After looking around at the surrounding scene several times, Duan Yunchang rubbed the space between his brows with some trouble.

"Where did this thing go?"

He took a few steps back in annoyance, and suddenly a hand stretched out from the Red River water and pulled him in unexpectedly.

The smell of blood poured into Duan Yunchang's mouth all of a sudden, he didn't have time to worry about his own life, he only felt nausea.

The hand fumbled around his body, from his neck to his chin, and then two fingers quickly inserted into his mouth when he opened his mouth.At this time, countless hands stretched out from the bloody water, coordinating with the movement of that hand, they firmly restrained Duan Yunchang.

Duan Yunchang struggled and the corners of his eyes began to turn rosy, filled with physiological tears.

The hand was stirring in his mouth, which made Duan Yunchang retch.

"what do you want?"

From nowhere came a silent male voice, and the owner of this voice seemed to be standing aside, watching his miserable state with nothing to do with himself.

Duan Yunchang didn't have time to think about anything, so he pulled out a charm from the pile of hands that were entangled with him, and stuck it towards the thing behind him.

In an instant, all those restraints were released, and he ran to the shore and vomited.

"Carrying vines."

As he spat, Duan Yunchang felt a pain in his chest, hot liquid rushed up his throat, and black blood spurted out from his mouth.

"Carrying branch vine..."

Hearing Duan Yunchang's answer, there was no surprise in the man's tone, on the contrary, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a kind smile.

"Have you finally figured it out? You have to take on the great responsibility of the world! To sacrifice your life to go to the country, and to see death as home."

In the last two sentences, this man with a thick voice spoke very forcefully, and one could hear the strong expectation and unwavering belief in his tone.

"WTF?"

There were bursts of dull pain in his chest, and he was dizzy with his head. Duan Yunchang couldn't see the person's appearance clearly at all, and he couldn't hear the person's words clearly.

Suddenly, that vague figure quickly approached him, roughly opened his mouth and stuffed a thin rattan stick into it.

His tongue pressed against it uncontrollably, and then the rod slid down his throat and spread out.

"This is the carrying vine, you have to protect it and use it well."

The man disappeared after speaking, Duan Yunchang held his throat with difficulty and coughed non-stop, trying to vomit the thing out.

He vomited several times and really didn't have any strength left, so he gave up and put down his hand, gasped for a few times, only to feel dizzy in front of his eyes, ringing in his ears, and completely lost consciousness.

The hall became quiet again, the Red River flowed unhurriedly, and children's nursery rhymes came from nowhere.

When Gu Nianzi entered the hall, he saw the unconscious person on the ground at first sight, his eyes gradually turned bad, he shook the sword in his hand and approached Duan Yunchang.

The sword pointed straight at the sleeping man on the ground, and then slowly moved down to his heart. The distance between the two was only one knuckle long, and it only took one step forward to pierce Duan Yunchang's heart.

"How could he give you the carrying vine?"

Gu Nianzi frowned and glanced at the Red River, looking at Duan Yunchang in puzzlement.

Seeing Duan Yunchang's mouth was red and swollen, with a trace of black blood on the corner of his mouth, he had a little understanding.

Just now Duan Yunchang kissed him on the mouth by mistake, and got a lot of his breath.Thinking about the blindness of that person again, it is common sense to admit the wrong person in this way.

"Do you want to keep your life or not?"

Gu Nianzi became a little distressed, raised his sword for a while, but finally turned around and walked to the ice coffin without making a move.

After he repaired some damaged runes on the ice coffin, Duan Yunchang behind him had slowly woken up and looked at him quietly.

Duan Yunchang found that he couldn't move his entire body, he could only lie on the ground stiffly like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Now the carrying vine has fallen into his belly, he and Gu Nianzi have just met each other, both of them came here for carrying the branch, maybe now Gu Nianzi will kill him for carrying the branch.Because human nature is like this, for what you want, you will definitely do whatever you want.

Gu Nianzi leisurely lit the candles around the ice coffin four or five times one by one, and then turned his gaze back to Duan Yunchang.

Seeing Duan Yunchang's pale complexion, tight lips, and vigilance in his eyes.

He chuckled lightly, "What are you afraid of?"

Duan Yunchang froze for a moment and turned his head to the other side, the calm expression on his face cracked where Gu Nianzi couldn't see, and he worshiped all the gods and Buddhas in his heart.

"I'm not such a failure in life, I won't kill you." Gu Nianzi said softly as if he had forgotten the killing intent that surged up in him just now.

The sound of gentle footsteps echoed in the empty hall, and Duan Yunchang felt that the man was getting closer and closer to him, so he stood still and squatted beside him.

