Report to the lady! The young masters are madly infatuated with a village girl
Chapter 42 Immortality
However, Xuanyuan Ji's next move shocked her even more.
He picked up a sharp dagger from the plate and cut his wrist without hesitation.
Blood gushed out instantly, staining his palms red.
Yang Xining exclaimed and instinctively wanted to speak, but saw Xuanyuan Ji gently wiped away the blood with a tissue.
"Look." He raised his wrist and showed it to Yang Xining.
"same here."
The wound has healed as if it had never been injured.
Yang Xining stared at the scene blankly, with a hint of astonishment in his eyes.
Could it be... Could it be... that he also has a special physique.
Xuanyuan Ji explained calmly: "This is the secret of my survival. My body has an extraordinary recovery ability. No matter how serious the injury is, it can heal quickly. This is why Li Wanqing is afraid of me. I am - immortal."
"immortal?"
Yang Xining's thoughts were in a mess.
It seems that this word is very strange and distant.
She still didn't believe that the child in front of her was an old man over 800 years old. She cursed directly: "What bullshit are you talking about?"
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Ji took out a piece of purple fish from the plate, hesitated for a while, handed it to Yang Xining, and asked carefully: "Do you know this thing? Has anyone given it to you?"
Yang Xining looked at the piece of fish meat emitting a faint glow, her clear eyes widened, and her red lips slightly parted: "Hey, isn't this the purple-scaled fish that my mother used to cook for me?"
Purple scale fish?
Xuanyuan Ji paused.
Is it that mermaid meat is called differently?
Seeing Xuanyuan Ji was silent, Yang Xining added seriously, "The meat is a bit bitter. You need to mix some onions, garlic, vinegar and other seasonings to neutralize the bitter taste and make the fish more delicious."
After listening to Yang Xining's explanation, Xuanyuan Ji couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He was obviously speechless by Yang Xining's serious reply.
He gritted his teeth and said, "This is not a purple-scaled fish. Look carefully, this is mermaid meat."
"Mermaid meat? What does that mean? Is it a new delicacy in City A?"
"This is not a delicacy!" Xuanyuan Ji couldn't help but hold his forehead and roared: "This is the meat of a mermaid, which is extremely poisonous in the world."
She shook her head gently, her long eyelashes fluttering, and said sarcastically, "Are you making up a story? Where are the mermaids in this world?"
Xuanyuan Ji looked at her, with a sinister gleam in his eyes.
"Okay, you still don't believe it, right? Then let me let you feel it now, am I making up a story?"
He pressed a mechanism and the door under the bed suddenly opened, and Yang Xining fell in unexpectedly.
"what……"
Her screams echoed in the empty basement, but Xuanyuan Ji seemed not to hear it. He just watched coldly from above.
Yang Xining was hanging in a cold and damp space, surrounded by a suffocating fear.
She tried hard to adapt and glanced around. Suddenly, her pupils dilated instantly.
It turned out that in a corner of the basement, there was a terrifying and ferocious big-eyed monster lurking.
The monster that had been imprisoned for a long time found a beam of light shining in from above and let out a shrill roar: "Ah——"
Slowly walked towards Yang Xining.
Yang Xining, who was hung upside down, was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe. She closed her eyes tightly and kept cursing Xuanyuan Ji in her heart.
She finally understood that he was the one who did all this.
The little boy who always seemed so handsome to her turned out to be such a scary person.
However, the big-eyed monster just walked forward to take a curious look and did not attack Yang Xining.
However, its attention was attracted by Xuanyuan Ji who was looking down from above, and it roared at him.
"Ow—"
Xuanyuan Ji now felt relieved.
There must be something magical about Yang Xining.
Otherwise, why wouldn't this brutal and inhumane orc merman attack her?
He pulled up Yang Xining who was hanging in the air. The sinister look in his eyes was gone, but instead there was a hint of worry and anxiety.
"are you OK?"
Yang Xining looked at him, anger and fear intertwined in his heart.
She moved back slightly and said through gritted teeth: "Xuanyuan Ji, it turns out you did it all!"
Xuanyuan Ji nodded expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice: "This monster is the orc-merman."
Yang Xining was stunned after hearing this and asked in confusion: "Orc-merman? What is that?"
Xuanyuan Ji sighed and said slowly: "The orc-merman is an ordinary human who ate the flesh of a mermaid. Not only did he not become immortal, but he mutated and turned into a half-human, half-fish monster."
After hearing this, Yang Xining shuddered. The horrifying appearances of those monsters emerged in her mind. She murmured to herself, "Half human, half fish? No wonder I saw fins behind them."
Xuanyuan Ji directly told the story: "Eight hundred years ago, I was born in a poor fishing village and lived with my mother. I remember one day, there was no food at home, and my mother and I were starving. I had to go out to look for food, and suddenly I found an unidentified object emerging from the shore. Her upper body was that of a human, and her lower body was a fish tail."
Having said that, Xuanyuan Ji glanced at Yang Xining.
Yang Xining's heart skipped a beat.
Isn't that a mermaid?
Are there really mermaids in the world?
Xuanyuan Ji continued, "Thinking of my mother who was still hungry at home, I decided to take this mermaid home. However, I was still young and not strong enough to drag the whole mermaid home. I had no choice but to cut off the meat from the mermaid and bring it back to feed my mother."
At this point, Xuanyuan Ji's little face showed a trace of bitter sneer: "Haha, I didn't expect that this action would be the beginning of a nightmare."
"That night, after my mother ate the meat, her behavior started to become abnormal. Her body suddenly underwent terrible changes. Soon, she turned into a cruel and brutal merman, constantly hunting me down. She also ripped out the hearts and stomachs of all the people in the village overnight."
After hearing this, Yang Xining's expression froze and his eyes were filled with shock.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Ji's eyes revealed a layer of sadness: "On that day, I lost my mother and became an orphan. I have been wandering the streets, going through countless days and nights, wind, frost, rain and snow, enduring the cold eyes and bullying of the world, and becoming the loneliest existence in the world, an orphan who will never grow up."
"Yes, I have grown up, but my body has always remained at the age of seven. Whenever I see people of my age getting married, having children, and enjoying the happiness of family life, my heart is filled with endless sadness and helplessness. My appearance makes me a weak person in the eyes of others. They bully and humiliate me, as if I were a homeless vagrant. I have searched for adults who can protect me countless times, but in the end, they all leave me due to old age, sickness, and death."
"In order to get rid of this endless loneliness and despair, I thought of mermaid meat. If..." There was a crazy light flashing in Xuanyuan Ji's eyes.
His gaze met that of Yang Xining.
"If I let others eat the mermaid's flesh and gain eternal life like me, wouldn't they be able to stay with me forever?"
"So, I found the mermaid I had hidden. I cut the meat from her body and kept persuading adults to eat the mermaid's meat. But the results were not what I wanted. They either died or turned into orc-mermen."
When Yang Xining heard this, he was terrified and his brows knitted tightly.
In order to find someone to accompany him, Xuanyuan Ji actually harmed so many innocent people.
Damn it! ! !
