Sufeng looked around and said, "But other than this, we have no other way out."
In the poisonous fog forest.
Ye Zhenfeng and Han Ziyue walked into the barrier and looked around for signs of Zai Meng, but there was no one inside. No matter how they called Zai Meng's name, no one answered.
Han Ziyue found something shining with red light on the ground, and immediately bent down to pick it up. It turned out to be a piece of red snake scales. The scales were as big as red blood Ganoderma lucidum and shimmered with faint light.
She sniffed and said, "The snake scales still smell like blood. It seems that it just fell from the Fire Snake Demon."
Ye Zhenfeng frowned and said, "I thought Qi Songhui had trapped Zaimeng with a barrier, but unexpectedly, what was hidden inside turned out to be a fire-burning snake demon."
Han Ziyue said: "Did he release the Fire Snake Demon? He is the culprit!"
After finishing speaking, I saw a huge thing swimming out of the poisonous mist, with the red snake head raised high, already right in front of me.
Ye Zhenfeng drew out the iron-blooded Cangming Sword and was about to slash at the Fire Snake Demon. The Fire Snake Demon, who was covered in scars, looked at the two of them with tearful eyes, and suddenly spoke humanly, saying: "Please don't hurt me, I It’s another dream.”
"Dream again?!"
"Dream again?!"
Ye Zhenfeng and Han Ziyue were both shocked. The sky-burning fire burning around the iron-blooded Cangming Sword was instantly extinguished. He said: "Are you really... dreaming about your majesty again?"
Han Ziyue said: "How could your Majesty become a fire-burning snake demon?"
Zaimeng sobbed and said: "My father is from the human race, but my mother is the snake god Xuyuan, so I am half-demon."
Ye Zhenfeng was shocked. He didn't expect things to turn out like this. He said, "So you are - a demon!"
He also had the blood of the demon race flowing in his body, so when he heard Zaimeng say that he was half-demon, he couldn't help but feel something.
Zaimeng nodded and said: "Yes, I am a demon. Because I am half-demon, I am always different from ordinary people. My demon power is not strong enough, so my legs cannot walk like ordinary people for a long time."
Han Ziyue nodded and said: "No wonder His Majesty always sits on a soft bed every time he travels, or is held by the imperial master. It turns out that it is to cover up your legs from being unable to walk normally."
Zaimeng nodded, and then said: "For so many years, I have been longing to be like a real human being, able to walk normally on my legs and run unscrupulously. For this reason, the national master has been trying to help me find a way, but it doesn't work. .”
Ye Zhenfeng suddenly remembered the two corpses without lower bodies outside the stone house in the mountain that day, and said: "So the person we saw in the stone house that day was the national master? He was not making a corpse-stitching beast. Are you doing an experiment to replace human feet for your Majesty?"
Hearing what he said, Han Ziyue suddenly remembered and nodded: "When you said that, I suddenly remembered that the eyes of the person who escaped did indeed have light purple eyes."
Zaimeng nodded and said: "The Imperial Master tried several times but failed. Just when we wanted to give up, you came..."
Ye Zhenfeng felt stunned and said, "This matter still has something to do with us?"
Zaimeng nodded and said: "To be precise, it has something to do with the spirit of the ten gods."
Han Ziyue was startled and said: "The soul of the ten gods?!"
Dreaming again: "There is a legend among the demon clan that the fragments of the souls of the ten gods can strengthen the demons."
Power, as long as I swallow the souls of the ten gods, I can have powerful demon power. With powerful demon power, I can control my feet. In this way, I don’t have to turn into a snake body every new moon night, so I ordered the national master to You have planted the sub-gu, so that once you use the mother voodoo to awaken the sub-gu in your body, you can successfully control you and let you hand over the soul of the ten gods. "
Ye Zhenfeng suddenly realized at this moment that he understood why Qi Songhao wanted to feed the thousand grass birds to the cold purple moon. It was probably to feed the cold purple moon to poison him.
Han Ziyue looked at Zaimeng, shook her head and said:
"You are really confused. Although the Soul of the Ten Gods can enhance your demonic power, it must be done with pure Soul of the Ten Gods. The fragment of the Soul of the Ten Gods you swallowed was caused by the demonic breath in Sufeng's body. When he had an attack, I used it to suppress the demonic breath for him, but the fragment has been contaminated by the demonic breath and needs to be purified before it can be used."
"But you don't know how powerful it is, and you swallowed the souls of the ten gods contaminated by the devil's breath. As a result, although the demon power in your body has increased, it is also invaded by the devil's breath, and the demon power becomes even more uncontrollable."
Zaimeng stared and said: "I see, I didn't know the joints. I didn't expect that the soul of the Ten Gods was contaminated by the devil's breath..."
Zai Meng regretted that he had originally thought that the souls of the ten gods could help him achieve what he wanted, but the matter fell into chaos.
She murmured: "I was wrong... I didn't mean to hurt anyone. I just wanted to have a pair of legs that can walk normally like a human being... I was wrong."
