Yu Changle is also a half-demon, but I don't know if it's because his demon power has been sealed as Mr. said, from the outside he is no different from ordinary people; but this young man no longer looks like a human race from the outside.

A man took the lead and cupped his hands and said, "Hello, Elder Xian."

"We are just Taoists." Shen Minghua quickly regained his composure.In front of outsiders, he still looks decent, especially among the three, he looks the most "immortal".

The boy on the ground still didn't make a sound, Yu Changle pulled him up.The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old, he could almost hold his arms in his hands, and his body had a sour smell that hadn't been washed for a long time.But because of his skinny bones, it is not known whether he will be a few years older.

If it wasn't for his clear expression, Yu Changle would have thought he was an idiot.

"What's your name?" Yu Changle bent down and asked in a low voice.

The boy looked at him, opened and closed his mouth, and turned his head silently.

"Broom star!" A man cursed.

Hearing the words, the young man suddenly raised his head, a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, but he finally calmed down and did not defend himself.

Shen Minghua said: "I don't know what happened? Your Excellency is violent to a child, why?"

He looked serious, but the man who kicked people said sharply: "You know what?! He is a crow's mouth, curse whoever dies! He killed dozens of people in the whole village, and cursed our whole village to die. This flood! You only want to help him because you think he looks weak!..."

"Old Seven!" The leader shouted, "Be respectful to the Immortal Elder."

The man known as Lao Qi reluctantly shut up.

Hearing Lao Qi's words, there was no emotion in the boy's red eyes.Ao Yan sneered directly: "Impossible. His demon power is so weak, it would be a big joke if he could cause a flood."

The young man didn't know what kind of demon blood he was mixed with, Yu Changle felt like a black bird demon; but no matter what it was, it was just like what Ao Yan said: he was too weak.

The power to cause mountain torrents and tsunamis is not something such a young little half-monster can do.

Among the two parties in the dispute, those who don't know the truth will subconsciously help the one who seems weaker.But Yu Changle didn't feel that the boy was innocent because of this.

People and demons who have been killed by innocent people will have evil spirits on them.But this boy didn't have it.

Either the man was lying, or there was something else hidden in it.

The three of them knew at a glance that they were spiritual practitioners, and their words were naturally persuasive.The man in the lead seemed to be convinced, and said: "This little monster... This person disappeared half a month ago, but today he suddenly appeared in front of Li Orhu's door, and was spotted by Li Orhu and kicked out."

The boy remained silent.

"Who knows if he wants to put a curse on Old Li! A little monster born from a bitch and a monster..." Lao Qi said.Ao Yan glanced at him, and his voice immediately stuttered.

The young man's gaze was too cold.

These townspeople's malice towards the young man was very obvious. Yu Changle raised his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you tell me how he cast the curse? Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

Lao Qi choked up and said: "I don't know if I haven't seen it? As long as he says who will be unlucky, that person will definitely be unlucky! Isn't this a curse?"

"It's unheard of to cast a curse just by words." Yu Changle said quickly, "I'm afraid you misunderstood."

Having said that, Yu Changle had a guess in his mind.It happened that Ah Lan's voice came through: "This is a descendant of a prophecy crow."

What is a prophecy crow?Yu Changle thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any book about this kind of monster.

"The word 'prophecy' is a prophecy." Alan's tone was like a comment, with a kind of interest in seeing rare things, "The prophecy crow... would actually like the human race? Ha."

"Hey...whatever you say! It's my bad luck." The old seven said arrogantly, and gave the young man a hard look, "I tell you, don't even think about going to Lao Li's house again, he will take you as his apprentice only if he has a sick mind Woolen cloth!"

The leader explained at the right time: "He knelt in front of Li Orion's door early this morning, carrying some wild fruits and scrap metal...According to our rules, he seems to want to... er, worship Hunter as his teacher."

"Take a hunter as your teacher?" Alan asked with a smile.It seems that it has not explained to Yu Changle the will of a monster like the Prophet Crow for the time being, and just watched the show by itself.It's not easy for Yu Changle to talk to a cat, so he had to guess by himself.

If his guess is right, maybe this young man will know something about the flood.

Yu Changle asked, "What's his name?"

"He doesn't have a name, so he's called Cinderella." The leader said.

Yu Changle nodded, he wanted to have a chat with Cinderella alone, preferably with him for a while.Cinderella was very short, and Yu Changle had to squat down to be at eye level with him. He smiled warmly and said, "Little Hui, would you like to learn how to hunt with us?"

