Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Truth

The sky was getting dark, the moon was slanting in the west, and at dawn, a chill hit.

Ah Nian and I were in the same house, and I stayed up all night, and I was a little sleepy. Ruyuan had already fallen asleep on the table.

It's been two hours since the hooked snake was let go by Ah Nian, and the diviner should have come.

Suddenly, Ruyuan sat up, quickly adjusted her breathing, and said, "It's here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a knock at the door. Immediately, before he could respond, the door was opened.

Diviner Zisang stood in the middle, on the right was the masked woman, still holding her chest at the moment, unable to stand up straight, and on the left, Ruyu, who was still unable to move.

"Miss Yinluo, don't you want to explain it to me? I have always treated you politely when you came to Qingqiu, and I also promised to help you detoxify, why do you want to create my clan's holy land and steal the jade hairpin?" After speaking, he glanced fiercely at Ruyu beside him.

"You are the diviner of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, so naturally you have to consider the safety of the whole clan, but your first patriarch also promised to hand over the jade hairpin to me, is it true that the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan has always been so rebellious and will take revenge? This jade hairpin is not your Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's thing, I just took back my own things. ”

"Miss Yinluo, I thought I had explained it to you yesterday. Lost the jade hairpin, the Qingqiu fantasy realm will no longer exist, at that time, my nine-tailed fox clan will have nowhere to go, I was forced to helplessly, only temporarily rebuilt this illusion with the power of the jade hairpin, why do you want to trap my clan back into danger?"

"At that time, I will be unconscious, and I will almost lose my life, but I really haven't heard you say half a word about borrowing. Or maybe the diviner thought that I wouldn't survive, so he just took this treasure out of the Lingzhi Forbidden Domain, and couldn't bear to see it destroyed as well?"

The diviner's expression was complicated, but he seemed speechless.

"Actually, I don't want to destroy your illusion, and I don't want to possess this so-called 'divine object' that has been contaminated with countless grievances, I just want to borrow a little bit of the power of the jasper hairpin to relieve the poison in myself, will this really cause your clan to fall into danger?"

"Uncle Zisang, I gave this poison to me, but Yinluo has protected me again and again, so you can help me repay Yinluo's favor. All you have to do is tell me how to detoxify, and I'll do it for her. ”

"Yuan'er, you ......" The diviner was simply gritted his teeth by Ruyuan's words.

"What the diviner is worried about is nothing more than the fear that Miss Yinluo will be discovered by the Protoss, I also said before that my Demon Clan will take good care of her, and will never let her fall into the hands of the Protoss and ruin her life. What's more, compared to you, our Demon Domain is even more afraid that her blood will be obtained by the Protoss, so let's leave such a task to us. With the power of my demon race, the Protoss naturally doesn't want to succeed easily. Ah Nian also said with a pity.

"Or is there some other unknown plan for the soothsayer?"

Seeing that the soothsayer was still hesitant, I took out a wooden box from behind me, and when the soothsayer saw it, his face changed. But even so, he still pretended to be calm and stood outside the door, but his eyes were fixed on the box.

I slowly raised my hand, ready to open the box.

"Stop!"

I smiled faintly and didn't stop there. But in the blink of an eye, my hand was firmly grasped, and the soothsayer was already standing next to me.

But Ruyuan unexpectedly snatched the box and opened it.

At the moment of opening, a strange light flashed in the box, and immediately, countless colorful and crystal clear beads appeared, and Ruyuan's eyes were already wide and stunned.

"It's ...... The true yuan of the nine-tailed fox demon!" As soon as the fate of the hand slipped, the box fell instantly, and the diviner hurriedly withdrew his hand, and then caught the box that was about to land, and carefully held it in his hand, carefully studying it.

"Uncle Zisang...... These are really ...... Is the true essence of our people?"

Zisang was silent, but his expression had already made a positive answer.

"But...... How could there be a black mist in that true element? That's ...... Demonic energy?"

"Ru Yuan, do you still remember what you told me about the forbidden technique of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's cultivation with demonic energy? Your grandfather also ended up like that because of his cultivation of demonic energy. ”

"Remember ......"

"However, have you ever thought about it, since this is the forbidden technique of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, how can you and Ruyu know?"

"Naturally, it's ......" Ruyuan was originally very sure, but suddenly hesitated, "Yes...... ...... from Mother Memories ......"

"Then do the rest of you fox clan also know about this forbidden technique?"

"It seems...... No one ever mentioned it. Not only this, but the secret and forbidden techniques of the fox clan, according to the rules, cannot be easily known to the clansmen. ”

"That's right, then why would your mother know?"

Ruyuan seemed to be thinking carefully, and I glanced at Ruyu and saw that she was also a little confused.

"Before, I secretly stole the secret art of dividing fate from the place where the diviner lived, but my mother ...... It doesn't seem to be ...... Even though she had used mind-reading techniques to obtain information about the demon catcher's stronghold, she didn't have the memory of using the Karma Splitting Technique...... "Ruyuan is still trying to remember.

Suddenly, her eyes widened and she said, "Like, someone once told her!"

"Who is it?" I asked, looking at her firmly.

"Yes......" Ruyuan shook her head, as if this memory was incomplete.

"It's him. Ruyu opened her mouth coldly, looking directly at a person.

It was the diviner Zisan.

Ruyuan was even more surprised.

"Uncle Zisang, why did you tell your mother that the forbidden technique was forbidden?"

"Then do you know the real reason for the fall of Qingqiu?"

"Of course I know! It was the descendants of Dayu who pretended to surrender with a jade hairpin, and as a result, they later induced the patriarch to cultivate demonic energy...... "said, Ruyuan also seemed to find something wrong," but...... Since it is our clan's forbidden technique, how can the descendants of Dayu know?"

