Chapter 290 "The Demon Refining Scroll of Ten Thousand Stars"
In the Chen family's mansion in Bai County.
Xu Jingming was sitting in the small courtyard when he suddenly heard a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.
"Master." A voice came from outside.
Xu Jingming then stood up, went to pull the wooden bolt, and opened the courtyard door. Outside the door was a slightly hunchbacked man with vicissitudes of life. The hunchbacked man's hair was disheveled, and his eyes looked around through the disheveled hair. , making the surroundings seem a bit colder.
But when he looked at Xu Jingming, his eyes were much warmer.
"Master." The hunchbacked old servant shouted.
"Uncle Seven." Xu Jingming said.
The closest person to Chen Qi in this world is his old servant ‘Uncle Qi’. Uncle Qi’s full name is ‘Wu Qi’, he is the housekeeper brought by Chen Qi’s mother from her natal family! He is loyal and has been serving this young master Chen Qi for so many years.
If it weren't for Wu Qi, Chen Qi's life in the Chen family would probably be much more difficult.
"Master, I have to tell you something." The hunchbacked old servant Wu Qi said solemnly.
“What’s the matter?” Xu Jingming asked.
“I often go to visit Miss’s grave, remove weeds, and repair and maintain the cemetery.” Wu Qi’s eyes were cold, “But I discovered that yesterday the Chen family actually sent someone to dig out Miss’s coffin and prepare to move the grave. ."
"Move the grave?" Xu Jingming's face changed slightly, and he felt that the obsession in his mind became much stronger, even a little crazy.
"The Wu family caused a big trouble. The Chen family was afraid of being implicated, so they tried their best to distance themselves from each other." Wu Qi nodded, "But I didn't expect that the Chen family would be so ruthless in doing things. The young lady died ten times. After several years, they are still able to do this and even move the graves.”
"Young master, don't worry. In the past two days, I have asked the master to re-select the treasure land so that the young lady can be buried in peace." Wu Qi said.
“Thanks to Uncle Qi.”
Xu Jingming felt the surging obsession in his mind.
"Is this the remaining obsession of the body after coming to the world of demons?" Xu Jingming learned before coming in that the world of demons was originally created to hone and improve the 'spiritual consciousness', so the reason for the possession is There will be residual obsessions in the body.
“Chen Qi’s obsession is...”
Xu Jingming felt very clearly, "Get ahead! Be famous! Make his father and the Chen family regret it! Beg him to go back, and he will never go back again."
You can't act against your 'obsession', and the more you It is a violation, and the backlash of obsession will become more serious, and it is normal for schizophrenia and madness to occur in the end.
Thankfully...
This obsession is not difficult.
It is impossible for him to please the Chen family. Just knowing everything now makes Xu Jingming dislike the Chen family. In order to fulfill his obsession, he will also do things beautifully.
Once your mind is fixed, your obsessions will immediately become calmer and calmer.
"Uncle Qi." Xu Jingming said, "Today Chen Shian gave me one hundred taels of silver, forcing me to leave the Chen family and let me go out to fend for myself."
"Just give it. One hundred taels?" Wu Qi couldn't help but ask.
Xu Jingming nodded.
Wu Qi gritted his teeth and said: "The dowry that the young lady brought, and the silver taels earned for the Chen family over the years have all become the Chen family's! The eight thousand taels of silver that the young lady left for you before she died, 伱Father Chen Shian promised in front of the young lady that he would give it to you when you turn eighteen, but he has been delaying it. Now he will give you one hundred taels and let you go out and fend for yourself? "
Wu Qi is so angry.
It’s not worth it to be a lady!
"I don't want any of these hundred taels." Xu Jingming said, "Let's pack up and leave the Chen family today."
Wu Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Okay , Master, no matter where you go, the old servant will always follow you. And the young lady also realized Chen Shian's nature, so she hid five thousand taels of silver with me! "
Xu Jingming was slightly startled.
Chen Qi's dead mother actually had a hand left?
“Before the young lady got married, she only met Chen Shian twice. She seemed to have a good appearance and a good reputation. Who would have thought that it was all Chen Shian’s disguise.” Wu Qi shook her head, “That’s it, let’s leave now. The Chen family, whether they are in Bai County or going to With this money and old servants in the field, the young master will definitely be able to live well."
"Okay." Xu Jingming nodded, "Pack some things for me first."
" You have to bring the relics as well," Wu Qi said.
Soon, after packing some simple clothes and other items, Xu Jingming and Wu Qi left together.
Xu Jingming and Wu Qi passed through the courtyard gates and walked through the corridors. On the way, some nurses and maids were a little confused when they saw Xu Jingming and Wu Qi carrying packages on their backs.
When walking to the front yard.
"Chen Qi!" An angry shout sounded.
Xu Jingming turned around and saw a young man with an arrogant look on his face, accompanied by some subordinates. He pointed at Xu Jingming and shouted: "You and your old servant are carrying packages, intending to leave Chen Home?”
