"Haha, it seems that you can't wait to know what happened to your mother, but maybe after knowing the answer to this question, you will regret knowing all this." Yan Mo smiled and said,
However, Yan Fang's eyes were still firm and sharp, not wavering at all because of Yan Mo's words.
Seeing this, the smile on Yan Mo's face became even thicker, "You really look a lot like your mother back then. I remember she looked at me like this when I said goodbye to her that day. What a pity. ,such a pity!"
"So what exactly happened?" Yan Fang asked with a trembling voice.
After Yan Mo pondered for a moment, he put down the empty bowl in his hand, put a hand on Yan Fang's shoulder, and walked toward the back of the military camp in the moonlight.
The speed of the two of them was very fast, even when they were traveling through rugged mountains and forests, their speed did not slow down at all.
For some reason, Yan Fang could feel a warm breath coming from Yan Mo's big hand on his shoulder. This warmth made Yan Fang's already uneasy heart even more nervous.
We walked all the way to an open space at the top of Huangling Mountain, where we could only vaguely hear the noise in the military camp, but standing here and looking out, we could clearly see the brilliant lights of the entire Chang'an City.
Yan Mo said in a deep voice, "You must have seen the mourning hall set up in my camp, your mother is actually a monkey demon.
When I was ordered to massacre her entire race, she was just a newborn monkey. I felt compassion for her and secretly brought her back to my house.
Then one day, she suddenly turned into a human form. Having spent time with her and developed a relationship, I had you with her.
The existence of half-human and half-demon cannot be recognized by God, so the birth of every such child is destined to be ill-fated.
Do you often feel that your strength is too strong? "
Yan put down his consciousness and nodded. He really felt that his strength was too monster. The innate hegemonic body and the natural divine power were almost enough for him to suppress the mid-sixth-level with the strength of the early-sixth-level and meet the masters of the late-sixth-level. Once touched, even a seventh-grade master might not be able to fight.
"Do you know how high your mother's realm was back then?" Yan Mo said with some humor, "Her terrifying demon power, converted into a warrior realm, is almost as high as the eighth grade!"
Yan Fang was shocked when he heard this, "Eighth rank? Is he so powerful?"
You must know that the number of eighth-grade warriors in the human race does not exceed double digits even now. It is too terrifying that his mother was actually an eighth-grade demon at the time. His father may not even have been an eighth-grade demon at that time. Ah, then how did he raise his mother to be an eighth-grade demon?
"Haha, after all, the demon clan is different from us humans. Before they transform, they can only absorb spiritual energy by swallowing flesh and blood, but after transforming, they can choose to practice human skills to absorb spiritual energy.
Fortunately, it was a war between humans and demons at that time. I led the Yan Guards to fight the enemy every day and was able to rob her of the flesh and blood of the demon clan for her to eat. Together with some rewarded herbs and my family's savings, I finally got her. Along the way, he transformed from a frail young monkey into a great demon with unparalleled fighting power. Yan Mo said with a smile.
"Then why did she...come to that step?" Yan Fang asked hesitantly.
Although his mother was a demon clan, and she was a demon clan with extremely strong combat power, but relying on her father's prestige and momentum, and careful concealment, her mother's identity was able to be hidden in that chaotic era.
And even if he couldn't hide it, judging from Yan Mo's feelings for his mother, it was impossible for him to do that kind of thing of abandoning his wife and children. So under the circumstances at that time, who could stand up to a man with outstanding military exploits and powerful strength? With the protection of his general, how about forcing a great demon with eighth-grade strength to death?
"Actually, all this is her own choice!" Yan Mo sighed, looking at Yan Fang with sadness and pity in his eyes.
Yan Fang could feel that Yan Mo was not looking at him, but at the parts of his body that looked very much like his mother.
"The birth of a half-demon and half-human does not conform to the reincarnation of heaven, so the disaster of your birth is all on your mother.
