173 There is no going back
Human memory is fantastical and suspenseful.
They grow in the bloodstream, disperse, aggregate, disperse, and repolymerize in the direction they should be. They flow through your nerves, bone marrow, ear canal, pupils. Every time we meet, they are all fragments and irregular sections.
The light that slipped into the reflection of the memory was withdrawn, and the mood was jerky and the tone was blurred...... The eyebrows and eyes are like a mist.
β¦β¦
After waking up, Ji You opened his eyes and saw that he took off the black robe and hat on his head in front of him, revealing the face of an ambitious and calculating castle lord, as if he was in a different world.
"Wuhuan ...... Castle Lord. Ji You looked at the man and called out his name accurately.
There was a look of satisfaction in the man's eyes, "Hehehe, yes, yes, it seems that you finally remembered everything, right?" What do you think? Wasn't very excited, my old friend from a thousand years ago. β
ββ¦β¦β
Ji You, who was just about to say something, flashed a few times in his left eye, and the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone seemed to be warning something, but his mind was too confused to hear clearly.
"Who's ......"
Wu Huan's eyes were fixed on Ji You's reaction and asked, "...... What did you say? β
"Who...... ...... with you" Ji You's cold sweat kept sliding down his forehead, and his face was not much better than Fang Cai, or even worse. He staccato the emotions he wanted to express.
ββ¦β¦ What a friend......"
"Oh roar, that's sorry, I thought-" Wuhuan approached Ji You's left eye, "like us, the only two people who were hunted down to the ends of the earth, can be more or less half a friend." β
"......" Ji You gasped, secretly feeling the energy in his body, and on the surface he didn't want to pay more attention to him.
"How?" Wuhuan still instigated in a consultative tone. "Why don't we join forces after a thousand years?"
ββ¦β¦ Hum. Ji You's eyes flowed, and his mood was a little settled. It's not that you can't...... But I've just regained some memory, can you stop dangling in front of my eyes, eat? Wait for me to rest for a while, and then think about cooperation. β
"Sure enough, this is your former character, selfish, not easily trusting others, sensitive and suspicious."
Wu Huan finally stopped making unnecessary temptations, looked at his still not very good face, laughed and walked away.
When he left and closed the door, the two waiters beside him came over with a tray, and one of them freed his hand to prepare for ......
The corners of Ji You's mouth twitched, raised his head, tilted his head, and leaned back against the chair and said sarcastically:
"No, don't tell me, you're going to let me have my hands tied like this, and then ...... You're here to feed me? β
The two robed humanoid spirits looked at each other, as if wondering why not, but the young man's expression was ridiculous, and they couldn't help but stop moving.
"I'm sorry, whether it's me after amnesia, or I've regained my memory, I don't have the habit of letting people get so close, let alone ......"
Ji You's left eye moved, and the phoenix soul spirit stone shook violently in it for a moment, and in the next second, the two waiters who didn't react were slammed into the wall, of course, along with the plates in their hands.
As a result, there will be three smashed pits in the wall. The distance is quite even, Ji You blinked, thinking in his heart. Merely...... The latter two pits are deeper than the first.
When there was nothing to eat, the two waiters looked at each other, got up from the ground, and with a wave of their hands, took away all the scraps, and went out to find their master.
Otherwise, there is no other way.
The order they received was to let the young man inside eat and rest, but now they can't get close, there is no food, and the task cannot be completed.
As a result, their master, the Wuhuan Castle Lord who had once dominated the party, was not angry, he didn't even go too far, and his expression was still happy when he saw them come out in embarrassment.
"Angry?"
The two attendants immediately knelt down and trembled, "Yes, his subordinates are incompetent and cannot approach him...... He suddenly ......"
"Okay, okay, let's go get some more good dishes and come back!" As soon as Wuhuan was happy, he burst out of the once used way of speaking, and the whole person also revealed a kind of ancient temperament.
"When the time comes, he can fall as much as he wants, don't stop him, you can listen to whatever he says, except that you can't let him leave half a step!"
The two subordinates listened to the order in a daze.
