Rebirth of Heavenly Reward

Chapter 42 The Mountain Demon and the Past

Standing under the old tree at the head of the village, Liang Jin had almost anticipated what kind of ruins and desolation the village would be like.Even so, she still wants to know the truth, what happened here three years ago.

She passed by the broken old locust tree, and there were dead branches and leaves under her feet. The village was filled with fog, and the sky was getting darker and darker. If it wasn't for the body gradually getting rid of the mortal body after the foundation was built, she would not have dared to go into the village alone. such a place.

Relying on a vague impression, she cautiously walked into this gloomy wasteland, surrounded by dead silence, except for the crisp sound of her feet stepping on dead branches, there was no other sound.

When she came to the place where her home was three years ago, she saw a desolation, and there were many signs of fighting around. A dilapidated wooden door was lying at her feet. Although it was decayed, the section of the broken part was smooth, and it was a sword. And for.

Everything in front of her eyes confirmed her guess, her parents died in the house fire for no reason, and those who really took their lives should be these people who broke into Laohuai Village.

While she was thinking, Liangjin's ears trembled suddenly, and she heard a rustling sound in the ruins not far away.

She squinted her eyes slightly, and as her spiritual sense swept across, she saw a palm-sized mountain demon rummaging through the ruins for a mouse infected with devilish energy. As soon as Liangjin's spiritual sense touched it, it immediately noticed it. With a shake of the mountain demon's body, it quickly turned into a cloud of dark green mist, and was about to run away!

Surprise flashed in Liangjin's eyes. This mountain demon's agility was far beyond her understanding. Liangjin's heart moved, and he pointed out a sword aura. The blazing sword light passed through the mist like lightning. After a scream, the mist shrank , restored to the appearance of the mountain demon, but there was an extra wound on its body that continued to bleed.

The mountain demon looked sluggish. Seeing that Liang Jin was about to attack again, it immediately begged for mercy:

"Daxian spare your life!"

This desolate land is not suitable for human habitation, but it has nurtured the monsters and ghosts in this area. The mountain goblin is a little monster comparable to a monk in the Qi training period, but the mountain goblin in front of Liangjin has already opened up his intelligence and strength. Comparable to the monks in the early stage of foundation establishment.

If it wasn't for Liang Jin's preemptive attack, and his sword moves with ease, giving the mountain monster the illusion that the strength of the person in front of him is far superior to it, otherwise, it would not beg for mercy so easily.

Liang Jin held the sword formula in his hand, looked at it with a stern face, and might make a move at any time:

"I can let you go, but you must answer my questions honestly."

The mountain demon looked at the sword energy in Liang Jin's hand tremblingly, nodded in panic and said:

"May I ask you, the little one will know everything without saying anything!"

The mountain demon spoke in a mannered manner, Liang Jin pointed to the ruins in front of him:

"Do you know where this wasteland came from?"

The mountain demon trembled all over when he heard the words, and then said with a smile on his face:

"Daxian, you are asking the right question! The little one has practiced in the nearby mountains for more than ten years, and he knows the movements of the world like the back of his hand! But he said that when the little one was just born..."

Liang Jin rolled her eyes and shouted sharply:

"Without further ado!"

The mountain demon trembled in fright at the stern shout, and didn't dare to talk any more, so he said anxiously:

"Great Immortal, calm down! My little mana is low, and I don't know much about what happened back then. I only know that three years ago, a monk of the Demonic Dao came here to seek revenge. This is the family in front of you, Great Immortal! The owner of this house is also a hidden Demonic Taoist. The seeker has deep grievances, and after a great battle, the mistress died on the spot protecting her daughter, and the demonic energy raged, and there was no grass in Laohuai Village!"

"Later, an immortal came in a hurry and killed a group of demon cultivators who were seeking revenge. The male master held the relics of his dead wife in his hand, wept uncontrollably, knelt down in regret, and begged the immortal to grant him death! In short, the light pierces the sky, and the sound shakes hundreds of miles."

"The Immortal Sword slashed the demons, and took away the family's surviving youngest daughter and the relics of the mistress. After this battle, the vitality of Laohuai Village was wiped out. As for their identities outside of this battle, I have no way of knowing. "

After the mountain demon finished speaking tremblingly, he glanced cautiously at Liang Jin, who had a serious expression on his face. When Liang Jin was in a daze, his two small eyes rolled around, thinking about how to get out.

Liang Jin was stunned for a long time by what the mountain demon said. She never expected that the truth would be so unbelievable.

The male master that the mountain demon said was undoubtedly her biological father, and she never thought that her father was actually a demon cultivator.What made her even more unbelievable was that Chen Yu was furious because of her mother, beheading demons with his sword...

Even her father died at Chen Yu's hands.

What is her mother's identity?

Liang Jin had never seen Chen Yu so angry that he lost his mind.

If she knew the truth of this matter in her previous life, she might have had a rift with Chen Yu, but in this life, in her memory, the shadows of her parents are far away, and she has long forgotten their appearance and their voices. The kindness to her is by no means false, and her suffering and pain are real. It is always difficult to determine right and wrong in the world. If she wants to solve the doubts that are constantly surging in her heart and know the grievances and hatreds of the previous generation, I am afraid, Chen Yu had to tell her personally.

Liang Jin sighed for a long time. She practiced Taoism for 200 years in her previous life. Birth, old age, sickness and death are all in reincarnation. She feels regretful in her heart. It can't be done.

Besides, if Chen Yu hadn't arrived in time, she might have died in that accident, so why talk about revenge?

