Chapter 60: Recovering Memory
Jin Hotaru knew very well that he had innate deficiencies in spells and combat power, so he spent hundreds of years studying human sword techniques to make up for it.
Now, for the first time in his life, he was fighting other monsters without Yan'er, Zou Xiao, or Du Ji Ao. He found his own shortcomings from these battles, and it seems that he is right to learn martial arts for so many years.
Although the mana of the roe deer owl is not as good as that of Jin Hotaru, but the strength in battle, ferocity and other comprehensive strength are stronger than Jin Hotaru, fortunately, Jin Hotaru's fighting skills just make up for this, and in comparison with the two, Jin Hotaru has a slight upper hand.
When it hugged a large tree and slammed it towards the golden firefly, the golden firefly immediately disappeared invisibly, and suddenly emerged from the shadow under its feet. The shadow knife in its hand slashed up against the trunk of the tree it was holding, slashing directly at its fingers, and its left hand swung a fist at Jin Ying, who recited another incantation, only to see the roe owl's own shadow roll up and hug its hands and feet.
Jin Firefly waved the shadow knife to cut off the four fingers of the roe deer owl, and the wooden stick fell to the ground, it covered its severed finger and screamed, desperately trying to break free from the shackles of its own shadow, grabbed a big tree from the side of the road and pulled it uprooted, and the muddy tree was waved by it vigorously and rushed towards Jin Firefly.
At this moment, the sun was obscured by a floating cloud in the sky, and the whole street was shrouded in a large shadow. The golden firefly also merges with everything at this time, disappearing and hiding somewhere.
"You kid, come out for me! I'm going to eat you!" it waved the big tree like crazy, and it kept yelling, "You kid dare to tease Lao Tzu! I'm going to eat you! You come out for me!"
It cast another spell and shot at all around it, causing nearby trees to fall, houses to fall, and dust to fly.
In fact, the golden firefly was standing behind it, looking at its unguarded back, and he could easily kill it by stabbing it with a knife or using a simple spell.
But when Jin Ying thought that she had thought it was her human father just now, no matter what spell it had fallen into, Jin Ying didn't want to kill it now.
"Forget it," Jin Ying thought to herself, and couldn't bear to put away the shadow knife, "It may have been tricked by some kind of spell to think that it is a human and my father, so I'd better let it go." ”
Suddenly, he saw Lu Qing come out of hiding at some point and look around the street.
The roe owl also spotted her, he was closer to Lu Qing than the golden firefly, and it clearly remembered that this woman was in league with the hateful manjin moss, and it roared angrily, jumped into the air, lifted the big tree and smashed it down at Lu Qing viciously.
Lu Qing screamed and fell to the ground, looking at the roe owl in horror. She forgot to resist and escape, and even forgot to escape.
"Lu Qing!" Jin Hotaru exclaimed, but it was too late to rush over from where he stood.
With a "boom", the tree slammed down, bouncing branches, leaves, dust, and dirt in all directions.
After the dust cleared, I saw Lu Qing still sitting on the ground with her eyes wide open and her mouth wide open.
"Ji Ao!" Jin Hotaru shouted in surprise.
"You're done with you!" Ji Ao didn't have the joy of reunion, he glanced at Jin Ying eloquently and said, "Do you understand whether a hero saves the beauty or not, this can't be done, you have no future!"
"Ji Ao, it's good to see you're okay!" Jin Hotaru said on a completely different topic from Ji Ao.
The roe deer owl shouted and uprooted another tree and threw it at Ji Ao. Unfortunately, Ji Ao is not a golden firefly, and he never thinks about mercy or sudden mercy when attacking his enemies.
Ji Ao raised his hand and pushed, and the tree grazed his shoulder and smashed to the floor. Then he slapped it hard on the arm, and his claws suddenly reached out of his fingers and plunged into the other's chest, gouging out its heart.
"I'm starving to death these days......" he said to Jin Ying vaguely as he ate, and when he saw that Lu Qing had been staring at him, he asked politely, "Do you want to eat?"
"Ah...... Youkai!" Lu Qing yelled in fright, "He, he, is eating people!"
She was so frightened that she threw herself into Jin Ying's arms, hugged his chest tightly, closed her eyes, and didn't dare to look up at Ji Ao again.
"Don't be afraid, he's eating monsters, not people. Jin Ying corrected pertinently.
Lu Qing groaned, but fainted in fright.
"What is she doing here, she hasn't eaten it...... I'll eat another piece of elbow meat......" Ji Ao said as he devoured it, "It's just right that she doesn't eat it, and I'll enjoy it alone." ”
Jin Ying asked worriedly, "Why can you and I remember it, but Lu Qing is still like this?"
They were now sitting in a room in an inn, and Lu Qing was desperately grabbing Jin Ying's arm and hiding behind him in great fear, and Jin Ying was very disturbed to see this scene.
"It's better if she can't remember, how happy you are now, can you be so close to her if she's sober?" Ji Ao Erlang sat on the edge of the table with Erlang's legs on his feet, sipping tea, picking his teeth and saying cool words.
"Ji Ao...... You ......"
"Isn't what I'm telling the truth? isn't it better for her to look pitiful and dependent on you than for her to pose as a zombie who is as cold as ice and rejects people? Why don't you take this opportunity to ...... with her?"
"Ji Ao!" Hearing him say this, Jin Ying began to be unhappy.
"Alright, alright, I'm not going to tease you, let's get down to business. Ji Ao said and sat down on the chair.
Ji Ao hugged the back of the chair with both hands, tilted his head and said solemnly, "Have you noticed that after you arrived in this space, everything was wrong?"
"Yes, I found out too!" Hotaru clenched her fists, "I thought I was a human for a while, and the humans here became youkai again...... I can't figure out what the hell is going on!"
"Humans have become youkai?" Ji Ao lowered his arm and looked at him sideways in confusion, "They're originally youkai, right?"
"Are they youkai living among humans? Why are they impersonating my parents?When were my memories and Lu Qing's memories quietly replaced?"
"Youkai living among humans?" Ji Ao said with a frown on his lower lip, "It's so strange! Not only have your and Lu Qing's memories been replaced, but even mine." I also thought I was human for a while, and I was even sentenced to death. ”
"When was my memory replaced? What happened when the dead soldier turned into a youkai when they rounded me up?" he recalled the strange thing that happened before he fainted.
"It's more important that the people around them, when they see a living youkai, they are scared and surprised, but when they see a dead youkai, they don't care at all, it's so weird. Ji Ao said and shook his head.
"Ji Ao, don't ask me, my own question has already made my head explode! You are smarter than me, you can think of the answer" Jin Ying said and hugged her head and groaned.
"It's true that I'm smarter than you!" Ji Ao agreed with Jin Ying's opinion, "Even if you say so, well, then leave it to my genius brain to think!"
"First, soon after we arrived, we found ourselves in a place where there was neither religion nor monsters, and secondly, we don't know when we started thinking of ourselves as humans, but we have memories of the experiences, families, and identities that we should have as human beings. ”
Ji Ao began to analyze one by one: "Third, when we do it as human beings, there will be corresponding human beings to be our relatives. Fourth, your father turned out to be a roe deer owl. ”
Ji Ao continued to analyze, counting his fingers as he spoke, but when he said this, he couldn't say any more, so he asked Jin Ying: "Fifth, the woman who appeared as your mother, and the person who died when he rounded me up, after he died or when he was dying, all became youkai: sixth, the people here are not surprised by the dead youkai, and seventh...... What's the seventh?"
