Through the world of cultivating immortals, I reached the pinnacle of my life by selling miserable

Chapter 116 Not an old friend? !
"what happened?"

Gu Ran turned her head and looked at Gu Bai suspiciously.

The smile on her face froze a little because of the movement of turning her head.

The old woman also turned around and said, "Young man, you must be tired from walking, come in and have a rest."

Her face is kind, and there are two words in her smile, sincerity.

Lian Qi rolled his eyes and said bitterly, "Hmph, if you don't want to go in, just wait outside by yourself."

Facing the three people with different expressions and tones, Gu Bai tightened the fan in his hand, but finally let go.

He sent a voice transmission to Gu Ran: "There is indeed something wrong here."

"You can go in, just be careful."

His expression was very serious. Although Gu Ran didn't quite understand, seeing his gloomy face, she nodded and did as he did.

After Gu Bai got the answer he wanted, he entered the old lady's yard first.

The moment he entered the yard, all the uncomfortable feelings suddenly disappeared, which also dispelled Gu Bai's worries a bit.

The old woman came in after Gu Ran and the other three, so none of them saw it. After they entered the yard, the old woman's eyes showed a sly gleam.

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if heralding the imminent danger.

When the three of them walked to the center of the courtyard, an old man staggered out of the house.

Holding a teapot in his hand, he greeted the three of them very warmly: "Xiao Ran, you are tired from the journey, hurry up, sit down and drink some water."

He put the teapot in his hand on the table in the yard, and brought out two more snacks from the kitchen.

The plain white porcelain plate, with small and delicate snacks, looks particularly attractive.

At this time, the old woman also walked up to the three of them, and she picked up a piece of snack and stuffed it directly into Gu Ran's hand.

"Try this quickly, it's sweet and fragrant, very delicious."

Although the old lady was very enthusiastic when she came last time, Gu Ran always felt a little uncomfortable with her enthusiasm this time.

She twitched the corner of her mouth, and then put the pastry back on the plate.

"No, grandma, I don't like sweets."

As for the address of the old lady, Gu Ran naturally called grandma again.

This address made Gu Bai look sideways frequently, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Ran.

The meaning in that look was obvious.

"Your grandma? Is this your hometown?"

Gu Ran squinted her eyes and smiled at Gu Bai, and said via voice transmission: "I stayed here with my ancestor for a while before, and I think these two old people are very similar to my grandparents, so I have always called them that..."

Gu Bai nodded slightly to express his understanding, but there was a wave of turmoil in his heart.

How could Lian Qi agree to live in a farmer's house? I know his personality very well.

Even if he suffered a very serious injury, he would just find a cave to retreat. How could he live here, not for a day, but for a period of time.

Thinking of this, Gu Bai looked at Lian Qi with scrutiny.

In this auction, Lian Qi's attitude was very unclear, he would risk his life for a sect disciple.

If he didn't practice the Unfeeling Dao, I would suspect that he was tempted.

Gu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, a sneer suddenly appeared on his face.

Wouldn't it be more interesting if the unfeeling Tao touched all hearts?

In an instant, Gu Bai thought of a very interesting thing.

But he doesn't know what consequences his decision today will have in the future. If he had predicted the consequences in advance, maybe everything would be different.

Ever since Lian Qi became a child, he especially liked to eat.

It's like trying to make up for all the things that I didn't eat when I was bigu.

When he saw the two plates of snacks on the table, he was naturally happy, and was about to grab a bite, when he saw the malicious smile on Gu Bai's face who was sitting by the side.

Lian Qi's heart immediately rang an alarm, he hurriedly threw the pastry back to his mouth.

It seems that it is not a delicious pastry, but a vicious snake and scorpion.

"Gu Ran, have you always had a sweet tooth?" he didn't say, but because of this episode, he completely forgot about it.

Seeing that the three of them didn't eat the cakes on the table, the old man and the old woman's faces turned ugly.

They looked at each other, and then the old man stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for the three of them.

"Since you don't want to eat, let's drink a cup of tea to relieve fatigue."

The old man smiled, his eyes fixed on the hands of the three who were about to hold the teacups.

Gu Ran picked it up and smelled it carefully.

A seductive fragrance penetrated the nose from the water, making people have a desire to drink it immediately.

Seeing this desire getting stronger and stronger, Gu Ran desperately suppressed her inner thoughts.

