The state capital in the dark is like a giant beast dormant.

In an inn, a girl in red was anxiously pacing back and forth; behind her, a monk with withered hair and a scar on his face was being firmly tied to a beam with a hemp rope.

There was a knock on the door, and the girl hurried to open the door: "Senior brother!"

Opening the door, a figure in a black robe stood outside.Tang Jinyi raised his hood, revealing his signature white hair.

Ding Mengyu was very happy to see him, and just as he was about to speak, Tang Jinyi stuffed a bagful of fried chestnuts with sugar: "No, I just bought it tonight, take it to eat." After speaking, he took out a bunch of chestnuts from his storage bag Pastries: "And mica cakes."

Watching him take out a lot of snacks like a juggler, Ding Mengyu couldn't help being stunned for a moment: "Master, senior brother, these are for me?"

Tang Jinyi nodded: "Yes."

The corners of Ding Mengyu's eyes turned red: "Brother..." As he said that, he wanted to hug him.

Tang Jinyi raised a hand to block her: "Okay, okay, calm down, why are you still crying when you're an adult."

Ding Mengyu pressed his forehead against the palm of his hand, and said eagerly: "No, brother, can you lend me some money, I've spent all of my scriptures..."

Tang Jinyi: "..." How many story books have you bought!

At this time, the middle-aged monk who was ignored by them in the corner struggled up and made a "woo hoo" sound.Tang Jinyi glanced over there, walked over unhurriedly, and knelt down in front of the monk.The man seemed to have just woken up, with a rag stuffed in his mouth, and he stared at Tang Jinyi with annoyed eyes.

The scars on his face kept beating due to anger, making the already ugly face even more terrifying.But Tang Jinyi looked at him with a very indifferent expression, as if looking at the inconspicuous leaves on the side of the road.

If it is really someone related to Gu Xuemian, direct divination may backfire on him.Tang Jinyi moved his hand slightly, and a rattan chair appeared behind him. He sat on it and tore off the sackcloth from the monk's mouth: "You said you knew about my apprentice."

The white-haired Immortal Venerable stared at him coldly, with a sense of oppression in the Nascent Soul Realm, which made the monk shrink his head.But he quickly raised his head and smiled ferociously: "You are Xuanyi Immortal? Hehe, you don't know what you have accepted as an apprentice, do you?"

Tang Jinyi looked at him indifferently: "It's not up to others to comment on who I take as an apprentice."

The monk's face froze slightly.

He seemed to be biting his teeth unwillingly, and then heaved a long sigh: "Did you see the scar on my face? To be honest, it was left to me by that little bastard. At that time, he smiled and called me Master gave me a knife, but it was really cruel."

Ding Mengyu sneered beside him: "You said you were Gu Xuemian's master, so you are?"

The monk rolled his eyes and looked at Tang Jinyi: "You know he has a tattoo, right?"

Tang Jinyi looked back at him expressionlessly.

In fact, he has long recognized the person in front of him. In the illusion of monsters, he has seen this face, the face of Gu Xuemian's former "master".But it was also this person who stabbed the young Gu Xuemian.Therefore, Tang Jinyi didn't have a good impression of him from the very beginning.

Ignored Gu Xuemian for so many years, and only came to him when he became his apprentice...An's must not have good intentions.

So Tang Jinyi said to Ding Mengyu: "Mengyu, you should go back and rest first. I will deal with this person."

"Oh? Oh." Ding Mengyu nodded, picked up snacks and left happily.

When the monk saw him push the others away, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.With a hoarse laugh, he continued: "That's not a tattoo, but a companion beast that was born with that kid. At first I thought it was just an ordinary companion beast. Although it was rare, it was not unheard of, but I didn't expect it ..."

Tang Jinyi remained expressionless: "I can't understand the python."

The monk was startled: "You know?"

Rubbing his temples with some headaches, Tang Jinyi thought he must ask the people in the database why there are so many hidden plots in this mission world.A person who knows the male lead's bloodline suddenly appeared, wouldn't it be bad if he leaked the news early?

