Be Your Demon [Comprehensive Manga]

"Yan Xi," Wu Yuan not only didn't believe it, but also heartbroken: "How can you get along with this kind of monster? You say that I...is too ridiculous."

"Five yuan, I don't need to lie to you."

Wu Yuan retorted: "Impossible."

Yu Chuan scoffed: "Believe it or not, you are simply stubborn."

After speaking, he pulled Yan Xi's arm and was about to leave.

Seeing the reaction of the two of them, Wu Yuan himself felt a little trembling.Opening his mouth to refute is a subconscious action, but it is also an indisputable fact that he lost his memory at night.

This symptom started a year ago when the thing behind the wishing house had an accident and then it became increasingly difficult to control.

Could it be that his amnesia is related to that thing?

"Yan Xi," he said suddenly, "Do you still remember the reason why you came to the prayer room to find me?"

"Naturally remember."

"I've changed my mind. I can tell you the location of the barrier right now, but I have one condition."

Yan Xi glanced at Yu Chuan, nodded and said, "Say it."

"There is a monster in the mountains and forests in the southwest of Chuanxiang County, which is transformed into a green lamp. You bring this lamp back, and I will tell you."

-----------

The mountain forest in the southwest is a low shrub forest, standing obliquely on the hillside, the hillside is not steep, and it is almost level with the earth.

The outermost layer is covered with this low shrub with slender leaves and thick branches.

The innermost layer has a hole in the sky.

Yan Xi pushed aside the trees and walked in, and saw the lush path, the traffic in the rice paddies, the smell of chickens and dogs, and the sparse huts standing on the side of the path, which looked like a village.

The village is backed by the forest, and the front is the sea.The villagers live by the forest and live by the sea.

It looked peaceful and peaceful, and there was nothing wrong with it.

This road is deserted, but there is such a village inexplicably near the place where Qingxing Lantern Demon is about to approach. It is so weird that we have to guard against it.

Yu Chuan used the branches to cover his figure, and lowered his voice carefully: "Xixi, this village looks a bit strange, be careful, don't startle the snake."

"I know." Yan Xi glanced at him, then frowned: "Why do you have to follow? Before I came, I saw that Wu Yuan's reaction was very wrong, and I obviously asked you to stay and watch him. And Xiaohu disappeared again yesterday, What if it returns to the wishing house and finds that I'm not there?"

"If it's not there, it's very safe. You are the most dangerous person now. You suspect that five yuan is not good enough to pay you out, why do you still listen to him? Can you handle it if I don't follow you?"

"Why can't you handle it?"

"Tough mouth."

"Mikawa!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything." He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, glanced at the scene not far away from the corner of his eye, and suddenly pointed out: "Xixi, look at that."

-------

At the foot of Xuanqing Mountain in Kyoto.

The sky is clear blue, high and clean.The sky in the river is untouched by clouds, the light blue sky is trimmed with light yellow gold edges.

The distant mountains contain Dai, and the breeze brings warmth.

A young girl was bouncing along the mountain with a mahogany sword on her back, holding a dog's tail grass picked from the side of the road in her hand, twisting the roots of the grass and turning it back and forth.

She has dark, waist-length hair tied loosely behind her head.The black clothes are dotted with sporadic ocher flowers, and the hem of the clothes draws a graceful arc in the air with the pace of advancement.

She was walking slowly, but suddenly stopped in place, her almond eyes looked warily at the pheasant that appeared in front of her.

— a little hungry.

— want to eat.

Perhaps after staying in the mountains for a long time, the pheasant had no defense against strangers at all. Seeing the girl approaching it, it just pecked its wings leisurely.

The girl rubbed her hands together and threw herself forward.

Immediately, chicken feathers flew in all directions, and the rooster crowed into the sky.

She looked under her body again, and she missed it.

The pheasant that was supposed to be in her arms was being held up in the air by an invisible thin thread with its eyes rolling, its wings fluttering helplessly in the air.

"Want?" A deep voice mixed with a touch of magnetism said.

The girl followed the prestige, and saw a man sitting on a tree branch not far away. He had long fiery red hair, delicate and handsome features, and a faint light shone from his body.

The ears are pointed and have a transparent luster.There seemed to be a faint smile in the dark eyes.

The girl asked, "Who are you?"

