Please give me a chance to be a straight man

The Ghost Corpse Venerable looked at Shen Xu for a moment, and then said, "You just got your life back, and you dare to talk to me, a lifesaver, like that. Do you want me to send you to the gate of hell again?"

Shen Xu quickly waved his hand, "Senior, you misunderstood, you are my savior, how dare I make a mistake. Moreover, you also said before that I am in a dangerous and embarrassing situation. If you save my life, it is for murder and revenge. Yes, then you might as well take my life back, the end is death anyway."

Seeing Shen Xu's serious face, Venerable Ghost Corpse did not mean to be joking at all, so he was silent for a moment, and then said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if I tell you. The purpose of this old man's saving you is actually to find someone."

"Find someone?"

Venerable Ghost Corpse nodded, "Have you ever heard of a man named Lan Huan?"

Shen Xu shook his head, "I've never heard of this name before. However, the former Demon Lord Lan Jin's surname is Lan. I don't know if it has something to do with the person you mentioned."

Venerable Ghost Corpse's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said hastily, "That Lan Jin might be Lan Huan's descendant. Tell me where he is now?"

"If you're talking about Lan Jin, it's said that he died more than ten years ago."

The Ghost Corpse Venerable was speechless for a moment, and after a while, he continued, "Why did he die?"

"More than ten years ago, when the righteous and the demon fought, the demon cultivator suffered a disastrous defeat, and Lan Jin died in the chaotic battle."

Venerable Ghost Corpse obviously didn't believe, "My fellow devil cultivator has always been brave and good at fighting. How could I lose to a group of weak, incompetent and hypocritical orthodox monks? Didn't you see that I was imprisoned for a hundred years and knew nothing about the world, so I deliberately deceived you?" mine?"

After finishing speaking, Venerable Ghost Corpse grabbed Shen Xu's neck and lifted him up without waiting for Shen Xu's explanation.Shen Xu hadn't recovered from his serious illness, and his body was already very weak. After being tossed about by Venerable Ghost Corpse, his face immediately turned pale again.

Venerable Ghost Corpse has always been uncomfortable with other people's weak appearance, so he threw Shen Xu to the ground.

Shen Xu was so choked by the fall that he put his hands on the ground and coughed violently twice.

Seeing that Shen Xu was coughing badly, Venerable Ghost Corpse threw him a pill.

Shen Xu looked at Venerable Ghost Corpse in surprise, "Senior, is this?"

"A nourishing high-level elixir! Give it to me, it keeps coughing and coughing, it's annoying. I really don't know if there is something wrong with my inheritance jade, I will find someone of your kind to be the successor."

Shen Xu looked at the elixir for a while, but couldn't smell any strange smell, so he threw it into his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Seeing that Shen Xu was still obedient, Venerable Ghost Corpse didn't say anything else.

Although Shen Xu has always been thick-skinned, the Venerable Ghost Corpse has saved his life, if he doesn't do something for him, Shen Xu's conscience will still be a little bit hard.So Shen Xu decided to inquire about the whereabouts of Lan Jin's descendants after he recovered from his injuries.

Then, by the way, find out who Wen Ran is.

Shen Xu stayed in Wuhuang Secret Realm for half a full month before his body recovered.Because he had something important to do, he didn't stay any longer, and immediately went to the Falling Star Pavilion with Venerable Ghost Corpse.

But because of the long distance, the teleportation array is too expensive to use once, so Shen Xu can only choose to fly with the sword.As a result, before reaching the foot of Cangya Mountain, Shen Xu and the others encountered some trouble.

In the evening of this day, Shen Xu and the others planned to spend the night in the wilderness because they had no hotel accommodation.Unexpectedly, not long after they rested, they heard a burst of fierce fighting.

Shen Xu's current status of meddling means courting death, so he resolutely chooses to pretend not to hear.Unexpectedly, Tianxuanzong and Jiang Xun were mentioned in these populations, and Shen Xu woke up in an instant.So he grabbed a handful of mud on the spot, smeared his face, and rushed into the battlefield.

