"Who are these people?" Mu Ningxue asked.
The remaining wings of the moths finally found some relief after Mu Ningxue extinguished the flames. Mu Ningxue looked at the little beings that had turned into remains and wondered why those people were so cruel to Master Yu just now.
"It's from the Research Department. They have been following Master Yu and want to do some research from her." Mo Fan replied.
"How is the situation?" Mu Ningxue looked around.
"It's not good. Many moths died, but there are some who survived. Let's go and see her." Mo Fan said.
Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue walked to Master Yu and found that Master Yu was carefully holding the newly born little moths in her arms and comforting them with soft words. It was obvious that these The surviving little moths were also frightened.
Master Yu turned around and saw Mu Ningxue and Mo Fan. He forced a sad smile on his face and said, "Is it true that people like me shouldn't live in this world?"
"Don't think like that, this will be your place, but I think you may not have told us your secret truthfully. Are these people really just from the Research Institute?" Mu Ningxue said.
The Yansi Association belongs to the Magic Association no matter what, but neither Zeng Guanglie nor Inu Nan behaves like the Magic Association, and Master Yu may have attracted the attention of others.
"I" Master Yu hesitated to speak, his eyes became a little wandering.
"We won't force you if you don't want to say it, but if you really want to stay here and want us to do our best to protect you and your moths, you'd better let us know that they are chasing you like this. Only then can we completely help you solve the reason for your reluctance." Mu Ningxue said seriously.
Yu Shishi was silent for a long time, looking around at the mountains that had changed beyond recognition.
After sighing heavily, Master Yu said: "I'm afraid their real purpose is for the totem beast."
"Totem Beast" Mo Fan immediately showed a look of surprise on his face.
It turned out to be a totem beast
The power of the totem beast is quite powerful. If you can find something in those ancient ruins and use it, you can be said to be invincible.
The peace that the totem black snake brings to Hangzhou is incomparable.
Apparently there is still a group of mages who are working on the ancient totem beasts, but do the totem beasts really still exist?
"What kind of totem beast is it?" Mo Fan asked.
"Moon Moth Phoenix" Master Yu said.
"I hope that what I tell you next will be kept secret by me no matter what, because it is related to the safety of Moon Moth Phoenix. Totem beasts are powerful, but they are also extremely fragile in this era. Compared to being able to reproduce continuously, , as for other demon races that are constantly evolving, they are likely to completely disappear from this world due to a man-made disaster." Yu Shishi sat on the cold stone and said to Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue sincerely.
"I have heard something about the Moon Moth Phoenix. It seems to be a totem creature called the Yueli tribe in the south of the Yellow River Basin. At that time, it ruled the entire southern Yellow River Basin and was a very prosperous human tribe. However, it seemed that it was later replaced by another tribe. A more powerful human tribe was annexed, and the totem beast Moon Moth Phoenix gradually disappeared. It is rumored that Moon Moth Phoenix is a descendant of some of the oldest authoritative totems." Mo Fan quickly told his understanding of Moon Moth Phoenix. Said it out.
Professor Shi actually told Mo Fan a lot about the Totem Beast, so when Master Yu mentioned the Moon Moth Phoenix, he was able to tell him something immediately.
Master Yu did not expect that Mo Fan knew something about the totem beast Moon Moth Phoenix, so he continued: "The Moon Moth Phoenix is actually a creature that has been in a state of sleep for a long time, and once it reaches the end of its lifespan, it will transform into a stone. After a long period of time, the pupa will transform and hatch again, and get a new life. After each rebirth, it will gain a new lifespan."
"That means that the Moon Moth Phoenix is now in a stone pupa state, and only you know where it pupates," Mo Fan said.
Master Yu nodded. The unique fragrance on her body was also given by the Moon Moth Phoenix. It seems that those who came to the Research Council were looking for clues about the Moon Moth Phoenix from her body. Their real target was not her, but the Moon Moth. phoenix.
"I won't tell anyone where the Moon Moth Phoenix pupates." Master Yu said firmly.
"Then why did you become the moth girl?" Mu Ningxue asked.
"I suffered from a serious illness when I was very young. My family thought that I could not be cured, so they left me in a strange mountain forest. I also knew that I would not live long, so I kept walking into the forest. I walked to a place I didn't know, and I passed out on a warm and humid grass pond. I thought I was dead because I was wrapped in a white coffin-like thing. Later I found out, I was wrapped in a pupa, and I slept in it for many years. When the whole pupa opened, I was reborn in the white pupa like the Moon Moth Phoenix, without any disease or weak body. But I have wings, fangs, and my body is almost completely different from ordinary people except for appearance." Yu Shishi recounted his experience.
Listening to Master Yu's words, they finally understood why Master Yu worked so hard to protect those moths.
It was the moths that gave her a new life when she was frail and young. She was free from the pain of illness and gained strength that ordinary people never had.
The gap between her family's abandonment and Moth's redemption may have made Yu Shishi more determined that Moth looks more like her relatives. Once they are hurt, she will become desperate.
"Is Moon Moth Phoenix really still alive?" Mo Fan asked.
Master Yu nodded and said: "Moth and Phoenix are not the only totem beasts that are still alive. Humans no longer need totem beasts. Some of them went deep into the mountains and became full of wild beast habits. Some of them died in the changes of history and were completely extinct. , some are sleeping in a corner and will never wake up for anything. The Moon Moth Phoenix already belongs to the past, and it just wants to be as quiet as a stone, watching everything change until the day it dies. I don’t understand those people Why do you want to hold on to the Moon Moth Phoenix? Is it to tame it and make it a slave like a fighting beast? The Moon Moth Phoenix will never become that kind of slave under any circumstances."
"Humans used to be more like slaves to totem beasts," Mo Fan said lightly. To be continued.
