Chapter 333: Discovery
Fang Ru was taken aback, snatched the backpack from Feng Mao's, hugged it tightly in his arms, and half-turned around, using his body to protect the backpack, panicked and nervous.
Feng Mao's hand hung in the air, forgetting to withdraw it.
Fang Ru reacted strongly, and he was not surprised. Whoever knows that he is surrounded by a bomb that will detonate at any time, it is impossible to sit still.
But what she was guarding against was not the pot in the backpack, but him?
This brief moment made Fang Ru realize his gaffe.
"That...... It's a long story. ”
Fang Ru straightened her hair and cleared her throat. "I'll tell you more about it when I have a chance. Anyway, this pot is no longer a threat to me. On the contrary, it has helped me a lot, and on several occasions, I have used it to block zombies. And now I can't do without him for refining medicine. This pot is worthy of being used by Fang Hua's ancestor himself back then, and I found that it actually has many functions such as increasing the speed of refining medicine, increasing the purity of medicine, and so on. Without its help, I wouldn't have been able to refine the potion I needed in time, maybe, no, yes, I would have hung up before I met you. ”
Unconsciously, Fang Ru turned on the same mode as he did with Li Si, and desperately praised the pot.
After saying a lot, Tutu realized a question: "Wait, how can you tell it's the pot?" ”
"When you got in the car, the zipper opened a little bit." Feng Mao said.
"Really?" Fang Ru looked down, and then looked at it with a look of adoration, "Cousin, you are really sharp-eyed." You can see it in the backpack so dark, did you eat a lot of vitamin A? ”
"Divert the subject less. I don't know this pot? Feng Mao didn't eat Fang Ru's set, "Maybe this pot has another function, you didn't say it." The ability to deceive people. Look at you, you've been deceived. Do you remember when you were a kid and sneaked away to play in the attic, and what did your grandmother beat you up into? She's never willing to lift a finger on you! Just for this pot! Those who touch it will die, these four words are how many people in the Fang family exchanged their lives for them! I think you must have been brainwashed by it and become his puppet. Hurry up and give it to me, I'll destroy it. Otherwise, one day, you yourself will die! ”
Saying that, come and grab the bag.
Fang Ru threw the backpack onto his back and used his body to block between the pot and Feng Mao.
"Xiaoru!" Feng Mao was incredulous.
If there was still a hint of panic in the blocking just now, she was obviously well thought out now. Calm and firm.
And such a decision. is the hardest thing to shake.
"Cousin."
Fang Ru put away the giggle just now and asked calmly, "Do you think your cousin is the kind of person who is indifferent to seeing the people around him die?" ”
Feng Mao's lips pursed into a sharp line.
Fang Ru went further: "Or do you think that your cousin is the kind of person who wants to kill people for his own sake?" ”
Go without saying. Feng Mao and Fang Ru both knew the answer.
"So. Brother, what are you worried about? Fang Ru asked. If this pot still devours the soul as before, it doesn't matter whether he uses me to find him food or not, as long as he really hurts innocent people. Without you, I'll destroy him myself. ”
Feng Mao was still not at ease. "But...... It's dangerous after all. ”
"For others, perhaps. But for me, it only protects me. Fang Ru was silent, "A lot of things have happened here. But...... At the beginning, the third uncle sent me this pot, but he really wanted my life. ”
"This pot was really sent to you by the third uncle."
Although he had already guessed it, Feng Mao was still shocked.
As for why you can guess it earlier, it's very simple. Fang Ru's grandmother's property, Feng Mao's family, didn't get anything, and Fang Ru only got the potion and various raw materials for making the potion, and this pot was not among them. At that time, Grandma's will was rescued by Feng Mao's mother, and Feng Mao was very clear about it.
This pot doesn't have long legs, it wasn't given to Fang Ru by the third uncle, who else could it be.
And why did his third uncle, Fang Ru's third uncle, do this, Feng Mao quickly figured it out.
Grandma Fangru's legacy has been haunted for months. The third uncle used the pot to let Fang Ru die violently, and all her property would be divided among relatives as an inheritance. Among them is not only an inheritance that Fang Ru inherited from her grandmother, but also Fang Ru's dead parents left to her, as well as the belongings she earned herself. This will be a large asset, even if it is only a small piece, it will be enough to make the third uncle's heart move. Not to mention that her mother doesn't like to fight, and even the inheritance that Grandma Fang Ru gave her is handed over. The third uncle should be very confident that he can swallow it alone.
Of course, on the day this pot arrived, the zombie virus broke out in Jing'an City, and Feng Mao couldn't have known about it.
For a moment, Feng Mao's body was cold.
Although he has long recognized the face of his good third uncle. But when it's red. Bare. Bare. When the ground was unfolded in front of him, he still felt a dull pain in his heart.
Fang Ru came to the northern base by herself. From beginning to end, she didn't mention how her third uncle was doing, whether she had met him. Maybe...... No, Feng Mao didn't want to guess anything anymore. Let's just assume that there is no such thing as a third uncle.
"Then you can't tell my mother about this pot." Feng Mao said to Fang Ru, "You can't let her know that this pot is with you." Otherwise, she knew what her third uncle had done...... It's going to be sad. ”
Fang Ru nodded. Even if he didn't find out what the third uncle did, Fang Ru didn't dare to show the pot to the second aunt. That would scare her.
Consensus reached. Feng Mao asked again suspiciously, "Are you sure it has really changed its ways?" ”
"That's right." Fang Ru nodded heavily. "The reason why this pot eats souls is because there is a soul sealed here. For some reason, his soul was broken. The breach was like a black hole, constantly tearing at his soul, so he had to devour the living soul to fill it. Of course, just like a human stomach, what is thrown into it will not be long before it is consumed, so he can only keep eating and eating. ”
As for why the pot lost his mind and became a Pixiu who only knew how to eat, Fang Ru always suspected that it was because he had been locked up for too long and had never been able to touch the food, and as a result, he was so hungry that he went insane......
"Now that I use the crystal nucleus as his food, he doesn't have to eat the soul anymore." Fang Ru said with a smile.
"I see. I didn't expect the crystal nucleus to have this kind of function. Feng Mao shook his head helplessly, "You, don't be conceited just because you are capable." Good travelers drown, do you understand this truth? ”
"I understand, I understand." Fang Ru assured. Feng Maoneng said this, which showed that he believed her words and would no longer insist on getting rid of the pot.
Finally got through this hurdle.
The aroma of dishes came from the kitchen. Feng Mao and Fang Ru went to prepare the table, and halfway through, Feng Mao suddenly remembered something and quipped: "Hey, listen to what you just said, that soul is still in the pot?" And the IQ is quite high? Call it out and see you one day? (To be continued......)
