Shanhai Inn

Lu Zhuo actually felt the same way.

He looked at Zhou Yanxiu: "Hello, have we... met somewhere?"

A few people next to him immediately cast alert gazes.

Zhou Yanxiu is a very rambunctious person, and his "confidants" are all over the monster circle. The cub will not be teased by him when he was young, right?

Zhou Yanxiu is a very transparent person, he can tell what these people are thinking just by looking at his eyes, and he wants to laugh.

Even if he has no bottom line, he won't be able to attack an underage cub, right?

The scapegoat cannot be returned in vain.

So Zhou Yanxiu decided to make it a reality.

He looked at Lu Zhuo, his eyes were full of affection, and his voice also carried some provocative meaning: "Maybe he saw it in a dream?"

Lu Fengshi frowned: "Zhou Yanxiu."

Yo.

Seeing the person who made the sound, Zhou Yanxiu raised his eyebrows slightly.

It turns out that there are people who care about such an emotionless monster like Zhulong.

It was well guarded.

It seems that the relationship between the two is unusual.

Zhou Yanxiu felt that this was very strange, and continued to explore frantically on the edge of danger. Not only did he not take back his gaze on Lu Zhuo, but he became more focused.

It's a pity that within a few seconds of concentrating, the person whose line of sight fell disappeared.

Lu Fengshi blocked Lu Zhuo behind him, looked at Zhou Yanxiu with cold eyes, and concealed a warning.

It seems that there can be no more trouble.

Zhou Yanxiu didn't want to experience the consequences of angering Zhulong.

"All right, all right, I was the one to be rude."

Zhou Yanxiu changed his style of painting to a serious one, and smiled at Lu Zhuo: "Xiao Zai Zai, which family are you from?"

In the world of monsters, what this means is actually asking what your species is.

"I do not know."

The cub leaned out from behind Lu Fengshi, and answered in a low voice against the duck.

This is actually a strange answer, but Zhou Yanxiu didn't seem surprised at all, as if he had expected it.

He looked at Lu Zhuo with deep eyes, with a vague inquiry.

Lu Fengshi noticed his abnormality: "Do you know something?"

"I just... think this little cub is very familiar." Zhou Yanxiu said softly, and looked at the eyes of the people in front of him, "I know your scumbag's nature will not change", and explained dumbfoundingly, "Don't use such eyes Look at me, my words don't have those ambiguous meanings, just stating the facts."

"When I saw him, I felt a sense of familiarity, that feeling... as if souls are connected, you don't understand, only I understand, only Pixiu can understand."

Although Zhou Yanxiu's words were a little frivolous, he was actually quite serious, and he wouldn't deliberately joke when everyone was serious like this.

A few people knew this, so they became serious, and lowered their heads to think about Zhou Yanxiu's words.

Zhou Yanxiu is a Pixiu, the monster that can make him feel connected with his soul, could it be...

A name that had been buried for many years emerged in their hearts. Several people raised their heads in disbelief, and at almost the same time, they heard Zhou Yanxiu's voice.

"Have you ever heard of evil spirits?"

To ward off evil spirits.

It was exactly the same as the answer in their hearts.

The only person in this world who can have a soul connection with Pixiu is to ward off evil spirits.

Many years ago, when the world was first born, few people would directly call Pixiu as Pixiu, because there are actually two species under the title of Pixiu - Tianlu and Hexie.

The two come from the same lineage, the one with one horn is Tianlu, and the one with two horns is to ward off evil spirits. The former absorbs blessings from all directions, and the latter suppresses evil disasters from all directions. Dian, even the inheritance is broken.

There is only one that wards off evil spirits in this world.

Afterwards, thousands of years of time have passed, and that generation of monsters has almost disappeared. The newborn little monsters can't see evil spirits and only see Tianlu. When it comes to Pixiu, naturally they can only Think of Tianlu.

In the long river of time, evil spirits have been forgotten bit by bit.

