Ghost daughter-in-law

"Grandpa Wood!" Called him Grandpa, the sweet-mouthed person can eat everywhere, "Why is there no firewood in the kitchen?" I asked.

"It's not in the kitchen, isn't it outside?" The old man's voice came from the master bedroom indistinctly.

Outside?Just now there was a dead tree outside, and there was nothing, did he want me to cut down that dead tree?

Suspicious, I slowly walked out of the door of the thatched cottage. The moment I looked up, I was stunned!

Chapter 5 Nineteen: The Iron Tree

I just saw that there is nothing but dead trees and thatched houses here, but what the hell is the woods that appear in front of my eyes now?

Not far from the door of the thatched cottage, there is a small forest standing at this moment. The trees in the forest are all dead trees. When I got closer, I realized that these trees seemed to be made by someone. The ones inserted into the ground are not like natural growth at all.

This is just too weird.

"Grandpa Mu, here... there is a forest!" I almost shouted incoherently into the thatched cottage.

"Isn't it better to have woods? You don't need to collect firewood, just chop it." Grandpa Mu's voice came from inside the thatched hut.

"But I don't have tools, how can I cut them!" I looked at the trees in the woods, all of them were as thick as my thighs, and I didn't have tools. Do I have to bite them with my teeth?

"Don't you have an ax under your feet? Why are you so careless, kid?" Grandpa Mu's tone was like an elder scolding a younger generation.

I heard that as soon as I lowered my head, I really saw an ax lying beside my feet. There was nothing there just now, I could see clearly, but why did an ax suddenly appear beside my feet?

Also, how did Grandpa Mu see the ax at my feet in the thatched hut?Could it be that Grandpa Mu really put it here, but I just overlooked it?

I picked up the ax suspiciously, observed it, and found that the ax was still very sharp, as if it was brand new.There's a lot of weirdness here, so I'd better be careful.

For this, the old man Grandpa Mu must know something. The most important thing now is to serve the old man well, then gain his trust, and then get some words out of his mouth.

After making up my mind, I took the ax and walked into the woods.

I have to say that the appearance of this forest is really unflattering. Except for the trees, there are not even a single weed on the ground. It's fine if there are no weeds, but it doesn't even have a leaf.All trees have only one template, which is exactly the same, even the texture of the bark is the same.

If someone tells me that this is a natural forest, I will definitely not kill him.

But although the weirdness is weird, what I urgently need now is firewood, to boil water with firewood, and then serve the old man well. I believe he will answer these weirdnesses for me.

So, I gritted my teeth, took a deep breath, picked up the ax and chopped down a tree next to me.With a ding, the ax struck the top of the tree, and there was a sound of metal collision.

The huge shock made my jaw go numb. Shocked in my heart, I put down the axe and took a look at the cut marks on the tree. I never expected that with such a great effort, the tree would turn out to be There is only one very small trace.

Dare to love this thing is harder than iron?

Because it was not far from the thatched hut, I raised my head and shouted inside, "Grandpa Mu, why is this tree so hard? I can't chop it down."

"If you can't cut it, just change it to another one! Haven't you learned to persevere?" Grandpa Mu's voice came faintly from inside the thatched hut.

As soon as I heard it, I thought to myself, "Forget it, the old man won't say anything anyway, so I'll just rely on myself!"

It's not that I haven't done chopping firewood before, but it's really the first time I've seen such a hard wood. This ax is enough to cut down a tree, right?

This is not counting the subsequent processing steps, such as splitting after being cut down, otherwise how can such a large piece of wood be burned?

Thinking about it, my scalp is really numb, but now I am trapped here, no matter how difficult it is, I have to persevere, since I am not dead, I can't give up.

So I picked up the ax again, and then found a tree again. With the lesson from the last time, I didn't dare to use too much strength this time.

Within my controllable range, I chopped down the tree. As I expected, there was a buzzing sound like a metal impact. I looked down, because the force I used this time was too small, so, There were hardly any traces on the tree.

