The interior was as dim as ever, with hardly any other light source to illuminate other than the two floor lamps against the wall.Tang Yuefei supported her forehead with her crossed hands, and there was more worry in the fatigue between her eyebrows.The old Taoist priest's phone call did not call more people, and he seemed to answer the question about Lu Cheng very tabooly, and his words were extremely obscure, I believe that if it were not for the fact that he might return to the office, this news would not have been able to reach Tang Yuefei's ears."
This kid is in a very unstable mood right now, if he comes back to you, be sure to keep him before I arrive, the situation is too chaotic, all we can do is to do everything possible to prevent him from doing anything stupid" These are the original words of the old Taoist priest on the phone.Judging from his anxious tone, the seriousness of the situation is probably a level higher than what he described.Tang Yuefei rubbed her faintly swollen eyebrows, feeling that things were out of her control for the first time.Serious injuries have not healed, and he is emotionally confused.No one could have predicted what Lu Cheng would do in this state.Stupid things from the perspective of ordinary people, which thing this guy did was not stupid in advance to offend the Ten Palaces Yan Jun, and then there were countless enemies among his peers, the prestige of the psychic people has not yet been consolidated, and he and the demon clan are entangled, if it is not for his strong strength, such a wild horse can be secretly wiped out ten times in a place like the Temple of the Netherworld, the terrible thing is not that he is in a dangerous place and does not know it, but he already knows the danger but has to change the law to die, but this time the situation is different.The dead person is the old monster, the old man who is regarded as an elder in Lu Cheng's eyes.With Lu Cheng's character, it was impossible to raise a butcher's knife against him, Tang Yuefei was convinced of this, so from the moment the news came and Lu Cheng was unconscious, an inexplicable uneasiness had been hovering in her heart.Now that the East Window incident happened, Lu Cheng also confirmed Tang Yuefei's conjecture with his own attitude, but in this way, it also pushed the whole puzzle to the table.If what he said is true, then behind all this, who disguised himself as Lu Cheng and killed people to blame him, slaughtered the entire demon clan's dragon lair, and after killing a generation of demon kings, he gave all the credit to Lu Cheng.Whether it is strength or scheming, the mastermind behind this unsure existence is so powerful that it is terrifying.Tang Yuefei didn't dare to think about what kind of existence it was, because every time her thoughts touched, she felt a deep chill in her heart.The terrible thing is not this series of actions, but behind this behavior, she can't even guess the most basic purpose and motive of the other party."
Who" felt the faintly approaching figure in the darkness, and Tang Yuefei, who was meditating in the quiet place, couldn't help but gasp.The actions of the person who came were silent, and if it weren't for the skill of the ghost pupil, he might not have felt someone infiltrating until he was attacked.After hearing this shout, the person walking in the dark naturally stopped his movements, and did not attack as soon as he was discovered, which already showed that the other party's intentions were not hostile."
Me."
He took off his hat that covered more than half of his face, and exposed his face, which was covered with wind and frost and cold rain, to the faint light.At this moment, Tang Yuefei's performance was very calm.After seeing Lu Cheng's blood-stained face, in addition to being distressed, this meeting seemed so natural to her."
It's good to be back."
After a long silence, the proprietress said these words in a tearful tear.It's not weakness, it's not contrived.It's that anyone who sees a man who was once fearless and arrogant becomes this one step away from death, and he can't help but feel panicked in his heart.Tang Yuefei suddenly felt that he had changed.It is no longer invincible, no longer omnipotent, and no longer with a light smile, covering all the difficulties that ordinary people dare not think of.She had thought that he would be the king of the world, but now she suddenly realized that he was just a small employee who was injured and would run to her office.How long does it take for a boy to grow into a man, maybe before he learns to regret it, maybe after he realizes that he can't change the world after all.Lu Cheng didn't speak, just carried the people behind him and walked silently from the door to the front of the stage."
Help me."
His voice was slightly hoarse."
What do you help" Tang Yuefei looked at his face, like the first meeting between the two many years ago.He sat across the table and took off his sunglasses and mask, and after a flash of surprise, she told him that she was curious about why people survived the night walk of the hundred ghosts.If time has not passed, may the two stop at the first acquaintance.Lu Cheng shook his head and slowly put down the person on his back.That was the last living mouth of the Demon Concession, and it was also the only remaining relative of Lu Cheng among the demon clan.Looking at her eyes covered by a layer of white cloth, even if she didn't open it with her own hands, Tang Yuefei could imagine what kind of situation it was like underneath.The trembling body, the pale and bloodless face, and the look of extreme distrust and rejection of everything around him.If it weren't for the fact that his mental quality had greatly surpassed that of ordinary people, seeing the appearance of the little fox at this moment, Tang Yuefei would probably really be able to cry.She suddenly understood the reason why Lu Cheng became like this.Everything that happened in the dragon's lair of the demon clan has obviously exceeded everyone's imagination, and if this revenge is not avenged for Lu Cheng, even if he dies, he will have no face to face the old man under the loess."
