Hearing the sound, Qi Ran hurriedly walked out of the room with Xiaomei in his arms, and just happened to see the mysterious man coming out of his room.

Wu Ma Tiancai and Su Ze followed behind Qi Ran and also walked out.

"Master!"

Seeing the mysterious man, Wu Ma Tiancai dragged his round body and quickly "rolled" to the mysterious man, in his opinion, this was his master.

Ten days in the room, the man came out and stretched out without any image, and then looked at the Wu Ma Tiancai in front of him, looking like he didn't know you.

"This little ...... Fat friend, you recognize the wrong person. ”

Wu Ma Tiancai's heart sank, and he cried and said: "Master, I know that I didn't contribute to the matter of the senior brother a few days ago, but I have my own hardships, and the senior brother has forgiven me, Master, your prime minister can support the boat in his belly, he shouldn't blame me." ”

"What's the matter?"

The mysterious man scratched his head, feeling a little inexplicable, and then took off the straw hat on his head, revealing a grayish and messy hair, coupled with a haggard face and a thin body.

How do you look like an old man who is over half a year old, and the domineering Xuanji powerhouse in the square at that time is completely incompatible.

Qi Ran handed Xiaomei to Su Ze, walked over, patted Wu Ma Tiancai's shoulder, and said, "Fatty, I will talk to Shizun about you, now I have something to say to Shizun, you go to the living room first." ”

"Okay. Wu Ma Tiancai hung his head and turned to leave.

After Wu Ma Tiancai left, Qi Ran pulled the mysterious old man into the room.

"Who are you?" Qi Ran asked impatiently, closing the door.

"I'm your master, what's the matter?

"Cross the river and tear down the bridge?" Qi Ran was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the mysterious man had the conditions to come forward to save him.

"Okay, even if you are my master, then what is your name? What is the name of our sect? What is your position in it?"

The mysterious old man casually found a chair and sat down, resting his left foot on his right leg, and scratching the soles of his feet with one hand without any image.

After listening to Qi Ran's question, the old man thought for a while, and said: "I haven't thought of the name yet, this matter will be handed over to you, as for my position, of course it is the sect master." ”

Seeing the old man's indecent sitting posture and movements, the corners of Qi Ran's mouth couldn't help twitching.

However, when he heard what the old man said, Qi Ran held his forehead, and he had a feeling of wanting to roll his eyes, feeling that the sect in the old man's mouth had not yet been established, and he didn't even have a name, and there were only two people in the number plus him.

But soon, Qi Ran's expression became serious, and he asked solemnly, "Why me?"

The reason why he asked this was that Qi Ran didn't believe that this mysterious old man would save him for no reason, there must be some reason for it.

"Good boy, even if you are smart, you have thought of the key point so quickly, then I won't beat around the bush. ”

The mysterious old man's body stood up suddenly, and his whole body was shocked, as if he had changed people in an instant, "I came to Moon City to look for you, to be precise, to find your master, but now it's all the same." ”

"Boy, now that I am your master, my business is your business, you have to help as a teacher. ”

At the end of the words, the old man turned back into the sloppy old man again, grabbing Qi Ran's arm, looking pitiful.

Qi Ran was a little dumbfounded, how could a person's temperament change so much in an instant.

At the moment when the old man stood up suddenly, Qi Ran felt that the person standing in front of him seemed to be a big mountain, unclimbable.

And now, looking at him looks more like an old scoundrel.

Glancing at his brows, Qi Ran said: "You saved me, I should help you, tell me what it is, if I can do it, I will do my best." ”

The old man immediately smiled and said, "I'll just say that you kid won't be so ungrateful, this matter is just a gesture for you." ”

As he spoke, the old man raised a palm, and there was a bulge the size of a fingernail in the palm of his hand, and if he looked closely, this bulge was still squirming, and there seemed to be something alive in it.

"This is?" Qi Ran wondered.

Suddenly, the old man took a deep breath, his eyes revealed a little haggard, and he sighed: "Inside is a corpse Gu, an extremely vicious Gu worm. ”

Hearing this, Qi Ran's heart moved, and he silently took a step back, although he hadn't heard of any corpse Gu, but as long as it was related to Gu, it was generally not a good thing.

Qi Ran's subtle movements did not escape the old man's eyes.

"You won't treat me as a Gu cultivator, will you?" The old man smiled bitterly and said, "My purpose in looking for you is to help me kill this corpse Gu, with this corpse Gu here, my cultivation will always regress, and in the end, my Xuan power will be exhausted and I will die." ”

"Let me help you kill this Gu?" Qi Ran was surprised, "Your cultivation is much higher than mine, why don't you do it yourself?"

The old man lowered his arms, put his hands behind his back, and explained, "I want to, but I can't. Once the corpse Gu enters the body, it can be easily forced out and killed within a day, but if it exceeds a day, there is no other way than for the Gu caster to take it back. ”

Although Qi Ran had doubts in his heart, he didn't ask, he knew that the old man hadn't finished speaking.

Sure enough, after a pause, the old man continued: "Originally, I thought I was going to die, but when I passed through Lincheng, I overheard several rich children talking, saying that a mysterious black-robed man appeared in the secret realm outside Moon City, and this mysterious black-robed man could ignore the Xuanbing enchantment arranged by the Heavenly Dao and easily pocket the Xuanbing. ”

"So I came to Moon City, wanting to try my luck and see if I could meet this mysterious black-robed man. ”

"Does this have anything to do with killing the corpse Gu?" Qi Ran couldn't help but be curious in his heart and asked.

"Maybe there is, maybe not. The old man shook his head slightly.

"Once the corpse Gu enters the body of someone other than the Gu caster, it will suck the host's Xuan power all the time until the Xuan power is exhausted. And one day after the corpse Gu enters the host's body, a layer of Xuanli enchantment will automatically be generated on the surface of this corpse Gu, a Xuanli enchantment of the same origin as this host. ”

"This layer of enchantment not only binds the corpse Gu and cannot leave the host's body, but at the same time, the host does not dare to easily break this layer of enchantment, because this layer of enchantment is connected to the host's Xuanhai, once the barrier is broken, the host's Xuanhai will no longer exist, and at that time, the host will become an ordinary person. ”

"If the corpse Gu is allowed to survive in the body, the host's cultivation will only retreat, not only that, but every time you use the Xuan Power in the Xuan Sea, it is a kind of pain, like ten thousand insects eating bones, and it will cause harm to the body after a long time. ”

"This corpse Gu in my body has been seven years old, and at my age, once I become an ordinary person, it is tantamount to running out of oil. ”

"And you, perhaps, is my hope!"

The old man looked at Qi Ran with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
