After raising a cub, I won by doing nothing

Chapter 836: Tree, crying?

"You follow us." Mu Xiaomin said to Mu Xiaoqi with a serious expression.

"Let me go ahead." Mu Xiaoqi tugged at Mu Xiaomin's sleeve, "Brother, I often deal with evil spirits, I'm not afraid."

Mu Xiaoye stretched out his hand and pinched Mu Xiaoqi's face, but he didn't use much force. He said to Mu Xiaoqi in a serious tone, "We know you are not afraid, but as your elder brothers, we naturally cannot let you go ahead."

Mu Xiaoqi couldn't persuade her two brothers, so she could only pout and follow them obediently.

The three little boys walked towards the village entrance together and came to the locust tree that Mu Xiaoqi mentioned.

This locust tree looks like it is dead, with a dark and dry trunk without any green embellishments.

It stands in the darkness, exuding a gloomy atmosphere.

"It's the scent from it that makes me feel like it's crying." Mu Xiaoqi said, pointing at the locust tree in front of him.

Tree, crying?

Mu Xiaomin and Mu Xiaoye frowned and examined the locust tree in front of them.

They knew that Xiaoqi had extraordinary senses in some aspects. He said that the tree was crying, so there must be something wrong with the tree.

"Little guy, can you hear me crying?" At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded in the night.

The three little guys were all frightened by the sudden sound.

The sound came from the locust tree in front.

Has this tree become a spirit?

Mu Xiaomin and Mu Xiaoye stepped forward at the same time and stood in front of Mu Xiaoqi.

"Are you talking?" Mu Xiaomin looked at the locust tree in front of him warily. A gust of cold wind blew over, and the old and sad voice continued to sound.

"Yes, after all these years, someone finally hears my voice."

Hearing the sadness in the old locust tree's tone, the three little guys couldn't help but let down their guard against the old locust tree.

Mu Xiaoqi walked out from behind Mu Xiaomin and Mu Xiaoye, slowly approached the old locust tree, and reached out to touch its branches.

"Why are you crying?"

"I was the first chief of Liuxing Village and was planted here six hundred years ago. Three hundred years after I became a spirit through cultivation, I have been silently guarding Liuxing Village here to prevent evil spirits from causing trouble. But now my roots have been hurt by the evil spirits and I can hardly protect myself, let alone Liuxing Village..." The old locust tree said, choking up again.

Mu Xiaoqi quickly and gently touched the old locust tree as a comfort.

"What kind of evil spirit hurt you?" Mu Xiaomin asked.

He felt that since the evil spirit could hurt the old locust tree, its power must be higher than the old locust tree and would be difficult to deal with.

The old locust tree didn't speak for a long time.

It seemed to realize belatedly that it was a little abnormal that these three children appeared here without any adult company at such a late hour.

Thinking of the power of the evil spirit, the old locust tree trembled and said to the three kids, "You'd better go home quickly and don't go out. Even if someone calls you, don't come out."

The three little guys heard what the old locust tree said, but they didn't plan to leave.

"We came out to find evil spirits, why should we go back?" Mu Xiaoqi asked the old locust tree with a confused and silly look on his face.

If the old locust tree had expressions, then its expression now would definitely be one of being neither amused nor sad.

These three little kids are so cute. They actually want to catch evil spirits?
The three of them with skinny arms and legs are not even enough to fill the gaps between the evil spirit's teeth!
