Lu Qingjiu felt very uncomfortable, but he didn't know how to express it. He really wanted to talk to his grandfather again, but looking at the current situation, his grandfather's situation didn't seem optimistic, and this time Zhu Rong came to Bai Yuehu with his dragon claws, and he didn't know what it was for.
Zhu Miaomiao, who was in the field with Bai Yuehu, came back early. When he came back, he told Lu Qingjiu that Bai Yuehu asked her to tell her that he had something to go out, so he didn't come back for lunch.
"Did he go out with that red-haired man?" Lu Qingjiu asked.
"Well." Zhu Miaomiao nodded, "what's the matter?"
Lu Qingjiu said, "It's okay, I'll make lunch later." After all, Zhu Miaomiao is an ordinary person, so it doesn't seem to be any good to talk to her about these things.
Zhu Miaomiao nodded blankly, and she said, "Oh... that's it."
Lu Qingjiu smiled, rolled up his sleeves and went to cook. The food he eats in the morning is all glutinous rice, which is particularly resistant to hunger. Now it's almost noon, and Lu Qingjiu has no appetite. But there were still a few mouths to feed at home, so he cheered up and cooked a hearty lunch.
Lu Qingjiu used the fruits brought by Zhu Miaomiao for lunch. Lu Qingjiu made steamed rice with pineapple with glutinous rice. He also fried a plate of shrimp. Before killing pigs at home, he left some high-quality pork belly. He took it out and thawed it and fried it. Salt-fried meat, and stewed half a chicken.
Zhu Miaomiao's saliva was about to come down when she smelled the fragrance, but she didn't put down her chopsticks. She can be considered to have eaten a lot of high-quality dishes, but she has never tasted such a fascinating taste in other places. Not to mention the other dishes, even the rice in the bowl is fragrant, the grains are distinct, sweet and fragrant, and she can finish it without having to eat just this bowl of rice.
Lu Qingjiu had something in his heart, and his appetite was not very good, but he was quite happy to see Zhu Miaomiao taking a big mouthful of rice.
Seeing that Yin Xun and Zhu Miaomiao had almost eaten, Lu Qingjiu got up and said that he wanted to take a nap and left the dining table.
"Isn't Sake too happy?" Zhu Miaomiao poked Yin Xun.
Yin Xun said, "It seems like... Did something happen this morning?"
Zhu Miaomiao told the story of Bai Yuehu leaving with others.
Yin Xun said: "That may have something to do with Bai Yuehu. It's alright. It should be fine when Bai Yuehu comes back at night. I'm going to wash the dishes, so you can rest too."
Zhu Miaomiao nodded and said hello.
Lu Qingjiu went back to his room and took out the wooden box his grandma left him. The box has been closed again, and it seems that it can only be opened on Lu Qingjiu's birthday. Fortunately, Lu Qingjiu had already taken out all the contents in the box, including grandma's diary and the scales full of scars.
Seeing the scales, Lu Qingjiu suddenly thought of something. When he bathed Bai Yuehu before, Bai Yuehu mentioned that every scale of a dragon is tactile, and if the scales fall off the dragon's body Falling, will only continue to exist if the dragon agrees.
These scales are obviously the thoughts that grandfather left for grandma, and it is also the last bond between the two.
Lu Qingjiu couldn't help but picked up the dragon scale and gently stroked the old scar on it. He thought of the bloody dragon claw that Zhu Rong was holding, and felt very uncomfortable. After looking at Bai Yuehu's real body, he was full of affection for this beautiful and noble creature. Besides, his grandfather was his last relative in this world. When he thought of the wounds all over his body, Lu Qingjiu couldn't help but feel heavy. Sighed.
It was two o'clock in the afternoon, and the bright sun shone brightly throughout the yard. Yin Xun and Zhu Miaomiao were both taking a nap, and the entire old mansion was filled with an aura of silence.
Lu Qingjiu was going to put down the things in his hand, and went to bed for a while, but noticed a butterfly flying by his window. It would be fine if it was just an ordinary butterfly, but this butterfly caught Lu Qingjiu's attention as soon as it appeared, for no other reason, it was so beautiful. The wings are dark blue as a whole, with black patterns dotted on them. At first glance, it looks like a swimming black dragon. It slowly fluttered its wings and flew into the window, when Lu Qingjiu's face stopped on the black scale that belonged to Grandpa in front of him.
Lu Qingjiu looked at it and couldn't help but stretched out his finger towards it. The next moment, the butterfly flew to Lu Qingjiu's finger, fluttering its wings gently, as if telling him something.
Lu Qingjiu said, "Are you trying to tell me something?" he asked.
The butterfly seemed to understand what he said, and flew into the air again, and then flew out of the window. When it flew out, it turned back from time to time, as if it was asking Lu Qingjiu to follow.
