Was it a coincidence?
Or …
Now his master's chest was not something he could see whenever he wanted to. He could only recall the wound based on his memory. It was a faint crescent-moon color, which should be a pure cut made by a blade. It was not like Chu Xun's, who stabbed with five fingers and left a hideous bloody hole.
After all, it was not the same.
Thinking of this, Mo Ran let out a sigh of relief. Although Chu Xun and Chu Wanning were very different people, there were too many similarities between them. From their looks to the scar on their chests, it was really suspicious that they were coincidentally stacked together.
But he didn't know why. Maybe it was because Chu Xun was too gentle, completely different from Chu Wanning's violent and unrestrained, or maybe it was because Chu Xun was a man with a wife and children. So if Chu Xun was the reincarnation of Chu Wanning, or Chu Wanning, Mo Ran felt that he couldn't bear it and would collapse.
Fortunately, it was not like this.
It was needless to say what kind of disaster Lin 'an City would face without Chu Xun's protection.
Of course, the Ghost King would not keep his promise. After nightfall, there was a rain of blood and wind, and the world was dark.
The moat was dyed red with blood, and the screams of the living after losing their minds resounded through the night.
The city was full of wandering zombies, eating fresh blood sausages and chewing brains.
Mo Ran took Chu Wanning to hide in a dilapidated house. The owner had died long ago, and the furniture and utensils were covered with a thick layer of dust.
Mo Ran closed the door and sealed the room, leaving only a small window in the kitchen open to explore the situation outside.
From time to time, there were sharp screams and ominous chewing sounds outside.
Mo Ran carried Chu Wanning to a small pile of firewood in the corner and touched his head. "According to Miss Qizheng, we can leave after defeating the Ghost King.
So you stay here and don't move. "
Chu Wanning heard this and suddenly raised his head. "Are you going out?"
"Not now. I will go out when the Ghost King shows up."
"But it's very dangerous outside.
The Emptiness Realm has already materialized. With your strength alone, how can you resist it? "
"But I can't bring a child to a fight."
Chu Wanning shook his head. "I'll go with you."
"Hahaha, Junior Brother is so cute, but you're still young. You'll drag me down if you go out with me.
When you're a little older, I won't stop you from taking action when you encounter such things. But this time, you have to listen to your Senior Brother. "
"I won't hold you back."
"That's what people usually say when they're dragging you down," Mo Ran said. "Be good and stop messing around, okay?"
"…"
Seeing that Chu Wanning finally stopped talking, Mo Ran let out a sigh of relief. His eyes looked out through the ridges of the wooden window, and his expression gradually turned solemn.
Why did the Emptiness Realm, which was supposed to be used for training, suddenly materialize?
Junior Brother was right. Someone wanted to harm him.
In his previous life, countless people wanted to kill him, but in this life, he had not offended anyone powerful. After thinking about it, the only person who could possibly want his life was the fake Gouchen he encountered at Jincheng Lake.
But who exactly was the original body of the fake Gouchen?
If he could skillfully use the exquisite Go game to such an extent, why didn't he stand out in his previous life?
Could it be that he was not the only one who was reborn in this world?
This thought made him shudder, and a murderous glint appeared in his eyes.
After his rebirth, he only wanted to bury his past. If there was a second person who was reborn, then things would be very troublesome.
His brows furrowed deeper and deeper. Suddenly, he heard Chu Wanning say, "… Mo Ran, I …"
"What's wrong?"
Chu Wanning gritted her teeth. After weighing the pros and cons, she steeled her heart and decided to tell him the truth.
"Listen to me. Actually, I can help you. I'm …"
But when Mo Ran heard "I can help you", he felt that his junior brother wanted to struggle with him again, so he interrupted him and said, "Okay, okay, I said I won't let you go, so I won't let you go.
Don't force yourself. Listen to me. "
"No, listen to me."
Mo Ran was annoyed, so he said, "I won't listen, you bastard."