The man didn't answer, he just looked at her with a pair of deep eyes, his red hair burned his heart like fire, and he felt a little pain.

He didn't say a word, and the demeanor around him was intimidating.

"Who the hell are you?" The girl suddenly became vigilant.

-------

"What are you doing?" Yan Xi looked in the direction of Yu Chuan's finger.

In the distance, I saw a high platform in the village, surrounded by fluttering red flags, and tassels swaying slowly with the breeze.

There was a boy kneeling in the middle of the high platform. He looked only twelve or thirteen years old, with thin clothes and a thin figure.

He kneeled devoutly on the ground, clasped his hands together, and kept muttering to himself.

Yu Chuan stared at him for a while, then suddenly frowned, "Prying into the will of heaven... such a young child has the ability to predict the future."

Yan Xi repeated: "Prediction? He is a mortal, how can a mortal have such an ability?"

"I don't know, do you want to go and see?"

"……it is good."

Yu Chuan pinched a secret formula, covered him and Yan Xi, and then sneaked into the village.

Behind the boy gathered a lot of villagers, all of them were worried, but there was a little bit of happiness in their worries.

A woman said: "God bless, I hope Huang'er's divination will be successful."

"Sister-in-law Li, don't worry, I believe Huang'er will not let us down. He is our God of Blessing. Isn't Huang'er sent by God to make our village safe from now on?"

"I hope so too, but Huang'er's complexion hasn't been very good these two days, and I'm worried that he won't be able to take it anymore."

"Relax, you'll be fine."

After they said this, the kneeling boy on the high platform finally stood up. When he turned his head, Yan Xi saw his appearance. His face was pale, his features were fine, his figure was thin, and he looked a little distressing.

Huang'er walked down the high platform slowly. This time, praying for things took more effort than before. He could clearly feel that his physical strength was draining, but it took a lot of effort to walk a few steps.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and murmured: "The god said that there will be heavy rain in two days. All aunts and uncles must not go to sea at that time. Do a good job of drainage in the next two days to prevent the heavy rain from destroying the house in two days."

Mrs. Li took two quick steps to meet him, took out a handkerchief from her bosom to wipe his sweat, and asked, "Huang'er, why do you look so bad?"

"Huang'er is fine, Mrs. Li doesn't have to worry."

……

Yan Xi took all this into her eyes. She glanced at the sky, then turned to ask Yu Chuan: "Is what that kid said true? The art of star trail, sunshine and rain has long been lost, and even I can't understand the changing weather. He is a child The child can do it?"

"Who knows?" Yu Chuan looked around intentionally or unintentionally.

Seeing his casual expression, Yan Xi knew that he wouldn't listen to what she said, so she stopped talking.When she was about to look towards the high platform again, Yu Chuan suddenly hugged her from behind, folded his hands in front of Yan Xi to hold her arm that was about to be raised, then lowered his head, and smiled ambiguously.

He lowered his voice and said, "Don't move, I have something to say."

Unlike his frivolous movements, his voice is serious and heavy.

"There are people watching us around, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds."

"...You can talk from a distance."

Yu Chuan turned a deaf ear: "Don't worry, he's not hostile right now."

"Gone?"

"kindness."

"Then can you let me go?"

"Hmm..." Yu Chuan raised his eyebrows, rubbed his thumb on her shoulder twice, and then slowly lowered his hand.

--

It was getting late, and the two of them sneaked into the village and slipped outside the little boy's house.

The villagers enshrined the boy named "Huang'er" as a god, and specially built him a tile house next to the Sea God Temple in the village. Although the house was not magnificent, with gold, jade and green tiles, the conditions were better than many villagers lived in. Everywhere is good.

Yan Xi ducked and hid at the window, and then Guanghui Yuehua quietly looked inside, a slender hand crossed to block his eyes.

Suddenly it was pitch black.

"What are you doing?"

Yu Chuan exerted a little force, and Yan Xi was dragged back a few steps.He stood where Yan Xi was standing just now, and looked inside with her just now posture.

Then he said softly: "Whether a man or a woman can kiss each other, a little boy is also a man, I can do this kind of thing myself."

"..." He is only 12 years old, how about you?

