Jiu Chi said with enlightenment, "Maybe the reason why you don't leave here is because this place gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the effect of practicing here is better!"
Chaucer shook his head and said, "No, no, the aura of heaven and earth here can only be provided to junior practitioners. It is of great benefit to these mountain elves and tree monsters who have just begun to practice. But for an old man like me,
It’s of no use at all.”
Jiu Chi felt even more confused when he heard this, so he said, "Then why don't you leave here?"
The old man looked at the small tree opposite that was as tall as a person and said, "I am here to guard this tree. To be precise, I am here to guard the leaves on that tree."
Jiu Chi observed the small tree carefully, it was really special.
This small tree is a very upright small tree with golden light. It looks like a tree, but it is as short as a shrub. The leaves are more like gold leaves. Could it be a money tree?
Jiu Chi smiled and said to Chaucer, "My lord, I didn't expect you to be so greedy for money. You don't do anything all day long, you just guard a money tree."
The immortal looked aggrieved and said, "Seeing as you are a mortal, I might as well tell you that eating the leaves on this tree can greatly improve your cultivation."
Jiu Chi hesitated slightly when he heard the words, then smiled and said, "Can you give me a piece?"
When the immortal heard this, his head shook like a rattle.
Jiu Chi glanced at the small tree again and saw that the leaves were sparse and sparse. There were not many. Could it be that they were so rare and precious that the old man couldn't bear to part with them?
The immortal said leisurely, "Actually, it's not that I'm stingy, it's just that these leaves are useless to you."
Jiu Chi rubbed his nose and said, "Then what is the use of these leaves?"
Chaucer said solemnly, "This leaf only has an effect on the little monsters of the Zerg tribe. Only they can refine this leaf. I have been practicing here for thousands of years, and those little Zerg bastards always want to hit my leaves."
idea!"
Chaucer sighed and said, "This tree used to be very lush, but because they always came to steal food, now it has turned into such sparse leaves. I once used my thousand years of cultivation to teach them a lesson."
Once, I haven’t caused any trouble again recently.”
Jiu Chi listened for a long time before clearing his mind and nodded slightly.
At this moment, the cry of a child suddenly came. When Old Chaucer heard the sound, his face showed nervousness and panic.
Chaucer panicked and said, "Oh no, something must have happened to my grandson. I have to go over there and take a look. Boy, please help me guard this little tree first."
After finishing speaking, he left following the sound.
Jiu Chi shouted to Chaucer's back, "Immortal, don't worry, I will help you take care of this tree!"
Suddenly, several groups of green light flew from the sky, fell on the leaves of the small tree, and turned into insects like silkworms, quickly eating the leaves.
A bug said in a delicate female voice, "Brother, that old man has been fooled by us again!"
Another insect said in a clear male voice, "That old man has no cultivation, he is so stupid!"
Jiu Chi shouted angrily, "Shut up, or I will kill you all if you don't."
At this time, a bug said, "Why are you yelling? What benefits did the old man give you? Get out of the way if you don't want to die!"
The delicate female voice said again, "When I finish eating this leaf, I can transform into a human form, haha."
At this time, a bug said, "Junior sister, eat quickly and ignore him!"
Jiu Chi wanted to use Taoist methods to kill those insects but was afraid of knocking off the leaves, so he threw a rat-proof weapon and secretly complained in his heart.
Jiu Chi looked at the insect with the delicate female voice, and seemed to think of something. He suddenly quickly took action, picked up the insect with two fingers, and held it in the palm of his hand.
"Your little junior sister is in my hands, please leave quickly, or I will crush her to death!" Jiu Chi said with an evil smile.
Although I think it's a bit shameless to threaten these bugs like this, in this case, I have no choice but to take this approach.
The insect begged, "Brother, please let me go, I won't dare to do it again next time!" The voice sounded like a pitiful girl.
However, Jiu Chi didn't want to embarrass the little goblin. As long as all the insects flew away, he would let her go immediately.
At this time, all the leaf-eating bugs turned into beams of light and projected onto the ground, turning into a group of green-clad monsters.
The monsters roared angrily, "Put down my little junior sister quickly, or I will send you back to the west!"
Jiu Chi saw that although these monsters could speak human language, they had not yet fully transformed into human form. They must not be very high-minded, so he did not take their threatening words to heart at all.
At this moment, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in the palm of my hand, like a needle pricking into my heart. I suddenly felt a chill all over my body and I fainted.
When Jiu Chi woke up, the old face of Chaucer suddenly appeared in front of him.
Jiu Chi touched his groggy head and asked, "What did I just do?"
Chaucer squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "Poisoned by that insect!"
Only then did Jiu Chi think of what he had just done to catch the bugs, and he understood it instantly.
Looking at my hand that just caught the bug, it was already swollen like a steamed bun.
Jiu Chi pressed it with his finger, but it didn't hurt very much.
Chaucer smiled slightly and said, "I have forced the poison out of your body. As long as the swelling goes down, you will be fine, so you don't have to worry."
Chaucer paused and said, "Thank you just now. I can see that you are a very trustworthy person!"
Jiu Chi hurriedly said, "It's nothing, I didn't help you at all just now!"
Chaucer shook his head and said, "I said I didn't help. You were bitten by bugs. But I won't let anyone help me in vain. I want to give you a small gift."
As he spoke, Chaucer slowly took out a ring from his sleeve and stuffed it into Jiuchi's hand.
Chaucer smiled slightly and said, "Do you know what kind of ring this is?"
Jiu Chi shook his head blankly.
Chaucer chuckled and said, "This is the Liuhe Ring. The biggest function of this ring is space teleportation. You put on this ring and tell the direction and distance to it, and it can take you to the corresponding location. You can
Don’t you want to leave this place? With this ring, you can go to heaven and earth in the blink of an eye.”
Jiu Chi shied away, "Immortal, I can't accept such a precious gift from you."
Chaucer said sternly, "That little tree is my true body. You have helped me a lot. Just accept this little gift. I will become an immortal in a while. I will keep this thing."
It’s no use either.”
Jiuchi couldn't shirk it, so he had to accept it.
Jiu Chi bid farewell to Chaucer and continued in the forest to look for the whereabouts of Yue Xi, Taoist Tianyan and Taoist Shuguang.
At this time, he saw two bears in the forest, swaggering over, and Jiuchi hurriedly hid in the grass.
One of the bears said, "Brother, I heard that you caught a girl today. Is it true?"
The other bear sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, brother, I did catch a girl today. She is very beautiful. I have given her to our Black Tiger King first."
"Then brother, you have made great achievements, so what kind of reward do you get from the king?" one of the bears said.
"What a reward! It's all because that girl was so powerful, so a group of brothers surrounded her and captured her. I was almost stabbed to death by that girl's ice, but the leopard spirit took the lead!" Another bear said with a hint of emotion.
Sad and angry.
One of the bears said, "I heard that the Black Tiger King is planning to marry that girl."
Another bear said, "We're married! Why don't you just have fun and eat it!"
Jiu Chi's expression changed suddenly when he heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "Oops! Isn't Yuexi's situation in danger?"
