Self-denial System [Rebirth]

Chapter 22 The Encounter, Scene 2

Xu Mu felt a burst of despair.

I have done so much for him in this life, but in the end I still can't change the ending.

The gust of wind brought by the long sword hit Xu Mu's face so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.

Immediately after that, there was a clang, and the next moment, the sound of the sword piercing into flesh and blood resounded in my ears.

Xu Mu opened his eyes suddenly, his face was scarlet; turning around again, he saw Gu Jingyin's sword blade deeply sinking into the chest of a ferocious wild ghost behind him.

Xu Mu was stunned for a second, and immediately came back to his senses.Pulling out the saber from his waist, he made another strike in front of the evil ghost.The terrifying grimace instantly distorted and let out a piercing howl. In an instant, the figure disintegrated and exploded into pieces, scattered in the thick night.

The cold sweat on Xu Mu's body still didn't fall, and his chest and heart kept pounding.

It's okay, it's okay, I thought, could it be that this ghost saved my life?Thank you so much, Brother Ghost!

At this moment, a few figures in the distance came running in a hurry, they were the disciples of Fu Yun who had been ordered to leave just now, and they said out of breath: "Master, a ghost was chased here by us just now, Why is it missing?"

But just halfway through saying this, he stopped in his mouth, "Master, are you... all right..." One of the disciples looked at Gu Jingyin with a gloomy expression, and asked cautiously.

Gu Jingyin put away the sword and stuck it behind his back, walked towards them a few steps, and said, "It's nothing, how did you find out?"

"Go back to the head, most of the evil spirits in this town have been subdued." The disciple responded quickly, raising his head while talking, "Master Su, please go back to Wuqiling tomorrow."

Xu Mu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Gu Jingyin's eyes had finally moved away from him.Hastily retreated quietly into the shadows, and took out the teleportation whistle in his cuff.

Goodbye big devil!My son is leaving!

After a whistling, Xu Mu returned to the inn just now.

The little girl was still sitting on the head of the bed in a daze.

Xu Mu knelt down slowly and looked into her eyes, but his mind fell into another thought.

"Wu Qiling..."

To Xu Mu, these three words were all too familiar.

From the first day of coming to this world, these three words have been haunting like a nightmare.

It seems that there is no longer any escape.

Now the four places are sneaking around, and I am probably the only one who knows.Before the Wu Qiling catastrophe happened, the secret of the Qingluan Sect should be revealed to the public.

Xu Mu took the girl's little hand and said softly: "You will live in this inn." After saying that, he took a piece of jade from the hilt of his sword and stuffed it in her hand, "I will exchange this for money when I am hungry. I will spend it in a few days Just come back. Got it?"

The little girl looked down at the jade in her hand and nodded to him.

Xu Mu then stood up, and went out of the inn through the window.

The streets are still deserted, only the cold north wind blows.

Xu Mu thought about it, now that Gu Jingyin is going to Wuqiling, and he himself is going to Wuqiling, it is inevitable that the road is narrow.Since I haven't asked anything about the world for so many years, I might as well take advantage of these few days and go back to Mochi Peak to have a look.

【You want to go back to Mochi Peak? 】

Just as Xu Mu was about to take a step, he was startled by the system in his brain.

"Why are you awake in the middle of the night?"

[If you want to go back to Mochi Peak, you can avoid it, because it is completely unnecessary, go directly to Wuqiling. 】

"what do you mean?"

The system did not answer this time, but played a picture in his mind——

On the Mochi Peak where the thick ink of night has not yet faded, everything is shrouded in a depressing and suffocating mist.Corpses were strewn across the field, blood flowed like rivers, and the ground was full of Mochi Peak disciples who died tragically.

Xu Mu only felt that this scene was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, as if he had been splashed with cold water, and froze in place.

"This is... what happened here?"

