Chapter 073: Old Immortal
"Childish. Guan Guan looked at him and couldn't laugh or cry.
The firefly boy flew crookedly, as if listening to a conversation between the two men.
A long time ago, there was indeed a saying that monsters begged for seals, but ...... It's a joke for people who haven't seen a demon with their own eyes, or a wake-up call for children to prevent them from talking to strangers at will.
But since the demon rebellion, mortals' imagination of "demons" has long surpassed such trivial things as "begging for seals".
Demons are tyrannical, and people have reason to believe that what they want to do and what they don't want to do, they don't need to ask mortals first.
"Guan Guan?" Seeing her pondering, Sima Ling thought that he had made a very unskilled joke.
"Sima Ling," her face did become serious, "and I ask you, your mother...... Is it really a demon?"
Before he could reply, she hurriedly added, "Don't lie." ”
Well?
What does she look like...... Suddenly reminded him of a certain taste.
Or is it the topic?
...... Don't lie.
Taste has always been the most difficult memory to preserve. But her pouting and frowning look really made him smell a burst of flowers.
It wasn't the scent of any kind of flower he had ever smelled in this world, with the blur of the beginning of time, as if it had been pieced together from chaos.
And her gentle nudge pulled him back to reality.
"Sima Ling, let me ask you. ”
All right...... Why did she think she could talk to herself so much?
"Guan Guan, my mother is a demon, and the master told me. As for...... Whether she knows it or not, I can't be sure. ”
"You just listened to what your master said?" Guan Guan frowned and tilted his head, "Is it possible then, your master made a mistake, you are not a demon?"
"Half-demon. ”
"Good...... Is it possible that it's not a half-demon?"
"You ......" he wanted to ask her if she minded that way, he was half-demon.
After thinking about it, I still didn't ask.
She is just a woman in the rivers and lakes, and her vision is always limited.
She hates demons, no doubt about it. And now she asked, is it possible, she has nothing to do with demons.
"In five days, you'll understand, Guanguan. He said.
"Five days?"
She wanted to ask, but the Firefly Boy suddenly jumped in the air, as if to say something.
"What's going on with it?" Guan Guan asked.
"Here we are," he said, taking her hand.
I did reach the top of the mountain before I knew it, but ...... This bare mountaintop, with only steep cliffs on both sides, how can it look like a fairy dwelling?
"Jump down. ”
Before he could shout, he was suddenly picked up by his waist and jumped down the cliff.
The feeling of riding the wind is like a bird flying in the sky.
The firefly boy also turned into a shallow halo, seemingly protecting the two of them.
In order not to fall, she had to reach out and grab him by the collar.
"Do you want me to go to see Master in disheveled clothes?"
She thought about it, hurriedly let go of her collar, and reluctantly put her arms around his neck.
After not waiting for five days, he gave her another half-demon evidence-
How can a mortal fly?
At the bottom, the firefly boy retracted into a small bean-like one.
The bottom of the valley was covered with layers of clouds and mist, as if it were the top of a mountain in another place.
In the clouds is a clear pool.
Over here...... It does look like a place where the gods live.
It's just that at the foot of Weishan Mountain, where is this pool of water?
"This is ......"
Sima Ling smiled slyly: "When you see the old fairy, remember to kowtow." ”
“...... Oh. ”
The firefly boy quietly disappeared at some point, and the gentle squeak had disappeared in his ears, perhaps he had completed today's task, and he had to go back to the nest to make up for sleep.
"Come here, step here. Sima Ling pointed to a small bamboo raft in the mist.
Close your feet a little, and then you will fall on the bamboo raft.
The bamboo raft took them to the other side of Qingtan, and they vaguely saw that there was indeed a single house in the fog, and at first glance it was a reclusive master.
As the bamboo raft got closer and closer to the hut, Guan Guan felt that the breath in his body was getting more and more full.
She didn't know what kind of breath it was, but she felt indescribably comfortable.
The breath swirled around her, like a good night's sleep, and she woke up so energetic.
Speaking of sleeping...... She hadn't slept in days.
After the bamboo raft reached the opposite bank, Sima Ling led her into the house without greeting her.
