Chapter 180: Temporary Peace

Peach Demon: She's back so soon?

I could hear Peach's voice, but I couldn't recognize her face.

When the peach demon was with us, she always appeared with He Mengdie's face, and now she has changed her appearance, wearing a blue sermon robe, with a bun on her head, and a delicate face, which has a unique flavor.

The peach demon sat down and raised his hand to pour himself a cup of Erguotou: "Peanuts, pig's head meat, Erguotou, yes, it's a good thing to drink." ”

The peach demon ate a few pieces of pig's head meat in a row, drank another glass of wine and exhaled: "Comfortable, I've been hungry until now, I finally have some food in my stomach." Chen Ye, you didn't break our agreement, did you?"

I poured her another glass of wine: "I'm waiting for your answer. However, for the record, I know the name Witch with a Thousand Faces. ”

Although the Witch with a Thousand Faces is ranked eighth on the hunter list, she is known as the two most mysterious beauties together with Yiyu Tianqing.

In a word, Tianqing never meets with employers.

The Witch with a Thousand Faces is equal to not seeing her, and you don't know if she is wearing a mask, or how many masks she has wrought.

The peach demon chewed a pig's ear: "To put it simply, I also accepted the hiring." However, my employer is not Boss He, but her daughter He Mengdie. He Mengdie spent a lot of money to hire me to pretend to be her, and I persevered until the end of the mission. ”

I couldn't help but frown: "It's that simple?"

"It's as simple as that!" Peach Demon said: "Before I took the task, I also knew a little about the affairs of the He family. I thought that He Mengdie hired me to save herself. After all, it's not uncommon for us to pretend to be an employer to help people avoid robbery. So, I didn't think much of it. Now it seems that this task is far more complicated than I thought. ”

I looked at the peach demon and said, "Aren't you afraid of cause and effect when you help people avoid robbery?"

"You care too much about cause and effect. The peach demon shook his head and said, "When you took over the task of the He family, didn't you also stir yourself into other people's cause and effect? The essence is the same. ”

The peach demon said in a paused voice: "However, then again, the cause and effect of avoiding robbery for others is indeed heavier. So, I want to lie down, are you still short of people? How about counting me in?"

"Welcome, welcome!" Before I could speak, Ye Xuan's mouth opened: "The Mobile Department specializes in recruiting strange people, the price is beautiful, and the treatment is favorable, right, old class?"

Ye Xuan said so, what else can I say? Besides, the peach demon also saved my life, and I have no reason to refuse.

I was just about to nod my head, but everyone in the room frowned and looked in one direction at the same time.

What a heart!

He Ruxin deliberately let us find out his whereabouts, otherwise, he would not have walked to the door to make a move.

"Xiao Qian'er take a cup!" I poured a glass of wine and said: "Wine is not good wine, food is not good food, Boss He does not dislike it, just sit down and have a drink." ”

He Ruxin walked over and took a drink from the wine glass: "When I was young, I soaked in the construction site every day, and I ate and drank about the same as this. ”

Xiao Qian'er stood up and washed a few cucumbers for He Ruxin, He Ruxin picked up the cucumber and took a bite: "I haven't drunk like this for a long time!"

I said lightly, "Should I call you Boss He?" or should I call you the gatekeeper?"

As soon as my voice fell, Ye Xuan and the others showed a guarded affection at the same time.

He Ruxin said: "It's good to call anything, it's just a code name anyway." I am here today to give you an explanation, and second, to say goodbye to you. ”

He Ruxin said slowly: "Back then, when my eldest brother was building a shopping mall, he discovered the secrets in the ancient temple, and gathered a few friends to follow the clues in the temple to find the Temple of Time. My eldest brother built the Wufu Monastery and invested in the quarry, all in order to find the Temple of Time, and it can be regarded as a good effort! They finally found the location of the Temple after spending several years, and they couldn't help but practice the God of Time. But the test of magic also followed. The four partners of the eldest brother were all destroyed because of the magician. ”

I said in a deep voice, "According to you, turning back time and rescuing your loved ones is the first test of divine art?

He Ruxin nodded and said, "You're right." Divine art itself has no spirituality, but practicing divine magic is tantamount to usurping the fate of mortals. The test of divine art is more like a divine punishment. Mortals who covet the inheritance of the gods must be punished. Those who are close to you are the first punishment of the gods. ”

Xiao Qian'er whispered to herself: "Could it be that Uncle Tie locked Tie Danzi in the house to avoid divine punishment?"

