The sky gradually brightened, and Ling Ji, who had just come back from Pingcun, had not had time to return to Panlong Town when she was surprised to notice that the snake tail mark in her palm suddenly stinged, and the Gu ant that had been lying on her shoulder jumped into the other party's palm, only to see that the green and shining mark emitted a vague light, and began to show signs of dissipation from the outside in, Ling Ji bit her lip and sensed the situation on the other end from a distance, and said in disbelief: "Lost contact again, old hall master, why does your soul control technique always fail?"

The Gu ant rolled her eyes and glared at her, Ling Ji turned her head in embarrassment and didn't dare to look at him, she was originally just the insect control envoy of the Immortal Palace, this time with the help of Meng Zhou, she was able to forcibly control the monster in the mountain with the snake tail mark on the basis of the insect control technique, but last night she was forced to expose the insect mark in advance in order to get out, and then she lost contact with the monster, and finally this will regain control of its mind, so soon there was an accident again, and then thinking of the mysterious white shadow, Ling Ji was already covered with cold sweat on her forehead, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Is it? Could it be that it was killed? No, that thing is a monster that has been cultivating for 400 years, so it can't be killed so quickly, right?"

The Gu ant ignored her, and searched for the insect marks that were becoming more and more broken in his palm, and he had indeed lost contact again, but was he killed so quickly, or was there some accident?

"Ahem...... Old hall master, what should I do now?" Ling Ji knew that this matter was done on her own initiative, and at this time, she could only put on a smiling face with a good voice, Gu Ant sighed leisurely, her pupils reflected the brighter and brighter sky on Kunlun, and she was also irritable in her heart, and scolded impatiently:" I originally wanted to trap him in Ping Village first, and then lead him to deal with the monster after dawn, so that when he comes back, the sacrifice should have entered Kunlun Mountain smoothly, and now the monster has lost contact and is nowhere to be found, if he returns to Panlong Town through the magic of the heavenly realm, most of them will just collide with the sacrifice!"

Ling Ji knew that she was at a loss, and she didn't dare to talk back, Meng Zhou sighed helplessly, and continued: " I have carved insect marks everywhere before, disguised as a sacrificial array, and drove the ghosts and spirits everywhere to attract attention in all directions, this time also successfully made the Kunlun faction too busy to deal with it, after Panlong Mountain is the real Kunlun territory, naturally there are people waiting here for the sacrifice to throw themselves into the net, but now it seems that how to let the sacrifice into Panlong Mountain is the most difficult, the spirit snake envoy, you go back to Panlong Town first and wait, most of them will be almost able to arrive after noon, I will personally stop Xiao Qianye from letting him come back. ”

Before the words fell, Ling Ji suddenly saw a dark red light coming from the Gu ant's dark pupils, and she only felt a chill shivering behind her, as if there were other people besides Meng Zhou secretly looking at her.

"Old hall master, you ...... Do you want to do it yourself?" Ling Ji asked suspiciously, remembering what he had said before, and asked strangely, "Didn't you say that you can't show up? Once you appear, you will be detected by the Heavenly Realm, so come out now, isn't it...... Didn't you scare the snake?"

"Hmph, if you weren't too successful and more than you could lose, why would I be like this?" Meng Zhou scolded in a low voice, and at the same time a voice laughed lightly, this time Ling Ji heard it clearly, this voice also came from the eyes of the Gu ant, it seemed to be in the same place as the old hall master, she curiously put the Gu ant on the palm of her hand in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, and muttered and asked: "Is there anyone else around you, why do I seem to hear an unfamiliar voice?"

"You are less nosy and do your own thing. The Gu ant's eyes flashed with a stern light, and she was so frightened that she immediately didn't dare to observe further, Ling Ji snorted, her eyes turned quickly, and she reacted very quickly in order not to continue to be scolded: "Old hall master, according to your meaning, as long as the insect marks on the sacrifice are transferred to Yun Qiushui before he rushes back, and then steal the beams and change the pillars without knowing whether it is ghostly, just wait for Yun Qiushui to come in by himself, right?"