Lu Qingjiu remembered that when his grandfather looked for him before, he seemed to have used a similar method, and hurriedly followed him out.
Butterfly went all the way, Lu Qingjiu followed closely, one person and one butterfly, one after the other, quickly left Shuifu Village and headed towards the forest.
Lu Qingjiu sent a text message to Bai Yuehu before he left, briefly explaining the situation and telling him not to worry about himself.
The butterfly flew very slowly, as if he was worried that Lu Qingjiu would not be able to keep up. Lu Qingjiu also noticed that as he followed the butterfly deeper and deeper into the forest, the surrounding environment gradually became unfamiliar. If he guessed correctly, this world belongs to Grandpa.
The lush trees around it began to wither, and there were no traces of green grass on the ground, not to mention other animals and insects. The world seemed to have lost all its vitality, leaving only a silent and dead silence.
In the midst of a dead tree, Lu Qingjiu finally saw the person he was looking for. He stopped and couldn't help shouting the call that had been held in his heart for a long time: "Grandpa..."
The man sitting in the middle of the dead tree turned his head slowly. He was wearing black clothes, his eyes were closed, and there were still unhealed scars on his cheeks. Hearing Lu Qingjiu's voice, he smiled and wanted to say something. , but remembered that he couldn't speak in this state, so he waved to Lu Qingjiu and motioned him to come over.
"Grandpa, are you alright." Lu Qingjiu hurriedly walked in front of him.
Ao Run showed a smile. He seemed to want to stretch out his hand to hold Lu Qingjiu as before, but found that his right arm was empty and he could no longer reach out. He motioned to Lu Qingjiu to put his hand up.
Looking at Ao Runkong's empty right arm, Lu Qingjiu felt that something was blocking his throat, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"You are injured." Lu Qingjiu said, "Zhu Rong said that you will die if you don't go back, I'm so worried..."
Ao Run smiled, and he wrote in Lu Qingjiu's hand, "I won't go back again."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Why..."
Ao Run explained slowly, his fingertips slid across Lu Qingjiu's palm, very light and gentle, "I stayed there before to atone for my sins, but now I have to figure it out, Qingjiu, you are my grandson, I hope you can leave Shuifu Village."
Lu Qingjiu looked at Ao Run blankly: "Why?"
Ao Run continued to write: "Because only after being polluted can you understand what pollution means." He smiled wryly and wrote, "Pollution... is just an exaggeration, to be precise, it just makes your desires completely exposed."
Lu Qingjiu thought of the red-haired grandfather, and said in a trembling voice, "The desire of the dragon clan is to eat the person you love the most?"
Aorun nodded and continued to explain: "This has been the case since ancient times, and human beings have been like this since ancient times. It's just that human beings have limited capabilities and limited destructive power, so even if many people are polluted, they will not have much impact. As for the dragon race..."
Dragons are gods. Needless to say, one can imagine the destructive power of a polluted god.
Lu Qingjiu continued to listen quietly, there were too many things he didn't understand, Ao Run's words only raised a corner of the fog.
"I'll tell you what happened that year." Ao Run wrote, "The answer will be cruel, do you want to hear it too?"
Lu Qingjiu nodded in panic, and at the same time, he felt an ominous aura.
"After I fell in love with your grandma, I had a very good time." Ao Run wrote, "But then she became pregnant, and before I knew the news, I fell into a trap and was unfortunately contaminated. ."
Lu Qingjiu sat next to him, making it easier for Aorun to write. For the first time, he felt Aorun's weakness. He didn't have the lingering aura of the dragon clan on his body, instead he looked like a misty fog that was about to disappear in the mountains in the early morning. .
Under Ao Run's slow description, Lu Qingjiu knew what happened next.
The polluted dragons will not be punished. After all, they are ancient gods, and the only restriction after being polluted is that they can no longer enter the human world. No matter what their previous personality was, the polluted dragons would change their temperament greatly afterward, becoming irritable and perverse, even a gentle temperament like Aorun was no exception. Although there were a hundred unwillingness in his heart, he was afraid of hurting his lover, so he chose to leave. At the same time, the Dragon Clan also sent a new tenant, Bai Yuehu.
Ao Run, who returned to another world, learned that his lover was pregnant. At that time, he was ecstatic, and the most thing he wanted to do was to see the child after birth. But he still had a bit of reason, knowing that if he went to the human world like this, he would most likely do something irreversible. Therefore, Ao Run forcibly forbeared his inner desires and began to look for ways to suppress pollution.
According to Aorun, pollution is actually turning your inner desires and control desires inside and out. In general, control desires will suppress desires, but after being polluted, this suppression will not be effective.
The instinct of the dragon clan is to eat what they love most, so the polluted dragon will naturally want to eat his lover uncontrollably.
