MTL - Urban Tales of Demons and Spirits-Chapter 228 Zhu Xuan's Narrative
"Bai Zhuxuan? Are you serious?"
Immediately after class, I followed behind Zhu Xuan, three steps and two steps to catch up with him, and talked about his nondescript name. Bayi Chinese W≤W≈W =. ≈8 ≠ 1≥Z≥W≈. ≤C≥OM
"What's your opinion on my name?" Zhu Xuan looked at me with amusement. "I feel more like a name than the name" Wen Jiubai. "
"When it comes to Wen Jiubai, can't you tell me what is going on?" Zhu Xuan walked quickly, as if he was trying to avoid the crowd. I can only keep up with him if I trot.
"I've been stuck in the drum by you and Wen Jiuba for a long time. Can't I have something to discuss with me once?" I asked breathlessly, and the discomfort in my tone was already obvious.
"I don't want to tell you, but I don't want other unrelated people to get in." Zhu Xuan stopped suddenly, at this time I had chased him to a corner where nobody was, "I told you you can , But can you promise not to tell anyone about it? "
I felt deeply distrusted, and I could not help but frown. "Zhu Xuan, I did n’t even disclose these two best friends Su Xiaoyi and Shi Yitong. Do you think I will tell others? I ’m the one The one who didn't want to involve innocent classmates! "
Zhu Xuan did not hesitate to argue with me, just nodded, "That's the best. Because this time is different from those petty cases you dealt with before. The thing about Ling Xiao is a blood rain with a little carelessness Gust of wind. "
I directly interrupted Zhu Xuan's words: "When did you become so embarrassed? Tell me what happened to Yu Ruyi. Are you looking for it like Wen Jiubai? Why did you find Yu Ruyi and find my school? "
"This is not a puppet, it is prudent." Zhu Xuan argued, but it seemed very unconvincing in my tough tone. "Well, I know this thing from a long time ago. Although for you humans, This may be just a legend, but you must know that all legends are forgotten history. For those of us who have a long life, the past things will be vividly remembered. A long time ago, Yu Ruyi was a huge demon. The treasure of the snake, the demon snake relied on that Ruyi to rule more than half of the hills. However, the sky is constant, and soon after, the demon snake was rebelled by other monsters and died under the cliff. The devil died Later, all the monsters tried to grab the jade Ruyi, but no one could find it. It was like it had long legs, and it has disappeared strangely since then. "
I listened very carefully and nodded.
"Until the nine-tailed fox disappeared, such mysterious treasures surfaced again, and caused a new round of scramble. Numerous greedy monsters are eager to get it and realize their wishes."
"Does it seem to rule the world or something?" I could not help but interjected.
Zhu Xuan gave me a surprised look and shook his head slightly. "No, of course not. In fact, most of the wishes may not be what you think, but the wishes of the monsters to realize at all costs."
"What wish?" Zhu Xuan's words aroused my curiosity.
Zhu Xuan groaned and said, "I have seen a ghost. He has been looking for Yu Ruyi for more than 300 years. His wish is to see his wife again. I have also seen a cat demon. She In order to fight for Yu Ruyi, she fought with other monsters several times, every time she broke her blood, and once nearly lost her life, and her wish was to forget a memory of her own former master ... ”
I looked at Zhuxuan in surprise. I really didn't think that the monsters were competing for Yuruyi. It was for this wish. This is greatly unexpected, because the wishes of these monsters are so ...
Humanity. Obviously they are not humans at all.
"However," at this point, Zhu Xuan's words suddenly turned, "In this battle, all the monsters I have ever gotten Yu Ruyi gradually disappeared. No one really got the so-called happiness, but instead Through Yu Ruyi, the monsters disappeared one after another as if they were cursed. But even so, they are still vying for it. I only have the chance to see a monster who has been wished. He is getting a second wish. The sky threw it out in the wilderness, and when I found him, he was lying under a big tree, and said arrogantly, "This is a deal with demons", and soon It turned into a loess of loess, and the smoke disappeared. "
"Dead?" I asked in surprise.
Zhu Xuan nodded, confirming my guess, "After that, I realized the danger of Yu Ruyi. It is not an artifact that can satisfy people's wishes at all, it is just an evil curse. So I am very Quickly find a way to find Yu Ruyi, and then bury it with your own hands, this is the end of the contention between the monsters. "
I hesitated, "Wait, in other words, you hid Jade Ruyi from others to find it? Does that mean?"
