Pick up the Dragon

Peng Yu nodded his head pretending to be deep: "I'm afraid this is a bit of a long story—how about it, Qian Yue, you accompany me to the Jiren Hall, and I will ask Zhou Huai."

Qian Yue looked suspiciously at his face: "Are you sure? Don't tell the two dragons?"

"Let's not do it first, it's one less alarm."

Peng Yu called a servant to clean the house, while he himself, accompanied by Qian Yue, wandered to Jiren Hall, and knocked on Zhou Huai's door in the middle of the night.Zhou Huai himself actually has good medical ethics, and he doesn't feel angry about being disturbed by a patient in the middle of the night—as long as the "patient" is not an arrogant and domineering Peng family.

He put on his clothes and got up sleepily, opened the door in a huff, covered his mouth and said vaguely: "What's wrong? Headache and brain fever? Running belly?"

Peng Yu looked at him with an indescribable expression, but didn't speak.

Zhou Huai opened his narrowed eyelids a little wider, but unfortunately they were still half-opened, obviously not recognizing who the person in front of him was.He asked again impatiently: "What's wrong, at least tell me about the symptoms?"

Peng Yu finally spoke, "I am Peng Yu."

Zhou Huai then widened his eyes, and instantly judged what was wrong with the person in front of him—either delusional disorder or neuropathy.

He felt that his ability was limited and he couldn't save the other party, so he took a step back blankly and was about to close the door to see off the guests, but Peng Yu quickly stopped him, who sighed: "It's really me!"

Zhou Huai was silent for three seconds, and finally stepped aside: "Come in."

The two sat down facing each other in the lobby, and lit a special "Bright Blind Eye" of Peng's family, and the whole lobby was suddenly brightly lit.Zhou Huai shaved Young Master Peng's body three times with a knife-like gaze, and even stretched out his hands to pinch his cheek until the other party's tears rolled down before he let him go: "So what's wrong with you?"

It was rare for Peng Yu not to be full of horses and horses. He honestly explained his "cause" and waited for the other party to complain.Zhou Huai took his hand to look at his palm, and then took his pulse. From his eyes to his movements, "do not believe" was written all over.

Peng Yu lowered his voice apprehensively and said, "I won't really become a snake, will I?"

After hearing his absurd remarks, Dr. Zhou almost blurted out the sentence "You have read too many miscellaneous books", but because of his medical ethics, he just let out a sneer from his nose: "Judging from your pulse condition, you should still be a person and have not changed. Become a beast."

Peng Yu: "..."

Why did he feel that this sentence was vaguely scolding him?

"Forgive my inexperience, I have never seen you in this situation." Zhou Huai let go of his wrist, frowned and thought carefully, "If it is really like what you said, the Teng Snake Slough and the Qilin Horn have melted into your body In the past, it led to the current change, so... that means that you are now the real 'Mirror of Universe'?"

Peng Yu was taken aback for a moment.

Zhou Huai also said: "It seems to make sense. Anyway, the records about the Universe Mirror are all from the fairy world. As for what the real Universe Mirror looks like, no one knows. In other words, there is no need to dig out any eyes to open it." To become a mirror, as long as you put the Teng Snake Slough and the Qilin Horn in your hands, they will naturally merge with you and become a Universe Mirror, is that what you mean?"

His eyes suddenly became hot, he pulled out a knife out of nowhere, and grabbed a finger of Peng Yu: "Can I try?"

Peng Yu's hair stood on end immediately: "What are you doing?"

Zhou Huai didn't intend to explain his behavior, so he took the blade and slashed lightly on the opponent's finger, cutting a bloody gash.However, the bloody mouth was red but did not bleed out, and the wound closed slowly, within a few seconds it healed as before.

Peng Yu: "..."

When did he have this ability!

Zhou Huai pinched his fingertips again: "Does it hurt?"

Before Peng Yu recovered from the shock, he swallowed with difficulty: "It seems...it doesn't hurt too much."

He suddenly thought of a sentence that Li Yi said-adding the snake slough to make the mirror tough and able to withstand a thousand blows, and using the unicorn horn to drive away evil spirits and suppress evil spirits so that demons and ghosts can avoid thousands of miles.

