It didn't take long for the letter to be delivered, and Lao Lu and his wife came over in person. The group walked through the tunnel in order to avoid swagger, and the backyard immediately became empty and lifeless.

Looking at the piece of turf that had not been paved due to his hurry, Lihong had to do it himself.

When he was done, he suddenly glanced at the corner of the sky.

The road dug underground is straight, and the shortest distance connects the backyard of Caihualou and the mass grave. I don't know how many streets I have to turn and how many detours I have to take when I cross the main road.

However, Li Hong, who walked from the ground much faster than any of them, was the first to come to the stronghold where the main gate was closed.

He didn't go in, and he didn't bother to tear down the small hole in the door to see who was coming, just quietly waiting for someone to come.

The sun hung high, the meteors flew down, and the one who fell into the wilderness was an old man who came by crane.

He looked at Lihong and frowned slightly, but the latter laughed.

"How's your uncle doing?" Li Hong asked, slowly walking forward.

"Dead monster, who is your uncle!" The crane jumped down from the white crane, and with the help of mana, he floated slightly to a place higher than him, and smashed the hammer on the top of the opponent's head.

Li Hong didn't go to hide, he hit him hard, blinked his black and white eyes and said, "It's my father in the sky." ”

"Little devil, the old man is looking for you this time, just to ask where your father was buried and whether he left anything behind." Chenghe Weng descended to the ground, and found that he had not seen him for many years and was a head taller than himself, so he hurriedly stepped back, and it would not be so difficult to look up at him again.

"There's nothing left," Li Hong said, gesturing to his stomach, "I ate all of his bodies." ”

"Are you gluttonous, do you want to eat everything?" Chenghe Weng said angrily, "Don't laugh, tell me the truth!" ”

"It's delicious." Li Hong's face didn't look like he was joking at all.

Chenghe Weng pounced on him, pinned him to the ground, and rounded his arms to beat him up.

"That's it, I'll teach you a good lesson when I have enough time next time." The old man on the crane let him go again.

"He made me eat it, saying that I should make the best use of it and not waste it." Li Hong got up, patted away the dust, and waved his hand in front of him in disgust.

"You eat it when he tells you to? Are you a human or an animal? Seeing that there was no remorse on his face, the crane took hold of his collar again.

There was also doubt in Lihong's eyes, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

"Brute! Monster! Completely ruined! Chenghe Weng scolded loudly and sighed with emotion.

"Uncle, how do you know that I am still in the mortal realm?" Li Hong broke free from him as if nothing had happened, and while arranging his collar, he also helped the old man smooth his beautiful white beard that reached his chest.

Chenghe Weng sighed and said, "Although you are just an emotionless brute, the old Si Ming is the most optimistic about you...... Seeing that you are living so energetically, he should not be so worried anymore. ”

Although he said that he was an outsider, there was also a hint of relief in his eyes.

"At the Nether Equinox, it's best to think of yourself as a mortal. Don't learn to go to that crooked pontoon boat and do crazy things, and finally take your life into it. Chenghe Weng suddenly lowered his voice and instructed.

Li Hong laughed: "Crooked and heretical? In the eyes of the Heavenly Clan, there are still demons who are not crooked? ”

"Listen and do it, don't talk back!" Cheng Heweng put on the posture of an elder.

Li Hong obediently stopped refutating, looked at him and nodded with a complicated gaze. If the other party knew some of the things he planned with the floating boat, I wonder if he would be so angry that he would go crazy?

"The old man secretly ran down at the right time this time, and it would be very bad if he was discovered." The crane returned to the white crane, stroked its white feathers, and in a blink of an eye, he parted from him.

The white crane spread its wings, grew in size, and its wings were like hanging clouds, and the old man was easily carried on his back, and his long legs walked around the open space before gliding into the sky, and disappeared in an instant.

Li Hong looked back at the black lacquered gate, and the clansmen inside the door were silent, and they didn't dare to come out.

"You, even if I never came, I didn't see anything." He spoke in a light tone, but the people in the door took it as a death order.

It was a long time before the exit of the mass grave rumbled open.

A large group of cows, ghosts, snakes, gods, men and women came out. Although these people have their own shortcomings, they are inexplicably harmonious together. Duan Hongzhu, who was born to be happy, looked at these companions around him, and only felt a burst of warmth welling up in his heart, dispelling the fear and anxiety in his heart about his mother's uncertain life and death.

The siren of someone approaching had already sounded in the lobby of the base, and there were still a lot of people listening to the density of the sound.

Someone dismantled a brick and looked in the direction indicated by the instrument, and the two of them were Lao Lu and his wife, and they knew that they would not be any enemies.

This couple with extremely eccentric personalities actually got along with these demons like a fish in water, and they were not affected by the demonic qi at all. It's unbelievable to say, as if they were supposed to be people of the demon race, and one accidentally cast the wrong baby.

Duan Hongzhu was invited into the lobby, surrounded by demons, and an older elder was the representative, asking about her mother's name, appearance, and other characteristics that were easier to distinguish.

