"'Tail'?"

The ghost put a finger on his tail vertebrae and gestured, "It's just a long tail, and then it splits like a tree branch and splits into nine tails." ”

Chu Yuan tilted his head slightly and said, "People can grow hair, but how can they grow tails?"

The drunkard smiled bitterly: "That's the truth, it's really a person, not much bigger than a newborn baby." At that time, we were all stunned, and later someone mentioned that yì brought it back for research. ”

"Brought back?"

"Nope. The drunkard shook his head and said, "That piece of ice is strange, we can't get close to it at all." Standing at a distance of one meter from it, it was as if even one's own blood was going to be frozen. ”

Chu Yuan was a little moved and said, "Is there such a thing?"

The drunkard took a sip of wine and said, "Don't say you don't believe it, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed such a thing." After a pause, he asked, "Have you ever heard of absolute ice?"

Chu Yuan shook his head.

The drunkard said: "Legend has it that the limit of ice is absolute ice, and there is also a popular name called absolute zero, and if you can reach this kind of distance, you will freeze everything that touches it." He glanced at Chu Yuan and continued: "Not only ice, but other elements also have their own limits. We are all using the elements of nature as our own power, so we have been studying the elements that cannot be seen, touched, but really existed. We now have an elemental limit for each element, and things like the absolute freezing of ice that can freeze a qiē in an instant include...... Element. There is also the ultimate melting point of fire, which can incinerate objects at any time in the blink of an eye, even if the hardest stone in the world encounters the ultimate melting point. It will also be vaporized in the blink of an eye. In addition to this, there is the ultimate density of soil, which is an invincible defense, if protected by the ultimate density of the soil system. Unless a nuclear bomb explodes directly around you, there is no power that can break through the earth's defenses at once. There is also an electric ......"

"Wait a minute. Chu Yuan spoke up to stop the drunkard from talking any further, and said, "Do you think that the piece of ice that the nine-tailed fox was sealed is absolutely frozen?"

The drunkard nodded, "That's what we guessed. Although we know that there are elemental limits in this world, we have never heard of when these elemental limits have appeared. However, judging from the situation at the time, the ice on the nine-tailed fox is very likely to be the legendary absolute ice, even if it is not, it must be close to that kind of Cheng dù, otherwise it is impossible for us to be unable to approach that piece of ice with the strength of our people. I had a feeling at the time. If I force my way closer, I'm afraid I'll be frozen in ice. ”

"Is Absolute Frozen really that powerful?"

The drunkard said dissatisfiedly: "Boy, what do you think is the elemental limit? I tell you, if your ice ability can reach the absolute ice limit, you can go straight to becoming a god, because you are already invincible." But it's impossible. ”

"Why?"

The drunkard said angrily: "Any one of the supernatural beings with the limit of the elements can cause the end of the world, do you think it is so easy? It is impossible for human beings to cultivate to the limit of the elements, because the laws of the world do not allow it, and as soon as we humans are born, our bodies limit our own development. No other body can hold such a huge amount of energy. So far, the strongest of the known supernatural beings has only reached one thousandth of the elemental limit, which is already very remarkable. ”

Chu Yuan thought for a moment and then asked, "If that's the case." So how did the absolute ice you just talk about come about, and how did the nine-tailed fox get frozen inside?"

The drunkard smiled bitterly: "You ask me, who do I ask?" Although we humans don't have this ability, it doesn't mean that there is no elemental limit in nature. And whether that ice is absolutely frozen is still speculation, but it is a fact that we can't get close to that ice. ”

"And after that?"

"After that?" the drunkard shrugged and said, "If you can't get it back, you have to leave it there, otherwise what else can we do?" Then we did as instructed in the note left by the 'leader', and divided the dragon soul into several factions, and our ability group was ordered to move here, mainly to guard the sleeping place of the nine-tailed fox. ”

Chu Yuan asked tentatively, "But now the nine-tailed fox is gone, right?"

The drunkard smiled bitterly, "You're so smart. That's right, we got the message. When it was said that there was a murder case in Qiandu Town, and the deceased's heart was missing, Agni's first reaction was to immediately send someone to the sleeping place to check. At the same time, he sent the three of you to Qiandu Town. At this, the drunkard showed a worried look on his face, and said, "But yesterday Agni received a phone call, and it was from someone sent to inspect the sleeping place. They said that the nine-tailed fox was gone......"

"It broke through the ice on its own and came out?"

The drunkard shook his head and sighed, "I don't know, it stands to reason that nothing can come out of that kind of Cheng dù's ice. But there are no absolutes in the world, and there are not a few examples of this world being frozen in ice and coming back to life after many years, so it is not impossible for the nine-tailed fox to come back to life after being frozen for five hundred years. I just can't figure out how it got out of that ice? I go there a few times a year, and the energy on that ice hasn't waned. ”

Chu Yuan interjected and asked, "Where is the place of sleep?"

The drunkard took a sip of wine and said, "If you want to go, I'll take you there tomorrow." ”

Yuan answered and got up and walked out, and when he reached the door, he stopped, faced the door and asked, "What do you think the nine-tailed fox is?"

"Something?" said the drunkard with a smile, "It's not a thing, I guess it's some kind of deformity or something." ”

"Not true. Chu Yuan said: "Judging from the scene of the murder, this is not something that an ordinary human can cause. ”

The drunkard leaned against the sand and said, "Of course it's not ordinary, otherwise it would not have been possible to come to thirty-eight Shaolin masters five hundred years ago, and thirty-four of them would have been killed by it." At that time, the ancient martial arts were not comparable to those now. ”

Chu Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't think it's going to be a human being. ”

"Oh?" the drunkard shook the bottle and asked, "And what do you think it is?"

