Chapter 399: The mysterious man a thousand years ago
The mysterious man who came up with the idea thousands of years ago...could he be from the same world as him?
No matter how you think about it, the possibility is very high.
According to records, that person walked out of China and then traveled around the world. After completing that "great cause", he disappeared again. It is said that that person is still walking around the world without knowing his purpose or his identity.
I don't even know what his name is.
Even with that cooperation, no one knows any details about it.
He is the most mysterious person in the world.
No, the power and knowledge he displayed didn't even look like a human being, and were different from the knowledge of this world.
After reading the book, Chu Xiaotian returned the book to Abe Maki. He looked at the two girls who were still reading ancient books.
"Are we going back?"
"Ah? Are you going back now?"
"Some books are quite difficult to understand..."
They were all obviously fascinated.
The four of them left the ancestral hall and entered here less than an hour ago. Although the information was similar to what they learned when they chatted with Abe Maki, they did not gain anything.
After the four people got in the car.
Chu Xiaotian took out the communicator given by the castle guard and contacted June Kaori.
"Mr. Chu."
The phone was picked up instantly, because the communicator was directly connected to June Kaori.
Chu Xiaotian said: "Can you help me contact the old man named Jiang Yuan from China?"
Hearing this, June Kaori couldn't help but be startled. She asked curiously: "Can you reveal the reason?"
"There's something I need to know from him about those towers."
"I understand. We can make arrangements here. I'll send someone to pick you up."
"good."
Communication ends.
After Abe Maki left, Chu Xiaotian and the other two walked on the way home.
Yangzi asked: "Are you going out today?"
Chu Xiaotian nodded and said: "Well, I need to go to the castle to meet someone and learn about those towers."
Chiba recalled the previous conversation between the young man and the other person in the car. She asked, "Is he the man I met in China? He doesn't seem to be an old man, right?"
In her impression, that person seemed to be very young, but she also vaguely remembered that he seemed to be very old, although it didn't seem that way.
Chu Xiaotian smiled and said: "He knows the art of dividing souls, so that body is not his original body. His mental age is indeed that of an old man."
"The art of dividing souls..."
Mentioning this, Qianye's heart skipped a beat. She knew that the boy also had the soul-splitting technique, although she didn't know if he had practiced it.
should...
Hoshinomiya Yoko on the side suddenly said: "Is something going to happen?"
They know a lot of things, and they also know that the world is changing, and there may be a great chaos coming. Moreover, their physiques are also different from ordinary people. Perhaps because of this, they are keenly aware that something is wrong.
A disaster may strike soon.
Chu Xiaotian was silent for a moment, and then said with a gentle expression: "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you no matter what."
Because of this sentence, Chiba's cheeks instantly turned a little red.
And Yoko asked with a smile: "What is this? A confession?"
"Ahem."
"But it's better to just say those few words when confessing, otherwise I will pretend not to understand?"
At times like this, Yoko is more bold.
Chiba glanced at her friend with envy, and she also wanted to be more straightforward.
After sending them home, Chu Xiaotian got into the castle guard's car and went to the castle guard headquarters.
It's been really busy.
Chu Xiaotian also felt this way recently.
After arriving at the castle headquarters, Chu Xiaotian also saw Ryuen Chabashira, and he also learned from Yueyue Kaori that the reason for being able to get in touch with the old man from China was because of the face of the castle chief.
"Oda-kun, you are fine."
"Well, that one..."
"We have been contacted. You can have a conversation at any time."
Chu Xiaotian nodded slightly.
But at this time, Ryuuen Chabashira asked with a smile: "Can we listen in?"
Chu Xiaotian was startled and smiled bitterly: "Of course."
After all, it was the people from the castle who helped contact him, and they were also relevant persons, so they were certainly qualified to listen to his conversation with the old Chinese man.
But having said that, he was not sure whether the old man named Jiang Yuan knew about the relevant matters.
But as the honorary elder of the Huaguo Ghost Slayer Alliance, the other party is still the strongest person in the Huaguo at present, so he probably knows something.
Beep beep beep.
The line is connected.
On the other side of the big screen appeared a man in white robes who looked about thirty years old.
This person was Jiang Yuan. When he saw Chu Xiaotian, he couldn't help but smile: "My little friend, it's been a long time since we said goodbye. At that time, I wanted to talk to you about some things, but I couldn't.
You forget it when you get older."
Chu Xiaotian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. If you want to talk, let's do it all at once. It just so happens that I have something to do with the old gentleman."
"Then, little friend, please go ahead."
"good."
The other two people present also understood the Mandarin conversation.
Chu Xiaotian immediately got to the point: "Does the old gentleman know that those towers were built thousands of years ago?"
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "I know."
"So...does the old gentleman know who the man who led countless Onmyoji a thousand years ago was?"
If he knew, he should know similar details to him.
It is said that the mysterious man came from China, so maybe people in China would know better than him.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan nodded without any hesitation: "I know."
Know!
All three of them's eyes lit up.
Chu Xiaotian immediately asked: "Who is that person?"
Jiang Yuan replied: "That man is the old master."
master!?
This time, the three of them were shocked. The man who led countless strong men to build twelve towers a thousand years ago was actually the strongest master in China!?
It's unbelievable, but the other person doesn't seem to be joking!
Wait, a thousand years ago...
Ryuuen Chabashira and Ryuuki Kaori were both shocked. They suddenly thought of Jiang Yuan's age. According to the data, he should be more than a hundred years old from his birth to now. Why is he linked to a person from a thousand years ago?
But Chu Xiaotian thought of something else, and asked: "Where is the old gentleman's master now?"
Jiang Yuan was silent for a moment and said, "Master has passed away."
Chu Xiaotian was startled when he heard this, then sighed silently, and asked: "But is the life span over?"
Jiang Yuan raised his eyes and took a deep look at the young man, and then said: "Yes, his life span is over."
"Does the old gentleman know his origin?"
"..."
Jiang Yuan looked at the young man, but he hadn't spoken yet, as if he was waiting for the next words.
Chu Xiaotian then asked: "Is he a person from another world?"
Jiang Yuan's eyes burst out with a gleam of light at this moment.