"You were seriously injured." Gu Nianzi stretched out his hand and pulled Duan Yunchang up from the cold ground, and then passed his hand under his knees to hug him and put him next to the lit candle.

The temperature of the candle was just enough to reach his body, gradually dissipating the chill from his body.

"Thank you." Duan Yunchang looked at Gu Nianzi leaning on the side with his head slightly lowered in thought, and said cautiously.

He had no doubt that Gu Nianzi was planning to kill him at this moment.

Suddenly feeling a shaking, Duan Yunchang looked for the place where the movement came from, and saw that the bone dragon hanging above their heads began to loosen.

The thick white bones that were built fell off one by one like that, hitting the ground with a gust of wind.

While Duan Yunchang's eyes widened in shock, the broken hair in front of his forehead was pulled up to reveal a full and smooth forehead.

A huge white bone was falling straight from the top of Gu Nianzi's head, Duan Yunchang didn't have time to think, so he rushed up and rolled Gu Nianzi in his arms to avoid it.

Gu Nianzi sighed lightly, without any sign of panic or fear.It seemed to be distressed by Duan Yunchang's actions towards him.

When he looked at Duan Yunchang, his eyes dimmed for a bit, and then returned to normal in a blink of an eye.

Helping Duan Yunchang up, he led him into a relatively safe corner and stayed there.

"We...shouldn't have escaped?" Duan Yunchang looked at the exit that was about to be blocked, and his heart was more than half cold.

He didn't know why he moved in a hurry just now, but unfortunately after saving Gu Nianzi, he couldn't move his body again.

"There are still things not taken away." Gu Nianzi looked up at the thing in the skeleton.

Following his gaze, Duan Yunchang saw something similar to a puppy surrounded by faint red talisman lights in the skeleton. It is growing at an abnormal speed, and its appearance is also It's getting clearer.

It didn't take shape until the talisman light disappeared.

Duan Yunchang blinked his eyes in disbelief, and the little thing opened his eyes again and flew towards him with a cheerful cry.

"Owner!"

When the little thing looked at them, his big black eyes seemed to be inlaid with precious stones, and his head was round and round like a tiger's brain. The rosy one-horn on his forehead was very beautiful, like a dog. The dog-like ears fluttered a few times, and the long dragon-like body twisted happily.

"What?" Duan Yunchang hid behind Gu Nianzi in fright, completely throwing away his aloof image.

"Owner?"

The little thing flew in front of Gu Nianzi and tilted his head, wondering for a while.

"Why... the carrying vine is not in your hands anymore?"

Gu Nianzi said calmly, "You have changed hands now."

It took a while for Duan Yunchang to understand what Gu Nianzi said about Di Ting and what kind of connection it had with Xie Zhi Teng.

"Do you really want me to bleed?" Duan Yunchang's face was full of reluctance, and he looked at Gu Nianzi with some pleading eyes.

He really just wanted to take the carrying vine and leave!No more ideas!

It's not just that he doesn't want to, the divine beast named Di Ting doesn't seem particularly willing either, it just looked at Gu Nianzi aggrievedly and said, "I don't want to change the master... Otherwise, I'll kill him for you, my lord. take out?"

Hearing this, Duan Yunchang's spine shivered, and he quickly picked up the dagger that Gu Nianzi handed over and quickly slashed on his finger, and a drop of blood fell into Gu Nianzi's white palm.

His blood was not thick, as soon as it fell into Gu Nianzi's palm, it spread out along the palm lines, and disappeared in an instant.

Di Ting blinked and opened his mouth wide, unable to make a sound at all.

Gu Nianzi stared at his empty palm and remained silent, also slightly stunned.

He had no idea that Duan Yunchang's blood would be fused into his palm prints, making both of them sign the blood contract of Di Ting.

"I have two masters?" Di Ting felt a little embarrassed, sighed and turned into a miniature version of the huge bone dragon above the roof just now.

Its prototype is a white dog, but thinking of walking as a dog, its appearance is so cute that it doesn't match Gu Nianzi's image, so it casually transformed into a small bone dragon, which looks more low-key.

He didn't worry too much about whether there were two masters, he snorted for a while, then got into Gu Nianzi's wide sleeve and never came out again.

Duan Yunchang was still in a daze, he raised his finger and looked at the small wound on it, feeling like a nightmare.

"You and I?"

Gu Nianzi pondered lazily for a while, then narrowed his eyes and looked at Duan Yunchang again, looking a little troubled.

"We may have known each other in a previous life, and I may have done something to offend Mr. Duan so that God punished me by letting me meet you today."

His tone of voice didn't fluctuate much, but Duan Yunchang could feel how depressed the person in front of him was when he carefully savored what he said.

Reluctantly helping his forehead, Gu Nianzi picked him up again, "Let's go out first and then talk."