Several demon cultivators had just defeated the orthodox monks, and they were about to win, but they unexpectedly killed Cheng Yaojin halfway.So suddenly panicked.However, relying on their numbers, they still rushed up without fear of death.

Shen Xu chased away a few demons who were not high enough.

Shen Xu aggressively chased them a long way, and saw that they had run away in fright, so he turned back again.

At this time, several orthodox monks were already breathing very weakly.Shen Xu carefully inspected their bodies, and found that these people were all poisoned by corpses, and there was no cure for them.

Seeing Shen Xu's silence, several orthodox monks knew that their lives were not long.So the older one among them took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shen Xu. "Fellow Daoist, I know that it is too much to ask you in this situation. But please read this letter to Sect Master Qi for the sake of fellowship, otherwise Yuzhou The city is in danger!"

To be honest, Shen Xu really didn't want to take on this job.After all, he can't protect himself now. If he goes to Tianxuanzong again, it will be tantamount to suicide.But the big men in front of them were about to die, and they hugged Shen Xu and cried again.So Shen Xu moved with compassion and nodded in agreement.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Shen Xu nodded, several righteous monks died.So Shen Xu had no choice but to bury them again, and after this, it was dawn.

Venerable Ghost Corpse also had enough rest at this time, and floated out from Shen Xu's inheritance jade.Seeing that he was in a wilderness and not Luoxing Pavilion, he turned around and asked Shen Xu why.

Shen Xu had no choice but to explain the matter in detail.Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he was scolded by Venerable Ghost Corpse, "I said, is there something wrong with your brain? If you are about to die, you agree. And that Tianxuanzong is not the first sect of the righteous way Why, why do you really want to die?"

"It's just a letter, and I don't have to deliver it myself."

So Shen Xu bribed a seemingly poor outer disciple of Tianxuanzong to pass the letter to Ye Chen.

It may be because of the demon cultivator's eyeliner in the orthodox sect before, the Tianxuan sect is very good at checking outsiders and unknown objects.So the outer disciple didn't deliver the letter.However, he brought back a message to Shen Xu.

"I heard from the deacon disciples of the inner sect that Senior Brother Ye Chen and Senior Brother Jiang Xun are not in the sect, and they seem to have some mission to perform, so they are away."

Shen Xu frowned, "Going away? Do you know where they went?"

"It seems to be Yuzhou City. Yes, that's right, it is Yuzhou City. That fellow Taoist, the spirit stone you gave me..."

Before the outer disciple could finish his sentence, Shen Xu had disappeared.

As soon as Shen Xu left the boundary of Tianxuanzong, he flew with the spirit sword on his body, ready to go to Yuzhou City.

Along the way, Venerable Ghost Corpse was talking about how stupid Shen Xu was, always asking for his own death.Shen Xuquan pretended not to hear, and continued on his way.So finally arrived in Yuzhou City three days later.

But when they arrived in Yuzhou City, they found that it was very prosperous and peaceful, and there was no trace of the magic cultivator's troubles at all.

However, in view of his previous experience in Luoyun Sect, Shen Xu decided to observe the situation first, so as not to be tricked again.

So he chose an inn to live in first.

Early the next morning, Shen Xu was still asleep when he was suddenly awakened by the sound of firecrackers on the street outside.

Shen Xu saw that unless it was a dead person, no one would be able to continue to sleep, so he called Xiao Er to order a few dishes.

While Shen Xu was spending his breakfast, he saw a line of send-off teams passing by the door of the inn beating gongs and drums.He was not interested in this at first, after all, weddings and funerals are commonplace, nothing unusual.

But when he inadvertently glanced at the face of the 'bride' sitting in the sedan chair, Shen Xu was not calm.

Ye Chen, don't tell me, you are actually a master of women's clothing!
