Chapter 12 Demon
The sky has gradually darkened. In the huge house, only Long Xiaoqi stood in front of the window and looked at the expression on his face, which seemed to be very anxious and impatient. Maybe it reminds me of the Dragon War Army! In a word, Long Xiaoqi no longer looks like it. She frowned and kept tapping on the window sill with her fingers, looking worried.
"The patriarch!" The voice of the waiter came from outside the door. Long Xiaoqi was shocked that it was not Duguyun who could be called the patriarch by others in the whole Dugu family! But what is he doing here? Do you want to plot against yourself?
"Squeak..." The door was pushed open. Duguyun came in in a wide dress and saw Long Xiaoqi standing next to the window sill, smiling and nodding politely.
"You all go down! I want to talk to Xiaoqi something. Duguyun called Long Xiaoqi affectionately for the first time. After saying that, Duguyun closed the door and walked to the window.
"Ha ha, you must be curious about why I came at this time!" Duguyun's face was full of smiles, and there was no domineering posture at all.
Long Xiaoqi didn't say anything, but looked at Duguyun warily and had nothing to do - rape or thief.
"Then why don't you sit down? I'll tell you slowly. If you have any other questions, I can also answer them one by one." After saying that, Dugu Yun stretched out his hand and signaled that Long Xiaoqi could sit on the chair.
"There are some things that Xianyi has told you, but what I want you to know is that the melee of the eight families is not what we want to see, and the reason why it happened is completely inevitable." These four words have been familiar to Long Xiaoqi, but what else can make them have no choice but to do for this Dugu family with one hand covering the sky?
"So, I want to tell you that the Dugu family has no malice towards you, at least I don't mean anything to you." Dugu Yun said very delicately. In the dark, Long Xiaoqi could also feel that the Dugu family did not seem to be as iron as he imagined.
"Everything has its own reason for existence, and our lonely family is no exception. Xianyi has told you that our Dugu family is born as a guardian, and what we guard is a person who we don't even know whether it really exists. Speaking of this, Duguyun's tone seemed to be a little sad, as if recalling something in the past, with a melancholy look on his face.
"If it's just because of these, that's all, but more cruel things are happening, and it's because of this that some innocent people in our Dugu family lose their lives in vain every year." Duguyun looked out of the window and looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance. Who would know that under this beautiful scenery, it used to be hell.
"Lost your life in vain?" Long Xiaoqi couldn't understand Duguyun's words. Normally, even in the Long family, they will never let any clan lose their lives in vain, not to mention that such an incredible thing will happen in the Dugu family, which is far better than the Long family.
"Yes! Lost your life in vain! And this happens every year, but we can't stop it. Unless..." At this point, Dugu Yun paused and took a look at Long Xiaoqi.
"Unless what?" Long Xiaoqi asked impatiently. In terms of planning, he was still far from Duguyun.
"Unless we find the person our Dugu family has been waiting for." Duguyun's words made Long Xiaoqi's heart cool. Isn't that the same as not saying? No one knows where the person waiting is and what he looks like. How can people find it? Do blind people touch elephants?
Long Xiaoqi stared at Duguyun. For some reason, he always felt that there must be many secrets hidden in Duguyun's heart. These secrets may be his personal affairs, but they may also be shocking inside stories. If they are known by outsiders, they will definitely cause panic in the world.
"Up to now, our Dugu family has not completely found that person. Although we have been looking for that person every generation every year, we can't find that person anyway." Duguyun lowered his head and his face was full of depression. He thought he was fully capable of finding that person. Unexpectedly, even now, the whole thing still didn't seem to have much clue, and everything was just his own conjecture.
"Oh! That's right." Speaking of this, Long Xiaoqi doesn't know what to say. How can Long Xiaoqi say it clearly in one or two words after thousands of years of hard search?
"To this end, our Dugu family has done a lot of things for only one purpose, that is, to find out the person that our Dugu family has been guarding for thousands of years." Duguyun turned his eyes to Long Xiaoqi. I don't know why Long Xiaoqi always feels that Duguyun's eyes seem to be a little strange.