Ao Run also thought about it, thinking crazy.
Even when he felt that he was about to lose control of himself, he finally found a way to reduce pollution—dividing his soul into two parts and driving the pollution to the other half, this is what Lu Qingjiu had seen before. The red-haired bum.
Splitting the soul is not an easy task for the dragon clan, and even Aorun will lose control of his body at some point, but fortunately, when he is awake, he can sneak into the human world to see his beloved. Don't worry about hurting her anymore.
Ao Run watched his daughter was born, grew up gradually, and finally left Shuifu Village at the request of her grandmother. Although he was disappointed in his heart, he also understood that instead of being a guardian, it was better to be an ordinary human being. Grandma didn't want her daughter to repeat the same mistakes, so she didn't even tell her the existence of Bai Yuehu, she hid everything until she died.
Ao Run wrote here, paused, Lu Qingjiu did not rush, but waited quietly. He hadn't looked closely before, but after careful observation at this time, he realized that Ao Run's eyebrows and eyes were indeed very similar to his mother's. Especially the pair of eyes that should be very beautiful, but now they have become two empty eyes. Lu Qingjiu took advantage of this gap to observe the surroundings. He noticed that there were some butterflies on Ao Run's shoulders and back. These butterflies were the kind of blue butterflies that brought him here. They were very beautiful.
"Are you tired?" Lu Qingjiu asked in a low voice, "If you are tired, you can talk about it next time."
Ao Run smiled and shook his head, indicating that he was not tired.
Lu Qingjiu said, "But I'm worried about you..." He smelled the blood on Ao Run's body.
Ao Run sighed slightly, stroked Lu Qingjiu's head with his only left hand, and then continued to write: "This kind of life lasted until a certain summer, when you were already very big, I once met you when you were young. I passed you, but I didn't give you a hug."
Lu Qingjiu felt sad, he stretched out his arms and hugged Ao Run tightly, as if hugging his grandma. He has no parents and grandmother, and Aorun is his only elder.
"The weather was very hot that summer. I heard that your mother seemed to want to go back to Shuifu Village, so she wanted to come to see her in the Human Realm." Ao Run wrote slowly, "It's just that I didn't expect... something uncontrollable happened. Accident."
The identity of Lu Qingjiu's mother is very special. She is neither human nor dragon, but a mixed race. If ordinary human beings are polluted, their souls will usually be suppressed in Shuifu Village. Such people cannot leave Shuifu Village. Yin Xun's family tablet is also derived from this. But in her blood, there is half of the dragon blood. During a visit to his hometown, Lu Qingjiu's mother was unfortunately also contaminated. Ao Run did not describe in detail why his mother was contaminated, and Lu Qingjiu did not ask in detail, because he could hear the great pain in Ao Run's tone.
"Someone is manipulating the whole thing behind the scenes." Ao Run wrote: "Including me and your mother."
Hearing this, Lu Qingjiu's heart twitched.
"Your mother was not spared either, she was just polluted, but probably because she has dragon blood in her body, she was not trapped in Shuifu Village and could leave." Ao Run continued, "Your Grandma didn't want her to repeat the same mistakes, so she didn't tell the other dragon clan about it. Except for Bai Yuehu, no other dragon knew about it..."
As expected, Bai Yuehu knew about Lu Qingjiu's mother from the beginning, but perhaps because of his promise with his grandma, he didn't tell Lu Qingjiu.
"After that, it will be that summer." Ao Run's hands began to tremble slightly, although his expression did not change much, there was a strong sadness on his body, "Your mother is back... I want to see her, I haven't seen her in a long time..."
Lu Qingjiu's eyes blushed when he heard this, he reached out and wiped his face, suppressing the tumbling emotions in his chest, and pressed the back of Ao Run's hand with his other hand, trying to comfort him: "Grandpa..."
Ao Run didn't answer, patted his hand and continued to write: "However, an accident happened."
Lu Qingjiu's mother suddenly broke out that part of her bloodline that belonged to the dragon clan. She ate her lover, Lu Qingjiu's father.
When Ao Run wrote these contents, Lu Qingjiu felt cold from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. He had guessed many possibilities, but never guessed the truth. Now that I think about it carefully, it was true that his mother's temperament became a lot more irritable at a certain time before the incident. At that time, he didn't think much about it, he just thought that the relationship between his mother and his father had become estranged. Until this moment, he didn't understand what that kind of irritability meant.
Humans do not have the habit of devouring their lovers, so even if they are polluted, they will not cause much harm to their lovers. At most, they will have a bad temper. But dragons are different. They are greedy animals. They can't wait to hide all their beloved things in their stomachs, and never be coveted by others.
The mother, who had recovered the blood of the dragon family, turned into a dragon body and swallowed her lover in one bite without hesitation.
