Chapter Thirty-Six: Night Talk

Although the night breeze in the maple forest is a little strong, it is exceptionally fresh, and even at night, the fiery red maple leaves almost turn the sky red. I saw that it was still early, so I agreed with Meng Yunzhong to rest in this maple forest for a night before returning, such a scenery is indeed not seen everywhere.

The white-clothed immortal was originally called Guichen, but since he saw this jade pendant, his attitude suddenly changed a lot, although he still had prejudices against me, but he didn't speak ill of us anymore.

"Yinluo, how did you get the jade pendant of the eldest young master?"

Meng Yunzhong and I sat in the middle of the maple forest, quietly leaning on his shoulder, admiring the night sky over the maple forest. But he suddenly asked, thinking that this question had been lingering in his mind for a long time.

"Yun Zhong, do you believe me?"

I looked up at him, and he hesitated for a moment, but nodded.

"I did pick it up in a forest on the outskirts of Suining Town, and I didn't know its origin at first, but when I heard what the eldest young master said that day, I guessed that this might be a token given to him by the immortals. Originally, I didn't want to take it out, but I didn't want this immortal to find out on his own. ”

Meng Yunzhong pondered for a moment, then continued:

"Then, what kind of rejuvenating grass demon did you mention to that immortal just now, and what is it? Could it be that the concubine room of the eldest young master is ......?"

"Yes, Yun Niang is also a demon, but the Soul Restoration Grass is a fairy grass that can cure all kinds of diseases, she has a pure nature, and naturally she will not do evil, if it weren't for this, Sister You's illness, how could ordinary people cure it?"

I don't want Meng Yunzhong to smile lightly: "I didn't expect that there are only a few people, but they all have extraordinary fates, and I really understand the insignificance of mortals now." ”

For some reason, when he said this, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind: Perhaps, there will be an unusual fate in him, but immediately, I laughed at myself secretly. Although he seems to be very human, what does this mean? He is just an ordinary person, but he happens to be caught in the middle of this complicated relationship. And I, why not? If it weren't for the sudden death of my mother many years ago, I might have been a little demon living in a lush forest. If he could, I'd rather he would always be a mere mortal and not know anything. I looked at his side face and deliberately diverted the subject.

"Yun Zhong, you say, compared to Xiaozhu, what is the scenery here?"

"The maple forest here is full of fire, the night sky is clear, it is really a rare and beautiful scene, but I still prefer the freshness and elegance of the small building, not so public, such a beautiful scenery, only suitable for a glance of amazement and appreciation, but not suitable for staying. ”

"Well, actually, that's what I thought too, so we're going to hurry up and get to the end of it and go back to Kozuki. ”

"Ignorance!"

I looked up and looked out, only to see Guichen standing on the top of a maple tree, looking down on us with disdain.

"It's delusional that a monster wants to combine with mortals!"

Hearing his words, I felt a lot of anger in my heart for no reason.

"Besides, if you don't live without this divine sword, how long will you live?"

I went from anger to astonishment, could he see the evil poison in me?

"The demon is a kind of foreign body born of the source aura of the mortal world, there is no perfect reincarnation of mortals, old age, sickness and death, reproduction and continuation, and there is no powerful spiritual power compared to gods and demons, how can you be qualified to enjoy the seven emotions and six desires of mortals, it is just wishful thinking!"

What does it mean that "there is no perfect cycle of mortal life, old age, sickness and death, reproduction and continuation......"?

"What did you say?"

"Hmph, I said, the demon is extremely humble, there is no reincarnation of life, what is the meaning of survival?"

I got up from the ground, jumped up, and stood in the tree opposite him. Meng Yunzhong stood under the tree, at a loss.

"Return to the dust, you make it clear, what is a life without reincarnation?"

