Chapter 5 Demonless
"What's your name?" Lu Yu went up and stood in front of the teenager. At this time, the children around him were stunned and stopped scolding and attacking.
"Who are you and why are you in our tribe?" One of the bolder boys shouted to Lu Yu. Lu Yu did not answer when he heard the words, and his eyes were always wandering on the teenager. The latter's forehead was bleeding and his eyes were as vigilant, like a trapped beast in a cage, staring at Lu Yu without any fear. At this time, Chu Mengxuan came forward. The children were obviously familiar with her, and their faces changed slightly. Several people whispered a few words and immediately dispersed.
"What's your name?" Lu Yu asked again, but the teenager didn't say a word and turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as he moved, he was blocked by Lu Yu.
"I helped you relieve the siege. Don't you even say thank you?" Lu Yu laughed. The young man's eyes were bright, like stars. He looked at Lu Yu and shouted coldly, "I don't want your help. At worst, I will be killed by them." The teenager is surprisingly stubborn and has an unyielding look in his eyes.
"Oh, it turns out that your people treat their benefactors like this!" Lu Yu said deliberately, with a look of ridiculing in his eyes.
The teenager's face stiffened and suddenly shouted, "My name is Yao Wuyi!" The voice was tender but particularly touching. After a word, he turned around and ran away, as if he were a surprised bird in the forest, leaving Lu Yu standing still and slightly distracted.
"There is no demon... With demon as the surname, can't Taoism be one? Lu Yu chewed the name strangely and repeatedly: " Even the name is so special. This teenager is really different."
"What's wrong? Have you found anything?" Chu Mengxuan came up and asked. Lu Yu shook his head with a smile: "Not only did he not ask anything, but he also fell into a bad reputation for being nosy."
"Maybe it's just your illusion. How can a teenager from a demon tribe be involved with you?" Chu Mengxuan said that he was obviously a little disapproving of Lu Yu's inexplicable feeling.
"I don't think so. Let's explore the details of this boy first." Lu Yu said softly.
Under the guidance of Chu Mengxuan, Lu Yu found the elder of the clan. He was an old man in the secret place of the holy fetus. His hair was white and his body was rickety, which was more aging than that of the old patriarch. When the elder heard that Lu Yu and the two came to inquire about the demon, his turbid eyes suddenly glowed, and his trembling body trembled more violently.
"Did that boy bump into the distinguished guest?" The elder asked, obviously very concerned. Lu Yu hurriedly waved his hand to say no, just to find out some information.
When the elder heard the words, he put down his heart and breathed a sigh of relief and slowly said, "No one is also a bitter child. His father died in the rat tide when he was born. Two years later, her mother was attracted by the brother of the nearby red-eye wolf clan and wanted to be forcibly taken as a concubine. The child's mother would rather He didn't die. As a result, he was thrown into the cave by the beast and was spoiled by several unformed barbarians. When he was sent back, his body was already incomplete and died soon.
The elder sighed, with a trace of regret and resentment in his tone. Chu Mengxuan frowned slightly and showed his intolerance. Lu Yu nodded thoughtfully. At this time, he listened to the elder continue to say, "This child has had no parents since he was a child and was adopted by a couple in the clan. He thought that his suffering was over. Who knew that the six-year-year-old wasteland fell from the sky. Demon fire, this is an unknown disaster. Many tribes have been killed and injured, and his adoptive parents were also killed in the disaster. Even his two children were not spared, but he survived. From then on, the clan began to discuss that the child was born as a disaster star. He was born unknown and would defeat all his relatives, so after that, he became an orphan. Some kind-hearted people in the tribe often helped him with some food rations, but no one dared to approach him. Over time, he became an unmanage wild child.
"What a miserable child..." Chu Mengxuan couldn't bear it and sighed softly.
"Is there anything special about this child besides these?" Lu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.
"Strange place?" The elder thought about it and suddenly said before he encouraged it too much, "There are also special places, which is because of this incident that the child's status in the clan has become lower."
"What's the matter?" Lu Yu asked.
"This child is born unable to practice." The elder said slowly. Lu Yu frowned when he heard the words, looked at the other party with some uncertainty and said, "Can't you practice? Is there something wrong with this child's constitution?
The elder shook his head and sighed softly, "This is not true. Our demon clan is different from human beings. At first, it started by swallowing the essence of heaven and earth, the energy of the sun and the moon, and then through the practice of law. Although our demon spirit is thin, it is also a line of its own. However, this child is difficult to get close to heaven and earth and cannot practice any method. Door, let alone swallow the essence of the sun and moon.
"Is there such a thing?" Lu Yuqi said, "Have you found out the reason?"
"No." The elder waved his hand and said, "This child is regarded as a disaster in the clan. If he can't practice, the child will definitely live out for a hundred years, which is the best in the eyes of the clan, so when the patriarchs are helpless, everyone is too lazy to delve into it."
"At present, Leiyun City is about to hold a demon certification conference, and all ethnic groups have to pay tribute, and this child is rightly counted as a gift slave in the congratulatory list." The elder's words surprised Lu Yu.
"The gift-giving team will leave in three days?" Lu Yu was slightly stunned and then asked.
The elder nodded, and Lu Yu smiled and said, "It turned out to be a colleague. I really have some fate with this child." When the elder heard this, he had some doubts and asked Lu Yu. The latter waved his hand and said that he had nothing to do. He turned around and left with Chu Mengxuan.
How's it going? Do you still think you have a connection with that teenager?" Chu Mengxuan asked on the way back.
Lu Yu shook his head and said, "I'm not sure yet. I just think this teenager is very special, inherently unknown and difficult to practice. I don't know why. When I first saw him, I had an inexplicable feeling that it was difficult to tell in words."
"You don't have to think too much about it. If you feel good, I'm afraid that the cause and effect of what Elder Jun said will still fall on this child. He will go with us in about three days, and everything will be known after arriving." Chu Mengxuan said, Lu Yu nodded silently, and the two figures moved forward in the wilderness and gradually disappeared into the night.
Three days later, Lu Yu and the two arrived as scheduled. The team of the 'qi yao' family were ready to go, and the tribute was full of two carts, all of which were pulled by mastiffs unique to the dry wilderness. The purple mane rustled in the strong wind, and smoke splashed between the claws and hoofs. It was the elder yesterday who was responsible for escorting him. He saw Lu Yu and the two came, greeted them enthusiastically and brought them into the car account in front of them.
The convoy moved slowly, drove far away, and finally disappeared into the sight of the strange demons.
"The patriarch has something important to do. He left yesterday and couldn't come to see him off. Don't be surprised if you haven't seen him yet." Inside the car, the fragrance was lingering, and the purple car bell sounded crisply. The elder boiled a furnace of fragrant tea and said in apologizing.
"The elder is welcome. We have been talking about it for so long. If we want to make amends, it should be us." Lu Yu said softly and raised his hands.
The fragrant tea was poured into the jade cup, and the fog steamed, and the mellow and rich blended into the fragrance. After tasting it a little, Lu Yu put down the jade cup and asked, "I don't know where the demon is now?"
The elder looked motionless when he heard the words. It seemed that Lu Yu's problem was expected by him. He only heard him say, "No one is in the convoy behind us at this time."
"Lu Xiaoyou seems to care about this child."
"I just feel more related to him." Lu Yu laughed softly and vaguely over the question. Seeing this situation, the elder did not ask much, but just raised the jade cup and tasted the fragrant tea.