[Because the sneaks are making trouble everywhere, the Yucheng faction is still relentless in planting and framing, and gathers five factions to jointly encircle and suppress Mochifeng. 】

What? ! !

The Yucheng faction has been attached to Qingluan for several years. If it weren't for Qingluan's huge power, how could it be able to gather the five factions?In the final analysis, Qingluan is still conniving.

But now the instigator is calling for the thief to catch the thief, and gathers in Wuqiling in a grand manner, euphemistically called "jointly eliminating ghosts".ridiculous.

Wu Qiling must go up.

[Ding——Challenge task 3 is time, please accept and complete it quickly. 】

Xu Mu asked, "What mission?"

[After half a month, go to Wuqiling to drive the evil spirits to hurt the disciples of Fuyun sect. 】

"What?!" Xu Mu's legs went limp when he heard this, and he almost fell off the sword.

How did he drive evil spirits to hurt people?I obviously want to save people, okay?

[Having been carefree for a few years, are you silly?Forgot who you are?Xu Muchen also forgot the three important things to do?This is the third. 】

Wait, does this mean that in the previous life, I was the one who hurt the disciples of the Fuyun sect before being arrested by them, and was finally killed by the head of the Fuyun sect, Gu Jingyin, with a sword?

"Wait a minute, why should I hurt their disciples?" Xu Mu felt like he was out of his mind!Why do you want to do such a stupid thing of hitting the muzzle of a gun!

Xu Muchen, why does this person like to be a monster so much!

etc!Didn't the five sects wash Mochi Peak with blood?Why wasn't he washed to death by blood!

【He escaped in those few days. 】

Are you fleeing?

Escaped?

Fuck!Why did my actions in this life match Xu Muchen's in the previous life inexplicably?The same selfishness, selfishness, selfishness, and lack of kindness!

collapse!

【He is not utterly heartless, after all, he still has a soft spot for Miss Wen, who died in this siege.So when all the immortal families gathered in Wuqiling to discuss the matter of getting rid of ghosts, they secretly used magic in an attempt to really manipulate the evil spirits to hurt Qingluan and sent his disciples to avenge his sister Wen.Unexpectedly, I was not good at martial arts, and accidentally injured a disciple of Fuyun Sect. 】

"What the hell! Doesn't Xu Muchen like Guan Liying? Why does he always miss Junior Sister Wen?!"

【He has admiration for all the female disciples of Mochi Peak. 】

"..."

It's time for a dog!Is this Xu Muchen out of his mind?Can't you just drag out an ignoble existence!

These three things of his are almost more deadly than one.The day when the three things are completed, it will probably be the day when Gu Jingyin pierces his heart with a sword and goes to the west!

[Don't be discouraged, after the Wu Qiling catastrophe is the time point for you to travel, and there will be no restrictions on your behavior after that. 】

"..."

The foreshadowing for death is complete, will the ending of death change?

You don't even have to think about the ending—it's definitely the same as in the previous life, being caught and tortured by Gu Jingyin until it's so tortured that life is worse than death!

[You have to believe that the future is still bright! 】

"..."

To be honest, Brother System, I don't even believe a single punctuation mark in your words! /Smile/.

※※※

Half a month later, Wu Qiling.

Xu Mu went up the mountain in the dead of night.

Wu Qiling is less than [-] kilometers away from Fuyun Mountain, and it was originally the place where Wu Qi's faction was located.It's just that now Wu Qi is repeatedly harassed by evil spirits, and residents are often killed or injured at the foot of the mountain, so he has to invite other sects to come to help.Now that the Fuyun faction is growing stronger and stronger, the Wuqi faction is attached to its sect.

Xu Mu walked lightly as he shuttled through the house.I saw that everything within the courtyard wall was quiet, and everyone should have fallen asleep.

Xu Mu walked slowly from room to room, his heart tangled like a mess.

In fact, he really wants to kill someone for revenge, but if the fake show is real, what is the difference between himself and those people?