At that time, I was leading troops to fight against the demon clan in Yuzhou, and she was pregnant for ten months, and it was finally the day for you to be born.
Unfortunately, I was trapped in the battlefield at that time, and she stopped the people in the house from telling me the news. By the time I was finally able to retreat from the battlefield and return to Chang'an, she had already given birth to you. "
Yan Fang was a little dazed after hearing this, and raised his head to look at Yan Mo with complicated eyes.
Yan Mo's face showed a look of reminiscence, and after pondering for a moment, he continued, "According to the midwife at the time, in the last ten days before delivery, the fetus was extremely weak, no fuss, and no fetal movements. Those who came to visit Doctors all say that this is a sign of premature fetal death. Even if all kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures are used to prevent the fetus from being born, it will still be miserable in the end and will probably not be able to survive.
But she just had a stubborn temper and refused to give up, life or death, and insisted on giving birth.
She ended up spending the whole night giving birth to you, and she was crying the whole night.
When I came home, she was still kneeling in front of the Buddha statue with tears on her face to pray for you. Before this, she had never believed in Buddhism or belief.
Even though I went through all the trouble to give birth to you, you are still extremely weak at this time.
No matter what formations are used to nourish you with spiritual energy, or I give you various miraculous medicines, it is of no avail. Your body is still getting weaker day by day.
I remember you at that time, such a small body contained extremely huge energy and blood power that was no less than that of a second-grade warrior.
However, you have been pale all day long, exuding an aura of twilight, and your body is deteriorating. Countless human experts have been invited, but none of them can tell what is happening to you.
You are like a setting sun. No matter how much the creatures on the earth cry out and pray, they can't keep you from sinking into darkness little by little.
Your mother also went from happy expectations at the beginning to complete despair at the end. To be honest, I wished I was without you at that time, because I didn't want my beloved woman to be depressed and sad every day because of this.
But she always told me over and over again that she really wanted to give me a child. She said that only when a man has a child can he focus on his family, and a family must have a child to make it feel like a home.
This situation has been going on for almost half a month. During this half month, I have searched almost all the martial arts masters I know, but I haven't found a solution.
When she and I were at a loss, exhausted physically and mentally, Jiang Huanglai came to find me and told me a way to cure the abnormality in you.
He said that the reason why this happens is because your body is a completely human body, so it cannot be compatible with the demon blood in your body. If you want the demon power in your body to be compatible, you can only exchange blood! "
"Blood transfusion?!" Yan Fang said in shock, "You mean my mother...she gave it to me..."
"Yes, she gave all her blood to you!" Yan Mo's eyes turned blood red when he looked at Yan Fang.
"The only way to save you is to find blood that can match both the demonic power in your body and your physical body, purify it little by little, and then put it into your body to store the demonic power. Those who can meet such conditions There is only one person." Yan Mo got close to Yan Fang's surprised face, stared at him, and said softly, "That's your mother."
Yan Fang couldn't help but take a step back, his face turned pale and his back was dripping with sweat.
Yan Mo stretched out his hand and placed it on the left side of Yan Fang's chest. Yan Fang suddenly felt a warm feeling surge under Yan Mo's hand, as if there was a fire burning in his chest, making him feel full of power.
"I don't know what method she used to hide from me and Huang Huang and eavesdrop on our conversation, but after we finished talking, she had already exchanged all her blood and essence into your body. .
It is in this position, in your chest, where your mother's blood flows, as well as all the demonic power in your body. "
Yan Fang lowered his head and stared blankly at his chest, carefully feeling the violent aura under the skin, flesh and bones that had been roaring and shouting, wanting to go completely crazy. If this aura was allowed to expand, it would probably instantly destroy Yan Fang's body. All the pollution caused all the internal energy in his body to riot.
However, no matter how raging this group of breath was, it was always firmly restricted to the chest.
That ball of essence and blood is like a lock, sealing off all dangers.
"This is...the...blood that my mother left for me..."
