One pound of meat equals one attribute point

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

Several conflicts broke out between the Demon Suppression Division, the demons, and the aristocratic families, and the situation became increasingly tense.

This evening.

The sun sets in the west and the red light is everywhere.

In the inner city of Baihua County, in the study of Li Daoxuan, the Demon Suppressor.

"It's a pity that we couldn't keep that old guy Hong Jiuxiang last time." Li Daoxuan looked through the window at the sparkling river in the distance.

"Ahem!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help coughing.

An abnormal flush appeared on his face, and he stretched out his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth.

Look down.

The skinny palms were filled with blood.

Li Daoxuan frowned slightly, sighed, and wiped the blood on his hands.

"Are you okay?" Although this action was secretive, it was still noticed by a feminine young man next to him.

The young man's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he asked with some concern.

"Hahaha, it's okay!" Li Daoxuan laughed loudly, "It's just an old problem, don't worry about me. I can still work for another two years with my old bones."

"Well, that's good." The young man saw the smile on his face, nodded and said no more.

The young man's name is Murong Hanshuang.

He is the last of the three deputy captains responsible for slaying demons.

The other two people were Wang Xinlong and Luo Shuang, whom Su Heng had met before.

Murong Hanshuang is quite handsome, with a male-female appearance, fair skin, and a straight nose. Coupled with a mysterious suit, his eyes are deep. If you are walking in a modern city, it is the type that will definitely make young girls turn around and scream.

In addition, Murong Hanshuang is also the surviving son of Senior Sister Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan practiced Taoist Xuan Gong.

He lived a life of abstinence and had no heirs.

Coupled with some feelings of guilt and compensation, Li Daoxuan has always treated Murong Hanshuang as his own son.

Murong Hanshuang is also very impressive and has made numerous achievements in the Demon Suppression Division.

Before he was forty years old, he had already become the Deputy Chief of the Demon Suppression Division.

However, these were all sixty or seventy years ago. The reason why Murong Hanshuang looks young is because of the fusion of demon bones. His current actual age is over a hundred years old.

"Where did we talk about just now..." Li Daoxuan scratched his head and brought the topic back on track.

"Hong Jiuxiang failed to achieve his goal last time, and he will definitely not give up. We cannot sit still and wait for death." Wang Xinlong said solemnly.

"We'd better take the initiative." Luo Shuang frowned and said, "If the fighting happens in the inner city, many innocent people will be implicated. We will be restrained in the fight, which is very detrimental to us."

In a small room.

Li Daoxuan, plus three powerful deputy captains.

At this time, everyone is discussing the next countermeasures.

"Luo Shuang is right," Wang Xinlong said, "But the inside of the family's earthen fortress is also heavily guarded. It's best for us to catch them by surprise, so that we can achieve miraculous results."

"The longer the time drags on, the worse it will be for us." Murong Hanshuang said, "The sooner the better."

He paused and continued, "Best, let's start taking action tonight!"

"Yes!" Li Daoxuan nodded without vetoing.

"Aren't you going to wait any longer?" Luo Shuang frowned slightly, "Su Heng is still in retreat, and it should be over soon. After he comes out, we will act together, and we will be much more sure."

Although Luo Shuang only met Su Heng once.

I have never seen Su Heng's full strength.

But only part of the strength he showed was terrifying enough.

"He has more important things to do." Li Daoxuan heard this and shook his head, "What we can think of, the enemy can also think of."

"You mean that people from aristocratic families and demons might also take this opportunity to attack?"

"Not bad." Li Daoxuan nodded.

"That makes sense." Luo Shuang thought for a moment and thought Li Daoxuan was right.

She took a step back and immediately stopped talking.

"Since everyone has no objections, then... this matter has been settled." Li Daoxuan said with a smile, "Everyone should go back and prepare. After this battle is over, Baihua County will be completely changed."

"It's just that we don't know who will win." Luo Shuang sighed softly.

"Hahaha, don't say such depressing words!" Wang Xinlong stretched out his big hand and patted Luo Shuang's shoulder.

The two turned and left the room, followed by Li Daoxuan.

He took a few steps.

Stop.

Turning around, he saw Murong Hanshuang still in the room.

He lowered his head and looked blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Luo Shuang and Wang Xinlong seemed to realize that something was wrong and turned around.

Under the red light of sunset.

Murong Hanshuang stood alone in the shadow.

A blurry line clearly separated the four people from left to right.

"Are you thinking about something?" Li Daoxuan put his hands behind his back and said with a smile like an old farmer.

"Nothing..." Murong Hanshuang raised his head, "I just suddenly thought of my mother."

"Senior sister," Li Daoxuan nodded.

"When I mentioned this, I remembered another thing."

Li Dao Leave a message to remind Su Heng and let him pay attention."

"I understand." Wang Xinlong nodded heavily.

