Xu Xingzhi: "..."
Thinking that Meng Chongguang was lying behind him just now, Xu Xingzhi only felt that the spine and the back of his head were cold.
The most important thing is that Meng Chongguang didn't know how to answer Meng Chongguang's words.
At first, these people obviously knew Xu Xingzhi, but he didn't know what the real Xu Xingzhi looked like and what image he looked like in front of this group of people.
Second, Xu Xingzhi was not clear about the grievances between Meng Chongguang and Xu Xingzhi.
Logically speaking, Meng Chongguang killed his master and indirectly caused Xu Xingzhi to be kicked out of Xianmen. Xu Xingzhi himself should have hated Meng Chongguang thoroughly.
What rescued Xu Xingzhi from the crisis in the cold field was a tassel spear.
When he was hesitating about how to answer, a Leng Rui Shuoguang suddenly swept past, and the point of the spear pointed straight at Xu Xingzhi's chest.
Xu Xingzhi raised his hands unconsciously and took a step back, and blurted out: "... Oh Huo."
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he regretted it a little.
When he was still Xu Ping, there would always be some unorthodox oral habits. If Xu Xingzhi himself is not a broken mouth character like him, he may have been exposed.
In a few flashes, Xu Xingzhi suddenly heard a crisp sound.
- The ghost spear was broken by the waist in front of Xu Xingzhi.
The tip of the spear pointed to the sky, the handle of the spear was cracked, and white stubble was exposed at the break.
Meng Chongguang's left hand was pinching at the crack of the gun body, and his eyes were fixed on the young man who was holding the gun to stab him for a moment, and his tone could not hear any special emotions: "... Zhou Beinan, step back."
The young man named Zhou Beinan held a broken gun in his hand and did not retreat.
The threat was useless, Meng Chongguang showed no mercy, he folded the tip of the broken spear, and threw it towards Zhou Beinan with his backhand.
Zhou Beinan dodged immediately, but he was literally scratched on the side of his neck, and blood suddenly gushed out.
... The ghost slaves manipulated by ghost cultivators can't hurt him at all with ordinary fairy weapons. Only the treasures held by ghost soldiers can hurt the ghost's body.
The tip of the spear sank into the big rock behind him, shattering the rock like tofu.
Meng Chongguang said in a deep voice, "...don't take this thing at senior brother."
Zhou Beinan showed no fear, turned his palm, turned the broken ghost gun handle over, lifted Xu Xingzhi's chin, and asked Meng Zhongguang, "This is really Xu Xingzhi? Do you believe it?"
He turned to the crowd again: "...Do you all believe?"
Seeing that no one responded, and the scene was a little cold, Xu Xingzhi raised his hand brazenly and said, "I believe it."
Zhou Beinan sneered: "You? You're not the awakened corpse of Jiuzhideng, are you?"
In the present world, Xu Xingzhi has read countless magazines, and he has seen records about "awakening the corpse" in a collection of phantoms.
"Awakening Corpse" is a monster transformed from a dead corpse. Its appearance, words and deeds are no different from ordinary people. It can even think, live and eat like a living person. Black and white are reversed, light and dark are indistinguishable, hot and cold are reversed, and they will act according to the command and control of their masters.
Zhou Beinan didn't say much nonsense, he withdrew the gun handle, and a group of ghost fire gathered in his left hand, hitting Xu Xingzhi in the face.
The light of the fire suddenly stopped only three inches away from Xu Xingzhi's eyes.
The ghost fire was awe-inspiring, not scorching, but the chill that went deep into the bones still caused a layer of frost on Xu Xingzhi's face.
In order to maintain the image of the original owner, Xu Xingzhi, which was almost destroyed by himself, Xu Xingzhi kept his eyes open and watched as a layer of frost and snow formed on his eyelashes.
With the burning of the ghost fire, Zhou Beinan's originally determined expression was shaken.
It stands to reason that the real awakening corpse will misjudge such a cold flame as a hot fire, so it is instinctive to fear and avoid it.
He stared at Xu Xingzhi in disbelief: "How is it possible? ... You didn't wake up the corpse?"
Xu Xingzhi was speechless.
