Chapter 180 Temporary Calm

Tao Xiaoyao? She is back so soon?

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

When Tao Xiaoyao was with us, she always appeared with He Mengdie's face. Now she changed her appearance, wearing a blue sermon robe, a bun on her head, and a pretty face, which had a unique flavor.

Tao Xiaoyao sat down and raised his hand to pour a cup of Erguotou for himself: "Peanuts, pork head meat, Erguotou, not bad, it's a good thing to drink."

Tao Xiaoyao ate a few pieces of pork head meat, drank another glass of wine and let out a breath: "It's comfortable, I've been hungry until now, I finally have some food in my stomach. Chen Ye, you haven't violated our agreement, right?"

I poured her another glass of wine: "I'm waiting for your answer. However, I'll make a statement in advance that I know the name of Thousand Face Witch."

Although the Thousand Face Witch ranks eighth on the Hunter List, it is known as the two most mysterious beauties with Yiyu Tianqing.

Yiyu Tianqing never meets his employer.

The Thousand-Faced Witch is like not seeing her. You don’t know if she is wearing a mask or several layers of masks.

Tao Xiaoyao chewed a pig's ear: "To put it simply, I accepted the employment. However, my employer is not Boss He, but her daughter He Mengdie. He Mengdie spent a lot of money to hire me to pretend to be her and persisted until the end of the task."

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

"It's that simple!" Tao Xiaoyao said: "Before I took the task, I also knew a little about the He family's affairs. I thought He Mengdie hired me to save myself. After all, it is common for us to pretend to be an employer to help others avoid disasters. So, I didn't think much about it. Now it seems that this task is far more complicated than I imagined."

I looked at Tao Xiaoyao and said, "Are you not afraid of cause and effect when you help others avoid disaster?"

"You care too much about cause and effect." Tao Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "When you take over the He family's mission, you also messed up yourself with the cause and effect of others? What we do is just different methods. The essence is the same."

Tao Xiaoye paused in a voice: "But then again, the cause and effect of avoiding disasters for others is indeed a little heavier. So, I want to lie down. Do you still lack people? What about me?"

"Welcome, welcome!" Before I could speak, Ye Xuan's mouth opened: "The mobile department specializes in recruiting strange people, with beautiful prices and excellent treatment, right? "

Ye Xuan said this, what else can I say? Besides, Tao Xiaoyao saved my life, and I have no reason to refuse whether it is reasonable or reasonable.

Just as I was about to nod, everyone present frowned and looked in one direction at the same time.

How about the heart!

He Ruxin deliberately let us discover his whereabouts, otherwise he would not have walked to the door before making any noise.

"Xiao Qian'er brings a cup!" I poured a glass of wine and said, "Wine is not good wine, and food is not good food. Boss He doesn't dislike it and sit down and drink a glass."

He Ruxin came over and picked up the wine glass and drank it all: "When I was young, I soaked on the construction site every day, and my food and drink were almost the same as this. Are there cucumbers? I could drink this way."

Xiao Qianer stood up and washed a few cucumbers for He Ruxin. He Ruxin picked up the cucumber and took it and said, "I haven't drunk like this for a long time! I'm happy!"

I said lightly: "Why should I call you Boss He? Or should I call you a gatekeeper?"

As soon as I finished speaking, Ye Xuan and the others showed their deep affection for their guard.

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

He Ruxin said slowly: "At that time, my elder brother discovered the secret in the ancient temple while building the mall, and summoned a few friends to follow the clues in the temple to find the Temple of Time. My elder brother built Wuwang Courtyard and invested in the quarry to find the Temple of Time. It can be said that hard work pays off! After a few years, they finally found the temple and couldn't help practicing the magic of time. But the test of magical arts also came one after another. The four partners of my elder brother were all destroyed by the magical arts."

I said in a deep voice: "According to your words, letting time go back and save your closest relatives is the first test of divine art? Is there a spirit in divine art? "

He Ruxin nodded and said, "You are right. The magic technique itself has no spirituality, but practicing magic technique is equivalent to usurping the fate of mortals. The test of magic technique is better to say it is a kind of divine punishment. If mortals covet the inheritance of gods, they will inevitably be punished. The closest relatives are the first punishment of gods."

Xiao Qianer whispered to himself: "Did Uncle Tie lock Tie Danzi in the house to avoid divine punishment?"

