Chapter 220: ALS
The unpredictable black qi condensed into clouds and began to erode the entire sky, and all the survivors of the Hidden Realm rushed up, eager to cross the bridge of the underworld, while Yuna walked in the opposite direction, ignoring every Celestial Omen cultist who passed her, and looked at the man standing at the bridge.
He wore a black hood and his right hand reached out to his coat pocket, and he couldn't see the unique temperament of a rich young master two years ago, and if it weren't for his trademark playful smile, she would have almost recognized this person.
"Xian Cheng, you've finally appeared!" Yuna paused, quickly summoning Tenkasa in her hand.
"Holy Maiden, oh no, Miss Idol, I didn't expect us to meet again but we have become enemies, please don't get excited at this moment, isn't it too late?" Xian Cheng took off his hood, took out a condensation and handed it to Yuna.
Youna didn't reach out to take it, but raised the barrel of the gun up a little: "Yi Youting was also killed by you?"
"Yes, but the word 'also' is not quite accurate. Xian Cheng raised his hands and sneered, "It was the people of the four great families who killed my cousin, why do you bother to force each other?"
"You...... This traitor is talking nonsense to me!" Yuna's knuckles trembled with hatred.
"Then what do you want? Shoot me with an exorcism spell to avenge Lan Lingxiang? I'm afraid it's not so easy to use this thing against a living person. Xian Cheng continued to sneer, but unfortunately it didn't work, but instead warned Yuna to calm down.
"Some 'living people' are no different from dead people. Yuna sealed the heavenly gasa back into the dream stone and passed by Xian Cheng.
"Hey, you're not describing Jasmine's mother, are you?"
No matter how Sin Seung provoked, Yuna didn't look back and walked towards the central square alone.
As the black clouds gradually covered the entire sky, the Tianzhao cultists fleeing on the street became more and more scattered, and finally only the brown-clothed godmother was left under the hidden tree. Lan Yifan still had that indifferent expression, her heart was blocked, and she wanted to stop talking, at least she had already expected that Yuna would keep her promise in order to save Jasmine.
"The essence of the flower is the spirit of the deceased, put a mask of innocence on Jasmine, and she will wake up in less than half an hour. Lan Yifan took out a pocket watch and used it to keep time, "When Yan Wensha played the Requiem, there was a mistake, although all the flowers of Mao bloomed, but they could not guide them to the Yellow Spring, so that these wandering spirits can only stay in the world by absorbing the essence of the hidden tree. ”
"Do you also think that the four great families are responsible for all this?"
"Jasmine also belongs to the people of the Purple Mist Mo family, in order to save the hidden tree, I have to make this decision. Lan Yifan sighed and changed the conversation, "It's a pity that she is not the best sacrifice, and she has not explained all the truth to you, Jasmine is not only going to save her father, but also to find her mother, this matter involves the taboo of the Ziwu Mo family, about Jasmine's mother's past, want to hear me in detail?"
Yuna nodded, willing to listen to her.
"When I first took over the affairs of the Orphin Orphanage, Molong was a PhD student in Fallen Dragontown, and the pain of losing his brother caused him to immerse himself in various forbidden experiments all day long, until he met Ivor, who had just graduated from medical school, and the two quickly became friends with the same interests. Lan Yifan paused for a moment and continued, "On that day, the Ziwu Mo family gathered many disabled people and people from orphanages to hold the first academic symposium on ALS. ”
"What is ALS?"
"A motor nerve disorder that may be related to genetics, after the onset of the disease, the patient will gradually lose mobility, muscle atrophy, and no longer be able to do without a wheelchair in this life. Lan Yifan stretched his body slightly, "Mo Long and Ivor had a heated debate at the meeting, but everyone agreed that Ivor's proposed therapy was more effective, and Mo Long was so angry that he tore the carefully written speech to shreds......
After the meeting, everyone was seeing off the audience, only the girl noticed the depressed Molong, she picked up the confetti on the ground and handed it to Molong. ”
"'You may not be satisfied with the results of your research, but if you don't cherish things, you will be scolded by the gods! This made Mo Long fall in love with the girl at first sight, and a few days later, Mo Long proposed to her. Lan Yifan glanced at the pocket watch in his hand, "This is the biggest absurdity in the history of the Ziwu Mo family, regardless of all kinds of women from famous families, they actually chose a sixteen-year-old girl with ALS." ”
"She's Jasmine's real mother?"
Everyone in the Ziwu Mo family was against such a marriage, but Mo Long did not give in, and after giving up his candidacy for the position of head of the family and shutting up his relatives, he married the woman. Lan Yifan closed the pocket watch and clasped her hands instead, "But not long after giving birth to Jasmine, the woman disappeared......"
"Could it be that she was captured by your Tianzhao Sect?"
"No...... She's dead!" Lan Yifan moistened her lips and continued, "Although she was finally able to walk under Dr. Ivor's treatment, her body was getting weaker and weaker day by day, and the woman was afraid that if her husband knew about this, she would harshly accuse Dr. Ivor for not doing her best, as a devout Heavenly Sign, the Hidden Realm was also the place where her soul longed to return, so in order not to drag down her family, she asked me to keep this secret strictly. ”
"It was three years ago when I met Dr. Moron again in the town of Fallen Dragon, where the turmoil caused by the Yellow Springs Rebellion had put the entire town in danger, and the Hidden Realm had become the only refuge for the survivors. Lan Yifan covered her hair with a hood and put on the soul mask again, "It's just that the father and daughter don't want to believe me, and Dr. Mo Long didn't recognize me as the female dean of the seminar that year." ”
"It's not because you've been blinded by the cult teachings, and you're uglier than before. Yuna couldn't help but sneer.
