Chapter 206: Ji Yaozi's mother

Jiang Luo quickly went through the information.

Ji Yaozi's life was ordinary; he was born in the countryside to a peasant woman. His mother drowned when he was three years old, leaving Ji Yaozi with no one else in his family except his mother, who died, leaving him an orphan. He was sent by the village people to the county orphanage, where Ji Yaozi stayed until he was five years old.

After the age of five, Ji Yaozi was taken under the tutelage of a Taoist priest, and when he reappeared, Ji Yaozi was the owner of a funeral parlor.

Ji Yaozi did not go to school, and there is very little information available. But just from the available information, I really don't find anything wrong.

But Ji Yaozi knew Feng Li and knew a lot of things about the Predestined One, and had a very close relationship with the Predestined One and Taoist Master Wei He.

He also knew all about the predestined man's prophecies, and even knew the predestined man's character so well that he doubted the predestined man's prophecies.

Every detail proves that Ji Yaozi is a man of deep secrets. But what makes Jiang Luo even more concerned is that the day Chi You stormed into the Lian family, all the Lian family members were taken back by him, so why were the Fated Man and Ji Yaozi the only ones who disappeared?

How did Ji Yaozi escape? Did he join the Fated Man?

Jiang Luo's mind is full of doubts.

In retrospect, Jiang Luo realized something else. Ji Yaozi was so confident in his own equipment that he said that no one would ever be able to see through the secret of the Soul Pendant, and Jiang Luo believed him. Jiang Luo believed in this, but the Fated Man saw through it, and he saw through it, but did not say anything about it, and deliberately let Jiang Luo use the Soul Pendant to see his inner view.

Jiang Luo had previously only thought that it was because the predestined person was too strong and realized that something was wrong. But thinking differently, the Fated One might not have seen through the disguise of the Soul Pendant. But he knew Ji Yaozi, and thus knew the instruments Ji Yaozi had refined.

Jiang Luo put down the information, carelessly touching the yin and yang ring on his hand.

The Yin Yang ring that the Fated Man refined, Ji Yaozi can also refine it again ...... He and the Fated Man, there must be a relationship that Jiang Luo has not yet understood.

"He went back to the funeral store?" Jiang Luo thought for a moment, "I'll go meet him later."

Ye Xun interjected, "I'll go back with you."

He stroked Xiao Fen's long rabbit ears lovingly, "It's time for Xiao Fen to be repaired by Kuang Zheng."

"Good," Jiang Luo smiled and looked to the others, "Do you guys have any thoughts about the 'vegetable woman' line Black said last night?"

Ge Zhu murmured, "All I can think of is the story of Bi Gan digging out his heart in the God Seal."

Zhuo Zhongqiu smiled, "Coincidentally, I thought of this story too."

In Feng Shen Ban (封神榜), Jiang Zi Ya (姜子牙) divined that Bi Gan would have his heart ripped out, so he cast a spell on Bi Gan in advance to ensure that Bi Gan would not die after having his heart ripped out, and explained to Bi Gan that he should go home quickly on horseback, and not to talk to anyone along the way.

Bi Gan was on his way home when he met an old woman selling hollowed-out vegetables. Bi Gan, curious in mind, thought of how he, too, had no more heart, and asked, "How is a man if he has no heart?"

The old woman returned, "If a man has no heart he will die."

Bi Gan was shocked after hearing this, and immediately remembered Jiang Ziya's advice, but it was too late, he felt a twinge of pain in his chest and abdomen, and immediately fell off his horse and died.

Hei Wuchang's first reaction to the story was to say, "When you meet a woman with vegetables, don't talk to her".

Jiang Luo also thought of this story, but the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it instead, and he couldn't decide what Hei Wuchang's words were implying, "If it's really the story of Bi Gan digging out his heart, what is Hei implying? Is he telling us that the predestined man is not a true god, and that once the predestined man realizes the fact that he is a human being, he will die immediately? Or is it that the main point of the predestined man is to cut out his heart?"

The crowd pondered, and Wen Renlian said, "There is another saying in what Bi Gan asked the vegetable seller woman, if the vegetable seller woman answered 'one can still live without a heart', then Bi Gan can also live. Does this mean that if a predestined person wants to become a god, he also needs to ask the bystanders if he can become a true god like Fox Feng Zheng did?"

"Maybe it's implying that it was an old woman who killed the Fated Man?" Lu Youyi brainstorms.

Zhu Ge sighed, "That old woman was changed by a demon."

