Chapter 41: The Three Kings
Tang Yichuan fooled the ζ’Όζ, and the ζ’Όζ, who forgot that he was willing to follow Tang Yichuan instead of Gu Xi, made Tang Yichuan not know whether to be happy or worried.
However, in view of the fact that Yan Hongyu said something like that, Han Qi was calculated by Tang Jiangshi, he felt that it was more reliable to keep Han Qi by his side for the time being, and it was also convenient to protect Gu Xi.
The Han Qi who has lost his memory is surprisingly good at flickering, just like a simple child, Tang Yichuan will believe whatever he says, except for the powerful aura on his body, it is not like Han Zhu who is one of the four legendary beasts at all.
Coaxed Han Zhu to his side, except for Chaos's reluctance, the rest of the people didn't have much opinion.
And Chaos's reluctance also disappeared without a trace after knowing that Han Qi lost his memory, and soon, Chaos also began to be troubled by the problem of memory, and Chaos found that he didn't remember his past, because it had always been logically by Chiyu's side, so it never thought about its past, what was it like before? Where it used to be, it doesn't remember at all.
When asked about Chiyu, Chiyu spread his hands and said that he didn't know the chaotic past, and he didn't even know his own past, so how could he know the chaotic past.
For a while, the three demon beasts were haunted by their own memories.
Tang Yichuan began to feel strange, so immortal, why didn't these demon beasts remember their past, even if they were demon beasts, they should have a past, but they didn't remember anything, as if they had been erased by someone together.
Chiyu is better. I don't remember some of it, it looks like it's a drunken memory, and I should have been holding the wine jar all the time, so it's not strange to get drunk and forget some drunken memories.
But Chaos is different from Han Qi, they also woke up not long ago, they also feel that they have something to accomplish, but they also don't remember what it is, and even more similarly, they have no impression of their memories before waking up, Chaos doesn't remember anything before following Chiyu. Han Qi has no memory of before he got on Gu Xi's body.
In fact, Tang Yichuan didn't care much about the memories of these demon beasts. It doesn't matter if he's weird or not, it has nothing to do with him.
He now felt that it was more important to leave this place, and then ask Tang Jiangshi what he knew, and for no reason he felt that Tang Jiangshi was terrifying. It was more terrifying than he had foreseen.
After returning to the Canary's Inn. Tang Yichuan saw a person waiting for him. One demon, one ghost.
Sure enough, it was a big tree, and as soon as they entered the ghost town, they had already attracted the attention of the three forces in the ghost town. Now the people, demons, and ghosts are all together, and they all come to invite him.
The canary sat in the counter, the abacus in his hand crackled, as soon as he heard the movement of someone entering the door, he looked up and saw Tang Yichuan and immediately said: "The person you are looking for is here, I guess he is in charge of that group of people." After all, he has always paid for it, he is really rich, and he went to the opposite side to shop, how about it, is the girl on the other side beautiful? β
"Mr. Tang, the Demon King is invited."
"Mr. Tang, the ghost king is invited."
"Mr. Tang, the king of people is invited."
Tang Yichuan: "......"
"So many kings." Xu Qiu glanced at the three guys in front of him who were blocking their way into the inn, "Can you let me go, you guys are blocking our way." β
"......" The three guys retreated to both sides in unison, and at the same time they all looked at Tang Yichuan with expectant eyes.
Waiting for Tang Yichuan and a few people to enter the door, the three of them silently followed Tang Yichuan's side, glaring at each other, you glared at me, I glared at you, and whispered to warn each other that they came first.
Chi Yu went upstairs by himself, holding a jar of wine from the opposite side in his hand, and drank it very refreshingly as he walked upstairs.
Chaos and Han Qi are still struggling with the situation of their loss of memory, and Chaos has changed from Han Qi's hostile state to "Why do I hate you when I see you?" It's strange, I don't remember the past, I don't have any holidays with you, why can't I get along with you? β
Han Qi scratched Gu Xi's head, thinking about what he had forgotten.
Tang Yichuan was a little worried that the hair on Gu Xi's head would be scratched by Han Qi, and when he looked back, Gu Xi might wake up and die of depression because he had become bald.
"I really want to forget what I had to do." Han Qi looked at Chaos seriously and said, "The aura on your body is so familiar, we know each other, right?" β
"I've all said that I know you - hey, I don't have any memory of you, why do I know you're Han Qi when I smell your breath?" Chaos was in a state of confusion.
Xu Qiu asked, "Are you going with them to those kings?" β
"I don't really want to go." Tang Yichuan glanced at a person, a ghost, a demon, and three kings, he didn't know which one to meet, so he didn't want to go, and he didn't want to cause trouble.
