"I have no grudge against you, why do you want to poison me!" Xu Chen's body tensed, and the cold ice sword shone brightly in his hand.

Wang Shen said calmly: "You have said that you are not immersed in poison, what method can I use to harm you?"

"And what's in your wine?"

"Have you ever heard that on the banks of the Lethe River in the underworld, there is a demon flower called a mandala?"

"Don't talk to me, what does this have to do with my poisoning?"

Wang Shen said indifferently: "The petals of the mandala have an innate magic, and the undead wandering in hell can forget all the memories of their previous lives if they eat it by mistake, so the legendary Meng Po soup is refined with this petal as the main ingredient." If a living person risked their lives to pick this petal and bring it to the world, the moment it comes into contact with sunlight, it will take on another effect. ”

"What effect, is it that you can't come back from the dead?" Xu Chen was unconsciously attracted by Wang Shen's words.

"Of course not, it has the opposite characteristics of the underworld in the yang world. ”

"Opposite characteristics?" Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood. "You mean...... Can it restore lost memories?"

"Haha, that's right, it seems that you are not as stupid as I thought. Wang Shen laughed: "Now you know that I have no malicious intent, right?"

Only then did Xu Chen know Wang Shen's true intentions, and he was about to express his gratitude to the other party, when his expression suddenly froze, and an ominous premonition popped up in his mind.

He asked with a cold face: "I can't even remember what happened in that cave, and you are not a roundworm in my stomach, how can you know better than me?"

"I didn't know anything, but something about you told me the truth. After speaking, Wang Shen's left hand, which had been clenched, stretched out, and a strange-looking thing appeared in his palm.

It was a strange thing that was synthesized from the jade pendant given to him by his mentor Garamo and the fragments of the fake Xuanwu shield obtained in Ao An Mountain, Xu Chen still didn't understand why these two things were weirdly combined, but this was the only thing he could prove his identity to Song Wuji, so he always carried it with him, but he didn't expect it to fall into Wang Shen's hands now.

"You actually stole my things!" Xu Chen was shocked, and hurriedly ran over and snatched it back from Wang Shen's hands.

"Steal, do I still need to steal such a worthless thing?"

"It wasn't stolen, how did it get to you?"

"When I helped you to the cave to rest, it fell out of your arms on its own. At this time, Wang Shen's eyes dimmed, and then said: "Actually, I was wrong just now, for people who know the goods, your thing is a priceless treasure." ”

Xu Chen's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking, "Do you know the origin of this thing?"

"Of course I do. Wang Shen suddenly asked him: "Have you ever heard of the two life-and-death battles between Song Wuji and Su Liuyun back then?"

"I've already heard the deeds of the two seniors from the sect leader of Xuantian Gate, Uncle Tie. Xu Chen replied honestly.

"Tie Jiu Gong was the only person other than the person involved who witnessed the two decisive battles with his own eyes, and he naturally knew this matter all too well. Wang Shen sighed, and then said, "Su Liuyun is the only one who has ever caused damage to the Xuanwu Shield, and this thing has something to do with that incident. ”

"The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes, what the hell is going on, tell me quickly!"

"Don't you understand? This thing is the fragment of the Xuanwu Shield that was shot down by Su Liuyun!"

"This, this is impossible!" Xu Chen cried out in a lost voice: "You lied to me, this is definitely not true!"

"What am I doing to lie to you at this age! There are not many people in this world who have seen the Xuanwu Shield, and I am just one of them. Isn't that the best explanation for the fragment in your hand being the exact same material as the Xuanwu Shield?"

Xu Chen asked in disbelief: "The Xuanwu Shield belongs to my Uncle Taishi, and it is usually hidden in a cave that only the previous Chongwu Mountain God Kings know, how can you see it?"

"This ......" Wang Shen stood up, and only after a while did he reluctantly say: "For a thief, there is no treasure in this world that he can't find." ”

"Damn, you've been fighting the idea of the Xuanwu Shield!" Many past events rolled in like a tide, whether it was listening to others or his own personal experience, they were combined in his mind, and Xu Chen seemed to feel that he knew the ins and outs of the whole thing at this moment.