Jiang Luo accidentally thought too much.

The old woman who changed into a demon killed Bi Gan, is this implying that only Chi You, who can possess others and manipulate them, could manipulate the puppet to kill the Nemesis?

Three ignorant cobblers add up to a genius, and they were more than three, and in just a few moments, all kinds of possibilities were stated, each one of them making a strong and reasonable point. Jiang Luo was dizzy from listening, and was getting more and more confused about what Hei Wuchang's hints meant. He simply asked Sai Liaoer, "What do you think Hei Wuchang's hint means?"

Sai Liaoer holds her face red, "I have no memories of getting along with Hei Wuchang ......"

"It's okay," Jiang Luo whispered softly, "Sai Liaoer, think with your feelings, don't let us lead you astray, use your intuition to feel what Hei Wuchang means."

Sai Liaoer felt it seriously and said periodically, "I think ...... I think he means the simplest one."

Jiang Luo asked, "A predestined person without a heart must die?"

Sai Liaoer nodded apologetically. For some reason, Sai Liaoer always felt that Hei Wuchang would tell Sai Liaoer all the complicated words in the simplest way because he did not understand Chinese. At least after Sai Liaoer heard the story of Bi Gan digging out his heart, he only understood the most superficial layer of the story, and naturally interpreted it to mean that a predestined person without a heart will surely die.

Jiang Luo nodded slowly, thoughtfully, "I see."

Maybe Hei Wuchang really doesn't mean that much.

Predestined people are false gods.

Many people have told Jiang Luo that the Fated Man is not a god.

Before becoming a god, a predestined person is also a human being.

"How is a man if he has no heart?"

"If a man has no heart he will die."

Predestined people die without their hearts.

But will it really be that simple?

Jiang Luo couldn't figure it out, so he put it down for the time being.

In the afternoon, he and Ye Xun returned to Birch University.

Ye Xun went to the Alchemist to find Kuang Zheng, while Jiang Luo went to the funeral store near Birch University.

Wreath after wreath was piled up in front of the funeral parlor, and the door was half-open. Jiang Luo pushed his way in and saw Ji Yaozi cleaning the wooden shelves with a basin of water.

The weather is not too cold but not too hot, very pleasant. But Ji Yaozi's body was wrapped in a thick coat, he heard the sound and turned around, after seeing Jiang Luo, he smiled before he spoke, "Yo, why are you here."

Jiang Luo circled around him twice, "Are you hurt?"

Ji Yaozi wondered, "What injuries did I sustain?"

Jiang Luo looked at him strangely, Ji Yaozi looked back in confusion. Jiang Luo suddenly said, "Something happened to the Lian family."

Ji Yaozi was so frantic that the rag in his hand fell to the floor, "What happened to the Lian family?!"

The more disbelieving he became, the tighter Jiang Luo's brows furrowed, "You don't know? That day when I went up the mountain to look for the Fated Man, it was you and Taoist Master Wei He who brought me there."

Ji Yaozi was somewhat in a trance, "I know, but I saw you go in and then leave with Taoist Wei He. I went to my room to catch up on my sleep, and after I woke up from a nap, I was taken down the mountain by the Fated Man ...... After I left, something happened to the Lian family?"

Jiang Luo asked instead of answering, "Where did the Fated One take you?"

Ji Yaozi hesitated for a moment, looked around, and lowered his voice, "Changbai Mountain."

So the Nemesis, after being beaten by Chi You and running away, doesn't forget to take Ji Yaozi and return to Changbai Mountain together?

Jiang Luo looked at Ji Yaozi strangely up and down, and Ji Yaozi's heart fluttered, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Jiang Luo said, "You really don't know anything about what happened on the mountain?"

Ji Yaozi shook his head, hating to break his brain open for him, "I really don't know!"

"You come with me," Ji Yaozi put down what he was holding and led Jiang Luo into a closed hut, "What happened on the mountain?"

Jiang Luo didn't rush, "First you say why the predestined person is taking you."

Ji Yaozi said, "I don't know what he wants."

Jiang Luo looked at him steadily for a few seconds, "Taoist Master Wei He was left behind, and so were those juniors of Lian's family who were treated as style gods by the Fated Man, but you were the only one taken away. I didn't realize how close you were to the Fated Man when we were in the mountains, so how come when it came to the time of crisis, he just took you with him?"

Ji Yaozi catches the point and asks, "Crisis point? What crisis point?"

