    Chapter 43: Am I a sacrifice???

    Before Mo Ran could speak, he suddenly heard a sharp and harsh voice behind him shouting: “Give way, give way! Let me pass first!”

    Is it that locust?!

    The locust hunched over the heavy stone and crawled forward as hard as ever before arriving in front of the pharmacy and shouting: “I can’t bear it anymore! Come and save my life!”

    A white-haired dragon man swam out – but his dragon tail was completely different from that of the dragon man. His whole body was flowing with gold, shining with gorgeous luster, and his full head of gorgeous hair was tied with simple hair buttons, hanging down on his shoulders.Although his face is full of wrinkles, his face is well-proportioned, his nose bridge is straight, his lips are well-curved, and he has a pair of hazy golden eyes. You can imagine that this man must have been extremely handsome when he was young.

    The ink burned.

    It wasn’t like this before. What about the green dragon?

    The old Jiao man glanced at them from a distance, but did not speak. Instead, he came to the threshold, bent down, and took down the stones that the Jiao was hunched over one by one.

    The last stone was moved away, and the illusion was broken. The locust suddenly exploded, and pus and blood spattered everywhere in an instant, filling the air like mist.Almost at the same time, all the monsters and demons in the market froze up, and then their whole bodies became limp and pus oozed, turning into the stinky blood that filled the lake.

    The lake water was dyed red in an instant. As the color of the blood became darker and darker, Mo Ran and Chu Wanning soon found it difficult to see things in the distance clearly. After that, they could not see clearly the nearby things. In the end, the eyes were so scarlet that it was difficult to see the five fingers.

    Chu Wanning said: “The ink burns.”

    Mo Ran understood he so well that he didn’t even need Chu Wanning to say anything else, just said: “Master, don’t worry, I’m here.”

    Chu Wanning didn’t say much, or he was too stupid. He was silent for a while and just said: “Be careful in everything.”

    There was a blur in the blood, and Mo Ran couldn’t see the face that didn’t change color even if the sky fell, but it was easier to detect the concern in the master’s voice.He rarely felt the warmth of Chu Wanning on weekdays. At this moment, he suddenly felt a heat in his chest. He tightened the other person’s hand and responded: “Okay.”

    The two of them were so close, back to back, that although they couldn’t see each other, they could feel each other’s heartbeat and breathing.The situation was strange, Chu Wanning summoned Tianwen, and Mo Ran also recovered his spiritual power at this time, and then summoned the ghost.

    Shortly after the two called out their respective gods, Mo Ran suddenly said: “Master, look over there!”

    Chu night Ning turned sideways, just at the door of the pharmacy where the old man was picking up stones, dozens of white spots of different sizes suddenly appeared on the ground.The two went hand in hand, and when they got closer, they discovered that those light spots were indeed the stones left by the grasshoppers.

    These dozens of stones were neatly arranged in three rows by the old dragon man, each one emitting a soft brilliance.

    Slowly, in front of the stone, a figure gradually appeared. It looked like the same white-haired dragon man just now.

    Mo Ran tried to ask: “Who are you?”

    The man didn’t answer. He looked at Chu Wanning, then at Mo Ran, then raised his hand silently and pointed at the stones on the ground.

    Mo Ran asked: “Do you want us to pick up this stone?”

    The white-haired dragon nodded, then stretched out a finger.

    “Does it mean…picking up a piece?”

    The white-haired dragon nodded, shook his head, pointed at Mo Ran, and then at Chu Wanning.

    Mo Ran understood: “Is one person picking up a piece?”

    This time, the white-haired dragon man nodded vigorously, then stopped moving, staring at the two people with his big eyes.

    Mo Ran asked: “Master, do you want to listen to him?”

    “Just do as he says, there is no other way for now anyway.”

    So the two of them each chose a stone and picked it up. Unexpectedly, as soon as their fingertips touched the stone, a strange light flashed before their eyes, the sky and the earth rotated, and colorful colors rushed past.When everything came to a standstill, the endless blood-red color suddenly disappeared.

    Taking a closer look, they were actually transported to the divine arsenal!

    “Master!!”

    “Master, Ah Ran!!”