So now he can be regarded as... able to bear the blow of Wanjun?

Zhou Huai stood up and kneaded and patted his arms and shoulders: "If I'm not mistaken, you should have amazing self-healing ability now, the pain sensation has decreased, and the strength of your muscles and bones has increased-you can try it yourself if you don't believe me."

"How to try?"

"Crush a boulder in your chest."

Peng Yu: "..."

He silently rolled his eyes, forcefully ignoring the cold joke: "So am I moving closer to the dragon now?"

Zhou Huai gave a suspicious "hmm": "Many races have this characteristic, such as gods and some demons, why do you have to belong to the dragon clan? Oh, but if you have sex with dragons now, you don't have to worry about it." will be crushed to death."

Peng Yu: "..."

He really wanted to tear this mouth surnamed Zhou.

Zhou Huai waved his hand at him without changing his face, and yawned long: "If you're okay, you can go, anyway, it's all melted in, and there's no way to take it out again. I think it's good, at least you In the future, you won’t die if you touch it, and it’s still dangerous to find holy objects, so please take care.”

This dog spit out an ivory unexpectedly, Peng Yu was startled, and almost suspected that he had taken the wrong medicine tonight.It's a pity that Zhou Huai didn't give him a chance to be sarcastic, and immediately issued an order to expel him from Jirentang.

In the early morning of the next day, Peng Yu changed into the clothes that fit him, rolled out of his room alive and kicked, and went straight to the West Wing amidst the stunned attention of the whole house. , three meals a day, as if wanting to make up for the lost meat.

At this moment, he had just finished his breakfast, and he was feeling in his heart that the food of Peng's family is really exquisite. The same vegetable dish can be made into a hundred variations, no matter how you eat it, you won't get tired of it.He squinted his eyes and licked his lips with great enjoyment, and slowly put down his chopsticks, when he heard a knock on the door.

Peng Yu said outside the door: "Well... I'm coming in, don't be scared."

Li Yi couldn't help laughing, thinking that he could be frightened by what this mere mortal turned into, not to mention that Jiu Yuan had already informed him in advance.He picked up a cup of tea and rinsed his mouth: "Come in."

However, the next moment, Dragon King was severely slapped in the face by himself. Seeing the man's appearance after "changing his face", he sprayed a mouthful of tea from his mouth, accidentally choked on the intake pipe, and instantly coughed into darkness.

"I told you to get ready," Peng Yu quickly came up to pat him on the back, "Master, I also know that I am flirtatious now, don't get excited, just get used to it."

Li Yi was so shocked that he couldn't even speak for a while, and he didn't even notice that someone cut off the word "suave" in half.

It was as if he was struck by a thunderbolt, and it took him a long time to retrieve his tongue: "You..."

Peng Yu blinked: "Me?"

"It's you..." Li Yi exhaled slowly, those few inaudible words seemed to be mixed in the airflow to be rushed out of his throat, "Sure enough..."

Peng Yu was inexplicable for a while, he didn't understand what kind of riddle he was playing at all, but he saw that the rare blood on his cheeks had transferred to the end of his eyes, he couldn't help being slightly startled, and said inexplicably guilty: "No, no, don't cry !"

Li Yi closed his eyes fiercely, took a few deep breaths, temporarily suppressed the churning emotions, and looked back and forth at the man's face, as if he wanted to see someone through that layer of skin.

Peng Yu only felt that his eyes were like a ball of fire, which seemed to burn through his soul. He moved a little uneasy, and a certain premonition was ready to come out in his mind: "I look like...do you look like someone you know?"

The complicated look on Li Yi's face finally faded away a little bit. He exhaled slowly, peeled his gaze away from the other person's face, and cast his eyes on a certain point in the void, as if he had caught a point in a distant memory. The tails of memory fragments are connected in series by that familiar face, and they are completely pieced together.

"Dragon people reach adulthood at a thousand years old," he finally said after a long time, "When you become an adult, you have to go through a catastrophe, and you will become a real dragon if you pass through it. The mixed blood of the Yunqing clan possesses two kinds of powers, and they have endured twice as much catastrophe as other dragons, and of course, if they succeed in overcoming the catastrophe, their cultivation base will also be doubled."

