MTL - After Rebirth, I Returned to Miaojiang to Inherit My Family Business-Chapter 240
"It falls short, haha, it falls short."
After a long silence, Tong Fuyuan smiled softly, unlike before, he seemed to have calmed down, but the words were piercingly cold in the bottom of his heart, like a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, which made people instinctively creepy.
"Unfortunately, we were unable to reach a consensus."
His voice became softer and softer, like a dream bubble, and finally returned to ethereal nothingness.
"The Celestial Clan will stand and the Human Clan will perish. This is an irreversible future. I sincerely hope that you can recover your memory as soon as possible, and I will use my own method to revitalize the Celestial Clan."
"In the near future, we will meet at the end of the journey."
With a soft click, the antler mask fell to the ground and onto the stacked sacrificial robes. And Tong Fuyuan dissipated out of thin air as if turning into air, leaving only messy sacrificial robes in place. He really wasn't human, or even of any known species in the world.
Wu Rong didn't stop him, and he couldn't stop him for the time being. He rejected that memory, which is also equivalent to the power contained in the memory. What's more, the Tiankeng of Laomiao Cave was already on the verge of being broken due to the incident just now, and it wailed sharply. The destructive annihilating power generated when the tiankeng shatters can easily crush any capable person, and the endless cracks and broken spaces make it impossible to find a way out.
But with a scepter in hand, it is still easy to leave the tiankeng and return to reality safely.
"king!"
"Wu Rong!"
"Brother Rong!"
The dizziness of crossing the space has not completely dissipated, and the mixed cries of anxiety, worry and surprise have already rang beside him. Wu Rong could tell that it was Ling Yun Hongxiu and the others, and besides that, he vaguely saw a familiar figure in the front.
It's him... back.
The body sends out a signal of exhaustion, and the soul is also painful. Amidst the exclamation, Wu Rong passed out in peace. Lethargy is a good way to heal the uncoordinated soul and body. The stronger the person, the stronger the self-healing ability. A good rest can sometimes beat all medicines. It may be that I have seen too many memory pictures before, and even the most powerful soul needs to rest.
Wu Rong, who was in a coma this time, didn't see any other memory images. He slept soundly and without dreams. When he woke up, he felt refreshed and refreshed.
Everything is fine except the lower body is still snake tail.
"You finally woke up."
Wu Rong turned her head and found that her grandmother was lying on the hospital bed next to him. The old man had all kinds of tubes inserted into his body, and water was hanging from his body. There was nothing good about him. But he was still full of energy, and he squinted his eyes even though he couldn't move, and glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes in a full-fledged way. Seeing Wu Rong looking over, the old woman snorted coldly, and muttered something in Miao language in disgust, left and right were words like "young people are weak" and "made myself look like this".
"Ah, Wu Rong, you're awake!"
The first person to enter the ward was Master Ling Yun. He looked like he had been busy and had no time to rest. He was wearing Taoist robes from a few days ago. His white hair was not combed properly, and he didn't even use a bamboo hairpin to strung it, so he tied it with a rubber band into a big ponytail and dangled behind him. Seeing Wu Rong wake up, he raised his eyebrows happily, and his eyes were dark and blue:
"Mother-in-law is very worried about you. She insists on staying in the same room with you, and she won't listen to any persuasion."
"Humph."
The witch has been in the village all her life, she doesn't know much Mandarin, and she doesn't know if she understands what Master Lingyun is saying. Anyway, when she saw the celestial master, she didn't have a good face, especially after seeing the young Taoist priest who entered the room behind Master Ling Yun, grandma's face became even more stinky, and her wrinkles were crowded together, like a dehydrated old man. Tangerine skin.
"Fu Qing?"
Although Wu Rong seemed to have seen Fu Qing's figure before he fell into a coma, he didn't really confirm that Fu Qing had returned to him until now. That is to say, Fu Qing has already obtained the mysterious item that Professor Qin mentioned.
"Um."
Fu Qing sat down beside Wu Rong's bed in a natural manner, his gaze shifted from his face to the beautiful snake tail carved out of jade, and then he shook out the quilt that was pushed aside by the snake tail, and gave him a good rest again. Cover it on the body, blocking the tail tightly.
"Humph!"
The witch snorted again in dissatisfaction, especially when she saw the face of this new little Taoist priest who was similar to Fu Qing Nanji at close range, and thought of Wu Rong who was taken away by Fu Qingnan and his party, she became even more angry. If it weren't for the inconvenient movement now, she would have given the other party a Gu as a warning, and the dog celestial master should stay away from her grandson!
"Tong Fuyuan disappeared."
Seemingly understanding what Wu Rong was thinking, he opened his mouth without asking Fu Qing. Master Lingyun behind him also shook his head solemnly: "The Great Tiankeng in Wushan has recovered, but..."
He hesitated to speak, his brows furrowed tightly: "There is something strange about this. Sheng Wedge will change his previous high-profile attitude, and no relevant news has been revealed recently."
"There is a crack in the Wushan Tiankeng in the Evil Miao Village."
