Chapter Seventy-One: The Last Years of the Wind and Candles

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Shi Zhantian sat behind the desk, coughed dryly twice, and then looked at the two children again.

Ever since the war, he's been suffering from this cough.

It stands to reason that the recovery ability of the Nine Qian Heavenly Master should be stronger than that of ordinary people.

However, Shi Ren still saw that his grandfather's body was getting worse day by day, like an ordinary old man in his last years, not at all like Shi Zhantian before.

It's just that Shi Ren doesn't know the reason for this, but he just feels that this injury may not be completely healed.

But Shi Zhantian was reluctant to say it, so why it became what it is now, I'm afraid only he knows.

And after Shi Ren saw Shi Zhantian coughing a few more times, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Grandfather, your body is ......"

Shi Zhantian waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, you can sit down first." ”

Although Shi Ren was a little worried, he still sat down.

"Grandfather, did you call us for something?"

After Shi Zhantian calmed down his breath, he looked at Cheng Erting, who was sitting next to Shi Ren.

"Actually, most of the things I want to talk about today have something to do with Erting. ”

When Cheng Erting heard this, she quickly straightened her body.

"Something to do with me?"

"yes, it's about who you are. ”

As soon as these words came out, Cheng Erting's eyes changed, and she lowered her head silently.

"I know, he doesn't know about you, does he?"

"Grandfather, everyone has their own privacy, it's not a good thing that I don't want to ask, and it's not a good thing to know too much about other people's privacy. ”

Shi Zhantian smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous, in fact, when that incident happened nineteen years ago, it shook the Global Heavenly Master Association. ”

So, it's not a secret, it's just that many people have forgotten the butterfly effect that was stirred up after that incident. ”

"Man is a creature that forgets the past, especially the things that have terrified them. ”

"Always slowly forget in the process of being afraid, Erting, I know, it is because of that incident that you must have had a hard time from childhood to adulthood, right?"

Cheng Erting slowly lowered her head and did not speak.

Over the years, she has also trusted many people, and these people are happy to be close to her because of her identity.

However, when these people learned about her past, they began to alienate her, and even ...... Betrayed her.

After experiencing these things, she understood a truth, only by covering up her past can she integrate into the lives of ordinary people.

But now, Shi Zhantian wants to bring up that old matter, and Cheng Erting naturally understands what she has to bear after bringing up this old matter.

After Shi Ren glanced at her, he looked at Shi Zhantian again and said, "Grandpa, you say, I want to know what that old thing is?"

Hearing Shi Ren say this, Cheng Erting looked at it with some surprise, and then she lowered her head in great frustration, and she was even more scared in her heart.

This kind of fear is not because his past is revealed, but because he is afraid that after Shi Ren knows the truth, he will really leave him.

She really didn't want to experience this pain of loss again, especially the man in front of her, who was him......

So, she stood up and said softly: "Fool, if you want to know, just listen to your grandfather, no matter what you hear after that, what results you get, what decisions you make, I can accept it, I'll just wait outside." ”

As she spoke, she was about to go out.

At this time, Shi Ren grabbed her and said, "Silly dog, you just stay and listen to what grandpa said." ”

"No, but!" Shi Ren stared at her with a serious face.

Cheng Erting looked at him with something in her eyes, and this feeling made her heart suddenly feel a little steady.

She glanced at Shi Zhantian, only to see Shi Zhantian nodding at her, signaling her to trust him.

Taking a deep breath, Cheng Erting sat back down.

Shi Zhantian looked at Shi Ren and said, "Child, you should know that there are several types of demons, right?"

Shi Ren said: "I know, there are three kinds of demons, power demons, illusion demons and succubus. ”

"That's right, force demons and illusion demons, in the final analysis, are actually the Demon Ancestors who injected some human beings into their own blood after they came. ”

"Let them become their subordinates, and in the continuous evolution, a subhuman race like the Demon Race has been formed. ”

These things, when he was in the basement of the Jin Ancestral Hall before, Shi Xi and the four of them told him.

"What about succubi? Aren't succubi people from the demon race?"

Speaking of this, Shi Ren realized that he had never seen a succubus since he entered the Heavenly Master Association.

Even those older Heavenly Master seniors didn't mention it.

This made Shi Ren a little puzzled.

"Succubi, in fact, do not belong to the demon race, and even, they are the spiritual gossamer that does not exist in the entity in the first place, they are the aura of heaven and earth, and they are also the essence of heaven and earth. ”

Shi Zhantian suddenly made Shi Ren feel surprised.

This kind of plot that only appears in fantasy novels will now become true, which will shock anyone.

"But why haven't many of the Heavenly Masters who are a little older than me said anything about succubi?"

"That's because succubi don't usually appear in the world, and even now, no one under the age of forty has ever seen what a succubus really looks like. ”

"So, for the younger generation, this succubus is more likely to appear in books and legends. ”

However, even if it is in the book, the description of the succubus ends here, and the rest is a sentence that has not been verified for the time being, and it is impossible for the younger generation to know much. ”

Shi Zhantian nodded and said, "Indeed, but that's because your father gave you an ordinary human family, so since you were a child, he didn't instill in you about succubi." ”

"But those children who have grown up in the Celestial Master family since they were young, they will tell their children one thing, and that is that there is a great danger in the succubus itself, a great danger. ”

Shi Ren frowned.

These parents may have never seen a succubus in their lives, but why do they dare to educate their children like this?

And Shi Zhantian's next words quickly answered his question.

"Succubus, as I said before, they are formed by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, and the essence is the spirit, since the major is the spirit, this has created a characteristic of the succubus. ”

That is, when they do condense into human form, they will only condense into the form of a woman with relatively weak physical functions, and will not condense into the form of a man who needs strong physical functions. ”

Speaking of this, Shi Ren subconsciously looked at Cheng Erting who was sitting on the side.
