"Don't be surprised." The fox demon still smiled softly and looked at me, "I will fulfill my promise now and tell you a secret: your mother is not dead."
My thoughts were dragged back by her words, and I looked at her in surprise. All my thoughts and memories were disturbed by her words, but she did not continue speaking, but turned around.
And facing You Ruojun, he said quietly:
"However, we can also look at another secret now, the secret about me and her." The fox demon turned his head softly and faced You Ruojun, but his eyes were as sharp as a sword.
You Ruojun looked around confusedly, his whole body was shaken, and he suddenly became panicked.
Meng Yunzhong looked at her strange behavior and seemed to have guessed something.
"This woman's secret room is not in Mengjun Villa at all, but here...the soil that accumulates strange spiritual power in Mengjun Villa actually comes from here."
I also guessed this. But I really didn't expect that You Ruojun would hide his secret here.
"Do you still remember that your mother once had a Jade Ruyi that could transform into another dimension? In fact, this Jade Ruyi was originally a treasure of the Nine-tailed Fox clan. They dedicated it to your mother in order to stay in the Yuyu Forest.
."
I tried hard to recall that there was indeed such a thing, but even though the Nine-tailed Fox Clan offered the treasure, my mother still didn't agree to take them in.
"Many years ago, a demon hunter broke into this place without authorization, saying that he wanted to use the demon-suppressing stone to save his sweetheart..."
"Shut up!" You Ruojun yelled at the top of his lungs, not knowing where he got the strength.
The fox demon smiled coldly, ignored it, and continued:
"The forest owner of the Yuyu Forest promised to help her save people and let the dead man be reborn. However, although he was spared the pain of reincarnation, he still had to turn into a baby and grow up again. And in the Yuyu Forest,
She also found a treasure in this abandoned tree house, so she hid it quietly."
"Stop talking..." You Ruojun didn't know why, but his face was full of tears and he couldn't cry.
"A woman in her prime brings a baby who is less than one year old, and her origins are unknown. It is unknown how much criticism and contempt she has endured. However, only she herself knows that her love for the child is far from maternal.
of love.
"Seeing the child growing up day by day, gradually taking on the appearance of the past, what do you think this woman would think? Is she just looking at the person she loves and calling her mother over and over again? It's no wonder that this woman is too infatuated.
.She is not willing to accept it! She has gone through so much trouble to save her beloved, but she is getting older and cannot be with him openly. It is really heartbreaking. Oh, it is really a pity..."
As You Ruojun listened, she broke free from Meng Yunzhong's arms. Suddenly her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground. But she still held herself up and crawled towards the fox demon with difficulty. Little did she know that when she broke free,
In an instant, Meng Yunzhong's arms also relaxed.
His face was filled with sadness, as if he didn't need to listen anymore to know that the outcome would not make anyone feel better.
But the fox demon still didn't stop.
"Thinking, thinking...she finally thought of a way. Don't forget, she is a demon hunter and has spiritual power.
"Moreover, she also knows a kind of magic that can make people rejuvenate and regain their youth. In this way, wouldn't she be able to be with the one she loves? She no longer has to look in the mirror every day and lament her aging appearance.
No longer do you have to listen to your loved ones talking to you in front of or behind your mother every day, and you become your own mother.
"It's just that if you want to cast this kind of evil spell, you have to pay a price. If you want to return to your youth, you have to use another kind of power, that is, the devil's energy. Not only that, but you also have to force her to use the body of the demon hunter.
The magic weapon must be forced out of the body to make room in the body to accommodate the evil energy. Therefore, she created a fake death, abandoned her nominal "son", and then cast this evil spell on herself.
As for where the demonic energy came from, it must be thanks to the young master of Fu Yuan's outer mansion. He married a snake demon who raised monsters as his wife. Therefore, the demonic energy and the true energy of the demons became the conditions for their constant exchange.
"Hey, a demon hunter doesn't hesitate to associate with evil demons. However, even if she has to sacrifice her life for the love she has been obsessed with for decades, I'm afraid she is not unwilling."
"Demon girl! I'll kill you!" You Ruojun climbed up to the fox demon with difficulty, but the fox demon lowered his head and smiled seductively at her, and instantly turned invisible, but her voice was still filling the surroundings.
"This kind of evil spell consumes a lot of spiritual power and lifespan. Therefore, although this woman has regained her youth, she has lost an unknown number of years. So, she began to think about how to get along with her lover if she died like this.
Isn’t the time of meeting too short? So, she came up with another way, that is: transfer the life span of others to herself..."
For some reason, when the fox demon said this, there was a bit of coldness in his voice. The brief silence and silence made the surrounding atmosphere even weirder.
"You damn fox demon! I must kill you!" You Ruojun shouted as if he was using his last strength.
"You people have always been 'fox monsters'. Even though 'fox monster' is called so unpleasantly, I also have a name."
