The nobleman naturally refers to the old man. If there had been no old man back then, and I had even arrived a minute late at the General's Grave, I would have died under the ghost knife of the General's Soul even if I hadn't been completely drained by the Yan Puppet.

"It's just that not long after I was born, who was the person who named me Li Nian and planted the peach tree? Was it the grandfather who was still at his peak at that time and had not yet gone downhill, or was there really someone else? ”

Although it has not been confirmed, it is basically Li Shanye who is saying, and I took the right seat in combination with the situation at the time, but at this moment, I still chose to believe that what he said was true.

After all, he is a person from other places, no matter how powerful he is, no matter how much preparation he secretly made before meeting me, it is unlikely that he can even inquire about the fact that there was a peach tree planted next to my house more than ten years ago. Taking a step back, even if Lao Wu Lao Feng approached me with ulterior motives, he was Li Shanye's accomplice in private, and colluded with him to deceive me, the possibility of them being able to collect information about that peach tree is also very low.

So I believe that what this person said is basically based on some information told by Lao Wu, and what I can see from me is based on facts, rather than nonsense.

"No wonder the mother of the peach tree took care of it so dedicatedly, but the fruit it produced was not delicious at all, and it looked a little wilted, it turned out that it was caused by a lot of disasters that I had prevented." I wanted to understand the origin of the peach tree that I had thought was a little strange since I was a child, and I couldn't help but glance at Li Shanye again.

Fortunately, what this person said when he came up was that "the flowers are everywhere, and the soul is moving" does not have a special metaphor as I thought, referring to those evil things attracted by my "plum tree", not just referring to the golem, otherwise even if I believe that he is a powerful person who is good at criticizing and seeing appearances, I have to be suspicious of him and be vigilant enough.

"Yamaha ...... Brother, whether you believe it or not, now I want to say, brother, I admire you a little, I have never believed that there are really people who know the subtleties and know the existence of people in all directions, and I think that even if there is such a powerful person like a fairy, he will only live in the ancient temple in the deep mountains, and will not enter the world, but I didn't expect to finally see it today. After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't help but compliment.

"Little brother, don't go outside, and don't say these kind words. The foolish brother just learned a few skins from his teacher, and he can play a few tricks, and he never dares to claim to be powerful. It's still the same sentence, if you think that the foolish brother's words are still somewhat credible, if you don't think it's ridiculous, just say what you want to say, don't stick to what etiquette, it's good to save a little time. Li Shanye smiled slightly.

Seeing that he had already had some intention of urging him to get to the point, I didn't rub anything anymore and asked: "Brother Yamaba, you said that I am a chaotic mind, easy to be disturbed by external factors, the more important the matter, the greater the impact, does this mean that my current predicament is precisely due to this reason?" Is there any way around it? ”

All the criticisms about my fate, the origin of my name, and the age of twelve are just appetizers, just a foreshadowing for the character in front of me to show his ability and gain my trust, which I already know in my heart, since he has the intention of not talking off topic and getting to the point, there is naturally no need to grind again.

Li Shanye smiled lightly and replied: "The fate is determined by heaven, how easy it is to change it, mortals study numerology, no matter how profound it is, in essence, it is just to find some loopholes to drill and do some work to mend the seams, so please forgive the foolish brother for not daring to say anything." But if you want, you can say your current knot, and the foolish brother will help you analyze it to see if it is useful or not. ”

"Okay, since that's the case, then I'll rest assured." After thinking about it for a while, I asked, "I don't know if Lao Wu told you about a kind of demon soul called Yan Puppet before I came?" To tell you the truth, this is what seduced my soul and separated my soul back then, and most of the changes and experiences I have suffered since the age of twelve are due to this thing. "Yan puppet is the root cause of all the problems in the future, since you want to talk about the current situation and find the source of your inner fear, you must start with this monster.

"Golem?" Li Shanye was slightly stunned, and then said, "This old Wu didn't tell me about it." What kind of monster is it? If you can, please ask the little brother to re-talk about these monsters, as detailed as possible, after all, there are many strange things in the world, and there are countless demons and spirits in many forms, and the foolish brother is just a layman who knows some of the art of fate, and his knowledge is really limited. ”

This is the first time he has shown surprise and curiosity since he saw Li Shanye, and his expression really doesn't look like a disguise, but Lao Wu really didn't talk to him about Yan puppet before, so after organizing the language, he used this monster as the basis of the topic, as short as possible, but it could be accurately expressed.

In fact, there is not much to say about the demon soul of Guangyan Puppet, after all, so far, my understanding of this thing is still very limited, and the things that have passed, I don't want to say too much at this time, I will face the Yan Puppet a few times, and pick out some key points about what happened around this monster, to ensure that Li Shanye can fully understand, and gradually pull the theme to the main problem I am facing in the near future - that I still can't find a reason, but I don't dare to go any further.

Speaking of which, I used to always forget my own love and forgetfulness, and the more critical the time, the easier it was to consider the disadvantages of not thinking about the chain, and the character weakness of the indecisive mother-in-law, which was blamed on being drained of the three souls by the puppet, which caused my soul to no longer be complete. Now after Li Shanye said it, I finally began to realize that although there is a puppet factor in this, but the other part also has my own reason for the chaotic appearance.

At the same time, among so many people in the world, the reason why this demon soul chose me to attack is finally clear. So the problem is still with me after all, if I hadn't been for the goddamn fish baby and the chaotic appearance, the golem wouldn't have found me.

