Ancient Exorcist (1)

The author has something to say:

Your Majesty, come and pay your respects to the Queen Mother of Sixteen Thousand Five.

In the new world, I plan to hold it in and let Nagasawa show off. My foreshadowing is very obvious. Some angels may have already guessed it. Hahahahaha.

In the last world, I forgot about the setting of Nagasawa's plan to sell Dragon Vein, and the subsequent plot couldn't be connected. I found a bug today and changed the plot. There were modifications in the eighth and last chapters of the previous world. I'm interested. You can go and see the little angel~

I can also explain it clearly in one sentence: [Nagaze used himself as a body to protect the remaining soul in the dragon egg. Then when everything was settled and his cultivation level was sufficient, he instilled all his cultivation level into the dragon egg to raise him before leaving the world. The little dragon came out of his soul, and then used Ascension Express to express the little dragon to the arms of his parents (yes, this is nonsense, but this is already the most perfect solution I thought of without affecting the main plot)]

When he woke up this time, his whole body was burning. It was obvious that the original owner was ill. Ji Changze opened his eyes slightly and saw a kind-hearted old lady stretching out a wet handkerchief to wipe his forehead to cool down.

Although the old lady was dressed in tatters, she was clean and her hair was neatly combed and tied back with a wooden stick.

"How's it going? Is it feeling better?"

Seeing that he woke up, the old lady was obviously relieved, straightened up and said, "Why did you drink so much wine and scare the children?"

Although her tone was concerned, it was not very affectionate, and she was even a little polite in it. It didn't sound like someone who was related to this body. But the house was so dilapidated, and the original owner must not have the money to hire anyone to take care of it. It was not a relative. , not hired, so who?

Ji Changze was about to mumble over and lie down to check his memory. The door curtain opened and a young woman walked in. She glanced at him with a complicated look and then whispered to the old lady: "Mom, it's the rainy season these days. My husband's body is... If you’re not happy, you’ll naturally need to drink more wine to warm yourself up. Don’t worry, you’ve been busy all day, so go and rest.”

The old lady opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw the determination on her daughter's face, she sighed and got up and walked out: "It's still early, why should I rest? I've made hot soup outside. I'll go check on the fire. I'll wait for a while." Ze can feel better after drinking the soup and going to sleep.”

After she went out, the woman sat beside the bed and continued what the old lady had done before. She took the no longer cold handkerchief and soaked it in the basin, then wring it out and put it back on Ji Changze's forehead.

His movements are quick and his words are soft and gentle:

"I know you are not happy that Miss Zhou is getting married, but you don't want to drink so much wine. It will be scary if you drink too much. I'm okay, but Yuan'er was very scared today."

Ji Changze didn't know the situation, so he just pretended to be weak, closed his eyes again, and looked like he had fallen asleep again.

Seeing him like this, the woman pursed her lips slightly and said no more. She just tucked him in with the quilt and then left quietly with the wooden basin.

As soon as she left, Ji Changze immediately accepted the memory.

After reading it, I couldn’t help but call the original owner a scumbag.

This is an ancient world. The original owner was born in a small village. To the villagers, his father's family is a wealthy family in the village. They live in a blue-tiled house and have five times more fields than the villagers. The family can afford to buy cattle and hire employees. They are a landlord who is a thoroughly enviable family.

As the only child in a landlord's family, the original owner was naturally pampered by the whole family and grew up. Although the "luxury" life he experienced was nothing to the richer families in the city, it was nothing to the poor villagers. , enough for them to look up to.

His family was rich, his parents loved him, all the children in the village fawned over him, and he even had a beautiful fiancée.

The original owner who grew up in this kind of situation developed a temperament of "God is the boss, the earth is the second child, and I am the third child". Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. He had been in poor health since he was a child. He suffered a serious illness when he was thirteen years old. No matter how "rich" the parents were, they were only compared to the poor villagers. A serious illness wiped out all the savings of the original owner's family.

In the end, it even came to the point of selling the house and the land. Misfortunes never come singly. The original owner's father wanted to work in the city to earn money for his son's medicine, but there happened to be an epidemic in the city. He contracted the disease and also infected it with the original owner's mother who took care of him.

Only the original owner, who was ill and did not go to see his father who came back from the city, escaped.

Unfortunately, although his life was saved, both his parents died together, and the originally wealthy family became impoverished due to his illness. If the villagers had not saved their own food rations to take care of him, the original owner, who was not giving birth and was still weak, would have starved to death. .

The parents of the original owner were indeed good people. Although the family was rich when they were alive, they did not feel superior to others like the original owner. They also took good care of the villagers, and the villagers reciprocated. After the original owner's family collapsed, not only did they not add insult to injury, He also worked hard to help take care of the original owner.

It's a pity that the original owner did not repay the kindness like the villagers. Instead of feeling grateful to these villagers, he felt that these people should treat him like this because his parents took care of these people when they were alive.

They don't know how much money they got from his parents. Now just giving him some food is not enough. He said that each of these people should chip in some money to give him so that he can start a new family business.

The original owner had studied in school after all. Although he thought so in his heart, he also knew that the villagers would not be happy to hear this, so he only felt angry in his heart every day.

In the eyes of the villagers, the original owner was getting more and more gloomy day by day, and he didn't even smile at those who helped him. Although they didn't like such an original owner, they didn't hate him either. After all, think about it when you were a child, how can a person with a declining family be in a good mood.

But from time to time, they would still persuade the original owner to find a job as soon as possible. He could read and find a job much better than those who couldn't read. It would not work to stay at home like this, not making money, and relying on others for help.

They could save their own food rations to help a child for the sake of his parents, but it was impossible for them to help an adult who had the ability to make money for a lifetime.

If he continued to do nothing like this, I'm afraid he would have a hard time in the future.

The villagers were all kind-hearted, but the original owner didn't think so at all.

In his heart, these words persuading him to find a job translated into: We don't want to support you anymore.

He was indignant in his heart, but he couldn't find a reason to ask these people to support him for a lifetime, so he could only find another way out.

He was so destitute that his fiancée's family, who had originally been attracted by his family background, came to cancel the engagement. His fiancée, Zhou Xiaoniang, had learned to read books and learn to read since she was a child because the original owner's parents had mentioned that they hoped their future daughter-in-law could read. She knew shame and knew what she could and could not do.

