Soul knot

Chapter 17

Many times, genuine trust is the worst thing that can happen.

Manzhu believed in Mu Shenshan too much. After all, in this strange human city outside the mountain, Mu Shenshan really helped her a lot.If it wasn't for Mu Shenshan, she wouldn't know how she, who had been derailed from human civilization for thousands of years, would survive in the human world.

In the past six months since leaving the mountain, Mu Shenshan has arranged almost everything for her.

He gave her a place to live, gave her a job, and helped Lu Yudong find a good school.

All of the above gave her the illusion that "Although Mu Shenshan is long-winded and stingy, he is really reliable".

It is precisely because of this illusion that from the moment Mu Shenshan set the seal for Lu Yudong on New Year's Eve, the big stone in her heart fell safely.

In fact, it's not that she hasn't thought about checking whether the seal is stable.

But Mu Shenshan said to her: "Honghong, brother, you can just rest assured when you do things, OK? We have different demonic powers, so stop messing around. If the mutual exclusion is broken, you have to make it up. I'm the one who is tired... Let me tell you first, this is free for the first time, and you will need to pay for maintenance.”

Mu Shenshan talked all about this, and Manzhu naturally no longer had any doubts about his ability. After all, when asking for help, face is always given.

In the half month since the seal was set, Lu Yudong's spiritual aura was indeed no different from that of ordinary people, and the big stone in Manzhu's heart fell steadily.

But tonight, Manzhu suddenly felt heart palpitations for no reason, which made her feel very anxious, and she asked for leave early before twelve o'clock and rushed back.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered the corridor, she felt a burst of spiritual power, and the moment she rushed into the house, she saw a nightmare ghost attached to Lu Yudong's body.

She killed the nightmare ghost, but because of it, Lu Yudong fainted.

It stands to reason that Lu Yudong's physical and mental conditions are very healthy, and the demon power in his body has been sealed, so he shouldn't be entangled by such things.

Manzhu hesitated again and again, her brows became tighter and tighter, and finally decided to check the seal in Lu Yudong's body.

After seeing it, she realized that there was a big problem with that seal.

It's not that the method of sealing is wrong, but that Mu Shenshan's monster power is too sinister, and the seal doesn't hurt people, but the evil power stays in Lu Yudong's body for a long time, and it actually caused a lot of damage to Lu Yudong's body.

This kind of injury is like a disease but not a disease. There are no obvious symptoms, but it can make people mentally weak. That little guy with a low cultivation level took advantage of it.

Manzhu couldn't help closing her eyes and taking a deep breath, tightened the curtains, and made seals with both hands, completely breaking the seal that Mu Shenshan had set in Lu Yudong's body.

The moment the seal shattered, Lu Yudong frowned, his small body trembled, and curled up unconsciously.

Manzhu covered her tightly with the quilt in distress, and sat by the bed, upset and sleepless all night.

Although the nightmare ghost didn't hurt anyone, it brought back the nightmare that Lu Yudong hadn't had for a long time.

In her dream, she fell off a cliff, lost her parents, and was entangled by a red python...

And there was such a short moment of clear consciousness telling her that the red python was not a dream, but Manzhu who had been taking care of her for the past six months.

She slept for a long, long time, as if she didn't want to wake up and face all this.

Manzhu also turned off the chimes on the two mobile phones with similar times early, thinking that the child could sleep more, so she slept more, and if she really wanted to wake up, she didn't know how to explain what happened last night.

No, not just last night.

Manzhu knew that she and this child had too many things to explain.

When Lu Yudong opened his eyes, it was already bright outside the house, but the curtains were tightly closed.

In the gloomy little rented house, there is the milky smell of steamed buns.

This long-lost experience is like the first morning when she first arrived here, and like every Sunday morning when she sleeps in bed, as soon as she wakes up, she can eat the breakfast prepared by Manzhu.

She was ill, as she had been in the hospital bed, and she should have been cared for by someone who cared for her.

But at this moment, she didn't know how to face this seemingly unusual day.

Her mind was so chaotic, so confused that the doubts and confusion that could not be figured out even almost overwhelmed the fear deep in her heart.

When Manzhu walked out of the kitchen, Lu Yudong had already put on his upper body cotton pajamas, and was sitting quietly by the bed, staring blankly at the window through the curtain that was parted.

"get up."

Lu Yudong's ten fingers subconsciously clenched the blanket covering his legs. After a few seconds of silence, his voice trembled: "Last night, it wasn't a dream, right?"

It was not a dream, the snake was real, it existed on the day of the car accident, and it also existed last night.

She's not smart, but she's never stupid either.

Falling off a cliff from a high place, the car is completely destroyed, how can a person survive?

Just in the arms of a mother?

The doctor marveled at how quickly and well she recovered. He said that most of the patients he had seen were injured like her, and they would end up with disabilities. What was there to lament...Children have good physiques.

Thinking about it now, it's all related to this Manzhu who suddenly came to his own world, right?

