Chapter 185: Vermilion Bird Feather · "Shake the Star"
In the Star Monarch Temple, the blood and tears on the cheeks of the Star Monarch seemed to have faded long ago. Wen Yun gently pulled his soul and gently shook the silver bell, only to see a little red light above the head of the Shaking Light Star Monarch light up again. One by one, the souls dissipated in this red light. It wasn't until the first rays of sunlight shone into the cave of the Star Monarch Temple that all these spirits dissipated.
At the moment when the red light dissipated, the white blue pupils froze, and with a wave of the moon-white sleeves, a golden light flashed from the palm of his hand. Before Wen Yun could stop it, he saw countless broken rocks falling above the head of the Shaking Light Star Monarch, and the small hole that was originally a finger's width that could penetrate the moonlight became the size of a hole for one person to pass through.
Sunlight poured down from the roof of the cave, illuminating the statue of the Shaking Star Monarch.
When Bai Luo landed on the ground again, there was already a flaming red Vermilion Feather in his hand. Bai Luo looked at Wen Yun and asked coldly: "The Vermilion Bird Feather can cross the soul and attract ghosts, who taught you to use it." ”
Wen Yun sat on the ground dejectedly. After Bai Luo made a move, he asked Yun Fang to know how ridiculous he was last night. His shallow spiritual power was not worth mentioning at all in front of Bai Luo.
In the face of absolute strength, it is in vain that you want to hide anything.
Bai Luo saw that Wen Yun lowered her head, as if her heart was still at war between heaven and man, and did not urge her to answer. After a long time, Wen Yun slowly raised his head. However, her gaze did not show on Bai Luo, but fell on Zong Ye.
At this time, Wen Yun was not afraid, nor did she have the cruel look before, as if she was just an innocent girl. Wen Yun's eyes looked extremely bright under the silver ornaments. She asked, "Are you also a demon?"
Zong Ye didn't know how to answer this question, so he could only look at Wen Yun in silence. Even if Zong Ye doesn't want to admit that he is a demon, he has the blood of the demon clan on his body, and he was born with the red spirit flow of the demon clan.
Seeing that Zong Ye didn't answer, Wen Yun didn't force it, but just said lightly: "You are very similar to a person." ”
Wen Yun turned his head and looked at the Vermilion Bird Feather in Bai Luo's hand: "Do you know this thing?" As soon as the words came out, Wen Yun felt a little stupid, shook his head and said to himself: "You can actually tell the use of this thing, then you naturally recognize it." The person who taught me how to use this thing was a woman. ”
Bai Luo's eyes sank: "What kind of woman is it?"
"She was a very beautiful woman in red. ”
"Why did she teach you?" Bai Luo said coldly.
Yu Tong is gentle by nature, and even a little bland, but she has never heard of any apprentices she has accepted.
Wen Yun shook his head: "I don't know, she only said that I was an old man." ”
"What old man?"
Wen Yun said in a deep voice: "She didn't say it, she just gave me this feather and taught me how to use it." ”
"And where do these spirits come from?"
"They are all sacrifices at the crescent moon sacrifice. Wen Yun sighed, "The price of eternal life is eternal suffering. My grandfather would suffer from the cold every night after he fell into the devil, and even dog summer days would be freezing all night. Only eating human flesh can cure cold. ”
A trace of disgust flashed in Zong Ye's heart: "So the Crescent Moon Sacrifice sacrificed those women for this?"
"And that's not all. Wen Yun whispered: "Those who sign a contract with the demon clan can live forever. After a long time, people outside the village will also notice the strangeness of Yaobu Village. So every year, a new woman will marry into Yaobu Village. The woman was killed after she was pregnant. The people of Yaobu Village can pretend to be those people for generations. ”
Wen Yun lowered his head in front of the Shaking Light Star Monarch: "There are too many people." Every sacrifice is in this Star Monarch Temple. ”
Wen Yun turned his head and looked over the ruins of the Star Monarch Temple. If it weren't for Bai Luo smashing through the top of the Star Monarch Temple, the sunlight would have fallen. The Star Monarch Temple is still a place where you will never see the light of day.
Even if the sunlight could penetrate the half-ruined Star Monarch Temple outside, the sunlight would stop at the entrance of this cave. It will never shine on the Shaking Star.
Wen Yun looked at Bai Luo and said, "But there is one thing you said wrong. This Star Monarch Temple is not a fake. The Star Monarch Temple was originally in this cave. I found my great-grandmother's relics here. Wen Yun pointed to the half of the collapsed ruins: "This half of the Star Monarch Temple was built later." They have done too many sins, and they are afraid of seeing the Shaking Light Star Monarch, so they built another half of the Star Monarch Temple, whether it is a sacrifice or a sacrifice, they will not enter this cave, they are all outside. ”
Wen Yun smiled lightly: "Isn't it ridiculous? I killed so many people, but I still want to worship the Shaking Light Star Monarch for peace of mind." Ever since I got the Suzaku Feather, I have crossed the soul of the woman who sacrificed into the Suzaku Feather. They are released every full moon day. Hopefully this will make them stop. ”
Bai Luo asked, "What about the astrolabe?"