Peng Yu had a vague guess in his heart, but he didn't interrupt, just patiently listening to him continue.

Li Yi: "Although I succeeded in crossing the catastrophe, I was almost killed by the thunder catastrophe. I accidentally fell into the world and stopped in a deserted wilderness. I told you before that dragon meat and dragon blood will attract monsters to covet , even if they are thousands of miles away, they will come looking for the smell of blood."

彭彧忍不住轻轻地插了句嘴：“这时候你被人救了吗？”

"Almost." Li Yi said, "At that time, I thought, if a few little monsters with 500 years of Taoism come, I may be killed by them. However, the first one to appear is not a monster, but... ...a person, a fairy."

"I don't know why there are immortals in the world, but thinking that meeting an immortal is better than encountering a monster, I drowsily shrank and was taken away by him." The corners of his mouth curled up, as if he was a little helpless, "He is really casual, he has no fixed place in the world, he just finds a ruined temple and takes me there, and he doesn't heal my wounds, he finds a thatched bed and puts me in a bed. Just leave it there and ignore it.”

When he said these words, his eyes softened involuntarily, as if he was narrating some precious memories: "He can fast himself without water and rice, but I can't, and I was seriously injured again, so I had to beg him to bring me some food He was very reluctant, saying 'I've never seen a dragon as difficult to handle as you', but in the end he went and found me food and water."

"I was recuperating in that ruined temple, and I gradually got to know him well. I asked him that he was a loose immortal with little mana, and his cultivation had just reached the level of immortality. He said that there was no place for him in the heavens, so he just I went to the human world to travel, this travel lasted for ten years, and I found that this place is much better than the heavens, and I never want to go back.”

"I asked him his name, his name, and the number of immortals, but he refused to answer any of them. He smiled and said that such things as names cannot be casually told to others. Every time one more person knows, it is equivalent to putting an extra lock on himself. He just wants to be an unfettered loose fairy, and doesn't want to be trapped by the world."

Peng Yu listened to him carefully, and in a few words, he only felt that this fairy was incompatible with the fairy in his impression, probably a clear stream in the fairy world.

Li Yi suddenly raised his head and glanced at him, the smile on his lips faded: "I've been with him for about a month, he thinks I'm annoying and I have too many things to do, and tries to drive me away every day, saying I shouldn't He owed me to pick me up, and when I recovered from my injury, I really wanted to leave, but he was reluctant. But I was born to be the Dragon King, the catastrophe is over, my cultivation is enough, I have to go back to inherit the throne."

"Before I left, I told him that I would come back to him after I dealt with the matter of the Dragon Clan. He didn't agree or refuse. He just mocked me, 'You can be the Dragon King with a little dragon like you. Why are your Dragon Clan so weak?'" 'I can't guarantee where I will be when you come back, if you want to find me, you can find me, as long as you can find it'."

What happened 2000 years ago is still very precious to him now, and he does not know how many times he has silently recalled it when no one was around.His expression sank completely, and his whole body tensed up slightly: "Because the Four Sages fell at the beginning of the fall, and the world was in turmoil. It took me some effort to stabilize my position, which wasted a lot of time. Wait for everything After settling down, I went back to look for him, only to find...found him..."

He took a breath with trembling lips, and suddenly picked up the cold tea on the table and drank it down, as if he had found the courage to continue from the tea: "When I found him, he was already dying, and he was dug away His eyes were bleeding profusely, and his cultivation was almost broken. I asked him who did it, but he refused to tell me. He just told me not to avenge him. I don't want to ask for trouble, it's not worth sacrificing for him."

"I saw him die in front of me with my own eyes. His immortal body was broken, and I couldn't save him. The last sentence he left was 'It's okay to give them a pair of eyes, but it's a pity they used the wrong place'."

Hearing this, Peng Yu couldn't help frowning slightly. Although the other party's sentence was close to being straightforward, he still felt blocked for no reason: "What do you mean? What do you mean by 'using the wrong place'?"