"Hmph, do you know that in addition to mortals, gods and demons also have the ability to reproduce? However, because the life span of the gods is too long, the ancient emperor forcibly sealed this ability to maintain the constancy of the number of gods, and the seal will not be broken unless the gods are gone. Only a thousand years ago, a god forcibly broke this seal and gave birth to a daughter with a mortal woman. The demons also have the ability to conceive, but the demons have been gestational for a long time, and in the end they can only be scattered all over the world in the form of demon spirits, and only by finding those creatures who want to become demons as hosts can they be revived. Needless to say, mortals don't have to say. Only demons, fatherless and motherless, but the place where the demon is full of power forcibly changes the original form of all things to breed and form, except for the nine-tailed fox family, there is no ability to reproduce, and the spiritual power is fragile, most of them die at a young age, even if they are lucky to survive, the life span is much less than that of gods and demons. Many demons are still vainly trying to increase their spiritual power with the method of yin and evil, aren't they going against the sky?"

"You say, demons have no father and no mother?"

"What is the right of a lowly demon to enjoy the joy of being a child?"

"Can the demon and the other races reproduce?"

"Delusional!"

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Gui Chen's words also hooked out the last sentence that Cang Li said to me before. I turned my head to look at Meng Yunzhong, and suddenly, I realized that I also had too many questions that had not been solved, and after the fate between me and Meng Yunzhong was over, I was afraid that I would have to run around for the secrets on my body again.

"However, it seems that your monster has other spiritual powers hidden on it, which is strange. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I can't see it very clearly, in addition to the demonic energy, there are other looming spiritual power fluctuations on your body...... Slow down...... This is...... How is this possible...... How is it possible?" Gui Chen's expression turned to surprise, which was completely different from the cold expression just now, but his words stopped there. Is it because of the fountain of the Holy Spirit in me?

"You're doing it yourself!"

After speaking, Guichen jumped down and disappeared into the layers of maple forests in a flash, leaving me with only a doubt. I also fell to the ground and walked to Meng Yunzhong's side.

"Yinluo, he didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No, he just told me some stories about gods and demons. I smiled and said lightly, but I concluded that Meng Yunzhong could still see my heart, but he couldn't ask.

And at this moment, the words of Gui Chen's words kept reappearing in my heart: It is really wishful thinking that monsters want to combine with mortals! Although I have also made an oath with Meng Yunzhong, and I have also made up my mind not to care about those arbitrary duties and obstacles, but for some reason, I can't let go of it all the time in my heart, and it is really difficult to really be careless.

This night, because Guichen's words are no longer all beautiful, I really want to talk to Meng Yunzhong, but I really don't know how to express what I think, I just want to wait for all this to pass, maybe there will be no other criticism.

Guichen used illusion to create another bamboo house next to the bamboo house where he lived for me and Meng Yunzhong to rest.

After Meng Yunzhong fell asleep, I walked to the forest alone.

"Monster, in the middle of the night, do you still want to do evil in my maple forest?"

As soon as I walked to the fence of the bamboo house, I saw Guichen dressed in white standing on the canopy of a maple tree not far from me. When he saw me look up, he floated down, but still stopped at a distance from me. He really has a deep understanding of demon prejudices.

"I still don't understand what you said today, so I want to ask you about it. ”

"Hmph, what else do you know?"

"To tell you the truth, you mentioned earlier that demons have no father or mother, but I was raised by my mother, why is that?"

"Monsters don't want to talk nonsense! How can demons be called mothers? Even if there are, it is just a pretext for many evil spirits to collude with each other to do evil. ”

"Isn't there no exception?"

"Naturally, no. Unless, you're not a demon at all!"

"It's not a demon ......" pondered for a moment, and then another question came to my mind, "Then you said that there are other spiritual powers hidden behind the demon qi in my body, what is it?"

"Don't you know?"

"I have indeed lived in the Demon Domain for several years, and the blood in my body is the Holy Spirit Spring Water of the Demon Domain, is this what you are talking about?"

"Holy Spirit Spring Water, what is the relationship between the Demon Domain Cangli and you, and why does the Cangrong Sword protect you?"

