"It's all fate." Lord Ruyue clapped his hands, "Now it has been taken away by the people who want you, and I can only find it back. Otherwise, you must not know the consequences of that adult getting angry, right? In fact, I don't either I know, but I don’t want to know. By the way, this medicinal soup is still very hot, you have to blow it before drinking it. It’s a pity that I can’t breathe, otherwise I would cool it down for you.”
I don't know if she was joking. She directly carried the other two portions of medicinal soup with her hands, really not feeling the extremely hot bowls. After talking about the conversation, it was not as hot as before. Han Sheng let the temperature of his hand rise in a short time, then took it and put it on the table. Miss Ruan Xiang appeared at some point. She sat on a chair nearby, held the edge of the bowl, pulled it in front of her and blew it carefully.
"Wait a minute, what kind of crystallization is it about what you said before?"
Han Chang came to his senses and suddenly asked Lord Ruyue about the topic just now.
"Ah, a small red bead, not very eye-catching. The person who brought me back to life polished it very smooth, strung it together with a bunch of acacia beans to make a bracelet, and put it on my hand. Later, I slowly With the definite consciousness - my body gradually awakened some of its remaining things, some parts used to bind me and give rules. For example: morality. In addition to the innate survival instinct, I should consider not to Benefit yourself by harming others. I began to recall the reason why I left that person in the first place. Because of fear, fear of death, fear of extinction...because I knew that he had killed many people."
This is something difficult to explain. Newly born babies cry because they are uncomfortable with the change of environment. In the final analysis, they are uneasy about this unknown world. Therefore, they will be afraid and show it in the form of crying. The same is true for the soul that has just returned, but it is manifested in a kind of madness. Isn't crying a kind of madness?
She knew from birth that those who let her live would make more people die. At that time, she could not understand the relationship. She only felt fear, simple fear - fear that death would stalk her like a plague. Just like a sheep, the butcher holding a knife approaches the sheepfold. Even though all the sheep have never seen him before, they never know what the knife is, and they instinctively feel something bad. Perhaps it was the evil spirit formed by the sorrow of the same kind who died under that knife that was giving a warning. Before the knife is raised on a particular sheep, every sheep will panic for fear of dying.
So the sheep ran away. In the process of escaping, he may have broken the spines of many companions, pierced the fur of many companions, and also endangered the lives of others in different ways, just to survive for himself. This is not an incomprehensible contradiction. Its original intention is extremely simple: to escape and survive. The sacrifices of all others are irrelevant. As long as your legs are strong enough and your horns are strong enough, you can survive.
Such a baby—such a baby as clean and simple as a sheep, begins to wander until its mind grows into a boy, a young man.
It's not a very long process. But when trying to figure out the laws of the natural world, you'll inevitably run into some trouble. From simple and crude beheading and erasure, to calming down for observation and analysis, and finally making judgment, it is a bloody process, whether it is for oneself or for foreign objects. But this zombie's existence is too special and too powerful, and no one can do anything to her. After the original consciousness of morality, guilt, justice, etc. awakened in her body, and before she discovered that abandoning it was actually the best choice for survival, she heard other humans talking about it and came to a place by accident. In the past, because of the bracelet, no Six Paths of Impermanence could find her—but now she fell into a trap and came to the Lord of Death Shadow Pavilion.
The real master of the pavilion, under the instruction of that adult, took her under his command and made her her final destination as the Six Paths of Impermanence. After all, if such a terrifying immortal body is allowed to walk around in the world, who knows what kind of uproar it will cause in the future? And the bracelet was also accepted by Miying Pavilion. After a long time, it was circulated as a commodity and somehow ended up in the hands of a special person.
That's what it is.
"Does she know what that bracelet does? Ah, thank you."
As soon as Xie Zhe asked, Ruan Xiang pushed over a bowl of cold medicine. He thanked her, took it, and asked Han Chang to help Miss Ye sit up and drink the medicine. Lord Kisaragi leaned in front of the counter and spread his hands:
"You should know, right? At least I didn't know anything at the time, and I don't even know the full function of the bracelet now. I only heard that the only red jewel in it has strong magical powers, including the ability to hide myself. Ability. I don’t know anything else. I can only say that that woman really knows her stuff. I mean, Xiao."
Everyone else nodded slowly. Indeed, even though they were far away, they could still see it through the paper hole. It was not a particularly dazzling thing. It was only because she didn't wear it around her neck when they first saw it that people paid more attention to it. And what she can take a fancy to must not be meaningless. Since it looks ordinary on the outside, it really does have an unusual effect.
"Pei, like Tao Zhu, is not an ordinary human being."
"I see. I...ah, thank you."
Xie Zhe immediately answered the question. Just as he was about to say something, Miss Ruan pushed over another bowl of medicine. Ye Linghuan drank the medicine, sat up, and slowly waited for the medicine to take effect in his body. Xie Zhe was better than her, so he was not so anxious. He took the second bowl of medicine and thanked him again.
"Lao Xie thought something was wrong before, but I didn't expect that it was really not a big deal. But to be honest, even I didn't see what was so special about these two human women."
"Strictly speaking, they are no longer human beings..." Ruyue-kun smoothed the end of his hair with one hand and carefully considered the words to explain, "I don't know how to explain it more conveniently. Have you heard of 'demon transformation'? '?"
"What?"
"I heard it."
