After listening to the explanation of the false phantom, it can be roughly summarized that the soul body of Si Ming is born because of itself, and the rise and fall are shared.

"Old man, how do you know so many things?"

"My old man understands that there is more than that, how about it, are you interested in worshipping me as a teacher? If you become my disciple, I can still save this woman who is destined for the soul body by the way. ”

Su Jinglan frowned frequently after listening to the old man's request. It seems that this old man has been calculating for a long time, and may have been planning to take himself as an apprentice since he sold him the key at the bazaar just now. After all, no one would take in apprentices on a whim.

"False Phantom, should I promise him this? I don't think he's as good as you. ”

The false phantom pondered for a moment, and said heavily, "In terms of strength, he is not necessarily stronger than me. But in terms of seniority, I may not really be able to compare to him. I already know who this person is. In this world, it's probably a good thing for you to follow him. ”

"So you mean I promise him?"

"Promise, why not. Before, the dean of the Red Hao Academy, Red Butterfly, said that she has to rely on you except for your safety. I can help you with some things, but I don't know much about the world. Of course, it's better to find a local backer. ”

"Ah, this. ”

Su Jinglan couldn't help but make a difficulty, he didn't have any opinion on finding a backer. But relying on apprentices to find backers, he is a little resistant. After all, he has been carefree since he was a child, and it is a bit too weird to suddenly have someone who has been pressing himself for a long time.

At this time, the old man looked at Su Jinglan with a look of embarrassment, thinking that Su Jinglan felt that his strength was not strong or that the conditions for opening were not good, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, I will promise you one more thing." Look at it!"

Then the old man untied a rag bag from his waist, and by listening to the rattling sound inside, he knew that it contained a lot of treasures.

I saw that the old man took out a rag after digging in this bag for a long time.

As soon as this thing appeared, the fake phantom was immediately shocked. Because this thing was so familiar to him, he could recognize it even if it turned to dust.

"Su Jinglan, promise him. This thing must be obtained. I think he must have something else!"

"What is this that makes you so excited, there are so many treasures in the bazaar that you don't really want to be excited. ”

"If those can be called treasures, then this is a supreme level treasure. Anyway, don't ask what it is, get it first. ”

So, under pressure, Su Jinglan could only agree to become this old man's apprentice.

Seeing that Su Jinglan agreed, the old man couldn't help but be a little surprised. Facing Su Jinglan, he asked, "Do you know what this thing is?"

Su Jinglan, who asked this question, was clueless. But he quickly reacted, "I don't know what it is, I just think that it must be important to you that you still have such a broken thing." ”

The old man looked at Su Jinglan and stared into Su Jinglan's eyes with his own eyes to verify whether he was lying, but it was obvious that the answer the old man got was no.

"Since you agreed, then you can take this thing. Forget about the apprenticeship or something, but I'm going to live in your house in the future. You don't have a problem with that. ”

Of course, Su Jinglan can't have an opinion, after all, if she drives her master out, won't it become a deception and destruction of the ancestors?

"You call Master first, and I'll listen. ”

Su Jinglan opened her mouth, and after holding it for a long time, she shouted at the old man, "Master!"

"Haha, good apprentice. ”

The old man laughed for a while, then squatted down and kept touching Zhao Lijin's face. said to Su Jinglan in a dull tone, "Boy, her situation is not very optimistic. ”

"I hope Master will save her. ”

"Salvation must be saved, but it depends on how to save it. She is the soul body of Si Ming, and the most powerful thing is, of course, the soul body, so the first way is to find a container and abandon her physical body into a soul body. Stay alive.

The other is to find a pure masculine person and exchange his body for himself. Don't think about what yin and yang neutralize, it's useless. You can only exchange masculine for feminine. A thorough exchange. ”

"What does it mean to have a thorough exchange?"

"Oh, why are you so stupid, the complete exchange is to have a daughter's soul but use a man's body. ”

"Master, you're not kidding me. ”

"Do you think I have the time to joke with you? After a day, you don't have a choice. ”

Su Jinglan lowered her head and looked at Zhao Lijin on the ground, not knowing what to do. After all, either choice is hard to accept. The most important thing is that Zhao Lijin himself did not participate in the decision. In case Su Jinglan makes a rash decision, things may not be easy to solve in the future.

At this time, the false phantom said to Su Jinglan, "I think you should choose the first one." How can a woman accept that she is a man?"

Su Jinglan actually felt that this method was the most suitable, but what he was afraid of was that Zhao Lijin would not adapt to the state of the soul body.

"Forget it, no matter. Transformed into a soul, I can still keep an eye on her movements. It's better than becoming a person who is not difficult to be a woman. ”

In the end, Su Jinglan decided to choose the first one.

"The first one, don't be fleshy!"

"It's decided?"

"Well, Master, you can do it. ”

The old man nodded, and then took out a small box from the rag bag, which was unpretentious and black, but carved with some different shades of patterns. Because it was pure black, Su Jinglan couldn't see it very clearly in the moonlight.

