Let me live [Quick Transmigration]

----

The scarlet light that the setting sun spread outside the window seemed to be some kind of ominous sign.Xu Xingchun was sitting by the window reading a book. He was concentrating on it and didn't feel sleepy at all, but he felt sleepy inexplicably while watching it.The surroundings were unusually quiet, the maid who was supposed to add oil and light the lamp did not appear, and there was no one in the courtyard, as if everyone had disappeared without a sound.

In a daze, Xu Xingchun seemed to see a shadow standing in front of him.The man didn't know when he came, his face could not be seen clearly with the light behind him, it was just an oppressive dark shadow, looking down at him from a high position.If there is a real gaze, Xu Xingchun is so heavy that he can't breathe. He seems to be trapped in a nightmare. Even if he senses something is wrong, he can't even move his eyelids and fingertips. If he wants to shout, he can only utter There were some sleepy muffled voices.

The figure bent down towards him and moved close to Xu Xingchun's ear.Fear almost drove Xu Xingchun crazy.He heard a low laugh.

"You were tricked by them," said the voice softly.

Xu Xingchun woke up with a start.He suddenly sat up, only to realize that he had been lying on the table at some point just now, and the small pen used for annotating while reading the book rolled to the side, halfway through the writing on the page, the last stroke left a long trace, reflected by the light Red as ink with blood.Xu Xingchun was sweating all over, and his body felt cold for a while, recalling the figure he saw and the voice he heard just now.

...is it a dream?

There was some movement from the window sill.Xu Xingchun was in a state of confusion, and almost knocked over the inkstone when he raised his eyes.A black cat jumped onto the window sill with a white mass in its mouth, looking like a white bird with messy feathers.Its eyes were green, and it grinned, smiling at him like a human being.

The paper crane that flew to Lu You's window was a letter that was originally intended to be delivered to Yun Zheng.It's just that Yun Zheng restrained his breath, he couldn't find it everywhere, so he flew towards the only white bird with his soul.Yun Zheng watched it fly down staggeringly, and landed in Lu You's hand. The letter had a special restriction. Lu You tried to open it but failed to open it, and finally handed it back to him.

When Yun Zheng opened the letter paper, he was prepared to get bad news: the paper crane was not in good condition, and there was blood on its wings.Is anyone hurt?Or... something more serious?

But when he smelled a strong fishy smell from the blood, he knew that he probably thought too much.That was obviously not human blood, but the blood of some kind of aquatic monster.The fact is that the younger brother was lazy or didn't notice, and just let out the talisman stained with demon blood, which caused the paper crane to almost exhaust itself when it reached the finish line.

Fortunately, it finally arrived.If he falls halfway and loses the biography, and does not receive Yun Zheng's reply, Yun Xun will definitely be beaten by his master again - after all, Yun Zheng has always been reliable in his work, and it is the fault of the junior brother that he will never escape if there is a problem.

The letter was densely written in small characters, Yun Zheng read it several times, his brows gradually wrinkled.He borrowed the pen and ink from Lu You's house, wrote the reply letter, folded it into a paper crane by the same method, and released it.Lu You watched with great interest. He couldn't see any difference between the yellow paper spells and the white paper Yun Zheng had been using before, and he just thought they were quite interesting.After the paper crane flew away, Yun Zheng told him what happened.

When walking by the water last night, Lu You heard Yun Zheng mention that during the few days before he disappeared, it was the master and his younger brother who were going to track down a dangerous person. Never showed up.They set off the day before yesterday, shortened the traveling time by using spells, and rushed to Yanzhi River.In the end, before arriving at the destination, I ran into a monster doing evil at a tributary of the river.

The prototype of that monster is a catfish, it has not yet cultivated a human body, but the fish body has grown very huge, and it is making waves on the edge of a small village.It is short-sighted, but courageous. Following the practice of some dragon kings and water gods in the past, it forced the villagers to offer children and beautiful women as sacrifices, causing no peace.Because of the remoteness of the place, they have been doing this for several years without being discovered.

