Burial with Qing Yao

In fact, what Bai Wenxing mainly wanted to express was, how could Sang Zhuo be so fragmented and still commit crimes everywhere.

"How about I come and kill him once?" Bai Wenxing just asked casually, and Sang Zhuo immediately shrank into a ball, and got back into the carriage with a face full of fear.

Seeing Sang Zhuo grow bigger and bigger, his eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as that gloomy boy in Zeng Jin, which inevitably reminds Yinjuan of some past events.

Sang Zhuo was born in the place where the turbid qi gathered between the heaven and the earth. His body itself was condensed from countless turbid qi. As long as there is still a trace of turbid qi in this world, Sang Zhuo will not die.

He healed himself by absorbing these turbid qi. When Jiang Ran picked him up, Sang Zhuo had already grown into a teenager by relying on these turbid qi.

In those years, Sang Zhuo was always by Jiang Ran's side.He doesn't talk much, and he seldom sees a smile on his face, as if there is nothing in this world that can make him happy. Every time Jiang Ran sees the unhappy Sang Zhuo, he even suspects that he was coerced by someone. stayed with him.

Although Sang Zhuo was gloomy and reticent, he was a genius in terms of cultivation. In just a hundred years, he was enough to rival them.

No one knows why Sang Zhuo betrayed.

nobody.

This matter is still a mystery until now.Back then when Yinjuan beheaded him, he didn't hesitate when he dropped the sword, let alone investigate the reason.

Now Sang Zhuo has returned to their side in another form, although he is still in an unawakened state, maybe... this is an opportunity.

Yinjuan always feels that if he seizes this opportunity, he will be able to understand the inside story of Sang Zhuo's betrayal back then, so compared to Bai Wenxing, he is quite tolerant of Sang Zhuo today.

……

……

Jiang Ran buried a territory stone outside Ningchuan Town before leading them into the town.

As He Shuting said, this town is not peaceful, the entire street is almost full of funeral shops, and there are very few inns and restaurants.

Dozens of notices are densely pasted on the city wall. At a glance, they are all looking for missing persons.

The portraits of the missing people are layered on top of each other, the old notices still cannot find the person, and the new notices are covered one by one. Close the door tightly, dare not go out and walk around.

The town is very small, you can walk to the end within half a day if you walk through a few streets and alleys.

As soon as Jiang Ran and the others entered the town, they were stopped by the guards at the door and asked to check their hands.

"In Ningchuan Town today, people with three eyes are regarded as aliens, and many places do not welcome them!" the guard said.

"Let's check the land more strictly, so that the normal people in the city can feel at ease."

Not long after entering the town, Jiang Ran really felt the hardships of the life of the three-eyed man here.

"Let's go! Our inn can't entertain you! What if you infect us with this disease? There are so many people in the inn, I have to be responsible for them!"

The innkeeper angrily drove out a guest who had eyes on the back of his hand.

Jiang Ran also helped the man up out of kindness, "I can help you expel the eyes on the back of your hand, just for a while..."

Who would have thought that the man would rudely push Jiang Ran away after hearing the words, "Do you also think that three eyes are a disease?"

"Let me tell you! Three eyes are a gift from God! I have no discomfort, and I don't need treatment! Since I have this third eye, my vision is better than before. Three eyes are a blessing, you guys Some people can't even ask for it!"

The speaker spoke fiercely, probably because he had been oppressed for a long time, and now he vented it on the street.

After hearing the news, several guards came and took him away.

"Why do you arrest me, why!"

The innkeeper watched the man being taken away, spat, cursed bad luck, turned around and entertained Jiang Ran with a smiling face.

Jiang Ran roughly asked him, and according to the innkeeper, there are two factions in Ningchuan Town today.

Normal people and trinocular people.

People with three eyes are in the minority, and they will be discriminated against and abused wherever they go, but most of them are unwilling to give in and often gather together to fight.

"This thing is contagious, who would have that thing on the back of a normal person!" The innkeeper continued to tell Jiang Ran about the Sanmuren for a while.

"No one knows how this disease came about. Anyway, suddenly one day, a few people with three eyes appeared in the town. At first they were quite scared. Impulsively, he took a knife and gouged out his eyes on the spot, but those eyeballs were like living things, they couldn’t be removed, and after gouging them out, they would come back the next day..."

"Later, more people grew up, and I felt that there was nothing wrong with having an extra eye. Hiss...why is it so itchy?" The innkeeper scratched the back of his hand and cursed in his heart. Give it to him, "You just said that you can cure this disease? Please help me find out..."

Chu Yi was not interested in the matter of the three eyes in the town, he worked as a ghost messenger, turning day and night upside down, during the day when he was sleeping, he took He Shuting upstairs to rest early.

It fell to Jiang Ran to inquire about Tan You.