The things in this hut are very simple, almost empty, but when you enter this room, you feel indescribably fulfilling.
"It's coming. Outside the door, an old voice rang out.
The white-haired old man came from the vast smoke and waves, and Guan Guan was shocked.
She had never seen someone so old.
The extreme longevity that mortals can imagine is only a hundred. Although it is a troubled time, an old man with a long life span of 100 years, Guan Guan has also seen it.
How old they are is also something she can imagine.
And the old man in front of him was almost as old as a skeleton, as if he had only a body of bones and wrinkled skin.
"Sit. The old man said that his voice was no different from that of an ordinary old man.
"I've seen Master. Sima Ling said respectfully.
Guan Guan also hurriedly bowed his hand.
"Okay, this girl is-"
When he saw Guan Guan, the old man's voice suddenly stopped.
He was silent for a moment, and a pair of cloudy pupils in his sunken eye sockets stared at her for a long time.
After a while, he finished the question just now.
"—who is it?"
"It's the person the Canglang Alliance wants. Sima Ling said.
"What?" Guan Guan shook up from his seat, "what do you want?"
"Sit down, child," said the old man, "and I'll see." ”
A pair of old eyes looked at her, and said pointedly: "Sixuan Sect Holy Maiden...... Really?"
It sounded like he was asking himself.
"Guan Guan, I have an agreement with the Canglang Alliance, if I can marry the Holy Maiden of the Sixuan Sect, except for one opponent for them, they can maneuver between the Hachi Wolf Clan for me. Sima Ling explained.
This...... It makes sense.
But last night's ......
"...... the snake girls?"
"Yes, not all of them are loyal to Yan Qi. Two of them are spies of the Canglang Alliance. ”
Xu was afraid that the master would hear it, so he leaned closer to her ear again: "So, you have to act seriously, forgive me for not telling you in advance." ”
Guan Guan blushed.
But......
"So what?" she wondered, what does this have to do with the master who came to see him today?
"You......" Sima Ling shook his head.
The "old fairy" smiled tacitly. He beckoned to Guan Guan and motioned for her to come closer.
Guan Guan sat beside him, only to feel that the full qi he had felt before was even stronger.
Is it really a god?
Guan Guan has always liked the old man, and the old man is now looking at her with love in his eyes, raising his hands a little tremblingly, and forming an Inca.
Suddenly, Guan Guan only felt a tingling pain in the inside of his arm, as if he had been burned by something, and a few fragments that were too fast to see clearly flashed in his brain - it seemed to be the Qianhuan Hall last night.
Is it a delusion? The old man smiled with relief.
What's even more amazing is that Guan Guan's hair that was originally scattered flew up by himself at this time, and automatically pulled a bun......
"Well," Sima Ling nodded, "I do feel like a bride." Thank you, Master. ”
"This trick will definitely be able to blind the eyes of the Canglang Alliance. From now until the Lantern Festival, the trick will not disappear, and nothing will go wrong. The old man said.
Through his sleeve, Guan Guan touched the inside of his arm with a very small movement, but he was shocked-
Her palace sand is gone.
"This ...... What's going on......"
"Don't worry, girl, it's just a trick. I, the disciple, have the most ideas on the sidelines, and this time, I bothered the girl to protect the peace of the great summons with him. ”
Guarding the peace of the Great Summons?
If it was a few days ago, Guan Guan really couldn't connect these words with Sima Ling, the king of Nanliang.
"Born in troubled times, I can't help myself," Sima Ling smiled evilly, "Aifei, you will know when the time comes, only the gods can help us in this matter." ”
There is no comment.
After that, Sima Ling let her stay alone by the Qingtan for a while, and he and the master discussed alone for half an hour.
After bidding farewell to the master, Sima Ling took her and jumped back to the top of the mountain-
She really couldn't understand why she had to use her feet when she could jump up.
And why did you ride a horse when you came?
On the bank of Qingtan, the old man stood with his hands behind his back, and let out a vicissitudes of life and a little choked exclamation: "In the troubled times of the mortal world, you really married a 'mediocre king'......"