Four people gave two answers at the same time, and the one who knew nothing was of course Miss Ye. Ling Huan turned around and looked at Ruan Xiang in surprise, with a "even you know" expression. However, if she didn't know about it as a youkai, it might still be a strange thing.
"The human world is dominated by human beings, and monsters are also a huge group in the human world. Shuras in the Shura world, hungry ghosts in the hungry ghost world, and beasts in the animal world... these are also classified according to monsters in the human world. Some people regard ghosts as It can also be regarded as a monster, but more people regard ghosts as independent existences. There is no controversy about what monsters there are. They are just the following types: parents are monsters, and those who are born are naturally monsters; those who are outside of humanity They come from different places, such as the evil gods Shura King, Gandharva, Kinnara, and Mahārāka thousands of years ago; there are also flowers, plants or animals that come from cultivation, such as this brother fox; and the collection of dead objects The essence of the sun and the moon, or the fusangshen born from people’s emotions, like this girl. The so-called gods and demons will naturally change under different situations."
"Wait a minute," Han Chang stretched out his hand, "How are you sure that my parents are not monsters?"
"I guess, what's the problem?"
"It's okay, you can continue."
Ye Linghua laughed and nodded again. Indeed, the hundreds of kinds of monsters recorded in those ghosts and monsters are all this kind of thing in the final analysis, not to mention some ghosts and so on. But before she could figure out how this was related to the "demon transformation" she just mentioned, Lord Ruyue gave her a special explanation. She looked into Ling Huan's eyes and said seriously:
"It is not a change in the spirit body of a ghost or other resentful soul, but a direct transformation from a human into a monster. No matter what this process is, it is collectively called a monster transformation - there are such monsters."
"You mean, Magistrate Fei and Tao Zhu were transformed from monsters?" Xie Zhe frowned, "That's why their auras can be so perfectly hidden... Wait a minute!"
His voice rose suddenly at the end, startling everyone else, and even the old lady who had been concentrating on grinding the medicine looked up at him. He looked solemn, thought of something, and said:
"The woman we saw on the mountain when we left Feiyue City..."
"Did she also—"
"Are there other people who have transformed into monsters?" Lord Ruyue interrupted Ling Huan and raised his eyebrows again, "Although this is not a novelty, in general, similar people seem to have become too popular recently. Much more. No wonder that adult pays attention to it. Just like..."
"It's like someone is planning something." Ruan Xiang, who was silent, said suddenly.
After all, they don't quite know how many monsters transformed directly from humans can appear in a normal period of time, but the Lord of Naraku will definitely not make a fuss about it. As a result, they all felt a little uncomfortable.
Lord Ruyue intertwined his fingers and stretched the back of his hand forward, as if stretching his muscles. She said:
"So, the whereabouts of that bracelet suddenly became important. I think that woman Tao Zhu also knows that you can escape pursuit near Li. But it's not in vain that I worked tirelessly to find out the news, found this place, and rescued you by the way. One life. Do you want to thank me properly?"
"Thank you, thank you so much..."
Several people stood up and bowed to her one after another. Lord Ruyue smiled and immediately lowered his hand to signal them to sit down. He was just joking.
"Hey, why are you so serious? I'm just joking. Speaking of which, Tao Zhu's matter should have been handled by Lord Uoyue. After all, she could have stopped it all before the demonic transformation happened. This When a woman becomes a monster, she must be inextricably linked to the male corpse next to her. But it seems that for other reasons, Utsuki-kun was sent to do other things, and now another Zaiwu Chang is tracking down. I don’t know who it is, But stay here for a while, and after I get rid of that bracelet, my colleague will be able to find this place soon."
"The work of the Six Paths of Impermanence has always been so tiring." Xie Zhe sighed slightly.
"That's why Mutsuki-kun doesn't have time to look for you directly, so he entrusts the things to you to the Death Shadow Pavilion. I hope you don't take action."
"No." He immediately refuted Han Sheng's random thoughts, "If it was unreliable, Mutsuki-kun wouldn't do this."
"Maybe I want to test you?"
"If your words come true, I won't be done with you."
"Oh, I'm just kidding, I can't say anything, so don't take it seriously with me."
"I've seen it a long time ago."
The two people went back and forth and returned to their previous state. Ye Linghua finally smiled. It seemed that everyone was fine, but it was safest to drink all the medicine. They discussed for a while that they might not be able to move around easily as they were wanted by the whole town or even the whole county. Today I discussed with the old lady, spend more money, and ask her to let a few people stay overnight, and then find a way to get out the next day. Lord Ruyue also helped others to the end and agreed to work with them to find a way to escape from the place of right and wrong.
"Actually, it's not like I haven't thought about whether I can have a direct face-to-face meeting with you by using you as bait."
"What are you doing?" Han Chang glanced at her sideways, "That's too much. You're actually taking advantage of us."
"I was thinking that since I saved your life, it wouldn't be a big deal to do me a favor, right? But I thought about it again, forget it, I guess she will let those shikigami execute you on the spot. And I can't see it at all. With her, this is more likely, right?"
"Wow, are you looking down on us?"
"It's not that I'm looking down on you, I'm afraid that you may underestimate that guy's strength." Lord Ruyue explained seriously, "After all, Tao Zhu can restrain the four of you by himself, so it's better to be careful. People who can transform into monsters, These are not simple roles.”
"Who would have thought that she used poison to play dirty tricks?"
"Okay, I know you are gentlemen, okay?"
The named Impermanence Ghost blinked, and the three suns and moons in his eyes flickered on and off.