With his hands behind his back, he stared at Zhou Beinan unpredictably but with a guilty conscience.
Zhou Beinan waved his hand, and the ghost fire turned into thousands of blue fireflies and dissipated.
But he still had doubts on his face, and said to Meng Chongguang: "...you take out his treasure, and I will fight with him, and then I will know whether he is real or fake."
Xu Xingzhi had to remind him: "I am a mortal now."
Zhou Beinan naturally didn't believe it: "You mean you were pulled out of your bones?"
Xu Xingzhi neither affirmed nor denied it.
Zhou Beinan sneered: "Impossible, as far as I know, none of the monks who have their roots removed can live."
Xu Xingzhi said, "That's as far as you know."
Zhou Beinan stopped talking nonsense with him and gestured to grab his arm.
Before Zhou Beinan met him, Meng Chongguang grabbed Xu Xingzhi's right wrist and grabbed it.
The strength was so great that Xu Xingzhi was almost staggered by him.
He blocked Xu Xingzhi behind him, and his voice was terrifyingly cold: "If he is an awakened corpse and dares to use his brother's face, I would have strangled him long ago when I met him."
Xu Xingzhi: "..."
He stroked the back of his windy neck and thought, who taught this child, how impolite.
He kindly carried him home, but he actually wanted to strangle himself.
But thinking about the purpose of his trip, Xu Xingzhi shut up.
... Anyway, he is not a good bird, why should the crow laugh at the black pig.
Meng Zhongguang paused and continued: "Senior brother, he has indeed lost his mana. I tested it on the way here. The spiritual veins in his body have been stagnant for a long time, and there is no spiritual flow."
After that, he turned his face, and his voice instantly became soft: "...Senior brother, but this?"
If you don't have to play the big brother who has been tricked by him, if you don't know that the person in front of you is a murderous demon, and if you don't come to kill him, Xu Xingzhi will think that this child looks quite cute.
Xu Xingzhi resisted the urge to touch his head and turned his face away.
Meng Chongguang also felt his resistance, his eyes dimmed, and he was as lost as a puppy who didn't get a touch from his master.
Zhou Beinan seemed to believe it a bit, but he still had doubts: "Are you sure he wasn't pretending to be someone else?"
The bone girl can't stand it anymore: "Big Brother Zhou..."
Zhou Beinan thought for a moment and raised his brows, as if he had thought of an excellent verification method.
Xu Xingzhi noticed the change in his expression, so he cheered up and concentrated, ready to deal with his next problem.
Zhou Beinan said: "...You have given me dozens of nicknames since you were young. As long as you can name three, I will believe that you are Xu Xingzhi."
Xu Xingzhi: "..."
... from nicknames, and even more than a dozen on horseback.
Xu Xingzhi felt that the original owner did not seem to be a serious senior brother.
However, after the verification of Xu Xingzhi's memory fragments, the original owner really did such a boring thing.
There are four immortal mountain blessed places in Zhengdao. Xu Xingzhi and Meng Chongguang are both disciples of Fengling Mountain, Zhou Beinan is the son of Yingtianchuan Island Lord, and the other two immortal mountain blessed places are Danyang Peak and Qingliang Valley.
The original owner's memory is extremely fragmented. Xu Xingzhi can only see from some messy clips that the original owner will bicker with each other as long as he meets Zhou Beinan, beat each other, and the relationship is very bad, so Xu Xingzhi will give him more than ten A nickname to show Zhou Beinan's special status in his mind.
Xu Xingzhi paused for a while, and successfully dug out a nickname from the memory fragment: "Beibei."
Zhou Beinan: "… "
Xu Xingzhi: "Pumpkin."
Zhou Beinan: "… "
Xu Xingzhi: "Ah, and Amen."
Zhou Beinan couldn't bear it any longer: "...Shut up!"
The two-knife girl burst out with joy.
Zhou Beinan couldn't hold back his face, and turned back and scolded: "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?"
The girl was not afraid at all: "Uncle, I can understand the first two, but what does 'Amen' mean?"
Xu Xingzhi leaned his head out from Meng Chongguang's body, and explained kindly, "Because he was a fat man when he was a child. The word 'Zhou Beinan' is 'men Tukou Beinan'. I just called him 'Amen'."
