Chapter Seventy-Eight

At night, those monsters and ghosts in the Asagawa River all ran out, and after talking to Qingheng for a while, five or six monsters passed by.

After having a general direction, Nan He looked at Qing Heng and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to go back to the inn first?"

The man crouching on the ground and curled himself into a small ball nodded.

Nan He sighed, and instructed her before leaving: "Then you stay here and don't run around, I will bring your master back soon."

It's still very dangerous to say here, if you're not careful, you will be devoured by those monsters and ghosts, and occupy your body, Nan He walked a few steps and felt a little uneasy, so he turned back again.

A wisp of demonic energy emanated from her fingertips, and she summoned He Yuyuan out of the Soul Banner, asking him to temporarily take care of Qing Heng in a state of invisibility, and finally even left some demonic qi near her, with her as the center, spreading out to all around, protecting her safely.

After doing this, she walked to the place Qing Heng said again.

Nan He is afraid of ghosts, very scared, very afraid, she still remembers the ghost she met when she first came to Asakawa, and she prayed in her heart all the way not to let her meet, maybe the prayer is really useful, she has walked a long way, and she has not encountered any of them.

Although she didn't meet it, she didn't want to go forward at all, seeing that it was getting later and later, and those things would definitely appear more and more, and she wanted to go back at the thought of encountering them in a while.

Nan He stopped, she quietly felt the breath of Di He, but found that Di He's current position was not in front, but behind her.

She frowned suddenly, turned around with a blank expression, glanced in the direction from which her breath came, and then walked over suspiciously.

At the same time that Di He's figure appeared in her eyes, a hanged ghost passed by her, bringing a piercing chill, she didn't care at first, and when she walked over, she realized that she had just come next to something, and suddenly her hairs stood on end, and cold sweat came out.

Di He stood under a vine tree with small purple flowers, looking up and closing his eyes, not knowing whether he was recuperating his mind or meditating.

Nan He's face was a little pale when she was frightened by the hanging ghost just now, she didn't stay any longer, and walked quickly to him.

Once he was settled, he reached out his index finger and tapped it lightly on his arm.

When Di He opened his eyes, his eyes were very light, and there was no trace of expression on his face, he turned his head to look at her, and the moment he saw her, he looked back again.

"What's the matter with you!? I've been like this since I came out of the room, did I mess with you somewhere?! Obviously, he didn't have any expression on his face, but Nan He always felt that he had just glanced at her, and at that moment, a fire surged directly in her heart, and she couldn't help but get angry at him.

Di He glanced at her lightly, and said in a cold tone: "You don't know what happened to me."

Nan He frowned at that time, she took a deep breath, walked up to Di He and glared at him angrily and shouted, "Isn't it just that I was called Ah Yan!" That's not my name! Besides, what do you have to be angry about, still angry for so long! ”

Nan He really couldn't understand why he was angry.

After she shouted these words, Di He's eyelashes drooped, his eyes blinked a few times, and then lowered his head.

Nan He stood in front of him for a long time, but she didn't see him look up, and her anger almost disappeared, so she reached out and pulled his sleeve.

"Qing Heng is waiting for you to go back at the alley in front of the inn, it's not too early, we have to go to find the demon god tomorrow, go back!"

"......" Emperor He didn't react at all, and still stood there with his head down.

Seeing this, Nan He used his strength and wanted to pull him away, but the disparity in strength was huge, and although she tried her best, she couldn't make Di He move a little bit.

After struggling for a long time, I finally gave up.

She stood in front of Di He, leaning in and looking at him, and when she saw his eyelashes trembling slightly, she raised her hand and nodded at the center of his eyebrows: "Stinky little ghost, what's the matter with you!" How can you be disobedient after growing taller! ”

Emperor He was caught off guard for a while, and was nodded back by her.

Her brows furrowed and furrowed, and Di He raised her hand to grab the hand she hadn't had time to withdraw.

"I'm sorry."

The three words rushed into his ears, and Nan He was stunned.

She felt the hand that was holding her hand tighten, and she snapped back to her senses.

"Apologize suddenly, it's the right thing to go back quickly." I wanted to break free of his hand, but I couldn't.

Di He looked down at the hand that was moving in the palm of his hand, and his index finger tapped on the back of her hand, making her shake her mind for a while, and when she reacted again, the two of them had already interlocked their fingers.

"I don't know why, but my mind has been in turmoil lately, and I can always think of the past. Sometimes it was when I was with Master when I was still in Yangxu Palace, and sometimes it was when we lived in the Ghost Abyss. At first I couldn't understand why this was happening, but then I realized that these images appeared because there were you and Master in them, so it made me very distressed. ”

Nan He didn't ask him why he was distressed, because she could probably guess why.

