Chapter 2685 The Story of the Man in White
Hearing this, the man in white's face changed and he looked towards Gu Ning with a cold gaze. It was just because Gu Ning was blocked by Leng Shaoting that he didn't see Gu Ning.
"How did you know?" the man in white asked solemnly, his anger on the verge of exploding.
The man in white subconsciously suspected that the other party had gone in to take a look, but he had not left. If the other party had come, he would have known.
But what is the reason?
After Gu Ning asked this question, he knew that he shouldn't say this because he would have to explain, and the explanation would expose his secret. If he didn't tell the truth, there would be no other reason to explain it.
The main thing is that Gu Ning told us such specific things about what happened in the ice coffin.
But the question had already been asked, and there was no way to take it back, so I just said it directly: "Because I have X-ray vision, otherwise how do you think we got to this cave?"
It doesn't matter if I tell this secret to the man in white, because even if I tell him the secret, he may not spread it, and even if he does, no one may believe it.
Hearing this, the man in white was shocked. X-ray vision? Although it was the first time he heard of such a thing, he knew what X-ray vision meant from the text. It simply meant that the other person's eyes could penetrate all obstacles and see what was blocked.
However, despite this, the other party snooped into his territory without his consent, which made the man in white feel that his privacy was violated, so he was angry.
Of course Gu Ning knew, so before the man in white got angry, Gu Ning apologized first: "I'm sorry for snooping into the cave privately, but before that, the enemy and friend are unknown, so I naturally need to understand it first, and I hope you can understand."
When Gu Ning was apologizing, he came out from behind Leng Shaoting and looked at the man in white with a sincere look.
In fact, when Gu Ning and the man in white looked at each other, she had some ulterior motives in her eyes. Because she looked similar to the woman the man loved, she hoped that the man would calm down after seeing this similar face.
Although she didn't know what happened between the man in white and his beloved woman, the fact that he had been guarding here for a thousand years was enough to prove his infatuation. So, she didn't want to disrupt his peace because of these things, that is, she didn't want to conflict with the man in white again.
Seeing Gu Ning's face that looked extremely similar to the woman he loved, the man in white immediately calmed down.
His gaze stayed on Gu Ning's face for a few seconds before leaving. Although she looked very similar to Xin'er, she was not Xin'er after all. Since she was not Xin'er, he could not look at her for too long.
"Yes, I'm talking about the woman in the ice coffin." The man in white responded, and then he couldn't help but talk about their story: "Xin'er was originally a disciple of a cultivation sect, and I was a disciple of the demon clan. Once there was a war between the sect and the demon clan, Xin'er was injured in the war, so I saved her and then secretly escaped. After a period of getting along, we fell in love with each other, and then we were together."
"We knew that our being together would be opposed by Xin'er's master, because good and evil cannot coexist. However, although I was born in the demon world, I have never hurt innocent people. Even when the righteous and the demon world were at war, I did not take action. In order to avoid being discovered by Xin'er's master, we hid our identities, lived in seclusion in the mountains, and led an ordinary life. But unfortunately, we were discovered by Xin'er's master later. They never asked about the process, the reason, or whether they were right or wrong. They just attacked me directly, just because I was an evil demon..."
"Hahahaha! They claim to be upright people, but their hands are filled with blood. As for me, a person from the devil's way, I have never hurt any innocent person. Is it my fault that I was born in the devil's way? Even if I don't do bad things, do I deserve to die?"
At this point, the man in white became a little excited.
"Xin'er and I kept running away and finally got here, but Xin'er was seriously injured while saving me. So she died just a few days after arriving here. So I put her in an ice coffin in this cave. This way, Xin'er's body will remain intact and we can stay together forever." said the man in white.
Hearing what the man in white said, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting felt very sympathetic. They never thought that the so-called upright people were that good.
Take people today for example. They wear clothes that serve others, but they engage in corruption, bribery, and oppression of the people. These people are equally hateful.
After the man in white finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much. However, he had been holding it in for a long time and had no place to express it, so he could not hold it in any longer.
"I have said everything I should say. Do you have anything else to ask? If not, please go back!" said the man in white.
"I want to ask, why did you turn into ashes as soon as you left this cave?" Gu Ning asked. Because the man in white only told him the result but not the reason, Gu Ning felt it was necessary to ask clearly.
"Because Xin'er's master found us in this cave, and seeing his feelings for Xin'er, he also felt some sympathy. So, he let me stay with Xin'er all the time, but in order to prevent me from going out and harming others, he sealed my soul in this cave. Once I leave the cave, my body will be separated from my soul and I will not be able to survive." said the man in white.
Even though Xin'er's master did not kill him and let him stay with Xin'er forever, he did not feel any gratitude, because if it were not for them, Xin'er would not have died.
seal?
Leng Shaoting immediately used his spiritual sense to observe and indeed detected the aura of talismans.
Although Leng Shaoting was only a layman when it came to talismans, he had the help of Shangguan Yang, an expert. He had also come into contact with talismans many times, so he could more or less feel the aura of talismans, but he just couldn't tell what kind of talisman it was.
I didn't open my spiritual sense just now, so I didn't feel it. Now that I have specially detected it, I can feel it.
In this way, Leng Shaoting believed the man in white.
"In that case, we won't bother you anymore." Leng Shaoting said, then took Gu Ning's hand and left.
Outside, it was getting dark, but not completely black yet.
Originally everyone thought that Leng Hao Shao Ting and Gu Ning would come out soon, probably in no more than half an hour, but now it has been an hour and they still haven't come out, so everyone can't help but worry whether something happened to them.
Still, only Xu Jingchen and Zhan Zhiyin remained relatively calm. They knew that they had encountered a situation, but they believed that it would not be them who would be in trouble.