This has always been the biggest problem in my heart, and now I finally got a relatively reasonable answer. Even if it's too late to confirm them one by one, I believe Li Shanye's statement, and I believe that even if what he said is not 100% correct, it is not much different from the real situation.

For many years, I have been trying to figure out why this puppet will attack me, but the old man will never answer for me, just tell me that since things have happened, it is not much point to spend too much energy on this, it is better to look forward as soon as possible, because the time will come one day, and when I should know, even if I am no longer obsessed with searching, the truth will surface by itself.

Now it seems that it is probably the time when the old man said. When I stayed at the end of the day when I officially became a painter and was about to take over the mission and responsibility, I didn't dare to move forward.

And Li Shanye in front of me is probably equivalent to the second noble person on the rugged road of my life, who appeared at the right time when I needed help, not only sent me the truth of being sucked away by the Yan puppet, but also pointed me out the maze and helped me break the fear in my heart.

So I chose to believe in Li Shanye. There is not much reason for this, because when he was about to complete the most important transformation of my life, he relieved me of a heart that had been haunting me for many years, because I believed that it was fate.

So after a little consideration, I also told the things that I hadn't mentioned much about Lao Wu at the beginning, and about my "senior brother" Xie Yifan, who I had never met.

I believe that the character in front of me can help me find the source of my fear and solve it, so there is nothing more to hide.

In this world, except for our master and apprentice, and Xie Yifan, the evil man who has lost his mind, and the Wu Yue family, which has little possibility of existence, no one knows how to draw spirits, so there is actually nothing to worry about. Even if a person with outstanding talent is, it is impossible to master the art of painting spirits to harm others just because he heard me tell me about some disgraceful past stories of this ancient sect.

"Yan puppet, senior brother, ...... evil arts" After listening to me, Li Shanye also frowned slightly for the first time and began to fall into deep thought.

And when I saw this character, who could see a lot of things from me at just a glance, I began to think, and I fell silent, did not speak again, and looked at him with some expectation.

I've already said everything I need to say, and if I can't even find the source of this "Brother Yamaba" in front of me, who I admire and trust me enough in just two hours, I can only give up the naïve idea of pinning half of my hopes on others.

I can't give up on being a painter just because I don't know what I'm afraid of, and even if the old man respects me and doesn't say anything, I will never allow myself to do something that will make the old man sad and everyone down. So before I walked out of the house this morning, I had already decided, no matter whether I could find the reason or not, I would come to the county seat today to relax for the last time, and after being mentally prepared, I would go back and take that last step.

Whether he is a flood or an abyss, he will pass it first.

Just like Lao Wu said at the beginning, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. If time permits, I can try to find the cause, solve it and make sufficient preparations before moving forward, but if there is no result after the deadline set in my heart, I can no longer be afraid.

All the people who care about me, including the generals on the banks of the Xinyang River, are waiting to take this last step, and the provincial capital also has lifelong events, and a woman who is about to spend her life with me is waiting for me, so no matter what I am thinking in my heart, the situation does not allow me to delay any longer.

And seeing that Li Shanye's brows were furrowing deeper and deeper, and he didn't mean to speak for a long time, I gradually knew the answer in my heart.

Although I was still a little disappointed in my heart, compared to the first time I came here twenty days ago, when the whole person was burning like a fire and urgently needed someone to save my life, I was no longer so obsessed with finding the source of that fear, so I waited for a few more minutes, and after seeing that Li Shanye still didn't mean to speak, I planned to give up completely.

"Forget it, Brother Yamaba, it's not a question that you have to figure out, if you really can't figure it out, then ......"

"Wait a minute, little brother." Before he finished speaking, Li Shanye, who was like a god, suddenly woke up and motioned for me not to speak, raised his head lightly and looked at me for nearly ten seconds, and then asked: "If the foolish brother didn't hear or understand it wrongly just now, little brother, this sect of painting spirits of yours has had many disciples betray and fall into the evil path in history, making the painting of spirits completely become a harmful thing. Among them, the one with the greatest impact, which directly led to the bloody strangulation of the Painting Spirit School, and can no longer be carried forward, can only be passed on as hard as a broken candle, is the large-scale defection of the first disciple Wu Yue, and finally fell into the evil way, and the distorted heart is mainly talented and kind-hearted? ”

I was slightly stunned, thought about it, and nodded, "Exactly." To be honest, I still can't understand that the same thing happens over and over again, and it basically happens to people who are originally very kind. As far as I can understand now, there are indeed many harmful ways to draw spirits, and some of them are even very suitable for collecting money, but they will never have such great temptation. Even if I haven't really become a painter yet, and I don't understand what I've learned deeply enough, the difference shouldn't be so huge. ”

After a pause and a moment of hesitation, I said: "I won't talk about it, just my senior brother who has never met him so far and has betrayed his master, is also a talented and kind person, before being accepted as a disciple by my old man, he even had the experience of almost sacrificing his life because of irrelevant people. I can't understand how such a person can quickly transform into a cruel butcher who disregards life after becoming a spirit painter. ”

Li Shanye nodded lightly, thought for a few seconds, and then asked: "In addition to these, I remember that you also said just now that you had talked about similar issues with Brother Wu at the beginning, and he asked you at that time, did you have a fear of inheriting the mantle of the master, and you didn't deny it at the time, right?" ”

"Yes, I thought he had some truth at the time, and I still haven't figured out whether that's the case or not." There was nothing to admit about it, so I nodded without any hesitation.

"Is it possible, little brother, you are really afraid of becoming a real painter, or rather, you are afraid that you will also become the same person as Wu Yue, and your senior brother who betrayed the sect?"