Looking at Long Xiaoqi's puzzled face, Dugu Yun finally couldn't help it.
"And the melee between your eight families was carefully planned by our lonely family." As soon as the words came out, Duguyun saw Long Xiaoqi's face suddenly change. In Long Xiaoqi's heart, he always thought that the Dugu family was just a threwright invited by the Oriental family. Although the destruction of the Long family had an inseparable relationship with the Dugu family, Long Xiaoqi was more ruthless to the Oriental family. But now it seems that Long Xiaoqi hates the wrong person.
"I said that our Dugu family also has no choice but to. We just want to find the person who is guarded." Duguyun seemed to be a little innocent, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with him.
"Do you have to sacrifice the lives of so many people in order to find that person and let your lonely family die a few fewer people every year? In the melee of the eight major families, except for the Murong family, almost all other families are extermination. Can your Dugu family afford the consequences? Long Xiaoqi roared, and today, he was finally able to release all the anger in his heart. Most importantly, he finally knew the behind-the-scenes of the whole thing and the real reason for it.
"No! The whole thing is not what you think at all, you know? If we don't find that person, it will not only be the people of our lonely family who will die, but even the whole country of China and the whole world, which may accept the doomsday sanctions. Duguyun said quickly and seemed to be very excited when he saw his expression.
"Hmm! What evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true? Long Xiaoqi is still unconvinced and destroys life for the sake of life. In Long Xiaoqi's eyes, it is still unforgivable.
"Let me tell you a story, which contains the history and mission of our Dugu family. Maybe when you listen to the whole story, you will understand." Duguyun did not show the dignity of the patriarch. Perhaps, in this matter, he also felt that he owed something to the Long family, otherwise he would not have helped the Long Zhan army break through.
Long Xiaoqi nodded and sat in the chair. He has listened to too many stories these days and doesn't care about wasting some time listening to Duguyun's story.
"That's still a saying in ancient times. It is said that the demon broke through the seal and led his people back to the world, making the people restless at that time, and almost the whole earth fell into a state of destruction. Naturally, the great gods of the East and the West will not sit back and wait for death, watching the world die at the hands of the demons. However, everything is far from as simple as they thought. Although they thought at the beginning that the demon was not easy to deal with, they did not expect that even the gods could not resist the magic of the demon. Because the demon is an incarnation condensed by all demons. Although he has no entity, he does not need an entity, because this will only become his fetter. And the demon not only has unparalleled power, but also has strong vitality. If you want him to die, unless there is no magic in the world. Humph! Without magic spirit, how can it be possible? Not to mention the general demon clan, even people or animals, will also have selfishness and evil spirit. These are the fundamentals of the existence of demons. That is to say, if he wants to die, unless he can really do it without evil thoughts in his heart, he will fly away with the demon. Duguyun squeezed his lips and continued to talk.
"At that time, there was no great god with boundless power, because everything was relative. Although the demon is also relatively powerful, the cost of destroying him is really unbelievable, that is, almost all life will be destroyed, and gods, demons and people will die at the same time, because only in this way can the demon's backway be completely cut off. But if you do this, what's the difference from the demon ruling the world? It's also death, but in a different way. Therefore, the gods discussed it and finally made an amazing decision. I don't know what this decision is, but I only know that the final result is that the demon is sealed in the endless abyss, and the entrance to the abys is in our space. It was at that time that our Dugu family was selected as the guardian, guarding the person who could save the world again and guarding the entrance to this abyss. Speaking of this, there was a faint sadness in Duguyun's eyes. Every year, people in the Dugu family die at the entrance of the abyss. They are using their lives to maintain that boundary to this day! Their deaths should have been recorded in history, but who would know now? Today's consequences are only because they are from the Dugu family, just because the Dugu family is the guardian.
Long Xiaoqi seemed to understand something, and the anger on her face slowly dissipated, but she still waited for Duguyun to continue to talk with a serious face, because he knew that the whole thing must not be simple, and even related to the world, and those dead dragon families, perhaps, even do their best for the world. The latter power!
