physical meridians, blood vessels and internal organs of the puppet master, and even destroyed his skin with the magic circle engraved on it.
At this time, Master Puppet was no longer able to mobilize any magic power. He was unable to release any small spell. He was even worse than a child!
Master Puppet's face quickly merged into this "trunk" and became extremely weird and terrifying. He struggled to say the last words: "Quick...run, my dear."
If there were tears, Vivian's eyes must be full of tears at this moment. She screamed loudly and desperately: "No!!!"
But she could only watch helplessly as the puppet master's flesh and blood mixed with the branches and trunks and grew crazily. His body gradually merged with the tree body, and the branches and trunks twisted and twisted along the cracks in the rocks in all directions. growing.
Vivian looked at the countless branches growing over her. She finally closed her eyes and gave up the idea of escape. She murmured softly: "No, I won't run away. I said we will be together forever. Central Plains There is a poem that people say: In the sky, I want to be a winged bird, and on the earth, I want to be a twig. What a beautiful poem, my dear. I want to be with you, no matter where you are, no matter what you become! This is also very beautiful. Okay! In this way, we can live forever and be together forever."
As the growing branches wrapped around Vivian, more and more branches and leaves grew, slowly tying Vivian into them, turning her into the tree growing in the abyss grotto. Part of a large tree.
A few years later, if someone is lucky enough to dig here, when they see this twisted tree, they will never imagine that there are two twisted but paranoid souls growing and imprisoned in it.
