Chapter 31: Red Moon Stone
"Gillian! I've found you! β
"Don't come here!"
Jun stopped.
"This is the famous 'Red Moon Stone' in Red Moon City, one of the mysteries in the world. There is a saying that the evil god in my body can be ...... by this red moon stone" Jin Jiao, who has learned spells since childhood, is no stranger to these, and she turned to face Ah Jun.
"What are you going to do?" Wu Tianjun asked with a worried face.
"I lay on the Red Moon Stone, and it pierced my heart, and my blood flowed on the Red Moon Stone, and then I would come back from the dead. After the resurrection, I am a normal person who has not been possessed, because the evil spirit has been dispelled. β
"What?! How shall I see you dead before me? Ah Jun shouted, his face a little distorted, "I can't do such a cruel thing!" It's just a rumor, Gillian, don't take it seriously. β
"Well, I don't want to, just die so easily." Gillian turned to face Red Moon Stone, "But you can't come here." I'm casting a spell and praying to God, and men are not to be approached, otherwise I will lose all my work. β
Ah Jun said bluntly: "With you, it's either a demon or a god, it's so fantastic, it's really not something ordinary people can bear." β
"Really?" Jin Jiao's eyes glistened with tears.
"But fortunately, I, Wu Tianjun, am not very human." Wu Tianjun smiled.
"Huh...... You traitor, a good prince, you should not come to this strange country, aren't you afraid that one life is not enough? Jin Jiao said.
"Gillian, do you know that coming here is the best decision I've ever made?"
"What do you mean by that?"
"If I hadn't been here, I wouldn't have met you. You are the best thing in my life. β
"Stupid ......" Jin Jiao blushed.
"What's wrong, Gillian? Don't you feel the same way about me? Wu Tianjun asked.
"Think about it, if we hadn't met and experienced all this, how could we be moving forward side by side today?"
"Yes...... That being said. Jin Jiao smiled and said, "It's good that I met Tianjun you, otherwise I might have died before I even got out of the Qilin Palace." β
"Don't say such unlucky things."
"No, no, no, it's true. If you hadn't saved my life, I would have been victimized by the villains in the palace......"
"It's a pity, Gillian, I'm late." Wu Tianjun looked very remorseful.
"Where? Didn't you come just in time? β
"If I had come here while your grandfather was alive, I might have been able to subdue those people for you?" Wu Tianjun asked tentatively.
"It's not that simple...... Jin Jiao closed her eyes, as if recalling something, "Grandpa deliberately asked you to come to me after his death, and after an interval of six years?" β
Wu Tianjun was slightly surprised and nodded.
"With what I know about grandpa, that's right......" Gillian sighed helplessly, "Hehe, that's true." Grandpa is such a person, and every step is calculated very clearly. β
"So, you mean ......"
"So," Jin Jiao continued, "Grandpa deliberately arranged for me to be possessed by demons, just as he was possessed by demons during his lifetime. He also knows that you will definitely help me get out of the sea of suffering, even if it is to leave the Qilin Palace temporarily and go to the rivers and lakes......"
"Your grandfather...... Deliberately arranged for you to be possessed by demons? Wu Tianjun still felt a little incredulous.
"Weird, right? But Sannomiya is such a strange place. Especially the people in power at the top are unfathomable and unpredictable. Jin Jiao smiled a little abruptly, "Me too...... Growing up in the deep palace since childhood, I can understand this. β
"It's hard for you."
"Hehe, I don't need you to sympathize with me." Jin Jiao's weakness just now is now gone, "As the second prince, don't tell me you don't know the tricks in this palace?" β
"I just think it's the way it is, and it's not a 'trick'."
"Oh? You're quite philosophical. β
"Gillian, none of this matters, the important thing is that we are together now and can face the future hand in hand." Wu Tianjun's eyes showed extreme seriousness.
ββ¦β¦ Do you really think so? β
"Of course!" Wu Tianjun looked at her intently.
Jin Jiao replied with a firm look, and when she saw Wu Tianjun's serious appearance, she smiled faintly.
"Okay, I'll trust you for once." Jin Jiao smiled lightly, her voice was very gentle, "It's not easy to make the Qilin Palace believe in someone. You're in luck. β
"Yes, yes, it's my luck......" Wu Tianjun smiled, "girl, don't just mess with these exorcisms, it's not for you at all." Thinking of the situation of Jin Jiao's blood sacrifice, Wu Tianjun couldn't help but feel a thrill all over his body.
"Isn't that your specialty? You said that you followed the Taoist to exorcise demons back then, this should be a common thing for you, right? β
"Ah...... That's ......" Wu Tianjun remembered what he said when he first met Jin Jiao.
"What? You can't lie to me, do you?! Jin Jiao was obviously a little angry.
"How dare I lie to you?" Wu Tianjun immediately said, "That's the truth. It's just that I haven't encountered an exorcism scene in a long time. I'm just an apprentice who follows my master, and besides, my specialty is swordsmanship, not exorcism. β
"In that case, one of us must be able to exorcise demons."
