Rebirth system is starting

He Ruoxin hadn't mastered the sword technique yet, so he couldn't practice it, but he also gradually learned some sword skills during this time.A mahogany sword was swung in his hand in style, causing a lot of damage to the locust tree in a short period of time.But it also made the injured locust tree even more angry, and several branches threw it towards He Ruoxin at the same time.

He Ruoxin suddenly felt more pressured.Fortunately, the alley was not long, and the other two had already reached the entrance of the alley.He Ruoxin decided that if he couldn't do it, he would go with the 36 plan!

Just as He Ruoxin was thinking about how to leave, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.The locust tree is yin, and he remembered that there happened to be a kind of talisman in the talisman collection that was its nemesis, and the name was Chunyang talisman.As the name suggests, this talisman can generate a lot of yang energy after use.It is one of the new symbols He Ruoxin learned.He originally thought that this talisman could be used on people who had been sucked by ghosts, but now it seems that it is not without attack power.

With a flick of He Ruoxin's wrist, a Pure Yang Talisman was sandwiched between his fingers.After urging it with spiritual power, he threw the talisman at one of the locust trees.

A puff of black smoke rose from the locust tree, and the branches on its body trembled like electricity.As soon as He Ruoxin saw that the Chunyang Talisman was useful, he immediately took out a few more Talismans and pasted them on the other pagoda trees like lightning, and he himself took advantage of this opportunity to run out of the encirclement of the pagoda trees and head towards the entrance of the alley. run away.At this time, the fog at the entrance of the alley had almost dissipated.

When Chen Jiarong and Zheng Andrew saw He Ruoxin running out, they also breathed a sigh of relief.

The three of them sat back in the car to rest temporarily.

"Zhuozi, what happened to those locust trees?" Chen Jiarong asked.

Zheng Andrew told the two of them what he had heard from the old man.He only listened to it as a story. After experiencing those weird locust trees, he was not sure that the legend about the Cheng family was true.

With locust trees guarding the alley, it became difficult to arrest Cheng Huai.And Zheng Andrew was also injured.

Zheng Andrew also found that he was in pain all over his body when he got back to the car.I didn't feel anything during the fight just now, but now I feel that the part hit by the locust tree is burning and uncomfortable.

He Ruoxin took out a bottle of water from the system backpack, handed it to Zheng Andrew, and said, "Drink some of it, and rub the rest on the wound." Inside was the water he had blessed with the sword talisman, which had a great effect on the healing of the wound. the benefits of.

Zheng Andrew also knew He Ruoxin's miraculousness from He Ruoxin's performance just now, took the bottle without hesitation, and took a sip directly.

This move is also a trust in He Ruoxin.

Seeing Zheng Andrew's performance, He Ruoxin gave him a high look.And being able to support for so long under the attack of the ghost locust tree shows that he has good strength and courage.

Zheng Andro only felt a cool air flowing down the esophagus.Immediately, I felt refreshed, my tired body recovered a lot, and the muscle throbbing eased a little.His eyes lit up as he looked at the bottle.It really is a good thing!

He then rolled up his sleeves and poured some water on the wound on his arm.The hot feeling was instantly replaced by a coolness.

After Zheng Andrew finished smearing the wound, he handed the half-filled water bottle to He Ruoxin.

He Ruoxin shook his head and said, "Keep it! But the shelf life is only one year."

Zheng Andrew is not polite either.It's a lie that he isn't moved by such a good thing.

"Are you a Taoist priest?" Zheng Andrews could see the mahogany sword in He Ruoxin's hand just now, so he asked.

"No, I'm a spiritual cultivator." He Ruoxin said while secretly motivating his mind to restore the spiritual power that was consumed just now.

Zheng Andro was about to ask what a spiritual cultivator is, but He Ruoxin said: "I want to go back to Huaixiang to have a look!" His mission has not been completed, he must go to Huaixiang to find out.

He Ruoxin looked out the car window towards the alley.At this time, the fog at the entrance of the alley completely dissipated, but because of the angle, the situation inside could not be seen.He continued: "You guys stay here first. If there is no special situation, I will send you two over." He Ruoxin put a little emphasis on the word "special".

Seeing that he had to go back, Chen Jiarong was a little worried, and said, "Ruo Xin, be careful." He wanted to give him the gun.

He Ruoxin's heart warmed, he pressed down his hand, and said, "I don't know how to use a gun, it's just tasteless to me. And the police's guns can't be used by others casually! This is a violation of the regulations!"

"Then don't go back!" Chen Jiarong said immediately.

Although Chen Jiarong believed in He Ruoxin's strength, this matter was not He Ruoxin's responsibility in the first place. If he hadn't forced He Ruoxin to participate, he wouldn't have taken the risk.So he disagreed with He Ruoxin going back.

"Brother Chen, it's okay. I have something that can restrain that ghost locust tree inside. Believe me, I won't make fun of my own safety." He Ruoxin replied.

He Ruoxin repeatedly insisted that he would not be in danger, so he reluctantly got Chen Jiarong to agree.

After getting out of the car, He Ruoxin walked towards the entrance of the alley.Looking in from the alley, the inside seems to have returned to calm.He Ruoxin walked into the alley, stepped on the bluestone bricks, and found that there were still branches of the locust tree that he had cut off just now, and there were also black marks on the body of the locust tree beside him that had been bombarded by talismans. Several pieces of bluestone bricks were broken.If you haven't seen the battle just now with your own eyes, some people may think that a typhoon has just been experienced here.

