Zhan Zhao looked in the direction that Bai Yutang pointed him to look, and saw a few people wearing the same clothes at the entrance of an alley in the distance who seemed to be looking at them. When he saw them, he immediately turned around and entered the alley.

Zhan Zhao dodged and appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Suoli had just come out of Taibai Residence and was picking his teeth. He felt that the food was very good. The red shadow in front of his eyes flashed and Zhan Zhao disappeared...

"Hey, why is this person flashing around? Could it be that there was lightning in his previous life?" After Suoli said this, he was still amused by himself, and stood there "hehehehe".

Bai Yutang took him to chase Zhan Zhao, and asked as he walked, "How long did it take you to travel from Demon Prison Island to Kaifeng City?"

Suoli looked at Bai Yutang and said nothing.

Fifth Master looked at him.

Suoli crossed his arms and asked, "The warden just asked me to listen to the little palace master, and he didn't say to listen to other people. Who are you?"

Bai Yutang glanced at him and said in his heart that I am the family member of your little palace master...

However, the Fifth Master is not a person who likes to talk. If Suoli doesn't want to say it, just say it. It's the same thing if Zhan Zhao asks later.

Seeing that Bai Yutang ignored him after asking, Suoli moved forward and poked his shoulder with a finger.

Fifth Master turned his head and continued to look at him.

Suoli said with a smile, "It's not difficult for me to answer!" As he said that, he tugged on the clothes he was wearing, "Do you want to try it on?"

Fifth Master silently turned around - forget it.

"I designed this set myself! It's very popular on Demon Prison Island. I even brought a lot of them over and planned to sell them in Kaifeng City!" Suoli discussed with Bai Yutang, "Can you try wearing it?

!”

Fifth Master glanced at him faintly - Are you still planning to sell it in Kaifeng City? Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death as a pervert?

"All the children on our island dance wearing this! It's very cute!" Suoli spared no effort in recommending his own clothes to Bai Yutang.

Fifth Master was stunned for a moment - a child wearing a dress to dance?

Inexplicably, there appeared in my mind the little fourth son dancing in this outfit...

The Fifth Master quickly shook his head. If this suit was not hung on the wall of Old Liu's house, Tuanzi would still be able to try it... Let's forget it for now!

When we walked into the alley, only Zhan Zhao was there, and those few people had disappeared.

Zhan Zhao was coming down from a courtyard wall. He came very quickly. There are only two possibilities for those people to disappear in such a short time. One is that they are hiding nearby, and the other is that they are very good at Qinggong and Shenfa.

soon.

Zhan Zhao searched the houses on both sides and found no one hiding, so there was only the second possibility left, which was that he was a master... at least he had high Qinggong.

Those people were wearing the same style of tan clothes. They were inconspicuous and it was hard to tell what they were doing.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other. Are they following them or following Suo Li?

"How long did it take you to get here from Demon Prison Island?" Zhan Zhao asked Suoli.

Suo Li scratched his head and thought for a while, "The sun rises and sets many times."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were speechless as they looked at this silly guy - are you going to be poetic or are you simply not good at counting?

"Is anyone following you on the road?" Zhan Zhao continued to ask.

"Following?" Suoli seemed to find this question funny, "We have so many masters, who dares to follow us without risking his life?"

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows and teased him, "Oh? There are so many masters, why did someone steal such a big tree?"

Suoli's face turned red, "That was stolen while we were not at home!"

"Aren't you jailers?" Zhan Zhao, as a public official, shook his head in disapproval, "The jailers actually went out together? They were simply leaving their posts without permission!"

"There are no prisoners to watch!" Suo Li stamped his feet anxiously.

"If there are no prisoners, then there are still trees." Zhan Zhao seriously doubted the professional ability of the jailer on Devil's Prison Island, "You can't even look at the trees but still look at the prisoners?"

In terms of talking nonsense, how could Suoli be better than Zhan Zhao? He was so angry that he groaned, turned around from Zhan Zhao to the Fifth Master, and followed the Fifth Master - the silent one was cuter! The little palace master and so on,

Not cute at all!

Bai Yutang has been confused since just now, "That gentian tree grows from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. It should be a big one, right?"

Soli nodded—it’s huge!

"How was it stolen? Was the whole tree uprooted?" Bai Yutang imagined the giant wisteria in his old house... That one is probably not as big as the gentian tree. How could it be stolen? Even if it was carried away, it would still be difficult.

It will take a lot of troops and horses.

Suoli crossed his arms and shook his head, "Who knows where to go... Anyway, it was stolen. When we came back, we found that half of the mountain was bare!"

