Everyone was shocked and didn't know how to answer, so they could only remain silent. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Thirteen years ago, a small village in the north disappeared without a trace overnight, I don't know if the three of them have ever heard of it."

Yun Hua Baili Yan shook his head, and Shen Lan muttered for a long time: "Although I was young thirteen years ago, I seem to have heard of it. It seems to be called... Ningxue Village? ”

"Ning Xue Village..."Han Taiyan muttered silently, repeating constantly, and his eyes seemed to turn red unconsciously.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and people were quite breathless. Baili Yan asked softly, "Senior brother, what's wrong with this village?" ”

"I don't know the details, but it was a sensation back then. I only know that more than 700 households in the village disappeared overnight, as if evaporating from the world. ”

Han Taiyan relieved his breath and said with a wry smile: "Let me tell you, after all... I am from Ningxue Village. ”

"Thirteen years ago, I was an ordinary young man in Ningxue Village. My father died early, and only my mother depended on each other. It is said that when she was young, she was favored by a well-known wandering scholar, saying that she was gifted with spiritual roots, so she accepted her as a disciple to travel together. I also taught her some self-defense techniques, divination and fortune telling.

Later, my mother fell in love with my father on the way to the party, and married into the village. I was young at the time, and I didn't understand the mysteries of Taoism, so I just regarded it as a trick to coax children, and I didn't believe it to be true. The **** and childhood sweetheart's playmate came home from outside, and her mother looked serious, saying that there was a bloody disaster in the village, and she wanted me to leave with her. ”

He sighed, "If only I had listened to my mother..."

"Ning Xue Village gave birth to me and raised me for many years, how can my mother's bloody disaster scare me away? At that time, I only remembered the good days of everyone's beautiful ladies and couldn't live in a remote village, so I didn't take her words to heart. Mother told the people of the village about the bloody calamity, perhaps she was incompatible with the people of the village in her daily life, and no one wanted to believe her for a while. And so the days went by.

One night, I was awakened by the light outside the window, and I peeked to see my mother fighting with a black mass. That thing is fierce and abnormal, more than a dozen rounds down, my mother is not an opponent, seriously injured and fell to the ground when I saw me rushing out, my heart was crossed, I actually used a spell to send me a few miles away, when I woke up... What I saw was like a nightmare.

The entire village was shrouded in a heavenly phantom. The phantom was black, red, and dark, and the fog on its body was endless, and it couldn't see its eyes, nose, and ears clearly, but it had a huge and boundless mouth. I wanted to turn around and run, but I didn't know about my mother and Awan in the village..."

He paused, "Ah Wan is the girl who grew up with my childhood sweetheart." At that time, the two of us had already made a private agreement for life, and in that case, whether it was because of my mother or because of her, I couldn't just leave them alone. ”

He gritted his teeth, "So I rushed back again." ”

"But the mist-like monster enveloped the whole village. When the people in the village noticed the abnormality, they all panicked. Ah Wan and I were separated by a fog, and the fog was like a seamless cover, I was outside, and she was inside. We can see each other, but we can't touch each other's bodies, we can hear each other's voices, but we can't hug each other. The fog grew thicker, gradually making the people in the village sluggish, and Ah Wan was afraid that I would be implicated, so he forced me to leave. I told her that I would go back to save her, and that she would hold on until the day I went to save her. ”

His eyes suddenly became firm, "'Even if it is ten years, twenty years, or a hundred years, as long as I don't die, I will always wait for you to come back and save me'." These were the last words of Ah Wan. ”

His expression was solemn and his eyes were clear, but his throat was choked.

Hearing him say this, Baili Yan was sad in his heart, and he sobbed secretly for a while, and even the white fox on Yun Jing's shoulder buried his head in his tail, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

"And what about later? I didn't expect Senior Brother Han to have such a painful experience. Later, what happened when this physical body died? ”

"Then I wanted to escape from the range of the youkai, but I didn't want the youkai to seem to want me in, and it didn't want me to leave. The towering giant claws slapped down, I am not very old, and I am just an ordinary peasant youth, how can I dodge this blow? At that time, my physical body was almost necrotic.

It was then that I was rescued by Elder Shi who was passing by. ”

"Shi Ran? It's him? "Baili Yanqi said.

"Not bad. Elder Shi seems to be stern, but in fact, he is warm... Not only did he save me, but he also used the soul turning technique to extract my soul, so that I would not die with my body with deep resentment, and my soul would turn into a yin spirit and a ghost, which would harm the world. ”

"Soul Transfer... Legend has it that the soul turning technique costs the caster Yang Shou, Shi Ran... Elder Shi is willing to do this for you? "Baili Yanqi said.

"Yes, I also entered the Upper Xuan Monastery later, and I only learned about the sacrifice in it. Although Elder Shi doesn't care much about me, in my heart, he is my new parent. ”

"Then your physical body..."Shen Lan asked in a deep voice.

"After that, Elder Shi infused my soul into the body of the newly deceased. But after all, it's not the original body, and depending on the fit, about two to three months, I have to change to a new body. Otherwise, the body will rot, not only will it stench and affect its actions, but it will also be unable to move and wait quietly for death. ”

"So, you're looking for a suitable body for yourself?" Yun Jing sighed and asked softly.

"Not bad. In fact, looking at Qunyu Mountain, there are many cold ethnic groups living here, but the number is relatively small. ”

Yun Jing nodded and said, "What you said is true. I remember that when I traveled to Qunyu Mountain with Baili, I did meet many mountain residents. ”

"This is where the bones of several of these ethnic groups are buried." Han Taiyan paused, "Whenever there is a new deceased in the clan, they will send the corpse here. I'm just... I've been here a lot to find the right body..."

