Volume 1 The Characters of the Capital Chapter 29 Old Things in the South of the City

The screams of animals can be heard, but the screams of plants are ignored, or rather, people cannot hear them at all.

Buddhism has spirituality in everything, but the vast majority of people don't think so, because people have always been skeptical of things they can't know.

When it is impossible to prove the existence of a thing, it is regarded as non-existent. But in some cases, when it is impossible to prove that something does not exist, it is not possible to deny the possibility of its existence.

Just like Lu Chengfeng, before coming into this world, he had always been a staunch atheist who only believed in his own science.

But now, eighteen years after he was reborn, he met a demon race in this bizarre world that he didn't think existed. And he himself has become a hybrid of the demon race and the human race, and to be more precise, he is the descendant of the union of two different races.

And there has always been reproductive isolation on the earth, I don't know why on this planet, the Terran giant can combine with a white fox and give birth to offspring.

Lu Chengfeng guessed that this was probably because after the demon clan turned into a human form through rest, the factors of body structure and genes also changed accordingly, and it was extremely close to the human race. As a result, reproductive isolation is eliminated, or weakened to the point where offspring can be produced.

Now for these two speculations, Lu Chengfeng believes that the second one is more likely.

Because in this world, the half-demons produced by the combination of the human race and the demon race basically have congenital defects, which is likely to be the reason why the reproductive isolation has not been completely eliminated, but the weakening of the reproductive isolation makes it possible to produce offspring after the combination of the human race and the demon race.

Lu Chengfeng didn't ask about this tree demon, he didn't want to make a tree so painful because of his curiosity.

This kind of thing still needs to be gradual, maybe at some point this dryad will remember something.

"Maybe you can look it up. "This ginkgo tree demon, which has lived for more than a hundred years and nearly two hundred years, slowly calmed down again.

"Him?"

Lu Chengfeng was a little puzzled, could it be that there were other people here? Lu Chengfeng then looked around again in order to further confirm.

Who is he referring to?

"Yes, there's an old turtle in that lake, more than two hundred years old. It seems that with him here with me, it is not too lonely. ”

After hearing the words of this ginkgo tree demon, Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but sweat profusely, it turned out that the "he" that the tree demon said was actually "it", an old turtle that was more than two hundred years old.

He thought there were other people here, but he didn't find out!

"What can a turtle know ......"

Lu Chengfeng stopped abruptly before he finished speaking, and he suddenly thought that the old turtle that the dryad was referring to was probably also a demon, maybe the old turtle knew more than the dryad, especially the dryad looked a little senile now.

Then Lu Chengfeng turned around and shouted at the lake, "Turtle senior......

Not long after, Lu Chengfeng saw a turtle crawl out and then turn into a human form.

There is a big difference between this turtle spirit and the dryad, although the dryad's strength is not low, but its own innate limitations are too great, and it can't completely turn into a human form, and it can only stay in this place, and can't go anywhere.

But this old turtle is different, it has taken on a human form, and it can go anywhere, so why does it have to stay in this lake all the time?

Could it be that there is some secret in this turtle?

Or what is the secret of this lake?

"Don't scream, you stinky boy, it's so noisy, I've heard it a long time ago. ”

I don't know why, after seeing these two demon clans, Lu Chengfeng felt that they were kinder than some people, without the slightest violent atmosphere at all, and they looked very kind, just like two respectable elders.

Although he looked a little impatient, and he didn't welcome Lu Chengfeng, he actually had a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and he didn't have many bad intentions.

"I'm really sorry to bother my seniors. It's just that the younger generation wants to know the past of the Seongnam Annex. ”

Lu Chengfeng apologized, although he knew that his approach was very impolite, but he couldn't find any better way.

"Well, though I've always lived in this lake, I don't know as much as this dryad!" said the old turtle, brushing his beard.

"It's okay senior, just know as much as you want. ”

The old turtle looked at Lu Chengfeng, then pondered for a while, and then began to tell Lu Chengfeng about the past of this Chengnan Courtyard.

It turned out that this Seongnam Villa was actually a royal annex in the past, but later a woman lived here, and this annex also changed from a royal annex to a Seongnam Annex, and became the woman's private residence.

And at that time, Emperor Xuanzong was still alive, and His Majesty was still a young prince. For a long time, the prince often came to this south of the city to visit the woman.

