divine talisman

Zhang's grocery store located on the bustling streets of Songyan City was turned into ruins overnight.

It has been three months.

On the bustling street, row upon row of shops, noisy crowd, everywhere is so lively, only here is as quiet as a tomb, as long as pedestrians pass by here, they must stay far away, as if they are afraid of a little bad luck.

Here, it is still in ruins. In the cracks of the broken roof tiles, there are still dark red mottled blood stains. This is the blood of the owner of Zhang's grocery store and 37 talisman apprentices. Although the corpses have rotted and disappeared, the blood cannot be wiped away. Elimination, as if talking about the panic, anger, and resentment in my heart...

A businessman came with a group of tall and mighty servants. He fell in love with this piece of land and wanted to build a shop on the ruins.

"Demolition! I have already asked the Li family for instructions, and I paid a lot of money for this site. From now on, this will be Master Cui's site. Hurry up and remove these rotten stones, rotten wood, and all this dirty hair. Rinse off the stinky blood stains with water!"

The potbellied businessman yelled and ordered, but found that a group of mighty servants behind him showed embarrassment and refused to step forward, and couldn't help being furious: "What's there to worry about? I'm afraid of getting the bad luck of the broom star!" , were you dealt with by the Li family? Didn’t I tell you, I’ve already asked the Li family for instructions!”

"Master, so many people have died here, it seems unlucky to open a shop, right? Besides, Broom Star has stayed here for four years, who knows if he will be affected by his bad luck..." A servant had a bitter look on his face. Se explained.

"That's right, everyone in the whole city related to Saobaxing is dead, and even the things he used have been burned to the ground."

"Master, we don't want this piece of land!"

A group of servants expressed their worries in a hurry.

"Do you still want to live or not?" Merchant Cui roared loudly, "Go to work for me, if you don't clean up the ruins tonight, I'll take the heads of you low servants!"

The servants were silent, so they could only grit their teeth and stepped forward one by one, and began to clean up the ruined Zhang's grocery store.

Seeing this, Merchant Cui's complexion improved a lot, and he muttered disdainfully: "A bunch of trash, trash like broom stars, if I'm a member of the Li family, if I dare not listen to me, I'll kill you all... "

"Hiss, who is that guy? He has such a strong murderous aura, as if he walked out of the sea of ​​corpses in the river of blood!"

"It's Chen Xi! It's Chen Xi! He...he's back!"

"Chen Xi? The broom star?"

"No, I have to hide from him quickly. If I have any relationship with him, the Li family may destroy my whole family."

On the street in the distance, several screams suddenly came out from the bustling crowd, as if they saw an incredible beast, their complexions changed drastically, and they ran away in panic.

Immediately, the entire street was full of people fleeing, crying and shouting, as if they had encountered something terrible.

"Master, Broom Star is back!"

"Let's run away too!"

"Yeah yeah."

All the servants were crying, if they were not afraid of Merchant Cui's power, they might have already fled.

"Shut up!" Merchant Cui's expression was also changing, and he gritted his teeth and shouted violently: "It's just a waste that can only make talismans. What are you afraid of? Those people ran away because they were afraid of the Li family. Master, I have a close relationship with the Li family. Running away?"

While Merchant Cui was speaking, there was no one on the crowded street, and the merchants on both sides of the street also closed their doors with a bang, as if avoiding the plague.

The atmosphere became silent, eerie, and dull, like the calm before a storm.

"Don't panic, you can do whatever you want, today's salary will be increased by ten times!" Merchant Cui took a deep breath and said slowly.

Money touches people's hearts, and it can also drive ghosts and gods.

Hearing that the wages were increased tenfold, the faces of all the servants were extremely ugly, but none of them chose to leave. This was the allure of money.

again and again!again and again!again and again!

A burst of footsteps resounded on the deserted and dull street. The sound was as light as a wispy wind, and as heavy as a drum beating. Every time it hit the heart, it made people's blood soar and their breathing heavy.

Amidst the startling and strange footsteps, a thin and stern figure approached. His expression was as cold as a dead thing without emotion, but his pair of eyes were blood red, and the deep red eyes were like those in the legend. Demons, demons.

Murderous aura, like thick blood plasma that cannot be melted, like a sharp knife piercing into the bone marrow.

And his person is like a sharp sword unsheathed in the ups and downs of the sea of ​​blood, eager to drink blood and soul.

Pfft!

Merchant Cui's knees softened and he fell to the ground. His whole body seemed to be drained of strength, and his throat seemed to be pinched by an invisible big hand. His eyes were round and wide open. Seeing the murderous figure approaching, he couldn't bear it any longer. Suddenly let out a shrill scream: "Chen Xi, you bastard, what are you doing? Behind me is the Li family, you can't touch me!!"

On one side, many servants had already panicked and sat on the ground, their mouths trembling and their faces pale. It wasn't until they saw that figure that they realized that no matter how much money they earned, it was not as valuable as their own lives.

Chen Xi ignored them, he just looked at the ruins, and the past scenes flashed through his mind.

"Poor little guy, since no one is buying your talisman, then sell it to me. It's not easy to support a family at such a young age."

