The whereabouts of the Nineteenth Fate
The heat wave was not very powerful, but because of the clear target, Yan Luo, who had already distanced himself from them, had to step back some distance. When Yan Luo stood firm and looked up again, he happened to see Tang
Yuan Yuan slid all the way down from Zhen's body and landed steadily.
The first thing Tang Yuanyuan did when he landed on the ground was to pat Zhen's leg, and then whispered a warning to Zhen who had already put his head next to her.
"Zhen, you change back first. If the situation changes later, you may need to transform and lead us to escape, so save some of your spiritual power first, we still need trump cards."
Tsumugi nodded slightly after listening to her words, and then the huge fox body began to shrink instantly, but in a moment, it returned to its original fox size with the wind of the breathing belt. After it spun around on the ground, it immediately turned over again.
Jumped onto Tang Yuanyuan's shoulders.
Before coming out of the Life and Death Detention Center, Zhen once mentioned to her that because it had been sealed in that space for too long, its spiritual power had been being suppressed and devoured, becoming less and less. In fact, there was not much left.
It was able to break through the shackles and leave that space entirely because of the contract with Tang Yuanyuan and the drop of spiritual blood it swallowed. The contractors in the blood contract can share part of the spiritual power and essence from each other, so it can be said that it is almost
It was with the help of Tang Yuanyuan that it returned to its original appearance.
However, because the contract has just been established, the connection between them is not stable enough, so there is not much spiritual power that can support its true form at this time.
Tang Yuanyuan believes that its spiritual power cannot be wasted to build momentum. After all, judging from the circle of ghosts gathered at the outermost edge just now, if they want to leave or break out of the encirclement, it is best to have monsters as large as Zhen take action.
choice, so she felt that now she needed to preserve her strength and leave a way out.
Of course, there was a reason why she didn't call out to Tsui immediately and just started attacking the ghosts on the opposite side and the ghosts outside. This was because the moment she came out to observe the surrounding environment, she was keenly aware that although they seemed to be facing a roundup, the matter was not over yet.
Get to the point where you have to fight.
After all, No. 4 was able to stand alone in a ring of fire with a ghost, and at the beginning, he was relatively close and did not fight. Maybe it means that they still have something to talk about... At least No. 4 has his own reasons for not making a move.
.
So her choice was to re-open the distance between the two to create a buffer and give herself an opportunity to understand the situation.
After confirming that Yan Luo on the opposite side was worried about something and had no intention of approaching immediately, Tang Yuanyuan turned back to look at No. 4, who seemed to be still buffering, and said:
"Now you have the conscience to say sorry? Why didn't you say it when you pushed me in?"
"I almost couldn't find a way out... That red rope of yours is too unreliable. It broke off by itself not long after I saw the life and death book... Can you do it before calling someone next time?
Some reliable preparations?"
"Have you really seen life and death?"
No. 4 was startled when he heard the words. Tang Yuanyuan heard a bit of surprise in his words, and couldn't help but frowned: "What do you mean? Don't you want me to find the life and death boss? Are you not sure that you tell me
Whether my method can see life and death, is it just an experiment?"
No. 4 looked at her and did not answer her question. Instead, he looked at her face and slowly approached her. Finally, he stopped about one meter away from her. He instinctively raised his hand as if to think.
He touched her, but in the end he stopped halfway.
Then he took a sudden breath and retracted his hand, avoiding her doubtful eyes and lowering his head and said: "...It's not important anymore, it'll be great if you can come back."
His originally restless mood calmed down the moment he saw Tang Yuanyuan's face. Seeing the girl standing in front of him unscathed, he actually felt a sense of peace that he had never experienced in a hundred years.
Tang Yuanyuan, on the other hand, looked at the other party's behavior and felt puzzled.
...What's so inexplicable? Didn't you ask me to go in and check the person's information? Why did she suddenly say "it's not important anymore"... Could it be that she was really working for nothing?
Although it's hard to say whether the information she really got was really useful... Tang Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel guilty for a moment when she thought of this. After briefly glancing at the door of the detention center, she happened to meet No. 4's eyes again.
.
"You..." No. 4 looked at her and hesitated for a moment, then glanced at the hand with the red string tied on it, and then asked: "How did it come out...?"
Wasn't the leading relationship between them broken? So how did Tang Yuanyuan, a human being, find her way back in that space? Why did that space let her out? That one suddenly appeared next to her
What happened to the fox demon?
He wanted to ask Tang Yuanyuan these things, but unfortunately it was not convenient for him to ask them at this moment.
Tang Yuanyuan thought about his question for a while before answering:
"It's a long story...I'll tell you the details later when I have the opportunity. Anyway, in the end, I still came back the old way, following fate."
"Speaking of this, there is something very strange that you haven't noticed yet."
As she spoke, she raised her right hand and showed No. 4 the red thread tied on her little finger.
"It seems that the bond between us has not been completely severed, but I don't know whether the red thread was reconnected after the red rope was disconnected, or whether it actually existed from the beginning."
No. 4 looked at the red thread on her finger and his pupils trembled for a moment. Then he immediately raised his hand to verify Tang Yuanyuan's words. He found that the tip of his little finger was indeed wrapped with a red thread, and the red thread extended all the way, and the other end was tied to Tang Yuan.
The edge of the little fingertip.