That person, a ghost, and a demon were still arguing, but when they heard Tang Yichuan's words, they suddenly looked at Tang Yichuan with wide eyes, and said in unison: "Don't go?" β
"No, no." Tang Yichuan thought for a while, "If you have to meet, let the three of you come here to see you." β
"None of the kings are gone?" The long white, white and tender teenage boy blinked and looked at Tang Yichuan with beautiful eyes.
"The Demon King is gone?" The dog demon who turned into a scrawny man flatteringly wagged his tail behind his back.
"Mad Dog, go away. Mr. Tang, you don't even see the ghost king? A white-faced female ghost wearing gold and silver looked at Tang Yichuan with resentment, as if Tang Yichuan owed her a life.
"I just said that you can come here to find me, but I won't take the initiative to meet me. If you want to meet, please come over at the same time, and I happen to have something to ask them. Tang Yichuan said.
Knowing that this site belongs to Ruyifang, Tang Yichuan is very relieved that there will be no fighting here. So even if the dog demon, female ghost, and little boy in front of him are very angry, they won't fight, let alone hit him.
Xu Qiu had already gone upstairs, and Tang Yichuan called out to Han Qi, who was discussing what the important thing he had forgotten about Jiì, and went upstairs with Chaos, and directly put aside the people who invited him to meet the three kings.
"You didn't even ask me if I agreed or not." The canary poked half of his head out of the counter and pouted, "This will add money!" β
"Come on, add it......" Tang Yichuan saw it. This canary doesn't care about anything. But the main concern is money. Open the door to do business, love money is also really right.
"You really don't see our king?" The little boy asked pitifully.
"It will be enough to bring my word to your king." Tang Yichuan said, "Goodbye." β
Chaos and Han Qi followed behind Tang Yichuan and continued to discuss the matter of amnesia. Chaos was annoyed. Grabbed Han Zhu's collar and said, "It's all because of you." If you don't tell me, I don't know I'm amnesia! β
ββ¦β¦ But you do have amnesia. I don't say you're still amnesiac. β
"That's different!"
"Different?" Han Qi thought to himself, wouldn't he lose his memory if he didn't say it? Really?
"Does the past matter?" Tang Yichuan walked to the door of the room. Suddenly remembered, forgot to open a room for ζ’Όζ, ζ’Όζ had no place to sleep, looked at Chaos, and thought, Chaos would be willing to share a room with ζ’Όζ? Chiyu shouldn't mind, right?
"If I can't think about it, I think it's important, I definitely have something to do, but I forgot about it." Chaos said with a headache.
Tang Yichuan smiled and said, "That's right, you guys will sleep together tonight and continue to discuss." β
After speaking, Tang Yichuan had already stuffed Han Qi into the room between Chaos and Chi You, and shouted to Chi You: "Chi You, Han Qi will drink with you tonight, it's not interesting to drink alone, only when you have someone to accompany you is energetic." β
Chi You, who was lying on the carpet, turned his head blankly, and the wine jar that was originally pillowed under his head gurgled and rolled round: "......"
Chaos wanted to dump the slapstick to Tang Yichuan, but it was too late, and the door was closed by Tang Yichuan.
Back in the room, Fusheng had already woken up, Tang Yique's snoring came and went, playing an unprecedented rhythm, Fusheng squatted next to him, angrily pulling Tang Yique's nose.
"Where did you go?" Fusheng was immediately relieved when he saw Tang Yichuan.
"I got Gu Xi back." Tang Yichuan said.
"Where?" The floating probe probed his brain, but he didn't see Gu Xi follow up.
"In their room." Tang Yichuan said, "Han Qi lost his memory, and he even fooled him around. β
"Amnesia?" Monsters also have amnesia? Fusheng rolled his eyes, "It's not pretending, is it?" β
Tang Yichuan smiled and shook his head, "Chaos doesn't remember his past. β
Fusheng was stunned for a moment, "Chaos, ζ’Όζ...... Gluttony, poor and strange...... Amnesia? β
Fusheng looked as if he had thought of something, Tang Yichuan suddenly became vigilant, he knew, Fusheng knew a lot of things, because Fusheng had lived for hundreds of years, although he seemed to be a pure child on the surface, he was an emperor after all, after all, he had lived in the underworld for a long time, and he should have heard a lot of things.
"I think I should remember something." Fusheng looked like he had a headache, something vaguely flashed in his mind, and it seemed to disappear suddenly, the four fierce beasts, what is the matter with the four fierce beasts?