She put the tea back on the table with a bang, and a few drops of tea splashed on the outside of the teacup.

"It's really good tea, but the three of us are used to vulgarity, so I'm afraid we won't be able to enjoy it."

Gu Ran forced a smile.

The more she looked, the more she felt that the old man and the old woman in front of her were so strange, they didn't look like the two she knew at all.

Especially the old lady, she loved Gu Ran the most before, but just now when Gu Ran put down the teacup, a look of anger flashed across her face.

Gu Ran bit her lower lip, and a trace of blood spread in her mouth.

The pain made her wake up a lot.

When she looked at the table again, she realized that the table in front of her had turned into a half wooden stake, and there were no white plates and exquisite pastries on the wooden stake.

Some were just two large leaves covered with yellow-brown, foul-smelling soil.

Looking at the teapot and teacup again, it seems to have turned into a circle surrounded by two big leaves. The tea with attractive aroma has disappeared, replaced by countless centipedes, scorpions, and various poisonous insects.

They kept crawling in the circle of leaves, and occasionally two small poisonous insects crawled onto the table.

Did I just hold this kind of thing and smell it?
"vomit--"

The scene in front of him and the images that were constantly filling up in his mind really stimulated Gu Ran's senses.

There was unconscious nausea in her stomach, and her face became quite ugly in an instant.

These reptiles were something that Gu Ran hated and feared in her previous life. In the world of cultivating immortals, these reptiles are still her shadow.

She lowered her head and took a deep breath, and when she looked up at the tree stump, the table, plates, pastries, and tea just now returned to their original state.

How could it be?

Gu Ran stared at the thing in front of her, blinked her eyes vigorously, the table was still a table, the tea was still tea, and there was no more dirt and reptiles.

It seemed that the scene just now was just her own hallucination.

Something is wrong, very wrong, it is impossible for me to have such hallucinations...

Gu Ran turned to look at the old man and the old woman again.

This time, she felt that the warm and loving smiles on their faces were extremely false.

It's like they're wearing a layer of human skin that doesn't belong to them.

Gu Ran suddenly thought of Gu Bai's warning before entering the door, she regained her senses instantly, and stopped Gu Bai and Lian Qi who were about to drink tea.

Because she was too anxious, she accidentally knocked Gu Bai's tea over him.

Gu Bai stood up immediately, and the fragrant tea immediately left large spots of water stains on his clothes.

However, the shape of the water stain is very strange, and the corners are too clean and tidy, as if someone drew it with a ruler.

Looking at this scene, Gu Ran suddenly thought of something, and she quickly touched Gu Bai's sleeve that was splashed.

what?

She froze for a moment, then touched the wet spot on Gu Bai's leg.

still doing it...

At the same time as reaching this conclusion, Gu Ran's heart turned cold.

If the tree stump and poisonous insect just now were not hallucinations, then the two old men may have been killed...

Gu Ran frowned, she firmly believed that the real two old people would never use this method to hurt herself.

She was thinking about a solution when she suddenly felt a force behind her, pulling herself back violently.

Immediately afterwards, there was Lian Qi's immature and mature words: "Whether a man or a woman is close to each other, you two should keep a distance, otherwise I am afraid that people will be misunderstood again."

·His voice is a little muffled, and he is a little unhappy when he hears it.

But at this moment, Gu Ran was not in the mood to explain to him, she glanced at the old man and old woman beside her.

The eyes of the two of them gradually changed from kindness at the beginning to fierceness, and their hands were all gathered in their sleeves.

Is this to show off? !
Gu Ran trembled in her heart and sighed.

At this moment, she couldn't help regretting her decision to stop by to see the two old people.

Gu Bai was facing her, so he naturally noticed all her small movements.

He walked over and changed the fan to his left hand, while his right hand held Gu Ran's wrist and squeezed it lightly twice.

This action reassured Gu Ran a lot.

Her mood calmed down a lot, and her mind became clearer.

The top priority is to return to the Thunder Spirit Sect as soon as possible. After returning to the sect, you can call the head of the sect to investigate this matter...

Therefore, it is best to resolve this matter peacefully. Even if it cannot be resolved peacefully, it must be resolved quickly. Otherwise, it will not be worth the loss if it attracts monks from other sects...

Gu Ran took a deep breath in her heart, then put on a harmless smile, and said affectionately to the old woman: "Grandma, I suddenly remembered that there was something left in the previous inn. Important, I must find it immediately."

