"So, in the end, you returned the thousand spirit stones to your senior sister?"
The old master asked her with great interest.
Song Nanshi had a blank expression: "Hmm."
The old master: "Hahahaha!"
Song Nanshi: "…"
She knew that this old man would never miss any opportunity to see her joke.
She just looked at this old man with a blank expression, waiting for him to laugh enough, then calmly said: "You owe me thirty spirit stones from last month and haven't paid them back, plus the wine money from the month before, a total of fifty spirit stones."
The old master's laughter stopped abruptly.
Song Nanshi said considerately: "I won't charge you interest."
The old man was immediately annoyed: "Who said I won't pay you back! I'll pay you back with interest next month!"
This time it was Song Nanshi's turn to laugh: "I was waiting for you to say that!"
The old master snorted: "You came to me, just to remind me to pay back the money?"
Song Nanshi coughed, thinking that she had something to ask for, and decided to be more restrained.
So she said sincerely: "How could it be, I wouldn't dare to bother you if it wasn't for something important."
The old master said sarcastically: "Oh, there really is something, then tell me and let me old man have some fun…"
Song Nanshi looked up at him and made a "five" gesture.
The old man paused, thinking of the spirit stones he owed, and reluctantly changed his tone: "Fine, fine, fine! Just say it!"
Song Nanshi pondered for a moment, hiding the hexagram of "living from death" that she divined, and only told him about the abnormality she saw from Zhuxiu's body after opening her heavenly eyes.
Especially the gray mist that suddenly sprang out of Zhuxiu's life fire.
"Who knew that the old master didn't even listen to her finish, his face changed immediately.
He was furious and scolded her: "Are you stupid! You dare to reach out and grab something you don't know!"
Usually this old man was moody, but Song Nanshi had never seen him so angry, and she was stunned by his scolding.
The old man didn't give her a chance to react, and he got up and opened his heavenly eyes.
Song Nanshi was shocked: "You…"
The old master glared at her: "You stand still and don't move!"
He frowned and carefully examined Song Nanshi's whole body with his heavenly eyes, especially her life fire.
Song Nanshi opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.
The old master was a diviner, but his cultivation was damaged in his early years, and he wouldn't open his heavenly eyes lightly to increase his burden.
But now…
At this time, the old master saw that her life fire had no problems, and there was nothing abnormal about her, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
His eyes hurt.
The old master discreetly pressed his brow, and when he opened his eyes, he scolded her again: "You knew that thing had an effect on other people's life fire and you still dared to touch it! Do you think your life is bigger than other people's life!"
He scolded her so fiercely, thinking that according to Song Nanshi's personality, she would probably retort sarcastically, but when he looked up, he saw that she was looking at him with a complicated expression, not knowing what she was thinking.
The old master raised his eyebrows: "What, you're still not convinced? I'll tell you! You shouldn't have opened your heavenly eyes to help your senior sister in the first place! A diviner, you don't know how dangerous it is to open your heavenly eyes and examine others…"
"Do your eyes hurt?" Song Nanshi suddenly interrupted him.
The old master was stunned, then said unhappily: "Don't interrupt me! Remember! Don't open your heavenly eyes for irrelevant people in the future!"
Song Nanshi looked at him for a long time, and nodded obediently: "I won't do it again."
She suddenly became so obedient, and didn't talk back, the old master was taken aback, and he couldn't scold her anymore.
He was awkward for a while, and he could only say stiffly: "You know it!"
Song Nanshi nodded repeatedly.
The old master wanted to scold her a lot, but his heart was choked by her sudden obedience, and he felt very uncomfortable.
She also said: "You continue, I'm listening."
Old man: "…" What else to continue!
He could only hold back his anger and say: "The gray shadow you saw is called a shadow ghost, a wicked cultivator who made it as his own eyes and claws, a monster! "
Song Nanshi pondered: "Shadow ghost…"
The old master's face became serious, "This thing can secretly steal other people's lifespan for its own use, your senior sister was targeted by this thing, most likely she offended some enemy outside, so they used this sinister method to harm her, this time you were lucky, the person who made the shadow ghost was not skilled, and you easily broke it, but if you meet someone who is proficient in this way, the moment you reach out to catch the shadow ghost, you have to think about where you will reincarnate in the next life!"
"She pondered.
She opened her heavenly eyes when her senior sister's life fire was dim because the shadow ghost was stealing her lifespan?
But was there a plot of shadow ghost harming people in the original book?
Song Nanshi couldn't remember clearly.
The old master saw that Song Nanshi hadn't spoken for a long time, and softened his voice: "Don't worry, you don't have any traces of shadow ghost on your body, either it ran away, or the person who made the shadow ghost was not skilled. But this time you were lucky, if there is a next time, you just wait for me to collect your corpse!"
As he said, he rubbed his forehead, and a trace of fatigue appeared between his eyebrows, and he said unhappily: "Go away if there is nothing wrong! You're wasting my time!"
Song Nanshi saw his fatigue, and suddenly said: "So I'm not an irrelevant person, right?"
Don't open your heavenly eyes for irrelevant people.
When you said that, you were opening your heavenly eyes for me without hesitation.