"…"
Seeing Chu Wanning's ugly expression, Mo Ran probably felt that his tone was a little too harsh, so he poked between his eyebrows with his finger and said with a smile, "You're so young. Why are you so bitter and resentful, and you don't like to listen to the words of your elders?
Then, let me tell you, since you call me senior brother, we're from the same sect. In this kind of dangerous situation, I have to protect you. Do you understand? "
Chu Wanning closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "… I understand."
"That's good. Then you —"
"But I'm worried about you."
Mo Ran was stunned. The finger that was hanging in front of his forehead seemed to tremble slightly. For a moment, he couldn't say anything.
He had lived two lives, but he had never heard anyone say the words "I'm worried about you".
Even though Shi Mi was gentle to him, he had never expressed his concern for him in such a straightforward manner.
He stared at the little child on the pile of firewood in front of him, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
After a long time, his eyes gradually became very gentle. Then the finger that was poking Chu Wanning gently moved up and fell on the other's soft hair, rubbing it.
"Don't worry. I promise you, I will come back alive."
"Mo Ran, can you listen to me first …"
Mo Ran smiled, "Okay, what do you want to say?"
"Actually, I'm —"
"Bang!" The door was knocked open.
A man with disheveled hair screamed and rushed in. He was covered in blood. One of his legs had been torn to pieces. Behind him was a group of zombies that were attracted by the smell of blood.
The man dragged his broken leg and staggered into the room. He grabbed everything he could grab and threw it at the zombies. He threw it while shouting, "Go away!
Don't come here!
Go away!
Go away! "
Mo Ran cursed inwardly and shielded Chu Wanning behind him. A red light shone in his hand and he summoned Ghost Bearer to protect him. He turned his head and said,
"Junior brother, you hide well. Don't come here!"
After saying that, he went forward and fought with the zombies that broke into the room.
Although the ghost was similar to Heaven's Inquisition, Chu Wanning did not completely teach Mo Ran the moves. Mo Ran's weapon in his previous life was a knife. He was not used to soft weapons. Therefore, although he was not at a disadvantage in the beginning, he gradually became a little weak.
While the ghost dance was in chaos, he suddenly heard the voice of a child behind him. It was clear and cold, "Hit the left wrist three times, then jump up and throw it out from the back."
Mo Ran did not have time to think, so he followed the instructions. The willow vine whipped a zombie on the left. The zombie's arm was broken by Shen Wu. Ordinary people would not be bored enough to whip it twice.
But since Junior Martial Brother had said so, there was no harm in giving it a try. Immediately, he hit the zombie twice. Then, he leaped up and his back went limp. He flipped over and swung the vine whip behind him.
Shua!
It was neither too early nor too late, just in time for the next wave of zombies to arrive. After accumulating strength three times, the Ghost Hunter ignited a blazing scarlet flame, and with a loud rumble, it pounced towards the zombies. The zombies were immediately chopped in half by the violent Spirit Martial, and those zombies were all beheaded. The heads that fell to the ground were still emitting wisps of black smoke.
Mo Ran was stunned. He glanced at his Junior Brother who was sitting on the pile of firewood with a slightly surprised expression.
This guy … … is good?
"How are we going to fight next?" Mo Ran was excited and asked excitedly.
Chu Wanning was expressionless, "Next … … use your left hand and pat the right side of your clothes."
"Oh, this move is profound and unfathomable. What is it?"
Chu Wanning said lightly, "There is nothing profound and unfathomable. You were too proud of yourself just now. Your sleeves were burned by the weapon."
"Ah!" Mo Ran exclaimed. He looked down and saw that it was indeed the case. He hurriedly extinguished the fire that had been ignited by the ghost.
This person's face was really thick. He was not embarrassed at all. He raised his head with a smile and said to the other side, "My little brother is very strong. I like it."
Chu Wanning coughed softly and silently turned her face away. Facing the gray and bare wall, the tips of her ears were a little red.