Her family got married when the original owner's family was the richest, and then canceled the engagement when the other party was poor. What they did was really unacceptable to her.

Zhou Xiaoniang tried her best to resist the cancellation of the engagement, but unfortunately her identity in the family was just a girl used to exchange resources for her brothers. She was beaten and locked up at home, watching the marriage being cancelled.

She still refused to accept what her parents did. When she was released, she ran to find the original owner and told him clearly that she was unwilling to cancel the engagement. Since they were engaged at the beginning, they were engaged. He was not wrong, and her family could not cancel the engagement.

What Zhou Xiaoniang meant was to let the original owner take her directly to the county government office to sign a marriage certificate. He had no betrothal gift, and she had no dowry. The two of them would become husband and wife, with simple meals and simple food. Although they lived a poor life, they were both adults with hands and feet. She could copy books, and the original owner could go to the town to find a job as an accountant. As time went by, things would get better.

If it were any normal man, he would probably be grateful for Zhou Xiaoniang's kindness at this moment.

Unfortunately, the original owner was not normal.

He did not think at all that "Zhou Xiaoniang wanted to marry him because their engagement could not be cancelled without reason", but firmly believed that Zhou Xiaoniang must have fallen in love with him.

After all, he was so outstanding, and he was the most handsome in the village, so it was reasonable for the young ladies to fall in love with him.

However, it was too much for her to ask him to work after marriage.

How could he be a person who could do hard and tiring work?

The original owner thought helplessly: Although Zhou Xiaoniang is not bad looking, it's a pity that her requirements are too high, and the family doesn't have much money to let him rely on his parents, but her appearance is okay, although he can't marry her back as a wife, he can be a confidante.

So, he first stabilized Zhou Xiaoniang and said that he would go out to find a job, and we will discuss it after he comes back.

In fact, he planned to rely on his appearance and talent to hang around in the places where rich people live in the city, to see if there is any good-looking young lady who likes him and makes him a son-in-law of a rich family.

Unfortunately, he thought too much.

The young ladies of rich families are surrounded by servants when they go out, let alone meet a foreign man like him, they can't even see him.

He wandered around for three months, and when Zhou Xiaoniang had only a little of his savings left, he encountered robbers on the way back. Those people didn't kill him, but took away all the money. In the end, the original owner could only walk back on his own.

That year he was seventeen years old, and after returning, he fell seriously ill again.

The village chief knocked on doors from house to house to collect money, and managed to save the person, but his body was weaker than before, and the original owner didn't want to work, so he took this excuse and lay in bed all day, enjoying the villagers' meals.

After a long time, the villagers couldn't stand it.

The original owner was not a very smart person, and he didn't hide the fact that he didn't feel grateful to them very well. Many people saw it and felt cold in their hearts.

They could tolerate a child who was ignorant and ungrateful, but they couldn't tolerate an adult like this.

At the age of seventeen, you can get married and have children in the village. The gratitude to the original owner's parents in the heart was diluted little by little by the lack of thanks for the care they received year after year. Now, only a tiny bit is left.

The elders still remember the kindness of the original owner's parents, but the younger generations don't have such a deep memory. Seeing that the original owner is the same age as themselves, but doesn't try to support himself, and relies on their parents for support so confidently, how can they bear it?

So, a quarrel occurred.

The village youth who was the same age as the original owner could not help but point at his nose and scold him when the original owner asked to eat the only old hen in his family.

The original owner was so angry that his face turned blue, but he could not say a word of rebuttal, because every word the other party said was true. He could only look ugly and finally said, "In the future, I will not ask for a grain of rice from you."

This sentence can be translated as:

Today you look down on me, tomorrow I will make you out of reach.

Yes, the original owner is so confident.

As one of the few literate people in the village, good-looking, and a "rich second generation" when he was a child, he felt that he was a different kind of fireworks in the village, and he could go to the sky anytime and anywhere.

Unfortunately, he was different, but he couldn't go to the sky.

Ji Changze has a lot to say about this.

Don't look at his photographic memory. He can think of solutions to many things by just thinking about them in his mind.

But these are not innate.

Photographic memory is a memory method he figured out by himself. There is a similar method in the world, and the name seems to be [Memory Palace]. Memorize by marking landmarks. As long as you remember, you will never forget it in this life.

And Ji Changze's biggest advantage is that he has enough time as a tasker.

Maybe a hundred years is not enough for him to remember the content at a glance, but two hundred years, three hundred years, five hundred years.

When he first started doing the task, his brain could rest except when he slept, and there was no time for him to stop and think and repeatedly train his memory.

No one is born knowing everything, even a real genius.

Even though he is able to handle any world he goes to now, these are all based on the fact that he learned new skills as soon as he found an opportunity in his previous world.

Isn't learning hard and tiring? When he didn't know the shortcut to changing his spiritual root talent, he could only train day after day, and was exhausted and sweating. Isn't it hard?

That's definitely impossible.

But Ji Changze knows one thing clearly, no matter how hard or tired he is, what he has learned is himself.

Isn't it the same for ordinary people who only have a short life of a hundred years?

If you can live like a salted fish, I'm afraid most people will not be willing to endure the hardship, but life is like this, unless you are a rich second generation whose parents have made it clear that you don't need to learn skills, otherwise, if you want to have a good life, you must make the same or even multiple efforts.

Can a salted fish life be reborn into a rich second generation? No.

According to Ji Changze's experience in so many worlds, most rich second generations have to learn much more than many ordinary people, and they still have to work hard.

For Ji Changze, his knowledge is enough to guarantee his sense of security. If the system suddenly disappears one day, he can still live well in various worlds with his own ability.

And like the original owner, he doesn't want to make efforts, but wants to get results.

It's enough to say that he is daydreaming.

But he has no self-awareness. He doesn't try to fill his knowledge, nor does he take care of his current livelihood. He can't even eat enough, but his mind is still full of YY.

He never thought of marrying Zhou Xiaoniang. Zhou Xiaoniang is beautiful and is the wife his parents found for him, but her family is poor, and her parents are partial to her brothers. After getting married, he can't get any benefits at all.

The original owner wanted to find a rich and beautiful lady.

