Awakening Day Collection

Chapter 47 Bloodline (4)
"The blood loss is too much, the body itself is weak, and there is no way to save it." Lu Hanyi leaned over to check, "But I have a way to make him awake for a few minutes before he dies. If you have any questions, you can ask quickly."

He stretched out his hand and pressed gently on Wan Dongfeng's neck, Wan Dongfeng coughed and really woke up.His eyes were a little confused, as if he couldn't understand what happened for a while, Feng Si couldn't wait to help him up: "Village Chief, let me just say it, the old ancestor has died, and you are going to die soon. "

"Old ancestor? It...already?" Wan Dongfeng looked horrified.But when he saw the two strange people behind Feng Si, he seemed to realize something: "I understand. This day will finally come, and I am relieved."

"I don't have time anymore. I just want to ask you to tell me, do you know the whereabouts of my grandfather...that is, the man in the photo? The man who forced you to worship your ancestor and keep him a secret?" Feng Si said.

"That person... I don't know where he went, but I believe you will see him." Wan Dongfeng said, "He once said that the reason why his family has hidden their ancestors here for generations is that It is to use the ancestors to find someone. I guess, you are that person, so he will take the initiative to find you."

This is wrong, Fons thought, my father found me 19 years ago, but my grandfather never showed up.Could it be... Could it be that grandfather actually didn't know his existence?

Father betrayed grandfather!Feng Si suddenly came to his senses.Although I don't know what kind of conflict happened between the father and son, but the father left his grandfather, quietly hid himself with him, and brought him up.What does grandpa want to do?What does father want to do?It seems that the mysteries are not getting fewer and fewer, but more and more.

"He also said that there is another purpose, but it is estimated that it cannot be achieved only through the ancestors," Wan Dongfeng continued, "He wants to study the ancestors and find the origin of the ancestors. He said that this matter is more important than Finding that person is still important, but he estimates that it will not be possible in his lifetime."

"Origin?" Feng Si was taken aback for a moment, but soon understood.Sure enough, grandfather, like Lu Hanyi and the others, wanted to discover the essence of the devil king by studying this devil servant.

What the hell is the devil?What does the devil want to do?
Wan Dongfeng finally swallowed his last breath.Feng Si looked at his body, speechless in a daze.Liang Ye saw what he was thinking, and walked to him: "Don't be surprised, your grandfather is a very mysterious existence. We have been looking for him, but we have never found him."

"What exactly does he and his family want to do, you should know better than the village chief?" Feng Si asked.

"It's up to you," Liang Ye hooked his fingers at Lu Hanyi, "I'm too lazy to talk."

"Forget about being lazy..." Lu Hanyi was not angry, "Let me start with your alarm clock to explain. Although demon servants always exist and monsters occasionally appear, the most recent demon king The all-out war with humans probably dates back 4600 years ago."

"4600 years? This number seems a bit familiar." Feng Si tried hard to recall, "China's recognized history is less than 3000 years old, and the Xia Dynasty before that only existed in legends. 4600 years... total war... Damn! You're not talking about the Zhuolu battle, are you?"

"It's the Battle of Zhuolu." Lu Hanyi nodded, "That war was not a battle between two human tribes for territory, but a decisive battle between demon servants and humans. According to legend, Chi You' Face like a cow's head, back with wings, copper head and iron forehead, eight arms and nine toes', although not necessarily precise, it also points out one point: Chi You is not a human being, but the incarnation of a demon servant. What it drives is the one you saw just now. Those monsters that passed by."

In other words, what I saw in the illusion on the train is most likely the Battle of Zhuolu?Feng Si suddenly felt cold sweat all over his forehead.

"We don't have detailed information about that war. In fact, judging from the few words in the legend, Chi You's power is far superior. But the strange thing is that it was human beings who won in the end. This is what people have always wanted. It is difficult to find an explanation, because that war may contain the key to restraining the Demon King.

"Since then, there has never been a large-scale war. The devil seems to have disappeared out of thin air, and the devil servants have also hidden themselves. Although there are occasional small-scale battles that broke out due to encounters with devil servants, they are absolutely impossible. Prevent the rapid reproduction and evolution of human beings. Human beings occupy the earth, from tribal civilization to industrial civilization, and the secrets about the devil are gradually being covered up. Except for these brain-based families scattered around the world, ordinary people Don’t know that at all.”

"Then, according to this, the Demon King has not reappeared since 4600 years ago. Where did the concept of the so-called Chosen One who can awaken the Demon King come from?" Feng Si was a little confused.

"This matter is too complicated to explain in detail, and I will explain it to you later. Simply put, someone accidentally obtained information from the brain of a captured demon servant by reading the traces of other people's thoughts. The thinking activities of the demon servant tell us that after the battle of Zhuolu, the demon king was severely injured and had to stop his activities, allowing himself to enter a state of protection that was similar to sleeping. "To wake up. And the later history also proved this point, that is, at intervals of varying lengths—hundreds of years or decades, the demon servants will have a collective restlessness, obviously feeling Some calling. That's the sign of the Chosen."

"Awakening the Demon King does not rely on demon servants, but human beings. Isn't that messed up?" Feng Si couldn't help asking.

"Who told you that the Chosen One is human?" Lu Hanyi looked at him meaningfully.

