On the heart-searching stage, Jiang Ning vaguely saw that there was another person in front of him.
I couldn't see his appearance clearly, but I could tell that he was a young man.
"Who are you?" Jiang Ning asked.
However, in fact, his physical body was still in a meditative state with his eyes closed and he did not speak at all.
Jiang Ning has already entered the interior of the Wenxin altar.
The figure opposite him replied: "My name is Jiang Ning..."
His name is Jiang Ning. This name sounds familiar, so what is his name... Questions flashed through Jiang Ning's mind, but he couldn't remember anything.
The only thing he could do was listen to the young man in front of him keep mumbling.
After drinking some tea, the young man finished speaking the last part, stopped and looked at him, and said, "Do you remember?"
Jiang Ning said confusedly: "I remember, but you seem to have missed something. When Jiang Ning was in Meng County, he had actually..."
boom!
As he was speaking, his mind suddenly became clear.
Bronze Compass, who was determined to take Xiao Transparent to the end, was finally angered by his unsatisfactory master and took action.
Under the light of the bronze compass, Jiang Ning's pupils regrouped at an extremely fast speed, and his eyes immediately regained their clarity, and the young figure originally in front of him also disappeared as his vision became clearer.
Jiang Ning was greatly shocked.
He was not sure what happened to him for a moment. He only vaguely remembered that Bronze Compass took action at the last moment, seeming to prevent him from telling any secrets.
what is it then?
Just as Jiang Ning was thinking about it, the orbs on the platform were extinguished one after another.
The thick fog dissipated, and the hunchbacked old man appeared in front of Jiang Ning.
"You have a lot of secrets." An old and hoarse voice sounded, with a hint of malicious teasing in the hunchbacked old man's tone.
He is still confused in his head. What exactly did he experience in the Heart-Questioning Platform just now? What is the secret that the bronze compass stopped?
Why can't I remember anything?
Unable to remember what he said, Jiang Ning did not dare to talk nonsense for a while.
The hunchbacked old man continued: "Tell me, how come you, a cultivator from Kyushu, got mixed up with the lackeys in the restricted area of life?"
It was hard to laugh or cry, a total of four people came in, and it turned out that three of them were from the restricted area of life. The hunchbacked old man was so angry at this group that he laughed.
Only then did Jiang Ning realize that Sun Jun was missing.
"You don't have to look for him. If you didn't have the stench of the restricted area, the four of you would have been reunited by now." The hunchbacked old man said.
Jiang Ning: "..."
Now that we have talked about this, Sun Jun knows what will happen without even thinking about it.
But, what is the stance of the hunchbacked old man?
Suppressing and killing lackeys in restricted areas may not necessarily mean that they are good people, they may also be gangsters...
Under his pressure, Jiang Ning had no choice but to carefully consider his words and tell the story of how he got here, with mixed truths and falsehoods.
Regardless of whether the hunchbacked old man believed it or not, Jiang Ning believed it himself.
When he finished speaking, the hunchbacked old man's eyes flickered.
It wasn't until cold sweat broke out on Jiang Ning's forehead that he stared at her, then he slowly sighed and said, "That's all, among the shortest, you will be the tallest."
What's up to me?
Jiang Ning's face was full of confusion, what was the hunchbacked old ghost doing?
"I will never die. It seems that I am alive and immortal. In fact, the depths of my soul have long been infected by the ghost realm of Fengdu. I have resisted the ghost realm for hundreds of years, and my soul has been extremely depleted. Now I can no longer hold on for much longer.
.”
The hunchbacked old man talked about his own affairs.
"Every day is like a year, and a hundred years are like a day. The purpose is to wait for the day when I can personally hand over the things left by the master behind him to his destined person without falling into the hands of the restricted area."
"I didn't expect that this hundred-year wish would be fulfilled today..."
Listening to the story of the hunchbacked old man, Jiang Ning also saw the true side of the secret realm of the ruins.
The secret realm is the cave of a strong semi-immortal, and the hunchbacked old man is his servant. This strong man was injured by the creatures in the restricted area and fled back to the cave, but he never thought that the creatures in the restricted area would also chase him here.
The two masters and servants joined forces, and with the help of the Xingsha River, Colorful Bridge and other mechanisms in the cave, they also used their lives to exchange their lives. After a fierce battle, they brought the strong man in the restricted area to death together.
Because the hunchbacked old man was not the main force in the battle, and because he practiced unique skills, he retained his complete soul when he died, and later survived to this day with the help of colorful spiritual crystals.
But the forbidden areas are all depraved, dark, and mysterious. The creature in the forbidden area died here, and his aura merged with the hunchbacked old man in the soul state, which actually caused the penetration of the power of the ghost realm.
At this point, the hunchbacked old man was contaminated with ghost energy and turned into a century-old ghost and stayed here.
After so many years, he came up with new ideas in the process of fighting against the erosion of ghost energy again and again.
That is to use the resources of the master during his lifetime to cultivate a sharp blade, so as to avenge the master and himself.
However, mountains and rivers are constantly changing. Due to the changes in the ground, the entrance to the cave gradually disappeared and was replaced by a tall mountain.
It is overgrown with vegetation and no one cares about it all year round.
During this period, there were also practitioners who entered this place by mistake, but they either had poor foundation or bad intentions. In short, the various shortcomings made the hunchbacked old man unsatisfied.
Year after year, day after day, the soul of the hunchbacked old man became weaker and weaker under the erosion of the power of the ghost realm. He began to fear that one day he would suddenly die and would not be able to fulfill his last wish.
So, after someone accidentally broke in again, he made a small plan and spread the news about the secret place of the ruins through other people's mouths.
However, the harvest was meager.
Until this rumor was revealed to Sun Jun.
I thought that there would be good prospects among the people who came this time, but when he saw a few people for the first time, the hunchbacked old man laughed angrily.
Damn it, there are four of us, three of them are off limits!
Even if the last one isn't, I'm afraid it's not very clean.
The hunchbacked old man was furious. If his soul hadn't been so weak, he almost couldn't hold back and slap Jiang Ning to death.
Fortunately, Jiang Ning worked hard and passed the test of the Heart-Questing Altar.
The Wenxin Altar can be used to peer into the past. Through the altar, the hunchbacked old man saw Jiang Ning's enmity with several forbidden areas, including the forbidden area that killed their master and servant.
What the hunchbacked old man didn't expect was that Jiang Ning actually got the Wilderness Token.
Anything can be faked, but tokens cannot be faked.
Anyone who has a token will definitely be killed in the restricted area.
The two sides have a deadly feud.
It was precisely because of this that the hunchbacked old man felt a little more comfortable, so after the current scene, he told Jiang Ning about the past in a sincere and thoughtful manner.
After saying all this, the hunchbacked old man sighed and looked melancholy.
After a hundred years of waiting, it has not been in vain.
"I hope you can inherit your master's last wish, level the restricted area, and restore peace to the Nine Provinces Continent."
Jiang Ning listened quietly, looking a little complicated.
He did not expect that so many things could be involved in one ruins, especially the spirit of the master and servant of the ruins against the restricted area, which made him admire them very much.
After bowing deeply to the hunchbacked old man, Jiang Ning said without changing his expression: "Since senior has recognized me, why not let me just take away everything in the ruins.
It would be too troublesome to break through all the way. When I use these resources to become land gods in the future, I will clear the restricted area and let the two seniors rest in peace."
"Cough cough cough..."
The hunchbacked old man coughed when he heard this, and cursed angrily: "Little bastard, do you believe it or not? I'll slap you to death, old man!"