The monk stared at him suspiciously: "You know that he has the blood of the impenetrable mysterious python, but you still dare to accept him as an apprentice? What are you thinking!"

I'm thinking that it's time to update the database of the Wearing Book Department.Tang Jinyi complained silently in his heart, but his face remained calm: "These have nothing to do with you, it explains your purpose."

After looking at him strangely for a while, the cultivator showed a "so it is" expression on his face: "Hehe, as expected of the Tianqing Sect, you want to let that monster grow completely, and then use it for yourself? It's a pity that the Xuanmang was originally It is not a bloodline that humans can bear, unless you can find a body that is naturally cold, otherwise you will definitely die violently before you grow into an adult body..."

Catching the words in it, Tang Jinyi was slightly stunned: "Born with a cold body?"

Seeing his surprised expression, the monk's face changed, and then he gloated and said, "You don't know? Haha, only the heart of the naturally cold body can make the black python survive the last molt safely, otherwise the body will be killed by the snake. Blood burns to death!"

Tang Jinyi: "..."

At this moment, the original owner's final ending resurfaced in his mind: he had his heart cut out and his tongue cut out... Now Tang Jinyi understands why there was such a tragic ending.He remembered that his body was naturally afraid of the cold, and Ran Qing said that he had to take medicine every day to suppress the cold poison. After a long time, he was not only cannon fodder, but also an introduction to the medicine.

Isn't he the one born with the cold body of Lao Shizi?

The monk looked at him mockingly: "Didn't your good apprentice tell you this? It's okay, if you are willing to cooperate with me, I will tell you how to kill Gu Xuemian. If you don't use special methods, no one can kill him. "

However, Tang Jinyi didn't really want to talk to him.

He was afraid that his mouth would be a dirty word.If the male protagonist will explode and die if he doesn't eat himself, then he knows why he has to use this identity to complete the mission... Gu Xuemian's last molt must be the end of his mission.

After a long silence, Tang Jinyi finally said, "Tell me, what can I do?"

The monk thought that he agreed, so he made a fool of himself first: "If you want to kill the body that can't learn the python, you can only when it is shedding its skin."

Tang Jinyi: "Oh."

Cultivator: "If you want to know the rest, just follow me..."

Tang Jinyi: "I refuse."

Monk:?

He didn't understand why Tang Jinyi suddenly refused: "Didn't I say it? It's impossible for you to make the mysterious python work for you. It takes ten thousand years to get one with a body born with ice coldness. It's impossible to wait. Why don't you use it?" Take out the snake blood and use it to improve your cultivation..."

Tang Jinyi interrupted him: "Since you were Gu Xuemian's master, why do you want to put him to death so much?"

He raised his eyelashes, and those pale amber eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, making the monk afraid to look at him for a moment.

"It's just a monster that is neither human nor snake..." He insisted, "I can't believe that the blood of the mysterious python is so strong, how do you know how many human parts are still in his body? I raised him for so long, and he was not Bite back." At this point, he gritted his teeth again: "That's a little lunatic, an unwanted wild dog..."

"Stop," Tang Jinyi frowned unhappily, "You know he's my apprentice, right? He's still swearing in front of me?"

The monk was stunned, and said in disbelief: "You still regard him as an apprentice?!"

Tang Jinyi thought that it was not the first day I knew the secret of the hero's bloodline.But he didn't bother to explain to this person, he just said briefly: "I'm protecting my shortcomings."

For a while, the room fell silent.

The monk stared at Tang Jinyi with an expression as if he was looking at a psychopath.He probably will never understand why Tang Jinyi knows the danger and still protects that kid.

At this moment, there was a light knock on the window.

The two people in the room were stunned for a moment, and the monk showed a look of surprise on his face.Tang Jinyi frowned, got up and walked to open the window.

This room is on the top floor of the inn, and there are eaves flying outside the window.Under the clear moonlight, Tang Jinyi saw a young man in black standing there, with a smile that he was very familiar with—I don't know how many times he had heard it.

When Gu Xuemian spoke, her tone was gentle, and she asked the same question as in the illusion: "Xianzun, are you going to kill me too?"