……

The room was silent, and there was a rough outline on the bed vaguely, and the thin quilt slowly rose and fell against the breath.Yu Chuan pondered for a moment, then drew his right index finger together in the air, and a silver thread flew towards the little boy's bed following the direction of his hand.

Turning a few turns in front of the bed, a dash burrowed into the little boy's body.

He closed his eyes, his thoughts wandered along the thread in the boy's memory.

Suddenly, the silk thread turned into brilliance and scattered in the air. Yu Chuan opened his eyes, his face changed slightly, "It has the seal of a god? It really is not an ordinary person."

"God?" Yan Xi murmured.

If she remembers correctly, there are no gods in the Yin-Yang Illusion, so what is the god Yu Chuankou is talking about?

"'Gods'," he changed the subject and sneered, "How could there be gods here? This place in Shenzhou has been..." He said this, but changed the subject: "It's not gods, but some comfortable and long-lasting people. It’s really ridiculous that a monster who has died, after being worshiped by mortals, thinks he has become a god, and still tries to use his power to pity the world.”

"What happened to Shenzhou?"

Yu Chuan smiled softly: "I'm just complaining, Xixi doesn't have to take it to heart."

"..." I don't know if it's an illusion, but Yan Xi saw that his eyes were full of ridicule and disdain, and even looked at him with fear.

--

The window of Huang'er's house was opened a crack, the evening wind blew through, the flames of the oil lamps in the house flickered for a while, and then calmed down.

Yan Xi stared at the oil lamp in a daze.

— Sleeping with the lights on?

She stared at it for a long time, her eyes moved suddenly, she patted Yu Chuan on the shoulder and asked, "Do you feel that the oil lamp in the room is brighter than before?"

"Have it?"

Yan Xi took another look at the oil lamp, but she didn't seem to see any difference, so she shook her head: "Maybe I misread it, and I can't tell what it is... Yu Chuan! Listen, what is this sound?"

A deafening sound came from the sea not far ahead, rumbling against the ears.

Yu Chuan also heard this voice, he raised his breath suddenly, picked up Yan Xi and jumped onto the roof.

Looking from a distance, I saw a few feet high wind and waves on the sea surface, roaring and pressing towards the village, like a maddened demon coming madly with the force of a hurricane.

What's even more strange is that the sky above the sea is full of strong winds, thunder and clouds, and heavy rain pours down.However, the moon and stars are sparse on the ground, and the sky is clear.

The sound of the storm became louder and louder, and the villagers came out of their homes one after another, arm in arm, shoulder to shoulder, and hid in front of the house with panicked faces.

"W-what's the matter?"

"Didn't Huang'er say that the heavy rain will be two days away? What happened on the sea?"

The crowd chattered endlessly, and suddenly there was another thunderclap, and a villager knelt on the ground with his legs bent, kowtowing and crying tremblingly, "The Sea God is angry, the Sea God is angry!"

Panic filled the air like smoke and quickly spread to the hearts of every villager.

two.

five.

All the villagers knelt on the ground one after another, kowtowing toward the sea.

This scene made Yan Xi very uneasy, she turned her head and asked, "Yu Chuan, are there really monsters in that sea?"

He shook his head: "I can't smell any monsters. But this rain came from a strange place, and according to the villagers, that boy is proficient in divination, so how could he not detect this heavy rain?"

"Let me just say, there is no one who can predict the art of star rain and weather."

"It's impossible for ordinary people, but he is not ordinary."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Look," Yu Chuan raised his chin and pointed his eyes at the group of villagers on the ground, "This boy appeared here out of thin air. No one taught him magic since he was a child, but he knows the art of divination. It can only show that he is a natural talent. Can such a person be called an ordinary person?"

Just when they were talking, Huang'er had already walked out of the house and stood in front of the villagers with an indistinguishable dazed expression.

Not long after, the sound of the waves gradually weakened, panting and receding from the land.

Fortunately, the village is not close to the sea, the wind and waves only flooded some long-abandoned farmland at the entrance of the village, and no villagers were injured or injured.

After the tragedy, there was a mess.

The person who took the lead in kneeling at the beginning rushed to Huang'er, pointed to his nose and asked, "Why didn't we predict the heavy rain tonight? If it weren't for the shallow sleep and the fast receding waves, the people in the village might So what’s going on with you because of the mourning name? The whole village has raised you so much without food and clothing, and let you kneel on the stage and read a few slogans. Can’t you do such a simple thing?”