She was already like that when I arrived."
Lu Cheng's tone was very calm, as if he had experienced the deepest despair, "His eyes were gouged out, and his tongue was cut out."
I told her that I was Lu Cheng, but in this state, she obviously no longer had the ability to distinguish things. ”"Can you ask any useful clues" Tang Yuefei touched the little fox's head, this simple action was exchanged for a strong convulsion after the latter curled up, as if someone else stretched out to her forehead was a bloodstained long knife, which made the proprietress feel a deeper sadness in her heart."
I can't ask," Lu Cheng shook his head, "The memory of the night of the massacre has become one of the most terrifying memories in her mind.It's already a fluke to survive, but if I dig deeper, I'm afraid the result will be another mental breakdown for the rest of my life. ”"Understood."
Tang Yuefei nodded, "You sent her to me just to hope that I can take good care of her, so what about you, what are you going to do?"
”One answer."
I know.So you're going to find out the truth?"
asked one."
This has challenged my bottom line, and you know that with my character, I can't give up.So I came back to you in the hope that you could help me find the answer. ”Lu Cheng looked at her, and the weakness in his eyes that had been deliberately hidden since the incident was instantly exposed, "Boss, I can't do it alone." ”"I understand."
At this moment, Tang Yuefei didn't say anything, just hugged the wronged man in front of her.If a person who is accustomed to invincibility is suddenly unable to move forward due to setbacks and blows, the best thing to do as the only woman by his side who still has reason is to give him a hug and tell him that at least you are still by his side at the moment.Tang Yuefei understood that if this matter was not handled well, it would inevitably become a dead knot that Lu Cheng would not be able to get out of for the rest of his life, and from the moment she stood in his position, she never thought of staying out of the matter.If there really is a mastermind behind the scenes who is trying to turn it against you, then I would say that it is better for him to have the awareness to face two people at the same time."
I'll do everything I can to help with this, but all reasoning must be based on what we already have."
She snuggled up to his chest and uttered the words."
I know."
Lu Cheng nodded, "My emotions have gone wrong now, and I'm afraid it will affect my judgment."
The last thing I can think of before my sanity is to come to you.I understand that in this matter, you will not let me down. ”"You've already been to the Demon Clan's Dragon's Lair, so what is the situation you see" Glancing at the little fox, Tang Yuefei sat back in her place."
It's very clean."
This is the answer given by Lu Cheng, "I didn't feel the slightest breath of death in that land that was once washed in blood.In addition, I also summoned Meng Xiaoli, and similarly, I couldn't even leave a soul fragment behind.Except for the little fox whose mind has been damaged, there is almost zero information about where we can go. ”"Isn't there anything else?"
Tang Yuefei frowned."
That guy is strong.Whether it's the speed of the body, or the ruthlessness of the attack.I'm sure the whole slaughter process was completed very quickly, and many of the demons probably didn't even react before the life was harvested.The most suspicious thing is the serene smile on the old monster's face. ”"What do you think" "No matter how strong a person is, even if I personally take action, the old monster who is a generation of demon kings will not be killed in an instant." ”Lu Cheng closed his eyes and stated the fact that he was most reluctant to mention, "The only person who can make him die with a smile on his face is me."
That's right, all the evidence so far points to me.So I came to you in the hope that you could give me the confidence to tell me that I could not do such a thing, and continue to investigate alone, I am afraid that one day I will go insane in my inner questioning, and distort and misjudge the truth behind the whole thing. ”"I'm telling you that you're thinking too much, I never believed you would kill the old monster from the beginning."
Tang Yuefei looked at him and sneered."
Why?"
and "Do you think it's possible to do this?"
she asked.Lu Chengleng paused for a moment and shook his head."
All that you say is just that you happen to have the objective conditions to accomplish all this, but subjectively, you don't have enough motivation at all."
Tang Yuefei smiled slyly, "If it's really you, then there is only one possibility, that is, you were controlled by someone in your unconscious state and committed this series of crimes. ”"You're right."
Lu Cheng nodded, "That's exactly what I'm afraid of. ”"That's even more ridiculous."
Tang Yuefei smiled, "The immunity attribute of all hallucinogenic spiritual attacks in the Eye of the Black Dragon, you can even withstand the environment of the mountain ghost clan, and you don't know it at all after swaggering and killing people, do you think this may be" Lu Cheng in confusion squinted for a while, he suddenly felt that his thoughts were really right, bad emotions would affect people's logical judgment, if it weren't for Tang Yuefei, maybe until he was so confused that he believed that he had made a move, he would not have thought that there was a Black Dragon Eye pendant immune to mind control on his body:
