Chapter 118 Ghost Bird

As soon as Guan Hu's words fell, Chu Zhou opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise, "Can't stay away from here...what do you mean?"

"I just can't leave here for a long time," Guan Hu looked at Chu Zhou strangely, wondering why Chu Zhou, who is part of the Chu family, didn't know this, but then he remembered that Chu Zhou lived in a remote small courtyard since he was a child, It is understandable not to know, so he flicked his tail and said, "I don't know the details, it seems that there is some special spell, if you leave the Chu family without permission, you will die suddenly. "

That's why the master would rather sacrifice himself than escape with him...

Chu Zhou was even more unbelievable when he heard his explanation. It sounds like he was imprisoned here. He hesitated and asked, "Then...is everyone not allowed to leave?"

Guan Hu shook his head, and said, "I don't know about the Chu family and the onmyojis who joined the Chu family." He paused, and then added, "This is what the previous master told me. It is said that it is to prevent Onmyoji from defecting or joining other hostile families, but I don’t know if it is still the case... Maybe it has changed."

Chu Zhou didn't speak any more, but he was still a little worried. If he couldn't leave here... and Gu Huo was also considered to be an onmyoji who joined the Chu family. What if he was also subjected to some kind of spell?

He kept recalling whether he had heard similar things before, but he didn't think of even a little bit of relevant news for a long time, so he had no choice but to give up.

When he pressed it to the bottom of his heart and was about to wait for Gu Huo to come back and ask her about it, the pentagram formation he had seen before inexplicably flashed across his mind, and he felt a little strange suddenly.

Just when Chu Zhou wanted to connect the pentagram array with the mysterious spell, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. His heart moved, he let go of his thoughts, walked over to open the door, and saw standing in the yard. It really was Gu Huo who went out not long ago.

He came back so soon, he thought it would be a long time.

Chu Zhou subconsciously looked up at the sky and realized that it was already afternoon, so Gu Huo had actually been gone for several hours.

Just as Chu Zhou was thinking, he felt his body suddenly rise into the air, and his eyes also raised up. When he came back to his senses, he found that he was being hugged by Gu Huo and sitting on the other's arm.

Chu Zhou: "..."

He subconsciously put his arms around the other's neck, moved awkwardly, and wanted to get out of the other's arms.

Gu Huo held him down and said softly, "Don't move around." When he went out, he saw that this is how human fathers and sons get along with each other.

Chu Zhou was held down, sat on the opponent's arm, and was led in. When he saw Guanhu's mocking eyes, he was extremely ashamed, and even blushed on his face.

He's not really a kid, it's really weird...

It's just that Guan Hu actually thought that Chu Zhou always looked like an adult, and now he finally looked like a child.When he saw the two people coming in, he greeted them, and got into the bamboo tube to catch up on sleep.

Gu Huo sat on the bed, put Chu Zhou on his lap, and glanced at Chu Zhou when Chu Zhou kept thumping about. Seeing that the other party was obediently still, he smiled with satisfaction and asked softly, "What were you doing just now?"

Chu Zhou didn't know why Gu Huo suddenly became overwhelmed with fatherly love, as if he really regarded him as a son, and buried him in the other's chest depressedly, unconsciously grabbing the other's long hair in his hands, and when he heard the other party speak, he suddenly raised his head. At the beginning, I couldn't wait to express all my doubts just now.

Gu Huo frowned first, and rescued his painfully pulled hair from Chu Zhou's hands, and said thoughtfully: "I seem to have heard about this..."

He was referring to the fact that the Chu family could not stay away from the Chu family. He vaguely remembered that Chu Zhou's father seemed to have mentioned this, otherwise, they might have eloped long ago.

Chu Zhou was a little disappointed, "Don't you know?"

Gu Huo raised his hand and rubbed the top of his hair, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I will inquire when I have a chance."

