The awkward feeling in my heart was hard to get rid of, but it was not easy to blame this other self directly, so I sat there all night, feeling the cool breeze.
Yu Bie Liu felt that he seemed to have calmed down.
On the second day, Luo Jinzhi came out of his cultivation state and walked out of the simple wooden house while stretching his muscles.
At first glance, I saw someone holding a fruit in a trance and chewing it with a crunching sound.
When he saw the appearance of the fruit clearly, Luo Jinzhi suddenly felt a pain in his teeth.
If he remembered correctly, the purpose of picking this fruit was to use it for seasoning, because its juice was extremely sour and refreshing.
...What kind of blow did you suffer? Can't you even feel the pain?
Hearing the noise, Yu Bie Liu turned around, his eyes dim, "Brother, I'm hungry."
Luo Jinzhi: "..." I think you are not hungry, you are crazy!
He took a few steps forward, snatched the half-eaten fruit, threw it away, and took out the kettle and handed it over.
Yu Bie Liu was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a sour and astringent feeling that made him cry, which spread from the tip of his tongue to his entire mouth, and then to his entire body.
"I..." Yu Bieliu grabbed the kettle, poured the water into his mouth, and ran to the side to rinse his mouth.
"Tsk tsk!" Luo Jinzhi couldn't help but shake his head. "Why are you so attracted to this thing when you can't eat anything else?"
The pain was too sour and bitter, and Yu Bie Liu couldn't hold back her tears. With moist eyes, she muttered, "You're still blaming me. Isn't this the fruit you picked?"
"Huh?" Luo Jinzhi cried out in disbelief after being caught in the crossfire. He then shook his head, "Just so you know, I didn't bring this back for you to eat raw."
"Whatever... Puff!" Yu Bie Liu wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth, "It's all your fault anyway."
Luo Jinzhi was not feeling well.
What was going on? Did he catch her being shy, so she wasn't even willing to put on a facade? What was he trying to do by being so unreasonable?
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you yet, what happened yesterday?" Luo Jinzhi asked.
Judging from Yu Bie Liu's situation at the time, it seemed that he had discovered something wrong, so he sent him away and stayed alone.
This night has passed, so the matter should be clear now, right?
Speaking of this, Yu Bie Liu suddenly felt that the sourness in his mouth was really nothing.
It can't completely cover up the pain in my heart, okay?
With a heavy sigh, Yubieliu shook his head, "Don't ask, if you ask, it's nothing!"
Luo Jinzhi: “???” Looking at your state and listening to your answer, do you look like everything is fine?
Yu Bie Liu glanced at him, then sighed again.
What else could he say? Tell Luo Jinzhi the truth? Say that Yu Bie Liu had been tricked, and had unknowingly acquired a secondary personality.
This secondary personality fell in love with the child she raised. Was the emotion so strong that it affected her entire being?
"Wow~ I'm sorry >man
"...It's okay." Yu Bie Liu also replied in his mind, "I just couldn't wrap my head around it for a while, it will be fine after a while."
As for Luo Jinzhi... there's no need to know too much.
Seeing Yu Bie Liu turned around and continued to rinse his mouth, with no intention of explaining to him, Luo Jinzhi pursed his lips and his eyes darkened for a moment.
He also knew that after the previous incident where the two of them deceived each other, it had become very difficult for anyone to trust anyone else.
He didn't dare to trust Yu Bie Liu completely, and presumably, Yu Bie Liu didn't feel the same way.
However, knowing is not the same as understanding. This obviously distant attitude... makes me feel inexplicably lost in my heart!
"Okay, I'll go prepare something to eat." Luo Jinzhi turned around and packed up his things. "After we finish eating, let's go out for a while."
"Going out today?" Yu Bie Liu was puzzled. "Did something unexpected happen?"
"The incident was that damn old man you brought back, wasn't it?" Luo Jinzhi laughed. "How could the dignified Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Yan Dao Demon Sect come here alone?"
Yubieliu nodded.
Indeed, after being interrupted by her and directly kidnapping the leader, the team from the Yandao Demon Sect who came here to look for Luo Jinzhi must have panicked.
"So, how do you plan to deal with that old man?" Yu Bie Liu asked again, "Are you planning to let him go back?"
Luo Jinzhi stopped moving his hands, and said in a dull tone, "Yes, let him go back."
Yubieliu: "...He's got guts. If it were me, he'd be a corpse long ago."
The old man that Yubieliu brought back was named Zhou Jingxing, the deputy head of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Yandao Demon Sect, and also a well-known person in the Demon Realm.
The grudge between him and Luo Jinzhi can be traced back to the time when Luo Jinzhi was still a mortal slave.
Ah, yes, mortal slaves.
According to Luo Jinzhi, after he left the Luo family, he found it difficult to survive in the place where cultivators lived because of his young age and weak body, so he found an opportunity and ran to the area where mortals lived.
After being a beggar for a while, he was picked up by a human trafficker when he had a fever and was sold to a wealthy family.
The purpose of that family buying the slave was to use him, so naturally they would not be polite to him. You can imagine what kind of life he lived.
Unfortunately, although he came from the Luo family, a powerful demon cultivation world, and had the cultivation techniques in his mind, he could only be tortured by mortals because he was unable to practice.
At that time, he didn't know why he couldn't practice. He only knew that once he used the skills to mobilize spiritual power, he would face endless pain.
The meridians all over the body were aching, as if someone was cutting them with a knife again and again. In addition, even if he endured the pain and channeled spiritual power into his body, it would not stay there at all.
He vaguely sensed that there were several holes in his body and his meridians were broken... How could he become a cultivator with such a body?
So after trying a few times, I gave up.
He must find a way to repair his body and continue practicing.
The life of a slave was difficult. Not only did they not have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear, but they also had to endure beatings, scolding and humiliation from their masters at any time and anywhere.
If I hadn't harbored hatred in my heart, if I hadn't vowed long ago to make the Luo family pay the price, if I hadn't wanted to seek justice for my mother!
Although it was difficult, Luo Jinzhi persisted and was always planning to escape from there.
He succeeded, escaped from the sea of suffering, and plunged into the abyss.
He stumbled into a village and finally escaped from the pursuers and the life of slavery. But before Luo Jinzhi could be happy, he saw a village full of rotting corpses.
All the villagers in this village were poisoned and turned into poisonous corpses.
The poison spread throughout the entire village, and Luo Jinzhi's fate was doomed from the moment he walked in: as an ordinary person, he would only become one of these rotten corpses.
The person who poisoned was Zhou Jingxing.