What is this all about?Is it not the tree that is the problem, but the axe?I glanced at the seemingly sharp axe, feeling suspicious, and thought, "This old man is just embarrassing me, Fat Tiger."

Suddenly I had an idea, if this thing is wood, it must be burnt with fire, right?

Hehehe, I have the fire talisman in my hand.So I pulled out a few fire talismans, aimed at the top of the tree, and burned it fiercely. Not to mention, it burned very vigorously at first, but after a few fire talismans, I found that the top of the tree , except for some darkening, it is still unscathed.

It's too much, I give up, it won't work with fire attack... Hey!fire attack?What am I chopping wood for?To make a fire, don't I have a fire now?Why bother to chop wood?

I slapped myself hard on the head. Sometimes I really feel stupid, and even holding a fire talisman, I come to find firewood to boil water. How is this different from looking for a child with a child in my arms?

Looking at the ax lying beside me, and the tree with the black head, I laughed, but I was actually laughed at by myself, for being so stupid, no wonder I ended up here.

I sighed in my heart, then stood up, and went back to the thatched hut. As soon as I entered, the voice of the wooden old man came from the master bedroom, "Boy, have you cut the firewood?"

"No!" I replied as I walked into the kitchen.

"No? What are you doing back without you? Could it be that you can't bear to give up? You can't even handle a little firewood, can you?" Old Man Mu asked.

"I have a way to not use firewood!" I said confidently.If I didn’t have a soul-gathering lamp in the past, I would definitely not be able to boil a pot of water with my soul fire, but now that I have the continuous blessing of the soul-gathering lamp, the problem of exhaustion of the soul fire does not exist up.

Thinking in my heart, I put my hand into my small backpack, but when I touched it, it was empty.

"Where's my soul-gathering lamp?" At that moment, my heart was first surprised, then panic. Old man Ma was locked inside the soul-gathering lamp. If the soul-gathering lamp disappeared, what would old man Ma do?

And those five little guys, why did Xue Ningyu and I come in, but they didn't come in?

Panic suddenly spread in my heart. At that time, I thought, that old wooden man must know something. I will ask him to clarify the matter. Even if I put my hand on his neck this time, I will take it Find out the ins and outs of coming here by yourself.

But who knows, when I turned around, Mu Mu stood at the door of the kitchen, looking at me with a smile.

Chapter 5: A Flock of Annoying Crows

"I want to see how you can boil water without firewood." Old Mu smiled.

"I'm missing something!" I said quietly.The Soul Concentrating Lamp supported me to survive several dangerous situations, and Ma Zetian was still locked inside, its importance is self-evident.

"Oh? Something is missing? What is it?" Old Mu was still grinning.

"A very old-looking lamp, have you seen it?" Before I woke up, this old man might have done something to me. I am afraid that there are only him and me in this space, so the biggest suspect is him.

The most important thing to me is gone, so I can't help but not worry.

"I didn't see it! You don't have to doubt me. I haven't touched you since you came in!" Old Mu's smiling expression, at this moment, I feel that he is playing me and lying to me .

"Okay! I believe you, let's talk about how I got here?" I looked at the old man Mu closely.

"You have to ask yourself that!" Old Mu said calmly.

"Ask me? I just don't know, so I'm begging you. You keep evading it on purpose. Do you have any purpose and refuse to tell me?" At this moment, my guard is stronger than ever.

"Then let me tell you, I don't know either, do you believe it?" Old Mu said.

"I don't believe it!" I was already a little angry.

"If you don't believe me, what can I do? I can only tell you that the reason for coming here lies in yourself. If you want to go out, then you have to figure out where the reason is. It may also be you who went out. Opportunity!" The old man turned around as he said that, and walked towards his bedroom.

"It's the same as if you didn't say it, nonsense!" I looked at the old man's back and felt more uncomfortable than ever, but when he heard my words, the old man just shook his hand lightly, but didn't say a word.
