In the hollow, the spring water gurgled, and the clear water flowed from the spring hole and flowed through the roots of the withered apricot saplings.

Lu Yiming leaned over and looked.

Beside the land where the withered apricot saplings were, there were many mottled black marks, I don’t know what they were.

"Everyone, let's take a look."

Bai Qianqian first put some object left on the ground back into her sleeve, and then walked in. She stretched out her white and tender wrist, and scratched her wrist with her sharp fingernails. Bright red blood suddenly poured out and dripped on it.

On an apricot sapling.

Lu Yiming asked in astonishment: "What are you doing?"

Bai Qianqian turned around and said with a pale smile:

"This is what Qianqian said about ten years of hard work. Feeding the dead apricot tree seedlings with essence and blood every other week. When the dead seedlings sprout, Zitan will be truly rescued."

Ling Xi's expression changed slightly.

Feeding with sperm and blood?

Even if it is once a week and the amount is not large, it is still very harmful to the body.

Is this the real reason why this snake demon's power is unstable?

Bai Qianqian let the blood on her wrist drip onto the dry seedlings and land below.

Lu Yiming realized what those black marks were.

That is the color of the blood deposited by Bai Qianqian over the years.

After about a minute, Bai Qianqian turned her head and bathed her hands in the water. The wounds on her wrists healed quickly and soon returned to their smooth and delicate appearance.

She spoke slowly and continued:

"Back then, I was attacked by a red-eyed pig demon. The inscription on the transformation path was broken. I was seriously injured and dying. I escaped to the top of Motu Cliff."

"You already know what happened next. Zitan saved me, and I have been living here since then, thinking that one day I can reincarnate and see him again."

Ling Xi said aloud: "After a fairy fails to transform, it will be impossible to transform again within a few decades, unless there are some precious treasures from heaven and earth."

"Yes."

Bai Qianqian agreed, "It took me more than two years to realize that I would never have the chance to become a human again."

"However, that was before the spring water appeared. Originally there was no spring water here."

A gust of cold wind blew by, causing the hair on Lu Yiming's already dry back to stand up.

Lu Yiming asked hoarsely: "Did this spring appear on August 8, 2014?"

Bai Qianqian was a little surprised and said: "How do you know? The time is indeed 2014, but I don't know the specific time. I had not yet come into contact with humans at that time."

"Anyway, that's it. One day I woke up and found that the water flowing out of the spring here was different from before. By drinking this spring water, all my injuries were healed, and in the next five or six short years,

, I completed the transformation again."

Lu Yiming somewhat understood.

Were there many similar items in the accident that year?

He asked: "So you gave this spring water to Xu Zitan?"

Bai Qianqian said: "Zitan fell ill in 2016. He had acute leukemia. If he didn't get effective treatment, he might not live for more than half a year."

"That was the only way I could think of at the time, so I secretly brought spring water and sneaked into his room at night to give him a drink."

"After that, Zitan's illness did get better, but there was a drawback to this spring water."

"What's the disadvantage?"

Bai Qianqian smiled bitterly and said:

"Once you leave Xifeng Village for more than two days, the healing effect of the spring water Zitan drank will fade away quickly. The same goes for me. Once I leave here for too long, my transformation will not be stable."

"What this spring water has given you seems to be a false dream. Without it, everything you gain will shatter like a bubble. Moreover, the effect of this spring water has been getting shorter and shorter recently."

"I know about the spring water issue."

Lu Yiming looked at the withered sapling, "What do you mean when you say that when the dead tree comes into spring, Xu Zitan will be truly rescued?"

"It was half a month after I saved Zitan with spring water. A wandering Taoist found me. He seemed to know what I had done."

Bai Qianqian squatted down, ignoring the white dress falling into the spring water, and gently caressed the branches of the withered apricot sapling with her fingers.

"He said that what I did was just treating the symptoms and not the root cause. Sooner or later everything will return to the way it was before and it will get worse. If I want to really save people, then try to use this spell."

"The name of this spell is [Dead Tree Rejuvenates Spring]. Spring water cannot bring dead creatures back to life. But if one day I can use my own blood and this spring water to regenerate this dead apricot tree sapling, I may be able to completely control this spring water.

Let all things revive, and Zitan will be able to truly get better."

Lu Yiming was confused when he heard this, "Wait a minute, who is the Taoist you are talking about? Could it be Master Ye Zhiqiu?"

"Master Ye Zhiqiu? Haha."

Bai Qianqian disdained and sneered:

"That Ye Zhiqiu is just a complete liar. He defrauded Zitan's family of 20,000 yuan back then, and he defrauded Zitan's family of 20,000 yuan again this time. In fact, he has no ability at all. If my mother hadn't recognized him, I would have thrown him out.

Already."

"When I think about the name of that wandering Taoist, his surname seems to be Ji, but I don't know his name."

"Everyone!"

Bai Qianqian suddenly stood up and bowed deeply towards Lu Yiming and the others again.

"After Qianqian saves Zitan, she can guarantee that she will never appear next to Zitan again, and she can be used by you at will."

"Son..."

The little fox squeezed Lu Yiming's hand.

Lu Yiming lowered his head and saw a trace of emotion in the girl's red eyes.

The little fox's hostility to the snake demon has basically disappeared.

After all, this white snake has no idea about Lu Yiming, unlike the green snake, whose mind is full of pornographic waste and thinks about having fun in bed with a man all day long.

Lu Yiming was silent for a moment and couldn't help but sigh:

"No, do we look like this kind of bad guys who beat up mandarin ducks?"

He keeps a vixen himself, so what does it have to do with others raising a snake spirit?

After all, he is not from the Administration Bureau. The only person from the Administration Bureau present is still doing nothing.

Bai Qianqian raised her head and said in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Lu Yiming turned to look at Ling Xi, "Is that okay?"

"You'll handle it yourself this time."

Ling Xi shook her head and said, "I will not interfere in any decision you make."

Lu Yiming turned around and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you and Brother Zitan must prepare for the wedding tomorrow."

Bai Qianqian covered her mouth and burst into tears.

"Are you going home now? I'll treat you to a midnight snack."

"I stopped eating late night snacks and lost weight recently."

Lu Yiming and Xi smiled and took out a mineral water bottle from their bags: "Can I take some of the water here with me?"

"Please feel free to use it, but after the water here is taken out, it will be used for about 2 days. After 2 days, it will become ordinary water. There are some side effects of this water that you should pay attention to."

Lu Yiming asked: "What are the side effects?"

Bai Qianqian said in a low voice with some embarrassment: "It will cause people to have delusions similar to hallucinations, so it is best not to use it in front of others..."

"Oh." Lu Yiming said indifferently: "I don't drink anyway."

"..."

The little fox secretly wiped his lips.

She just tasted a little bit, should she be fine?

Lu Yiming took the mineral water bottle and filled the spring water, then took out his mobile phone to take many photos of the apricot saplings and spring water, before letting Ling Xi take them away from here.

During this period, the system prompts did not appear, and it seemed to be silent.

After Lu Yiming and the other three people left with the snake demon,

In the dark woods, Zhao Qiu smiled softly.

He actually liked this kid's character.

Last time at the clubhouse, I jumped off the 30m building without hesitation and launched a desperate attack on the old dragon.

This time I faced a little goblin and talked to him calmly, without that arrogant attitude.

"Meow~"