…

…

…

An abandoned village at the foot of Canglong Mountain.

The walls are broken by yellow mud and overgrown with weeds.

The walls of a large number of houses have collapsed. The red light of the setting sun shines through the gaps between the bricks and tiles, and large areas of dust, rubble and abandoned furniture can be seen.

at this time……

The demonic son that Li Daoxuan said needed special attention appeared in this inconspicuous village.

"Hanlin, didn't you say you wanted to save your mother? Why did you come to this place suddenly?"

Taotie's magical power is activated.

Along with the thin red light, a big mouth full of sharp teeth appeared on the handsome man's chin, letting out a series of strange smiles.

"The Demon Suppressing Tower is not in this remote corner. You must be lost, hahaha!"

"Uncle Taotie, can I beg you to be quiet for a while? Just a little while." Xu Hanlin pleaded with a gentle voice, "I want to be alone here for a while."

"Okay, but you have to tell me why you came to this damn place."

Taotie said carelessly.

"This is my home. I have lived here for thirteen years." Xu Hanlin's voice was full of regret.

He moved forward slowly.

Amidst the chirping of birds and the fragrance of earth, we came to a courtyard in a remote place.

Push open the old wooden door and enter the courtyard.

What catches the eye are large tracts of morning glories and wild roses in full bloom.

It was so lush that there was almost no place for people to stay in the entire courtyard.

In the middle of the courtyard is a huge locust tree.

Under the locust tree are benches and stone tables made of wood.

There is a chessboard carved on the stone table and tea sets placed on it. The tea set and stone table were already covered with dust.

"It's been more than twenty years since my mother was arrested. This is the first time I've come back here." Xu Hanlin gently reached out to pick up the tea cup, wiped the dust on it, and said softly:

"Those who lived with my mother, the memories left here are really wonderful."

"It's so beautiful that it's unreal, like a dream." Xu Hanlin said, "The more beautiful something is, the more painful it is when it is lost."

"Uncle Taotie..."

Xu Hanlin spoke, but there was no sound.

After a moment of silence, "Don't you want me to speak?" Taotie asked.

"I want to talk to someone, anyone can do it." Xu Hanlin put down the tea cup, his eyes were slightly red.

He smiled, "What do you see here?"

"Flowers, many flowers." Taotie replied, "It's a pity that I can't recognize the variety."

"It doesn't matter, I can teach you." Xu Hanlin said gently, "These small trumpet-like flowers are morning glories, the yellow ones are chrysanthemums, and the white ones are roses. The ones hanging in bunches from the shelf are wisterias, and the big ones are wisterias. There are lots of gypsophila growing in the grass.”

"Your mother likes flowers very much?" Taotie muttered, "What a strange monster."

"No..." The smile on Xu Hanlin's face faded and he shook his head, "I like flowers, so my mother planted a sea of ​​flowers all over the yard. Most of them are now abandoned. Twenty years ago, this yard There are flowers of various colors and shapes.”

"Well, that picture must be beautiful." Taotie said, "Although I can't appreciate it."

"Yes, it is indeed beautiful." Xu Hanlin sighed, "But later, I met a charlatan. He told me that snakes are very sensitive to pollen. This sea of ​​flowers in the yard is very interesting to me. It was said to be a beautiful sight, but it was a torture to my mother, but she didn’t show it at all..."

"She loves you very much." Taotie said in a deep voice.

"There is also this locust tree." Xu Hanlin put down the cleaned tea cup, stood up slowly, and reached out to stroke the old and rough trunk of the locust tree.

"This locust tree was planted by my mother when I was born." Xu Hanlin raised his head, "In the blink of an eye, it has grown so big."

"Did you see that half of the Yaoqin?"

Xu Hanlin continued to move forward, carefully crossing the sea of ​​flowers.

In the garbage heap overgrown with weeds, I gently held half a wooden Yaoqin in my arms.

"That year during the River Lantern Festival, I saw other friends in the village going to the riverside to play and participate in the lantern show. I wanted to go too, but my mother didn't allow it. At that time, I didn't understand why. I got angry with her and had a tough time with her. Finally my mother agreed."

"Taotie, you know what. I regret it so much, I really regret it..."

There was a hint of crying in Xu Hanlin's voice. He lowered his head and covered his face with his hands. His shoulders could not help but tremble.

"It was because of this River Lantern Festival that my mother was discovered by the people of the Suppressing Demon Division. Not long after, my mother was captured by the people of the Suppressing Demon Division. This Yao Qin was bought at the Jiang Lantern Festival."

"It has been more than twenty years, and I still remember what happened on the day my mother disappeared." Xu Hanlin said in a low voice.

"Those bastards must have set up a dragnet." Taotie said viciously, "They are inhumane and will do anything to deal with the monsters."

"No……"

Xu Hanlin shook his head and said, "How can a mother expose her child to danger?"

"It was a very ordinary evening."
