Ruan Xiang stood at the door and saluted Ye Xuici:
"Phi County Magistrate came to the Shiying Pavilion and asked for you by name. Seeing that you were not there, I came here to report... Miss Xie Yan said that you are coming this way."
Ye Xuici's eyes looked at Lord Shuangyue. They stared at each other in silence for a long time before Ye Xuici gave an answer to Ruan Xiang.
"I know, come right now."
She looked away, pushed the seat away and walked outside the room. Just when she was about to go out, Lord Shuangyue spoke again: "I hope you can consider my proposal carefully."
Ye Xuici paused, and finally left with Ruan Xiang without replying.
Calm returned to the house. After Mr. Shuangyue called the waiter to pay the bill, he didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave. He picked up the teapot and refilled himself a cup. She blew on the hot tea and put it back on the table. Then, she suddenly stood up very neatly and rushed out of the back door in a flash. Just after she stood still, the Tengu had obeyed her call when she went out and came, flapping its wings and landed next to her.
She had to make a big circle. After all, in this land, there was no guarantee that there would be no spy from the Shadow Pavilion. At least Ye Xuici was very likely to notice her following her. But with the help of Tengu, she could reach the sky above the Shadow Pavilion territory faster.
She must find a way to observe the corpse pool. On the ground, Death Shadow Pavilion will not easily allow others to approach this important area, and will definitely arrange heavy cover for possible unexpected visitors.
But not necessarily in the air.
It turns out that the evil angel mentioned in the story does have his own agenda. He doesn't like to stay in one place, or... he doesn't like to stay in places that bring him unpleasant memories. For a human boy, wandering around the world is really not an easy task, but it is not necessarily the case with the Abominable Angel.
Luwu knew how ordinary evil angels gained their power - initially targeting one or two people, one or two... people who had exactly what they needed. The target can then spread to a village or even a small town. Larger provinces and cities would be troublesome and would attract the attention of Onmyoji and the imperial court. Waiting until this time is tantamount to a head-on declaration of war on mankind. So far, no evil angel has done anything like this to expose his identity, because they are only equivalent to "newborns" among monsters and do not have much strength yet. Sometimes even the monsters around you will compete with you for business when you do something. The only person who can openly disclose his identity without fear is Lili.
However, Liar never shouted loudly about the fact that he was an evil messenger. He never deliberately controlled the rumors. Regardless of whether people believed it or not, they only stayed in words and no one took advantage of them to cause trouble for him. Or... is he actually the rumor itself?
But no matter what the current form is, it is not what Shikou wants.
Liao Wu is not necessarily Liao Wu, but bad words must be bad words. Now that he has become a monster, he has no more options. This young man's body carries too many memories that do not belong to him, but there is obviously a part of his former "self" in it. What the monster looks for has always been the soul itself, and even he thinks in this way now. But when he was still a human boy, he never thought about it.
But whether he is a young master or a big monster, he is a guy who lives in the present.
Who is he now? He himself can't tell clearly. The small body contains too many things - the earliest memory belonging to the person that the snake demon wants to recall; the memory of being reincarnated and observed by the snake demon for generations; the current and real memory A memory that belongs to this child. He has nothing to replace, but no matter which one he is, he is like himself, and no one is like him. After all, aren't they all the product of She Ji's side observation? No one is my true self except that child. But the most useless thing is precisely the short and unnecessary memories of those ten years.
As for how to survive, the young master Lian Wu has his own ideas.
"So it's you who said the bad words."
This is an inexplicable emotion. He looked at the source of the sound and saw that it was a handsome young man in gold clothes on the street. He recognized at a glance that he was not an ordinary human being among the bustling crowd. He hid his fox tail very well, but he still couldn't fool Luowu's eyes.
His presence is so special in the crowded streets. So Luwu walked towards him, raised his head, and looked at the tall fox demon who came from an unknown place.
"I told you that I smelled like a fox." Luowu's words were not polite to someone he met for the first time. "It turns out that there really is something unclean mixed in the crowd."
"Both each other." Wen Jiu was not angry. He said with a smile, "I followed your breath to find you."
"What do you want from me?"
"You left the Death Shadow Pavilion, right? You carry the aura of the swamp and the unique spiritual power of Qingli. But you are already far, far away from there... I guess you must have passed through many spiritual powers. I just came to this town. Have you made up your mind to settle here? Well, this is a very smart choice. It is very prosperous, but the location is a bit remote, and it only relies on the unique mineral resources to open up a trade route... ...Even if something happens, it can be regarded as retribution from the mountain god.”
"I have no such plan," the young man said coldly, "Don't judge me."