Wen Yun sat on top of the burned ruins: "This is a long story. Would you be interested in hearing it? ”
Bai Luo motioned for Wen Yun to continue.
Wen Yun said slowly: "Yaobu Village used to be a holy village, and the people in the village were not like this. When they entered the devil, what happened back then, the specific experience, the people in the village were secretive and refused to say a word. It was only by chance that I found my great-grandmother's relics that I found out the truth. ”
"About a few decades ago, my great-grandmother brought back a man on a full moon night and was very badly injured. The village chief at the time would not allow him. My great-grandmother couldn't bear to keep him, and then they had a daughter. I didn't expect that person to be a demon. Originally, that person was no different from a normal person, but it was not until the day of the eclipse that the man suddenly fell ill with a cold and killed the village chief at that time, that my great-grandmother realized that she had done something wrong. But it was too late, and by then their daughters had already been born. Fearing that she would also be implicated, she disguised the village chief as if he had been bitten to death by a black bear in the mountains, and sent the man out of the village overnight. ”
Bai Luo frowned and said, "The astrolabe of the Shaking Light Star Monarch is a holy relic, and it can defend against demons. All the babies in your Yaobu village should ask the astrolabe, how did your grandmother pass the test of the astrolabe?"
"My great-grandmother forged the astrolabe. ”
"The astrolabe is a holy relic, how can it be so easy to forge?"
"The astrolabe is a holy relic, and the only people who have seen it are the village chief and the holy woman. The village chief is dead, so ......"
Xie Jinyan was shocked: "Your great-grandmother killed the holy daughter!"
Wen Yun nodded and sighed, "This is the thing my great-grandmother regrets the most. My great-grandmother knew that my grandmother would be different, and that when she grew up, her identity would be discovered sooner or later. If I want to hide my identity, I can only make my grandmother a saint. So my great-grandmother killed the saint of the time and forged the astrolabe. It was kept under wraps until my grandfather discovered my great-grandmother's secret. ”
Xie Jinyan asked again, "Then how did they get into the devil?"
Wen Yun shook his head: "I was very young at that time, and my great-grandmother had already passed away. I can only learn about my grandfather's demon from a few words from the villagers. Although my grandmother is also a demon, she has never done anything evil. My grandfather had been married to my grandmother for many years and stumbled upon how old my grandmother was. After inquiring, I found out that my grandmother was a demon. In order to gain the same power as my grandmother, my grandfather did not hesitate to fall into the devil. After my grandfather fell into the spell, my grandmother said goodbye and the real astrolabe was gone. Only my mother was left. ”
"My mother was fortunate not to inherit the bloodline of the demon race, and died in childbirth when she gave birth to me. It's a pity that I inherited the demon bloodline. Since I grew up and learned the secrets of the village, I wanted them to stop. But even if they release their souls on the night of the full moon, they only hide for one night on the night of the full moon, and they have no remorse at all. ”
Wen Yun looked up at Zong Ye: "So I pretended to be a person and snatched the astrolabe." I want to send the astrolabe to Cangwu so that the secrets of Yaobu Village can be discovered. Later, sure enough, someone in Cangwu found something strange and came to investigate this matter. As soon as the man arrived at the Xingjun Temple, he was discovered by the villagers. They lit a fire at the Star Monarch Temple and tried to burn the man to death, but it caused a wildfire. ”
Bai Luo frowned and looked at Wen Yun, "Why did you pretend to be Zong Ye?"
Wen Yun shook his head: "I have never been out of the village, and I have never seen anyone outside the village. So I followed the character in a painting. ”
Wen Yun looked at Zong Ye and said, "A person who is somewhat similar to you." ”
"Who?"
Q Yun replied, "My great-grandfather." ”
Zong Ye's heart seemed to be suddenly disappointed. Wen Yun's great-grandfather was the one who caused all this tragedy. Will it be a little like yourself?
Wen Yun walked to the depths of the Xingjun Temple and took out a painting from it: "This is my great-grandfather." So when I read You, I thought I had really drawn the condemnation of Heaven. Wen Yun put the painting into Zong Ye's hand: "If it's really condemned by God, then it's fine." I don't have to live like this all the time. ”
Zong Ye stretched out his hand to take the scroll in Wen Yun's hand, and there was a panic in his heart for no reason, and even his hands trembled unconsciously.
The old man of the demon clan who is somewhat similar to himself in Yu Tong's mouth. Even if you don't open the scroll, there is an answer in your heart.
Bai Luo pressed Zong Ye's hand: "You don't have to look at it." ”
Zong Ye gritted his teeth, shook off Bai Luo's hand, and slammed the scroll open.
On the picture scroll, a man in black clothes and black hair, his eyes are like paint, who is he if he is not himself?
Wen Yun has never seen himself, so naturally he will not prepare such a painting in advance to slander himself.
