MTL - After Rebirth, I Returned to Miaojiang to Inherit My Family Business-Chapter 241
At a glance, Wu Rong knew that the earrings were matched with the hairpin, and it was indeed the case, then under the altar was the crack of Wushan Tiankeng. But why did the jewelry that should have been on Wu Rong's body appear in grandma's clothes?
"I saw sister."
Sure enough, Wu Rong found her grandmother at the altar before, and when she heard her say, "Save my sister", she knew that my grandmother might have seen Aunt Wu Rong, and the time when my aunt was transferred away was probably in these two days .
Whether she dropped the earring on Wu Rong consciously, or Tong Fuyuan put it on purposely, in order to prove that Wu Rong is in their hands, this is very important. It's a pity that grandma lost too much blood and her mind was blurred at that time, so she couldn't tell a clearer scene.
Fortunately, with this earring and the previous hairpin, as long as one more Wu family jewelry is found, Wu Rong can suppress the blood curse with Wu Rong's strength, allowing the Gu species to break out of the cocoon smoothly. He will also be able to break away from the state of fusion with the spirit Gu and return to his original shape.
Of course, Wu Rong understood that as long as he regained his memory and recovered his terrifying strength, neither the Datiankeng Sacred Wedge Society nor Tong Fuyuan would be his opponent. But the feeling that the torrent of memory was coming and almost knocked him down really made Wu Rong fearful. His self-awareness in this life is human Wu Rong, or ghost king Wu Rong, not some old monster that has lived for thousands of years.
Compared with those, this memory of human beings is fragile and small, and it will be easily wiped out in the tide of huge memories. But with Wu Rong's current strength, if he wanted to touch that terrifying power, he couldn't control it temporarily, so he could only accept it. If this memory of human beings is washed away and he completely recovers all his memory and strength, will he still be Wu Rong, or will he become a bloodless, ruthless, non-human, non-ghost existence like Tong Fuyuan said?
Wu Rong, who has a strong desire to control, instinctively hates this idea. It doesn't matter if he has feelings or not. The unknown and uncontrollable changes make him really unacceptable. He would rather find another way than take this shortcut.
I'm afraid Tong Fuyuan made such a decision because he knew his character well. But after the calculation to force Wu Rong to recover his memory failed, there was not much time left for Tong Fuyuan. Wu Rong already knew how to gain destructive strength, and it was only a matter of time before he became stronger. Although only based on Wu Rong's character, it can be inferred that he will not accept it immediately, but who knows when it will change.
So in the coming time, Tong Fuyuan's counterattacks, or the Holy Wedge's counterattacks, will become even crazier. It must be restored to its original state as soon as possible in order to meet the next battle.
But this is also simple, because Wu Rong already has an idea of where the third piece of jewelry is.
Without disturbing the witch's rest, several people moved to the living room. Wu Rong sat in the middle of the sofa, with the snake's tail horizontally, the tip of the tail was longer than the sofa, hanging lazily on the armrest. On Wu Rong's left earlobe, when he returned to Miaojiang stockade to inherit the Gu seed, when he went down the mountain, his grandmother personally baked silver needles to pierce his ear. The red coral bead earring is like a drop of bright red blood, which matches the earlobe even more. White as snow. The silver hollow butterfly swayed slightly, as if it would flap its wings and fly away at any moment.
After wearing the earrings, the spiritual power of the Gu species that has been weakened by the blood curse is quite a lot. This method is indeed useful, and the next step is the whereabouts of the third piece of jewelry.
"Ling Yun, are the knights mine?"
"what?"
Even though Master Ling Yun had a sharp mind and a flexible mind, he was still a bit at a loss when Wu Rong asked him so suddenly, and couldn't figure out who the knight was for a while. This time, the rare coffin old man reacted faster than him, and reminded him in a low voice, "The Witch Society"
Only then did Master Lingyun suddenly realize that he thought of the rather shameful association he had established—it was originally a test to see if there were any other reborn people in the ghost country, and gathered them in advance, but who knew that Wu Rong was recruited by mistake up! It's as if a real master has entered the fan support group, but the real master is wearing a vest, and Ling Yun Fantou hasn't recognized him in the first place!