"That's right!" Chu Zhou wanted to nod at first, but suddenly thought of something, opened his eyes and looked at Gu Huo brightly, and said, "When I went out before, I saw a pentagram-shaped array in other yards." Fa, do you know what that is?"

"Pentagram?" Gu Huo was stunned for a moment, and repeated it again. Seeing Chu Zhou nodding repeatedly, he frowned slightly, searching for relevant information in his complicated memory. After a while, a complicated look flashed across his eyes. , said slowly, "If it is really that formation, then the rumor just now may be true..."

Chu Zhou looked at him in surprise, and asked, "Why? Is there anything special about that formation?"

Gu Huo nodded, and said slowly: "As far as I know, there are only two formations containing pentagrams. One is the summoning formation, which summons some legendary monsters." He looked at Chu Zhou with a soft face, "But according to what you said, those onmyojis have all entered the formation, so it can't be a summoning formation."

Chu Zhou stared at him without blinking and asked, "What about the other one?"

"The other is to gather the essence of heaven and earth, and send all the collected vitality to the life in the formation."

Chu Zhou blinked blankly, a little puzzled, "Does this have anything to do with not being able to leave here?" Moreover, this formation sounds even very beneficial to people.

Gu Huo said in a low voice: "But this formation, called the puppet formation, originally only created life for the lifeless puppets so that they could move freely. Moreover, the puppets created by this formation will die every once in a while. You must enter the formation to replenish your vitality."

Chu Zhou looked at him in astonishment, and murmured: "Puppet...?" He asked in disbelief, "Could it be that the people I saw today are all lifeless puppets?"

Gu Huo thought for a while, and comforted him: "No."

"Ah?" Chu Zhou was even more puzzled. Didn't he say that this formation was created for puppets? Why are those people not puppets?

"The onmyojis who went out with me today are all real human beings." Gu Huo guessed, "I think they should have extracted the vitality of the onmyojis in some way, and then transmitted the vitality to these onmyojis through formations Master, in this case, these onmyojis will become puppets in a certain sense, and have to enter the formation to replenish their vitality every once in a while."

If it is a puppet, he does not know that he is a puppet, and he only thinks that he is improving his strength when replenishing vitality.And because a little vitality will be leaked when the formation is activated, the surrounding life will be more vigorous where there is a formation. For example, the trees that should have fallen leaves are still in flowering period...

Chu Zhou bit his lip when he heard Gu Huo's analysis, if this is really the case...

Knowing Chu Zhou's worry, Gu Huo stroked his hair and comforted him, "Don't worry, I will definitely take you out of here."

"As for me, I haven't lost my vitality now. If it's really what I guess... there must be a way to avoid it."

Chu Zhou nodded hesitantly. Gu Huo is the most powerful monster, and there must be nothing that can stop him.

Seeing him nodding, Gu Huo gave a soft smile on his face.

Chu Zhou thought of something at this moment, and asked curiously: "You went out to catch the monster today... did you really catch the monster?"

Gu Huo shook his head with a smile and said, "Of course not."

Think about it too, although Gu Huo wants to pretend to be an onmyoji, but he is also a monster after all, how can he help humans catch monsters?

Chu Zhou thought about it, and asked again: "Then the other onmyojis didn't bully you, did they?" He remembered the young man he met before, and it seemed that other people misunderstood them...

Gu Huo originally wanted to shake his head to deny it, but suddenly thought of something, and abruptly changed his half-way shaking into a nod, and said in a deep voice, "Yes."

Chu Zhou didn't expect this answer, and looked at Gu Huo in surprise. Seeing that the other party's expressionless face seemed to be aggrieved, he didn't have time to ask carefully, and leaned over to "tweet" for a while, and put his short arms around the other party. He comforted him with poor words: "Then...they are all big villains, you should ignore them...or, maybe you can bully them back..."

Although he really couldn't imagine how a group of humans who couldn't beat Guhuo at all could bully Guhuo...

