Chapter 637: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 9

"Since Xiaoqing is still alive, I will naturally ask Xiaoqing to deliver the letter to the Black Mountain Demon on my behalf."

If she wasn't a tree demon and couldn't leave her main body for too long, the tree demon grandma really wanted to go find the Black Mountain Demon herself. Not to mention that she could save the elixir, the sense of security she would feel would be much greater than staying here and being discovered by Ruyi by accident.

The next morning, Ruyi was still sleeping. After absorbing all the merits of killing the female ghost last night, she clearly felt that her cultivation had improved a lot. She had a hunch that at the current speed, she would soon be able to upgrade from a first-level fairy to a second, third, or even twelfth-level great perfection and become a god from a fairy.

The plot between the male and female protagonists in the next room last night unfolded as expected. After a night of sincere communication, Nie Xiaoqian completely entrusted her life to Ning Caichen. Not only that, she even told Ning Caichen her identity as a female ghost and how she became a female ghost.

Ning Caichen hugged the pitiful and fragile Nie Xiaoqian, and looked at her beautiful face full of sorrow and helplessness. He felt that his heart was filled with the desire to protect her. He patted Nie Xiaoqian's chest and assured her: "Xiaoqian, don't worry. Last night, in my heart, you have become my most beloved wife."

"As your husband, how can I sit back and watch you do nothing when my wife is being forced by a monster to live forever?"

"I'll go outside and find someone to help me kill the monster that harmed you!"

Nie Xiaoqian was deeply moved that he was still willing to believe in her and treat her as his wife even though he knew she was a female ghost.

Hearing her beloved husband say that he was going to find someone to kill the tree demon, Nie Xiaoqian blocked Ning Caichen's mouth in fear, "The tree demon's roots are all over the Lanruo Temple. It would be bad if he heard it."

"I don't want you to find someone to kill grandma. I just want you to go to the big locust tree in the back mountain, dig out my ashes, take them away, and find a place to bury them properly."

"Only in this way can I break away from grandma's control and live together with you." Nie Xiaoqian knew how powerful Ruyi was, and originally planned to use Ning Caichen to ask Ruyi to deal with grandma. But after an in-depth communication with Ning Caichen last night, Nie Xiaoqian realized that Ning Caichen and Ruyi were just passers-by and had no friendship at all.

In this case, we cannot expect Ning Caichen to be able to persuade Ruyi. Anyway, Nie Xiaoqian's wish is very simple, which is to get away from her grandmother and reincarnate as soon as possible.

Nie Xiaoqian's request was very clear. Although Ning Caichen was a little stubborn, he was not someone who would not listen to advice. So at noon, Ning Caichen followed Nie Xiaoqian's guidance and came to the tree where the tree demon grandma lived in the back mountain.

"It's the fourth urn from the left to the right under the locust tree in the shade. You can just dig it out and take it away."

"In the shaded direction, count the fourth one from left to right, one, two, three, four! Great, I found it!" Ning Caichen carefully followed Nie Xiaoqian's instructions and found what he wanted to dig. When he was digging hard, he felt someone patting his shoulder.

Ning Caichen didn't have time to deal with him, so he just waved his hand and said, "I'm very busy now, let's talk later if you have anything to say."

After rejecting the other party, the man still did not give up and kept patting Ning Caichen's shoulders. Ning Caichen felt that the force on his shoulders was getting stronger and stronger, and he immediately became angry.

"I've already told you that I'm very busy right now. Don't you understand what I'm saying?!!"

Ning Caichen turned around in annoyance, but found that there was no one behind him, nothing at all. At this moment, Ning Caichen suddenly remembered that Lanruo Temple was a haunted place with only female ghosts and monsters, so there was no living person.

Thinking of this, Ning Caichen suddenly felt a chill on his neck and back, as if something horrible was quietly looking at him from behind. He suppressed his fear and tentatively called out in a low voice, "Xiao Qian, is that you, Xiao Qian?"

"Xiaoqian?"

A voice that sounded like a man or a woman suddenly asked a question, and then said as if she understood something, "So you were called here by that bitch Nie Xiaoqian."

"Why, Nie Xiaoqian thought that I would watch you come and dig up her urn just because it's daytime? She is so naive."

The tree demon originally planned to turn a blind eye and let Ning Caichen go because he appeared in Lanruo Temple with Ruyi, and just scare him away with a vine.

But I didn't expect to hear Nie Xiaoqian's name from Ning Caichen. Since this person was sent by Nie Xiaoqian, grandma would naturally not let him go.

"How dare you betray me? I will send you to hell right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark vine suddenly shot out, wrapped around Ning Caichen's neck and hung him up. As the vine kept tightening, Ning Caichen, who was hanging in the air, felt a squeezing in his throat. He kicked his legs desperately trying to find support, and pulled the vine around his neck with both hands, but to no avail. He felt his eyes go dark and his chest was suffocating as if it was about to explode.

"Caichen!" At the critical moment, Nie Xiaoqian ignored the sunlight and rushed out to cut off the vines on Ning Caichen's neck. She then flew towards Lanruo Temple with the person in her arms, looking panicked.

Along the way, Nie Xiaoqian was illuminated by the sunlight shining through the gaps in the woods, and white smoke appeared from her soul from time to time. She endured the pain, brought Ning Caichen to Ruyi's room in one breath, and fainted on the ground.

Ning Caichen was thrown to the ground by Nie Xiaoqian. He ignored the pain in his body and immediately got up and ran towards Nie Xiaoqian. At this time, Nie Xiaoqian's soul had weakened a lot due to the erosion of yang energy.

"Xiao Qian, how are you, Xiao Qian!"

"Go find Song, Miss Song." After leaving this sentence, Nie Xiaoqian immediately disappeared in front of Ning Caichen. Ning Caichen had already been frightened by the sudden change in front of him. He knew nothing and could only grasp the words Nie Xiaoqian left before she disappeared. He rushed to Ruyi's room and knocked on the door desperately.

"Miss Song, Miss Song, open the door, something has happened, something serious has happened!"

Being woken up while practicing, Ruyi was in a very bad mood. She took back the RV with a sour face, opened the door, looked at the panicked Ning Caichen, and sighed helplessly: "Tell me, what happened?"

"Miss Song, there really is a monster in Lanruo Temple! No, that's not right. There is a female ghost in Lanruo Temple. There is a monster behind Lanruo Temple."

"I know, and besides, didn't I tell you a long time ago?" The current Ruyi is no longer the same Ruyi as before. She no longer cares about the plot and just gives these people some advice casually. They can listen if they want to, or not if they want to.

"No, it's not like that." Ning Caichen was speechless for a moment and didn't know where to start. Seeing Ruyi standing beside him very calmly, with no panic on her face at all, Ning Caichen himself gradually calmed down, and then he told her what happened between him and Nie Xiaoqian.

"Miss Song, Xiaoqian said you are not an ordinary person. I wonder if you can help us."

"Hmm..." To be honest, Ruyi had no objection to the unfinished love between Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian. It was not that he couldn't help. Anyway, he was here now, and of course he didn't want to miss out on the merits of the old locust tree.

But...where is Yan Chixia who was supposed to be here?
