Chapter 179: Cannibalism
Lu Yunhan didn't answer, he was still a little hesitant, it was not a good thing to know too much.
Just like him, ever since he knew these things, he had lived in anxiety.
He didn't dare to get too close to Lu Jiyao, nor did he dare to get close to Jin Qiaozi, he was afraid that one day he would not be able to control the demons that might exist in his body.
"If you don't tell me, I'll find out the truth, so why bother me with all the effort? Tell me sooner that I can still figure it out. Lu Jiyao saw that he was hesitant and persuaded him.
Lu Yunhan was right when he thought about it, he always unconsciously regarded Lu Jiyao as a child who had not grown up, because the relationship was not close, and he directly sent someone to follow and monitor him to protect him according to his own ideas, which seemed indeed inappropriate.
Lu Jiyao is twenty-eight years old.
At his age, Lu Yunhan himself is already a father.
At about his age, the problem began to get worse.
He also learned from his father why the Lu family did not live to be sixty years old and had few children.
Because of this devouring ability.
Lu Yunhan looked at Lin Yulin, thinking that Lu Jiyao was very nervous about her, and thinking of Lin Yulin's background, he didn't ask her to avoid it.
He decided to tell his son what his father had said.
The first person in the Lu family ancestor to awaken the devouring ability went back two hundred years.
At that time, it was only one of the several children of the Lu family who awakened this terrifying ability.
Because of this ability, the child is considered "ominous."
After a few years, several other children disappeared one by one.
The only person who is regarded as "ominous" has become the only seedling of the Lu family.
There was no way, the Lu family could only devote the strength of the whole clan to cultivating him.
At first, some people questioned whether he was a ghost, killing his brother and killing his brother, but no matter who asked him, he only got a very positive answer: "I don't know." ”
The man who said this had no evidence, and then he did not die.
Life went on like this, and then the man married a wife and had children, and made great achievements, which went very smoothly, and there was nothing abnormal.
thought that he would die like an ordinary person in his life, but one day when he was about to turn sixty, he also disappeared.
Left behind a codex before disappearing.
His son looked through the Codex and realized that the side effect of Devouring was that one day he would lose control of his body, as if someone in his body had been dormant trying to take it away.
He wrote in the codex that the day he felt he was about to lose control of himself was when he committed suicide.
In fact, his son had been awakened for many years at that time, and he had a faint feeling of strangeness, but he was still shocked when he saw the Codex.
The codex was passed down from generation to generation, and each generation copied and added and annotated some of its own symptoms and opinions, gradually becoming thicker and thicker.
Lu Yunhan's father was just over 60 years old when he died, and he had always been in good health, but he told Lu Yunhan that he couldn't hold on.
Later, his father chose to devour his own heart, cutting off the possibility of being taken advantage by another personality, and ending his own life.
"So, several of his cousins, did he kill them with his devouring ability?" Lu Jiyao didn't know how to evaluate it.
"The Codex says that he had just awakened, that he had no one to guide him, that he couldn't control the other personality, that the other personality did it with the devouring ability.
Later, he had a child, and after the child awakened the devouring ability, he almost couldn't control it several times. After Lu Yunhan finished speaking, the hall fell silent for a while.
"I'll go and show you the transcript of the Codex!" So saying, he walked towards the study, where the codex was now broken, but fortunately there was a copy of it in every generation.
"Brother Ji Yao, do you think what the codex says is true?" Lin Yulin saw that Lu Yunhan was gone, and asked Lu Jiyao on the side.
Lu Jiyao thought for a while and said, "I think it's half-true!" I think the ancestor may have killed his siblings by himself, and then under the stimulus, it is impossible to say that a second personality appeared.
As for wanting to attack the awakened child, this should be true, and he may have had a few times at that time, and he could not take advantage of the signs of a dominant personality.
It is very likely that before he made a move on his child, he switched back to that normal personality, so he became vigilant. ”
Lin Yulin thought back to Lu Jiyao's abnormal state a few times, and felt that it was not multiple personalities, "Your abnormal state seems to be different." I think you're still you, it's just that the emotions are darkened, I mean, some extreme emotions. ”
"I feel the same myself, not like a second personality, but like an emotional fragment." Lu Jiyao nodded in agreement.
Not long after, Lu Yunhan went and returned, holding a booklet in his hand, and the cover page read "Lu Qing's Codex".
Lu Qing is the name of the ancestor of the Lu family.
"You have this problem too?" Lu Jiyao took the transcription codex, asked casually, and began to flip through it.
Lu Yunhan was silent for a long time, and finally replied, "Yes." Just the year your mom had an accident, I don't seem to have a memory for a while. It was only later that I asked others to find out that something was wrong. ”
He glanced up at Lu Jiyao slightly, as if he was worried that he thought he was shirking responsibility and making up excuses.
Lu Jiyao just paused with his hand flipping through the book, and there was no obvious change in expression.
In his heart, there was actually no big feeling, after all, the damage caused by those things was irreparable, and he had no right to blame Lu Yunhan for his evasive attitude.
If he had encountered it, he might not have been able to stand the stimulation, right?
Besides, according to the codex and grandfather's words, Lu Yunhan won't last long, he is the same age as Song Ke this year.
No, Lu Jiyao stopped moving, Tang Yang's medicine, if it can clear the ability, maybe it can also cure this problem.
The premise is that this dual personality is inherited along with the devouring ability, as the ancestors said.
Speaking of which, it seems that none of the supernatural people have a particularly long life, and Vice Minister Ren is nearly seventy years old and has begun to focus on cultivating his successor.
His grandfather Cen Luo and Lin Yulin's grandfather Song Ke are nearly eighty years old, and they don't seem to have a few years left.
Does the symbiosis of bacteria, in addition to supernatural abilities, also have an impact on longevity?
Thinking of this, he felt that it would be better to explain the matter of the purifier to Lu Yunhan first.
He put the codex away, "I'll take this codex away and read it slowly." ”
Lu Yunhan naturally wouldn't object, but seeing that Lu Jiyao didn't have a superfluous expression on his face, he felt very uncomfortable.
"If you have any questions about devouring abilities, you can ask me." He added.
"No, this ability is very easy to control, but you need to send someone to deal with the follow-up problems." Lu Jiyao had already told Lu Yunhan about the main part of the HVAC system that had been swallowed up on the phone.