Although Gu Huo didn't know what Chu Zhou was thinking about, but being so childishly comforted by the other party, he felt a little weak in his heart, and smiled softly: "Well, bully back."

But a group of very weak onmyoji, it is impossible to bully him.

Chu Zhou nestled in Gu Huodi's arms, curious about the other party's experience of going out to catch monsters, so he asked in a low voice. Of course, what he wanted to know most was how the other party was bullied...

Gu Huo didn't know what Chu Zhou was thinking. When he heard Chu Zhou's curious question, he put his arms around him and spoke in a low voice.

On the way to the outside of the city with several onmyojis, Gu Huo found that other people were somewhat repulsive to him. But at that time, he saw a father and son on the street getting along happily, so he thought of the relationship with Chu Zhou when he came back. Interactive, so don't care what other people think.

The other onmyojis were even angrier when they saw that he didn't care about their neglect at all.

Among them is an older onmyoji who has no talent for learning onmyoji. After struggling for a long time, he finally got such a chance to go out. Therefore, seeing Gu Huo being valued so easily, he felt very jealous .

He secretly recruited the rest of the onmyojis, discussing how to give Gu Huo a blow, but fortunately, the others were also very displeased with Gu Huo, and they hit it off immediately, and soon decided to assign the task of catching monsters to Gu Huo.

What they were thinking was that if Guhuo was lucky enough to catch the monster, then they would take the credit for it. If Guhuo really couldn't catch the monster, then after they went back, they would put all the responsibility on him. That way, Gu Huo must not be taken seriously.

Gu Huo was so obviously targeted, so he naturally understood their strategy.

When they went out of the city, when those onmyojis assigned him to catch the monster, luckily he followed his plan and actually caught a monster and came back.

The older onmyoji's eyes turned red when he saw the monster. He didn't expect that Gu Huo could really catch the monster. After a pause, he snatched the monster away and kept saying that he caught it.

The rest of the onmyojis don't care about Gu Huo at all. In their eyes, Gu Huo is definitely not very strong at such a young age. He must have met this monster because of his luck. According to their rules, whoever Whoever gets the credit for catching the monster.

Gu Huo stood indifferently and watched the group of people blushing, waiting with a half-smile.

In the end, it was the older Onmyoji who got the ownership of the monster.Although his talent is not very high, but he is older than others, and he has been practicing Yin Yang Art for a longer time than others, so his strength can naturally be a little higher.

After deciding who deserves the credit for catching the monster, they are ready to go home.

The onmyoji took the monster with him, as if he really caught the monster, and gave Gu Huo a disdainful look, as if he was showing off something.

Gu Huo couldn't be angry with this kind of person at all, he just thought it was funny, when they were about to walk out of the forest and enter the city gate, he quietly cast a magic spell and let the monster go away.

No one noticed his movements.

The originally harmonious group of people started to quarrel, and the others complained that the Onmyoji didn't take good care of the monsters, and felt that the monsters caught with great difficulty were just let go, and the other party must have done it on purpose.

Onmyoji, on the other hand, couldn't argue with anything, he himself didn't know why the monster he caught well would run away suddenly, and in the end he could only bear the complaints of others, and walked back with his head down along the way...

"..." Chu Zhou finally realized why the other party came back earlier than he thought. He was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "Where did they bully you..." Obviously it was Gu Huo who bullied them.

Gu Huo glanced at him, and said in a low voice, "No one dared to order me before." Moreover, if he didn't want to maintain a false appearance and avoid being found out, he would never use such a boring method...

Chu Zhou also thought of this, maybe this really wronged Gu Huo, he leaned up to touch the other's cheek, and comforted: "It will be fine when we leave."

When Gu Huo heard his grown-up tone, he couldn't help but smile, and said softly, "Yes."

After eating, Chu Zhou was thinking about the formation mentioned earlier, so he ran outside to see if there was a chance to inquire about relevant information.

