[Transmigration Book] The protagonist has changed!

Even if Du Lingling really couldn't hold on any longer, he should give it a go after all.

After finally staying up until the dead of night, Pei Nan sneaked out of the room holding his breath, looked around for no one, and prepared to go to the basement where Du Lingling was.

Recently, I don't know what kind of madness Si Yao has gone into. He has been running out frequently for several days, and he is never followed by anyone around him, and he doesn't know what he is going to do.

However, there is a great advantage of not having to follow Si Yao, that is, Pei Nan suddenly has more free time.

Only after living here for a period of time, did Pei Nan gradually feel the biggest difference between the demon cultivator and the Taoist cultivator. The human relationship in the "Holy Religion" is weak, and the relationship is even more rusty and indifferent. No wonder that person came out of nowhere After Yaosi was killed by Si Yao, the Demon Cultivator Realm never panicked for a moment.

Now there are only three guardians left by Si Yao's side, and looking at Si Yao's performance, it seems that he has no intention of choosing another one to make up two pairs. something.

Oh, and another protector is called Sisen.

Also, the name of Pei Nan's body is Nanmu.

Through the introduction of the name, Pei Nan actually felt Si Yao's love for Qing Chui.

This perfunctory name can only be haha.

Si Yao was not teaching today, and Bei Lin and Xi Sen hadn't seen anyone for a day. Pei Nan found an excuse to transfer the four demon cultivators who guarded the room where Du Lingling used to be. He looked at the time and saw that it was dead of night.

Although his spiritual power was not as good as Si Yao's, he was on the same level as Bei Lin and Xi Sen. Pei Nan looked at the steps in front of him, hesitated, and took two steps forward.

Si Yao's guarding of Du Lingling was actually very relaxed, because Du Yixiu had already been imprisoned in the Xuanyun sect, without the power to be the master, let alone the ability to save his only daughter; Nan, I don't know how many years he has been dead.

Pei Nan suddenly remembered that when he was chatting with the system that day, the system told him that Bai Feng sealed his former body with a secret method, which is said to preserve immortality for a hundred years.

Probably because the underground passage was too gloomy and cold, thinking about it, Pei Nan shivered.

After walking for a while, Pei Nan finally came to the door wall he had seen before. It was still the same door lock, and it seemed that it had never been opened since he left.

Pei Nan tried the seal on the door, and found that it was a very simple seal. This seal was the basic tutorial for the entry into the "Holy Church". Pei Nan had seen the practice of new disciples, so this seal looked like The guard Moxiu did it himself.

Pei Nan made a heart formula, broke the seal on the door, then pushed the door and walked in, stood inside the door and re-sealed it when he entered, and then walked over lightly.

The room was deep and dark, with only one candle burning a flame that was about to be extinguished.

Everything is very familiar.

It seems that such a long time has passed, only here still retains that miserable look.

Bypassing a curtain, Pei Nan saw the man lying on the bed again.

She seemed to be thinner than before. If she could still see a rough outline before, now she could barely see her human form.

Such a thin person was lying there, covered with a thick quilt, the color of the lower body sheets could not be seen clearly, there seemed to be bloodstains, urine stains, and some dirty brown marks on them, which could not be covered. clear.

Before I got close, I could smell a pungent stench emanating from there.

Like a mass of rotten meat.

The plain quilt on the bed was also dyed badly, and the cotton wadding was lumped together, slumped on her body like a mountain that couldn't be climbed or separated.

She was lying like that, the quilt did not cover her face, her gray hair was like withered grass, and she no longer had the luster of a young girl, but her facial features were still somewhat bright, but her complexion was pale, The eyes are closed, and even the lips are blue.

Looking at it from a distance, it is impossible to tell whether it is alive or dead, whether it is breathing or not.

Pei Nan stopped in his tracks.

He himself didn't know whether he was unwilling to take two steps forward because he was troubled by the stench, or because of an inexplicable emotion in his heart that made him no longer willing to take a closer look at Du Lingling lying on the bed.

Calculated according to time, Du Lingling should only be under thirty at this time, but he is already so old.

She married Si Yao at the age of 15, chose an inhumane person, and was forced to be imprisoned at the best age for another 15 years.

Pei Nan closed his eyes and called out in a low voice, "Du Lingling..."

