Chapter 15: Letters from Thirteen Years Ago
Piled up in the small yellow cave, Tan Yu grinned in the mirror, and tied a purple potion to his forehead with a bandage. And the culprit who made Tan Yu so embarrassed sat on the side with an expression of indifference.
"This amazing sense of immediacy ......" Tan Yu sighed weakly, and then took out the plastic bag that he took out of Tan Yi's house.
"Let's skip the afternoon class on the grounds that I had a fatal trauma to the head...... Although Kui Tong said that he had suspended my class......" Tan Yu said to himself as he opened the plastic bag and took out the letter.
"What's that?" Xiangwei looked at Tan Yu, who was about to open the envelope, "Letter?"
"Yes, it was a letter that my mother gave me thirteen years ago and told me to read it again when I was eighteen. Tan Yu nodded and said, "The cross and the black card are the same. I used it again when I was eighteen, because I was always worried that one day I would be driven by curiosity to open the envelope early, so I left it all in the last place I wanted to go. ”
"Is that your father's house?" Xiangwei looked at Tan Yu with a strange expression, "And then, today happens to be your eighteenth birthday, and you can't wait to take out all your mother's relics?"
"That's right. ”
Tan Yu said as he opened the envelope and took out the letter paper. And Xiangwei also came over, wanting to see the letter that spanned thirteen years with her own eyes.
On the letterhead, which has been damp and a little damp and yellowed, there are beautiful words flowing like a trickle:
"Xiaoyu, when you read this letter, I think you should have already parted ways with your father, and you should have been bullied by your classmates a lot......
As soon as they saw the first sentence, Tan Yu and Xiangwei shivered at the same time, and a feeling that their lives were being spied on spontaneously.
"It's a fortune teller's words, but I think it's better to believe what you don't believe or not. So, Xiaoyu, no matter what happens to you, don't be discouraged, don't be afraid, your mother is by your side, right on your chest. 』
Tan Yu touched the black cross on his chest.
"By the time you read this letter, I should have been dead. Although I know that it is useless for me to say it, and I know that you have been the kind of child who will do what you believe will be done to the end since you were a child, I still want to say, don't investigate the cause of your mother's death too much, even if you have strong abilities in the future. 』
"Wear the cross well, and carry the black card with you. Those were very useful talismans that my mother had begged from the masters. 』
"There's a lot more to my mother than that. Eat well, sleep well, study well, chat well, play well...... Of course, there is also a sentence, happy eighteenth birthday. 』
That's all there is to this letter.
After reading the letter, Tan Yu's hair covered his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression.
After two or three seconds of silence, he actually shed tears while holding the letter......
"Mom is really good to me...... That's love......"
Although Tan Yu was feeling sad on the side, Xiangwei didn't feel the same way. Rather, she was looking at the yellowed letter paper in Tan Yu's hand with great surprise.
What a coincidence......
It's a coincidence anyway.
The matter between Tan Yu and Tan Yi, the matter of Tan Yu being bullied, and the fact that Xiangwei has not yet confirmed, but it is definitely as Tan Yu's mother said, 'investigating the cause of death'.
Although the whole text of the letter is in a speculative and skeptical tone, this kind of letter, which is like a suicide note for a child, only mentions Tan Yu's father once as if it were unintentional. Even if the relationship between Tan Yu's parents was not good in the past, Tan Yu's mother at least reminded Tan Yu how to face his father in the letter! As a result, Tan Yu's mother didn't say a word about this kind of thing.
Half of the letter is devoted to Tan Yu's words of concern after thirteen years, while the other half is just asking Tan Yu to bring a talisman and not to investigate the cause of his mother's death. It seems that the real intention of the letter lies in the latter two points.
The logic of the letter was very strange, and the speculative tone and caring words seemed to disguise her true intentions. Let the originally abrupt request be as plain as possible, and it will be easier for Tan Yu to accept it.
There is a big problem!
But even though Xiangwei found the letter extremely weird, she couldn't clearly explain what was going on. The only thing that can be seen from the letter is that Tan Yu's mother must have asked Tan Yu out of good intentions.
Don't investigate the cause of death, bring a talisman.
Is there really such an amulet? The cross is understandable, but what about that weird card?
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became, and Xiangwei, who couldn't understand the truth of the matter at all, could only pat Tan Yu's shoulder faintly, "Birdman, listen to your mother, bring the cross and cards." ”
"It's a must!" Tan Yu said firmly.
"So, since you're going to skip the afternoon class, the rest of the time is going to learn demon magic with me. Xiangwei said seemingly casually.
"Okay! That's what I was going to do!" Tan Yu said excitedly.
Xiangwei stood in front of Tan Yu, raised a finger, and inhaled it violently, forming a vortex out of thin air, and the spirits in the whole room attracted by Xiao Huangben's color qi were inhaled by Xiangwei.
She clenched her fists, her orange-red eyes suddenly became extremely clear, and an astonishing momentum emanated from Xiangwei.