"I don't know either. I haven't figured it out for so many years." Li Wei calmed down a little, "I didn't know there was such a thing as Qiankun Eye at the time. I only found out about it after he died, and gradually Understand why he won't let me avenge him - I really can't do it, because the one who hurt him is the heaven, his colleagues, and the gods."

Peng Yu suddenly remembered something: "So what is recorded in the fairy book..."

"Yes, have you seen it too?" Li Yi smirked slightly, "'The world is not benevolent, and everything is a humble dog', this is true, they treat everything equally, no matter if it is an enemy or a colleague, as long as they should If you die for the "way of heaven", you cannot live by luck. The heavens need the eyes of heaven and earth, no matter who the eyes are on, livestock, people, immortals or even the gods themselves, they will take it out mercilessly and sacrifice it to what they call The 'righteousness'."

Peng Yu lowered his eyelids: "According to what you said, there seems to be nothing wrong with the heavens. They have their own rules, just like there is an order in the world. They are just too indifferent and seem unreasonable."

Li Yi: "You are right. The reason why gods are gods is that they completely suppress their emotions. They seem to treat everyone coldly, but they don't care about 'hot eyes'. In their view, they sacrificed for the way of heaven. It should be taken for granted, even in the fairy book, it is not worth recording a credit for him, but in our opinion..."

He couldn't continue in the middle of the sentence, Peng Yu took over and asked softly: "So you hate Tianjie so much because they killed your... savior?"

"It's a close friend, although maybe it's my wishful thinking." Li Yi turned his gaze back to him, "It's not all because of this reason. I stayed on Penglai Island until I was an adult and didn't know much about the world. He was the first fairy I came into contact with. , I thought that all immortals should be like him, until I saw their real faces later, I realized how wrong I was."

Peng Yu let out an "oh", and he understood: "You think they have slandered the image of immortals in your mind - you divided immortals into two categories, one is 'him' and the other is 'other immortals. ’, you think only ‘he’ really deserves the title of immortal, and the ‘other immortals’ are rubbish, so you think they are disgusting and sanctimonious.”

Li Yi didn't say a word for a while, as if he was poked into his mind, he hesitated for a long time before opening his mouth: "You can understand it that way."

Peng Yu sat down on the table in a disfigured manner, folded his arms and said, "Although I think you have a little prejudice against the fairy world, unfortunately, I have the same feeling as you, and I don't like theirs very much. doing."

He spread his hands: "So we are in the same boat—are you trying to tell me now that that unknown fairy is my previous life?"

He brought back the topic of far away without any skill, Li Yi pursed his lips, and didn't care that he used the wrong word again: "I always thought that the eyes of heaven and earth just fall on someone randomly, last time it was him, this time It's you, so I didn't think about the relationship between you. I didn't expect you—the way you look now is like him."

Peng Yu didn't ask where the remaining [-]% ​​was, but nodded and said, "Actually, when I first saw you, I thought this dragon looked familiar, but I always thought it was my own sentimentality, and I didn't think of it. What else. Then you have been so kind to me since you met me, what other reasons are there?"

"At first, I just thought you were very interesting," Li Yi said, "I thought you were... lawless, dared to touch me, unlike the mortal in my impression, so I paid more attention."

Peng Yu showed a puzzled expression: "What do mortals look like in your impression? When you see a dragon, you kneel down and bow down, begging for your kindness, or simply frightened? Do you have any misunderstandings about us mortals?"

Li Wei really wanted to answer him, "I'm afraid you have misunderstood ordinary people", but he finally didn't say it, and sighed silently in his heart: "Later, I found that you are a bit too casual, you don't care about anything, you don't know anything Dare to run with me to the ghost town, and somehow come to Anping with me——it’s a bit like him.”

"No, you wait..."

Peng Yu really wanted to defend himself and correct the dragon's prejudice against him, but before he could say anything, he heard a "boom" on the door, and Jiu Yuan barged in without knocking!

Jiuyuan was wrapped in the wind and rolled into the house, completely ignored what the two of them were doing, and hurriedly opened his mouth when he came up: "Wang, there are letters from the Qinglong clan, and there have been frequent strange phenomena in Penglai Xiandao recently. I am afraid that something will change, so I ask you to go back and investigate quickly." .”
