Guardian of the Spirit

Ran Xun's prophecy for Jiang Yuan was not free.

Ran Xun told Jiang Yuan about the existence of the curse and figured out how to remove the curse. In exchange, Jiang Yuan would protect his people for Ran Xun.

Fair dealing.

"My people depend on you."

Ran Xun sighed.

"Are you going to die?"

Jiang Yuan clutched his feathers tightly and looked at Ran Xun who seemed to be giving his last words.

"Yes, he has lived for more than one hundred and fifty years. For the companion spirit tribe, he has lived too long and deserves to die."

Facing death, Ran Xun seemed very indifferent.

Ran Xun is a person with superpowers and a companion spirit. His superpower attainments are no worse than those of superpower elves, so he can have a premonition of his own end.

If a person with superpowers calculates that something beyond his or her tolerance range, his or her life span will be shortened.

When the companion spirit tribe borrows the power of elves, their body organs will fail at an accelerated rate, and their lifespan will also be shortened.

The two overlapped, the death buff was fully stacked, and Ran Xun was buried before the age of fifty, which is not bad.

Living for more than 150 years is indeed a long time.

"Is it going to be destroyed?"

The place Jiang Yuan mentioned refers to the place where the Ranxun people live.

"meeting."

Ran Xun said,

Ranxun has the ability to calculate and predict many things in the future, which is comparable to that of a super-powered elf.

However, there will be gains and losses. He can calculate it, but it is difficult to change these established futures.

He knew what would happen in the future and that his tribe would be in danger, but Ke Ranxun could not do anything. He could not inform his tribe and could only turn to those who had the ability to change.

If Ranxun directly informed his people to flee and avoided this disaster, there would be another disaster to replace the previous disaster.

Certain disasters are inevitable.

The King of Hell tells you to die at the third watch, but who dares to keep someone alive until the fifth watch? No matter how you change, what is supposed to come will still come back.

"Then where will your tribe be placed?"

Jiang Yuan asked.

If the place where you live is destroyed, you have to find a new place to live.

The Banling tribe is basically in a state of seclusion, with very little contact with the outside world. They cannot just find a place to live, lest their identity as a Banling tribe be exposed.

However, there are many people with evil intentions who are eyeing the Companion Spirit Clan.

In the eyes of these people, the research value of the companion spirit tribe is similar to that of superpowers.

These people thought that if they captured a Companion Spirit Tribe and went back to study it, they might be able to gain insight into the mystery of how the Companion Spirit Tribe borrowed the power of elves, so that they could also borrow the power of elves.

Therefore, the companion spirit tribe cannot appear in front of outsiders at will.

Of course, except for freaks like Tiersula and Ji Lingxi.

Even if their identities are exposed, they are not afraid.

Tiersura can borrow the power of elves without any side effects, and can be treated as an elf.

Ji Lingxi herself is a humanoid elf, and she has Gardevoir to protect her. Who can defeat them?

Ran Xun could predict the disaster for his people, but Jiang Yuan didn't believe that he didn't have any preparations. He should have found a good and safe place long ago.

"You'll know then."

Revealing too much about the future at once would cause serious backlash, so Ran Xun could only be vague about it to prevent himself from dying suddenly on the bridge.

Knowing that Ran Xun couldn't tell the exact place, Jiang Yuan didn't force it.

"By the way, where did the curse come from? Have you figured it out? Last time I asked you, you said you should be able to figure it out next time we meet."

"I've calculated a little bit, but I can't say."

Jiang Yuan: "..."

After explaining all his last words, Ran Xun and his companion, the natural bird, left the arch bridge.

The deadline is approaching, and Ran Xun wants to find a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters as a tomb to bury himself.

Jiang Yuan left the park. On the way, Hua Beibei saw Jiang Yuan lowering his head, seeming to be thinking about something, so she poked Jiang Yuan's head gently.

"Hello."

What's wrong?

"nothing."

Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "Just when Ranxun was talking about the remaining catastrophes, a vague picture flashed through my mind. I may have seen the catastrophes he mentioned."

"Could it be a scene from the future released by the Bronze Mirror Monster?"

Latios reminded.

In the space created by Celebi, Jiang Yuan saw the future through Bonisyana's Bronze Mirror Monster.

However, before returning to the real world, Jiang Yuan abided by his agreement with Bonissayana and cleared the future scenes he had seen.

"That should be it. I vaguely remember that an elf attacked me."

Jiang Yuan tugged at his hair.

Yaoshou, with no memory, he really couldn't remember what he saw at that time.

If he knew, he could take precautions in advance to avoid being at a loss when disaster strikes.

"One elf can become a disaster, right? It's not like it's being attacked by god-level elves like Dialga and Palkia."

Latios didn't understand.

Even if he was attacked by a god-level elf, wouldn't he still have red meteorites and Celebi to save his life?

Celebi, the god of survival, is in hand, so don’t panic.

