Lock text system: The hero please respect yourself

The surroundings are black, not the emptiness of blackness at night, but a kind of oppressive, oppressive, oppressive black.And Lan Zhi was sure that he was lying down.

There seemed to be something in his mouth, Lan Zhi took it out and held it in his hand.

With the smell of wood and earth in his nostrils, coupled with the small confined space around him, Lan Zhi felt that he might be lying in a coffin now.

Wasn't he left to rot in the back mountain? Why was he suddenly buried in the soil again?

Of course, he didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly transported the spiritual energy from his body, and it was unimpeded, and he had indeed recovered to his original cultivation level.

Lan Zhi lifted his hand, and there was a muffled sound of breaking in the soil. After half a stick of incense, he was already standing under the clear sky, slapping the soil on his body.

This is a very quiet and beautiful place.

He had been dead for almost two months, and it was Qingming now.There is a deep and shallow green in the mountains, and the morning mist floats on the mountainside. Every time you step on it, new shoots can emerge under your feet.The curved stream is also green, with pink peach petals floating on the water.

This is indeed a good place to bury the dead. It is so secluded that no one will find it.

Lan Zhi looked down at the thing that came out of his mouth.It was a square piece of jade, about half the length of a finger, and the jade was white and translucent.If he remembers correctly, this kind of jade is called longevity jade, which is specially stuffed in the mouth of the dead, so that the body will not rot for decades.

The more transparent the jade color, the rarer it is, and the longer the corpse can be preserved.This piece of jade is already translucent, which is considered rare.But longevity jade is only effective when the body is in good condition. Once it starts to rot, there is no way to restore it to its original state.

He thought his body had rotted and needed a system reset to return to its original state, but now it seemed a little strange.Who buried him here, Jian Qiang, or someone else?

Lan Zhi walked dozens of steps along the stream, and stood in front of a flat ground facing the mountain, meditating silently.

What should I do next?

The jade token was taken away by Jian Qiang as early as in the cave. Before his death, Lan Zhi often looked through the jade token in his hand. Now Jian Qiang has gradually developed this habit, but he can’t see anything, he just touches the jade token. , I don't know what I'm thinking.

So Lan Zhi wasn't sure where he was or what he was doing.

In the few days before leaving, the system was not updated frequently, but Jian Qiang wanted to restore his cultivation, so he should still be practicing in the Tomb of Morning Mist.If Lan Zhi went to him rashly, there would be no foreshadowing at all, and he would not be able to explain clearly.At least he has to find a plausible excuse to come back from the dead, right?

He pondered for a moment, but instead of covering his own grave, he left an empty coffin hanging in the sun, making it look like it had been planed from a distance.The clothes on his body were just his usual blue shirt, without blood stains, but clean.Lan Zhi walked out of the valley without any hesitation, without hiding his whereabouts, and headed all the way to Youlong Town at the foot of the Northbound Mountain Range.

This valley is extremely far away from the northbound mountain range, and Lan Zhi traveled two days to reach it.When he came to the town, two old men in their sixties and seventies who were basking in the sun suddenly became dumb and looked at him without daring to move.One of them said with a pale face, "Didn't I hear that the man in blue became a demon after cultivating and eating people everywhere, and was killed by the Beixing Xian family? Why is he alive again?"

The other was about to stand up in a panic, but was held tightly by the first one.He said: "I don't remember? Didn't he say last time that no one is allowed to run away when he sees him, and he should pretend he didn't see anything?"

The other was trembling all over: "Then let's continue chatting, don't look at him, don't look at him."

The two of them huddled their heads and chatted about the housework, but the children who were playing next to them rushed in yelling: "Come out and see, the one in blue is alive again!"

The townspeople of Youlong Town have always been terribly afraid of Lan Zhi. Hearing the words, they seem to have swallowed raw fish. They dare not talk or hide. They stand stiffly at the door, who should sweep the floor and sell things Selling things, those who should shout and beat people dare not lower their voices.

Lan Zhi went straight to the inn, the shopkeeper saw that his legs were limp, and thought to himself, isn't this man dead?At that time, You Longzhen rushed to tell each other, he was very happy, how could he come back to life after death?The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face: "So it's Brother Lan, long time no see. Now that you're here, the shop is full of splendor."

Lan Zhi looked at him coldly, and said in a low voice, "There's so much noise, you can't be clean."

The shopkeeper was dumbfounded.The year before last, Lan Zhi thought the townspeople of Youlong Town were noisy, and the townspeople hid when they saw him. Last year, he was unhappy and changed his mind, saying that he would not hide, and let everyone do what they should.Now everyone is not hiding, but he thinks he is noisy, why is this person so difficult to serve?

The shopkeeper felt a little bitter: "What does Brother Lan mean?"

Lan Zhi stared at him coldly, and the shopkeeper said in a panic, "When Brother Lan comes again from now on, I'll let everyone hide again, okay?"