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at Suoli helplessly - he himself was confused, so he had to find someone who understood.

…

"Yaoyao, the gentian tree should be very big, how can you steal it?"

At this moment, the fourth son was also asking Yao Changtian the same question.

The White Ghost King said, "The big gentian tree was already quite big when I looked at it. It should be bigger as it grows older. It is said that this tree can recognize people."

"Recognize the person?!" The fourth child was shocked for the second time. "Is it possible that they are like cats and dogs, and will follow them when they bark?"

The White Ghost King stared at Tuanzi, and suddenly wanted to see if Tuanzi had a bigger reaction, so he nodded, "Yes."

Sure enough, Tuanzi was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He put his hands on his head - is it true?! How is that possible?!

The White Ghost King felt that it was not him but his own sister who was teasing the fourth son right now, so he could only shake his head, "Of course not, where are the trees that can walk?"

"Huh..." Tuanzi breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest - he scared the baby to death!

"Then how do you say trees recognize people?" Xiao Sizi was curious.

"It's not easy to pick ordinary vines, right?" Yao Changtian asked.

"This is true. It will take root in the wall. If you pull hard, you can pull it off, but it is easy to break."

"But if you are the one who watered the green gentian with blood, you can easily pick off the green gentian." Yao Changtian said.

"Oh...so you're talking about recognizing someone..."

At this point, Tuanzi suddenly felt that something was wrong, and then he took a breath with a shocked look on his face, "Isn't that what the Eagle King poured water on? Didn't the Eagle King die long ago?!"

The White Ghost King nodded.

The fourth son was confused and tilted his head to look at the White Ghost King, "Who did that? A relative?"

"I don't know if it's useful if it's related by blood, but something with the blood of the Eagle King will do."

"Something with the blood of the Eagle King?"

"Vines always grow in disorder, and they need to be pruned or twisted vines straightened." Yao Changtian said, "There is a bone ruler on Demon Prison Island, about two feet long. It seems to be made of whale bone or elephant bone.

It is made, and there is a red blood stain on it, which was specially wiped by the Eagle King back then. When adjusting the gentian tree, the ruler is most useful."

"Oh..." The fourth son was still wondering, "Yaoyao, how come you know so well?"

Yao Changtian nodded, "No, back then He Wanfeng asked me to steal that ruler."

"Did you steal it?" The fourth child was still looking forward to it - can he see the real thing?

"I stole it out for a look and then put it back." Yao Changtian said, "It looks like a long, flattened bone."

"Then use it to repair gentian trees? Is it effective?"

"Indeed, there is." Yao Changtian nodded, "The root system of the gentian tree holding on to the stone wall was originally very strong, but as long as you poke it lightly with the bone, the root system of the vine will loosen, and it will loosen again if you move it.

Grow more."

"Is it so magical?" The fourth child almost wants to plant a gentian tree in the yard. It can be planted on the roof of Miao Miao Building and then grow from top to bottom.

It stands to reason that cats can also grow a tree! And if the ones grown by Yin Yin are so cute, the gentian fruits planted by cats may have cat ears, and strings of kitten heads hanging on Meow Meow Tower.

It’s fun! I just don’t know how much blood it will take...it will feel very painful...otherwise I’d better forget it...

"In my opinion."

While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the door of Lao Liu's house. The White Ghost King crossed the threshold and walked in, while continuing to chat with the fourth son, "If you use that ruler, then find two experts to carry one that is long and strong enough."

With an iron rod, you can steal the tree."

"Can two people steal it?" Xiao Sizi asked what to do.

Yao Changtian thought for a while, "Maybe three people are better. One person uses a bone ruler to loosen the vines holding on to the wall, and two masters roll the vines around the iron rods from the mountain to the bottom, and then carry them away.

.”

The fourth child thought about it and felt that it was indeed feasible.

…

Gongsun was coming out of the old Liu family's mansion, and several government servants followed him out carrying a box containing two jars of human heads soaked in wine.

Gongsun just made a general inspection and found that the two heads belonged to middle-aged men, one belonged to Lao Liu, and the other was probably the owner of the body found on the mountain, and his identity was still uncertain.

Gongsun also saw the paintings on the wall and the coconut shell coir raincoat. He took down the paintings one by one and prepared to take them back for study.

After Gongsun saw it just now, he was a little impressed with Lao Liu... Not to mention his purpose of painting these paintings, his paintings are indeed very good, especially in terms of the structure of the human body, which is very accurate.
