The Return of the Demon

"Ning Chen, get out of here."

"Second Master, you can't go in... Fourth Master has caught a cold, don't let him infect you."

"Get out of here, damned slave, how dare you block my way? Tell that bastard to stop pretending to be dead and get out of here to see me."

A loud slap was mixed with the insults.

Ning Chen was awakened.

He looked around the small room blankly.

A square table, a round stool, a shabby little bed, nothing else.

Where is this?

Ning Chen was wondering, fragments of memory forced into his mind, and the intense pain almost made him faint.

But the pain came and went quickly.

Ning Chen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his expression was a little strange... He actually traveled through time.

He was originally the commander of a special forces unit on Earth. When he was exchanging fire with the enemy, he was hit by a stray bullet and died for his country.

After death, he actually traveled through time to the person with the same name and surname as him?

This is the Great Xuan Dynasty.

This is a dynasty that has never appeared in history.

However, the previous owner of this body had a miserable life.

His father, Ning Ziming, was the Minister of Rites of the current dynasty, and was a second-rank official.

But Ning Chen lived a life worse than even the servants in this family.

Ning Ziming and Ning Chen's mother were childhood sweethearts.

Before Ning Ziming went to Beijing to take the imperial examination, he promised Ning Chen's mother that he would come back to marry her after he passed the imperial examination.

But Ning Chen's mother waited for five years.

In fact, Ning Ziming was the second place in the imperial examination five years ago, and was favored by the left prime minister of the current dynasty. He married the daughter of the left prime minister and had three children.

The Great Xuan Dynasty puts filial piety first, and Ning Ziming came back this time just to worship his ancestors.

Ning Chen's mother didn't know all this at all, and thought that Ning Ziming came back to take her to the capital to enjoy life.

But after a night of love, this beast patted his butt and left, never to return!

Afterwards, Ning Chen's mother found out that she was pregnant.

When Ning Chen was seven years old, his mother became depressed and passed away.

Later, Ning Chen lived by begging and grew up eating at other people's homes.

When Ning Chen was twelve years old, Ning Ziming sent someone to find him and took him back to the Ning family.

Later, Ning Chen realized that it was not Ning Ziming's conscience that changed, but he was worried about his future.

He was afraid that his political enemies would know that he was unfeeling and abandoned his flesh and blood... so he took Ning Chen home first and made up a perfect story.

But Ning's mistress Chang Ruyue and her three sons were worried that Ning Chen would divide the family property in the future, so they didn't like Ning Chen at all.

Ning Chen tried to please them carefully every day, but he only got more and more bullying.

But no matter how he was bullied, Ning Chen didn't say anything, because he didn't want to beg anymore.

But what he didn't know was that no matter how he compromised... the other party would not treat him as a family member, and wanted his life.

Now it was autumn, and Ning Chen was still wearing thin clothes, and he caught a cold.

Not only did they not allow the doctor to treat Ning Chen, they also secretly poured cold water on Ning Chen's bedding.

As a result, Ning Chen was seriously ill and had no medical treatment, and died.

Ning Chen sighed. He only had eight words for the previous owner of this body... pity his misfortune, and be angry at his lack of struggle!

Even rabbits bite when they are forced into a corner, not to mention that they have been forced into a dead end... If it were him, even if he was too weak to lift the knife, he would still poison him and take him away, and no one would think about it.

At this moment, the door opened.

A lame old man in a coarse cloth shorts walked in.

Seeing Ning Chen sitting on the bed, the old man was startled at first, and then his face was full of surprise, and he said: "Fourth Master, are you awake? That's great, that's great..."

This lame old man has been in Ning Mansion for a long time. He was there when Ning Chen came... Others call him Lao Chai, and Ning Chen calls him Uncle Chai.

Uncle Chai is the best person in this mansion to Ning Chen.

Normally, Ning Chen ate leftovers and was often hungry. Uncle Chai saved his own rations for Ning Chen.

"Fourth Young Master, you are still sick, lie down quickly..." Uncle Chai said as he quickly poured a glass of water and brought it over, "Come, Fourth Young Master, drink some water... Are you hungry? I'll be there in a while..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a clang and the door was kicked open.

A domineering young man dressed in brocade rushed in.

Ning Xing, Ning Chen's second brother.

Seeing Ning Chen, Ning Xing immediately pointed at him and yelled, "I knew you were pretending to be sick... Hand over my jade pendant, or I'll beat you to death today."

"Second Young Master, the Fourth Young Master just woke up, let's talk later if you have anything to say?"

Uncle Chai quickly stopped Ning Xing.

Ning Chen had just woken up after a narrow escape from death, and his body was weak, so he couldn't stand Ning Xing's beating.

He had seen Ning Xing beat Ning Chen, and he beat him to death without any restraint.

"Get out of here, you bastard!"

Ning Xing was seventeen years old this year, and he was strong. He kicked Uncle Chai to the ground, pointed at him and cursed: "You bastard, you dare to help this bastard cheat me, I will beat you to death."

Seeing that Ning Xing was about to attack, Ning Chen's eyes sank, but he forced a flattering smile on his face, "Second brother, I'm sorry, I will return the jade pendant to you... Don't be angry!"

Ning Chen said while groping at the head of the bed.

Ning Xing strode over, "I knew that my jade pendant was stolen by you, a bastard... You dare to steal my jade pendant, and you will have a hard time when my father comes back."

Yesterday, after Ning Xing met Ning Chen, he said that his jade pendant was lost, and insisted that it was Ning Chen who stole it, and kept pestering him.

As for whether it was a real loss or a fake loss, only Ning Xing himself knew.

"found it!"

Ning Chen said suddenly, and then stretched out his hand.

Ning Xing stared at Ning Chen's hand, but when Ning Chen opened his hand, his palm was empty.

Ning Xing was startled and before he could react, Ning Chen picked up the porcelain pillow at the head of the bed and hit him hard on the head.

boom!

With a muffled sound, the porcelain pillow shattered.

Ning Xing staggered back a few steps, almost fell down, and suffered a bloody head injury in an instant.

He looked at Ning Chen in disbelief, forgetting to even scream.

Because he couldn't believe that Ning Chen dared to hit him?

In the past, no matter how they bullied them, Ning Chen would never fight back or scold them. Regardless of whether it was Ning Chen's fault or not, in the end, Ning Chen would carefully apologize to them and pray for forgiveness.

Uncle Chai was also shocked!

After a while, Ning Xing finally reacted, let out a scream, pointed at Ning Chen and screamed:

"You dare to hit me? You bastard, how dare you hit me?"

Ning Chen held the fragments of the porcelain pillow in his hand and said coldly: "Not only do I dare to hit you, I also dare to kill you. Do you believe it?"

Ning Xing was frightened by Ning Chen's eyes. He trembled, turned around and ran out, shouting to kill someone.

Uncle Chai got up from the ground and said in panic: "Fourth Young Master, what should we do now...what should we do now?"

Ning Chen looked at Uncle Chai and said nothing.

"Fourth Young Master, are you okay?"

Uncle Chai thought Ning Chen was scared and asked worriedly.

Ning Chen smiled calmly and said, "Uncle Chai, go find more wood, and then get some pine oil."

Uncle Chai didn't know why, but he did it anyway.

Ning Chen got off the bed and staggered... This body had been malnourished for a long time and was recovering from a serious illness, so it was extremely weak.

"Looks like I need to get some good training... The force I hit Ning Xing just now was much weaker than expected."

Ning Chen muttered.