Faced with such accusations, Huang'er remained silent.

Because even he himself didn't understand why the divination would go wrong.

The villagers standing in a group, the boy in silence.

Yu Chuan took all this confrontation into his eyes, and then sneered: "Humans really only know how to repay kindness and revenge."

After he finished speaking, he noticed that the girl beside him seemed to be human too, so he quickly added: "Of course, except for Xixi."

Yan Xi smirked and ignored it.His eyes were fixed on the situation below.

Facing the accusations of the crowd, Huang'er stood alone and lowered his head, neither explaining nor refuting.

Just when the atmosphere reached the climax of stalemate, the woman who cared about Huang'er's body in the daytime rushed through the crowd, panting, and stretched her arms to protect him behind her.

"He's just a child, it's too much for you adults to be so aggressive! Ask yourself, how many times has Huang'er saved us? With just one mistake, you can call him worthless! Human beings, compassionate How can you accuse him so indiscriminately?"

The surrounding villagers seemed to be touched by these words, and the tension between life and death gradually dissipated, their tone became much calmer, and they were no longer so excited.

"Sister-in-law Li, we know that you treat Huang'er well, but this time it's really too dangerous!"

"Sister Li, you can't spoil him like this, something big will happen sooner or later."

"..."

The villagers talked to each other and saw that the woman was indifferent, so they had to sigh and turn to leave.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and after a while, only Aunt Li and Huang'er were left.

She touched his head comfortingly, her eyes were a little red, "I saw that your complexion was not right during the day today, you have to take care of your body. Aunt Li knows that Huang'er is a good boy. Don't worry about what everyone said." Take it to heart, they forgot, Mrs. Li didn't forget, because of you, how many times everyone has escaped from the dead, you are the little hero of our village, and you have always been."

Huang'er's head, which had been lowered all the time, finally lifted up. He pursed the corners of his lips and nodded slightly.

Seeing Mrs. Li leaving, Yan Xi and Yu Chuan jumped off the roof.

As soon as their feet touched the ground, the boy who was about to go back to the house suddenly moved his ears and stopped.

Yan Xi's face changed drastically: "Have you held the Yinshen Art yet?"

"Pinch it," Mikawa said indifferently, "but it's useless to him."

As if to confirm Yu Chuan's words, Huang'er turned around and looked at Yan Xi, her dark eyes stared straight at her: "I have felt that someone is following me since the daytime, is it you?"

"Uh... yes."

"You...can you help Huang'er? Huang'er knows that you are not an ordinary person." He took two steps forward and said, "Recently, my divination technique has become more and more inaccurate. Huang'er has secretly tried it several times. Every time, mistakes were made, but everyone didn’t know it. The villagers’ uncle and aunt were so kind to Huang’er, and Huang’er wanted to do something for them.”

At the end, his dark eyes were full of earnestness: "Sister, I beg you, Huang'er."

Yan Xi was surprised by this boy's incomparably keen intuition, but she wasn't too surprised when her identity was revealed, instead she followed his words and asked, "Do you know that every divination consumes your energy?"

Huang'er lowered her eyes.

"You know, right?" Seeing his reaction, Yan Xi understood everything: "How can the way of heaven be easily comprehended? How can you change the trajectory of destiny by yourself? They should have died in a shipwreck, but you To save their lives, if one person changes, countless people will be involved, ten in a row, ten in a row, and you can't bear the consequences."

Huang'er was silent for a long time, just when Yan Xi thought he couldn't speak, he suddenly said: "What is the way of heaven? Huang'er doesn't know, and Huang'er doesn't want to know. Could it be that uncles who died at sea to support their families is the way of heaven Is it the way of heaven that people in this village are dying bit by bit? Then who said that my appearance was not arranged by the way of heaven? Since I was arranged to appear in this village, I should try my best to make them live better, isn’t that right? "

Yan Xi was dumbfounded.

It is said that gods are ruthless and ghosts are ruthless.

This child has the power of divination beyond the power of gods and ghosts, and also has a kind heart that gods and ghosts cannot match.

----

Yan Xi finally softened his heart and told him the way to protect his heart.

On the second day, Huang'er accepted the method of cultivating mind power, and specially performed another ceremony at noon, hoping to divination the latest results for everyone.

