Xu Han was woken up by the crisp sound of the burning firewood.
He opened his eyes, and they were filled with emerald-like eyes, yellow eyes, and long, narrow pupils like cracks.
It's not a pair of eyes.
Xu Han realized this, and he exclaimed, wanting to stand up.
But this action sent a bone-chilling pain around him, and he sat back down again.
And the owner of those eyes also jumped off Xu Han's body at that time, and his mouth seemed to be extremely dissatisfied and let out a soft cry towards Xu Han: "Meow!"
Xu Han was stunned for a moment, and then he saw that it was a black cat.
He looked in the direction the black cat had left, but saw the black cat scurrying into the arms of a figure.
Xu Han was stunned for a moment, the figure turned his back to Xu Han, and a bonfire was lit in front of him, Xu Han couldn't see his appearance clearly, but felt that his back was a little rickety, and it seemed that he was old.
Why am I here?
This question crept into Xu Han's mind at that time, and he tried to stand up again.
This time, although it was difficult, he succeeded, but there was a piercing pain in his right arm.
He subconsciously stretched out his left hand to cover his painful right arm, but he pounced, he was slightly stunned, looked down, but found that his right arm was already empty.
He remembered it suddenly.
His right arm had been severed during the confrontation with the Shuras.
Xu Han's face turned a little pale at that moment, he looked at his empty right arm a little distractedly, and the emotions in his heart were surging, which was very unpleasant.
"Awake?" said the figure sitting by the campfire, his voice a little old.
Xu Han came back to his senses at this time, he shook his head, covered his bandaged wound, and slowly walked to the figure, only to bow down, but found that he did not have a right arm. He smiled self-deprecatingly, but he could only withdraw his hand, bow his body towards the figure and say, "Junior Xu Han, thank you for saving your life." ”
He remembered that he was chased and killed by several Shura before he fell unconscious, and at that time he vaguely saw an old man holding a black cat not far away, so he thought that he could still appear here alive at this moment, and he must have been rescued by him.
"Saving your life?" But who knew that when the figure heard this, he suddenly turned around, looked at Xu Han, and said with a rather dissatisfied mouth: "I didn't want to save you." ”
"Huh?" Xu Han obviously didn't expect such a response, he was slightly stunned, and only then did he see the person's appearance clearly by the light of the fire.
It was an old man with white hair who looked almost old, his appearance was a little sloppy, he was dressed in linen clothes sewn with various patches, and the white hair on his head had not been taken care of for a long time, and some of it hung down on his forehead. At this moment, he was holding the black cat in his arms, and kept stroking the black cat's body with one hand, and a looming white light continued to pour into the black cat's body along his hand in the process of stroking. And the black cat seemed to enjoy this kind of petting, and it squinted and lay quietly in the old man's arms, and from time to time there was a coquettish purr in its mouth.
"Those bastards in Senluo Palace, in the past thirty years, I have put shit on my head to the old man, and I killed them to make those guys of Ghost Bodhi have a heart and eyes, and don't provoke the old man again. Who would have thought..."Speaking of this, the old man's eyes looked at Xu Han's body for a while, then glanced at his mouth, and said extremely dissatisfied: "It turned out to be a dog-eat-dog drama." ”
When Xu Han heard this, the expression on his face froze, and he understood that the demonic power in his body had revealed his origin, but what made him even more shocked was that listening to what this old man said, he didn't seem to have a good relationship with Senluo Palace. And if Xu Han is not mistaken, Ghost Bodhi should be the name of King Bian Cheng, one of the ten halls of Yama in the Senluo Palace. This old man dared to call him by his name like this, and he should be an equal to him.
"Whether you have a heart or not, it is true that my predecessors saved me, I am gracious, I remember it in my heart, if his predecessors have needs, Xu Han's definition is unavoidable. In the face of such a character, Xu Han naturally did not dare to slack off, he hurriedly said respectfully.
And although these words sound high-sounding, they are from Xu Han's heart.
Qin Keqing gave him half a bun back then, and he could betray Senluo Hall for her today, and the weight of Xu Han's words in his own heart can be seen.
"Just you?" But Xu Han's heartfelt words fell on the old man's ears, but they caused the old man to laugh shamefully. "If you can help me with my favor, then I am afraid there will be no difficulty in this world. ”
Xu Han frowned when he heard this, but his attitude was still respectful.
"If the seniors really want something, but it doesn't hurt to say, Xu Han is willing to give it a try. ”
"Hmph, try, what I'm going to do, no one in the world who is qualified to try it can pass the number of five fingers, you?" the old man's tone was extremely contemptuous, and the boredom wrapped in it was even more undisguised. He stood up and put the black cat in his hand on the ground, and then, he pointed at Xu Han and said, "I don't care what you Senluo Hall is doing, since I saved you, there is no reason to kill you again, you can go, don't dirty my eyes." ”
These fly-repellent words fell on Xu Han's ears, but his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Did the senior say that if you save me, you won't hurt me again?" he straightened up, looked at the old man, and suddenly asked.
In the eyes of the old man, he secretly thought that Xu Han was secretly rejoicing in order to get his life, and this reaction made the old man more and more disdainful of him.
"Yes, old man, I have been in the world for 80 years, and I have always done what I say, so you should go quickly. He said impatiently.
"But the seniors said that you hate Senluo Palace..."Xu Han seemed to hesitate, and he asked worriedly.
"I hate you Senluo Palace's ghostly spirits, but the old man saved you, if he kills you again, wouldn't he slap himself in the face, you should leave quickly." The old man's entanglement with Xu Han seemed to have reached the limit of his patience, and he urged like this, his attitude could be described as extremely bad.
