25 Don't you want to be my brother, but also want to be my Taoist partner?

In the previous life, Ji Chen thought that since he had completed his mission and was about to leave, he might as well make some contributions to this world before leaving.

The ghost clan was independent of the three realms, and often caused chaos in the three realms, bringing great disasters to the world.

Jiuli City and the surrounding areas were all invaded by the ghost clan, resulting in no grass growing, miasma was rampant, and the originally good plants and animals turned into poisonous weeds and poisonous beasts.

Those ordinary mortals who had no cultivation had long been turned into blood by the miasma.

So Ji Chen took "Nian Chen" and went to overthrow the entire ghost clan.

He also knew how powerful the ghost clan was, because no one dared to provoke them.

They are not human, they have bodies that are constantly regenerating like zombies. No matter how serious the injury is, they can recover immediately without any spiritual power.

Moreover, the most terrifying thing is that the miasma they produce can corrode everything.

Ji Chen fought in the ghost domain for 49 days, and finally died of exhaustion, and his body was completely corroded.

However, the entire ghost clan was also destroyed by him, and almost all of them were wiped out.

Ji Chen still thought that he died a worthy death. If he hadn't known that he was going to die, he would not have forced himself to death. As

a result, he didn't leave.

It was equivalent to that his main account was deleted by himself and the system gave him a dead account.

Whenever Ji Chen thought of this, he could only comfort himself with the reason of "eliminating harm for the people."

And because he died suddenly and secretly, and his body disappeared, everyone in the world, including his three disciples, thought that he was just hiding.

As for why the sword was in Xue Wuxi's hands and was sealed in the tower by him, Ji Chen had never thought about it carefully.

Now that Jiang Shengyu said this, Ji Chen finally reacted.

It turned out that the sword was found and taken away by this guy.

However, based on Ji Chen's understanding of Jiang Shengyu, he always felt that he would not do such a unnecessary thing. Ji Chen

asked him: "I broke your sword and forced you to give up the sword and practice medicine, but you went to the ghost domain to bring my sword back. What is your intention?"

Jiang Shengyu looked at his face and did not answer.

That look and eyes did not have the tenacity of wanting to win at the beginning, but only the depth that had not been seen for many years.

Ji Chen thought he was going to say something amazing like "love", but it turned out to be just four words.

"You shouldn't die."

Ji Chen thought: Do you need to tell me?

He didn't want to die either. He was just being tricked by the system.

Jiang Shengyu said again: "Originally, I thought you were just a drunkard with outstanding swordsmanship, but I didn't expect that you still had the heart to save the world."

"I took your sword back because your behavior really impressed me and I think you don't deserve to die."

Ji Chen: ...

Suddenly, it seems like I was praised by my mortal enemy. What's going on?

Except for the word "drunkard", um.

But Ji Chen is still sober.

The two of them are standing on the cliff at this moment, with rugged cliffs and abysses under their feet.

The whistling cliff wind has long lost its familiar smell, leaving only the rustling sound.

Ji Chen finally asked the question that had been lingering in his mind: "Why did Qifeng Cliff become such a horrible place now?"

Jiang Shengyu raised his hand and gently touched the bird that flew back to his shoulder. "You didn't wipe out all the ghosts."

Ji Chen understood. "So it was the descendants of the ghosts who did it? To avenge me for destroying the ghosts?"

"That's about right..." Jiang Shengyu continued, "I came here to remove the miasma and restore Qifeng Cliff to its original appearance. But even though the miasma was removed, there is still no grass growing here."

"And when I came, the bird had been corroded by the miasma to the point where only its bones were left, and it was dying. It took me a hundred years to heal it and bring it back to life."

Ji Chen finally understood the real reason why the bird was willing to recognize Jiang Shengyu as its master and let him ride on it.

It turned out that it was not just for food.

Ji Chen changed the subject and asked Jiang Shengyu with a smile: "Since you have said that my behavior impressed you, why do you still look so bitter and resentful? My disciple came to you for medicine, and you tricked him into the gourd to make medicine."

Jiang Shengyu asked back: "What do your disciple and disciple have to do with me?"

"Why not? We are good brothers. Isn't my disciple also your disciple?"

"Good... good brother?!"

Jiang Shengyu's old face flushed instantly. He had a serious look, but he lowered his head as if he was shy.

It was the first time that Ji Chen saw the other party like this.

He originally thought that Jiang Shengyu would be as serious and rigid as an old cadre, but he didn't expect that he had such a lovely side.

Ji Chen was in the mood to tease, and half-jokingly said, "Don't you want to be my brother, but my partner?"

This time, Jiang Shengyu was not only shy, but also angry.

"How dare you! I am so old, how can I have such a ridiculous idea!!"

Ji Chen thought about it and it was true. He actually lived for another five hundred years after his death, while he just closed his eyes and opened them, and five hundred years passed.

Logically speaking, he was equivalent to his ancestral elder.

It was indeed inappropriate to tease such an old and honest man.

Ji Chen had no choice but to stick out his tongue and went back to what he said before: "Then let's just be good brothers."

"Who is your brother?!"

Jiang Shengyu became even more furious: "Don't think that just because I brought your sword back and I think you still have some merits, you can be my brother!"

Ji Chen didn't expect that the other party would react so strongly to this sentence.

Still getting angry?

Sure enough, he is still narrow-minded and holds grudges!

"Okay, okay, okay." Ji Chen could only fill the hole he dug himself, and coaxed Jiang Shengyu like coaxing a child: "Whatever you say is what it is."

I don't know who is older.

Jiang Shengyu suppressed his anger and calmed down for a moment before he said, "We are not that familiar with each other yet."

"Yeah, yeah, okay, okay." Ji Chen still answered perfunctorily.

However, after he answered, Ji Chen remembered that he was poisoned by a snake and asked him, "I have told you everything you want to know, you should give me the antidote."

Jiang Shengyu said, "The snake is not poisonous."

"Then you let me get poisoned for nothing?"

"What? Do you still hope it is poisonous?"

Ji Chen was speechless.

This old thing!

Jiang Shengyu looked at Ji Chen, picked up his wrist without saying anything, and probed it in the air with two fingers. His face suddenly darkened, "Soul-eating snake?"

"Yes. You are worthy of being the ancestor of medicine. You found it out right away." After Ji Chen complimented him, he got to the point, "Can you completely cure it? "

Jiang Shengyu answered the question irrelevantly: "Who went down?"

"Who else could it be..." Ji Chen sighed softly: "It was my third disciple who hated me to the core..."

"Hate you to the core?" Jiang Shengyu let go of Ji Chen's wrist, "I don't think so."

"Why? You don't know him."

After a long pause, Jiang Shengyu slowly said: "As soon as you died, Qifeng Cliff was occupied by the descendants of the ghost clan."

"Your eldest disciple led a group of monks to the mountain to fight ghosts, and in the end they suffered heavy casualties. He was also severely corroded by the miasma and was sent back."

"Your second disciple only climbed half of the mountain, and was blocked by the miasma and stagnated. "

"Only your third disciple, who was obviously the one you disliked the most among all your disciples, fought through all the difficulties and killed all the ghosts with his life."

"When I went there later, I saw him lying on the ground among the corpses, covered in blood. There was not a piece of good meat on his body, his ribs were all broken, and his spiritual veins were all shattered."

"I knew he was going to die, so I didn't want to save him. But he was strong-willed. He spent a long time to recover his crippled body, stood up and left silently."

"However, before he left, he asked me about your whereabouts."

"I didn't tell him that you were dead, I just said... I didn't know."