Then, Wuhuan was talking to himself, and glanced at the door of the room not far away: "It seems that the rest is a matter of time." β
β¦β¦
Ji You really dropped a dish as expected, raised his fingers a little, and shouted:
"Damn, what is this going to give me, the heir of the Phoenix God, something to eat?! What about the brain?! If I were your castle master, I would have wiped you out long ago! β
The two poor subordinates had just cleaned up the ground and were about to take out another dish, when they heard this, they immediately shuddered.
ββ¦β¦β
Oh my God, master...... Even if the two heirs of the Phoenix God have been heard from you for thousands of years, their personalities are very different, but ...... This one is terrifying, isn't it?!
After the amnesia and before the memory is restored, it's like two people!!
The main thing is that the personality is particularly capable of doing it, forget it, and ...... Still...... The force value is still so terrifying!!!
Ji You didn't care about the psychological activities of these two people, he looked irritable, looked at the stiff backs of the two subordinates, and suddenly changed his mind, and said:
"Hey, you guys."
The two of them turned around and asked respectfully and quickly: "What, what do you command!" β
"......" Ji You's eyes narrowed, and he shook his wrist that was still fixed on the chair and couldn't move, because of the long-term confinement, there were already several red marks, reflected on the white skin, and it looked like blood was about to drip out from afar.
"I said, since I'm considering whether or not to cooperate with your castle master, can you also show your sincerity? This thing- weird, right? I've just burned it with the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone for a long time, and the lock cylinder inside seems to be very special? β
The two subordinates looked at each other: "......"
"Why, haven't you castle masters already calculated everything? Aren't you just waiting for me to nod and cooperate? This thing is good for me who has regained my memory...... It doesn't threaten, it only makes the relationship more strained. β
Since Ji You regained his memory, his left eye had stayed in the state of the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone appearing, and when he was talking, he swept it with his eyes, and the two subordinates didn't know what was going on, and they felt an indescribable sense of threat......
They thought for a moment and said, "My master did say that as long as you don't want to escape, we can follow your orders. β
Ji You snorted coldly, looked at his wrist, and raised his eyes, "Then what are you waiting for?" β
Since Wuhuan dares to say this, this room must be specially made for him, the successor, right? It's like the two things on his wrist that hold him in place...... Same purpose.
The so-called, it is difficult to fly with wings?
The two subordinates heard Ji You's rhetorical question without hesitation, and suddenly felt that their master must have made the right bet this time.
This young man, who inherited half of the divine power of the Phoenix God, not only recovered his memory, but also had the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone on his body, even if he didn't want to cooperate, he couldn't leave this place, after all, ......
"Okay, we promise you, wait a minute."
Ji You walked over after seeing the two of them finish speaking, his eyes drooping slightly.
I don't know what method they used, but there is no doubt that the black light cluster in their hands at the moment should have originated from that Wuhuan Castle Lord.
Since regaining his memory, he still has this ability.
Estimate that Wuhuan ...... When there was a glimmer of life left, he fled, and in order to take revenge, he practiced the opposite of the previous exercises-
Devil's Path.
The confinement was lifted, and the two subordinates did not forget how they were collapsed against the wall by Ji You before, and immediately left his irritability range.
"Snort......" Ji You sneered, turned his wrist, and touched it gently. Well, I need a quiet and safe time to eat and rest, and I ask you two to stand guard outside the door, and I'll call you if there's something to do. β
The two were stunned: "Ah, this is ......"
"What's wrong?" Ji You frowned again. "I said I don't want to run away, you know, where else can I go now? Hehe, I'm thankful to him for helping me regain my memory......"
"Anyway, when I'm done eating and resting, the matter of cooperation is almost the same, you should have heard that one of the inheritors is a freewheeling character, although in your eyes it is willful and selfish, in my case, that is, whoever makes me comfortable, I don't mind giving something back."
After hearing this, the two finally nodded, "Okay, then if you have anything, you must tell me to wait." β
Ji You didn't bother to listen to their chatter, waved his hand, slowly stood up, knocked on some stiff muscles, and when the two finally closed the door, his movements immediately stopped.
The room is somewhat of a retro medieval dΓ©cor, with a bow-shaped dome with intricate patterns carved into it, and a golden light illuminates the room in all directions.
And Ji You, standing in the center, motionless, stared at the shadow under his feet, his eyes flashing slightly.