He was walking slowly with his head down, when suddenly he caught a glimpse of a figure in front of him out of the corner of his eye.Xu Mu quickly raised his head, only to see a person in ocher clothes walking towards him.

Fuck!It's so damn good!He happened to meet a disciple of the Fuyun Sect!

Their leader is still looking for him!After all, last time he managed to kill his enemy with his own hands, but in the end he let himself run away again!Played him again!If they meet again this time, they will basically wait to die.

"It's you?" The man in front of him asked in surprise when he saw the person clearly.

Xu Mu carefully looked at the person in front of him, but he didn't have the slightest impression, and said, "Your Excellency?"

"Xingzhi in Xialin. Half a month ago, I went to Anyu with the head of the sect, and had a relationship with the young master. It's just that the young master suddenly disappeared without a trace. Our head has been looking for you for a long time..."

"Looking for me... why are you looking for me!" Xu Mu took a step back warily when he heard that he was indeed Fu Yun's disciple.

"The head said you were his old friend."

Hehe, young man, don't be fooled by him.Return old friends?With that look in his eyes, he wants to eat me when he sees me.

Seeing that he was so nervous, the man on the opposite side took a step forward in confusion, and said, "I didn't mean anything malicious. I don't know why the young master came here..."

"Aren't you here to discuss about getting rid of ghosts? Let me see if I can help you." Xu Mu thought to himself that he must not know that he is a disciple of Mochi Peak, otherwise it would be strange if he didn't arrest him as a remnant of evil spirits.

"So that's how it is," the man was surprised when he heard his words, probably because he felt that he was not familiar in Taoism, thinking that he was just an ordinary person.After a pause, he said again, "As an old friend of Sect Master Gu, he must also be a hidden master, why don't I report it..."

"..."

Could it be that now I have been reduced to the point where I have to rely on Gu Jingyin's reputation to live!Back then, he was still a little crybag who would only follow behind him!Now I am really capable!sad.

"Oh no, no need!" Xu Mu quickly stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve.

Also inform!Report what!Notify your enemy that it is online, please come out and kill it quickly?

"Come with me, I have something to tell you." Xu Mu pulled him aside.

"Sir, please tell me." The man was very cooperative.

"I have a way to gather all the evil spirits under Wu Qiling. Tomorrow at midnight, bring a few people with me and subdue the evil spirits I summoned."

After listening to his words, the man seemed to be listening to the Arabian Nights, and felt that he was an outsider.He shook his head and smiled, "Since Young Master can gather all the evil spirits together, how can I bring a few people together?"

Xu Mu said in his heart: ... I plan to let you Fuyun send his disciples to fight the evil ghosts and pretend to complete my task. At that time, I will use the soul refining beads to collect them all, and I will use you!

Xu Mu thought about how to explain it to him. After a while, he raised his head and said, "Don't worry, I really have a way to subdue them. You only need to bring a dozen people."

The man heard the words and did not answer.

But Xu Mu had a feeling in his heart that this man was not on guard against him, and even had a little affection for him, so he looked into his eyes and said, "You trust me?"

The man looked at him for a while, pondered for a moment, and said, "You can try it."

Anyway, the spiritual power of ghosts is not to be feared, at most, if they can't be subdued, it's just a waste of time.

Xu Mu smiled comfortably when he heard the words: "I will never lie to you." At the end, he suddenly remembered something, and added: "Just don't let Qingluan Sect Master Su know."

Xu Mu thought to himself, if Su Boling saw him, he would definitely guess that he had the Soul Refining Orb in his hand, so it would be no problem to deal with ghosts.If he had raised his guard and controlled the evil spirits in advance, then the situation would probably no longer be under his control.

The man smiled and said, "Listen to your master."

※※※

The next day, as soon as the sun set, Xu Mu arrived at the foot of Wuqiling Mountain.