Meng Zhou nodded and continued: "It's good that you know, but Kunlun should have been on guard for a long time, you have to find a way to start as soon as possible." ”

"Hmm......" Ling Ji thought about it in a long tone, blinked her eyes and looked at Panlong Town, which was already full of smoke not far away, and had already made up her mind in her heart, and hurriedly assured in a serious manner, "Old hall master, you can rest assured this time, as long as you can hold Xiao Qianye back, don't let him come back so quickly, I promise to transfer the insect mark on the sacrifice to Yun Qiushui unconsciously, and ...... after the matter is completed."

"Do you still dare to talk about the conditions?" Meng Zhou interrupted her impatiently, and Ling Ji immediately responded with a hippie smile, "No, no, where do I dare to talk about the conditions, I just hope that the old hall master will not hesitate to teach me a few other insect control techniques, so that I can have the opportunity to re-strengthen the Hall of Eternal Life!"

As she spoke, she carefully put the Gu ant into her sleeve and quietly returned to Panlong Town through the morning mist.

On the other side, Meng Zhou sighed silently in the darkness, a low smile came from his ears, and a pair of blood-colored pupils gradually appeared in front of him, he was very depressed, but at this moment, he looked at the pair of ill-intentioned eyes, and he was even more dissatisfied, and said in a low voice: "It seems that Mr. has to take action personally, otherwise the sacrifice will be killed and fall short, and it will be even more difficult for your master to find the sacrifice that has the descendants of the two gods of the heavenly realm to escape." ”

The eyes shrank slightly, and then showed all the posture, Meng Zhou was startled, he didn't expect the other party to suddenly appear at such a time, he saw clearly for the first time this partner who had always been with him inside and out, looking at the appearance of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, wearing a thin white clothes, but covered with dark blood stains, he smiled slightly, with a flying and handsome face, under the eyebrows is deep eyes, the figure is not tall and even a little weak, obviously it looks like a teenager, for some reason Meng Zhou felt a chill in his heart, and vigilantly blurted out a question that he couldn't think of himself: "How old are you?"

"XVI. The young man's bright eyes reflected the blood-colored light, exuding a gloomy and terrifying aura, and after a pause, he corrected his words to himself, "When I died, I was sixteen, and now I am more than four hundred years old." ”

"Oh......" Meng Zhou was stunned, he didn't know what to say for a while, and only after a long time he shook his head and let out an incredible laugh, "I think I've lived long enough for three hundred years, but I didn't expect that there are older people around me, so it seems reasonable for me to keep calling you 'sir'?"

The young man just smiled faintly, not seeing any change in his expression, and then said: "It's different, the hall master has lived for three hundred years, and I have been dead for four hundred years, and I think I am still sixteen years old, young." ”

Meng Zhou saw him smiling, his face changed unchanged, and then remembered some of the past things he had heard about the Silent Valley over the years, and suddenly a curiosity surged in his heart, and he took the initiative to ask: "The one in the mountain...... Who are you?"

"Huh?" Hearing this question, the young man's face obviously twitched, and he turned his stiff neck mechanically, and Meng Zhou said unhurriedly: " That year, I wandered around the periphery of Kunlun Mountain and did not dare to go too deep, it was Mr. who took the initiative to find me, which laid out such a subtle situation today, you have said that your master is the fairy under the seat of the Queen Mother of the West, trapped in the valley of the Silent Valley under the water of Tianchi, you have accidentally caused the fairy to get out with the forbidden technique, but the power at that time was still too disparity compared with the residual divine power of the Queen Mother of the West, and the fairy was soon re-bound, but since then the power of the restraint has begun to slowly drain, if you can find a more powerful sacrifice, help the fairy to get out is just around the corner, at that time, the entire Kunlun will be the fairy in the palm of the hand, even if it is hidden in the king, will be forced to give up the valley of speechlessnessand choose to show up and leave. ”

"That's right. The young man nodded, and he didn't know what kind of memories he touched, and his eyebrows slowly frowned.

Meng Zhou looked at him thoughtfully, and directly picked out what he wanted to say: "What was the forbidden technique back then......?" Heh, how did the Tianchi Phantom become your master?"