The fox demon appeared in front of us again, with the usual smile on his lips, and his slender fingers were still stroking his hair.
"Don't you have anything to ask me?" She walked slowly to Meng Yunzhong and leaned against him softly, as if she was about to fall on Meng Yunzhong. "For example, who is that demon hunter? She
Who is your sweetheart?"
Meng Yunzhong turned his head suddenly and met the fox demon's provocative eyes.
"Ouch, don't look at me so fiercely, I haven't finished telling my story yet."
The fox demon pushed coquettishly, and Meng Yunzhong was already a few feet away.
"Do you want to see what is hidden in the space where the precious jade is transformed into Ruyi? Yinluo, don't forget the deal I made with you. I asked you to help me perform the fate technique just to find what you saw before.
That person who is exactly like me, as long as you help me find that person, I will tell you all the secrets."
"You mean, the person you are looking for is in the illusion of Yu Ruyi?"
The fox demon chuckled: "Why don't you take a look inside the tree house?"
I looked at the fox demon and then at Meng Yunzhong. He seemed to be completely trapped in thoughts that he couldn't sort out. Or maybe it wasn't that he couldn't sort it out, but that he was unwilling to sort it out.
I followed the fox demon's gaze and walked towards the wooden house, but You Ruojun's voice came from behind me. Her strength seemed to have recovered a little, and she stood up reluctantly, stretching out a hand as if she wanted to hold me. And she
In his eyes, there was no anger as before, but pleading and endless sadness.
"do not go……"
A weak plea, but it seemed to contain all her thoughts. I knew that if I went in, her whole person and her whole mind would completely collapse. There was a trace of intolerance. After all, the woman in this story was just too much. Dedicated, too persistent, and too desperate, I was even a little moved by it. It's a pity that the result of this relationship may only end in tragedy.
"Go! Don't you want to know more secrets?" the fox demon urged.
"Yinluo, let me go."
After being silent for a long time, Meng Yunzhong strode to my side and said these words firmly.
At that moment, I saw that all of You Ruojun's will completely collapsed. The moment she turned her head, she almost fell down. But Meng Yunzhong just looked at her, the look in his eyes was too complicated. But just this look made You Ruojun Ruojun lost all her strength, her whole body went limp and fell down again, but this time, it was not just her body that fell.
Meng Yunzhong still supported her, but it was so forced and awkward, as if he was no longer supporting a young woman, but his elderly mother.
The fox demon watched with great interest. Perhaps this scene was what she really wanted to see.
"You haven't told me yet, who is the fox demon in Yu Ruyi who is almost exactly the same as you?" I asked lightly.
The fox demon smiled: "Don't you know it if you bring her out?"
Suddenly, there was a faint noise on the opposite side of the tree house, and the fox demon looked calm, as if she had already known that someone would come.
"The one Yu Ruyi is interested in is her twin sister."
When he heard the sound, he turned out to be the demon hunter with a face full of vicissitudes of life - Ji Shu.
At this time, the beard on his face became more like withered grass, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be deeper. The gloom in this gloomy forest further showed his desolation and helplessness.
I secretly thought that there is one more secret that I can learn today.
We each stood in our respective positions. After a brief confrontation, the fox demon twisted his waist and walked to my side, whispering softly: "Don't you want to detoxify? Isn't there a ready-made demon hunter?"
Jishu looked at the fox demon's actions and was a little confused. But then when he saw Meng Yunzhong and You Ruojun paralyzed on top of him, he was surprised again.
"You are indeed Lian'er!"
With his heavy tone, everyone's focus returned to You Ruojun again.
You Ruojun also reluctantly raised her head and looked at Jishu not far away. Immediately, her somewhat pale face showed the same expression as Jishu.
"father……"
This weak call, this brief name, was enough to make everyone freeze in place. Even the fox demon who was preparing to watch the show opened his eyes slightly and looked at Ji Shu in surprise. .
"Lian'er..." Ji Shu walked over slowly, but sighed heavily.
"Hey...silly daughter, why are you doing this? Such a forced relationship will never end well."
Jishu walked up to You Ruojun and looked at her helplessly. You Ruojun removed his hand from Meng Yunzhong's arm and slowly reached out to the vicissitudes of man in front of her. When their hands touched together, I saw Ji Shu Shu's eyes became hazy, and a few more tears appeared on You Ruojun's face.
"What did you say? She is your daughter?" The fox demon showed a few wrinkles on its fair forehead, staring at Ji Shu, "Huh, no wonder, like father, like daughter." The fox demon said bitterly. , but I don’t know why, but I always feel that there is something else in the fox demon’s expression.
"Why do you treat your sister like this?"
Another heavy blow, I could hardly tell whether the appearance of Ji Shu was an illusion or not.
The fox demon pouted, snorted softly, and turned away.
