Mu Qingyang stepped on the Jiuqu Bridge again, and he was apologizing the most sincerely to the municipal engineering contractor team for his mistake.

I have to say that he, a demon clan, is naturally noble but always has very humane feelings, even if sometimes he can't tell what kind of attitude he has towards the people and things around him.

This monster who has lived as a human for more than 20 years, he has been caught in a deep contradiction because of whether to accept what the bloodline brings, and the impact of this thought has led to his actions being a little different from that of humans and monsters, full of chaotic feelings, and more attention to the attitude of everyone around him towards him, so he cherishes every friend who gives him help, which is why he now wants to continue to hunt down the demon for the two Impermanent God Monarchs at any cost. In his heart, it was a promise to his friend, and it was the source of motivation for him to be able to do so.

In fact, since he changed his name, it originally meant that he was subtly still slowly accepting the identity brought by his bones, and this finally chosen name actually had a certain meaning - Mu Qingyang's intention was to remind himself that he still had a girlfriend who loved him missing, and its homonym came from Mu Qingyang, which means Yang Lu, who always loves Mu Qingqing, or this is the reason why he really chose this pseudonym.

……

In fact, there are inevitably some accidents in the construction, and the foreman will naturally not treat him as a temporary worker, but because when he proposed to resign, the foreman also sincerely retained him, and always saw that he was indeed determined to stay with him and drink a drink.

On the way back to the hotel, Mu Qingyang was so worried that he didn't even react when he hit someone, and he didn't find out until the person lost his balance and fell. hurriedly ran over to help the other party, only to find out that it was the madman on the bridge.

To say that when he met this crazy old man again, Mu Qingyang's eyes couldn't help but have a trace of sympathy. In fact, he didn't need to be reminded, he guessed just by intuition that this person must have some connection with those water ghosts. Later, it turned out that he did not guess wrong, the old man's surname is Jiang, but he can't actually be regarded as an old man, it's just that too many things have happened recently, and he hasn't rested well to make him look haggard and old, and responsibly said that his actual age is only in his forties.

Jiang Sihai, a contractor with more than ten years of experience in bridge building, can say that the big river and big waves have passed through an unknown number, but he has planted a big heel in a small project in a small P county. The fourth uncle, who had been following him, died here, becoming a delicious meal for the water demon.

When someone asked afterwards, Jiang Sihai swore that he did it in strict accordance with the traditional ritual of worshiping the river god, of course, he didn't lie, and there was no need to lie, he just didn't find a small problem in the link, the so-called river god he worships every day, the real face is just a water demon who has never been sacrificed, it is used to acting according to instinct, and it will not stick to any rules.

Mu Qingyang spent some effort to help Jiang Sihai regain his senses, this depends on his better eye technique, a little hypnotization This weather-beaten middle-aged man experienced a dream-like past again, and his eyes gradually became clear.

"Thank you! I think I'm much better now. Boss Jiang nodded at Mu Qingyang, this young man who made him recover had a special temperament, and he could see at a glance that this benefactor's ability was by no means just that. Out of the shrewdness of a businessman, he immediately decided to tell the other party about the confusion that had happened at home for a long time, and when he saw Mu Qingyang bowing his head and pondering silently, Jiang Sihai knew that he had made the right bet this time.

"It's just a handy ......" Mu Qingyang was still thinking about what happened at Jiang Sihai's house.

On the outskirts of F City, Province F, here is a beautiful place called Shanyu Town.

The Jiang family is a big family in the local area, and since the grandfather's generation, their family has lived here for nearly a hundred years. The ancestor of the family was originally from fishing and some ancient customs were left behind, so Jiang Sihai himself is more traditional, and this habit has naturally brought into his life, or he is a more superstitious traditional Chinese.

This year's Jiang family doesn't know if the year is unfavorable, both at work and at home are full of ups and downs. First of all, the wife at home was inexplicably infected with hysteria, hiding in the room all day long and refusing to even meet the children, even if she came out occasionally, she was hiding in the dark and motionless, and her eyes were always vicious; Then Jiang Sihai also had an accident when he was contracting work in other places, and the fourth uncle of his clan who had been following him also threw his life outside, and finally didn't even bring back a corpse.

When the first day of October, Jiang Sihai decided to go to the Ziyun Temple not far from the town, and on the fifteenth day of the first month, it is the old habit of many people in the town to burn incense to burn incense and pray for blessings.

"Lao Jiang, rush to the market?" Someone on the road greeted him politely.

Lao Jiang often encounters these things, and now this is the way of the world -- "no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains", snobbery is a common disease for most people, and the social atmosphere is like this, and he is helpless.