But he couldn't find the ladies from the city, and the people in the mountain valleys were all poor. Just as he was watching the rice jar empty day by day, he was angry that those people were really ungrateful and didn't give him food and drink, and at the same time he was thinking about how to live a happy and wealthy life, a mother and daughter moved into the mountain valley.

When they first came, although their clothes were not very rich and the materials looked ordinary, they were different from the villagers in every gesture.

In the words of the villagers, they had a noble air.

They didn't look like ordinary people, but more like the legendary noble family.

At that time, the mother of the mother and daughter had a minor illness and stayed in the village. Maybe because she lived well, she asked the village chief to buy land and rented an old house from a villager. It seemed that she planned to settle here.

But even so, the villagers whispered that they were from a rich family. Let's not talk about anything else, just say that the hairpin on the young woman's head looked different from the jade sold in the town, and it was transparent and full of the breath of money.

The original owner also had an idea after hearing this.

Later, when he heard that the mother had started looking for a matchmaker to arrange a marriage for her daughter, the original owner made a prompt decision and took out the little money left to give to the matchmaker, asking her to help him make this marriage.

Among a group of simple and honest villagers who only knew how to thank the matchmaker for the gift but didn't know how to make arrangements in advance, the original owner stood out and successfully won the beauty with his appearance that was still quite impressive and the money he showed the matchmaker.

He was so excited that he thought he had boarded the big ship of a rich family.

Unfortunately, life after marriage was completely different from what he thought.

Although the lady looked better than Zhou Xiaoniang, her every move was full of elegance and her demeanor was not like that of an ordinary family, but she was poor.

After their marriage, although he had enough food and clothing, it was a far cry from the luxurious food he imagined.

The food and drink given by the lady were exactly the same as those of the villagers.

The original owner did not thank his wife for not letting him work after she knew that he was not in good health, but made embroidery to sell to support the family. Instead, he was dissatisfied with the other party for pretending to be rich since she had no money.

He made the wrong choice and found such a poor woman as his wife.

But he was dissatisfied with eating and drinking other people's food, but he would not say anything. He just returned to his usual taciturnity, sitting in the house all day long, reading books and sleeping when he was bored. Anyway, it was impossible for him to work.

After that, it was just a dull day after day.

The wife gave him a son, named Ji Yuan and Ping An. Actually, she wanted to name him Ping An, saying that she only wanted the child to live a peaceful life. However, the original owner disagreed, thinking that he was a cultured person after all, so how could he name his son Ping An, such a rustic name.

So, under his insistence, Ping An became a nickname.

The wife knew that he didn't like the name Ping An, so she only called him Yuan'er in front of the original owner.

When Ji Yuan was three years old, Zhou Xiaoniang got married.

The original owner was stunned.

He was full of confidence and thought that Zhou Xiaoniang would definitely wait for him. Even if she couldn't wait, she would be willing to be his woman without a name.

Even if he broke his promise and married Zhou Xiaoniang four years after he married, the original owner was still full of anger.

He concluded in his heart: None of the women are good things, isn't it just because they despise her poverty?

So, in such anger, the original owner got drunk, and after returning, she scolded her son. After that, because she drank too much and was exposed to the wind all the way, her body was not in good shape, and she fell ill again.

This is the current timeline.

It seems that everything is reasonable here, but Ji Changze always feels that something is wrong.

From the memory, the original owner's wife is indeed a lady from a rich family. Even if she didn't do it deliberately, her words and deeds clearly show that she has received a good education.

Logically, such a person should not be interested in a man like the original owner who is empty on the outside and a fool on the inside, but she married him and gave birth to a child.

She knew that the original owner was still thinking about Zhou Xiaoniang, but when she was his wife, she used a plain tone to persuade her husband who was decadent because of another woman to think more open-mindedly.

There is definitely no love in this.

That look didn't seem to put the original owner in her heart, but it seemed to give herself the responsibility of a wife, and taking care of the original owner was just because he was her husband.

But if that's the case, why did she marry him?

Ji Changze continued to read.

The original owner couldn't accept that Zhou Xiaoniang, who he thought was a ready-made woman, was marrying someone else, and he was furious, especially since Zhou Xiaoniang was marrying someone from the next village. It was said that she chose her own wife. Her parents wanted to sell her to an old man in his fifties as a second wife just to get the twenty taels of betrothal gift.

Zhou Xiaoniang was not happy, and her leg was broken when she fought to the death. The old man didn't want a second wife with a broken leg, so the matter naturally ended. Later, when her leg injury had just healed, her parents heard that a young master in the city was a playboy who liked beautiful women. As long as he liked them, he could take them into the mansion as concubines.

Although they had to sign a contract to sell themselves, the money this time was much more than before.

Her parents were overjoyed and hurried to make arrangements, but they kept it a secret, and Zhou Xiaoniang still found out when they met.

She was a hot-tempered person. After knowing this, she directly cut her face with a knife.

The wound was not deep, but the scar remained on her face. The young master who liked beauty naturally could not like her again, and her parents' idea of ​​selling her to make money was thwarted.

With her disfigured face, even the young men in the village might not like her.

Since then, Zhou Xiaoniang's status in the family has plummeted, and all the hard work has been assigned to her. It was because of her disfigurement that the original owner was so sure that the other party must have her in his heart and would be willing to be his secret lover.

Although her face was disfigured, the other side of her face was fine, right? Besides, Zhou Xiaoniang could copy books to make money, so he could barely tolerate her as his lover.

In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed. Zhou Xiaoniang is 21 years old and has not yet married. When everyone in the village tacitly agreed that she could only be an old maid for the rest of her life, she suddenly fell in love with the herbalist in the next village. She did not discuss it with her family, but directly packed two pieces of clothes and got the marriage certificate from the other party.

When her family members went to make trouble, she said bluntly that her life was ruined by her family members anyway. If they still wanted to destroy her last hope, the worst that could happen was that everyone would die together.

As a woman, since she had the courage to cut her own face, others would naturally not think that she was just talking nonsense, so the family could only return home in disgrace.

Unfortunately, Zhou Xiaoniang's life did not get any better because of her decision. Not long after getting married, her husband suddenly became seriously ill and soon became incurable.

When the news reached the village, the man had already died.