Up to now, no one of the new generation of monsters knows that there was such a species as evil spirits before.

Several people pieced together the fragments of evil information they knew, and compared it with Lu Zhuo.

Exorcising evil spirits is an auspicious beast, and so is the aura on Lu Zhuo's body.

Pixiu has two horns to ward off evil spirits, and Lu Zhuo's small horns happen to be two.

To ward off evil spirits, suppress evil spirits and eliminate disasters, Lu Zhuo's ability to suppress evil spirits is very good, and can even suppress the evil intentions of Zhulong.

Pixiu's body is like a tiger and leopard. This kind of monster looks like a kitten when he was young. From the ears and tail, Lu Zhuo should look similar.

And if Lu Zhuo is to ward off evil spirits, it can also explain why Lin Xin and Lu Fengshi couldn't find his information in the Monster Bureau——

The evil spirits disappeared more than 8000 years ago, and the monster bureau was established more than 500 years ago. At that time, the monsters had forgotten to ward off evil spirits. They defaulted to Tianlu as Pixiu. As long as Tianlu is there, the position of Pixiu will not be vacant. They will naturally check Nothing came of it.

The mystery has an answer, plus the feeling of soul connection that Zhou Yanxiu said.

Steady steady.

It's all right!

This is surprising news, as if the suspense film that has suspended updates suddenly released the finale without notice.

I didn't expect to have such a reward when I went out to soak in a hot spring.

They couldn't wait to know more information related to evil spirits, but evil spirits dissipated as early as 8000 years ago. Except for Lu Fengshi, the oldest among them was less than five thousand, and they had very little information .

And Lu Fengshi was an autistic candle dragon before he joined the WTO, so he probably didn't know as much information as the few of them.

Candle Dragon can't.

Several people didn't even ask him, Qi Qi looked at Zhou Yanxiu: "Can you tell us about evil spirits?"

As Tianlu who came from the same line with evil spirits, no one knows evil spirits better than Zhou Yanxiu.

The latter was still looking at Lu Zhuo, with both joy and nostalgia in his eyes, he did not refuse when he heard the words, and nodded slightly: "This is not a place to talk, you might as well go upstairs and talk about it."

The sound insulation in the hot spring room is average, and several people are not wearing shirts. It is indeed... weird to talk like this.

"it is good."

The one who responded was Lin Xin, but the one who got up first was Lu Fengshi, with the sound of water.

Hearing the sound, Lu Zhuo looked over there subconsciously. He was sitting and standing with Lu Fengshi. Because of the angle, his eyes directly hit Mr. Lu's abdominal muscles and that...a place that was not very easy to describe.

Lu Zhuo's face turned red instantly, but Lu Fengshi didn't pay attention to this, he walked out of the bath and stretched out his hand to Xiao Zai Zai: "Come."

Lu Zhuo turned away his eyes, put his hand over, and left the hot spring pool at about the same time as Lin Xin and the others.

Zhou Yanxiu smiled, made a gesture of invitation, and led them forward, all the way up to the top floor of the villa.

This entire floor is Zhou Yanxiu's private area.

A few people walked into the study room, and the door closed. Zhou Yanxiu was not the kind of grumpy person. He lowered his hand a little, and a wooden box appeared in front of them.

He put the box on the desk and opened it. Inside were some calligraphy and paintings, old and new.

Zhou Yanxiu lowered his hands and stroked those calligraphy and paintings: "These are the records left by me and the few brave ones in front of me inheriting Zhou Yuan's last wish."

Zhou Yuan is the name of the first generation of Tianlu.

He came from the same line as the evil spirit, and had been with him for thousands of years on Mount Wugo. Needless to say, he had a deep relationship. He was the one who suffered the most when the evil spirit died.

It hurts to ward off evil spirits and leave, and it hurts him even to break the inheritance.

The years are too long, and only the living can be remembered. Zhou Yuan knows this truth well, but he is reluctant to ward off evil spirits and be forgotten.