"What's the matter? Can't remember? "Tang Yichuan always felt that it was not a good thing, after all, Han Zhu and Chaos were all fierce beasts, and Fusheng even mentioned two other fierce beasts, are the four fierce beasts all together?
Shouldn't gluttony and poor Qi also pop up? Especially gluttony, this guy is very greedy, and if he really wants to come out, it should be difficult to deal with, even if he is as brainless as Han Zhu or Chaos, he will definitely not forget to eat it.
Tang Yichuan shook his head, this didn't seem to be something he should care about, he was more concerned about whether he could leave.
Lying on the bed, Tang Yichuan thought about some questions in a daze, and then he entered his consciousness, the crystal coffin was still under the yin and yang tree, but the coffin was already empty, and the young man should be in the inn, but Tang Yichuan didn't look for the young man, and he didn't know if he could see it tomorrow.
There was black gas lingering around the coffin, this black gas, it looked very terrifying, like a black snake, making a hissing sound.
Tang Yichuan didn't get close to the coffin, just looked at the coffin from the side. Thinking thoughtfully about something.
After looking at the coffin for a while, Tang Yichuan summoned the black dragon again, he planned to try again, whether he could fly to the other side of the sea, this was his consciousness, he really wanted to know what was on the other side.
It's just that he was still just about to get close to the other side, and he couldn't get over, and the wind and waves beat him almost to pieces. The black dragon was also submerged under the waves. In the end, I had to retreat.
I had no dreams all night, and when I woke up, I opened the window, and it was still dark outside. The brothel across the street is still open for business.
Yan Hongyu stood at the door of the restaurant, holding a big bun in her hand, and gnawed very elegantly. As soon as he raised his head, he met Tang Yichuan's line of sight. Said "good morning".
In fact, Tang Yichuan couldn't hear that good morning, but he could see Yan Hongyu's mouth shape.
Tang Yichuan: "......"
In fact, I couldn't tell if it was morning or evening in this scene, if it wasn't for Yan Hongyu saying good morning. He really thought that he had slept for so long, it was not yet dawn, and the time was still early.
Although the outside world is also gray, and the evil aura covers the sky and the sun, it is possible to feel the passage of time, and here, Tang Yichuan deeply felt what kind of state Yan Hongyu said that time seemed to be static.
The brothel on the opposite side seems to have no intention of resting at all, the customers are still coming, there is no concept of time, what the outside world was like when they came yesterday, and now the streets outside are still the same, except for a few people walking around, nothing seems to have changed.
This is how time stands still.
Therefore, Yan Hongyu will not grow old, although she is a mortal, the years have not left traces on her body.
"Isn't it dawn yet?" Tang Yique rolled over, looked outside, yawned and planned to continue sleeping, but his stomach made a protesting sound and gurgling.
"Get up and have breakfast, there's still something to do after eating." Tang Yichuan said.
Tang Yique was reluctant, but he still got up.
Fusheng had already finished washing up and came out of the bathroom, Fusheng was very smart, although Tang Yichuan didn't say anything about time stopping here, but he seemed to feel it.
"Is there no concept of time here?" Fusheng leaned on the window and looked out, "The sky is always so dark, and the world is always brightly lit?" Day or night - no, there is no day here, it's like an underworld...... I remember! β
"What?" Tang Yichuan was startled by the floating life.
"The four fierce beasts, yes, the four fierce beasts, I remember that the underworld once said, the matter of the four fierce beasts." "The Lord of the Underworld once mentioned that the King of the Earth had sealed the memories of the four fierce beasts in order to prevent a catastrophe. β
"Jizo? What disaster? "I didn't expect the four fierce beasts to involve the Jizo King.
"I don't remember, I only know that the four fierce beasts were killed, and the souls entered the underworld, and no one could control them, and in the end, it was the King of the Earth who took control of them, and in order to completely contain them, their memories were sealed." Fusheng thought for a while and said, "Sister Hades should know more, but unfortunately I don't know where she is now. β
"She'll be fine." Tang Yichuan said resolutely.
Fusheng nodded, the Lord of the Underworld will always be very powerful, and no one can hurt her.
There are already a lot of "people" on the ground floor of the inn, there are all kinds of demons and monsters, everyone is eating breakfast, Tang Yichuan and his party attracted a lot of attention when they went down, after all, there are rarely more than ten people here, different creatures but act together.
The boundaries here have always been very clear, even in Ruyifang, monsters are still used to being with monsters, humans are still used to being with humans, ghosts are still used to being with ghosts, everyone has their own circles, but more Cheng dΓΉ, everyone is at peace in this big circle.