Zhou Xiaoniang became a widow, but she insisted on not returning to her parents' home. She took care of the housework and her husband's parents, brothers and sisters by herself.

It's just that there is no adult male in the family, which means that it is easy to bully.

The village here has a good village style, but there are always bad guys.

The original owner was that bad guy.

One day, he asked Zhou Xiaoniang out, saying that he wanted to return the silver she had given him, and Zhou Xiaoniang did not suspect him.

She treated the original owner with sincerity. If the other party did nothing wrong, she would not break off the engagement. If the other party did not keep his promise to get married, she did not have any resentment.

She was kind to others, so she thought that others would return the same kindness.

Unfortunately, Zhou Xiaoniang misjudged the original owner.

After being deceived, the original owner relied on the physical difference between men and women in a remote and deserted place to force a good thing, and also said shamelessly that Zhou Xiaoniang's husband had died anyway, and the two could have sex in private in the future.

Zhou Xiaoniang was unwilling to be humiliated and resisted fiercely. When the original owner realized that she was no longer moving, she had strangled him to death with her own hands.

He panicked and threw the body into the forest where wild beasts were roaming, and hurried back home.

As soon as he got home, he saw that his house was in a mess, his wife was lying on the bed with her lifeless body, his son was in a daze and became a fool, and his mother-in-law also died in the yard.

His wife told him the truth.

She was indeed not an ordinary person, but a demon hunter.

Ji Changze, who was watching attentively: Huh? ?

Isn't it an ordinary ancient fantasy? How come another demon hunter appeared?

Is the setting so changeable?

After taking a closer look at the situation in this world, he found that this world is really a supernatural fantasy world.

It's just that monsters and spirits generally don't make trouble in poor places. Those who want to practice honestly will stay in the mountains and don't go down the mountain, and those who like to stir up trouble will run to big places.

Who would go to a poor and backward place with no good food and a bad place to live, and no handsome men or beautiful women to stir up trouble?

What's so good about such a broken place?

Because of these, for ordinary people living in remote areas, what monsters and spirits, they just hear about them, and as for demon hunters, it is even more impossible to appear in places where there are no monsters.

Many ordinary people have never seen a monster in their lives. Even if they have seen it, if there are really monsters causing trouble, they are just some small monsters, which can't attract the attention of demon hunters at all. Ordinary people can't find anything wrong, and just think that the victims died for other reasons.

And there are also struggles among demon hunters.

They are not as Buddhist as the cultivation world, because demon hunters are a minority after all, and they have not reached the point where they can despise the imperial power. On the contrary, they still need to please the imperial power.

The demon hunters with real high status are all recognized by the imperial power and given titles.

Party disputes have emerged.

Of course, the imperial power cannot recognize that a large number of people are the most powerful. There are only a few at most, and among these few, they have to distinguish the superior and the inferior.

The resources and rights that the emperor gave to the demon exorcists were naturally distributed from the top down.

The number of places was limited, so everyone naturally had to fight for it.

The more they fought, the more hatred they had for each other.

The sect where the original owner's wife belonged was one of the sects with the most intrigue.

Other sects would just fight at most, but they fought to the death, wishing to beat the other party to death.

As the most talented and youngest disciple in her own sect, the original owner's wife has always been highly valued. She was sent to do a task to obtain a stone-shaped treasure, which is actually a natural spiritual treasure.

This treasure is a very yang thing, only suitable for women to use. Sending her there also means a layer of insurance. Before leaving, the head of the sect once said that if there is an emergency, this treasure can be used.

After she got the treasure, she quickly went to the sect to report, but on the way back, she was intercepted by fellow disciples. If she wanted to survive, she naturally had to resist.

When she fought her way out, she realized that she had somehow become a traitor who had seized the sect's treasure, killed more than 20 fellow disciples, and seriously injured the leader.

She regarded the sect as her home, and paid a high price to issue a blood killing order.

From that day on, all demon hunters who wanted to get the money would hunt her down at all costs.

The original owner's wife was desperate, and she waited until she was chased to the cliff. She had no choice but to use the treasure before she learned the truth from the fellow disciple who led the way to kill him.

It turned out that there was no treasure in the world, and this was not a treasure.

Everything was arranged.

This "treasure" was placed there by the people in the sect, and this "treasure" could not improve people's skills.

It was a chain specially used to lock the demon hunter's ability.

Using it was equivalent to becoming a useless person without any ability.

Those people were also cautious, and waited until they were sure that she had no ability to resist before they told the truth triumphantly.

She was an abandoned baby brought to the sect since she was young. She was gifted and had strong skills. She was the strongest in the entire sect. In the eyes of the original owner's wife, she became stronger for the sake of protection and also for the sake of protecting the sect.

But unknowingly, she had become a thorn in the eyes of many people.

All elders, even the head of the sect.

Their son wanted to get the position of the head of the sect, so she had the highest martial arts value, and she was the biggest stumbling block standing in front of him, even if she had never thought of competing for the position of the head of the sect.

So, she had to die.

Not only did she have to die, but she had to die reasonably, so that the whole world would despise her, so that everyone would know that it was not the sect that was wrong, but her.

So, she "stole" the treasure and killed her fellow disciples.

The sect's top leaders all participated in this conspiracy, and no one said a word for her, because she was an orphan, there was no one behind her, and she was too "flashy".

Who asked you to stand at the highest point to attract everyone's attention.

Who asked you to stand in front of us without a family background.

Your biggest mistake was that you shouldn't have taken the first place.

The original owner's wife was completely desperate at the time, and she didn't want to leave her body to them even if she died, so she jumped off the cliff in front of them.

Naturally, she didn't die.

She just rested for a long time under the cliff.

Suppressed by the "treasure" in her body, even if she worked hard to study, she couldn't use too much of her ability, and even because of her severe physical injuries, she couldn't even take care of herself.

So, she took a skeleton found under the cliff.

After studying the contents of a book she had read before for a long time, she finally used this skeleton to raise a kind-looking old lady to take care of her.

The skeleton had died long ago, and her soul was gone.

She was called an old lady, but in fact she was just a puppet, doing things according to the master's instructions.

With this old lady, the original owner's wife was taken care of and gradually got better.