Perhaps Yan Xi's method is effective. He is not particularly weak after divination this time. Fortunately, there has been no heavy rain or waves in the past five days. Villagers can take advantage of these days to go hunting at sea and store some food.

Although there was a mistake in the last divination, the villagers still believed in his ability from the bottom of their hearts, and this time he was so sure that everyone believed his statement as a matter of course.

Don't rush too early, immediately get rid of the sea in the afternoon.

As a result, it was this trip to sea that caused a catastrophe.

That afternoon, a huge wave broke out at sea, and all five fishermen died at the bottom of the sea, and never survived.

The fisherman's family who heard the news were devastated, and rushed to Huang'er's house with a sickle and sticks without even attending to the funeral.

If he hadn't promised that there would be no waves today, how could his family have gone out to sea without taking any protective measures?If he hadn't encouraged him to go fishing, how could his family have died? !

If it wasn't for him...if it wasn't for him...it would be fine.

The scene of that night reappeared again. He stood alone in front of the door, with a group of angry villagers in front of him, each of them gritted their teeth and wanted to execute him on the spot.

I don't know who asked the question first: "Will Huang'er do something to offend the Sea God? Could it be because of him that the Sea God is angry?"

"is this real?"

"If this is true, shouldn't we sacrifice him to the Sea God to keep everyone safe?"

"Yes, sacrifice!"

"Sacrifice!"

"Sacrifice!"

One said this, two said this, and at the end, all the villagers raised their fists and shouted indignantly: "Sacrifice! Sacrifice!"

Yan Xi wanted to rush down and explain to them that the shipwreck in the afternoon was nothing to blame, natural disasters and man-made disasters, even the gods could not avoid it, how could they mere mortals contend with it?

But Yu Chuan suddenly grabbed her arm, shook his head and advised: "You can't go down. How do you explain to them that you appeared here out of thin air? How do you explain your relationship with Huang'er? They are determined to execute Huang'er now, You're only going to make things worse."

"Then what should I do? I am also responsible for this matter. If I hadn't promised Huang'er to teach him how to recover his mental strength and give him hope, he wouldn't be so sure to tell the villagers that there is nothing wrong with the divination results and it's all mine. wrong."

"Xixi, calm down. Do you still remember that I told you that someone is watching us? Things are far from being as simple as they appear."

As they were talking, those villagers had already tied up Huang'er and escorted him to the sea in front of the village entrance.

This child, he exhausted his efforts to keep the villagers safe here, and he was also sent to a dead end here.

--

At this moment, an oil lamp was still burning in Huang'er's house.

Even though there was no one in the room, a faint murmur could be heard.

"What? You said you wanted to hear my story? Do you really want to hear it?"

"If you want to hear my strange stories so much, then you have to be prepared to hear the sunrise."

"I recorded many, many ghost stories, and I practiced telling these stories repeatedly until I could blurt them out. That was the happiest time, and I spent 99 nights like this..."

"Until the hundredth night, I met him, that boy who possesses abilities that ordinary people cannot possess, but is too kind."

"His story...heh"

"Once upon a time there was a village by the sea that was hit by a tsunami. But the whole village lived by the sea and did not want to move away from the sea. So they prayed to the gods to bless them. Finally, the gods gave them a child."

"This kid has a unique talent - precognition. He knows everything that is about to happen. From when a butterfly will fall by the window to when a tsunami will destroy the village, he knows it all."

"When the prophecy was wrong for the first time, everyone just laughed and didn't blame the child. But slowly, the blame also began."

"Finally, someone suggested that since this child has lost the ability to predict, it is better to give up this child and dedicate him to the Sea God. Maybe the disaster can be quelled."

"The child, with pain all over his body, sobbed under the watchful eyes of the whole village, walked into the boundless night, into the cold waves. When the sea water submerged the child, a huge wave rose up in the sea and submerged him. The village and everyone. Stupid humans, do you know how much it costs to blaspheme God's favor?"

"How can you bear the cold water?"

He is such a kind child, how could those stupid people treat him like this?With a lot of resentment and unwillingness to set off a storm, I want them to disappear into the world together.

After all, with you all accompanying Huang to die together, he will never be alone, will he?

This is really the safest way.