But the people of the demon clan are immortal, and there is no such thing as reincarnation. If this person is himself, how did he appear in the Little Wuxiang Temple and be raised by six masters?
Zong Ye only felt that he suddenly had a splitting headache, and the evil qi on his body was surging: "This person ...... Is it your great-grandfather?"
"This ...... This...... This ......" Xie Jinyan, who was standing aside, also saw the painting. Fortunately, this time Xie Jinyan also controlled his mouth, and did not let the sentence "This is not you" blurt out.
Bai Luo looked at Zong Ye quietly. Obviously, for such a thing, Zong Ye himself is more difficult to accept than anyone else.
"That's not right!" Xie Jinyan snatched the scroll from Zong Ye's hand: "Zong Ye, this is not right." Look at this picture, this person seems to have a mole under the earlobe. You don't. ”
Zong Ye's heart moved, and he quickly took a closer look, and there was indeed a mole under the earlobe of the person on the scroll.
When the Emperor of the Northern Yin Emperor heard Xie Jinyan's words, he hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about, boy?" You said that the person on the scroll is exactly the same as Zong Ye, but there is an extra mole under the earlobe, but Zong Ye doesn't?"
Xie Jinyan nodded: "Yes, although the person in this painting is very similar to Zong Ye, his expression and bearing are very different, and there is an extra mole under his earlobe." ”
The Emperor of the Northern Yin Emperor couldn't see it, so Xie Jinyan described it in detail to the Emperor of the Northern Yin Emperor.
The Emperor of the Northern Yin Emperor pondered for a long time, and the corners of his mouth hidden under the hood sank faintly: "I remember that there is a mole under the earlobe of the gods." ”
Zong Ye suddenly looked up at the Great Emperor of the Northern Yin Dynasty. No matter what his relationship with this god is, as long as he is not this person, not Wen Yun's great-grandfather, not the person who caused the tragedy in Yaobu Village, not the saint in the Weiming Palace, he seems to have hope?
Bai Luo looked at Zong Ye with a look of half horror and half joy and said, "You are you, he is him." There was nothing gratifying in the first place. ”
Xue Yu also walked over and patted Zong Ye's shoulder: "Bai Luo is right. Whenever you have to find out clearly, you can think about it. ”
"Yes. Zong Ye lowered his eyes and replied, but under the cover of his long eyelashes, there was some mist in his eyes. There are Bai Luo, Xue Yu, Jiang Qinghan, Ye Ming and Xie Jinyan, what regrets are there in this life? Even if he was called a saint in the Weiming Palace, even if he was exactly the same as the person on the picture scroll at this time, they never questioned him.
Xue Yu saw that Bai Luo had been staring at the statue of Shaking Light Xingjun and asked, "Bai Ranxi, you have been staring at Shaking Light Xingjun like this." If someone finds out, I'm afraid it's going to be misunderstood. ”
"I think he's ugly. Bai Luo said lightly.
"Well, he'll probably be angry when he hears it. ”
The top of the head of the Shaking Light Star Monarch was almost to the top of the cave, looking at Bai Luo condescendingly, his facial features were illuminated by the sun, and two shadows were cast under his two eyes, which looked even stranger.
Bai Luo looked at the feet of the statue along the top of the head of the Shaking Light Star Monarch, and suddenly a spiritual light flashed in his mind: "Ask Yun, you said that this Star Monarch Temple was originally like this?
Wen Yun nodded: "That's true." Yaobu Village has been guarding this Xingjun Temple and astrolabe for generations. If it weren't for my great-grandmother, the astrolabe would still be here. ”
Bai Luo's blue pupils were slightly cold: "Has the statue been moved, such as repairing?"
Wen Yun also seemed to see that there was something wrong with the statue: "When my grandfather expanded this Star Monarch Temple to the outside half, it was repaired. ”
Bai Luo smiled coldly: "Xue Hawan, don't you think the base of this idol is a little smaller?"
As soon as the words fell, a golden light flashed in Bai Luo's palm, and the idol was split in two by the tiger spirit in response. There's another idol in the idol!
The stone of the idol that was to be shattered was completely detached. Everyone gasped. Among this idol is another statue of the Shaking Star King. Judging by the ratio of the base to the idol, it may be the real idol.
But there was a man tied to the real idol!
A man who looks exactly like the statue of God!
"Shake the light!" Xue Yu jumped in front of the idol with an arrow step. When Xue Yu landed in front of the statue, Bai Luo had already whipped through the iron chain that bound the Shaking Light Star Monarch.
With a "click", the iron chain fell to the ground, and the Shaking Light Star Monarch also fell into Xue Yu's arms. As soon as Xue Yu's hand caught the pulse of the Shaking Light Star Monarch, he felt that something was wrong. Xue Yu was shocked in his heart, and ripped open the placket of the Shaking Light Star Monarch's clothes, and there was a scar on his heart.
Xue Yu's heart was cold: "The spirit bead that shook the light is gone." ”