His voice was not loud, and he was still some distance away from the bed, but after the sound, the person on the bed suddenly moved.

Du Lingling moved her fingers on the edge of the bed, her eyes closed slightly, as if they were opened a little, she tried her best to open her mouth, but she didn't say anything.

Pei Nan was stunned for a moment, and could no longer care about the hesitation just now. He took a step forward, walked to Du Lingling's side, and bent down: "Lingling, are you okay?"

After all, I thought it was absurd and funny, Du Lingling's current state, what else could be considered good.

But Du Lingling on the bed tried to open her eyes when she heard this sentence. She shrunk her body so that all her parts were covered under the quilt, but she didn't know that the quilt was actually dirty and ugly.

Then Du Lingling tried to smile at Pei Nan: "Brother...Brother, I'm good."

She can no longer speak skillfully.

Du Lingling was imprisoned for 15 years, and no one communicated with her. Verbal conversations were full of torture and pain. What she lost was not only language, but probably more things. It's just that Pei Nan had seen not coming out.

Pei Nan just looked at Du Lingling like this, and couldn't say a word for a while.

He reached out to touch Du Lingling's white hair, but Du Lingling, who was already extremely weak on the bed, struggled violently and brushed it past Pei Nan's hand without letting him touch it.

Du Lingling smiled at Pei Nan again: "Brother...clean,...dirty."

She said, Brother, your hands are clean, but mine are dirty.

It had been a long time since Pei Nan felt sad because of others, but at this moment, he felt waves of pain coming from his heart.

He still reached out and touched Du Lingling's hair. This time Du Lingling didn't dodge it, so he stared at Pei Nan stupidly with wide-eyed eyes full of shy surprise and joy: "Hee...brother, really ……good."

Brother is so kind to me.

Pei Nan's movements came to a sudden stop, as if he had been hit hard on the head, which almost made him unable to stand still.

He trembled, turned his face away, and didn't speak for a while.

The basement where Du Lingling lived was very spacious and fully furnished. There was a dressing cabinet next to the bed. Although I don't know if it has been used for so many years, the things on it are very complete.

Pei Nan helped Du Lingling up, and took a comb from the dressing cabinet beside him to comb Du Lingling's hair.

Her hair seemed to have not been cut for a long time, and it was laid down long, but it was mottled and gray, without any sense of beauty.

Du Lingling seemed to know the filth and smell on her body, and always dodged to the side, but Pei Nan shouted: "Don't be afraid, Lingling."

Du Lingling really did not move obediently.

Pei Nan had never combed a woman's hair before, and he didn't know if he had done it too hard or too lightly. He asked Du Lingling several times, but Du Lingling never gave him a babble. answer.

After not dodging or dodging, Du Lingling grabbed his hand to play with, occasionally scratching here and there, but he was very obedient and never touched Pei Nan's hair that was combing.

She always listens to Pei Nan very much.

Although she can't understand it anymore.

In addition to being dry and messy, Du Lingling's hair was also covered with many inexplicable things, such as white spots of rice and steamed bun residue, sticky things, and it was not easy to comb at all.

Pei Nanjie was used to obsession, and had always been annoyed by this kind of thing. Although he sighed a little at this time, he was surprisingly patient.

Combing and combing, Du Lingling seemed to feel that there was nothing to play with, her neck was crooked as if she was going to fall asleep.

Pei Nan pursed his lips and said calmly: "Lingling, don't sleep."

Du Lingling opened his eyes wide again and sat up straighter than before.

After combing it a few more times, I heard Du Lingling's silly laughter: "...Brother, one, number one, I... good."

It's the first time that senior brother treats me so well.

Pei Nan paused for a moment with the hand holding the comb, and then combed the lock of hair down.

After a while, Du Lingling touched his face, feeling warm and cool, and said stupidly: "Hey...brother, it's raining."

Pei Nan's other hand quickly passed the corner of his eyes, and the hand holding the comb patted Du Lingling's head, and said gently: "Yes, it's raining."

No matter how hard Pei Nan tried, he still couldn't dress Du Lingling back to the appearance of a 15-year-old girl.

Even though the hair has been stretched, it is still gray and old, and the facial features are dull, without any vitality.

