After I was resurrected from the dead, I turned from an old man to a peerless beauty

"The way of longevity..."

Lin Mao murmured and repeated this sentence.

These four simple words ruined his most carefree youth, ruined his loving master in his heart, ruined his senior brother whom he loved so much in his life, ruined the love that he had in his life. Brothers and brothers who were once as close as brothers...

Lin Mao didn't expect that even if decades had passed—even if he had been resurrected once, he still couldn't escape the nightmare brought by these four words.

There was a dull pain in my chest that could not be described in words.

In fact, Lin Mao himself knew that although he kept asking Xing Xinglin where the evidence was, in fact, he already had the answer in his heart.

After pretending to be deaf and dumb for so many years, he almost deceived himself, but he must wake up after a big dream. At this moment, Lin Mao couldn't help deceiving himself and others anymore.

Thinking of this, Lin Mao raised his eyes suddenly, but happened to meet Xing Xinglin's probing eyes.

A well-behaved apprentice has now turned into an inhuman voodoo, I am afraid it is impossible for ordinary people to accept it...

Even if Xing Xinglin didn't say a word, Lin Mao seemed to be able to hear the whisper in the man's heart.

"Guzhu Lin, there are some things that are actually better not known than known. For things in this world, it's best not to be ignorant." Xing Xinglin spoke at the right time and said meaningfully.

"It's rare to be confused? Since you have already pointed out Chang Xiaoqing's identity in front of me, what are you talking about now?"

Lin Mao replied bluntly.

My heart is still in a trance, as if in a dream.

But even in a dream, the dull pain still couldn't be concealed.

In the dim memory, the numb corpses stacked together in the cave and Chang Xiaoqing's appearance of lowering his head and gazing at himself meekly are intertwined and constantly changing...

【"Cat, don't look."】

It seemed that he also heard Senior Brother Chang's painful voice.

【"I'm sorry for you..."】The words that the senior brother said to him before he died.

【"Master...I won't go anywhere, and I will stay with Master for the rest of my life."】

Even though he has grown into a young man, he always wants to say such childish words in his own ears...

……

Lin Mao suddenly let out a muffled cough.

"Master Lin?!"

Xing Xinglin couldn't help but speak.

Lin Mao raised his hand to him... and another person in the room waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

"It's ok."

He slowly swallowed back the blood gushing out of his throat, and after adjusting his breathing for a while, his boiling heart slowly calmed down.

But with this bruise, Lin Mao's heart seemed to be much clearer in an instant.

"Well, it doesn't matter if it's a human or not, even if my Lin Mao's disciple is really a Gu, so what?" Lin Mao whispered suddenly, with a relieved smile on his face, but he What I didn't know was that the smile on his face made people feel even more frightened.

"What is going on with my Xiaoqing's body? Since you said he is a pupa body, you should also know that the body of a Gu worm like a pupa body is the strongest. Why is Xiaoqing still motionless now, with no sense of consciousness? No? What is going on here, you'd better tell me honestly and clearly."

As soon as he raised his head, Lin Mao's aura changed, and he looked extremely cold and indifferent.

Xing Xinglin's body froze, and he was about to turn around, but he felt the hairs on his back stand up, and the intense sense of crisis was creepy.It seemed that something extremely dangerous and terrifying sneaked up behind him at the moment when he was slightly distracted from speaking earlier...

Xing Xinglin was still waiting to look back, but he couldn't move because of Lin Mao's next words, his hands and feet trembled slightly, as if he couldn't find the place to put it.

"Doctor Xing, if I were you, I would never look back. After all, we will have a detailed discussion between the two of us later. If you make a mistake, doctor, it is really not beautiful."

"Guzhu Lin said so."

Xing Xinglin's body was as stiff as a puppet and he sat there blankly, responding dryly.

Behind him, where he couldn't see, Jia Ruo's head was pulled by the vines and hung in the air, looking at Lin Mao across his shoulder for a moment.

In that short moment, Lin Mao seemed to see himself reflected in the two-color pupils.

As if wrapped in ice chips and blades, against such a young and beautiful thin figure, he looked extraordinarily strange.

Dozens of vines seemed to hang down beside Jia Ruo's cheeks, but the slender silk-like tendrils curled up, vaguely touching the back of Xing Xinglin's neck and ears exposed in the air.

They exude a very slight aroma, which comes from the venomous hairs.As long as Lin Mao is willing, those vines will wrap around Xing Xinglin's neck without hesitation, and it won't take long for those deadly poisons to melt the old man into a puddle of stinky blood.

