Chapter 48 The Demon Exorcist Doesn’t Exorcise Demons (8)
After putting the little princess in her arms on the bed, Shisui immediately picked up her tool to wake Wenzhu up.
"Baihui, Shuigou, Fengfu..."
Shi Sui silently recited the acupoints Haitang taught her, took out a long and thick silver needle, suppressed the fear in her heart, clenched her trembling hands, and performed acupuncture on Princess Wenzhu.
Pierce, rotate...
It was clearly piercing someone else's body, but why did Tokiho feel inexplicable phantom pain when she saw the needle piercing her skin?
Damn!
Although the process was frightening for her, fortunately the result was perfect.
All three needles were inserted smoothly and accurately into the acupoints.
Haitang had previously explained that Princess Wenzhu had been in a coma for too long and it might take a long time to wake her up.
But Shisui was also anxious.
She didn't have much time to wait.
At this moment, Princess Wenzhu's daughter, the furry little fox demon, seemed to recognize that this was her mother, and she consciously crawled out of Shisui's arms, put her face in the crook of Princess Wenzhu's neck, and tickled her with her two little ears.
Perhaps there was telepathy between mother and daughter. Less than two minutes later, Princess Wenzhu's fingers suddenly moved!
Shi Sui quickly followed Zhao Haitang's instructions and continued to rotate and deepen the three needles in turn.
"Water..." Princess Wenzhu finally regained some consciousness. She called out in a weak voice, "Water..."
Shisui immediately used a spoon to get some water and slowly fed it into her mouth through the corners.
Princess Wenzhu fluttered her eyelashes slightly, then fell silent. After a moment, she finally managed to open her eyes, only to subconsciously close them again and then slowly try to open them again.
Princess Wenzhu didn't have time to show her surprise when facing Shisui, a stranger in the room. Her attention was completely attracted by the cute little girl next to her face.
"This... this is..." Princess Wenzhu uttered a few words with difficulty.
Someone who has just woken up should not be too excited. If she knows now that the little princess is her daughter, then there will be no way to talk about other things.
"This is the little cat demon I raised."
Shi Sui hardened her heart and, taking advantage of the fact that Princess Wenzhu's current vision angle could not see the little princess's nine tails, she picked up the little princess first, stuffed her back into her arms, and covered her with clothes, leaving only her face exposed.
She said to Princess Wenzhu solemnly, "Time is limited. I will explain everything I am going to say word for word. Please trust me!"
Shi Sui briefly recounted the purpose and process of her coming to Huitou Village, and the matters entrusted to her by Bu Yuchuan and his son.
"Although demon hunters make their living by collecting fees and completing commissions, I also have my own principles," Shi Sui said earnestly. "I will not do anything that is against human nature, no matter how much money I am paid."
Princess Wenzhu listened patiently, staring at Shisui's face without blinking, as if trying to find some flaw in her eyes.
Even Tokisui, who had no ulterior motives, felt a little nervous under her stare.
"Princess Wenzhu, although I have no evidence to prove myself, but—"
Princess Wenzhu suddenly raised her right hand gently: "...Help me."
Shi Sui quickly went to the end of the bed and brought over several quilts, padded the backrest, and then carefully and slowly helped Princess Wenzhu sit up.
"Ahem... Yuchuan's path is getting worse and worse. It's really a misfortune for our family."
The first words Princess Wenzhu said were that she disliked her nephew, which surprised Shisui greatly.
It seems that she had known Bu Yuchuan's personality for a long time, so she did not question what Shi Sui, a stranger, said.
From Princess Wenzhu's fragmented description, Shisui learned the truth of what happened that year.
It turns out that the Bu family has passed down a "monster contract" from generation to generation.
That was more than 300 years ago, when the monsters in the Twenty-Nine Cities of the Western Regions and the Jinge Desert were fighting each other, an ancestor of Princess Wenzhu accidentally saved the life of the Nine-Cloud Fox Demon. The Nine-Cloud Fox Demon, who was grateful, signed a contract with their family.
As long as they find him with this contract, the Nine Cloud Fox Demon will obey all their orders.
"The contract is not indefinite... three times. We can send him three times in total."
Princess Wenzhu, a sixty-year-old woman, actually had a evasive look in her eyes when she talked about this old story.
"This monster contract is the Bu family's heirloom, but I, young and ignorant, ruined it..."
The "Monster Contract" is passed down from father to son, not from father to daughter. Princess Wenzhu had no idea such a thing existed. However, she was very lively and mischievous since she was a child. At the age of seven, she sneaked into her father's study and found this treasure after searching through all the boxes and cabinets.
"At that time, I had just learned to read. I thought the words written on the contract were very novel, so I summoned the Nine Cloud Fox Demon without thinking..."
Shisui asked with a frown, "What happened after you summoned him? You were only 7 years old at that time! How could you have a one-night stand???"
"After I met him, I gave him a second mission order. I told him to come back and marry me when I was 17 years old."
? ? !!
Tokiho was completely stunned!!!
She tried to hypnotize herself: "Such a ridiculous request... Nine Cloud Fox Demon won't do it, right? Absolutely not, right?"
"The purpose of the contract is to obey all orders completely... If he hadn't kept his promise, how could all this trouble have happened to me today?"
At that time, the Nine Cloud Fox Demon had a face as white as jade, eyes like stars, and a pair of golden pupils that flashed like lightning, making people dare not look directly at it.
He was wearing a pure white brocade gown, with fiery red hair and a domineering nine-tailed fox, showing his noble and graceful demeanor.
The little Princess Wenzhu fell in love with him at first sight, and made a childish wish, "When I grow up, you must come back and marry me."
She is now gray-haired, but when she recalls this scene that happened almost fifty years ago, her face is still full of shyness and her body is covered with pink bubbles.
Tokiho admitted defeat.
Women are girls until they die.
But……
As a demon hunter, Tokiho still had to pour cold water on Princess Wenzhu: "...Unlike humans, demons are actually creatures without emotions."
"I know." Princess Wenzhu said calmly, "I was the one who had unrequited love from the beginning to the end."
