Zhang Meng patted Xu Ran on the back and complained: "It's nothing to eat raw meat. You have to be glad that they have no malicious intentions, otherwise you and I will not be able to meet like this...

This is not a place to speak, I will send you down the mountain now."

"Okay, let's go together..."

I didn't dare to ask how Zhang Meng became a ghost. Seeing him say this, Xu Ran pretended to be a little less fear and secretly looked at the mountain god standing not far away.

There was an extra torch on the other hand of the mountain god at some point, reflecting that he was wearing sleeveless thick armor, lined with black robe, big stick with exaggerated barbs, and a huge mace.

But the fire was beating close to him, but it still couldn't light up his face.

"Who is that?"

This sentence is for the mountain god.

"Don't ask, go quickly, the mountain is not clean!"

Zhang Meng pushed Xu Ran and signaled him to leave first. He walked to the mountain god by himself and bowed respectfully and said, "Sir, I will send my friend down the mountain and come back, and I will never delay it."

The mountain god handed him the torch and said coldly: "Don't forget your promise, be my ghost slave for a hundred years, the torch will be extinguished and come back immediately."

Zhang Meng respectfully took the torch and strode to Xu Ran.

Xu Ran clearly heard the conversation between the two, "Zhang Meng, is that man really a mountain god? How could you know the mountain god?"

"Don't ask! Go quickly!"

Zhang Meng, who is usually a chatterbox, said nothing at this moment. He held up the torch and pulled Xu Ran to run down the mountain.

Xu Ran staggered behind him, and the torch in front emitted a light blue flame. The flame was not big, but it could illuminate a few feet in a radius.

And no matter how the mountain wind blows or how they run quickly, the flames are as steady as old dogs, unbiased and will not flicker and disappear.

Being within the torch light, Xu Ran felt that the weather in July was supposed to be hot, but the air was as cold as late autumn.

Something is wrong...

The torch of the mountain god is indeed very evil!

Xu Ran said anxiously: "Why did the mountain god help us? What does the ghost slave mean when he was talking about?"

Zhang Meng still didn't say anything. He was so powerful that he almost dragged Xu Ran to run wildly.

The glory of the torch seemed to have a mysterious power to expel. The weeds and trees in the mountains automatically retreated to both sides with wisdom, and even the thousands of gullies between the mountains became flat.

Xu Ran felt that the wind was coming from his ears, and he almost strided straight towards the bottom of the mountain in a straight line.

The questions in my heart were not answered.

With the illumination of the torch and the running under his feet was extremely stable, Xu Ran gradually calmed down.

Suddenly I remembered that there was an item [View] next to the game monster generated in the system. I thought about it and the interface of [Little Devil and Wild Monster] appeared in my mind.

Select View.

Another Zhang Meng appeared in front of him, except that his feet were suspended on the ground and there were red blood strips on his head, which was no different from Zhang Meng himself.

Next to the red blood bar, there is a small number "31" representing his level, which are green and gold fonts respectively.

When Xu Ran's attention fell on the [Explanation], scenes appeared in his mind.

On a hot afternoon, Zhang Meng and Xu Ran were patrolling the streets routinely. Suddenly, they heard the call of catching thieves. The two of them followed the sounds one after another...

It was almost dusk and the thief had nowhere to escape, so he plunged into the dense forest of Taohua Ridge. The two of them chased after him without hesitation...

The surroundings were completely dark, and the thief running ahead suddenly stopped running, poking around like a tree stump.

Just when they thought the other party was exhausted and were about to catch the thief, the thief turned around and ran towards them. As soon as they ran a few steps, they were knocked down by a ball of dark shadows that rushed out of the thorn.

The black shadow roared like a beast to bite the prey, and the little thief screamed twice, and then it stopped abruptly.

Xu Ran and Zhang Meng in the picture were shocked.

It was not until a bloody arm that had just been torn off and almost hit Zhang Meng's face that he turned pale and laughed, "Idiot Xu Ran, why don't you run away quickly?"

The two people ran away like lifelessly, their clothes were scraped out of the branches, and blood was oozing from under the opening. Suddenly, the wind was blew behind them, and the smell of beasts was filled with the air...