The moment he saw the red line on the tip of his little finger, No. 4's mood was unprecedentedly complicated.
"I don't know the specific reason, but the relationship was not completely broken, so I followed him out."
Tang Yuanyuan added a few more words as he spoke, but noticed that there was a look of surprise on No. 4's face, so he immediately realized that he didn't know what Yuan was about, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Number 4 was silent for a while, and did not dwell too much on this matter for the time being. When he spoke again, he asked directly: "Then what happened after you saw the life and death book? What about the information I want you to check?" She
Where is his whereabouts? What did you see in the Book of Life and Death?"
"Shall we say it directly now? Should we consider getting out first?"
As he spoke, Tang Yuanyuan glanced in the direction of Yan Luo, only to find that the latter had no intention of getting closer, which made him feel a little strange.
Number 4 thought she was worried about not being able to escape after telling him everything, so he took the lead and promised:
"Don't worry, I will ensure your safety no matter what."
Since the other party had said so, Tang Yuanyuan felt that it would be bad not to speak, so he frowned and decided to keep the story short.
"I didn't see her name on the life and death book, nor the location of her soul. All I saw was a bloody word 'Yuan' soaked in the entire roll of paper... Then the fate was broken. You said that
It is a symbol of the completion of the price..."
"The title scroll is nameless, and the seal is stained with blood. This is a symbol that this soul is not where it should be... What does it mean? Didn't she enter the cycle of life and death?"
"But you can still find her information... The word 'Yuan' is condensed on the life and death sheet, which means that her soul has not dissipated. It may just be that she is not where she should be now. If she is dead... then her current soul
The most likely possibility is in the human world?"
No. 4 frowned and suddenly realized something. Then he turned his attention to Yama in the distance, pulled Tang Yuanyuan behind him again, and then took a few steps forward from her to question Yama on the other side.
"Did you send her to the human world?"
"She has disappeared since then. No one except the Book of Life and Death knows her choice." Yama said in response to his words, and his tone did not sound like there was any lie. "She is a unique soul.
They are definitely not ordinary human beings, and sometimes they don’t even seem to belong to our world..."
"With such a human being, how can you have any definite way to find out her whereabouts?"
After Yan Luo said these words, he just shook his head, and No. 4 also fell into silence.
Tang Yuanyuan looked at the two people who were in a stalemate, and vaguely realized that the person No. 4 was looking for might be a famous figure. In short, many people knew about her existence, and she also said "after that" many times.
, and she sensed that a big change might have happened somewhere before "she" disappeared.
Just when she was about to think about it, she suddenly heard a whisper in her ear from Zun, who had been quiet all this time.
"Yuanyuan, is the 'person' you said you wanted to take away with you the guy next to you?"
"Huh?" When she heard Tsumugi's question, she reacted quickly, and then whispered: "Actually speaking, he should send us away, but in this situation... I don't think it's easy to say."
Tsunade stood on her shoulder and sneered: "It's really hard to say. I can feel that most of the spiritual power in his body seems to be suppressed. If you rely on him for everything, I'm afraid it won't be that useful."
"And I know the guy opposite. He was the ghost king of the underworld, Yama, for more than a hundred years. The ghost king and so many evil soldiers have been dispatched to arrest him. I'm afraid it won't be that easy for us to escape easily."
"It's not that I'm counting on him... It's just that I came to Hell because of him, and I broke into the Life and Death Detention Center because of him." Tang Yuanyuan said, "So we are still in the same camp.
.”
"And no matter what happens in this situation, we are probably jointly and severally responsible. We are now grasshoppers on the same line. If possible, I hope we can all leave from here."
"So if there is an emergency or something unexpected happens, I still need your help to take him away with me. If he can't send us back to the world, then we will first evade pursuit and then find a way out together."
Tang Yuanyuan smiled helplessly, raised his hand and shook it at Zhen: "And he...maybe he can be considered my destined 'person' now, right?"
Zhen narrowed his eyes as he looked at the red line on her finger, and then was silent for a moment before asking again:
"Then do you know any contract magic circle?"
Why is it a contract again?
Listening to Zhen's somewhat inconsistent questions, Tang Yuanyuan frowned, but quickly answered truthfully: "No."
"Then I'll teach you something later." Zhen Hu's ears moved slightly and he lowered his voice and said, "It's simple and easy to use... a death contract that can never be broken."
"Why?" Tang Yuanyuan realized that Zhen had ulterior motives and asked, "What's the use of me learning the death contract?"
She has already made a contract with Tsui, and the risks and benefits these contracts bring to her are actually unknown, so for a while she doesn't want to make another contract with any strange guy.
"Don't say that." Tsumu raised his front paw and licked it, "It will always be used. Contracts actually have more uses than you think sometimes."
"The contract I'm going to give you is strong and easy to use... It can bind both parties, and you can also break some rules with the power of the contract, and it can even save someone's life at a critical moment..."
Then Zhen whispered a series of words in her ear. Although Tang Yuanyuan didn't follow what he said, he still paid attention and frowned to write it down, but there was always a strange premonition in his heart.
"But this contract has very strict conditions for its use."
"That is, both parties to the contract must have a strong 'fate'."
As soon as Tang Yuanyuan heard these words, she was caught off guard and suddenly jumped into the arms of No. 4, who turned around at some point. The moment her body lost weight, there was a loud roar in her ears.