Uh-huh, ahhhh Hurriedly invited a few pillars of incense in the temple, respectfully inserted three kowtows in front of the statue, Lao Jiang looked around and saw the master Jiang Daoxuan, and hurriedly ran forward to say hello to the old man. This is one of his own uncles, it is said that he was in poor health since he was a child, and he was accepted as a disciple by the old master and left home, but he has always taken good care of his own family in his later life, so every time he comes to Lao Jiang, he will leave some incense money to help him.

"Your complexion is not good, is there something wrong with your family?" Jiang Daoxuan saw that Lao Jiang's face was very ugly, and he couldn't help but ask casually.

"Second uncle, I'm here to tell you about it this time...... That one...... My fourth uncle passed away. Lao Jiang said in a huff.

"Fourth...... Alas! I thought he would have escaped this...... Well, don't hide it...... Did he die in a foreign land? ”

"Yes." Lao Jiang immediately lowered his head, he felt guilty about this matter. He knew that the old Dao of the Immortal Wind Dao bone in front of him was a capable person, so he didn't dare to hide it, so he told the story in detail.

"Alas! Heaven can do evil, but you can't live if you do it yourself...... Your fourth uncle had just made a few mistakes when he was young, and I kept persuading him to add a name to the temple so as to accumulate good fortune for him, but how do you know that this person just doesn't listen...... Actually, there is nothing wrong with becoming a monk, if you listen to me, you may be able to avoid this difficulty. Jiang Dao Xuanxu muttered a few words, and suddenly asked: "Sihai, I see that your face is covered with black clouds, but it's not just this thing, right?" ”

"Then there's your niece and daughter-in-law, who fell ill when she came back from her mother's house at the end of last month. I don't go out at home all day, and I don't talk every day as if I've changed a person...... Later, the child quietly came to see her and told me that she was cowering in the corner alone and jumped the child...... I invited the doctor to come and see it, but I only said that there was no way to have hysteria, and I was really sad to death! With a sad face, Jiang Sihai's eyebrows were twisted into a big pimple, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"Why don't I go over and have a look?" Jiang Daoxuan asked.

"That's what I meant." Jiang Sihai rubbed his hands together and took out a wad of money in his pocket......

In the main hall, the temple Zhu immediately ran over and sang loudly: "The donor is generous, the emperor is above, bless the safety of the house, all the best, the children and grandchildren are blessed, and the life is long......"

Jiang Daoxuan couldn't laugh or cry, this nephew was so generous every time he came back, and even the apprentices in this Taoist temple were used to singing eulogies. However, he also knew that it was the filial piety of the little generation, and he felt a little sorry for him, but he didn't say anything, but only made up his mind to go to the evil by the way when he saw his daughter-in-law later, and he couldn't let the family suffer.

Jiang Daoxuan brought a few handfuls of herbs, together with those things that he usually used, and put a burden on Jiang Sihai's back, and led out of the gate. The old man is over fifty years old this year, and he has practiced for most of his life, not only the Taoist rituals, but also some of the medical Tao, which is why Jiang Sihai has so much respect for this second uncle that he specially came to invite him.

The wind whistled by, the big plaque at the entrance of the view staggered and collapsed half from above, Jiang Sihai just walked over, suddenly heard a click, the big sign fell on the ground and finally fell down and broke into two......

"Ahh

Seeing the debris all over the ground, the uncle and nephew looked a little surprised.

"Second uncle, why don't we talk about it another day?" Jiang Sihai was a little apprehensive, this situation was not a good sign.

After counting with his fingers for a long time, Jiang Daoxuan still couldn't do it, hesitated for a moment and saw that his nephew still hadn't changed his mind in the end.

He sighed and said, "Maybe it's just a coincidence, you don't have to think too much...... Your family can't delay this matter, after all, human life is at stake...... It's a big deal! "This old man has been obedient to his fate all his life, and this time for the sake of his family, he gritted his teeth and let it go......

All the way, I rushed to Jiang's house to have lunch. The Jiang family is relatively wealthy, and the living environment here will naturally not be bad. This courtyard is completely designed by Jiang Sihai, the style is more traditional, it is an antique two-entry old-fashioned courtyard set, the main hall house and the left and right wings in the courtyard are the appearance of the Chinese-style tile house with carved beams and paintings, and the cement pouring structure used for the main body not only ensures the safety but also does not lose the classical style; From the cloister to the backyard of the house, there are the same dozen quiet rooms, the same pavilions, rockeries and flowing waters, and the landscaping of rockery and flowing water, which makes people feel that there is a deep inheritance of a large family as soon as they enter it.

"Sihai, your house is much more beautiful than the previous decoration, look at this courtyard, it's almost time to catch up with the Suzhou garden." Jiang Daoxuan patted the red lacquer pillar at the door, glanced at the tall foyer inside, and said with emotion.

