CHAPTER XXXIX
A pale gold peace buckle with a soft luster lay quietly in the palm of my hand, with a few quaint seal characters faintly looming on it, and a wisp of red blood flowed slowly in the middle, like a lazy little snake.
"It's ......"
It's really bloody!
According to the fox book, the blood amber is a kind of ice spirit soul that exists in the bitter cold land of the extreme north of Qingqiu, if the ice spirit lives for 10,000 years, it will leave behind an ice spirit the size of a chicken egg like a crystal after death, its color is golden, the whole body is transparent, and it is warm in winter and cool in summer, it is a spiritual creature that seeks good fortune and avoids evil.
I just don't know what kind of way to avoid evil, because the book doesn't say it.
"Isn't it just a blood amber, even if it can predict good and bad fortune, it doesn't need to swear, right?"
Is this thing valuable?
I couldn't help but wonder.
I'm even more curious about how it looked so gray just now.
Hu Liuye said: "In short, I am good for you." Don't ask me why. Look at my legs! ”
Hu Liuye said as he turned his lame leg over to show me: "This is the retribution for me for leaking the secret of heaven." ”
Belch?
Hu Liuye saw that I didn't believe it, so he sighed and explained: "I have been wandering the world for nearly a hundred years, making a living by divining hexagrams for others, and I think that the blessings and disasters of heaven are in my hands, so I act arbitrarily, and change my life for others more than once. This leg is the beginning. But that's just what I'm trying to do for mortals. And you were born against the sky, but you didn't die when you were robbed of thunder, you are an outlier, although I have calculated numerology for you, but I can't say anything more to you. If you say one more thing, I'm afraid it won't end well! You just have to remember to wear this blood amber on your body at all times, and never leave it. If you see that this blood amber has lost its color, then a great calamity is coming, and you must immediately change direction and leave where you are until the blood amber regains its color. This blood is sealed with your heart's blood, this blood is a good thing for those low-level spirits to improve their mana, you have to hide it so that no one can see it and rob it! If you are robbed and swallowed, you will not live! ”
I clenched the blood in my hand suspiciously, and my heart pounded.
Will I die if I lose it?
It's better to believe it! It's a matter of your own life, so it's better to be careful! My intuition told me that Hu Liuye didn't lie to me. Well, even if he lied to me, he wasn't hurting me!
Anyway, it's for my good!
I pulled a hairband from my head and tied it tightly around my neck, then tucked it into the neckline and put it on the flesh.
Hu Liuye nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's a pity that the rune paper I used to print with this blood purse was lost by you!" If it's still there, I'll take it back to the fox village and hand it over to you, and if you encounter danger in the world in the future, the rune paper will take your aunt to find you! ”
Yes? Is that piece of torn paper so useful?
I regretted it a little!
Listening to Hu Liuye mention Aunt Ruhua again, I felt even more painful in my heart.
Aunt Ruhua doesn't know what to do now.
I grabbed Hu Liuye and asked anxiously, "Do you still have a magic talisman?" Give me some, I'm in a hurry! ”
"Yes, yes!" Hu Liuye touched his sleeve and took out two pieces of rune paper and said, "I was in a hurry last night, and I was about to run out, so there are still two left, can you use them?" It's mana-draining! ”
"How can it cost mana to use talismans?" I don't understand. Isn't it just a mantra?
"The talisman is dead, and it must be supported by the spell caster to be effective! Otherwise, any mortal can use the Divine Talisman to travel thousands of miles a day, then who else in this mortal world would envy the immortals? ”
Hu Liuye stuffed the magic talisman for me, patted my clothes and stood up, and then pulled the leaves that covered the sun and shook it, and the sun turned into a round seed and gurgled out of the grass with a "whoosh".
"I advise you not to use this magic talisman. Thou art lowly, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to control this spell. Don't run into some barren mountains and mountains, what should you do if you get lost? In the world, it is better to learn from human beings to walk with their feet. ”
"However, if I don't hurry up, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Aunt Ruhua."
I couldn't help but burst into tears.
The fear and grievances that I had endured all night suddenly flare-up, and I can't stop it anymore.
The foxes in the village actually take good care of me, a child who has no father or mother, but they are not my family. There are so many things that I can only keep in my heart. Maybe it's like Eleven said, there are some things that you know are useless to say to people, so you simply don't say them.
On weekdays, I am an optimistic and independent little fox. I don't want people to pity me.
But just like the way Aunt Hua left, I felt terrified when I thought about it.
But I don't know who to tell.
No one told me what to do either.
All I know is that I'm scared, I'm scared that I'm going to lose my family again.
Family?
When did I come to see my aunt as family? Was it when she was in charge of my marriage?
I don't remember exactly.
Maybe it's because Hu Liuye is not often in Fox Village, but I have no scruples in front of him; Maybe it's because Hu Liuye knows my mother-in-law, and I know my mother-in-law's unique appearance from his mouth, so I am also close to him.
Maybe it's nothing, it's just that I'm so scared that I want to vent it.
I cried so hard that I couldn't help it.
Hu Liuye rubbed his hands at a loss on the side, turning around again and again.
It was a long time before I stopped breathlessly.
Hu Liuye saw that I was almost crying, so he came over and asked, "Why are you crying so decently?" What's wrong with you like a flower? ”
I sobbed and told Hu Liuye what I knew.
Speaking of Aunt Ruhua's appearance when she left, I couldn't help but cry again.
Hu Liuye twisted his beard with a strange face, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.
I stared at Hu Liuye, and saw that he hesitated for a moment, and then pinched his fingers and counted.
After a while, Hu Liuye raised his eyebrows and said, "It's okay, your aunt is still far from the catastrophe." ”
"However, it is clearly said in the fox book ......"
"Do you know that there are saints in the mortal world: it is better to believe in books than to have no books?"
Seeing that I was confused, Hu Liuye couldn't help but smile and said, "Since I said that there is nothing to do, then there is nothing to do." ”
Seeing that I still didn't believe it, Hu Liuye coughed lightly and asked, "Do you feel restless now?" Since your aunt left, have you ever felt your heart beating like a drum and restless? ”
I pondered, then shook my head.
"I'm just scared!"
"That's it. Our fox people's intuition has always been keen, and if something happens to a relative, their blood relatives will have a sense of it. You're just concerned about it, so you're scared, not restless. ”
Hu Liuye hesitated for a moment and said: "I just knew that you went out of the village in a hurry for this matter, so you might as well go back to Fox Village with me." The longevity of the fox clan in my fox village is recorded in the patriarch's place, you might as well go back and check it out, and you will know that I didn't lie to you. ”
"So, Aunt Ruhua is really okay? But how could she be disfigured? ”
"Isn't there a shop in the world for flowers? Probably she put a doppelganger in the world. This kind of doppelganger consumes the most mana, which is why her body dissipates. Didn't she say that there was something wrong with the shop in the world before she left? It is precisely because she has a doppelganger in the world, so she can know that there is a problem with the shop for the first time! ”
Oh!
I finally put my mind at ease.
Hu Liuye beckoned, and the donkey, who had walked a little far, ran back. Hu Liuye pulled the donkey and asked, "Xian'er can go back with me?" I went wrong in the world this time, and I was forced to vow not to set foot in the world again for a hundred years. The world is sinister, I can't settle down yet, you little girl, it's better to go back to the village with me as soon as possible. ”