Cinderella froze for a moment, as if hesitating.

Lao Qi sneered: "You boy, you are so lucky! The head of the fairy will also accept you as an apprentice, and the daughter of the Sheng family also treats you differently..."

As soon as this sentence came out, the boy's expression really changed.Whether he was just beaten or insulted verbally, he never showed such an expression of extreme grief.

Yu Changle's intuition was wrong, and he shouted: "Stop talking!"

The old seventh man was still talking: "Let's think about it, oh, today seems to be the day when the daughter is buried? I understand, no wonder you will show up today, why? Want to give her a ride? Hahaha..."

Cinderella's expression changed from grief to terrifying, as if he was about to go up and kill that man!

He had a ferocious face, and the pupils shrunk into a thin line in his blood-red eyes. He squatted down with his head in his arms, let out a hoarse cry, and went straight into the universe!The eardrums of Yu Changle who was closest to him trembled, and he took a step back and covered his ears.

The sound was like birdsong and the roar of a dying beast. Yu Changle saw that a clear tear fell out of the half-faced man's eyes.His heart twitched heavily, and he was almost pierced by the emotions contained in it.

There is grief, and, also, self-blame.

"Who is the daughter of the Sheng family?" Ao Yan asked.

Lao Qi was also startled by Cinderella, and he was stunned for a long time before replying: "A small family in Jianxing... I don't know, maybe they are cultivating immortals like you. Their eldest daughter... January He disappeared before, but he was not found, so he was said to be dead. If the team started in the morning, it would be almost time to reach Yunxi Town by now."

"...That's the one." While talking here, one of the men in the crowd carefully pointed his finger.

"clang!--"

When Yu Changle turned his head, snow-white eyes came into view.The mournful sound of the gong sounded, and a long funeral procession stopped at the gate of Yunxi Town, with white flags fluttering, and relatives dressed in white and plain onyx.

In the middle of the procession is a coffin, and a woman in white has been crying softly.She wiped away her tears, looked up at Yunxi Town blankly, her eyes wandered to Cinderella, and suddenly turned into substance, as if she wanted to swallow him alive.

"Give me back my daughter!" The woman rushed up, grabbing the gray boy's shoulders with both hands, and said in a sharp voice, "I'm just such a child! Give me back my daughter, give me back my Aru..."

Everyone was silent for a moment.This woman is well maintained, Yu Changle can see that she is a cultivator with spiritual power, her eyebrows are gentle, and she usually pays attention to self-cultivation.But after losing her daughter, she has lost all her posture, and her spiritual cultivation can maintain her face, but her temples have already appeared hoarfrost that does not match her age.

"Give Aru back to me!...how did you repay her for treating you so kindly!?" The woman sobbed and knelt down, and Cinderella's whole body was stiff, with obvious bewilderment on his face.

"I'm just such a daughter..."

Ah Lan said "Oh?" and said to Yu Changle, "Do you want to meddle in this business?"

After the woman rushed over, a few more people came in the funeral procession.A man who seemed to be the head of the Sheng family supported the woman, his face was also very old, and his eyes were full of sadness.

He cupped his hands to the three of Yu Changle and said: "Looking at the front of Xia Sheng, my family's family affairs made the three friends laugh. I don't know who the friends are?"

"We were passing by..." Shen Minghua replied blankly, and hurriedly returned the salute, "My name is Shen Minghua. This is Yu Changle, and this is Ao Yan."

Yu Changle also returned the salute, and Ao Yan nodded.There are many people with the surname Shen in the world, and there are not none with the surname Ao. Sheng Qianguan didn't care too much, and simply said: "Xianyouyou."

The situation suddenly became so foggy, Ao Yan pressed Yu Changle's shoulder and said in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive."

Sheng Qianguan helped his wife to walk into the team, he seemed to want to comfort him, but all he said was a sigh: "Sisi, don't hurt yourself."

"My Ah Ru, can't you come back just like this?" Mrs. Si said in a daze.

"……No."

At this moment of grief, Cinderella suddenly said, "No! Ah Ru is not dead!"

This was the first time Yu Changle heard his voice, it was still immature, jerky and hoarse because he didn't speak often.

All eyes were on him, and Sheng Qianguan said angrily, "Enough! We've been waiting for a month! A whole month—Ah Ru didn't come back!"

