Strange Tales of the Ghosts

The old master returned to the Land of Ten Thousand Trees and told Komori about the matter. After hearing this, Komori advised: "You must never do this. Aren't you ruining your own practice?"

"It shouldn't be a problem. It's only a hundred years. After Qiao Mei's hundred years, I can..."

"In these hundred years, there is no guarantee that the elders will not find out. When the elders find out, what will you do?"

"I've thought about it too, so I asked Brother Xiaomori for help."

Xiaomori is Old Master’s best brother in the Land of Ten Thousand Trees. If Xiaomori doesn’t help in this matter, Old Master will not be sure, so he told Xiaomori his detailed plan. The purpose is to let Xiaomori know when the elder comes to find him. procrastination. Komori felt embarrassed, but couldn't help the old master's persuasion, and finally agreed.

Five days later, Qiao Mei and Mu Yuanyang got married and lived a small life lovingly. The old woman saw that her granddaughter had someone to rely on and passed away soon after. Although this was sad, fortunately Qiao Mei had Mu Yuanyang. I also managed to hold on.

Seven years have passed. Qiao Mei and Mu Yuanyang have given birth to a son and a daughter. The son is named Mu Qingshan and the daughter is Mu Rulian. Mu Yuanyang seems to have forgotten that he is a tree spirit and enjoys the joy of having children around his knees. If not for that A strong wind blew one night, and perhaps such days could really last for a hundred years.

What is going to come will always come. Suddenly, a wind blew up one night, waking up Mu Yuanyang from his deep sleep. He could hear that it was Komori's voice. When he opened the door to look, he saw the leaves all over the yard. Humans may not be able to tell them apart, but Mu Yuanyang could not distinguish them. Yuan Yang can recognize it because the leaves of each tree are similar on the surface, but different. Mu Yuanyang knew that something big must have happened, otherwise Komori would not have come rashly, so he put on his clothes and hurried back to Wuhua Mountain, the Land of Ten Thousand Trees.

Seeing Xiao Sen, Mu Yuanyang hurriedly asked: "What happened? Brother Xiao Sen."

"Something bad has happened. The elder is eager to call you to take over." Komori said nervously, "The elder is waiting for you inside now."

"Why is it so sudden?"

"I don't know either. I just heard that a rich man died and wanted wood to make a coffin. As a result, he fell in love with the old master. The old master passed away this evening." Komori answered word for word.

Everyone knows that when a tree is cut down, it must grow into a tree again and practice cultivation again. Therefore, in the Tree Kingdom, in addition to the current old master, there will also be a backup old master. This backup is none other than the little old master Mu Yuanyang. .

After hearing this, Mu Yuanyang was worried: "What should I do, Qiao Mei..."

"When has it been? Are you still thinking about Sister Qiao? In order to save her life, you have sacrificed your cultivation for so many years. Not to mention whether the Elders will find out that your cultivation has not improved. At this time, if you don't continue You, the elders will definitely find out about you and Qiao Mei. When the time comes, even if the elders love you no matter how much they love you, they will be unable to do anything. Under the public anger, you will be punished according to the national law!" Xiaomori advised.

It's not that Mu Yuanyang doesn't know, he just can't let go. He can't let go of the woodcutter sister and her two children. After falling into the world, he has been tied down by worldly affairs and has second thoughts. He hesitates. At this moment, there is a rustling behind him. . Mu Yuanyang looked back and saw that someone seemed to be running after him. The person ran very fast, but Mu Yuanyang still caught up with him. At first glance, it was Qiao Mei who was hiding in the grass. Seeing that she had been exposed, Qiao Mei stood up and looked at Mu Yuanyang with red eyes.

"Are you a monster?"

"No." Mu Yuanyang shook his head, but he didn't expect the woodcutter girl to follow him into the Land of Ten Thousand Trees.

Tears flowed from the woodcutter girl's eyes, and she asked in a tearful voice, "You said you are not a monster, but why can you talk to trees?"

Mu Yuanyang looked at the woodcutter girl and knew that he couldn't hide it, so he replied: "I am a tree spirit from the Land of Ten Thousand Trees, not a monster."

"Whether it's a tree spirit or a monster, do you want to harm me?"

"No." Mu Yuanyang shook his head.

The woodcutter girl looked at Mu Yuanyang sadly, trembling all over. She didn't know whether it was fear or sadness, and asked, "In that case, why do you want to marry me?"

"I did it because..."

"Stop talking, shemales are different. No matter why you are here, don't come back." After the woodcutter girl finished speaking, she ran down the mountain crying.

Mu Yuanyang wanted to chase her, but Xiaosen came over and stopped him in front of Mu Yuanyang: "Since she has discovered it, stop chasing her and go see the elder as soon as possible."

"Brother Xiaomori, I..."

"Whether it's for me or for the Country of Ten Thousand Trees, hurry back and take over the throne, otherwise the Country of Ten Thousand Trees will be in catastrophe."

"I'll go right away."

Mu Yuanyang could only nod. He understood that if the successor old master did not succeed within five hours of his predecessor Yuanxiu, the tree kingdom would be unbalanced. At that time, the tree spirits would run around and if humans discovered it, there would be disaster.

Returning to the Land of Ten Thousand Trees, the elders performed a ceremony for Mu Yuanyang, and sealed Mu Yuanyang as the new and old master of the Land of Ten Thousand Trees. Suddenly, the noisy and divided Kingdom of Ten Thousand Trees became quiet, because the new and old masters inherited the legacy of the previous old master. After absorbing energy, he can subdue all the disobedient tree spirits, and the tree spirits have to be obedient. This is the highest honor for the tree spirits in the Land of Ten Thousand Trees, but this does not make Mu Yuanyang happy. When the tree spirits chanted Old Master, Mu Yuanyang's heart was cold.

The ceremony of conferring the title of Old Master lasted for three days and three nights. When Mu Yuanyang had time to go back to visit the woodcutter sister and her two children, he found that the building was empty. The hut was empty, not even a piece of clothing was left. Mu Yuanyang knew that the woodcutter sister must have left with the child, and felt very sad.

This sadness lasted for twenty years, until the county magistrate named Mu took office. The old master heard the people who went up the mountain to cut firewood talking, saying that the new county magistrate was only twenty-six years old, and he used to live at the foot of Wuhua Mountain. Mu Yuanyang was then I was shocked, thinking that it could be...counting the days, it happened to be

At this age, I feel happy.

Xiaomori went to visit and saw the old master smiling, and asked curiously: "Why are you so happy?"

"you guess."

"I think you must have heard something." Xiao Sen glanced at the old master.

The old master turned to look at Xiaomori and asked, "Have you known this for a long time?"

"It's not too early. It's one day earlier than you. I heard about it yesterday."

"That's it." The old master breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were different people, they were still related by blood. There was no reason to be unhappy when he learned that his son was back.

Komori understood the old master's mood and had to pour cold water on him: "Don't forget, you are now the old master of the land of thousands of trees, and you can't do anything wrong."

"If I don't tell you, if you don't tell me, who will know?"

"I think you should teach other tree spirits..." Xiaomori looked at the proud old master coldly.

The old master is silent, teaching others, but unable to cultivate himself, how can he be convinced? He really couldn't let other tree spirits know about this, so he suddenly calmed down a lot.
