Chapter 9 Dependence on each other
"I remember that time, about 300 years ago, when I met her when she was only seven years old, and I was always by her side, watching her grow up, watching her get married, watching her grow old, watching her children and grandchildren all over the place, watching her ...... But until she died, she didn't remember who I was, and she always thought I was just her cousin, a cousin with a strange temper, who always asked her if she remembered who she was. β
Yi Feng didn't pay attention to Li Xiao, he muttered to himself, his thoughts seemed to fall into some kind of unbearable memory, and his handsome face was covered with a layer of gloom.
"Cousin, do you know that she actually calls me cousin!"
Yi Feng chuckled in a low voice, but Xiao Qiu clearly saw something shiny flickering in his eyes.
Yi Feng blinked vigorously, and continued, "There was another time, almost a hundred years ago. Do you know who she was that time? I was watching, watching her follow man after man. Until her death, she always disdained me around her, no matter how many identities and appearances I changed. I always thought that she didn't remember who I was, but the day she died, she told me that she knew from the beginning that the person around her was me, and she deliberately got close to countless men, but she never gave me a smile, just to irritate me and make me miserable. But why? After all these years, I have completely changed, for her sake, I have given up everything, I have given up my status, I have given up my dignity, I have given up my eternal life, I have even betrayed my kindred. Why does she still hate me like that? Why?"
Li Xiao looked at this strange man in surprise, where was Yi Feng at this moment still indifferent and calm a moment ago, a handsome face was slightly distorted, and suddenly two tears flowed out of his eyes.
"Why!" Yi Feng let out a suppressed low roar, slamming his palm on the stone handrail on the rooftop.
There was a soft "pop", and a trace of dark and strange lines floated from the back of his hand holding the handrail of the balcony, and then disappeared, and the hard and smooth handrail of artificial stone collapsed two deep palm prints in response, and a heavy breath also diffused in the night sky.
Li Xiao was taken aback, reached out and put his hand on his shoulder, and shouted in a low voice, "Are you crazy?"
The demon clan that has opened the spiritual wisdom, as long as the embarrassment breaks through the condensation period and enters the realm of qi accumulation, it can be incarnated into a human form, and the demon qi of the body can also be converged, the deeper the cultivation, the more difficult it is to be noticed, but once the demon clan shows its body, although the strength will suddenly skyrocket, but the demon qi cannot be concealed.
Anger can easily make a demon clan's love xΓΉ out of control, so as to show the demon body, but Li Xiao didn't know that excessive sadness would also make a demon clan show its original form, and the strange man named Yi Feng in front of him seemed to be out of control.
Yi Feng shook his shoulder hard, and Li Xiao only felt a huge force that was difficult to resist rushing towards him. Unexpectedly, Li Xiao jumped up with his strength and landed far away on the side of the balcony. When I looked up, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. At this moment, Yi Feng had already turned to look at him, his face was hideous, his killing intent was like a tide, and the two streamers in his eyes illuminated the night around him.
"I'm X!" Li Xiao cursed in a low voice and said coldly: "If you don't want to stay in this place anymore and find someone, then go crazy!"
As soon as he heard this, the invisible killing intent that filled the night sky suddenly disappeared, and the two streamers in Yi Feng's eyes quickly dimmed, he stayed in place, looking up at the sky, and the whole person didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't squeak anymore. Li Xiao was quietly on guard, but after a while, he saw that he was silent, and the whole person seemed to suddenly turn into a sculpture that could not speak.
Li Xiao finally couldn't help it, and shouted in a low voice: "Hey, what's the matter with you?"
"I'm fine. β
The sculpture came to life again, and Yi Feng's face regained its original indifferent and cold expression, and he said lightly: "I'm sorry, I haven't spoken to anyone for a long time, and I'm a little out of shape." Don't worry, I'm not here to compete with you for territory, and I'm not interested in knowing who you are. I didn't do that, I could have stayed in Hong Kong for a long time, and if I got into any trouble, I would take care of it myself, and I wouldn't bother your friends. If you're not here to kill me tonight, then now you can go. β
Li Xiao opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, thought about it, and finally just snorted. Glancing at Yi Feng coldly, Li Xiao stopped talking, jumped over, and quickly disappeared into the night.
When I returned home, there was already a glimmer of morning light on the horizon.
Li Xiao lived in the murderous mansion that Chu Xiaotian gave him. When Chu Xiaotian gave the house to Li Xiao, in addition to escaping death and being grateful, he also had the meaning of getting rid of this hot potato. After all, if this kind of thing happens, his plan to develop real estate is in vain, and this lonely house doesn't want to be sold, it's better to be a favor. He was worried that something else would find him, and now that the house was given to someone else, Die Dao Friend, Mo Die Poor Dao, so Boss Chu was also a little relieved.
Li Xiao knew that he had this thought, and he didn't bother to be polite to him, so he laughed at it without saying a word. This villa is small and exquisite, and the pool garden is also readily available, although the place is not large, and the facilities are not luxurious, but the layout is exquisite, which is very suitable for Li Xiao's heart. What's more, with this house, it is convenient to place the old ghost, this place was originally the old ghost's "residence", since he can't bear to kill him, how to settle him is still a very troublesome thing, this place has unique feng shui, a natural place to gather yin, just suitable for the old ghost to settle here.
Li Xiao's acquaintance with the old ghost also stemmed from the "murder house incident" four years ago.
