The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Fang Yun took a closer look and saw that it was Nie Xiaoqian.

Fang Yun clenched his fists tightly and his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Then why does Grandma Dryad punish the female ghost? What happened?" A child asked in a low voice.

Fang Yun said slowly: "That female ghost once arranged a baby marriage with me, but after her death, her ashes were stolen by the tree demon for some reason and she was imprisoned as a ghost. Just yesterday, she came secretly and warned her not to get close to the tree demon. , I didn’t expect to be discovered.”

"What should you do?" Yan Chixia asked.

Fang Yun showed hesitation, but then said firmly: "The primary goal is to break out of Nan Ruolin. If we can save her, we will save her. If we can't, we will not save her."

Suddenly, the face of an elderly woman appeared on the surface of the giant tree, and she opened her mouth wide and let out a harsh laugh.

"Hahaha……"

Everyone was immediately alert. The scholars lowered their chest shields, while the students took out their swords, shields, bows and arrows. Only Fang Yun and Yan Chixia remained motionless.

"Xiaoqian, did you hear that? This is the Fang Lang you have been obsessed with! He even ignored you, your dead fiancée, for his own woman. Tell me, why did you go there last night! What for! Be honest and tell the truth Grandma, isn’t my slave good?”

Nie Xiaoqian lowered her head, her long hair covering her face, her body trembling slightly from the pain, and whispered: "Since I was promised to Fang Lang, I will be his person in life and his ghost in death, so naturally I have to help him!"

"Bloody maid!" Grandma Dryad was furious.

A tree root as thick as a person's waist popped up from the ground, and its slender root tip hit Nie Xiaoqian's body.

"Ah..." Nie Xiaoqian suddenly raised her head because of the pain and let out a miserable cry. A look of pain appeared on her face, and the light of her body became increasingly dim.

Fang Yun spoke with spring thunder and said: "They say that the dryad grandma is a shameless, cowardly old beast. Today I have seen it. Not only can she bully a weak female ghost, she even has the courage to fight alone with me." No, you will just cower behind the legs of a group of monsters and call yourself grandma."

"Hahaha... Mere provocations are useless to me! Xiaoqian, you may not know that your Fang Lang is not here to save you, but to save his mistress, a snake demon! Haha, in his heart, A snake demon is more important than you. How can I hand you over to him?"

"I...I am dead after all. Fang Lang is good no matter what." Nie Xiaoqian looked at Fang Yun from a distance with firm eyes.

"You bitch! Fang Yun, can you hear me? Xiaoqian has been so kind to you, and you still want to find that snake demon? Why not, you go and lure White Lady over, and you just need to give me half of her moon lotus. , I will leave Xiaoqian to you."

Fang Yun said: "Then why don't you come with us to Jinshan Academy, which is not within the scope of the temple, and you can completely save the White Snake. You saved her life, and she will definitely be willing to give the Moon Lotus to you."

"Do you think I'm a pig demon? When I go to Jinshan Academy, that old guy Cai Fahai will definitely kill me first! It seems that Xiaoqian is not in your eyes at all! Xiaoqian, have you seen it?"

Xiaoqian said softly: "Whatever Fang Lang does is good!"

Grandma Dryad laughed, the tree shook slightly and the leaves fell one after another.

"Fang Yun, compared to Xiaoqian, you are simply a heartless lover! Xiaoqian not only betrayed me for you, but she didn't even mention a word about you when I asked her about it! I didn't expect that she had already turned into a ghost. You are not even willing to show kindness and save her!"

Fang Yun looked at the tree demon grandma in the distance and said: "She could have been buried in peace, but what inferior thing imprisoned her ghost? She was supposed to be reincarnated, what beast forced her to harm people? The murderer is you, you Can’t mess with my heart!”

"I am a demon, but you are a scholar. If a scholar does not save his dead fiancée, then what is that but a heartless and heartless person?" A malicious smile appeared on the bark-condensed face of Grandma Dryad.

Fang Yun straightened his body and said: "Etiquette has its own size, and righteousness has its importance. Xiaoqian and I are in love, and White Snake and I are friends. I came here to save White Snake, so naturally I will not give up repaying White Snake because of Xiaoqian's love." You are just a monster, so you certainly don’t understand the kindness of our human race! I advise you to let Xiao Qian go, otherwise I will kill you when I leave Nan Ruolin and save White Snake!”

"Hahaha... You are just trying to kill me? What a big statement! If you can't escape from Nan Ruolin, I will eat you. If you can escape with Yan Chixia, then I will kill Xiaoqian first and then contact Those unfaithful literati have spread all over the world, saying that you betrayed your human fiancée for a demon clan and left your dead wife with no peace!"

"You are the one who killed her! Xiaoqian, I have a kindness to you, so I have to let go of your kindness. If I have a chance, I will come to save you. If you have even disappeared as a ghost, I will smash the tree demon grandma to pieces. Thousands of corpses to avenge you for having your soul imprisoned!" Fang Yun's voice was as decisive as the sound of a sword.

"Then I'll see how you escape from Banyue Gorge! How you get past my Wall of Ten Thousand Trees!"

Yan Chixia laughed and said: "Old witch, I have fought with you many times, and there is nothing I can do except take your tree roots. What method of yours is useful to me? Although there are many trees, I will kill them with my words and swords!"