She took two full years to recuperate, and she was able to figure out the characteristics of the "treasure" in her body while recuperating her body.

This thing is not effective for all demon hunters, but only for female demon hunters, because it is a very yang thing, and women are originally yin. In addition to the characteristics of demon hunters, once it enters the body, it is basically difficult to take it out.

But there is a way.

Since it is in her body, as long as she gives birth to a son with her own body, there is a high probability that the thing will leave with the child and stay in the child's body.

This thing is very vicious for female demon hunters, but it is harmless for men, and it can even help with cultivation. It is a pity that the sect is willing to spend so much money to deal with her.

But she can't find a demon hunter to give birth to a child.

Her ability is definitely in the top ten among demon hunters. It is too difficult to find a demon hunter who is stronger than her to give birth to a child. If the other party is also a demon hunter, her ability suppresses the other party's ability, then the child of the two will definitely not be able to take the treasure away from her body smoothly.

And now she is being hunted down, how could there be a demon hunter who is stronger than her willing to help in this way.

Then, she can only find an ordinary person.

It's better to find an ordinary person. Even if she is more powerful, ants bite elephants to death. If she wants to go back for revenge, she will definitely die. Since she has decided to give birth to a child and take away the treasure, she will have more responsibilities as a mother after the child is born. How can she leave him to die?

So, her behavior is very understandable.

Hide your identity as a demon hunter, disguise yourself as an ordinary person, find a place with beautiful scenery and simple folk customs, marry a local man, give birth to a child to get rid of the shackles on your body.

In this way, at least she can protect herself if something happens.

And if nothing happens, she is willing to live a plain life like this.

It is precisely because of the intrigues, framing and hunting that she only expects her children to be safe.

You can live a poorer life, or you can be incompetent, but you must be safe.

Unfortunately, she calculated two things wrong.

The first thing is that she didn't expect that this seemingly beautiful mountain village was a battlefield where countless people died thousands of years ago. At that time, tens of thousands of soldiers were killed here, so how could the resentment not be heavy.

It's just that it has been brewing underground.

After thousands of years of brewing, this resentment has long been suppressed. The resentment that rises to the sky leaks out, and all kinds of demon hunters are attracted to come.

The original owner's wife was exposed to the sect.

While the original owner was busy raping Zhou Xiaoniang, she was fighting against the people who were sent to kill her. She had never slacked off in martial arts, but she underestimated the shamelessness of her fellow disciples.

Those people captured their child Ji Yuan and forced her to kill herself.

Later, although she fought back and was able to kill the other party even though she had lost one hand and one arm, those people were so vicious that they destroyed the child's soul.

They turned her good son into an idiot.

Although the original owner's wife was seriously injured, she was not to the point of dying immediately. As long as she was given time, she could slowly recover.

But at this moment, the puppet was destroyed, her son was demented, and she could not move. The people from the sect might come to kill her at any time, so she had to move as soon as possible.

The whole family could only rely on the original owner.

The original owner's wife knew that the original owner was dull and had never shown any warmth towards her and the child, but she herself just wanted to find a man who was pleasing to the eye and live a plain life. Since she was not sincere, she would not ask the other party to be sincere to her, so she was very tolerant of this.

But she did not think that the original owner would take her away. Those people wanted her life. If she followed them, I am afraid that the whole family would go to hell in the end.

So, she proposed that the original owner take the child away and she stay.

The original owner's wife did not think that her husband would not agree. That was his own blood, how could he not agree.

The original owner really did not agree.

After listening to the above, the original owner, who was already dumbfounded, only thought of one thing.

Those people who chased his wife sounded very powerful. His wife was half dead, and it was definitely impossible for her to fight with them. When those people came to the door, after killing his wife, they might even think of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots. Would they kill him together?

As for escaping with the child?

He had never thought that the original owner, whose goal had always been to find a golden thigh to hug and then chew on, had never thought about living a life of wandering and being hunted by others.

What sin had he committed? Marrying a wife turned out to be such a big trouble.

Naturally, the original owner also chose to forget that he had been completely dependent on the other party for four years and that he had been causing trouble for the other party.

That's what he thought.

He was just an ordinary husband who didn't know about it, and those people might not kill him, but if he took the child with him, the situation would be different.

This child has the blood of his wife.

The other party would definitely not let him go.

When the child is killed, the adult must be killed as well.

Since the outcome is that everyone dies together, it is better for him to run away alone and let his wife and son die on their own.

He will definitely live well for them.

The original owner who made the decision didn't even look at his wife's disbelieving gaze. After taking all the family's money, he ran away.

No one from the sect came after him, but it was the government officials who did.

It turned out that someone discovered Zhou Xiaoniang's body. The villagers remembered that Zhou Xiaoniang once said that the original owner had something to do with her. The original owner looked like he was about to run away, so the government officials naturally wanted to arrest him.

The original owner did not expect that there was a wolf in front of him and a tiger in the back.

His handkerchief was found on Zhou Xiaoniang's body, and it must have been torn off from him during a struggle.

With all the personal and material evidence there, he couldn't deny that he had never met Zhou Xiaoniang, so he could only rack his brains to come up with excuses.

It really made him think of something to say.

In his words, Zhou Xiaoniang was depressed after losing her husband. She wanted to remarry but couldn't find anyone because of the scar on her face, so she fell in love with him, who was once engaged to her.

He looked down on Zhou Xiaoniang, but the other party refused to let her go. She even snatched his handkerchief away during the dispute and even went to his house to pester her.

contend

During this time, her mother-in-law was accidentally killed by Zhou Xiaoniang. His wife heard that she chased her out to settle the score with Zhou Xiaoniang. When she came back, she was covered in blood. She is still lying on the bed. He brought so much money not to escape, but to report the crime. And find a doctor for my wife.

The original owner's entire life's IQ may have been spent on making up this lie.

Reasonable and logical.

The government servant followed him to his house, and sure enough he found the dead old lady on the ground. There was indeed the dying wife of the original owner inside the house. The children were so frightened that they were dumbfounded.

When the original owner saw his wife reacting, his face darkened, he hugged his son and said something.

The general meaning is, how could you do such a stupid thing and even kill someone? Now that your mother-in-law is gone, you have also committed a capital crime. Our son only has me as his father. If it is not possible then, I will ask around. Do people know about your relatives? Maybe they are also looking for you.

