Chapter 599: Separation
The moment the thin man pushed the door and walked out, he happened to see a few of us. ………… I saw his gaze startled, and then a soft look. That's what it really looks like to see an old friend.
But this muted color didn't last long. The thin man's expression gradually became as cold as before.
I was a little disappointed and said, "I thought he was going to be thin again." ”
The abbot said behind me, "Don't worry, that look just now is a seed, and he will slowly change back." ”
The thin man walked up to us, and said politely and distantly, "What are you all doing here?" ”
At this time, the old man suddenly pushed the door and came in. Seeing that the thin man had woken up, he hurriedly saluted: "Immortal, you have finally woken up, our whole village has been waiting for you for a long time." If you don't wake up, we don't know how to live. ”
The corners of the thin man's mouth showed an eerie arc, and he was smiling. Mockery, to be exact.
The thin man waved his hand and said very magnificently, "You go out first." ”
The old man did not hesitate and went out obediently.
I couldn't help but ask, "Are the villagers here really controlled by you?" ”
The thin man smiled slightly and said, "That's right. It's controlled by me. When I studied the Divine Stone, I also learned a little skill from him. The Divine Stone can control the puppet, and I've learned it. ”
We all nodded thoughtfully: "I see." ”
The thin man said: "The hungry people who moved to the Central Plains have died here. And their memories before their deaths left a lot of Ganoderma lucidum. These lingzhi devoured each other, and gradually, they had their own sanity. I've taken control of these villagers here, intending to one day let them help me find the rest of the souls, and then continue devouring them until I find the secret of the Divine Stone. ”
Zhang Yuan suddenly realized: "No wonder you saw the thin man and the remnant soul, and immediately asked us to hand it over, it turns out that they are also the souls you are looking for." ”
The thin man nodded and said, "Now that you are here, I'm afraid I don't have to go to great lengths to ask these villagers." ”
Then he didn't say much to us, pushed the door and went out.
The villagers outside had already knelt on the ground, burning incense and worshipping the Buddha, and said to the thin man, "Immortal, you have woken up." ”
The thin man stood at the door, majestic and radiant: "What are you going to do?" ”
The old man said, "We want to be the same as before. Eat, drink and be merry during the day, and work under the control of your old man at night. ”
The thin man said, "You want to continue to be controlled by me? ”
The men all nodded.
However, the thin man shook his head: "I have already waited for the person I am waiting for, I'm afraid, I won't continue to stay here." ”
When the villagers heard this, they wept bitterly, like mourning. A few of the older ones fainted on the spot.
Many of them were active, and they came up to a few of us and said, "Xu You, Wushuang, you know the immortals, you can intercede, okay?" ”
I sighed in my heart, "What is this?" ”
Wushuang looked at the thin man and said, "You are really not suitable to go out now." ”
The thin man raised his eyebrows: "What do you say?" ”
Wushuang said: "If it was in the past, I would like to take you out of here immediately, and then crack the secret of the Divine Stone." But not now. The mysterious man didn't know where he came from. Thousands of years have passed, but I'm not sure if he's still keeping an eye on you. ”
I said, "Wushuang, what you said is a bit evil. Back then, that mysterious man was already able to defeat the thin man, and after tens of millions of years, he was probably already extremely powerful. This person doesn't seem to exist now. ”
Wushuang waved his hand and said, "There's nothing wrong with being careful. ”
I asked the thin man, "What are you going to do?" ”
The thin man said, "In order to fully understand the secrets of the Divine Stone, you must find the remaining souls. I know where they are. I must lead the way. So this place, I have to leave. ”
When the villagers heard this, they immediately blew up their nests. They all wailed.
We didn't have a big deal. Although Wushuang's worries are not unreasonable, but there are many of us, and it is enough to protect the thin man with heart.
We didn't delay too much here, cleaned up a little and got ready to leave.
Before leaving, I saw the old man looking at the thin man with a sad face, and couldn't help asking, "Old man, when did you come?" ”
The old man said, "More than twenty years ago. ”
I nodded, and then asked, "Have you joined the party?" ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said suspiciously: "No, why do you ask that?" ”
I laughed and said, "It's a pity that you don't join the party." It's a pity for you. ”
Then, I followed the line in front of me and returned to the ground.
It was already dawn outside, and the thin man strode at the front of the line, looked up to the sky and howled, and then said: "All these years, it has been like a dream. ”
The abbot walked up to the thin man and patted him on the shoulder very familiarly: "This dream will wake up soon." ”
The thin man smiled politely at him, "I hope so." ”
We came out of the mountains. Zhang Xin hugged his fist at me: "Xu You, I have to go back." ”
I asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Zhang Xin said: "Go back to the underworld." My sister needs to be taken care of. If there's news, just inform me, Wushuang is the king of Hades, you should know how to contact the underworld, right? ”
Wushuang looked at him a little indifferently: "I'm the Hades King?" So who is in charge of the underworld now? ”
Zhang Xin looked embarrassed: "The wizard is helping you take care of things." ”
Wushuang sneered and didn't say much. That expression clearly said, let you jump for a few days first, and then settle accounts with you when the matter here is over.
The old Hades King asked Zhang Xin: "Have you killed all the yin and imps in the underworld?" ”
Zhang Xin waved his hand again and again: "There is absolutely no such thing." Except for those who were accidentally injured in the battle, the rest were locked up and not killed. We are not people who do no evil, and we do not mutilate living beings for no reason. ”
The old Hades nodded: "It's good to be afraid, you can go." ”
Zhang Xin nodded and left.
Wushuang looked at the old Hades King and said, "These people have forcibly occupied the underworld, which is a bit excessive. ”
The old Hades nodded, "Yes." Especially that wizard, this is the second time. Is it true that there is no one in the underworld? Wushuang, when the divine stone is solved, we will compete with them in the open. ”
Wushuang smiled with his eyebrows: "Ancestor, with your strength, isn't it easy to defeat them?" ”
The old Hades touched Wushuang's head: "Don't put a high hat on me. My strength is better than yours, and it's all thanks to the Divine Stone. If Wen Yu can get out of the control of the Divine Stone, I'm afraid he will be on par with me. When the time comes, who wins and who loses, it will really be weighed carefully. ”
Although the old Hades said this cautiously, she had an expression of impatience on her face. It seems that she has already won the battle.
The fat man looked at the little Taoist priest behind him and said, "This kind of thing, our strength, it seems that we can no longer mix it." ”
I looked at the fat man and said, "Are you going to say goodbye to us too?" ”
The fat man nodded: "When the matter here is over, we will get together again." ”
I asked him, "Where are you going?" ”
The fat man said, "Go into the desert." With my master, it just so happens that your parents are also there. ”
Wushuang said happily: "That's just on the way with us." ”
The fat man hadn't answered yet, and the thin man said a little indifferently: "Their speed is too slow, and the soldiers are fast, we can't wait for him." ”
The fat man smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, you go first, we have to steal a car first." Then he looked at the thin man and said with some emotion, "Be careful." ”
The thin man said succinctly, "You too." ”
Wushuang said to the thin man, "For your safety, you'd better stay inside the peachwood sword." Then she took out the peachwood sword that had shown us the way.
I saw the corners of the thin man's mouth twitch, apparently with some not-so-good memories of the sword. He flatly refused: "I've been in here for thousands of years, and I really don't want to go in anymore." ”
The old Hades said, "All right, let him follow." If the mysterious man is really alive. Even if we hide the thin man, he will notice it. ”
The thin man pointed to the west and said, "Let's go, let's go to the Western Regions." At our pace, let's hope to get there before dark tomorrow. ”