Du Lingling, however, seemed very happy. She tried her best to sit up from the bed, and the quilt slipped a little, revealing her underwear that had been dyed to the point where she couldn't see any color and her skeleton without any sense of flesh.

She hurriedly reached out to grab the fallen quilt, but the quilt still slipped down.

Pei Nan stood aside, lowered his eyes slightly, picked up the quilt, and covered Du Lingling again.

Du Lingling hurriedly covered her under the quilt, hid herself tightly, then touched the hair scattered on both sides with her bony hands, raised her eyes and looked at Pei Nan with a wooden smile: "Okay, look?"

Pei Nan nodded: "It's pretty."

Du Lingling looked at Pei Nan in a daze, she didn't seem to understand what Pei Nan meant, and she seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, her expression began to shake a little. She let go of her hair with both hands, and her tone was low. Going down, with a bit of cowardice and emaciation: "No,...forward, well, let's see."

Pei Nan shook his head, lowered his head and said seriously: "They all look good."

Du Lingling raised her head slightly, looked at Pei Nan timidly, then shrank back, grabbed her hair on both sides and stroked it again.

She was silent for a while, but her expression didn't seem to be as stiff and silly as before. Although she still looked a little numb, her eyes were a little more angry.

Pei Nan's heart sank, and he looked at Du Lingling carefully.

Du Lingling nestled in the quilt and was silent for a long time, then spoke in a low voice, the voice was different from the dumb feeling just now, a few years older, but still unable to speak clearly: "It's...brother."

She finally called Pei Nan her senior brother.

"I'm here." Pei Nan's answer was more like a sigh.

Unfortunately, he never heard Du Lingling's response again.

The colorless quilt on the bed finally slipped to the ground, revealing the woman on the bed who was so thin that there were only bones left. Apart from the thinness, her exposed wrists were full of scars, like the wounds left by bloodletting.

In fact, she no longer looked like a living person. After holding on for so long in vain, she was finally freed.

What did she want to say in the last sentence, no one in this world knows anymore.

Her lips were gray and her face was pale. Except that she was no longer breathing, Du Lingling was actually not much different from just now. When she fell on the bed that had trapped her for more than ten years, she didn't even make a sound. come out.

Du Lingling said that it was the first time he was so kind to her.

But Du Lingling looked like this today, and he, Pei Nan, also pushed hard from behind.

There is no medicine for regret in this world, and Pei Nan never thought that he would regret the decisions he made. In the fate of chance, he couldn't beat Shen Qingtang, and he was destined to be unable to take Du Lingling from the life that Du Yixiu had chosen for him. Pull it out.

What makes Pei Nan feel tormented is that he shouldn't get involved in it.

Pei Nan picked up the quilt and covered Du Lingling's body again.

It was a cold body that had no breath.

But covering it like this, there is no difference from when he came in just now.

The same silence, darkness, and stench.

Pei Nan didn't have the ability to control people's souls, and he didn't want to leave Du Lingling's lonely soul behind. After thinking for a while, he chanted a mantra to send Du Lingling on the road.

He turned away.

As soon as he took a step forward, he heard a voice coming from nowhere, with a piercing coolness and a sticky smile, reaching his ears: "Pei Xianjun has done so many touching things just now, why don't you?" This is leaving?"

Pei Nan stopped.

There was no expression on his face, but he was surprisingly calm, and it seemed that his breathing was not disturbed at all.

Standing on the same spot, Pei Nan paused for a moment, and then said calmly: "The Mozun has seen enough excitement, so just show up and see it."

With a loud laugh, the seal of the door was broken abruptly, and a person approached from outside the door.

That person is still dressed in bright red, which is extremely inconsistent with this underground yin room.

Si Yao raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "It's Xianjun Pei who can still be so calm after being found out that he has done something bad."

Pei Nan raised his eyebrows and looked up, his tone was calm: "When did you know?"

Si Yao stretched out a finger and shook it, then laughed again: "The first day."

"Oh?"

"Nanmu's character is stubborn and obstinate, and he loves you very much." Si Yao's eyes flashed with deep meaning, "Besides, Nanmu's body has never been injured."

Pei Nan nodded, without any embarrassment on his face, and said clearly: "So that's the case, the acting skills are not good, and the Demon Lord laughed."

