Zhou Laoer, who walked over from the opposite side, still had that yin and yang weird appearance, holding a bell in one hand and a flashlight in the other, and the bell stopped abruptly as Tan Jian returned to 'normal'.

Zhou Lao Er walked up to me and Tan Jian, at this moment Tan Jian was lying on the ground, with some rags hanging on his body, unconscious, and I didn't know what the situation was, I quickly got up and stood face to face with Zhou Lao Er.

He was very polite and said sharply: "Why are you here!" ”

I said, "Come to your rescue, if you hadn't lost the news for no reason, would we have run to this ancient tomb?" ”

Zhou Lao Er sneered and said, "I'm afraid the person you want to save is not me." ”

The two of us have already torn our faces, so we can't give him face: "That's right, I want to save Zhou Xuanye, but I don't want to save you, but who makes you ghostly." "Zhou Lao Er also looks quite embarrassed, his body is full of dirt marks and blood mud, and it is obviously not easy.

As soon as I said this, his eyes suddenly became very strange, and he said, "It seems that you really regard Zhou Xiaosan as a brother, tsk, I originally wanted to clean you up, but now I suddenly don't want to kill you." His tone was a little strange, and I got used to it: "Thank you for not killing." ”

Zhou Lao Er sneered and said, "You're welcome, I won't kill you, I just want to wait to see you regret that day." He obviously meant something, but I knew that even if I asked, this neurotic would not say, so I didn't speak, and squatted down to check on Tan Blade's situation.

Tan Jian's matter, Zhou Lao Er is obviously clear, and even I doubt that only Zhou Lao Er knows about this matter, and Zhou Xuanye may not know about it?

"Boss, what the hell is he ......" I wanted to say what it was, but I felt that it was not polite to say it, so I said: "Why did he turn into purple hair?" ”

Zhou Lao Er put away the corpse bell and said, "Why did it turn into purple hair, don't you know it very well in your heart?" ”

I really want to smoke him, the same person, the same face, different personality, it feels really different.

"I know what a fart."

"Didn't Zhou Xiaosan teach you a lot of things? It's almost confiscated from you as an apprentice, what, what is the truth of the matter, don't you have a score in your heart? If you can't even guess this, Zhou Xiaosan really carried you in vain. As soon as he said this, I felt a shock in my heart.

Zhou Xuanye has indeed taught me a lot of things, and among the situations I know, there are three situations that are in line with Tan Jian's situation.

The first is Kuiba, only Kuiba can freely switch between people and corpses, but Kuiba is extremely rare, I don't think I should be so coincidental, the people around me are Kuiba. Besides, according to legend, Kuiba has the ability to fly to the sky and the earth, and if he wants to kill a person, he can do it in the blink of an eye. Although Tan Jian is a cow after his transformation, he has not reached that level, otherwise I wouldn't be alive and well now.

The second situation is corpse poison, after being poisoned by the corpse of the green hair, according to the different physique of each person, the effect of the poison is also different, there are thousands of strange, the most common 'ghost scratching meat' treatment is timely, it can be cured, and then there are some other effects that can be conjured, and there is almost no cure. One of them is called corpse transformation, after the living person is poisoned by the corpse, it will slowly turn into a hairy corpse, become a normal person during the day, and become a monster on the wrist.

However, in the second case, the poisoned person will lose consciousness within a few days, and will completely become a monster that attacks at the sight of flesh and blood, and will soon be subdued. Tan Jian obviously doesn't belong to this either, because I've known him for more than a year.

Then, the rest is only the third possibility, which is also the one that I don't want to believe the most, but it seems to be the most probable, that is, 'refining corpses'. Zhou Xuanye told me about the origin of corpse alchemy, which has a long history, although the modern era has declined, but the magic power of the ancients to refine corpses is still passed on by word of mouth.

Originally refining corpses was to preserve corpses and find ways to cure them, but later evolved into using corpses to borrow power to make money and kill people, so they embarked on the evil path, and went further and further on this evil path.

Refining the corpse is a vein, and there is a powerful person, who can refine the 'corpse king', and the corpse king is born by the spirit, which is no different from the living. But this is no different from a living person, in fact, it is just an appearance, it is just an imitation of the corpse king.

The human body is made of the soul, the soul is the nature, and only with the soul can there be spirituality, and only then can there be all kinds of feelings, that is, the spiritual world; The spirit is the form, the spirit is the projection of the soul, controlling the human body, with form but no spirit. To put it simply, a corpse with a soul in his body is a living dead, and there is no soul in his body, which is what we commonly call a walking corpse. Most of the walking corpses just occupy the time and let the spirits not disperse and settle in them, but the corpse king is gathered by the scattered spirits wandering in the earth's atmosphere.

Such a corpse king, it seems to have its own consciousness, its own thoughts, its own memories, and its own code of conduct, just like the living, but in fact, all of this is a projection of the inner spirit, it has no soul, no real consciousness, and does not have a real spiritual world like us, everything in it is taken for granted.

