"That's... half an axe blade?" Guan Heng waved his hand, and the big villain immediately handed over the object. He checked it over and over again and found that the thing was half new and not old, but there was no trace of rust.

"Is someone left here not long ago? That guy may have also entered the cave in the middle of the cliff." Guan Heng's heart moved slightly: "I just don't know if this guy who abandoned the axe blade has anything to do with the disappearance of the ancient tree's spiritual root?"

...

At this moment, in the dark cave.

"Aowu!" The roaring monster fitted forward and slammed, "Bang--Crash!" The guy who was hit the move touched his back hard on the rock wall.

"Puff--" A blood arrow snatched the cavity. The man never expected that the monster he raised would inexplicably go wild and seriously injured himself.

"The Golden-bearded Weasel and I are both half-black. Once I get hurt, I will definitely not be its opponent."

"It is not suitable to stay here for a long time!" The man covered his wound and felt that several ribs had broken, and the ferocious beast in front of him had red eyes, completely losing his usual slavery and gentleness. So he turned around and ran away in panic and hastily.

"Huhu..." The nine-foot-long, fat and strong golden-bearded weasel did not chase after his injured owner, lowered his head and bit something on the ground, and ran towards the end of the cave.

"Pu." The injured person ran out more than ten feet, and his knees softened and he immediately knelt on the ground.

"Puff--" Another mouthful of black blood was spurted out, and the man's face was dark and pale, and he immediately fell into a state of silence and collapsed on the ground.

"Damn it, I shouldn't have been greedy for those rewards and came to the Guishan Mountain to steal the spiritual roots of ancient trees. I didn't expect that Lou Xiu would die here today." This man secretly regretted it. At this moment, a figure suddenly floated from a distance and landed in front of him.

"Uh?!" The shocked gaze in this man's eyes flashed, but the person opposite him said coldly: "Who are you?"

"I...I..." The person who came was Guan Heng. When he saw the other party's speech and his eyes dissipated, he knew that he was not a good person.

"Bang." Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed the man's neck and throat. Guan Heng shouted sternly: "Who are you? What is the purpose of coming to Guishan? The most important thing is that you stole the spiritual roots of the ancient tree on the top of the northern foothills?"

"Spirit root?! No, no, not me..." The man wanted to make a statement and make a quibble. Guan Heng suddenly closed his five fingers and made the other person's neck clatter. The guy's eyes immediately raised and his face was blue. He struggled and shouted, "Don't, don't kill me, I say...I'll say everything."

It turned out that this half-black man named Lou Xiu had received a well-paid task not long ago, which was to come to Guishan to steal the spiritual roots of the ancient tree at the peak of the northern foothills, and then take this spiritual root to be of other use.

Guan Heng repeatedly asked Lou Xiu about the employer's information, but Lou Xiu always insisted that he didn't know that he was sent by the employer to find him in a place near King Chong. The other party just paid half of the reward and assigned a task.

This is not the first time Lou Xiu has done this kind of thing, so the employer is not afraid that he will disappear.

"So, I brought the golden-bearded demon weasel I raised to the northern foot of the Guishan Mountain, and asked the demon weasel to dig the soil and dig the pit, and took away the tree roots." Hearing this, Guan Heng grabbed the collar of the other party and asked, "Why don't you go down the mountain immediately after stealing the spiritual roots of the ancient tree? What are you doing in the caves among the cliffs?"

"This..." A trace of cunning flashed in Lou Xiu's eyes. Guan Heng snorted coldly, and the next moment the ghosts' soul shadow suddenly appeared around.

"Half-black ghost?!" The moment he saw the other party, Lou Xiu was so scared that his legs shook and almost collapsed to the ground. Guan Heng said, "If you don't tell the truth in your mouth, I will let these treasures tear you apart and swallow you."

"No, I'll tell you all."

Lou Xiu shouted at this time: "The employer sent someone to send me a message saying that the spiritual energy of the ancient tree was excavated and the spiritual energy of the spiritual roots had long disappeared, but there was an inconspicuous cave among the cliffs of this Guishan Mountain. There was a spring in the stone depression at the end of the cave. It took half an hour to soak the spiritual roots before they could be taken out."

"My employer claims that the mountain springs in this cave have been formed for nearly a thousand years, and even the people of the Guishan Witch Clan do not know its existence. However, the water of the mountain spring is rich and it should restore some vitality to the spiritual roots of ancient trees."

When Lou Xiu said this, a hint of hatred suddenly appeared on his face. He continued to speak: "If I hadn't entered this damn hole, my demon weasel wouldn't have suddenly become irritable and fierce, and he would have hurt me and escaped. Even the ancient tree spiritual roots were taken away by this beast."

"Hmph, you are such a stupid thief." Guan Heng kicked the other party and said, "Go forward and take me to find the golden-bearded demon weasel. If you dare to play some tricks, don't blame me for being polite."

"Oh, yes, yes." Lou Xiu was injured and was afraid that those ghosts would kill him. At this time, he did not dare to disobey Guan Heng, so he staggered forward.

At this moment, the golden-bearded demon weasel that injured his master was running in the cave with a piece of ancient tree roots in his arms, but in the next moment, several black shadows surrounded the demon weasel, roaring and attacking fiercely.

"Swish--" A shadow suddenly rolled in the air, and its sharp claws held the wind and scratched the eagle's cheek.

"Jijiji!" The monster screamed in pain, and the tree roots in his mouth fell to the ground. Another black shadow rushed over and was about to snatch the object.

"Jijiji--" When the monster saw something coming to grab the roots, it was so angry that its eyes were so angry that it suddenly appeared that it rushed towards the guy snatching the roots of the tree regardless of the crazy attacks of several other black shadows.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, the other party was hit by the golden-bearded demon weasel head-on on the rock wall. In an instant, his soul disappeared. It turned out to be a demon soul in the light red realm.

"Puff--" The monster weasel used too much force and his head hit the rock wall, causing blood to burst, but the guy's eyes were red, and his face was full of crazy. "Puff." One front paw pressed the tree root, and the monster weasel roared wildly, scaring the rest of the soul shadows that knocked down were invisible and escaped without a trace.

"Tick, tick..." The blood on the demon weasel's forehead fell on the roots of the tree at this time, and some strange black spots suddenly appeared on the surface of the withered object.

Suddenly, a voice suddenly sounded: "Wow, Lou Xiu, you are really fierce."

"Uh, don't joke, okay?" Lou Xiu next to him said, "I have raised this beast for more than ten years, and I have never treated it badly. I didn't expect that this guy is rebellious today and is simply a bastard."

"Hehe, I'm afraid you misunderstood this weasel." Guan Heng sneered: "Looking at its eyes that are strangely red, and it also sways past the faint green from time to time. It is obvious that it has been controlled by some ghosts, and now it is involuntary."