Yan Mo withdrew Detail's hand, but Yan Fang put his hand on his chest again, feeling the warm feeling.
"She gave you all her essence and blood, and also spent her own cultivation to seal all the demonic power in your body. However, after losing her cultivation and essence and blood, her body quickly aged and her life came to an end. You have to know , she stayed with you for the last few years of her life, so... don't blame her." Yan Mo's voice was hoarse, and her eyes were already moist, "As for what I said... I have nothing to defend. , whether you hate me or blame me, I accept it all. After all, what I can do for you is not much more than what I have already done for you."
Yan Fang bit her lips tightly to prevent the sobs already in her throat from coming out.
He could feel that although his father sounded so calm and calm, in fact, how much less pain had he endured over the years?
Watching the woman he loves going towards destruction bit by bit, but he is powerless. That feeling of powerlessness and guilt is enough to destroy any man.
What's more, if calculated carefully, he was the culprit responsible for his mother's death, and this may be part of the reason why his father wanted to see him for so many years.
"You don't have to think too much, I promised your mother to take good care of you, and she also hopes that you can grow up safely and happily.
But in today's troubled times, there is no pure land where you can live a quiet life. I can only take you with me so that you can also have the ability to protect yourself. I just hope that everything I do now will not be a burden to you in the future. "
Yan Mo took a deep look at Yan Fang, and then carefully took out a somewhat worn sachet embroidered with lotus flowers from his arms.
Yan Mo deftly unsealed the sachet and took out a small circle of long hair.
"Stretch out your hand." Yan Mo said.
Yan Fang stretched out his right hand and looked at him with some confusion.
Yan Mo used a small amount of internal force to gather the small amount of black hair into a thin rope and tied it tightly to Yan Fang's wrist.
After doing all this, Yan Mo carefully put the sachet into his arms.
Yan Fang looked down at the bunch of hair tied to his wrist. He could feel that when the bunch of hair was tied, it seemed to echo the mass of essence and blood on his chest. The seal of the evil spirit was also there. It was stronger, and this layer of seal was also bound to the hair on his wrist.
"This is what your mother left for you. She said that if one day you encounter a life and death crisis that cannot be solved, or you feel that you have reached a point where the monster race and the human race can survive under the same sky, you can solve it." Yan Mo whispered.
Yan Fang put down his sleeves and covered his wrists, and the father and son fell into silence for a long time.
Until in the distance, countless fireworks were set off in the sky of Chang'an City. The brilliant light lit up the dark sky and illuminated the people looking up on the ground.
A melodious sound of bells floated over the palace.
This is the bell of the new year!
Bathed in the sound of the bells, the people in Chang'an City and surrounding areas felt refreshed and healthy.
The centenarian, who was seriously ill and bedridden all year round, immediately got out of bed, went out and knelt down in the direction of the palace.
A man with missing arms and legs actually grew new limbs out of thin air, and they stretched freely, as if they were exactly the same as the original ones.
Those warriors who have been in seclusion all year round, huddled in secret rooms, trying to break through the bottleneck, have also been blessed. After listening to the bells, many warriors have broken the shackles that have troubled them for many years, and have entered a new realm.
As for those warriors who have not broken through the realm, their realm in martial arts has also risen a lot.
One by one, the warriors who had received blessings from the sound of the bell exploded with momentum, shaking Chang'an!
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou Huang, for your gift. I wish Mr. Zhou Huang a long life and great blessings!"
"Your Majesty, Emperor Zhou, has boundless kindness and Taoism, and he will become an immortal in the near future!"
…………
The deep and affectionate shouts contained the respect and gratitude these warriors had for their Lord Zhou Emperor at this moment.
For warriors, being able to help them in martial arts is almost equivalent to having a mentor who teaches them martial arts!
Moreover, warriors have always respected the strong, and being able to bring blessings to so many people at the same time with the sound of a bell, the power of Lord Zhou Huang is already daunting.
