Chapter 110: Conjecture
It's not realistic to expect a dog to spit out ivory from its mouth to slip away at all, but Gu Feng is not finding fault with it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although there is only one point, Gu Feng does have a feeling that does not match his personality, like the restraint of a junior when he sees an elder who has not been seen for a long time.
Otherwise, Gu Feng would not have taken the initiative to speak, but chose to start counting the stripes on the tatami mats.
"It's been ten years, Gu Feng."
The middle-aged man spoke slowly, a mature and steady voice that matched his appearance.
"Strictly speaking, it's not been ten years."
Gu Feng put down the teacup in his hand and responded.
"You...... It's so similar to your father, and for a moment I thought I saw your father. ”
The middle-aged man continued.
"That's just the appearance, I'm not the same person as him." The archaic style is neither affirmative nor negative, making it impossible to understand the meaning of the sentence.
"You...... Is your father to blame? ”
"No, he hasn't done anything that would make me blame him, and besides, I don't think I have the right to blame him, even now, I think so."
Gu Feng replied without wavering.
"So, do you know where you are now?"
"I want to hear about it." Gu Feng rarely had a serious conversation with others, and he had naturally made more than one guess about his state, even if it was to verify his conjecture, he also had to listen to it.
The middle-aged man looked at the eyes of the ancient style, his eyes were deep and wise, and he seemed to be able to see through the essence of a person just by looking at it.
"It should be said that because of the ...... received Stimulate. ”
"The power of your clan reacted to the essence of the stimulus, that is, your spiritual power circuit, and carried out offensive behavior, causing your spiritual power circuit to be damaged."
Hearing the man say this, Gu Feng didn't have a special reaction, and this was the same as he thought.
"Your body is not the same as that of an ordinary onmyoji, if you compare the power of your clan to a lake, then your spiritual power circuit is equivalent to a pipe running through it, and there will naturally be no problems without any changes, but ......"
Under the gaze of the slightly curious gaze that was rare in the ancient style, the middle-aged man continued.
"If something happens, it's not to be underestimated, just like you're in now."
"Your spiritual power circuit is like a pipe that has been squeezed by a powerful external force and deformed, although it has not been destroyed because of this, and the circulation of spiritual power can barely be maintained, but it is only there, and it is no longer a state that can allow the spell to be released smoothly."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man seemed to glance at Gu Feng meaningfully.
"In addition, forcibly infusing spiritual power can indeed fill the circuit for a period of time, restoring it to the point where it can cast spells. But...... This is nothing more than a palliative measure, and this kind of behavior similar to letting the pipe itself repeatedly relax and squeeze will only make the situation worse. ”
Gu Feng was silent, because he knew that he was right, and the most powerful evidence should be that he could no longer temporarily recover his spiritual ability through that way.
"The only way to call it a cure is to strip the power of your clan from ...... as far as I know."
This time, without waiting for the middle-aged man to finish speaking, Gu Feng interrupted.
"That kind of thing, if it were you, you should understand, is impossible."
"I know, so I'm just talking about the palliative approach."
After being interrupted by Gu Feng, the middle-aged man didn't say anything special, but continued to speak.
"This?"
As he spoke, Gu Feng unfolded his palm, and a delicate black porcelain bottle appeared in the palm of his hand.
"Yes."
The middle-aged man nodded.
"The pill inside can temporarily restore the effect of your spiritual power circuit, allowing you to regain all your abilities as an onmyoji."
"Specifically, a pill can exert the effect of an hour, but the time will change depending on the way you use your spiritual power."
"The higher the cost, the shorter the effect will last?"
"Exactly."
Putting away the porcelain vase in his hand, he groaned as he heard the affirmative response. In fact, he had just used the spatial spell attached to this garment to summon the porcelain vase into the palm of his hand.
The middle-aged man didn't bother Gu Feng, who seemed to be thinking about something, just looked at him.
The silence was not very long, and soon, Gu Feng still spoke in a slightly unaccustomed tone.
"So...... Can you answer some of my questions? Yame...... Uncle. ”
After being stunned for a moment, the middle-aged man replied with a wry smile.
"Of course, but ...... I'm a little surprised, I didn't expect you to remember me. ”
"It's not a surprise, my memory is pretty good, and besides, haven't you changed at all? For me, it's not normal to be able to forget easily. ”
It seems to be a casual answer, but it implies some common sense equivalent to that between onmyoji.
As the fit between the body and the soul increases, the Onmyoji will refine the ability to use spiritual abilities and gain a longer lifespan at the same time. At the same time, because of the needs of battle, the physical functions of the Onmyoji, including appearance, will stay in the prime stage for a long time. Take Abe Hachime in front of Gu Feng as an example, maybe his appearance is only about forty years old from an objective point of view, but his actual age may be eighty, one hundred or even a larger number.
"But your growth is obvious."
In response to the ancient style's words, Hachime said.
Under that premise, the life span of the ancient clan will be drastically shortened due to their own strength, which is undoubtedly ironic.
"How did you get that thing?"
Gu Feng didn't pay attention to the words like greetings, and said to himself.
"It was sent here by someone."
Knowing that what Gu Feng was talking about was the red demon pestle, Bamu replied slowly.
"Did you leave that pill with you at that time?"
"Yes."
"So, were you in Onmyojuku at that time?"
"I'm ashamed to say that I was dealing with a supernatural incident in an area at the time, and I wasn't in this Yin Yang School, so I didn't see with my own eyes who that person really was."
"What about eyewitness accounts?"
"When that......
Eight eyes looked at the ancient style, not steady, but the appearance of wanting to speak and stopping.
"Please don't worry."
Gu Feng was a little anxious to show what he desperately needed to know.
According to the testimonies of many students, they seemed to see a vague red figure, as well as ...... You. ”
I probably don't think this kind of remarks are credible, Gu Feng obviously only arrived today, no matter what, it is impossible for anyone to see Gu Feng before, and Yamu was a little hesitant when he said it.
However, when he heard such untrustworthy words, he confirmed something and continued to ask questions.
"When, please?"
"Three months ago, after that, I sent someone to your city, and you should have realized this." Hachime resumed his original tone and continued.
"So, the last question."
Having said that, Gu Feng had already stood up and asked the so-called final question with his back to Abe Hachime.
"To what extent do we look like each other in your eyes?"
After asking this question, Gu Feng did not wait for Abe Hachime to answer, and walked straight to the door.
After Gu Feng left, only Abe Hachime with a cloudy expression was left in the room, and as the head of the family, the things that could move him would definitely not be everything.
There were already turbulent waves in his heart, and Abe Hachime knew that Gu Feng's so-called question was just a hint, or an affirmation of the thoughts that were faintly in his heart.
That person is Gu Feng's father!
He had thought about it more than once, but each time he was overturned by himself. No matter how similar they are, there is a gap of 20 years between the two after all.
The Gu clan was different from all the Yin and Yang families, except for the combat power that could be called against the sky, most of them had a lifespan of no more than forty, and their physical growth was no different from that of ordinary people. Therefore, it is impossible to conclude that "the person you see is the ancient style", and at best, it is "a person who looks like the ancient style".
If what those students say is true, then ......
Abe Hachime suddenly came up with a conjecture in his heart that could even make him feel like he was in an ice cellar, which Gu Feng had already come to when he saw the demon pestle.
