Chapter 40: Demon Blood Compassion
Across a square table, two meters away, Jin Luohua looked at the clan brother opposite who he hadn't seen for ten years, and calmed down his breathing a little quickly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Jin Luohua is actually not surnamed Jin, but surnamed Li, and no one knows about this matter. The Li family has lived in seclusion for generations, and more than 20 years ago, her parents migrated from their ancestral land, broke away from the seclusion, changed their surname, and became a side branch of the Li family. Apart from her parents, the only clansman she had ever seen was this clan brother Li Haichao, who was in charge of family liaison and gave her a red sensory bead and instructed her to turn into her bloodline for communication. After ten years, this is the first time she has received news from Ganyinzhu, but she has not the slightest surprise.
"Sister, I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?" Li Haichao's voice was rough and thick, with a sound of grit rubbing. He sat there with a big knife and poured himself a cup of tea.
"Brother Haichao, if you have anything, please tell me directly. Jin Luohua's tone was very cold, like the cold air in the private room.
Li Haichao didn't mind this, picked up the cup and drank the tea dry, raised his head and grinned: "It's nothing, I came out to buy some daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and there is a junior who has reached the age of marriage, I was thinking about finding a girl outside to bring back to the ancestral land to be his wife, and when I walked to Shashui City, I accidentally sensed your sense beads, so I called you out by the way and reminded you of a few words." I heard that you are married to the Marquis of Huaiqing?"
Seeing Jin Luohua nodded, his tone sank, and he continued: "Do you know how dangerous it is to do this? The Dongting Lin clan is one of the thirty-three families who participated in the extermination of our clan back then, if your identity is discovered, not to mention that you will definitely die, it is very likely that the clansmen will be purged again." ”
"So what?" Jin Luohua's mouth curled up in a mocking arc, "You just snatched my child?"
Li Haichao was originally in a posture of asking the teacher to ask for guilt, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and some of the second monks were puzzled: "What do you mean?
"My seven-year-old son was robbed and disappeared in February last year, do you dare to say that you didn't do it?" Jin Luohua glared angrily, and his voice trembled a little.
"Wait!" Li Haichao waved his hand, "How many sons do you have?
"Good end-to-end ?...... Heh!" Jin Luohua glared at Li Haichao's confused and innocent face, and gritted his silver teeth hatefully. When she thought of her son, she could no longer control her emotions, but she still tried to soothe her breathing and try to calm her voice a little, but her words were a little more sad: "Yes, good and decent...... , Everyone thought that my son had been found, and thought that he was by my side, but in fact, he had not been found at all, only I knew that now Twilight ......"
She paused, then spat out three words with great difficulty: "It's fake." ”
"Fake?" Li Haichao furrowed his thick eyebrows, feeling that the more he listened, the more he didn't understand, he stood up and waved his hand, releasing a gray soundproof barrier to the surroundings, and then said in a muffled voice: "So your son was really robbed? You tell me the ins and outs! It's what our Li family did, I will never deny it, it's not what we did, and you can't force on us!"
Jin Luohua glanced at him sarcastically: "Our great Li clan, the most noble Jiuli bloodline, and the demon family famous for sucking their relatives Xingfu, will they really be framed and wronged?"
"What do you mean? Do you suspect that someone from the clan has captured your son to suck the origin of the Star Mansion?" Li Haichao got up from his seat, widened his bull's eyes, and shook his head again and again, "This is impossible! The clan rules are very strict now, no one is allowed to awaken the bloodline ability, and without the bloodline ability 'Blood Spirit Devouring Heart', no one can absorb the origin of the Star Mansion, what's the use of arresting your son?"
"Really, not a single one awakened?"
"This ...... Li Haichao was stunned for a moment, his already black and red face was a little darker, and he said stubbornly, "No!"
Jin Luohua looked at him straightly, pursed his lips lightly, suddenly his eyes turned red, and his tone softened: "Brother Haichao, why do you lie to me? It's been a year, I didn't find my child a year ago, and I won't expect anything today, a year later." The child has long since died, and I know that he will not survive, and it is useless to do anything now. I don't ask for anything but to tell me where his body is, so that I, the mother, can collect the bones of my son and know where his soul goes...... , pity that he is only seven years old, and he still doesn't understand anything......"
