After the plot collapsed, the system unbinds from me

under the holy tree

This old lady is Lu Yang's grandmother, Lu Changqing.

Lu Changqing is probably more than 1000 years old, even in the long-lived monster clan, it is a long-lived existence.

"Good morning, both of you." Gu Yu greeted with a warm smile: "It's very good, the Linglu tribe is very hospitable and nice to speak, I like it very much."

"As long as you like it." Lu Zheng stroked his beard.

Gu Yu seemed to ask casually: "By the way, apart from crowning Lu Nuannuan and planting seedlings, is there any other celebration in the Holy Tree Festival?"

Lu Changqing laughed and said, "There is also the baptism of the holy tree and the bonfire party."

"Sacred tree baptism?" Gu Yu looked curious.

Lu Changqing explained: "Take the naturally fallen branches of the holy tree and wash them, soak them in the morning dew collected from the branches and leaves, and sprinkle them on the people of the tribe, implying the blessing of the holy tree and getting rid of all evil spirits."

"I see..." The corners of Gu Yu's mouth twitched.

He would not even be willing to participate in the baptism of the holy tree!

After all, the holy tree is now the source of infection!

Well, although it's a guess, Gu Yu thinks eight/nine are close to ten.

Whatever you want, just listen to Lu Zheng asking: "Do you two want to experience the baptism of the holy tree?"

"We're all outsiders, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate. But I've admired the sacred tree for a long time. It would be great if I could see the sacred tree up close." Gu Yu said casually.

Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows: "I'm afraid that won't work. The sacred tree is extremely important, and outsiders are not qualified to watch it up close."

"Oh, forget it." Gu Yu had expected it a long time ago, and when he heard this, he looked disappointed.

"It's not impossible? It's okay to ask someone to accompany you?" Lu Changqing said with a smile, "The ceremony is coming soon, and everyone is watching. Could it be that the two little friends will attack the sacred tree?"

"Yeah." Gu Yu felt guilty inside, and on the surface he agreed: "Attack to the holy tree? Hahaha! Am I impatient to live? If I do such a stupid thing, even if my father is Gu Chenyuan, I won't do it." Maybe he left the Spirit Deer Clan alive?"

"Indeed..." Lu Zheng was thoughtful.

He also didn't think Gu Yu and the others would do anything.

It's just that the rules of the Linglu Clan have always been like this.

He is not a rigid person in essence, so he said: "That's fine." He looked at Lu Changqing and said: "Where is your kid? Ask him to come and take them."

"Ahem, he's not in a good mood, and he doesn't know where he's gone." Lu Changqing's brows and eyes were full of helplessness.

Lu Zheng was speechless, and roughly guessed the reason.

not in a good mood?

I'm going to marry Lu Lingzhi soon, are you in a good mood?

Gu Yu secretly complained.

Just at this time, a gentle and familiar voice sounded: "Two elders, why don't you let me take them there."

It was Lu Yun who came.

"Don't you still have to preside over the ceremony?" Lu Zheng was slightly surprised.

Lu Yun curled his lips: "It's too difficult for me to handle such an important ceremony by myself, so let my father do it."

Lu Qiang was drinking next to him, but his face was still dark when he heard the words: "I need your charity?"

"Where is the father? The annual ceremonies these years have been presided over by my father. I have benefited a lot from being by your side. This time I personally performed the knife, and I felt the hardship and strength of my father." Lu Yun looked sincere.

Gu Yu was silently speechless.

High EQ!

Too good at talking!

No wonder it is so popular in the Linglu Clan!

Sure enough, from the corner of his eye, he saw Lu Zheng and Lu Changqing looking at Lu Yun with admiration.Lu Zheng said directly: "Letting our young patriarch entertain you to appreciate the sacred tree at a close distance, it is not neglecting the distinguished guests. Lu Qiang, please take over Lu Yun's affairs."

"Yes..." If Lu Yun's answer was high EQ, Lu Zheng would not be so tactful. The word "take over" can be said to have directly hurt Lu Qiang's self-esteem.However, according to the elder's order, no matter how dissatisfied Lu Qiang had, he could only bow his head unwillingly.

"Then let's go." Lu Yun smiled apologetically at Gu Yu.

Gu Yu found that Lu Yun was often apologizing, and he was apologizing for others.

The three said goodbye to Lu Zheng and Lu Changqing, and then walked towards the holy tree.

There were guards around the sacred tree, but they did not stop them when they saw Lu Yun and the others.

The sacred tree stands alone in the center of the square, only accompanied by the breeze.

Gu Yu stood still under the tree and raised his head.

The leaves rustled.

"How old is this Spirit Purifying Tree?" Gu Yu asked curiously.

"About more than 600 years." Lu Yun replied.

More than 600 years is indeed a long life for a spiritual plant.No, maybe it's rotting?

Gu Yu turned his head and asked, "The Linglu tribe can communicate with vegetation, so, have you communicated with sacred trees?"

"Only the saint can communicate with the holy tree." Lu Yun explained.

"Oh?" Gu Yu was thoughtful.

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder Lu Wuxia was able to find an opportunity to tamper with the holy tree.

"Then, can I touch the holy tree?" Gu Yu joked, "I can't participate in the baptism of the holy tree. Touching the holy tree should count as being blessed by the holy tree, right?"

Lu Yun didn't answer, but just looked at him meaningfully.