Wenjiu was a little surprised.
"I didn't expect this. I'm offended. May I ask what you have in mind, young master?"
"This is not something you should ask. Mind yourself." Lu Wu really didn't like being speculated. He continued: "I often go out to relax, and will return to Qinglize soon. Why do you conclude that I want to live here forever and have no plans to go back?"
"Because She Ji didn't stay in Death Shadow Pavilion."
"..."
A trace of displeasure arose in Luwu's heart, and he didn't know whether it was the content of the sentence or the behavior of the other party's speculation. Never mind, he was unhappy enough. He quickly weighed in his mind the probability of becoming an enemy of this fox and winning. Not high, after all, no vixen would suddenly be so trouble-free and not ready to deal with all unexpected changes. Although Luwu looks like a child, the memories in his heart last for more than one generation. If you really treat him as a brat, you will do so at your own risk.
I hope this fox demon can understand.
"I have no intention of being your enemy." Wen Jiu said calmly.
In such a lively street, people are walking shoulder to shoulder, and a sense of the New Year is lingering silently. No one noticed that there were two strange people talking strange words on the busy street. People only care about their own happiness.
"He was commissioned by the evil messenger of lies." Wenjiu continued, "I know we can't treat you as a simple child. He knows many things better than you and I, and is more sober. Although I am not an evil person, However, he can understand your situation. In today's world, no evil angel is powerful enough to publicly announce his existence... It will only increase the trouble. And the Six Paths of Impermanence are acting at this moment, which is also a threat to you. The best time to strike. Therefore, this friend of mine feels that for the helpless and wandering evil spirits, uniting like that in December is the most effective way to strengthen themselves."
"High-sounding." The tone of these four words really didn't sound like a child. "Stop saying those beautiful words. I don't believe how kind you are. And Wuyong's family is definitely enough for him to run the business alone, so he doesn't need it. The power of others. I'm afraid you can find me, but you have other plans."
Wen Jiu frowned with regret, but still had a smile on his face. He said:
"Some things cannot be sustained by one person. No matter whether they are strong or weak, there are always some things that cannot be replaced when united. You should know this very well."
"But no matter which life I live in, I like to fight alone." Lu Wu was almost convinced that they knew what was going on with him. As for how you know it and who said it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, now that it has happened, it is only a matter of time before the world knows about it. Although Death Shadow Pavilion is good at keeping secrets, there is also a person who is very good at selling secrets.
"Okay. It doesn't matter. I'm just asking a little bit. Since you have your own plans, there's no need to force it."
Lu Wu was slightly surprised. He also thought that Wuyonglan had some ulterior motive in sending this fox, and he had to do it. In the end, it was just a casual question. It's no wonder that he just stood on the street and talked about anything serious. What's more, this fox demon has no way to prove his identity and show that he is really the friend of the lie, or at least that he is entrusted by him. Lu Wu didn't want to waste too much energy on such confusing matters. His mind was already filled with memories that shouldn't belong to him, and he really didn't have any more space to deal with other things - he wasn't interested at all at the moment.
"However, since I have come all the way to meet you, I might as well leave you some souvenirs."
Just as Luwu turned around and was about to leave, Wen Jiu suddenly said this again. Everyone likes to take advantage, even if they are well aware of the cost. However, it depends on whether this bargain is really that "cheap". He still looked back at him. Wen Jiu casually opened his coat and took out a sheathed long knife from his waist.
Lu Wu recognized the difference of this scabbard at a glance. It has a closed spell that makes it difficult for people to detect the mystery hidden in it. Usually, this kind of sword with a magic seal will reveal spiritual or demonic power that is easily detectable. There was a twinge of doubt in his mind. Without him confirming it, Wenjiu introduced him first:
"This sword is called Resentful Eclipse." Wenjiu watched the subtle changes in his expression, "Yes... it is the Six Paths Divine Weapon that was once used for the Nightmare Dog. Now it is left in the hands of Lies, and it really has no value. Instead of giving space to someone like you - a destined person, right? That's it."
Luwu can use a sword, at least he did in the past. Although for a monster, being good at using cold weapons is like a joke that is not funny. But sometimes, these skills can still add glory to them.
No matter what you say...this is resentment.
"Why?" Liuwu, who was still staring at the straight knife, asked very cautiously, "Give it to me, what will you gain?"
"There is no benefit." Wenjiu said calmly, "But there is no benefit in staying with him. Why not hand it over and give it to colleagues in need, which can be regarded as... making friends? At least among us, It can be valuable in one place, can't it? You know, anything that's been hurt by it..."
Then we can trace its traces to the ends of the earth.