So Zhou Yuan engraved the appearance of warding off evil spirits and all the things he had experienced on the oracle bones, and left a last wish in the inheritance, asking Tianlu later to pass these on until the day the inheritance ceased.

——Everyone can forget to ward off evil spirits, but Tianlu can't.

——Everyone may forget to ward off evil spirits, only Tianlu will not.

This is Tianlu's long-cherished wish to be integrated into the soul, and Tianlu later will naturally not violate it. They followed Zhou Yuan and wrote down the calligraphy and paintings used to ward off evil that they saw in the inheritance, from the oracle bones in Zhou Yuan's period to The bamboo rolls of rice paper in the back, and now the finer white paper.

The paper is getting better and better, the painting skills are getting better and better, and the appearance of evil spirits on it is getting clearer and clearer. From the abstract painting that can only be vaguely seen with simple strokes at the beginning, it is gradually deepened and aggravated until it can depict his Appearance and charm.

By Zhou Yanxiu's generation, the painting skills have long been proficient, and what he painted was an oil painting.

Warm colors are used as the base of the painting to outline a sunny spring, and evil spirits stand by Lake Wugo, looking at the people outside the painting in the lake's light and water.

He has a pair of amber eyes, transparent and clear, much clearer than the lake beside him. The two horns on his head are shorter than ordinary deer antlers, and the color is warm and moist like jade. Two soft clouds, the small flowers by the lake fell on his wings along the wind, adding a bit of soft color to them.

It's too warm.

That kind of warmth is so full that it almost overflows from the painting.

The feeling he gave Lin Xin and the others was very similar to that Lu Zhuo gave them.

The appearance is also similar, especially the ears and tail, which are basically the enlarged version of Lu Zhuo's ears and tail.

But... there is a little difference.

Lin Xin and the others made a careful comparison and found a little difference in details.

On the painting, the color of fur to ward off evil spirits is gray and white, and Lu Zhuo's fluff is like snow.

The horns of evil spirits are white with a little powder, and Lu Zhuo's horns are pure white, the same as the fluffy body.

Xie Xie has wings on his back, and Lu Zhuo is about to become an adult, but there is no trace on his back.

Tianlu's painting skills have been passed down for tens of thousands of years. There is no possibility of color difference, and it can only be caused by evil spirits themselves.

After thinking about it, Lin Xin asked Zhou Yanxiu: "Will the color of the fur and horns change from childhood to adulthood? Also, do wings appear only after adults?"

He hoped that Zhou Yanxiu would nod, but it was counterproductive.

"No." Zhou Yanxiu shook his head, "The color of his fur and horns was the same when he was born, and his wings were also there at that time."

That doesn't seem to be quite right.

For an ancient monster like Pixiu, no matter how many times it is passed on, the characteristics of the original body will not change.

Is it rare that Ah Zai is not warding off evil spirits?Wrong direction again?

Lin Xin rubbed the space between his eyebrows, looked at Zhou Yanxiu, "Do you think Xiaolu is warding off evil spirits?"

Tianlu and evil spirits come in the same line, and he has actually seen evil spirits in the inheritance. The Taoist priest feels that his judgment should be more accurate.

The person being asked did not speak.

Zhou Yanxiu stood there frowning, his heart was confused and he couldn't figure out many things.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent.

After an unknown amount of time, someone finally made a sound.

"I think...he is to ward off evil spirits."

"He won't be exorcising evil spirits."

Two contradictory words sounded at the same time, the first sentence was from Zhou Yanxiu's voice, and the second sentence...

It was Lu Fengshi who said it.

He looked at the evil spirit on the painting, and his voice was very soft, because the words he wanted to say gained weight out of thin air, and hit everyone's hearts heavily.

"When the evil spirit sacrificed itself, the body was reduced and the soul was scattered, leaving no spirit left."

"The soul is scattered like a lamp, there is no way for him to have an inheritance."

"And after more than 8000 years."
