Rebirth system is starting
Chapter 39
He Ruoxin reported to He Zilin about the vacation trip.He Zilin was reviewing documents in his study at that time, he didn't say anything, he just mentioned that he would pay He Ruoxin's card.
He Ruoxin didn't care about the money.Speaking of it, it is not necessary for him to report to He Zilin.After all, He Zilin never cared about him.He just didn't want to leave any doubts.Although the original owner was a little autistic, he still admired and revered this father.
He Zilin saw that He Ruoxin lowered his head as if he didn't dare to look at him, and for some reason, when he opened the door to leave, He Zilin said something mysterious: "Be careful."
He Ruoxin paused the hand that pushed the door, and said "En".
Just as He Ruoxin was preparing supplies for the trip, an unexpected person suddenly approached him.
Ever since He Ruoxin knew that he recklessly sold a talisman that shouldn't be sold, he regretted it.He didn't lack that money at all, so why did he sell that talisman in a crazy way?However, it was too late to regret. In order to make up for it, he didn't even dare to go to Antique Street recently.
But he didn't expect him to hide like this, and Ting Guge's shopkeeper still came to him.
"What do you want from me?" He Ruoxin asked with a pile of things bought from the mall.
These things are prepared for travel.Because there are many places to go, and it may be very remote, so he is well prepared.
I heard that the surname of Guge's treasurer is Shen, and everyone who knows him calls him Shen Bo.The shopkeeper could see He Ruoxin's displeasure, and smiled wryly in his heart.He also knew that most of these aliens were lonely and arrogant, and they didn't want to have too much contact with other people.But, if it wasn't for this matter, he would be in a real embarrassment, and he wouldn't go to the doctor in an emergency and find He Ruoxin here.
He did investigate He Ruoxin's identity.This is not difficult to find out, he naturally has some tricks, but He Ruoxin didn't deliberately hide it at the beginning.Moreover, the villa area where the He family is located is very confidential, and it is not accessible to ordinary people.That's why the shopkeeper had no choice but to find He Ruoxin when He Ruoxin was out.
However, he did ask for something, but what he asked for was not He Ruoxin, but the people behind He Ruoxin.Last time He Ruoxin brought over the talisman that he had never seen before, he had already had someone identify it.The appraiser was very surprised when he saw the talisman, and told him that this talisman was at least [-]% more powerful than ordinary evil spirit talismans.Don't underestimate the [-]%, the [-]% gap may play a decisive role in the confrontation with the enemy.Based on this, the shopkeeper speculated that He Ruoxin might be the apprentice of a master.
He originally wanted to wait for He Ruoxin to come to the door again to discuss the long-term cooperation in the future.Of course, it would be even better if he could connect with the expert behind He Ruoxin.Yes, the shopkeeper didn't believe that this kind of talisman was made by He Ruoxin.In his opinion, it is impossible for a foreigner without a certain level of cultivation to draw such a powerful talisman.And He Ruoxin is too young.
It has to be said that the shopkeeper judges people by their appearance, and is a bit blind.
The shopkeeper has been in contact with spiritual practitioners for many years, but he himself is not, and the ability to distinguish the abilities of spiritual practitioners is only guessed based on years of experience.He called these people with special abilities aliens.Because in this world, apart from spiritual practitioners, there are also some people who are born with special abilities.Of course, the number of spiritual practitioners accounted for the vast majority of aliens.
As for shopkeepers, there are not many people who are mortals but do business with other people, but they are all shrewd and tactful, even cunning.The same is true of the shopkeeper.However, even so, he didn't know much about the distribution of the major powers of spiritual practitioners.Especially the disciples of big aristocratic families seldom come out to buy materials by themselves, and the family can supply them directly, let alone sell talismans.
In fact, the main reason why the shopkeeper looked down on He Ruoxin was that he still remembered that when He Ruoxin came to buy materials for the first time, he didn't even know the grade and classification of these materials, and he looked like a rookie at first glance.
And the reason why the shopkeeper came to He Ruoxin was because of a trouble he encountered recently.
For those who do business, especially this kind of special business, the shopkeeper can be regarded as a high-ranking official, and he has contact with all kinds of teachings and all kinds of people.Especially officials and gangsters believe in this more than ordinary people.Of course, they are also the most generous.Not because of the money, but to keep the insider's mouth shut.
