Mortal Mirror

The Well of Longevity remained as it always had, perhaps for decades, centuries, or even millennia, it would forever remain unchanged.

Standing before the Well of Longevity, Li Ergou peered into the water. To his surprise, the water level had risen significantly, the reason for which was unknown.

He drew up a bucket of water, took a sip, and found the well water to be cold with a hint of sweetness. He offered some to Ye Wanwan, who also nodded in approval.

She simply didn't understand why Li Ergou had brought her to see a well, and a very peculiar one at that.

Li Ergou then recounted his fateful encounter with the Well of Longevity. After hearing his incredible experience, Ye Wanwan could not help but gape in astonishment.

She asked, "What exactly is down in that well? Do you still not know?"

Li Ergou shook his head and said, "I don't know. She didn't say back then, and I didn't ask in that situation. When I went down again, there was nothing there. It's always been a regret. But I'm determined that when I have the ability, I must rescue her."

Ye Wanwan shook her head, saying, "Ergou-ge, I don't think it's wise to do that. After all, you don't know if the thing down there is good or bad. If you release a peerless evil, wouldn't that be a sin?

I think you shouldn't release her without knowing what she is, otherwise, even if you repay a debt of gratitude, you'll cause harm to countless people. Wouldn't that be unfair to others?"

Li Ergou hadn't expected Ye Wanwan to say this, but what she said seemed to make sense.

He frowned and pondered for a moment, then said, "Wanwan, you're right, but I don't know what that being in the well is, and I don't know who would know her background. What do you think we should do?"

Ye Wanwan's beautiful eyes flashed, and she said, "That's not difficult. We can find someone to ask, someone who might know her background. Who has lived the longest in Tiangou Town? We'll go find them."

Li Ergou felt that what Ye Wanwan said made sense. Most importantly, he rarely had the time to stay in Tiangou Town for a while, so without much thought, he left with Ye Wanwan.

If you were to ask who knows Tiangou Town best, probably no one could compare to a blind man. That's right, it was the storyteller of Tiangou Town, Wu the Blind.

He had once spoken of the origins of Tiangou Town. Asking him would definitely be the right choice.

In Tiangou Town, inside the Little Crane Pavilion, Wu the Blind had been telling tales of the Great Xia legends for half an hour. Every powerful figure since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty was recounted like a family treasure, told with vivid detail and flying spittle.

However, the people in the small town didn't know if what he was saying was true or false; they were just listening for amusement.

Just as he was getting into the swing of things, with a crisp 'clink,' something golden was thrown into the copper plate of the girl beside him.

This girl had clear eyes and a pretty face. It was the same blonde girl who had led him to the Qunxian Pavilion years ago. Who would have thought that after a few years, this blonde girl would have grown into a graceful young woman. Truly, a girl changes eighteen times as she grows, becoming more and more beautiful.

Looking at the thing that had fallen into the plate, it shone brightly and was about the size of a palm. It was actually a gold cake weighing a hundred taels. As soon as this thing appeared, the people in the Little Crane Pavilion couldn't help but hold their breath, and the atmosphere suddenly became strangely tense.

Even the girl who was always with Wu the Blind opened her mouth wide, her voice somewhat incredulous as she said, "Grandpa, someone gave us a piece of gold."

Although Wu the Blind couldn't see, he could sense things with his divine consciousness. Although he was blind, he was not an ordinary blind man, because he was a cultivator of the divine path.

However, he was a little surprised that someone would be so generous.

At this moment, the crowd parted, revealing two people.

These two people, one tall and thin, the other short and fat, were dressed like Jianghu figures, with a hint of indescribable ferocity on their faces. At first glance, they didn't seem like easy people to deal with.

Wu the Blind looked at the two and couldn't help but laugh, "Oh, this guest, you are so generous, but you are not helping me, but harming me."

As soon as these words came out, everyone naturally understood what he meant. Wasn't it because the gold was too much? With so many people seeing it, if it spread, perhaps before nightfall, Wu the Blind would be lying dead in the streets.

The thin man just smiled slightly, and said disdainfully, "Wu the Blind, you can deceive others, but you can't deceive us brothers.

Although you are very well disguised, unfortunately, a fox will always show its tail. You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it forever.

Do you think you can live peacefully by hiding in this remote place? Hehe, as long as you still know that secret, unless you die, don't even think about living a peaceful life."

As soon as these words came out, the people in the Little Crane Pavilion were slightly surprised, really not knowing what the situation was, but generally, people understood that this Wu the Blind seemed to be not so simple.

Wu the Blind also sighed at this moment, "I remember, looking at your appearance, you should be the legendary Thin Dragon and Fat Tiger, I really didn't expect that after so many years of hiding here, you two would still find me.

In fact, I don't know anything, why do you have to be so aggressive."

Thin Dragon and Fat Tiger, ordinary people don't know their names, but in Baojing Prefecture, the two are still somewhat famous, because the identities of these two guys are not simple, they are disciples of the Luoyun Sect.

Luoyun Sect, is a sect in the three mountains and ten sects of Baojing Prefecture, and can be ranked eighth in the sects of Baojing Prefecture, but the reputation of this sect is not very good, the atmosphere from top to bottom is not correct, especially the dog head case ten years ago, which made this sect discredited.

All because there was a blacksmith shop called Lieyan Shenbing, which took out a piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron and wanted to use it to hunt down a lecherous thief named Luo Ayou.

The disciples of the Luoyun Sect, took a dog's head to the Lieyan Shenbing blacksmith shop, and had to say in front of countless people that the dog's head was Luo Ayou, not only that, they also forced the boss of the blacksmith shop to admit that the dog's head was Luo Ayou, and finally took away the meteorite in a fair and upright manner.

This is the famous dog head case, since then, the disciples of the Luoyun Sect did not feel ashamed, but proud, and the reputation of the Luoyun Sect was completely abolished, and was spurned by all sects.

The Thin Dragon and Fat Tiger are even more relying on their high cultivation in the Jianghu, or the Luoyun Sect's uncle generation, making waves in the Jianghu.

The two heard Wu the Blind's words, and they all sneered, "I don't know, in the battle of Xuehua Valley, Wuwu Daoist died in your arms, who else knows about that matter if you don't."

Wu the Blind heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a powerful aura emanated from his body, his voice was cold, "For so many years, I didn't want you to still want me to recall that scene.

It's really damn, it seems that if there is no result today, you will not let me go."

Thin Dragon snorted coldly, "Do you know, we have been looking for you very hard, this time, we also specially went to Jiuzhi Mountain, and took the unique bitter gorilla grass on the mountain.

You should know what to take, as long as a drop, it will make you want to die, not afraid that you will not explain, and this girl is also good, if sold to Baihualou, it may also be worth some silver.

Now we give you two choices, accept our gold, or fight with us, but the price of your loss will be very large, I hope you think clearly before making a decision, don't harm yourself, and this little girl."

Wu the Blind's face changed and changed again, the girl beside him pulled his arm, and said with a fearless face, "Grandpa, Xiaoxiao is not afraid."

Wu the Blind gently stroked the girl's hair, but suddenly picked her up and rushed out.
