Chapter 10: Yan Huai'en
"Actually, the locust tree spirit is me, and I am the locust tree spirit. ”
Yan Bugui listened to the old man's speech, but suddenly he was scared half to death by the old man's next sentence. At that time, Yan Bugui thought in his heart: "There are really monsters in this world, and I really met them! The Yan family he said should have nothing to do with me! But ...... Then he won't eat me, will he?" Yan Bugui's eyes even showed panic and fear.
But Yan Bugui was alert after all, and thought again: "He seems to be quite kind to me, and he is also very kind, he shouldn't be a bad person." No, I guess it's not a bad youkai. ”
"Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. Because I am the same as you, I shed the blood of the Yan family. The kind voice of the old man in white sounded in Yan Bugui's ears.
Hearing this, Yan Bugui finally had to admit that this old man did have something to do with him. After that, the panic gradually calmed down.
After Yan Bugui relieved himself a little, the old man in white continued: "Later, I named myself Yan Huaien. 'Huai' and 'Huai' also refer to me as a locust tree. If you really want to rely on it, I can be regarded as one of your ancestors. So don't be afraid that I'm going to hurt you. ”
"That ancestor of yours, Yan Xiaotian, staggered out of the battlefield that day. Because what he saw and heard was too inhuman, and the stimulation was too great, this scholar could not let go of his feelings after all. In addition, the Yan family suffered a catastrophe, and the bloody scene always lingered in front of his eyes. I heard that after a few days, Yan Xiaotian was no different from a madman. ”
"It is said that on the day the Yan family was destroyed, although I had consciousness, I could also exert some mana. But after all, I had the consciousness of autonomy just now, but I didn't have the ability to leave the land, and I couldn't immediately transform into a human. ”
"After I absorbed the aura of heaven and earth in that training ground for 3 years, I was finally able to incarnate as an adult. Because of the blood, I must be more like Yan Baihe than the people in your family. In fact, even if people at that time had seen me, they would have thought of me as a swallow and white crane. ”
"Actually, according to the relevant records of 'Casting Blood Soul', I should have incarnated as a 10 to 20-something-year-old. But perhaps it was I who saw the desolation and tragedy of Yan Baihe's death at that time. Maybe I was more affected, maybe I was too sad at the time, or maybe the killing was too heavy and made me feel the vicissitudes of life. Anyway, that's what I was when I transformed. ”
"So in the future, I don't dare to show my face. Later, when I found Yan Xiaotian, he could already be said to be a real madman. I have some mana, but I can't do everything. I put him in a small village and asked someone to follow him for protection. I went to learn from the teacher, wanting to save the Yan Baihe family from the most powerful bloodline in the world. ”
"I'm afraid that Yan Xiaotian won't be able to wait for the torment of the years after all, so I tried every means to inquire about ways to treat Yan Xiaotian. A year later, I finally learned from my master that I could refine an elixir called 'Soul Forgetting Pill'. This elixir also needs to be killed. I think this is easy to do, and there may be something related to the suicide of the Yan Baihe clan in that place. ”
"Except for the same herbs refined, most of them can be said to be rare in the world, but they are also ordinary herbs in the world of cultivating immortals. So the key is in the last thing. That is the taproot of a 10,000-year-old tree. ”
"10,000-year-old trees? It is estimated that most of the 10,000-year-old trees are demonized. But the taproot is the lifeblood, unless it is the demon tree of death, and there will be a 10,000-year-old tree taproot. ”
"I finally asked my master if there was a way to replace my taproot. After all, I am a locust tree, and I should not be more than a thousand years old at the time, so it is obviously not a 10,000-year-old tree. My master consulted a lot of information, and finally said that my taproot should be fine, but I have a certain chance of losing my life, and even if I don't lose my life, I will be in a coma for 500 years. And even then, he may become mortal. ”
"I can't watch the Yan family's bloodline cut off, I absolutely ask the master to help me, and the master is very good to me. Resolutely let me sleep beside a spiritual spring to recuperate. Because of the effect of the spiritual spring, I woke up before 500 years. ”
"Ten years ago, I found your Yan family shortly after I woke up, and your grandfather was still there at that time. The Yan family's bloodline is still relatively thin, except for your grandfather, there are only three brothers from your father. Looking at their poverty, I really want to secretly give them a fortune so that they can live a better life. But Yan Baihe's last sentence echoed in my mind all the time. ”
"I think so, a lot of things are predestined, and manpower can't do it. Although I am not in the red dust, I must also act in accordance with the way of heaven, otherwise it may affect the Yan family. But luckily, I learned a 'eye sight' that has a lot of miraculous functions, which is to see some strange things. ”
"At that time, I saw that your mother was pregnant with Rokka, but the fetus in her womb was surrounded by a thin layer of mist. At that time, I didn't know whether the Dao was good or bad, so I went back to the master and consulted a lot of books and materials, and finally I knew that the Dao was just that you have a certain amount of immortal resources suitable for cultivating immortals. ”
"Ever since the master knew that I had this ability, he arranged for me to travel to the world from time to time to find those who had a certain immortal origin. But after all, this surgery can only observe the pregnancy from 6 to 9 months, so I have only found 3 or 5 over the years. ”
"But at the time, I wondered if your parents would approve of you going down this path. After all, the road to cultivating immortals is long, and it is a road of no return in itself. One day, I found your father and said that I was a Taoist priest of an immortal family, and also said that you have the potential to cultivate immortals in your mother's womb. Your father, they are in awe of the gods. Although he didn't know if there was a connection between the Dao Cultivator and the gods, he still agreed. But after the age of 18, one is to watch you grow up, and the other is to ask for your opinion. If you don't want to, then you have to do what you want. ”
"Anyway, your father is uneducated, and he asked me to help you choose a name that day. I didn't think of a good name, but Yan Baihe's most beautiful sentence lamented that 'everything is a road of no return!' rang in my ears. Then I thought about how cultivating immortals is not a point of no return, so I asked your father what his name was, and your father readily agreed because he was uneducated anyway. ”
"But lest it affect your mind, I ask him not to tell you about the name he has given you until he sees me again. ”
At this time, Yan did not return, and it was consistent with the facts. It seems that in the early years, some people thought that their name was strange and suggested that their father change his name, and his father repeatedly insisted on the name "Yan Bugui".
