Except for the person involved, Wu Tian, all the team members felt a little unnatural when they saw Qi Zhen talking like this.
Unnaturalness is only shown on their faces, but is it more than just unnatural in their hearts?
If I had to use one word to describe everyone's mood, I'm afraid only the word "shock" would be the most appropriate.
At least from the beginning of the game to the present time point, Wu Tian, as a Shushan Sword Immortal, although his three views are not completely consistent with everyone in the team, it has to be said that Wu Tian actually does not owe the team anything at all.
Rather than asking everyone in the team to participate in this test to make things difficult for everyone, it is more appropriate to say that he wanted to rely on this matter to block the gossip of the elders in Shushan.
In addition, he has helped the team several times before, either intentionally or unintentionally, and he has been a life-saving favor to the team. Logically speaking, Qi Zhen's attitude really makes no sense.
Is Qi Zhen crazy?
It is naturally impossible, so there is only one possibility.
Qi Zhen once again thought of something that no one in the team had imagined, or that there were some unknown stories and reasons for the team's adventure here this time.
So the four of them just felt disappointed because this incident led to Yu Liang's death, and they didn't want to deal with this powerful swordsman who gave the team a mission. However, Qi Zhen was completely different, and their cold eyebrows almost reached the level of hatred.
Perhaps it was because Qi Zhen knew that she could not beat the other party. Anyway, she fought and scolded her. After this hearty beating and scolding, Qi Zhen finally calmed down.
Wu Tian did not do anything drastic, his eyes were slightly squinted, as if he was sleepy when they first met, as if he was waiting for Qi Zhen's next question.
Not only Wu Tian, but also the remaining three team members stared at Qi Zhen, who was pale and panting. They were also waiting for him to calm down his mood and say what could truly support his behavior. reason.
Qi Zhen took a few deep breaths, gritted her teeth and said word by word: "Did you already know about Xiao Ao?"
"Yes." Wu Tian nodded.
"So you also know that Zhang Zongchang's incident is actually related to Xiao Ao, right?"
"yes."
"You also know that the reason why he did this is for the Red Ghost King, right?"
"Know."
"You know that the Oni King who appears here is not the King of Ni at all, but the Red Oni King, right?"
"right."
"So you deliberately asked Xiao Ao to join us and stay with us. In fact, dealing with the Red Ghost King is one aspect. In fact, the test is to see how we people can solve these problems like clowns, right?"
"I never thought of you as clowns, but you're right."
"So whether you give us the Celestial Master Talisman or tell us it's simple, in fact, the test of our combat power is not at all, but a matter of choice. Am I wrong?"
"That's right."
"Then why are you pretending to be sorry?! I forgive you, uncle! I still think of you as a good person, damn!"
Qi Zhen didn't care whether Wu Tian could understand it or not. She suddenly pointed her middle finger at Wu Tian with her right hand, which was a summary of her question.
If Yu Liang was still alive, he should be able to stuff a whole egg into his mouth at this time.
Although Yu Liang and Lin Xiao no longer rely on their expressions and words to express the inconceivability of this matter, this does not mean that the surprise in everyone's hearts can be reduced.
Whether it was Jiang Yan or Meng Ran, or even the calmest Li Qiang, there was an extremely unbelievable sense of absurdity in their hearts.
And as witnesses of the whole incident, apart from being unbelievable, several people calmed down and thought about it, and they all had a sudden realization.
I see.
It all made sense.
But why?
Perhaps in front of Xiao Ao, it was difficult for everyone in the team to have any effective communication with Xiao Ao.
But things are different now.
Their thoughts are now highly consistent with Qi Zhen's. After their teammates died inexplicably, which seemed to be a matter of course, they needed Xiao Ao to give them a clear explanation.
Explain all their doubts.
What is going on with this unclear plot and mission?
Wu Tian didn't care much about the anger and dissatisfaction shown by Qi Zhen at this time, as well as the fierceness and inner sorrow after being concealed. These were all things that he should show.
If Qi Zhen still couldn't guess it at this time, it would be in vain that Wu Tian valued these people in front of him so much. If Qi Zhen still didn't tell the truth after seeing through it, then Wu Tian's heart might not be as simple as not valuing them.
So after Qi Zhen properly vented her true feelings, Wu Tian didn't let the four of them wait for too long, and slowly opened his mouth to tell the whole story.
The matter is actually not complicated. The team just doesn't know the true face of Mount Lu, just because they are in this mountain.
The first half of the story has been explained by Yuyao, and what Wu Tian learned about was after Xiao Ao came to Wuhu.