"I can't think of it, I don't think about it anymore, it's a waste of brain cells."

Jiang Yuan dismissed the messy thoughts in his mind and continued to look for people with the Dark Stone.

One day, two days, three days, several days later, the Dark Stone never responded.

Jiang Yuan was not looking for anyone and there was no good news, but there was good news from Mashado.

…

Hazy Moon Island.

[I know why the curse aura on Jiang Lin’s body disappeared.]

Ma Shaduo patted the coffee table, always excited.

"explain."

Jiang Yuan took a sip of water.

【Because of the slate!】

Machado affirmed.

"Huh? Slate?"

Jiang Yuan's black question mark face.

What does this have to do with slate?

[Hold it and activate the power of the stone slab.]

Mashaduo threw the grass-type slate to Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan did as he was told, releasing his super power to activate the grass-type slate.

[Okay, now, you ghost elves can feel it. 】

Mashado said to the elves.

The crystal lantern spirit circled around Jiang Yuan, sniffing Jiang Yuan's scent like a dog.

Mimikyu jumped onto Jiang Yuan's other shoulder and felt Jiang Yuan's breath up close.

Five elves, namely the Death Coffin, the Potted Rotted Wood Demon, the Snow Demon Girl, Chubby Dudu, and the Demonic Coral, circled Jiang Yuan, looking for the cursed aura.

After observing it for a while, the crystal lantern Huo Ling felt nothing.

The crystal lantern fire spirit has been following Jiang Yuan for the longest time, and he can't detect any curse at all. He is about the same height as a parent looking at his child.

The child has obviously grown a lot taller by their side, but the parents just don't feel it. When outsiders tell them, they suddenly realize that their child has grown taller.

The authorities are obsessed with it.

Mimikyu shook his head, not noticing any difference.

Following the Crystal Lantern Spirit and Mimikyu, Death's Coffin, Rottenwood Demon, Snow Demon Girl, and Chubby all shook their heads.

No feeling.

Demon Coral, who specializes in curses, saw something.

Demon Coral raises the coral branch.

After stimulating the power of the grass-type slate, it does have a little bit more of a curse.

This curse breath is very weak. If you didn't know there was a curse and pay attention in advance, it would definitely not be noticed.

[You have seen few curses, and you are not specialized in curses, so you didn’t notice it. My disciple is more powerful. He can detect this curse without being at the demigod level.]

Marshado first crossed a wave of his apprentice, the demon coral, and then explained.

[This is a curse cast by the power of the slate, so when Jiang Yuan comes into contact with the power of the slate, the power of the slate will trigger the curse of the same source, exposing the well-hidden curse. Do you understand? 】

"I have been in contact with the slate, so you and Meloetta can sense the breath of the curse. Jiang Lin only occasionally borrows the slate. She has little contact with it, so you didn't feel the curse in the past few nights."

Jiang Yuan instantly understood what Mashado meant.

【Yes.】

Machado nodded.

After finding out the reason, Mashado immediately called Jiang Lin to do the experiment.

After the experiment, it turned out that, as Machado had guessed, only exposure to the power of the stone would trigger the curse.

After finding the reason, Mashado drove away the tool man Jiang Lin and continued to study how to solve the curse.

First, try each stone slab. If there is a response, it means that it has the attributes involved in the curse. Later, when looking for ways to break the curse, only use the attributes that have the response to study.

…

For the next month, Jiang Yuan wandered around Qingxiang City during the day, looking for Lu Xiaozhou.

After searching for a month, Jiang Yuan found loneliness and had to give up.

Lu Xiaozhou didn't want to see him, and Jiang Yuan couldn't help it.

After Jiang Yuan filled out his college entrance examination application, he was ready to leave Qingxiang City to find mythical beasts, meet legendary elves, and accomplish what he wanted to do.

When Latios flew to the seaside, the Dark Stone, which had not seen any movement for a month, suddenly emitted a faint light.

"Found it?"

Jiang Yuan was startled and quickly tapped into his superpower to let the Dark Stone lead the way.

The Dark Stone automatically floated in a certain direction, and Jiang Yuan followed behind the Dark Stone.

Arriving at a drug store, Jiang Yuan met an old acquaintance again.

"Lin Yibai?"

Jiang Yuan grabbed the Dark Stone and stared at Lin Yibai at the door of the store.

Next to Lin Yibai was the colorful Geng Gui. Geng Gui was carrying two bags of medicinal materials. It was the first to discover Jiang Yuan.

Gengar put the bag in his right hand to his left, then raised his right hand and waved his paw to greet Jiang Yuan.

"Hey, Jiang Yuan, why are you here?"

Lin Yibai turned his head and looked at Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan held the Dark Stone in one hand and narrowed his eyes when he saw the Dark Stone emitting bright light.

Anyone who has come into contact with this dark stone has found it.

"This, this, this, my brain is a bit lacking."