He Ruxin looked at Xiao Qian'er and said, "You're talking about Tie Hao, right? He is indeed the first person to accept God's punishment." He was not sure that he would survive the divine punishment, so he had to seal his son in an airtight house in order to prevent the divine punishment from coming. ”

He Ruxin didn't explain it carefully, but I could roughly guess what secret technique Tie Hao used.

The Book of Luban records that the secret arts are all related to civil engineering, and the people who practice the Book of Luban are divided into many branches, and the way of practice is different. As far as I know, confinement of the employer in a house where evil can be kept at bay is one of the ways in which some warlocks are used to putting people in coffins. Tie Hao sealed the iron egg in the house at that time just to block the divine magic.

He Ruxin continued: "Tie Hao can be said to be the person with the highest cultivation among the five civil warlocks, but his secret skills are vulnerable in front of the gods. After he buried his child, he went to the temple. As a result, he himself died in the temple. Then, one by one, they died under divine punishment. After my eldest brother ran back desperately and told me everything, the people followed. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be curious: "What method did you use to protect He Mengdie for ten years?"

"Mengdie has long been dead!" He Ruxin shook his head and said: "My eldest brother sent back the news, but Mengdie did not escape the divine punishment. It's just that Mengdie died abroad, and no one except me knows that Mengdie is gone. ”

He Ruxin said: "Later, He Mengdie was just an orphan I adopted. Because she looks so similar to Dream Butterfly, I made a deal with her. I give her, everything she wants, and she will play He Mengdie. ”

Xiao Qian'er couldn't help but say when she heard this: "No wonder He Mengdie can escape death every time, it turns out that she has no blood relationship with the He family at all, and the divine punishment naturally can't fall on her head." ”

I stared at He Ruxin and said, "You also want magic skills!"

"That's right!" He Ruxin did not deny: "Although Mengdie is dead, I am constantly hiring a master of magic to protect her stand-in. In order to let them discover the secrets of the ancient temple and practice divine arts. ”

He Ruxin said: "At that time, I myself was half a warlock! However, my cultivation was not enough to comprehend divine arts. I couldn't find a warlock I could trust to help me practice. ”

The truth of guilt is still understood. If he had come up with the secret technique, he might have been a dead man by this time.

He Ruxin said: "I thought about it for a long time before I came up with an extremely dangerous solution. That is to pretend that they don't know anything, hire a warlock to protect Dream Butterfly's stand-in, and then let them discover the secrets of the ancient temple. ”

"At the beginning, my eldest brother designed and built the mall, and no one knows the mall and the ancient temple better than me. So, I opened a cafeteria near the ancient temple in someone else's name. Redesigned everything about the restaurant. Let the entire ancient temple be under my surveillance all the time, as long as someone comes into contact with the ancient temple, they must hide in it and practice, all I do is just wait to see it. ”

He Ruxin paused unconsciously when he said this: "The first person I hired was Zhang Yuanlong, but I found that he couldn't understand the magic arts, so I started to hire other warlocks." I think you probably already know the rest of the story. What I want to say is that after Zhang Yuanlong and the five of them got together, things were out of my control. There are some things I can't do anymore. ”

He Ruxin shouldn't be lying, Zhang Yuanlong and the five of them are all the best among the warlocks, they get together, He Ruxin is definitely not an opponent, he can keep his secret from being discovered has reached the limit, and he naturally doesn't dare to act rashly when it comes to other things.

I said in a deep voice: "He Mengdie...... What's going on with He Mengdie hiring the peach demon?"

He Ruxin shook his head and said, "People! After experiencing something for too long, some other thoughts will always pop up." That girl has other thoughts. She hired someone to pretend to be herself, in fact, to create evidence of her alibi, so that no one would hold her accountable if I died. She will naturally inherit the He family's estate. She didn't expect that I could save myself with the magic of time. ”

He Mengdie's stand-in must be dead.

I heard the killing intent in He Ruxin's words.

He Ruxin said: "I didn't expect that the self-help that time I didn't plan would actually make my divine skills reach the third realm. ”

According to He Ruxin's statement, passing the test of saving people through divine magic can be regarded as reaching the second realm, and passing the test of self-salvation should be the third realm.

If he has no loved ones in his heart, he is equivalent to passing the first test, and after saving himself, he jumped to the third realm.

He Ruxin said: "After I inadvertently reached the third realm, I was actually able to open the door of the temple. But by then, things were far beyond my control. I didn't expect that the task of the He family would become a game between the sect and the Dao of Arts. ”

"The Temple, it's vital to me, and I can't let any of you win. Whoever wins this game, I won't be able to get the full time magic. I'm just going to have to take the fire. ”

I lit a cigarette and said, "You calculate both of us, I can understand that." What I don't understand is, why are you saving me?"