"So, the one who really induces the patriarch to practice demonic qi is not the descendants of Dayu, right? It's a pity that you clansmen who died innocently in vain or survived by luck don't know how the patriarch suddenly became a bloodthirsty maniac, right? Even your grandfather, everyone is afraid that they are just thinking that he is trying to suppress the demonic qi, and after being forcibly eroded by the demonic qi, he loses his nature, but he doesn't know that it is he who is cultivating the demonic qi. It is said that the nine-tailed fox clan can inherit the memory of their ancestors, but some memories cannot be inherited, for example, those who have this memory have no descendants at all. And the person who induced the first two patriarchs to cultivate demonic qi didn't know what it was for. ”

Ruyuan was silent, it seems that my guess was right.

"Now, let me tell you why. ”

At this moment, I really don't know how many secrets are contained in the diviner.

"That's right, the person who told them about the Demonic Qi Forbidden Technique was me. ”

"Uncle Zisang!?" Ruyuan barely wrote, expecting that the diviner would admit it so calmly.

"I know, this secret can't be kept for too long, but it happened to be discovered by Miss Yinluo first. ”

"Don't you feel guilty?"

"Guilty? Why do I have to feel guilty? Everything I do is for the sake of the whole Nine-Tailed Fox clan. You have also seen in the daytime that in the nature of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, they are content with the status quo and cannot see even the immediate danger at all. Ever since my maternal grandfather ordered those secret and forbidden arts to be sealed, for thousands of years, no one has dared to create a holy place where secret arts and forbidden arts are hidden. No matter how great the calamity is, as long as they can find a place to live, everyone will return to the state of being free from the world and carefree. Behind this seemingly harmony, it is constantly being calculated, used, slandered, and killed by foreigners. Whose fault is all this? Is it my Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's fault?

"I'm just trying to find a way to make the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan really strong, so strong that we don't have to hide in the corner, waiting for others to invade and slaughter, we should have relied on our own strength to create a territory that truly belongs to us, that is the pure land that is truly free of war and harmony and peace. ”

"So, are you going to induce them to cultivate demonic qi to increase their strength?"

"Not bad. Once, one of my uncles had already discovered this method, but unfortunately, because all the people who practiced demonic qi gradually lost their nature, my maternal grandfather forcibly banned this method of cultivation, and locked up all my uncles, and finally they lost their nature because of the practice of demonic energy, and killed each other in the place of detention, and no one survived. But then I found out that the reason why the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan will lose their nature when they practice demonic qi is precisely because there are too many subconscious minds hidden in their hearts, and most of these subconscious minds are dark, paranoid, and even evil. Then, as long as our will is strong enough, we will naturally be able to suppress the influence of demonic energy on us.

"The first two patriarchs were extremely determined people, and since they were patriarchs, they should take on the heavy responsibility of controlling the fate of a clan, even if they had to risk their lives, they must not flinch. ”

"But if you do this, you have brewed terrible consequences, and even then, is it worth it?"

"What is worth it? What is not worth it? Besides, I didn't want to be so hasty, but every time I had to let the patriarch practice this forbidden technique as a last resort, but unfortunately, although I tried to clear their minds of those distractions, I still failed...... Once, Candle Jade was the best candidate for trial, and I found that she could purify the filthy part of her mind on her own, but unfortunately, that damn Dayu's descendant actually harmed her to such a situation...... Later, our clan was trapped in the forbidden domain of Lingzhi, and the patriarch originally wanted to suppress the demonic energy, but found that the demonic energy was simply endless, so I took the risk to tell him the method of practicing demonic energy, and he was already trying his best to suppress it, but in the end it was the same ending. But if not, how can we save ourselves?

As he spoke, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter, his expression revealed that he was very unwilling, but he was infinitely tired and powerless about the fate of the whole clan.

"Then what is the matter with these true elements that have been infused with demonic energy?"

"With the painful experience of the two patriarchs, I naturally don't dare to take risks again, so I have found a way to truly and perfectly fuse the demonic qi with the true yuan of the nine-tailed fox clan, which can not only borrow the power of the demonic qi, but also not cause my clan to lose their nature. In desperation, I collected the true essence of those clansmen who were dying when they were seriously injured and experimented with them. Once I am truly successful, I will be able to guide my clansmen to cultivate demonic qi, and then, even if I am a god and demon, I will not dare to covet and invade my Nine-Tailed Fox Clan easily. At that time, why should I bother to create any Qingqiu Fantasy Realm? Everywhere is the Qingqiu of my clan, and we don't want to find any demon realm, at least, we can really have a place to live. ”

After listening to the words of the diviner, it is inevitable that there will be endless feelings in my heart, but I will feel a little embarrassed. For a while, he was immersed in the assumptions of the fortune teller about the fate of the whole clan, and he was noncommittal.

"It's really wishful thinking, among the Six Realms, only the Protoss is the protagonist who can really control the power of the Heavenly Book, and it is nonsense to want to compete with the Protoss. The silence was finally broken by Ruyu, who had been set aside before, and moreover, he still gave the diviner a blow to the head, as if he wanted to completely crush all his efforts.

The diviner looked at her vigorously, even though there was something very complicated in his eyes, but he didn't reprimand her again.

"Therefore, I also ask Miss Yinluo to return the jade hairpin, and when I really find a way to safely cultivate the demonic qi, I will naturally detoxify you as soon as possible. Don't worry, I created this poison, and I will naturally try my best to save your life, and I will try my best not to let this poison hurt the fetus in my womb. ”

"Yinluo, you have to figure it out! Even if Zisang can really succeed in the experiment, even if you have time to wait, the bead sealed in my body has no time to waste!"

Just when I couldn't make a decision, Ruyu reminded me of the situation I was facing now.