Liang Jin waved his hand and let the mountain demon go away on his own, while he knelt down on the spot and kowtowed:

"Father, mother, the child is unworthy. After three years, he will return to his homeland. The child is now worshiping under the master's sect, practicing the Taoism of the immortal family, and has reached the foundation building. Parents don't need to worry about it. May they rest in peace under the Nine Springs."

After saying that, she bent down and kowtowed nine times, then got up, and left Laohuai Village without looking back.

After Liang Jin left Laohuai Village, she went straight to Yushui Town. She hurried all night and finally arrived at Yushui Town at noon on the second day.

As soon as she entered Yushui Town, Liang Jin frowned. She looked around suspiciously, feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the town.She suppressed the doubts in her heart, kept walking, and hurried to the inn that had been agreed with Liang Hao.

In the inn, Liang Hao and Qin Feng had sad faces. Qin Feng paced back and forth in the room, and Liang Hao sighed from time to time. When Liang Jin came, he saw such a dejected scene.

"What's the matter with you, isn't the recruiting of new disciples going well?"

They went down the mountain this time to recruit new disciples. Apart from that, Liang Jin really couldn't think of anything else that could make the two of them so worried.Seeing Liang Jin appearing, Qin Feng's worry faded a little:

"Junior Sister, you've come, Brother Liang and I are already worried to death!"

"Senior Brother Qin, don't worry, just speak slowly."

Liang Jin comforted Qin Feng first, then turned his gaze to Liang Hao.

In the end, it was Liang Hao who had to be more prudent. Instead of complaining to Liang Jin immediately, he asked with concern:

"Junior Sister, is this trip going well?"

Liang Jin nodded upon hearing this:

"Little sister's private matter is over, but it took some time to find the way, so it's a little late. I don't know why the two senior brothers are so anxious?"

Liang Hao patted his legs and sighed, and said sadly:

"Junior Sister, you don't know, the two of us started recruiting disciples immediately after entering Yushui Town. In previous years, Master Chen was responsible for contacting the people in charge of the town, while I visited the homes of ordinary people to see if there were boys and girls of the right age willing to join me. Zong."

"But this year I don't know why, the mayor heard that I was waiting for a visit, not only refused to see each other, but also kicked me out of the house. After I came out, I visited several houses, but all of them were treated coldly. , Those common people don’t want to offend the two of us, but they don’t want to let the younger generation of the family enter my sect.”

"It's more than that!"

Qin Feng's face was flushed with anxiety, and as soon as Liang Hao finished speaking, he immediately added:

"The attitudes of the families we went to were extremely perfunctory. Don't say that they refused to let the younger generation enter my sect. We didn't even meet the younger generation in their family!"

Liang Jin was taken aback. If Liang Hao and Qin Feng hadn't said it himself, she would never have believed it.

Ordinary people, who doesn't want to become a fairy?

In her previous life, she has seen too many mortals fight each other by any means in order to seek the way of cultivating immortals. This is always the case in the world, but for what you can't get, you will always try your best and do your best, just to fight for the illusory possibility that the immortal will live forever. The way is like this.

I really don't want to, that is after seeing through the cause and effect of the world of mortals, when everything is empty, how many ordinary people can have such a state of mind?

In this Yushui town, even if there are one or two families who are reluctant to let their children be away from their hometown, it is not the case for every household.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Something unusual must have happened in Yushui Town.

"Have the two senior brothers ever inquired about the reason here?"

After thinking deeply, Liang Jin asked.

But Liang Hao shook his head with a sad face:

"No, people in the town heard that we are disciples of the Lingyun Sect, and they were all unwilling to talk to me, for fear of avoiding it."

There must be a ghost in this matter!

Liang Jin was certain in her heart that what happened in Yushui Town must have a reason.

After pondering for a moment, she raised her head:

"Do the two senior brothers have silver taels?"

Qin Feng shook his head:

"I didn't bring any money with me, and the expenses for staying in the hotel were paid by Senior Brother Liang alone."

After speaking, he turned to look at Liang Hao.

Liang Hao took out a few hanging copper coins and some broken silver from his arms, handed them to Liang Jin and said doubtfully:

"Why do sisters want money?"

Liang Jin picked out a piece of silver from the money she had in hand, returned the rest of the money to Liang Hao, and smiled slyly:

"Two senior brothers, wait a moment, and wait for the younger sister to go out to find out the news."

After she finished speaking, she pointed her toes and went out of the inn through the window. Before Liang Hao and Qin Feng could react, her figure had already disappeared.

"Junior Sister Liang thought of something, but she didn't explain it to the two of us in detail."

Liang Hao looked helplessly at the empty window and sighed.

"Since Junior Sister Liang has a solution, the two of us will just wait for her news."

Presumably Liang Hao was worried, but Qin Feng had a lot of trust in Liang Jin. Since Liang Jin had betrayed the two of them, he simply didn't think about it, and only waited for Liang Jin to come back.

After Liangjin left the inn, she flew into a dark alley. There were two beggars fighting for food in the alley. The sudden appearance of a person of her age naturally caught the attention of the two beggars. They raised their heads with vigilant eyes. looking at her.

They have been begging on the street all year round, and they are the best at observing words and expressions. Seeing Liang Jin's extraordinary demeanor, they can see that the woman in front of Liang Jin has an unusual identity. Even if they are amazed by her appearance, they will not show greed on their faces.

Liang Jin tossed the piece of broken silver from Liang Hao in her hand, and the eyes of the two beggars were immediately attracted by it, staring straight at the broken silver in her hand.

"I have a question. Whoever answers it well will give me this piece of silver."

Liang Hao and Qin Feng didn't have much experience in the world, and they didn't know what to do when they hit a wall in an ordinary family, but Liang Jin was an extraordinary disciple. She knew that the town's right and wrong were changing, and these beggars who squatted on the streets all year round knew best.