"People grow old and even die...... Good things are always so short-lived, so ...... In pursuit of eternity, people will follow one another, right?" Lan Yifan patted Yuna on the shoulder and walked quietly behind her, "The dark tide is coming, and how you choose next is very important to us. ”
Although Lan Yifan, the old witch, is annoying, she has to admit that she has a point, and Yuna should think carefully about whether to leave this place with Jasmine.
The white light from the Mask of Innocence seeped into the petals of the Uno flower, causing it to float off Jasmine and return to the soil, her fingers trembling slightly, finally responding to Yuna's call.
When Jasmine got up and leaned under the hidden tree to take off her mask, she still had a confused look in her eyes: "Where am I?
I'll tell you later, anyway, let's go save Dr. Moron first. Yuna shook Jasmine's shoulder to help her remember as soon as possible, "Think about it, where did Lan Yifan keep your father?"
"My dad...... Lan Yifan ......" Jasmine rubbed her forehead, "That's right! When I was kidnapped by the Heavenly Signs Cultists before, I heard from them that my father was trapped in the Hading Hotel. ”
"Where?" Yuna opened the map of Tianzhao City and asked Jasmine to point it to her, only to see where the other person's finger rested was the hotel on the right side of the road when she first entered the city.
She should have thought that the most suitable place for Tibetans in the whole ancient city was there, if she hadn't mistakenly chosen the left road at that time, maybe she would have found Dr. Mo Long a long time ago, and Jasmine would not have been arrested, and the renovation of the entire hotel must have been to make Mo Long's stay more comfortable, she really shouldn't have missed this detail.
At this point, no matter how much she was upset, she could only lend the spirit to Jasmine temporarily, and return to the main road into the city according to the instructions on the map.
"I knew I should have come here first. When she took a closer look at the exterior of the hotel, Yuna felt that the outer wall of the pedestal was not as rotten as she had imagined.
"No, it's right to go. ”
Yuna followed Jasmine's pointing and found several sarcoma bearded people wandering around the corridor of the inner courtyard, and her terrifying face made her break out in a cold sweat: "Reasonable! In the face of the many Tianzhao Sectists who were responsible for guarding Dr. Mo Long before my death, it is estimated that I will be outnumbered, and I will eventually be brought to Lan Yifan, after all, the entire city is under the control of the Tianzhao Sect." ”
"How did they come to be like this? Jasmine asked in a whisper.
"It has something to do with the soul disturbing face, and you will know when you ask Moyi. Yuna summoned Tenkasa, lowered her posture, and was ready to shoot at any moment, "When the Langtian Adventure Group repairs the Hidden Mirror Gate, you father and daughter can escape from the Hidden Realm together." ”
"Who is Moyi?"
Yuna shook her head helplessly: "She's your cousin, didn't your father tell you before?"
Thinking that Jasmine grew up in Fallen Dragon Town, no wonder she didn't know anything about it, and Yuna didn't have time to tell her in detail, and after dealing with all the sarcoma beards, she came to the door of the hotel.
"Wait!, then why isn't my mother in their plans?" Jasmine and Yuna kept their distance, pinching their noses to ward off the oncoming smell of blood.
"If you want to live, don't ask. Yuna paused in the air for a moment, deciding to hide the truth about Jasmine's mother's death.
"What about you?"
"I need your help...... "Yuna glanced at the cabin across the hallway, "you can search inside, and you might find a lockpicking tool." ”
Jasmine was not satisfied with Yuna's words, but for the sake of her father, she nodded coldly and walked into the wooden house.
In the dim candlelight, there were some pieces of furniture with axe marks all around, wooden boxes next to cabinets, a hand axe pierced deep in the wall, and the shocking blood stains extended from the axe handle to the ground, wetting the corner of the bar, and most of the shelves were rotten wine bottles, and if you were not careful, you would be punctured by the glass shards on the ground.
Jasmine rummaged through the toolbox on the bar for a long time, but couldn't find a lockpicking tool, so it seemed that she had to use the axe. So she rubbed her hands together and pulled out the axe with all her might.
With the help of the light of the flashlight, a thin line of text can be seen on the blade of the axe.
My dear, I'm in the middle of the killing, please don't bother me.
Somehow, when Jasmine saw this line of text, her eyes suddenly moistened slightly, so that when she returned to Yuna's side, she felt that the whole person was not good.
"Are you alright?" Yuna asked with concern as she took the axe from Jasmine, and after receiving a negative answer, she raised the axe with both hands and slashed it down hard between the chains.
Hearing only a "click", the whole chain was broken, and with a gentle push, countless dust wrapped in an old and dilapidated aura came to the face, and the feeling of oppression seemed to put the two of them in a prison cell, and they didn't dare to imagine how Dr. Mo Long would be tortured by those Heavenly Omen Cultists.