At this time, there were only six zombies left in the room. Chu Wanning did not want to look at Mo Ran anymore. He still turned his head and commanded the wall, "Relax your wrists. Swing the vine towards the ceiling. After accumulating strength six times, perform One Slash."
Mo Ran did as he was told. But after the fifth round, he suddenly remembered, "How do I perform One Slash?"
"… … Just do it the way you normally use your sword."
"Ah, so that's how it is!"
Mo Ran suddenly understood. He swung down and a raging fire burned. The soft vine seemed to have been instantly tempered into an indestructible long blade. With a shua, it cut the six zombies in half!
"Wah — —"
This time, Mo Ran's eyes were wide open.
"Where did you learn this?
Why do I feel that you are almost as skilled as my Shizun in using the vine whip?
No, maybe you are even better than him. He never told me what you taught me. "
"… …"
Mo Ran beamed with joy, "Good, good, good. Excellent. I won't have to look at Shizun's face in the future. If I learn from you, won't I be happy?"
Chu Wanning glared at him. "Do you dislike Elder Yu Heng for giving you a hard time?
Why don't you dislike me looking at you? "
Mo Ran put away the vine whip and blocked the door again. He dragged a table to block the entrance and laughed, "You look at me because you are good to me.
The two of us can be considered to have gone through thick and thin together. You've treated me well, and I'll remember it all. In the future, I'll treat you as my younger brother and dote on you.
Not to mention you looking at me, even if you are unhappy and hit me twice, I won't be angry. "
Chu Wanning's face darkened, "Who wants to be your younger brother."
He jumped down from the pile of firewood and ignored Mo Ran. Instead, he went to check the injuries of the man who broke in.
Unexpectedly, Chu Wanning opened his eyes slightly, "… … Why is it him?"
"Who is it?"
Mo Ran poked his head over and was also stunned. "That … that Young Man?"
The one lying in a pool of blood and moaning intermittently was Young Man. He was seriously injured. After Chu Wanning checked, he shook his head and said, "Human and ghost can never coexist. It must be that the Ghost King used him and didn't care about him.
This person is really … … "
Mo Ran said, "He deserves it."
Chu Wanning glanced at him.
Mo Ran chuckled and suddenly felt a little guilty. Shouldn't he be the one who deserved retribution the most?
Mo Ran changed the topic and asked, "Right, what did you want to tell me?
What are you actually? "
Chu Wanning lowered his eyelashes, paused, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I am … …"
Before he could finish, he suddenly felt a wind behind him. Chu Wanning was shocked and turned around to face the attack. However, he was a child after all and his strength was far less than that of an adult. He couldn't escape and was tightly locked by the other side!
Young Man struggled and crawled up from the pool of blood with one breath!
One of his hands with bulging blue veins held Chu Wanning's neck tightly, while the other hand held Chu Wanning's arms behind his back. His dirty face was burning with crazy flames, and his desire to survive twisted his whole body, like a wax statue that was deformed under the heat.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he said to Mo Ran in a hoarse voice, "Take me … … out of here … …"
"Let him go!"
"Take me out of here!!" Young Man shouted angrily, and his eyes were about to crack, "Or I will kill him!
Go! "
"You want me to save you, so I will save you. Why are you making life difficult for a child?
Let him go first … … "
"If you say one more word, I will kill him now!!
Anyway, I have done all kinds of bad things, and I don't need this one more!
Are you going or not?! "
Chu Wanning was choked so hard that he couldn't make a sound, and his delicate little face was red.
Seeing this, Mo Ran became anxious. Although he could kill Young Man with a single blow, this was the place where the Virtual Realm had materialized. If Young Man really got angry, she would probably seriously injure his Junior Brother before he could kill her.
Mo Ran said, "Okay, okay, okay, I will listen to you. Don't get angry. Let go of me first, I will … …"
Before he finished, blood splattered everywhere!
