Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Ghost encounter?"

"Young man, what kind of nonsense are you spouting? This humble monk is no ordinary wandering ghost..."

The dog-headed stone statue remained standing motionless, its mouth slightly open, as if speechless.

Moreover, the other party was shrouded in an invisible barrier that was difficult to detect with the naked eye, which also completely isolated the surrounding corpse poison and miasma, which was quite strange!

"You, you, you, who are you...!"

Lu Feng remained hesitant, his face filled with astonishment.

"Young man, I know you're full of questions right now, but instead of asking about my origins, you should take care of the little girl beside you first..."

Faced with Lu Feng's astonished gaze, the dog-headed statue merely grinned, its tone still playful.

However, although it can speak human language, it cannot move its body. It seems that the entire stone statue is where it is rooted, which is quite surprising.

"Oh, right, Miss Wan'er...!"

After being reminded by the dog-headed stone statue, Lu Feng also came to his senses. He immediately helped up the unconscious Bei Chenwan and then subconsciously circulated his dantian energy, seemingly intending to help her resolve the corpse poison in her body.

"Young man, what are you up to?"

"Do you perhaps wish for the death of this little girl from the Beichen clan?!"

Just as Lu Feng was about to take action to detoxify, he was suddenly stopped by a dog-headed stone statue beside him, whose tone was quite serious.

"What do you mean by that?"

Interrupted by the dog-headed stone statue's stern voice, Lu Feng's expression froze slightly. He subconsciously retorted, "Miss Wan'er inadvertently inhaled a large amount of corpse poison miasma earlier. If she doesn't expel the corpse poison miasma from her body in time, wouldn't it be even more life-threatening?!"

"idiot!"

Faced with Lu Feng's question, the dog-headed statue merely twitched its ears before opening its mouth and saying, "This little girl from the Beichen clan is quite different from you!"

"Although this humble monk doesn't know how you survived absorbing so much corpse poison and miasma, once the corpse poison and miasma invade the internal organs, it cannot be resolved by ordinary means..."

"Even using the dantian's Yuan Power and innate Qi won't work?" Lu Feng was still somewhat unwilling to give up.

"Hmph, of course not!"

With another cold snort, the dog-headed stone statue said in a meaningful tone, "However, you're lucky this time, you just happened to run into this humble monk, the greatest philanthropist in the world..."

"So if you obediently ask for my help and promise to do me a small favor later, I will then help you neutralize the corpse poison in this little girl from the Beichen clan..."

"Okay, I agree!"

Before the former could finish speaking, Lu Feng nodded repeatedly, as if rescuing Bei Chenwan was the most important thing in his mind right now.

"Wow, this kid's actually quite agreeable?"

Seeing that Lu Feng agreed without even asking, the dog-headed stone statue was also slightly surprised. It replied, "In that case, please take this humble monk to that little girl..."

"Eh?"

Lu Feng was taken aback.

"What?! Are you deaf? This humble monk is currently unable to move on his own. Do you still want to save that little girl from the Beichen clan?"

Seeing that Lu Feng was still standing there in a daze, the dog-headed stone statue got a little angry and immediately scolded him.

"All right...!"

Despite being scolded by the dog-headed stone statue, Lu Feng was not angry. Instead, he looked embarrassed and immediately used a palm strike to pull the statue into his palm. He then carefully placed it in front of the unconscious Bei Chenwan.

"Hey, senior dog-head, we're counting on you from now on..."

"Dog head? What the hell! Don't you know how to talk?!"

Before Lu Feng could finish speaking, he was met with another angry rebuke from the dog-headed stone statue: "Young man, this humble monk was once a top expert renowned throughout the Eastern Xuan Region. Even a three-year-old child on the street would respectfully bow and worship upon encountering this monk. Do you even understand, kid...?!"

"Um, may I ask what your name is, senior...?"

Faced with the dog-headed stone statue's angry rebuke, Lu Feng's lips twitched slightly, and then he suppressed his displeasure and said...

After all, Bei Chenwan's life was hanging by a thread, and he had no way to save her. He could only rely on this dog-headed stone statue of unknown origin in front of him.

Therefore, in order to save Bei Chenwan, Lu Feng had no choice but to reluctantly play the role of a submissive grandson.

"My Buddhist name is Jiegu. I was one of the top masters of the Wusheng Sect in the past, and I also served as the Left Envoy of Wusheng. However, given your age, you probably don't know how powerful I was back then..."

The dog-headed stone statue spoke with a rather arrogant tone.

"What?!"

"You're also a remnant of the Wusheng Sect?!"

Upon hearing the other party's words, Lu Feng's expression darkened slightly, and he immediately took several steps back, his eyes filled with fear and vigilance.

After all, the enmity between him and the Wusheng Sect was considerable; the two sides were like oil and water, irreconcilable. Moreover, the former Left Envoy of Wusheng, Leng Youlan, had publicly abducted his disciple, Lin Xiaoyu.

"Remnants of the Wusheng Sect?"

"You young man, you really have a sharp tongue...!"

Seeing Lu Feng's sudden startle and wary expression, Jie Gu didn't get angry or show it, as if he had expected it. "Although I am a member of the Wusheng Sect, I have no grudge against you, not even the slightest connection..."

"Moreover, the world is vast, and everyone has their own ambitions."

"Even if you were misled by those righteous scum from the Eastern Xuan Region in the past, and now harbor prejudice against the Wusheng Sect, it doesn't mean that I am a heinous criminal. You should understand this simple truth, shouldn't you?"

Jie Gu continued unhurriedly.

Lu Feng frowned, a hint of hesitation flashing across his face, as if he too was wavering on Jie Gu's words.

After all, the other party was indeed very different from the group of cultists he had in the past!

Besides, it's unclear whether Jie Gu is a human or a ghost right now; he's just a dog-headed stone statue that can't move on its own, and doesn't seem to pose any threat!

"call...!"

Thinking of this, Lu Feng took another deep breath, then tentatively questioned, "Jie Gu, you said you were one of the top experts of the Wusheng Sect in the past, and also ranked as the Left Envoy of Wusheng, a position of considerable importance..."

"But as far as I know, the current Left and Right Envoys of the Wusheng Sect are actually different people. The position of Left Envoy is occupied by a demonic witch named Leng Youlan. How do you explain this?"

"Leng Youlan? I don't know her...!"

Faced with Lu Feng's probing questions, Jie Gu merely twitched his dog ears, then said nonchalantly, "However, several decades have passed since this humble monk was imprisoned in the Ancient Pagoda of Calamity..."

"Leaving aside whether those old comrades who fought alongside me back then are still around, decades have passed, so it's not surprising that the Wusheng Sect has appointed a new Left Envoy..."

"Therefore, young man, you can rest assured that this humble monk has never lied, much less deceived anyone..."

"This person has been trapped in the ancient pagoda of misfortune for decades?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng frowned slightly, surprised. "Could this person be the former Left Envoy of Wusheng, which is why he is completely unaware of external affairs and the various movements of the Wusheng Sect over the years?"

After all, Jie Gu has lost his physical body for some unknown reason, and his whole body has almost turned into an immovable dog-headed stone statue. In addition, he has been trapped in the Angu Tower for decades, so it is normal that he is completely unaware of what is happening in the outside world!
