I looked at the slimy black mollusk on the ground and almost felt sick.
This thing is actually a leech, also called a leech, which lives by sucking blood.
But now it seems to be restrained, and its body is so big that it is almost as big as a small millstone.
I almost vomited just looking at it, let alone eating it.
When the strange old man saw that I was not moving, he immediately clicked his tongue and said: "This stuff is a great tonic and has medicinal effects.
I think you have insufficient energy and blood, so you must be sick.
After eating it, you will not only not be hungry, but also have medicinal effects."
The disease can also be cured.”
When I heard this, I took a deep breath.
To be honest, I even dare to eat centipedes and earthworms.
What does it mean to eat a leech?
But who dares to eat such a big leech?
I gritted my teeth and finally swung the spear.
I heard a snapping sound, and I smashed the leech to pieces with my spear, and then black mucus flowed out from its body.
The mucus smelled so fishy that I quickly covered my mouth.
The strange old man took a look at it, and then he laughed and said: "I don't even fear ghosts, but I'm afraid of eating these things.
How about I eat them and show them to you?
I live here by eating them, otherwise I would have eaten them long ago."
Turned into a real ghost."
As he said that, the strange old man walked over to the rotten leech, then reached out and grabbed a handful of black mucus, put it directly into his mouth, and started chewing it.
As soon as I saw it, I finally couldn't bear it anymore and started vomiting heavily while leaning against the stone wall.
At the end of the vomiting, he could only spit out yellow water.
As soon as I vomited, I suddenly felt dizzy, and then with a plop, I fell heavily to the ground.
Before I passed out, I heard the strange old man's chattering laughter.
"It's over, he probably wants to eat me too."
I don’t know how long it took, but I felt something soft flow into my mouth.
I was really hungry at this moment and couldn't help but swallow.
I don’t know how much soft stuff I drank, but anyway, I felt a lot fuller in my stomach, and I continued to fall asleep contentedly.
When I woke up again, I found that my illness had healed, and my body was no longer limp, but full of strength.
I immediately sat up and saw the strange old man wiping his mouth.
I didn't know what he had just eaten.
Could it be that he had eaten my flesh?
After thinking about it, I hurriedly looked around, but I didn't feel any discomfort on my body, so I felt a lot more at ease.
The strange old man looked at me and said, "You're awake.
Are you feeling better?"
When I heard this, I immediately responded: "Yes, my illness is cured.
Thank you, senior, for saving my life."
After saying that, I stood up and saluted.
The strange old man looked at me, then smiled and said: "Don't thank me.
If you want to thank, just thank the leech.
Without it, you can't live."
When I heard this, I couldn't help but become confused, and then asked in confusion: "Senior, you mean I ate it?"
The strange old man chuckled and said, "To be more precise, I chewed it up and fed it to you."
As soon as I heard this, I almost fainted.
Looking at the strange old man's face, and thinking that he chewed it up and gave it to me, I just felt uncomfortable in my stomach, and then I immediately started vomiting while holding on to the wall.

All the vomited out were Something dark.
"I bought a watch last year.
Why did I eat this?"
I held my head and shouted in pain.
But the strange old man over there laughed.
"Just eat it.
If you don't eat it, how can you have the strength to get crazy here?
Am I right?
It's better to sit down and have a good rest."
After hearing this, I finally calmed down.
It's true.
I've eaten everything, so what's the use of talking nonsense now?
I sat down opposite the old man and asked: "Old senior, I didn't know you were noble this year."
When the old man heard this, he then said mysteriously: "I must be dozens of years older than this mausoleum.
I can't remember how old I am now."
When I heard this, I immediately understood.
It seemed that the text on the stone was written by him.
In this way, the strange old man probably lived for more than two thousand years.
Two thousand years, heaven and earth, is this something that humans can do?
I looked at him, then smiled slightly and said: "Old senior, you have lived for more than two thousand years.
Could it be that you have practiced the art of immortality?"
The old man may have had no one talk to him for a long time, so when I chatted with him, his chatterbox suddenly opened up.
"Little brother, immortality is just a legend.
How can a mortal be immortal?
The reason why I can live so long is because I am not a human being."
When I heard it, I was immediately speechless.
This old man is a human being sometimes and not a human being sometimes.
He is just teasing me.
"Old senior, if you say you are not a human being, then who are you?
Don't say you are a ghost.
You cannot deceive me."
The old man then laughed and said: "I won't tease you anymore, let me tell you the truth.
I forcibly sealed my soul in my body.
In this case, I will not die.
However, this method also has a disadvantage, that is, it cannot see the sun. , otherwise you will lose your soul.”
"Senior, there is such a mysterious technique for sealing souls in this world.
Can you tell me in detail?"
The old man had nothing to do anyway, so he told me his story.
He said that he studied under Gui Guzi and practiced immortality in his early years.
Unfortunately, he was worried and difficult to practice, so he switched to the art of war.
However, he couldn't bear to see the lives of people in ruins, so he switched to the art of vertical and horizontal.
Unfortunately, he never met a wise king in this world, so he finally started to study medicine. , Xuan Hu Ji Shi also lasted until his old age.
At this time, the First Emperor ordered the construction of a mausoleum.
For a time, the people were filled with dissatisfaction and their lives were in dire straits.
When he learned that the First Emperor wanted to use 3,000 armors and thousands of people to bury them together, he decided to become one of them.