Li Haichao sat back in his chair with a depressed face and spread his hands: "It's useless for you to beg me, I didn't lie to you, there is really no one to awaken the blood spirit to devour the heart." Besides, his old Lin family has been in charge of one side for so many years, I don't know how many bad things he has done, how many enemies he has provoked, he can't just lose his children, and you will rely on your own people without any evidence, right?"
"What if I have evidence?"
"What credentials?" you say. ”
"Red Thunder Tianfeng!" Jin Luohua wiped the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, and when he saw Li Haichao's expression on the other side, he was shocked, and continued, "In February last year, my son was clamoring to go to the street, and I took him out of the Lin Mansion. He saw a rock sugar gourd on the side of the road yelling for it, so I went over and bought him a bunch. As soon as I turned around, the two guards all fainted to the ground, and the child was nowhere to be found, so I hurriedly grabbed the people on the street and asked, but no one could see what was going on. When the two guards woke up, they both said that they only saw a phoenix made of red lightning flashing, and they were paralyzed and unconscious. This is not my Li Clan's secret astral magic Red Thunder Heavenly Phoenix, what is it?"
Li Haichao frowned, still shaking his head: "How is this possible? The Red Thunder Heavenly Phoenix is indeed my Li Clan's secret inheritance, but what if it is another star technique that looks similar? Besides, it is not what you have seen with your own eyes, the two Lin family guards have empty white teeth, how can this be believed?"
"You!" Jin Luohua saw that Li Haichao still denied it, and couldn't help but stand up, his apricot eyes widened, and he glared angrily, "In your opinion, the young master of the house is lost, and the guards will lie and deceive the master's mother?"
"Then who knows?" Li Haichao's neck stiffened, "Anyway, there is no real evidence, I can't admit this account." ”
"Okay, you said I should go to the enemy of the Hou Mansion, is the Li clan an enemy?"
“...... Count it! The Lin clan is one of the thirty-three families who plotted to murder our clan, and they have a deep blood feud with us, and they don't share the sky! But if my Li clan wants to seek revenge, it is impossible for me to attack a seven-year-old child. ”
"If the Li family doesn't do it, others will? Why did you attack my child? But the child with the Li family's blood?"
"This ...... Li Haichao was speechless for a while. He also knew in his heart that the other children of the Lin Mansion were not lost, but only the children with the blood of the Li clan were lost, so only the Li clan, who was famous for his cannibalism and the Xingfu, had a major suspicion, coupled with the astrology described in the guard's mouth, it was really too similar to the Red Thunder Tianfeng, and this suspicion was difficult to get rid of, but with his understanding of the clansmen over the years, he really couldn't figure out who would do such a thing. He thought about it in his heart, and suddenly asked, "You keep saying that your son is lost, so what's the matter with this one around you?"
"This child was found by an old man from the Lin family, and he looks the same as my son, and his name is the same. When I first sent it back, I was also in a trance, thinking that my son had really been found. But I know how can my son come back alive if he falls into your hands? Although this child is so much like Twilight that others can't tell the difference, as a mother, I can tell it clearly. What's more, I tested Xiao Dui's cultivation qualifications before, and he can practice, but now this kid has zero qualifications!"
"Oh, that means everything is exactly the same except for the qualifications?" Li Haichao wondered, "Don't you think it's strange?"
Jin Luohua shook his head: "I don't know where the child came from, and I don't know if the old man used any means to make him look the same as Twilight, and he also has some memories of Twilight." The fifth young master of the Marquis of Huaiqing was robbed in the county town, which was a great shame for the Hou Mansion, maybe they found this child in order to save face, claiming that the young master had been found when he was lost, or maybe it was just to give me a comfort. ”
Li Haichao looked at Jin Luohua, and suddenly grinned: "It's too unsatisfactory, it's full of flaws." For the sake of face, will his Lin family get back a fake young master to raise, or is it a zero qualification? Don't think I don't know, the Lin family has always been famous for its stable bloodline, it doesn't matter if you lose someone, it's really a shame to have a young master with zero qualifications! And you, if your own son is lost, you will pick up a fake son and come back, and love him like a son? Oh yes, it's still a waste wood with zero qualifications, the dignified lady of the Hou Mansion, a practicing heavenly master, take a non-related and non-related waste wood son as a baby, who will deceive it? Isn't this too funny? Hahahaha......