Of course the shopkeeper understood this truth, and he took the money with peace of mind.At the same time, he also knows that these people are also the most difficult to serve.Not only because of their high status, but mainly because the things they provoke are often not simple.Sure enough, the shopkeeper received a difficult matter.
The man who came to see him was Yan Hefeng, 42 years old, and a modest local official.Although the official position is not big, it is a person with real power.Most importantly, he is the eldest son of the Yan family.And the Yan family can be regarded as a relatively noble family.When Yan Hefeng found him, the shopkeeper naturally dared not refuse.
Yan Hefeng didn't hesitate, and directly explained the reason to the shopkeeper.
Actually speaking, Yan Hefeng was unlucky enough, even worse than He Zilin.Why do you say that, let's start with Yan Hefeng's first wife.
Yan Hefeng is 42 years old and has had three wives.But without exception, these three wives all ended up miserable.The death of the first wife was indeed caused by Yan Hefeng.Because she was kidnapped by the Yan family's rival family, and unfortunately was shot to death by stray bullets during the rescue process.And she is also Yan Hefeng's childhood sweetheart.Her death made Yan Hefeng feel guilty and sad for a long time.
The second wife died suddenly.The death of this woman is even more bizarre.The second Mrs. Yan was born in a military family. She has a bold personality and strong military strength. She can be described as a hero among women.However, it was hard to believe that such a woman who could knock down several grown men with her bare hands would die suddenly.Especially the unreliable conclusion that the cause of death was a heart attack.
Yan Hefeng clearly remembers that every year, the Yan family invites a doctor to check the health of family members.At that time, the doctor jokingly told him that Mrs. Yan's physical fitness was better than the average young man, and he was afraid that Yan Hefeng would be domestically abused!Moreover, he has never heard that his wife's family has a genetic disease such as heart disease.But no matter how Yan Hefeng investigated, he couldn't find any doubts.All the evidence shows that his wife died of a sudden illness.In the end, I had no choice but to let it go.
Just like when He Zilin's two wives died, it was rumored that he overthrew his wife.Yan's family, which has attracted a lot of attention, and Yan Hefengke's wife's remarks have intensified.In order to break this statement and avoid affecting the Yan family's reputation, Yan Hefeng had to marry a third wife.
The third wife's family background is very ordinary, from a small family.Originally, with Yan Hefeng's background and conditions, even the daughters of big aristocratic families could be chosen by him.But once the reputation of restraining his wife came out, no thoughtful family would want to marry their daughter to him, for fear of being restrained to death by him.The third wife has a more gentle personality. Although the two married not because of love, their married life is also very warm and harmonious.
Yan Hefeng also realized that the death of his first two wives might not have been accidental, so while secretly investigating, he also stepped up his protection for his current wife.And the third Mrs. Yan is also quiet and doesn't like to go out, so she has lived in peace for a few years.Unexpectedly, there was an accident in the end.In the shopping mall, a row of counters full of goods as high as a person fell on the poor woman, killing her on the spot.
So Yan Hefengke's wife's reputation has really come true.
Yan Hefeng saw something strange from the death of his third wife.The counters in the shopping mall are all fixed to the ground, how could they fall over so easily?And so coincidentally, he only collapsed when his wife passed by?
Thinking of the bizarre deaths of his previous wives, Yan Hefeng inevitably thought more.He had to suspect that someone was deliberately targeting him.He began to invite some so-called masters to investigate the matter and even tell his own fortune.After these masters told his fortune, they said that he was destined to have many children and grandchildren.Yan Hefeng felt that this order was really ironic.The three wives failed to leave him a son and a half daughter, and he has the reputation of restraining his wife, so how can he have the fate of having many children and grandchildren?
Although the successive deaths of his three wives did not shock Yan Hefeng deeply, he was also disheartened about his marriage.The family also persuaded him not to get married at all, and cast a wide net.But Yan Hefeng refused because it was so easy to get the facts and affect the family's reputation.In fact, it is because he has a shadow on marriage or love in his heart, and he does not want to focus on this aspect.
Unexpectedly, when he was already 40 years old, he unexpectedly met a beautiful love with him.The woman who made Yan Hefeng's heart beat was Lin Zhuqing.Lin Zhuqing is 35 years old and is a Chinese teacher.Lin Zhuqing's family background is not that distinguished, but it can be regarded as a scholarly family, and the family education is very strict.Lin Zhuqing also had a marriage before, but they divorced because of emotional discord.