There are many things, and everything is urgent, so Jiang Ran decided to divide the troops into two groups.

He arranged for Bai Wenxing to set up a small stall outside the inn, and together with Sang Zhuo, he helped people get rid of the third eye for free.

And he and Yinjuan were investigating Tan You in the town, inquiring about news, and investigating the source of the two spells.

The Tan family moved out, leaving only an empty house.Jiang Ran and Yinjuan went in and went around for a while, but failed to get any clues, so they could only put the matter aside for the time being and investigate the talisman.

"Could the missing persons in Ningchuan be related to monsters?"

Jiang Ran put forward a hypothesis, "As soon as I entered the town, I felt that the turbidity here is extremely strong."

He went around with Yinjuan, came under the city wall again, and thought for a while facing the portraits of missing people all over the wall.

Yinjuan also felt that the turbidity of this place was unusually strong, which was very suitable for the growth of Sang Zhuo and his flesh and blood. He was thinking whether it was right to bring Sang Zhuo to this place.

Yinjuan tore off a few portraits and pointed to the words on them, "Most of these people disappeared at night, these few disappeared in the town, and these few disappeared outside the city."

Jiang Ran took out the map of Ningchuan Town, marked the missing places of these people on the map, and got a road map.

"Along this street, through the alleys here, all the way to the outside of the town, most of the missing people are around here, I want to go and meet, what kind of monster dare to make trouble in my territory."

Jiang Ran's idea is to walk along this route in person.

At this moment, it was raining lightly, and Yinjuan silently held up an oil-paper umbrella behind him, Jiang Ran realized that Yinjuan had been by his side all along.

The two walked side by side on the long street. Yinjuan was careful and deliberately walked on the windy side, using his body to shield him from the wind.

There was a hint of warmth in Jiang Ran's heart, he turned his head to look at Yinjuan, hesitated again and again, and still asked that question.

"Actually, I've always been curious about how you and I met in the previous life." Without waiting for Yinjuan to answer, Jiang Ran emphasized, "I know you don't really want to recall the past, if you don't want to say it, you don't have to. Say, don't force yourself."

"It's okay, I can tell you." The long street is quiet at this time, and they are so close, it is a good time to talk to each other.

"I used to...not be a demon cultivator. In fact, a long time ago, I was a cultivator of immortals."

Yin Juan's voice is very nice, and there is a feeling of eloquence, "In those days, immortal cultivators and demon cultivators were in a state of opposition, and the situation was the same. I was ordered to kill demons, and it was rare in the world. Until I met you."

Jiang Ran sighed in his heart, it turned out that he was so powerful in his previous life, no wonder he had so much blood on his hands.

"I couldn't beat you, and I was abolished by you, and then I changed my way of cultivating demons."

Wait a moment!The more Jiang Ran heard, the more something was wrong.

"Listen to you, you and I are inseparable? I abolished your cultivation and caused you to change your way of cultivating demons? No wonder your cultivation has not been able to improve. It turns out that you used to be a cultivator...then why did you come to find me?" I?"

Yin Juan tilted the oil-paper umbrella towards Jiang Ran, "Since I changed my way of cultivating demons, the world of cultivating immortals can't tolerate me, and the world of demon cultivators can't tolerate me. Only you can tolerate me."

Jiang Ran was silent for a while. Hearing about his past life for the first time, he had mixed feelings in his heart.

"So in the end, it was Sang Zhuo who killed me, not you?" He still couldn't figure it out. , follow me around?"

Yinjuan slowed down, looked sideways at Jiang Ran, and said frankly:

"Before you and I were just influenced by the contradictions and grievances between the world, and we couldn't help ourselves to choose. The winner and the loser were in your hands. I have nothing to say. At first, I was dissatisfied, but after getting along with you for a long time , I discovered that you are not a cruel and terrifying person."

Yin Juan did not specify Jiang Ran's identity, but passed on this complicated past.

And Jiang Ran also grasped the key from this past event, "So, Sang Zhuo punished me, to your surprise, you are my guard, and you think you failed to protect me?"

Jiang Ran finally knew the reason why Yinjuan couldn't fall asleep. It turned out that it was because of his death that left an indelible shadow on him.

Over the years, he has been blaming himself.

"I will never, never forgive myself." Yinjuan said word by word.

Talking about the past, Yinjuan was a little disappointed.Jiang Ran noticed the change in his mood. In his life, he was frank and free, so he hugged him in the street as a comfort.

"So are you a fool? You haven't been my bodyguard enough in your previous life, but you still want to be my bodyguard in this life?"

"You see, in this life, I am alone and have nothing to protect." Jiang Ran smiled at him, "So in this life, you don't have to follow me silently anymore, Yinjuan, you and I are equal of."

You can be friends, you can be a confidant, the only thing is... don't be a silly guard anymore.