The old ghost has no name and no surname, and is a veritable hundred-year-old ghost. Unless the ghost reaches the realm of divine harmony, no matter how advanced the Tao is, it needs to have the natal thing that stores the soul consciousness, once the natal object is destroyed, with the sunrise and sunset, the yin and yang are replaced, and a wisp of soul consciousness only weakens day by day, and finally the soul is scattered and disappears without a trace. The suffering of the fate of the wandering ghosts mostly refers to this kind of fate.
The old ghost had a habit of collecting antiques before his death, and a hundred years ago, he suddenly encountered a strange accident and died unfortunately, and by chance, a wisp of remnant soul was stored in an antique teapot next to ZΓ i. The tea shell was buried underground with him, and the remnant soul continued to absorb the yin spirit qi underground, and after decades, he finally let his six senses gradually open up and become a wild ghost who escaped reincarnation.
Later, the tomb was destroyed, and the teapot was stolen as an antique, and after several journeys, it was lost in this mountainous area, and since then the old ghost has made a home in this naturally evil place. During the day, he honestly stung in the teapot, in the dead of night only sneaked out to suck the essence of the moonlit night, for a long time, occasionally frightened some ordinary people who were born with too heavy yin, this mountain is called the "fierce land" The legend comes from this.
But the old ghost is naturally timid, and he has no obsession with harming people, and this place is finally safe and sound. Decades have passed, and although this kind of life is monotonous, this rare honest "ghost" has lived freely.
When Chu Tianxiao developed this land four years ago, the old ghost didn't want people to disturb him, so he deliberately made some small moves to scare people away. Who would have thought that Chu Tianshu didn't believe in evil, and as a result, the excavator went down, and the antique teapot where the old ghost stored his soul consciousness turned into pieces.
This time the matter is a big deal, the old ghost who has no natal storage is looking at his own soul to return to nothing, and he has never harmed others, and he has let it go, and he wants to drag Chu Xiaotian to the end with him. In fact, with his hundred-year-old Taoism, killing Chu Xiaotian, an ordinary person, is like pinching an ant to death. But the old ghost has been honestly holding his tail between his legs for more than a hundred years, and when he remembered to harm others, he realized that he was really not that material, and he had a ghost power, but he didn't know how to start. I had to use the Nightmare Technique that even ordinary wild ghosts with a little bit of mana disdained to use, to scare Chu Xiaotian to death. It's just that Chu Xiaotian, who was unlucky and suffered, was obviously powerless to resist, and he couldn't have a happy death, he was haunted by nightmares every night, and was tortured to death by clumsy old ghosts.
The mana of the Wandering Soul clan gradually deepened with age, although the old ghost was honest and timid, he had been a ghost for more than a hundred years, and the monks and Taoists who only relied on his mouth to eat invited by Chu Xiaotian naturally couldn't help him, and Zhang Biao's little magic was not in his eyes. It wasn't until Li Xiao appeared, he just reached out and touched the sleeping Chu Xiaotian's neck, and directly lifted him out of Chu Xiaotian's nightmares, pinching his neck, that he realized that something was wrong.
Then when he saw a little monster with a monkey body jumping off Li Xiao's shoulder, the old ghost's mind buzzed, and a record he had read before his death suddenly appeared in front of his eyes: "The demons in the world, only Bai Ze, Yan Tie, Shan Zhen, and Xuan Bee are respected...... The poor old ghost stared at a pair of ghost eyes, and stared blankly at the little monster who was tilting his head and looking him up and down, and after a while, the ghost eyes rolled and almost disappeared directly.
Yama - Among the four demon beasts at the head of the hundred demons, the Yama Demon is one of them. In the Ming Dynasty Taoist genius Six-Fingered Taoist wrote the "Records of the Mysterious Demon Charm", the ability to do evil ranked sixth! The Six-Fingered Taoist recorded the mountain demon as follows, "The human face, the monkey body, the shape of a child, can speak, is good at moving earth and stones, feeds on the ghost of the demon, and is good at controlling the charm and the evil spirit." And the demon body grows up, changeable, moves mountains and seas, and causes chaos in the world, and those who are not the best force cannot control it. β
As soon as the frightened half-dead old ghost came back to his senses, he threw himself to the ground at that time, hugged Li Xiao's thigh and cried bitterly, begging others to spare his "ghost" life. I almost didn't say anything like "pity me for having an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child below".
If you change to a ghost with a little guts, anyway, there is no natal thing, and the horizontal and vertical will also be the end of the soul, even if you are afraid, you will not be scared like this, and if you are ruthless, you may still be dead and struggling. But the old ghost's courage is too small, and the idea of being a low-key ghost with his tail between his legs has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow. But fortunately, he was able to survive after thinking that he was going to die.
The destruction of the natal storage of the Wandering Soul Clan is like the death of a human being, which is originally physiological. But the mountain demon was called the mountain god in ancient times, and he didn't mention anything else in advance, but he was good at controlling the ghosts of lonely souls, wild ghosts, and ghosts, but he was one of his natural abilities. It just went to the garbage heap and picked up a rotten teapot and threw it to the old ghost, who was immediately pleasantly surprised to find that the broken teapot actually carried its own natal brand, which was exactly the same as the destroyed teapot.
This person, a demon and a ghost, has made their home in this villa since then and depended on each other. However, in the eyes of outsiders, Li Xiao lives here alone, and only occasionally, there will be an hourly union to clean his room on time.
Li Xiao didn't turn on the light, and walked directly through the dark living room, bypassed the master bedroom, and followed the spiraling staircase to the basement of the villa. With a casual kick, there was a "bang", and the special heavy wooden door in the basement opened.