The master and the apprentice sensed the evil spirit when they passed by, so they couldn't hold back and went to meddle in this nosy matter, beheaded the catfish demon, and salvaged the skeleton sunk in the river, and handed it to the villagers for burial.

"Master was restless. He was hit by a water arrow and lost a strand of his beard." Yun Xun wrote on the letter paper, "I was covered in fish blood. Fortunately, I brought a change of clothes, otherwise I would have to wear the one given by my grandmother in the village." …The original catfish demon was big and meaty, and it was purified with four spells. After dividing it, each family in the village got a piece. They wanted to use fish bones to cook soup at night, but unfortunately, Master and I were in a hurry and couldn’t taste it.”

Hearing this, Lu You felt cold for some reason and shivered.Yun Zheng seemed to be aware of it, so he specially explained it: If the catfish has already cultivated a human shape, it will not eat it anymore.Firstly, it would feel like cannibalism to some extent, and secondly, the flesh and blood of the human-shaped demon has been soaked in demonic energy, which has undergone a qualitative change, so it is no longer suitable for food.

However, even if you don't directly drink blood and eat meat, use demon pills to refine medicine and weapons, and use ink mixed with demon blood to draw talismans, such things are not uncommon for demon masters.The fox demon has already survived the catastrophe and was recognized by the heavens, so what is the difference between the end and the ordinary fox who died because of the rich fur?If I really want to say the difference, I am afraid it is more resentment and pain.

Among the heretic warlocks, there are also those who simply poach people's hearts and souls, using them as materials and tools.The identity of the same human beings can't stop those people's greed, let alone the fact that the other party is a fundamentally different species like a "monster".

Lu You didn't say a word, thinking that Yun Zheng's master was indeed very open-minded, and his apprentice blatantly got together with monsters, but he didn't mean to stop him with reasons such as "human monsters have different ways" - he didn't know that old man Yun In fact, it was blocked, but the reason was that Yun Zheng was afraid of being deceived by the "dream" and deceived by his vixen. After Yun Zheng said that he would act carefully, he let it go and didn't care anymore.

He was a little distracted, and when he came back to his senses, he heard Yun Zheng mention a word that caught his attention, "You just said... what is a monk?" He couldn't help asking.

What made Yun Zheng frown, of course, couldn't just be the beard lost by the master and the clothes stained by the younger brother.They killed the catfish demon without much effort, and the demon's blood flowed down the river, attracting another passing demon extermination master.The exorcist had also heard about the reappearance of the ghost monk, and he seemed to know some inside information about the disappearance of the ghost monk before, and provided a new piece of information to the master and the apprentice.

Exorcists are divided into many factions, and the methods they focus on are also different.Some people raise Gu worms, some use spells, some use the power of spirits and ghosts, and some of them involve the struggle between Buddhism and Taoism.Yun Zheng often used various spells, supplemented by illusion, while the ghost monk practiced the spells of splitting soul possession and incarnation outside the body.

He can attach his soul fragments to other creatures, most of the time animals with weaker souls, and let these bodies carry his soul fragments to all directions.With this method, he can travel between two places thousands of miles apart in an instant, or escape from a deadly attack.This kind of technique is very rare, so it is said that he is proficient in escapism.

When the ghost monk disappeared a few years ago, he was indeed severely injured. His original body was destroyed, but some souls escaped from the past and were not completely killed.He has been hiding in hiding for several years to recuperate, and now his strength has recovered a little, so he came out to do evil again unwilling to be lonely.

Old man Yun didn't fully believe this statement, but he still asked Yun Xun to send a letter to remind Yun Zheng to be more careful.After all, if it wasn't for the escape technique, the Yanzhi River would not be a necessary place to pass. They couldn't stop the ghost monk there, so it would be difficult to determine his whereabouts.Even if the ghost monk notices their actions and retaliates in turn, maybe Yun Zheng will also be unlucky--Old man Yun is always worried that he has a "lover" who is a monster.

