Chapter three hundred and eighty second memories of the past
Chen Hao walked back and forth in the narrow room like an angry lion, and he took every step, and was afraid of stepping into a hole on the ground. "Yelin Town, Yelin Town... What does Qu Xugu mean?"
Because of a sentence from the Great Talisman Master before his death, the past many years ago appeared alive in front of Mu Xingqiu and Shen Hao.
Yelin Town was invaded by the demon seeds, and Taoist Pangshan and Long Binhui destroyed the demon seeds, but the people in the town disappeared inexplicably. Qu Xungu is one of the participants in the Demon Elimination.
The teenagers in Yelin Town were initially resentful of the disappearance of their relatives and often woke up from nightmares. Later, Fangfang found some records in the book, indicating that the disappearance caused by the demon seed has not been once, and no exact cause has been found so far. At no cost, the teenagers could only suppress their worries in their hearts.
After entering the Yangshen Peak, the teenagers began to embark on a formal path of practice. No one told them that they had to forget the old things, but in order to concentrate on thinking, they had to abandon the miscellaneous thoughts in their minds. They were temporary at the beginning, but gradually became habits.
They did not forget their relatives in Yelin Town. Like all Taoist priests, they automatically learned to carefully collect their thoughts and not let them interfere with their daily practice. However, once their thoughts are exposed again, they have amazing power, which is a hundred times stronger than keeping them in their hearts all the time. Even the Taoist priests cannot resist them.
"Qu Xungui had been to Yelin Town back then, and he must have known something." Chen Hao clenched his fists, his slender eyes showed a fierce intention of not seeing each other for a long time. He stared at Mu Xingqiu, as if he wanted to transfer his anger that had nowhere to vent to him.
Mu Xingqiu, who is also from Yelin Town, seemed too calm in Shen Hao's eyes. He had not even passed the love disaster, but his inner alchemy was only at the seventh level of inhalation, but he was more likely to accept accidents than Taoist Maestro Fo Xia.
"I will check it out." Compared to anger, Mu Xingqiu was more willing to find a way to solve the suspense left by Qu Xungu. "He deliberately said half of the sentence, and the purpose was this. He wanted me to investigate Pang Shan, Long Bin and Xi Jieguo, and let me take revenge on his enemies for him."
Yelin Town belongs to Xijie Country, and Pang Shan and Longbin will be responsible for blocking the demon seeds. If the residents of Yelin Town disappear, there is another hidden truth. The problem must be with these three.
Yang Qingyin next to him hurriedly said: "It has nothing to do with Pang Shan. I can guarantee... the Taoist sect only needs to eliminate the demon seeds in the land of the demons, and after entering Xijie Country, Gui Longbin will be responsible."
"Yelin Town is located on the border and the situation is quite special. At that time, a Taoist priest Pangshan was searching for demon seeds in Yelin Town." Mu Xingqiu got an explanation from Pangshan Grandmaster Ning Qiwei: The Five Elements Mage Li Yuechi discovered a lonely demon seed. He followed him all the way to Yelin Town. It was this demon seed that after being severely damaged, it was the soul of the bald man. But Li Yuechi did not know about the invasion of a large number of demon seeds.
"It's impossible that Pangshan hid the residents of Yelin Town. What did Taoist priests want a group of mortals to do? It's meaningless." Although Yang Qingyin also decided to withdraw from the Taoist throne, she still unconsciously defended Pangshan.
"Of course it's not Pang Shan. After staying for so long, how could we not believe Pang Shan?" Chen Hao's tone was irritable, "It's not Xijie Country. Xin Youtao was a prince no matter what. He was sent to Yelin Town to arrest people. He didn't know about the invasion of the demon seeds. It must be Long Bin, remember? Qu Xungui wanted to take us away at that time. If the master hadn't discovered in time that we had a Taoist root, our fate would be the same as others. He is Zuo Fu's great talisman master, why did he come to catch a few children in person? There must be a reason, why did I not expect it?"
Chen Hao knocked heavily on his forehead and suddenly said in confusion: "Xiaoqiu, you always think the most, and you have contacted Qu Xungu more often. Have you never doubted him? Aren't you able to recite the illusion of the mind? Can you detect the thoughts of mortals at will? Or do you know something but refuse to tell me?"
Mu Xingqiu shook his head, "The illusion of the mind is not as powerful as you imagined. Qu Xungu is a great talisman master. He has his own way to block my illusion. He has indeed given me a few memories, all of which have been carefully cut and have nothing to do with Yelin Town. Now is the most chaotic period within Longbin Society..."
Anxiety and anger are the two emotions that are most difficult to control. Chen Hao was affected by both at the same time and could no longer bear it. He interrupted Mu Xingqiu stiffly, "Do you know you are not actually a real Yelin Town, right?"
Mu Xingqiu closed his mouth and his eyes became cold.
"Chen Hao, what are you talking about?" Xiao Qingtao asked in surprise.
"I had only had a vague impression of some things, but my memory has gradually become clear over the past few years." The benefits of improving practice are reflected in all aspects. Even some words I heard accidentally in my childhood returned to my mind. Chen Hao never thought about mentioning this matter, but at this time he couldn't help it, "You are the orphans that your father picked up from the woods, and they are not from Yelin Town at all."
Because of practicing the illusion of mind, Mu Xingqiu's memory is clearer than Chen Hao: his father always said in a joking tone that he was a wild child he picked up, and he rarely cared about it. When he registered his name in Pangshan's disciple book, he proudly claimed to be born in the woods.