"Shut up!"
Jin Luohua's willow eyebrows were upside down, he shook his clothes with a cold drink, and with a flick of his jade hand, the teacup in front of him jumped off the table abruptly, and flew to Li Haichao's face door in a whirlwind, the speed was as fast as lightning, Li Haichao's carelessness was too late to stop it, so he had to hold the cup in his mouth with a mouth, and there was immediately a very strong star power in the cup that hit his mouth and nose, and he was in a hurry to dissipate the star power for a long time, and then he held the cup steadily, but his face became red because of the luck, and he couldn't laugh anymore.
The room was silent for a moment, and only the thin drops of rain could be heard ticking against the window lattice.
Jin Luohua looked at this clan brother with red eyes, and slowly shook his head: "You don't understand at all, you don't understand anything." He is a very sensible and hard-working child, not a waste of wood. Even if I don't have the qualifications to practice, I will do my best to give him the qualifications,...... He won't let anyone look down on him!"
Li Haichao reached out and took the cup in his mouth, gently put it on the table, and re-evaluated the strength of this clan sister in his heart, and subconsciously restrained a little.
Women are often paranoid and crazy when it comes to children, and Jin Luohua is especially the case. Li Haichao really didn't understand, and somehow angered her. Was she angry because she was exposed by herself? Or was the son really fake, and he provoked her? Maybe it was the loss of the child that caused her madness, and he actually said something that gave someone else's qualifications. How do you give qualifications? He asked tentatively, "What do you mean by giving him qualifications?"
Jin Luohua didn't answer, but just said to himself: "What I said is true, you must know very well in your heart that my son's affairs Li can't get rid of it." I'm sure you didn't do it, otherwise you wouldn't have come to see me like this. But my son died tragically, I must not give up, I just ask you to return the child's bones to me, and tell me the name of the enemy, but you have repeatedly denied it, then I can only leave you here, slowly torture the ancestral land, and then ask you to take me into the ancestral land. ”
As he spoke, Jin Luohua raised his hands lightly, and his fingers lit up with rainbow-like rune colors, and he saw that he was in a posture of attacking with all his might. Li Haichao didn't expect this crazy woman to come hard, just now he was faintly surprised, he felt that the other party's cultivation was a lot better than himself, and he was afraid that he would have no chance of winning if he really wanted to do it. He hurriedly got up and waved his hand: "Let's do it slowly! Why should the girl be like this? It's not that I don't want to admit it, this fact is too strange. You also know that in order to awaken the bloodline power of our clan, it is necessary to use ancestral weapons, and bloodline ancestral weapons are controlled by several grandfathers in turn, and ordinary people cannot approach them at all. There is a clan brother who has secretly woken up, but he is very strictly supervised, and he has never left the ancestral land of Liuli Valley. As for whether there are any others, I really can't think of them. You see if this will work, after I go back, I will definitely help you investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation as soon as possible!"
Jin Luohua frowned slightly, looking at him fixedly, but the blooming light in her hand had no intention of restraint.
Li Haichao was helpless, so he had to say: "Okay, I swear, I swear with the life of the whole clan, I will definitely help you find out, if it is really done by the clan, I will not tolerate it!"
Jin Luohua's expression gradually eased, she put away the runes between her fingers, sat down and said lightly: "Then please Brother Haichao, there will be heavy thanks afterwards." ”
Li Haichao said curtly: "Sister don't have to be polite, if someone really does this, the clan rules can't tolerate him, if you don't say it, we have to find out to the end." ”
Jin Luohua nodded again. Li Haichao gave in and made a promise, her mood calmed down a little, but the atmosphere in the room became awkward again, and because of the unpleasantness just now, the two of them didn't know what to say for a while. Jin Luohua got up and walked to the south window, stretched out his hand to push open the window, looked south through the heavy smoke and rain, and said indifferently: "There is the Phantom Sea Desert, Brother Haichao is in the ancestral land, have you heard the old people mention its origin?"