Zhou Bei's face was red and his ears were red, and he threw the half of the gun handle in his hand to the ground: "...Xu Xingzhi, do you want to be beaten?"
Xu Xingzhi hid behind Meng Chongguang shamelessly and pretended to be dead.
While speaking, a dark figure came running from a distance.
… is the ghost-faced youth who stood on the cliff just now.
Before Xu Xingzhi could react, the young man slammed into his arms, and there was a cry in his voice: "Senior Brother Xu!"
The young man was indeed very short, and he only reached Xu Xingzhi's chin. The lower half of his face, which was not covered by the terrifying iron face, was delicate and fair. At first glance, he thought he was a child.
Xu Xingzhi was taken aback by him, and on the principle of pretending to be familiar if he couldn't name him, he raised his hand and touched his hair: "... Well, it's me."
The young man raised his head, the pupils behind the mask were pale blue, round and like a young fox: "Senior Brother Xu, I haven't seen you for thirteen years, where have you been?"
Xu Xingzhi smiled bitterly.
… Hold on, let me make it up.
But before he could make it up, the young man was pulled out of his arms by Zhou Beinan.
I don't know if it was Xu Xingzhi's illusion, but Zhou Beinan's face seemed even more ugly than before. He pointed to the ghost who was broken by Meng Chongguang on the ground just now, and said indifferently to the young man, "...Fix it."
The ghost-faced youth struggled: "Senior brother is still here, I have to ask my brother first..."
After Zhou Beinan glanced at Meng Chongguang with the end of his eyes, he forced the young man to leave: "It's not your turn to talk to him now."
The iron-faced youth seemed to understand something, and obediently shut up.
Meng Chongguang didn't greet everyone, grabbed Xu Xingzhi's right wrist, and walked straight into the tower.
Xu Xingzhi tried to get rid of him, but he was helpless, so he could only drag him in like a dog.
In a hurry, Xu Xingzhi looked back and found that the bone girl who had treated Meng Zhongguang's burn just now was staring at him.
When Xu Xingzhi looked back at her, she hurriedly lowered her head and turned away.
The blue-green hairband tied on her black hair was straight to her waist, and it flew like a wave as she walked away.
After the two entered the tower, the girl with two knives came to the ghost-faced youth and asked curiously, "Brother Lu, is that the brother Xu you often say?"
The ghost-faced youth fiddled with the broken ghost spear, overjoyed: "Yes."
The girl with two knives grabbed her short hair that was cut in a mess: "Why do I think he is so frivolous?"
The ghost-faced youth said: "Although Brother Xu is a bit sloppy, he is the best person in the world."
Hearing this, Zhou Beinan rolled his eyes: "Ha."
The ghost-faced youth turned to Zhou Beinan and complained, "What are you laughing at? You are still laughing! Do you know how much essence it will cost me to repair the ghost soldiers? Can you cherish it and use it?"
Zhou Beinan: "... OK, OK."
Afterwards, Zhou Beinan turned to the girl with two swords and asked, "Awang, where are Qu Chi and Tao Xian?"
Zhou Wang replied: "I heard that some spiritual stones were found in the mountains in the south. Godfather and godmother went to find the spiritual stones. They will be back around midnight."
Zhou Beinan pondered for a moment, pulled Zhou Wang over, and said earnestly, "Would you like to do your uncle a favor?"
Zhou Wang whispered to her, and Zhou Beinan explained to her like this.
The ghost-faced youth on the side suddenly raised his head: "Zhou Beinan, do you still doubt Senior Brother Xu?"
Zhou Beinan: "...I'm talking to Awang, why are you eavesdropping?"
The ghost-faced youth said angrily, "You are my ghost slave, your eyes are my eyes, and your ears are my ears. Do you think it's me who wants to hear it?"
Zhou Beinan was helpless, and simply said frankly and honestly: "After 13 years of absence, he suddenly appeared in Xu Xingzhi. I don't believe that he has no purpose. Don't forget, Jiuzhideng has always wanted to kill us!"
