Chapter 372
Speaking of the four words of the Murong Royal Family, the corpse demon frowned, and her eyes became a little complicated. She sat down at the mouth of the cold well again, sighed and said to me: "Yes, 'I' was indeed a member of the Murong Royal Family when I was alive. One member, but unlike Bingshi, 'I' is not Murong Chui's imperial concubine, but his daughter."

"Daughter, then...then aren't you the princess of the Houyan Dynasty?" I asked in surprise, but the corpse demon shook his head, "I'm not the princess of the Houyan Dynasty, I'm just a soulless, one and a half The existence of corpses and half demons."

"Why do you say that?" I asked puzzled.

"The 'I' who was alive has already returned to the underworld, reincarnated and reincarnated, and there is only a corpse left, so I am still 'I'?" The corpse demon said meaningfully, although the words were a bit convoluted , but I probably understood what she meant.

Seeing me meditating there, the corpse demon continued, "Princess Murong, who was alive, unfortunately fell off a cliff due to the war, and her body was not discovered until three years later when she became a pile of bones, and was buried in the imperial mausoleum..."

"Wait, you're already dead, how did you know that you were only discovered three years after your death?" I asked suspiciously.

"That's what I learned after I was reborn, that is, after I became a corpse demon." The corpse demon said lightly.

And when she talked about it, I suddenly remembered the origin of the blood corpse, that is, Murong Chui's younger brother Murong Lie was dug up from the imperial tomb and turned into a blood corpse.

Thinking of this, I quickly asked again: "By the way, how did you become a corpse demon afterwards? Is it related to a Taoist priest?"

The Corpse Demon nodded and said: "Yes, my bones were dug out from the imperial tomb by a Taoist priest. The reason why I became a Corpse Demon is thanks to him! I vaguely remember that I was once sealed in the wilderness. In the middle of the mountain, I was in a huge magic circle. After that, I don’t know how many chaotic years I have passed through. It was not until 100 years ago that I had a body of flesh and blood, and possessed the same intelligence and freedom as humans..."

When she talked to this point, I finally understood why the corpse demon thought that she was not the princess of the Murong royal family.Because both the soul and this flesh and blood body are different from their previous identities. They are like a clay figurine made out of mud again. The only thing related to the previous "I" is the old memory. .

And hearing this, I can't help but be more curious about the identity of the Taoist priest who created the four evil spirits and used the four evil spirits to suppress the mountain. At the same time, I am even more puzzled. If he is just to suppress the chaotic dragon veins, would he spend so much trouble?

"Zhao Changsheng, do you know why I want your heart?" The corpse demon suddenly asked inexplicably.

I shook my head and said, "I don't know..."

"Because my half-corpse, half-devil body looks like a human being, but the most important organ is missing, which is the heart..." The corpse demon said lightly, pointing to my heart.

I took a step back subconsciously, she sneered, and said to me: "Your heart is different from others, when I first saw you, I knew your heart could rest on me! Then I can have feelings, stop being a walking dead, and become like a human being, and have meaning in existence..."

"What? You have no feelings?" I exclaimed in surprise, but after thinking about it, the corpse demon has always been cold and indifferent to everything.

"In the 100 years since my resurrection, I have been observing the people living under the mountain, learning to imitate their expressions, and understanding the reasons for their every emotional change. Later, I did learn, learned to laugh when I am happy, and when I am sad Crying when I was young, I learned to be angry... But this is just a disguise, a kind of performance, no matter what situation I encounter, my heart still has no waves, because I have no heart..." The corpse demon said lightly, maybe At this moment she finally took off her disguise.

Looking at her icy face and hearing what she said just now, while feeling pity in my heart, I was also shocked in my heart. No wonder the expressions and emotions she showed before felt a little weird and unnatural...

I sighed softly. For others, not knowing sadness may be a happy thing, but for corpse demons not knowing being sad is the greatest pain...