The crowd sank for a long time.

"Although this is a last resort, I know that it is really intolerable to disturb the dead and open the grave and borrow the corpse. But... But—" The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help crying,

"But I want to go back, I want to find it! I want to save Ah Wan! We said okay... Say yes... No matter how long... As long as I'm not dead, as long as she might be alive, I'm going to go back and save her. And my mother, I don't know if she was dead or alive in the first war? ”

"After so many years... Is it possible to be alive? Baili Yan muttered in a low voice.

"It's a mirage." Shen Lan said in a deep voice.

When Han Taiyan heard the word "mirage", he bared his teeth and grinned angrily, obviously after years of investigation, he also knew a little about the details.

"Presumably Elder Shi mentioned it to you."

Han Taiyan nodded, "That's right, Senior Brother Shen is well-informed. The elder said it was a mirage. ”

"It's a mirage?!" Baili Yan exclaimed, his hand lightly covering his lips, "For so many years, I have only heard about it in books, but I have never heard of the appearance of mirages. ”

Yun Hua scratched her head and said, "This mirage... Where is it sacred? ”

"It's not sacred, it's a demon!" Han Taiyan shouted. He paused, "... Sorry, gaffe..."

"It's fine. What the hell is this mirage? ”

Shen Lan said: "The so-called mirage, born in the sea, gathers the demonic energy of heaven and earth as its body, is huge, covers the sky and the sun, and is a legendary demon. ”

"It's so powerful..."

"Yes, but according to legend, mirages feed on the seven emotions and six desires of living beings, and humans are rich in emotions, so they especially like to devour humans. Legend has it that tens of thousands of years ago, the flood was disturbed by many mirages, and a protracted war lasted for hundreds of years, and finally ended in a tragic victory for mankind. However, with the size of the mirage that Senior Brother Han saw, it should still be in its infancy, otherwise with the strength of the elder alone, I am afraid it will be difficult to compete. ”

"After so many years, do the people who have been devoured still have their heads alive?"

"The mirage is a strange monster, because he is made of heaven and earth demons, and his body is full of its own. It is said that there are mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars, and ordinary people strayed into their bodies, but thought that they had arrived in some cave. The creatures that are devoured will not disappear immediately, but will survive inside. ”

Shen Lan paused, "Many living beings continue to derive joy, anger, sorrow and joy in their bodies, and the main source of energy for mirages is the emotions emitted by these living beings in their bodies. However, the environment in the mirage's belly is complicated, there are countless mountain spirits and ghosts, and mountains and rivers are also readily available. Humans are a very weak race, how many years can they live... It's not something we could have predicted. ”

"This is a big matter, we might as well report to the master and uncle, and search for this demon together. I don't know if the door can know that there is a dragon here? ”

"Elder Shi only said that he had found traces of the mirage, but he did not reveal anything about me. But the mirage is good at stealth, and there has been no news of it for so many years. ”

Shen Lan sank for a long time, "So, I understand." He turned his head to look at Yun Hua and Baili Yan beside him, and the three of them nodded together, and Yun Hua said, "Senior Brother Han, don't worry, today's matter, the three of us will never mention it to outsiders." ”

Han Taiyan's expression froze, and he choked up for a long time: "I, the one who borrowed the corpse to dig the grave... The Exorcist Puppeteer... Withdrawn and weird... You, you seriously..."

Senior Brother Han said seriously. Everyone is practicing their own path in order to survive. I've heard that there is a saying about the method of cultivating the Tao, and for so many years, although you have taken away the graves of bad people and stolen the corpses, you have not taken away others. I think it's easy to take away mortals with your way, right? ”

Yun Jing sighed and looked up, "You also have your persistence, your reserve, and your long-cherished wishes." Since you don't want to be discovered by others, how can the three of us get in the way? The so-called beauty of a gentleman as an adult, if there is a mirage trace in the future, don't forget to tell the three of me. To help the brothers of the same sect, it is absolutely incumbent on us to listen to the Wind Academy. Of course, between friends, there is no need for many words. ”

He grinned, and the two people around him also nodded, and the three of them stood side by side in the dim light, giving people a sense of youth and refreshment.

Han Taiyan's eyes were hot, and she couldn't stop her tears, "After so many years of being alone, others say that I am selfish and difficult to get along with." I didn't expect to meet you today, and I knew what it means to be vast and powerful, and what is to be natural. Compared with you, I am truly self-aware and ashamed of myself. Senior Brother Yun, Senior Brother Shen, Senior Sister Baili, I don't thank you for your kindness, although Han Taiyan is just a mortal, you are willing to make me a friend, in the future... It's a real friend. ”

His face flushed, "I'm not very good at talking, but... Today is an unusual day. He had a rare smile on his face.

Baili Yanwan said: "Oh~ The big man's family, with tears on his face and a strong smile, is really a pig's head and more beautiful than you!" She paused, "Aren't you looking for a suitable body?" Come, the three of us will help you together, and you can save some energy. ”

"No, no, no, this kind of thing is still coming down... Just watch the three of you from the sidelines..."He was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Then again, these three watches in the middle of the night, you came here, what is the important matter?" ”

Yun Jing patted her head: "Yes, yes, yes, you look at our memory, we forget everything when we talk." We are here to find something, I don't know if Senior Brother Han has heard of it, this thing is called Cold Phosphorus Ghost Fire, the whole body is blue, and places with abundant death qi and water and fire aura may appear. ”

Han Taiyan was stunned for a moment, "Cold phosphorus ghost fire? All-over blue? But that's what you're talking about? He stretched out his hand.

Everyone looked in the direction, and sure enough, they found a vivid blue flame at the top of the tomb not far away.
