Self-denial System [Rebirth]

It was a hideous and broken face.

And this face was pressed tightly in front of him at this time.The two eyeballs were covered with maroon blood, and the forehead was empty, as if it had been sliced ​​off with a knife, and the shocking wound was covered with horrible blood scabs.

Xu Mu had only one thought, which was to push this thing away.But he found that he couldn't move his arm at all.Not only can't move, but can't move anywhere.

When he was wondering, the face in front of him suddenly moved, and he stepped back.Only then did Xu Mu fully see what was standing in front of him.

It was a woman, or had been a woman.

At this time, it is no longer a person.

She is wearing a dark red dress, the color is not as bright as ordinary cloth, but it looks like it has been soaked in blood.Seeing someone looking at her, the woman lifted the veil hanging in front of her and covered her entire face.

"Who are you?" Xu Mu calmed down and asked calmly.

There was no expression on the woman's face under the veil, but her voice was extremely hoarse: "You don't need to know who I am."

Xu Mu: "What are you going to do?"

Woman: "You don't have to know what I'm going to do."

Xu Mu: "..."

Xu Mu thought it was useless to talk to her. Xu Mu looked down, only to find that there were dozens of extremely thin ropes wrapped around his body, which were deeply embedded in the flesh through the white shirt, almost Bleeding came out, and he was firmly trapped on the bed, unable to move.

Seeing this scene, Xu Mu knew in his heart that what this woman wanted to do was definitely not a good thing.

But the next moment, Xu Mu suddenly realized something, and hurriedly raised his head and asked, "Where's that child? Where did you get him?"

The woman waved her hand, and a chair flew over.The young man's small body was sunk in a large chair, his face was calm, as if he was still in deep sleep.

Only then did Xu Mu heave a sigh of relief. Seeing that he was fine, he had nothing to worry about.Putting on a normal tone again, she said, "Girl, we are strangers and have no grievances. Why make things difficult for us? If you have any difficulties, you can talk to me, maybe I can help you." you……"

"You guys have helped me a lot by staying honest." The woman's voice still seemed to be worn out by sandpaper.

"Don't, I see that you are a person with a story. Anyway, meeting is fate, don't you plan to share your life experience..." Xu Mu seemed to have completely forgotten that he was still tied up, and started chatting a little homely meaning.

After hearing this, the woman didn't intend to talk to him at all, but turned around and faced the boy in the chair.After examining it carefully, he slowly raised his right hand and stroked the center of the boy's eyebrows, heart, and abdomen.

Then he nodded in satisfaction, raised his middle finger slightly, revealing his long sharp nails.

However, just when the woman's pointed armor was about to touch the boy's forehead, someone grabbed her wrist firmly.

"What do you want blood for?" Xu Mu asked behind her, "I've waited for so long, and I finally got what you're going to do. Come and explain me."

The woman turned her head away in horror, looking at him speechless.

"I wanted to hear what you had to say, but I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful, but it's not too late, I'm still willing to listen." Xu Mu clasped her wrist tightly, testing her Spiritual power.

The woman gradually couldn't bear it anymore, her complexion became worse and worse, and her figure became erratic.Just when the transparent body was about to disappear, the woman finally spoke, her hoarse voice was full of misery: "Please, please."

Xu Mu was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and the woman's bloodshot eyes filled with tears. Seeing this scene, Xu Mu didn't know how to react for a moment, and couldn't help but stop the movements of his hands.

Taking the opportunity, the woman's figure turned into a gust of wind and broke through the door.

Xu Mu: ... I shouldn't have believed you.

Xu Mu looked at the door thoughtfully, if he judged correctly, this woman should be a ghost.

Ghosts are different from demons, they are the most yin things.Yangshou is exhausted, the body is gone, and only a hazy non-entity remains.Since the balance of yin and yang was broken, he became a body of pure yin, so he naturally had a little more ability than ordinary people.But if no one controls it, the spiritual power will be extremely low.

It's just that ghosts only live in the underworld, and if they return to the underworld, they can only come out at night.If you want to come and go normally in the world, you must first drink the essence and blood.And eyebrow blood, heart apex blood and umbilical cord blood are exactly where human essence blood is.

