Chapter 8 A Condition(1/2)

"You're talking?"

When Bai Zao heard He You ask this, she was stunned for a moment and was a little confused.

I thought I didn't say anything.

But immediately, she realized that the other party was not talking to her.

He seemed to be talking to the guard tree demon.

This discovery made Bai Zao's eyes widen, and his mouth under the mask stretched into an O-shaped shape. After all, it is rare to have a secret method that can talk to monsters.

Therefore, she did not completely believe it, thinking to herself whether it was this senior brother trying to negotiate with the enemy...

Well, this tree demon has killed several heretic monks, so it is not easy to reason...

However, these doubts lasted only for a moment.

The next second, she was surprised to see that the "red clouds" covered with peach blossoms covered on the heads of the two people trembled, and a low sound of wind pressure was transmitted from the depths of the clouds and mists.

It's like...responding.

And the pressure in the air that made her suffocate and tremble quietly faded a lot...

"It...you..."

Bai Zao was stunned and asked blankly:

"It's responding to you?"

Well, such a powerful tree monster is probably not far from transforming, so it is very normal to be able to understand human language.

"kindness."

He You nodded and gave an affirmative reply.

At the same time, under his calm expression, his heart had already rippled.

It was amazing, but it didn't seem very surprising.

If the guard tree demon was just determined to kill all the invaders, then they should have died the moment they fell into this valley.

There is no reason and the two of them are allowed to get up slowly.

This is unreasonable.

Unless the other party consciously wants to play with prey or has other ideas, no matter which possibility it is, it means that this tree demon has extraordinary intelligence.

And after the other party used the method of shocking the air to ask the sentence "Can you understand me?", he finally had no doubts about this.

I have to admit that this scene was something He You had never seen before in his eighteen years old.

In his past experience, almost all plants rarely speak, mostly silent.

Occasionally noisy, it is also humming and incoherent words.

He had never seen such a smart tree.

Faced with his questions, the tree demon also readily admitted it and expressed a considerable degree of surprise and joy, as if extremely surprised.

That feeling...is complicated to say.

It’s like a person who has been trapped on an isolated island for many years and finally found a traveler to talk to.

For some reason, He You suddenly felt that the other party probably had no malice.

At least, this is true for yourself.

"Sorry, we didn't mean to break in..."

After coming to his senses, He You pulled the blank white date behind him, then looked up at the flower branch and explained sincerely.

These are obviously true words, so his tone is very sincere.

However, the white dates became increasingly confused.

In the education she received, this kind of guard standing at the core of the entire defensive magic circle has always been cruel.

Especially monsters, they are even more cruel by nature.

Except for the owner of the secret realm who tamed it, the rest of the people were afraid that they could not make any sense.

This is not just her own idea, but the common understanding of all practitioners who have received basic education.

Therefore, her first thought was to draw the sword, and she knew it was invincible, but she did not try any other way.

I think those dead heretics and monks should have had similar thoughts. The moment they saw this tree demon, they attacked and tried to break through the siege, but were shot dead here.

This is the normal logic.

In her opinion, even if He You has some secret method to communicate with the other party, it will not be of any use.

However, the next scene slightly subverted her thoughts.

“Swishy…”

The red clouds of peach blossoms above my head shook again, making a sound, as if responding, the branches swayed gently, and a few peach blossoms fell down.

He You listened and spoke again.

So Huazhi responded again.

It's like really having a serious conversation.

Bai Zao looked at it blankly, and after a while, she finally came to her senses and saw that the strange conversation had temporarily stopped.

“What did it… say?”

She swallowed and spitted, she looked at He You like help.

The latter seemed to be thinking down, and turned around when he heard her inquiry, frowned, and said:

"It said that it could let us go once, but it needs to agree to a condition."

"Really?" Bai Zao asked in disbelief.

This completely involves her blind spot in knowledge.

After all, it was the first time she had encountered a creature like a guard tree demon, but why was this different from what the elders in the family said?

Could it be that the owner of the Secret Realm has long been dead?

Baizao had countless thoughts in her mind, and then suddenly realized a serious problem:

“What conditions?”

I think... it must be a very expensive condition, right?

However, when He You's face became even more weird when he heard this question. He glanced at the floating Hongyun and explained:

“It said…it hasn’t thought about it yet.”

Bai Zao's eyes widened, feeling that the things she encountered in the past ten years were not as bizarre as they are today.

What does it mean to have not been thought about?

Well... But speaking of this kind of casual style does indeed fit the style of monsters.

Being straightforward, eccentric.

If you are happy, you will be happy, and if you are angry, you will be killed.

But... this sentence clearly makes no sense. Could it be that you have to wait here for it to figure it out slowly?

He You also had the same doubts, so he looked up at the red cloud covered with peach blossoms and expressed similar questions.

“Swishy…”

The branches trembled, as if they were saying something.

Baizao looked anxious and asked, "What did it say?"

"It said...it can let us go first, and then ask for it after coming up with conditions."

He You replied.

Bai Zao was stunned. Unlike He You, who had no idea about cultivating immortals, she naturally understood the hidden meaning of this sentence.

Logically speaking, a tree demon cannot leave the secret realm.

People move to live, trees move to die.

Except for one special case: transformation.

Could it be that this guardian tree demon is about to transform into a successful person?

This seems to be the greatest possibility.

As for why I am willing to let go, this is not difficult to understand.

Perhaps it was because someone was finally happy to talk to it, so they didn't want to kill it. The Masterless Secret Realm often cannot last for too long. As long as they lasted until the Secret Realm was closed, they would naturally be returned to Earth.

This tree demon could not stop it.

Since you can't force yourself to stay and don't want to kill you, then going with the flow has become an easy choice.
To be continued...