During the days in the mausoleum, he placed several seals in succession to confine the evil spirits in the mausoleum.
However, he was worried that the evil spirits would break out of the seals and all his previous efforts would be wasted, so he simply became a tombkeeper in the mausoleum.
Unexpectedly, this defense lasted for two thousand years.
Because he had practiced the art of cultivating immortals, he was able to survive the first days, but human lifespan is ultimately limited.
He didn't want his soul to fly away from his body like this.
In that case, there would be no one to guard the tomb.
Finally, he changed his mind and sealed the meridians in his body with silver needles, so that his soul could not leave.
In this way, he lived for more than two thousand years, eating leeches in the tomb as food every day.
Although he was not like a human being or a ghost like a ghost, at least he fulfilled his promise and was still guarding the imperial mausoleum.
After knowing this, I have special respect for the old man.
A person who can dedicate everything to the world and endure loneliness is the existence that human beings should be most grateful for.
It's a pity that the old man didn't tell me his name.
He said that he was ashamed of the master who taught him his skills, so he shouldn't tarnish the reputation of the successor of Guigu.
I looked at the old man, and then sighed softly: "Old senior, I thank you on behalf of all the people in the world."
After saying that, I knelt down on my knees and kowtowed three times to him.
When the old man saw this, tears actually flowed from his turbid eyes.
I know that this is the first time he has been recognized by others, and I can understand this feeling.
In the next few days, I kept chatting with the old man and told him a lot about modern things.
The old man liked to listen very much.
He was surprised every time when I talked about airplanes, cannons, and atomic bombs.
He was also surprised when I talked about the changes of the times and how generations have changed The emperor burst into tears as soon as he met the people.
On this day, he went behind Shimen again and caught a leech.
This time, I didn’t refuse because I had to survive these three months.
I killed the leech, closed my eyes, and after a few bites, I got used to the taste.
The master said that he hopes I can see something special when I leave here.
For this reason, I had to start practicing.
The old man just watched quietly without saying a word.
It wasn't until a month later that the old man suddenly said to me: "Your cultivation method is too slow.
If you practice his Guigu Tao method, your cultivation will be further improved."
I was naturally overjoyed when I heard this, but is there really a free lunch in the world?
"Senior, just tell me what you need me to do."
When the old man heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Actually, it's very simple.
I just want you to become my apprentice.
In that way, my Guigu technique can be passed down.
How about" I heard this, although I was willing in my heart, but after all, I am a descendant of the ghost hunter, how can I join someone else's sect?
"Old senior, I really want to learn the secret skills of Guigu from you, but I have already become someone else's disciple.
If I become your disciple again, wouldn't I be ashamed of my disciple?
I understand your kindness.
But I'm sorry. , I can’t agree.”
The old man just looked at me quietly, and finally laughed and said: "You are so affectionate, loyal, and filial.
I like people like you.
That's all, it doesn't matter if you don't become my disciple in Guigu.
I can still teach you how to practice. " When I heard this, I was naturally ecstatic.
Everyone in the world knows the name of Guigu.
If you can learn the magical power of Guigu and combine it with my ghost-catching skills in the future, I believe that you can go one step closer to rushing to the underworld and rescuing Ling'er. .

The art of Ghost Valley lies in surprise.
Don't follow the rules in everything, and focus on results.
As the saying goes, you can capture the essence of Guigu by trying everything you can.
The human body has eight extraordinary meridians, and by opening the Ren and Du meridians, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be absorbed.
And because it is done step by step, the pace of practice is slow.
Many people have been practicing for hundreds of years, and some finally become feathers and fly into the sky, while many more cannot escape life and death and are reincarnated again.
Although the strange old man can't fly into the sky, he can make me improve my skills for several years overnight.
Although it is somewhat counterproductive, the short-term effect is extremely obvious.
At this time, I was focused on practicing and just hoped to rescue Ling'er as soon as possible, so I didn't care about that.
In normal practice, the true energy travels through the meridians throughout the body.
The method the old man taught me was the opposite.
Not only does it allow the true energy to be reversed, but it does not need to be condensed in the Dantian, but gathered on several major acupuncture points throughout the body.
In this way, using Zhen Qi will not only activate it very quickly, but also make it easier to recover.
I have been following this lesson from the old man for more than a month, and the three-month period is almost here.
On this day, I finished practicing and walked around bored, while the old man went to catch leeches again.
Because I wanted to stretch my muscles, I accidentally stepped on the bluestone on the ground and cracked it.
Through the gap in the bluestone slab, I discovered a skeleton.
Seeing this, I immediately moved the broken stone slab away.
At this moment, I saw a line of characters.
This character was also in official script.
It seemed that it was written by the skeleton when he was dying.
It reads: "The scum of the Mohist family have harmed my ghost valley.
If future generations enter this place, do not practice their skills.
If they are eaten by spirits, they will become devil kings."
When I saw this, my heart trembled.
What on earth is going on?