Latios patted his head.

In the elf ball, the crystal lantern spirit, which was using its mental power to observe the outside world, was also stunned.

Lin Yibai is Lu Xiaozhou???

What the hell???

Back in the police station, where were Lin Yibai and Meng Yaomo acting?

Treat everyone like a fool???

"Hello?"

Hua Beibei has never met Lin Yibai, so she doesn't know the relationship between Jiang Yuan and Lin Yibai.

Lin Yibai glanced at the Dark Stone, looked away, and asked doubtfully: "What are you doing? Why are you holding a glowing Dark Stone?"

"It's nothing, I'm just looking for someone."

Jiang Yuan put away the Dark Stone, then asked for a Dark Stone from Gengar, handed it to Lin Yibai, and telepathically said: "Grandpa Lu asked me to tell you something, don't think about revenge, just live a good life."

"Ah? What are you talking about?"

Lin Yibai's face was filled with confusion.

"That time at Jinghu, when you and Jiang Baiming fought for the ice coffin, it was for Xiaozhou, right? The master of Jinghu went to the Lu family to find the resurrection technique, so you knew there was such a thing as an ice coffin. You know me

We have a good relationship with Xiaozhou, and putting the ice coffin here with me is no different from putting it with you, so Jiang Baiming wasn’t asked to come get the ice coffin, right?"

Jiang Yuan continued.

"Ah? What are you talking about?"

Lin Yibai reread what he just said.

Jiang Yuan looked at Lin Yibai deeply, turned and left without saying anything.

After Jiang Yuan's figure completely disappeared from sight, Lin Yibai lowered his head and looked down at the dark stone carved with special patterns in his hand, and then clenched the dark stone tightly.

"Jingga?"

Gengar scratched his face.

What did Jiang Yuan say?

"Let's go, the people from the spiritual world hiding in the dark have already set their sights on me."

Lin Yibai exhaled and looked up at the sky, tears flashing in the corners of his eyes.

Don't think about revenge?

How is it possible? He has no way out.

He will drag those spiritual people who participated in the massacre and send them to hell together.

…

On the way back to Ouzuki Island.

The telepathy channel established by Latios exploded.

Among them, the first ones to explode were the elves who had known Lin Yibai for a long time, led by Crystal Lantern Fire Spirit and Mimikyu Q.

If there is a table in front of you, the crystal lantern fire spirit will definitely slap the table angrily.

Lu Xiaozhou is actually Lin Yibai?!

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it.

The clown turned out to be Jiang Yuan himself, and his friend had been hanging around him for two years without even noticing it.

Most of the elves that Jiang Yuan conquered later looked confused.

Crystal Lamp will give the elves some popular science on how Jiang Yuan met Lin Yibai and what happened to him.

To sum up, isn't Jiang Yuan just a clown? Lin Yibai kept him in the dark and kept him in the dark for so long.

"What are you talking about?"

Jiang Yuan joins the telepathy channel again.

The elves were silent for a moment.

"Why, do you think Lin Yibai is Lu Xiaozhou?"

Seeing that all the elves were silent, Jiang Yuan guessed what they were thinking.

Elves: Isn’t it?

Hasn't the Stone of Darkness already locked onto Lin Yibai?

"Lu Xiaozhou is not the only one who has come into contact with the Dark Stone, but also Grandpa Lu and Grandpa Lu's son, Lu Bai."

Jiang Yuan said calmly.

After Jiang Yuan discovered that there was a person like Lu Bai, the Crystal Lantern, Mimikyu, and Death Coffin suddenly realized.

The people who would react to the Dark Stone were not only Lu Xiaozhou, but also Lu Xiaozhou's father, Lu Bai.

Lin Yibai was Lu Bai, so Jiang Yuan was not surprised by this result.

When they first met, Jiang Yuan had doubts about Lin Yibai's identity.

With Jiang Baiming's strange bad temper, how could he become friends with an ordinary person who had just graduated from college and tell this ordinary person about his family's affairs?

Don't be ridiculous, Jiang Yuan wouldn't believe it even if he beat that unfortunate kid Jiang Tong to death.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan, who was full of doubts, tested Lin Yibai in the bureau by saying, "The dream monster didn't scream."

If Lin Yibai was a person from the spirit world, he would definitely know that the dream demon can attack with a cry, understand the meaning of "no scream", and know that the dream demon was forbearing and dormant at that time.

Then you may subconsciously enter a thinking state and wonder why the dream demon didn't scream.

Because people's subconscious actions cannot deceive others.

It's a pity that Lin Yibai is more skilled and disguises himself impeccably.

Lin Yibai had no superpower fluctuations, and he had no ill intentions towards him. Since then, Jiang Yuan had not tested Lin Yibai.

If you continue to test people who have no ill intentions towards you, wouldn't that be tantamount to being mean?

Jiang Yuan does not have delusions of being persecuted.