Zhu Xuan nodded, not knowing if it was my illusion, his face seemed to be darker.
"But Gu Yu, that is, when I found Yu Ruyi, I finally understood what the monster said before he died. He said‘ the devil ’, which literally means.”
I was even more confused, "What?"
"That thing is not a dead thing, it has life." Zhu Xuan shook his head. "That thing is a creature."
Zhu Xuan's words made me goosebumps all over me, "What do you mean it has life?"
"That's what I mean." Zhu Xuan narrowed the distance between me and looked at me very seriously, saying word by word, "Gu Yu, do you know Cordyceps?"
I nodded hesitantly, "Of course ... it's a Chinese medicine, it's a worm in winter, it's grass in summer."
Zhu Xuan nodded. "The grass is actually a kind of hyphae. It is parasitic in the larvae of a moth. In spring, the worm's internal organs are eroded by fungi. At this time, the" grass "will come out of the head . "
Evil ... I didn't expect such a precious Chinese medicine would have such a disgusting history.
"That thing, Yu Ruyi is also the same as Cordyceps sinensis." Zhu Xuan said, "On the surface, Yu Ruyi seems to be just an ordinary jade ornament. But it is actually just a kind of monster's body that lives in it. Usually It is asleep in the jade ornament, and once touched, it will come alive and impose a vicious curse on you. "
"That is, what kind of monster?" I asked half curiously and half frightened, but Zhu Xuan shook his head.
"I don't know. When I found it, out of prudence, I never touched it directly. But even then, just approaching that kind of thing, I felt a powerful evil force emerged from it. But Since I didn't touch it directly, I didn't see the monster inside. Just hide it before it hurts more monsters or even humans. "
I nodded and asked, "What about later?"
"That's the point I want to tell you." Zhu Xuan said, "You all know, when I was in Diecui Mountain, I was in a coma for 30 years in the deep mountains, and not long after I woke up, I met you. Then I sealed the beast, met again with the nine-tailed fox, and was involved in a series of things, which led me to forget about Yu Ruyi completely. It was not until two days ago that I suddenly thought about it and went back to me Looking for a place to bury it, it turns out ... "
"Gone?" I couldn't help asking.
Zhu Xuan sighed and nodded, "Yes, that's what you guessed. The place where Tibetan jade Ruyi was destroyed was terrible, and the enchantments set up that year were all dismantled to seventy-eight, eight and eight. It's gone. "
"It's Lingxiao!" I blurted out and immediately came to the conclusion, "It must be him! He's bad again!"
Unexpectedly, Zhu Xuan frowned, asking instead: "Why are you so sure that this is the Taoist Lingxiao?"
"Do you still need to say this?" I looked at Zhuxuan inconceivably. "He has been disrupting our plans behind the scenes. He tricked Su Xiaoyu to attract evil spirits, destroy the enchantment and release the eagle owl, and even helped the owl beast to destroy It's not enough for us to doubt him if you lose it? Besides, Wen Jiubai told me, I'm afraid the thing he wants most right now is this Jade Ruyi ... "
Zhuxuan interrupted me halfway through what I said, "Wait, Wen Jiubai told you? What did he tell you?"
I looked at Zhu Xuan's face and hesitated. I'm not sure if I can tell him what happened to Wen Jiubai, but Zhu Xuan's next words made me worry.
"Just rest assured. Even if Wen Jiubai knew that you secretly told me, he would definitely come to me, not to you."
I was speechless for a while, and this reason turned out to be unthinkable.
"Okay." I grabbed my head and tried to summarize the content of the conversation between Wen Jiubai and me last night in the simplest possible language. Zhu Xuan was told about the seal of Wen Xiaobai by Ling Xiao, and what Wen Jiubai revealed about the power of Yu Ruyi.
"So you mean, Wen Jiubai told you that Ling Xiao was able to seal him because he got Yu Ruyi?" Zhu Xuan asked.
I nodded.
"And he now wants to get Yu Ruyi because he wants to use this magic weapon to kill Wen Jiubai again?" Zhu Xuan asked again.
I nodded again, "Yeah."
Then do not know why, Zhu Xuan suddenly became silent. He stared at me with those deep eyes that didn't match his appearance, and saw my hair straight.
"Why, what?" I shook the goosebumps on my body and complained, "Hurry up and say what you have to say? Don't keep staring at people like this, it's scary."