    Xue Meng and Shi Mo were actually here. When they saw Chu Wanning, they were both surprised and happy, and they came over.Unexpectedly, the glowing stone was actually attached to the teleportation spell. Chu Wanning was still slightly nauseous due to the rapid rotation. He held his forehead with one hand, but still held the ink tightly with the other hand.

    In the blood lake, Mo Ran and He intertwined their hands and never separated.

    Due to Chu Wanning’s status, he rarely has the opportunity to be involved with Mo Ran. Most of the time, he can only stand not far away and watch the disciples become intimate.

    Therefore, the rare warmth in the palm of his hand actually made him feel some cautious cherishment…

    “Teacher!”

    However, the warmth that is precious to him may be as light as worn shoes in the eyes of another person, or it may not be worth mentioning, or even more likely, it may not even be noticed.

    The moment he saw Shi Mo, Mo Ran naturally let go of his hand.

    Allen Chu’s fingertips moved slightly, and for a moment, he seemed to want to hold him.

    But what’s the reason?

    He no longer has the courage to like others.

    I don’t want to lose even that little bit of pitiful pride.

    Seeing Mo Ran smiling so happily when he saw Shi Mo, he hugged Shi Mo so naturally and rubbed his hair.

    Allen Chu’s fingertips dropped.

    With some surprise and embarrassment.

    Fortunately.

    The face is always calm, and the emotions and sorrows are not so obvious.

    Probably because he is old and stiff, and having been in the teleportation array for a long time, his heart feels a little cold.

    Fortunately, my fingertips are still a little warm.

    He relied on the remaining warmth that would soon dissipate, and slowly stood up straight, straightening up his expression and eyes.

    “Master, are you okay? Why are you looking so pale…”

    Chu Wanning nodded towards Xue Meng and said: “It doesn’t matter.”

    After a pause, he asked again: “Were you also sent here by that shark?”

    Before Xue Meng could speak, he heard a gurgling sound of bubbles.Chu night Ning turned around and suddenly saw half of his bloody face. Then there was a crash in the boiling sword pool, and a twisted person came out!

    This is definitely not a mortal, or definitely not a living person. No mortal can be soaked in burning molten iron and still survive.On the other hand, this person, although his skin was charred and his flesh was rotten, and his bones and flesh were blurred, he was obviously still panting.Four chains locked his limbs respectively, locking him in the furnace and suffering a lot of pain.

    He slowly opened his eyes, bowed to everyone repeatedly, with a look of pleading in his eyes, and asked them to gather at the sword-making pool.

    He couldn’t speak, but he wasn’t completely unable to express himself. I saw he waving his bones and arms, and the molten iron rolling in the pool suddenly set off a small wave, which slowly twisted into several lines of ancient text in the air.

    Xue Meng was surprised: “What word is this? Why can’t I understand any of it?”

    Chu Wanning: “This is Cangjie’s ancient book, which I haven’t taught you yet.”

    Mo Ran said: “Then – what is the content of this?”

    Chu Wanning stepped forward to analyze carefully and said: “…he wants…to ask for help.”

    It is said that the ancient books of Cangjie are celestial texts. Many of them have been lost in the world, and only a few people know them. Even a great master like Chu Wanning cannot identify all the texts.But the general content is still readable.

    Chu Wanning looked at it carefully for a while and slowly translated: “He said that he is the spirit of this willow tree. It is called the topping willow. When it was still a seedling, he was brought to the world by Gou Chen from the seventh heaven of the God Realm. After that, Gou Chen left the world for unknown reasons. The topping willow has never seen him again, and it is not known whether he is dead or alive.”

    “But regardless of whether Gouchen Shanggong is there or not, Topping Willow has been guarding Jinchengchi and guarding the divine arsenal for hundreds of thousands of years as he once ordered. Gradually, nourished by spiritual energy, it transformed into a human form. Then, everything was as usual, until one day, there was a -” Chu Wanning suddenly paused and did not read further.

    Mo Ranqi said: “What’s wrong?”

    “…I don’t recognize these three words. It seems to be a personal name.” Chu Wanning said, raising his hand to click on the complex text, “In short, this person came to Jincheng Pond. He has strong magic power and ruthless heart. He killed all the creatures in the pond and manipulated it with Zhenlong chess. The topping willow is not immune.”

