Chapter Eighty-Five: A Dangerous Situation Arising from Greed
Nankong looked at him anxiously and a little puzzled, how could he leave, he must have been taken away by Mrs. Youluo! But the next moment, a spirit flashed in his mind! No! If Bai Ningxi is Luo Muli, Luo Muli is Bai Ningxi, then how could she appear in Beiban, and she is still with Lin Shuihan!? Luo Muli grew up in Dongchen since she was a child!
"It's not that you wait, you wait!" Nankong was a little confused, I don't know what was going on, just when the two of them were confused, the boiling sea suddenly exploded with a 'boom'! Frightened, the two people hurriedly turned their heads, and the water splashed more than ten feet high, and then fell! The sea surface was suddenly broken open a road, all the sea water obediently retreated to the side, that road led straight to Ran Island, Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian stood at one end of the road, looking at the unfathomable as if leading to the other end of the seabed, and their jaws were about to fall to the ground in surprise!
At this moment, a looming figure suddenly appeared on the road, slowly coming in the breeze, Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian hugged each other in fright, looking at everything in front of them, thinking that some monster from Qinghai had come ashore! But when the man walked ashore, they were first surprised, and then they realized that they were making a fuss, that person was none other than the old man!
"Old man!" shouted in unison.
But they suddenly found that the old man ...... It doesn't seem to be an old grandfather anymore...... Although he still has white hair, his face has long since lost the horizontal lines all over the place, and some are just a kind of tenacity that has been precipitated for a long time in the years, and the eyebrows and eyes are no longer kind, full of firmness, Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian were stunned, standing motionless in place, at a loss.
"Why are you here?" The old man walked in front of them, and returned to his previous appearance, the wrinkles on his face were clearly visible, Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian invariably stretched out their fingers and pointed at his face, unable to spit out a word for a long time.
"Grandpa, you, how did you become like this?" or Lin Shuihan was the first to react, and the old man was puzzled, "What has become of me, I am like this!"
"No, it's not, we just saw you...... You ......" Lin Shuihan gestured incoherently on his face.
"Oh!" the old man seemed to suddenly realize, and then said in a deep voice: "You are wrong!" Then he passed between the two of them, walked into the woods, and Nankong Qian and Lin Shuihan chased after him.
"Grandpa, what are you doing in the deep sea? We've been looking for you in the woods for a long time, but we can't find you. ”
"Old man, you're too powerful, aren't you?
Lin Shuihan and Nankong Qian were beside him, and he asked a little impatiently, so he simply stopped and turned his head to look at the two of them, "What are you two doing on Ran Island?"
"Lin Shuihan has something to look for you!" Nan Kongqian immediately stretched out his hand and pointed at Lin Shuihan and looked at the old man and said, the old man glanced at him, "No need to ask, I don't know anything." With that, he turned around and left, leaving Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian stunned in place, the two of them ...... I haven't said anything yet!
"Grandpa!" Lin Shuihan chased after him again, "Grandpa, we're really sorry to disturb you when we suddenly came to Ran Island, but there is a reason for it, and we really need your help with something very important." ”
"Who do you think I am, I don't have the time to take care of other people's affairs!"
"Grandpa, this matter is very serious! This is related to the lives of the people of Dongchen and Nanchu!"
"What's the big deal, isn't it just a few blood ghosts!" The old man said very indifferently, but it made Lin Shuihan feel shocked again, "Old man, you, you know everything?"
"What if you know, what if you don't know?"
"Hey, old man, don't look like you don't care like this, you have to know that those blood ghosts specialize in sucking human blood, and they are terrifying!" Nan Kongqian couldn't help but say out loud.
"People are inherently good, do you think people are willing to be blood ghosts, but they are not forced!"
The old man put his hands behind his back, with a leisurely expression, Nan Kongqian and Lin Shuihan were still by his side, not leaving an inch, hoping to continue to hear something from his mouth, "Old man, do you know anything, tell us quickly, how to deal with those blood ghosts, and the people of Youyangqu, we can no longer watch the lives of innocent people fall into their hands!"
"What if you can't just watch that? With the strength of the two of you, you can't do anything, go home and wash and sleep!" The old man came to his cabin in the woods, walked into the door, turned to look at Lin Shuihan and Nan Kongqian, and slammed the door shut.
"Grandpa! Grandpa!" Lin Shuihan didn't give up, "Although Nankong Qian and I can't do anything, but there are other people in Jiangling City, as well as my senior brother and sister, they will definitely not let go of the people of Youyangqu! Besides, those blood ghosts are indeed very pitiful, and we are now trying to find a way to save them!"