Lan Zhi went upstairs without saying a word, and the shopkeeper whispered to the staff: "Come on, spread the word, Brother Lan is not dead at all, stop talking nonsense. He will come to Youlong Town in the future, and everyone will hide in the house." Don't disturb his cleanliness!"

However, in the past three days, rumors spread everywhere in the towns near the Northbound Mountain Range that the Northbound faction surnamed Lan came back to life and stayed in Youlong Town for one night, threatening to eat people everywhere. .

This is just echoing what others say, no one of the disciples traveling north has seen his real person, so it's hard to draw a conclusion, maybe it's not because someone pretended to be Lan Zhi and made trouble.Elder Wan felt that something was wrong, so he sent Rong Yunxiang, Qi Muran and others to take their disciples down the mountain to investigate, but they didn't find any clues.Lan stopped overnight and then disappeared without a trace.

During the court meeting that morning, Elder Song said: "At that time, Lan Zhi was out of breath. We tried the soul-dividing needle on the corpse, and indeed even the soul spirit disappeared without a trace. Someone must have caused trouble in the dark. I don't know what the purpose is."

Elder Wan frowned and said, "The head of the sect is currently in retreat these days, so these things shouldn't bother him. I only regret that I didn't destroy the spiritual root of that surnamed Jane. I'm afraid he did it, so it's nothing to be afraid of."

Rong Yunxiang, Qi Muran, Bai Fengyang and Su Chu all bowed their heads and remained silent.

Elder Wan said again: "Is there anything else?"

Rong Yun thought: "I heard that a few days ago, the residences of two celestial-level casual practitioners were reduced to ashes at night. I don't know what kind of magic was used. It looked like fire but not fire, like smoke but not smoke, and people disappeared without a trace. Could it have something to do with the man in blue who suddenly appeared?"

Elder Song said: "Which two casual cultivators?"

Qi Muran said: "Yashan Layman and Leisurely Loose People."

Elder Wan snorted lightly, Elder Song frowned slightly, and both of them stroked their beards without speaking.Rong Yun couldn't bear it after all, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Seeing that Elder Wan and Elder Song had no intention of speaking, Qi Muran replied: "Both of them have a bad reputation. It is said that laymen in Yashan love to plunder women from good families, and many innocent people died under them in vain. Leisurely people will do anything for their cultivation. They killed people and seized treasures with their hands, and their hands were stained with a lot of blood. It's just that these are all rumors, there is no real evidence, and no one will investigate."

Elder Wan was thoughtful: "Feng Yang, you've been a little reticent recently, what's going on?"

Bai Fengyang was dressed in white, touched a space ring on his little finger, and said in a low voice: "It's nothing, now we can only sweep the snow in front of the door, how can we care about others' roofs? As long as it doesn't threaten my northbound disciples, it's not good Take too much."

Elder Wan said: "Although the words are good, it's just that this person can turn their residence into ashes, but it's a bit weird. Recently, on my mother's day, I need to travel far away, and I happened to investigate along the way. The four of you should do your best to assist Elder Song, wait for me to come back."

Several people bowed their heads and agreed, Elder Wan arranged things, and set off with a few disciples the next morning.

Layman Yashan's cave is located in the deep mountains of the Northbound Mountain Range, three hundred miles away. It was originally hidden between the waterfalls with magical barriers, but it has been completely destroyed at this time.The water flow of the waterfall is fast, flying straight down. It was leaning on the cliff of several tens of feet, but at this time, a large black hole several feet wide was exposed on the rock. It was dark and deep, and it was bottomless.

This black cave was originally the residence of Yashan Layman.

Elder Wan asked his disciples to wait under the waterfall, and flew to the entrance of the cave alone.He stroked his beard and lowered his head to caress the rock, and said strangely in his heart: It was indeed not burned by a real fire, and there was no trace of soot left, as if it had turned into green smoke out of thin air.What kind of technique is this, so powerful?

After walking a few steps inside, suddenly, I heard the shouts of the disciples from the bottom of the mountain, and panicked, as if something serious had happened.

Wan Chengbin immediately jumped down from the entrance of the cave, only to see several disciples in disarray, holding their swords nervously, sweating profusely, pointing the sword point at the man in blue: "Elder, this, this is Senior Brother Lan!"

This man's thin lips are soaked in ice, his body is like a sharp sword, and his eyes are handsome and mighty. Even if he just stands here, it is enough to make the surrounding scenery pale. Who is it if it is not Lan Zhi?His hands were empty, and he didn't intend to fight the disciples at all. His eyes fell on Elder Wan, and he seemed to have plans.

This person's cultivation level is above and below the moon stage, but no trace of illusion can be seen no matter what, Wan Chengbin has countless doubts in his heart, and said coldly: "Who are you? Why do you pretend to be my traitor going north?"

Lan Zhi said concisely: "Let them all leave, I want to talk to you in detail."