But who knew that when these words came out, Xu Han not only did not have the slightest intention of leaving, but took a step towards the bonfire, walked to the bonfire, and sat down very naturally, he seemed to be in a much better mood, and even stretched out his hand to tease the black cat on the ground at that time.
Xu Han's behavior was obviously beyond the old man's expectations, and he came back to his senses after being slightly surprised, only to see him walk quickly to Xu Han, point to his nose and say, "Boy, what do you mean by this? Do you really think that the old man will not dare to kill you? At a young age, he was anxious to go to Huangquan Road to see the real bull head and horse noodles?"
"The seniors just said that if they saved the juniors, they won't slap themselves and kill the juniors, could it be that if the seniors themselves said it, do you have to regret it now?" Xu Han raised his head at that time, looked at the old man with an innocent face, and asked very suspiciously.
"This...", but the old man who was commanded by Xu Han was suddenly speechless, he was stumbling for a long time, but he was forced to be speechless by Xu Han.
It wasn't until half an hour later that he turned red and said again: "So what? But the old man didn't say that he wanted you to stay!"
"The seniors naturally didn't say it, but the seniors had the grace to save their lives in the younger generations, and the younger generations had nothing to repay, so they had to saddle the horse and serve the seniors. Xu Han replied solemnly, the look on his face was extremely upright, so that the old man couldn't find fault with it.
"Old man, I have been all over the world for 80 years, and I have always been alone, and I don't need you to repay any kindness. Seeing Xu Han's appearance with a dog skin plaster, the old man's head suddenly grew for a while.
Although Xu Han has not read any books, he also knows the truth that the grace of this drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, not to mention that the seniors have saved the lives of the juniors. Whether the seniors need to repay the favor or not is the business of the seniors, and whether the younger generations want to repay the favor is the business of the younger generations. Xu Han didn't have any intention of relenting, he continued to expound his opinion, ignoring the green tendons that had erupted around the old man's temples.
"Besides, the seniors also said that the younger generations are young, so naturally they should not rush to the Huangquan Road. If the younger generation wants to survive, he can only follow the senior. But Xu Han also knew that his tricks could only take advantage of his words, if this old man really wanted to leave, with Xu Han's skills, he couldn't keep up, so he changed his words at that time, and his tone became a little gentle.
"What do you mean?" asked the old man, frowning.
"The seniors also saw it, those people from the Senluo Palace were chasing and killing, and the seniors were outstanding in cultivation, and there was a gap with the Senluo Palace, and there were seniors, and those ghosts and spirits would not dare to make any changes, and the juniors didn't want to die, so they could only follow the seniors. ”
"That's your Senluo Temple's family business, what does it have to do with me. The old man didn't buy it, he snorted coldly.
"But the seniors saved the subordinates, if they let it go, wouldn't it be put to death? What is the difference between this and harming the subordinates? Could it be that the seniors can really be the ones who deceive the world and steal their reputation?" Xu Han saw that the old man was soft and hard, gritted his teeth, and said cruelly.
As he himself said, now that his right arm has been broken and his injuries are serious, if he doesn't grasp the life-saving straw in front of him, what awaits him is a dead end. Xu Han understood this very well, so even if he risked angering the old man in front of him, he had to give it a try.
"This..."Xu Han's crooked reasoning had obviously encircled the old man, and he was speechless for a while. Duan was unable to find the words to refute Xu Han for a long time.
"The juniors have thanked the seniors, and the seniors are assured that the juniors will not cause any trouble to the seniors along the way. Seeing this, Xu Han's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly knelt down at that time and said loudly to the old man.
"You !! old man, don't you..." The old man thought that Xu Han was so helpless, so he wanted to say something more.
"In the future, these things will be handed over to the juniors. But Xu Han was determined to pay attention to this old man, he didn't give him a chance to speak at all, so he walked to the bonfire, and saw a long thing wrapped in a white strip there, Xu Han said this, so he didn't think about lifting it up, ready to carry it on his back.
But as soon as this hand was stretched out, his face changed.
This thing looked like it was less than three feet, but it was so heavy that Xu Han's hand couldn't move it for a while.
"Okay!" Seeing this, the old man's eyes lit up, and his attitude suddenly changed and he walked to Xu Han, "Since you want to follow me, then this thing will be carried for you to help me carry, if you can't carry it one day, then you have to leave by yourself, and then you can't complain about me whether you live or die." ”
As he spoke, the old man stretched out his hand and lifted the thing that seemed like a thousand pounds to Xu Han lightly and put it on Xu Han's back, with a gloating smile on his face.
As soon as this thing entered his shoulder, Xu Han's body was a bow, and dense sweat stains suddenly appeared on his forehead, and his face became extremely pale.
"How?" said the old man, who was even more proud when he saw this, and he asked.
Xu Han knew that he was on the way, but he had no choice.
He gritted his teeth, straightened up with difficulty, looked at the old man and said, "The life of the seniors, the juniors are natural... Naturally, I didn't dare to refuse. ”
His immature face was full of fierceness at that time, like a young eagle that had broken its wings before it could rise to the top, and like an elk that had fallen into the mouth of a tiger in desperation but was still struggling.
There is unwillingness in that ruthlessness, and there is anger in unwillingness.
All of this made the old man stunned inexplicably.
He didn't want to admit it, but in his heart he secretly felt that he was like himself at that time.
In the end, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll see how many days you can last!"
With that, he summoned the black cat and placed it on his shoulder, and walked out into the night.
Seeing this, Xu Han could only grit his teeth and keep up.
But after only a few steps, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked the figure in front of him: "I want to go together, but I haven't consulted the senior daimyo." ”
The man in front of him didn't look back when he heard the words, but an old voice came through the night.
The voice said.
"Cang, sea, flow. ”
