The sun is scorching, the sun moxibustion is roasting the earth, the steam is steaming, and the sky and the earth are like a big steamer.
There is a large building decorated in red and green in the west of Beimin City. Under the strong sunlight, it faintly emits an unpleasant smell, as if something is rotten.
The plaque on the main entrance of the building reads "Piaohongyuan" in three golden characters, and a dazzling red cloth flower hangs above the plaque.
At this time, the closed door opened with a creak, and a young man with a smile on his face walked out.
The clothes this young man wore were fairly modest, but the dark color made it seem like the clothes hadn't been washed for an unknown amount of time.
A smooth arm with red nail polish on its five fingers stretched out and weakly closed the door.
I saw that this young man had just taken a few steps out of Piaohongyuan. He unconsciously rubbed his index finger under his nose a few times, and his smiling face immediately became extremely gloomy.
"It's never too late for a villain to take revenge! Ten years is not too late! The damn old bustard actually gave me one hundred red spar less! When I get rich, I will buy this Piaohong Courtyard and let you, the old bustard, pick up the guests in one day.
One hundred strong men!"
This young man's name is Ling Xiao. He is an orphan and made a living by begging before he was fourteen years old.
Later, he encountered some fateful encounter that made him learn to refine a special pill that only men who are looking for flowers and those with "weak constitution" need.
From then on, Ling Xiao started doing business with Piaohongyuan.
Ling Xiao walked home depressedly. When he walked to the street, he found that there were more people on the street than when he came just now.
"Isn't that big guy in blue clothes a soul master from the Beimin sect in the back mountain of Beimin City? He usually comes to our Beimin City and drags you around like a 258,000 yuan man. Why did he turn into a grandson in front of these guys today?
?They must be more powerful soul masters than the Beimin Sect!"
Seeing this guy's groveling look, Ling Xiao secretly thought to himself, if he was also a powerful soul master, he would definitely let that guy bring him water to wash his feet.
Divine soul masters and demon soul masters are collectively called chain soul masters. They are powerful men in this world. They are aloof and rule over ordinary people like rulers.
Ling Xiao had heard someone say that a high-level chain soul master could open mountains and reclaim seas with just a wave of his hand, which was very powerful.
The so-called soul masters are because they claim to be the protectors of ordinary people.
The Demon Soul Master is the butcher of civilians and the incarnation of the devil.
"Residents of Beimin City, listen, there is a demon hiding in Beimin City. Please leave all residents of Beimin City immediately, otherwise, you will be responsible for your life or death!"
Waves of deep and long voices came from the sky. When Ling Xiao heard it, he felt that the voice gave people a condescending and unquestionable feeling.
"Is there a demon? Are you leaving Beiming City?" Ling Xiao immediately thought of the things hidden in the pit under the bed at home, and looked at the groups of people who were screaming in fear and rushing to leave the city.
He gritted his teeth and ran quickly towards his home.
Suspended in the sky outside Beimin City is a huge boulder with a surface that looks like dry wrinkled tree bark. Below it, suspended are tens of thousands of soul masters.
These soul masters all had necklaces hanging around their necks. The gems on the necklaces were shining brightly, and yellow, green, and cyan rays of light rose from the gems and flew toward the boulder.
The boulder kept absorbing the light and quickly began to undergo changes.
Buzz! The dry wrinkled skin on the stone's body peeled off layer by layer, revealing a huge eyeball!
That eyeball emits a large ray of light that is the same color as the sun, and silently shines on everyone who leaves the city...
***
With a "bang", Ling Xiao kicked open the already broken door of her home, and rushed in without even having time to take a breath.
Suddenly, a sharp pain like a sharp knife stabbing directly into the brain made Ling Xiao cover his head and fall to the ground, shouting: "Ah——"
"Huh?! He's not dead yet?" A slight sound of surprise came from a corner of Ling Xiao's home.
Ling Xiao's head was covered with sweat and his face was pale. The sting just now almost made him lose all his strength. He weakly raised his head and looked in that direction.
A skinny old man in black robes covered in blood was staring at him curiously. Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel a shocking feeling when he saw the dense wounds on the old man's body.
Thinking of the terrible stinging pain in his brain just now, no matter how idiotic he is, he knows that the old man in front of him is the person that the majestic voice said, and he can't help but secretly scream in his heart: "The devil?! He is hiding in my house! No way!
Right? Why do I, Ling Xiao, never have such good luck when I gamble!?"
The old man suddenly murmured to himself: "The two souls of gods and demons...it turns out to be the twin souls of gods and demons. I don't know why, but they still have such strong spiritual power. It's no wonder..."
Ling Xiao couldn't hear what the old man was whispering at all, but kept staring at the old man with his eyes, like a wounded beast looking at a hunter.
As if sensing Ling Xiao's gaze, the old man looked up at Ling Xiao. Those deep eyes were like a pair of sharp swords, as if they were about to pierce Ling Xiao's heart: "Little guy, everyone in the city is fleeing."
Yeah, why don’t you run away?”
Even though he was filled with fear, panic, and resentment, Ling Xiao still had a smile like a spring breeze on his face: "I heard that a devil is coming. I am a poor man. It is not easy to save some savings. I will pack up my belongings before running away."
.Old man, who are you? Why are you in my house? Is it because the devil is here and you can’t walk?"
The old man held the wound on his chest an inch away from his heart, closed his eyes and groaned twice: "Give me a bowl of water."
