Madam, please listen to my explanation.

Chapter 17 Heart Monster (Thanks to the support of the leader of 'Play and Eat'!)
Yongzhou, Dongli Town.

This southern town at the foot of Mount Pulao was hit by heavy snow today for the first time ever.

At the bow of the black-sailed boat, the boatman stopped singing, and the children rushed out onto the street to enjoy this rare sight.

The Li River flows from west to east, running through the entire town.

A woman who was washing clothes noticed that the water in front of her seemed to be trembling slightly.

On the top of the mountain, there stands a lonely stone tablet.

On it, as if carved by a knife or an axe, there are two lines of text:

"Zhao Wuji is dead, Ruoxi has been captured. If you want revenge, quickly go to the Hehuan Sect on Qingluan Mountain."

Suddenly, a green sword energy shot up into the sky, cutting the thick clouds in two.

The sword light faded, and only a hunched figure remained on the bare mountain top.

Thin and weak.

It was as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

The man raised his head and held up the wine jug at his waist.

However, after shaking for a long time, not a drop of wine came out.

'Have you been in seclusion for too long?

Why am I suddenly feeling uneasy?

He looked at the sky and muttered to himself.

Forget it, let’s go down the mountain and get some wine first.

Just as he was about to move, his steps suddenly stopped.

"My money is very tight."

How can this be good?

The man sat on the ground, his brows tightly furrowed on his dirty face.

He was extremely thirsty, but with his status, it was not easy for him to just rob.
What a hassle!

"What is this?"

With a casual move of his hand, the broken stone slabs on the ground pieced themselves together before his eyes.

The palm of that hand was covered with dense, fine scars like earthworms.

"Ruoxi is dead. Revenge. Qingluan Mountain Hehuan Sect?"

boom!
With one step, the man turned into a stream of light and flew straight towards the east.

On this day, the towering peak of Pulao Mountain was cut off by an unknown force.

The small town in the south is covered in snow.

The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking.

After returning to Zizhu Peak, Xu Jinhuan felt a faint twitching between his eyebrows for some reason, as if a disaster was about to happen.

Having just lost a lot of blood, he looked pale and leaned against the bamboo forest, lost in thought.

Could it be that Mr. Ning discovered something?
After thinking it over again and again without any result, he simply changed his clothes.

Zhao Qi's adopted brother is about to be released from confinement.

I have left a note in advance. With that person's hot temper, he should come as soon as possible.
"What are you thinking about?"

"Oh? Your Highness is still awake?"

Zhao Ruoxi heard the noise and walked out of the house slowly.

"You smell disgusting, like heather."

Xu Jinhuan: “.”

Woman, you are still too young.

Aunt is different, she only feels sorry for her apprentice
After putting on his night clothes, Xu Jinhuan suddenly asked tentatively:
"Seriously, what's your impression of your brother?"

Zhao Ruoxi seemed very surprised, and it was obvious that she even choked back the sarcastic words she had prepared.

"Brother, are you talking about Brother Jingyu?"

"Of course, the others are all dead now."

Xu Jinhuan looked suspicious.

As a result, the expression of the woman opposite seemed even more confused than his.

No, no
As your biological sister, you wouldn't be ignorant of everything, right?

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Zhao Ruoxi frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said slowly:

“I don’t quite understand what you mean.

It is no secret that Emperor Jingyu died young.

I was only three years old when he died. "The sky fell.

Xu Jinhuan rubbed his eyebrows.

This isn't right.

At the very least, it is different from what I know.

In the first year of Xiangfu, strange phenomena began to occur frequently, starting from the Yongzhou area in the southern border.

An unkempt swordsman suddenly appeared and challenged all the sects in the world alone, remaining undefeated.

The following year, the man went on a killing spree in Qingluan Mountain and took the deceased Zhao Ruoxi away by mistake. He played a crucial role in his road to revenge.

His name is Shen Ye.

Xu Jinhuan, who had been unraveling a large number of side quests, later learned that the so-called "Shen Ye" was actually the legendary fourth prince who died young - Zhao Jingyu.

Zhao Ruoxi's biological brother from the same mother.

Now, you tell me that if you don’t know me well, don’t get involved?

It is said that the fourth prince of Zhao was intelligent and studious since childhood, and was proficient in poetry and songs. He was once regarded by Zhao Wou-Ki as his successor.

As for why she later became unrecognizable and had to hide her identity, it is probably another secret in the deep palace.

He shook his head and didn't continue the topic.

After all, as the other party said, he was only three years old at that time, and it was normal for him not to understand the whole story.

"Just go to bed, I need to go out for a while."

Looking at the contemptuous look in Zhao Ruoxi's eyes before she turned around, Xu Jinhuan just shook his head helplessly without explaining too much.

Still here being weird
I almost lost my virginity for her!
"Heart demon."

Zhao Ruoxi didn't turn around, and her voice was faint and pleasant to the ears.

"???"

"It is said that this is the evil spirit that was transformed from a woman trapped in love who committed suicide. She is good at taking human form and likes to eat human organs.
Especially the intestines."

Xu Jinhuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the other party had already slammed the door shut.

"Bless yourself."
-
Xinghua Lane, Duofu Hall.

The creaking sound lasted for a moment, and then a man's tired breathing was heard from inside the house.

“I can’t stay long.”

"Rest here peacefully. There were some issues with the pills, but I will resolve them as soon as possible."

"That's better, you."

Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice came out again.

Xu Jinhuan, squatting on the roof, was speechless.

Two hours.

God knows how he managed to get through these two hours.

Every time the storm subsided, he thought it was the end.

Who knew it would be a new beginning?
I can only say that Master is worthy of being the leader of the Hehuan Sect.

After a few breaths, conversations started again in the room, but the content did not contain any concrete information.

Xu Jinhuan couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

"It is said that the human limit is 61 times. I wonder if Master can break this record."

Yuan Hongling is indeed one of the most famous sorcerers in the world. After all, anyone who can draw a sixth-grade talisman must have a cultivation level that is no lower than this level.

The invisible talisman she drew was attached to her body, eliminating all sounds and smells.

As long as they are not seen face to face, there is almost no possibility of exposure.

He had wanted to wait until they were both asleep and then take the risk of taking a quick glance.

Then, based on her facial features, draw a portrait to find out the identity of this mysterious woman.

Now it seems better to visit again another day
Just as he stood up and prepared to leave, he suddenly heard his master say angrily:

"why are you crying?!"

"Can't bear to part with that old thing?"

Xu Jinhuan stopped immediately. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped some important information.

Snapped!
Accompanied by a crisp slapping sound, the woman in the room flew into a rage:
"Ning, you're so bold!"

Xu Jinhuan listened attentively and suddenly felt something unusual.

As soon as he turned around, dense flying knives came towards him like raindrops!