Li Haichao was stunned, touched the stubble on his face and recalled: "Our Li clan is one of the oldest Dongyi Jiuli bloodlines, originally lived in this coastal area, I seem to have heard the third grandfather mention, this illusory sea desert did not exist, two thousand years ago it was still a sea, and suddenly one day the sea receded before it became a desert." What the hell is going on, it's been more than 2,000 years, and how can anyone say it now?"
"That's all?" Jin Luohua looked back, seemingly slightly disappointed.
Li Haichao shook his head and said, "I can't think of anything else." What are you asking for?"
"I've heard a lot more detail. Jin Luohua said lightly, "My father told me that many years ago, there was an old man in the clan who made a contract with a powerful sea star beast, this star beast lived for thousands of years and knew some secrets about the sea. At one point, it asked the old man to come to the Phantom Sea Desert to investigate, claiming that there was a giant turtle and a dragon buried under the desert. Two thousand years ago, the turtle dragon used to fight to the death in this area, the giant tortoise is good at a unique illusion ability, can turn imagination into reality, called 'real illusion', when the fight is exhausted, it does its best to turn all the surrounding sea into a desert, and firmly suppresses itself and the dragon at the bottom of the desert. ”
Li Haichao was very surprised when he heard this, his mouth opened unconsciously, and he could almost stuff an egg: "There is such a thing?"
"Very little is known about this matter, and I am also skeptical, and I want to confirm it with you. ”
"I haven't heard of it, but the offshore sea more than two thousand years ago is different from now, at that time, there were powerful ocean star beasts, and it was not uncommon to have this level of star beast duel, but what kind of ability would there really be to make dreams come true?
"No, even if you have this ability, it won't be so easy to use, and there will definitely be all kinds of restrictions. Jin Luohua reached out and stroked his windswept hair, and there was a hint of determination in his tone, "No matter what, as long as it has the potential to allow Xiao Du to gain cultivation ability, I will find it!"
Li Haichao was taken aback again, Huo Di stood up, and said in a rough voice: "You want to use the 'True Illusion' to enable your fake son to cultivate? Not to mention that this thing can't exist, even if it really exists, how can you deal with the top star beast that has lived for thousands of years? It's just a fake son, and it's not your own, it's not worth your risk!"
Jin Luohua shook his head: "I said, you don't understand. What does it matter if it's true or false? As long as you have feelings, you are all relatives. My son is dead, and he will not be able to come back, either in revenge or not. I just thought he was my son, I loved him like my son, and I would do anything for him. ”
Jin Luohua said, with a sad look in his eyes, turned to face out the window, and continued faintly: "Actually, for me, it doesn't matter what cultivation or avenue. I just want to be a mother in peace and happiness, but I was born in such a family, and my body is also bright red blood, but the blood flows with evil and cruel abilities, and the child I gave birth to is destined to be coveted by my own clan, every day and every day, I have been careful to protect him for seven years, but he is still ...... He was killed by his people. ”
Li Haichao furrowed his thick eyebrows, he was originally very angry at Jin Luohua's resentment against the family revealed in his words, and wanted to reprimand a few words, but when he thought of the understatement of the teacup and the colorful runes that jumped between the other party's ten fingers, he had to suppress the anger. But the doubts in his heart always lingered, and he always felt that the fake son's statement was too weird. In this world where cultivation is paramount, many families do not dare to violate birth restrictions in order to give birth to a child who can practice, do not want to have so many children that they cannot afford to raise them, and even do not hesitate to abandon their closest relatives again and again. What psychology is Jin Luohua based on, born and died for a bloodless son of waste wood?
He is nothing more than a rugged man, unable to understand the delicate emotional world of a mother, let alone a mother who has lost her child. Just as the sea does not understand the dryness of the desert, just as the autumn wind does not understand the affection of the spring rain.
Outside the restaurant, in the increasingly dense drizzle, there was not a single pedestrian in sight. A hat suddenly fell from a window on the third floor, and when it was about to fall to the ground, it was grabbed by a hand stretched out from the wall, and with a slight lift of that hand, a young man dressed in gray stepped out of the seamless wall, and the hat was fastened on his head. He straightened up, reached out to support the hat on his head, and stepped into the rain with his head bowed slightly.