"Second uncle, look at your politeness, isn't this our own home? Let's talk about it first. Jiang Sihai was a little embarrassed, he liked these garden designs and the like in his life, and he also came in to decorate after making some money. He knew that the second uncle was bitter in the Taoist temple, and invited him to live at home for a period of time several times, but this old man always couldn't let go of the things left by the master, and always politely declined this kindness.

"Let's eat first, I've already said hello to my family. You see...... Didn't my parents come out to pick you up? ”

Jiang Daoxuan saw that it was his cousin and sister-in-law who came out in person, and hurriedly hurried a few steps to greet him. Looking at the rich appearance of the old couple, he couldn't help but flatter happily: "Big brother, you and your sister-in-law are blessed!" ”

"Dao Xuan, are you willing to come to the house to have a look? I've asked you a few times to let you come to live, and this house is ready for you, and you don't come ......."

In front of these two people, Dao Xuan is not a master in the world, he is the little brother who ran around back then, so he always speaks a little less polite and a little affectionate.

When everyone arrived in the hall and sat down, Dao Xuan looked around and suddenly asked, "Why does this house feel a little deserted?" The words blurted out made the faces of the whole family change color suddenly, and the scene suddenly felt a little strange.

"Second uncle, my two brothers have moved out." Jiang Sihai said for a long time.

Jiang Sihai has four brothers and sisters, he is the eldest, and there are two younger brothers and one younger sister in turn. Originally, except for the little sister who married out of town, the three brothers and their families all lived together, and they were usually very harmonious and lively. But since the eldest daughter-in-law got a strange disease, the two concubines didn't know who they heard that the yard was not clean, so they each quarreled to let the second and third children of the Jiang family move out and live separately, after all, the old couple was still old, so they didn't stop it, plus the eldest child's children usually go to boarding private schools, so a big family that everyone envied became lonely overnight.

After listening to the old couple nagging for a while, Jiang Daoxuan stood up and asked Jiang Sihai to lead the way to see the patient's condition.

The two of them walked through the corridor to the entrance of the backyard, and Jiang Daoxuan frowned.

"Sihai, did your family kill pigs in the back today?"

"No? What's wrong......" Jiang Sihai was stunned for a moment, and looked at Jiang Daoxuan's fingers as he spoke, only to see that the ground was covered with blood, and he couldn't help but gasp: "This...... I don't know that, huh? ”

"Don't scream! Be quiet, come with me. The old man put his shirt around his waist and tucked it around his waist, (he was wearing a Taoist robe) and pulled out a sword out of nowhere, bent down and walked all the way down the corner of the backyard along the bloodstains.

Jiang Sihai didn't dare to make a sound, he only followed quietly, he felt his eyelids jumping, and his heart was also panicked, and he had a premonition that there was great danger waiting for them in front of him. Unconsciously shrank back, picked up a thick wooden stick from the corner of the wall and held it in his hand, and then he was a little more settled.

From far and near, the sound of a rope came from behind the corner, as if something was rubbing against the ground, and as if something had passed by and brought the sound of dead branches and leaves.

Jiang Daoxuan put the sword behind his back, and the whole person stuck to the corner of the wall and looked out......

I saw that the body of the thickness of the bucket was slowly wriggling, and I looked at it - it was a giant python in front of me!

The silver-white head swayed from side to side on the ground, a bloody mouth had been opened to the limit, the throat was constantly stretched open, a lamb was swallowed the back half of the body, the two front legs were still twitching, and from time to time touched the dead branches and leaves on the ground, making a rattling sound.

A pair of green lights flickered, and the corner of the snake's eyes suddenly saw Jiang Daoxuan in the corner of the wall, his eyes flashed a fierce color, and the whole person stood up, and the sheep body in the mouth couldn't get rid of it for a while, but it was upside down on the top of the head, and it looked like a monster with a snake tail and a sheep body from a distance!

The strange python saw Jiang Daoxuan holding a sword, and knew that it was not good, but the mouth hooked the food, and the one who couldn't swallow or spit out was just hissing in a hurry, and at a glance saw the sharp anti-theft iron drill on the glazed tile at the head of the wall, and slammed his head against the wall in a hurry, shaking his whole body, closing his mouth up and down, hanging and pulling, and throwing it outward, left and right......

I saw that the red light appeared, and the little lamb suddenly fell apart into a rain of blood, and there was already a red mist in front of the two people in the corner, and the dizzy and bloody breath came to the nose! Jiang Daoxuan was caught off guard, and just then he picked up the sword and was about to rush over, but he was stunned by this sudden scene, and before he could react, the giant snake had already fled quickly along the corner of the wall, and disappeared in a blink of an eye......
