Chapter 38, what about living with the sky
"How's the outside world?" asked Shangguan Yun the old lady. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Shangguan Yun immediately told Mrs. Rong briefly everything outside the Lock Demon Tower, but in fact, Mrs. Rong didn't listen carefully.
Seeing that Mrs. Rong yawned, Shangguan Yun retreated with interest, he wanted to ask about the situation in the tower, but Mrs. Rong obviously didn't mean to introduce herself.
"Uh, you're leaving, well, well, that's not where you're going. β
"Thank you for speaking to me, it reminds me of him again, I can't help you with anything, I'll give you this. Old Lady Rong brought out a fruit bowl from the back room, and there were a few peaches in it.
"It's all the little demons who honor me, and they still have some aura. In this world, nothing good grows. β
"Old lady Xie, the junior has taken his leave. β
"Wait, if you really get the Linghu, don't forget to come back and talk to me. β
"Hmm. β
Out of Xiushui Village, after walking ten miles, a small hill appeared in front of Shangguan Yun's eyes, this mountain is not high, and it is only a hundred and ten zhang when it is touched, but it is filled with thick fog, and it is impossible to see the situation on the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Shangguan Yun suddenly saw a "person", saying that he was wearing a tiger skin.
"Ghost?" Shangguan Yun was stunned for a moment.
The "person" was also stunned when he saw Shangguan Yun, and then spoke.
"This son, I'm sorry, you admit your mistake, please don't call me a ghost. β
"Aren't you a ghost, can you still deceive people like this?" Shangguan Yun almost didn't get out happy, but he didn't expect this ghost to be quite polite when he spoke.
"I didn't lie, I was indeed a ghost before, but now that tiger was killed by the disciples of Shushan, and I was also caught here, of course, I am no longer a ghost, just a little ghost. β
"That's just as well. Shangguan Yunxin said, what the ghost said is not wrong.
"It looks like you're not a disciple of Shushan. β
"How so?"
"Because you're not a sword cultivator. β
"Well, I'm really not a disciple of Shushan!"
"But you know how to spell, and although it doesn't seem to be very clever, it's enough. β
"What are you doing?" Shangguan Yun looked surprised.
"Help me kill a few imps, I can recognize you as my master. The ghost said with a grin.
"Why should I say yes?"
"Because you need me, or you'll have a hard time getting that gourd. β
"You're just an ordinary little ghost, can you help me?" Shangguan Yun looked at the ghost in front of him with some disbelief. β
"Ghosts and ghosts are different, most ghosts are swallowed by the tiger and lost their minds, so they will recognize the tiger as the master. I'm different, I'm a ghost of my own volition, and although I don't know any spells, my brain is very good, and in fact, the tiger is fascinated by me. β
"Volunteering to be a ghost, why?"
"In order to take revenge! I was an orphan when I was born, and I was always bullied in the clan, and later in order to rob my parents of the family property left to me, I was beaten half to death by them and thrown into the mountains to feed the tigers. At that time, I was resentful in my heart, so I volunteered to be the ghost of the tiger, and then by the hand of the tiger, I killed all the people. After that, I kept coaxing that tiger to dominate the mountain, so uncomfortableγγγγγγ β
"How do you know I'm here to get a gourd?" Shangguan Yun decisively interrupted the ghost's confession.
"Every demon here knows this, except for the wood-headed, for no one can come in here, and whoever can come in must come to take the gourd." β
"Also, I've been waiting for you here for a long time. The ghost looked at Shangguan Yun with a grin.
"Wait, you're waiting for me here?
"Because I have no support here, and I don't have any spells, so I was bullied by those big and small demons and monsters all day long, and if I want revenge, I can only find another backer, so I will hide here and wait for you. β
"You know I'm going to pass through here?"
"You can only pass through here, those old guys outside won't want you to die, and will definitely let you take the safest path. β
"Then how are you going to help me?" Shangguan Yun admired this guy a little.
"In order to help you, I have spent a long time understanding every demon and monster here, so that you can know yourself and your opponent, and remember the terrain here clearly, is this enough?"
"You are really smart, but have you ever thought that my cultivation is very poor, and I may not be your backer. β
The ghost sighed, "To be honest, although I thought that the strength of the person who came to get the gourd may not be high, I really didn't expect that your strength is so poor, and you haven't built a foundation yet." β
"However, strength is not the most important thing, there are 30,000 demons here, and a few are at the level of demon kings, even if you are strong, you can't fight hard! β
"Why don't you choose a demon king as the master, but choose me?"
"There are two reasons, one is that I am useless to those demon kings here, and the other is that if you can successfully get the spirit gourd, then the demon king will be nothing. β
"So what do you get? Just let me help you kill a few imps? That's not what you're trying to do. β
"Do you have to know?" asked the ghost, smiling, serious.
"I have to know that I don't like to be fooled. Shangguan Yun said equally seriously.
