Chapter One Hundred and Eight
When the temptation finally turned into confirmation, Qi Harrier looked up at Nan He, who was expressionless and didn't even look at her, bit his lower lip for a long time, and finally stood up by himself.
"When did you notice it?" Patting off the dust on her dress, Qi Harrier changed her simple and innocent appearance, her expression was cold, and her eyes fell on her.
"Perceive what?" Nan He wanted to see what else she could become, so he pretended not to understand her words.
"Don't you know what I'm talking about?" Qi Harrier walked to the stone table on the side, reached out and gently touched the edge of the table, and looked at her with his spare eyes.
"What are you talking about?" There is no intention of stopping.
"......" Qi Harrier looked back thoughtfully, and after a moment, laughed, "Don't pretend, I know you have seen my true colors." ”
Nan He remained silent, and still said the same thing when he spoke: "What are you pretending?" What do you mean by that? ”
Almost at the moment when the words fell, the black qi around Qi Harrier's body skyrocketed, enveloping her in it, and there were a few traces of light purple mixed in those black gases, which came from her eyes.
A rich murderous aura rushed to his face, and Emperor He raised his eyes indifferently, and the enchantment suddenly rose, blocking that murderous aura back.
Nan He sat up and looked at Qi Harrier who was wrapped in ghost qi with an expressionless face: "It's finally time to show your true face."
This was said to Di He, but Di He didn't say anything, she looked back suspiciously, and when she saw his frowning brows, an ominous premonition suddenly surged in her heart: "What's wrong?"
Di He suddenly came back to his senses, his brows dispersed, his eyes fell on her, and he looked at her and smiled at the corners of his lips: "It's okay."
Even though he was doing well, Nan He still saw the dodge and panic in his eyes.
A possibility instantly occurred in her heart, she frowned, she was about to say something, but seeing that he had already moved his gaze to Qi Harrier, she swallowed those words back, and then moved her gaze away.
It's just that I didn't look at her for a while, and when I looked at it again, those ghost qi became thicker, wrapping Qi Harrier's whole person, and only a faint silhouette could be seen.
The temperature around them dropped instantly, and the cold wind enveloped them through the barrier, sweeping through their pores.
Nan He shuddered, and before she could speak, the enchantment lit up with a pale golden light, forcing out all those cold gases.
"Something isn't quite right." Di He's voice rang in her ears.
"Hmm." Nan He responded, "The ghost qi that wrapped her was not exactly the ones in her body, many of them were drawn from the outside. ”
The gaze moves up, and the red eyes appear.
Above the small courtyard, black qi poured in from all directions, all pouring into the ghost qi that enveloped Qi Harrier.
Nan He squinted, stared at those ghosts and thought for a long time, and finally returned his gaze to Qi Harrier, who was wrapped in ghost energy.
The lilac demonic qi emanated from his eyes, but it was blocked by the black qi, and it could only linger around Qi Harrier's body, and it could not be dispersed at all.
Seeing this situation clearly, Nan He's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what was going on!
She's stopping the demonic energy from escaping.
Di He's speculation before reappeared in his mind, and Nan He now felt that what he said might be true.
Ten miles of alleys, at the end of the alley, the four-story building has faintly become five floors, among which the monsters who were still noisy suddenly quieted down, they exchanged glances with each other, and when they saw the same meaning as themselves in each other's eyes, they instantly hooked the corners of their lips and laughed.
A gust of wind passed, a faint fragrance of flowers came from upstairs, instantly filled the entire teahouse, the monsters invariably moved their eyes to the same place, suspicion, longing, nostalgia, hatred, all kinds of emotions mixed together, powerful demonic energy emanated from the teahouse, and those flowers circled towards the barrier.
In the small courtyard, the rich ghost qi was still blocking the demonic qi from emanating, but it was far from working.
The continuous demonic qi passed through the black qi and turned into silk threads that were wrapped around those black qi.
"Uh-huh......" A muffled snort came from the black air, it was Qi Harrier's voice.