Seeing Pei Nan being so shameless, Si Yao's tone froze for a moment, as if he didn't know what to say, and after a while he said: "Poor Shen Qingtang, he didn't even want his cultivation because of you, you are alive be free."

Pei Nan said politely, "It's okay."

Si Yao suddenly realized that he was already used to Pei Nan being respectful to him. Now that he peeled off Pei Nan's appearance and revealed his original appearance, it didn't seem like such a good thing. He raised his eyebrows and thought for a while: "Du Lingling finally died?"

Pei Nan paused, turned around and glanced at Du Lingling who was behind him, and said calmly, "Since you already know, why bother to ask."

Si Yao took a few steps closer to Pei Nan, and sneered: "Pei Xianjun is really brave. Not only did he die, he even gave away his soul. I have raised Du Lingling for so long, and when she is about to come in handy, she just happened to be dead."

Pei Nan's expression was flat, he took a step back, and his tone was indifferent and peaceful: "That's quite unfortunate."

Si Yao straightened up, stared at Pei Nan for a moment, raised his eyebrows, and lost the coldness in his eyes just now, as if he was watching with great interest.

Pei Nan let him watch, but didn't speak.He used to worry that Si Yao would do something if he knew his identity, but after Du Lingling's incident, he was no longer afraid that Si Yao would know his true identity.

Si Yao was able to do such a cruel thing to living souls, but he was the only one who kept Du Lingling alive for more than ten years. The logic behind it was nothing more than the word "benefit".

In the same way, Si Yao knew a lot about him, but he only revealed it today. This is also the reason.

And where does the profit come from?

The two stalemate for a while, and Si Yao raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Forget it, anyway, it doesn't matter if it's a living person or a corpse. Since Pei Xianjun has become the guardian of the deity recently, let's go with the deity to meet an old acquaintance tomorrow. .”

Si Yao really didn't continue to entangle in this matter, passed Pei Nan to look at Du Lingling who was lying on the bed without interest, gave a soft "hum" in his nose, turned around and walked out, and disappeared in the The end of the corridor.

Seeing that Si Yao didn't care, Pei Nan wanted to carry Du Lingling's body out to find a suitable place to bury him, but before he could find a suitable cover, he heard Moxiu coming in from the door saying to him: "Guardian Nan, Your Majesty Let me tell you, if you moved Du Lingling's body at this time, maybe Du Lingling wouldn't even be able to leave the whole body behind."

Pei Nan paused.

Si Yao is flamboyant and frivolous, but he rarely speaks falsehoods. Telling him this at this time is nothing more than threatening him not to take Du Lingling away.

Thinking about it carefully, Pei Nan suddenly recalled what Si Yao said before.

Something imminent?

What is imminent?

Pei Nan stood up straight and looked at the demon cultivator at the door. He was one of the demon cultivators who had been guarding Du Lingling's underground dark room. He was not surprised to see Pei Nan here.

I'm afraid that these demon cultivators who were so persuasive before left their posts. Maybe Si Yao had already explained it.

Pei Nan glanced at the demon cultivator, and asked in a cold voice, "So, what else did he say?"

The demon cultivator bowed and saluted, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, let me inform you that when you get up tomorrow morning, please wait in front of his house and go to the appointment together."

...waiting in front of the house.

Pei Nan twitched the corners of his mouth: "Who are you going to make an appointment with?"

The demon cultivator bent even deeper: "Your Majesty said, go to the appointment with the old friend."

== Originally, Pei Nan hoped to find out who he was going to see from this demon cultivator, but he didn't expect that this person seemed to know as much as he did, so he simply waved his hand and asked people to go back, and he followed suit Walked out of the underground dark room.

There is still a long distance from the darkroom to the ground, and there are steps one after another. Pei Nan walked very slowly.

When I got to the top, it happened to be 180 eighth steps.

Pulling off the roof, the sun shines from the top of the head, and shines from the hole exposed on the roof to the steps. It is a pity that the road is long, and the twilight finally disappears mottled on the winding steps.

I have never felt cold before, and I have not noticed the warmth of the sun.

Pei Nan raised his eyes and saw that the sun was shining brightly.

Just like the first time I saw Du Lingling, she laughed and ran towards me, her bright red skirt raised high with her steps, as bright and moving as the smile on the girl's face.
