38 | Phantom territory and beyond

Mu Yu took the lead and walked to the demon demon's side, there was a light pink peach petal floating in his palm, the demon took the peach petal, but it melted like a snowflake, and at the same time Mu Yu's voice sounded in the demon demon's mind: "Actually, I am also a demon." ”

The demon looked at Mu Yu in surprise, and Mu Yu made a shushing gesture at her, and the demon nodded solemnly.

Pu Jia then walked to the demon's side, took the demon's hand, and his voice sounded in the demon's mind, just like when the two first met.

"I've tried feathering, too, but I've failed."

The demon silently asked in his heart, "The day we met, was the wound on your body left by the feathering?" ”

"Hmm." Pu Jia let go of the demon's hand and stepped aside.

Shangguan Miao twisted her hand, and a faint wisp of black smoke rose from her fingertips, and as soon as she flicked her fingers, the black mist floated in front of the demon and drilled into the demon's nostrils.

"I'm sorry for the cold thing, I lied to you."

The demon was stunned for a moment, and before she could react to the meaning of Shangguan Miao's words, she felt dizzy for a while, she looked at Pu Jia and Mu Yu, and saw that the facial features of the two people were covered by black mist, and they froze motionlessly in place.

The demon wanted to call their names, but every word seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, choked in his throat, but he couldn't say a word.

After that, the demon went dark in front of his eyes and lost all consciousness.

When the demon woke up again, she was lying on the bed of Shen Si's house, and the demon sat up, but her mind was still groggy.

She searched through the fragmentary memories in her mind, and finally stopped at the sentence that Shangguan Miao said: "I'm sorry, I lied to you about Hanmu." ”

Just then, the door was pushed open.

Pujia walked in and saw the demon wake up, he stepped forward and touched her head.

"Does your head still hurt?" Pu Jia asked with concern.

The demon nodded: "One more point." ”

"By the way, what about Miss Shangguan?" The demon asked, "And what did she mean by the last thing she said that she deceived us?" ”

Pu Jia sighed lightly and said, "Back then, Qin Hanmu set up a blood spell and turned into a blood spirit. Miss Shangguan died and died......"

"Wait a minute, isn't she herself dead, but she hasn't disappeared?" The demon wondered.

"This thing, that's what she said, the one that lied to us." Pu Jia continued, "The Ghost Spirit Son reshaped her body and used her to manipulate the blood spirit incarnated by General Qin. ”

"On that day, the Ghost Lingzi knew that he was not the opponent of Wuwu, so he wanted to use Shangguan Miao to gain our trust, so that their plan was discovered by Mu Yu at the last moment."

At this time, Mu Yu also walked in from outside the house, and said with a smug face: "Ghost Lingzi took advantage of the fact that we were not here, and laid an illusion in the house in advance, he knew that he was not our opponent, so he used Shangguan Miao to lead us here, and the moment we stepped into this room, the illusion was naturally triggered." ”

"Fortunately, the master is shrewd and has discovered the shadow of this illusion." Mu Yu pretended to be deep.

"What is it?" The demon asked.

Mu Yu pointed at the demon and said, "Of course it's you." ”

Mu Yu's words made the demon confused, and she really couldn't understand why she became the shadow of Mu Yu's mouth. Mu Yu saw the doubts in the demon's heart, so he asked, "Do you remember that I asked everyone to tell a secret thing hidden in the bottom of their hearts?" ”

The demon nodded.

"Then do you remember what Shangguan Miao said to you?" Mu Yu continued.

The demon nodded again: "She said that there was one thing that deceived us. ”

Mu Yu suddenly laughed and said triumphantly: "Actually, the so-called Jingying was made up by me, and the reason why I did this was to show Shangguan's thoughts. ”

"She was worried that if she told a lie, she would become a shadow of my mouth, so she could only tell the truth. But once she tells the truth, she has to take you out of the illusion before you open your mouth. So, I took Pu Jia with me and took this opportunity to leave the illusion with her. ”

"But why did she say it?" The demon was puzzled.

"Because Shangguan Miao knows that many of the memories of her previous life were re-given to her by the Ghost Lingzi when he reshaped her body." "So she can't be sure what is true and what is false. And the only thing that can be sure to be true is to lie to us. ”

"Where is the Shangguan girl at the moment?" The demon asked.

"I formed a formation with Mu Yubu and imprisoned her in the next room." Pu Jia Road.

"I want to see her." As he spoke, the demon stood up.

The two followed the demon to the next room, and Shangguan Miao curled up in the corner without saying a word, his body already showing a translucent state.

Apparently, her flesh had begun to crumble.

"You obviously know that the ghost spirit son has done a lot of evil, why do you still want to help him?" The demon was puzzled.

Shangguan Miao laughed a little desolately, and said, "If it weren't for him to reshape my body, I would have been gone, how could I be by Han Mu's side?" ”

"So you watched General Qin become a puppet of the Ghost Lingzi and commit heinous crimes for him?" The demon asked rhetorically.

Shangguan Miao sneered and said, "That's why they deserve to die." ”

"But even if the villagers who didn't return to the village at that time killed you by mistake, why should their descendants bear the responsibility for the mistakes made by that generation?" Demon Dao.

"Because of some mistakes, I can choose not to forgive." Shangguan said misty.

The demon sighed lightly: "Miss Shangguan, let go of your hatred." More killing will not only not help, but will breed more hatred. ”

"Sooner or later, these hatreds will devour all the rationality between you and General Qin, making you a walking dead who don't know each other." The demon whispered, "Could this be the ending you want?" ”

The demon's words obviously touched the deep worries in Shangguan Miao's heart, and she was silent, burying her head in her knees.

"Miss Shangguan, only you can find Ghost Lingzi now, so I want to ask you to take us to find him, only by defeating Ghost Lingzi can you and General Qin truly regain their freedom." The demon puffed up.

Finally, Shangguan Miao slowly raised her head, she looked at the demon, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a heart-warming arc.

"Demon girl, how do you know that the world you see in your eyes at this moment is real?" Shangguan Miao asked suddenly.

The demon froze in place, and she turned back to look for Pujia and Muyu, only to find that the walls of the house had disappeared, and the village had disappeared, and she was in the middle of a dark forest.

Pu Jia and Mu Yu were long gone, and she looked back in a panic, and even Shangguan Miao was nowhere to be seen.
