Chapter 319: A Tragic Past
Things have to start with Huang Zeyu being hunted down by his eldest brother Long Qing and the people of the Snake Clan.
"At that time, I had been hunted by them for more than a hundred years. The people of the Serpent do not know that I carry with me what my father has handed down to me. They hunted me down, just on the orders of my eldest brother. β
On the bench in the hospital corridor, Huang Zeyu told Yi Feng and them about the past again.
"In the first few years, it was okay, my eldest brother didn't push me too hard, he thought I would give him things if he scared me. Later, he found out that I didn't give him death, so he really killed me. That time, I was chased by him and his men for two days and two nights. β
"Then I got into an argument with them and there was a fight. My eldest brother was so angry that he badly injured me. I took a breath and ran to the edge of a cliff, and without thinking about it, I jumped straight off the cliff. β
Speaking of the past, Huang Zeyu's brows did not stretch for a moment.
"At that time, I jumped with the mentality that if I died, I would be a hundred, and if I didn't die, I would survive. Perhaps it was God's favor, or perhaps it was the blessing of my father, queen mother, and the heavenly spirit, that I did not die, and drifted down the river below the cliff to a village. β
"It was an old fisherman who rescued me and brought me home. In addition to the old fisherman, the family also had his wife and a pair of children. When I recovered, I was going to leave the village, but when the family saw that I was homeless, they told me to stay. As long as they have a bite to eat, it won't make me hungry. β
"I had been nursing to their house for half a year, and they didn't know I was a snake demon, so I hid it from them. But both they and the villagers there are very simple and kind. That was my first contact with human beings, and my father once told me that there are good and bad human beings, the good ones are very good, and the bad ones can be worse than our snake clan. β
"That was the first time I questioned my father's words, and there was not a single bad human being I had ever met. I lived happily there, the happiest time I've ever had since I became a demon. In that village, no one discriminated against my bloodline, no one oppressed me. They treated me like a family. β
"I stayed because I loved that place. Later, I lived in that village for two years, and the old fisherman wanted to marry my daughter to me, and at that time, I didn't know what love was. But I know that I love being with that girl. β
When he said this, Huang Zeyu's brows finally relaxed, and there was even a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. Yi Feng and they could all see that those days were probably the happiest time for Huang Zeyu.
"On the night we got married, the whole village came to congratulate us. It was a lively night and everyone was happy for our family. β
"But ......"
As he spoke, Huang Zeyu's brows, which had just stretched, furrowed deeply again.
His expression was even a little hideous.
"But that night, before the girl and I had time to visit the church, my eldest brother Long Qing came to the door. He took my father's old ministry and slaughtered the entire village, including the old fisherman's family and my fiancΓ©e, who was about to marry me. β
"That night, I was seriously injured again, and I tried desperately to protect the villagers. However, I am not Long Qing's opponent at all, not even my father's old subordinates. I was so weak that I watched the villagers die in front of me. β
"Long Qing didn't want my life, he still wanted to get that kind of thing from me. After that, they took me back and imprisoned me. β
Speaking of this, Huang Zeyu took a deep breath and trembled all over. He hung his head, still looking extremely self-reproachful. On that occasion, he implicated the entire village, including the family of the old fishermen who took him in.
After hearing this, Yi Feng and the others were also a little stunned.
When Huang Zeyu talked about these past events, he almost mustered up the courage to say it. Maybe these things have been holding on to his mind for a long time.
"Some of my father's old subordinates are sincere to Longqing, but there are also insincere. But due to the situation, he could only succumb to Long Qing. At that time, I was imprisoned by Long Qing for a whole year, and he tortured me every day, forcing me to ask me about the whereabouts of my things, and I didn't tell him. β
"Later, one of my father's most loyal old subordinates, I called him Second Uncle. He secretly entered the place where Longqing was holding me and secretly released me. I escaped from the snake clan again, and that time, I recuperated from my wounds for a full fifty years, but Long Qing still didn't let me go. β
Huang Zeyu blamed himself and said:
"At that time, I also thought about avenging the old fisherman's family and those villagers, but I was not Long Qing's opponent at all, I was too small. If I want to deal with him, I will have to face most of the snake clan. β
"Since then, I have traveled everywhere and have been cultivating non-stop, hoping that one day I will be able to take revenge."
