Looking at my silly look, Ruxue laughed. I was puzzled by her laughter because I scratched my head and couldn't think of anything funny about my question.
But Ruxue is not Ruyue after all. It is impossible for Ruxue to laugh heartily. She just smiled, then stopped her smile, and then said: "Of course there are only three, because the fourth big demon is on your neck." superior."
On my neck, I jumped a lot. I touched my neck subconsciously, but suddenly I touched the familiar chain on my neck. Suddenly I understood everything. I pulled out the chain, and there was nothing on it. A tiger claw, and then asked in shock: "You mean? Are you saying that Silly Tiger is the fourth big demon?"
"Yes, Silly Tiger is the fourth big demon. Don't ask me what happened. What happened in the middle? Chengyi, I don't have this part of the memory, but I inherited Renhua's memory. From now on, I know clearly that Silly Tiger is the fourth big demon, and it is the leader of the big demons and the main killer. It is the most powerful one." Ruxue explained to me.
I stared blankly at the tiger claws swaying in front of my eyes. This thing I have worn for 32 years, only today did I realize that I understood it for the first time!
But Ruxue said that Silly Hu was the fourth big demon, so there was a 90% chance that the person who stopped Renhua was my master, Lao Li, but why did Lao Li kill Silly Hu? I remembered the vague memory of the time when the souls were united, the memory of Silly Tiger - the sin of killing is too heavy!
To put it another way, if there really was a transformed dragon that fell here, it taught the monsters their skills but not their moral character? Then Shahu is the most naughty disciple? is that so
Maybe not. From the perspective of a dragon, human life is not necessarily more important than the life of a monster or an animal. Furthermore, the moral principles of monsters may not be the same as those of us humans. In short, don’t imagine a dragon. , it will pick up the pointer and say to the big demon under it, come on, little ones, today we are going to take an ideological and moral lesson. The content is that when we meet an old animal crossing the river, we should take the initiative to help it, respect the old and love the young.
I found that my idea was really nonsense, but if I didn't think so, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bear the shocking fact that I had been carrying the soul of a great demon for 32 years, and I didn't even know it, and I thought of it again This seemingly unintentional trip to the old forest made me realize that fate is really funny. If I, Chen Chengyi, don't come, no one will be able to open the Tomb of the Great Demon, unless that person is more powerful than the legendary Transformed Dragon. , that’s pretty much it.
It's just that this past event is too complicated, and there are many doubts that people can't figure out clearly. For example, who was the person who stopped it? Is he my master? Was the remnant soul left behind intentional or unintentional? If it was done deliberately, how could the time be matched? After all, Renhua is such a long-term mission, and the disappearance of the master can only be traced back to a few decades ago!
And why did the master choose to play this game instead of directly teaching his skills to his disciples, or directly collecting the souls of Qi Da Yao? Leave a message and a soul! I thought about the existence of characters like Jenny and Wang Feng again, and I found that what happened in that distant past was a complete mess, and I couldn't figure it out clearly.
If I can’t think clearly, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I asked Ruxue: “It doesn’t matter who the silly tiger is. Anyway, I can understand the soul of the big demon. We have already got three of them. Where are the rest? Tell me.” How did the rest involve you?"
"It's very simple. The big demon dies, but the demonic energy in the body remains. It would take hundreds of years to completely dissipate, so Renhua and the man hid the bugs in the big demon's body. Inside, the powerful aura of the big demon gives the bugs the illusion that they are full and need to be digested. This sounds ridiculous, but the principle is very simple. It is like training a puppy to think that it has eaten when it hears a bell. It was so simple. In order to prevent the insects from being discovered by their hunger instinct, Renhua used a secret method, a secret method of sacrificing herself, to make the insects fall into a deep sleep. As long as the aura of the big demon did not dissipate, the insects would not completely wake up. Come on, go crazy. As for that person, he also took action and used Taoist secrets to seal three insect kings that were not very controlled. Of course, the suppression of the insect kings requires Renhua's breath and will. Next, you should understand, right?" Ruxue said. said to me.
