Shan Hai seemed not to understand what she said and couldn't help but ask: "What, who?"
Mu Wan followed his words: "When did you know about it?"
"At first... maybe it doesn't count." Lord Ruyue tilted his head and thought for a moment, "There's probably no need for you to know about this."
"But we want to know!" Dai Luan grabbed her wrist and asked, "Since you know where Wan Guizhi is, why didn't you tell him? Why did you draw that fake case for him to help him? Who are you... for? And hiding it from Mr. Liangyue? Death Shadow Pavilion?"
Lord Ruyue smiled and said: "You are very smart for being able to string these together. But that is not the case... It doesn't hurt to tell you. After hundreds of years, I also feel that this matter should be left to chance. If I If I tell you, you may tell the truth. But don't worry, I'm not afraid of leaking secrets or anything...but I have some biased views on that gentleman."
Shan Hai can probably guess that "being dissatisfied" with that adult is not considered, but there should be quite a few impermanent ghosts who have some differences in concepts. Kisaragi-kun is a "thoughtful" person, he can see that.
"Whether we tell or not depends on what we hear. Of course, you also have the right to weigh whether to tell us."
"Having said this, I would be disrespectful if I didn't say it. However, this story is a bit long..." Lord Ruyue smiled and joked, "It's not wrong to mention Death Shadow Pavilion. Daoist Master Lin's My intuition is very accurate, this formation was indeed deployed by Lord Gaoyue back then."
They looked at her in surprise and slowed down their steps. She continued:
"The reason why I still like Satsuki-kun is because she says exactly what she said. She will do what she promised you, and she will not play any tricks with you before or after that. I don't like Hongxuan Changye... …He always has something behind his words, either lying or hiding something, a trick within a trick. It’s nothing, I don’t love him, as long as I don’t deal with him. But the contrast is too strong - for, Kuchtsuki-kun .I mean, Qingnv..."
Lord Ruyue's eyes stopped on Dai Luan. Although she said so, her eyes did treat her as an independent person. Dai Luan could see nothing else from those eyes, no unnecessary pity, inappropriate sympathy, or inexplicable attachment.
"I heard that you know the story of your previous reincarnations... Don't misunderstand me. When I was little, I didn't think you were her. I just thought that you were quite similar, and I was afraid that you would end up similar to her. In the beginning, I feel sleepy about the endless lifespan of ghosts and gods, and I feel bored when I think about myself as a human being but not having a good death. To that goddess, I only think that we are people in two worlds. Until she made that decision... ...Decided to be willing to die for the sake of friends, for the short and meaningless happiness in all the transient life, and to give up the long time, I knew that in fact we should be the same person. It’s just that my love for her was born too late, I What a pity.”
"Um……"
"Ah, that's a long way off. Let's go back to Lord Gaoyue. I learned this formation back then. Have you ever heard of Wa Jinhua?"
Shan Hai was stunned for a moment, then nodded. Many things ran through his mind when he mentioned the flower. Jintong Township, Yunge, Shiying Pavilion...
"Probably less than a hundred years...maybe it's been a while, I don't remember. There was a boy named Ye who got such a flower. It was probably the last one. He brought the flower to Lord Gaoyue and asked for fame. , I want to protect generations of people from worries about food and clothing. This request sounds really high, but Lord Gaoyue really likes that flower, so he agreed. I found out about this later. At that time, I was still traveling around, sending my favorite flowers to Flowers, birds, grass and trees are painted into the painting one by one. But after I became the six realms of impermanence, those strange paints will take away their souls. The grass and trees I painted will no longer exist, and the same is true for people. I still like it, I want to I left it in the painting forever, so I went to Qinglize to find her. I brought many paintings and wanted to exchange them with her, but she said that the flower had been made into a token and given to her subordinates..."
At that time, Lord Ruyue was disheartened, sighed and prepared to leave. Satsuki-kun noticed the paintings she brought and asked her to stay. The spiritual power of those paintings is too fragrant and fragrant... Being with the six realms of impermanence all the year round, it is easy to become alienated and transformed into monsters. This is indeed a problem that has troubled Kisaragi-kun. She has thrown away many of the most spiritual portraits she painted during her lifetime, but she still painted more and more. Lord Gaoyue taught her a set of formulas and secret techniques to seal it away. She didn't quite understand, so Lord Gaoyue asked her to come to the Dead Man's Swamp to see that the suppression seals here used the same set of rules.
So she came. The Swamp of the Dead can be regarded as an artificial spiritual vein. Although it extends in all directions, it is rarely used even by the Six Paths of Impermanence. Kisaragi-kun casually tried what Gaoyue-kun taught her, and actually resolved one of the many seals, allowing General Mu to wake up.
Hearing this, Shanhai felt something. He always felt that Lord Ruyue was the one who wanted to die in her words. The boring work and life made her feel boring. He even suspected that she deliberately broke the seal and wanted Huang Skull to kill him. And Lord Gaoyue actually knew her intentions, so he quietly added fuel to the flames. But these are all his speculations, there is nothing to verify, and it is not polite to interrupt Kisaragi-kun's narration.
She went on. Lord Kisaragi thought he would get angry, but he didn't. General Skeleton is not an irrational monster. On the contrary, he retains most of his memories during his lifetime. At that time, Kisaragi-kun brought a large brush in her box. Except for the Yun Guihao she used to draw her own paintings, they were all broken judge pens--Ruyuki-kun's used ones. Yun Guihao's materials were hard to find, so sometimes she would borrow hairs from broken pens to temporarily add some. General Mu recognized him and asked Lord Ruyue to do something for him.