This was simply too embarrassing, too difficult to recall. I thought I had forgotten about it a long time ago, but Wu Rong suddenly brought it up in front of me. But Ling Yun is not an ordinary person. He looked calm and composed, and said openly: "The knight is your man."
It was like this in my previous life.
"But he is not as loyal to you as we are."
Inspector Angus, who was code-named Knight, was promoted after the death of Hongxiu, which was different from those old people who had been with Wu Rong for a long time. Wu Rong didn't sign a complete soul contract with him, Master Ling Yun and the others didn't accept the knight into their circle. The knight has always been a model of talking less and doing more. He silently presides over the expansion of the ghost domain to the European Federation's influence area. Although he is powerful, he is an inconspicuous figure.
Even Master Ling Yun didn't expect that he would be reborn, and he was the first to find him by following the clubs on the Internet.
But the previous life was the previous life, and this life is this life. The knight in this life is the same as Wu Rong, he is not dead, he is still human. Everyone will have different choices at different times, even Master Lingyun has struggled. When the ghost wave struck Yangjiaping, Wu Rong's soul came out of his body, and when he called his subordinates as the ghost king, Inspector Angus did not come, even though he was also in the safe zone at that time.
This time is enough for him to be completely shut out of the ghost country that requires absolute loyalty. That is to say, Hongxiu was busy building the ghost country and expanding the territory of the ghost domain, so he couldn't get out for a while, so he didn't kill him. But Master Lingyun watched all directions with his eyes and ears and listened to all directions, and he always paid attention to the knights.
The more secrets he knows, the more dangerous he is who hesitates in showing his loyalty.
Why did Wu Rong mention him now? Is something wrong?
"The necklace may be in his hand."
Wu Rong said indifferently, he remembered that when the Jieyang incident was over, Inspector Angus took out a silver chain when he left Jieyang, and the silver butterfly ornaments on the silver chain could make the Gu species have a weak reaction. Inspector Angus called Sir Leo his grandfather, and said that this butterfly silver ornament was given to Sir Leo by the witch when he was in Miaojiang. He has always cherished it, so he was not willing to bring it into the Great Tiankeng, and left it outside together with his diary.
"The knight can indeed be counted as a descendant of a hero in terms of status."
Master Lingyun thought about it, in order to get close to Wu Rong, he checked a lot of his information, including top-secret information that was concealed by the Federation, and only then did he know that Wu Rong was actually a descendant of a Miaojiang witch family, a hero. The peerless ghost king is a descendant of a hero, this truth is unbelievable, no wonder it was concealed by the Federation. If this news is spread by someone with a heart, I don't know how much turmoil it will cause.
Especially Fu Qing, who was portrayed by the Federation as the reincarnation of Fu Qingnan, always fighting at the forefront. Fu Qingnan's reincarnation and the descendants of his former teammates have become unending fateful enemies. Fate is like playing a bad joke. Even Master Lingyun's heart was shaken for a moment when he first found out.
But like Wu Rong, he is not the only one in the ghost country. At that time, Hongxiu passed away, and there was a vacancy in the top power of the ghost country. When ghosts needed to be in charge, all parties had their own ideas. The one who stood out from the open and secret battles was actually Angus, the usually unknown ghost knight. Master Ling Yun, who is extremely vigilant, will naturally investigate him carefully from all aspects, only to learn that this ghost was also a descendant of a hero before his death.
It's just that, unlike Wu Rong, it is well known that Sir Leo did not leave any sons and daughters during his lifetime, and those who are commensurate with his descendants in this world are those in the orphanage he sponsored.