Tan Jian's personality is actually a bit weird, for example, he speculated in stocks, it was twelve o'clock in the evening, at that time, it was obviously meaningless to look at the data, he would still hold the stock trading software and ponder, which has always puzzled me, because in my heart, Tan Jian has always been a person with a poisonous mouth but a high IQ, this kind of high-IQ person, the most low-IQ behavior, itself is very strange.

I didn't go to my heart before, I'm smart, this kind of person always has some quirks that ordinary people can't understand.

At this moment, there is another reason why I suspect that Tan Jian is the corpse king, because Zhou Xuanye is in the same vein of refining corpses, and many coincidences come together, so it is not a coincidence.

Could it be that the boss I know with turtle hair, cleanliness, and poisonous tongue doesn't exist at all? What is the projection of the spirit? It's like an artificial intelligence computer program, it will talk to you and calculate itself, but no matter how similar it is to a human, it is not * and the brain that make it up after all, but the program and data.

This is the essential difference.

The scattered spirits gathered in the process of refining corpses are Tan Blade's programs and data, and this corpse is the output hardware.

I touched my face, and I was stunned.

Non-existent?

A living person, who I think is like a brother, is, unexpectedly, not existing?

At this moment, a lot of images flashed through my mind. When I met for the first time in the office, this turtle-haired bull coaxed people to look at people out of the corner of their eyes, and asked me to hand a pen for a while, and a paper for a while; Let's go to the downtown to find those two gangsters to avenge Gu Xin, go to the desert together, go to the jungle together, in order to get rid of the fox fairy, we went to the Thunder Valley, went to Yumen, and went to the icy and snowy Xiaofusang.

Along the way, although they often hurt each other and expose the black pot, and occasionally pit their teammates, they are regarded as brothers who intersect with life and death in their hearts. Even if I knew that Tan Jian and Zhou Xuanye had a lot of secrets, even if I knew that many things were unusual, I didn't go out of my way to reveal them.

But now, a growing truth is telling me that your brother does not exist.

It's like if you're dating online, you meet a goddess, and when you love her and come to propose, you suddenly find out that the other party is a computer chat software, and you've been fucking in love with a program?

I don't know how long it took, maybe only a few dozen seconds, maybe more than ten minutes, I wiped my face fiercely, raised my head and looked at Zhou Laoer. He seemed to know it and said, "Figured it out?" ”

I said, "Zhou Er, don't play dumb riddles with me anymore, what's going on?" What is your identity and purpose? "This bastard has been hinting that Zhou Xuanye has a bad heart for me, I used to think that he was sowing discord, but now Tan Jian's matter makes me a little suspicious.

Why should Zhou Xuanye be unfavorable to me?

I am now a golden muscle and jade bone, if he now takes a fancy to my golden muscle and jade bone, and turns his face against me and wants to harm me, then he still said it in the past, but the golden muscle and jade bone is only a recent thing, what about before that? And why before that?

Foresee?

Zhou Lao Er paced around Tan Jian on the ground, his expression was full of malice, and said, "Why should I tell you? Not being able to kill you twice has already hurt my self-esteem severely. I'm just waiting to see the show now, and see how you have been made so desperate by your trusted brother that you can't survive, you can't die...... Remember, I'm a person who hates other people's feelings and hypocrisy the most. After saying this, he squatted down and pushed Tan Blade: "Wake up." ”

Within two clicks, Tan Jian's eyelids moved, as if he was about to wake up. At this moment, Zhou Lao Er said in a weird manner: "I don't want to tell you the truth, maybe Zhou Xiaosan will?" You can try it and see if he tells you his true purpose, tsk...... Poor thing. As soon as the words fell, the yin and yang weird face full of malice changed suddenly, and then he suddenly said: "Tiangu, don't believe what he said!" ”

I know, Zhou Lao Er is gone, and Zhou Xuanye is back.

There was no time for face-to-face communication, because Tan Jian had already woken up, this turtle hair sat up suddenly, and then quickly observed the surrounding environment, and when he saw Zhou Xuanye, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "You kid finally came out." ”

Zhou Xuanye didn't have a smile on his face, he was obviously very clear about everything that happened before, he only took out his clothes from the equipment bag and motioned for Tan Jian to change them first.

Tan Jian obviously has a memory, he glanced at me with a look that he had never seen before, and said lightly: "If you're afraid, get out." ”

I said, "I'm going to be afraid of you?" Joke, not long ago, I removed the word fear from my dictionary. ”

Tan Jian's expression improved a little, and he explained: "The ghost figurines were too powerful before, and they had to go out of the situation, what is this place?" ”

I said; "I don't know, probably the water, rain and frost brought me here to hide from you, and I naturally disappeared."

Tan Jian nodded and asked Zhou Xuanye, "What about Immortal Aunt Ke?" ”

Zhou Xuanye opened his mouth, as if he was about to speak, but at this moment, a light suddenly hit in the distance, and then an unfamiliar voice shouted: "He's here!" Before we could react, there was a series of gunshots, Zhou Xuanye reacted quickly, pressed me and Tan Jian down at the same time, avoided the gun's strafing, and shouted: "Run!" ”
