Chapter 2491 Breath
Unexpectedly.
What unfolded was much more interesting than Xiao Xiao expected.
……
"Your breath?"
Xiao Xiao confirmed, "Only your breath?"
If Mei Nu's aura is just one of them, then it can be understood that the other party has been in contact with Mei Nu.
Maybe he is an "acquaintance" of Mei Nu.
If there was only...the scent of plum girl...
That would be strange.
……
"It's my breath..."
Plum Girl murmured.
"I didn't realize it right away..."
"Because this breath is no longer pure."
"Adulted with bad things."
……
"Bad stuff?"
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
……
"Master Xiao Xiao, where did you find it?"
Mei Nu raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Xiao.
……
"It's a long story at this point."
Xiao Xiao smiled slightly.
He narrated the story of Zhuge Yun smelling the fragrance of plum blossoms, and then they went looking for the fragrance, and finally found a small plum tree in the old man's yard.
……
As Xiao Xiao narrated, Mei Nu's face gradually showed a thoughtful look.
So much so that it didn't react until Xiao Xiao's voice stopped for a few seconds.
"Sorry."
Mei Nu lowered her head slightly.
It was a little distracted.
……
Xiao Xiao shook his head.
"Did you find something?"
……
"Yeah."
Mei Nu nodded.
"That branch should be part of my previous body."
……
Xiao Xiao's eyes widened for a moment.
"Is it a part of your previous body?"
……
"Yes."
After the initial surprise, the slightly complicated expression on Mei Nu's face gradually returned to its usual cold and indifferent look.
"When you found me, I only had one branch left."
"The rest I thought were all shattered and dissipated in the lightning strike."
"I didn't expect that one branch survived."
"I didn't even expect that that branch had some intelligence."
……
"It also became a monster?"
Xiao Xiao felt that the unfolding of things was really getting more and more interesting.
……
"It doesn't count."
Mei Nu shook her head.
It is extremely difficult to transform plants into demons.
It takes a long time and rare opportunities.
That branch only had some consciousness due to the thunder tribulation and the evil energy it released when it was going through the thunder tribulation. It was an extremely lucky coincidence.
No.
To say consciousness is not appropriate.
"In fact, it has not even produced its own consciousness."
"What it has is just an instinct."
……
"Instinct?"
Xiao Xiao's heart moved slightly.
……
"Yes."
Plum Girl nodded.
"The instinct of cultivation."
"Otherwise, the influence of the thunder tribulation and my demonic energy on it will soon disappear."
"It will turn back into an ordinary branch."
Mei Nu paused.
The hands folded on the abdomen could not help but shrink slightly.
"Master Xiao Xiao, is the owner of that courtyard feeling unwell?"
……
Hearing the string song knows the elegant meaning.
Xiao Xiao said with some clarity, "Is it related to that branch?"
……
"Yeah."
Mei Nu pursed her lips.
……
Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"This matter has nothing to do with you."
"You don't have to feel embarrassed."
……
After hearing Master Xiao Xiao's words, Mei Nu felt a little more relaxed.
But, having said that, the branch came from it after all. There is something emotional about it.
"Who would have thought it was such a coincidence...the owner of that house just bought a plum tree again..."
……
indeed.
Xiao Xiao nodded.
Mei Nu’s words solved the mystery of the sudden disappearance of branches in the old man’s narrative.
The branch is not missing.
Instead, it blends in with the plum trees on the side.
Just like the plum girl in front of him.
……
"Now that spiritual energy is weak, it is extremely difficult to cultivate monsters."
Mei Nu returned to the topic.
"It is exactly the time when a lot of spiritual energy is needed to consolidate one's own spiritual consciousness."
"It cannot obtain such a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth..."
"Only-"
"Take the wrong approach?"
Xiao Xiao answered.
Mei Nu nodded.
"This is the fastest way to practice."
"It is to directly absorb the essence of human beings for cultivation."
But this is already on the wrong track.
Even if you are lucky enough to practice all the way.
In the end, when encountering a thunderstorm, his soul will disappear.
From the jewelry that Master Xiao Xiao gave it just now, it can already feel the familiar evil spirit mixed with the turbidity.
Make it unhappy.
Or...disgust.
Perhaps it was this turbidity that prevented him from noticing his own scent on the jewelry in the first place.
Of course, after a long time, the breath becomes very light is also an important reason.
……
Xiao Xiao thought of the two old men's faces that were too old for their age.
He frowned.
Sure enough, there are many coincidences in the world.
But many things are often not coincidences.
The old man has just experienced the pain of the death of his grandson. Even if many people find their aging strange at first, when they think of the death of his grandson, they will feel a little understanding.
Even the two old men thought so if they were afraid.
Even he is no exception.
After all, there are too many similar plots in novels.
He also doesn't have the habit of thinking about monsters in everything.
……
"Master Xiao Xiao, could you please take me to where it is?"
Plum Girl lowered her head slightly.
"I got to the bottom of this matter."
"Of course it's up to me to solve it."
……
"Okay."
Xiao Xiao nodded.
……
Since he was going to take Mei Nu there, Xiao Xiao would not take the "ordinary path".
When the moon was in the sky, he asked Ah Jiu to cast a blind eye on him.
Then he called the Gu Diao to take him and Mei Nu to the old man's yard, which they had just visited during the day.
……
"Hoo~"
The cold wind is howling tonight, and at some point, the moon is blocked by drifting clouds.
The night is dark.
The residential area was dark.
……
Xiao Xiao landed lightly in the yard.
"Excuse me."
Unless necessary, he is not willing to do this kind of "trespassing into private homes".
That's why he deliberately left his accessories in the yard before.
Give yourself a legitimate excuse for your return.
But this time is different from last time.
For the safety of the two old people, etiquette is not the first issue that needs to be considered.
……
Without Xiao Xiao's introduction, Mei Nu had already set her sights on the small plum tree not far away.
The night did not hinder Mei Nu's vision much.
Rather...
Xiao Xiao looked at Mei Nu.
Because I am used to seeing plum girls in my yard.
The plum tree in the yard seemed to be emitting a halo of light in the night, so he had been ignoring it...
At this time, looking at Mei Nu outside...
It turned out that Mei Nu's whole body seemed to be shrouded in a thin layer of light.
It slightly illuminates the darkness in this courtyard.
……
What a dreamy scene.
Xiao Xiao was a little emotional.
Then he also turned his attention to the plum tree.
……
The plum girl walked into the little plum tree step by step and leisurely.
The yellow petals on the slender branches caught its eye.
It reaches out.
ps: Thank you Qianqiong Qianjue for the reward~(*︶*)!