Coincidentally, not long after he went out, someone stopped him when he passed a yard. He turned around and saw that it was the enthusiastic kid in the morning.

The little boy's name is Chu Chuan, he is from a collateral lineage, and he is considered extremely talented, so he can enter the family center to learn Yin Yang.

It's just that the other people in the courtyard where he lives know each other and usually don't take him to play, so he is always alone, so when he sees Chu Zhou who is also alone, he is very excited and feels that he has a new friend.

When he saw Chu Zhou, he hurried over, patted Chu Zhou enthusiastically, and said loudly, "You're here again!"

Seeing that the other party was so enthusiastic, Chu Zhou couldn't help taking a step back. He just looked in the direction the other party came from, and happened to see the pentagram among the flowers. He suddenly had a thought and started talking to the other party.

The child was very easy to coax, and after a while, he knew the effect of the formation from the opponent's mouth, and he was ready to go back with a heavy heart.

——According to Chu Chuan, this pentagram array is opened once a month, and everyone must enter, and are not allowed to leave without authorization.And because every time the formation is over, they can feel that their Yin-Yang skills seem to have improved a little, so in their view, this mandatory formation that must be accepted is used to improve their Yin-Yang skills.

And because of this reason, every time the formation is activated, they rush to occupy the most central position, because the closer they are to the center, the more their strength will improve.

These all overlap with the puppets mentioned by Gu Huo...

Chu Zhou was silent and prepared to go back and tell Gu Huo. He turned around and walked in the direction he came from, and heard the crisp voice of a child behind him.

"You also want to find me to play in the future!"

He turned around and smiled, "Okay."

After Chu Zhou went back, he told Gu Huo what he had found out, and he was quite worried, "In my case, I probably didn't become a puppet, but if the patriarch wants to find you, how about trying to turn you into a puppet?" What to do?" According to the fact that all the powerful people here are using this formation, Gu Huo's strength is so strong, how could the patriarch let him go?

Gu Huo's voice was low, but her tone was not heavy, but rather soft, "Don't worry."

With his strength, his vitality would not be easily drained.

Chu Zhou didn't know how many times he was worried today, he said a little depressed: "Okay." In short, I still have to trust Gu Huo.

Gu Huo smiled lowly, hugged him and lay down, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

Chu Zhou slowly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

The moonlight is light, the flower branches outside the window sway with the wind, the moonlight shines along the window and shines on the quiet room.

Looking at Chu Zhou's peaceful sleeping face, Gu Huo couldn't help but a smile appeared on his face. He leaned over and touched the other's forehead lightly with his lips, and finally closed his eyes, feeling a little weak in his heart.

This is what it's like to be a father...

A few days passed peacefully.

In the past few days, except that Chu Zhou felt that Gu Huo was becoming more and more enthusiastic about the so-called father-son interaction, nothing else happened.

Not only did the patriarch not propose any strange things to take the opportunity to extract vitality, but he didn't even arrange for Gu Huo to do anything, so that Gu Huo could only stay with him, guessing what the patriarch was thinking.

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

In the past few days, when Chu Zhou occasionally went out, he saw other people looking very serious, all of them were concentrating on practicing Yin Yang, as if they were waiting for something.

And on this day, just as Chu Zhou woke up, he heard someone come to convey the news of the patriarch.

——The patriarch has something to discuss.

Chu Zhou woke up in an instant, looked at Gu Huo, and thought, is it finally coming?

He was inexplicably nervous, or rather agitated, and couldn't calm down. He sat in Gu Huo's arms—he was very used to such behavior these days—and went to meet the patriarch together.

The patriarch was still smiling, seeing Gu Huo hugging Chu Zhou, his expression didn't change, and he said kindly, "I want you to help us get rid of a monster."

Gu Huo nodded and said, "What monster?"

"Ghost bird."

"Drop blood to bring disasters, capture people's soul energy, and take people's children."

The patriarch was still smiling, "Such a vicious monster, I hope you can kill him."
