Chapter 551 "Water of Life"
"Because your condition is very unstable, I have to tie you up first. I'm sorry."
His burly and strong body was tightly bound by a colorful elemental chain under a kapok tree that was past its flowering period, unable to move at all.
"It doesn't matter..."
Moen's eyebrows were downcast and he was in a low mood. His voice did not have the murderous intent and coldness it had when he made the breakfast earlier. It just sounded good and hoarse and dry.
Half conscious, half mad, he was obviously in the former state now.
"Oh, by the way, did I hurt someone again?"
"No, I knocked you out in time." Ye Lin spread his hands and didn't say that the person you wanted to hurt was me. I was confused.
Mavis shook her head. It seemed that the other party's current state was not in a bad state. When he was in another state of madness, he couldn't even remember clearly.
"Thank you..."
Leaning his back on the kapok tree, Moen slowly closed his eyes and exhaled a long breath, as if he was glad that no one was hurt because of him, and also seemed to be helpless in some way.
Although his real age should be that of a healthy man, Moen now really looks like a dying old man, with his breath lingering like a candle in the wind.
The sunlight had already penetrated Sunan City and passed over the high wall of Feng Ling's house. It reflected quietly on a withered and bloodless face, seeming to have a touch of tranquility.
Just as Ye Lin was pondering whether to hand over the other party directly to the anti-demon group in the future, Moen, with his eyes closed, suddenly said:
"Donor, you seem to be very strong. Can I ask you a favor?"
"What happened?"
He didn't say yes or no. The two of them had only met each other for only one morning, and their real conversation in a sober state lasted only a few minutes.
"Seduce me with your demonic things, enchant me, and then kill me."
A slightly stunned and unbelievable request came out of Moen's mouth, filled with endless vicissitudes of life, not much trouble, only deep exhaustion.
"Why?" Ye Lin asked with a frown.
It seems that Moen's memory is not completely fuzzy. It seems that he only remembers three points. Is this sense of loss due to being contaminated with the breath of hell?
"When I am confused, send me away and I will feel less pain."
"However, there is no deep hatred between you and me. I probably can't help you with this matter, and I feel uneasy."
Ye Lin spread his hands and said that it was not easy to negotiate. How about you find a cliff of 100 meters and take a brave step.
Because his disciple was killed, Moen went astray and acted in extreme ways. He was a little paranoid and killed every time he encountered evil, but there might be a way to save him.
Moreover, Gu Yu, who was holding the cold Zen staff, had not yet responded with an answer as to whether it was possible or not. Whether the breath of the underworld could be used.
"My soul is already on the edge of the underworld. Neither life nor death, nor death nor life, affects my rationality. Why don't you call the Xuzu Anti-Devil Group, Guangyuan or Xinzang."
Moen's face was thin and expressionless, but Ye Lin still saw a deep sense of regret and misguided remorse.
Those who kill living creatures will fall into hell forever!
Mavis quietly tugged on his sleeve and gestured to go to the side to speak. Only Gu Yu was still frowning and carefully feeling the coldness of Moen's Zen staff.
"He may be hopeless. His body has been almost invaded by the aura of the underworld, and he has been in this state for too long. Yuena may not be able to purify this aura without hurting his body."
As the messenger of Hades Usil, Mavis's words are absolutely convincing. Moen's condition is not optimistic and is in danger.
"Then it's still possible? Resurrection coins?"
He wanted to reach for Mavis's soft little hand, but was easily avoided with a gesture of lifting her hair, and she glared at him with a cold face.
"Resurrection coins probably won't work either. His current state is more like a door to the underworld. How to close the door is the key." Mavis sighed.
"If there is really no other way, forget it."
Ye Lin didn't want to worry too much about how to deal with Moen who was in a dangerous state. At most, if Gu Yu really didn't understand, he could just give it to the Xu Ancestor Anti-Magic Group in the afternoon.
Although Moen is also a pitiful person, if Mavis decides that it is difficult to save him, then it will be difficult to use his claws even if they are numb.
Moreover, Mavis, as the messenger of Hades Usil, can actually summon the cold breath of the underworld to help Gu Yu complete his realm breakthrough. Moen is just a better and more convenient substitute.
…………
The sun was in the middle, and it was lunch time. Siatt and the others did not come back from shopping. They probably ate on the street. Instead, a rather unexpected person came back.
The boss here is Wind Chime, and the diplomatic envoy Nuo Yu is wearing a gauze face and holding a folding fan. As if he had expected him to be here, Nuo Yu smiled elegantly, with a hint of undetectable joy, and joked: "Sir, the news about His Majesty's Suzaku headdress has been posted for several days. Are you planning to keep it as a collection?" ”
Feng Zhen is a highly respected Nian Qi master who also serves in the Xuzu royal family. Feng Ling once said that her brother had been sad for a long time because of the death of King Xian.
