"I can't see, but are you a man or a ghost?" Asked the skeleton.
"People, of course! You Why do you still talk? " Shen Lang asked nervously.
When people ask questions to ghosts, Shen Lang always feels a little abnormal, but he is really curious. He has never met such a strange thing.
"Because I'm not an ordinary ghost." Said the skeleton.
"And what are you?" Shen Lang is a little confused.
"To be exact, I should be a puppet." The skeleton sighed.
"Puppet?" Shen Lang was even more surprised and asked, "Why are you..."
The skeleton said: "hum, boy, we are predestined to see you break into here. I'll tell you a story."
"Please Go ahead Shen Lang's eyelids jumped and said immediately.
The skeleton tells the story.
"More than two thousand years ago, there was a Huajing martial arts practitioner who got an ancient book about puppet art by chance. From then on, he was out of control and devoted his whole life to the study of puppet art."
"But the time is short, knowing that he can't break through the void, he is not willing to wait for death to come. Although people as long as the three souls and six spirits are immortal, they can be reincarnated after death. But for him, even if there is an afterlife, without the memory and emotion of this life, it is not himself! In the next life, he may become an extraordinary useless man
"He spent the rest of his life 50 years studying ways to get the spirit of Wu Xiu out of his body and attach it to puppets. For this reason, he made countless puppets in human form, and tried his best to do so... " Said the skeleton, not in a hurry.
Shen Lang was a little surprised when he said that the corpse on the island was probably the product of this man's puppet skill.
"Seeing the time of death getting closer and closer, he became more and more anxious, and finally decided that he would not hesitate to give up most of his accomplishments in order to send his spirit to the puppet. He tried his best to make a tall, handsome, domineering and powerful puppet, trying to make that puppet into his new body. " Skull sneered.
"Did you succeed in the end?" Shen Lang asked.
"Success! If I succeed, can I be like this? " The skeleton made a rude remark. The "he" in his mouth was himself.
After calming down his mood, the skeleton cried, "at the last moment of my death, I tried to escape from the body with secret methods, trying to attach it to the most perfect puppet body. Sending is successful, but the body can't move except talking! As you can see, the poisonous insects here have already gnawed away the body of my puppet. There is only one skeleton left. "
Without waiting for Shen Lang to speak, the skeleton sighed to himself: "over the years, I have finally figured out a truth."
"What's the reason?" Shen Lang asked.
"People, after all, can't go against the weather. When they die, they will die. No matter what method they use, they can't get rid of death. Unless we can constantly break through the limit, there may be a glimmer of hope of immortality. " Exclaimed the skeleton.
"You can't move, but you're immortal now." Shen Lang couldn't help saying. In his eyes, the work of a skeleton can be regarded as a miracle.
"You are so naive, I am not immortal. Lao Tzu has been here for countless years, and his soul is actually weakening day by day. Now, I don't have a few years to live. And as soon as my soul is gone, that is, all the real spirits will die, and I will never be able to reincarnate again. " Said the skeleton.
Shen Lang couldn't help sighing that he would die like this.
"Master, I'm curious about something. Do you think you are a master of transformation and practiced in the secular world 2000 years ago? " Shen Lang couldn't help asking.
"No, I was born in a forest in Tianshan." Said the skeleton.
Shen Lang's eyes brightened, and he asked curiously, "isn't it said that the elites can't cross the border of Kunlun mountain? How did you come to this world? "
"Well, it's too long. Thousands of years ago, not to mention the realm of experts, even the virtual realm of martial arts can cross the border. It may be because the transmission power of the Kunlun Mountain border is weakening. One day, it will be completely closed and no one can cross it. " Said the skeleton.
Shen Lang was surprised. There was such a thing.
It's no wonder that people in Misty Island heard that the first generation master of Tianji sect was a master of virtual realm. He probably came to the world before the Kunlun Mountain border was weak.
"Boy, what are your accomplishments?" Asked the skeleton suddenly.
"In the later period of asking questions." Shen Lang replied.
The skeleton seemed surprised and went on to ask, "how old are you?"
"23 years old." Shen Lang continued to reply.
"What!" At the age of 23, he had the cultivation in the later period of the world. He was a little surprised by this talent.
"Boy, for the sake of your cleverness, please take me as a teacher." The skeleton said slowly.
"I have a master. I don't want to worship again." Shen Lang shrugged.
"Cough I was an expert at the later stage of the transformation. As my apprentice, I can pass on your wonderful puppet skills. " Said the skeleton at once.Shen Lang shook his head: "I'm not interested in puppet art."
The skeleton was a little disappointed and sighed, "well, since you don't want to, I don't want to. In fact, after so many years, I have forgotten all the martial arts skills except puppet skill. However, boy, you are more unlucky. The things in my cave have been emptied by those useless apprentices
Shen Lang pointed to the mirror beside the jade platform and asked, "what is that mirror?"
"This is the jade sun mirror." Said the skeleton.
"Jade mirror? What's the use of it? " Shen Lang asked curiously.
"No use." Skeleton light way.
Shen Lang was speechless. It was no use. He took such a mysterious name and made it seem to be very powerful.
"Hum, the useful things have been taken away by my useless apprentices for a long time. Can they still stay here? But this mirror is useless, but it has a function. " The skeleton added.
"What function?" Shen Lang immediately asked.
"This place can ward off evil spirits and remove filth, and it has a great effect on restraining ghosts and things." Said the skeleton.
Shen Lang scratched his head and asked, "what is the ghost?"
"I don't know what it is." Said the skeleton.
“……” Shen Lang was completely speechless.
"Maybe, maybe, something about ghosts? Ghosts are very afraid of this mirror, but ghosts are different from ghosts. I picked it up in a secret place. Maybe it has some other magical effects. You can take it back and study it later. " The skeleton added.
"All right." Shen Lang is a little disappointed. It seems that there is nothing to gain.
However, Shen Lang still took this bronze mirror into his purse.