A huge black shadow pounced on it and knocked the two of them down at the same time. Strangely, a soft white light shield burst out from Xu Ran's body, protecting him inside. The black shadow seemed to be a little afraid of the white light, picked up Zhang Meng and ran away...

The picture switched to another place, Zhang Meng knelt in front of the mountain god with an illusion, begging: "Please take me to save Xu Ran, I have seen with my own eyes that he is not dead yet... I would like to be a ghost slave for the adult for a hundred years."

Then the picture returns to Zhang Meng in the system and adds some illustrative text.

[Explanation: The ghost slave Zhang Meng, whose long-cherished wish has not yet been fulfilled, his unjust soul will not disperse, he will sell himself as a slave, and he will be protected by the mountain god, level 1.]

After exiting the system, Xu Ran looked at Zhang Meng, who was holding the torch and holding him to run, feeling mixed feelings.

He died and sold his soul. He would rather be a ghost slave for a hundred years than protect himself and go down the mountain safely...

This is the friendship that has been together since childhood, playing barely!

Xu Ran's eyes couldn't help but feel wet.

Because of his good brother Zhang Meng, it seems that he may have been saved, otherwise he would not have come to Taohualing!

Another question appeared in Xu Ran's heart.

When the black shadow pounced on it, what was the soft white light coming from the body of the previous body?

Do you have a magic weapon that can automatically protect the master?

Xu Ran repeatedly groped with his other hand on his body, but he didn't find anything unusual.

...

I didn’t have much effort, and the mountain under my feet had really become smoother, and I could see the sparse lights of the village from afar.

Zhang Meng stopped, looked at Xu Ran for a few times, and said, "Xu Ran, I can only send it here. Going further forward, I will leave the territory of Taohualing, which is Wanxi Town where we used to live."

"Why don't you go back with me?"

Xu Ran's voice was a little choked. He couldn't pretend anymore. If he continued to pretend to be confused by Zhang Meng, his conscience would hurt like a dog.

Fortunately, Zhang Meng confessed, he sighed and said, "We run all the way, you should have noticed an abnormality."

Xu Ran said anxiously: "Why...you do this?"

"Oh," Zhang Meng sighed again, "I have been eaten by the demonized black bear. Now I am just an obsessed soul. Because I can't let go of my mother and my sister, my soul can't dissipate and condense.

Fortunately, I met the mountain god and begged him, so he allowed me to take you down the mountain. I need your promise to save you, and take care of my elderly mother and unmarried sister on my behalf.

Xu Ran, can you promise me? I will support my mother in old age and send off my life, and help my sister find a good family. It would be even better if you could marry her. I know that she always has you in her heart..."

As expected, it is exactly in line with the picture seen in the system.

"Brother Meng, don't worry, aunt is my biological mother, and Yun'er is my biological sister."

After Xu Ran learned the truth, his surroundings seemed to be safe, and his whole body collapsed. He felt sad for a moment and didn't know what to say.

He twitched his nose and said, "Since there are demons in this world, there will be gods and immortals. Maybe people can be resurrected by death. Tell me, is there any way to save you? Or we go and ask the mountain god for help. Since he is a god, he must have the ability to let you..."

When Zhang Meng heard that Xu Ran did not promise to marry his sister, his eyes dimmed, "It's useless. Lord Shan Shen has already made mercy. I will be his entourage for a hundred years. If we have the chance, we will see each other again. Besides, my body has been eaten by the bear demon, and only the left arm is left, so it is impossible to resurrect..."

Suddenly, the torch in Zhang Meng's hand flashed a few times and went out.

He said nervously: "The Mountain God is urging me to go back. Remember not to avenge me. Ordinary people are definitely not the opponent of the demon bear. I have to leave..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Meng's body and the extinguished torch became fainter and fainter like an illusion, and was pulled by a huge force and quickly retreated into the darkness on the mountain.

His mouth opened and closed quickly, as if he was reminding Xu Ran, but he could not make any sound until his figure completely disappeared.

Only half of the broken and blood-lost pale arm was left, and it fell to the ground with a bang.

"Zhang Meng!"

Xu Ran was stunned for a moment, knelt in front of his broken arm, and kowtowed four heavily.
Chapter completed!
