On the corridor of Zhuoyun Xiaozhu, it is the turning point.
You are leaning against the clear water, surrounded by grass and trees, your ears are hearing the never-ending sound of gurgling water, you are surrounded by the sweet chirping of birds, and you are looking up at the hazy boundary and bright sunshine. This is always the place.
The feeling of spring is strong, but this beautiful illusion can't cover up the entanglements outside the barrier. Even Soli and Taku Aoki can't really let go of the shackles of fate, and they end up with a bleak ending.
I am still immersed in those vague memories, although I clearly know that these memories do not belong to me.
Yun Jin's injury seemed to be recovering quickly, and its low hum could be heard from behind the house. All this was very similar to the scene in the memory. Only, the man in golden armor was missing. And I was standing where he once stood.
I walked past the location and deliberately thought about the details, but found that the memory stopped at this point.
I brought Ruyuan back to Zhuoyun Xiaozhu. She was fine, she just fainted temporarily.
After I came back, I thought about it in this corridor. I don’t know when Ru Yuan had walked behind me.
"Let me tell you, it turns out this is where you live. At first I thought there was only boundless miasma in this forest."
I suddenly came to my senses, turned around, and watched Ruyuan gently stroking her hair on the temples. Looking at her now, I no longer felt very disgusted.
"That's not miasma, it's demonic energy."
She looked slightly surprised, but immediately returned to normal.
"Then why don't you see a powerful demon emerging from the forest?"
I smiled slightly and said: "If there were such powerful demons everywhere, would you still be able to come and go as freely as you did before? It would be difficult for you to deal with just me, right? The true energy of the nine-tailed fox, but
Many demons covet it extremely."
"Stop taunting me." Ruyuan turned away, then turned back, "What are your plans next? Can that jade Ruyi really be repaired?"
"I don't know what to do." I immediately became lost and had no clue.
"Then you won't go find your lover?"
I smiled bitterly: "Why bother looking for it? Once you find it, can you get rid of these entanglements?"
"Let me tell you, this matter has nothing to do with you, so why bother with it."
"Yeah, it has nothing to do with me..." I repeated Ruyuan's words indifferently, "but I always feel that it has a lot to do with me... I don't know what's going on, but there is always an inexplicable power that keeps me going.
Go ahead and don’t allow me to refuse.”
Guichen and Hidden Wind were destined to resurrect Cangli with the Sword of Cang Rong, but if I lost the Sword of Cang Rong, there would be no way to restrain the poison of desire in me. However, since I decided to deal with that monster, I
Without the hope of being able to escape, why bother running around and working hard to find a solution to the poison of lust? Or maybe I just hope that Cang Li can be resurrected? But why should I hope that he can be resurrected? There seems to be a voice in my heart.
It constantly reminds me that Cang Li and I are inextricably entangled. Could it be that to him... what does Meng Yunzhong mean to me?...
I hurriedly pulled back the chaotic reverie, and then I thought, since I took over the fragment of Yu Ruyi from Yinfeng that day, let's go on.
"Don't you know a lot of secrets? Then do you know the secret of Yu Ruyi?"
Faced with my sudden question, Ruyuan touched her lips with her index finger, thought about it carefully and then said to me: "I really don't know about this. It seems that there is no more information about it in the memory left by my mother.
I only know that it is a sacred object of our nine-tailed fox clan, and there is an illusion in it. My sister said that day that it can detoxify lust, and I was really surprised. Maybe no one else knows about it except the clan leader."
"The leader of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan..."
I lowered my head and pondered for a moment, and suddenly I suddenly realized: "Then just go find your clan leader? Maybe he can repair this jade Ruyi!"
"Looking for the clan leader?" Ruyuan was really frightened at this moment.
"Yes. Do you know the stronghold of the Nine-tailed Fox Clan?"
"Stronghold..." Ruyuan looked at me, still in disbelief.
But she immediately shook her head and said to me quite solemnly: "No way! I can't take you there... I stole the secret technique. According to the clan rules, I am bound to die. I don't want to throw myself into a trap."
"
"Have you ever thought about why you stole the secret technique but no one from your tribe came to arrest you?"
"That's because... they can't get out at all."
At this moment, I was a little surprised.
"Can't get out? What do you mean?"
"This is a long story. Have you heard of the Wushan Goddess? According to legend, the Wushan Goddess is the daughter of the ancient god Shennong. Her name is Yao Ji. She is extremely beautiful, but hates evil. She especially likes mortals, so she travels around the world.
One day, Yao Ji came to Wushan, and happened to encounter an evil dragon that disturbed the people around Wushan and complained. Yao Ji was furious, so she killed the evil dragon with the jade hairpin given to her by Shennong, but she didn't want the evil dragon to linger after its death.
It scattered and turned into a steep and steep mountain with twelve dangerous peaks towering in the clouds, as if provoking the gods to vent its anger. Moreover, its remaining evil spiritual power still harmed the mortals around Wushan. So
, Yao Ji simply stayed in Wushan and used her own magical power to suppress the evil dragon until the evil dragon's spiritual power was exhausted and could no longer harm the world.
"It is said that Yao Ji met Dayu in Wushan and had a secret love for him. However, Dayu was focused on controlling the water and had no interest in Yao Ji. Later, Yao Ji gave Dayu the "Huang Ling Treasure Scroll" to help him split Wushan and divert water into the mountain.
Yangtze River. But Dayu finally decided to leave. So Yaoji missed Dayu all day long, often standing on the highest peak of Wushan and looking into the distance, heading in the direction where Dayu left, as if she was looking at Dayu from a distance again.
