When he was alive, he was a wolf, roaring in packs for thousands of miles, drinking blood and eating meat and being unruly and happy. But after death, he was just a wandering soul, no different from flies, mice and thatch. After Lang Wan died, his memory was quickly washed away, and the judge said:
With a stroke of the pen, he was sent to the territory of a ghost king.
However, after some time passed, Lang Wan's true nature awakened. Compared to other evil wolves, he 'woke up' late. He spent fifteen years as a Yin soldier before he regained his true nature and escaped from the city in wolf form.
.
"I was very lucky. After escaping from the city, I couldn't find any trace of the wolf pack for a while. I couldn't return to the pack and became a lone wolf." Lang Wanyi is different from the evil wolves Su Jing has seen. He loves
He always smiles when he talks. Of course, his smile is not as exaggerated as that of Three Corpses Qi Donglai and others.
In the underworld, when we talk about the color change of wolves, thousands of ghosts and thousands of souls regard it as a ferocious and ominous sign. When the evil wolves gather in a group, all the ghost kings are frightened. But when the wolf is alone, everyone shouts and beats it, and the wolf awakens to his true nature.
Finally, once they return to their wolf form, unless they practice hard in the future, they will never be able to become human again and cannot hide their identities. Their fate can be imagined.
Being a lone wolf is extremely unlucky, but Lang Wanyi said he was lucky because he met an old man in red robe while wandering in a barren mountain.
The old man was in a very bad condition at that time. He was sitting against a big tree, his eyebrows were furrowed tightly, his body was shaking uncontrollably, and a bowl was lying crookedly next to him.
The memory of the past life will not be reborn with the awakening of the true nature, but the experiences in the underworld will always remain in the mind. Lang Wanyi also experienced many big scenes when he was a Yin soldier, so it can be seen that the old man in red robe has experienced a disaster.
He is very weak at the moment.
Following the style of the evil wolf in the underworld, when it sees a "living person", it pounces on him and bites him to death, swallowing the skin and bones. At this moment, the old man in red robe is completely powerless, so it is not difficult to eat him.
"But I didn't eat him. It's been so long, and I still find it incredible when I occasionally recall it. For some reason, I just didn't want to eat him at the time. It must have been God's will!" Lang Wanyi smiled.
The evil wolf raised its head and sniffed the old man's scent, then walked past the old man.
Unexpectedly, before he could go far, the old man in red robe suddenly opened his eyes. His expression remained painful, and his voice was difficult and unclear. But his tone was relaxed: "Where are you going?"
Lang Wanyi was surprised. He turned around hastily and his eyes were wary.
The old man didn't care and continued to talk: "Don't go anywhere, this barren mountain is rare. No one will come, but the barren mountain is surrounded by villages and towns. You are a wolf. You will die if you go out, so hide here first."
Lang Wanyi stared at the old man for a while, ignored his advice, turned around and ran away quickly.
Ten days later, the wolf returned to the same place. He had carefully explored the surroundings and found that what the old man said was true.
The old man in red robe was still sitting under the tree, looking weak, but the pain in his expression was much lighter, and the bowl was put away.
Seeing the evil wolf go and come back, the old man in red robe asked: "Have you looked around? Are you hungry? There are rabbits and deer in the mountains, they should be more delicious than me. Be patient, I will teach you how to leave in the future
The way here.”
If what the old man said was just delaying, he would not have persuaded the evil wolf to stay ten days ago. Lang Wanyi was flexible and figured it out, so he asked in a deep voice: "Teach me how to leave? Why do you want to
Help me?"
The old man's answer was simple: "Because you didn't eat me ten days ago."
"Because I didn't eat you? Is this how you repay your kindness?"
The old man pointed at the ground with his finger: "Don't be so vigilant. Sit down and feel more comfortable."
His ordinary smile seemed to have some strange magic power. Lang Wanyi sat down slowly. He was really tired from running around and lurking around these days.
"Whether it is the human world or the underworld, it is natural for wolves to kill and eat meat. To put it bluntly, you wanted to eat me ten days ago, which is natural for you." The old man in red robe continued: "But you didn't eat me, I
I have to be grateful. But I’m not grateful. I’m a human, not a wolf. To me, it’s my duty not to be eaten. If you’re not grateful, of course, you don’t have to repay your gratitude. I’ll teach you how to leave because: it’s fair.
.”
When he said the last two words, the old man's eyes lit up.
His eyes brightened, and he became energetic. The old man in red robe laughed and said, "You use your wrong to fulfill my right, and I will give you justice. Do you understand?"
Lang Wanyi doesn't understand.
But he probably knew that this old man in red robe with strange words would not harm him, and he still had no reason to trust him. However, for wolves, the term "reason" does not mean much, and their actions are more like
Rely on instinctive perception.
Soon after, the old man gradually regained his energy, and what he passed on to Lang Wanyi was not just one 'method', but a set of exercises, the Yunzhuo Fish Flame Manual.
That was a human cultivation method, which was not suitable for the cultivation of wolf souls. However, the old man in red robe was very knowledgeable and modified several key points of that method according to the wolf soul's physical characteristics. Lang Wanyi also developed an excellent skill from this.
What's especially rare is that he has a peerless master beside him to give him guidance, making his practice more effective with half the effort.
"It's truly a blessing in disguise. My luck is very good, very good." In front of Su Jing, Lang Wanyi took a long breath: "But that's not all. The longer we get along, the more I admire the old man in red robe. First, I admire him.
And then I was convinced.”
The old man in red robe is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Lang Wan likes to chat with the old man most when he is free from practice. Not only the world of the world, the scenery of the human world, but also his many principles about the universe, practice, and life, all attracted Lang Wan.