    Mo Ran immediately said: “This person is probably the fake Gou Chen!”

    When Topping Willow heard what he said, her eyes lit up and she immediately nodded her head twice.

    “…I guessed it right.” Mo Ran smiled sheepishly and scratched his head, “Haha, I didn’t expect that I am quite smart.”

    Allen Chu glanced at he lightly and continued:

    “Over the years, the topping willow has been in a state of dementia and has never been awake for half a day. Fortunately, the other two willow branches that were once connected with it, Tianwen and Shigui, have both awakened. With their power, the topping willow has temporarily regained consciousness. Otherwise, I am afraid that it would have lost control and gone berserk, killing everyone present.”

    “Everyone present” heard this, either in disbelief or with lingering fears. The three young men all raised their heads and stared at the spirit body in the sword-making pool, not knowing how to chew on its self-narration.

    Mo Ran said: “Senior Liu——”

    Xue Meng: “Senior Liu?”

    “Otherwise, what would you call me, Senior?” Mo Ran rolled his eyes at Xue Meng and continued, “Let me tell you something you may not like to hear. Your words are really difficult to justify.”

    Although Topping Willow couldn’t speak, he could understand Mo Ran’s words and turned his face.

    Mo Ran said: “You first said that you were bewitched by the false Gouchen, and then you said that your recovery was due to the influence of Tianwen and the spiritual energy after the ghosts woke up. But the ghosts gave it to me through the false Gouchen. Don’t you know what the consequences will be?”

    Topping Willow shook his head, and the words in front of Chu Wanning changed.

    “I am a tree species in the divine world. He doesn’t know me well and doesn’t know that divine martial arts can affect my mind. He needs my strength to study the three forbidden arts. In recent years, because my life is coming to an end, he has been anxious and has been looking for ways to extend my life. But I really don’t want to live anymore. I would rather die than help others. Unfortunately, I am controlled by others and can’t help myself…”

    Chu Wanning read this and pondered slightly: “So he let Mo Ran come to the bottom of the water. Mo Ran is the essence of the wood spirit. The plan of the fake Gou Chen must be to combine Mo Ran and the ghost’s spiritual power into one and sacrifice it to you.”

    Topping Willow nodded.

    Mo Ran is still puzzled: “But the fake hook said that there are two wood spirit essences, and the master is one of them. Why did he lock me up alone?”

    Topping Willow wrote: “Since ancient times, the best sacrifices are young ones, and those for tree spirits must be even more unambiguous. In addition, the sacrifices must be full of food and drink, satisfy all seven emotions and six desires, and then be taken away in an unknowing dream of bliss. If not, the sacrifices will have regrets and resentments, which will speed up my withering.”

    he said this.The ink suddenly thought of the fox demon who turned into Chu Wanning in the secret room.

    It turns out that it is to satisfy he’s lust, just like raising a pig to make it fat before killing it so that it tastes delicious.

    In this way, it makes sense why he saw Chu Wanning instead of Shi Mo.He cherishes and pities his teacher, so he dare not play with him.Along with lust, his desire for Chu Wanning is indeed much stronger than Shi Mo…

    Seeing that Mo Ran’s expression was different, Chu Wanning said he was still frightened and wanted to explain he a few words, so he asked: “What are you thinking about?”

    “No, it’s nothing.”

    Seeing that Mo Ran’s face was red, Chu Wanning was stunned for a moment, suddenly understood, and suddenly stopped talking. After a while, he turned his head in anger.

    Why is this kid so frightened?It turned out that he recalled the so-called “seven emotions and six desires” and started to have wild imagination.

    Chu night Ning shook his sleeves angrily, with a cold face, and whispered: “Shameless.”

    Mo Ran: “…………”

    Fortunately, Chu Wanning didn’t know who was satisfying his lust in the fantasy. If he knew, would he be so angry that he would be skinned alive?

    Just as he was thinking wildly, suddenly, the ground of Shenwuku shook violently for a while, and Xue Meng was shocked: “What’s going on?”