So he was not surprised at all that Nuo Yu could follow Feng Ling back, because Feng Ling also had an official position.
"Haha, I've been busy these past few days, but I forgot about it." Ye Lin patted his forehead, pretending to be annoyed.
"Forgot? Your Majesty will be very sad if he hears this reason."
On the other side, Feng Ling spread his hands to him and said that Nuo Yu followed him on his own initiative, not as an invitation. He just said that you might come to my house.
She took another look at Moen who was sitting quietly under the kapok tree, and asked Xiaoyu who this person was and why she hadn't seen him before.
"So sir, when are you going to see His Majesty Askar?"
There were stone tables and benches in the corner of the yard. Nuo Yu took a pot of hot water, took out tea leaves from the small pocket of the silk clothes around her waist, and skillfully brewed a cup of green tea.
Jade hands are mixing tea, and just watching this process is pleasing to the eye.
Moreover, Ye Lin recognized this kind of tea. It was the top-quality tea he asked for from Meiya when Nuo Yu left last time. Unexpectedly, the other party still kept it.
"After handling Moen's matter, I will go to see His Majesty the King."
Nuoyu's folding fan suddenly trembled. She was obviously surprised by Moen's name, but her excellent self-control made her respond with a calm smile.
Her gentle and elegant temperament can make even the most picky person about etiquette unable to point out any faults.
"When you first came to Suran City, I tracked down Master's dojo, but unfortunately, Master and the others went fishing."
There was a small sigh on her lips, and she remembered that Xi Lan asked her for a drink yesterday, and she felt a headache.
Due to Xi Lan's lazy personality, the dojo was run for two days and five days of fishing, and he was already unable to make ends meet.
Now he has to entertain guests from far away, A Ganzuo, and Xi Lan is extremely addicted to alcohol. The money from Shaying's part-time job is not enough to subsidize it.
It's not that she feels sorry for the money to buy wine, but that Xi Lan suffered from injuries when she was young. It's okay to have a few drinks, but frequent drunkenness will inevitably cause irreversible damage to the body.
"I usually try to add some vinegar, salt, etc., but Master is an alcoholic and doesn't care about it at all."
Now it's just casual chatting on weekdays, and Nuo Yu has slowly let go of her dignity and elegance, and instead looks like a big girl complaining about Xi Lan with disgust on her face.
Sipping the fragrant tea, the porcelain teacup and the stone table made a little crisp sound. When Nuoyu saw that the cup was empty, he immediately picked up the teapot with bare hands and filled the cup.
"I have a method, maybe I can give it a try." Ye Lin suddenly said.
"Nuoyu, I'm all ears."
He took out a bottle of wine with a simple packaging and placed it on the stone table. It didn't look like a very expensive thing, and Nuo Yu was a little confused.
But when she saw the name of the wine, her pretty face changed slightly and she lost her voice: "Water of life? Ninety-six degrees!"
Although the scope of application is very low, Nuoyu still knows that this kind of wine is a high-quality liquor that has gone through dozens of processes. One cup can make people feel butterflies in their stomachs and make their throats burn.
If it was Xi Lan's habit of drinking without knowing it, he would probably have to ask a professional team to bury it immediately to avoid the heat and stinky weather.
"Sir, this is a bit..."
Nuo Yu's beauty was a little pale. Although she didn't like her master Xi Lan's alcoholic character and often got drunk, she wouldn't let him go completely just by saying a bottle of wine.
Moreover, Xi Lan has a keen sense of smell, so this kind of strong alcohol may not be able to deceive him.
"Don't worry, I learned some techniques from the proprietress of the Moonlight Tavern. I mixed it with special materials and disguised it as ordinary liquor. This ensured that Xilan wouldn't have any abnormality after drinking it, but he would get drunk in one sip. Then, without knowing who was going on, he would strip naked and throw it on the street before he woke up. But come here, if he asks you for a drink again, give him this!”
Hearing this, Nuo Yu patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "This young lady is really ashamed of her talent."
Drinking is not only about getting drunk, but more importantly, the feeling of slowly getting up and floating like clouds during the drunken process.
If you have one or two friends and some side dishes, even low-alcohol fruit wine will be delicious.
But if you fall asleep after one gulp, you will completely lose the meaning of drinking and you will not be able to enjoy yourself to the fullest.
For an alcoholic, it is hellish torture.