Xu Jingming didn’t say much and continued walking out.
"Stop!"
The young man shouted coldly, "You two are carrying packages secretly. Who knows if you have stolen my Chen family's property? Come, check their packages!"
" Chen Shuwen." Xu Jingming. Looking at him, "It's too much."
"I'm afraid that the Chen family's property will be stolen by you. Go ahead and check their packages." The young man ordered. As the grandson of the patriarch, Chen Shuwen was in the Chen family. The power is much greater than that of Chen Qi.
After he gave the order, the nursing staff immediately came forward to take action by force.
"Get lost!"
The hunchbacked old servant 'Wu Qi' who had been standing behind Xu Jingming suddenly stepped forward, and with a shout, the sword at his waist was unsheathed and disappeared in a flash! The five nurses who were approaching all flew away.
The guards fell to the ground, vomiting blood, and were filled with disbelief. Just now, they couldn't stop them at all. The back of the knife swiped at their chests, and they flew out.
Chen Shuwen couldn't believe it: "Why is this old servant so powerful?"
Xu Jingming looked at this scene and thought to himself: "Wu Qi's sword skills must be considered top-notch. The actual combat bonus is estimated to be about 30 times. "His eyes were so vicious that he judged the strength of this sword.
"You old hunchback..." Chen Shuwen couldn't believe it. At this time, Chen Shi'an finally arrived after getting the news.
Wu Qi glanced at Chen Shuwen and Chen Shian indifferently, and said: "Next time I draw the sword, it won't be the back of the sword."
This frightened the five nursing staff. .
Yes, if I had used the blade just now, all five of them would have died.
"Second uncle." Chen Shuwen gritted his teeth and said, "Look, Chen Qi and his old servant were sneaking out of the Chen family with packages on their backs. I asked people to check their packages, and this old hunchback actually injured him. Several nursing homes.”
Chen Shi'an narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Xu Jingming: "Chen Qi, I just slapped you, are you leaving today?"
"The one hundred taels of silver you gave me is in the house." Xu Jingming said.
“You don’t want a hundred taels?” Chen Shi’an smiled and said, “You have some backbone! Wu Qi, you followed my wife to the Chen family back then, and you have been my Chen family’s servant for so many years! Without my permission, How can you leave? "
Chen Shian was also secretly surprised.
For so many years, I haven’t discovered that Wu Qi is so powerful?
"A servant of the Chen family?" Wu Qi sneered, "Does the Chen family have a deed of prostitution for me? When the young lady got married, she tore up my deed of prostitution with her own hands. The first day I came to the Chen family, I Just free! I have never been a servant of your Chen family."
Chen Shian's expression changed slightly: "That's it."
"Chen Qi, he will never be a servant of the Chen family. The Chen family." Chen Shuwen yelled, "Don't use the name of the Chen family to lie outside."
"The Chen family?" Xu Jingming glanced around, "Let's make it clear from now on. From now on, my surname will no longer be Chen! I have nothing to do with your Chen family.”
After that, Xu Jingming led Wu Qi toward the door, and no one from the nursing home dared to stop him.
Chen Shuwen and Chen Shian watched the two leave.
"Second uncle, that's awesome." Chen Shuwen said with a smile, "This Chen Qi really left the Chen family obediently."
"I did it for the family too."
Chen Shian shook his head, "For the sake of the family, of course I have to give up this son. Just pretend that I never gave birth to this son." He turned around and left.
Soon, Chen Shian arrived at Chen Qi’s residence.
"Huh?"
Chen Shi'an saw a bag of silver on the table in the house, "You really didn't take away one hundred taels of silver? You are as stubborn as his mother! This one hundred taels is enough for me I drank flower wine several times."
As he spoke, he hummed a tune, picked up the bag of silver and left.
......
"Wu Qi, that hunchback, has such strength?" The old patriarch of the Chen family frowned slightly when he heard the news, "It's a pity, it's a pity that it can't be used by my Chen family. That one from the Wu family The little lady actually tore up Wu Qi’s contract of prostitution a long time ago. She really doesn’t care about my Chen family!”
The old patriarch of the Chen family had cold eyes.
"Grandpa." Chen Shuwen said, "What are we going to do next?"
"The news was released to the outside world that Chen Qi ran away from home! Those who publicly announced that they have severed ties with the Chen family no longer have the last name Chen. "The old patriarch of the Chen family. Said, "He wants to sever ties, so it is natural for us to draw him out of the family tree."
"Originally, we had to go through a lot of trouble to draw him out of the family tree, but now we have made sense. "The old patriarch of the Chen family smiled softly.
Chen Shuwen nodded.
******
Baixian County, a secluded residential house.
"Master, I usually go out and stay here occasionally." Wu Qi unlocked and opened the door, "Although it's not big, it's still clean. Master, let's deal with one or two first. I’ll rent a bigger place in a day or two.”
“No, I think it’s good.”
Xu Jingming looked at it and was quite satisfied.
