Chapter 380 Dreams of the Past & Book of the Dead

But the man obviously didn't listen to the words of this strange lonely ghost.

That barrier is not one of his methods, but just one of the methods used to catch the target... a gentle method.

"I haven't heard of any court, but if you don't mind, I have a kind of fire that I can use to burn you." The man sneered, and the crystal that had been prepared in his palm suddenly shot out like a bullet.

The crystal particles emitted by the lasing have the power to pierce a one-centimeter-thick steel plate!
Normal dynamic vision can't capture their tracks at all!

But when these crystal particles were about to pierce through the black-robed figure in front of him, it suddenly turned into a black smoke and dispersed!

Scattered, the crystal particles passed through, and reunited... Just like that, it easily dodged the attack.

Only then did the man realize a little danger, but he remained calm, and a large number of crystals slipped from his sleeve again.His lips opened and closed quickly, and he kept his body retreating rapidly...but he had to stop.

It was only five steps away.

This thing wearing a black robe, with eyes like a black cat, had appeared directly in front of the man at some point... almost touching.

"That's why I said you're half-baked, Jie Jie Jie... A first-class magician can't chant a spell for more than a second!"

The crystal was still entangled in the man's palm, but a huge hole had already been split in his chest!

The man's consciousness seemed to react at this time.He lowered his head subconsciously, looking at the horrible wound on his body...but he frowned, "What the hell are you?"

He is staring.

His body was completely crystallized at this moment, and then scattered into crystal particles like shattered tempered glass.

Those crystal particles were still bouncing on the ground, and it was wearing a black robe... She, Black Soul No. 18, let out that eerie laugh again, "It's not bad for half-baked people, at least they know how to use this kind of substitute magic. "

This man, from the very beginning...was not his real body.

But for Black Soul NO.18, she doesn't intend to pursue where this man's real body is hiding. She always puts the work that needs to be done in the first place.

After this time, the man ran away in panic and never appeared again, so she would save her trouble.

But if he still insisted on pestering him endlessly and continued to come again, it would not be a problem to her.

Because, no matter whether it is a substitute or the main body appearing here, it is nothing more than a slap.

If one slap can't solve it, then two slaps.

It's that simple.

What's important is that the dream she constructed has not been shaken from the very beginning... It belongs to the past dream of the gold master.

She turned into a shadow again and sneaked into the deserted alley.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

……

The only thing that makes Zhao Ru feel a sense of belonging is that more than half of the money for the construction of this two-story house in the village was earned by her working part-time over the years.

In the next year, a third floor will be built here.

Looking at it from a distance, Zhao Ru felt a small sense of satisfaction.

"Yo, Xiaoru, you're back!"

"Long time no see, let's go home!"

Along the way, there are people I know... Although this place is a little behind, it is not as deserted as in the city.

Even so, the year is sad.Behind the smiles of these neighbors, there is some bitterness hidden... probably everyone has experienced it before.

For those who go out to work, it is not easy to go home once.

Zhao Ru saw her father, mother, and also her younger brother.This is the only time she sees her family all year.

This should be a New Year's meal that can be remembered for a long time.

"Brother, when do you start school?"

Mother chopped off a whole chicken leg for Zhao Ru, and put it in the big rooster bowl in front of her.But she looked at her younger brother with concern.

The younger brother bowed his head and took a few mouthfuls of rice, muttering, "There's no need to start school."

"No need to start school?" Zhao Ru was taken aback, but she didn't react.

Father Zhao said at this moment: "Oh, what your brother means is that you don't have to rush to start school, and stay with you for a few more days."

Zhao Ru smiled, she felt a little warm, "Silly, when I go to work, you must have not finished the winter vacation, I have to catch the train back on the fifth day."

Unexpectedly, the younger brother put down the chopsticks at this moment, "Dad, why don't you just say that I dropped out of school?"

When she said this, Mother Zhao's wink didn't help... Zhao Ru could clearly feel the uncomfortable atmosphere on the table.

"Drop out?" Zhao Ru paused for a moment, she didn't know why she had the urge... She resisted the urge, took a deep breath and calmed down, "Why did you drop out? Didn't you study well?"

"If you drop it, you can drop it. You won't learn anything anyway." The younger brother said, "The tuition of the junior college is expensive, and there is no good unit to connect with after graduation. I will stop studying and come out to work as soon as possible."

"No! No matter how expensive the tuition is, you have been studying for so long!" Zhao Ru said in a deep voice, "You have to go back to school. You will graduate next year. How can you drop out of school at this time? After the year, I Talk to the teacher at your school immediately! The tuition fees for these years cannot be paid in vain!"

