Chapter 110

Yu Tu stared at the two lines of words for a long, long time.

In the black and gray "cloud", the light spots of light with light white and gold suddenly went out, which meant that the soul... was gone.

In other words, the spirits of this period have disappeared forever.

Perhaps a hundred or a thousand years from now, if this hospital still exists, it can give birth to new souls.

But that spirit will never be Zang Sheng again.

Just as it is impossible for a person to step into the same river twice, it is impossible for the same soul to be born twice.

Since that day, Yu Tu never saw Zang Sheng in the hospital again.

It turns out that real parting is so sudden.

He lost a friend.

Yu Tu's hands were shaking a little. He flipped the biography forward to the scene where the Marquis of Buye was holding a lantern and looking at the sky. The mountain drawn in the background should be Mount Tai, which was built in imitation of the ancient Mount Tai. Inside the ancient seal, a fly was suppressed.

Fei is a catastrophic beast. Wherever it goes, it brings disease, danger and misfortune.

However, Wutong Town was the least affected town in Chongming City except Huailin Town, which is totally unscientific.

The reason for Huailin Town was that they had already dismantled the "materials" there before the formation was launched. Wutong Town, as the core point of the recovery formation, should normally be the location with the heaviest casualties.

Yu Tu didn’t know whether Zang Sheng’s disappearance was related to the ancient sealing formation or the recovery formation. The process could not be traced back, but the result had already happened.

During the tea break, Song Tu and Liu Jia conveyed some news to him. It seemed that the disaster beast Fei on Mount Tai was not dead. Based on the notes left by the Phoenix before its Nirvana, Director Jiang triggered the backup plan left by the Phoenix in the seal array, and severely damaged Fei, who had been sealed for a thousand years.

Afterwards, the Alien Bureau invited a great man to come out of the mountains, and use a formation to change the terrain of Mount Sitai, sealing Fei nearly a hundred meters underground. At the same time, a new formation was used to destroy it. In ten years at most, it would completely disappear in the sealing formation, and there would be no more disaster beast Fei in the world.

As for the eye that appeared in the core of the complex formation...

Yu Tu initially thought that the people who set up the formation wanted to use the resurrection formation to allow Fei Chong, who had been sealed for a thousand years by the ancient sealing formation, to come out into the world, so as to disrupt the peace and tranquility of the world. However, Yu Tu recalled carefully afterwards—

The eyes are wrong.

The dragon's eyes are similar to those of a cow, but its head is white. The eyes of the dragon should be more like those of a cow, but the pupils of a cow are round. The pupils of the dragon's eyes that appeared that day were narrow and scarlet, which made it look more like a snake. The dragon's eyes are said to look like rabbits, but rabbits don't have narrow pupils either. Instead, the dragon's eyes only fit the characteristic of being "red".

The dense and chaotic details pile up together, lacking only a crucial thread that connects them all.

According to Liu Jia and Song Tu, they arrived in Wutong Town within a few days and have been waiting for him to come back. The details are not too detailed but it is a highly confidential piece of information. Not to mention whether they can get it accurately, they will never reveal it privately without Jiang Jiang's permission. This has nothing to do with their personal feelings, but is the firm stance and bottom line they must uphold due to their identities.

Since he was told the news, Jiang Jiang, or Director Jiang, wanted him to provide the "clue" - the eye of the Fu Su formation and the location of the reverse fountain, and who its owner is.

Yu Tu's eyes moved to a small stack of talismans next to the teacup - they were left behind by Song Tu before he left, all of them were one-way sound transmission notes.

Yu Tu stood up, took one and twisted it in his hand.

The talisman paper spontaneously combusted without fire from the bottom. After it was completely burned out, only a pale yellow rectangular outline remained. Jiang Jiang's voice came out from it:

"Mr. Buyehou."

There was no surprise in her voice, as if she had anticipated this scene.

"The core of the recovery formation is not Fei." Yu Tu closed his eyes slightly, thinking about the ending of the comic in his mind, and his voice was terribly cold. "You may know what it is better than me."

After saying this, without waiting for Jiang Jiang to reply, he immediately dispersed the color in the air—this one-way note was completely scrapped.

Yu Tu did not say more, nor did he try to find out more. People often make more mistakes the more they talk.

From the first time that Buyehou appeared in the comics, he discovered that Tianyan was intentionally helping him establish his style. Or in other words, Tianyan was consciously shaping Buyehou into a person with an ancient origin and a mysterious identity.

He once took a risk and tried to do some things that were inconsistent with his pseudonym in the identity of Buyehou without anyone around. In other words, it was OOC.

Tian Yan never draws anything involving ooc. He even presents some important things in a fragmented way in the form of comics as Yu Tu encounters more and more mysteries.

Especially in the recent updates, it seems as if Tianyan knows something but cannot express it directly, so he can only add it to the comics.

Yu Tu felt...Tian Yan was anxious.

It's as if he's afraid that it's too late.

Before reading the comics, he didn't want to have too much contact with the official, for fear that capable people would see that he was a fake. But after reading the comics, Yu Tu finally took the risk and contacted Jiang Jiang.