Gu Yu looked back without changing his expression, his expression calm.

After a while, Lu Yun nodded: "Yes."

Gu Yu silently breathed a sigh of relief.

"but--"

Gu Yu's heart suddenly lifted again.

That is, can you finish the sentence in one breath?Whose mentality is this playing?

"Just in case, I need to hold your hand." Lu Yun finally finished speaking.

"Of course." Gu Yu shrugged, but subconsciously glanced at Shen Yecang.

"Then you'll be offended." Lu Yun said this to Shen Yecang.He knows the "relationship" between Gu Yu and Shen Yecang, so "whether a man or a man can kiss each other" is also applicable here.

Shen Yecang didn't say anything.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yun grabbed Gu Yu's wrist and led him towards the sacred tree.

Rough to the touch.

A formation rune sank directly into the tree from Gu Yu's palm.

Well, Gu Yu almost took out the sword talisman that Gu Chenyuan gave him this time, and then Shen Yecang engraved a special formation on his palm, which can incorporate the sword talisman into the formation, and this formation law can be transmitted.That is to say, now the Spirit Purification Tree is engraved with a formation containing the sword talisman, as long as Shen Yecang activates the formation, the sword talisman will instantly explode and directly destroy the Spirit Purification Tree!

By doing so, firstly, it will give them a time to escape; secondly, even if they don’t plan to escape, they will have an excuse to justify themselves when they become the object of suspicion of the Linglu Clan; thirdly, both Gu Yu and Shen Yecang actually want to do it. The last oriole stood quietly at the end watching Lu Wuxia and Lu Yun come on stage.

Just thinking about it.An old female voice sounded.

"it hurts!"

Gu Yu was startled: "Who?"

"It hurts! Stop it!"

The old female voice continued.

Gu Yu looked at Lu Yun sharply.

Lu Yun looked complicated.

"Did you hear that?" Gu Yu asked.

Lu Yun forced a smile, and let go of Gu Yu's wrist: "What is Brother Gu talking about?"

"live--"

The sound stopped abruptly.

Gu Yu was stunned.

It is the ability of the Linglu tribe to communicate with vegetation!

Lu Yun obviously didn't touch the Spiritual Purification Tree, but through Gu Yu's hand, he still communicated with it!

What is the principle?

conduction?

Although he didn't understand the reason, Gu Yu was still shocked.

Then, he thought about it.

Lu Yun also said just now that only saintesses can communicate with the holy tree!But Lu Yun is not a saint, but he can also hear the voice of the holy tree, even Gu Yu, a half-demon.This shows that, in fact, the spirit deer tribe can actively communicate with the Spirit Purification Tree?It's just that this right is exclusively enjoyed by the saint?In order to reflect the nobility of the saint?

Well, that's not the point.

The point is, doesn't this mean that the strangeness of the holy tree is easy to detect?

So, have the elders noticed something wrong with the holy tree?

It doesn't look like it, otherwise Lu Zheng's expressions would not be so optimistic.

Gu Yu no longer allowed Lu Yun to be vague this time: "Young Patriarch, you should have known something a long time ago, right? For example... the Spirit Purification Tree is dying soon? Don't argue, I heard it screaming for pain. And it said stop, who did it say to? Did someone do something to it? This person is not... your mother, right? "

Lu Yun's pupils shrank suddenly, and he subconsciously looked at the guards around him.

Fortunately, the guards were far away, and this place was also restricted, so no outsiders could hear it.

Lu Yun breathed a sigh of relief silently, and turned to Gu Yu with a wry smile: "Brother Gu, this is not your business."

"We don't care, Lu Nuannuan will be sacrificed by you, right?" Gu Yu cut to the chase and sneered directly.

Lu Yun raised his forehead, not surprised, but said: "But you should also understand that my sister can't die."

"And then?" Gu Yu waved his hand: "Are we friends on the same front? Or enemies? Do you want to save your sister, or your clan?"

Shen Yecang at the side didn't stop him, and was quietly waiting for Lu Yun's answer.

Lu Yun sighed: "Of course we are friends on the same front. As I said before, I want to save both sides. This place is safe, so let me just say that I have my plan, and it is the best of both worlds."

"If you don't make it clear, I can't believe you."

Lu Yun smiled helplessly.

He looked up at the sky.

The sun is high, and there are laughter and laughter in the distance.

He murmured: "It's time...it should be almost there?"

about there?

What is going to start now?

Gu Yu was suspicious.

Lu Yun turned his head, looked at Gu Yu and Shen Yecang, and said seriously: "Yes, there is indeed something wrong with the holy tree. But it's not caused by the mother, but by the entire Linglu clan."

"What do you mean?" Gu Yu asked.

"The Spirit Purification Tree, as the name suggests, is to purify the impurities in the spiritual energy and the pollution in the soul. The Spirit Deer Clan rely on it to practice, and get twice the result with half the effort. Not only is the cultivation speed extremely fast, but also it will not produce any demons. Have you purified your demons?" Lu Yun obviously wasn't asking Gu Yu and Shen Yecang.

When Gu Yu heard this, he felt a little creepy.

Yes, did the Purifying Spirit Tree really purify the inner demons?

"Actually not, or in other words, only part of it can be purified." Lu Yun asked himself and answered: "Then where did the remaining demons that cannot be purified go?"

Gu Yu lost his mind: "Infectious disease?"

Lu Yun smiled without saying a word.