Under Mochi Peak, villagers are often sucked dry by ghosts.At that time, I knew where the ghost came from, so I used the soul refining beads to collect it without thinking about it, but now I didn't expect to find ghosts at the foot of Yanshan Mountain.Although in the eyes of cultivators, this thing is not scary, it is indeed a great threat to ordinary people.

For hundreds of years, all sects and factions have Taoist formations and seals to suppress evil spirits to prevent evil spirits from causing chaos.At this time, why do you encounter evil spirits in countless places?Is it all the work of the Yucheng faction?But if it's not under Mochi Peak, what's the intention?

[Do you want to know why? 】The system brushed the sense of presence at the right time.

"speak."

【You will know later. 】

"..."

[I am here to ensure that the plot can be restored as much as possible. 】

"...May I ask if you can go away?"

Xu Mu thought it was a big deal, I'll catch a ghost tonight and ask him, do you still need me?

Maybe a series of clues can be dug up. When the evidence is confirmed, I can justly say that the ghost was not raised by me, and return to the hometown, no, return to the peak!

While thinking, he paced back to the bed, looked down, and saw that his white shirt was covered with mud; looking at the bed, it was also filthy.

Xu Mu turned his head to look at Gu Jingyin, the white clothes on his body were also stained with mud.

"Tsk tsk, what kind of rope does this girl use to make it bad, she just needs to use sludge to dissolve it. Now, I have to do the laundry again, not only the clothes but also the bed sheets! What a crime." Xu Mu thought. There was a bitterness.

While complaining, he took off his shirt, wrapped it with the bed sheet and threw it aside.He quickly walked to the chair again, stretched out his hand and waved in front of the boy's eyes, "Sleeping so hard?"

Seeing that he had no intention of waking up, Xu Mu leaned over and took off his clothes with confidence, intending to destroy the corpse before he woke up.

First carefully unfastened his belt, then slowly opened his collar, reached into the clothes with one hand to support his back, helped him up from the chair, and pulled off one sleeve with the other hand.

Didn't wake up, perfect!

Xu Mu switched hands, intending to support his back again and remove the sleeve on the other side.However, just when he lifted the boy up and hugged him, the boy suddenly woke up.

The two were at an awkward distance, eyes to eyes, nose to nose.

This is nothing, what is even more embarrassing is that Xu Mu still has one hand behind his back, only separated by a thin layer of underwear.Last night, he could only vaguely touch his bones through two layers of clothes, but now Xu Mu could almost clearly feel the young man's powerful heartbeat, as if he was holding this fresh flesh and blood in his palm.

The two looked at each other, and Xu Mu immediately let go of his hands and stood up.

However, Xu Mu is Xu Mu after all, and his embarrassment will not exceed a second.So the next second he regained his relaxed face, and asked with a smile, "Are you awake? How did you sleep last night?"

Gu Jingyin first looked up at him, and then looked down at his messy clothes.After being stunned for a moment, his face gradually became hot.

Xu Mu looked at the young man who was sitting in a chair and looked down at his clothes, and felt very uncomfortable, as if he had bullied the weak.

"Don't be like this, just say something, are you stupid?" Xu Mu bent down, stretched out a finger and scratched the boy's chin.

While trying to resolve the strange atmosphere, he looked at his half-removed clothes and felt more and more inappropriate.

Should I take it off for him, or put it on again?

After thinking for a few seconds, Xu Mu took a step forward, grabbed his collar with both hands and pulled it out, and took off his clothes in a snap, without sloppiness at all.

The young man's whole body was brought forward by his slightly rough movements, and then he hurriedly sat upright, raised his face to look at him in a daze, and said, "Senior brother... what are you doing?"

"Take off your clothes." Xu Mu replied casually.

The boy opened his eyes wide and looked straight at him.

"Get up." Xu Mu said as he kicked the sheets and clothes at his feet aside.

"Where are you going..." The boy stood up from his chair.

"Go to bed."

The boy was taken aback when he heard this, his cheeks were flushed red.

"Stand still, wait for me to carry you up?" Xu Mu turned around and said.

"No...no need..." The young man quickly got into the quilt, half of his face was buried under the quilt, only his eyes were exposed, and he looked at Xu Mu without blinking.

Seeing this, Xu Mu smiled, and stretched out his hands to shave his long eyelashes, but the boy quickly slid down into the quilt with his whole body, avoiding his "craws".

Xu Mu withdrew his hand that had stopped in mid-air, cleared his throat, "Come out."