After wandering in the woods for a while, he picked a stone and sat cross-legged on it, pulled out a leaf from his sleeve, and shook it slightly.All of a sudden, a cold wind swirled around, and the howling of the wind came from the dry branches, and the faint howling of animals and ghosts came from far away in the mountains and forests, one after another, the distance was long and long.

The surrounding Yin Qi gradually became thicker with the faint light from the leaves, and a dark mist filled the forest.

At midnight, a group of people and horses came slowly from the mountain.

Seeing them from a distance, Xu Mu flicked the leaf in their direction.All of a sudden, there were shouts all around, and several gusts of evil wind rushed towards the dozen people.

A group of Fuyun's disciples saw the sudden wind blowing up, and quickly drew their swords and set up a formation.

Xu Mu took back the leaves, intending to wait until they were almost done fighting, and then use the soul refining beads to collect the ghosts.Not only did he complete the task of "inflicting evil spirits on disciples of Fuyun", but he also took the opportunity to do some good deeds for the people.

Thinking of this, Xu Mu jumped off the rock and walked towards them slowly.

The sword light was shining in front of him, and the wind was howling. It seemed like a fierce battle.

Xu Mu felt that the time was almost up. After all, he promised Lin Xingzhi that there would be no problem, and he didn't want to really hurt disciple Fu Yun.So he spread out his palm and summoned the Soul Refining Orb.

The bead suddenly burst into light and spun in the palm of my hand.

A swirling gust of wind blew up all around, and the ghost cry instantly turned around and rushed towards him.

However, at this moment, there was a faint sound of a piano from the other side of the woods.

The sound of the piano is not like ordinary music, the tone is gentle, although the sound is not loud, the rhythm is sonorous and powerful like ringing rings, revealing the momentum of a thousand weights.

Xu Mu paused in his heart, feeling something was wrong.

Sure enough, the next moment, the ghost attracted by the soul refining orb suddenly went crazy and rushed around uncontrollably.Howling loudly, full of evil spirits.

Calling Soul Ye summoned all the ghosts down the mountain, and a dozen disciples fought against them, but they could barely resist.At this time, the sound of the piano stimulates the evil nature of the evil spirits, so they are really "violent ghosts".

The sudden increase in strength of the evil spirit made Fu Yun's disciples panic for a while.During the fierce battle, more than a dozen Fu Yun disciples were seriously injured, and several of them even fell into a pool of blood.

The sudden change made Xu Mu panic. He quickly drew out his long sword and stepped forward to help.

Seeing that it was him who came, Lin Xingzhi turned his head with blood all over his face: "Young master, this is... what should I do..."

Xu Mu swung his sword and split a male ghost in front of him in half, wiped the sticky juice splashed on his face: "What else can I do! Hit!"

Oh shit!I knew it!It's not that easy!No matter how hard I try, I still have to repeat the same mistakes every time!

At this moment, suddenly there was a loud voice from behind the mountain.

Xu Mu threw the sword out and let him fight the ghost. Taking advantage of this moment, he turned his head and saw a team of hundreds of people descending from the mountain, all of them holding torches, illuminating half of Wu Qiling.

Hundreds of people lined up in sects, and they could be seen as Fu Yun and Qing Luan just by their attire.The person standing at the front of the line was Su Boling with a gentle face and a smile on his lips.

Seeing this scene, Xu Mu's heart was already half cold.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized what it meant to be truly inescapable and to repeat the same mistakes.

Oh shit!really!Su Boling is here and Gu Jingyin is definitely here too!

Thinking of Gu Jingyin and Wu Qiling, the scene of being tied up in the center of the hall and tortured many years ago came to Xu Mu's mind.

At this moment, a sharp whistling suddenly came behind him with the blast.

Xu Mu hurriedly turned around, and the next moment, he felt a pain in his right shoulder and spit out a mouthful of blood.Looking down, I saw a string passing through the body, and there was still a faint silver light flowing on the string.

Then he lost consciousness.