After hearing this, Ye Zhenfeng felt soft in her heart. She thought that she was a high and mighty Queen, but in her heart, she just wanted to have a pair of legs that ordinary people have. Many times, what they have is actually beyond the reach of others. .
Han Ziyue said: "So, you swallowed the polluted souls of the ten gods, and your demonic power increased greatly and was out of control, so you went on a killing spree on the night of the new moon and killed your people. That's right. no?"
Zaimeng shook her head with tears in her eyes and said, "No, I didn't kill the person, no. I didn't set the fire, either. I'm innocent!"
Ye Zhenfeng and Han Ziyue were shocked when they heard this. They didn't expect Zaimeng to deny everything he did that day.
Ye Zhenfeng said: "How is it possible? Someone clearly saw the Fire Snake Demon killing someone that day, but you said you didn't kill the person. Your Majesty, what on earth is going on?"
Zaimeng immediately defended: "Even if the demon power is out of control, the Xuanyuan Snake God is the patron saint of the Chili people, and these Chili people are my people, how can I hurt them? Please believe me. if!"
Seeing her being so excited, Ye Zhenfeng and Han Ziyue looked at each other, and then looked at Zaimeng.
Ye Zhenfeng said: "Since you said so, what exactly happened that day? Who killed the person?"
Zaimeng raised the snake's head excitedly, his eyes trembled slightly, and said: "It was another fire-burning snake demon. It set the fire, and it also killed the people."
Ye Zhenfeng and Han Ziyue never expected that she would say such a thing, and they both doubted her words.
I dreamed that the two of them were skeptical, so I immediately explained: "I originally wanted to tell the Imperial Preceptor about this matter, but unfortunately you were chasing me in a hurry that day, and before I could elaborate, the Imperial Preceptor had left. He asked I stayed in the barrier and waited for him to come back. But I waited for you. Although I know you are foreigners and I shouldn't trust you easily, I always feel that you
They will not hurt me, so please believe what I say. "
Han Ziyue glanced at Ye Zhenfeng, as if asking with her eyes whether he believed what Zaimeng said.
As a half-demon, Ye Zhenfeng feels the same way. Because the demons were suppressed in the Valley of Demons, he had met many demons over the years, but very few demons. Zaimeng was one of the few demons he had met, and he couldn't help but feel moved.
He said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to believe you. After all, if you had not told Zi Yue that you had taken away the Soul of the Ten Gods, we would not have known about it."
Dreaming of great joy again, her big red eyes were filled with tears, and she nodded the snake's head lovingly.
Han Ziyue said: "Your Majesty, please tell us what you saw on the night of the New Moon Festival."
Dreamed again:
"That night, I devoured the souls of the ten gods at the Snake King Temple. My demon power greatly increased and I transformed into the body of an adult woman. Then Qi Songhui sent you back to the annex, while I stayed alone in the Snake King Temple to worship. Snake god.”
"At this moment, I saw the statue of the snake god in front of me turned into a red giant python. It kept spitting out blazing fire from its mouth and chased me. I also turned into a snake shape when I ran away. It was the one who set the fire, and it was also the one who destroyed the Temple of the Snake King. I escaped from the pursuit of the flaming snake demon all the way, and in the raging fire, I saw it open its mouth and bite those people to death..."
Han Ziyue said: "So it's not you who kills people, but the snake god Xuanyuan?"
Zaimeng shook his head and said, "No, my mother is the patron saint of the Chili people. How could she kill someone?"
Zaimeng has never wanted to admit that the murderer was actually his mother, so he has been reluctant to say that the snake is Xuanyuan's true body.
Ye Zhenfeng said: "If the legend back then was true, and the snake god Xuanyuan saved the Chili people in the flood, she shouldn't be a snake god who killed innocent people indiscriminately. But the Huo Yi who appeared in the Snake King Temple Snake demon, if not Yuyuan, who would it be?"
Zaimeng choked with tears and shook his head: "I don't know... I don't know..."
She was now a huge creature, and the excitement was so great that the woods shook and the rocks shook violently.
Ye Zhenfeng immediately reached out to stop her and said to her: "Hey! Your Majesty, please don't get excited..."
Zaimeng was very obedient, and then suppressed his inner emotions and looked at the two of them.
It was the first time for the two of them to be stared at by a snake with such expectancy.
Han Ziyue looked at Ye Zhenfeng and said, "If what Zaimeng said is true, then another fire snake demon must still be hiding in the realm of life and death. As long as we find another fire snake demon, everything will be revealed. ”
Ye Zhenfeng nodded and said: "Ziyue, you are right, let's find another fire snake demon first. The snake demon is so huge that it is difficult to find a place to hide."
Han Ziyue nodded, then looked at Zaimeng and said: "Before leaving, I want to purify the fragments of the soul of the ten gods in your body for your Majesty. If the contaminated fragments are allowed to stay in your body for a long time, with your Majesty's own demonic power, It will definitely be impossible to restrain the demonic breath from growing wantonly, and when the time comes, the demonic breath will turn against the guest and control her."
Ye Zhenfeng nodded and said: "A person with such strong willpower as Sufeng was almost defeated by the devil's breath, not to mention that your Majesty is still a child."