"Are you afraid of me?" Manzhu asked softly, "Does my appearance scare you?"

Lu Yudong thought for a long time, lowered his head, and asked softly, "Will you eat me?"

"What do you think?"

"I don't know." Lu Yudong shook his head with red eyes, but he didn't dare to look at Manzhu, "I don't know...why you appeared, I never knew..."

She never knew why Manzhu appeared in her world, but she never thought about the reason.

People don't have to live too clearly, it's good to be a little confused.

Just like all the unhappiness in the past can also be selectively forgotten by a person who does not want to face it after a car accident or a serious injury...

She is such a cowardly person.

Therefore, she also wanted to selectively ignore the reasons for many things.

After all, no matter how everything starts and how tortuous the process is, the result is always good.

As long as you don't know anything, you can act as if nothing happened, and An An can accept the comfortable status quo, isn't it?

Yes, at least that's how it was then...

But now it was different, she was suddenly terrified.

Too many terrible thoughts flooded into her heart, making her brain a mess.

After a long silence, she finally woke up from the chaotic thoughts and asked the question she cared about the most.

"I want to know... Does the death of my parents have anything to do with you?"

On that rainy night, by such a coincidence, she fell off the cliff and met her Manzhu.

If this is an inevitable encounter, then she will have no idea how to face Manzhu from now on.

Fortunately, there was no hesitation in Manzhu's tone: "No."

This made Lu Yudong heave a sigh of relief, tears bursting out of his eyes.

Enough is enough, as long as this is confirmed, everything else is no longer so important.

Even...even if Manzhu finds her and raises her, just to eat her in the end...then she just gave back the life she should have lost to the snake demon who saved her.

The little girl's reaction was not as intense as imagined.

Manzhu breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the sofa, and said softly: "I won't eat you, you are small and fleshless, I have nothing to cherish."

Lu Yudong raised his eyes and looked at Manzhu cautiously, his eyes were timid, but there was a bit of hope.

"That day was the day I crossed the catastrophe. Your human monster hunters suddenly broke into my territory. They tried to get rid of me indiscriminately to defend the way, causing me to fail the catastrophe and suffer serious injuries." Man Zhu said, shaking his head. After sneering twice, he continued, "I escaped from the deep mountains, but Heavenly Tribulation didn't let me go. After being seriously injured, I still lost my soul in the end."

She said that all living beings in the world have three souls and seven souls. The light of the fetus is the soul of life.

In order to survive, she fled for a long time with her remnant soul. When she was almost desperate, she met the human girl at the bottom of the cliff who was so angry.

At that moment, with a thought in her mind, she used a demon clan's forbidden technique called "soul-bonding" on that girl.

People who are soul-bound, life and soul are connected, life and death are connected, and they should not be too far apart from each other.

In other words, for the rest of my life, no one can do without anyone.

"In that case, it is the best choice for both you and me. I survived by your soul, and you survived by my demon power." Manzhu said, "So... you are afraid It's useless, from that moment on, we are doomed to be together in life and death."

Manzhu's tone was so light that people couldn't tell whether she was happy or sad.

Lu Yudong finally knew why Manzhu came to her world, but found that this was not the answer she wanted.

Lu Yudong bit his lower lip, struggling with his heart for a long time, before asking again: "So... to you, I'm just... just a..."

Just a what?

For a moment, Lu Yudong didn't even know what he was to Manzhu.

Is it a blind medicine to continue life?Or is it a container for storing souls?

It turned out that the so-called always being together was just because they couldn't be separated, and it wasn't her wishful thinking that they cared about each other.

Thinking of this, the sensitive child couldn't help curling up his knees and buried his head deeply in it.

She tried her best not to cry, but still let out a low sob.

It was as uncomfortable as if I had returned to the day when I just woke up from the ward half a year ago. When the pain was not healed, I learned that I had lost the most important relative in my life... It was that day that she was surrounded by the whole world she knew. abandoned.

In desperation, Manzhu put his hand on her thin shoulder lightly, and said distressedly: "Why are you crying?"

"I can take you back to the mountains, imprison you, and support you. I have a thousand ways to keep you alive, and you have to live well if you don't want to... As long as you live, I won't die. You suffer Or not, what does it have to do with me?" Manzhu said, slightly moved the back of Lu Yudong's head, and smiled softly, "But I am full, and I just want you to be like other human children. , grow up healthy and healthy, don't blame me and hate me..."

"In fact, some people have asked me, saying that to me, you are just a container for the soul of life. It is good to keep it by my side and not die. Why bother?"

"He made a lot of sense. I'm a demon. I'm definitely not a kind person. I have reason to coax a human child... But accompanying you to a human city was just an impulse of mine. I can't explain anything. reason."

"Although... I don't seem to be suitable here. I don't have any human friends so far, and I can't integrate well into this world, but I really don't think about leaving."

"Because you're here, because...you belong here."

Manzhu said softly, her tone was so gentle and firm.

At the end, she tugged at Lu Yudong's little ears and asked, "Now, are you still mad at me?"