These disciples are no more than the upper and lower levels of the sky, and when the two of them disagree with each other and fight, they will be courting death if they stay here, and they will be useless at all.Wan Chengbin's cultivation level is comparable to Chi Su's, so of course there is nothing to be afraid of, he waved to his disciples and said, "Go and wait for me outside the mountain."

The disciples knew that it was useless for them to stay, so they put away their swords and left quickly.

Lan Zhi said slowly: "Elder Wan, I came to you this time to ask you to do me a favor."

Wan Chengbin was angry and said with a sneer, "I'm old and incompetent, I don't know what I can do to help you? You don't even show your real body, it seems that you lack sincerity?"

Lan Zhi didn't have time to talk too much nonsense with him, so he cut to the chase: "I am resurrected from the dead, not an illusion, this is my real body. Elder Wan thinks too much, don't you remember to have a heart-to-heart talk with me, saying that I will Is it the night that will become a big weapon?"

That was the night when Bai Fengyang was framed, Elder Wan hoped that Lan Zhi would take over as Bai Fengyang's disciple, he was afraid that Lan Zhi would feel unhappy, so he said many good things to him.These words should not have been spread, how did the man in blue know?

Rather than believe that he came back from the dead, Wan Chengbin would rather he was a fake.Hearing Lan Zhi talk about that night, Wan Chengbin's expression also changed: "How do you know?"

Lan Zhi said: "The first time Elder Wan had a heart-to-heart talk with me last year was on the sixth day of February, discussing the acceptance of disciples in Kaishan. The second time was on September [-]th, discussing the fate of Su Chu and Li You after they were promoted. The third time was this year On the eighth day of the first lunar month, it is about taking over Bai Fengyang's disciple. Elder Wan needs me to say it word for word?"

Wan Chengbin looked him up and down. The person in front of him had no flaws from the beginning to the end. His every move, voice and expression were the same as before. No matter what, he couldn't see any clues.Resurrection from the dead is unheard of, even though he has seen a lot of strong winds and waves, his heartbeat is also a little faster at this moment, and he said coldly: "How did you come back to life?"

Lan Zhi sneered: "Elder Wan, don't worry about how I survived. Why don't you pay homage to your deceased mother first, and then come here to find me and talk about how you can help me."

Wan Chengbin was furious: "What did you do?"

Lan Zhi headed towards the big black hole on the cliff, and said slowly, "Elder Wan, do you know why this Yashan layman likes to rob girls?"

Wan Chengbin looked at each other coldly.

Lan Zhi continued to speak slowly, "It is said that this Yashan layman was originally a well-behaved child. When he was young, his parents died and he lived with his aunt. After her husband died, only one biological child was left, but she still regarded him as her own. If his own child has one, he will also have a share. The three of them collected firewood and planted the land, and they lived a very happy life. Unfortunately, one year the plague was rampant and there was famine everywhere. Guess what happened to Elder Wan?"

Wan Chengbin gritted his teeth: "What did you do?"

Lan Zhi said: "The family is at the end of the road, my aunt is crying and tied up the ten-year-old Yashan Layman, and wants to kill him to feed her children. Therefore, after the Yashan Layman kidnapped the girl, it was not as you imagined. Do erotic things. He just doesn't understand why my aunt treats him so well, why boil him into meat soup?"

Lan Zhi looked at him: "So, no matter how deep your feelings for others are, your own flesh and blood are the most important."

Wan Chengbin was extremely impatient at this moment, turned his right hand, and a thin blade-like flying knife appeared in his palm, and asked, "What did you do?"

Lan Zhi lowered his head slightly: "Elder Wan had six sons, two of whom died early, and the sixth son Xun Ye is my favorite. He is locked up in a hidden place by me now, and someone takes good care of him. He eats and wears according to his wishes." It's just that there is a dagger hanging above his head, which is controlled by my aura. Once the aura disappears, the dagger will fall. If I die, he will die; if I am unhappy, he will die too."

Wan Chengbin felt his eyes darken, and he said angrily: "How innocent he is, you have such a vicious heart, what are you doing to involve him!"

Lan Zhi looked at him motionlessly: "Jian Qiang is so innocent. You abolished your cultivation and kicked you out of the sect. I am so innocent. You forced me to test needles and tortured to death. As the first person under the head of Beixing Elder, the investigation is sloppy, and human life is reckless. If Xun Ye hadn't had an accident, I'm afraid you wouldn't know what personal pain is."

Wan Chengbin only felt heartbroken, and said coldly: "How do I know if you are lying to me?"

"Go home and have a look, and come find me again. I'll wait for you here. If you're not afraid of something happening to Xun Ye, you can kill me right now."

Wan Chengbin closed his eyes, scolded "you bastard", turned around and drove away without thinking about what to say to him.

Lan Zhi slowly sat down in front of the waterfall, stroking a black rock in his hand, feeling uneasy.Jian Qiang is about to have an accident, he must act quickly.