"Haha, Chen Xi, your talisman-making skills have improved again. You must keep working hard. Don't be proud. For your grandfather, younger brother, and most importantly, for yourself."

"I know there will be such a day, let's go, Uncle's place is too small, your life should not be imprisoned here, work hard, no matter what, remember to come back to see Uncle when you have time, hahaha, I am Isn't it too greedy?"

……

Two lines of bright red blood and tears silently slid down his cheeks. Chen Xi knelt down on the ground, facing the ruins, facing the former Zhang's grocery store, and facing that Uncle Zhang who always encouraged him to help him, he kowtowed heavily to the ground.

"Uncle, Xiao Xi has grown up, I will avenge your revenge!"

After getting up, Chen Xi left without looking back.

On the side, Merchant Cui and a kind of servant all looked horrified and hideous, bleeding from their seven orifices, and died silently.

On the ground, there was another talisman written in blood. It was the first-grade talisman Fire Cloud Talisman that Chen Xi was best at making. The blood-colored talisman patterns bloomed like flowers, as if paying homage to the dead souls in the ruins.

Qingxi Restaurant.

On the empty and desolate ruins, there were white bones and blood stains. Chen Xi was cooking delicious dishes with all his heart, and he was still muttering something. He could faintly hear 'Old Man Ma', 'Pei Pei', 'Joe' South'...such trivial words.

The scene of ruins, blood stains, bones, and a person cooking and talking is very strange, even scary.

After a stick of incense.

Four dishes and a jug of wine were placed in front of the ruins, but Chen Xi was no longer there.

A wild dog smelled the scent and came running, but before it got close to the extremely delicious dish, a whimpering sound came out of its mouth, and its body crashed to the ground, dying on the spot.

-

Chen Xi is back!

The news spread throughout Songyan City as if it had grown wings in a blink of an eye, causing the whole city to shake.

Chen Xi, a broom star who grew up in Songyan City since he was a child, his family was ruined when he was born, his parents disappeared, his marriage contract was torn up, his grandfather died tragically, his younger brother's right hand was crippled...

A few months ago, it was because of him that the Li family killed civilians thousands of miles away, Zhang's grocery store, and Qingxi restaurant. Anyone who had any relationship with him died tragically. innocent?

Now that the well-known broom star is back, is he going to smear the whole city with a layer of bad luck and blood?

There are no people on the street.

Bustling shops also closed one after another.

Colleges and universities, large and small, have banned students from going out.

The whole city seemed to have become an empty city in a blink of an eye.

Even the self-proclaimed high-strength monks were silent and watching at this moment. They seemed to be able to see that on this day, Chen Xi was destined to die tragically under the butcher's knife of the Li family.

-

General's House.

Luo Chong, the number one expert under General Qin's command, frowned, full of worries.

At this moment, a guard ran over quickly, knelt on one knee and said, "Report to Commander Luo, the general has something to say, and my general's residence will not interfere in this matter."

boom!

Luo Chong slapped the side of the desk hard with his palm, causing sawdust to fly.

"Watching his Li family slaughter tens of thousands of civilians, and watching the destruction of Zhang's grocery store and Qingxi restaurant. If this continues, how can the majesty of my general's mansion survive? What will I use to convince the public?"

The anger that Luo Chong had accumulated for several months could no longer hold back and erupted at this moment. His expression was ferocious, and he roared loudly, "Why? Why did you ignore it? Just because the Li family has the support of the Longyuan Su family behind them, they can trample on them. The majesty of my general's mansion?"

"Luo Chong, you're too impulsive!" An extremely majestic voice sounded, and then a middle-aged man in a purple robe paced over, nine feet tall, with a straight back, like a sword like a gun, like a mountain oppressing him, full of majesty .This person is the supreme No.1 of the General's Mansion and the actual ruler of Songyan City, Qin Han.

"General!" Seeing the middle-aged man in the purple robe, Luo Chong was startled, took a deep breath, stood up and cupped his hands.

"The Su family is terrifying, and those big forces in Longyuan City are terrifying. Although you and I represent the will of the Great Chu Dynasty, we can only choose to compromise in the face of these ancient family forces."

Qin Han sighed: "Don't say it's you and me, even in Longyuan City, in the entire southern border, there is no general mansion in any city that dares to openly contend with it."

Luo Chong knew that Qin Han was telling the truth, but the anger in his heart continued unabated. He gritted his teeth and said, "We are dealing with the Li family, not the Su family!"

Qin Han shook his head and said, "Without the support of the Longyuan Su family, do you think the Li family would dare to be so unscrupulous?"

Luo Chong asked in a daze: "Could it be that we just do nothing like this? We just watched Chen Xi get killed? Hong Mian has a very good relationship with him."

"I know, that's why I locked that girl up." Qin Han replied casually, "There's nothing I can do about it. Once Chen Xi dies, maybe the entire Songyan City will be at peace. Besides, for the sake of a ruined family My son, if you offend the Li family and the Su family, you will undoubtedly bury my general's mansion in a pit of fire, it's not worth it."

"Is a big family and a big power so terrifying..." Luo Chong muttered to himself, powerless.

"Indeed." Qin Han nodded, but did not explain further.