He didn't want to mislead people, so he only said something that seemed to be true. If Jiang Jiang really knew some secrets, she would know that what he said was correct. If the Alien Bureau really wanted to solve some mystery, Jiang Jiang would definitely find a way to contact him.

Because to others, the origin of the Buye Marquis is a mystery, but it seems to be closely related to the distant past. People like this often have many secrets.

If you want to get their secrets, you must show enough sincerity in exchange for something of equal value.

Yu Tu put the remaining one-way notes into the drawer and reviewed the updates of these two episodes again.

In the comics, Yu Tu always felt that he had seen the profile of the boy who was imprisoned on the ice platform and called "Xiao Wan" by the president of Miller College somewhere, but he couldn't remember where for a moment.

[It's been 18 years...Are you sure it's him? ]

Yu Tu read this sentence several times.

Another eighteen years passed.

He always felt that the number eighteen seemed to represent something.

Eighteen years ago, he was thrown into a forest and was later adopted by an orphanage. Eighteen years ago, Gu Hongying was born. Eighteen years ago, the Land of Happiness community was built and put on sale. Eighteen years ago, the fragments of the undissolved bones were stolen. Eighteen years ago, Zang Sheng took on a human form...

Maybe there were more things that happened eighteen years ago, but he is completely unaware of them now.

Yu Tu took a screenshot of this page, put it in his self-created memo, marked it, and then he continued to read on———

【Inside and outside world, only you can do it. 】

Yu Tu had been to the icy and snowy place inside the wall of Kunshan Mountain. The ice chains that half locked the young man and half locked the platform were not ordinary ice.

The inner world has been passed down for so many years, and there are countless talented people. Magical weapons and props are endless. Yu Tu doesn't believe that no one can deal with these chains.

Yingying is indeed the protagonist of the comic, and perhaps the responsibility of saving the world falls on his shoulders, but just because he is the protagonist doesn’t mean there is no logic.

These ice chains must be cut by Yingying herself... Why?

He also took a screenshot of this page and dragged it into the memo.

The more Yu Tu analyzed, the more headache he got. After all, he knew too little, so he couldn't piece together all these bits and pieces into a complete logical chain.

Yu Tu read the recent updates over and over again, and added some things to his memo. When he could no longer find any useful information, he closed the comic and clicked on the solo biography of Buye Hou again.

The content presented in the biography seems to be fine, but many things that happened are mixed up. He and Zang Sheng really became familiar with each other when they dealt with the powder that did not dissolve bones, but this scene was not drawn in the comics, and many things were mixed up.

If he had not experienced it personally, and the Nevernight Marquis was himself, from the perspective of an outsider, he would have felt that it was a pair of friends who had known each other for a long time, who met again after many years, and finally... parted forever.

The way the biography is drawn is very clever, as if it is a random snippet of a short period in the long life of Buyehou. He has made friends with countless "people" and said goodbye to countless "people"...

Tianyan, why do you draw it like this?

The more Yu Tu thought about it, the more his head hurt. He simply opened the comment button that he had closed, wanting to see what different interpretations he could get from the perspective of a comic reader.

He turned to the beginning and read page by page, and saw "Wuwuwuwu" comments on almost every page.

He slowly flipped through the pages and found that the mainstream comments were similar to what Yu Tu had guessed. Some people cursed Tian Yan for stabbing him with a knife, some felt sorry for Marquis Buye, some wondered if Marquis Buye was going to die, and more were curious about Marquis Buye's identity and origin.

This situation continued until the Never-Night Marquis in the comic bent down and picked up a transparent bead from the ground - it was accidentally brought in when he swept his sleeves from the antique display case while looking for a basket, and Zangsheng took the glass bead at that time.

Yu Tu remembered very clearly that Zang Sheng wanted to use it to reflect light spots to amuse the cat of the children in the ward.

Why do we need to emphasize the carving of this glass bead?

Yu Tu didn't think Tian Yan would go into such insignificant details. After turning a few pages, the comments from the comic readers gave him the answer.

He drew this glass bead because he put it back into the box after picking it up that day. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it because it was just an ordinary glass bead.

But comic readers... don't seem to think so.

Among the comments on this page, the comments with the highest number of likes and the most replies are as follows:

I have a bold guess.

The handwriting on the opened book that had been scrawled and reappeared shows that Zang Sheng is likely to have a pure heart.

After the death of the soul with a pure heart...

Could it be that the bead is the trace he left behind? 】

Many people in the comments agreed with her point of view and even cited examples that they thought were convincing.

[When a person dies, there are corpses; when a demon dies, there are remains; when a ghost dies, there are traces; when a spirit dies... there should be something left behind, right? ]

[If a soul leaves behind something like a bead after death... I have a very scary idea.]

[Assume that spirits with "pure hearts" will leave beads after death, and they are rarer than ordinary spirits...]

[The Never-Sleeping Marquis who has a box full of beads——]

[How long have you lived...?! ]