"Let's kill it. After you finish cutting these trees, let's see how long you still have to lead people to escape!" Grandma Dryad shook her body, and she saw the soil on the ground within a hundred feet around her surging, and the dense tree roots were undulating in the soil, as if Huge earthworms were loosening the soil one after another, and the monsters were so frightened that they hurriedly lowered their heads.

Fang Yun said, "He's just a handsome tree demon. Today I'm going to let you see the power of my human race. Brother Yan, your verbal and verbal skills have reached the level of splitting the sky in the second level. Can you do me a small favor?"

"That's what you say."

"This tree demon guards Banyue Gorge, but its real power comes from the entire Nanruolin. As long as you dig a deep trench with your words, then plant branches with kerosene and light it, cutting off the connection between Nanruolin and Banyue Gorge, the tree will Yao Lao Lao’s strength has dropped by at least 20%.”

The old face on the giant tree trembled slightly, and the dryad grandmother was shocked and said angrily: "How do you know about me!"

"Guess." Fang Yun's mouth curved in a subtle arc.

"Okay! He is indeed a young hero!" Yan Chixia said, spitting out words and swords, and then she saw a white light and the ancient sword of talent fly out of his mouth, with a harsh whistling sound.

I saw the Ancient Sword of Talent flying into the soil, moving in the ground with a huge roar, and the soil surged upwards, and then was pushed away by the huge force, and scattered to both sides.

A large ditch one foot deep appeared in front of everyone, and it continued to lengthen.

Fang Yun said: "This place is only one mile wide. Brother Yan can dig it in less than half a quarter of an hour. You must quickly look for trees and other flammable objects."

"Yes!" Everyone ran backwards. There were many trees here, and it was extremely easy to fill holes. The smoke assassin formed by "Yi Shui Song" was the best woodcutter.

The branches of Grandma Dryad shook gently, her black trunk exuded a strong evil aura, and bursts of black mist spread outward from the crown of the tree.

"How could I fall for your trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain? You just want to force me to leave Banyue Gorge, and then escape with Yan Chixia! Even if I don't move here, even if I can't borrow strength from Nan Ruolin, you can't do anything to me!"

A bear demon general said: "Grandma, why don't we kill him?"

"Idiot! I can't take care of a place one mile away. If you kill her, won't it mean you are going to die? Who of you can restrain Yan Chixia!" Grandma Dryad roared loudly, and the old face on the tree trunk became even more terrifying.

"Little demon knows his mistake." Bear Demon General quickly admitted his mistake.

"Since this Fang Yun knows so much, I'm afraid he will attack me with fire. Hum, I'm afraid of fire, but at least it's the flames sung by the great bachelor's war poems. There's nothing he can do to me! Let them Work slowly, I have ten thousand big trees, enough for them to kill until dark! When it gets dark, they will be out of control!"

"Grandma's power is boundless." A dog demon general immediately flattered him loudly.

The other monsters all welcomed her, and the tree monster's branches shook slightly, very happy.

Not long after, Yan Chixia dug a ravine to completely separate Banyue Gorge and Nan Ruolin, and the ditch was already covered with branches and even whole trees.

As everyone stepped across the ravine, Fang Yun spilled some fire oil, and the entire ravine burned quickly. The flames shot out ten feet high, like a wall of fire that completely separated everyone from Nan Ruolin.

Fang Yun said: "The flames here burned out the life in the ravine and cut off part of the power of the tree demon. Next, we have to deal with these big trees."

Between Fang Yun and Dryad Grandma, plant ancient Nanruolin trees that look very ordinary. They also have black branches and gray leaves, but they are different from ordinary Nanruolin trees. The leaves of these tens of thousands of trees There is a trace of blood on the edges.

Suddenly, the tree demon grandma shook the tree crown violently, and cracks opened in the trunk of the ancient tree, forming a human-like face with eyes and mouth, and roared together.

Their tree roots shoot out from the ground, swaying and lashing like giant pythons, full of power, enough to break a large living person into pieces.

These tall ancient trees are like giant soldiers. Each tree is as high as four or five stories, full of huge oppressive force. Not to mention the human race, even the eyes of the demon soldiers and barbarians are full of awe.

Yan Chixia said: "The old witch has the ability to control trees. I was once trapped in an array of thousands of trees. These trees are extremely weird. Even if they are cut down, they will be restored in less than a hundred breaths. I have Hanlin Wenbao, so I can break through. , but it will be difficult for you.”

Fang Yun said: "These trees have the power of the tree demon grandma. Naturally, you cannot completely kill them with the ancient sword of talent. In fact, the solution is very simple. Add the power of literary courage to your ancient sword of talent to cut off the ancient trees." The vitality of the tree, such an ancient tree will take at least an hour to recover. "

"Who are you!" Grandma Dryad suddenly shouted loudly, her tone showing caution for the first time.

Those smart monsters subconsciously took a step back. They had followed Grandma Dryad for many years. Even people like Yan Chixia were not taken into consideration by Grandma Dryad, but this little young man did it!

"Guess again." Fang Yun said.

Yan Chixia laughed loudly and said: "I know now that you had expected me to help you solve this Ten Thousand Trees Array!" As she said that, she spoke out loud again.

The white light ancient sword tore through the air, flying like a spiritual snake, passing through one big tree after another.

Wherever the ancient sword of talent passed, all the big trees were broken and fell to the ground in rows.

The people behind Fang Yun cheered loudly, and their morale increased greatly.
