Gu Wenyu stared blankly at the young sapling. She looked embarrassed and asked with some uncertainty: "Um, do you know what bald scoop means?"
The sapling was only half a person tall. Its trunk tilted slightly backwards, as if it was looking up at Gu Wenyu.
"Ba... gourd..." The two leaves of the small sapling shook and continued to say in a milky voice.
"Yes, Bald Ladle." Gu Wenyu said, pointing to the sapling, and continued: "You are Bald Ladle."
When the little sapling saw Gu Wenyu pointing at him, the little leaf trembled and his words became much more coherent, but his voice was still like that of an unweaned child, "Bald ladle~ Bald ladle..."
Gu Wenyu looked at the sapling strangely and murmured in a low voice: "Do you like this name so much?"
"Bald gourd bald goop~" The sapling has begun to dig the soil, and it is ready to plant itself again.
The white-faced fox shook his tail and said in a funny way: "Stupid tree seems to only be able to speak these two words."
Gu Wenyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She asked the sapling that was digging the soil: "Badu, can you say anything else?"
The sapling immediately stopped digging, and the trunk tilted to one side, as if the little guy was thinking with its head tilted.
However, after being silent for a long time, the sapling still spit out only two bytes, "bald ladle bald ladle~"
Ah this...
Gu Wenyu seemed to see the light above his head: Congratulations on getting the talking sapling +1.
"..." Gu Wenyu was really speechless. This little tree could communicate simple words through spiritual links before. Why can't it speak now that it has a mouth?
"Bald ladle, bald ladle~" The young sapling continued to dig the soil hard.
"Badu?" Gu Wenyu called Tudu through the spiritual link.
A young voice immediately came back through the spiritual link: "Master."
Gu Wenyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was no problem with the mental connection. It must be that Bald Lao's body is special. Only the fifth grade has five senses. No one has taught the little guy how to speak before.
"Bald ladle bald ladle~" The young sapling stopped digging in the soil and looked at Gu Wenyu blankly, as if waiting for her next instruction.
"It's okay, you can continue digging the soil." Gu Wenyu waved his hand. This little guy looked more and more like a child laborer. Damn it, his guilt increased again.
"Bald scoop~" The little sapling did not doubt that he was there and continued digging in the soil.
Gu Wenyu called Lingyu and Huohuo, and the three of them checked the castle from top to bottom. They found nothing useful, let alone someone who could break the curse of the Frog Prince.
Huo Huo asked directly: "Master Wen Yu, do we want to wait here?"
At this time, Gu Wenyu didn't know who the owner of the castle was. She thought to herself that someone had planted a mark anyway, and it didn't make much difference whether he left or not. It was better to wait where he was.
"Let's rest here for a few days and wait for the owner of the house to come back." Gu Wenyu agreed. If she had known that the owner of the house was Irene, she would have taken a taxi and run away by now.
"Okay! Then I will take John to hunt." Huohuo looked very happy and claimed that he would take the little frog to hunt.
"Yeah." Gu Wenyu didn't say anything more, just nodded in agreement.
"Then I'll go for a walk around the area." The white-faced fox said and jumped onto the window sill, and was about to escape from the window.
"Xiao Bai!" Gu Wenyu was startled. Since the white-faced fox lived in her spiritual world, this was the first time that the white-faced fox left voluntarily, which made Gu Wenyu a little uncomfortable.
"Huh?" The white-faced fox turned his head and looked at Gu Wenyu with some confusion.
Gu Wenyu shook his head, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then waved his hand towards the white-faced fox! He said: "It's nothing, have fun."
"Hmph~" The white-faced fox flicked its tail and disappeared from the window.
Gu Wenyu suddenly felt a little confused. That was a living demon king. What could happen? If the white-faced fox really wanted to leave, Gu Wenyu would have no reason to stop her.
As the white-faced fox and Huohuo left, only Lingyu and Gu Wenyu were left in the castle.
Bald Scoop planted itself in the soil and looked at home in the yard. It seemed that there was no need to bring Bald Scoop indoors and just let it stay outside.
Ling Yu sat down on the dusty sofa, not intending to go out.
Gu Wenyu walked to Ling Yu and said softly: "Let me help you see the seal of the Mountain and River Map."
Lingyu:?
Gu Wenyu didn't wait for Ling Yu to respond. She stood on the sofa, put her hand on Ling Yu's forehead, and activated the power of the contract.
Lingyu immediately felt suppressed by the power of the contract, but he didn't dare to get angry, so he remained motionless in frustration.
Gu Wenyu tried to use the power of the contract to wear away the seal of the Mountain and River Map, but this had little effect, and it took a lot of soul power to loosen the seal again.
Although this method is cumbersome, it is effective at least. Lingyu also noticed Gu Wenyu's intention, and the anger in her heart gradually extinguished, and she just sat obediently.
In the next few days, Gu Wenyu helped Ling Yu intermittently to erase the seal of the Mountain and River Map bit by bit.
At the moment when the seal completely dissipated, the shackles that restrained the soul were suddenly released. Ling Yu felt the energy in his body, and the corners of his mouth rose crazily.
This was the first time Gu Wenyu saw an ecstatic expression on Ling Yu's face, and he felt a little dazed for a moment...
Is it possible that the seal not only unlocked the shackles that limited the realm? It also unlocked another personality of Ling Yu?
"Lingyu?" Gu Wenyu called tentatively.
Ling Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear and clean, and there was unconcealable joy in his eyes.
"Thank you, sir." For the first time, Lingyu sincerely thanked Gu Wenyu.
"Can I break through to the seventh level?" Gu Wenyu asked.
Ling Yu nodded happily, "Yes. We are only one step away from breaking through."
"Then you practice hard." Gu Wenyu was also happy for Lingyu. No matter how bad Lingyu's temper was, she was always one of her own. Lingyu's improvement in strength had only advantages and no disadvantages for Gu Wenyu.
…
Everyone stayed in the castle for a few more days, but the owner of the castle still didn't show up, but the white-faced fox came back.
"Little girl, I found something interesting." The white-faced fox said with rare enthusiasm.
"What is it?" Gu Wenyu immediately became interested. Something that even the white-faced fox found interesting must not be ordinary.
"It's a big tree that connects heaven and earth! The smell of that thing is very strange, I think you should go and have a look." The white-faced fox looked a little excited.
"The tree that connects heaven and earth?" Gu Wenyu muttered and repeated it. She seemed to have heard of this thing somewhere...
