Chapter 61: Akatsuki
Que Wan'er was surprised: "Heaven and earth change color? How crazy is that?"
The saint said slowly: "The madness of this matter may be something you have never heard of, and after hearing about it, you may also be very uncomfortable. Would you like to hear it?"
Que Wan'er hurriedly said: "I want to hear about it! I have long seen that Wu Peng is not pleasing to the eye, if I can hear about some of his crazy past, why not do it?"
Ling Ye naturally didn't want to hear the truth. The holy woman nodded, raised her eyes to look out the window, and said, "After Wu Peng was exiled back then, instead of repenting in the slightest, he became even worse. In his opinion, the reason why I ignored him was because he was just an ordinary man, who would be born, old, sick and die. Therefore, he thinks that if he can also have the divine power of immortality, I will also look at him differently. ”
Que Wan'er smiled: "This is not something that can be done easily!"
The saint was silent for a moment, and then said, "Of course he can't do it, but he is frantically seeking this power. In order to obtain the divine power of immortality, he tried all kinds of methods. In the beginning, he only sought the Xuan Gong that would keep him youthful, refining and taking pills. This is naturally harmless to people, and no one cares about him. But...... After a few years, he found that he still couldn't resist the invasion of time, and he began to go crazy. ”
"In order to achieve his goal, he diligently pursued all kinds of crooked evil arts, including practicing evil exercises, collecting yin and replenishing yang, eating all kinds of strange medicinal stones, etc., and then slowly turned into stealing and even snatching people's newborn babies, saying that eating raw can greatly replenish vitality......
Both of them snorted. Que Wan'er exclaimed: "It's so miserable!"
The saint said slowly: "At first, when babies were lost everywhere in the Holy Capital, they thought that robbers or human traffickers had stolen them and sold them to a foreign land. Until one day, Wu Peng was discovered stealing a newborn baby, and in a frenzy, he almost killed the family completely, leaving only the woman who hid in a well and escaped with her life. The woman finally reported to the official, and then everyone realized that it was Wu Peng's ghost again!"
"Having done something that is so angry with people and gods, it can't be as simple as exile. It took a lot of effort for everyone to catch Wu Peng, and he was tried again, sentenced to beheading, and comforted so many innocent lives and the people of the Holy Capital. ”
Que Wan'er sighed: "I guess, he must have escaped!"
The saint was silent for a while, and then said: "Although more than 30 years have passed, the situation of that day is still vivid in front of me. That day......"
When Wu Peng heard the verdict, he looked at me again, his eyes full of madness. I didn't want to look at him, so I got up and prepared to walk away. After walking a few steps, Wu Peng behind him laughed loudly, saying that he was infatuated with me or something, but he couldn't think of it but couldn't move my heart at all, I was just high up and didn't sympathize with his infatuation at all...... In short, he finally swore that since the high saint would not have mercy on him, he would be willing to become a demon!"
"When I heard his voice very strange, I turned my head to look at him, and saw that his eyes had turned red, and his mind was clearly completely in a state of confusion...... In the next moment, his whole body turned into a monster with a wolf's head and a mantle, struggling to break free of the chains, and slapping the executioner who was standing not far from him to death. ”
Que Wan'er exclaimed: "Transformed, turned into a werewolf, and he actually learned this legendary evil art?"
The saint nodded, and continued: "Everyone fled in all directions with a scream, and the soldiers rushed desperately to protect me and tried to kill or capture him. But the transformed Wu Peng is extremely powerful, his claws are extremely sharp, and he can catch people to death with a single grab, and even tear people alive with his hands......"
Que Wan'er said: "Holy Maiden, did you just watch and didn't stop him at that time?"
The saint said slowly: "Yes." Although I am a saint, my strength is not for fighting. To put it bluntly, I don't know how to fight, all I have is the power of protection. ”
The frenzied Wu Peng killed thirty-seven people in a row and escaped. The soldiers, too, were intimidated by his killing frenzy and did not dare to pursue, watching him flee. ”
"That night...... It was a full moon night, but the original full moon turned into a strange red moon. None of them had ever seen such a strange sight, and they didn't know what it portended, and they were so frightened that they prayed to God that God would remove this calamity. But it is clear in my heart that this round of the red moon is a war of blood!"
Ling Ye asked, "Is it the war that the empire invaded the Holy Capital back then?"
The saint sighed, "That's what I thought at the time. The frenzied Wu Peng fled to the Empire and joined the Imperial army. At that time, the Emperor of the Emperor happened to want to invade our Holy Capital, and Wu Peng was naturally extremely happy to join the Imperial Army. It is likely that he revealed a lot of things about our Holy Capital to the Imperial Army, including this Divine Moon Temple, which was suspended in mid-air. The man in the empire called Iron Emperor, so he came to the Holy Capital, learned the secret of the Moon Source Stone, and later made a wind falcon that could fly in the sky. ”
"In that war, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the casualties in the Holy Capital were much greater than those of the Empire, which was the harbinger of the Akatsuki at that time. Therefore, here in the Holy Capital, that war is called the Akatsuki War. ”
Que Wan'er sighed: "Red Moon War...... It sounds beautiful, but with such heavy casualties, only those who have experienced war know that the facts behind this seemingly beautiful name are not beautiful at all. ”
The saint nodded slowly: "Yes." It's just that I didn't expect that after more than 30 years, Wu Peng would still fight back. It is not difficult to deduce that Wu Peng still wants to destroy the Holy Capital and the Heavenly City in order to force me to submit to him. It is also because of this that he will change from the so-called witch faction to the blue faction, acting as a thug for Lan Tai to annex the holy capital. Hatred couldn't help but take root in his heart, and it grew into a towering tree!"
After listening to this past, both of them were silent. After a long time, Que Wan'er sighed: "I can't do it because of love, I fall into madness, and finally I hate because of love, and I am even more crazy...... It's really ......"
Ling Ye thought for a while and interjected, "No, I don't quite agree with your words. Wu Peng is very sober and shrewd, and there is no crazy scene at all. I think it's probably because he's so deep that he can be quiet?"
The saint smiled and said, "Not really. You once told me that Wu Peng adopted a girl. The girl had white hair and ice-blue eyes, and miraculously her injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Do you know who this is?"
