Xiao Mu shivered.
The strength of this old peach tree is too strong, and it feels stronger than that century-old corpse in Jiangjun Mountain.
The world mutated, and this old peach tree didn't know what benefit it got, but its strength was so strong.
In this way, if I want to get peach branches from the old peach tree, I'm afraid it won't work by force.
However, judging from the situation just now, it is obvious that Lao Taoshu is not a bloodthirsty person, but he does not know whether he can negotiate and ask the other party to give him a peach branch.
Daoist Qingyan was very unbearable, his face turned pale, and his whole body was trembling. The old peach tree is too powerful, it has already frightened him.
Perhaps, his purpose of coming this time is to a certain extent the same as the two men just now, intending to completely cut down the old peach tree and keep it for himself, otherwise he would not be so scared.
"Taozu, let you kill again. We are incompetent, unable to protect you!"
An old man in his sixties suddenly came out from behind a rock on the hillside, looked at the old peach tree, and looked ashamed.
Old Taoshu said disapprovingly: "Chan Chief Hao, don't say that, these people are unreasonable, and you won't be able to help you if you come here, and it will even harm you."
"It's not a last resort. I never want to kill people, but they are too much. By the way, how is the village now?"
The old man, Village Chief Hao, suddenly looked worried, "The situation is not very good, and there are losses every day. That thing is elusive, and it is impossible to guard against it."
"pity!"
Old Peach Tree sighed, "I am rooted here, and it will take two days before I can move, otherwise I will definitely get rid of this harm for you."
Village head Hao said: "We are already very grateful that Taozu has such a heart."
"Actually, I don't dare to work for Taozu. Recently, more and more people have come for Taomu, and their strength has become stronger and stronger. If the relevant departments know the information, it will be even more detrimental to Taozu."
"Taozu will be able to move in two days, so let's take the opportunity and leave."
Old Taoshu said: "Why did Village Chief Hao say that? I am also a member of the village. I have been taken care of all these years, and I am today."
"When I can move, I must first get rid of this harm for the village. As for leaving, it's a big deal to wait until the next time I can move."
Village head Hao said with emotion: "The next time you can move, it will be a week later. Taozu doesn't have to do this for us, it's not worth it. Besides, the longer it takes, the more unfavorable it will be for Taozu."
"One week is enough for a lot of things to happen, if you stay here, Taozu..."
Village head Hao looked worried and shook his head again and again.
"Hey! Another friend is here, why don't you come out?"
On the trunk of the old peach tree, a strange face suddenly appeared, staring at the direction of Xiao Mu and Daoist Qingyan.
was found!
Xiao Mu was startled, but then walked out with a smile.
This old peach tree is not an evil person, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
My purpose is to ask for a peach branch, not to cut down a peach tree, so I can discuss it well, and the other party will leave if I don't give it to me.
"There is another friend, why don't you come out?"
The old Taoshu stared at the position of Daoist Qingyan.
Daoist Qingyan who was frightened kept hiding, not daring to go out. After hearing what Old Taoshu said, he walked out tremblingly.
"The two of you came here for the purpose of chopping down old trees and making mahogany swords, and selling them one by one?"
Lao Taoshu stared at Xiao Mu and Daoist Qingyan with a bad expression.
As for that Village Chief Hao, the first time Xiao Mu and Taoist Qing Yan came out, he had already quietly backed away.
Facing this kind of mutant, he can't help much, and staying where he is will only affect Lao Taoshu.
Xiao Mu smiled and said: "Taozu, you misunderstood, I came this time mainly to ask Taozu for a piece of peach tree, that's all."
"What about this one?"
Taking a deep look at Xiao Mu, Tao Zu was noncommittal.
Obtaining a piece of peach tree may affect it, but the nature is far less bad than cutting it down.
Daoist Qingyan said tremblingly: "My purpose is the same as this Mr. Mu's. I want to ask Taozu for a piece of peach wood to make a peachwood sword to subdue demons and subdue demons. Please Taozu make it happen."
Taozu said coldly: "Even if it's a piece of peach tree, it grows on my body, if it is missing, it will hurt my root, why give it..."
In the middle of speaking, Tao Zu stopped, as if he suddenly thought of something, his tone changed, and he continued: "However, if any of you are willing to do me a favor, I can give you a piece of peach tree, which is enough Make a mahogany sword."
Xiao Mu's expression changed, "Taozu, please tell me."
Daoist Qingyan said happily: "We are willing to help, Taozu, please feel free to speak up."
This kind of peach wood plucked from the old peach tree that has become fine, and made into a peach wood sword, the effect must be extraordinary, and the two of them were overjoyed when they heard the news.
If it's just a small favor, it's worth it anyway.
"Major Hao, tell me."
Old Peach Tree greeted Village Chief Hao.
"Thank you Taozu."
Village head Hao came out from behind the stone again, thanking Taozu first.
As soon as Taozu asked him to speak, he guessed what Taozu asked Xiao Mu and Taoist Qingyan to help, first thanked Taozu, and then said: "You two, I am Hao Dong, the village head of Taolin Village, Recently, an evil spirit appeared in our village, which appeared elusively and has already damaged the tablets of gods and lords in several villagers' homes, and even killed the ancestral ghosts."
"I see that you are all strange people, so please take action to get rid of this evil ghost for our village."
When Village Chief Hao said this, Taozu took over the words, "As long as any of you can help Village Chief Hao get rid of this evil spirit in his village, I am willing to donate a piece of peach wood, enough to make a peach wood sword."
Dao Qingyan was overjoyed, "I am willing to make a move."
However, Xiao Mu heard the hidden meaning in Taozu's words, and asked: "Taozu, this Qingyan Taoist priest and I both need a mahogany sword, so as long as we both help, after you get rid of the evil spirits, you Willing to give each of us a piece of mahogany?"
Tao Zu didn't think so and said: "It's a little evil spirit, one person can get rid of it, how can two people do it?"
"Peach trees grow on my body, just like your fingers, if one is missing, it will hurt, let alone two."
"Not to mention, I will be able to sell the old tree myself in two days. It is enough to take a piece of peach wood as a thank you for two days' delay."
"You can discuss it and see who will help."
Xiao Mu and Daoist Qingyan looked at each other when they heard the words, especially Daoist Qingyan, he thought that after getting rid of the evil spirits, everyone would get a piece of peach wood, but he didn't expect that there was only one piece in total.
The next moment, Daoist Qingyan couldn't help but said to Xiao Mu: "Mr. Mu, I must win the peach wood sword, how about you give it up?"
Xiao Mu didn't hesitate, "I'm sorry, Daoist, I'm bound to win the peach wood sword, so I'd better ask Daoist to give it up."
Daoist Qingyan's face was slightly annoyed, and he suppressed his anger, "Mr. Mu, the mahogany sword is very important to me, please make a concession, and there will be rewards in the future."
Xiao Mu shook his head and refused, "I'm sorry, Taomujian is also very important to me, so let's ask Dao's appearance to make a concession."
Daoist Qingyan's face darkened, and he snorted, "In this case, let's each use our own means to compete, and whoever wins the Taomu sword will belong to him."
Xiao Mu smiled coldly and started, he was really not afraid of this Qingyan Daoist.
Village head Hao hurriedly stood up, "You two masters, please stop arguing, it will hurt your peace."
"I don't think it's better than this. You go to the village with me to have a look, and then fight together. In the end, whoever gets rid of the evil spirits, how about I ask Taozu to give the peach tree to whom?"
