Chapter 957: The Original Intention Is Still There

In the hall.

A lantern shines alone, and the light and shadow are dim.

A scrawny old man sat on a bamboo chair with a bamboo basket beside him.

A kingfisher stood on the old man's shoulder, preening its feathers with its beak.

"Wang Chonglu, I have met the senior."

When he saw the old man for the first time, Wang Chonglu looked solemn and bowed his head.

Call the watchman!

An old antique who has lived for an unknown number of years can even be called the oldest person on the sea of ​​suffering!

"No need to be formal, sit down."

The old man raised his hand and pointed to the seat next to him.

Wang Chonglu nodded and was about to take a seat when he saw Su Yi coming to the bamboo basket beside the old man, squatting down and looking into the bamboo basket.

Wang Chonglu was stunned.

But seeing that the clock watcher didn't object, he finally suppressed his surprise and sat silently on a seat on one side.

"Why is the 'Downfall Bell' missing?"

Su Yi asked without raising his head.

This seemingly quaint and ordinary bamboo basket actually contains something else, filled with treasures that the watchman has collected over the past years.

"When Cui Longxiang came, he borrowed this treasure."

The old man explained softly, his voice dry and old.

"I see."

Su Yi stood up, sat on an empty seat, looked around, and said with emotion, "This place is the same as the blacksmith shop of the night watchman. Nothing has changed. For a moment, I thought I was back to the past. .”

Hearing this, Wang Chonglu almost laughed.

A boy of seventeen or eighteen years old laments that as time goes by, things and people have changed, and he cannot help but feel out of place.

But immediately, Wang Chonglu was stunned. According to what Su Yi meant, he had actually gone to find the night watchman in Tianxue City before?

The old man looked at Su Yi with a hint of smile and said, "The older a person gets, the easier it is to miss the past and the less willing to change anything, what do you think?"

Su Yi laughed and said: "This is just the self-consolation of the frustrated. It doesn't matter how long it takes to pursue the great road. The stronger the Taoist heart, the more eager it is for a word of change. If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful. This is how it should be."

The old man was stunned, his eyes were gentle and he said: "Has it changed? But in my eyes, your state of mind is still as sharp as the edge of your sword, and there has never been any change."

Su Yi smiled and said: "The original intention is still there, and I can cope with the ever-changing changes as I please."

The old man also smiled.

The guy in front of me is indeed the same person he was back then.

"Let's talk about your business first."

Su Yi looked at Wang Chonglu.

The old man thought thoughtfully, "He doesn't know your identity?"

Su Yi said: "Not everyone in this world is like you and the night watchman, who have a pair of eyes that can see into the world, people, gods and ghosts."

The old man smiled, looked at Wang Chonglu, and said, "What is Brother Wang doing here?"

Wang Chonglu took a deep breath and said: "Reporting to senior, I just want to use your power to tell Mad Sword Mingzun Liu Changsheng that in the recent period, the goalkeeper on the other side has launched a killing spree against him!"

The old man was startled and said: "It turns out that you are here because of Liu Changsheng's affairs. I already know it. Is there anything else?"

Wang Chonglu hesitated for a while and said: "If possible, I would also like to ask my senior for advice, this fellow Taoist Su Yi... Well, who is this person?"

The old man yelled and pointed outside the main hall, "You can leave now."

Wang Chonglu: "???"

Full of confusion, he finally stood up and turned towards the outside.

Kingfisher seemed to sympathize with Wang Chonglu and couldn't help but explain: "What my master means is that you, Thunder Flame Demon Lord, can be regarded as an older figure in the sea of ​​suffering, but you ask such childish questions. This only proves that you have too much eyesight." Too bad, if you stay here any longer, I’m afraid it will be even more embarrassing.”

"this……"

Wang Chonglu felt like he was struck by lightning.

The corners of his lips trembled slightly, and he walked away quickly, filled with shame.

When he saw Wang Chonglu walking out of the hall, Pluto was slightly surprised. Why did this guy look so angry?

But Hades didn't ask any further questions.

Wang Chonglu hesitated in the courtyard for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and stayed.

He didn't know how many times his dignity had been struck, not to mention how many times he had been aggrieved. If he didn't figure out Su Yi's origins, he really wouldn't be willing to accept it!

…

Time passes by.

Hades had been waiting in the courtyard.

On the treetop, the orange cat was lying there lazily. When his eyes occasionally looked at Pluto, he could not help but shed a lustful luster.

Pluto had long noticed that something was wrong with the orange cat's eyes. The cat seemed to regard him as a delicious prey.

But she couldn't be bothered.

On the contrary, she was extremely curious about what Su Yi and the watchman had talked about.

Wang Chonglu has calmed down.

He carefully reviewed every bit of his acquaintance with Su Yi, and there was a vague suspicion in his mind.

Although this speculation made him feel incredible, he felt that this might be the only reasonable answer!

for a long time.

Su Yi's figure came out.

Above the treetops, the orange cat subconsciously curled up its chubby body, alert.

Pluto joked leisurely: "It seems that fellow Taoist must have discussed many earth-shattering matters with the watchman."

Su Yi smiled, and then he looked at Wang Chonglu with some surprise, "I thought you had left."

Wang Chonglu's eyes were subtle, and he suddenly smiled proudly and said: "Su Yi, I have probably guessed your origin."

Su Yi snorted and said, "Don't you think that I am a descendant of Su Xuanjun?"