A heart full of longing and admiration.
The old man in red robe is not a man of few words, nor is he as unsmiling, cold and unapproachable as the imagined masters. He is very generous and easy-going.
"After chatting a lot, I gradually learned that senior Hongpao was originally a giant in the spiritual world. He founded a sect with eight other seniors and established the Lishan Sword Sect, which became famous all over the world." Lang Wanyi's voice was deep,
His tone was solemn: "He is your master. He is stationed at the Guangming Peak of Lishan Mountain and practices Yanghuo Zhengfa. He is the only descendant of the Golden Crow in the world, Lu Jiaoba."
Su Jing smiled, feeling proud for no reason.
After three months of getting along, Lang Wanyi proposed to Lu Jiao that he wanted to become his disciple, but Lu Jiao shook his head and refused.
The evil wolf bowed his head to the ground and said seriously: "In the world, we only know that dogs are loyal, but we don't know that dogs' loyalty comes from wolves. Although I am a son of a wolf, seniors should rest assured. If I can get seniors to accept me, I will
To follow you forever and ever.”
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Jiao interrupted: "It has nothing to do with whether you are a wolf or a human. I don't want to accept a disciple. Needless to say, it is a waste of time and effort. Get up quickly."
The Eight Patriarchs were determined, and Lang Wanyi had to give up no matter how unwilling he was. Another long period of time passed. Lu Jiao completely recovered his energy. He was ready to leave the barren mountain. However, after regaining his energy, Lang Wanyi could see clearly that the old man in red robe had no body.
Cultivation.
Lang Wanyi was worried: "In a few years, I will be able to cultivate the human form. Please wait patiently for a while, senior. When I have the human form, I will be able to protect you."
Lu Jiaoba answered something that Lang Wanyi didn't understand: "I'm no longer good at cultivation, but I still have a bowl, so don't worry."
Lang Wanyi asked again: "May I ask where you are going, senior? If I succeed in my practice in the future, I will definitely repay you for your kindness."
"Where are you going?" Lu Jiaoba shook his head slowly, took out his bowl from his pocket and rubbed it, the smile on his face became weird: "I don't know where I'm going, I just want to look for me.
Whose hands will he die in?"
After saying this, without even a word of explanation, the strange bowl was thrown into the air, turning into a ball of suffocating wind, wrapping up Lu Jiaoba and flying away quickly.
"I practiced in the mountains for another hundred years, and then returned to the world after I first mastered the fire technique. Then everything went smoothly, and I joined my companions. Because of my ability, I continued to accumulate military merits, and gradually achieved the position of general." Regarding his own situation, Lang said
Wan Yi passed by in passing: "Counting the time, senior Lu Jiao and I have been together for almost three years from beginning to end. In the eyes of his old man, Lang Wan Yi is just a 'fair' relationship between him and me in the underworld. But to me
To me, it is as great a favor as heaven pouring down upon me."
"I was not accepted by him. I am not his disciple, and I am not a descendant of Guangmingding. My greatness can only be regarded as a 'visit from a friend of Guangmingding'. Lang Wanyi never dared to look at Senior Lu Jiao's kindness.
Great Virtue, since you are his inheritance in the human world, I must take care of you no matter what."
After finishing speaking, Lang Wanyi took out a leather bag from his bag. The aroma of strong liquor was strong, and he swallowed it with his head held high. A wolf eats wine, not tea.
He drank half the bag in one breath, burped heavily, and passed the remaining half bag of wine from Lang Wanyi's hand to Su Jing's.
Su Jing was not in a hurry to drink and asked: "You came to send me a message. If you go back to the wolf pack, you might as well stay here with me." His worry was not unreasonable. Wolf nature is suspicious and most cunning. Lang Wanyi
No matter how cautious you are, there is no guarantee that the news will not leak out.
"Even if I'm not discovered, I don't have the shame to go back; it's even more impossible to stay here with you. How will I deal with myself when the Wolf brothers attack me in the future?"
"and you"
Lang Wanyi shook his head: "The underworld is vast, so don't worry about it."
The fate of coming to deliver a message would be, at worst, being hunted by the Wolf Lord, and turning from brothers and sisters into life-or-death enemies; at worst, being forever lonely for the rest of his life, having no face to face his former comrades, and being unable to integrate into the world of wandering souls.
Su Jing thought for a moment, raised his head and drank the remaining half of the bag of spirits. The Nether Wolf recognizes people with wine. Seeing Su Jing drinking his own wine, Lang Wan showed some warmth in his eyes and smiled: "If I can do it again,
Open your mouth to the sky and burp wine, and you will be perfect."
"I can't hiccup. I haven't hiccupped in many years." Su Jing said casually: "Wandering in the netherworld is not as good as the human world. Wouldn't it be good to leave the mountain and go to Guangmingding, where the Eight Ancestors are present and concentrate on cultivation from now on?"
Lang Wanyi's eyes suddenly brightened when he heard this, but soon dimmed again: "I know what kind of sect Lishan is, how can I tolerate a wolf soul?"
Su Jing smiled, trying to contain her pride: "It's just a sentence."
It’s really not bragging. Su Jing is the one who can send a friend to live in Guangmingding. Not to mention that Lang Wanyi has a relationship with the Eighth Patriarch. Lang Wanyi still can’t cheer up: “Ordinary wandering souls need to be able to enter the human world.
The judge released the seal, and which judge would release a wolf!"
"It's just a matter of one sentence." Su Jing put on his red robe, and compared to the previous sentence, Su Jing's tone was even calmer.
Feng Qingyun was calm enough, and Su Jing spoke again: "But before I send you there, I still have something to ask you." (To be continued...)