The implication is that she is being hunted anyway, and her life is not long. The only family member of her son is the original owner. If she refuses to take the blame for him, they will all die, and a stupid child will not be able to survive.

And if he were to die directly, then he would spread the existence of the child to the sect, and everyone would die together.

He threatened his wife with his biological son. The original owner was so shameless that she was so angry that she vomited blood.

But looking at her ignorant son who was obedient even if he became stupid, she finally swallowed the blood and admitted the crime.

Before taking him away, she made the original owner swear that he would take good care of their child, otherwise he would suffer a fatal wound.

The original owner knew that she meant that if he didn't swear, she would never take the blame, so she had no choice but to swear.

The oath thing has always worked for those who are willing.

As soon as the wife was taken away, the original owner abandoned the child and ran away with the family's valuables.

Later, he was also unlucky. As soon as he ran to town, he was caught by the women's sect.

Since this sect can directly frame sha're:n in order to fight for power, they are naturally not good people. They are worried about how to draw out the Yin Qi. When the time comes, they will rely on strangulating the Yin Qi to get rewards. When the original owner escaped, he was afraid that his wife would regret it. He told me that he took a small detour and was contaminated by the yin energy of the underworld.

For these people, isn't it just that someone will give them a pillow as soon as they feel sleepy?

They captured the original owner and planned to use the original owner to draw out the Yin Qi.

In order to save his life, the original owner hurriedly said that the people in their village grew up in the village and naturally had Yin Qi. He could help lead the way and let them use the villagers to lure out the Yin Qi.

The original owner of the leading party successfully led a group of people to the small village.

That night, all the villagers were driven to the underworld. When they were swallowed by the yin energy and screamed in pain, the original owner who was not driven there quietly slipped away. Before leaving, he saw the little one among the people who were driven there. Small figure.

His biological son was about to die here, but he turned around and left without hesitation.

The small figure was quickly devoured.

The original owner thought he had escaped, but soon he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, as if his intestines were rotten. The pain was so painful that he couldn't breathe. The pain lasted for a long time, and the original owner was so violent. It hurt to death.

Before he died, he remembered that his wife had asked him to swear to take good care of the child, otherwise he would suffer rupture in his intestines and stomach.

After all, he underestimated the ability of the demon slayer.

He had done so many bad things, and he died happily, but before he died, he took the lives of so many people to be buried with him. Even Ji Changze, who had seen many scum, couldn't help but sigh that this was really among the scum. scumbag.

The original owner met basically all good people in his life.

Even if he is poor, he still wants his fiancée to fulfill his engagement.

The villagers are so poor that they still have to save food to raise him.

Although she has no love for him, she has raised him for four years and has never treated his wife harshly.

These people all gave the best they could.

But what did the original owner give them in return?

He killed his fiancée, put the blame on his wife, and killed the villagers and his own children who had helped him.

The most hateful thing is that even at the last moment of life.

What he regretted was that he shouldn't have made that oath, shouldn't have married his wife, the troublemaker, not that he shouldn't have sha're:n, shouldn't have let his wife take the blame, shouldn't have killed the villagers and his own children.

Ji Changze rubbed his eyebrows, trying to restrain the urge to beat this body, and began to count the personality of the original owner.

He was taciturn, and always showed an attitude of "Isn't this what I should do" to the villagers' kindness to him. He always hid in the house and didn't go out. He was weak and his face was always pale.

From the current situation, the original owner's wife thought he liked Zhou Xiaoniang, and not only didn't mind, but also advised him not to get stuck in a dead end. Since they were both married, it was better not to show it no matter how much he liked her, otherwise it would not only cause trouble for the other party, but also make himself unhappy.

At the same time, he was okay with his wife. Although he was taciturn for a long time without saying a word, his superiority had never been shown to the other party.

Ji Changze read his memories and naturally knew that he was actually a little afraid of his wife unconsciously. After all, the other party was a good demon hunter. Even if he pretended to be an ordinary person now, when the original owner offended her, she wanted to not get angry in her heart, but her expression could still reveal some of it.

To put it bluntly, the original owner was a bully who was afraid of the strong. To the kind-looking "mother-in-law" who always smiled and treated him politely and took good care of him, he would speak coldly and look like he didn't take her seriously at all.

But facing a woman whose eyes seemed to kill him on the spot, he didn't dare to act rashly.

He still listened to most of what the other party said.

This is also the reason why his wife couldn't see through his true face. After all, for her, the original owner was not only quiet, but also not very close to her and the child puppet, but he still listened to what she said on weekdays.

In such a small mountain valley, she was very satisfied to find a husband like the original owner who was good-looking, well-educated, and not sweaty (because he would never sweat when doing hard work), and was also relatively obedient.

In addition, there was a child between the two of them. For the girl, it was a wonderful feeling to raise a child together. Even if she had no love for the other party, and she also knew that the other party had no love for herself, but with a child, it became a family.

She had a responsibility for him and was more identified with her identity as a wife.

So she thought that her husband must have thought so too. It was like strangers became companions, supporting each other along the way. Even if there was no love, there must be friendship.

However, the original owner not only did not have friendship with her, but also wished that she would die on the spot.

Almost understanding what he was going to do, Ji Changze was thinking about how to break this scene in his heart.

The fixed impression had been formed.

In the eyes of the villagers, he was gloomy and cold. He didn't even call them uncles and aunts who had raised him since he was a child. It was their business if they treated him well, but he accepted their kindness with confidence and even made requests, which was his business.

Even though everyone felt sorry for his life experience and sympathized with him for falling from a young master to his current situation, after a long time, the original owner was so unpleasant that no one in the village could treat him well without any grudges.

Everyone said: Changze, he has no heart.

They gave because his parents had given to them.

But they had already repaid the kindness of these two people for so many years.

Not only did the other party never help them, but they also caused a lot of trouble. After getting the benefits, they were unwilling to say even a nice word. Who wouldn't feel cold in their hearts?

The elders were cold-hearted. They had no hope for this child who had been raised since childhood, and they were discouraged and planned not to make trouble.

The younger generations simply disliked the original owner.