At that time, Song Wuji, the uncle of the Taishi, divided the fragments of the Xuanwu Shield in two, and cast some kind of magic spell or unknown spell on them, and then left half of it in Chongwu Divine Mountain, and the other half was handed over to the monster Shengyu who built the five-story demon tower, and only when they were gathered together again would the spell take effect and restore it to its original appearance.

This fragment is originally a part of the Xuanwu Shield, and there will be a mysterious sense between it and the Xuanwu Shield, with which the Xuanwu Shield will inevitably be found, and if I bring the Aegis back to Chongwu Mountain, the Demon Clan will still have the courage to lead the army to invade the Divine Mountain, so many Protoss disciples will be safe.

In a trance, he heard Wang Shen say: "After all, I have cheated you before, so after saving you this time, I feel that the favor has been paid off, and I wanted to leave you here and leave, until I saw the fragment of the Xuanwu Shield and changed my mind." ”

"At first, I just wanted to fight the idea of the Xuanwu Shield, in order to vent the anger that I had been taught a lesson by Song Wuji when I stole the shield, but I didn't know that you kept calling Garamo's name in a coma, and called him Master, which made me realize that I had misseen you before. ”

"What did you misread about me?" Xu Chen asked subconsciously.

"I haven't spent much time with you, but I also feel that you are a real person, unlike those evil villains who love to engage in intrigues. Since the god king Garama is willing to accept you as a disciple, he must value your character, so I believe that you will never do such a rebellious thing as deceiving your teacher and destroying your ancestors. ”

"Not only did you shout the name of the god king in your dream, but you also said nonsense from time to time that the monster is coming, and the Vermilion Bird Sword is flying, which shocked me too much, I thought you were just connected to the Xuanwu Shield, but I didn't expect that you also had a relationship with the Vermilion Bird Sword, so I let you drink the wine mixed with mandala petal powder that I had been cherishing and reluctant to use, which made me finally see the truth of all things. ”

Xu Chen came back to his senses and asked, "That's why you instructed me to find two divine swords?"

"Yes. Only you can find them, otherwise you wouldn't have experienced so many strange things. After a pause, Wang Shen said again: "More importantly, you are an honest person, I don't have to worry about following you." ”

"Then what benefits can you get from it?" Xu Chen had experienced too many things since he fled from Chongwu Mountain, and he had slowly matured and learned not to trust others easily.

"I've been hiding in Tibet all my life, and I'm not living a human life, and now I don't want to be scared anymore when I'm old, I just want to live peacefully until the moment when black and white impermanence takes me away. ”

He said this very sincerely, Xu Chen was touched in his heart when he heard it, and put himself in Wang Shen's shoes to think that an old man was lonely and miserable, living by stealing things all day long5, this is indeed not the life that normal people should live.

Xu Chen couldn't help asking, "Uncle Wang, why are you living alone, don't you have any relatives?"

"Alas, how can I have relatives, my parents died when I was a child, and when I grew up, I was willful and reckless, and I lived up to the affection of other girls, so I am still alone. ”

"And your master?"

"My teacher passed away twenty years ago. ”

Xu Chen was suddenly a little embarrassed, thinking to himself that I am really stupid, Wang Bodu is so old, his master should have died a long time ago, why did I still ask such a rude word, he had to awkwardly turn around and ask: "Isn't Master Jingkong your senior brother? He has been looking for you, why are you avoiding him, isn't it a good thing for senior brothers to reunite after a long absence?" You can also spend the rest of your lives together!"

"Alas, don't mention it!" Wang Shen sighed and said, "My senior brother is a great hero who stands up to the sky, but I am sorry for him, and I have no face to see him again in this life." After speaking, he turned his back, although Xu Chen couldn't see his facial expression, he also knew that he had touched other people's sad past, so he had to shut up.

After a while, Wang Shen turned around and said in a deep voice: "If you find the Aegis and the Divine Sword, you will be able to take revenge, and I will be able to wash my hands and live comfortably in my old age." ”

Xu Chen touched the back of his head and said, "I don't understand, what does it have to do with you spending your old age in peace when I get the artifact?" After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but change his face and said, "Uncle Wang, you don't want to sell them for money and be a local tyrant on the rich side, right?"

At the beginning of Ao'an Mountain, Wang Shen's idea of fighting the Xuanwu Shield was to make a fortune, and Xu Chen couldn't help but be wary of him.
