Chapter 211 The Red Yaksha's Past

In the lobby, Sun Xiaoshu also asked the same question, what does Balaizi mean?

"Our grandma was not born so evil." Nie Xiaoqian said calmly, "About five hundred years ago, there was a small-leaf red bean tree that absorbed the essence of mountains, rivers, sun and moon for thousands of years, and became an independent monster, which was our grandma. At that time, she didn't care about good and evil, but simply lived between the deep mountains and dense forests. For a long time, she also maintained the same lifestyle and was inseparable from the world. After the Qing army entered the pass, there were suddenly many monsters active north of the Great Wall in the Central Plains, especially the demon emperor Ge Duo, who was committed to expanding territory, so she searched for and cultivated monsters in the Central Plains. In the era of Pu Songling, Ge Duo met his grandma by chance and felt that there should be plant monsters among the demon kings as representatives, so she decided to give her a chance to be one of the four demon kings..."

Speaking of this, Sun Xiaoshu couldn't help but interrupt and said, "What? It turns out that our grandma was really not a demon? In this way, my father didn't lie to me, but why did she change so much later?"

Nie Xiaoqian said: "Don't worry, I have to explain all this, and it has a deep connection with you and me. Although my grandma was not a demon at that time, she had never felt the warmth of the world, and everything lived by instinct. Since she had the opportunity to gain a higher status and a more interesting life, her grandma accepted the conditions of Ge Duo and was willing to create more plant monsters for him. To express her determination, grandma first turned the remaining good thoughts in her heart into a branch, peeled it away, and then became a monster independently, and that was your father and grandson Chu."

Sun Xiaoshu seemed to have some realization: "So that's it. No wonder my father is very kind, although he is stupid by nature. His ability can keep the souls of dead people, give them a healthy body, and fulfill their last wishes. And my healing ability is also a kind of good ability."

Nie Xiaoqian said: "Yes, your father didn't have a name, and Pu Songling didn't know that he was the good root of his grandmother, so he wrote a story "Abao" based on his story. From then on, he had the name of "Sunzi Chu". However, in the world, many people call the good roots separated by plant monsters "Ba Laizi", because "Ba Lai" is the pronunciation of "Shani" in Sanskrit."

Finally got it.

Pu Zixuan, who was far away in the treetops, wondered in his heart: When Master Zhu Shihua introduced Sun Xiaoshu's ability to me, he only said that he was a little-leaf red bean that could cover up the power of purification, but never talked about his healing ability. I don't know if the master really doesn't know, or deliberately hide it from me, for fear that I would like to attack Sun Xiaoshu even more. No wonder Qin Yong wanted to get Sun Xiaoshu at all costs. Such magical abilities, no matter who gets him, will definitely be of great benefit to his career.

But I never deliberately made a decision on Sun Xiaoshu, but he chose to be our companion, which is really a blessing!

Most of the people in the lobby were surprised and happy to hear the origin of "Ba Laizi".

"Aunt, I finally figured out the matters of our family, so what about you?" Sun Xiaoshu was fascinated by the hearing, staring at Nie Xiaoqian blankly, unable to wait to get more information.

Nie Xiaoqian said: "If grandma wants to become a demon king, in addition to her own ability, she must also have her own sphere of influence. This requires a lot of monster subordinates as troops, or even army. One way is to become a 'Prajna' and command a wild monster without wisdom. If she becomes a demon king and obtains the 'Prajna crystal' granted by Ge Duo, she will have this ability and can copy the 'Prajna' ability to a third party."

At this point, Pu Zixuan, Chen Shuqing and Su Sanniang also understood that at the beginning, the demon king Hanba passed on the ability of Prajna to Qin Yong, which enabled him to have the ability to command the demons in the wild in the heart-breaking valley.

"And Prajna also comes from Sanskrit, meaning 'ultimate wisdom.'" Nie Xiaoqian continued to preach, "Since anyone who becomes a demon king will gain the ability of Prajna, grandma is not qualified to become a demon king, but grandma himself does not have the ability to demonize humans, so grandma separates another root, which is a charm, neither good nor evil, and it is me. Therefore, the most primitive tree demon grandma is divided into three, one is good and one is charm, and the remaining main part is pure 'evil'."

Hearing this, Pu Weihai couldn't help but curse: "You stinky banshee, since you are neither good nor evil, why do you do those consciences?"

Nie Xiaoqian whispered: "Because, as part of our grandma, if we have the intention of betraying our grandma, even if we are thousands of miles apart, our grandma can easily turn us into her roots again. At the beginning, after Yan Chixia killed her grandma, I thought I would be liberated from now on, but unexpectedly, before my grandma died, she planted a small-leaf red bean in the soil, took root and sprouted, and spread to the Qianyuanbao Pagoda. After more than a hundred years of recovery, she was reborn as a Red Yasha, and threatened me to provide her with the essence of the human body - the three corpses, and expand her troops... As for that time, I was also assigned by her to go to Lijiang to seize the secret book left by Pu Songling to help her recover... I was also helpless."