Memories continue to go forward, and ordinary people will never remember the baby, but Mu Xingqiu regained a vague impression. The soft grass, verdant trees, the blue sky, and the chirping of insects and birds all came back, and then a resolute and vicissitudes of face. This was the first time his father Lao Qiu appeared. At that time, he was still young, and wrinkles had appeared in the corners of his eyes due to years of hard work.
The memories that went further were gone, and few Taoist priests could remember clearly the situation in their mother's belly like Zuo Liuying.
Yang Qingyin and Xiao Qingtao looked at Mu Xingqiu sympathetically. It was no big deal to be an orphan. Tao Tong didn't care about this, but no one wanted to be pointed out in public.
Mu Xingqiu lowered his eyes, and after a while he said, "My father never treated me as an adopted son. I owe him a kindness. If he and my brother are still alive, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I will find them back."
The fierce light in Chen Hao's eyes quickly disappeared, just like all impulsive behaviors. As soon as he said that, he began to regret it, "I'm sorry, I didn't mention it on purpose... I'm sorry, Yelin Town is proud of Mu Xingqiu, and so do I."
Someone knocked on the door outside, and Mu Xingqiu nodded to Chen Hao and said, "Come in."
Talisman Liu Ding walked in and noticed that the atmosphere in the room was different. He said carefully: "Disturbate everyone, we have taken Qu Xungu's corpse away."
"You are sure that's Qu Xugu. He personally admitted that he colluded with the demon clan. Maybe he learned some weird magic to get out of here." Yang Qingyin asked.
"It's certain that Qu Xungu's Fire Sacrifice Seal has penetrated into the bones and can still be identified."
Seeing that no one was talking, Liu Ding exited the room.
"When Xin Youtao comes, see what he knows. After the matter is over, you and I will go to see the ruler of the Longbin Society." Mu Xingqiu said to Chen Hao.
The Qinhuang coup was a complete victory. The Qu family and their supporters were either killed or surrendered, but the matter did not end immediately. The scattered fires and battles did not end until dawn. Then the whole city was searched. The original fence faction was eager to make contributions at this time, and expanded the scope of the arrest on its own and extended the time of the coup.
The gym area is still not affected. That afternoon, Prince Xijie Kingdom and the envoy of Longbin meeting ink control Xin Youtao came to visit Pangshan Gymnasium again.
He came alone, not much like before, with a pale face and weak appearance, as if a gust of wind could blow him away. However, when he smiled at Taoist Pang Shan who was guarding the gate, he returned to his familiar appearance.
When he walked into the small study, Xin Youtao's first person to see was not Mu Xingqiu, who saved his life, nor was his best friend Chen Hao, in the late stage of Pangshan, but Xiao Qingtao, who stood in the corner with a cold expression. "I don't know you are here too. Sorry, I have been dreaming these days, and it seems easier to say goodbye to you in my dream."
Xiao Qingtao still didn't speak, and his eyes refused to look at Xin Youtao, but his expression was less cold.
Chen Hao was still wary, "Are you really Xin Youtao? Do you know what happened these days? Do you still remember how many things happened in the past."
Xin Youtao smiled tiredly, "I think I've been hit by some kind of spell and been sleeping all the time. It's so embarrassing. I've reached the realm of Gu Xia, but I've been plotted against. The past... I can forget everything else, but I will never forget the fact that you beat me hard in the woods, and I will never forget the nickname you gave me."
Chen Hao smiled, believing that this is the "Dark Saner" he knew.
Xin Youtao walked up to Mu Xingqiu, "I don't quite understand what happened, but my sister told me to come to see you today, so I guess I owe you another favor."
"It's good that you know." Mu Xingqiu also smiled.
Xin Youtao sat on the chair and rushed to Yang Qingyin who had been staring at him, saying, "I admit that I'm afraid of you, it's okay to do this. If you stare at me like this, I'm afraid I'll faint again."
Yang Qingyin snorted and said in a low voice: "This Xin Youtao is not as good as the one before."
Xin Youtao was sleeping for more than a month. After waking up, he was told that Qu Xungu was secretly doing evil. He believed it. When he saw the former fellow Taoist Pang Shan, he was very happy and excited, but his inner elixir was still stagnant and could not cast spells. He talked more and more. He always wanted Xiao Qingtao to join the conversation, but he never got what he wanted.
Mu Xingqiu mentioned Qu Xungui's words before his death. Xin Youtao was very surprised, "When I was in Xijieguo, I had never heard of the secrets in Yelin Town. After I arrived in Huangjing, Longbin would hide anything from me, and I had never heard of people who were missing because of the demon seeds to be found again."
Xin Youtao actually didn't know much about the Longbin Society and could not provide clues. Mu Xingqiu knew that the only thing that could explain the matter clearly was the seven soul-changers. He had now identified one emperor Fu Meng, and six others were hiding in which body.
"Who will succeed as the chief talisman master after Guan Chengjiang's death?" Mu Xingqiu asked.
Xin Youtao was slightly stunned and did not follow Mu Xingqiu's idea. "The chief was seriously ill. If he died, his normal successor should be Qu Xungu. It is impossible now. Among the remaining great talisman masters, Qu Dang had no hope... If I had to guess, Liang Shiji, who ranked last, might be the most promising."
Mu Xingqiu decided to find all seven soul-changing people. Only in this way can they tell the truth. Now, he already knows two.