He Ruxin looked at Xiao Qian'er and said, "Are you talking about Tiehao? He is indeed the first person to accept God's punishment. He was not sure of passing God's punishment, so he had to seal his son into an airtight house in order to prevent the arrival of God's punishment."

He Ruxin did not explain it carefully, but I could roughly guess what secret technique Tie Hao used.

The Book of Lu Ban records that secret techniques are related to civil engineering, and those who practice Lu Ban are divided into many branches, and their practice methods are different. As far as I know, blocking employers in a house that can block evil spirits is also one of the methods, which is similar to some sorcerers' habit of putting people into coffins. Tie Hao sealed Tie Danzi into the house at that time to block magic.

He Ruxin continued, "Tiehao can be said to be the highest cultivation among the five civil warlocks, but his secret technique is vulnerable to the gods. After he buried his children, he came to the temple. As a result, he died in the temple. Then, they died one by one under the punishment of the gods. My elder brother ran back to tell me everything, and the people followed him."

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

"Mengdie has long been dead!" He Ruxin shook his head and said, "My elder brother sent back the news, but Mengdie did not escape the punishment of divine destruction. However, Mengdie died abroad, and no one except me knew that Mengdie was gone."

He Ruxin said, "The later He Mengdie was just an orphan I adopted. Because she looked very similar to Mengdie, I made a deal with her. I gave her everything she wanted, and she would play He Mengdie."

When Xiao Qian'er heard this, she couldn't help but say, "No wonder He Mengdie can survive every time. It turns out that she has no blood relationship with the He family at all, so the divine punishment naturally cannot fall on her head."

I stared at He Ruxin and said, "You want magical skills too!"

"Yes!" He Ruxin did not deny: "Although Mengdie is dead, I am constantly hiring masters to protect her substitute. The purpose is to let them discover the secrets of the ancient temple to practice magic."

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

He Ruxin still understands the principle of guilt that he is guilty of possessing a treasure. If he had taken out the secret technique, at this time, he might have been a dead person.

He Ruxin said, "I thought about it for a long time before I came up with an extremely dangerous solution. That is, pretending to know nothing, hire a sorcerer to protect Mengdie's substitute, and then let them discover the secret of the ancient temple."

"At the beginning, my elder brother designed and built a shopping mall. No one knew the mall better than me. So, I opened a cafeteria near the ancient temple in the name of someone else. I redesigned everything about the restaurant. Let the entire ancient temple be under my surveillance at all times. As long as someone comes into contact with the ancient temple, he must hide it in it and practice. What I do is just wait to see it."

He Ruxin paused after saying this: "The first person I hired was Zhang Yuanlong, but I found that he could not understand the magical arts, so I started to hire other sorcerers again. I think you probably already know what happened next. What I want to say is that after Zhang Yuanlong and the others got together, things went beyond my control. There was nothing I could do about some things."

He Ruxin should not have told lies. Zhang Yuanlong and the other five are the best among the sorcerers. When they get together, He Ruxin is definitely not an opponent. He has reached the limit of being able to keep his secrets and not be discovered. He naturally dare not act rashly in other matters.

I said in a deep voice: "He Mengdie...What's wrong with He Mengdie hiring Tao Xiaoye?"

He Ruxin shook her head and said, "Where is a human being! After experiencing something for too long, some other thoughts will always arise. That girl has other thoughts. She hired someone to pretend to be herself, but in fact she wanted to create evidence that she was absent. In this way, if I die, no one will hold her accountable. She will naturally inherit the He family's estate. She didn't expect that I could just use the magic of time to save myself."

He Mengdie's substitute must have died.

I heard the murderous intent from He Ruxin's words.

He Ruxin said, "I didn't expect that my self-rescue that time, which was not planned, actually brought my magic to the third level."

According to He Ruxin, the test of saving people through divine arts is considered to have reached the second level; the test of self-rescue should be the third level.

He Ruxin has no close relatives, so he has overcome the first test and jumped to the third level after saving himself.

He Ruxin said: "After I accidentally reached the third level, I could actually open the gate of the temple. But at that time, the situation had far exceeded my control. I didn't expect that the He family's mission would become a game between sects and arts."

"The temple is crucial to me. I cannot let any of you win. No matter who wins this game, I cannot get the complete magic of time. I can only win the fire."

I lit a cigarette and said, "I can understand you're plotting against us. What I don't understand is, why do you want to save me?"
