Chapter 230: The Eagle Owl and Lin Yi
All along, the owl's memory seems to be sealed in a locked box, on which a thick layer of dust has already fallen, which must be swept away before opening. And this process was actually to reorganize his already chaotic thoughts, he paused for a while, and then began to tell Ling Yu his story from the beginning.
At that time, he had just become a demon. As for why he became a demon, it was all because he was young and vigorous, and he only wanted to constantly pursue himself to become stronger, and for this reason, he wandered around to challenge masters from all directions. One day, he suddenly encountered the Red Wolf Demon Scarlet Shirt, and he easily believed the monster's words, drank his blood, and turned into a demon. And the reason why this red wolf demon scarlet shirt will transform the eagle owl into a demon is only because of a sense of loneliness and loss generated by himself in the long-term victory, and there is no opponent, he can only create an opponent.
The eagle owl who had just become a demon, although he had greatly improved in strength, was obviously not the opponent of the red wolf demon scarlet shirt, and after countless rounds of fighting between the two, he was defeated by the other party without any suspense.
But instead of killing the eagle owl in the end, the Red Wolf Demon Scarlet Shirt left him seriously injured and left a word.
"Continue to cultivate after recovering from your injuries, and one day I will come back to you to compete!"
The eagle owl dragged his injured body, unable to maintain his human posture, so he had to stumble through the woods in the form of a bird.
When he awoke, he found himself lying in a warm nest, made of rattan and branches, perhaps to make his hands more comfortable, and the man who made the nest even spread a lot of cotton in it.
He felt that his body had regained some strength, so he rose from the nest, and when he turned his head, he found that his body and wings were tightly bandaged, and not only that, but even his claws were tied, as if he was afraid that he would flee before he recovered.
The eagle owl couldn't help but curse in his heart: it must be some damn human who caught me while I was injured, I have to wait to see who is so bold, I have to give him some color.
While waiting, he fell asleep unconsciously, and when he awoke again, he found a pair of very gentle eyes staring at him, it was a very delicate girl, even though she was wearing a blue coarse cloth dress, but still could not hide her beautiful face.
"Goo, are you awake?" The girl said excitedly when she saw the eagle owl raise its head from its nest.
The eagle owl continued to complain in her heart: Coo?! Unexpectedly, this stupid girl gave such a stupid name to me who was so noble!
"I've caught a lot of bugs for you, I'll feed you later, and eat more injuries to get better!" As she spoke, she took off a small bamboo basket hanging from her waist, lifted the lid, and found that it contained all kinds of insects, and she took a pair of chopsticks placed on the edge of the nest and held one of them and handed it to the eagle owl's mouth.
The eagle owl twisted his head, didn't even look at the insect, and continued to curse in his heart: I really think of me as a bird, but I'm also an eagle owl, so I should be fed a vole anyway.
"Looks like you don't like bugs very much, so how about this?"
The girl conjured up a roasted sweet potato out of nowhere, and shook it in front of the eagle owl. The aroma of roasted sweet potatoes is so irresistible that the eagle owl's gaze involuntarily follows it.
"This was supposed to be my lunch, no way, I'll share half of it!" The girl said three or two times and opened the sweet potato skin, and then no more, no less, just broke off half of it and put it on the edge of the eagle owl's nest.
It was only then that the eagle owl noticed that the girl had bandages all over her fingers, and she knew that she had saved herself nine times out of ten, and that she must have only treated him as an ordinary bird. She may not even know that the eagle owl is a bird of prey, and she knows that her family must be poor by looking at the dilapidated house and the simple furnishings in it.
He understood the way of the world at that time, and it was a problem for such a poor person to even support himself, so why should he save it? It couldn't help but take a deep interest in this little girl, and thought to itself that it was injured anyway, so it was better to stay and see what kind of person she was. So, the eagle owl began to spend time with the girl.
The girl's name is Lin Yi, the daughter of the Orion family, originally dependent on her father, and then her father never came back after a hunting trip, so she was the only one left in the family in the mountains. The eagle owl was not the first beast she had ever rescued, and from time to time she would bring home animals that had fallen into traps, been injured by hunters or other animals. When the eagle owl was there, I saw that she had saved foxes, hares and other animals.
And the wound on her finger was bitten by these animals when she was treating them, and the eagle owl could not understand it, these animals were just lower creatures in his eyes, and with their intelligence, they would not know how to be grateful at all, and they would not remember that she had saved herself, so why did she save these animals again and again?
Once, Lin Yi said to the eagle owl as if talking to herself: "My father was born in the Orion family, so he kept hunting all his life, and finally disappeared into the mountains and forests. I can't stop my father from hunting animals, but at least I can save as many animals as I can, and one day when I save more than he kills, my dad will come back, right? ”
The eagle owl couldn't help but laugh in her heart: What a stupid girl! His father, who was a hunter, must have died in the mountains and forests a long time ago, how could he ever come back?