Wang Chonglu: "???"

"Isn't it?" He couldn't help but ask.

Su Yi smiled.

Hades smiled.

The orange cat in the tree also smiled.

For a moment, Wang Chonglu felt the omnipresent malice again, and felt uneasy all over his body.

Su Yi looked at Wang Chonglu with some pity and said, "No need to guess, I am Su Xuanjun."

Wang Chonglu's body suddenly froze.

Su Xuanjun! ! ?

This name seems to have a strange magic power, making this courtyard very quiet.

Wang Chonglu raised his head with difficulty and looked at the young man not far away who was wearing a green robe and standing with his hands behind his back, with a trace of pity on his face, and his expression suddenly changed.

After a while, he said with anger on his face: "Boy, are you insulting my wisdom? This is simply too much! Sword Master Xuanjun passed away five hundred years ago, and your bone age is only eighteen years old at most! Even if there is reincarnation in this world, how could Sword Master Xuanjun be only eighteen years old?"

He seemed to want to vent the long-suppressed frustration in his heart, spitting, "It is true that I have seen that your origin is extremely transcendent, but if you want to pretend to be the master of Xuanjun Sword, you are not qualified!"

Su Yi: "..."

Hades: "..."

The orange cat covered his eyes with his paws, as if he couldn't bear to see it.

"Why don't you speak?"

Wang Chonglu finally felt a lot more comfortable.

Su Yi touched his nose, he really had nothing to say.

"Let's go and find a place to chat."

He looked towards Hades.

Pluto stood up gracefully, smiled and said: "I have been waiting for a long time."

The two of them immediately headed out to the courtyard.

Wang Chonglu couldn't help but chase after him and said, "What about me?"

Su Yi was startled and said, "It's none of your business. You can go wherever you like."

Wang Chonglu: "..."

He was so angry that he almost yelled. This kid is too heartless. After all, they met each other and the matter was resolved. Why don't you treat yourself to a drink?

But looking at Pluto next to Su Yi, Wang Chonglu could only force a smile and said: "That's fine, that's fine."

"correct."

Su Yi suddenly remembered something and said, "Don't you want to repay Liu Changsheng's kindness?"

Wang Chonglu looked solemn and said: "Not bad!"

Su Yi suggested: "Then you have to seize the time to recuperate. Liu Changsheng is now in the City of Eternal Night, but his situation is very bad. I think you can contact Zhan Beiqi and work together. Help Liu Changsheng tide over the difficulties together."

With that said, Su Yi turned around and left.

Hades followed.

"Liu Changsheng's situation is very bad..."

Wang Chonglu's eyes flickered.

After a while, Wang Chonglu also left the courtyard.

"Kaiyang, the master has asked you to go to the 'dark market' later."

A kingfisher flew out and looked up at the orange cat on the treetop. "If you encounter the Three Life Wheel Stones, take them all back."

The orange cat's blue eyes narrowed slightly, and he said feebly: "When will the master want it?"

Kingfisher explained: "It's not the master who wants it, it's Mr. Su."

The orange cat suddenly became furious, stood up suddenly, and cursed: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

"Kaiyang, the master said, you have to pay for taking things, and you are not allowed to take them by force."

Kingfisher reminded quickly.

"Well, I believe those profiteers in the dark market will be happy to give it to me."

The orange cat's voice was still echoing, but its plump figure had disappeared.

Kingfisher was startled and sighed softly.

Kaiyang was not afraid of anything and dared to talk back to the master, but he was scared to death when he saw Mr. Su.

However, when he thought of the lessons Kaiyang suffered back then, Kingfisher was also shocked.

…

Tianyin Tower.

The tallest restaurant in the City of Eternal Night, standing on the top floor, overlooking most of the City of Eternal Night dotted with lights.

Pluto was sitting leisurely in a chair, with his straight jade legs folded over each other, and a smooth and shining snow-white calf exposed under the ink skirt.

A gust of wind blew, causing her loose long blue hair to flutter in the wind, adding a variety of charm.

"We don't need to test it. We can just open the skylight and speak frankly."

Su Yi sat on one side and looked at Hades.

"good."

Pluto nodded slightly and agreed with a smile.

Su Yi gently placed one hand on the desk in front of him, tapped his knuckles on the table, and said, "I want to know why the people from Jiutian Pavilion appeared on the sea of ​​suffering."

Pluto looked like he had expected you to ask this question, and said with a smile: "To show my sincerity, I can tell you the answer to this question directly, but if you want to know anything next, you have to use what you have. in exchange for their secrets.”

"Can."

Su Yi nodded.

Pluto turned his palm, and a pot of wine and two wine glasses appeared out of thin air.

While pouring wine, she said: "The purpose of Jiutian Pavilion's strong men coming to the Sea of ​​​​Bitterness this time is related to exploring the secret of reincarnation."

Hearing this, Su Yi was not surprised, because Mo Chuan, the fifth torturer who appeared in the City of Wasted Death, also wanted to explore the secret of reincarnation.

However, Pluto's next words made Su Yi's eyes freeze.

"They have found out that there are suspected clues related to reincarnation hidden in the underworld of the Burial Path, which has attracted the attention of the world recently!"

Pluto's charming eyes stared into Su Yi's eyes, and his soft voice contained a hint of unique magnetism, "Fellow Taoist has already mastered the secret of reincarnation. Do you think the information they have found out is true or false?"