The same. Later, the goddess of Wushan died in depression, her fragrance disappeared, and she died unmarried. Finally, she was immersed in the longing for Dayu forever. Shennong buried her in Wushan, and also used his divine power to keep Yao Ji standing watch.
The peak of the mountain was shaped into the Goddess Peak to commemorate my beloved daughter.
"After the death of the Wushan goddess, her spirit turned into grass, which was actually Ganoderma lucidum, and the remaining spiritual energy turned into Yao grass, which can cure all kinds of diseases and prolong life. I guess it is what we often call the resurrection grass. So it is near her tomb.
There are many immortal mushrooms and rejuvenating grasses. These immortal grasses are protected by her remaining spiritual power and become the forbidden area of Ganoderma lucidum. Therefore, the forbidden area of Ganoderma lucidum is where the tomb of the Wushan Goddess is located.
"Years ago, the Yunyu Forest refused to take in the Nine-tailed Fox Clan, so they found the Ganoderma Forbidden Area and hid there. They were at peace with each other, but the Nine-tailed Fox Tribe somehow offended the goddess Yin Ling, so the Ganoderma Forbidden Area was established
Suddenly surrounded by a powerful barrier, the Nine-tailed Fox clan was trapped near the goddess's tomb, and could no longer get out of the restricted area of Ganoderma lucidum. As for the barrier, it only appeared after my mother was expelled from the clan.
…”
"Then how did you come out?" After listening to the story of the Wushan Goddess, I had many questions or guesses in my mind.
"Me? I don't know, I just came out like this. After I stole the secret technique, I was afraid of being discovered by my tribe, so I ran out of the Ganoderma forbidden area. I always thought that this rumor was false. But when I came out, there was indeed no trace.
The clansmen are chasing me." Ruyuan told it as if nothing had happened, but it made me confused.
"Could it be that the Wushan Goddess' barrier has no effect on you alone?"
"Maybe it's because I haven't been in the ethnic group since I was a child. Maybe the goddess no longer regards me as a member of this ethnic group." Ruyuan smiled charmingly and proudly.
"In this case, you can still take me there." I stopped my endless speculation, turned to look at Ruyuan, and smiled calmly.
Ruyuan frowned slightly and pouted: "Are you really going?"
"At this moment, there is no other way but to try."
Ruyuan lowered his head and was silent for a moment, then finally raised his head and said in embarrassment: "Forget it, just go. They can't chase you out anyway, as long as you don't get caught."
"Have you thought about it?" I paused and imitated her previous tone and continued, "Let me tell you, this matter has nothing to do with you, so why bother? Just take your divine sword and hide in the
It’s good to live peacefully here. It’s best to bring your lover here and stay together, how comfortable is it?”
She looked at me meaningfully, with a mocking look on her face.
"Double-staying and dual-dwelling? Then you must be more capable. Now help me detoxify the poison you have given! Otherwise, how can you be a double-staying and dual-dwelling?" I glanced at her pretending to be resentful.
"You say that? Do you still miss that day... the feeling of helping him detoxify?" She didn't mind at all and said to me even more sinisterly.
I moved her away, but my originally uneasy mood suddenly seemed to relax a lot.
But then, she turned around again and said slightly proudly: "Speaking of it, our nine-tailed fox clan is also related to the Wushan Goddess. I heard that the jasper hairpin, the magic weapon used by the Goddess to kill evil dragons, was once secretly used.
By mistake, it was transferred to the hands of the original leader of Qingqiu Kingdom, who was the former patriarch of our Nine-tailed Fox Clan. After that, the Nine-tailed Fox Clan regarded it as a sacred object and was able to control its extremely powerful power. In this way, Yu Ruyi is also the Nine-tailed Fox Clan.
Could the sacred object of the Tail Fox Clan have any connection with the jade hairpin?"
I listened intently to what she said, and I had a lot of guesses in my mind, but I couldn't be sure. But after Ruyuan reminded me, I felt a little more hopeful.
"Could it be that the goddess found out that you had stolen her hairpin and trapped the nine-tailed fox clan in Wushan?" I deliberately emphasized the word "stealing".
"Bah! Why are you stealing? It is said that a demon hunter brought him to Qingqiu Country. It was that person who eventually caused the destruction of Qingqiu Country, and the Nine-tailed Fox clan lost their home and wandered around. Huh!" Speaking of catching.
The demon Ruyuan seems to be very angry. But I know that her mood at the moment must be more contradictory, and the reason for the contradiction is naturally her father who is a demon hunter.
"Retribution for retaliation...Why does hatred always last so long? Even descendants who have nothing to do with it will remember it..." I sighed to myself, but it was more like saying it to myself.
.
"Monsters don't understand the complex thinking of mortals. I only know that if you do evil, you have to bear the consequences. The demon hunter harmed the entire nine-tailed fox clan, so he should bear the consequences. It's a pity that he doesn't live long enough.
If it's short, then it can only be attributed to his descendants."
Ruyuan didn't seem to understand what she meant, but to her, karma and retribution seemed to be very simple. Demons don't have the complicated thinking of mortals, so naturally they don't need to have so many worries. What about me? Who am I?
?Am I not the same demon as her?
"Okay, what are you talking about that is useless? When will you take me there?" I put aside the endless thoughts that started to flood again, and asked.
"It's all up to you." Ruyuan said lightly.
"Let's do it tomorrow."
I only heard a low roar coming from behind the house, and I smiled lightly. Maybe Yun Jin knew that this trip would be unpredictable again.
