Chapter Seventy-Seven: Out of the Wilderness
Old Man Bai was buried next to the wooden house, and he could be considered to have found a home, so he no longer had to live in hiding, and he no longer had to worry about someone coming to kill him. Hiding under the black robe all his life, hiding in the dark all his life, he can finally appear in the world with dignity and lie in the grave peacefully.
Blackie was left behind, not fit to take it with him, it belongs here, it belongs to nature. It was also a good decision to let it be accompanied by the old man white.
The winter sun shines on the snow in Shino, which is particularly dazzling. Long Yang couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly and looked into the distance. Standing beside him was Bai Lan, who was dressed in white, who said very little all the way, just accompanied by Long Yang. Her mood has not completely calmed down, and her long eyelashes are often wet with tears.
Long Yang wanted to comfort her for a few words, but finally endured it again. It wasn't because it wasn't necessary, but Bai Lan's cold face deterred him. This girl's emotions alternate between grief and hatred, which is elusive. One is not good, touching the moldy head, isn't it boring!
What's more, the soul silk in Long Yang's hand and the induction of the black-robed man seem to be nothing, and they come and go, which brings great difficulties to the pursuit. Depending on the situation, it is not possible to find the traces of the black-robed man in a short period of time.
There was a village ahead, and they were about to walk out of the wilderness, and Long Yang let out a sigh of relief. According to the calculation of the distance walked, it should be out of the boundary of Fangcun Town at this time, I don't know what place this is.
Long Yang looked at Bai Lan beside her, her expression slightly nervous.
"Haven't you walked out all these years?" Long Yang couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm." Bai Lan nodded in response.
As Long Yang expected, Bai Lan has been living in the wilderness with the old man since she was rescued by her grandfather, isolated from the outside world. When she saw outsiders, she seemed a little fresh and a little nervous.
"What about your daily necessities, food and drink?" Long Yang then asked.
"It's all arranged by my grandfather, and most of it is self-sufficient. Occasionally, Grandpa would go out and sell some animals in exchange for his usual daily necessities. Xiao Hei and I were at home waiting for my grandfather to come back, and we didn't have a chance to go out. Bai Lan thought of her grandfather again, and her expression was sad. I remember one time when I begged my grandfather to take me out, he got angry, and I haven't asked for it since. ”
It seems that Old Man Bai is very careful, he is afraid that he will be discovered by the black-robed man and bring danger to Bai Lan, so he refuses to take Xiao Bai Lan out. But no matter how careful he was, he still lost his life. Fortunately, Bai Lan, Xiao Hei and Long Yang were together at that time, far away from the wooden house. Otherwise, they will definitely be poisoned by the black-robed people together. seems to have its own fixed number in the dark, and Bai Lan is destined to come together with Long Yang.
Looking at Bai Lan who was talking in front of him, Long Yang suddenly remembered Teacher Zhou Lan, and the teacher's name also had a blue character in it. Thinking of this, Long Yang felt that Bai Lan had become very pleasing to the eye.
There was a fusion change in the blood realm, and the ghosts inside were gone. So far, Long Yang has not found the reason and the whereabouts of Teacher Zhou Lan's ghost. Thinking of Teacher Zhou Lan's kindness to himself, Long Yang couldn't help but smile.
"What are you laughing at?!" Bai Lan looked at Long Yang and asked with some annoyance. Because she found that Long Yang was staring at herself, she smiled inexplicably.
"Oh, nothing." Long Yang hurriedly walked towards the village, avoiding Bai Lan's questioning.
"Weird! Will I still be able to listen to you in the future? Looks like you have to be careful. Bai Lan misunderstood Long Yang's smile and said to herself.
Long Yang and Bai Lan entered the village, and after questioning the villagers, they confirmed that they had gone out of the confines of Fangcun Town. Long Yang still has some things to deal with, so he decides to spend the night in the village.
The kind villagers took them in and vacated a room.
"You sleep, I'll just sit outside." Long Yang closed the door and walked outside.
What Long Yang has to do can't be in front of Bai Lan, he has to deal with the soul silk that has been pulled out of Old Man Bai's hand, and he has to come into contact with Old Man Bai's ghost. Everything must be done in secret, not with outsiders. Even if Bai Lan knew that his grandfather's ghost existed one day, it would be a long time later.
"Who are you?" The ghost of the old man Bai asked in surprise, there were two souls in front of him, an old man and a young man. When he died, he felt his soul go out of his body, and it was then that he believed that there were ghosts in the world.
He has done too much evil in half his life, and although he escaped from the black-robed organization, what he has done is what he has done, and he cannot erase it. I don't know if I will cross the Nai He Bridge, drink Meng Po soup, and go down to the eighteen layers of hell. Just when Old Man Bai was confused and frightened, he found himself entering a strange world.
In this world, the blood is flying, and the emptiness is terrifying, which makes the old man Bai shudder. In fact, it was Long Yang who sent him into the blood realm, and he regretted and was afraid because of his life experience.
This is the underworld? What about Lord Yama? Did you send me to hell without a judgment? The old man Bai trembled, moved his body with difficulty, and kept looking around.
