The remaining locust branches are like mice that have seen a cat and dare not approach them at will.
"Can you climb trees?" Ye Yiming asked me abruptly.
"Ah..." I was stunned for a few seconds before I came back to my senses. I hurriedly said, "Yes! I was very good at climbing trees when I was a child!"
This is really not bragging, buddy. If anyone in our country can’t climb trees, he or she would not dare to admit that he is a child from the countryside.
"That's good." Ye Yiming nodded, then took out a yellow talisman from his pocket and handed it to me, "This is the Taiyi talisman I drew with my own hands. You can take this talisman and climb up the tree, and then stick it on the tree."
You kid, I'll cover you!"
"But..." I hesitated for a moment, worried that Ye Yiming wouldn't be able to deal with those locust branches on his own.
Ye Yiming patted my shoulder, "Don't worry about me, I can handle it, but you have to be careful, that kid is very troublesome."
The situation is urgent now, and since Ye Yiming's attitude is so determined, I can't say anything else.
I took the yellow talisman handed to me by Ye Yiming and said, "Okay, then I'll go."
Ye Yiming nodded heavily to me and then watched me leave.
"Humph, I don't know whether to live or die!" Old man Zhang over there saw Ye Yiming and I starting to take action. He snorted coldly, and then started to take action too.
"Ah..." He lowered his head and recited another spell. The kid on the old locust tree immediately began to go crazy and let out miserable screams.
The kid waved his arm, and countless locust tree branches suddenly spread out like thick fog.
Ye Yiming took a step forward, and then waved the dagger he took out in his hand. All the locust tree branches began to move back. Ye Yiming raised the knife and cut the locust tree branches in half.
Watching this scene, I was a little shocked. These locust trees gave me the feeling that they knew how to recognize people, and they specially picked up soft persimmons like me and squeezed them. When they encountered strong ones like Ye Yiming, they seemed to have no choice.
I shook my head and put these thoughts to the back of my mind. Now is not the time to think about these things. The more important thing is to subdue that brat as soon as possible.
Ye Yiming entangled all the locust trees released by the little devil, which actually made me feel more relaxed. I reached the old locust tree easily.
I started to climb up along the thick trunk of the old locust tree. This old locust tree also had many branches. I quickly climbed to the top.
When I climbed to the highest point, I was so shocked that I almost fell down again.
I saw that kid staring at me with a pair of blood-red eyes. I had no mental preparation and was very frightened.
Only then did I realize that the little devil had not blended into the old locust tree, but that he was chained to the locust tree by a black chain.
Because the sky is dark now and our viewing angle is different, we saw it wrong before.
When the kid saw me, he grinned, showing a row of pale teeth.
Just when I was frightened, I heard the low voice of Old Man Zhang chanting a mantra from behind me.
As the sound of Old Man Zhang's chanting continued to echo around, the kid in front of me also began to change. His expression became more ferocious and he glared at me.
"Crash..." At this moment, the iron chain on the kid began to fall down.
The chains on the kid's body quickly fell to the ground. The kid's escape from the restraints was as dangerous as a tiger escaping from its cage.
He stared at me fiercely, like a tiger staring at its prey.
Although I have the Taiyi Talisman that Ye Yiming gave me in my hand, I still feel creepy when I look at the eager little devil in front of me.
"Jie Jie..." The kid tilted his head and grinned at me.
I mustered up the courage in my heart, then held on to the branches and slowly approached the little ghost.
Because I was worried about falling from the tree, I took every step carefully.
The kid was standing not far from me. He watched me jump and jumped to the tree trunk where I was standing. The trunk could not support the weight of the kid and me.
I just heard a "click", then my feet were empty, and the next second I fell to the ground.
I couldn't help the pain in my butt and struggled to stand up from the ground, but the kid was faster. As soon as I stood firm, I felt a pair of cold hands grabbing my neck.
I felt it was difficult to breathe, and the little ghost's hideous and terrifying face kept coming closer to me.
Then he looked at my neck, showed his pale teeth and was about to bite it off.
There was a panic in my heart, and then I reached for the backpack behind me. In panic, I grabbed the lightning mahogany sword that my grandfather gave me.
I felt happy, and then I clenched my mahogany sword and slashed at the kid who grabbed my neck.
"Ah..." I heard the kid let out a strange cry, then let go of my hand and stepped back.
After the kid took his hand away, I touched my chest and took a deep breath. I suddenly felt much more relaxed.
The kid stared at me closely, obviously afraid of the lightning-struck mahogany sword in my hand, and didn't dare to approach easily.
The lightning strike mahogany sword my grandpa gave me is indeed a good treasure, and I feel a lot more confident.
Then I held the Lightning Strike Peach Wood Sword tightly in one hand, and the Taiyi Talisman that Ye Yiming gave me in the other hand.
"Hehe..." I looked at the kid and smiled maliciously.
I ran forward a few steps, and the kid's face showed a look of fear, but Old Man Zhang recited the spell again, and together with the spell, the kid became fierce again.
I began to understand these things in my heart. Old man Zhang controlled the little ghost he raised through the spells he chanted.
I quickly took out another yellow talisman from my pocket, and then attached it to the lightning peach wood sword. I chanted the spell "Flame Flying Light Jade Girl, Thunder Thunder Fierce General, Fire Black Fire Horse, Fire Cloth Universe. Fire"
Lord Ling, burn evil spirits quickly, as quickly as the law orders!"
After I recited the incantation, I pointed towards the kid, and the yellow talisman on the peach wood sword immediately burned, and a fire snake emerged from the tip of the sword and sprayed on the kid's body.
"Ah..." The kid let out a series of strange screams, and then immediately went to fight the flames on his body. I took advantage of this opportunity to step forward and put the Taiyi Talisman in my hand on his body.
I put the Taiyi Talisman on the front and back of the kid's chest, and the kid was immediately frozen in place, motionless.
I touched the kid, but he didn't react at all. I let out a breath, thinking that I finally got rid of the kid.
I just put the Taiyi Talisman on the kid's body, and the locust tree branch wrapped around Ye Yiming on the other side was also retracted to the big tree.
"This...impossible, you actually got rid of this brat I raised so carefully!" Old Man Zhang stared angrily at the scene in front of him in disbelief.