So the team connected all the things together through Wu Tian's narration.
Two hundred years ago, Xiao Ao, who had just started practicing and had not yet transformed into a human form, saw through the barrier outside the mountain. The caravan where the Red Ghost King was was destroyed by the sea of skeletons. It happened that Princess Yuyao of Ren passed by here and rescued the dying Red Ghost King. Next, Xiao Ao was eager to be the savior and gave all the demonic power he had acquired shortly after practicing to the Red Ghost King. After that, Lingzhi returned to chaos and began to wander alone in the Dabie Mountains.
Maybe Yu Yao wanted to help, or King Ren couldn't bear it after knowing this. In short, after the Red Ghost King settled down here, Xiao Ao began to practice with peace of mind. In just a short time, he lost his body. The demon power comes back from practicing again.
When Yao Lixiu came back, his brain was like a new one. Xiao Ao had no impression of what happened before, but he just felt that there seemed to be something here that he couldn't let go of.
When he was strong enough, he left here and began to travel around, but he always returned to the Dabie Mountains unconsciously.
On the other side, it is one thing for the Red Ghost King to survive, but it is another thing to live well.
A businessman who is half human and half demon obviously cannot live in this tomb forever without any end.
This time Yuyao did not come forward, but found Yao Shuji, asked her to start contact with Xiao Ao, and told him some things that had happened before.
When the time was right, he was brought to the current location of the blood pool and saw the red ghost king who had changed beyond recognition. Having no demon power but not cultivating it is like sailing against the current without advancing or retreating. The Red Ghost King is already very weak and relies entirely on the blessing of Yu Yao's ghost power to maintain this state of being alive or dead.
Due to the conflict between ghost power and the aura of the living, Yuyao did not dare to teach the other party the techniques she had practiced. Therefore, the Red Ghost King at that time looked extremely miserable.
At this time, eighty years had passed since the caravan was massacred by the Sea of Skeletons.
Xiao Ao quickly decided to do his best to save the life of the Red Ghost King, and did not want his master to die in the dark underground.
Even if those memories no longer exist, the feeling in his heart cannot deceive himself.
So he followed Yao Shuji's instructions and began to collect the souls and ghosts who died unjustly. According to Yao Shuji's request, he gathered those souls here to form the blood pool underground.
Little did they know that the plans provided by Yao Shuji to Xiao Ao were all the best plans that Yuyao and Renwang came up with after hard thinking.
They have never tried this plan, and they are not sure whether it can be successful.
But the result is not bad.
In the next twenty years, the Red Ghost King became more and more conscious, and gradually changed from passively accepting the wronged souls to actively absorbing and practicing.
But this won't work.
Absorbing evil ghosts and resentful spirits forever, no matter whether his body can bear it or not, if the resentment and hatred contained in them is absorbed for a long time, the Red Ghost King will definitely become the most powerful ghost.
Therefore, one last thing is needed, and that is the spiritual power of ghosts and immortals.
The spiritual power and righteousness of a Ghost Immortal can neutralize all the evil spirits in the Red Ghost King. At that time, the Red Ghost King will be truly unharmed and may even achieve the rank of immortal.
But if you insist on absorbing the power of ghosts and immortals, not only will it not neutralize the evil spirit of the Red Ghost King, it will also cause the two to conflict, and all efforts will be ruined.
This requires that the ghost immortal also has a trace of evil energy from the same source as a bridge or guide.
Another hundred years later, Xiao Ao came to Wuhu.
He didn't know if it was a deliberate joke between God and him, or if Xiao Ao's accumulated virtue by capturing resentful spirits and evil spirits over the past hundred years had reached a critical point.
Twenty years ago, he became an immortal and transformed into a land within a radius of four hundred miles.
Then he learned about the evil dragon walking in the river, and met a person through the evil dragon walking in the river.
Zhang Zongchang.
And Wu Tian only saw this owl for the first time when Xiao Ao became an immortal.
He didn't have to pay so much attention to him.
But he was actually very concerned about the movements of the evil dragon.
So tracing back to the source, with Wu Tian's ability, it is not difficult to investigate Xiao Ao's details.
Wu Tian found this matter interesting, but he did not rely on his own ability to interfere with the direction of the story.
Then Xiao Ao "stole" the skills he had practiced in Yuyao from Yao Shuji and gave them to Zhang Zongchang in an unknown way.
He himself began to wait silently for everything to reach the ending he expected.
One day, by the creek outside Jiuzi, a village gangster came here following a gorgeously dressed woman.
The story about the team begins here.