But at the same time, he felt a little pity for this girl, and after her father disappeared, she preferred to stay in this deserted place to guard this dilapidated house and wait for her father. After the eagle owl recovered, although it was let go by the girl, it would come back to visit her from time to time. Every time the maiden saw it, she was always excited, and she knew that she must have thought that if the animal that finally understood Entu's appearance appeared, then perhaps a miracle would follow, and her father would eventually return here.
There seemed to be some kind of agreement between him and the maiden, that every three or five days he would fly to meet her on a cliff not far from her house, and that the maiden would always bring a roasted sweet potato and give it half of it. When it arrives, you will see a beautiful girl sitting on the edge of the cliff with her feet in the air, waiting for him to come with willow leaves and a beautiful tune. After a long time, there was an invisible bond between him and the girl, so he was reluctant to leave the mountain forest, and always wandered around there.
Such a calm and flowing day brought the demonic nature in his body under control, but at the same time, it also made him forget the red wolf demon scarlet shirt that once turned him into a demon. But Scarlet never forgot him, he had been watching his every move from afar, and his anger was overjoyed when he realized that he had completely forgotten his desire to become stronger for the sake of a human being.
It's rare that he has created an opponent for himself, how can he change it at will? He decides to take revenge, and the object of his revenge is Lin Yi, a human girl who completely destroyed his plan. Taking advantage of the eagle owl's absence, he took the form of him and came to meet the girl on the edge of the cliff, and cruelly wounded her severely. Looking at the girl's resentful eyes, he felt that his heart was filled with a joy that he had never seen before.
The dying girl endured the pain and crawled back home. When the real eagle owl went to the edge of the cliff to look for the girl, he couldn't wait for her, so he had to transform into a human form and go to her home, but he was greeted by her lying on the bed covered in wounds.
The girl in the dying state had begun to hallucinate, and actually mistook the eagle owl for her father, she stretched out her hand for the eagle owl to pull, and said intermittently: "Daddy...... I knew you would be back...... Although I was injured by the eagle owl that I had saved...... But...... But I don't regret it at all, because that's what it is...... Price it. ”
The eagle owl finally understood the reason why the girl was injured, and he immediately thought that the murderer was the red wolf demon scarlet shirt. He kept pouring his power into the girl's body, but he still couldn't save her. But the girl who thought her father had returned home because of the hallucination, but without a trace of regret, finally died in the arms of the eagle owl with a smile.
He built a tomb for the maiden on the side of the cliff where they often met, and buried her bones in the grave.
But the red wolf demon scarlet shirt appeared in front of him at this time, and he said with a smug face: "In vain, I helped you have such a powerful power, and you are willing to degenerate into the company of humans." What do you think? Now have you tasted the pain of the death of the weak human you hold dear before you? Besides, she thought she was killed by the eagle owl she saved until she died, which is really ironic, hahahaha! ”
"You did it!" The eagle owl only said a cold word, and red flames began to erupt around its entire body.
"Haha, it looks like my demon blood has fused well inside you! I feel the strong killing intent in you, very good! After speaking, the red wolf demon scarlet shirt also transformed into a human form, and used his strength to prepare for a big battle with the eagle owl.
The eagle owl took the lead in attacking, and the weapon he originally used was the blue owl brocade similar to the jade sleeve brocade, and after integrating the magic of the red wolf demon shirt, it was transformed into the magic owl brocade, and the original brown brocade also became the color of red and gold, and the strength and strength were also greatly improved compared to before.
The Red Wolf Scarlet Shirt's weapon is the Demon Wolf Claw, which is sharper and harder than steel, and the last time it fought, it easily cut off the Eagle Owl's Owl Brocade. But this time, both in terms of its eyes and the power emanating from its body, the eagle owl is very different from before.
The Eagle Owl threw the Owl Brocade at the Red Wolf Demon Scarlet Shirt in an attempt to entangle it, but the Scarlet Shirt dodged back and forth at lightning speed to avoid the Magic Owl Brocade and returned to his Demon Wolf Claws. The eagle owl did not hesitate to withdraw the magic owl brocade to resist, according to the previous experience of the scarlet shirt, he thought that the demon owl brocade would definitely be torn to pieces by his demon wolf claws, but he didn't expect that this time, the demon owl tightly wrapped his weapon with magic power.
Instead of tearing apart his Owl brocade, the scarlet-shirted wolf's claws formed a spark when it rubbed against it, one of which hurt his eyes when it burst out, and he couldn't help but close his eyes, while the Eagle Owl took the time to fly up and kick him out of the way.
The scarlet shirt, who was unfavorable, raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said with an arrogant smile again: "Very good, your actions are much more determined than before, and it was right to kill that human girl!" ”
Hearing him mention Lin Yi again, the anger in the eagle owl's chest burned even more, and he no longer hesitated and decided to put the red wolf demon scarlet shirt who killed her in front of him to death in one go.