"Yes, anyone?" Old Man Bai asked tremblingly. He nervously forgot that he was dead and asked if anyone was there.
No one answered him, because he was the only ghost in the Blood Realm at this time. The old man Bai was like a lonely ghost, wandering around in the blood realm. And this world is so big, even if he is a ghost, he can't withstand that invisible pressure.
Just as he was on the verge of collapse, two ghosts, one old and one young, appeared in front of him. This is Long Yang's arrangement, he first let the ancient soul and the dog baby contact the old man Bai, and then arrange for Bai Lan to meet the old man Bai.
"We are the messengers of hell, come and judge you!" The ancient soul said in a deep voice. Unexpectedly, he actually made a joke, maybe because he stayed with the dog baby during this time.
"I confess my sins, please forgive me." The ghost of the old man Bai actually knelt on his knees and reverently explained his problems. Since he joined the black-robed organization, he has talked a lot, basically carrying out the orders of his superiors in the black-robed army, such as killing people, controlling people and other things.
I originally wanted to scare the old man Bai, but I didn't expect him to tell so much information about the black-robed man, but unfortunately Long Yang was not there. This information is very important to Long Yang, and the dog baby remembers it carefully, and he wants to repeat it to Long Yang.
Old man Bai was still trembling and talking, and he couldn't remember many things clearly, and he had to forget them before, but now he turned them out again.
It was useless to talk too much now, and the dog baby immediately stopped him. "Okay, you've talked a lot."
"Yes, you will talk about it when the master comes." The ancient soul was also embarrassed, and when he saw the old man Bai repenting like this, he hurriedly echoed.
"Master? Who are your masters? Old Man Bai looked at the ancient soul in surprise.
"That's just my master, not his." The ancient soul pointed at himself, and then pointed at the dog baby. He thinks of Long Yang as the master, but the dog baby is Long Yang's brother.
"And who the hell is your master?" Old Man Bai got up from the ground and continued to ask.
"It's the guy who saved you, he should be there soon." As soon as the ancient soul finished speaking, he sensed the breath of Long Yang. "Look, he's coming."
At this time, Long Yang happened to appear in the Blood Realm. After he came out of Bai Lan's room, he chose a secluded place and entered the blood realm, just in time for the ancient soul to speak.
"Little brother, why are you? Are you dead too? "Old man Bai was very surprised, he was a dead person, so he entered here. How could Long Yang also enter the underworld, is it the same as himself?
"You're dead, but I'm not." Long Yang told Old Man Bai bluntly.
"You're not dead? So how would you? Old man Bai didn't believe his eyes, and he couldn't say everything.
"Don't ask so much, you'll understand later. It was I who extracted your ghost from you as you were dying and sent it into the blood. Long Yang told Old Man Bai what had happened and the situation in the Blood Realm, so that he wouldn't have to ask endless questions.
Even if Long Yang explained it like this, Old Man Bai couldn't fully accept it. But he at least understood that he had just been tricked by this old man and young man.
It is an indisputable fact that he is dead. His ghost can stay in the world because of the young man in front of him. He only thought that this young man was very extraordinary, so he would entrust Bai Lan to him when he was dying, but in fact, there was no way to do it. At this time, it seems that he has really found the right person.
"Where's Lan'er?" Old man Bai asked with concern.
"Didn't you entrust her to me?" Long Yang blamed Old Man Bai for his actions, after all, it was just his wishful thinking.
"I didn't expect you to really fulfill your promise, thank you." Old man Bai bowed deeply and expressed his gratitude.
"What promises, what promises I made, you shoehorned it into me!" When Long Yang heard Old Man Bai's compliment, he was even more angry.
"Thank you too." When Old Man Bai saw Long Yang's reaction, he was actually embarrassed, but he insisted on thanking him.
"Okay, since I keep you, what else do you want?" Long Yang is no longer entangled in this issue, he doesn't know whether he is right or wrong to do this, this has to ask Old Man Bai how he feels.
"Death is the best relief for me. But I really appreciate you for keeping my ghost alive and giving me the opportunity to meet my granddaughter in the future. Old man Bai bowed to Long Yang again and bowed in thanks.
"Since you don't object, then you can stay with them in the future and stay in my space and this world." Long Yang did not hesitate and promised to leave the old man white. At the same time, he needs the white old man's information about the black-robed organization, and he will give him the direction to find the black-robed man.
"Thank you!" Old man Bai still continued to thank him. He had just accepted the fact that he was a ghost, and he had seen Long Yang's special ability to see ghosts, but he hadn't fully adapted to it.
"Tell me about the black robe." Long Yang wanted to know more about the black robe, so he said to the old man Bai.
"Good!" At this moment, Old Man Bai did not hesitate, and once again talked about his experience in the Black Cannon Organization. Moreover, he spoke in more detail and concretely this time, down to every action. Of course, his experience is limited, as he can only involve a single Black Cannon organization, not an entire vast system.
However, when Old Man Bai's narration was about to end, he involved a matter related to Long Yang, which shocked Long Yang.