"I don't know. After Chu Yuan finished speaking, he opened the door and walked out. It wasn't until the door was closed again that the drunkard's faint sigh sounded in the room.

What exactly is a nine-tailed fox? The legendary nine-tailed fox cannot survive and eats human hearts every 100 years. And then an extra tail grows, it's all. That's a myth, an ethereal legend. It is impossible to exist in the real world. If there really was anything that could live for hundreds or thousands of years, the world would have been in chaos a long time ago.

Since it is not the mythical and legendary nine-tailed fox, what is it? What happened 500 years ago? How did the nine-tailed fox appear? Who has the ability to freeze it for 500 years? How does it come out today, 500 years later? Also, why does it eat human hearts? And why does it like to stay in Qiandu Town to commit crimes? This was the case 500 years ago. This is still true today. Is there something in Qiandu Town that attracts it? There were so many questions that could not be answered, Chu Yuan thought about it as he walked towards his room.

Although it is only a dormitory building, it occupies a huge area, almost the size of a small residential complex. It's no wonder that the base was built underground. There is a place and a space. Everyone here has a room, and each room is four or five hundred square meters in size, and one or two hundred square meters in size. Therefore, although Chu Yuan and the drunkard live on the same floor, they are in two different directions, and they need to walk a corridor of nearly two hundred meters from the drunkard's room to return to their room, and they have to turn several corners.

Chu Yuan had just taken a few steps forward when he heard the sound of a demon spirit humming and chirping from behind the corner in front of him. It seems to be reading some kind of song or something like that. Chu Yuan ignored it and continued to walk forward, and just as he was about to reach the corner, the demon spirit's words suddenly changed, and he read: "The pond is full of moonlight, and the demon spirit is holding the waist of the beautiful woman. ……”

At the same time, Chu Yuan suddenly trembled slightly, his face showed a look of horror that he had never seen before, and even the leg he had just stepped out of the air stopped in mid-air and couldn't put it down for a long time.

It's a familiar ballad, it's really familiar, but where have you heard it? Why does it feel a deep sadness in my heart when I hear it? The sad tone seems to be like a young girl repeating something in her ear.

It's just that my heart hurts.

Chu Yuan had forgotten the time and place, and could only stand there stupidly. I racked my brains to remember something, but in the end I couldn't remember anything. Thoughts were fluttering in his mind like snowflakes, and Chu Yuan wanted to reach out and grab one of the fragments so that he could take a closer look, but these fragments of memory were fleeting, and no trace could be found after that.

At this time, the demon spirit just turned a corner and met Chu Yuan, who was standing motionless at the corner. He glanced at Chu Yuan coldly, and brushed it directly past him without even saying hello, and continued to shout loudly in his mouth: "The beauty has a leg and the demon spirit has a waist." Damn,**......"

The demon spirit gradually walked away, and his voice became smaller and smaller, only saving Chu Yuan to stand alone in the corridor.

Chu Yuan raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling above his head, there seemed to be a face, a very vague face, but he could clearly feel that it was a girl. She was laughing, smiling very sweetly, and the same sweet voice was repeating: "The moonlight water in the pond is fluttering...... The little pig hugged Chu Yuan's waist...... Chu Yuan smacked his legs...... Piggy with a waist ...... Giggle......"

"The little pig hugged Chu Yuan's waist ......"

"Piggy ......"

Chu Yuan was a little stupid, and stood there motionless obsessively. The corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a hint of a smile, he was laughing. Why laugh? He doesn't know, or he doesn't even know he's laughing. The girl's words kept ringing in her ears, and the smile on the corner of Chu Yuan's mouth gradually became a little thicker, but there was a hint of sadness in the smile. If someone saw this scene at this time, they would definitely think that Chu Yuan was a madman. He stood there with his head raised and stared at the ceiling above in a bit of confusion, a smile on the corner of his mouth, but it made people laugh very sadly.

After a long time, Chu Yuan withdrew his gaze, and sighed softly, with a rare stretch on his face, and muttered a slight opening: "Xinxin." ”

Yes, he remembered, the name. I still can't remember who the owner is? But he really remembered that in the deepest part of his memory, the girl named Zhang Xinxin.

Who was Zhang Xinxin? Why did the song that the demon spirit casually recited reminded him of her? Chu Yuan didn't know, he only knew that this name gave him a very warm feeling. It feels a bit like home, and it seems that there is still family waiting for him to return. Other than that, it seems that there is someone waiting for him. Is it a friend, a relative? I don't know.

For the first time, this was the first time that Chu Yuan wanted to retrieve his lost memories so strongly. It's just the name, and the feeling.

Thinking of this, Chu Yuan suddenly turned around and returned to the drunkard's door, stretched out his hand and pressed the doorbell on the door frame.

The doorbell rang for a moment, and the door opened. The drunkard, with a drunken face, poked out half of his head from behind the door, still holding a small half bottle of wine in his hand, but it was no longer the bottle of wine that Chu Yuan had when he was before. It seems that the name of the drunkard is indeed correct, and he has already drunk two bottles of wine in this moment.

When the drunkard saw Chu Yuan, he wiped his eyes, opened his mouth and spewed out a strong smell of wine and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"You said that the dragon soul has a way to restore my memory?"

The drunkard was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't you say it doesn't matter?"

Chu Yuan said with a flat face: "I want to get my memory back now." ”