And that woman's name is Bai Yu, and she is Lu Chengfeng's mother in this life.

Lu Chengfeng's face changed immediately when he heard this, he didn't expect that this courtyard was actually where his mother lived back then.

Could it be that this is the same Majesty who used to sit in the courtyard drinking tea before, and is it also the Majesty who often sends people to clean it?

Did His Majesty come here because he missed his mother?

All of a sudden, a lot of speculation surged in Lu Chengfeng's mind.

Being able to crush a teacup to pieces, this person's skill is not to be underestimated, and perhaps it is really His Majesty who has entered the realm of Jindan Immortals.

But being able to knead a teacup into such a powdery form can also be done by many cultivators in the Foundation Building Realm, but Lu Chengfeng really can't guess now, besides His Majesty, who else has the reason and purpose to come here to drink tea.

But before, Lu Chengfeng was like this courtyard in the south of the city, and he explored everything inside and out. But he couldn't find anything useful, or anything related to his mother.

Although he doesn't have much mother-son affection for this mother, this mother is the one who saved his life after all, and he is also the son of that woman who has to protect her life.

Lu Chengfeng's mother was pregnant in this annex in the south of the city, but later she had left this courtyard before she had time to charge, and there was often a mess at that time, which directly involved the combination of the prince and Bai Yu.

Although the atmosphere of the Great Liang Dynasty was relatively open, it was impossible for Emperor Xuanzong to let the crown prince unite with a demon woman and give birth to an heir.

This is not only unacceptable to the entire imperial family, but even many ministers are unacceptable, after all, the royal bloodline, especially the prince's, is only about the entire Jiangshan Sheji, and about the inheritance of the Li royal family, and the purity of the royal bloodline must be guaranteed.

But throughout the ages, every child born from the combination of the human race and the demon race has been called a half-demon. And the half-demon is born with a talent defect.

This is also another reason why Emperor Xuanzong could not accept the combination of the crown prince and the demon clan.

It's just that no one thought that Lu Chengfeng would become an exception, not only did he not have a talent defect in his mood, but he was also talented, and he had already reached the level of half-step foundation building at the age of eighteen, although he did not succeed because of an accident for the first time, but there was still a great possibility of stepping into the foundation building realm before Ruoguan.

Don't look at the killers that Wang Ruoxi and Lu Chengfeng tracked before, they were all at the peak of the Innate Realm, but their real age was actually in their twenties, but they looked much younger.

Especially for cultivators who have cultivated to a high level, the aging of their appearance is slower than that of ordinary people, and if they are well maintained, even if they are forty or fifty years old, they can still look like girls in their twenties.

And at this time, Lu Chengfeng probably knew why this ginkgo tree demon felt that he had an old man's breath on him, probably because of his mother Bai Yu!

They are also demon clans, and Lu Chengfeng feels very close to this ginkgo tree demon and the old turtle, especially this Chengnan Garden, where his mother once lived.

These two demon clans wanted to have a very good relationship with his mother before.

Lu Chengfeng now knows that this Chengnan Courtyard is where his mother lived back then, and he only has some understanding of his mother and the affairs of His Majesty today, and there is not much effective information about the rest.

As for what happened in Jinling City back then, he still didn't know anything, but vaguely seemed to guess something, but he always felt that he was stuck in the most critical place and couldn't continue to guess at a deeper level.

And the things of that year were extremely secretive, not many people in the entire Jinling City knew, and all people knew was that the once prosperous Chengnan Courtyard suddenly declined, and now there is only a dilapidated courtyard left, but it has become an old talk in this Jinling City.

And not many people know that among the others in the south of this city, there is actually an emperor of the fox clan, and she has a great relationship with the prince of the dynasty.

Later, Emperor Xuanzong did something to others in the south of the city, although Emperor Xuanzong has been dead for many years, but there are not a few old ministers who stayed back then.

Perhaps the minister who participated in the old affairs of the South Courtyard of the city back then also has a lot to do with the person who ambushed him now, or the same person.

But no matter what the case may be, Lu Chengfeng must find the truth, not just to get justice for his cheap mother. is also for his own safety, no one likes death, and no one is willing to let others do it to him again and again.

Even if Lu Chengfeng has a more civilized mind, many times he can only rely on strong force, after all, after crossing countless classes, the relationship between people is not just a matter of two people, but also involves thousands of people who are inextricably linked with these two people.