"I don't think you know him, it's he who took me captive to the Demon Realm and exchanged my blood for me. ”

"Hmph! A demon deserves to be like this. ”

"You haven't answered me yet. ”

"It's useless to say more, the spiritual power hidden in your body is far from that, but I can't see it clearly at this time. ”

"It turns out that the immortals also don't know about it?"

"Hmph! Everything in this world, even the gods may not fully understand, how can I say anything?"

"Forget it, since you don't know, I don't ask. However, I still have a question. I looked at his displeased look after being ridiculed by me, but suddenly felt a little interesting, "What is the origin of the jade pendant you retrieved from your body today?

"How can such a heavenly machine be discovered by you, a monster?"

Sure enough, as soon as the jade pendant or its owner was mentioned, Guichen immediately became emotional. With a strange smile, I continued:

"Naturally, I can't find out, but I want to tell the immortals that I found this jade pendant in a monster's habitat, so you are not afraid that it will have any adverse effects on the owner of the jade pendant?"

"Really?" Guichen had already turned his head arrogantly, but when he heard me say this, he not only turned his head, but also seemed to be a little more surprised.

"Moreover, since you have a good relationship with the owner of the jade pendant, you should know that his wife is not a good person. If this monster and his wife collude with each other and secretly display their positions, will you sit idly by?"

"I don't care about that snake demon, and the owner of the jade pendant is enough to deal with it. It's just that...... Is there really a monster surging around?" he seemed to know a lot about dealing with reciprocation.

"Well, believe it or not, you can tell for yourself. I smiled coldly, "Since I'm done asking, I won't bother." Anyway, you will go to Suining with us tomorrow, so it's better to confirm for yourself. By the way, I wonder if immortals can use space spells?"

"Why do you ask?"

"The time to save people is urgent, if the immortals can't, I have to ask you to deign to go back with us. However, it is up to the nine-tailed fox demon to cast the spell. ”

"Hmph! This immortal has always only practiced the art of meditation, and this immortal has never been interested in such demonic evil arts. ”

"Okay, then tomorrow afternoon, we will set off in Lijiang outside Yifeng Valley, let's go together. ”

I smiled lightly, snorted disdainfully, and disappeared into the maple forest, leaving only a patch of crimson. His face-saving character is really interesting.

The next day, Meng Yunzhong and I went to Lijiang Town first. It wasn't yet noon, which gave me some time to wander around with Meng Yunzhong. The folk customs here are harmonious, and there are mostly some buildings with foreign customs, which is indeed very different from Suining Town. Many exquisite exotic ornaments and costumes also have a unique flavor, coupled with the beautiful environment, it is really a blessed land of feng shui.

It's strange to say, after leaving Yifeng Valley, the sword of Cangrong naturally turned invisible, and there was no abnormality, could it be because of the enchantment set up by Guichen?

However, at this moment, there was a commotion not far away, and the crowd gradually gathered together, and I faintly smelled a commotion, so I walked over with Meng Yunzhong.

"You barbarians, you really don't have the slightest pity for me! Seeing that my clothes are so thin, you don't want to give me a dress to cover your shame, and you want to frame me so meanly. ”

"You woman is so unreasonable! You steal the clothes in my store while I'm not prepared, but you're still quibbling here!"

When she got closer, she saw the fox demon's bent body and that charming and innocent face, presumably she was making fun of these mortals again. There are a lot of discussions around her, not all for the theft of clothes, but her bold clothes are the focus of people.

"My brother's words are so ugly, what does he steal or not, the slave family is a daughter, and there is always a sense of shame, you slander people like this, you really have to be responsible for the slave family......"

The fox demon was good, and leaned directly towards the innocent shopkeeper, and this sudden embarrassing scene caused the surroundings to boil. The shopkeeper also lost his square inch for a while, and his hands and feet seemed to freeze, and he didn't know what to do.

"Who is the demon! dare to make trouble in public!"

Just when the fox demon was enjoying this farce without fear, someone in the crowd shouted. Suddenly, the crowd chattered much quieter, and they all looked in the direction from which the sound came.