With that said, he looked at the bronze iron gate of the tower, and said coldly: "... especially Meng Chongguang, who lived in the wild for 13 years without dying. I'm afraid that person's heart has long been in trouble!"
Inside the tower.
It is completely different from the desolation and desolation outside the tower. The interior of the tower is elegant and quiet. There is even a stream of running water flowing through the tower, with flowing stones and painted walls.
Xu Xingzhi seemed to have walked into a paradise, and he was the reckless fisherman.
Meng Chongguang waved his hand gently, and a bamboo leaf facing the door opened in response.
He introduced Xu Xingzhi into it, and the tables, chairs, beds and beds were all available, and even pearls and garlands were decorated.
Meng Zhongguang said softly: "Senior brother, this is your room, and I have prepared it for you. I will place all the items as they are, but some items cannot be found in this wilderness, so don't ask for them. Angry, I will do the same for senior brother in the future."
Xu Xingzhi pretended to be indifferent: "Well."
Meng Chongguang pulled Xu Xingzhi to sit beside the bed, with a strange light in his eyes: "Senior brother touched Lu Yujiu just now, and now he is also touching my hair, okay?"
Very good, the ghost-faced young man's name is Lu Yujiu, so when we meet next time, there is no need to worry about not being able to name him.
Xu Xingzhi thought so, he didn't look directly at Meng Chongguang, didn't answer his question, he just looked around.
At this glance, Xu Xingzhi found that there was a beautiful bamboo fractured fan right at the head of the bed, which looked quite mysterious.
Xu Xingzhi took it with his left hand and slowly unfolded the fan.
On the fan are written eight cursive characters: "In today's world, who else will I be?"
Signed, "No. 1 in the sky, Xu Xingzhi in Fengling".
Xu Xingzhi: "..."
Meng Chongguang, who was ignored just now, came over again obediently: "Senior brother, I have always kept your treasure, do you like it?"
Xu Xingzhi: "..."
He felt that the original owner's taste was a mystery.
Xu Xingzhi wanted to put the fan back in its original place, but just as his hand touched the bed, a vine sprang out from the foot of the bed like thunder and lightning, and tightly wrapped around Xu Xingzhi's left wrist.
Xu Xingzhi was shocked: "What is this?"
Meng Chongguang said happily: "Senior brother, you are finally willing to talk to me."
Xu Xingzhi: "...Okay, I'll talk to you, you let go of this thing."
The vines with thick arms did not mean to let go of him at all.
Meng Chongguang asked hopefully: "When my brother came back with me, didn't he say that the reason why he came to Wilderness was to find me? I'm here, brother don't go anywhere, okay?"
Xu Xingzhi: "..."
Seeing that Xu Xingzhi was still silent, Meng Chongguang couldn't hide his disappointment, got up and said, "If senior brother really doesn't want to talk to me, I'll just wait a little longer."
Xu Xingzhi saw that he was really going to leave, and he couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Let go of me!"
Meng Chongguang walked to the door and was taken aback by Xu Xingzhi's broken drink. When he turned around, there were tears in his eyes: "Brother, please bear with me for a while, everything I am doing now is for the sake of my brother. Honghuang is too dangerous. , as long as you stay with Chongguang, senior brother will be safe and sound. Please, senior brother, agree to Chongguang, stay."
Xu Xingzhi: "..."
If it weren't for the fact that he was tied up and unable to move, just by looking at Meng Chongguang's aggrieved expression, ten out of ten people would think that the person who was tightly entangled by the vines was actually Meng Chongguang.
Xu Xingzhi still held a lingering hope: "Let me go, I'm not going anywhere."
Meng Chongguang thought for a while and asked, "Do you not like vines, senior brother?"
Xu Xingzhi nodded: "Well."
… The vines are prone to insects, and Xu Xingzhi himself was afraid of insects to death.
Meng Chongguang said unwillingly, "...Well then."
Soon, Meng Chongguang closed the door again and left.
Xu Xingzhisheng leaned reluctantly on the head of the bed, and the vines that were originally wrapped around his left hand turned into a sturdy golden shackle, which was luxurious and brilliant.
He touched the dagger on his waist with his wooden hand, very sad.
... Probably this is the so-called death before the apprenticeship.