"Because I'm a little tired of living, I want to be reincarnated as soon as possible, and only by letting the destined person get the spirit gourd, and this world is opened, can I be reincarnated. β
This reason of the ghost made Shangguan Yun a little speechless.
"Alas!" the ghost sighed deeply, and then said: "You won't understand now, generally speaking, once demons and ghosts have feelings, they are far more dedicated than people! For example, the old lady Rong you saw earlier, for her, nothing is as important as her Liu Lang, as long as you can let her be with Liu Lang, whatever conditions you put forward, she will agree, even if it is to let her destroy the results of her thousands of years of hard cultivation, she will not hesitate." β
"What about you, you're an orphan, do you have feelings for anyone?"
"Before I became an orphan, my parents were very kind to me, and then I became an orphan, and I missed the happy days with my parents, after my parents died, I fell from heaven to hell, and I was bullied all day long, only after becoming a ghost, I found some happiness again, although the tiger was a little stupid, but it was really good to me. I've been in the tower for so long that I've forgotten everything, but I've missed my parents more and more, so I just hope to be reincarnated sooner and enjoy my parents' care again. β
"Could it be that all the demons and monsters in this tower think so?" Shangguan Yun asked with some suspicion.
"I don't know what other people think, I think so, but there will definitely be some demons and monsters who will do everything they can to prevent you from obtaining the Linghu. β
"Why? Because of hatred of the Terrans?"
"No, you have to know, in fact, in this mutilated world, due to chaos, there is no concept of time, as long as they are not devoured by other demons, these demons have actually lived with this heaven and earth, do you know what this means?"
Isn't it true that human beings who have worked hard to cultivate and want to become immortals just to live with heaven and earth? Of course, Shangguan Yun knows what this means.
"That is, they don't want to be changed here. β
"That's the case, before the collapse of the Lock Demon Tower, in addition to the power of demon suppression, you can also borrow the power of heaven and earth to gradually transform the demon qi in the tower into pure qi, plus the disciples of Shushan boast of having the virtue of a good life, otherwise a little ghost like me would not have been imprisoned in the tower at all, but would have been killed directly. β
"It's just that the transformation power of the Lock Demon Tower comes very slowly, and it is far less fast than the speed of the Shushan disciples to catch the demons, so there is the final ending of the collapse of the Lock Demon Tower. After the collapse of the Lock Demon Tower, Linghu opened a realm, and even the remnants of the Lock Demon Tower were also closed, and there was no longer the power of transformation, so there was this immortal and immortal chaotic realm. β
"Although it is possible to live without death or life in this realm, but if Mrs. Rong and I are so connected, but there is no taste in life, such days are pure torture, even if you live forever, what is there to love. Of course, there are some demons, although they don't like this look, but it's better to die than to live, naturally they don't want you to get the spirit gourd, and when you open this world, they will definitely find ways to stop you. β
"I see!I understand it completely!" Shangguan Yun then completely understood why this ghost was so well-intentioned to help him obtain the spirit gourd.
"Alright, then I'll tell you about the situation in the tower. β
"Thank you!" Shangguan Yun's thanks this time came from the bottom of his heart.
"Although there are 30,000 demons in this tower, they are scattered everywhere, and there are only two places that are relatively gathered, one is more than 3,000 beast demons led by the sky fox, occupying the second layer of Xiaohu Qishan, which is a must-pass place, and it is also a difficult level to pass; β
"The cultivation of the sky fox is extremely high, before being imprisoned in the lock demon tower, it was already the cultivation of the Yuan Infant, and it has been suppressed for tens of thousands of years, although the skill has faded, I am afraid that it is also above the knot, and this woman has a deep grudge against the human race, which is really difficult to deal with. β
"As for the ghost king Jueli, this person was originally a general before his death, and his military achievements were outstanding, but he was framed because of his high merits, and he ended up being beheaded. After his death, he was angry, so he summoned the old department, called himself the ghost king, and had 8,000 soldiers and ghosts under his command, all of whom were brave and good at fighting the dead soldiers, and they were almost invincible in this lock demon tower. However, this person is also bright and upright in his life, and when the time comes, he will deal with it carefully, and there may be a turnaround. β
"Well, I see, so apart from these two, there is no danger?"
"No, the so-called open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, and there are thousands of demons in this tower, although these demons have their own side, but they also have to be guarded against. Because the devil is a thing, most of them become crazy because of stupidity, and the so-called crazy thought into the devil's way, there is no reason to talk about it, and for those demons who fall into the devil because of hatred, they will never let go of the people they see, and when they meet, there is only one way to fight to the death. β
"I understand!" Shangguan Yun felt that this ghost was his noble person at this moment, and if it weren't for his explanation, he didn't know how many times more difficult it would be for him to make this trip.
"When are we leaving?" Shangguan Yun asked.
"Don't worry, I've also found a helper for you in advance, let's go find him first. β
