Urban Tales of Demons and Spirits

"Of course I don't think so!" I also anxiously, "I" stood up, "I came to warn you and make you more careful! That monster is inside Diecui Mountain!"

"Do you think I will believe it?" Zhu Xuan bit his lip and said, "You and I, we are never the same kind of people.? Eight Chinese one Chinese W? W? W㈠.? 8? 1? W?.? ＣＯＯＭＭ "

After speaking, Zhu Xuan stood up and went back to the depths of the forest without looking back.

"Hey! Zhuxuan!" I chased up, but without a few steps, Zhuxuan's shadow disappeared and disappeared into the depths of the forest.

———

"I don't know until now whether he really doubted me. But I have no chance to know again." Zhu Xuan lowered his head.

"What's going on?" Shi Yitong asked.

"It's a beast." Zhuxuan said, "It's the huge white beak that you see today. It destroyed the village at the foot of Diecui Mountain, the awkward village."

"Then, the people in the village ..." Su Xiaoying covered his mouth.

Zhu Xuan nodded, "Many people are dead. Old people, children, and many mature men. I searched frantically in the ruins of the village and found my wife and children who were dying, but no corpse was found."

"So he's not dead?" I asked.

Zhu Xuan nodded. "Soon, I met a priest near the ruins. I don't know why he was there. He said he was also looking for the bones of a dead relative, but I never saw him. ... then he told me ... "

"Wait, Taoist?" I interrupted Zhu Xuan and asked, "You said you met a Taoist?"

Shi Yitong and Su Xiaoyi also cast their doubtful eyes on me.

"Yeah, a Taoist."

"Is he wearing a robe?" Su Xiaozhen asked.

"Of course, otherwise how would I know he was a Taoist?" Zhu Xuan somehow.

It seems that the Taoist priest in Zhuxuankou is probably the "that Taoist" hidden in the mist.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhuxuan watched our response puzzled.

"Oh, it's nothing, let's continue." I smiled apologetically. "You just said, what did the Taoist tell you?"

"He told me that there are some strong men and men in the village who have not died yet. They formed a small team and vowed to avenge the family and go up the mountain to find the monster." Zhu Xuan said.

"Is there 烨 there?"

"I didn't find the uncle's body in the ruins, so I guess he survived. I quickly ran to the mountain and saw ..." Zhu Xuan paused, took a deep breath, and seemed to be adjusting his mood.

"I saw the mountains and the mountains, all blood and corpses, almost paving the way. Then at the top of that **** land, I saw the beast."

"However, you have said that the beasts do not hate humans." At this time, Su Xiaolu interposed and said, "You said that they hurt humans because ..."

"It's because of me. That's a long story," Zhu Xuan said. "The original beast was not in Yancheng. It was my fault that it came to Diecui Mountain, and it was after me."

"So, does the beast have any hatred against you ... against Bai Ze?" Shi Yitong asked.

"Almost. It's jealous of me," Zhu Xuan sighed. "You may notice that the beast and my prototype are actually very similar."

Yes, they are all white giants, but the beasts have no wings, and they have a fierce look.

"From the origin, the beast and I are homologous. According to your human beings, it is ... we are twins." Zhu Xuan said seriously.

"What?" The three of us looked at Zhuxuan in surprise.

"We were born in one place, but grew up in different environments. I love all things in the world, I love humans, learn and understand the laws of the world, and know the wisdom of the universe. But the beast, it just wants to become stronger and stronger, what it wants You get powerful power without paying, so it didn't take long for it to fall into the **** of anger, which is '嗔', and was finally classified as one of the five major poisons. During the pre-Emperor period, the beast was sealed by the first emperor and handed over to the West The White Tiger guards. However, times have changed, and when people have gradually forgotten our existence, it escapes and takes me all the way to the foot of the mountain. "

Zhu Xuan lowered his eyes.

"For so many years, I have stayed on Diecui Mountain, and there is no trace of it. The beast is meticulous and sly. It has been lurking under my eyelids for several years, and I have not even noticed it. When I am now It has had irreversible consequences. "

"What happened then?" Shi Yitong asked. "What happened to the puppet you said?"

"By the time I hurried over, I was seeing the slugs and slugs confronting each other. All of his companions had fallen, and he had a spear all over his body with a spear in his hand."