Mrs. Si wept again.The young and powerful head of the Sheng family seemed to have collapsed all of a sudden, and said, "What can I do? What else can I do?! You said that Ah Ru is not dead, so we waited. We waited for a whole month!"

"Liar!" Mrs. Si suddenly raised her hand, and slapped Cinderella hard across the face.This move seemed to have stunned her, she shook her hands, "You said you wanted to bring Ah Ru back, you were simply lying to us!"

The three of Yu Changle stood aside, completely unaware of this development.Shen Minghua still wanted to smooth things over, but he couldn't say anything, so he stood there without embarrassment.

Cinderella bit his lower lip, and suddenly ran into the funeral procession.Mrs. Si lost her voice: "What do you want to do?!"

The young man ran extremely fast, he rushed straight to the coffin, and before the guards could react, he pushed off the coffin lid!

It is a custom here that the coffin lid will not be crucified until the burial place, and Cinderella pushed the coffin lid hard and it fell to the ground.He pushed down the coffin violently again.

This is an empty coffin with no one, only a suit of clothes.The coffin gurgled and rolled to the ground, stained with muddy water.

"Presumptuous!!" Sheng Qianguan was furious, his eyes were about to split, and he pulled out the sword from his waist with a "Zheng", it seemed that he wanted to kill Chui Boy on the spot.

Shen Minghua was completely dumbfounded: "Damn..."

"I'll bring Ah Ru back! She's not dead!" Cinderella roared as he was held up by several guards.Mrs. Si fell to the ground, looking blankly at the team.

"Patriarch Sheng calm down!" "Patriarch Sheng, don't kill him!" Yu Changle and Shen Minghua said at the same time.Sheng Qianguan slashed fiercely with red eyes, but Cinderella shrank back, at this moment rolled out of the encirclement like a loach, and ran away quickly.

With a sound of "clang", Sheng Qianguan's sword fell to the ground.He also sat down beside the empty coffin as if exhausted, in a daze.

"Chasing!" Yu Changle shouted and ran out.

Cinderella saw that he was chasing him in a hurry, let out a hoarse cry from his throat, and flew up unsteadily.Flying and jumping, the speed is already very fast, but no matter how fast it is, how can it be faster than the three orthodox spiritual practitioners?

The boy was running out of the village, but he didn't enter the deep mountains and old forests.But soon, he was overtaken by three people.

Cinderella was sweating profusely in anxiety, and opened his mouth to bite Yu Changle's hand.Yu Changle avoided it quickly with sharp eyes and twisted his hands behind his back. Cinderella staggered to his knees and groaned in pain.

"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." Yu Changle said this sentence very skillfully, and after he finished speaking, he felt that it seemed to make him even more untrustworthy.

he:"……"

Shen Minghua, on the other hand, had the kind face of Mr. Zhang Gui. He squatted down and said kindly, "Son, we won't hand you over to the Sheng family. You don't have to worry, we just want to ask something."

Cinderella stared at him, gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Yu Changle hesitated for a moment, let go of his hand and took a few steps back, sincerely said: "We really just want to ask something - about this flood."

After all, he is still a child. Although he is already a teenager, he obviously hasn't learned to hide his thoughts.Cinderella's face changed, as if he was very scared and very angry.He remained silent, as silent as a mute.

Several people stood there for a while, and Cinderella finally moved.

He stood up and loosened his sore arm from Yu Changle, walked a dozen steps, pushed through the woods, and turned his head, as if motioning for a few people to follow.

"You live in the woods?" Yu Changle followed behind and asked curiously, "That's amazing."

Gray Boy nodded almost invisibly.

Ao Yan was too tall, so he was very restless walking among the branches, and asked, "Why do you live in such a place?"

The muscles on Cinderella's face twitched.Yu Changle tapped Ao Yan's arm.

"...I think it's probably helpless." Shen Minghua whispered.According to the attitude of the townspeople, it seems that it is indeed impossible to live in Yunxi Town.

It was nearly noon when we reached Cinderella's residence.

A section of the forest was cut down, revealing a clearing, and a wooden house was built on the clearing, which was the shelter of the gray boy.The wooden house is hot in summer and cold in winter, so it is not an ideal place to live. When the cold wind blows, it looks even more desolate.

Cinderella didn't care, and led the three of them to open the door.The door was unlocked, just fastened with a wire.

The furnishings in the house are very simple, and the bed is made of animal skins spread on the woodpile.In addition, an iron pot, a chair, and a few broken bowls are all Cinderella's possessions.