Feng Si was stunned, carefully thinking about Lu Hanyi's words, and suddenly his face turned pale: "You mean, I, the Chosen One, actually... actually..."

"Yes, the chosen one has the blood of the devil." Lu Hanyi said, "Only the blood of the devil can awaken the devil."

"But...how could there be the blood of the Demon King...and how to distinguish...isn't this too strange?" Feng Si was a little incoherent for a while.

"No one knows how the devil did it, just like no one knows where the devil is and what his image is." Lu Hanyi replied, "Anyway, in this world, such bloodlines do exist, and There is more than one. But not all people with the blood of the devil can become the chosen ones, so people can only take a stupid way, which is to keep a close eye on the family that may have the blood of the devil, and monitor every child born in this family. A baby. When the Chosen One is born, the demon servants will have abnormal movements, and even monsters will appear, and there are other strange omens that can help distinguish."

"In that case, wouldn't killing me be the end of it? For a long time, you don't have to worry about the Demon King being awakened." Feng Si said.

"But if you die, the next Chosen One will still appear. It's just an endless waiting road. We hope to find it through the special connection between the Chosen One and the Demon King without awakening the Demon King. It kills it in its sleep state. That's the real deal. But..."

"Fail every time?" Feng Si asked sharply.

Lu Hanyi sighed: "Yes, every time. The reason for every failure is exactly the same - at the moment when he was about to establish a spiritual connection with the devil, the brain of the chosen one went wrong, because he couldn't bear such a drastic mental change And suddenly turned into a lunatic - this was once called the "curse of fate". With only two exceptions, the two chosen ones successfully received the message from the demon king, but they themselves were completely controlled and became newborn demon servants , and we still couldn’t find the Demon King through them, and in the end we lost a lot in order to eliminate the newborn Demon Servants.”

"Why did this happen?" Feng Si frowned, recalling the strange hallucination before, that feeling, it was indeed like a foreign object was forcing its way into his brain.But in the end, he neither became a lunatic nor a controlled demon servant.As for the spiritual connection with the Demon King...it doesn't seem to exist either.

"No one knows. The sample space is too small to support serious conclusions. We can only try to guess first. For example, in recent years, my family has studied all the failure cases, and the only two establishments. After getting in touch, I found that the difference between the two chosen ones and everyone else is that they are not willing to fight against the devil." Lu Hanyi said, "Those two people are quite proud of having the blood of the devil in their bodies. The depths don't agree that they belong to humans, nor do they agree that they should fight against the Demon King."

"I understand!" Feng Si couldn't help shouting, "The girl I knew before named He Yifan said repeatedly that she shouldn't give me a preconceived impression, that's why! I can't resist the devil, but I can't get too close to it! In other words, it's best to happen when I don't know much about all the events, so that I can really act on instinct!"

Lu Hanyi nodded: "The reason why the demon servant abandoned his original form and turned into a human form to talk to you is actually to establish a spiritual connection with you and to give you hints. Any excessive thinking beforehand will make you unable to concentrate The real choice deep in the heart, which is very likely to lead to the failure of awakening - especially when this kind of thinking contains the instinctive resistance to the devil's servant. Once you fail, you will become a useless person, which is why we cannot tell you in advance you."

Speaking of this, Lu Hanyi looked puzzled: "But it's really strange. The final result became like this. You didn't wake up the demon king, and you weren't controlled. Instead, you killed the demon servant. And after killing the demon servant , you become an ordinary person again, unable to provoke any moth marks, and unable to resist Fan Liangyu's slight attack - this has never happened before."

Feng Si grinned: "The four of you came here together, in fact, you intend to kill me in case I am turned into a demon servant, right?"

"To be exact, it was just an observation at first," Lu Hanyi said, "We followed you here and didn't intend to enter the village. But after you entered the village and approached this tomb, we immediately caught the demon servant's mental disturbance , we are sure that you are a truly chosen one who can induce the devil servant, so we came in immediately. The four of us represent the four most powerful families in China. In fact, there are so many families outside the village Dozens or hundreds of people from other families are also paying attention to your movements. If you are unfortunately summoned to become a demon servant, we will kill you without hesitation."

"Then I'm lucky," Feng Si let out a sigh of relief, "But you still haven't told me what my grandfather's family wants to use me for?"

"That family has never communicated with us, and we don't even know their current situation and where they are hiding. The only thing that is certain is that they have more information about the Chosen One than others, and there are some things that cannot be known to outsiders. This purpose may be very dangerous, so we have been working hard to find them. It is a pity that no one knows the whereabouts of your grandfather until now."

"Then what are you going to do with me now?"

"Honestly, I don't know what to do with you now." The anguish on Lu Hanyi's face was very sincere, "There has never been any Chosen One who was as restless as you—I'm worried that sooner or later you will Make a big mistake. Brother Liang Ye, do you have any ideas?"

"Use the advice you gave me before and let nature take its course." Liang Ye said, "He is a chosen person that has never been seen in history. Instead of meddling indiscriminately with our eyes closed, it is better to let him close his eyes and break through by himself." .”

"What's more, if I'm not wrong, our big trouble has just begun." He looked exhausted, "If no miracle can happen to this little brother, maybe everyone will finish playing together."