After a while, the boy showed half of his head again, staring at Xu Mu with a pair of clear eyes.

"I'm so scary, I'm so scared every day." Xu Mu smiled helplessly, took off his robe, lifted the quilt, wrapped the boy in his own robe, and covered the quilt again, " The bed sheet under you was taken off by me, and it would be uncomfortable to wear only one bed board, so let me make do with it first."

"Why did you take off the bed sheet?" Gu Jingyin asked.

"Because you wet the bed last night." Xu Mu stood up, picked up the clothes on the ground and walked towards the door.

After hearing this, Gu Jingyin was shocked and turned pale.

"I lied to you." Xu Mu walked to the door and turned around again.

Gu Jingyin: ...

※※※

In late winter and early spring, although it is still freezing cold, the stream has melted and the gurgling water is crystal clear.

After traveling for so long and being an unlucky ghost for so long, Xu Mu is already familiar with washing clothes.

And when he was in Mochi Peak, he discovered that pure hand washing can be used as a daily task to make up the number!Because the sb in the system said that as long as his hand feels pain, he can get the pain value!That being the case, instead of looking around for someone to help people shield from swords every day, it's better to wash clothes quietly by yourself.

"Brother, let me help you..."

Xu Mu turned his head and saw Gu Jingyin running out of the house.

"No!" Xu Mu immediately rejected him.This place is desolate and uninhabited, and I am worried that I can't find the pain point. I finally have a chance to do laundry. At least it can be regarded as the completion of the task, just don't deduct points for now.

[Your task is to obtain the pain value of one person every day, this shouldn't be...] The system suddenly questioned.

"Why not? Didn't I just wash clothes at Mochi Peak before?"

[That's because you have to wash Gu Jingyin if you don't wash it, which is equivalent to you doing it for him. 】

"Then it's the same now. If I don't wash it, he has to wash it, because there are only two of us here."

【…】

"You are not allowed to wash, go back quickly!" Xu Mu protected the clothes in front of him, as if he was afraid that someone would grab the food.

"I want to watch my brother here..." The boy still refused to leave, squatting beside him.

Xu Mu was very speechless, and said: "Look at it and look at it from a distance, and disturb my laundry here."

Hearing this, the young man got up and ran away for a certain distance, and went downstream.

Xu Mu squatted by the stream for a long time, feeling pain in his back, raised his head and exhaled, and suddenly saw a flat stone at his feet.

Looking at the boy squatting by the downstream stream as if playing with mud, Xu Mu suddenly had a tricky idea.

He picked up the stone, poured some spiritual power into his fingertips, and carved two small figures on it, one big and one small.With a light wave, the stone turned into a peach blossom.Xu Mu threw the flower into the water and floated downstream along the current.

Gu Jingyin was tinkering with the aquatic plants by the stream with his head down. He wanted to raise his head to take a sneak peek at his senior brother, but he didn't expect to see a peach blossom when he raised his head, it was a peach blossom as big as the mouth of a bowl.I can't help wondering: it's just early spring, how can there be such a big peach blossom?

So I dialed the water, took the flower in my hand, and was about to take a closer look, but the flower in my hand turned into a stone!

There are also two rough-painted little informants engraved on the stone, one big and one small, the big one is as big as half a palm, and the small one is only the size of two peas.When Gu Jingyin saw this painting, he couldn't help laughing, he was the only senior who could turn stones into peach blossoms.

When I was looking at the villain, someone suddenly patted me on the shoulder: "Is my painting good-looking?"

Gu Jingyin was still immersed in the stone painting, he was not prepared at all, when he slipped on the sole of his foot, he fell into the water.

Now it was Xu Mu's turn to be surprised. He was so scared that he fell into the water just by saying a word?It's over!Another thing to offend the enemy!The crime is added to the class!

Gu Jingyin popped half of his head out of the water, his long black hair stuck to his fair face, his long eyelashes were covered with drops of water, there was no reproach in his eyes, but a hint of...joy.

Xu Mu: Am I reading that right?

"Brother, I like your flowers." The boy spit out a few bubbles in the water.

Xu Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Hurry up, don't freeze." As he spoke, he stepped forward to sneak him out.

However, at this moment, the boy looked at him with frightened eyes.

Xu Mu's heart sank, and he turned around quickly.

I saw a person standing behind me at some point.
