Chapter 70: Cooperation
Seeing that the old gentleman was silent for a long time, Fang Bai and Lin Tian looked at each other, and they were also a little nervous in their hearts, there were not too many cultivators they had encountered on the cultivation path, Lin Tian was a little more, but basically there were only a few.
Although the old gentleman who finally met now has been a ghost for many years, it is precisely because he has passed away for so many years that he has clearly seen the vicissitudes of life for so many years, and the knowledge he understands and what he thinks in his heart is far from the degree that the two of them can speculate, Lin Tian really hopes that he will have such a strong man by his side to help, but at present, everything depends on the will of the other party, if the other party is really unwilling, they will naturally not force each other.
The old gentleman is indeed a little entangled at this moment, and it seems that following Lin Tian is indeed a good choice at the moment, after all, although this young man is strong, he is not like other cultivators, he is completely able to use his strength reasonably while mastering great power.
In his opinion, Lin Tian was indeed a very good host, not to mention that the other party had promised him that as long as he was willing, he could always live in the soul ring to nourish his soul, if he met a certain Dao Master this time, I am afraid he would not get such generous conditions.
There are also many cultivators who are specifically looking for an old ghost like him, and they are also trying to keep them by their side and do some help for them, but for the same purpose, the practical means are not the same as gentle.
Lin Tian and Fang Bai just wanted to keep themselves by their side to solve their problems and puzzles, but if they were other Daoists, they might want to use the soul power they had cultivated for so many years to improve their strength.
That's right, this is not only that he is hiding Lin Tian and Fang Bai, but also one of the main purposes of his fancy to these two young people.
This is because they don't know much when they are young, so they don't understand that the most important value of an elderly ghost is not only the knowledge of those hundreds of years, but also the soul power he has contained for so long.
Human cultivators master aura, but after becoming ghosts, they can also become ghost cultivators and continue to cultivate, and the greatest power in their bodies at this level is the power of the soul.
Soul power is not only acquired over time, but most importantly, it can also be replenished by depriving other ancient ghosts of their soul power.
Cultivators are human beings, not gods, and no matter how long they cultivate, they are just mortals with great power, and there will always be a day when they will grow old and die.
And if you want to continue to transform into a ghost cultivator and exist in the world after death, then the only way is to use the power of the soul to continue cultivating.
In a way, this is also a way to live forever.
Although they have been together for a while, the old gentleman can probably judge the personality of Lin Tian and Fang Bai through his sharp eyes, but after all, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, and he is not sure if these two people will be moved to deal with him after learning that they can have a way to live forever, he has lived for hundreds of years, he does not dare to bet.
However, although he didn't expose the matter, he still thought that the two people in front of him were the most suitable people for him to follow at the moment, so after thinking about it, the old gentleman nodded happily.
Fang Bai was overjoyed, his excitement was written on his face, and he looked at Lin Tian excitedly: "Brother Tian, Brother Tian!" From now on, we'll get a goldfinger grandfather! ”
Lin Tian smiled, although the old gentleman was full of joy and anger, but after all, Lin Tian was a person who had cultivated the golden light spell, he could feel that the old gentleman was indeed engaged in a fierce emotional struggle in his heart, he didn't know why he needed to be so entangled to join a certain camp, but it could indeed know that the old gentleman was hiding something.
Although he really wanted to recruit a capable subordinate, no matter who came, it was naturally impossible for him to dig out his heart and lungs like Fang Bai, so he could still accept that the other party had some little secrets hidden in his heart.
“…… Then congratulations in advance on our happy cooperation, sir, I don't know what your identity was before, and what should we call you? Lin Tian suppressed the countless mood changes in his heart and said to the old gentleman.
He just waved his hand and chuckled: "My surname is Guan, just call me Guan Lao, don't look at me I died early, in fact, I was just a nobody at the time, this is Mr. You have been shouting for so long, and it is indeed a little tormenting for me." ”
Although the other party is so humble and suppresses his identity very low, Lin Tian knows very well that the other party is just humble, even if there were countless strong people who were full of spiritual energy in the past era, but now those strong people have all fallen, and he, the person who claims to be mediocre, has lived until now, and he is already stronger than countless opponents in this alone.
What's more, he knows too much, not only the things he has learned about in the past few hundred years after becoming a ghost, I am afraid that the other party was very knowledgeable and knowledgeable when he was still a human being, and he knew a lot of things in the cultivation world, maybe it was because of this that he was assassinated and fell.
"The old gentleman is too humble, then we will call you Guan Lao in the future, and you can just call us by our name."
Now that the problem of the big spider has been solved, the ghosts of this building have basically been cleaned up by them, and there is no trace of yin qi anymore.
Not only that, Lin Tian found that the layers of clouds shrouded outside the building had completely dispersed at this time, and the blood-red eyes that were hidden in the clouds before were all gone, and he guessed that the ghost that was originally hidden on the fourth floor might be related to these eyes, and now they were likely to leave together when they saw that the situation was not good.
He relayed his thoughts to Guan Lao, and he also wanted to know if the other party knew what those blood-colored eyes were.
Guan Lao listened to his analysis and nodded approvingly: "Those blood-red eyes are also a very powerful ghost as you think, and their combat power is by no means lower than the fierce ghost king you met before, and they are even better than him in intelligence, and now they can judge the situation so quickly, and disappear immediately when they see that the situation is wrong, it can be said that they are also very wise among ghosts." ”
It's not about powerful monsters, it's about your enemies being very smart!
As soon as he analyzed it like this, Lin Tian felt that it was a bit of a mistake to give them the opportunity to leave before, not only in terms of points, but also because he really felt that it was not appropriate to let them leave.
