Inner Demons

He heard about this occasionally, but only as a rumor—because it felt too absurd.

But now Li Yunxin’s thoughts seem to him more absurd than that. Speaking seriously at this juncture is also a “fight poison with poison” strategy.

So he coughed and interrupted Li Yunxin’s meditation: “Speaking of the current situation, I have heard of another thing. Thinking that maybe it has something to do with what you think, but I thought it was nonsense…so I didn’t say it.”

At this moment, Li Yunxin is like a tensioned spring. Any word related to “strategy” must touch his sensitive nerves. So he immediately turned his eyes to look at him: “What’s the matter? I’ll listen.”

“It’s something related to the original owner here.” The old Tao said slowly—at the same time trying to talk nonsense. ——So that Li Yunxin slowly calmed down while listening to him, “Master Dongting here, didn’t you go to True Dragon because of the restrictions a few days ago? The news is related to him.” /p>

“Taoist Shu Ke came back a few days ago, and he also mentioned it in passing-they learned from a few little monsters. At that time, I thought about this news, those little monsters How did you know? So it was only those little monsters who were also talking nonsense, and I didn’t mention it just now…”

Then he started talking about it. For example, how did the mouse spirit Shuke come back that day, what the weather was like, and what was his clothes. What was my mood at the time, what I was thinking about, and what I was doing—all these things are in no small detail, with some verbose and repeatedly emphasized nonsense.

Li Yunxin at first is still anxious to listen, frowns. But after a while… it doesn’t seem to be anxious anymore.

The fire in this room is pulsating, and the chill is fading. Lao Dao insisted on talking about these nonsense for two quarters of an hour, and then slowly turned to the topic——

“…Just say that Lord Dongting was beheaded by True Dragon. It is said that he was beheaded. At that time, the real body appeared, which was bigger than a mountain. It was also said that True Dragon lived on an island in the weak sea-that Dongting-jun’s body was actually equivalent to that of the island. These things are so vividly said by the little monsters. , As if I saw it with my own eyes. I just thought about it carefully… I suddenly felt that this matter was unusual.”

“I have never seen the real body of Lord Dongting. But heart Brother, you told me-it’s really huge, like an island. Those little monsters have never seen it, where would you know such details? So I asked those little monsters how they knew it. But those cultivation bases were low-minded Many of the Demons just had their human form just now, and they couldn’t even speak clearly. They just said they heard from others. So I asked a few more-asking questions like this, the result was even more surprising… …”

“It seems that the nearby Demon all know about this, but we don’t. This shows how widespread the news is? If Lord Dongting is really beheaded in the Weak Sea, Where is the weak sea? It is said that in the extreme east, no one has ever been to it! How far is the vast distance from the weak sea here? Doesn’t the Demon in the world all know about this!”

He said while watching Li Yunxin’s expression.

At this moment, Li Yunxin is sitting in front of the copper stove, with one arm resting on the table and one arm resting on his leg. Slightly narrowed his eyes and listened to him in a daze.

Fire light cast a profile on his face, making his eyes especially black—the pupils were big, like two small black holes.

When the old Tao said this, Li Yunxin blinked and asked calmly: “Ahhh…what’s going on?”

The old Tao stood up, He walked to Li Yunxin and was silent for a while.

Then slowly said in a very soft voice: “You think. This kind of major event, but even a little Demon knows it, is it reasonable?”

Li Yunxin thought for a while, and whispered: “It’s not reasonable.”

The old way said: “Then think about it again. When something is too weird, it means that Is it really weird, or is it…we might have taken a fork and thought the wrong direction when we were considering this matter?”

Li Yunxin was silent for a while, blinking unclearly, like Is thinking about a difficult problem.

The old way doesn’t urge him, just standing in front of him quietly watching him think. After a few breaths of effort, Li Yunxin said: “Yes… I took a fork in the road and thought in the wrong direction.”

Listening to his words, the expression on Old Road Liu’s face suddenly relaxed. Coming down-as if the tight breath from before came out at this moment, even sweat oozes from his forehead. I don’t know if it is because of extreme tension or exhaustion.

It has been three quarters of an hour since he told Li Yunxin about Lord Dongting. However, these three quarters of an hour were a rare long in life for him. He struck up his last spirits, took a deep breath, and finally said: “Yes. So now, you have to rest alive — you go and take a rest, take a look out the window——”

“You look at the moonlight outside the window like water, and the night is clear. Listen to the sound of the waves again-you will slowly feel that such a night is quiet and warm. You already want to open up at this moment. If there is nothing to worry about, it’s better to take a good rest and sleep.”