Yu Changle stood for a moment, then said, "Let's help you repair the house."

Cinderella looked up at him, his red pupils slightly widened.And the young man in green clothes smiled at him, and said, "We have no strengths, but we are very strong."

Cinderella looked away as if he had been burned, and nodded slightly.He wanted to say "thank you" but didn't say it.

Alan said to the three of them: "Look, I'm showing kindness again."

"Anyway, there's no place to stand, so it's good to do something." Ao Yan was silent for a moment, and choked out a sentence.

"It seems that there is still colored glaze in my Qiankun ring, so I can change the windows." Shen Minghua pushed open the window, and Yu Changle saw some animal bones scattered in Huihai'er's courtyard, as well as a burnt fire. It seemed that this was the The gray boy usually ate.

There was also a simple target in the yard, with chipped wooden arrows on the ground, but only a few had arrowheads on them.The guys before said that Cinderella was going to learn from Orion as a teacher, which turned out to be true.

"I don't think he's a bad guy."

While looking for repair materials, Shen Minghua suddenly said, "He's still so young...just a child. It's just that he looks a little scary. Tell me, what is the relationship between the girl Aru of the Sheng family and him?"

Yu Changle said: "According to the tone of the Sheng family and his wife, Miss Ah Ru doesn't seem to care about Cinderella's half-monster appearance. The relationship between the two of them should be pretty good."

"Then Miss Aru seems to be the only daughter of the Sheng family." Shen Minghua said, "The only daughter is gone... hey."

Not surprisingly, in the future, this Aru girl will inherit the Sheng family and be the head of the Sheng family, but now she is missing, and the Sheng family couple is sent by a white-haired person to a black-haired person.

"If you want to help, don't gossiping, act quickly." Ao Yan said from a distance, throwing a branch.

The wooden house is very dilapidated, with air leakage on all sides.But the three young people were quick in their hands and feet, even if they were not proficient at the beginning, they packed up when the sky darkened.The wooden house has finally reached the point where it can barely live in.

Cinderella cooked the meat for them, and stared at them blankly through the mist.He looked at the glazed mirror again, and carefully touched it with his hand.

Seeing Yu Changle looking at him, he hurriedly lowered his head again, pretending to be stirring the meat in the pot.

Yu Changle turned his head to A Lan and said softly: "Is it so difficult to say thank you? For him." He actually didn't care whether Cinderella thanked him or not, but the boy's thoughts were clearly on his face. Just want to say but dare not say.

A Lan said: "After all, he is a prophecy crow."

Yu Changle raised his eyebrows.

The meat lacked salt and tasted fishy. Shen Minghua and Ao Yan couldn't finish it after one bite, while Yu Changle ate a bowl.When he was a child, he was often harmed by his master's cooking skills.

Cinderella looked a little lonely, looked left and right, scooped up a bowl of meat and put it in front of Ah Lan.He even cared about a cat.

Alan seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and said, "Boy, do you know what you are?"

With a bang, Cinderella stood up with a look of surprise on his face, as if to say: How can a cat talk?Could it be a monster! ?

"You are the offspring of the prophecy crow and human beings." Alan said, continuing to explain.Yu Changle also listened attentively, and only then did he know what the prophecy crow is.

In short, this is a kind of monster that can be predicted.But their predictions have always been "bad" and "harmful" things, and they can also be called "disasters", so "prophecy" that "one word becomes a prophecy" became their name.

People in the world say "crow's mouth", and there are different opinions on the origin.But it is undeniable that it must be related to the prophecy crow.

The demon form of the prophecy crow is the same as that of a crow, except that it is bigger, and its eyes are blood red. If it screams three times at a person, it means that this person will encounter disaster.

The prophecy crow in human form can even specifically say what kind of disaster this person will encounter.

"There are still monsters in this world who can predict the future..." Yu Changle wondered.

Alan corrected: "It's not foreknowledge, it's inference."

Everything in the world has a cause and an effect.The prophecy crow has a strong perception of the "cause", and then instinctively pushes out the "fruit". Once the "cause" is changed, the "effect" will also change accordingly.

In ancient times, the number of crows was not so rare, but after the prosperity of the human race, the crows declined, and even became extinct for a time.

Who doesn't want to change their future?