———

"Come! Come here if you have one, you stupid big white bird!" I clenched my javelin tightly. "You eat all my family, my father, my wife and my children, they It ’s not enough to fill your belly! Come on, eat me! "

"Oh!" Zhu Xuan chased after, shouting loudly to the back of his beloved.

Stuck for a moment, then looked back, "Azhu?"

"Come back! You stare back at it and it won't attack you!" Zhu Xuan shouted, "Hurry up! I'll be here, put down your spear, or it will eat you. of!"

Looking at Zhu Xuan for a moment, tears slipped from his eyes, he shook his head gently.

"Sorry, Azhu! But I swear that I will take revenge on my family. I can't escape."

"But you can't defeat that big guy, let me come!" Zhu Xuan shrieked.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry for you, Azhu! You are the only person I have ever loved in my life, you really are!" I raised the spear in my hands and burst into tears. ... "

I turned my head and looked at the beast. The beast's neck was raised high, its huge beak was widened, and it screamed while attacking.

"Let's die!" I growled loudly as I raised my spear and rushed towards the Beast.

However, the spear did not pass through the scorpion's hard body. Instead, it struck its feathers and fell to the ground. The angered maggot opened its mouth wide, tearing maggot's body in half.

——————————————

"I watched him be ripped by the beast." Zhu Xuan said calmly. "In the end, he died in front of me."

There was a silence in the room and none of us knew what to say. But Su Xiaoyi couldn't help asking.

"So ... what later?"

"Later, I couldn't hold back my grief, turned it into a prototype, and waged a deadly fight with Moonkin. I bet on my own life, but Moonkin swallowed a lot of villagers and got more power than before. We I wrestled in the depths of Diecuishan for three days and three nights. Fortunately, I still outperformed it, and in the end I won, and the beast fell aside.

Zhuxuan's fingers rubbed the quilt covering his body. "At the time, I had two choices. I could end the life of the beast with the last strength. I knew this was my responsibility. I should do so to keep more people. Life. But ... I chose another approach at the time. "

"What is it?"

"With my last remaining strength, I saved my soul."

"Is this OK?" Shi Yitong said in surprise.

Zhu Xuan nodded, "Yes. Human souls will still wander around the body seven days after death and the like, and they will find their destination after seven days. Some enter the underworld, then enter the reincarnation, and some are lost. I wandered around the world. I was lucky to find my uncle's soul very quickly. I only appeared then, even though the ghost was so confused, I did n’t even know who he was, but he was in the war, always Stubbornly grabbed my fur and refused to let go. So I saved my uncle's soul with my last strength. His body is no longer usable, but if he is very, very lucky, if he can find a container that is healthy enough, he will Can continue to live. "

"So it was ..." I murmured, "No wonder you would recognize Shi Yitong as a puppet, because you don't know what the puppet looks like now."

"So, is he alive?" Su Xiaoying asked hopefully.

"I don't know ..." Zhu Xuan whispered, "I really don't know. But I really hope he survives."

"What about that man-eating monster?" Shi Yitong asked, "You said you defeated it, but didn't give it a final blow?"

Zhu Xuan nodded, "Yeah. After saving my uncle's soul, I passed out. I don't know how long after that, I've been lethargic in the deep forest until I opened my eyes, just a week ago. "

"So you slept for thirty years?" Shi Yitong said in surprise.

"Don't be so surprised, Son of Man." Zhu Xuan took a look at Shi Yitong and said lightly, "Time is fleeting to us. Thirty years may be a long time for human beings, but right In my case, it's just a nap. "

Eternal time and short life.

The love between Zhuxuan and Xun is almost like a lotus flower, extremely beautiful and extremely short-lived.

"So, that is to say, you woke up from a lethargy a week ago. That is to say, you don't know what is going on now with the return of the beast?" Su Xiaoying asked.

"After I woke up, I went to Longning Temple and asked about the beast. The monks in Longning Temple have also changed a group of people, but fortunately, I know the present host of Longning Temple. He told me The Moon Beast was sealed by a Taoist priest thirty years ago, so it has not appeared for a long time to disrupt everyone's lives. "

"A Taoist? A Taoist again?" The three of us looked at each other and frowned.
