"What does this mean?" Chu Liang looked at Xue Lingxue who was standing aside.
That one is real, is this one still fake?
"No, it just doesn't look fake." Iron Hammer waved his hand, sorting out his words and said, "It's just that I've gone to investigate... and I can't really see any flaws. It's just like the real thing, oops!"
As she spoke, she became anxious and punched the air, making a fierce wind.
Seeing the stern look in the eyes of the people next to you, I thought to myself that no one is forcing you, so just speak slowly. Why are you so anxious with me?
After a long while, Iron Hammer explained the matter clearly.
It turned out that about half a month ago, news began to appear in the world that Xue Lingxue was going to tour somewhere. There are many famous people, and there have always been many rumors like this. Even if Nanyinfang heard about it, he didn't bother to pay attention to it.
But three days later, Xue Lingxue's tour actually completed there.
The nature of the matter is different now. Now that the tour is completed, someone must have gone. This is not an issue of spreading rumors, but an issue of someone pretending to be a disciple of Nanyinfang to deceive.
This kind of thing happened from time to time in the past. People pretended to be disciples of Nanyinfang and went to remote places to defraud money or sex. In the end, if there was any debt, Nanyinfang would always have to bear it.
So after this incident, Nanyinfang sent disciples to investigate, but the group's whereabouts were mysterious and they didn't leave any clues.
At this time, news came from another city that Xue Lingxue was going to tour here.
Nanyinfang immediately sent the fierce and powerful musician Iron Hammer to investigate with her big drum.
Iron Hammer arrived at the tour venue in advance and hid in the crowd. He wanted to expose the fake Xue Lingxue when he came on stage. But when the tour started and Xue Lingxue came on stage, Tie Hui was in a daze.
Because the man's appearance was exactly the same as Xue Lingxue's, and the sound of the piano he played actually had the same charm.
You know, no matter what kind of illusion method you use in the world, even if you disguise your appearance to be flawless, you can't disguise your piano playing skills.
Iron Hammer himself was in a daze.
Could it be that Xue Lingxue was really short of money and took over private work on her own?
So she broke into the backstage during a break in the performance, came to the "Xue Lingxue", and tested him out.
"I asked her why she performed here?" Tie Zhui said. "She told me that she hadn't been on stage for a long time and secretly came to perform here on her own initiative. She hoped not to explain it to the owner after she returned."
"When I talked to her, she was like Ling Xue, and her expression and voice were not like others. I agreed to her and then returned to Nanyinfang." Tie Zhui continued: "But not long after, the real Ling Xue came to me. Room, ask me how I handled today’s affairs.”
"I have been in seclusion for many days. After I came out, I heard that someone was pretending to be me, so I went to inquire." Xue Lingxue continued: "Unexpectedly, she said that it was me who asked her to keep quiet."
"This is surprising." Tie Zhui looked confused, "There is obviously no real energy fluctuation. Even if it is some superb magical power, it is impossible for her musical skills to be transformed as well."
Some people imitate my face, and others imitate my piano?
Listening to her description, Chu Liang also felt that this matter was a bit strange.
The Xiao sisters who were Yinghuo before were already the best in the world in the art of transformation, but they only had their appearance.
But this incident reminded him of another thing.
It was before this that the navy master had forged a golden toad in exchange for a treasure, pretending to convey the will of the Goddess of the South China Sea. The toad's fake golden toad is also very lifelike, and it's hard to see the slightest difference.
Could there be any connection between these two things?
However, the Golden Toad cannot replicate the real Golden Toad's ability to exchange treasures. It can only imitate it poorly and exchange some inferior magic weapons.
After a pause, he asked again: "Since you want my help, I guess you already know where the fake Miss Xue is going to go next, right?"
"That's right." Xue Lingxue nodded, "It is said that the tour will go all the way east, and the next one will arrive in Fuyao Country the day after tomorrow."
…
The coast of the East China Sea.
A tall man with an unusually long body, a dark face, and his arms reaching his knees stood on the edge of a cliff, looking at the stormy waves below, his eyes full of emptiness and despair.
"I missed me, Du, for half my life..."
He murmured in a sad voice.
"You try your best in everything, but you only end up with the bad reputation of surrendering to the enemy and betraying the Lord. How unfair is the world? How unfair is the world?"
"Although I did do it..."
"But it won't end in the end that everyone despises now, right?"
The person here is none other than Du Wuhen, the former leader of Thunder Castle.
When he was in Thunder Castle, he was tempted by Penglai with huge profits. He secretly communicated with him and provoked a conflict between Thunder Castle and Tianwang Sect. The sect was forced to turn to Penglai and became Penglai's lackey.