This momentum is not spiritual power, nor is it killing intent. It's a majesty that makes people think of bowing down.
Xiangwei's little hands gradually reddened, and finally fiery red scales appeared. Scales covered her skin from her elbows to her hands, from her knees to her feet. Her hands and feet had turned into lizard-like claws, but her hands and feet had incomparably sharp nails, red like burning flames.
A thick dragon's tail flicked behind her, sweeping away the yellow book that took up the space.
Dark brown horns grew on both sides of Xiangwei's head, and behind her grew a pair of giant dragon wings that proved that she was the most high-ranking demon and the symbol of the dragon clan!
At this moment, Xiangwei is not at all an existence that can make Tan Yu call 'Sister Xiangwei', and her eyes are full of pride. She is the most high-ranking demon, she is a dragon, she has the noblest bloodline of the demon race, and she is a strong person who should despise the human race.
Tan Yu was stunned and looked at Xiangwei, who exuded a majestic momentum that made people surrender, her body shook, and she sat down on the ground.
"Xiangwei...... Sister......" he muttered to himself like a dream.
Seeing Tan Yu's shocked appearance, Xiang Wei smiled contentedly, and then she showed a playful smile that didn't match her temperament at all, "What's the matter, stupid birdman, does this scare you?" As she spoke, Xiang Wei pressed her right paw on Tan Yu's head and pressed it gently, "Aren't you going to learn demon magic from me?"
After being pressed by Xiangwei, Tan Yu suddenly woke up and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Sister Xiangwei, I was stunned for a moment just now." That one...... Let's get started!"
After seeing Tan Yu's reaction, Xiangwei nodded, "There are mainly two kinds of exercises I have cultivated, one is the fire technique that has been passed down from generation to generation by our dragon clan, the fire tree burns the sky. The other one is the secret method of the demon clan that only a very small number of demon clans know, the Nine Yin Demon Codex. The exercises of the dragon clan can only be used by the dragon clan, so the only formal demon clan exercises I can teach you are the Nine Yin Demon Classics. ”
Speaking of this, Xiangwei ...... with both hands With his claws pinching his waist, he stepped on the big rock, and looked down at Tan Yu condescendingly, "Speaking of which, birdman, have you decided what ability you want to cultivate?"
"I've decided, Sister Xiangwei. Tan Yu, who was sitting on the ground, also stood up, "I want to practice physical arts and swordsmanship." ”
"Pure melee type......" Xiangwei frowned.
"If you need a long-range strike, you can hand it over to Sister Xiangwei when the time comes," said, Tan Yu habitually touched the tip of his nose, "I'm responsible for protecting Sister Xiangwei at close range, so I must learn the kung fu of cutting people well." ”
Hearing that Tan Yu was going to exercise his physical skills and swordsmanship for himself, Xiangwei couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and her tone was a lot softer, "Hmph...... Humans can only cultivate two abilities at most, and if you cultivate two abilities, you may not be able to master spells, you have to think about it!"
"Sister Xiangwei, I just thought about it before I made this decision. Tan Yu looked at Xiangwei seriously.
“...... All right. ”
Xiangwei nodded hesitantly, stretched out her right paw, and pressed it on Tan Yu's head again, she said a strange mantra in her mouth, and then a huge stream of consciousness information drilled into her brain like an initiation.
Transformation Steps, Shura Fist, Nine Yin Demon Classics, Nine Yin Demon Sword.
Four words came to mind, and then four different cultivation methods also appeared.
"I have passed on to you the four exercises with the empowerment technique. Xiang Wei, who was losing a lot of spiritual power, said with some strength, "The Tribulation Step is a footwork created by the eighth generation of the Dwarf Patriarch of the Demon Realm, this kind of footwork can make the opponent unpredictable, and the speed is extremely fast after cultivation, mainly used for dodging and escaping, of course, if you use it in attack, it is not impossible." ”
"Shura Fist is a boxing method created by one of your human generals when he became a high-level Shura after his death, this kind of boxing method later fell to our demon world, this set of boxing method To be honest, many people in the demon world are cultivating, so now it seems that its value among demon cultivators is not very high. But I think it's still extremely valuable to you, an ordinary human being, and since it was originally made by a human being, you must have some affinity for cultivating it......
"And the Nine Yin Demon Code can help you practice the Nine Yin Demon Qi, and with the Nine Yin Demon Qi, you can cultivate the Nine Yin Demon Sword. Xiangwei's voice became quieter and quieter. Xiangwei is very proud of her identity as a dragon, so she is also arrogant when she cultivates, and she does not cultivate some scattered small spells thoroughly, but concentrates on learning the big spells. In this way, Xiangwei, who does not have much demonic power now, is quite difficult to exercise the ordinary spell of the empowerment technique, and even has to turn into a half-dragon to be able to launch it.
"I see! Thank you, Sister Xiangwei. Tan Yu looked at Xiangwei gratefully.