As she said that, her smile was tinged with apology: "Grandma, I just came here this time to see you. I'm relieved to see that you are doing well."

"We'll eat these next time we come here, this time first..."

If she wanted to say goodbye first, before she could say it, the old woman at the side stretched out her hand like withered bark, picked up the white porcelain plate on the table, and approached Gu Ran's eyes.

"Xiao Ran, don't rush to leave. If you don't eat such a good thing, it will be wasted. It won't take long to eat, so you should eat it soon!"

The old woman's voice changed from the kind and gentle voice just now, to something harsh and frightening.

Judging by her appearance, she wished she could stuff these foods into Gu Ran's mouth herself.

The old man on the side also stepped forward, and the hostility floating on his body was almost visible to the naked eye.

Belatedly, Lian Qi finally realized what had happened, he pursed his lips, walked to Gu Ran's side, and took Gu Ran's other hand with his small hand.

His hands were small, but he worked hard to transfer his body temperature to Gu Ran's hands.

The scene of the three holding hands is quite like a family of three.

Gu Ran saw that the two old men were all on the verge of swords and swords, and she immediately understood that today's affairs could not be good.

She moved the hand that Gu Bai was holding, and after Gu Bai looked over, she gave him a look of "protect the ancestor first when we fight later".

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for the old woman and the old woman and the old man to react, she took the lead in attacking.

The blood vermilion vine in the space bracelet was like a swimming snake, silently hanging down to the ground, and circled behind the old woman and the old man.

In the next moment, red blood vermillion vines grew rapidly, tightly entwining the two old men.

Gu Ran looked at the two old men whose faces changed drastically because they couldn't move, and asked, "Who are you, why are you pretending to be someone else?!"

"Where did the original two old people go?!"

She thought she had the chance to win, but when the two old people in front of her smiled in a very strange posture "ho ho", they turned into two piles of black liquid in a lightning speed.

No matter how powerful the blood vermillion vine is, it will never be able to imprison a pile of shapeless liquid.

After trying several times to no avail, it had to give up, and returned to Gu Ran's hands listlessly.

"What the hell is this?!"

Looking at the black liquid constantly flowing under her feet, Gu Ran couldn't help but exclaimed.

Gu Bai slightly narrowed his long and narrow Ruifeng eyes, and stopped Gu Ran who was about to step forward.

The black viscous liquid was churning on the ground. Their original target was Gu Ran, but because she was blocked by Gu Bai, they targeted Lian Qi who looked weaker.

They combined violently to form a huge black humanoid liquid.

The humanoid liquid let out a mournful wail, rolled all over and rushed towards Lian Qi.

The wailing seemed to contain the wailing voices of countless people, and Gu Ran felt a very sad emotion in his heart.

The sockets of her eyes turned red quickly, and the tears kept dripping on the ground like broken beads, making soft noises one after another.

"what happened to you?"

Gu Bai couldn't help but squeezed Gu Ran's wrist even tighter, and there was a hint of concern in his voice.

At the moment when he was distracted from asking Gu Ran, the black giant seemed to have found an opportunity, and immediately swallowed up Lian Qi who was holding Gu Ran's other hand.

Lian Qi didn't even have time to call for help.

The black giant succeeded in one blow, and didn't give up. It also grabbed Lian Qi's hand and continued to devour Gu Ran who hadn't returned to God.

"I really don't know how to live or die!"

Gu Bai turned his head, his eyes froze, and the folding fan in his left hand instantly opened.

Layers of black air escaped from the white paper fan, and it turned into a black bone fan in just a moment.

The edge of the bone fan was very sharp, and Gu Bai cut off the connection between the black giant and Gu Ran with just one wave.

The black giant roared piercingly, but Gu Ran didn't get hurt at all.

"He swallowed the ancestor?!"

Gu Ran frowned, and finally recovered.

The blood vermillion vine in her hand flew out in an instant, hitting the black giant.

But her attack didn't work at all.

The black giant squirmed a few times, and immediately separated into several identical clones around its body.

These avatars are as huge and difficult as the main body.

Several times when the blood vermillion vine swung out, it was almost swallowed by the black giant.

"What should I do? He is really difficult."

Gu Ran glanced at Gu Bai, his fan was the same as her own, except for the blow that the black giant was unprepared for at first, none of the subsequent attacks had any effect.

If this goes on like this, Lian Qi may be in danger!