The young man glanced at him, and time seemed to freeze at this moment, making Meng Zhou feel a chill in his heart, but he just stood motionless for a while, and said lightly: "This is not something you should be curious about, but I don't mind telling you everything back then, the person in the mountain is the person who was controlled by the snake's tail mark in your hand, he is my master, and he is the valley master at that time in the Valley of Speechless." ”

"My name is An Sheng, isn't it a very common name? I am a child in a remote village at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, that year the climate was abnormal, the blizzard fell for a whole year, the snow wolves who could not find food in the mountains began to attack the village, the village was soon gone, I was protected by my father and mother and watched them being torn open by the snow wolf, I could not do anything, I could only wait for death. ”

He closed his eyes and smiled, and when he opened his eyes again, there was a rare soft light in his pupils, like stars in the night, which made Meng Zhou feel an invisible warmth for a moment, and said: "Master happened to pass by there and happened to save me, he took me back to the Valley of Speechlessness, and named me 'Ansheng', saying that he hoped that I could forget this fear and helplessness, and that my future life would be peaceful. ”

"I haven't eaten enough and clothed since I was a child, my body is weak and sickly, and it is very difficult to even hold a sword and swing it, and the magic is even worse, even if the master patiently teaches me, but among his several disciples, I am also the most indisputable, but the master always smiles, never cares about these, he always comforts me, saying that I am more diligent and studious than my brothers, and I will definitely succeed in the future, so that they are impressed. ”

The young man grinned, that smile was really hazy, in extreme contrast with his bloodstained and red eyes, but when he opened his mouth again, his words were diametrically opposed to such a bright expression: "I did it, I did impress them, but in another way, I killed a few senior brothers, dug out the master's heart and dedicated it to the fairy, he must be very incomprehensible, he taught me everything with all he had, but I took revenge and bit him, haha." ”

"Why?" Meng Zhou couldn't help blurting out, unconsciously asking, "Do you hate him? He is so good to you, why do you do this?"

"I don't hate him, and to this day he is still the person I respect the most. An Sheng leaned over to Meng Zhou, suddenly knelt on his knees, broke Meng Zhou's palm with trembling hands, stared blankly at the snake tail mark that was about to disappear in his palm, and didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "He is just too good, he is good at everything, so good that it is like an insurmountable mountain, no matter how hard I try, I can't climb that mountain, and I can't even see the peak from afar!"

Meng Zhou's heart moved, unable to understand this complex emotion, An Sheng suddenly raised his head, his blood-colored eyes widened, and a line of bloody tears dripped down his cheeks to his palm: " I don't know what day it started, there has been a complaining female voice crying in my ears, the sound is from the outer valley Tianchi, but it is a forbidden place, the master never let the disciple approach, I took advantage of the time when he went out to follow the guidance of the sound to sneak closer, and found that there was a very beautiful woman under the water, she was bound by dense divine power, obviously there was no body, but it seemed to have been bleeding, but that strange blood mixed into the heavenly pool, and was immediately purified into clean water. ”

Meng Zhou gasped, it turned out that the battle for power that led to the demise of the Silent Valley back then was actually designed by Phantom Lu?

An Sheng sneered, and his expression finally began to change: "It turns out that the ancient legend of the Valley of Silence is true, there is really a fallen fairy who was imprisoned here forever by the Queen Mother of the West, I once doubted the authenticity of the legend, after all, no one has ever seen such a thing as gods and demons, but after that day, I completely understood, it turns out that the ancient legend is not groundless, and the phantom is a real scourge, hehe...... Scourge. ”

An Sheng laughed madly for some reason, his eyes were full of viciousness, and his eyes were crazy: "I don't believe in ghosts and gods, but if I believe in you and can fulfill my heart's desire, then what about releasing the scourge......? You probably understand what I want?"

"What do you want?" Meng Zhou's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, his eyes became complicated at this moment, he seemed to understand something, and he couldn't convince himself to believe this reason, An Sheng held his hand tightly, as if he could sense the breath that he once admired the most through the insect mark that was about to disappear in his palm, and at this moment, a ghostly laughter suddenly sounded in the darkness, and a black fire ignited under An Sheng's feet, shocking!

