Chapter 92: The Smell of the First Generation
Nightboat carefully examined the scene in front of him.
The hut was narrow enough to accommodate only two or three people, and there was no light in it, except for a candlestick in the center with a faint glow of fire, and shadows swaying on the walls, which looked a little eerie.
However, the furnishings in this room are very warm.
It's a snake-like demon, it's a snake cave.
Night Boat was in his heart, and an old voice sounded from the darkness.
"Luwu is back, what good things did you bring with you today?"
"Grandma, come and see, I've found one of my kind outside!" said Luwu excitedly, and then an old woman came out of the darkness.
The old woman was very old, with her back bent, and the wrinkles on her face looked as hideous as scars, and just by looking at it, you could see that she had lived a long life.
The old woman put her eyes on Yezhou's body, Yezhou nodded politely, and then several people sat down together, and the old woman's gaze still did not leave.
"It's been a long time since a new high-level demon appeared in the Forest of Innocence, where did you come from?" the old woman asked.
Yezhou opened her mouth, and before she could speak, Lu Wu on the side grabbed the words first: "Grandma, Ye Zhou, she didn't know that she had demon blood in her body, she was raised by people outside, and she became a demon hunter." ”
"What? Demon Hunter?"
The old woman's face immediately changed after hearing this, her eyes became vigilant, and Lu Wu continued: "That's right, those people outside are really cruel, they actually took our fellow clan away and raised her, and trained her to be a demon hunter to kill their own kind, it's really hateful, if it weren't for meeting me today, Ye Zhou wouldn't know how many of his own clans to kill, our demons will never kill their own kind!"
Listening to the green and sad words, the old woman's eyes calmed down a little, and she continued to look at the night boat, and saw that her clothing and habits were exactly the same as people, and she was obviously raised by someone.
"I can sense the same kind of feeling in you, but your habits have been completely integrated into the human side, it seems that Luwu is right, you have been coaxed?" said the old woman.
Nightboat's brow furrowed slightly, but he didn't answer the question.
It's a little weird, but it seems to be the way it is, she was created, and she has been on the side of people from the beginning, and if it hadn't been for the fact that Ryudu told her the truth before she died, she probably wouldn't know what she really was for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, Yezhou lowered his eyes, and a faint sadness was revealed in his eyes.
The old woman noticed the change in her eyes and said softly, "You don't have to worry too much, no matter where you grew up in the past, since you are our kind, we will definitely take care of you." ”
"Grandma, although Ye Zhou is a demon, I can't smell which race of demon she is, can you see it if you are well-informed?" Lu Wu suddenly asked.
The old woman smiled kindly, and slowly approached the night boat, trying to find a clue from the smell.
Yezhou didn't dodge, she also wanted to know what kind of demon she was, so she obediently waited for the result, but the old woman sniffed lightly twice, and her expression changed, looking a little dignified.
"It's weird, it doesn't taste right. The old woman muttered, then took out a dagger and looked at Yezhou, and asked, "There is something strange about your body, I can't smell it like this, I wonder if you are willing to donate a drop of blood so that I can find the answer from the blood?"
Yezhou shrugged indifferently: "Please." ”
After getting Yezhou's affirmation, the old woman stabbed a small wound in Yezhou's palm with a dagger without saying a word.
Instantly, bright red blood gushed out, the old woman leaned closer to her nose, her tongue gently rolled the blood into her mouth, and the next moment, her face completely changed.
"How so, child, how old are you now?" asked the old woman excitedly.
"XIV. ”
The body was only fourteen years old, and she was right.
When the old woman heard this, her expression became more and more solemn: "Fourteen years old? How is this possible, the smell on your body is not at all in recent years, how can it be only fourteen years old?"
Listening to the old woman's muttering, Yezhou became more and more puzzled: "What do you want to say?"
The old woman looked at her and said seriously: "The blood on your body has the smell of the first generation of demons, if you count the time, it should be at least more than a thousand years. ”
Hearing this, Yezhou was shocked, she could probably understand the reason, but she couldn't show flaws on her face, she only asked, "What does the first demon mean?"
"The demon was born more than a thousand years ago, although the demon clan has always lived a long life, but in the long river of this thousand years, it has also gone through many generations, with the change of bloodline from generation to generation, the purity of the demon has also undergone subtle changes, this change can be distinguished from the smell. ”
"But the smell on your body is very special, this is the smell of the first generation of demons, and the bloodline is very pure, the demon with this bloodline is likely to be the descendant of that adult, but that adult fell asleep a thousand years ago, and he has no descendants. ”
The more the old woman said, the more solemn her expression became, the bloodline on Yezhou's body came from a thousand years ago, and it was when the demons first appeared, so her bloodline belonged to the first generation, and the purity was comparable to the royal family among the demons, and it could only be the descendants of 'his' to have such purity, but it was wrong to say that it was a descendant, not to mention that 'he' had no children at all, and even if he had children, it was no longer the first generation, so Yezhou's identity was not right no matter how you looked at it.
Yezhou understood what the other party meant, and her eyes changed, and she knew very well who the person in the old woman's mouth was.
The lord of demons thousands of years ago, her old enemy.
The man had no name, everyone was called the Lord, or the Lord of the Demons, and his bloodline was the purest of all the demons, and it was also unique.
Now the old woman said that the blood in her body was very similar to that person, could it be ......
The more I thought about it, the more weird it became, and Yezhou didn't dare to think about it anymore, so he had to forcibly stop the operation of his brain and stand up suddenly.
"Sorry to bother you today, it's not too early at this moment, it's not good to bother the two of you again, I'll leave first. With that, the night boat turned and left.
Seeing this, Lu Wu hurriedly grabbed her: "Where are you going? You don't want to go back outside, do you? You are our kind, you are a demon, you should stay with us." ”
At this time, Yezhou's mind was a little messy, she just wanted to hurry back to the guild to think about it, and her face was a little impatient: "Let go, I should go back." ”
