Chapter 916: The New Son of Our Lady
Our Lady of All Sons was half-lying on a large, soft bed, pillowed on top of each other, and the room was dimly lit, but her skin was even paler and fragile, like paper that had been stored in a dry environment for too long, and her fingers would break when she poked it, and the wind would scatter into countless pieces.
She braced her upper body and insisted on her duties: raising her hand and gently brushing the forehead of the newborn demon baby, occasionally laughing, or pinching the baby's face.
The demon servants with the baby in their arms lined up from the bedside to the door, and there was a longer line outside, and the blessed demon baby was carried out through another door, and from then on officially became a member of the extended family.
The room was filled with the loud cries of babies, and Our Lady of All Sons was accustomed to it, and even found a lot of fun in it, "The cries of these little ones are very strong, they are all good seedlings, etc...... This cry is a little familiar, like ...... Let me see, sure enough, if he was so ugly when he was born, it must be his ......"
The large bed is located in the middle of the house, and the other three sides are guarded by many children and grandchildren of the Virgin, all of whom are from the Ice City, who look surprisingly consistent, wiping the sweat, bringing water, and arranging the bedding for the Virgin at any time, and the most important duty is to take a batch of eggs every once in a while and send them to another room as quickly as possible.
The eggs were wrapped in a transparent liquid, like crystalline pearls, in a wooden bowl, and the demon servants holding it were all careful and did not squint, seeing them as more important than their own lives.
There are five doors in the room, each with its own purpose, Pei Zihan came in through the door for visitors, standing by the wall without saying a word, and no one can disturb the Virgin Mary at this time.
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons continued to bless the demon babies she bought, and caught a glimpse of Pei Zihan in the corner of the wall with her spare eyes, and said, "I saw two babies today, which should be the species you left behind, more like human beings, very cute." ”
The skeleton does not show a look on its face, only two eyes show obvious embarrassment. Pei Zihan's head hung lower, and after a while, he said: "It turns out that we were really controlled by the demon seed before, I am really stupid, please condemn the Holy Mother to me." ”
"Stupidity is not a sin, only the wise and the strong make big mistakes, are you big enough to make mistakes?"
"I ...... I knew that I was invaded by the demon mind, and I was willing to act as a slave of the demon seed, I divided the demon clan into three, six, nine and so on, provoking civil strife, and I led the elite of the demon clan to the imperial capital. Nothing has been accomplished, and I have become a captive, my mistake ......" Pei Zihan didn't know what to say, admitting that the mistake was big enough, it was like boasting about being a wise man and a strong man, thinking that the mistake was not big enough, and it seemed too insincere, and that was not in line with the facts.
"Mistakes are the way for the weak to survive, and every step we take is paved by countless mistakes. It could be your own, it could be other demon clans, can you use your past mistakes to pave the way?"
"Yes. Pei Zihan pondered for a while before answering affirmatively, "Our Lady is not weak. You've never been enchanted. ”
"Hehe, that's because I'm crazy, and the demon can't find a place in my mind, not that I'm stronger than you. Let's talk about the situation in the imperial capital. I've heard a lot of interesting anecdotes, maybe too interesting, and none of them seem to be true. ”
Pei Zihan found that he could never understand the thoughts of the Virgin of Ten Thousand Sons. If the Soul of the Alien Shi Jun is the opposite of the Dao system, this banshee is the opposite of the entire normal world, and the strange thing is that not only did she not collapse because of this, but was solid.
With deep respect, Pei Zihan told what he had seen and heard in the imperial capital, the fiasco of the demon seed, Mu Xingqiu being trapped and fleeing, the return of the Dao system, and the incredible power of the ancestor in the present world, this is everything he has learned, as for the causes and consequences, he can't say clearly.
"Mu Xingqiu, it's a pity that he didn't leave his seed at the beginning. "Our Lady of All Sons has finally completed today's blessing and can lie down comfortably, she waved her hand and motioned for the demon servants around her to retreat to both sides, and in the next time, she will not lay eggs again.
"Have you seen the new patriarch Kun Zhu?"
"I saw it when he first appeared. ”
"Tell me how you felt at the time. ”
Pei Zihan's voice revealed a deep sense of shame, "Actually, I only glanced at him, his whole body was glowing, he had a big beard, a white sword in one hand, a fire bell in the other, and for most of the rest of the time, I was lying on the ground and didn't dare to raise my head, the only feeling was fear, I was not so scared when I was surrounded by Taoist priests in Pangshan." ”
"You should be happy about that. ”
"Happy?"
"Because that means you're a real demon. ”
Pei Zihan was slightly stunned, he hadn't noticed that his performance in the imperial capital was consistent with that of the demon clan, but not the same as the humans around him.
"In this way, Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying fled, probably with the demon seed. Yi Shijun went to see Kun Chao once, and then he wanted to summon the demon clan to fight a decisive battle with the humans, right?"
"Yes. ”
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons didn't speak for a while, and her pale and fragile complexion gradually showed a little red, and the demon servants on both sides knew what this meant, and immediately took turns to send various pills, and Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons took them one by one, and her vitality gradually recovered.
She got up and got out of bed and stretched. This time, even Pei Zihan understood the meaning of this move: the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons will not lay eggs for a long time in the future, the last time it stopped was on the eve of the destruction of the ice city, and spawning is a spell that consumes a lot of energy for her, and the preliminary preparation is very troublesome, once it starts, it will not be easy to stop, and once it stops, it will take years to recast the spell.
