Chapter 145: Three Questions
The old man laughed loudly, his hair trembling incessantly, and even the ancient trees behind him shook a few times, and a few leaves fell. I saw that the old man seemed to have heard something funny, and his crazy appearance made several people look sideways.
"Senpai?"
Liu Zifeng was also shocked by the old man's reaction, and then looked at the other party who looked like crazy, a little unclear, and called softly. After the thin old man laughed, his eyes looked at Liu Zifeng, his expression suddenly became positive, and even with a bit of scrutiny, he asked in a low voice: "What, don't you believe it?"
A gust of wind blew quietly, looking at the eyes of the old man opposite who suddenly became deep, Liu Zifeng suddenly felt a chill hit.
"It's no wonder that when I was your age, I never thought about these things, I always felt that life and death were too far away from me, and all I could do was to cultivate hard and find my own path. Magical powers, magic weapons, and secret relics until one day, an important person around me died, and it was only then that I realized that the friend who had been with me was so fragile and short-lived, how could it be described that he had suddenly disappeared?"
Speaking of the past, a sense of vicissitudes permeated the old man's body, and the heavy sorrow left by the years was like a cloud that could not be removed, which made people sigh.
"From that time on, I began to think that the spiritual powers we practiced have an indelible relationship with the soul, so can the soul still exist in the world after death? Later, as the Taoist penance increased, I saw more and more unbelievable things, and gradually understood some things, if it was not for the soul to fly away, the final destination of the soul would be the Nine Secluded Underworld, subject to the meaning of the underworld, and it would be another world for us. ”
After speaking, the old man glanced at Liu Zifeng and said lightly: "You should know these things better than me, why do you have to ask me?"
The old man's words implied, and his shrewd eyes naturally saw through Liu Zifeng's identity at a glance, so he asked rhetorically, and his tone was a little puzzled. Faced with such an eccentric person who can take people's lives silently, Liu Zifeng sighed in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Senior...... I, I'm just a remnant of the extermination, and I don't know anything about these things, so I ask my seniors to forgive me. ”
Liu Zifeng's eyes were slightly raised, and he replied respectfully with his fists. However, the old man was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "The Liu Clan's ghost clan has been wiped out? Who told you?"
After that, two essence-like rays of light suddenly appeared from the old man's mind, glanced at Liu Zifeng, and asked strangely: "Boy, although you have passed away, but the ghost clan is born with two souls, how easy is it to exterminate the clan?" Although the old man does not dare to claim to be the most well-informed in the world, he has never heard of such absurd words, what do you mean by this?"
This time it was Liu Zifeng's turn to be surprised, and he glared and asked, "What did you say, senior?"
Beside him, Song Xitong's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he stopped talking. I saw the old man looking at Liu Zifeng and slowly explained: "Naturally, the ghost clan of the Liu clan is the same as the human race, if it is not for the two souls of the natural race, how can it be called the ghost clan?
Hearing this, Liu Zifeng's heart moved, and he seemed to be burning a little hope, and then he was shrouded in a thick cloud of doubt. After thinking for a moment, Liu Zifeng looked serious, looked at the old man with a bit of hope in his eyes, and asked softly: "Senior, the third thing the junior wants to ask is, can the senior know where the land of the Liu Clan's ghost clan is?"
The thin old man was not surprised at all when he heard this, and shook his head calmly: "You really have this question, but the old man is difficult to know, and even if he knows, he will not tell you." From your repeated questions, the old man can probably guess that this is the situation of the ghost clan. I have never had any grievances or enmity with the ghost clan, so why do I have to attract this troubled water? At present, the undercurrent of the six clans in the Northern Desert is surging, and the old man will flow into the situation of your ghost clan again, I am afraid that a few lives will not be enough to live. ”
"Uh......"
The four of them were dumbfounded, the old man instantly changed into the lazy appearance he had before, and when he saw him, he waved his hand and said, "The old man has nothing to say about this problem, let's change it!"
Liu Zifeng was stunned when he heard this, and his expression was slightly lost, but he still thanked him, turned his head and said, "Do you guys have anything to ask?"
The three of them glanced at each other, and shook their heads, only Song Xitong stepped forward and said coldly: "I want to know the current situation of the six clans." ”
The old man's eyes flashed, and he immediately swept over Liu Zifeng, Fortune Divination, and Absolute Shadow, and smiled: "The six tribes of the Northern Desert have fallen apart now, except for the Mu Clan, the Earth Clan, and the Water Clan. It is rumored that the 'Han Silkworm Heavenly Maiden' who once escaped has returned to the Northern Desert, and the actions of the Han Tian Clan must be inseparable from this. ”
Song Xitong's body trembled slightly, her face could not be seen clearly under the veil, she hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "I already understand, thank you senior." ”
The old man didn't care, stretched out his hand and threw the black box that Liu Zifeng picked up before, and said lightly: "You little ghosts, although they are a little different from ordinary people, but the way is still far behind. Especially the juniors of the ghost clan, once the ghost clan of the Liu clan had a lot of trouble with the six clans because of the 'Han Silkworm Heavenly Maiden', and going like this is just giving away their lives in vain, so let's go back and forth from where!"