After hesitating for a long time, Yan Hefeng took the initiative to pursue Lin Zhuqing.But when it comes to talking about marriage, she shrinks back.He himself had three marriages that ended in tragedy, and he was very afraid that this bad luck would befall Lin Zhuqing again.
At this time, the Yan family also had to act cautiously due to changes in the domestic situation.Yan Hefeng was also afraid that someone would make a fuss about his affairs with Lin Zhuqing and affect the Yan family's future plans.Fortunately, Lin Zhuqing was also very sensible, and didn't urge Yan Hefeng, but it made him feel even more ashamed of her.
Yan Hefeng's desire to find out the causes of the deaths of several wives became stronger.If a real person played tricks behind his back, Yan Hefeng would definitely let him know the fate of offending Yan's family!But if what happened before was really a coincidence, he also wanted to find a guarantee for his lover to avoid disasters, or to pray for blessings, so that Lin Zhuqing could grow old with him safely.
It's no secret that spiritual practitioners are among their high ranks.However, most of the real spiritual cultivation families are secluded from the world, and they don't want to have too much karmic involvement with the secular people.Even Yan Hefeng would not hire someone from a family of spiritual cultivation to do things for him.As for those so-called masters, Yan Hefeng snorted coldly, besides only saying that he has many children and grandchildren, what's the use?
So Yan Hefeng secretly asked someone to inquire about it, and they found out about Tingugu Pavilion.The shopkeeper not only sells talismans, but occasionally takes on some work for these strangers, so he can be regarded as an alternative intermediary!Moreover, the shopkeeper can also be called a half-professional. Most of the strangers he knows have real skills, and naturally they are not at the same level as the gang of masters Yan Hefeng is looking for.
However, after seeing Yan Hefeng, these strangers, including spiritual practitioners, shook their heads and said it was difficult, and they didn't want to take care of it anymore.Not only the shopkeeper was anxious, but Yan Hefeng was also anxious.The reactions of these "masters" have already made Yan Hefeng understand that something really happened to him, and the death of the first three wives is definitely not accidental!So he asked the shopkeeper to find someone more powerful to solve the matter for him.
"You mean, you want me to help you out?" He Ruoxin asked calmly while sitting in a teahouse, listening to the shopkeeper talk about the whole matter.
"Yes." The shopkeeper promised Yan Hefeng not to tell others casually, but in order to get help from the people behind He Ruoxin, he didn't care so much.
He Ruoxin took a sip of the tea in the teahouse. Although the taste was good, it was not as fragrant as the last time he drank it at the shopkeeper's place.
The shopkeeper is over half a hundred years old, and at this time, he can't see what He Ruoxin is thinking, so he can't help but start beating his heart.
Of course, He Ruoxin did not have any masters behind him, he did not immediately agree or refuse, he was weighing the pros and cons.To put it simply, it would be good for him and not bad for him to make friends with one more family member, but it also required his ability to solve it.
So many spiritual cultivators are unwilling to accept this matter, which shows that there must be something strange in it.Is he going to get into this troubled water?
Soon, He Ruoxin didn't have to worry about it anymore, because the system sounded.
Ding!Post a new mission!
Task Name: The Nie Yuan of Past and Present Lives
Task time: 10 day
Task reward: 100 exchange value, 500 experience value, a healing pill
Mission description: Desolate, cold and empty, dreams are hard to come true, and infatuation, resentment and obsession are hard to get rid of.
Task penalty: exchange value minus 200
This is a fucking mission!He Ruoxin roared in his heart.
"Aren't you still short of 100 exchange value? Isn't this delivered to your door? Comeon! Fighting, young man!" the system called in He Ruoxin's mind.
F! U! C! K!
The four letters immediately filled He Ruoxin's heart.
He Ruoxin didn't care about the money.Speaking of it, it is not necessary for him to report to He Zilin.After all, He Zilin never cared about him.He just didn't want to leave any doubts.Although the original owner was a little autistic, he still admired and revered this father.
He Zilin saw that He Ruoxin lowered his head as if he didn't dare to look at him, and for some reason, when he opened the door to leave, He Zilin said something mysterious: "Be careful."