Jiang Luo seemed to have not heard Ji Yaozi's question and continued, "Earlier I asked you why the Predestined Man gave you the Primordial Heavenly Pearl, and you didn't tell me why. You also have a good relationship with Feng Li, who is the son of the Predestined Man ......"

He gave a slow, thoughtful look.

Ji Yaozi's heart thumped, and a bead of sweat instantly broke out on his forehead, he always felt that Jiang Luo was about to guess. Ji Yaozi made a ruthless decision, and took a step forward, revealing the secret he had not intended to tell, "Because I am also the son of a predestined person."

Jiang Luo: "......"

He was eerily silent.

When Ji Yaozi saw that he didn't say anything, he was a bit proud of himself while being nervous. He was confident that Jiang Luo had never guessed his relationship with the Fated One. Ji Yaozi had been fooled by Jiang Luo so many times, and it was not easy for him to gain the upper hand once, if it was not for the sake of stabilizing his position as an elder, I am afraid that he would be grinning from ear to ear.

After a long time, Jiang Luo slowly said, "Old Ji, you're already in your forties."

The question is a polite one. Jiang Luo, who has just finished reading Ji Yaozi's profile, of course already knows how old Ji Yaozi is. Born forty-seven years ago, Ji Yaozi is seventeen years older than Feng Li, who is now just over thirty.

Ji Yaozi and the Fated Man stand together, and if we had to say that they are father and son, then definitely 9.9% of the people would see Ji Yaozi as the father of the Fated Man.

Ji Yaozi heard his meaningfulness, and his face was blue, "You kid, really ......" enough damage.

Jiang Luo was actually taken aback.

The fact that Feng Li was the son of the Fateful Man was shocking enough, but he did not realize that the Fateful Man had another son. The image of the Fated One as a pure and noble man was completely distorted and collapsed in Jiang Luo's mind. He could not understand why the Fated One would have two sons if he did not have the desires of the common people.

Do you have to be so pretentious to become a god?

Jiang Luo will never understand the idea of a fatalist.

He enjoyed the sensation of making love to the evil spirits as they tore into each other, the shuddering sensation that penetrated from the flesh and bones to the soul level, and once he recalled it, it gave Jiang Luo a somewhat addictive thrill.

Jiang Luo snapped back to his senses, he coughed gently, his throat tickling, it was hard to imagine that he could even associate Chi You with him at a time like this ...... He was in this state really like, thinking about men.

After suppressing his shock that Ji Yaozi was the son of the Fated Man, Jiang Luo asked in another way, "Has the Fated Man become weak?"

Ji Yaozi saw how quickly he calmed down after being shocked for only a moment, so she couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and couldn't raise her spirits to answer, "I don't know. I don't know. When I arrived at Changbai Mountain, he threw me aside, and I haven't seen him for a few days. It was so cold that day on Changbai Mountain that I almost didn't freeze to death, and the Fated Man didn't give me a single piece of clothing or quilt, so I still haven't gotten over the freezing temperatures to this day. But he took me away from Changbai Mountain a week ago, and I don't know where he is now."

Speaking of which, Ji Yaozi remembered what he had asked earlier, "What exactly happened to the Lian family that you said happened?"

Jiang Luo smiled faintly, "It's all right now."

Ji Yaozi looked at him like this and knew that he didn't want to talk about it. Ji Yaozi was not a person who pursued the root of the matter, he stopped asking further questions, "You came to me today to ask about the Fated Man?"

Jiang Luo nodded, "Now that you've finished, it's time for me to go. Old Ji, if you have any other news about the Fated Man, just let me know."

After speaking, Jiang Luo was ready to leave. Ji Yaozi walks him to the door. Jiang Luo walks a few steps out of the funeral parlor and suddenly turns around and asks, "Ji Yaozi, what was your mother's name?"

Ji Yaozi said in a puzzled manner, "Why do you ask? Her name is Zhao Zhirong."

"To be able to give birth to a refining genius like you, she must be a very impressive person, right?"

Ji Yaozi lost his smile, "You think too highly of my mother, she's just an ordinary woman in the countryside ......"

His words ended abruptly.

If it was just an ordinary woman, how was she able to co-pregnant a child with a predestined person?

Ji Yaozi's expression changed, when he came back to his senses, Jiang Luo had already left.

Is Jiang Luo reminding him of something ......

Ji Yaozi expression grave, he made a snap decision to close the store door, booked a train ticket back home and left in a hurry.