Every time the original owner met these peers, he would always be provoked. Naturally, he would directly record this account on everyone, and fantasize in his heart about how to deal with these people when he has power in the future.

In short, he is a very unpleasant person everywhere.

Even at home, his wife didn't care much about his coldness because she didn't fall in love with him, but as a child who was born to desire fatherly love, Ji Yuan tried to act coquettishly with him several times but was treated coldly, and slowly began to avoid this father.

Puppets have no thoughts and only do things according to the instructions of their masters, which is not included.

After calculating in his mind, Ji Changze couldn't help but admire the original owner.

How did he do it? He could turn all those who had an initial good impression of him and were willing to help him into rejecting his existence.

Ji Changze didn't have this ability.

"The soup is ready, come and drink it. It has been sitting for a while, so it is only a little hot. It warms the stomach."

The old lady lifted the curtain and walked in, holding a bowl of hot soup in her hand, which was steaming. She put it next to her and asked Ji Changze: "Changze, do you want your mother to feed you?"

She still looked affectionate, but very polite.

This is also the shortcoming of the puppet. Her master gave her the character of her mother, Ji Changze's mother-in-law, and Ji Yuan's grandmother. She is diligent, neat, and can cook. The puppet will naturally act according to this character.

But a puppet is a puppet after all. Even if she makes a kind expression on her face, it is just a smile arc adjusted according to the master's instructions. There is no way to really be like a human being.

What she can do is not to refuse any request from the three people in the family.

It was precisely because of her attitude of giving whatever she asked that the original owner slowly became aggressive towards this "mother-in-law" and almost wanted to manipulate her current person.

"No need." Ji Changze naturally wanted to maintain the original character. He said coldly, sat up with difficulty, raised the bowl to his mouth and took a sip.

"It's not hot enough, please heat it up for me."

"Eh."

The puppet old lady didn't care at all about Ji Changze's ordering attitude. She picked up the bowl and walked out. The young woman named Lin Qing just opened the curtain and came in when she heard this and frowned slightly.

Naturally, she didn't think the puppet would feel aggrieved, but the puppet assumed her mother's identity, and Ji Changze, as her husband, was so rude to her mother.

Even if the puppet doesn't care at all, as a "daughter", she still has to say something.

"Nagaze, how can you talk to your mother like this? She is already so old."

Ji Changze raised his eyes, glanced at her lightly, and wrote lightly: "Really? Will she be angry?"

For some reason, Lin Qing felt guilty after seeing Ji Changze's eyes.

The puppet will naturally not be angry.

But her husband should not know this.

She quickly returned to her normal state and said, "My mother has a good nature and treats you as half her son, so naturally she won't be angry with you, but as her son-in-law, you should still respect her."

Ji Changze leaned against the wall, and the corners of his lips seemed to curl up slightly. When Lin Qing looked again, the arc was gone, as if it had never appeared before.

Strange, could it be that she saw it wrong?

She didn't think any more and just continued to sit on the edge of the bed, holding the handkerchief and continuing to return the cold handkerchief to Ji Changze.

I have to say that as a wife, she did her best. Her movements were all gentle, so gentle that one could hardly feel the intensity.

Ji Changze narrowed his eyes slightly and let her change as if he was enjoying it.

He suddenly said: "I got drunk yesterday because of Zhou Xiaoniang, but not because she got married, but because I saw her get married and recalled the past when my parents were here, which made me a little sad."

Lin Qing's men moved for a moment, then quickly resumed the action of changing the veil, and said softly: "This seems to be the first time you have said so many words."

"You misunderstood that I have Miss Mo in my heart. Of course I have to explain."

Ji Changze just closed his eyes, just like in Lin Qing's memory, and spoke in a calm voice without any emotion at all: "I have never had a relationship with her, it was just an order from my parents. I know that I I have no fate with her, and I only treat her as my sister from the beginning.”

Lin Qing had some complicated emotions in her heart.

She was used to husband and wife treating each other with respect, and this was the first time that her husband explained to her that he had no other woman in his heart.

There were some indescribable emotions in her heart. This unfamiliar emotion that had never appeared before made Lin Qing subconsciously not want to go deeper. She said hastily: "Actually, it doesn't matter even if you have her in your heart. After all, have you ever made a decision?" We were engaged to be our childhood sweethearts, but now you have made a mistake and you married her. No one did anything wrong, and I can't blame you for this. "

She quickly figured out why Ji Changze said what he said.

It must have been her persuasion just now that made her husband think she was jealous.

She explained: "What I said before was not about your relationship with Mo Xiaoniang. I just wanted you not to get drunk in front of Yuan'er next time. You don't have to think too much, and you don't have to explain this to me."

Ji Changze suddenly opened his eyes.

A pair of brown eyes looked at her steadily, and when he saw her expression, he paused and said, "What needs to be explained is that we are husband and wife after all."

They are a couple after all.

This sentence made Lin Qing feel much relieved.

She admitted that she was a little unhappy when she found out that Ji Changze was drunk because of Mo Xiaoniang's marriage. It was not that she was jealous, but she just didn't want undue factors to appear in this perfect family.

She also didn't want Yuan'er to think that her father had a woman other than his mother in his heart.

As an orphan, Lin Qing understands better than anyone how much children long for their parents.

Not only do you want your parents to love you, but you also want your parents to have a good relationship.

What she didn't get, her Yuan'er must get.

Her husband's words made her feel relaxed and at ease at the same time.

Like her, the other party also wants to maintain the family well.

This discovery delighted her.

As a result, her movements became more gentle, and she was thinking at the same time that since Ji Changze cared about this and came to explain to her, it meant that he was not as indifferent as he had shown in the past.

Maybe, you can mention something else to him.

"Husband, if you feel better later, you'd better talk to Yuan'er. Yesterday, after you drank, he tried to get close to you but you pushed him away. He cried for a long time. I know you didn't mean it, you just drank. I can’t control myself when I’m drunk, but Yuan’er is young and I’m afraid I can’t figure this out.”

"You should coax him, lest he think you don't like him."

Ji Changze nodded happily.

"It was me yesterday, and it won't happen again. You bring him in, and I'll explain it to him."

Seeing that he was so cooperative, Lin Qing felt happy in her heart. She nodded and turned around to go out. After a while, a delicate-looking little boy came in with a gentle face, two hairpins on his head and a neatly groomed body.

