Today is the second day after they met Wenying.
In the limited time, they have clarified many situations. Xiao is Wenying's friend, and even Han Sheng doesn't know about it. After all, they met when Hanshang left home. In the years since he was away from home, if he asked Yingying if he didn't know where to send the letter, he naturally had no idea. However, in this remote and uninhabited place, Wenying's magic has improved a lot. It seems that Grandma Fox can't reach this level just by giving her guidance.
But regarding Ye Lingyu, even Xiao, who is Yun Waijing, is helpless.
The reason is very simple. The spiritual body is in Wanren Mountain and the true body is in Xueyan Valley. With such a distance, he naturally couldn't use his original strength. Besides, it was his original intention to come here alone.
"Both monsters and humans are always keen to pry into places beyond their reach." He said, "I don't know how much I weigh. Whether my personal ability can match this vision seems to have never been determined. No one cares. I am very tired of being pursued so enthusiastically. I will only do things for people I recognize, and this is just a help, a help to friends, just like I did for the ancestors of Xueyan Valley. What I have done...and more people who want to get Yun Waijing, they just treat me as a tool and use me."
It is impossible for ordinary good guys to even meet Xiao. Anyone who can find him will basically spend all their human and financial resources. In this way, the rewards they need to pursue from Yun Waijing must be terrible. When meeting Xiao with such a mentality, he would naturally not put himself in trouble. He would only use his own unique words and little tricks to make the other person give up his fantasy as soon as possible and go home. He can also tell that people who really want something from him go through a lot of trouble to come to his door. At that time, just do things according to those people's temperament and your own mood. These were all the ways Xiao Xiao used to deal with the endless stream of visitors in the early years. Today, he has long taken everything lightly.
"If Yun Waijing was still silent in the Linxiao Temple, or if she ascended to heaven with Immortal Danning, or if she had never existed from the beginning to the end, then there would be a lot less unnecessary troubles in the world."
Saying such words that seemed to be "self-loathing", Xiaoyun was calm and gentle. In fact, he values himself deeply and loves himself just as he treats all creatures reflected in the mirror equally. It was just a boring drama that had been repeated for thousands of years. He had watched so many that he could see the ending at a glance at the beginning of knowing many things. Therefore, he bid farewell to his rusty body and came to this deserted mountain.
Now, even he himself no longer knew the endless trivial matters in the world of mortals.
"You know? Until I parted ways with the mirror body, I could still hear many people saying bad things about me."
Several people were puzzled and looked sideways.
"They said that since Yun Wai Jing has the spirit in the mirror and has mastered such huge information in the world, he never does any good deeds. He is really a heartless monster with no conscience. It seems that since the day of his birth, I I’ve heard it all the time. But who would understand that a mirror is always just a mirror? Who has ever heard that a mirror can personally tell the difference between right and wrong and disturb the true appearance of the world?”
"Human beings are so weird." Wenying spread her hands and said maturely, "Why should anyone who has the ability do anything? He has caused trouble by himself, but he has to let others wipe his ass."
This statement made Xie Zhe and the others a little embarrassed, but Wenying quickly realized something was wrong and added:
"I'm talking about the bad guys who blamed Akatsuki, not you."
But after all, in the final analysis...he couldn't help much with Ling Huan's matter. They didn't have the mirror in their hands. Let’s not talk about the attitude of the disciples of Xueyan Valley. If we really do this, wouldn’t it go against Xiao’s original intention of escaping from the world? He has been pure for too long, wandering freely in the mountains like an ordinary demon spirit. He already knew how many peaks there were in Wanren Mountain and how many rocks there were on each peak. He didn't even know the moment when the first Messenger of Evil was born. However, he has no obligation to know.
But Akatsuki is not completely helpless in some matters.
He is an open-minded and charitable Fusangshen. After hearing about Xie Zhe's and the others' experiences, he told them what he knew.
"The Wuyong clan? Well, it is indeed the Onmyoji family that was famous before I retired... At that time, they had a mixed reputation. Most of the people who hated them were monsters and some of the demon warriors who supported the rights of shikigami. . But at that time, there was no tribe as radical as Wuyonglan, at least not the heir."
Han Shangyang was a little confused: "Huh? You live in seclusion in the mountains, do you actually know about the existence of people like him?"
"I'm not closed off to that extent yet. Birds and other migrating beasts flying over the mountains often bring me news from the outside world. After all, resurrecting a dead tengu is also a huge event among monsters. Like A complete life like a tengu needs bones, flesh, soul, and essence just like humans. Skin, flesh, bones, and blood allow it to regain its physical form. Although it can be resurrected through various evil arts, it is not as stable as the original body and is risky. Lower. And the soul... intercepts and captures it before reincarnation, and even can be forcibly separated from the new body after reincarnation. But the latter is not an easy task——"
When he said this, Xiao glanced at Shuoyue Lord and seemed to mean something. Lord Shuangyue naturally knew that he was talking about the accident that happened more than five hundred years ago, the last war that made her become the six realms of impermanence. But her expression was so calm, as if she was listening to someone else's story.