"When I heard him call you Ah Yan today, I felt very uncomfortable, although I knew that she was not calling you, but I still felt uncomfortable."

“……”

"Forget it, I won't tell you this, even I can't figure it out myself, and you naturally can't understand it."

Seeing that she didn't react when she heard what she just said, Di He didn't want to say any more, he suppressed all the words he was going to say in his heart, looked at her and said, "Let's go!" Let's go back! ”

Nan He nodded, and after he turned around, followed him and walked back.

She knew what Di He hadn't finished speaking, but she always remembered what he had said to her before he broke through the memory seal, so she didn't believe that he was more inclined to herself in his heart.

Qingheng was still honestly squatting at the mouth of that alley, and He Yuyuan was still standing next to her in a stealthy state, leaning against the wall on the side boredly.

When he saw him from afar, Nan He let him return to the Soul Banner.

The already faint light in front of her was suddenly blocked, Qing Heng looked up in confusion, and stood up in surprise when she saw who was standing in front of her.

Di He's complexion was much more relaxed than when he came out, and Qing Heng subconsciously wanted to pull his arm, but suddenly remembered that he didn't like this, and the outstretched hand was taken back alive.

"Master, you're back!" She looked at Di He with a smile on her face and said.

"Hmm. Let's go back. Di He raised his hand and rubbed it on her head, and his tone was quite soft.

After returning to the inn, Nan He originally planned to open another room for her, but she refused.

"I'm a sword spirit, if you want to rest, just go back to the sword." Qing Heng stood behind Di He, poked his head out and said to her timidly.

"Is that okay?" Nan He asked, but this was asked by Emperor He.

After he nodded, Nan He didn't worry about it anymore, said to him, "Rest early" and then went upstairs and went back to the room.

After He Yuyuan returned to the Soul Flag, he had been looking for an opportunity to talk to her, and when he saw that she was finally alone at this time, he ran out of the Soul Flag.

Here, Nan He just lay down on the bed, and He Yuyuan's figure appeared beside the bed.

"Are you really going to find the demon god? The person you told you before was ......"

The voice stopped abruptly, and there was no one else in the room except Nan He.

Nan He didn't mean to talk to him at all, and Di He's words made her heart messy.

I lay on my side on the bed with my eyes open and thought about it for a while, but I couldn't come up with anything.

Nan He grabbed his hair irritably, forced himself not to think about it again, and then covered the quilt and closed his eyes.

Early the next morning, a knock on the door brought her back from her sleep.

After going downstairs for breakfast, Guiyun happened to come back from outside.

"Have you eaten well? Once you've eaten, let's go! He was standing at the counter and didn't come to them.

Nan He glanced at him, and saw a little dirt under the hem of his green shirt, and his eyes moved down, but the shoes were still clean.

"Where have you been?" When the three of them walked up to him, Nan He asked.

"I drank with a friend for a night, and then I found out the whereabouts of the demon god." He said plainly, and led them out the door.

After going out, Guiyun told them the news he had found out last night.

It was true that the so-called demon god was in Asakawa, but he didn't live anywhere in Asakawa, and the youkai who drank with Guiyun told him that in fact, they hadn't seen the true face of the demon god either, and every time something was summoned, it was the people who served around him who came to pass the word.

The cultivation of that demon god was higher than all the monsters living in Asakawa combined, so he created a space by himself, connecting a cliff in Asakawa, and it was that cliff that Guiyun took them to at this time.

Di He is no longer like yesterday, when Guiyun talked to her, he didn't react at all, and his face was still the same.

Only Qing Heng knew that he was not like this, but he didn't want others to know, so she pretended not to know.

The cliff was on a hill south of the Asakawa River, and when they reached a sparsely populated area, Guiyun directly cast a spell to teleport them over.

"This cliff is called the Cliff of Innocence, it has existed here for hundreds of years, and it was the demon god who got its name."

A stone was erected near the edge of the cliff, and the name that Guiyun had said was written on it.

Nan He took a few steps forward, wanting to go to the edge of the stone to have a look, but was stopped by Guiyun.

"As long as you pass that stone, you will enter the realm of that demon god, and he can feel it."

Nan He glanced back at him, and before he could speak, Emperor He walked over with Qing Heng.

"Anyway, it's going to come to him, and it doesn't matter if he feels it."

This was said by Di He, and when he finished speaking, he just walked to Nan He's side, looked at her and said, "Don't you want to go over and have a look, let's go!" ”

Nan He replied in a daze, and then followed him to the edge of the stone.