He...... Anything...... Come to think of it......
So, everything ...... I can't go back.
No matter what the agreement is with the red-clothed imp with an incomplete soul and a broken memory...... Or is it the same as that...... His teammates who couldn't rest assured......
After all, after knowing that he had regained his memory, it must have been the entire Anomalies world, especially those who were in the events of the year...... Surely the first reaction was to kill him, right?
No...... No, to be precise, it should be said that it is to extract his soul as a ...... The sacrifice of the Phoenix God to regain Nirvana.
"Hahahaha......"
Ji You suddenly laughed softly, shook his head and said, "I really forgot everything......
Immediately after that, he lowered his head, and at the same time told the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone to probe if there was anyone watching here.
Then he pulled out the ugly gray stone that had been hanging from his neck from behind his clothes, and his heart trembled, and his hand gripped it hard.
He closed his eyes and said in his heart, "Uncle...... That's probably ...... It's the only thing I can do for Phoenix before the time comes. β
Yes, until Fang Cai, Ji You had already known through the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone that the image of his uncle's repentance that appeared in the resort before, Zhihai, was actually ......
It is the image he left behind during his lifetime, and it will only be triggered at a critical time.
His uncle, a year earlier, died.
In other words, from the moment he met him, the uncle was destined to leave this world early.
His uncle's real name is not called Yan Shu, his name is Lian Cheng, and he was the first villager of Youxian Village thousands of years ago.
And everything...... That is, the god of the phoenix, and the children he rescued were all from Youxian Village.
Everything that happened thousands of years ago, the source of all the tragedies, happened there.
Sorry, uncle, I ......
Ji You opened his eyes again, opened his fingers, and a large piece of Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone appeared in his palm, and the powder covered by the gray stone was scattered around it.
He blew lightly, and the dust on and around it quickly disappeared, leaving only a bright red ball.
ββThis is the core of the Phoenix Soul Spirit Stone.
It turned out that this thing had always been on him, and even when he first went to the EA Alliance, the people at the Institute of Steld did not detect a trace of the problem.
After all, this was temporarily sealed by Uncle Lian Cheng, and he was a connoisseur of seals.
It is estimated that when he found himself four years ago, he always wanted to find an opportunity to seal this time bomb on his body, right? But in fact, his uncle knows very well that sealing can't solve any problems-
For example, I can't be discovered by those who want to catch me with a thousand cuts, and for example, I can't hide for a long time that my abilities are too special......
Uncle he, since the tragedy a thousand years ago, wanted to stop it, but ......
Ji You didn't think about it anymore, and the more he thought about it, the more his heart ached. His uncle wanted to end it all, but someone didn't want to......
He raised his hand and put the red translucent round ball in front of his left eye, and immediately entered it automatically, and the original large piece of phoenix soul spirit stone was already impatient.
There was no trace of pain in this fusion, Ji You knew, because he was not the one who forgot everything and rejected this spirit stone from the bottom of his heart, he now remembered everything from a thousand years ago.
I finally figured out what I had been unable to figure out before.
He exhaled a long breath of turbidity, walked to the place where a whole long table of food was placed, picked up chopsticks, and casually looked at the feeling good and picked up and ate something.
As soon as I swallowed this saliva, I felt someone coming.
As soon as he looked up, he saw the Wuhuan Fort Lord walking over slowly, still wearing the robe that was a little black and a little gray, he looked at Ji You's expression, and said:
"Looks like you've already made a decision, right? So, I, the old castle master, would it be an honor to listen to your decision? β
Ji You wiped his mouth, threw the handkerchief on the table casually, raised his eyes to look at him, and said coldly without mercy:
"I can't."
The two subordinates next to the castle lord immediately changed their expressions: "......"
"Hahaha......" but Wuhuan laughed heartily without surprise. I knew that if it was really you, it would definitely be this kind of angry temperament. β
"Okay, then I know, then, when are we going to go? You think. β
Ji You glanced at him, "At any time, I'm not hungry or thirsty right now anyway, but ...... I hope that before leaving, you will consider changing your costume, Castle Master, right? β
"Oh? How so? β
"This robe...... It's dirty...... I have a habit of cleanliness, and the lord of the castle kisses me. β