I saw a man wearing Hanfu, with a face full of vicissitudes and a beard on his face, standing in the crowd and staring angrily at the fox demon. The fox demon squinted at this person, his face changed slightly, but he immediately smiled again.

"Who should I be? Even if you look like an old dragon clock, you dare to come and snatch the slave family? The heart of the slave family has already been handed over to this brother......

As he spoke, the fox demon leaned even more unscrupulously towards the bewildered shopkeeper, like a piece of sticky candy that couldn't be torn off.

However, I have already seen that the person who came is not good, and there seems to be a faint breath of clear air on his body, which is somewhat similar to You Ruojun's Xu Yu Spirit Bead, I smiled coldly, and he is a demon catcher.

"Cultivation is rampant!

The demon hunter ignored the fox demon's provocation, pushed aside the crowd, took out a dagger-like sharp weapon from his bosom and stabbed straight at the fox demon. At a second glance, the sharp blade of this dagger instantly extended, and in an instant, a sharp long knife was generated, although the style was not delicate enough, but the blade was faintly glowing, which showed its power.

The fox demon didn't dodge, still leaning on the shopkeeper half-smiling and half-coquettishly, but the young shopkeeper was even more frightened.

It was too late, and when the long knife slashed in front of the fox demon, the fox demon suddenly turned around, leaving only a phantom in front of the shopkeeper, and seeing that the blade was about to slash directly into the face of the shopkeeper who had opened his mouth wide. Seeing this, the person who came was also taken aback, and hurriedly reversed the blade, but the fox demon had already appeared behind him, and the people around saw the fox demon flickering and flickering, flickering and flickering, and probably understood the situation, and they all dispersed in panic.

"Yinluo, this ......"

"It's okay, we'll just watch. ”

Meng Yunzhong and I also dispersed with the crowd, only standing on the opposite corner and watching.

The man was not idle, and in an instant, he saw him flip his body, the knife momentum changed suddenly, and he slashed towards the fox demon again. This time, not only did the blade light be seen, but there was also a strong spiritual power on the blade, and the fox demon knew that it could not be taken lightly, so he stood on tiptoe and quickly retreated.

The light veil on her body has been brought up repeatedly, light and elegant, but it looks very good.

As she retreated, a long whip appeared like a snake with a slight stroke of the fingers of her left hand, and then quickly swam towards the man. The man didn't mean to dodge, but slashed with the whip with the power of the blade. With a muffled sound, a strong light, the fox demon suddenly stopped, and the long knife also stopped in mid-air, and the two confronted each other like this, as if looking for an opportunity to strike again.

"You...... What's in your arms?"

The man looked at the fox demon roughly, but suddenly showed a somewhat surprised expression, and his eyes stared straight at the fox demon's chest.

"Speaking of which, you still don't change your mind, if you really have intentions for the slave family, why are you so vicious?" the fox demon waved the long whip in his hand and said coquettishly.

"Tell me!"

"Look at you, so anxious, what else can you have in the arms of the slave family? Naturally, it is the heart that is pounding by you!"

"Wicked! The old man didn't joke with you!"

As he spoke, the man pinned the long knife behind him, paused his feet, pointed at the fox demon's chest, straightened his left hand, and leaned straight towards the fox demon.

Although the fox demon was also taken aback, but when the man's left hand was only an inch away from the fox demon, the fox demon also found a gap, and on the side of her body, the long whip was already between the person and her, the man was caught off guard, suddenly stopped, and held the long knife in his right hand and instinctively slashed towards the long whip. But the long whip was more than flexible, and before the long knife could touch it, it had already slid away, and the fox demon's figure gradually faded. The fox demon's last head was just opposite my eyes, and she glanced at me slightly, and I would care, and she had completely disappeared.

"You reckless man is so fierce, the slave family can't afford it, your infatuation, the slave family has no choice but to do it!"

The fox demon's voice became more and more illusory, leaving the man standing still, his brows furrowed, as if he had not yet come to his senses.

When I looked again, there was no one on the street.