"In the years since, I have met many human beings who are as kind as the old fisherman's family, although I have also met many wicked people that my father said. But in my opinion, in this world, whether it is a human or an animal, there are good and bad. And there are always more good people than bad people. β
"I have been cultivating for hundreds of years, and in those hundreds of years, Long Qing has never given up looking for me. During that time, I also avoided him, and I was not sure, I could not have met him face to face. I'm afraid that if he captures me again, I'll never have a chance to take revenge. β
"Hundreds of years later, there was finally a day when I wasn't ready to hide anymore, and I felt like I was sure I could win him. At the very least, I feel like I'm worthy of dying with him. β
Hearing this, Yi Feng and they knew that Huang Zeyu must have failed again. Otherwise, Long Qing would not have survived until now.
Sure enough, I only heard Huang Zeyu sigh and say:
"But I still underestimated the powerful bloodline of the nine-headed python, not to mention, Long Qing is a sinister and cunning person, he ambushed my father's old ministry nearby."
"At that time, I was killed by Long Qing, but I also injured him. He stopped fighting, summoned the old troops, and I was besieged again. At that time, Long Qing also told me that the person who secretly let me go in the first place, that is, my second uncle, had been killed by him. β
Huang Zeyu tried to restrain his emotions and choked up:
"That time I was almost certain to die, but because I learned of my second uncle's death, it stimulated me. I used my last breath to force myself out of my body and escaped again. I fled for a long distance without stopping, and finally escaped to a mountain, where I fell unconscious in a dense forest. At that time, I was already angry, and the demonic energy was almost gone, and just when I thought I was going to die, I met another nobleman. β
"Maybe it's because I shouldn't die, that noble man is just like a god, his length is younger than mine, but his cultivation is unfathomable. I was only treated by him for two days and my injuries were almost healed. I didn't want to mention how shocked I was, I thought I had met a god in the lower realm, so I begged him to help me restore my cultivation, and I even wanted to worship him as a teacher. β
"But it's a pity that he said that he had no choice but to let me rebuild my lost cultivation. Moreover, he did not intend to take me as an apprentice. I begged him for a long time, but he didn't answer, and it was only in later conversations that I learned his name. β
He said his name was Ling Xiaozi and he had lost his memories of the past. He only remembered his name, and that he was going down the mountain to find his former lover. He is gracious to me, and I cannot force him to take me as a disciple, so I can only do it. β
"After a few more days, he and I broke up on that mountain, and he went down the mountain to find his former lover, and I ran to the deep mountains and old forests to hide alone."
Yi Feng and the others were shocked when they heard it, and they were very fascinated. I didn't expect Huang Zeyu's experience to be so bizarre and bumpy, and full of creation.
Listen to Huang Zeyu continue again:
"After I hid at that time, I continued to cultivate, and I still didn't let go of the idea of revenge. I went into retreat for 200 years, and I was able to return most of my cultivation to the fullest, but because the injury was so severe, I never returned to the peak. β
"I left the place where I cultivated and entered the world again. When I re-entered the WTO, it was already a modern society. I know that with my current ability, it is impossible to get revenge, but if I wander outside, I will always be found by Long Qingxian. β
"Then I came up with a way to keep me hidden from human society for a long time." Huang Zeyu said: "That is to seal my own body and seal the demonic energy on my body." β
"In this case, if Long Qing wants to find me again, it will really be like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Hearing this, Yi Feng couldn't help but interject:
"After that, you became like a child and found the Su family?"
