The three monsters turned their backs to the treasure box and faced the outside world with their teeth and claws bared, as if they were guarding the treasure box from being taken away.
According to rumors, there are actually four magical beasts and a dream eater, which Tang Ling is very familiar with.
It's Xiao Hei.
Maybe it's because Xiao Hei doesn't have a fixed shape, so he placed an empty seat.
Speaking of which, the Nangong family’s prison city doesn’t seem to have many animals with orthodox images.
Tang Ling thought of the previous mechanical snake-like beasts and mirages, and now there are miniature statues of these four monsters.
A complete magic nest.
"Nangong Ling is not my brother."
Nangong Xun's voice pulled Tang Ling back.
At this time, Nangong Xun seemed to be much calmer than when he and Xiao Hei were separated a thousand years ago, and his demeanor was obviously more calm.
Tang Ling couldn't help but think of Xiao Hei.
Is it possible that people who live a long time are so "calm"?
However, there are also people who become more frizzy as they live more.
Nangong Ling was furious when he heard this, "Nan... Nangong Xun is not my brother either!"
Because Nangong Ling's soul was in the soul-calming flag, no one could see his expression, but Tang Ling seemed to be able to see his excited expression from his increasingly louder voice.
Tang Ling couldn't help but feel sad.
A thousand years ago, Nangong Ling who was still alive didn't seem to be like this, right?
How could he become like this?
"I don't have a brother who likes to hide!" Nangong Ling's tone was a bit angry.
"It makes no sense. Ghosts are nothing compared to humans." Nangong Xun said, "I don't like to bask in the sun, why not find a body to hide in?"
Generally speaking, ghost cultivators are indeed afraid of the sun. Those like Nangong Xun who have practiced for thousands of years have long been able to move normally in the sunlight.
It’s just that too much sun is still harmful to your cultivation.
Therefore, ordinary ghost cultivators mostly lie down during the day and emerge at night.
"Aren't you the same?" Nangong Xun paused, glanced at him, and said coldly, "And I'm not as cruel as you, killing donkeys and crossing rivers to destroy bridges!"
Those who said this were clearly Li Xue and Mr. Storyteller and others.
"I did that to hide the demonic energy in my body. Do you think it would be easy for me to run away from Fengdu? How many black crows are chasing me behind me!"
"You killed more than one person," Nangong Xun said coldly.
"I have no possession experience. What can I do if I have one child and one child?" Nangong Ling said, "I'm not like you. I've been living outside for thousands of years. I can possess anyone I want!"
Nangong Ling was furious, "We suffered in Fengdu, but it's better for you. You've been hiding in Zhenchao Pass for a thousand years, why are you willing to let go now?"
"Come out? Didn't you call me out?" Nangong Xun snorted coldly, "The shouting was so heartbreaking, like a cat meowing in spring, I heard it even when I was listening to books and drinking tea in Yunlaiju."
"You!" Nangong Ling was so angry that she was speechless for a moment.
"What do you want from me?" Nangong Xun then frowned.
"Why can't I come to you?" Nangong Ling immediately started to say in a rogue tone again.
"I thought you would be afraid of seeing me." Nangong Xun looked at him coldly and sighed, "You are really shameless."
"I'm shameless?!" Nangong Ling's voice rose again, and Tang Ling felt that it was about to break.
"You have really changed." Nangong Xun shook his head, "If you were like this a thousand years ago, I wouldn't be so surprised."
"Why are you surprised?" Nangong Ling asked subconsciously.
"What did you say?" Nangong Xun's voice was cold and emotionless as he said, "I'm surprised that it turns out that you are the real treasonous person who had an affair with Zhao Guo! I'm surprised that the younger brother I love the most in my family, who fought side by side with me on the battlefield, turned out to be...
All the sins were framed on me! I’m surprised that thousands of people in the Nangong family were all executed because of you! I’m surprised that you still have the nerve to come here now...call me out?"
Since Nangong Xun appeared, the rare voice was excited for a while.
In contrast, Nangong Ling was obviously silent.
No one dared to express their anger, except for Tang Ling, who was obviously digesting the matter.
"Dear little brother, I never thought until my death that you would be the one who wiped out the Nangong family." Nangong Xun's voice gradually calmed down.
The deathly calmness makes people more and more afraid of the endless murderous intention and hatred hidden in it.
"Did...Xiao Hei tell you?"
After a long time, Nangong Ling said, "I should have guessed that the black cat that was following you back then was obviously very similar to Xiao Hei, but it ignored me, so I thought it was just a resemblance..."
"
"It did tell me about Xiao Hei and you after I became a ghost." Nangong Xun said, "But it never revealed anything about you being the culprit. There were many things that it only learned about later.
.”
"Its memory is not very good, as you know." Nangong Xun said, "This matter has nothing to do with Xiao Hei, so don't get involved at will."
"You mean... after you died, Xiao Hei still went to see you?" Nangong Ling said suddenly.
"Before I died, it also came here." Nangong Xun said expressionlessly, "I suffered too much pain before I died, and after my death my soul was exposed to the sun for a long time and became very unstable. It was all because of its help."
Hearing this, Nangong Ling suddenly laughed like crazy, "Did you see it? They all like you! You are smart and talented, and you can do anything. Father likes you, and Xiao Hei also likes you! I
No matter how hard I try, I can't get everything I want!"
Finally, he laughed until his voice became hoarse, then he lowered his voice and said in a hoarse voice, "It didn't even look at me until I died."
Tang Ling's mood was very complicated.
She didn't know that in Nangong Ling's heart, she would complain about Xiao Hei in this regard.
"Xiao Hei still had amnesia at that time." Nangong Xun frowned, "I told you, don't involve Xiao Hei casually in the affairs between us."
"Not involved at will?" Nangong Ling's voice became louder again, "It wants to stay out of the matter? No way! It had already been entangled in these causes and effects when it rescued you at the Zhaoguo Inn!"
"Inn?" Nangong Xun was a little confused about this, but he immediately remembered, "You are talking about the first time we met? How do you know?"
"Humph, I also deduced it after I died. Who else could save you at that time? Who knew that I would bring people to catch you and lead you out of the inn?" Nangong Ling's voice sounded like a smile, "
Only Xiao Hei! Only the cat from the refugee camp whose body was borrowed by Xiao Hei! It has been in my body for so long! It knows everything about me!"
Nangong Xun finally understood where the first of the three rescues promised by Xiao Hei was.
But Nangong Ling's voice became more and more aggrieved, "Look, look! It's like this! It's so annoying! It's obviously involved in so many things and has seen them all, but it always acts like it wants to stay out of it.
Look! It does what it says! Not at all! It lies! It doesn’t ignore it! But it pretends not to care about anything! Why! Why does it? And you! Why do you all?
?Obviously these... none of these are my fault! One of you has been missing for a thousand years with the excuse of amnesia, and the other has been hiding in Zhenchao Pass for a thousand years claiming that he is not wrong! You are all fine now, why is it only me——! "
Nangong Ling's voice became even hoarse, as if she wanted to express all the grievances she had suffered over the past thousand years.
"Why can't I forget it and there will be no pain? How can I think that I am not wrong and there will be no pain? Why is it that I am the only one trapped by obsession -!"