Lu You heard Yun Zheng describe the image of the rumored ghost monk, and the more he heard it, the more he felt familiar: a monk with fair skin and a beautiful face, always smiling, but fierce and brutal in his attacks... These words are not just right Can everything be applied to the exorcist in the original plot who will kill the fox demon two years later?

He has also been to several mission worlds, and he will not have such extravagant hopes as "purely coincidental".There are always clues connecting important plot characters, whether obvious or implicit.The exorcist Xu Xingchun invited, and the ghost monk that Master Yunzheng is tracking, they are the same person's guess, and nine out of ten are the facts.

Lu You suddenly became a little nervous.Of course, he didn't plan to stay in Xu's residence for two years, and he wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible after the wedding with Xu Xingchun. He thought that the exorcist would never have a chance to appear again—he thought so Another reason is that there is no such person in the task target.Although he was the one who actually did the attack, the fox demon's hatred was completely concentrated on Xu Xingchun.

Could it be that some of the changes caused by his investment and Yunzheng's finding him made the ghost monk's arrival earlier?Or... Lu You remembered Xu Xingchun's attitude of turning a blind eye to the fox demon's occasional show of his feet, and his sneaky approach to Xie Junyu.

Married into Xu's mansion, fell in love with Xie Junyu, was caught when he was weak after forcibly crossing the catastrophe, and was dug out of his inner alchemy... He sorted out these things again according to the guesses that suddenly surfaced just now, as if he had discovered a buried secret. Deep dark lines, I feel chills in my heart.

The fox demon didn't know when Xu Xingchun discovered that he was a monster.What if... it was before he got married?

The ghost monk did not arrive ahead of time, but in the original plot, he has been hiding in the dark, advising Xu Xingchun and helping him control the situation, until the moment when the "fruit" grows mature and can be harvested...

However, when he thought of Xu Xingchun's refusal and injury by Xie Junyu, he also wanted to go to the fox demon and act as a husband and wife, Lu You became a little uncertain again.He sat in contemplation for a while, and Yun Zheng called him several times before he turned his attention back.He wanted to remind Yun Zheng about this, but he didn't know how to explain the existence of the "original plot". As for telling him to be careful of the ghost monk, this old man Yun had already mentioned it countless times.

Yun Zheng seemed to think that he was afraid, so he stretched out his hand to cover the back of his hand, and pressed it lightly.One touch and leave, leaving a little cool temperature during short contact as comfort. "Animals possessed by souls do not have evil spirits, so they are hard to guard against. Instead of being frightened, it is better to be the same as usual." He whispered, "I have some things to leave for a while, and I will come back as soon as possible. The restrictions outside the Lu residence still have some effect , if something happens, Shiratori will also report to me."

Lu You nodded, a little puzzled by his overly dignified expression, but he didn't rush to ask questions, just watched Yun Zheng leave in a hurry - it seemed that there was indeed a very urgent matter.He sat alone in the room, trying to suppress the uneasiness in his heart: that ghost monk... Although his original body has been destroyed, he is still a figure that even Yunzheng's master is very afraid of.If he will indeed appear now, and Yun Zheng will face him head-on, what are the chances of winning?

He thought about it for a while, and decided that he should be more diligent in cultivating witchcraft than wasting his mind and guessing randomly.Even if you can't help at that time, don't hold back.At least he himself thinks... Leaving aside the charm of the fox demon, the sorcery that can hear the heartbeat and launch an attack should be quite powerful.

The fox demon only regards the exorcist as the knife in Xu Xingchun's hand, maybe he missed a target for revenge...

While Lu You was thinking wildly, Yun Zheng had already arrived outside the Lu residence.He walked a little further away before opening his palm, and tried again to summon the paper bird he left in Xu Mansion back.After a while, there was no response, which made him sure that the previous induction was not wrong: the paper bird had been artificially destroyed.
