Chapter 69 Chapter 5: Shadow of the Cold Pool

Lian Xing hurriedly stopped Xiao Longnv and said: "Long Er, you stay here, I can go by myself." Xiao Longnu said in a low voice: "But your injury..." Xiao Longnu looked at Lian Xing with a look of unbearable expression on her face, after all the palm on Lian Xing was bestowed by her grandfather. Lian Xing looked at the deep pool, then at the ancient locust tree beside the pool, and said in a deep voice, "Long Er, you'd better stay here and guard Brother Sima, I think this deep pool is weird." Xiao Longnv heard Lian Xing's serious voice, her tone became more dignified, she seemed to be very afraid of the deep pool, she felt strange, and asked, "What's so strange here?"

Xiao Longnv asked, her eyes couldn't help but look around, and finally her eyes fell on the lush ancient locust tree.The body of that ancient pagoda tree was crooked, and when its body was three feet up, it stretched out a branch, pointing obliquely at the deep pool. When Xiao Longnv looked at it, she couldn't help shivering.I saw that the trunk of this ancient locust tree went from bottom to top, until it reached three feet, there was a red blood line, which seemed to grow from the ancient locust tree. Seeing this, Xiao Longnv felt a chill in her heart, and raised her head to look at Lian Xing.

Lian Xing was also raising his head from the ancient locust tree, met Xiao Longnv's eyes, nodded, and said slowly: "Long Er, this ancient locust tree is a ghost-line locust tree." Xiao Longnv had also heard the name of Gui Xianhuai before, when Lian Xing said it, her heart still trembled, and said: "Is this Gui Xianhuai?" Lian Xing said in a deep voice: "That's right, this locust tree is the ghost-line locust tree." After a pause, Lian Xing said again: "Look, this locust tree grows against the sun, and the blood line is facing the deep pool."

Xiao Longnv wondered: "Yes, how can this be explained?" Lian Xing said in a deep voice: "This ghost-lined locust tree must have been buried alive with a corpse inside. The body's flesh and skin were sucked up by the locust tree, and the blood in it led to the meridians of the locust tree. And upwards, meandering up. The reason for facing this deep pool is because there is a magnetic force in this deep pool that can't stop attracting the locust tree and the corpses in the locust tree to the deep pool, so the branches of this ancient locust tree All of them stretch toward the deep pool. Not only that, even the blood veins of the corpses in this ancient locust tree also face toward the deep pool, so the blood line also extends upward toward the deep pool."

Lian Xing stretched out his hand, pointed to the ancient locust tree, and continued: "Look at this ghost-line locust tree, the corpse inside must have already turned into a mummy, and the flesh and skin have melted into this ancient locust tree. Not only that, Even the ghost of this corpse has been absorbed by the dark power of the deep pool and melted into the deep pool." Xiao Longnu murmured: "Ghost? Could it be that the ghost who caught my grandfather into the deep pool just now is the ghost of the corpse in the ancient locust tree?" A look of worry flashed across Lian Xing's face, and he said in a low voice: "That's right. Just now, I saw that the black shadow that captured your grandfather just now had no shadow under the sunlight. At that time, I wondered if it was this ancient locust tree. The spirit formed by the condensed yin energy of the tree."

Xiao Longnv felt a chill in her heart again, thinking that her grandfather was captured by the ghost of the corpse in the ancient locust tree, and must have died at the bottom of this deep pool at this moment, the blood in her head surged up for a while, and she was about to jump into the deep pool. Lian Xing hurriedly reached out to stop him, Xiao Longnv stomped her feet and said, "I want to go down and save my grandpa, so don't stop me." Lian Xing frowned and said, "Long Er, I'd better go down." Lian Xing was worried about the safety of the little dragon girl, and he was not willing to let the little dragon girl be in danger, so he immediately took out the rope of the flying tiger claw from his bag, tied one end of the flying tiger claw firmly to the locust tree, and the other end around his waist After fastening a loose button, he raised his head and said to Xiao Longnv: "Long Er, I'm going down, you stay here and watch the wind for me."

Xiao Longnu's heart warmed, he was so worried about his own safety, he was willing to go down to the deep pool to save his grandfather, his heart was filled with infinite gratitude. Lian Xing turned his head to look at Xiao Longnu, and said in his heart: In this life, I can give up my life for you, let alone take a look at the deep pool?