She looked at the old master's stunned expression for a moment, and suddenly laughed, teasing him: "Old master, just say it if you're worried about me, being hard-mouthed is not handsome."
The old master reacted, and immediately flew into a rage: "Who's worried about you! You get out of here now!"
He jumped up and tried to hit Song Nanshi, and Song Nanshi ran away with her head in her arms.
She still had the guts to shout before being kicked out of the door: "Old master, don't worry, I'll take care of you in the future!"
Old master: "Take care of a fart! You'll die sooner than me if you keep messing around!"
Song Nanshi laughed loudly.
…
On the other side, as soon as she got off the Xuantong Peak, Song Nanshi, who was determined by the old master to have "no traces of shadow ghost on her body", felt a bit cold.
She didn't open her heavenly eyes, so she couldn't see that a wisp of gray mist cautiously crawled out of her hair.
The "cautiously" here is not a metaphor, anyone who can see this gray mist can see its fear from its noseless and eyeless body.
It was smaller than when Song Nanshi first saw it, and it was languid.
The whole mist looked weak, pitiful and helpless.
It held its breath and waited for a long time before crawling from Song Nanshi's hair to her shoulder, afraid of startling her.
This is a shadow ghost with autonomous ability, not to be compared with those shadow ghosts who have no self-awareness.
Since it was born, it has never failed a task.
So at first, when its master asked it to deal with a little girl, it even felt that its master was overkill.
And in fact, that little girl was indeed not a match for it.
But who knew…
The shadow ghost's gaze fell on Song Nanshi.
Who knew that there were such people in this Wuliang Sect who were unknown to the world.
It never thought that someone could see through its disguise with just their heavenly eyes, just like it never thought that this ordinary female cultivator could slap away half of its life with one palm.
It barely managed to save its life.
If the other party was a Yuan Ying expert, it would be fine, but this girl clearly hadn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
No! It had to escape, it had to let its master know that this Wuliang Sect had such a capable person in the Qi Refining stage, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, terrifying!
The shadow ghost held its breath and crawled down.
It had an idea, as soon as it got away from this person, it would find a bird to possess and fly back to its master!
Just right, there was a group of wild birds feeding on the stream when Song Nanshi crossed the bridge.
The shadow ghost was overjoyed and immediately sped up.
Just then, it accidentally touched a strand of Song Nanshi's hair.
The hair fluttered and rubbed against Song Nanshi's neck.
The shadow ghost's eyes widened in an instant!
No!
The next moment, it heard the devil's murmur in its ear: "My neck is a bit itchy, are there mosquitoes in this month?"
A big hand swung over.
At this moment, it remembered the horror of being slapped away half of its life by someone.
History repeated itself.
"Slap"!
It didn't even have time to dodge, and was slapped squarely, and slid down softly.
It was still struggling at this time.
It's okay, there are wild birds below
As long as it possessed one of them…
It tried its best to use its possession ability.
…and then it fell into the river with a "thud".
A turtle was living at the bottom of the river.
The shadow ghost's possession ability accurately landed on the turtle.
The shadow ghost didn't realize anything was wrong at this time, and as soon as it succeeded in possessing, it was overjoyed and hurriedly waved its "wings"."
Wuhu, take off!
Then a turtle went crazy in the water.
Shadow ghost: "?"
Shadow ghost: "???"
It looked at the turtle claws in front of it, and its mentality exploded in an instant.
Song Nanshi did it on purpose!
Song Nanshi definitely did it on purpose!
No! It won't give up! Even if it became a turtle, it could crawl…
Gurgle gurgle gurgle…
Oops! It didn't know how turtles breathe underwater!
Song Nanshi walked on the bridge and heard the movement under the bridge. She looked down subconsciously.
Then she saw a turtle… drowning?
Song Nanshi was surprised: "Turtles can drown?"
She immediately leaned on the railing and watched with interest.
The turtle floated up, took a breath, and sank again.
Repeatedly.
Song Nanshi was interested.
Unfortunately, after a while, a stream of water rushed over, and the interesting turtle was washed away by the water.
Song Nanshi was still not satisfied.
However, when she looked up, she saw Jiang Ji and the old man Liu with the jade pendant standing on the other side of the bridge, staring at her dumbfounded.
Song Nanshi greeted them friendly: "Senior brother, you also came to see the turtle."
Witness No. 1 Jiang Ji: "…"
Witness No. 2 Old Man Liu: "…"
Both of them witnessed the whole process of the crime.
Old Man Liu turned his head and asked Jiang Ji: "I told you! She did it on purpose!"
Jiang Ji: "…"
He couldn't say that his junior sister did it unintentionally.
How could it be so coincidental.
So the two of them looked at her with complicated eyes.
This junior sister, not simple!
Song Nanshi: "???"
What did she do on purpose? Could she do it on purpose by watching a turtle?
…
Downstream of the stream.
The shadow ghost tried its best and finally climbed onto the shore when the water flow slowed down.
It didn't stop for a moment and crawled desperately.
It had to hurry up and find its master, this place was too scary! It had to…
The next moment, it was directly pinched by someone.
A face with sword eyebrows and starry eyes appeared in front of it.
The man was dressed in coarse cloth, his hair casually tied behind him, but he couldn't hide his cold temperament.
"Shadow ghost." He said."
