Chapter 57: Haunted
Although Li Yunxin had long been mentally prepared for the things about "demons" in this world, after deducing this fact, he still had a strong sense of surprise and disobedience in his heart.
The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of whom was different.
What this means is that dragons are by nature, and when they feel the right eye wherever they go, they will come to a man - a shot with all kinds of animals, and give birth to nine sons of different appearances.
The problem is that legends about dragons, phoenixes, and all kinds of famous demons and monsters existed a long, long time ago in his former world. It's so long ago that it's hard to figure out whether those magical creatures really existed in ancient times, or if people made them up.
Therefore, after coming to this world, he can accept the existence of these things. Maybe it's because of two different planes or dimensions or something, because of some kind of rules, they have produced those supernatural creatures.
However...... thing of "dragons giving birth to nine sons" is certain and made up.
Because although the saying of the nine sons of the dragon has been around for a long time, there is an exact record, but it is in a dynasty called "Ming". The emperor wondered which nine sons of the dragon were, so he went to ask his ministers. Ministers have heard of this, but they are equally unclear. So according to his vague impression, he made up his brain again and made up a few exact "dragon sons". Then, the story slowly spread and became known to everyone.
But what was "made up" in his world really exists now.
Li Yunxin felt a little incomprehensible. I also vaguely feel that something doesn't seem quite right. But these subtle feelings of disobedience were quickly replaced by another concern.
Dragons give birth to nine sons......
That is, hell - there are eight more.
Another point is that the power of faith can make demons powerful. Since in this world, everyone knows about "dragons give birth to nine sons", and even makes their images everywhere......
Then they must be extremely powerful.
...... What could Bai Yunxin, which scared such a powerful Nine Princes, be?
No, no, no...... Something is wrong. There should be no such thing in this world that is unlimitedly powerful.
If the world becomes prosperous in the future...... Billions of people know what dragons give birth to nine sons, and how powerful should they be?
A stable real-world ......
This should not be the case.
Or......
The world is on the verge of collapse...... Halfway through.
He sighed. The world is collapsing and destroying? At the very least...... It's been a thousand years. However, the tech tree in this world seems to be a bit crooked right now - if this momentum continues, it will probably linger at this level of technology for a long time.
Li Yunxin stood up, took a clean set of clothes from the hanger on the west side of the courtyard, returned to the house to change, and then walked to the vestibule.
Lao Dao was chatting with a middle-aged woman, with his hands behind his back, his eyes slightly narrowed, and his beard stroked, looking like a fairy and a man of great manhood - he seemed to have settled down a little, and he was not as depressed as before.
Li Yunxin nodded to him: "Master, I'll go out." ”
Lao Dao looked at him and knew that he was going to Qiao's house, so he hurriedly glanced at him and said, "Brother Xin'er, you come." There's an interesting story, and you should listen to it too. ”
When the woman saw Li Yunxin, her eyes narrowed into a slit and she smiled happily. Everyone likes handsome children, not to mention that she has an unmarried niece. He also beckoned: "Come on, mother-in-law will tell you." ”
At her age, in Li Yunxin's former world, she probably wanted someone to call her "eldest sister". But here you can really call yourself "mother-in-law". Li Yunxin knew that Lao Dao would not stop him because "this thing is interesting", so he smiled kindly: "Mother-in-law, what do you say?"
The woman looked at Li Yunxin with a smile and lowered her voice: "You two, be careful in the near future!"
Throwing out this sentence, he pointed to the Qiao family on the other side, and his voice was lowered, as if he was afraid of being heard by something terrible: "Haunted!"
"Ahh ”
The woman was very pleased with his performance, and said, "Mother-in-law now knows that you have all been wronged. That big and small Qiao family must not be a good person. You said that when the big official was interrogating you, didn't he just die? After that, the big and small Qiao died in the hall, well? Oh, this is retribution!"
"What retribution? It must be a soul asking for your life!" The woman's face showed a look of concentration and excitement, and her eyes gave off the kind of passionate light that is unique to middle-aged women that only appears when someone is listening, "Our neighbors all say, old Taoist and little Taoist priests—little Taoist priests, you are so handsome—where can you be the kind of people who harm people!"
"How can the people who harm people be able to provide for this Jiawen Great Heavenly Venerable and Xi Wana Dragon Maiden! So, you see, those three people, saying that there are dead people in the house, it must be Qiao Jiaming's prodigal son who wants to plot the family property and beat all the people who are loyal to the Lord to death! Tsk, how did you kill them? It is said that they were strangled to death with white silk, and after they died, they were not angry, and they beheaded them again and pushed them to the old servant...... Tsk, how to get the ...... of it"
Li Yunxin and Lao Dao glanced at each other.
This woman is really condescending if she doesn't become a screenwriter.
When she said something that seemed to be what she had seen, she asked Lao Dao without changing her face and heartbeat: "You say, isn't it?"
Lao Dao nodded: "Hmm...... If you say so, you ......"
But the woman never intended to listen to him, and went on to herself: "Therefore, the unjust soul has come to ask for his life!"
"Just the Qiao family's mansion, every night, there are women laughing!"
Li Yun thought for a while: "Mother-in-law, the Qiao family still has a daughter." ”
"Qiao Jiaxin", who was possessed by the cat demon, is still in the house. Li Yunxin had been there a few times at night before, but he just told the cat demon not to make too much trouble and spoil his business.
The cat demon is very obedient. Although he thought it was a little strange, he didn't take it to heart. Before, on the way back to the city, this cat demon behaved very well-behaved, and he gradually got used to it.
In the past few days, because he was concentrating on preparing for the "final blow" above the court, he no longer looked at the cat demon. I was supposed to go and explain to her last night, but the ninth prince came again......
What's wrong over there?
When the woman heard what he said, her eyes widened: "No, it is not! It is said that there is another girl's family—and a poor person—but guess what? The last few days living next door to her house, I have heard a group of women laughing! The voice is yin and yang, but it is not a human voice!"