And he doesn't plan to stay in Bai County for a long time. He has to go to the Qi family in Cheng'an Mansion City to find the demon-slayer 'Qi Xiao'. This was something Senior Brother Chitong asked him to help with, and even the reward was paid, so naturally he had to get it done as soon as possible.
"The young master has grown up." Wu Qi was quite happy to see his young master's appearance. He was also worried that the young master would be too stimulated. "Young master, rest first. I will buy some food and come back."
“I’m sorry to trouble you, Uncle Qi.” Xu Jingming said.
Wu Qi, because he was a little beggar adopted by the Wu family, his exact age is unknown, but he should be about the same age as Chen Qi's mother, because he was only a teenager when he first entered the Wu family.
By estimation, he is around forty years old.
"You're around forty years old, and you've obviously seen a lot of vicissitudes of life." Xu Jingming said secretly, then entered the house and placed many items in the package.
……
Night falls.
Xu Jingming rested in the main house.
“It’s time to practice the secret method of subduing demons.” Xu Jingming sat cross-legged on the bed.
In the world of demon-suppressing, countless mortals are just soil, and the most powerful ones are demon-suppressing humans and demons.
Demons are born due to human obsession, attracting the demonic energy of heaven and earth. As long as the obsession does not dissipate, the devil will never die! So even if the demon's body is defeated, everything seems to be annihilated. But we still need to ‘destroy the obsession with demons’, and the process of destroying obsessions is ‘refining demons in the soul’.
Or, the mind of the person who conquers the demon is stronger, completely destroying the obsession of the demon, and causing the demon to dissipate.
Or, the demon is even better, the demon refining fails, and the person who subdues the demon is mentally traumatized!
"So in the world of demon-slaying, it is very dangerous to conquer demons." Xu Jingming thought, "If he is weak and is killed, then it will cost another 100 million to re-establish an account."< br>
Death once is a price of 100 million universe coins.
"Even for an eighth-level starry sky being, the price of dying once will be very distressing." Xu Jingming thought, "Even if you defeat the devil, you can be defeated by the devil's obsession when refining the devil... ...Then the soul will be hurt, and the consequences will be more serious! Senior Brother Tong, who has the lineage of Yuanchu Star Conjecture, will have to recuperate for five years if his mind and consciousness are damaged. The damage to the mind and consciousness of an ordinary eighth-level starry sky life is usually more tragic."
Each eighth level. Star Life has a strong ability to make money!
It’s just that most of their time needs to be spent on the ‘evolution path’ or the affairs of their hometown civilization, and the time and energy they can really use to make money is limited.
So they felt a little distressed about the 100 million universe coins.
Of course, every eighth-level life in the starry sky is not willing to encounter such trouble as "injury to the soul and consciousness". This is much greater than the price of "100 million cosmic coins".
“There are two steps to conquer the demon.”
“First, kill the demon head-on. Second, refine the demon with your mind and destroy the demon’s obsession. These two steps are one step at a time. Difficult and dangerous." Xu Jingming thought, "But first you have to have the ability to conquer demons."
"It was passed down by Senior Brother Chitong. Among the thirty-two secret techniques, two are based on the "Yuanchu Star Conjecture Light Chapter", namely "The Great Sun Conquering Demons" and "The Demon Refining Scroll of Ten Thousand Stars".
"I am here." "Lights of Light" originally had a deep understanding, and the one that fits me best is "The Scroll of Demon Refining of Ten Thousand Stars"
Xu Jingming nodded slightly.
"Then in the world of subduing demons, I will use the "Ten Thousand Stars Demon Refining Scroll" as the core method."
Closing his eyes, Xu Jingming began to slowly spread his spiritual power to the roof. Above, contact with the moonlight above the nine heavens, "use the soul to leverage the power of the lunar calendar, and then transform it through the array of ten thousand stars in the body, cultivate the lunar magic power, and cast Just the foundation."
Xu Jingming secretly said, "This is very similar to leveraging the power of the universe with the mind! It's just that the power of the moon is far inferior to the power of the universe."< br>
As time goes by, the power of the mind induces wisps of Taiyin power to enter the body, which are transformed layer by layer in the body, and finally turn into Taiyin mana!
When a drop of cold Taiyin mana was born, Xu Jingming's absorption of Taiyin power suddenly increased.
Above the roof, the rays of the sun continued to pass through the roof tiles, flew into the house, and poured into Xu Jingming's body.
……
In the yard.
Wu Qi was sitting at the stone table. Suddenly he sensed something and saw a layer of brilliant moonlight on the roof. The moonlight was as rich as water and was constantly penetrating the roof tiles.
"This is..." Wu Qi's body trembled, and he was extremely surprised, "Inducing the power of heaven and earth to cultivate the power of subduing magic?"
"Master, the young master is practicing the secret method of subduing demons?"
Wu Qi could not contain his excitement.
"Miss, have you seen it? The young master has obtained a secret and became a demon slayer." Wu Qi had tears in his eyes. (End of this chapter)