The old man's attitude became impatient in an instant, and regardless of Liu Zifeng's stunned expressions, he said with a wave of his sleeves. However, before Liu Zifeng could say anything, Song Xitong did not move, and a clear and firm voice came out of her mouth: "What if we have to wade into this troubled water?"
Liu Zifeng's complexion changed, and he didn't know why, he was suddenly anxious in his heart, and pulled Song Xitong to his side, hugged his fists and said: "Don't blame the seniors, the younger companions are straightforward and fast-talking, but there is no disrespect, please bear with me if I am abrupt!"
The old man smiled, the sharp essence in his eyes gradually faded, and he looked the same as the inconspicuous appearance before, and said lightly: "What you do is your own business, what does it have to do with my old man?" People, they have always only believed what they see, but when they encounter it, they will not believe what they hear, and at that time, even if they regret it in a thousand ways, they will have to cry out and mourn, yes or no?"
These words were inexplicable, and Liu Zifeng heard from the side that the old man seemed to have something unspeakable, but he didn't want to ask again. Looking at the black box in his hand, he said in a deep voice: "What the predecessors said is full of great truths, and we can't understand the meaning of it." The three questions of the juniors have passed, I don't know what the seniors need?"
"Oh, you kid has a good memory, you didn't think about fooling the old man, not bad. I used to see that your kid was pleasing to the eye, and I was going to help you for free, but now that the old man has changed his mind, it is also an extraordinarily simple thing for you, are you willing?"
The old man looked surprised, and looked at Liu Zifeng deeply, as if he wanted to see him through.
"It's okay for the seniors to say, and the juniors should obey it. ”
Liu Zifeng always felt that this old man was not simple, and he was a little uncomfortable when he was seen by those deep eyes, and hurriedly said.
The old man took out a vial with his backhand, and he didn't know where to take it out, threw it to Liu Zifeng, and said seriously: "In this case, I need three drops of essence blood on your body!"
Taking the vial, Liu Zifeng did not hesitate, bit the tip of his tongue and squeezed three drops of essence blood into it, and then handed it to the old man. I saw that the old man looked stunned, and then became angry again, and said with his teeth and claws: "Bastard boy, how did the adults of your family teach you to give the essence and blood to others so easily?"
Liu Zifeng was also taken aback, stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said: "I am all by myself, no one has taught me, and the master who taught me the heart method has also passed away for some reason, and I have never known these things." However, the seniors are unborn masters, and they don't look like those evil demons crookedly, and the younger generations naturally believe it. ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then a burst of laughter came out, and even tears welled up in his eyes, and he said with a slight mockery: "What? It's not like the evil devil's crooked way?hahaha, the old man is the real evil devil's crooked way, you kid is really interesting, more people died in the hands of the old man than you have ever seen, you dare to say that?"
Liu Zifeng smiled and said embarrassedly: "Most of those people have a reason for their deaths, so the younger generation won't comment too much." ”
"Is there a reason for death?"
The old man glanced at Liu Zifeng quite unexpectedly, then sat down cross-legged, pointed to the black box in Liu Zifeng's hand, and said, "Take it!"
Liu Zifeng paused for a moment, but still handed over the black locket, and asked suspiciously: "Senior, what's wrong?"
I saw the old man put the box in front of him, his eyes closed, and the next moment a wave of heat came out, pushing the four of them back a few steps. At this time, the old man's hair was floating up, and there seemed to be a colorless and unknown flame rising from his body. At this moment, his fingers curled slightly, pinching a strange trick, and pointed at the black locket several times.
In an instant, the sound of a terrible ghost crying came from the black box, and wisps of cyan tobacco overflowed from the surface of the black box, forming hideous and ugly grimaces, roaring endlessly.
However, before these tobacco grimaces could be fully formed, they encountered the colorless flames around the old man's body, and suddenly they were thrown into a hot oil pot, making a soft sound.
It didn't take long for the grimace that had escaped to disappear, the black box no longer moved, and the heat wave emitted by the old man was also retracted into his body and returned to normal. Liu Zifeng came closer to take a look, only to see that the original black box was as if the stain had been wiped off, revealing a cyan appearance, and two black chains crossed in the center.