A monster that can transform into a human form cannot be too ugly.It is conceivable that Chen Ya was arrested and imprisoned as a confinement.Most of the prophecy crows who have survived to this day are powerful demons, so Alan said, "The prophecy crows will also like humans?".

Shen Minghua said: "I've learned a lot! This is the first time I know this kind of monster."

Even when Cinderella was silent, there was a fierce look on Cinderella's expression, like a vigilant beast.At this moment, he was a little dazed, staring at Alan in a daze.Yu Changle thought for a while, and said, "Do you think that speaking by yourself is bringing disaster, so you don't want to speak?"

Gray Boy froze.

"Then you are wrong, it's not like this." Yu Changle said gently but firmly, "The inferences you said are not caused by you. Instead, they should thank you, and maybe they can avoid disasters."

Cinderella raised his head and said cautiously: "Really?"

Yu Changle said: "Of course it's true."

Cinderella thought for a long time, and said: "Be careful tomorrow morning, you will be hit on the head by a branch."

Yu Changle: "..."

Shen Minghua let out a burst of laughter, Yu Changle maintained his smile and said, "...Thank you."

"So, you foresaw the flood before?" Ao Yan asked, looking at Chui Haier, "What's the matter with the daughter of the Sheng family?"

Chui Hai'er only showed a little smile at first, but now it all faded away, and he didn't speak anymore.

Yu Changle put down the bowl and said, "When you want to talk, just tell us."

The three of them spent the night in the homestay in Yunxi Town, and came to Cinderella's hut early the next morning.

Sure enough, Yu Changle was hit by a branch, and went to the wooden house with a small bag on his head.

Ao Yan laughed unceremoniously, and Yu Changle said depressedly: "How did I know that a branch would suddenly stick out?? I have lived in the mountains for 19 years, and I have never been hit by a branch!"

"The trees here are different from those in Sichuan, and that's the first reason." A Lan was unceremonious, with a mocking tone, "The second reason is your character. You definitely don't pay attention to the height and shape of the trees here. Special feature, walking at night and looking at the soles of the feet."

Yu Changle had nothing to say.

Small things like this can be seen because they are relatively obvious.But the bigger the "effect", the more mixed the "cause" is, which has already been integrated into everyday things, which is not something ordinary people can see.

In the courtyard, Cinderella was practicing archery, concentrating on it, and when he shot an arrow, it hit the bull's-eye. Yu Changle couldn't help clapping his hands and said, "Okay!"

Chui Hai'er shook his hands, stared at him for a long time, and then reluctantly said: "...Thank you."

"You are very talented, would you like to learn archery from us?" Yu Changle said happily, "Although my skills are not particularly good, I know a lot about it."

This is not bragging, he has a natural feel for any weapon, otherwise he would not be able to learn the stick and practice the sword at the same time.

Cinderella remained silent, Yu Changle changed the subject and said, "What are you practicing archery for? Is it for that girl Aru?"

Both Shen Minghua and Ao Yan looked over, Cinderella became at a loss, his eyes wandered, and finally fell on Yu Changle. "Don't be afraid, just tell us." Yu Changle said softly, "You can tell us about Miss Aru first."

"...She..." Cinderella said with difficulty, "She is a very good person. She is the only one who treats me well."

After saying these words, Cinderella's eyes suddenly turned red.He sniffed and murmured: "But I hurt her, she disappeared—she disappeared because of me!"

Big tears fell from Cinderella's eyes. If the previous tear was to endure the pain, it seemed that he wanted to vent all his gloom and sadness now.Chui Haier cried like a child, all the hostility he had put on had faded away, his face was distorted from crying, and tears flowed down his face.

"You want to find her, don't you?" Yu Changle asked softly.

To worship Orion as a teacher shows that Cinderella wants to "hunt" something, and combined with the disappearance of the daughter of the Sheng family, it is not difficult to guess the reason.

He must have been holding back for a long time.I have been patient since three months ago, living in the dark woods, polishing those arrowheads alone.Enduring crying, wanting revenge.

Yu Changle knelt down and hugged him, he held Yu Changle's clothes tightly, and cried, "It would be great if I didn't tell her, she wouldn't be taken away by the Deer God...Woo!...Ahhh ah!"

"It's okay, it's okay. It's not your fault." Yu Changle stroked his back gently, "You've done a good job."

Ao Yan also came over and said, "You just said, Deer God?"

"——Deer." Cinderella seemed to have been injected with courage, and said in a daze, "I saw the white deer god. It...it brought disaster to us."