"My mother's name is Dangui, I was born at the age of eighteen, I was twenty-six years old when I left, and I heard that there was no change in appearance when I married the same person." She thought about it for a long time and told the elders about it.

"When people of the demon clan enter the mortal realm to live, most of them will use pseudonyms, and the word Dangui can't be found at all. The demons have a long lifespan, and it is true that there will be no significant changes in their faces in just a few years. Miss Duan, can you say something more special? The elder told her to think about it again.

Duan Hongzhu sat on the mound, surrounded by a circle of people, all waiting for her to continue. The more this happened, the more she felt that the memory of having a mother was too vague, and she couldn't remember anything.

"Are there any obvious birthmarks or wounds?" Lou Xue asked.

Duan Hongzhu finally noticed, and hit the other palm that was spread out, and his eyes affirmed: "She has a black tattoo on her arm, which is round, like a badge!" ”

This was an obvious clue, and the elder instructed someone to take pen and ink and asked her if she could draw a rough idea.

Duan Hongzhu picked up the pen, drew a circle first, and stopped when he got inside, and he couldn't write for a long time.

"It's too complicated, it's like a painting like a word and a pictogram, I can't remember it at all......" After a long time, she still put down the pen.

Ding Ruoyu stood aside and listened, and couldn't help but reach out and touch the back.

A small handful of long hair fell out of a bun, covering her slender neck, making it impossible to see what was on her spine below the collar.

She guessed that her tattoo was exactly the same as the one on the floating boat, both of which were inscrutable spells, and pretended to prompt inadvertently, "Could it be some rune?" ”

"Possibly!" It wasn't Duan Hongzhu who answered her, but the demon elder.

He said these three words with a crutch, and closed his eyes as if he were remembering something.

"The old man has seen similar insignia, which varies from person to person, appearing on different parts of the limbs and torso." His old, hoarse voice spoke slowly, recalling his past experiences as he spoke.

It is rumored that the people of the Three Realms who have this tattoo are all people who have been marked by the First Monarch of the Demon Realm, and they are usually not different from others, but this mark is engraved on the soul, and even if the body is replaced by evil magic, the same mark will appear on the new body in the same place.

Ding Ruoyu listened to him silently, and finally understood why the mark on the floating boat also appeared on his body.

"But there's more to it than that, and it's not clear why." The old man said helplessly, "For thousands of years so far, the old man has only seen two people with this mark on their bodies. ”

Duan Hongzhu looked at the circle on the paper, traced the half-dried ink on the edges, and suddenly raised his face again and said: "My mother likes red the most, she added red letters to my name, and she also likes red dresses." ”

Lou Xue sighed, rubbed her head like a child, and said, "Hong'er is not in a hurry, think slowly, we have time." ”

It's rare that Duan Hongzhu didn't realize her attitude of no big or small.

"It stands to reason that if you are chosen by the first king, you will not be a mediocre person, and you will definitely be able to play a special role in the future......" The old man was still discussing the tattoo mark with the rest of the people.

After discussing for a long time, Duan Hongzhu decided to stay in the demon stronghold with Lao Lu and his wife, and record the affairs of her mother at any time.

The rest of the Half-Heaven Clan and mortals were almost unable to withstand the strong demonic energy of this nest, and finally found a chance to go out to breathe, and in an instant, there was not even a shadow left.

Ding Ruoyu went straight to the outside of Lihong's room. The door of the house was half hidden, she pushed the door in, saw the light on, Li Hong was lying on the ground writing something, and saw her come in before slowly sitting up.

He didn't even have a table in his room, and he had to lie on his stomach to write. Fortunately, the wooden floor was well kept by him, and it was a necessary procedure to take off her shoes when she entered the door, and she had to do so before she came to sit beside him on the floor.

"You can come to my room next time to write, the table and chairs are ready, and you don't have to suffer this crime." She looked at her fists that were obediently placed on her knees.

"Okay." agreed so simply, it made her wonder if his difficult appearance was a pretense of gesture, specially planned this play, and waited for her to take the initiative to mention it after she couldn't get used to it.

"What's the matter with you?" He really had a part of this purpose, and after the effect was achieved, his attitude became impatient.

Ding Ruoyu turned his back, brushed aside the distribution, easily opened the collar, and pulled his shirt down.

Holding her with one hand, Li Hong coughed awkwardly and said, "Although we are already husband and wife, I am still young, and this kind of thing is not ...... time."

He's small? Is a person who is almost 1,600 years old still called young?

Even according to the age of the demons, they are about to be crowned!

She had never said such a thing at the age of fifteen, so where did he come from to be so justified?

Ding Ruoyu was almost choked by him and forgot what he was doing, and after sorting out his messy thoughts, he said: "Don't talk nonsense, I just want to ask what this tattoo represents!" ”

This time, Li Hong took the initiative to pull down a small section of her collar, stared at the round badge-like lines, and slowly admired after a while: "It's so exquisite." ”