Later, the castle owner Huang Hanshan secretly held a grudge, which also caused Du Wuhen to almost die. In the end, he had no choice but to leave the sect and fall into the arms of Penglai.
I thought that Penglai would give him a lot of spirit stone coins, a lot of resources, and a lot of beauties as promised... But in the end, Taoist Xuanlu coldly threw the seriously injured him into the sea of demons and died. If he can be killed, we can talk about other things.
Struggling to survive, he was about to escape with the help of Chu Liang's light.
He was almost killed by Yang Buju who suddenly appeared. If his Qingfeng Divine Bird hadn't taken him back to Thunder Castle to seek medical treatment in time, he might have died at the bottom of the sea of demons.
Fortunately, when he was brought back to Thunder Castle, Huang Hanshan and Wei Tian were not there, and it was the soft-hearted Huang Ling'er who was in charge. Huang Ling'er secretly hid him elsewhere and treated him secretly for many days before he finally recovered.
But after he recovered, Huang Linger drove him away directly, not wanting to have any more interactions.
Saving his life was just out of friendship for being a former comrade.
That contemptuous look deeply hurt Du Wuhen's heart. I am clearly one of the Immortal Sect's geniuses, the best disciple of Thunder Castle's generation, how could I end up like this?
Could it be that the choice I made was really wrong?
Is it true that the humiliation in this life cannot be washed away?
What's the point of living like this?
As soon as he thought of this, Du Wuhen immediately raised the green sickle and smeared it on his throat!
"Ah--"
With a sharp cry, the scythe flashed with brilliance and turned into a green wind divine bird with spread wings, and escaped from Du Wuhen's hand.
"Qingfeng Divine Bird?" Du Wuhen looked at the big bird in front of him and gently stroked its neck, "You are the only one in the world who still cares about me, and you are the only one who still cares about my life, right?"
"I thought you were the genius of the world. I could have a hundred years of success by following you, and I had hope to go further. Looking at how weak you are now, you are nothing more than a good-for-nothing loser." Qingfeng Shenniao suddenly uttered human words, his eyes filled with tears. It's contempt: "Don't die in front of me, it will only bring bad luck to you."
After that, he spread his wings in the sky and flew away.
"..." Du Wuhen looked at the starlight that was flying away, and Vukong raised his hand to hold it, silent.
After a while, he burst into tears.
"You don't even want me anymore, now my life is completely meaningless." Du Wuhen shouted: "Ah——"
As he shouted, he slapped his heart with a palm.
But at this critical moment, an old voice suddenly came from the sea: "Stop! No!"
"Um?"
Du Wuhen didn't want to pay attention to it, but as the sound rang out, his palm couldn't fall down no matter what.
How is this going?
He looked at the visitor with strange eyes and saw a ball of red light floating in the sea. After the brilliance faded, an old man appeared, with an elegant and easy-going demeanor and a kind smile. At first glance, he was a very polite old man.
"Young man, I'm sorry for interrupting your suicide. I would like to sincerely apologize here." The old man spoke with great politeness, "But do you know that God has the virtue of good life? Since I saw it today, I can't let you die under any circumstances. In front of me."
"Old sir..." Du Wuhen is also a well-informed and well-informed genius of the Immortal Sect. A strong person in the Seventh Level will not have such magnanimity.
This old man is either a peak powerhouse in the seventh realm, or a Tianyuan in the eighth realm?
But in this vast East China Sea, it would be too much of a coincidence to meet an old man who is such a strong person. Could it be that the opportunity has come for me, Du?
Thinking of this, he lamented: "I have made mistakes for half my life, and now I am alone without friends or relatives. I have no joy in living. It is better to die."
"That's wrong, young man." The old man smiled and shook his head, "I have also made mistakes for half my life, and now I am also alone. But as long as I do good in the rest of my life, I can offset the sins of the past. As long as I live, there is hope. If If you die, there will be nothing left."
Du Wuhen didn't know whether he heard the second half, but only the first half. His brows moved, his eyes flashed, as if he had made some decision, and he suddenly fell to his knees.
"Old man, I owe you the grace of saving my life." He said loudly: "If you don't dislike me, I would like to worship you as my adoptive father and take care of you in your old age from now on!"
At this time, he had already made a desperate move to seize this opportunity. If the old man refuses, he won't be surprised at all; if the old man agrees, it will be even more unexpected.
But the old man's reaction was beyond his expectation.
It was an idea he had never imagined.
He saw the old man with unfathomable cultivation suddenly kneeling down facing him and shouting: "Don't you dare, it's too presumptuous. Thank you for your love, if you really have a request, let's become sworn brothers." Just be brothers!”
Happy May Day holiday to everyone!