Bai Gu's tired and weak voice sounded, his body was no less injured than that of a witch, he was pushed in by Su Xiaomi in a wheelchair. The small room was full of people, but except for Fu Qing, no one dared to sit by Wu Rong's bed, nor did they dare to disturb the witch, so they tacitly stood in a row along the wall by the door. Of course, except Baigu.
He turned the wheelchair and came to the witch's bedside, and whispered to her in Miao language in a respectful and intimate manner as a junior. When she was teaching, she still had the disgusted expression of seeing centipede shit. When the old man in the coffin also came in from the door, and the little man in bandages was too short to be blocked by other people, and squeezed to the front, Wu Rong's most trusted Guiguo team was gathered except Hongxiu.
By coincidence, whether it was Master Lingyun, Old Man Coffin, or Su Xiaomi Baigu, they couldn't help but look at Wu Rong. He didn't dare to look at it openly, so he glanced out of the corner of his eye. If a person does this, it is not easy to be discovered, and it is difficult for Wu Rong not to be noticed if the frequency of being watched is so high.
But if you think about it for a while, you can see how they came to act like they were a little terrified and lost their sense of security. Wu Rong almost regained his memory when he was in the Tiankeng of Laomiao Cave. This experience of being a human being was too insignificant compared with that huge memory, and he almost collapsed. Even the yin-yang contract with Fu Qing almost collapsed, let alone the soul contract and blood contract that was even more unstable than the yin-yang contract.
I'm afraid Master Lingyun and others felt the shadow of death that day. Once the soul contract and blood contract collapsed, their souls would be annihilated and died, and there would be no dregs left. That is to say, if Tong Fuyuan's plan succeeds that day, he can take away the high-level ghost country and Fu Qingnan. Even if Wu Rong, who has recovered his memory, kills him in the name of offending, how will the people and ghosts who have lost their heads and hopes survive the next big Tiankeng to recover.
Fortunately, he fell short.
When Wu Rong moved his hand slightly, he felt Fu Qing's hand covering him. Unlike Wu Rong, his fingers and palms are always warm. This kind of heat makes winter snakes unconsciously yearn for attachment. This is a physiological animal instinct, and there is nothing strange about it. Wu Rong looked down at Fu Qing's fingers, and the tip of the tail quietly entangled Fu Qing's calf with the corner of the quilt hanging beside the bed covering it.
Wu Rong's eyelashes drooped, casting a fine shadow. Not long after waking up, he wanted to sleep again. It would be best to sleep with Fu Qing in his arms.
"...All in all, the most important thing is to suppress the curse of blood pollution first, so that my cousin can hatch Gu seeds, and restore it to its original state."
Bai Gu watched the nose and the heart with his eyes, did not look at scenes that he should not have seen, and even disregarded the witch's dissatisfaction, acting as if he inadvertently stood between the witch and Wu Rong, caring to prevent the old man from being irritated again. At the same time, he whispered something to the old man in Miao language, and upon hearing a certain word, the drowsy Wu Rong woke up.
What Bai Gu was talking about with his grandmother was the set of jewelry from the Wu family, which was said to have been lost after Wu Rong died. Like the Gu species, that set of jewelry is also passed down from generation to generation by the Wu family. Only the Wu family is eligible to wear it, and it contains special power. After Laomiao Cave's tiankeng was destroyed, the altar disappeared, and the witch was rescued, the blood curse on the Gu seeds has weakened a lot.
If you can wear a full set of jewelry, even if you only wear a half set, you can temporarily suppress the curse by virtue of its power. When the Gu species passes through the most fragile cocooning period and successfully hatches the cocoon, its pure and powerful power can resist the curse and will not be easily polluted again.
The problem now is that most of the items in that jewelry set were lost with Wu Roo's sacrifice. Of course, now we all know that Wu Rong probably didn't die, but she probably fell into the hands of the Holy Wedge Society, and those jewelries were almost lost. The hairpin alone is not enough to suppress the curse, just as it is clearly a relic of the witch raft, but it cannot make Nan break the seal.
Um?
Thinking of this, Wu Rong was suddenly taken aback. He vaguely remembered Nan's back standing in front of him when he broke free from the memory storm and returned to reality. That feeling was subtly different from before, he and Fu Qingnan were more 'like', and Wu Rong, who had just escaped from the memories, directly recognized him as Fu Qingnan in blood.
The remnant soul and the main body should be very similar, especially Nan, who retains most of Fu Qingnan's memories, should be more like Fu Qingnan than Fu Qingdu. And the reason why no one could recognize him at the beginning was precisely because of the numerous seals on his body. Every time a seal is released, he becomes more like Fu Qingnan. When the seal is completely released, that is when the remnant soul and reincarnation merge and Fu Qingnan returns to the world.
In other words, it was probably because Nan gave Wu Rong that feeling at that time because he broke another seal. And in that case, the only seal that can be broken is—
"This is an earring from the witch family's jewelry, which was found in my mother-in-law's clothes."
Bai Gu carefully took out a box, opened it to see, inside was a red coral bead earring that made it difficult to look away, and a very small and delicate silver butterfly was attached to the thin silver chain. The exquisite carving made the butterfly come to life , as if it would fly out of the box at any time.