The whole space suddenly seemed to shake together, An Sheng looked down at the familiar black fire under his feet, suddenly took a step back in despair, and muttered: "What I want in my heart is to be able to stand side by side with Master." ”

Meng Zhou was dumbfounded, he had guessed various reasons before this, maybe it was really as the legend said, it was the arrogant disciple who moved his heart to seize the position of the valley master, or maybe it was some irreconcilable contradiction between the master and apprentice that caused him to turn against each other, but he never expected that the real reason would be so naïve and ridiculous! Just because of the lack of natural qualifications, he tried in vain to become stronger with the power of monsters, but instead self-defeating and was used by monsters, not only harming himself, but also letting the people he admire the most sink into darkness forever, what is the point of such a side by side?

"It's a pity, Master still hasn't been able to really kill me, if he throws me down from Tianchi and kills my soul directly, I won't be saved by the monster, and I can't help myself to become its puppet, people, since the moment I traded with the monster, I was destined to become a puppet. An Sheng looked at Meng Zhou with a smile, this sentence was more like a warning than a provocation, and this was also the first time he called his master a "monster".

The two looked at each other silently, until Meng Zhou laughed strangely, and replied lightly: "I have lived for three hundred years, and you have been dead for four hundred years, and the essence is that you are immortal monsters, as you said just now, I don't believe in ghosts and gods, but if I believe that you can fulfill my heart's wishes, then what about releasing the scourge?"

An Sheng asked curiously, "What do you wish for?"

Meng Zhou's face suddenly became a little more energetic, but his eyes were a little desolate and lonely, and somehow there was an infinite expectation: "If you want to die, if you can pull a few cushions, it would be great." ”

"You're a wicked person. An Sheng chuckled, Meng Zhou held back his mouth disapprerovingly, and the conversation changed to bring the topic back to the moment, and said lightly, "I never said that I was a good person, otherwise you wouldn't have found me to cooperate, wouldn't you?" Now Mr. has a way to stop Xiao Qianye? He has another person in the Heavenly Realm hidden in his body, if it is not blessed by the power of the illusion, I am afraid no one can stop it......"

"The ...... of the Heavenly Realm" An Sheng thought about it, there was a strange expectation in his eyes, the great name of the Heavenly Realm he was familiar with before his death, and it is said that the source of his power is also an ancient god, so should the other party have enough strength to be comparable to or even surpassed by the fairy under the Queen Mother of the West?

If so...... Can these 400 years of puppet life be redeemed?

Master...... Can Master also break free from this and re-enter reincarnation?

Only then did this thought come to his heart, and he immediately felt a heart-wrenching pain from his cold body, and a familiar female voice came from his ears, with a coldness like ice that has not melted for ten thousand years, An Sheng gasped, but his body, which had been dead for four hundred years, really felt the pain of a thousand cuts, forcing him to throw away all the thoughts in his mind, kowtow heavily to the darkness of nothingness, and said with difficulty: "Master is angry, I will definitely stop Xiao Qianye and prevent him from destroying the sacrifice." ”

Meng Zhou watched his inexplicable movements, and also felt that there was some invisible oppressive force in the darkness, making his cold sweat can't help but flow all over his body.

After fixing his gaze again, An Sheng had come to his senses and returned to his original gloom, he raised his hand to his heart, and said lightly: "The hall master should stay near Panlong Town and keep an eye on the unreliable spirit snake envoy, and I will personally handle the rest of the matter." ”

Meng Zhou caught a glimpse of the movement of his hand, his heart sank, and before he could say anything, the darkness in front of him quickly dissipated, and in an instant, the morning sun shone into his eyes, making his eyes that had been in the dark for a while stinging and unbearable, and he hurriedly blocked the light with his sleeves.

Oops...... He was originally hiding in An Sheng's heart, and with his strength, he could not be noticed by anyone, but at this time, he was suddenly released, so as long as he stepped into Kunlun Mountain, he would immediately be noticed by King Chi!