With her elbows propped up on the armrests and her chin resting on her bent fingertips, Nan He looked at the scene in front of her, and didn't react at first, but as the muffled grunt became louder and louder, she looked back at Di He and asked, "She seems to be very uncomfortable, should we help her?"
Di He's attention was all on Qi Harrier at this time, he neither frowned, nor did his eyes dodge, when he heard Nan He's words, he immediately looked at her and shook his head at her: "If she needs our help, she will speak."
Nan He pondered for a moment and nodded approvingly: "That's what I said."
She turned her gaze back to Qi Harrier and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, if you help passionately when others don't need it, maybe you will do bad things with good intentions!" You say yes! ”
The last words were for Qi Harrier, but in the black qi that had been entangled by the silk threads generated by the demonic qi, there was no sound except for the muffled snort that had always been.
With Qi Harrier's ability, she couldn't support it anymore, but she still gritted her back molars and forced herself never to speak.
The momentum is gone, but the backbone is still there.
But......
"Help me! When it is done, I will tell you everything! A familiar voice sounded in the darkness.
Sometimes backbone isn't a big thing, especially when it comes to life.
Now that Qi Harrier had already opened his mouth to ask for help, they had no intention of sitting down anymore.
Nan He got up and walked over there, and Di He's voice sounded behind him: "Is it okay?"
"No problem." The tone is relaxed, and the steps are light.
Stopping at a distance of an arm's throw from those black qi, his fingertips pinched the trick, and the demonic qi scattered in his heart, and the magic soul flag followed.
The moment the fingertips touched the flagpole, the body of the flag instantly increased dramatically, and He Yuyuan's lazy voice sounded in his mind: "I finally remembered the role of your magic weapon, it's not easy!"
"Less nonsense! Give me a job! ”
Stopping He Yuyuan's thought of continuing, he withdrew his fingertips and threw the Soul Flag towards Qi Harrier.
The pitch-black flag body suddenly wrapped those black qi with Qi Harrier in it, He Yuyuan chuckled, a large amount of demonic qi appeared, and the flag body became smaller and smaller, spinning with a faint demonic technique.
Two fingers together fell on the center of his eyebrows, Nan He's lips opened and closed, watching those lilac demonic qi disperse along with the ghost qi surging from all directions, and after a while, he withdrew his hand.
The spell dissipated, and the magic soul flag returned to the size of a palm, returning to Nan He's body with the demonic qi.
Qi Harrier still had a faint demonic aura lingering around him, but it was not from those eyes, but from He Yuyuan.
Nan He waved his hand to disperse those demonic qi, Qi Harrier's figure was instantly revealed, she lowered her head and covered her heart, she couldn't help coughing violently anymore, her knees fell to the ground, her back was bent, and when she slowly stopped coughing and raised her head, the corners of her lips and collar were bloodstained.
Nan He walked up to her and looked at her condescendingly, although the corners of his lips were smiling, the smile did not reach the corners of his eyes, and after a while, he stretched out his hand to her.
At the bottom of the cliff valley, Zi Qingyang, who had been in retreat for several days, suddenly opened her eyes, her brows were furrowed, her expression was panicked, and there was a sudden uneasiness in her heart, and the past reappeared in front of her eyes one by one, among which what she remembered the most was the eyes that always glowed with soft light, and the low and lazy voice.
"Sister Aqing, come to me again today! Speaking of which, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time! ”
"Sister Aqing, where is your little Langjun? Why are you the only one here? ”
"Ah Qing, don't be sad, I'll help you kill him!"
"A-Qing, I'...... Let's go! Take care! ”
"Let's go-" A drop of water suddenly fell on the back of her hand, Zi Qingyang suddenly came back to her senses, she raised her head and touched her face blankly, and when her fingertips touched the wetness, she was instantly stunned.
Coming out of the retreat, she looked up at the dazzling sun, which she couldn't open, but it couldn't stop her vision.
"Master, you're out of the customs!" Yunqi's voice rang in her ears.
