Chapter 219: The Dove Demon Incident
"Father, what's going on?"
As soon as Ouyang Hongye finished speaking, a woman in red stumbled in from outside the door, and knelt down at Changqin's feet and asked in a choked voice. In fact, she had been hiding outside the door for a long time, and what Ouyang Hongye said seemed to have greatly stimulated her.
"I said earlier, we can hide it for a while, but we still can't hide it for a lifetime, after all, we have lived too long!" Liuli stood up and walked over to the woman in red, stroked her bun, and said quietly.
The woman raised her head and looked at Liuli with a pair of pear blossom and rainy eyes, and then everyone noticed that there was a birthmark on each side of her cheek and under the eyes, which was more like two totems. Ouyang Hongye had seen these two totems in the book, and they symbolized the god of wind and the god of music respectively.
Changqin saw that he could no longer hide it, so he had to sigh and get up from the chair. Even though she was paralyzed from choking, the woman in red stood up and held him up. At this time, everyone found out that in fact, she and Changqin looked very similar, with the same tall figure, but there was a trace of bewitching in her handsome facial features.
"I didn't expect you to be able to uncover such a long time ago, I thought that this secret had been hidden by me seamlessly, although I said that it was just to protect this child from any harm, but maybe I was also atoning for myself." Everything in the past reappeared in Changqin's mind, and the indelible guilt made his voice tremble, "At the beginning of the Heavenly God Qiansu-sama's proposal to unite the gods and demons, although I resisted, but I was not resolute enough, after Yueqin was born, although I thought about taking her and Ruri to escape, but in the end I couldn't make up my mind...... It was I who sent my daughter to the Divine Judgment House that caused the tragedy that followed. ”
"Say no more, Changqin! You know it's not your fault! Liuli persuaded him on the side. She never blamed Changqin, thinking that Nei, as the former god of music and Qiansu's subordinate, was his duty.
After Yueqin successfully became one of the four gods, every year on the day of the snow in Yunwu Mountain, Changqin would still come to the demon world to find the hidden path leading to the Youlan Cave Mansion to meet Liuli. But just sitting face to face with her, or playing with her, or chatting aimlessly with her, even this was enough to comfort the pain and depression that had always been difficult in his heart. The pools and stone bridges in the Youlan Cave Mansion were built by him for Liuli year after year, and those flowers and plants were also planted by him for her.
From time to time, the news of him and Yueqin, the daughter of Liuli, would reach his ears from the mouths of other people in the Divine Domain, and he thought that everything would be as simple as Qiansu said, and the father-daughter friendship between him and Yueqin would really be completely broken as she became a divine judge.
But in fact, when the Four Gods successfully complete a task, he will feel a heartfelt gratification; When the four gods were in danger when they encountered a strong enemy, he longed to be able to go there in person to help Yueqin, and his heart was always worried about the daughter he couldn't meet, and he never changed.
Time flies, the four gods have been in office for hundreds of years, and they have already become the favorite generals of the gods, but the sense of self-blame in Changqin's heart has never disappeared, and it completely broke out after the four gods escaped from the gods.
Hundreds of years of companionship, Yueqin and Feng Lan have long been in love with each other, but because of their identity as gods and demons, and their special attributes as a generation of gods and demons, if they are combined, they will commit a taboo in the god domain. Yin Zhen and Meng'er, who were closest to them, had long been aware of the relationship between the two, and they were also secretly keeping the secret for the two of them, until the battle with the dove demon Chitose came, breaking the original balance.
Doves are poisonous birds, but at the same time, their blood has the effect of treating serious injuries and fighting poison with poison. This Hatose Chitose is the bird demon who cultivates Chidori, he has a good nature, in order to change the inherent perception and fear of doves around him, he began to study medical skills, and opened a medical clinic in Wangcheng Yongchuan to treat the demons who come and go, and he can pay at will when he goes to his medical hall, and never force it. Over time, there was an endless stream of demons who came to him for medical treatment, and he never hesitated to use his own blood as medicine to distribute to those demons, even if he often fainted due to excessive blood loss.
One day, after he had saved several seriously injured people in a row, he was afraid that if he continued to administer blood, he was afraid that he would be in danger of his life. But there happened to be an old man and a young man who came to him for help, and they were all poisoned very strangely, although Hatochi Chitose also wanted to help them, but he didn't even have the strength to stand, so he had to leave them to stay in the infirmary first, and he went back to his room to rest.
Unexpectedly, after nightfall, the two monsters sneaked into the room in an attempt to harm him, and it turned out that the two of them had heard that if they could eat the flesh and blood of a dove that had lived for more than a thousand years, they would be able to increase their demonic power and become strong, so they pretended to be poisoned patients and infiltrated the infirmary.
Upon learning of their true purpose, Hatochitose kills both of them in a fit of rage. After that, rumors spread throughout the royal city, and the demons who had long been afraid of him because of the poison contained in his body said that the medical hall was just a disguise for him, in fact, many patients who had gone to the hospital were missing there, and they also said that those missing patients must have been killed by this Hatochitose.
The medical center that was originally a city was full of people because of the message, and the number of patients continued to decrease, but the suspicion of Hatose Chitose continued to deepen.