"Is helpless?" Pu Weihai's face burst out with blue veins and he said furiously, "Do you know that your helplessness caused the destruction of my family, and the world was separated. How many years have you suffered in the bone-broken pain? How many people have become innocent souls under the claws of the Red Yasha because of your helplessness...including our Jerome and Jenny..."

Nie Xiaoqian raised her voice and said, "I know, Pu Weihai, I know all of what you said! Yes, in the past, I was afraid of death and still had some affection for my grandma. I thought she needed these troops just to fight the old demon in Black Mountain and regain the position of the Demon King. After she fulfilled her wish, she would give me a freedom. At that time, I will lift the curse and let the shadow warriors recover their human body! How could I think that you would have so many human warriors who would have such a large-scale battle with the Red Yaksha before that day came?"

Pu Weihai took a step back in a daze, and said stutteringly: "What? You said, you were going to lift the curse sooner or later? Then... Then what I did will make this day far away? No... No, you are lying, you are winning our sympathy, and the purpose is just to let us let you go. Am I right?"

Nie Xiaoqian said firmly: "No, Pu Weihai, you may not have forgotten. Eighteen years ago, before I charmed you in your home, I told you that my goal is to take away the secret book. After the matter is done, I will restore you, because I have the minimum respect for Pu Songling, but I just make luck mess with people. I didn't expect that the foreigner suddenly appeared and disrupted all these plans! Now, I have realized that the sins I have committed should bear all the consequences. If you want to kill me and take revenge and lift the curse of the world, then come on!"

"Do you think I can't?" Pu Weihai raised his sword and pointed at Nie Xiaoqian, and said angrily, "I ordered Zhang Dahui to capture you alive, just to find out the whereabouts of Jerome and Jenny. Now that the truth is revealed, what's the use of keeping you?"

Seeing that Pu Weihai was about to stab Nie Xiaoqian to death, Sun Xiaoshu stopped him and said, "Uncle Pu, please don't kill my aunt. Can I ask my aunt to restore everything?"

"Recover? Humph, Recover, will those dead lives come alive? Will my wife, Jerome, and those countless unjust souls come alive?" Pu Weihai waved the sword in his hand and shouted to Sun Xiaoshu, "Get out of the way!"

Seeing that Pu Weihai's anger was getting stronger and stronger, it seemed that even Sun Xiaoshu would be killed in anger. Chen Shuqing hurriedly persuaded him: "Weihai, be calm first. As you said, even if you kill her, will those dead people come back to life?"

"Of course not, but at least, it can avenge those unjust souls and avenge Mengtao and Jerome!"

Seeing that the time had come, Chen Shuqing reminded: "Yes, you can avenge Jerome, but what about Jenny? Jenny is still alive. Now she is missing and has become the subordinate of Hong Yasha. If you kill Nie Xiaoqian, Jenny will be restored to the purifying messenger. At this time, she is still with Hong Yasha and is enemies of each other. How can she ensure her safety?"

A word woke up the dreamer, Pu Weihai hurriedly took back the spirit-removing sword: "Yes, I can't kill her now. I want to keep her and lead the Red Yasha out to help us find Jenny!"

Nie Xiaoqian sneered and said, "Chen Shuqing is right. Although I have taken life and death lightly, killing me is not the best choice. If you believe me, you can untie my acupoints and I will immediately restore everything, leaving only Jenny. When we find the Red Yasha, I will restore Jenny. I believe that there is no better arrangement than this!"

Seeing that Nie Xiaoqian had a glimmer of hope, Sun Xiaoshu hurriedly begged: "Uncle Pu, there is really no better arrangement than this. Please, let aunt have a way out!"

After pausing for a while, Pu Weihai finally threw the spirit-removing sword to the ground and said to Su Sanniang: "Unlock her acupoints."

Su Sanniang smiled slightly, walked forward, tapped Nie Xiaoqian three times, and untie her acupoints.

Nie Xiaoqian regained her freedom, relaxed her muscles and bones, and said to everyone: "Thank you for your trust, Xiaoqian, this will lift the curse."

Pu Zixuan in the distance was beating his heart, wishing that the curse would be lifted immediately, and he could fly into the lobby without distraction and give a deep hug to his father.

Nie Xiaoqian sat cross-legged on the ground, her hands folded, her body shining red, and she muttered something in her mouth.

However, the situation was not as smooth as everyone imagined. Nie Xiaoqian, who had originally cast a spell safely, suddenly widened her eyes and said in shock: "No, I am powerless to lift the curse!"

"What's going on?" everyone exclaimed.

"Hong Yasha no longer trusts me and has already taken back the liberation technique. Everyone, I dare not deceive you. Hong Yasha has already taken back the liberation technique of curse removal. Now, only she herself can lift the curse!"

Sun Xiaoshu held Nie Xiaoqian's hand tightly and said, "Aunt, please, don't lie to everyone!"

Nie Xiaoqian said in panic: "What's the use of deceiving you now? That way, wouldn't you seek death for yourself?"

Pu Weihai's mood was unstable again and shouted: "Ning Wanqiu, tie this banshee to me and wait for the death to come!"