"The new soul is no longer as pure as before the reincarnation, but there is probably some way to peel off the new memories. Finally, there is Jing Yuan. But there is still a way to return to heaven for the body and soul, only Jing Yuan is in an independent state. After its life disappears, it gradually weakens and evaporates over time. Unless it finds a new host. But at that time, it can only become part of the new owner's power and can never be restored."
Xie Zhe understood something, but Jiao Mo's reaction was faster than him.
"Are you saying that the Nightmare Tengu actually doesn't possess the original essence?"
"It can be said that...but the essence of essence is also the least important part. Memory is related to flesh and blood and soul, and has little to do with essence of essence. Essence of essence is just the invisible crystallization of martial arts and magic, and it can be re-refined the day after tomorrow. "
"So it needs Resentment." Xie Zhe figured it out, "Lianyu uses the demon sword to make up for its missing power..."
"If you want to eradicate the powerful assistant of lies, maybe you can think of a way from this aspect." Han Chang thought for a moment, "As long as the resentment is peeled off from its body, maybe the dog will be easier to deal with that day."
Lord Shuoyue shook his head: "Don't underestimate the power of Tengu. I'm afraid, the power that the monster draws from the resentment, and all the combat experience it has accumulated at the moment, are enough for any of us to drink. Pot. After all, even Mutsuki-kun...well, he should be fine now."
She was answered with silence. After all, even Akatsuki couldn't tell her the answer.
As for their encounter with Master Lintian, Xie Zhe also told Lord Shuangyue truthfully and expressed his gratitude to her for providing the method of passing the letter. Mr. Shuangyue was very sorry. It seemed that Lintian Master's response came too late, so that such a terrible accident happened midway. But Master Lintian cannot be blamed for the fact that Lingyu is in danger. Rather, as an object of worship that can "appear", Master Lintian is much more real than those motionless statues, and should not be treated more seriously. What a rude request. To blame, of course I can only blame Huayu for being an evil person who actually attacked such a helpless girl.
"What he is interested in is probably Miss Ye's ability to extract monsters from Wangui Zhi."
They all knew what Mr. Shuangyue said, especially Xie Zhe and Han Zhang, who had seen it with their own eyes. On the bright side, Wuyong's people might force her to keep pulling monsters out of them and use them. But according to their usual style, Ye Lingyu's situation is not optimistic. They are more willing to study out the principles, conduct more experiments repeatedly, and finally use this power for themselves. Not to mention what kind of suffering Ling Huan will suffer in this process, and whether his life can be saved, this right arm will probably be kneaded like dough on the chopping board. They had already sensed the torture those monsters had suffered from the rumors and vivid descriptions, but they did not dare to think about it in detail on Miss Ye.
According to the results of Master Lintian's inquiry, they had almost reached the southernmost point of the country. Of course, you can go further south, but you have to go east first and bypass these mountains. Once there, you will be very close to the Zanglan Sea.
As for Ye Lingyu's whereabouts, it's not like Xiao couldn't say a few words. Why does Lintian Master still say that the Nightmare Dog with resentment is in the far south? There are two possibilities. One is that they have surpassed the place where Wuyonglan and Nightmare Tengu are, and appear further south of them. Another possibility is that they have left this land and gone to the other side of the sea. They all know that the remains of Tengu will return to the legendary Tengu Tomb, which is far to the south in the Biluo Islands. But now that Wuyonglan has obtained its remains, why would it still want to go to the South?
"Maybe there are other secrets in Tengu Tomb." Han Chang said.
"But it's hard for us to take this risk." Xie Zhe lamented, "We have no clue about all this."
"It's easy to figure out," Xiao shrugged. "Now that the Wuyong family has mastered the method of bringing Tengu back to life, I'm afraid they will follow the same method and resurrect more Tengu. Whether those bones and souls match, it doesn't matter to them. It doesn’t matter, as long as it’s obedient and can fight, it’s a good dog. This is their usual way, so you have to pay more attention.”
It was as if the dead silence after the avalanche enveloped everyone, and they each had their own worries. Lord Shuangyue is worried about the silence of the deceased Tengu, as well as Qiyu - that is, the whereabouts of Xue Miyin and Liangtu. Hanshang is still thinking about warming the wine, and is as worried about Ye Lingyu's safety as Xie Zhe. Rather, everyone has varying degrees of worry about everything, but there is nothing they can do about it. Xiao looked at them from the side, with a calm face that showed no understanding of their suffering. He seemed to have helped something, but also seemed to have helped nothing.
However, he told them the way to the Tengu Tomb.