Hatose Chitose doesn't understand why he treats others with enthusiasm, but in the end he ends up like this, blaming himself for being a highly poisonous dove, but he has to go against the sky. Knowing this, it is better to obey the mandate of heaven and cultivate into demons, thinking that the blood he has given them is countless, and then he must ask them a hundred times and a thousand times the blood as compensation.
At this point, he abandoned the hospital and disappeared.
And hundreds of years later, the dove demon appeared. This dove demon is happy to sneak into the Yongchuan King City at night to attack other demons with poisonous feathers, and then after they are poisoned, drag them into their cave in the barren mountains outside the city, drink blood and eat meat, and before you know it, the white bones of the victim will fill a cave, so he will look for another cave.
The dove demon gradually became a taboo for the inhabitants of Yongchuan Castle, and the mere hearing of his name would make many youkai tremble and tremble, and everyone tried to stay at home at night so as not to become his prey. The long-term consumption of the blood and flesh of other demons has also caused the dove demon's magic power to continue to grow, and countless powerful demons have tried to join forces to get rid of him, but all of them have become his subordinates, and none of them have been spared to become his food.
In the end, seeing this, the gods sent the four gods to arrest him.
The battle between the Four Gods and the Dove Demon was extremely fierce, because the Dove Demon had been hiding in the barren mountains for a long time, and had also opened up countless caves to become their own labyrinth-like lair. After being pursued by the four gods, he led the four of them into his lair. Compared with the Four Divine Judgments, he has a very obvious advantage in the cave, his eyes have long been accustomed to the dark, and he is also very familiar with the terrain of the labyrinth in the cave. However, the Four Divine Judgments repeatedly got lost, and Yin Zhen and Meng'er were also poisoned by him one after another, and the combat effectiveness of the four of them was also reduced.
Even Feng Lan, who always seemed to be bohemian in battle, had to get serious when facing such a powerful and cunning doedemon. When he put away the signature bright smile on his face, it means that he is really irritated by the other party.
When the dove demon disappeared into a fork in the cave again, he commanded Yueqin: "Yueqin, you send Yin Zhen and Meng'er outside the cave first, and I will stay alone to chase the dove demon!" ”
Although Yueqin knew that Feng Lan would never be able to refute him when she was angry, she still couldn't help but say, "But...... Your abilities will be limited in this cave, and you will be in danger without my help! ”
"What? Do you think I'm no match for that monster? Feng Lan shouted while enduring the pain of the wound on his arm, in fact, he himself had been poisoned by the Dove Demon, but he didn't tell Yueqin about them.
"You know I didn't mean that, it's just ......"
"I am the commander of the Four Divine Judgments appointed by Lord Tenjin Qiansu, if you insist on not listening to my arrangement, you will not blame me!" Feng Lan put on the majesty of the commander.
Yueqin knew that if she continued to entangle, it would only make Feng Lan unhappy, so she reluctantly responded: "Okay, then I'll send them out and settle down first, and then I'll turn back and come to you!" ”
"Well, that's right!" The corners of Feng Lan's mouth raised slightly towards Yueqin, and then she turned around and ran towards one of the forks without looking back. For one more second of delay, his face would have been distorted by the severe pain caused by the poisoning.
He didn't think he would catch up with the dove so easily, so he could take advantage of this time to find a place to treat the poisoned wound on his arm, but he didn't think that this time he would be unusually lucky.
Not long after separating from Yueqin, he entered an open area. The smell of blood mixed with carrion came to his nose, and he couldn't help but hold his breath, and there was no drop of water in the sunken pond in front of him, but there were countless corpses.
The mutilated and decomposing corpses in front of him made him gag, but he soon noticed a pair of pupils staring at him above his head, and their two cold rays sent chills down his spine. He clenched the ice blade in his hand and looked up, and the dove demon that had transformed into the form of a natural bird was hanging upside down on the rock wall at the top of the cave and turned its head to look at him, and it had become very large in size by feeding on other demons endlessly, far exceeding ordinary bird demons or bird demons.
"Looks like this is the place for you to eat! How? After a fight with us, it consumed a lot of your physical strength, right? Feng Lan had some ridicule in his words, and in the face of the enemy, he had to hide the fact that he was poisoned.
"It's useless for you to pretend to be easy, I know you've been poisoned by me as soon as I smell it. Hahahaha...... I'd like to see how long you can hold on, even if you are a four-god judgment, you will fall in less than an hour at most, are your two companions no longer good?! ”
The dove's gloomy voice echoed through the cave, sounding as if he was more than one enemy to Feng Lan, who he knew was a hallucination from poisoning.
"Really, I knew I couldn't fool you, so I wouldn't pretend! It hurts so much to be hurt by your poisonous feather, and this pain goes straight to the heart with the blood, and every time you breathe the heart feels like it's going to explode, alas. Feng Lan sighed, no longer tensing her nerves.
"In that case, you're still here to die?" The dove asked him.
"What to do? I must fight for my companions to escape from your cave. It's better for me to die alone than to die with everyone hugging each other! ”
"I've heard a long time ago that you are monsters bred by Qiansu, and to put it bluntly, you are just a tool used by him, so why should you be so serious? Originally, I wanted to let you live, but now I'm really hungry, and when my stomach is empty, there will be no more reason to speak of, so just let me eat you! ”