The children at the beginning may simply be grateful for Leo's kindness, and they all called him father, and commemorated and missed him after his sacrifice. But when these children grow up, they get married and start a business. The newborn children still call themselves Sir Leo as their grandfather. Some people are even invited to major radio stations to talk about it as grandchildren. They are purely consuming heroes for their own benefit. It's disgusting.
However, Leo's team is different from those unscrupulous people who rely solely on Sir Leo's name.
"He must still have Sir Leo's diary."
When Wu Rong said this, he was looking at Fu Qing. After the big ghost unlocked the seal with Wu Rao's relic, there was only the last seal left. Wu Rong once obtained a broken page of Leo's diary, which caused Nan's soul to fluctuate at that time, and the reason why it could not be unblocked may be the same as that of the Wu family jewelry. If he can get together a diary, Nan will most likely be able to undo the last seal. When the remnant soul and reincarnation merge, Fu Qingnan can truly reappear in the world.
Although Wu Rong can't retrieve those memories at present, Fu Qingnan should know a lot about him. Wu Rong only glimpsed from the memory fragments that from ancient times to the present, there were people who looked very similar to Fu Qingnan in their clothes and dresses in different ages. He guessed that the relationship between Fu Qingnan and himself was not limited to this life.
There must be a reason why he can become the savior of the human race.
The only way to find Sir Leo's relics is from his 'descendants', which is different from the other heroes. There is no record in history of which big tiankeng Sir Leo specifically sealed, but vaguely classified it as "the joint efforts of nine heroes". Nine heroes, seven sinkholes, Sir Leo and Fu Qingnan are all singled out.
This is actually a very unusual thing. What happened in the seven tiankengs at that time? When Master Lingyun received the order and sent people to find Inspector Angus, Wu Rong was also thinking.
This winter is too cold, even though there is a fireplace, which makes the room warm and cozy, Wu Rong still feels that his thinking speed has slowed down a lot, and he is too lazy to lift up his spirits, so he would like to stay with Fu Qing all day long. Zhengyang fire is much warmer than other flames.
It was snowing that day, and it was gloomy outside. It was rare for Fu Qing not to go out for morning exercises, and he was still in the bedroom when Wu Rong woke up. Half asleep and half awake as a pillow on Fu Qing's lap, Wu Rong yawned with sleepy eyes, watching Fu Qing earnestly carving peach charms from the bottom up. Fearing that the sawdust would fall on Wu Rong's face, Fu Qing deliberately turned his body slightly. This angle allowed Wu Rong to see the patterns on the peach talisman more clearly.
Carving talismans is more difficult than drawing talismans, and the effect is more durable. Fu Qing carved a peach charm of the 'Qing Ming Curse'. Wu Rong doesn't like the drowsy feeling in winter, and Fu Qing knows this. With this talisman, Wu Rong's feeling will be much better.
When the talisman carving came to the most critical moment, Fu Qing's energy and spirit were united, and the carving knife stained with cinnabar carefully carved lines on the peach talisman that had just taken shape. Wu Rong was fascinated by his movements, not because of this talisman, but because Fu Qing's movements reminded him of other things.
Carving, carving, what does he think of? He should have thought of it when he was sane, but now his confused mind has become an obstacle to the clues. Carving, carving, what is that vague inspiration in my mind?
Wu Rong's brows became more and more tightly frowned, the feeling that the answer was clearly in front of her eyes, but she couldn't see it through a layer was really driving people crazy. I don't know how long it took when he was deeply immersed in his own thoughts. Suddenly, Wu Rong's forehead felt cold, but it was Fu Qing who had already carved the peach talisman. Seeing that his brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was in deep thought, he touched Wu Rong's forehead with the peach talisman.
As if drinking a cup of mint tea on a hot summer day, Wu Rong grasped Fu Qing's hand at this moment of clarity, and also grasped the inspiration that flashed through his mind.
It has something to do with Sir Leo, and it's not just Sir Angus and the 'offspring' who know about him.
There are also stone heads!