Ling Xiao rubbed his nose with his index finger, stood up and walked to the table. He picked up the kettle with his right hand and a broken bowl with his left hand. He poured water into the bowl and filled it up. He clasped the mouth of the bowl with his thumb and handed the bowl over.
He walked over and said, "Old man, drink some water."
The old man slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Ling Xiao expressionlessly, and took the bowl of water.
Ling Xiao stared at the old man with his eyes tightly, licked his lower lip with his tongue, swallowed hard, and his Adam's apple moved.
The old man drank the bowl of water without saying a word. Ling Xiao felt relieved, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his dirty sleeves, and took the broken bowl from the old man's hand.
"This poison is well prepared. Did you prepare it yourself?" the old man suddenly said, with an appreciative smile on his face.
This smile fell into Ling Xiao's eyes, but it was like a devil's smile. His hands trembled and he instinctively grabbed the bowl that he almost let go: "Old man, what did you say?"
Ling Xiao looked at the old man with an innocent face, as if he had been greatly wronged. If it had been anyone else, he would have felt that he had wronged Ling Xiao and felt embarrassed.
Unfortunately, the old man Ling Xiao met was not an ordinary person.
The old man sneered and said: "Boy, stop pretending! I give you two roads, one is a dead end..."
Feeling the fierce murderous aura in the old man, Ling Xiao quickly shouted: "I choose the second option!"
Looking at the half-smiling smile on the old man's face, he seemed to know that Ling Xiao would definitely choose the second option.
Ling Xiao suddenly felt that he had been fooled and had chosen a road of no return that seemed like a way to survive. He asked with some trembling: "What is the second road...?"
The old man said calmly: "The second way is simple, that is, you become the disciple of my ancestor of the Seven Demons and avenge me."
Ling Xiao roared angrily in his heart: I'm gone! You old devil, now you accept me as your disciple, won't I be torn into pieces by those soul masters outside? Even if you are going to die, you old guy will die on your own.
Okay, why do you have to use me as your backing?
Seeing Ling Xiao hesitate, the Seven Demons Ancestor snorted coldly: "What? Don't you want to?"
"How come the poison can't kill you old thing!" Ling Xiao kept greeting the countless generations of ancestors of this old devil in his heart, plus all the women in the family, old and young.
Of course, even if there were thousands of unwillingnesses, Ling Xiao would not write those unwillingnesses on his face, but hurriedly put on all the smiles: "How can there be no unwillingness? Master is such a powerful senior Gao
I wish you could be accepted as your disciple! I don’t know what it is about me that makes you so attracted to me..."
The ancestor of the Seven Demons chuckled and said: "Shameless, vicious, hypocritical and insidious, these are the four criteria for accepting disciples, ancestor, haha!"
Ling Xiao rolled his eyes countless times in his heart. Is he as unbearable as that old guy said? If he is really so unbearable, he must have been forced by you, an old monster.
However, since the old man said so, Ling Xiao could only kowtow three times in a "ceremonious" manner: "Disciple pays homage to master."
While he was apprenticed, Ling Xiao kept thinking about Xiao Jiujiu: "Forget it, promise him first. If you don't agree, he will die immediately. If you agree, he can live for a while. He can live for a while. Wait until this old thing is gone.
As soon as my legs kicked off, I went to confess in front of those soul masters, saying that I was forced, and they would not have trouble with an ordinary person like me."
Just as Ling Xiao was thinking to himself, a green light suddenly flashed in the palm of the Seven Demons Ancestor's hand, and he pressed hard on the top of his head.
Buzz!
Ling Xiao felt like his mind was spinning. Weird power came from the hands of the ancestor of the Seven Demons and rushed into every corner of his body.
"Ah!" Waves of stinging pains like a knife cutting flesh came from Ling Xiao's body, torturing Ling Xiao to death, death, and resurrection.
After the Lingchi-like pain passed, Ling Xiao suddenly felt that there was an extra necklace around his neck. The necklace was strung with seven gems shining with dark tones, and countless black energy swirled around the gem.
.
As soon as Ling Xiao thought about it, a strange space appeared in his mind: a dark red space filled with various crystal stones, medicinal materials, books that Ling Xiao knew, and weird metals that he didn't recognize.
and non-metallic substances.
Ling Xiao estimated the quantity and value of those crystals. Based on his current income from selling medicine, he might not be able to earn that much in his lifetime!
And the medicinal materials contained in this space were all things he had seen before in that alchemy book but thought they were nothing!
Ling Xiao swallowed hard, and his first reaction was to take out an orange spar worth one hundred red spar. Without any warning, the orange spar fell into his hands!
A man is not rich without windfall, and a horse is not fat without night grass.
"Oh my God..." Ling Xiao almost doubted whether he was dreaming, so he pinched his thigh hard. After hearing his howling like a pig, he knew he was not dreaming.
After being ecstatic for a while, Ling Xiao finally remembered the old man who had given him all this: "Master, what are you..."
The Seven Demons Ancestor's eyes, which were still hale and hearty, narrowed slightly. Although his appearance did not seem to have changed, Ling Xiao could still feel that the Seven Demons Ancestor's vitality was rapidly passing away.
"I actually have such a keen sense!" Ling Xiao was secretly surprised. This necklace, which actually existed in his body but could not be seen from the outside, improved his physical and mental strength in just a few seconds.
How many times!
The ancestor of the seven demons said coldly: "It's nothing. Do you still like this seven soul demon chain? Well, time is running out. I will tell you now what you need to do to be my apprentice."
