Chapter 6: The Stranger Comes (2)

The person who was invited into the house by Fan Jiyun was none other than the old ghost that Shu Jingcheng and Ryazan had seen when they were in Sichuan.

The old ghost walked into Fan Jiyun's house with a smile, and when he saw Shu Jingcheng pointing a pistol at him, he didn't feel nervous at all, but said very indifferently: "Young man, take it easy, don't be so nervous, I've heard of your marksmanship." ”

Shu Jingcheng didn't put down the gun immediately, he looked at Fan Jiyun, and saw that Fan Jiyun was also smiling, so he slowly put the gun down.

Liu Zhen looked at the person in front of him, although he didn't know the old ghost, but after following Fan Jiyun for so many years, he had heard of the name of the old ghost. However, for so many years, he had never heard that Fan Jiyun still had a relationship with the old ghost.

Of the people seated, only Ryazan reacted calmly, but it could also be seen from his eyes that Ryazan was also a little caught off guard by the sudden visit of the old ghost.

"What's going on?" Shu Jingcheng asked.

Fan Jiyun waved his hand and said, "Jingcheng, you sit down first, and we'll talk slowly." ”

The old ghost entered the house, and he didn't know if it was because of his natural aura or because he often practiced some yin and evil spells, and as soon as he stepped into the door, the air seemed to become a little cold.

After the old ghost came in, he only exchanged a few words with Fan Jiyun and then shifted his gaze to Ryazan, showed a strange smile, and said, "Ryazan, it's good to come in?" ”

Ryazan seemed to be a little afraid of the old ghost, he slowly lowered his head and said, "It's okay." ”

The old ghost smiled and said, "The bronze coin I gave you, you still use it?" ”

Ryazan said: "In the old man's cave in Shennongjia, Hubei, it was used on the body of the red-striped dragon spider, and there is no more. ”

"Red-veined dragon spider," the old ghost thought for a moment and said, "No wonder, thousands of years old Gu worms." ”

Liu Zhen and Shu Jingcheng couldn't help but be surprised when they saw that the old ghost seemed to have known Ryazan for a long time, and asked Fan Jiyun, "Teacher, what's going on?" Ryazan he with this...... This old gentleman has known each other for a long time? ”

Before Fan Jiyun could speak, the old ghost said: "Yes, Ha Luha, of course I know, Ryazan is the only apprentice in my life." ”

Liu Zhen's eyes widened, and he asked Fan Jiyun, "Teacher, why have you never told me about this kind of thing?" ”

Fan Jiyun was not taboo, sat on the sofa and said: "Liu Zhen, there are some things, you don't need to know the Tao in the first place. After speaking, Fan Jiyun turned his head to Shu Jingcheng again and said, "Jingcheng, in fact, the reason why you were able to succeed in stealing the corpse of the turtle spirit this time was because of Mr. Ghost's secret help. ”

Shu Jingcheng's plain appearance set off a trace of waves in his heart, although he looks quiet and quiet on weekdays, but he is extremely strong in his bones, as soon as he heard that he and Ryazan went to the priest's burial pit of the ancient Shu Kingdom this time to steal the body of the turtle spirit was actually secretly helped by others, his heart was suddenly a little unhappy.

The old ghost is quite involved in the world, and he can see what Shu Jingcheng is thinking at a glance, and he said with a smile: "Young man, don't be discouraged, the task of the two of you has been completed quite well." It's just that you underestimate the insight of the organization and the Nanwu gang too much, do you really think that just the two of you can easily break into the grave and steal the turtle spirit's body beyond the sight of so many people? ”

Shu Jingcheng and Ryazan lowered their heads, thinking about their previous experiences in the ancient Shu Kingdom. Indeed, the actions of the two of them along the way were almost completely smooth sailing, without a bit of ups and downs, but the two of them were skilled, and it was inevitable that they were a little arrogant psychologically, thinking that this was the high level of the two of them. In fact, otherwise, the old ghost had already noticed their existence, and the reason why they were not exposed was because the old ghost secretly had an agreement with Fan Jiyun, and for this agreement, not only Shu Jingcheng and Liu Zhen, but even Ryazan who was the only apprentice of the old ghost did not know at all.