"Is breakfast here?" The canary began to sell again, "It's a good deal to have breakfast here, you can have whatever you want, and you can get a discount." β
"Isn't it free?" Tang Yichuan said, "I thought I would give breakfast." β
"There are so many of you, if you give them away, won't I die at a loss? It's all discounted, and it's not a, so don't bargain. The canary smiled and groaned, "There is an empty table on the left, sit casually, I heard that the three demon kings are coming to see you." β
"News so soon?" Tang Yichuan said unexpectedly.
"I guess, but it's not far from ten." The canary lowered her voice. Suddenly, the god said mysteriously, "Because our boss is also going to see you, we should come with the three kings." β
"Your boss, the owner of Ruyi Fang?" He originally planned to go to Ruyi Fang to have a look, but now it seems that there is no need, and the other party will come to the door by himself.
The canary nodded: "I should come over in the afternoon, come with the three kings." By the way, staring at the three kings, the three kings have never been to Ruyi Fang, and the master will definitely not rest assured that the three kings will come, since they are all here, she can't help but appear. Our boss is a master who is afraid of trouble. This time it's really enough trouble for her. The three kings, who had never met before, were about to get together. β
Tang Yichuan laughed: "According to what you say, your boss is afraid of trouble, and you dare to keep me here." Will your boss have to kick me out when he turns around? β
"That's not all. The boss is lazy. You've all lived here, and she didn't bother to rush it. The canary giggled, and her voice was melodious. attracted a lot of eyeballs to stare at her, but this time, she was not happy, "What to see, and then look at the money!" β
Everyone immediately lowered their heads, but everyone who lived here was constantly blackmailed by the canary, and the canary loved money the most.
Tang Yichuan and the others sat down to eat, Chiyu and Chaos were still discussing the lost memories, still firmly believing that they seemed to have forgotten something very important, and even this matter might have something to do with the two of them.
Thinking of Fusheng's words, Tang Yichuan felt a chill rise up his spine, and even the Jizo King wanted to make them forget about it, maybe it was really terrifying.
"Do you remember anything?" Tang Yichuan took a bite of a small steamed bun, looked at Han Qi and asked.
Han shook his head innocently, he had learned to restrain his breath, so sitting at a table would not make people feel too depressed.
"Must recall the past? I think the past is in the past, and remembering it is not much different from not remembering it, and even if I do, it doesn't change anything. Tang Yichuan followed the temptation, hoping that these two fierce beasts would not recall their past memories again, if they really recalled something terrible, it would be a big trouble.
"No, I have to remember." Chaos snorted and squinted at Tang Yichuan, "What do you mean by this, with a heart!" β
That's smart. Tang Yichuan pursed his lips, "Seeing that you think too much of a headache, I also have a headache, why torture yourself." β
ζ’Όζ was also very stubborn, "How is this torture, everyone should have their own past, I can't forget my past." β
ββ¦β¦ But you're not human. β
"But I also have a memory!" Han Qi's eyes were firm, and then a little gloomy, "Even he has a memory......"
Who is he? Tang Yichuan thought about it, and reacted that what Han Qi said should be Gu Xi, he thought about the matter, and immediately asked, "Do you plan to occupy Gu Xi's body all the time?" Don't you think it's too much for you to take over his body without his consent? β
"Who said there was no negotiation, he was willing to lend me for a while." Han Qi snorted coldly.
"Okay." Tang Yichuan really didn't expect that Han Qi would discuss it with Gu Xi, and Gu Xi would agree to Han Qi to lend him his body for use, and he was not afraid that his body would be used badly.
After filling his stomach, Tang Yichuan ordered a few people in front of him to do business, and several people divided into several groups to investigate the situation here, to determine whether they really couldn't leave.
After dispersing, Tang Yichuan first went back to the place where he entered the door to take a look, and to his surprise, the previous hut and those ghost guards were gone, and even the door was gone, and they seemed to be really trapped in this ghost town.
"What's going on?" Tang Yique was taken aback, "How could it be gone?" β
"Trapped." Tang Yichuan said, "Go and see if there is really no exit." β
"I guess not." Tang Yique said with a sad face, "I think there are some evil sects in this place, and a grave pile can become like this, no matter how it is, it can't be done." β
"I don't care if he's evil or not." Tang Yichuan said, "If you are really trapped here, it seems that you have to go to Su Mei for advice." β
Tang Yichuan felt that maybe Su Mei had done some kind of tricks, and there was a young man, maybe he also knew something.
Turned around and went to the other direction of the ghost town, and sure enough, he didn't find any exit, Tang Yichuan was probably sure that they were really trapped, thinking of the ghosts who were in a hurry with the ghost order before, Tang Yichuan was suddenly indignant, those ghosts didn't even tell him about the situation. (To be continued......)
