Chapter 164: Don't Let Others See My Body
This sudden remark scared me and the fat man Leng Yueru a lot.
We turned our heads almost at the same time, and Leng Yueru directly pulled out the black gold ancient knife and put on a defensive posture.
When I saw Old Man Wu standing not far behind us, I couldn't believe my eyes.
The gray hair and beard, the extremely thin body, and the folds on the face even have to fight with Han Lao.
Although his back is not rickety, Old Man Wu at this time is in a state as if he has been sucked dry.
If it weren't for the fact that his bright, deep eyes were normal, I would have almost thought he was a living corpse.
What's even more frightening is that he actually stood behind us quietly.
No wonder the servant's eyes were so wrong just now, he took the jade wrench and turned around and ran.
It took a long time because Mr. Wu was behind us.
But when did he come, he actually deceived Leng Yueru, who had always been the most cautious.
"Grandpa!"
When the fat man saw Old Man Wu in such a state, he knelt directly on the ground with a puff, and his eyes turned red instantly.
Leng Yueru, on the other hand, withdrew the black gold ancient knife, took two steps back, and looked at Old Man Wu with a cautious face.
"Old man Wu, you ......"
I also took a step back, a little incredulous that the old man Wu in front of me had become like this.
Not to mention the state when he took me out of the village, let's just say that although he was weird two months ago, his body shape and momentum were normal.
But the way it looks now can be regarded as a world of difference.
Old Man Wu lowered his head, patted the fat man's head and said, "Get up, thank you for your hard work!" ”
The fat man stood up from the ground with teary eyes and said, "Grandpa, tell me if it's Wu Gang's little cub who did it, I must have peeled his skin!" ”
"This is not the place to talk, come in!"
When Mr. Wu turned to leave, I realized that he was walking barefoot, and he was walking in a strange way.
I don't believe that an old man walks like a ballet.
This is from the rumors of the Yin people, only the dead can walk like this, that is, the ghosts in the mouths of the common people.
But I didn't feel the death qi from Old Man Wu, unless he deliberately used a special method to hide the death qi on his body.
The inside of Old Man Wu's house is quite complete, but it looks very dim, and the windows on both sides have been nailed with wooden planks inside and out.
Old Man Wu sat down on the main seat due north, raised his hand and said, "All three of you sit down, the fat man closes the door!" ”
When the fat man closed the door, the room was lit up with warm lights, and it looked very dim.
I looked up and asked Mr. Wu, "Mr. Wu, I don't know what you asked me to come with the fat man?" And your current body? ”
I don't know why, it seems that since I went to Shuchuan with the fat man, and then came back, to see Old Man Wu again, it seems that there is an invisible wall between the two of us.
Old Man Wu picked up the teacup in his hand, lowered his head and took a sip and said, "You are the Taibao of Coffin Mountain, and I naturally need you to build a coffin for me to be buried!" ”
"Grandpa!" The fat man answered on the side, looking a little anxious.
I was also a little puzzled, and I was ready to ask.
But Old Man Wu directly stated the reason.
"I'm old, and the coffin that your grandfather promised me didn't come true, so when I was still alive, I wanted you to make a coffin for the old man in advance, just in case!"
"Old man Wu, are you hiding something from us, what happened to the Wu family?" I looked at Old Man Wu and asked.
And Leng Yueru said coldly: "Your limit is coming?" ”
"How so?"
Old Man Wu turned his head to look at Leng Yueru with interest and said, "Your little girl is very interesting, why don't you talk to the old man about ......?" ”
The fat man and I glanced at each other, and finally looked at Leng Yueru and said, "Yueru, have you noticed something?" ”
Leng Yueru shook her head, smiled faintly, and then said: "I didn't notice anything, it's just that my master told me that there is an unwritten unspoken rule in the Yin Human Circle!" ”
"In the Yin circle, except for a very few professional people, they will build a good posthumous mansion for themselves when they debut."
"The rest of the people will basically notify the coffin craftsman three days before they die to build a coffin for themselves, and compared to the Yin Human Circle, plus you are a representative of the master of the Northern School, I believe you know life and death better than me!"
Leng Yueru said it in a fog, and she needed to read it repeatedly to know the true meaning.
The fat man frowned and said, "According to what you say, I am my grandfather's own grandson, and I can't feel it at all." ”
After listening to Leng Yueru's explanation, I looked at Old Man Wu, wanting to get some answers from his expression.
But I didn't see anything, I saw Old Man Wu smile faintly and said: "The Nine Dragons Secret Guard really deserves its reputation, this Coffin Mountain Sect is really a strange person, I Wu Niansheng admire, admire!" ”
In the interval between Old Man Wu's words, his big sleeves waved twice in the air, and then coughed twice.
Suddenly, the room was surrounded by an extremely thick and extremely dead air.
This dead air is filled with a rotten atmosphere, which is not to say how long Old Man Wu has lived, but from the intensity of this dead air, you can clearly feel that Old Man Wu will not live long.
As for why he can still stand up like a normal person, it is because of his eight-faced Buddha ability, there are many such secret methods in the Yin circle, but I don't know how many days it can last.
And Old Man Wu's move just confirmed Leng Yueru's words, even Leng Yueru didn't expect Old Man Wu's dead breath to be so heavy.
"You...... It's ......"
Leng Yueru had a gaffe for the first time, she actually stood up directly from the chair, stretched out her hand and pointed at Old Man Wu and wanted to speak, but she only said three words, and she couldn't say any more.
Old Man Wu chuckled and said: "Girl, don't be surprised, the old man has lived for so long, and he can become a friend of life and death with the Coffin Mountain Taibao, and naturally he can also have some relationship with the ancestors of your Nine Dragons Secret Guard, and even the old man of the Coffin Mountain Dao has a little connection, but it's just ......"
Speaking of this, Old Man Wu changed his words and said: "It's just that it's a little too late now, let you come today, in addition to building a coffin for the old man, and helping the old man find a feng shui treasure hole, there is a more important thing." ”
"Grandpa, don't you want to be so mysterious? Is there anything you have to say to us directly? The fat man looked a little anxious.
Also, who is this thing on, when I hear my own grandfather say that he is almost finished, he will not feel good in his heart.
In addition, the fat man had just walked out of the ghost gate, and Old Man Wu's words made him even more uncomfortable.
"Chubby, grandpa is fine, don't worry, I'm just taking precautions for a rainy day......"
"I know everything about you and Wu Gang, but Wu Gang is just bewitched by this matter, if I can survive this catastrophe, I will definitely give you an explanation!"
"Alright, it's almost time, the three of you are now the people I trust the most, I hope you can promise me one thing!"
"Oh, you and I have only met a few times, so why should I be trusted by you?" Leng Yueru was a little unconvinced, and the look on her face was also full of vigilance.
Seeing this, Old Man Wu was not surprised, as if everything was expected by him.
I saw him stretch out two fingers and say, "First, naturally it's because of Xiaoyang......"
Old Man Wu pointed at me, and then stretched out a second finger and said two words.
These two words directly made Leng Yueru's complexion change greatly, and the whole person was in a state of distraction.
Old Man Wu said: "The second reason is because, Ji ...... Orchid! ”
As soon as these words came out, I didn't feel anything like the fat man, but Leng Yueru took two steps back in a row, and the whole person stayed there.
I looked at Leng Yueru, a little worried.
But he still opened his mouth and asked Old Man Wu: "Old Man Wu, I don't know what you asked us to promise you?" ”
Old Man Wu glanced at the oblique upwards, and then said in a deep voice: "If I fail to change my life against the sky, I will die." ”
"I hope that no one will see my body except for the three of you......"
