EKG Life's Mask

"Feng Sui... Feng Sui!"

It was my elder brother's hands that suddenly hugged me for a while.His chest, his cheeks, the temperature close to his body, his touch...all are so real that people feel unbelievable, because they are too real, so they feel false.

Why am I still alive?At that time, the feeling of being pierced by the knife, the pain of being burned by the fire, everything should still remain on this body, but this body of mine has nothing but a small amount of burns Leave.Moreover, even the small amount of burns that remain, seem to be healing at a speed that I can't imagine...

"How is this going?"

I couldn't believe it, my eyes widened and I looked ahead, but I felt that I couldn't see anything.Regarding my puzzlement, the eldest brother did not choose to answer me immediately, but indulged in his own excitement alone.

I turned my head and glanced around slightly.It is really a place with nothing!Below my body, there is nothing but a huge polished stone, and then, around me, there is nothing but rock walls, and above my head, except for a ray of light coming from nowhere Nothing at all.However, just staying in such a place, I can't help but think of another place...

"Wind Flicker..."

He unconsciously pronounced the name aloud.At that time, the sad gesture of being nailed to the corner lingered in my mind.It should be a scene that I haven't seen directly, and I don't even know whether it is real or fake, but at this time, I unexpectedly feel that the real is not like an illusion.

"What happened to Feng Shuo? Is there any news about him? And me, how did I survive?"

"You didn't die at all, so how can you talk about resurrection?"

Not far away, in a dark place, after these words sounded, someone's footsteps slowly approached here.It was as if there was no way to hide the whiteness of this person no matter what, before I approached, the first thing I saw was the white onmyoji uniform with purple cuffs.

"Zhen Liuyan!"

Even though I didn't even see the other person's face clearly, I was so sure that I called out the name.But that only made me feel more confused.

"Why are you here?"

I asked in the direction of that figure.And Zhenliuyan's figure gradually became clear in this darkness.

"Have you forgotten? I am the one who helps you execute the sentence. If there is no identification that I have confirmed the death, can you be released?"

"Eh?"

It is indeed impossible, then, is it because of his help that I am here?

"What's going on here? Shouldn't my heart be dug out by the elder brother? Then, it should be impossible for me to be alive, then..."

"Indeed." Zhen Liuyan said: "Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a person to survive without a heart. After all, it is one of the most important places in life. However, that is only for human beings. You are no longer It's human, isn't it?"

"Eh?"

Although I have never denied this, I am not aware of it either.Because, I don't even know, apart from the scorpion tail behind me that I can't control until now, what else is different about me from human beings.But when this point was mentioned, I still couldn't help feeling that I seemed to understand something.

"Because of this, am I still alive?" I asked.

"If you want to say it, you should really admire your big brother's skills!"

"Big brother?"

I glanced at my eldest brother who was still hugging me and crying in confusion. At this time, he looked like a child, which made people feel very cute, but the technology is...

"It's not easy to kill demons, because they have a very fast recovery ability. If there is no way to kill them with one blow, so that they don't even have a chance to regenerate, even if they are thrown out of their chests and their hearts are dug out, As long as there is no death at the moment the heart is dug out, they can still grow another heart very quickly. As an Onmyoji, it is impossible for you not to know such common sense!"

"Indeed..." I couldn't help echoing.

That is to say, at that time, because the eldest brother wanted to save me, he dug out my heart in front of everyone in a way that would prevent me from dying immediately, and then, when I fainted and the heart regenerated, he took my heart out. Transported out of the village as a corpse and brought here?Because the other party is my brother, all this makes sense, but what I don't understand is why Zhenliuyan is willing to do such a thing?Isn't the reason why he came here is that he was entrusted to kill me, and set up a scheme to kill Feng Shuo on the spot?So what is the reason for saving me?After all, if he hadn't said that I was dead, those villagers would not have allowed my elder brother to take my body, would they?

"But I still don't understand why you want to save me."

Faced with my question, Zhenliuyan just looked at this side with a dull face, and then fell into a long silence. Finally, it seemed that he finally found the words that he could persuade himself before opening his mouth.

"Because I think you are indispensable to subdue that demon named Fengshuo." Zhen Liuyan said solemnly.

"That's right! Windshield!"

Before I could understand what was going on, the elder brother who was holding me and didn't want to let go suddenly shouted in my ear.

"Wow!"

I couldn't help shrinking my neck.

"What's wrong..."

"Now is not the time to talk about this, you have to stop Fengshuo immediately." The elder brother suddenly grabbed my shoulder and said.

"Eh?"

I looked at the elder brother in confusion, and suddenly he became such a serious elder brother again, so I couldn't get used to it right away anyway.

"Fengshuo ran away! Not long after everyone had already died. I don't know what happened, but the red-eyed Fengshuo suddenly rushed into the village and started a massacre. Moreover, even if the opponent It’s me, he doesn’t know him anymore, if I were weaker, I’m afraid I can’t even watch you wake up now. Looking at that posture, there is no doubt that he really went berserk.”

"Ramp away..."

I muttered two words, and what suddenly flashed in my mind was Feng Shuo holding my heart at that time.And then, as if he could still feel it now, were his hands that were growing hot...
