I reached out and shook hands with the man, his palms were broad and his fingers were long, a bit like those of a piano player, which did not match his appearance.

I don't know why, but I'm full of affection for this Taoist with a sincere smile.

The Taoist stretched out his hand, grabbed my shoulders familiarly, and said Lu Yan, you definitely don't know me, but I recognize you, I always hear the little poison talk about you, saying that you are in Jiangcheng, last time we went there, we planned to play with you, but unfortunately there has been no contact information for you, so I didn't find it.

A small poison?

Is this my cousin Lu Zuo's nickname?

He took me to a stone table and sat down, then looked at me, and said Listen to Duoduo tell me, you have been poisoned?

I nodded, yes, unlucky.

His eyes suddenly brightened, staring at me, and he smiled and said, "I heard that your incident is quite legendary, tell me about it, maybe I can help you?" ”

I didn't dare to say too much about Duoduo, but this Taoist was in his thirties, older than me, and he didn't have a burden in his heart, from Da Ba Yan's encounter with the later hotel door, to the later dungeon experience, and finally the appearance of the ponytail girl, one by one, after listening to my narrative, the Taoist asked with a gossipy face: "Oh, no, I asked you a very serious question." ”

I was surprised, and said, uh, you say.

The Taoist said nervously: "I have been in Dongguan for a long time before, and I don't feel that it is so expensive, why is it that it costs 1,002 for a night now?" ”

Me: "......"

Big brother, don't you discuss this topic with me so seriously, okay?

The reason why I was deceived on the bus was because I hadn't done it before and didn't understand anything.

I didn't want to answer his question, but men, for reasons of self-esteem, after all, I still couldn't let go of my face, remembering the previous communication with my friend Aaron, so I pretended to be an old driver, talked to him, and talked about the current situation of Fengyue after CCTV exposure.

When the Taoist heard this, he couldn't help but slap his thighs violently, and said Oh, how could this be, when I was in Dongguan, it was called a fun, how did it become like this now, it's just, it's a pity!

My current mentality is to hate Xia Xi's gang to the core, and firmly refuse pornography, gambling and drugs, but in order to cater to this person, I have to go against my will, and I regret it bitterly.

The two talked about "speculation", and the Taoist started talking, chatting with each other, and the Duoduo next to him had already avoided it, and the Taoist took my arm and said yes, Lu Yan, you are really good, we have been away from the south for a long time, and we don't know what the situation is.

I'm sweating all over my head, how do I feel that this person treats me as a fellow practitioner?

Actually, I really don't understand anything!

But this person is friends with my cousin, and looking at the close relationship with him, I don't dare to offend, thinking that maybe he will have to help me say good things when I turn back, so I also followed his words and said, anyway, when the time comes, it really won't work, I'll just ask Ah Long to help me receive it.

After chatting for a while, he got to the point and asked me, that's right, I heard Duoduo say that you have a very powerful Gu poison, let me help you take a look.

When I heard this, tears immediately came out of my eyes - big brother, you finally found out your conscience?

It's not easy!

My cousin's group of friends all have great skills, and I couldn't wait for it, so I quickly reached out and asked him to touch my wrist to check it.

He put his hand on my pulse and closed his eyes.

After a while, his face began to become serious, he looked at me, and then said, "Lu Yan, your question is a bit complicated. ”

I smiled bitterly and said yes, originally the girl said that I was basically dead, and asked me to write a suicide note, but after knowing my identity, she called me to come to my cousin Lu Zuo.

The Taoist withdrew his hand, nodded and said yes, the little demon is right, do you know why she said that?

I nodded and said I knew, Duoduo told me that my heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys were all broken, and that none of them were well, and that in this case, the reason why I was able to survive was because the worm was supporting me in my body, otherwise I would have died a long time ago.

The Taoist sighed and said yes, the worm owes a little meaning, so it has not been able to hatch, and if you die, it will not be complete, and this is what keeps you alive.

He pulled a porcelain bottle the size of a snuffbox from his robe, poured a little golden powder out of it on the table, stirred it with his middle finger to make my eyes look at his fingers, and then he began to draw on the table.

He paints talismans, the kind we often see in movies, with an archaic and fluent technique, and he finishes it in one stroke.