"Yuan'er, don't you want to see daddy? Look, daddy is awake."

Just like an ordinary gentle mother, she hugged her child and asked her husband with a smile: "Do you want to hug him?"

After saying that, she saw a rare smile on her husband's lips. He slowly stretched out his arms and said, "I still don't have the strength in my hands. You put him on my lap and sit down."

Lin Qing slowly and gently placed her son on her husband's lap.

Ji Changze's eyes gradually softened as he looked at the little boy who was looking at him with timid and frightened eyes, but also with a hint of admiration.

This is not an act.

He just loves kids.

"Yuan'er, come here, daddy's hands are weak and I'm afraid he won't be able to hold you firmly. Can you hold daddy's hand?"

Maybe it was because he got angry at his son yesterday and felt a little sorry. Today, the father's tone towards his son was rare and gentle.

The boy had never been treated like this before. He was stunned for a moment without reacting, and then his eyes were stained with joy that "my father actually spoke to me so gently." He hurriedly moved his little hands, and carefully placed his chubby fingers on the soft and firm skin for him. On my father’s broad arms.

"well done."

Ji Changze's faint compliment made the boy who was still a little timid instantly light up with a look of joy, and his little back straightened up.

"Daddy, your face looks so pale. Are you sick again? Yuan'er can help daddy make fire and make medicine."

The child's clumsy and hard-working milking sounds please his father.

Ji Changze's face was quiet, but his heart was soft. He had never been able to deal with children, let alone such a well-behaved and sensible person.

"Dad is fine. He just drank too much and has a headache."

Ji Changze stretched out his hand, a little stiffly, and patted his son's little head: "Your mother told me that my father was drunk yesterday. Did he get angry at you?"

The child nodded obediently.

"Mom said that dad was in a state of confusion when he was drunk and didn't remember Yuan'er at all, so he was angry with Yuan'er. Yuan'er knew that, so it's not dad's fault."

Ah, so good.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a well-behaved human cub.

Ji Changze tried very hard to control himself from sticking his hand on his cheap son's head, and slowly withdrew his hand.

In Lin Qing's eyes, this scene showed that a young father who was not good at words and had never communicated feelings with his children wanted to get close to his children, but he didn't know how to start.

His face was as cold as ever, but his hands were stiff and helpless.

Her eyes softened.

As a mother, she is naturally happy when the father who looks at her child actually likes the child and wants to be close to the child.

But since Nagasawa likes Genji, why has he been so cold in the past four years?

When she couldn't figure it out, she glanced past Ji Changze's slightly unnatural arm, as if she wanted to touch her son's head but was embarrassed.

Lin Qing understood instantly.

She thought about her husband's life experience.

I lost my parents when I was a teenager and grew up alone.

After becoming a father, it seems normal to not know how to get along with your children.

Mother and father are different after all. The mother was ten months pregnant, but before she was born, she was connected by blood with him, feeling the beating of her son's heart, and occasionally kicking her stomach with her little hands and feet.

He had been in her body for so long that he no longer felt unfamiliar.

Nagasawa is different.

He happened to be sick during the period after the child was born, and stayed in bed all day long (actually it was an excuse to pretend to be sick and not want to help take care of the child), and he happened to miss the newborn period.

Houyuan's son was babbling, learning to walk and eat, and he just happened to be sick (still didn't want to take care of the child).

These nurturing moments were all missed due to illness, and it was normal for him to not know how to get along with his children.

But it doesn't matter, as long as he likes Yuan'er, she is sure that the relationship between the two father and son will get better quickly.

As a wife, she hopes that her husband can love her children.

As a mother, she hopes that her son can have double the love of his parents.

In the past, she felt there was no hope, but now that she has seen that her husband actually likes his son, but simply cannot express it, Lin Qing will naturally not do nothing.

So she took the initiative to step forward and said, "Yuan'er, daddy has a headache. Please give daddy a hug and comfort him."

The child was so ignorant that he really thought that he would be fine just by hugging his father. Without hesitation for a second, he immediately got into Ji Changze's arms and hugged him.

The soft child hugged him obediently, and there seemed to be a milky fragrance unique to children. Ji Changze's heart was suddenly filled with love for the cub.

On his face, he looked helpless, as if he wanted to hug her back but didn't know where to hug her so as not to hurt this soft little body.

In the end, the young father could only maintain the awkward posture of opening his arms stiffly, hugging the child between his arms but not touching him.

As if asking for help for the first time, he raised his eyes and looked at his gentle wife who was standing next to him and smiled: "Is Yuan'er's body too soft?"

Seeing him like this, Lin Qing couldn't help but laugh.

"Children are like this. Their bones will become hard when they grow up."

"Um."

After hearing this, the young father, who still maintained a cold expression, agreed and said, "Then Yuan'er should grow up quickly."

"My mother-in-law eats a lot of food every day. She will definitely grow up quickly."

After hearing the child's words, Ji Changze's face was blank for a moment, as if he didn't know how to answer next. He looked at Lin Qing again.

Lin Qing felt that she had laughed more sincerely today than usual. She couldn't help but covered her mouth and laughed: "Husband, just praise Yuan'er."

The young father immediately praised her as if he had received some golden words: "Well, very good."

After receiving his father's praise, Ji Yuan's little face flushed with excitement.

This was the first time his father praised him.

Children are born to worship their fathers, and so is Ji Yuan. Since he understood the family relationship, he has always longed to be loved by his father. Unfortunately, his father seems to have never liked him very much. When he sees him, he will show a cold expression. He is very afraid and can only avoid his father.

But now, his father not only hugs him, but also praises him for being great.

The child was so excited that he tried harder to get into his father's arms: "Daddy, Yuan'er must eat a lot every day, and grow up to be as tall as you."

"Yeah."

Ji Changze said woodenly: "Don't forget to exercise more, and inherit Daddy in the future..."

At this point, he suddenly stopped talking, and turned to Lin Qing and said: "It's better for you to do it with this child."

Lin Qing just thought he was talking about her weak body, and didn't take it seriously.

She thought happily in her heart.

It turns out that Changze still likes Yuan'er very much. It was because she didn't observe carefully before that she caused this misunderstanding. This is really... great.
