Dressed as the last nine-tailed fox

"Absorb the energy of the people to cultivate?" Yi Changle raised his eyebrows and said, "Kaitian, with Uncle Chi Yi's character, I believe he would never do anything to harm ordinary people to improve his mana, but you It's not easy to gossip, if the couple you're talking about isn't Uncle Chi Yi and Aunt Ziyan, you don't have to waste so much time talking with me."

Kaitian smiled when he heard the words, picked up the teapot at hand, filled the teacup in front of Yi Changle, and said unhurriedly: "Yi Changle, the tea in this teahouse is good, have a drink."

Yi Changle glanced at Kai Tian suspiciously, then under Kai Tian's gaze, he slowly picked up the teacup in front of him, and after taking a sip, Yi Changle's face showed a trace of doubt, "This tea doesn't seem to be much special."

Seeing that Kaitian just laughed, Yi Changle said again: "Could it be that this tea has something to do with Uncle Chi Yi?"

"No." Kai Tian replied firmly.

"No, no?" Yi Changle was a little surprised, after Kai Tian's action just now, Yi Changle had already linked this tea with Chi Yi in his heart.

Seeing Yi Changle's unexpected appearance, Kai Tian changed his normal routine and said seriously: "Yi Changle, this is just a cup of ordinary tea."

"It's common, so why did you let me drink it?" Yi Changle asked suspiciously.

"Yi Changle, have you noticed that you are always like this, even if it is an ordinary thing, you still want to see the purpose behind the person doing it through this thing, but often not everyone who does it There are ulterior motives in everything you do." Kai Tian paused, and continued: "Just like just now, if you wanted to ask if the couple I was talking about were Chi Yi and Zi Yan, you could just ask. , There is no need to analyze so much at all, I am your friend and your ally, you don't have to always suspect what I mean, no matter what you want to ask, I will tell you directly."

After listening to Kai Tian's earnest words, Yi Changle was stunned for a moment, and then said apologetically, explaining anxiously: "I'm sorry, Kai Tian, ​​I didn't mean to suspect you, I just..."

Yi Changle's words were interrupted by Kai Tian, ​​who waved his hand and said: "Yi Changle, don't be sorry, you were betrayed by someone you trusted, and experienced the destruction of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, it's really normal for you to be a little wary." Kai Tian paused After a pause, he continued: "I don't mean to blame you when I tell you this, but I just want you to let go of your subtle guard against me."

"I see." Yi Changle promised Kai Tian: "I will pay attention to it in the future."

With Yi Changle's promise, Kai Tian got up from the chair, said with a smile on his face, "Let's go."

Yi Changle asked doubtfully, "Where are you going?"

"Go to the bottom of the mountain to find the small courtyard where Chi Yi and Ziyan used to live." Kai Tian glanced at the tea left on the table with some distaste, and said to Yi Changle: "Is it possible that we still have to drink tea here to waste time?"

"Don't drink, don't drink." Yi Changle also got up and walked out the door.

On the way to the foot of the mountain, Kai Tian went on to talk about what he had heard from the second child, "Chi Yi and Zi Yan have already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the past few years in the water town, and the people in the water town will not rush to gossip because of some gossip. They thought that the 'living Bodhisattva' they always had in mind would turn into a monstrosity until someone came up with evidence."

"In these years, people with serious illnesses often go to Chi Yi and Ziyan for help. Every time they leave, these seriously ill people will live alive, but they will still pass away soon after." Kai Tian said and sighed "Even God, because of the cause and effect in the world, can't change the lifespan of mortals at will, so I guess Chi Yi probably doesn't want to see the suffering of the world, so he wants to let them take less sin in their last time, but I don't want to, but this action has become evidence that I am accused of being a monster who absorbs essence."

"After those people who were seriously ill were rescued by Chi Yi, they passed away according to their original life expectancy. The shortest was no more than two or three days, and the longest was no more than a month. Relatives couldn't accept their appearance, and it seemed even more strange to outsiders, and because of this, Chi Yi and Zi Yan were suspected, and under the rumors, they were given the hat of absorbing energy."

"Then what happened later, what happened later?" Yi Changle asked.

"Chi Yi and Ziyan have changed from 'living gods' that everyone worships to 'monsters' that everyone shouts and beats. The yard where they live was smeared with cinnabar and sprinkled with dog blood. I've seen them again." Kai Tian sneered, "The Xiao Er also told me that there was a scholar at that time, and he wrote these things in a book, which is a story of a successful exorcism."

"Exorcism?" Yi Changle frowned, "So these people think that Uncle Chi Yi has never appeared again, and they used some cinnabar and dog blood to successfully get rid of Uncle Chi Yi?"

"En." Kai Tian said with a half-smile.

"It's really ignorant!" Yi Changle was quite angry, "Uncle Chi Yi made those who are seriously ill feel no pain and become alive and well. He wants them to spend their last days well, but he doesn't want to be among these people. What a hateful evildoer who sucked the essence!"

Kai Tian agreed, "Indeed, it's extremely ignorant." Kai Tian paused, and then said: "But there is one thing, according to what the Xiao Er said, this happened more than 500 years ago, and it is very important for the people of the water town today. , more like a fairy tale in the legend, there is no authenticity at all, so I don’t know if the specific situation at that time was true.”

"More than 500 years?" Yi Changle carefully calculated, and said puzzledly: "Uncle Chi Yi returned to Qingqiu only a month ago, and it took us three days to get from Qingqiu to Shuixiang, one day in the heavenly world, and ten years in the human world. More than 300 years, and there are still more than 200 years in between, where did it go?"

Kai Tian pointed to the house not far away, which was almost covered by weeds, and said: "Perhaps, the answer lies in it."

On the walls of the house, mottled bloodstains and dilapidated yellow prayer flags can still be seen faintly, matching the story in Kaitian's mouth bit by bit.

Looking at the cinnabar remaining on the prayer flags, Yi Changle sighed: "I thought that Uncle Chi Yi and Aunt Ziyan had gone through hardships and could finally live the life they wanted, but I didn't expect that they lived happily in the world. Such a day."

Seeing this, Kai Tian wanted to comfort him, but Yi Changle quickly calmed down his emotions, walked towards the house and said, "Kai Tian, ​​let's go in and have a look."

"it is good."

Kaitian and Yi Changle searched the house, but found nothing. Seeing that Kaitian was a little frustrated, Yi Changle said: "Kaitian, my father has already sent someone to this water town, much earlier than us, he I didn't find anything, so this trip, I have already prepared for nothing."

"However, we didn't get nothing." Yi Changle comforted Kaitian: "We at least know what happened in this water village 500 years ago."

"But the 200 years in the middle are the key. There is no clue in this house. How can we find traces of those 200 years? How can we find traces of Ziyan?" Kai Tian was still frustrated.

Yi Changle said in a deep voice: "If Hongmeng Ziqi really cares about Ziyan as she said, maybe we can ask her for help."