"You...... You meanβyou? β
"What, can't you?"
"Gillian! This kind of thing can't be messed with! Wu Tianjun said solemnly and anxiously, "You are possessed by a demon!" How can you exorcise yourself? Isn't that more dangerous? β
"That'...... What's the solution? Jin Jiao thought that her sister Jin Lufang's soul had passed away, and tears came out again, sprinkled on the red moon stone, and the stone surface slowly turned scarlet.
"Gillian, ...... this stone?" Wu Tianjun asked worriedly.
"Well, this stone is really useful to me. My physical strength and true qi have all recovered. β
Ah Jun was surprised and asked, "Is this stone really so magical?" β
"But you ordinary people who are not possessed, you can't - the Red Moon Stone has no effect on your recovery. On the contrary, it will suck out your true qi. β
"It's the first time I've heard anything like this." Wu Tianjun said.
"As far as this stone is concerned, I still know a little bit more than yours." Jin Jiao said with satisfaction.
"Hahaha, well, I've lost to you." Wu Tianjun smiled.
"You fool! Do you know that when you first came in, I was scared to death......"
"How do you know I'm in the woods?"
"I don't know exactly what happened, it can be said to be telepathic......" Jin Jiao closed her eyes, "As soon as you stepped into this forest, I sensed it." β
"Really? And then what? β
"And then? And then of course I'm worried to death! β
"Hey, don't 'die' or 'die' at every turn......"
"Anyway, people just know that the flower demons will definitely ambush you." Jin Jiaoyao thought, "Because every man who steps into this land will inevitably be bewitched by the flower demon. They are born to absorb the essence of people, and they will shoot when they see a living man. β
"That's the case, no wonder ......"
"So, of course I'm afraid you'll be treated to lunch by them!"
"Hahaha, girl, your brother Ah Jun is not so weak, okay?" Wu Tianjun laughed and said, "It's not the first time I've met flower demons, they've all become our masters, haven't they?" Explain that my qualifications are still okay. β
"I, I'm worried about your ......"
"Girl, give me more trust."
"Hmm......" Jin Jiao said, her face flushing again.
"Anyway, this stone looks really ominous." Wu Tianjun circled around the stone, and then said to Jin Jiao.
"It just works for me."
"Are you sure it doesn't require you to trade anything in exchange?"
"There's nothing to exchange."
"That's good." Wu Tianjun looked at the stone carefully, "Sure enough, I can feel that this stone is emitting aura from the inside out, but as soon as I encounter your aura of coexistence between demons and spirits, it is a little unusual......"
"So, this stone only reacts to me." Jin Jiao said, "If you ordinary people stick too close, you will absorb your physical strength......
ββ¦β¦ All right. Wu Tianjun took a few steps back from the stone and walked to the lawn.
"Jun, you came to the woods just to find me?"
"Gillian, we have to find Big Brother and Qiushui quickly." Wu Tianjun said.
"Are they in danger?" Jin Jiao exclaimed.
"No...... It can only be said that there is not much danger for the time being......" Wu Tianjun explored suitable words, "They are in the city, let's hurry up and meet them." β
"Tell me first, what's going on? Do we have to be ready for the fight? Jin Jiao asked.
ββ¦β¦ I don't know. β
"Really? Then I suggest that we go to the city first to buy equipment and elixirs, and upgrade your weapons, in order to deal with accidents. Just in case. Jin Jiao said.
ββ¦β¦ You have a point, and that's it. Wu Tianjun said, "Do you know how to get out of this wood?" β
"Wrap it around me. Let me lead the team, I can find the traces of the petals that the flower demons have fallen, and follow the traces of these petals, and you can get out of the maze. β
"Okay, I'm glad you're here." Wu Tianjun stood behind Jin Jiao.
As Jin Jiao said, she can sense the petals falling from the flower demons. Therefore, with the shape of the petals falling on the ground, it is not difficult to get out of the winding deep woods.
"Okay, finally out of here." As soon as Wu Tianjun came out of the woods, he ran to Jin Jiao.
"What? Don't you feel at ease that I'll lead the way? β
"It's not. I'm trying to protect you. β
Jin Jiao listened to it and smiled: "Hey, hero!" I'm the Jin Jiao of the Qilin Palace, how can I need any protection? β
"But I'm Jin Jiao's bodyguard of the Qilin Palace!" Wu Tianjun said stubbornly.
"I ...... I'm not an easy kid to get stolen. Jin Jiao looked at Wu Tianjun and said.
"Hide behind me, I'll protect you in times of crisis." Wu Tianjun said and began to lead the team.
"You're such a hard person to convince." Although Jin Jiao looked a little displeased, her tone was extremely gentle and smiling.
"Because you're stubborn, that's all I can do." Wu Tianjun said.
"You...... You! I just thought about you, and you just talked like that! β
"Hahaha......"