Obviously, even though he couldn't see them, Xing Xinglin was still keenly aware of the danger.

"Doctor Xing..."

Seeing that Xing Xinglin seemed to be startled, he didn't say anything for a long time, Lin Mao couldn't help urging him.

That Xing Xinglin's body trembled slightly, as if he wanted to jump up from the spot and run away - but he still didn't move.

"Please allow me to take a closer look at Chang Shaoxia's body..."

With trembling voice, Xing Xinglin said to Lin Mao cautiously.

Lin Mao nodded, motioning for Xing Xinglin to step forward.

In front of Lin Mao, Xing Xinglin stripped off all the quilts and clothes covering Chang Xiaoqing's body and began to examine them carefully.

And after he did this, Lin Mao was a little surprised to find that the wounds on Chang Xiaoqing's body caused by the battle of Tianxian Pavilion had healed.He lay there quietly, his naked body became stronger and more muscular after being unwrapped by the cloth, his limbs were slender and straight, every muscle was extraordinarily plump, and his skin was tightly stretched On the surface of the muscle, there was a kind of luster almost like jade.Even just looking at it, one can already deeply feel the full strength and true energy contained in this body - I have to admit that in terms of body shape, it seems that even Senior Brother Chang is quite inferior.

Lin Mao was still focused on watching Xing Xinglin fiddling with Chang Xiaoqing's body up and down carefully, but some fleeting images from many years ago flashed through his mind, which made him feel uneasy for some reason, and then he felt slightly uncomfortable. Averted his gaze a little.

Fortunately, Xing Xinglin's investigation didn't take much effort. Not long after, Lin Mao heard Xing Xinglin's faintly confused voice——

"Strange, strange..."

"What's so strange? But what's wrong?!" Lin Mao asked.

Xing Xinglin frowned, and his old face was almost squeezed into a bitter gourd: "If you say it's wrong, there's nothing wrong with it. Well, in fact, Chang Shaoxia's body doesn't look serious if you look at the pulse. It's just whether he has been hurt before. Heavy injury?" Seeing Lin Mao nodded, Xing Xinglin continued to pinch his beard and said, "It seems that it is... Chang Shaoxia's body is actually not exactly the same as the pupa bodies I know, I'm afraid When he was young, his body was tampered with. His growth should be much slower than that of a real pupa."

"Yes."

In fact, Chang Xiaoqing has always been skinny since she was sent to Wangyou Valley.Compared to Ji Wuming and Jin Lingzi who Lin Mao had kept by his side at that time, Chang Xiaoqing was simply a little chick that couldn't be carried on the table.

It was Lin Mao who was worried that he would not adapt to the lonely environment in Wangyou Valley, so he took him by his side and took care of him in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and slowly raised this scrawny little man into such a strong young man like a bull.

"There are still many places on his body, which have been deliberately maintained to look like ordinary people. Thinking about it, the person who left Chang Shaoxia to you was very afraid to let you know his life experience and origin. It's a pity that this physical change is concealed. You can't hide it for a while, in my opinion, as early as five or six years ago, there should have been changes in Chang Shaoxia—"

Lin Mao was a little taken aback.

There were clues five or six years ago?

He thought carefully about Chang Xiaoqing five or six years ago, but found that his mind was blank.

That's right, when Lin Mao was seriously ill five or six years ago, he was in a daze every day, relying on Chang Xiaoqing to take care of things in the valley, and the queen to dress him and serve him with medicine. Not careful in one place.

But Chang Xiaoqing treated him like that, but he just said it was normal.Looking back on those years now, the scene in my mind is blurred.

No matter what entanglement and pain Chang Xiaoqing had back then, Lin Mao never really cared about it.

Here Lin Mao is still reminiscing about the past, while Xing Xinglin is still talking softly over there.

"For some reason, some changes have been delayed until now. For example, when the chrysalis matures and enters the prime of life, their hair will change from black to white—" Xing Xinglin grabbed a handful of Chang Xiaoqing's long hair. The leaden gray hair stood out against the aged fingers.

"After the hair turns gray, it will fall off, and the hair on other parts of his body will also fall off like hair, so as to prepare for the next mating. But Chang Shaoxia's current situation is a bit special..."

As Xing Xinglin spoke, the expression on his face became more and more confused.