"It's useless! Once people's desires are aroused, they can no longer be calmed, all the tranquility is just the tranquility before the storm, you better leave quickly! Don't waste time with me, maybe at this moment, your senior brother and sister have already had an accident!"
Before the old man's voice fell, Lin Shuihan felt that something was wrong, Nankong Qian seemed to hear the old man's voice, the two of them looked at each other, hesitating, at a loss, at this moment, the old man's voice sounded again, "All the evil thoughts in the world are caused by greed, some people only want one thing wholeheartedly, and some people want everything half-heartedly, the faint song of the West Candle is much more difficult to deal with than the Annihilation Palace!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Lin Shuihan suddenly raised his eyes, "Oh no! Senior Brother Li!" If he remembers correctly, Senior Brother Li Shiran is looking at that bloody ghost in the City Lord's Mansion at the moment!"Let's hurry back to the City Lord's Mansion!" Lin Shuihan immediately took Nan Kongqian's hand and ran out, throwing his sword out as he ran, and after gathering his breath, he stepped on the sword body, and in the blink of an eye, he and Nankong Qian both flew in the direction of Jiangling City!
He didn't know why he felt like this, but he vaguely felt that Senior Brother Li Shiran would be in danger, after all, he was now alone in the City Lord's Mansion looking at that blood ghost, that blood ghost, although he was suppressed bloodthirsty, but after all, he was still a person who was Youyangqu, and Senior Brother Li ...... Lin Shuihan only felt that his heart was getting more and more nervous, Senior Brother Li, you must not have anything happen...... Million!
And Li Shiran didn't seem to be aware of the danger coming, that Bo An was arranged by the city lord to rest in a wing room in the east, Li Shiran sat on the edge of the table and guarded him, originally Li Shiran didn't plan to do this at first, it was Bo An who begged him bitterly, saying that he was more secure in himself, so he stayed.
Because Bo An was resting on the bed, Li Shiran had nothing to do, so he found a book to read at random, although Bo An wrapped himself firmly in the quilt, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, lying on the bed and turning over, he couldn't sleep, Li Shiran was reading quietly, he didn't dare to disturb, so he had to entertain himself on the bed alone.
"If you really can't sleep, I'll go out for a walk with you?" Li Shiran put down the scroll in his hand, turned his head to look at Bo An, he curled up in the quilt, looked at Li Shiran with a pair of eyes, and whispered: "I'm afraid, I can't see the light." ”
"You mean the sun?" Li Shiran raised his eyebrows.
Bo An nodded.
"That's why you don't bow your head when you get outside, don't you?"
He pursed his lips and nodded again.
"Youyang Song...... Where is the West Candle?" Li Shiran couldn't help but ask, Bo An sat up quietly when he heard this, still wrapping the thick quilt around his body, looking at the incomprehensible sadness that flashed in Li Shiran's eyes, he suddenly became sad, "It's quite dark there." ”
Li Shiran heard his voice and unconsciously turned his gaze to him.
"It's cold, it's damp, it's eerie, and it's like there's a myriad of ghosts around you that want to eat you. Bo An said slowly word by word, Li Shiran looked at him blankly, looking at the faint sadness in his eyes, and there was a feeling of throbbing pain in his heart, as if he had pierced a needle into his heart and pulled it out mercilessly.
"But aren't you dead yet?" An unfamiliar voice came, which made Li Shiran and Bo An suddenly startled, Bo An immediately hid in the quilt, and Li Shiran drew his sword and turned back the moment he heard the sound, and the shiny sword body stayed on the man's neck.
"Liu'er Xian, do you want to die, or do you think that I don't dare to kill you?" Li Shiran watched Liu'er Xian's hippie smile appear in front of him, and his brows couldn't help frowning, Liu Erxian smiled, stretched out his hand to pin his sword, and said, "Why are you so excited, I'll come to see you." ”
"Do you want to take him away from me? Li Shiran turned his head to look at Bo An who was hiding in the quilt, and then continued to stare at Liu'er Xian, for fear that he would miss any next move.
"How could it be!" Liu Erxian looked surprised, "I still think it's incredible that you can cure him, besides, Xiao Yuan saved him, he is a member of your Qilin Gate, and I don't have that ability to rob people with your Qilin Gate." ”
"If it's okay, then leave now, to be honest, I don't like to see you guys. Li Shiran frowned, and his words were cold.
Liu Erxian smiled and nodded, "Okay!" After saying that, he turned around, Li Shiran stared at his back, thinking that he would not just leave, sure enough! Just the moment he turned around, the smile on Liu'er Xian's face instantly faded, replaced by an extremely cold face, he conjured a qi blade with his hand, and a knife turned backwards! Fortunately, Li Shiran was quick and hurriedly blocked his qi blade attack with his sword!