"Su Jinglan, this is their family's unique craft—soul gathering. Back then, Shanzun almost got stuck on this. ”

"Really, this thing is so powerful?"

Su Jinglan was very skeptical after listening to the words of the false phantom, after all, Shanzun's strength is obvious to all, such a small box can make Shanzun suffer? It's a bit unconvincing.

At this time, the old man kept holding the box in one hand, and pinched Zhao Lijin's face with the other hand to open her mouth. Then the two hands worked together, and a puff of lilac smoke suddenly floated out of the box in the old man's left hand and drifted towards Zhao Lijin's mouth.

Seeing this situation, Su Jinglan wanted to ask this old man what this thing was. But before he could open his mouth, he was stopped by a false phantom.

At this time, these purple smoke had already been inhaled into Zhao Lijin's body.

And then Su Jinglan saw that Zhao Lijin's feet began to rot and rout little by little. Then there are the legs, then the upper body, and then the head. Until the end, there was not even a single hair left.

At this time, the false phantom said: "The most powerful thing about this thing is that the process is irreversible. Once the rout begins, it can't be stopped. ”

"Is this thing so ruthless?"

Before Su Jinglan's words were finished, Zhao Lijin's figure unexpectedly appeared in front of Su Jinglan again. But there are some differences with Zhao Lijin just now. This Zhao Lijin's body has some white light.

"Okay, do you have any container to put her in?"

After Su Jinglan nodded, she mobilized the power of the underworld and Shanti and directly took Zhao Lijin in.

Seeing that Zhao Lijin was gone, the old man's eyelids raised slightly, and he said with a smile, "Not bad, boy, there is something on his body." It must be a high-level artifact that can hold souls. ”

Su Jinglan did not say that she was holding the underworld in her hand. Just smiled and nodded. Kind of answered the old man.

At this time, the old man pointed to Bao'er and said, "When I went, she was fading." It was probably because it hurt so much that I passed out. However, I examined her body and noticed that there was something unusual about her fading scales. Her scales have a lot of energy. ”

"Isn't it right to have a lot of energy? The defense of dragon scales is so high, so there should be a lot of energy. ”

"No, the dragon's energy shouldn't appear on the dragon scales, the reason why her dragon scales have high defense is due to her own structure. ”

"Then Master, what do you say is going on?"

"I think she's probably going to transform. ”

"Huh?"

"I'm not sure about this for now. Let's wait for a while. Now you can take her back first. I still have some things, I'll come back to you tomorrow. ”

After saying that, the figure of this old man disappeared directly. Not the slightest breath was left for Su Jinglan. Only the breeze by the riverside seemed to be trying to keep the old man's figure.

Back in the room, Su Jinglan settled Bao'er and entered the dungeon. At this time, Zhao Lijin had already woken up.

"Long time no see, Zhao Lijin. ”

"Smack!"

Who knew that Su Jinglan's words were not finished, Zhao Lijin directly slapped Su Jinglan in the face. immediately hugged Su Jinglan and cried.

"Why do you want to save me now!"

Su Jinglan was fanned inexplicably, and what she was asked was also inexplicable. But after thinking about the harm Zhao Lijin suffered in the underworld, he simply understood.

"Zhao Lijin, you calm down first. Now there is nothing to do, you are safe. ”

"Where is this, when can I go back to the police station?"

Su Jinglan scratched her head, and for a while, she didn't know how to explain this fantasy experience to her. But in the end, I decided to tell the truth.

You may not believe what I'm saying next, but it's true... ”

Not surprisingly, Zhao Lijin's face was full of incredulity after listening to Su Jinglan's words. But after looking around, she really couldn't find any reason not to accept it.

But when she knew that she could only survive in the way of a soul, her slightly calmer mood fluctuated again.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I am the one who put you in danger. ”

Seeing Zhao Lijin crying, Su Jinglan didn't know what to say to comfort.

In fact, Rhubarb scared Zhao Lijin to death at the beginning, and it was very likely that it was the arrangement of Zhao Lijin's fate in this life, but Su Jinglan stepped in and forcibly changed Zhao Lijin's life, and she was bound to be responsible for her.

At this time, rhubarb also came. He also comforted Zhao Lijin. In the arms of rhubarb, Zhao Lijin's mood was obviously much calmer.

After a long time, Zhao Lijin finally calmed down. She accepted the fact that she had become a soul.

"Zhao Lijin, in fact, there is no need for you to be so sad at all. After becoming a soul, you will never die again. I can resurrect you without limit. ”

Zhao Lijin just hummed flatly, without much waves. Su Jinglan looked at Zhao Lijin and knew that she was not in a good mood now. I simply won't say anything more.

At this time, Su Jinglan looked at Rhubarb and said, "How is Tang Ke, has he adapted to the environment here?"

Rhubarb nodded and said, "Well, I was about to tell you about this, Tang Ke can accompany you outside now." But I don't know how. His strength seems to have dropped a lot. ”