He Ruoxin walked slowly into the alley, feeling the vicissitudes of the ancient alley.Unlike the quiet and quiet feeling brought by the ordinary ancient alleys, He Ruoxin only felt that the yin here was too heavy, a bit biting.He is not like Zheng Andrew who regrets that this place is about to be destroyed, but he is glad that this place will disappear soon.Regardless of the location and layout, the feng shui of this Huai Lane is terrible.People who live here will have their fortunes slowly decline.

According to what the old man living alone said, the Cheng family may have indeed produced Taoist priests in ancient times.Later, the descendants lost the ability to use spiritual power, maybe it was the punishment given by the gods for the ancestors who did something harmful to nature.

The word "lucky way" looks simple, but it contains many truths.Just like people with strong fortune will bring benefits to those around them, and people with bad luck may also bring misfortune to others.It is by no means empty talk that one person attains enlightenment and a chicken dog ascends to heaven.The feng shui of Huai Lane is so bad, it is probably inseparable from the decline of the Cheng family's fortune.

Following Zheng Andrew's instructions, He Ruoxin walked to the end of Huai Lane, in front of the mansion with the vermilion lacquer gate.The place where the plaque hung on the top of the gate is empty, which makes the mansion look dilapidated.This is the Cheng family's old house, which is also Cheng Huai's home.

The old and quiet alleys, the bluestone roads glowing with cold light, and the dilapidated old houses all seem to fit all the elements of horror movies.When He Ruoxin put his hand in front of the confinement gate, he felt his heart beating fast, and he didn't dare to push it away.

He called out to the system a few times in his heart for courage, but he didn't get a response from the system, He Ruoxin felt a little bit disappointed.

Exhaling a breath, He Ruoxin exerted force on his hands, and the door opened with a "creak".He Ruoxin tightened his hand holding the sword, and stepped over the threshold into the courtyard.

This courtyard should be the final proof of the glory of the Cheng family.He Ruoxin looked around carefully.The carvings on the eaves can no longer see the shape, but the carvings and paintings under the beams can still see some color.The courtyard was covered with dead branches and scattered leaves, and the locust tree, as tall as the alley, covered half of the sky above the courtyard, adding a bit of gloom.

He Ruoxin didn't stop in the courtyard, and walked straight to the main hall.The door of the main hall was open, He Ruoxin looked in from the door, and had a panoramic view.There are only a few pieces of mahogany furniture in the empty lobby.There is a portrait of Sanqing hanging on the wall facing the door in the main hall.The canvas of the portrait was a little yellow, as if it had aged.The ground is paved with the same bluestone bricks as in the alley, but much smoother.

There was a chilling atmosphere in the main hall.

Without hesitation, He Ruoxin stepped in.

At this moment, a person suddenly appeared on the big scarlet chair in the main hall.He Ruoxin paused, and calmly looked at the person who appeared strangely.

There was a smile on the corner of the man's mouth, and he looked at He Ruoxin very casually.She looked about the same age as He Ruoxin, but she was wearing a green shirt and long robe.Her cheekbones are slightly raised, her eyes are deep-set, and she holds a folding fan in one hand.If it weren't for his short hair, he would look like a scholar of letters.

"Anyone who comes is a guest, why don't you sit down and have a chat," said the man.

"You are Cheng Huai?" He Ruoxin put away the mahogany sword with a flick of his wrist, walked to sit down opposite Cheng Huai.

"It's right here." Cheng Huai replied calmly.

"Where are those girls?" He Ruoxin asked after feeling the mahogany sword equipped behind him, and he calmed down a little.

"Dead." Cheng Huai said without raising his eyelids while stroking the fan bone with his slender fingers.

He Ruoxin looked at Cheng Huai coldly, and said in an affirmative tone, "You killed them."

Cheng Huai sneered, tapped the palm of his hand with a fan, and said, "You are wrong! I didn't move a single finger of theirs, they did it voluntarily."

"But their deaths have something to do with you."

"so what?"

He Ruoxin stared into Cheng Huai's eyes for a long time, and asked, "Why did you kill them?"

Cheng Huai unfolded the fan bit by bit, revealing the pattern inside.He Ruoxin could clearly see that the fan was a girl in ancient costume.

The girl didn't have her hair tied up, her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, she was wearing a long white dress, her expression was mournful, and her pretty face was distorted every now and then.

"The Cheng family is a family of heavenly masters, and I am the No.17 successor of the Cheng family." Cheng Huai ignored He Ruoxin's question and said to himself:

"The first generation ancestors of the Cheng family once worshiped under the sect of Zhengdao Zhang Tianshi Note 1. At that time, the devils were rampant in the middle of Shu, and the daytime was the city, and they were good at plagues. The ancestors followed the ancestors to eliminate harm and benefit the people, and finally eliminated the six. Demon, gained merit. After the ancestor became a teacher, he lived in seclusion in Deli, which is now X City. He recorded his years of experience and acquired Taoism, and gave them to future generations to learn. My lineage, hundreds of years Those who come here to learn are all the ancient books left by the ancestors. It is a pity that the century-old inheritance has an accident when the tenth generation Patriarch is in office."

When Cheng Huai said this, there was a trace of complicated emotions in his eyes.It just disappeared so quickly that He Ruoxin had no time to tell.

"What accident?" He Ruoxin asked.