"It doesn't matter if you say it." The younger brother shook his head.

Under the table, Zhao's mother kept kicking her younger brother.

"Is there something else you guys are hiding from me?" Zhao Ru had already sensed her mother's little gesture.

"No, no." Zhao's mother hurriedly said at this moment: "Eat, eat! Don't talk about these things when it's Chinese New Year. About your brother, talk about it tomorrow, talk about it tomorrow!"

"No! I have to make it clear now." Zhao Ru said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, I won't eat this meal! Okay, don't tell me, right? I'll ask others, and I don't believe no one knows about it!"

Seeing Zhao Ru leave the dining table, Father Zhao slammed some tables and said, "Come back! Isn't that shameful enough? Your brother was expelled because he beat and injured someone at school! what?"

"Beat someone?" Zhao Ru suddenly turned around and looked at the younger brother: "Who are you beating? Why are you beating?"

"They tease me first, and the one who teases first is cheap! They deserve it if they are beaten to death."

"Will you die if you don't speak?" Zhao's father slapped his younger brother's face fiercely, and said angrily, "I was sent to the hospital and paid 3 yuan, don't you think it's not enough? You want to beat someone to death You are the one who is comfortable, right? You shameless thing!"

"What 3 yuan?" Zhao Ru suddenly looked at her father.

"It's nothing." Father Zhao fell silent all of a sudden, pouring wine by himself.

"Say it! What is 3 yuan?" Zhao Ru asked, "Where did you get so much 3 yuan from home? Tell me! Mom? Tell me!"

"This... I borrowed it, I asked someone to borrow it."

"Ask who?"

"Ask...ask the neighbor..."

"Okay, needless to say!" Zhao Ru wiped her face vigorously, "I know where the money came from. I gave it to you, right?"

Mother Zhao lowered her head all of a sudden.

"That's the money I used to build the house! It's the money you asked me for last time! It's the money you texted me last time saying that the government has subsidies, and it's the money for the third floor I want to add!! I thought... ...I thought..." Zhao Ru suddenly roared, "I'm so stupid! I actually believed you!"

"Okay!" Father Zhao said angrily, "What's wrong with helping your brother with 3 yuan? He's not your relative? You just care about the 3 yuan?"

"I won't help him? You said I won't help him?" Zhao Ru pointed at Zhao's father and said angrily, "Who paid for his tuition fees in the past few years? The second floor of this house was built, and you said it was for his future Who gave it to marry a daughter-in-law? At the beginning... At the beginning, who told me not to go to college and keep the money for him? Who is it?!! You... How could you treat me like this? I am not Your own?"

Snapped--!
Zhao's father slapped Zhao Ru on the face, his eyes widened and he said, "Who taught it? Are you talking to your father like this!"

Zhao Ru smiled.

She covered her face and smiled, "No one taught me, I learned it myself."

She turned around and returned to the room without saying a word, and came out with a suitcase shortly after, and was about to go out.

Zhao's mother cried and said, "Xiao Ru, don't be like this! If you have something to say, speak up, your father's temper is just like this."

"No need." Zhao Ru took a slow, deep breath, "I'm not coming back. Save the chicken legs for your good son to eat."

"You go!" Zhao's father pointed angrily: "If you have the ability, you go! After you leave, don't come back!!"

"Don't worry, I won't be coming back."

Firecrackers are set off, and the sound of firecrackers for the New Year fills the village and every household.

She came back in the afternoon.

He left at night.

……

She suddenly opened her eyes, and found that she broke out in a cold sweat...but she was still in this humble 'house'.

It was still dark, probably around midnight.

Zhao Ru subconsciously grabbed the crystal necklace she was wearing.

But she found that this crystal did not seem to be able to calm her down quickly and completely as usual.

……

……

His name is Cao Yu. At least, since the last time he started using this name, it hasn't been time for him to change his name.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

And placed in front of him, a display of a crystal figure carved out of crystal, suddenly split from it, and then split into two halves.

Cao Yu frowned. It took him a lot of time and materials to refine this double.The damage to the stand-in villain obviously caused some damage to his spirit.

He instinctively felt something was wrong... and uneasiness.

This is something that has never happened to him since he gained this power.Cao Yu took a deep breath, and quickly took out a packaged, very heavy ancient book from the drawer.

He started to flip through this ancient book, hoping to find some clues.

This ancient book is his source of strength... Ever since he accidentally found this ancient book from an antique shop when he was studying abroad ten years ago.

His life changed drastically.

It seems that he was chosen by this ancient book... because he happened to find that he could translate the ancient Egyptian language in this ancient book.

The Book of the Dead.
