The journey to Teyvat from the Abyss Mage
Chapter 165 I, Luo Mu, want to be a master of magic
"Ms. Shen He, if you want to know something, there's really no need to be so aggressive." Luo Mu, who had stuck himself on the threshold, slowly turned around with his amazing sense of balance. He tried to look calmly at the cold white-haired girl in front of him, with a tone of persuasion and reproach: "If you're like this, do you still want to do business with me?"
Shen He narrowed her eyes without comment, then she took a few steps back to give Luo Mu the passage to enter the store.
That's right... Luo Mu stepped down from the threshold with some surprise, and was amazed at Shen He's understanding. But before he could stand firmly, a slender white palm, with a sharp and cold wind, slapped his chest directly. At this moment, Luo Mu once again felt the restlessness of resentment in his body. They were like a pack of provoked wolves, eager to break out of their bodies and meet that palm.
I must not let Shen He's palm wind touch my body! Luo Mu immediately made a decision. For a moment, he did not care whether Xu Kong Wan Zang's existence would be exposed. He flipped his hands, and a golden round shield appeared on Luo Mu's left forearm. At the last moment, it blocked Shen He's palm and Luo Mu's chest.
With a bang, the palm and the round shield came into contact, and there was a loud sound like a huge bell. Luo Mu only felt a great force coming from the slender jade hand, passing through the round shield, and hitting his chest heavily like a battering ram, making his face turn pale.
Damn! Is this a human?! Luo Mu pursed his lips, and before Shen He closed his palm, he pressed his right hand against the shield and pushed it diagonally upwards. The shield that was originally held down by Shen He suddenly bounced up like a frightened rabbit and hit Shen He's left shoulder diagonally.
Shen He took half a step back, just avoiding the shield. At the same time, her right palm changed from a slap to a point, and she put her two fingers together like a sword and pointed it quickly at Luo Mu's forehead. There was a faint bit of pure ice elemental power flying up and down at her fingertips, quietly outlining the shape of a talisman.
Is this... a magic trick of the immortal family? Or a method of the exorcist family? Luo Mu's eyes fixed. He would never dare to take such an attack head-on. He exerted force with his right arm and suddenly pulled the round shield back in front of him, allowing the unknown Taoist magic to finally hit the shield created by Xu Kong Wan Zang.
The light dissipated silently, and in the end nothing happened.
All this happened extremely quickly. The fight between the two men started with the loud bang, and the several exchanges of offense and defense actually took less than three seconds. At this time, the shop owner had just come to his senses. He was about to rush over to say something, but Luo Mu waved at him without looking back. A golden red flame flashed, and the shop owner's expression instantly became dazed. Although Luo Mu and Shen He were still on the verge of a fight, the shop owner no longer had the panic and urgency he had just had. He sat back behind the counter with a peaceful and happy face, smiling with squinting eyes, looking like a Maitreya Buddha.
"Miss Shen He, you've seen it too. We can't have a good talk like this." Luo Mu sighed helplessly: As expected, those who live alone are either gods or beasts. Although Shen He has been educated as an immortal, she is still used to dealing with interpersonal issues in the style of the immortal cave. She interrogates anyone she suspects and drives away anyone she dislikes. This won't work.
At least he doesn't want to be remembered and killed...
However, these close combats also made Luo Mu understand why Shen He was suspicious of him.
How could he have forgotten that she was also equipped with the ability to exorcise demons? The resentment in him would have a violent reaction when it came into contact with Chongyun's pure yang body. As a disciple of the immortal family, Shen He must have more transcendent means, so it would not be difficult for him to detect one or two strands of resentment...
Her teacher should have told her about Jun Bai and his peculiarities, but Luo Mu's current appearance was completely different from that gloomy and elegant underworld lord, so after a simple test, Shen He subconsciously regarded him as some kind of monster.
"There is an evil aura about you." Shen He said coldly. Although she had withdrawn her hands and stood still at this moment, Luo Mu could still feel the sharp murderous intent rising from her body. He pointed helplessly at the table beside him and motioned Shen He to sit down.
"A gentleman uses his mouth, not his fists. Hasn't you heard of this, Miss Shen He?" Seeing Shen He sitting down reluctantly, Luo Mu breathed a sigh of relief. He also sat down immediately, reached out to take the teapot, poured two cups of tea, and pushed one of the cups in front of Shen He.
"I think I must make one thing clear first," Luo Mu said calmly after moistening his dry lips with cold tea, "I have no intention of making any plans against you, nor do I have any hostility towards Liyue. As you can see, I am just a scholar who came here for a field study, and I have no ill intentions at all."
Shen He frowned: "What's the matter with the evil aura on you?"
Luo Mu put down his teacup and spread his hands innocently: "If I say it's natural, would you believe it?"
There seemed to be a hint of sarcasm at the corner of Shen He's mouth, and she shook her head.
"I also don't think you would believe it." Luo Mu smiled, and then continued: "Then if someone said that someone was born under the star of life and death and was burdened with endless evil karma, would you believe it?"
"Nonsense!" Shen He said coldly.
"Then if the residents of an island say that a child is born to be a god and should be killed to pray to the gods, would you believe it?"
Shen He's long eyebrows suddenly jumped, and a surge of anger arose inexplicably: "How ridiculous!"
"Look." Luo Mu poured himself another cup of tea: "You also think these things are absurd and unreasonable, right? But there are still countless stupid guys in this world who believe that the one who is in charge of the death star is the captain of the big ship we saw today, named Beidou. As for the child..." Luo Mu paused and did not continue speaking, but cast his gaze to Shen He, who was confused and indignant.
"And you, although you are a Liyue person, are completely ignorant of Liyue's laws and human principles. When you encounter problems, you usually kill them. Don't you think that if I exaggerate and make up your story, you will become some kind of mountain spirit or wild monster?"
"...I don't stay in the human world, not because I don't want to or can't." Shen He rarely spoke to defend himself, "It's just...I am destined to be lonely and will easily hurt people around me. The only way is to restrain myself with a red rope and stay away from the world..."
Knock knock knock. Shen He's words, which were fluent as if by muscle memory, were interrupted by Luo Mu's impatient knocking on the table. She looked over angrily and found that the young man opposite her was knocking on the table helplessly, with a somewhat amusing expression.
"Ms. Shen He." Luo Mu smiled and said, "Don't you think your explanation is very similar to the two stories I just told you?"
"It's different." Shen He answered seriously: "The two people you mentioned are superstitious and stupid in the world, but my fate is indeed like this, it's not nonsense."
It seems that this girl really cares about this matter... Luo Mu's heart moved.
No wonder Master Liuyun Jiefeng wanted to find a guardian before letting her go down the mountain... This child would become so paranoid if she stayed in the mountain any longer!
"You haven't told me yet what's going on with the evil aura in you." Luo Mu was silent, but Shen He was not idle. She suddenly spoke and brought the question back to the starting point.
Good fellow... After being off topic for so long, why are you still thinking about it! Luo Mu choked on the tea and started coughing violently.
It's ok, I've made some progress, at least I didn't do it this time...
"It's natural." Luo Mu coughed and lied, "At that time, the Fatui... were a group of bad guys. They released something called Demon Residue in Mondstadt. My mother accidentally came into contact with some of it when she was pregnant with me, so my physique is different from that of ordinary people..."
[For example, it can conjure up golden weapons out of thin air...] The system rarely made a good comment.
If you can't help, just shut up! I've modified Cole's background story. Although it's a bit too magical... it's also reasonable and well-founded! You know shit! Luo Mu loudly condemned the system's inaction in his heart.
Shen He will believe it...right?