Zi Qingyang retracted his gaze and glanced at Yun Qi, standing in front of her, looking at her in surprise.
"Hmm." After a faint answer, she didn't want to speak anymore.
There was a pleasant wind blowing in the valley, and Zi Qingyang took his eyes off Yun Qi and walked in the direction of the living soul pool.
"Master, during your time of retreat, something happened to Asakawa." Yunqi followed her, chattering.
"Asakawa has nothing to do with me, the reputation of the demon god was caused by you and Yun Rongrong from the beginning, and you are responsible for what happened."
"It's not a big deal, it's just that a strange person has appeared, but she angered Gray Zhou in the teahouse, and now she has been targeted by Gray Zhou."
"Who is Grey Week?"
"The rat demon who was pushed to the position of the earth immortal by the demon clan."
"Does it have anything to do with us?"
“……”
Yun Qi stopped talking, her lips pursed, and she quietly followed behind Zi Qingyang.
Although she and Yun Rongrong are both demons, they are not from the demon clan, they have been with Zi Qingyang since they were children, and they don't even know what the demon world looks like.
"You don't have to tell me anything that happens in Asakawa in the future, as before, you make your own decisions."
"Yes. Master. ”
After taking a few more steps, Zi Qingyang's voice sounded again.
"Has anyone ever told you about Asakawa all along?"
Yun Qi didn't know why she asked like this, but he still answered truthfully: "There are a few powerful big monsters who will come to report regularly."
“……”
After waiting for a long time, just when Yun Qi thought that Zi Qingyang would not speak again, her voice came again.
"The next time they come, help me ask if there are any strange people in Asakawa besides the strange person in the teahouse."
"Okay."
Zi Qingyang really didn't have anything to say this time, as soon as she thought of the uncomfortable feeling in Fang Cai's heart, she felt a headache, and subconsciously quickened her steps and walked towards the living soul pool.
Qi Harrier was injured, her already pale face became even paler, and she sat on the edge of the stone table, struggling to support her body.
The spiritual power that Nan He gave her last time couldn't support her to turn into an entity, but when she came to her this time, she was still in the state of an entity, and when she thought of this, Nan He suddenly had some doubts about her true identity.
The tea on the table was from yesterday, so Nan He didn't pour it for her, but took out a spirit fruit from the storage bag on his waist and handed it to her.
Qi Harrier stared at the spirit fruit for a long time, but never took it.
When she slowed down for a long time and gradually recovered her complexion, she told her promise to Nan He according to the previous agreement.
"These eyes are as you guessed, they are all the same." She didn't call her brother again this time, and said her name directly.
"Why do you think we guessed?"
"Because when you see my eyes, you don't mean to be surprised at all."
"That's it?"
"Nope." Qi Harrier shook his head, "In addition, because these eyes have the ability to see, it can peek into the depths of your heart and see your true thoughts." ”
To be honest, Nan He wasn't really surprised by what she said, so she changed the subject.
"Why are Qi Weiyuan's eyes in your eye sockets?"
"I've already told you about it."
"What......" Nan He suddenly stopped, she suddenly remembered Qi Harrier's previous words, "What are you talking about?" ”
Qi Harrier nodded: "Yes." That's not a dream, it's real, every word is true. ”
Before Nan He's question could be asked, Di He on the side joined in: "Don't talk about anything else, tell me first, what is the real reason why you asked us for help?"
"Because of these eyes, they have brought me a lot of trouble, and the biggest trouble is Qi Weiyuan."
"You gouged out his eyes and thought he was a nuisance?!"
“…… Right. Qi Harrier responded, albeit with a hint of hesitation.
"You're really ...... Tut-tut! Nan He didn't say the rest of the words, because she didn't know the real past between Qi Harrier and Qi Weiyuan, so she couldn't say something like that.
For her words, Qi Harrier just hooked the corners of her lips and smiled, and when the smile dissipated, she continued: "Qi Weiyuan wants to get his eyes back, he has been looking for me for a hundred years, I have been avoiding him, but now I suddenly don't want to hide."
"And what do you want to do?"
"I want to find him before he does."
"And then?"
"Then you don't need to know, it's a grudge between me and him."
Just listening to Qi Harrier say this, Nan He couldn't feel what the reason for her current mood was, so he asked, "What is the relationship between you and Qi Weiyuan?"
Qi Harrier didn't answer her immediately, but lowered her head that had been raised, and after a while, the sadness between her eyebrows dissipated, and she said, "Husband and wife."
Nan He: "......"
Qi Harrier: "What I said to you at the beginning was not completely false, but it was a little different, I told you that I knew that he was a monster for a long time, but in fact, I never knew about it."
"The day before I got married, she suddenly appeared in front of me and forced me to take a pill, I didn't know what it was at the time, and later I learned that it was a demon pill."
Nan He has heard of this kind of thing, the so-called demon pill as the name suggests, it is literally that meaning, whoever eats it, will begin to demonize, and slowly become a demon.
"He wanted me to become a monster like him, but the elixir wasn't for me, and it didn't take much effort for me to go crazy, and that's what I said next."
"Not for you? Why isn't it for you? Nan He was very puzzled by this, as far as she knew, the Demon Transformation Pill was suitable for every human being.
Qi Harrier suddenly changed her indifferent appearance, she lowered her head and didn't look at Nan He opposite, and she didn't want to answer her question, but even if she didn't answer, someone could help her answer.
"Because she's a ghost."
It was only six words, but Qi Harrier felt as if she had heard something that was going to be punished by her immediately, not only was her expression indifferent, but she couldn't even sit still.
The ghost race was born at the junction of the underworld and the human world, and is the most despicable race in the five worlds.
Because of their identity, the ghost clan has long faded out of everyone's sight, they either live in seclusion in the mountains or hide in the human world, no one has found their traces for thousands of years, and over time, many people now do not know the existence of this race.
Emperor He would know that the ghost clan was told to him by Wei Yuanzi, and there were also disciples of the ghost clan in Yangxu Palace, so he didn't feel anything, and his tone was not too heavy when he said it.
But Nan He didn't know that when she heard the words "ghost clan", she immediately frowned, and Emperor He sent a message to her about the ghost clan.
At the moment when he finished speaking, Qi Harrier finally reacted, her eyes were a little red, but there was no tears in her eyes: "That's right, I am from the ghost clan, so the demon pill that Qi Weiyuan asked me to eat has no effect on me at all, but because of the demon magic in it, it stimulates the bloodline of the ghost clan in my body, so I will hurt him uncontrollably."
The day before they got married, Qi Harrier hated him because of the Demon Pill, and Qi Weiyuan resented Qi Harrier because of his eyes.
The two who were originally going to get married suddenly turned against each other and became enemies, and after that, it was a hundred years of hostility.
"It's been a hundred years, and I don't have any hatred for his behavior at that time, but I just ......" Qi Harrier sighed, "I can't let go of my obsession." ”
"He's been looking for me for a hundred years, I've been hiding for a hundred years, I'm tired, I don't want to go on like this anymore, so please help me find him." The tone was sincere, and his face was full of pleading.
"Qi Harrier, I want to ask you a few questions." Nan He didn't continue on the topic she said.
Qi Harrier was stunned: "You ask."
"Did you and Qi Weiyuan have a very good relationship before?"
“…… Well. ”
"How good is it?"
"So good that we can all die for each other."
"Did you just run away when you gouged out his eyes?"
“……”
"Since you two were once good and could lose their lives for each other, then why do you think that he came to you to kill you?"
“……”
The small courtyard, which was not very noisy, was completely quiet, and Qi Harrier lowered his eyes and looked at his hands on the table.
She hadn't thought about this problem, and how could she not know what Qi Weiyuan was thinking, but despite this, she still avoided Qi Weiyuan, and this hiding was a hundred years.
There were many times during this period, Qi Weiyuan almost found him, but she avoided it ruthlessly every time, and she didn't let him find it once.