After the talisman was finished, his left hand pressed lightly, and the gold dust actually flew up slowly, constantly rotating, and then rushed towards me, my eyes were golden, startled, and subconsciously closed my eyes, and at this moment, the Taoist said solemnly in my ear: "Open your eyes." ”

I subconsciously opened my eyes and saw that in the mid-air between me and him, there was an image of the body's internal organs outlined in gold dust.

In this image, from the chest cavity to the abdominal cavity, there is a mess, many organs are only one-half to one-third remaining, the rest are broken, and in the heart, parasitic a long worm like an octopus.

The long worm has a fist-sized foot and its claws are attached to the heart, beating with the heart, giving people an extremely hideous feeling.

I looked at the Taoist, and then at the image, and my face suddenly became extremely pale, and I said, "This is the situation in my body?"

The Taoist nodded, and said yes, you are not a cultivator, you can't look inside, I'll show you.

What a magical spell.

It was really impressive that a man with a mouth full of wind and moon could make such a magical scene, but it was not enough to attract my attention, because I was already frightened by this terrible situation in my body at the moment.

It turns out that at this moment, I can no longer be called a human.

I'm just a corpse.

The Taoist saw that my face was pale for a while, knowing that I was frightened, and waved his hand in front of me, and the golden scene immediately disappeared, and he put his arm around my shoulder, comforting me with kind words, saying don't worry too much, people are inherently dead, and they come and go for decades......

I cried and said big brother, are you so comforting?

The Taoist laughed, you can say it, let me change the way you like it - if there is anyone in the world who can save you and let you live, I think only your cousin Lu Zuo will be. He is the descendant of the Gu Miao of the Qingshui River, the guy who knows the most about Gu poison in the contemporary era, maybe he is the only one who can let you survive as a human.

I breathed a sigh of relief and said that it was good, to be honest, I haven't lived enough, I really haven't been that free.

The Taoist smiled and said it's okay, in fact, if you want to live, I also have a way, and a friend I know also has a way; But that's not the right way, anyway, since we're friends, we can't let you die, right?

Although this man spoke in a fog, I felt as if I had taken a reassuring pill, and finally put my mind at ease, looked left and right, and asked why my cousin hadn't come back yet?

The Taoist stretched his waist and said that he was still on the plane, and I rushed back by day and night through a paper armor horse; As for him, because he was seriously injured before, his cultivation has not recovered much until now, and he is a wasted person, and his body can't stand this kind of high-intensity rush, so it's a little late. But he'll be back in the evening.

I cautiously asked, saying that the one we lost was really a phoenix egg?

The Taoist looked a little softer, sighed, and said Who knows, we don't know what will hatch in that egg, but there is a very important friend of ours inside, so we will be very nervous.

I nodded, saying it's a stinky fart-sama, right?

The Taoist was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, saying no, the stinky fart cat is a special name for Duoduo, and more often, we call it a tiger cat.

I said, oh, it's a cat?

The Taoist shook his head and said no, it is not a cat, it is a ...... Anyway, it's a stunning, genius guy, and without it, there would be no your cousin and me, and none of our friends, or even the whole world.

He said something unbelievable, but I believed it.

Because his emotions became a little agitated.

Something that can excite this Taoist, I have reason to believe that what he said is true.

I asked him again, who had stolen the egg?

The Taoist was silent for a while, did not speak, but patted me on the shoulder, and said You stay here, don't walk around, go back and let the little poison show you, no matter what, I promise you, I will let you live, rest assured.

After he finished speaking, he beckoned others to go, and I stayed under the tree, and my heart was warm.

After a while, Erchun came to me and took me to my cousin's house, which was a garden made of bamboo, which was very elegant and very comfortable to live in.

I stayed here all day, almost no one paid any attention to me, no one even told me to eat, and I wasn't really hungry, just waiting.

I was not in good health, and I fell asleep after a while, and before I knew it, it was dark, and I was woken up by a quarrel, and when I opened my eyes, I saw the ponytailed girl who had saved me before, arguing with a man.

The two sides were arguing fiercely, and I squinted and finally recognized the man.

He is my cousin Lu Zuo.