He didn't want his friends to wait for him any longer.
General Mu was very sober, he clearly remembered everything related to Liang Yuejun during his lifetime, and he clearly remembered that the little scholar's mistake caused a bloody storm. All of this indirectly led to General Mugi's death, which he didn't have to die.
He could have lived.
Once it is completed, all bones will wither. When a checkmate dies, it is just the loss of one of the emperor's many chess pieces. It was not a big battle, and the losses were not heavy. He came back alive, but he was held accountable and imprisoned. He was framed and died in prison unjustly. The scholar later learned that this incident was all caused by him, and suddenly jumped into the river that night. It's a pity that he hasn't had time to take that important exam yet, but it doesn't matter anymore...
Before he died, he wanted to see that adult, and he got his wish. After explaining the cause and effect, he took the initiative to ask for help and became Xi Shu Wenxiang. Like all the Six Paths of Impermanence, he was granted access to the Book of Life and Death, and also gained the ability to know all the memories of all the ghosts in the world. The price paid for this is that he will lose all impressions of his friends until he recognizes his friends. But only after he recognizes his friend can he know whether some of the things he has read belong to his friend.
No solution.
Some people say that the adult always has "his own plans", while others say that the adult just wants people. All disputes are insignificant to that adult, not to mention Liangyue-kun is willing to do so. He only knew that he was looking for someone important, but he had no idea who it was or why.
But that kind of "importance" may be too important. It was so important that he created something as terrifying as Wanguishi.
The role of Wanguishi was not made public at the moment he wrote it. But it is inevitable that some people who see it will want to think and guess. Slowly, some people and some monsters also figured out its benefits. This is an extremely terrifying thing, with amazing power, but Liang Yuejun himself has never realized it.
General Skeleton knows. He wanted to stop him, stop this former friend who was struggling to find himself.
"Why didn't he tell him?"
Hearing this, Dai Luan finally couldn't help but ask.
"He almost said it... It was his last battle as General of the Wild Skull. At that time, Liangyue-kun was present. He wanted to say something, but the 'resentment' in the cause of death controlled him and made him He instinctively attacked..."
"Is there such a thing?"
Mu Wan was shocked. But Shan Hai seemed to be able to understand, he said: "There is indeed such a thing. Ghosts who die in vain cannot control themselves. Some do evil for the clear purpose of revenge, such as ghosts like Ying Yuejun; some are haunted by resentment and cannot control themselves. See When it comes to matters related to his own life, he will lose his rationality and become extremely manic."
"That's right. Suzuki-kun was just a scholar when he was alive, so how could he fight? Fortunately, Kanna-kun was present and suppressed General Nakamoto. Attacking the six paths of impermanence was a foolish choice for both humans and monsters, so the lord ordered Satsuki You lowered the seal. After that, the Swamp of the Dead was born. From now on, I will learn what happens in the formation..."
"So you promised General Mu to hide Wan Guizhi?"
"Yes. I personally think that it is indeed a dangerous thing. Furthermore, if I don't agree to him, he will threaten me that he will lead a million evil soldiers to cause trouble in the world, and then the master will punish us. I said I If you are willing to help him, you don't need this threat. I will bring him Wan Guizhi and let him make his own decision."
"...a question." Shan Hai asked, "How did you get it? It is true that the people around him are better at it."
"I drew a fake one." She smiled bitterly.
"No, no, wait a minute." Mu Wan was a little confused, "How can this be fake?"
"I copied a cover. It is not suitable as a carrier of memory... There are too many things in Wangui Zhi, too much, and it will burst this false painting. But time is enough. I will exchange the two. , the genuine article was sent to the Dead Man's Swamp and handed over to General Mu. He couldn't destroy this thing, it was written by Liang Yue-kun's blood, but at least it could be hidden. When Liang Yue-kun noticed it, it had already been unable to bear the weight. Those memories turned into ink residue, and the memory returned to the real thing.”
So Wan Guizhi is really in the Swamp of the Dead! Even though Liangyue-kun met his friend several times, he never recognized him.
"We can keep it secret, but there is one thing I want to ask for."
"Huhu...are you going to threaten me too?" Lord Ruyue joked.
"That's not the case. We wanted to lend it to..."
Halfway through the words, the patter of footsteps in the distance gradually became clearer. They had to take their attention away from this long conversation, slow down, and pay attention to the shadow chasing them. Several people became alert. Is it Lord Kutsutsuki? Or Tang He? Or is it Shi Wuqi who is about to be nominated by Shanhai?
neither.
"Oh, I finally found you!"
What came running turned out to be kapok. She was dirty, her arms and face were covered in mud, and she had fallen a few times on the road. Mu Wan felt distressed and ran two steps forward to meet her. she asked:
"Why did you come here? It's too dangerous! Ah, did you see... anyone else on the road?"
"How dare you pay attention." She shook her head, "This place is too big... If there is the slightest shadow of a human being, I will hide away immediately. Why have you been gone for so long? The child only relies on the birds for help. There’s not enough food. I’m really afraid something will happen to you..."
"What child?" Dai Luan walked up to her.
Shanhai frowned and looked at Lord Ruyue: "How many days...?"
Lord Kisaragi just shrugged: "The time here... I thought you knew."
The expressions of the three of them changed, and they felt as if time had been stolen, but the culprit could not be caught.
"Don't panic, speak slowly."
Mu Wan stretched out her hand and tried to wipe the mud off Kapok's face. The mud seems to be drying on it and cannot be removed.