"Okay!" After the last bit of information was transmitted, Xiangwei breathed a sigh of relief, instantly turned back into a human form, and collapsed on Tan Yu's big mattress, "It's still a human form to save spiritual power...... " After she couldn't help but sigh, she patted Tan Yu's back, "Birdman, you try to run the Nine Yin Demon Book first." ”
"No problem!"
After that, Tan Yu crossed his legs and closed his eyes, and began to try to push the loose spiritual power that was still like cotton in his body according to the requirements of the Nine Yin Demon Codex.
Although it looks like cotton, it is like air when pushed, and the aura feels very difficult to control.
It took Tan Yu half an hour to grit his teeth and barely let the spiritual power flow slowly, and after Zhou Tian struggled to walk around the size of his body, Tan Yu's consciousness came to a small point under his heart.
"This is the Heavenly Wheel Fantasy Realm. Tan Yu muttered to himself as he frowned.
The Heavenly Wheel Illusion is a necessary place for the flow of spiritual power to form a complete circuit, but the current Heavenly Wheel Illusion gives Tan Yu a very bad feeling.
The crack that tore through the starry sky behind him, the huge eyes in the darkness of the abyss......
It's hard to tell whether it's a cold-blooded and ruthless or a curious and playful gaze, an incomprehensible feeling, that eye......
Looking at the sticky spiritual power mass in front of him, Tan Yu gritted his teeth.
We've all come here, and we can't give up all our efforts......
Thinking like this, he made every effort to channel the flow of spiritual power to the Heavenly Wheel Illusion and injected it into the first Heavenly Wheel of the Heavenly Wheel Diagram.
However, the task is even more difficult than having someone carve a few words on marble with moldy wood chopsticks. Tan Yu wanted to let the spiritual power flow into the heavenly wheel and make it spin, but there was no adhesion between the spiritual power and the heavenly wheel at all, whenever Tan Yu just pasted the spiritual power on the heavenly wheel, the spiritual power either rushed to the side along the arc of the heavenly wheel, or was immediately knocked apart.
Now don't say that the celestial wheel is full, now he can't even let the aura stick to the celestial wheel for three seconds.
Facing the Tianlun diagram, Tan Yu was extremely anxious.
If you can't stick it, you won't be able to pour spiritual power into the heavenly wheel!
I don't know when it started, but Tan Yu's consciousness body standing in the Heavenly Wheel Illusion Realm was already sweating profusely.
"What a piece of crap. ”
A dull voice without any emotion came abruptly from behind him. Tan Yu was shocked and turned his head suddenly.
In Tan Yu's single eye, which looked much bigger than the teaching building, there was a mocking coldness.
"Do you ...... No, you are really Hei Yu......" Tan Yu took two steps back vigilantly, and pressed his body against his dim Tianlun diagram.
"No, don't call me so distantly" The smile in his eyes was even stronger, "I am yourself, and I am also Tan Yu." Don't call me like an outsider. ”
"I don't remember my eyes bigger than a building......" Tan Yu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and forced a calm sneer.
In this starry sky, in the pale golden pupils that seemed to be composed of nebulae, a magic circle suddenly popped up. The edges and corners of the polygon are embedded with thousands of strange black oracle bone characters, which rotate in circles in the pupils of the eyes along the circular path.
"You...... What do you want to do!!" Tan Yu pressed his hand on his third celestial wheel in great horror, as if looking for someone who could help him, and when he saw the eight demon fire celestial wheels that seemed to be able to burn all things, he ran over without hesitation, hiding behind Xiangwei's celestial wheel, and confronted the strange huge eyes in horror.
"Don't be so nervous," the smile in his eyes still hasn't faded, "I've said it all, I'm also Tanyu, I'm you, and I won't hurt you." ”
After the eyes finished speaking, several oracle bone characters flew out of the magic circle in the pupils, forming a text array out of thin air in the air, as if some magic was composed.
In the next second, the few black words burst into a dazzling red light. Different from Xiangwei's fiery red, this red light is a more creepy crimson, which is a blood-red light.
The blood-colored light turned into a bow in the blink of an eye, and a blood arrow stabbed into the eyebrows of Tan Yu's consciousness body with lightning speed. Immediately, an unusually large amount of information and spiritual consciousness burned into the deepest part of Tan Yu's mind.
"This is a greeting gift. The eyes let out a sneering laugh, and in an instant they dissipated into the dark abyss.
Time extended by one breath, Tan Yu's originally whitish translucent spiritual power suddenly trembled violently, and the spiritual power seemed to be completely out of Tan Yu's control, its color gradually turned into turbid blood red, viscous blood, surging along the strange route by itself, and even the first heavenly wheel that Tan Yu was helpless was instantly filled.
The monstrous aura burst out from Tan Yu's body, and the hairball that was curled in Xiangwei's arms was excited, and then he rolled his eyes and passed out.
Xiangwei's face changed drastically, and she looked at Tan Yu who was sitting in front of her with her eyes closed and expressionless in disbelief.
"Gone mad!?And it's still a !?."