I said with a bitter taste in the corner of my mouth: "Well, I understand somewhat. The aura of the big demon is about to dissipate, and the bugs are about to wake up completely. Hungry and crazy bugs! It's scary, isn't it? Ruxue, answer me , what do you need to do? Answer me again, why are you so sensitive to Lao Linzi in the village? "
Yes, this is like a big picture that has been laid out for hundreds of years. My tiger claws and my protection are like snow. Who has such a talent to take care of everything
"Let me answer your second question first. I am sensitive to Lao Linzi. According to my vague memory, I am afraid it can be traced back to an ancestral Gu in our village. It is a bloodline Gu left behind by Renhua. Every child born will be 'baptized' by the Ancestral Gu. The so-called baptism is a secret. I can only tell you that every month, the people in Yan Miao Village will be left with a seed by the Ancestral Gu in their bodies. There are many ways to do this. Meaning, what I can tell you is that at least the people of Yueyan Miao Village will not kill each other and will be very united. So, if you ask me the reason, I can only explain that the ancestral Gu left by Renhua must have something , or will it have a distant echo of Renhua?" Ruxue said uncertainly.
And I took a deep breath. If this is the case, it would be too magical. It is simply unimaginable what kind of genius Renhua is. But Gu magic has always been mysterious and profound. Think about the Gu that led to the little ghost incident. , I was relieved, after all, it was a profound subject that I didn’t quite understand.
I nodded, approved Ruxue's answer, and then looked at Ruxue nervously. Next, is the key to what Ruxue will do. Until now, I am still thinking, if it is possible, even if there is a little chance, I We all have to help Ruxue fight for freedom, even if we can no longer be together.
"As for what I want to do, then clean up this mess, bring all the bugs into the Dragon's Tomb, use the powerful breath of the dragon to continue to suppress the bugs, then use Renhua's secret method to make the bugs sleep, and use my breath to suppress the King of Insects ." Ruxue downplayed what she wanted to do.
But my throat was tight, so I said: "Ruxue, so that's why you have to go to the tomb, right? Ruxue, Renhua sacrificed herself back then and used a secret method to put the insects into a deep sleep. You, too, "
When I said this, I held Ruxue's hand tightly. As long as Ruxue said yes, I would immediately take Ruxue out regardless of everything. No matter what method I used, I would take Ruxue out of this old forest. I don't care, I don't care, I'm not the savior, I don't care if the world falls apart, I just want to live well like snow.
That's what I was thinking at that moment.
Ruxue seemed to understand my thoughts, looked at me calmly, and said: "Chengyi, what do you think Mr. Jiang would do if he encountered such a thing? Do you think he dares to die? You are Jiang You are the apprentice taught by me, what will you do?"
I was stunned for a moment, remembering the battle between humans and insects in the thunderstorm, and the battle between imps, and I seemed to see the master. He was still standing there, saying to me like this: "People always have to have something." Bottom line."
I know my answer very well. I may really make the same choice as Ruxue, but with my slimy character, I also know very well that I may be able to handle everything by myself, but I accept the people around me. No.
"Chengyi, I won't die. At that time, Renhua did this because she was short of life, but I am not. I can't use the secret technique left by Renhua to that extent. I can only guard it persistently, so that They sleep until they starve to death, and that's okay." Ruxue held my hand and comforted me softly.
"That means, it's actually no different from you in Yueyan Miao Village, right? In fact, we can still meet, Ruxue, no matter what happens in the future? Let's go to the movies again once a year, okay? I promise you, I will not be unfilial to my parents, I will definitely give them an explanation, but before that." I suddenly became excited. If this is the case, then it can be considered as a compromise.
"Chengyi!" Ruxue interrupted me with a slightly harsh tone, and then said softly: "Let's not lie to ourselves, okay? The pain of being awake is more painful than being in a coma, but in the end it will Isn't that what you are facing? I may meet you again, but I can tell you one thing for sure. Once you enter the Dragon Tomb, you will no longer be like ordinary people, and you can't come in and out freely. I don't know much about the Dragon Tomb. Everything, but this is the memory left to me by Renhua. To put it more clearly, it is not an ordinary tomb as we imagined, but some dark underground. Before dying, the dragon did something, something we Unimaginable things.”
"What could that be? You entered the Dragon Tomb. What did you eat? What did you drink? Who talked to you? I don't understand what you are talking about!" I don't understand. I only know that Ruxue is a Gu girl and an ordinary person. People, ordinary people always have to eat, drink and have diarrhea. What is going on with her? If he were in the cemetery, he would die within a month.
"Chengyi, I've told you that the Dragon's Tomb is not an ordinary cemetery. In Renhua's memory, if there was a tomb sealer who stayed, it might explain some of the situation of the Dragon's Tomb." Ruxue said.
"What is it?" I looked excited and my eyes were a little red.
"Once you enter the dragon's tomb, you abandon the mortal world!"
