In the Guyin tribe, the priest summoned all the tribesmen and informed them of the identity of the saint. The whole tribe was filled with joy, and everyone was happily preparing for a banquet to welcome the saint.
The three Central Plains people, Ju Shuang, Ehuang, and Bai Feng, were overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of these Tu people. This group of people loved singing and dancing, but to the three of them, it was just ghosts crying, wolves howling, and demons dancing wildly.
And Yan...
"The source of this obsession is yourself. It is something that is imprinted in the deepest part of your heart. Even if your spirit is occupied, you cannot forget it."
Due to the obsession engraved in his soul, to break free from his soul and find his true self, Yan has complex feelings about the identity of the Saint of Shushan.
The divination prophecy told by the priest was that he would destroy the Fuso sacred tree, but would lead them to create a new future.
Is that the mission of the saint?
Her eyes were deep, watching the singing and dancing people, the ancient and obscure songs came to her ears, her calm and upright body, her shoulders undulating, and her hands clasped tighter and tighter in front of her abdomen.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Um?"
Yan suddenly woke up and looked sideways, seeing that it was Gu Shuang.
"Nothing, just~" She took a breath, her shoulders slumped slightly, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, "I was just thinking about the identity of the Saint of Shushan."
Ju Shuang looked at her profile, thinking that her spirit had been occupied by the soul of life, and that she had spent the first thirty years of her life both real and fake, so she said nothing more.
The forgotten roots of my hometown have now been found. The Saint of Shushan knows without thinking that these four words not only have a noble status, but also a heavy responsibility. A responsibility that I was not aware of for the first thirty years of my life.
Once it was carried on her body, she would feel at a loss if it were her.
I used to be a killer with no past and no heart, Wei Wuji, Wu Ming, Lu Yan, Yan Lu, and my daughter. It was these people who made me truly become a warm-hearted person, who understood love and responsibility.
As for Yan, Donghuang Taiyi turned her into Concubine Dongjun Yan of the Yin and Yang family. She forgot her hometown, closed her heart, and lived in the world as an arrogant and cool person who was both true and false. When she found herself,
How should we face our hometown and responsibilities that we have forgotten for many years?
Ju Shuang couldn't understand what these Yin people were singing, but the enthusiasm and even piety they put into it was evident from their expressions and their sweat-soaked bodies. The three-legged golden crow, the Holy Maiden of Shushan, was like a faith to them.
existence. Yan should have been touched in his heart when he faced these people.
She suddenly thought of Ehuang again.
Unknowingly, Ehuang has been in the Imperial Master's Mansion for ten years. She still remembers that she was thrown here by the Moon God, and she had long been determined to die. The person she missed...
Ju Shuang turned to look at Ehuang, pursed her red lips, and smiled: Sister Nv Ying and..., I don’t know if that Shun Jun can still be considered the same.
"Huh? Sister, what do you want me to do?" Ehuang felt her gaze and turned around to ask.
"About Nv Ying, and Shun, you..."
"I have expected this from the moment I learned about the fate of the soul."
"Ehuang——"
"I think, Master Yan, there should be a way."
Ehuang's sudden mention made Yan momentarily absent-minded. She glanced at the other party and lightly opened her red lips: "I have the means to eradicate the soul of life. However, important figures in the Yin and Yang family cannot escape Donghuang Taiyi, whether in life or death.
observation.
If he learns that another life soul disappears but the person is not dead, then my death and the condition of the Moon God are likely to arouse his suspicion, causing Lu Yan to be in danger at the Yin Yang Family."
The purpose of this action against the Yin Yang family is to remove Da Siming without alerting Donghuang Taiyi, and to remove a stumbling block for the Moon God.
If the final result of the action increases the possibility of them being exposed, or even endangers Lu Yan, then it will completely run counter to the original intention.
They did not have Lu Yan's method of tampering with the stars by relying on the Heavenly Book. It was an almost impossible task to eradicate the soul of life and save lives without being noticed by Donghuang Taiyi.
Yan paused as he spoke, "Just call me Yan."
"Yan Da~, um." Ehuang heard this, his amber eyes flashed, and he responded softly, "Yan, you can trust me to do something when the time comes. I will make a break with Nuying and Shun.
"
"I see."
Ju Shuang saw the exchange between the two in her eyes, closed her eyes, and turned to look at Bai Feng. The latter had his usual calm and indifferent expression, with his hands folded on his chest and standing straight. Now, the four of them
, the only one who has no psychological burden is Bai Feng.
…
While they were talking, the priest was called away by a female tribesman, who only whispered a few words, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
"I see."
"Priest, this is not the way to go. Without Yangjinyulu grass, your injuries-"
"Needless to say." The priest interrupted him with a wave of his hand, took two steps with the staff in hand, looked up at the moon in the night sky, and sighed, "Every drink and peck has a hidden meaning. Perhaps, the Saint
The appearance is indeed a turning point in the fate of our clan."
The female tribe member didn't quite understand. She frowned, looked at the priest, took a step forward, and asked: "Priest, what are you talking about, turning point?"
"Oh, you go ahead. Yangjinyulucao, I will think of a way."
"……yes."
The female tribe member left. However, the priest turned his head and looked at her back, the divine light in his eyes was a little erratic, and the body standing holding the staff seemed to be hunched over.
…
The houses of the Yin tribe are stilted buildings. The main feature is that there is no contact between the house and the ground to prevent moisture.
The four of them, Yan, were arranged in a two-story bamboo building.
That night, Bai Feng lay on the thatched roof of the bamboo house, resting his head on his hands, bending his legs, looking at the bright moon in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
Um?
He turned his head slightly to one side and realized someone was coming.
It's a priest.
The priest raised his head and glanced at the white man lying on the roof. After nodding, he walked closer and called the door.
"Holy girl, I apologize for disturbing you late at night."
right
Yan appeared at the door, a little surprised: "Priest, it's so late, is there anything important?"
The priest nodded, "There is indeed something concerning my life, and I would like to ask the saint for help."
"Come in and talk."
"Thank you, Saint."
In the bamboo building, Ju Shuang and Ehuang were in their respective bedrooms, and Yan was the only one in the living room. She asked the priest to sit down and asked: "What is so important? If Yan can help, I will never refuse."
"To be precise, not only you, Saint, but your companions will also have to take action." The priest's old face shrank, and the lines on his forehead were deeply wrinkled. "Saint, do you remember, that one
The giant bird that chases you into the forest."
"That giant bird?"
"My vitality was severely damaged due to the divination that happened more than 20 years ago. I have been taking decoctions all year round to recuperate my body. One of the main medicines is the Yangjin Jade Grass that grows on the top of the cliff.
This kind of grass absorbs the mist and dew in the mountains at the first moment of every sunrise, gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and can replenish my vitality that was greatly lost that year.
She is both the elixir of heaven and earth and the poison of heaven and earth. In the past twenty years, in the first ten years, I only took it once, and in the last ten years, I have taken it three times."
"If you don't take it..."
"If it is stopped once, the fallen leaves return to their roots, and people return to the earth, I can return the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that I have swallowed privately in the past twenty years to the mountains and forests. However, at this time, I am not willing to die."
