Chapter XXXVIII
Although Meng Yunzhong repeatedly insisted on going to Fu Yuanwaifu with me, but with my intuition, I always felt that Guichen asked me to go to him for something good, so I still insisted on going alone, although Meng Yunzhong was reluctant, but also realized that I should have some scruples, so I had to stay in Mengjun Villa by myself.
Along the way, the villagers in the town really recognized me as a monster and avoided me. I laughed to myself, can't different races coexist if they are the same life? People are also good and evil, so why do mortals insist on giving demons a bad name? Just because demons have slightly more power than them, they can't let go of their fears? Come to think of it, most mortals are indeed afraid of death.
"Ahh
There was another commotion, and a woman who ran out of nowhere accidentally bumped into me as she walked forward with her head down, but her reaction was indeed exaggerated. However, after her shout, the passers-by who had just avoided me and hid on the side of the street suddenly panicked, and there was a farce of people turning on their backs, and many people had no reason to flee for their lives at all, let alone direction, but just ran around the street indiscriminately, as if I was not walking on the street, but walking while bloody massacre, this delusional terrible scene, as if many people lost their minds.
"Run! The monster is going to kill!"
There was a shout, and I simply stopped and stood quietly in the chaos.
But at this moment, a little girl was accidentally bumped into and fell in front of me, and immediately cried in fright.
I let go of the taunt, bent down, and helped her up. The little girl was still teary-eyed and confused, but from her eyes, except for the inexplicable fear, I saw only innocence.
"Little girl, are you afraid of me too?"
I asked her with a smile, which made her a little stunned, but she just kept sobbing and looking at me.
"My mother said that there are monsters in the town that eat the hearts of children. ”
"Then if my sister is willing to protect you from being captured by youkai, are you still afraid of your sister?" I wiped the tears from her face, looking at the overwhelmed fear on this young face.
"That sister must be a good person, Ying'er is not afraid. ”
I smiled faintly and said, "Your name is Ying'er?"
The little girl nodded, and did not cry anymore, and was much less frightened.
But at this time, in the chaos of the crowd, a murderous aura suddenly poured out, and I don't know why, this force seems familiar.
I frowned, turned around, and turned the little girl around, and in my other hand, a beam of white light, the white silk on the cuff burst out, and circled around, and suddenly a white halo wrapped me and the little girl standing in the shelter of my body. I could only hear a "bang", and the power surging from the crowd smashed together with the white halo, and at this moment, I twitched my hand, making Bai Aya turn into an attack, and instantly bypassed the crowd and thrust forward, I turned my head, and my eyes only looked in one direction.
Time seemed to stop at this moment, after the crowd dispersed, a clearing was revealed in the middle of the street, and at the other end of the street, there was a person standing impressively, holding a long knife in his hand, but he had been tightly entangled by my white silk, and had to stop in mid-air, temporarily unable to move.
I looked straight at this man and suddenly smiled, it was him.
I gently pulled the little girl out from behind, bent down, and looked at her with a smile, but at the moment, she couldn't stop crying.
"Don't be afraid, my sister will take you to your mother in a while. ”
She wiped her tears, still looking terrified.
I glanced at the man and withdrew the white silk, and when the man saw this, he also put the long knife to his side for the time being, and stared at me from a distance.
"Ying'er is not afraid, my sister will take me to find my mother's ...... Woohoo......"
"Ying'er!"
There was a shout on the side of the street, and a woman came out of the alley, but she no longer dared to come forward, but stood not far from me, looking at the little girl beside me.
"Mother!"
When the little girl saw the woman, tears welled up in her eyes and she cried out.
"Ying'er!"
The woman's eyes were red, but she could only look at her daughter in horror, and then at me in fear.
"She's your mother?"
"Hmmm......"
"Go quickly, and go home with your mother. ”
I let go of her gently, and the little girl ran towards her mother, and the mother and daughter hugged each other for a moment, but the woman immediately returned to her defensive state, only looked at me timidly, and ran into the alley again with her daughter. That's when I turned my head back to look at the person across the street.
"Don't hurt anyone!"
Although his words were fierce, the long knife in his hand was not activated. And this person is the demon catcher who is dealing with the fox demon in Lijiang.
Coarse linen clothes, full of vicissitudes.
"It wasn't me who almost hurt someone just now. ”
"Don't talk nonsense!
His anger suddenly rose, but he wasn't full of murderous aura when he stabbed it, and since he hesitated, there was no need for me to take it too seriously.
After several rounds, his knife was inadvertently dodged by me, he seemed to just want to force me away, so the moves did not carry spiritual power, this came and went, but it was always comparable, and he seemed to gradually lose patience.
"The monster is really doing evil again!"
While I was entangled with the demon catcher, there was a burst of spiritual power in the direction of Fu Yuan's outer mansion, but this spiritual power did not only come towards me, but directly inserted it between me and the demon catcher. I smiled slightly, took the call, and stepped back, and the demon catcher reacted in the same way. So, I confronted him a few feet away, and it seemed that I was waiting for the person who cast this spiritual power to come.
"Hmph, you monster, told you to come to me in half an hour, but you are here to cause an unprovoked fight!
As he spoke, Guichen had already appeared between me and the demon catcher, only tilting his head to the side, raising his chin high, still pretending to be disdainful.
"Maple Immortal!"
When the demon catcher on the opposite side saw him, he seemed to be taken aback, and immediately put away his long knife and took a few steps back respectfully.
"Jishu, why are you here?"
Guichen asked coldly.
"I ......"
The demon catcher is hesitant, and it seems that he also has some friendship with Guichen.
"Hmph, but for that fox demon?" Guichen didn't look at him at all, and his tone was still very cold.
"I ......"
The demon catcher named Jishu still couldn't answer, but I was taken aback. Although the fox demon had been around Lijiang with him, he didn't have to come to Suining Town for her, not to mention how he was a mortal and came here across thousands of miles in such a short time?
"That's it, let's go with me to the Yuanwai Mansion and talk about it, don't disturb the people here. ”
I glanced at Jishu, and then I had to go to the Yuanwaifu with Guichen.
Although there was a commotion in the streets, it was as calm as ever. In the hall, Fu Yuanwai sat on the main seat, and to his left was a rich and graceful woman, dressed very elegantly, with a kind face, thinking that it should be Fu Yuanwai's wife.
Fu Huan'en sat on the side of the staff on the right side, and Rou Wing stood behind him, and when he saw us coming in, he first glanced at Guichen a little timidly, but immediately cast a hateful gaze at me.
When Fu Yuanwai saw Guichen, he immediately stood up, and won with a smile on his face, which seemed to be more polite and grand than when Bo Yi came, after all, this Fu Yuanwai lady, I have seen it for the first time.
"Immortals, please take a seat!"
"There is no need to be polite outside, I have something to say to Ling Gongzi and these people, and I will do it. ”
Fu Yuanwai's eyes rolled slightly, and he immediately understood what he meant.
"Okay, well, the immortals and a few people are invited to take care of themselves, and the old man will go and order someone to prepare a banquet, so as to entertain everyone. ”
"Dad, there are children here to greet them, and they will not neglect the guests. Fu Huanen also stood up.
"Okay, the old man will go out first, and he will send someone to invite you later. ”
Fu Yuanwai has always been this general hospitality, and after speaking, he greeted everyone, and then took his wife out of the hall.
"You may be seated. ”
Fu Huanen saw that we all sat down, and only then did he sit down.
"You, tell her out. ”
After returning to the dust and taking a seat, he said angrily to Huan'en, the "she" in his mouth should refer to the soft wings on Fu Huan'en's side.
Rou Wing was a little angry, but she didn't dare to fight back without permission, Fu Huanen turned her head and glanced at her slightly, and she walked out very reluctantly.
"Jishu, you watch at the door, don't let anyone else come close. ”
Guichen saw Rou Wing go out of the hall door, snorted coldly, and commanded Jishu. It seems that this skill is indeed very respectful to him.
"Okay, I'll go. With that, Jishu also left the hall, retreated to a foot away, and stood under a banyan tree.
After the dust was arranged, he returned his attention to Fu Huanen, and he still turned a blind eye to me.
"You really don't know what I said before?" Guichen asked Fu Huanen expressionlessly, but there was a bit of reproach in his tone.
"I ......"
"Hmph!" Gui Chen, turning to me, continued, "Monster, where is the forest you mentioned to me?"
As soon as I heard this, I already knew what Guichen meant by calling me, and it seemed that he was indeed coming for the monster in the southeastern suburbs.
"Miss Yinluo......" Fu Huanen seemed to be a little moved, he had never interrupted others like this, but halfway through what he said, Guichen had already glared at him, and he could only stop talking.
"What do you mean by the immortals, do you want me to take you to take a look?"
"It's inconvenient for me to go over like this, you just tell me where you picked up the jade pendant and what the situation is there. ”
As soon as Guichen asked, Fu Huanen's face changed slightly, and he didn't seem to know about it.
"It's not a good place, it's chaotic and filthy, there's no grass, and there's a thick miasma. ”
"Hmph! What a miasma! It's clearly demonic energy!" Guichen became more and more angry. I deliberately changed the demonic qi to miasma, that is, I wanted to see his reaction.
"Miss Yinluo, what you said is true?" Fu Huanen stood up a little excitedly, frowning slightly.
"Could it be that the eldest young master also knows that place?"
Fu Huanen bowed his head and was silent, but he seemed to have many thoughts twisted in his mind.
"I said a long time ago, don't tolerate the demons, you don't listen! Now, if that monster really recovers, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do!" Guichen was very angry, but although he was angry, he still saw that he was thinking hard, and he was thinking about a solution.
Fu Huanen was silent for a moment, and then said to me, "Miss Yinluo, there is something that the girl needs help with. ”
"You want to borrow the Sword of Harmony again?"
"Hmph!" Gui Chen turned his head, perhaps for him, asking for help from a demon again and again really lowered his status.
"Since the girl understands everything, the girl should also know that only the sword of Cangrong may be able to suppress the demon. ”
"It's not hard, it's just ...... If this matter is settled, what will you do with your wife?"
Fu Huanen sighed, his eyes were confused: "It's all up to heaven's will......"
"If you hadn't insisted on keeping this demon in the first place, you wouldn't be like this today. Guichen said indignantly.
"I naturally have my own troubles......"
Mortals are ruined by the word "love", indiscriminate, infatuated, infatuated, trapped by love, and finally die for love, which is unreasonable!"
Fu Huanen was speechless, just stood in place, frowning. But my heart also moved, as if some sadness rose from the bottom of my heart.
"Monster, if you do the same evil, I will not spare you!" Guichen turned his head and said to me fiercely.
I smiled slightly, and for the first time, I felt that demons did seem to be different from other creatures, and demons were often turned into aliens by people, and there was always some reason. However, what demon is born evil and vicious? If it were not for being discriminated against, persecuted, and squeezed by other races, how could the demon not live in its own rules and systems? Just like the forest of gloom, most of the demons who go out from the forest to do evil have a miserable experience, and hatred is planted deeply in their hearts, even if they are immortals, can they definitely see it?
"Come in!"
Guichen calmed down a little, as long as he sat upright, he still looked refined and elegant, but as soon as he spoke, he was still domineering.
Listening to his call, Jishu slowly walked into the main hall from under the banyan tree, but every step seemed to be a little hesitant.
"The monster will go back for the time being, and I will make a decision after I think about it carefully. ”
It seems that he deliberately supported me, and he was still curious about this skill, especially since Guichen mentioned the fox demon on the street just now, so I wanted to find out more and more, but Guichen didn't seem to want to let me know. But it doesn't matter, since the two sides of the secret met by chance in this way, it is estimated that the secret will not be kept for long. And there is more than one clue, maybe you can get some information from the fox demon. What's more, You Ruojun has recovered, so the bet I made with her can also continue.
I said goodbye to a few people in the hall and returned to Mengjun Villa.
