Chapter 237: Testing

"Really?" The promise still looks like I don't believe it!

"Really!" I nodded affirmatively.

Old Man Xu looked at me, then at Xu Promise, and suddenly laughed.

"Xiaonuo, you go and help your grandmother wash the vegetables. I'll have a chat with Zhang Yimeng! "Old man Xu obviously wants to take away the promise and talk to me alone.

Xu Promise's cheeks suddenly turned red for some reason, she gave me a quick look, and then ran to the kitchen with an "oh"!

Old Man Xu stood up with a smile, "Zhang Yimeng, is it convenient to go to the study with me to sit down?" ”

Where can I say no!

"Good!" I nodded and followed the old man to the study.

"You are Lin Xi!" After entering the study, the old man said straight to the point.

I was stunned, then laughed. He was able to see Huang Si'er attached to me, and naturally he knew who I was.

"Yes!" I graciously admit it.

My generous admission made the old man slightly stunned, and soon he smiled approvingly: "I like your honesty very much!" ”

"In front of my grandfather, I don't dare to deceive anything!" I patted the old man's ass at the right time.

The old man walked over to his desk and sat down, and pointed to the chair across from him, motioning for me to sit down as well.

"I can arrange a new identity for you, and no one can find out. Your master should be helping the people of the Ministry of State Security now, right? Although the old man was asking me, his tone was very affirmative.

I smiled and nodded, "I can't hide anything from Grandpa!" ”

The smile on the old man's face suddenly disappeared, and he looked at me with a calm and serious face, "Lin Xi, you have an important task to come to Rongcheng in a different way!" ”

Can I still have a secret in front of this old man?

I sighed inwardly.

"When a family is too powerful and threatens national security, the country will definitely eliminate harm for the people! This Zhong family, who has done so many bad things, has finally come to the time of the present world! The old man chuckled, although he didn't explicitly say that my task was to deal with the Zhong family, but the meaning of the words was already obvious.

I just watched him quietly and didn't answer.

The old man also sighed, "The Ministry of State Security sent you to fight the first battle, and it is also to take advantage of your grudge with the Zhong family. The Zhong family is flourishing in Rongcheng, in addition to the eight imperial spirit level onmyoji, the old man of the Zhong family is an emperor-level onmyoji. If you confront them head-on, it will be difficult to get out again! ”

I was a little moved in my heart, the old man's words were to persuade me not to be easily used by others.

I smiled and said, "Grandpa, thank you!" It's just that my grudge with the Zhong family has reached an endless state. If you can take revenge and eliminate harm for the country, what if you are taken advantage of! ”

"I'm afraid it's ...... When you get your revenge, they'll be the ones they're going to deal with! The old man's brows furrowed, and there was a deep worry in his eyes.

"This will have to wait until I get revenge!" I shrugged my shoulders indifferently, and when I got revenge, I would find a place to hide, and it was not so easy for them to find me.

"Did you get into any trouble when you came here today?" The old man sighed and changed the subject.

"Yes!" I nodded and told Jiang Meihong about the coffin.

"Four years ago, I found out that there was an inexplicable gathering of yin qi in the mountain behind Qingcheng, and the yin qi disappeared after it was transmitted to the sky above C University! But Xiaonuo and I searched many times in the mountains behind Qingcheng, but we didn't see any artificial formations. ”

"I wanted to see where this yin qi had disappeared, so I stayed in Rongcheng with Xiaonuo, and let Xiaonuo be admitted to C University. But in the past four years, we haven't found any clues. Until some time ago, Xiao Nuo told me that you found that someone had set up a Yin Gathering Array in the mountains behind Qingcheng. I just understood! ”

"There should be more than one coffin you are talking about. With so much yin qi, it is impossible to raise only one yin coffin. It's just that they use a coffin to raise a female corpse, or a pregnant woman's corpse, I can't think of what their purpose is! Could it be that a certain high-strength onmyoji of the Zhong family suddenly died, leaving such a posthumous son? And the child's mother had an accident because of some accident. In order to keep this child, did the Zhong family use the taboo technique of raising a ghost fetus? ”

The old man is just guessing, after all, he is a Taoist priest and not an onmyoji, and he doesn't fully understand the methods of an onmyoji.

"I'll investigate this matter again and see what the purpose of the Zhong family is! Let's go around the school and see if there are any similar coffins! Remember, you must not startle the snake when you act, and don't let the Zhong family know that you have discovered the Yin Coffin! The old man sternly admonished.

I knew that this matter was important, and nodded solemnly, "Grandpa, don't worry, I know!" ”

"Hmm!" The old man also nodded, turned around and took out a yellow talisman from the bookcase in the back and handed it to me.

I looked at the old man in a daze, not understanding what he meant.

"Let me see how far you've got!" The old man's hand shook and motioned for me to take the yellow talisman.

Only then did I realize that the old man was going to fight with me to test the depth of my Taoism!

I respectfully took the yellow talisman, sandwiched it between my middle finger and index finger, shook my hands together and concentrated my mental power, and shouted softly, "Break!" ”

The crisp sound of "bang ......" sounded, and the rune paper in my hand had turned into shards and landed on my lap.

The old man's eyes lit up, and he took a yellow talisman from the bookcase and handed it to me.

I took the yellow talisman and continued to concentrate on breaking the talisman.

The "Bang ......" rune paper exploded again, this time with much more force than the previous one.

The old man looked surprised, turned around and took out another yellow talisman from the bookcase.

I don't have to guess that I know that the blessing of the mind on this yellow talisman must be more than the previous two.

I didn't dare to be slack, I took the yellow rune and concentrated my mental power, and sure enough, this rune paper was much stronger than the first two. I focused most of my mental power on it, and with a strong shock, the yellow talisman cracked in response to the sound.

However, it did not break into pieces, but only into five or six pieces.

"Not bad! Not bad! The old man nodded again and again, took out a piece of cut gold table paper from the cabinet, and took out a cinnabar pen.

As soon as I saw his posture, I knew that he was going to draw a new rune paper to test my Taoism.

While the old man was drawing talismans, I also closed my pranayama to replenish the mental power I had just used.

"Zhang Yimeng, you come to explode this talisman and try it!" After a few moments, the old man stopped his pen and handed me the talisman paper he had drawn.

I took the rune paper and looked at it, it was a thunder rune. This rune paper is much more difficult to draw than the previous three rune papers, and it requires a lot more mental power. It seems that the old man has high expectations for my Taoism!