And Aorun, who wanted to see his beloved daughter and arrived in the human world, witnessed all this.
Lu Qingjiu was speechless, he was in a great sadness, he couldn't imagine the scene at that time, and he couldn't imagine how he felt when he saw all this Aorun with his own eyes.
"Then, she went to the old house." Ao Run wrote, "I know what she wants to do, she wants to eat her beloved mother, my lover." He wrote this with sadness on his face He smiled kindly, "I can't allow this to happen, my love, I can only swallow it myself."
Lu Qingjiu said in a trembling voice, "So... you ate my mother."
Ao Run nodded, he seemed worried that Lu Qingjiu would dislike him because of it, he grabbed Lu Qingjiu's hand a little nervously, and continued to write: "I just wanted to stop her, but when I used my power, the polluted soul She used my body, and when I regained control of my body again, she was gone..." There was only dazzling blood and countless broken scales left, telling Ao Run what he had done.
After that, Lu Qingjiu already knew about it.
Aorun, who ate his daughter, was severely punished by the dragon clan. He did not refute it because he did it. He just didn't explain the reason, maybe it was unnecessary in his opinion. After all, letting grandma know that her daughter also ate her lover was only a blow, but no comfort.
At this time, Lu Qingjiu also thoroughly felt that it is better not to know what it means to know. He finally completely figured out the cause of his parents' death, but he didn't get a trace of comfort. He looked at the dilapidated grandfather beside him and couldn't help reaching out and grabbed his wrist. Ao Run's wrist was cold, and his whole person seemed to have lost the temperature.
"Grandpa, go back and make it clear to them." Lu Qingjiu couldn't bear to watch him continue like this, he couldn't bear to suffer such pain for his only relative, "Don't go on like this, I am your grandson, I am willing To name you..."
Ao Run smiled and shook his head. He wrote, "I came out this time with a purpose. If the purpose has not been achieved, I will not go back."
"What purpose?" Lu Qingjiu asked eagerly.
Ao Run wrote: "I told you that I was contaminated because I fell into a trap, and then your mother was contaminated because of an accident..."
Lu Qingjiu immediately understood: "You want to find the mastermind behind the scenes?!"
Ao Run nodded.
"Who the hell is he, and why did he do this?" Lu Qingjiu remembered something Bai Yuehu had given him popular science, and hurriedly said, "Is it related to the people over at Zhulong... Grandpa..."
Halfway through his words, Ao Run began to cough lowly. He coughed very hard, and finally started retching, as if he was about to cough out all his internal organs.
Lu Qingjiu quickly patted his back, trying to make him feel better, but when he patted it, he felt something was wrong. After a closer look, he realized that the ice-blue butterflies that had been attached to Aorun's back had actually changed. more and more. Lu Qingjiu had always thought that these butterflies were driven by Ao Run, but after a closer look, he realized that these butterflies were actually sucking the blood from Ao Run's clothes.
"Grandpa, grandpa! Are you alright!" Lu Qingjiu became nervous all of a sudden, he clearly felt something was wrong, "Why are there more and more butterflies."
Ao Run was still retching heavily, but after hearing Lu Qingjiu's words, some doubts appeared on his face, as if he wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a violent vomiting reaction.
But Lu Qingjiu, who was sitting next to Aorun, watched Aorun who was retching, his hair started to turn red gradually, and his gentle temperament was replaced by a maddening aura—the polluted soul coming out.
Although Lu Qingjiu knew that he was dangerous, he still couldn't bear to leave him, and when Ao Run stopped retching and raised his head, there was already a wild smile on his face, he grinned and let out another voice. He heard the hoarse voice Lu Qingjiu once heard: "Long time no see, my dear grandson."
Lu Qingjiu frowned and looked at him: "You..."
"I'm your grandfather too." He straightened up and leaned in front of Lu Qingjiu, "Why, don't you know me?"
Lu Qingjiu wanted to stand up, but he pressed his shoulder directly, he said, "He told you everything?"
"What does everything mean?" Lu Qingjiu asked, "What do you want to know?"
The red-haired Aorun clicked his tongue, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Lu Qingjiu's reaction. He flicked his empty sleeves and said unpleasantly, "Tell him, stop tossing this body, and if you toss again, it will be a lifetime. Don't even wonder what he wants to know."
Lu Qingjiu said vigilantly, "Do you know who is behind the scenes?"
"Of course I know." Ao Run laughed, he stretched out his hand, and a blue butterfly stopped on it, "Without him, there would be no me, I was created by him, of course I have to know." He waved his hand. , he grabbed the butterfly into his palm, and the butterfly actually turned into a mass of cold water in his palm.
Lu Qingjiu wanted to say something else, but Ao Run reached out and patted his head. Lu Qingjiu felt a bone-chilling cold intrude into his mind.
