I was also shocked, because I always thought that the culprit of this incident was Tan Qingshan.

But after hearing what Master said, it was obvious that there was someone else behind the scenes.

"You don't have to look at me like that. I don't know who asked you to do this, but I know very well that your meager skills will never make such a big splash." Master lit a pack of cigarettes.

.

Tan Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Uncle, I have good eyesight. I have no choice but to do this. I have never even seen the face of the Archmage."

"The purpose of burying her in the Sansha Jedi is to turn her into a Red Demon, and then let her entangle Gu Zhou until death, so as to achieve your ulterior secret."

Master seems to know better than Tan Qingshan.

"Are you the one who sealed the soul of Gu Weiqing's son in the black cat?" I asked aloud.

Tan Qingshan shook his head and said: "You think too highly of me. I don't know how to seal the soul. They did bring his son's body over and beg me."

"But I could see that the child was destined to die young, and there was nothing I could do. Later, the Archmage asked me to tell them that there was a way to save them, but the way was to exchange your life for that child's life." Tan Qingshan looked at it.

I glanced at him and saw that I was indifferent, so he added, "I guess my uncle has told you how to do it, but it is obviously impossible to succeed. The soul-sealing technique will only turn him into a monster that does not recognize any relatives and has neither humans nor ghosts."

When a black cat seals its soul, it will only turn into a ghost and will never be resurrected.

"They love their son very much. As long as they heard that there is a way to save the child, they are willing to sacrifice the lives of your family of three. That's why they sealed the child's soul in the black cat using the soul sealing technique."

"When you were twelve years old, it was your first big day, and it was also the time when your vitality was at its weakest. At that time, we had already taken away half of your soul, but later on, you were disturbed by your uncle."

Tan Qingshan's words were exactly the same as what Master said. I felt mixed emotions in my heart. I didn't know whether I was happy or worried.

Gu Weiqing and his wife were also taken advantage of. From the beginning to the end, Tan Qingshan had no intention of helping them resurrect their son. It was impossible to change their fate against the odds.

"The Great Master said that he couldn't afford to offend Ma Zhengtong of Baiyunguan, so he didn't continue. Besides, somehow, the local city god actually found out about it, which caused me to lose ten years of my life." Tan Qingshan looked excited,

It seems quite aggrieved.

I said in my heart that you deserve it. Who asked you to engage in such crooked ways?

"That's all I know. The matters involving Liu Qian'er and Gu Zhou were all personally handled by the Archmage. I don't know anything."

Listening to his narration, I felt like I understood a little bit, but the confusion in my heart did not diminish.

"Do you know what the purpose of this great mage you are talking about is?" The master knocked on his pipe, his face as heavy as water.

Tan Qingshan was silent for a moment, shook his head and said: "The Archmage is extremely mysterious in what he does. He has never told me what he is going to do. I only know that he seems to be looking for something in Ligou Village. He needs twelve people with special fates to arrange the secrets."

Array."

"The Twelve Immortals Formation!" Master exclaimed, and then said: "I really don't know the heights of the world, but I dare to have such crooked thoughts, could it be..."

I was shocked by Master, and Master’s reaction was too intense.

"I don't know. I have told you all the things I did for him. It was not me but your parents who wanted to harm you, Gu Zhou. But they also suffered retribution. You are really self-denial in your life."

"Even now, you are still trying to excuse the Archmage you are talking about. It's really stupid. If the Archmage hadn't made up all kinds of lies to deceive Gu Weiqing and his wife, they would never have been so cruel to Gu Zhou and wanted to harm him.

There has always been only the Archmage." The master looked at him with contempt.

I also heard the implication of Master's words, that is, don't blame Gu Weiqing and his wife, because they are also poor people.

"Uncle, I have a question to ask you." Tan Qingshan smiled and said to himself: "Although Gu Zhou's horoscope can be used in the Hehe technique, why can't I deduce his cause and effect?

?”

The master sneered twice, "You dare to speculate on Gu Zhou's cause and effect? ​​Gu Zhou's fate is covered by a secret. You should know the consequences of spying on the secret."

Tan Qingshan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sighed: "Oh, I'm so confused now."

Master ignored Tan Qingshan and only said: "If you do evil, you will die. Although you are not the mastermind, you have done a lot of bad things. You should go to the underworld to be punished after your death."

After saying that, Master asked him and me to leave Tan Qingshan's home.

We had just walked out three hundred meters when we saw Tan Qingshan's small villa burst into flames.

Master asked me to stay with him in the town for one night and then return to the village tomorrow.

The next morning, nearby residents were saying that Tan Duangong's house had been burned down yesterday. The house was burned down, and even Tan Duangong himself was reduced to black charcoal.

I asked Master: "Is Tan Qingshan really dead?"

"Not only did he die, his soul was also destroyed." The master said calmly.

My neck felt cold when I heard this. This was too cruel. The most heinous crime for ordinary people is to kill people, but Tan Qingshan's soul was actually destroyed.

"Are his words credible?" I asked again. According to my guess, Tan Qingshan was probably killed by the great mage in his mouth.

"It should be true, the mastermind of all this is the Archmage."

The Archmage is so terrifying. Tan Qingshan has been working for him for so many years, and he kills him whenever he wants.

Maybe it was useless for him to abandon his son, so he could only let his soul fly away.

When I returned to the village, I told my master that I wanted to bury Gu Weiqing and my fourth uncle's family in the cemetery at the west end of the village.

Master said, don’t you remember your adoptive parents?

I grinned and said, "I hated it at first, but when I knew the whole story, I stopped hating it, because they and their wife were also poor people being taken advantage of. Anyway, they still raised me for more than 20 years."

Year."

"Letting them rest in peace can be regarded as a small reward for my kindness in raising them."

The master nodded with some relief and said that you are quite benevolent and righteous, and the old Taoist was indeed right about you.

Master found the donkey cart from last time and helped me bury my adoptive parents, my wife and my fourth uncle's family in the cemetery.

It took me half a day to finish handling their affairs. Master said leisurely: "When you come, you are happy and when you go, you are sad. It is better to just walk in this world for a while, not to come or to go, and to be neither happy nor sad."

A few old crows on the dead branches flew away in fright.