"After all, the pupa body is a kind of voodoo, so when you are young, your temper will become more violent and bloodthirsty, and sometimes you can't even control your emotions to kill with your bare hands. Dare to ask Lin Guzhu, have you noticed? Are there any changes in Chang Shaoxia?"

Hearing Xing Xinglin's question, Lin Mao couldn't help but smile wryly after being slightly taken aback, feeling sour in his heart.

"I didn't notice, I treated him... I didn't pay too much attention to it."

Lin Mao put his hand on Chang Xiaoqing's hair without realizing it, feeling a little sour in his heart.

Lin Mao, Lin Mao, you said that your favorite apprentice is Chang Xiaoqing, but you don't even know what changes have happened to him, and you don't care at all——There seems to be a voice in your heart saying this to him explain.

Xing Xinglin didn't care much about Lin Mao's answer.

He pondered for a moment, then continued to speak: "Guzhu Lin wants to know that Chang Shaoxia lost his mind, but the old man has a guess in his mind, but..."

"You say so."

Lin Mao said.

"Chang Shaoxia's body, I'm afraid he has taken all kinds of elixirs since he was a child so that people don't know what's wrong with him, so layers of erysipelas have accumulated in his body, and he may have practiced some special skills afterwards, Exercise your body and mind, and restrain the characteristics of the Gu insects in the meat pupae, so that you can live in peace with Lin Guzhu. However, the erysipelas and exercises are things that violate the nature of the Gu. If Chang Shaoxia is in good health, he will It can be suppressed, but once he is seriously injured and on the verge of death, he will eat back together—if his mind is still there, he may immediately go crazy and collapse due to the pain."

"You mean..."

"In order to protect myself from death, I can only disperse my sanity first and become an ignorant Gu."

Xing Xinglin answered.

Lin Mao was silent.

After a long time, he spoke——

"Doctor Xing, why are you so familiar with things like meat pupae?"

This person talked about the many characteristics of the meat pupa, and he could be called a treasure, far more clear than Lin Mao, a person in Wangyou Valley.

"I once heard that Xing Xinglin, the lunatic doctor of Yungu, became crazy and acted perversely because something was committed by Lingkong Temple. But now I see you, it seems that you are interested in Lingkong Temple's Wangyou Valley. Very clear."

Lin Mao said quietly.

Xing Xinglin lowered his eyes and gave a faint wry smile.

"Master Lin, have you forgotten what I said earlier? Among the people who are looking for the way of longevity, there is also Lingkong Temple—the world said that I was crazy because of Lingkong Temple, but it was not wrong..."

To be honest, the accident between Xing Xinglin and Lingkong Temple back then was really a disaster without reason.

At that time, Xing Xinglin had already created his own fame in the Jianghu, and married his childhood sweetheart who had long been sympathetic to him and made a vow of eternal love. Within half a year, his wife was pregnant. Seeing that life is a beautiful time However, when he came home from a doctor's visit on a rainy night, he was trapped in a foot shop in a remote countryside due to heavy rain.

There, he met an old monk who seemed to have practiced profoundly and had a compassionate face.

With a plate of dried tea and a pot of turbid wine, the two of them talked about birth, old age, sickness and death in this world, reincarnation of the eight sufferings... and immortality in the torrential rain.

Xing Xinglin got drunk and drunk, and the more he talked with the monk, the more speculative he became. He had a long talk, pouring out some of his thoughts on immortality.He originally thought that this night was just a chance encounter with his confidant, but he didn't know that this night was actually the beginning of a lifetime of misery.

The monk found Xing Xinglin's home the next day, smiled and said Buddha, and then asked Xing Xinglin to go to an unknown place with him to study the way of longevity.With Xing Xinglin's beautiful wife in his arms, a famous doctor and famous doctors, and no shortage of rich and beautiful women, how could he agree to this monk's inexplicable request.

The result was such a refusal, and the monk still had that compassionate smile, and lightly patted his wife's head...

"...Then, in front of me, he killed my parents, brothers, and [-] servants in the family. While killing, he asked me with a smile, 'Benefactor, are you going or not'. I thought to myself Said 'I'm going, of course I'm going', but my lips were stiff and I couldn't utter a word."

When Xing Xinglin said this, his face was still calm, but Lin Mao felt chills all over his body.

"The monk thinks he is from Lingkong Temple."

Lin Mao couldn't help but look up at the beam, Jia Ruo was sitting on top of it, quietly looking at the two people under the beam.