Liu Zhen was an anxious person, and he somewhat didn't understand what was happening in front of him, so he asked directly: "Teacher, what is going on with all this?" ”

Fan Jiyun and the old ghost looked at each other and smiled, and the old ghost said: "This is just some agreement between me and Mr. Fan, the two of us have a common pursuit, so naturally we came together by some coincidence." ”

Under Liu Zhen's repeated questioning, the old ghost and Fan Jiyun told the two of them about their cooperation to the three young people.

First of all, Fan Jiyun and the old ghost were both members of the organization, although Fan Jiyun didn't stay in the organization for many years before choosing to launch the whole line, but, during this period, he still got acquainted with this strange talent nicknamed the old ghost.

Fan Jiyun and the old ghost are both geniuses, although there are many differences in some behaviors and ways of dealing with the world, but all geniuses have something in common, so the two of them eventually became good friends.

The reason why Fan Jiyun quit the organization was simple, because he had doubts about the organization's plans. In fact, the members of all organizations understand the ultimate purpose of the organization to a greater or lesser extent. In principle, the organization and Nanwu have one thing in common, that is, both of them hope that the Wuzong can be resurrected. But for what happened after the resurrection of the Wu Sect, the two groups had completely different plans.

The people of the organization belong to the government, although today's world is a world that emphasizes the development of science and technology, but within the whole world, no country dares to completely ignore the supernatural, any country has a special organization department engaged in metaphysical research, if there are some supernatural forces in this world, then any country and region will undoubtedly hope to take this power as its own. Naturally, the people of the organization are no exception. The organization hopes that after the resurrection of the Wu Sect, it will be able to imprison the Wu Sect and study it, and even use its powerful supernatural power to use its armed forces.

However, some in the organization are completely negative about such plans. Fan Jiyun is undoubtedly the most radical of them all. He believed that if there really existed the Wu Sect in this world, then it would be absolutely impossible to control the Wu Sect with the regular power of the organization. Secondly, according to legend, the main purpose of the resurrection of the Wuzong is to destroy modern civilization and restart the cycle of civilization, and the reason why this is done is to keep trying and finally create a perfect form of civilization. Fan Jiyun and others believe that modern civilization is the inevitable product of the continuous development of ancient civilization, even if there is really a cycle of civilization, how many times the reincarnation can only get the same result, and the meaning of destroying today's civilization is to include the destruction of all people in this world, which is also what Fan Jiyun does not want to see.

Of course, this is just an official statement, in fact, Fan Jiyun still has his own selfishness in it. More than twenty years ago, he learned from a friend that there really could be some kind of immortality in this world.

Immortality - this was once the dream of many people, and the nightmare of many people.

Since Fan Jiyun had never obtained immortality, he naturally had no way of knowing the pain of immortality. Fan Jiyun's pursuit of immortality quickly resonated with the old ghost.

The old ghost is a man who is proficient in witchcraft, and it stands to reason that he should look down on this life and death. However, he is a ghost keeper, specializing in studying all kinds of yin and evil techniques, digging graves and throwing corpses, and putting away the spirit for his own use. Although the thousands of dead souls he controlled could now be driven by him, as long as one day the old ghost began to grow old, the decay of the yang energy in his body would inevitably be eaten by these yin ghosts, and at that time, as soon as the old ghost died, his own soul would definitely be retaliated against by other lonely souls and wild ghosts, and he might not even be able to reborn. The old ghost muttered deeply, and he naturally knew it all too well.

The old ghost is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that his soul will be scattered, but once the spell of the Yin Soldier Ghost Formation begins to follow, it is equivalent to having no way out, if you want to avoid the situation of your soul being scattered, the only thing you can do is to live, live desperately, or to put it bluntly - immortality.

Therefore, the old ghost finally walked with Fan Jiyun, Rao is like this, whether the old ghost has other plans in his heart, Fan Jiyun does not know.

After Liu Zhen and Shu Jingcheng listened to Fan Jiyun tell how he met the old ghost, they looked at Ryazan and asked, "Then when did Ryazan become the apprentice of this ghost gentleman?" ”
