Hearing this news, Gu Ning's heart was surprisingly calm. No anger, no grief, just feeling, oh, I see.

The predecessor of this body has no memory of its mother, as if her biological mother was no longer there when she was very young.

"What does a demon look like?" Gu Ning asked.

Gu Chang sighed, turned around and walked to a cabinet, rummaged inside for a long time, took out a wooden box, and said, "Look at this thing." ”

A box?

Gu Ning was a little puzzled, he couldn't have a demon locked up in this small box.

Curiously opened, there was a roll of parchment lying quietly inside, Gu Ning put it on the table and spread it out, it turned out to be a painting.

When he saw the specific content of the portrait, Gu Ning's heart was filled with a chill, as if he had seen the most disgusting and terrifying thing in the world.

On the parchment is a 'sun' covered with tentacles.

The sun was painted dark black by the ink, and twisted tentacles grew around it, as if they were squirming slightly, and then looking at the center of the sun monster, there was a vertical pupil, and an unknown viscous liquid slipped from the pupil, pulling the silk thread and falling down.

The sun floated in the air, one eye staring silently ahead.

Looking at this painting, Gu Ning felt an indescribable discomfort, his chest was blocked, and he bit the tip of his tongue hard to regain his clarity. I couldn't help but ask, "Father, what is this?" ”

"Demons." Panic appeared on Gu Chang's face, as if the scene from more than ten years ago was still in front of him, Gu Chang recalled: "I remember very clearly, your mother just gave birth to you that day, and I sat in front of the bed and accompanied her. ”

"That thing, without warning."

Gu Chang said: "The Sun Demon replaced the full moon that night, and in the abrupt hanging high in the sky, that eye looked at your mother from the window. I couldn't do anything, I just felt like my body was out of control, I stared into the demon's eyes, and my mind was full of visions, as if I saw myself standing in a river of corpses full of stinking flesh, disgusting green soft worms, crawling into my mouth. ”

"The feeling was close to drowning, suffocating, suffocating, choking to death with disgusting bugs and pieces of flesh." Gu Chang hugged his head in pain: "At that time, I collapsed and forgot about your mother to the clouds. When I came back to my senses, everything was gone. ”

"Gone?"

"Hmm. Whether it is the sun demon or your mother, they have disappeared without a trace, leaving only the father standing in the bedroom. ”

Gu Ning was dumbfounded when he heard this.

There are too many strange places in my father's story! Perhaps, whether it is the sun demon or those disgusting insects, it is some kind of illusion, and at that time, Gu Chang's cultivation was at most a three-image realm, and the illusion technique was not unusual.

Suddenly, Gu Ning remembered something: last night, he had a strange and absurd dream, in which he went to the teaching building, and he also felt like he was being targeted.

Could it be that the sun demon who made his mother disappear is the same as the owner of the sight in his dream?

Gu Ning's face changed.

This was seen by Gu Chang, but he thought he didn't believe it. Gu Chang smiled self-deprecatingly: "After I told everyone about it, they all thought I had hysteria." ”

"Such a big sun demon, hanging high in the air, blocking the full moon, the entire Gu Mansion and even Mao County, but only I can see it."

Gu Chang lost his soul: "Maybe, it's really me who is wrong." ”

"I think my father was right." Gu Ning said suddenly.

Gu Chang raised his head unexpectedly.

Gu Ning continued: "Demons are ever-changing, and their mana and abilities are beyond our imagination, so it's not surprising to do this. Moreover, it is true that the mother disappeared into thin air, leaving no trace, right? ”

"But it's also possible that it's artificial... What is seen is an illusion. Gu Chang hesitated.

"No, it's not man-made!"

Gu Ning categorically denied, "Since it is artificial, the other party's cultivation must be very strong, and if such a powerful person wants to take away his mother, he can use illusion as a trick?" Wouldn't it be easier to knock your father unconscious and take your mother away? ”

"Today's Gu family is not a first-class family in a small place like Mao County, and the other party doesn't need to be afraid at all!"

"Therefore, it is not man-made, it is more likely to be a demon!"

"At the same time, there is another question, if you are a demon, why are you still alive, father?"

Gu Ning twisted his eyebrows and inferred: "Demons don't have a good impression of humans, and most of the time when they meet humans, they will choose to kill, swallow them alive, or absorb essence and blood to enhance their own cultivation. If you guessed correctly, the same is recorded in the ancestral home? ”

Gu Chang nodded: "Yes, demons capture humans for food, eat meat, or take their essence." ”

Sure enough, the demonic behavior here is very similar to that of the Gu Xuan Continent. Gu Ning thought secretly.

He said: "In short, looking at this strange incident, it is the demon who took away the mother, and the probability is greater. And, it's a big demon! Such a terrifying illusion can only be performed by a big demon! ”

"But why is my mother favored by the big demon? If the mother was an ordinary human, she would have been sucked into the essence blood and died on the spot. ”

The more Gu Ning thought about it, the more confused he felt, and muttered to himself: "There is still one thing that doesn't make sense, the big demon is here, why don't you slaughter the Gu Mansion all over the house?" And let the father next to you survive? ”

"This..."Gu Chang was speechless.

Ichisuke Wufu was immersed in the grief of losing his wife, but he didn't think too much about it, if not, he wouldn't have been overthrown by the Great Elder to such a field.

Gu Ning knew that his father was not good at his mind, so his eyes woke up with blazing eyes: "I can't tell, my mother is still alive now." It's a small odds, but it's not impossible! The big demon didn't kill your father, but took away your mother, and it is likely that your mother was useful to the big demon. Or, our Gu family has a relationship with demons! ”

"Ancestor Gu Tiange was a famous demon slayer hundreds of years ago, Gu Tiange's process of killing demons and eliminating demons, it is not impossible to form a relationship with the big demon!"

"And I'm sure it's not a bad relationship." Gu Ning said in one breath.

"It's not bad..."

Gu Chang's eyes lit up, and he finally woke up: "That's right!" If our Gu family had a grudge against the demon, our father, as the direct bloodline of the Gu family, would have been killed by the big demon. The demon took away your mother for ulterior motives. ”

Gu Ning smiled: "That's it." So father, you don't have to be discouraged, you must take care of your body, and when I become a master of cultivation and save my mother, I will have another reunion dinner. ”

"Okay, okay." The wrinkles on Gu Chang's face stretched out, and the long-lost spirit resurfaced.

Seeing this, Gu Ning felt a lot more relaxed.

Everything went well for the Gu family on this trip, and he deceived the Great Elder, and his father cheered up again, just waiting for him to succeed in cultivation and take the family back.

Gu Ning remembered what happened in Jin Xianglou before, so he said, "Father, do you know Miss Xu from Xu Ji Pharmacy?" ”

This question is naturally not idle chatter, Gu Ning thought about it, it takes a lot of pills to improve his strength, and he also needs good martial arts and combat skills, in layman's terms, it is silver.

The remaining more than 200 taels on his body are not enough at all, Xu Ji is a medicine expert, and if he becomes their son-in-law, he will naturally have no worries about money.

"Ning'er, you know?" Gu Chang said: "When I heard Gu Zhong talk about this, the first person who came to mind was you. As long as you enter the Xu family, gain a firm foothold over there, and look at the face of the Xu family, Gu Zhong will not dare to easily take the position of head of the family from me. ”
