The atmosphere in the secret room suddenly became tense. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The swordsman and the merchant's ghost stared at each other wide-eyed, neither of them moving.

Although the grasp of this trip has been greatly improved in his heart, when he really faces it, the swordsman is still very nervous. After all, it was the first time he had faced this kind of thing, and the other party was not a human being, a ghost who had been dead for many years.

And the ghost of the merchant probably just recovered from his confusion, and he didn't attack as soon as he came up.

The swordsman felt a drop of sweat drip down his forehead. Slowly glide onto the eyelashes, and it will flow into the eyes. The swordsman stared at the merchant's ghost as he gently raised his left hand to wipe away the sweat. The movement is very gentle, lest this action cause the opponent to attack.

However, what made him feel a little relieved was that there were a lot of charms drawn by Zhang Yu in his arms. These charms were the greatest reliance on his courage to come.

The rain painter is the peak cultivation of the foundation building period, and the ghost of this merchant has only been formed for less than two years, and at most it is equivalent to the acquired cultivation of human beings, even if he has devoured a lot of souls in recent years to strengthen himself. At best, if you die to death, you can reach the Qi refining stage of cultivation, right?

Holding the spell made at the peak of the foundation building period in his hand, the swordsman really didn't take this ghost too seriously.

"Who are you, how can you get into this secret room?"

Just as the swordsman's mind was in a hurry, the merchant's ghost suddenly spoke. The voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant.

"Huh?"

The swordsman was shocked, this ghost could still talk to him soberly?

"In the next swordsman, he was entrusted by Li Shanren to come... ”

The swordsman didn't know what to say next, could he have come to kill him? Wouldn't that be too straightforward? Although the ghost of the merchant looked a little evil, he never attacked him the whole time, and he didn't look like the most vicious person.

"Li Shanren, Li Shanren. ”

The merchant's ghost muttered twice. I didn't doubt the words of the swordsman.

"Shaoxia is talking about Lao Li, right? I didn't expect that after so long, he still remembers me, an old fellow. ”

The merchant's ghost bowed his head and sighed softly.

"Exactly, Li Shanren has never forgotten Your Excellency, and he is also very guilty about the things of the past, and he has always felt sorry for Your Excellency, and he is worried about it. He was very sick. ”

The swordsman said as he cautiously observed the reaction of the merchant's ghost. Seeing that he didn't want to hurt anyone, he cautiously went on.

"Li Shanren will ask Niu to dare to do more for Your Excellency and others every year. I hope you will be reincarnated as soon as possible and reincarnated as a human being, but why do you want to be obsessed with it, but instead worsen the lives of many residents of Jianye City?"

After speaking, the swordsman became more cautious. I was afraid that these words would annoy the ghost of the merchant.

"Lao Yu and Lao Li have been friends for many years, his character is old and trustworthy, how can the name of a good man be in vain?

The merchant's ghost seemed to be mired in deep memories and slowly spoke.

It turned out that the ghost of the merchant and Li Shanren had been orphans since they were children and grew up eating hundreds of family meals, so the two of them were determined to repay the villagers in the future. And in fact, they did. The two of them started from scratch and amassed a lot of wealth by trading between various regions. Most of this wealth is also used to help others in need.

Everything went smoothly. Until that time.

It was summer. The two purchased a large number of daily necessities and rare treasures in Aolai Country. Loaded on.

It was calm along the way, but just when you could already see the coast in the distance, disaster struck. Suddenly a strong wind blew on the sea, and waves crashed against their merchant ships in waves.

It was a huge wave they had never seen before, and eventually the ship sank. Only Li Shanren escaped with his own life.

"Alas, dozens of lives of the whole ship's men sank into the trench with this shipload of treasures. ”

At this point, the hoarse voice of the merchant's ghost was tinged with grief.

"Why, then, did Your Excellency kill so many innocent people?"

The swordsman asked puzzledly, since the ghost of the merchant had no hatred in his heart, how could so many things happen later?

"I didn't kill those people. Young man, listen to me and you'll find out. ”

The merchant's ghost did not answer, but continued to speak on his own.

After the ship sank, the merchant's ghost knew that there was no hope of escape, so he had to swim to the bottom of the ship and burrow into the secret chamber.

This chamber was specially built for the two of them to store their valuables, and it was not only extremely sturdy. And he also specially invited the blessing of the master. Except for him and Li Shanren, there is no third person who can be opened, which is why after the swordsman mentioned Li Shanren, he did not suspect the swordsman.

It's just that he is hiding here, although he is safe for the time being, but he is also trapped in this small space.

At this time, a mysterious person, or more accurately, a mysterious monster appeared. That's when he learned the truth about the disaster.

That monster called itself Demon Wind.

According to his own words, he was the embodiment of a faint wisp of the original god of Chiyou.

It all started with a few broken kraft scrolls they had accidentally collected in the country of Aolai. At first, the two of them didn't know what these old broken kraft rolls were, but because they loved collecting, they saw that these kraft rolls were very old, so they bought them. But they never thought that it would bring them such a catastrophe because of this.

With that, the merchant's ghost looked at the delicate box sitting beneath him with a complicated look.

The demon wind learned all this from someone in the country of Aolai, so he chased after them, and finally caught up with their ship here, so he used a demon spell to cause a huge wave to sink the ship. It was precisely because of the purpose of the demon wind that Li Shancai escaped with his life.

The demon wind searched the entire ship, but only this secret room could not be entered. I had to speak outside the secret room to coerce and lure the ghost of the merchant. Because of this, his ontological identity was exposed. However, the ghost of the merchant is not a fool, and knows that the demon wind has gone to such great lengths to get these cowhide rolls. It must have a great connection with that Chiyou.

The story of Chi You's havoc in the Three Realms, he has heard it countless times since he was a child, and he knows the dangers of Chi You. Therefore, he did not let go of the power of the secret room at all. Eventually, he starved to death in the chamber.

When the swordsman heard this, a deep respect rose in his heart.

He carefully looked at the secret room he was in, but he didn't expect that this small secret room would be able to block the demonic wind for so many years. Probably because that demon wind is just an extremely weak wisp of primordial gods, right?

Later, the demon wind saw that the old man refused to let go, and he couldn't get in, so he resorted to a poisonous plan. That is to threaten the lives of others to decay. If the old man didn't hand over the box, he would kill the people outside from time to time. ”

"The old man sees it in his eyes and is anxious in his heart, but the old man can't hand it over. Shame on those who die in vain. ”

The merchant's ghost said sadly.

"Where is that demon wind now? Why didn't you see it when you found it all the way down?"

The swordsman suddenly remembered a very important matter. He searched all the way, but he didn't see the monster in the mouth of the merchant's ghost.

"It's broken. ”

The merchant's ghost said suddenly.

The swordsman was puzzled, not knowing what was going on, and looked at the merchant's ghost suspiciously. I could only hear the ghost of the merchant staring at the door behind the swordsman and slowly saying three words.

"He's coming!"