The old man leaned down and looked into Li Yunxin’s eyes. One hand slowly reached over to support his back, and one hand gently placed his forehead: “Sleep for a while. Sleep until dawn.”

His hand is down, Closed Li Yunxin’s eyes.

Li Yunxin was like a puppet with a string drawn. Suddenly, his body was limp and fell into his arms.

……

……

So he began to dream.

The dream is clear and lifelike—it’s just that the light in the dream is a bit cold and dark, as if it were early morning when the sky was not full.

He stood in front of a door and in the corridor.

The corridor floor is covered with scarlet carpet. The carpet was so heavy that no sound could be heard with a light stomping. There are cameras on the walls-two small probes are aimed at the door within ten steps, and no one can escape the eyes of the monitor.

This door is an original wooden door wrapped in leather. It is not stronger than those cheap, rough-welded iron bars, it seems to be a prop used by the owner of this door to show off his financial resources and taste.

Li Yunxin opened the door.

Inside the door is a study room. From the decoration to the layout, it shows that the owner of the study has amazing wealth, but is not at all completely used to these wealth. And the owner sits behind a large table, frowns playing with something in his hand.

That thing is dark and slightly shiny. Li Yunxin stared at it for a while, and it took some thought before he realized that the thing was called a “gun”.

His mind is still dull and his perception is numb. He saw the man behind the table turned his head and said something to him. However, the voice sounded as if in the sky, ethereally. He heard every word the man said, but he didn’t know what it was.

Suddenly… his consciousness suddenly became sharp again-as if the soul returned to the body in an instant.

So instantly remembered what I should do.

He is a doctor.

The man is his patient.

However, he is here today, not to listen to him, nor to comfort his “desperate and violent heart” like the previous two years.

——Kill him. After making him suffer for half a year.

This is his purpose.

Li Yunxin froze for a second. Then he strode up to the man when he raised his voice impatiently.

He raised a hand, snapped his fingers, and uttered only three words: “Follow me.”

So it turned out that he was waving a gun at Li Yunxin. The man yelling impatiently fell silent for a moment. Then he nodded and put down the gun. Walked to Li Yunxin’s side like a friendly ordinary person, smiled and showed six teeth: “Doctor Li. Let’s go.”

Then…the scene jumped.

Jump into a room. The room has no windows, it is dark and cold, and it is only illuminated by an incandescent lamp on the ceiling.

The man was chained to the wall-like a dog in chains. He has only one foot left. The other foot is gone, and half of the calf is gone. The broken part was wrapped with a bandage, and the bandage was very careful, without any blood stains.

This seems to mean that the fracture has healed.

Then the man heard the door opening. He immediately rounded his eyes and creaked his teeth. He seemed so terrified that he couldn’t even retreat. Or he knew it would be useless to avoid crying and scolding—he couldn’t escape at all.

Li Yunxin opened the door and walked in.

He held a yellow medicine kit in his left hand. And the right hand raised an axe. The sharp edge of the axe shone coldly.

“It’s finished.” He stared at the man for a while, then said with a smile.

……

……

When the first rays of sunlight entered the room, Li Yunxin suddenly sat up from the bed.

He was stunned for a while, and then he saw outside the window-it was not dark, but a blue sky.

Now he is sitting on the bed in this big room with a thin quilt on his body. The sun was a little dazzling, and his back was slightly damp, as if he was sweating from sleep.

I heard the faint cicadas.

I heard the calls of waterbirds.

He widened his eyes and turned to look at the man sitting by the bed–

Lao Dao Liu was also looking at him. The eyes are bloodshot, and the lips are dry. The mouth quivered slightly for a while before he said as if he had made some determination: “I hypnotized you. I hypnotized you last night. I told you to sleep well. Use the way you taught me.”

Li Yunxin still stared at him, as if he didn’t know what to say or what to do.

The old way took a deep breath again: “In order to calm you down. You…was hypnotized by me. You realize…how, how…you lost control last night? ?”

It was a while after he had said this before Li Yunxin slowly turned around, stepped on the ground, and sat facing the old way.

Then he looked at Liu Lao Dao for a full quarter of an hour before sighed then said suddenly, lowered his head and looked at his feet.

“You are right. I messed up Fangcun.” He whispered, “I messed up Fangcun.”

“…So I should start doing things.”
