Chapter 140: Ancient Demon Spirit
Lao Bai wanted to speak and stopped, looking a little hesitant.
Seeing this, Wu Bencao hurriedly urged: "If you see anything, just say it, don't hide it!"
Lao Bai frowned slightly, "I'm not sure about the truth, but I just feel that there is a trace of beast aura lurking in her body, and when she plays with Xiao Ti, the aura is more obvious." Xiao Greasy should also have a sense, but it is far lower than me, but it is close to her, and I don't know the reason. ”
This delicate relationship is indescribable, just like when you meet someone one day, you feel inexplicably cordial, as if you have met somewhere, but you can't remember anything. The edge of your eyes is ethereal, and it's hard to be sure if you've really met the other person, and why you have this illusion.
The closeness between Xiao Yi and Xiao Ai is like this.
Wu Bencao faintly understood, "You mean, they smell the same because Xiao Ai has the breath of a demon beast in her body, which makes Xiao Yi feel kind?"
He suddenly remembered that when the system released Xiao Yu, he had said something similar.
That day, Meng'er also said that they smelled the same, and guessed that it seemed to be related to the primeval beast.
Tonight, he combined Lao Bai and Meng'er's statements, and gradually came to an unbelievable conclusion: Xiao Ai has the breath of an ancient fierce beast in his body!
Xiao Ai put down the chopsticks, suddenly rubbed his eyes, and his eyes became confused, "Brother, I'm suddenly so sleepy, I want to go to sleep......"
Wu Bencao put away his thoughts, "You take care of Wang Xiang for a day, and you're tired, go and rest!"
Lao Bai glanced at Xiao Ai casually and asked, "With your amount of food, it's not a problem to eat these dumplings, right? Now that you haven't even eaten half of it, you just go to sleep, don't you feel hungry?"
Xiao Ai stood up, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm not very hungry tonight, you can talk." ”
With that, she left the room.
At this time, Wu Bencao and Lao Bai looked at each other, and they both saw each other's shock.
Xiao Ai, who is addicted to eating, is unusually tonight, and he can't even lift his spirits when he eats, so he wants to go to sleep, there must be a ghost in it!
Lao Bai's expression was solemn, as if he was afraid of being heard by Xiao Ai, and when he sat opposite Wu Bencao, he still chose to use his divine thoughts to transmit sounds.
"Now I understand, why don't I want to say it? If my judgment is correct, there is really an evil thing in her body, then, it is more accurate to say that the possessed evil thing is not a trace of breath, but a trace of remnant soul, a living demon beast soul!"
When Wu Bencao heard this, his eyes trembled fiercely, and he almost exclaimed.
He got up and walked to the door, and after confirming that there was no one outside, he walked back behind closed doors and stared at Lao Bai tightly, "I understand, you were worried just now, if you tell the truth in front of her, it will make the demon spirit in her body hear it, and startle the snake?!"
If that thing is a living thing, alert to Wu Bencao and the others discovering the truth and trying to get rid of it, then no one knows what kind of response it will take, and whether it will threaten Xiao Ai's life.
Lao Bai continued to use his divine thoughts to transmit the sound, and replied: "She is suddenly not hungry, and she is sleepy, it cannot be ruled out that the demon spirit is haunting, seeing that I suspect it, I put away my greedy appetite." I just said that I wanted to test the temptation and test my guess. ”
Wu Bencao took a deep breath, recalled Xiao Ai's state just now, and said gloomily: "It seems that you guessed right." ”
The demon spirit realized Lao Bai's strength, afraid that he would perceive a flaw, and his true form would be revealed, so he hurriedly put away his domination over Xiao Ai. As everyone knows, this emergency response is precisely the biggest flaw, so that Xiao Ai is no longer dominated by hunger and temporarily returns to normal.
Lao Bai said secretly: "I stared at Xiao Ai just now, and I watched intently for a while, but I couldn't find the specific location where that thing was hidden. Don't you know, according to the cultivation world, I follow the path of strength, sanctification of the body, and Taoist supernatural powers such as soul searching, which is not my specialty. ”
He mentioned a holy word, but at this moment, Wu Bencao only wanted to help his sister heal, and he didn't care about these details.
"And, my biggest concern is that even if we can determine the location of the wraith, we won't be able to take it. It has lived in your sister's body for so many years, and in a way, the two have long been inseparable from each other. Rat-throwing, that's the most troublesome!"
As a traverser, Wu Bencao has studied biology and naturally knows the benefits and disadvantages.
"If that's the case, then I'm afraid there is no cure for this disease......"
Symbiosis refers to the formation of a close and mutually beneficial relationship between two organisms and their coexistence. As partners, one party provides the other party with help that is conducive to survival, and at the same time receives help from the other. If they are separated from each other, they often cannot survive.
The reason why Xiao Ai is constantly hungry is to deliver nutrients to the demon spirit to ensure its survival. And last time, Xiao Ai advanced by leaps and bounds, just by taking medicinal food, he was promoted to three times in a row, and now in retrospect, it should be that the demon spirit knows the dependence of both sides, and if he wants to live for a long time, he has to help Xiao Ai become stronger.
The so-called cultivation by eating is very likely to be the credit of that demon spirit!
So, should this disease still be treated? Should Xiao Ai's pain be alleviated while also erasing her talent for cultivating by eating?
Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, and this symbiotic relationship is really difficult to separate.
Wu Bencao patted his face to keep himself calm and said, "So far, there is only one symptom of my sister's illness, that is, hunger, and there is no other pain. But her ability to perfectly absorb the true element is also unmatched, if it were you, how would you choose?"
Lao Bai sighed, a little helpless, "You also said it, this is just the current situation." How can we be sure that that thing will be settled forever and will not be able to move an inch? I can be sure that it is still very weak and does not have a climate, so it has to hide and use Xiao Ai to eat. But what about later?"
If you continue to eat like this, one day, the demon spirit will grow stronger and regain its former power. At that time, will it still be willing to be a parasite and live by looking at Xiao Ai's face? What if it wants to rebel against the guest and occupy this body?
Wu Bencao didn't expect this, and replied: "I know that people have no long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries. Since it is a demon, sooner or later there will be a day when ambition will swell. But what can I do? As you just said, you preach the Tao with your strength, and you don't have a problem with it. ”
Lao Bai's divine soul is very powerful, but healing is different from fighting, and he can't use brute force. No matter how strong his divine soul is, as long as he doesn't have the law and the means are not clever enough, he can't guarantee Xiao Ai's safety. If you act rashly and cause the jade to burn, it is better to give up the attempt and get by.
Hearing Wu Bencao's difficulties, Lao Bai was speechless and fell silent.
The two big men frowned and pondered, and sat for a long time.
At a certain moment, Lao Bai's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly said: "What I can't do, in this world, there are still people who can do it." As long as you are willing to make up your mind to help her eradicate the disease, there may be a place that can help you. ”
Wu Bencao raised his head suddenly, his eyes shot out of essence, "Where?"
Lao Bai said awe-inspiringly: "Xitian." ”