At this time, Our Lady of All Sons was the weakest, and stood there and staggered, the room was built according to her figure, very high, she tried to move, and finally reached out and pressed on the head of one of the children, using him as a crutch, "It is tiring to have a child, or it is more labor-saving to war." ”
"Do you think you should go to war?"
"I'm afraid we don't have any other choice, but the target of the war is not humans, nor Daotong, but Kunchao. ”
"New Patriarch, the Demon Clan is not his opponent...... What I mean is that Kun Chao cares about the demon seed, and the demon clan doesn't seem to have to participate in it, just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons walked towards a door, and Pei Zihan hurriedly followed, keeping a distance of more than ten steps from her.
"Do you need a demon clan?" asked the Lady of Ten Thousand Sons without looking back.
"Of course, I myself am a demon clan, for the demon clan ......"
"No, no, I didn't mean that, I asked you if you need the demon clan in terms of interests, and I hope you can answer truthfully. ”
Pei Zihan followed behind and thought for a while. said: "Yes, very much, without the demon clan, I don't have an army, I can't concentrate on cultivation, for a herb, I have to find it myself, not to mention all kinds of magic materials." ”
"Well, you see what I mean. Let me ask you again, does the Dao system need mortals?"
Pei Zihan pondered for a while. In fact, the Dao system, like all emperors, needs a lot of materials provided by human beings, just one of the golden spirits - hundreds of mortals work hard for a year, probably only one or two, if these things are borne by the Taoist priests themselves, it will be too much time. ”
Pei Zihan suddenly understood the intention of the Holy Mother of Ten Thousand Sons, and showed a little excitement. "In turn, mortals also need the protection of the Dao, without which it is impossible for mortals to establish a dynasty and occupy the best land in the world. The demons need me too. It's like the need for the Giant Demon King at the beginning, otherwise, the demons will be a plate of scattered sand, and it will be even more difficult to gain a foothold in this world. ”
Our Lady of All Sons has come out of the room. Slowly moving through a long, tall underground passage, with rooms on both sides, the cries of demon babies can be heard from time to time. There are several houses without doors, and they are filled with translucent giant eggs, and the fetus in the eggs is faintly visible.
"What about Kun Zhu, does he need Dao Tong and mortals?"
Pei Zihan thought about it for a longer time, "The moment Kun Chao first appeared, I had a feeling that the demon clan and humans in the whole city were in his hands, and life or death was just a matter of his thoughts. But in the end, he didn't kill anyone, and even the demon captives were released, so I think he still needs Dao Tong and mortals. ”
"I saw that light, and it was rumored that it was an ancient spell called Thirty-Three Movements, and it pierced my Mud Pill Palace and took away my memory, but I don't think Kun Chao would be interested in my memory. What I want to say is that he is really, very powerful, and it is not a certain demon clan and a certain human race that surpasses him, but all, and I believe that even if he gathers all the strength of all the Taoist priests, he is not his opponent. ”
"Yi Shijun said something strange in his cell, he said...... He said that the Nine Great Treasures of the Daoist Sect had been secretly seizing the cultivation achievements of the Taoist priests of the past dynasties, forming a ...... Demon Tribulation, accumulated so far, Kun Chao has absorbed this power, and he also talked about demon souls or something. "Yi Shijun has said too much, Pei Zihan can't relay them one by one.
This is the reason why Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying fled. It's not strange for Mu Xingqiu to do this, he is a strange guy and can't get along with anyone. But Zuo Liuying...... Even if he ran away, it can only mean one thing: Kun Chao doesn't need any humans and demons, even the Dao system is useless to him, he may still be an opponent, or life or death is really just a thought for him. He has attained the state of consummation of a Taoist priest, is self-contained, and does not need any help. ”
Our Lady of Ten Thousand Sons stopped in front of a stone door, and several demon servants worked together to open the heavy door.
"I don't know the exact reason yet, but I guess it must have something to do with the Demon Seed and the Demon Soul, the escape of the two has made sentient beings temporarily 'useful', and Kun Chao's thoughts have turned to 'life', and when to turn to 'death' is only a matter of time. ”
Pei Zihan felt incredulous, and thought about it carefully, but he couldn't help but believe it, "It turns out that it's not just the demon clan that has lost hope. ”
The stone door slowly opened, revealing a huge cave hall, and the Holy Mother of Wanzi stepped in, "Aren't Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying hopeful? All beings are different from each other, each has its own way to save themselves, isn't this hope? Pei Zihan, when you are in a desperate situation, maybe there are other demon clans trying to climb up, don't give up hope, you are one of the many fathers of the demon baby." ”
There were many young demon warriors scattered in the hall, who were training, the oldest was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the youngest was only six or seven years old.
When the warriors saw the appearance of the Virgin of All Sons, they all stopped training and gathered together, different in size and in different countenances, and their fathers were very different from those of the former Virgin Mary's descendants.
"This is a place of hope, my children, my warriors, whose simple minds are untainted by the world, from which no memory has been taken away from the thirty-three movements of Kun Chao. ”
Our Lady of Wanzi turned to Pei Zihan, "As long as Mu Xingqiu and Zuo Liuying can do something, we will have a chance." ”
