Chapter 1(1):Young Master Jiang's swordsmanship today is also quite exquisite
It was the third year of Yonghe, deep winter.
It did not rain in Chang'an today, but the sky was covered with clouds and occasional flashes of lightning.
It was almost the hour of Xu, and there were no candles in this deserted house.
There was no one in the mansion, and there was a faint black fog. Several ghosts passed through, and the sad cries were like threads, and no one knew where they came from and where they drifted away.
A person in red swept past the corner of the corridor, and the bamboo lantern in her hand emitted light, illuminating the pale face -
the face had no facial features, like thin paper, like a ghost or a demon.
In the room separated by a wall, after the ghost left, a figure poked its head out of the wooden cabinet.
She stepped out of the cabinet with light steps, as nimbly as a cat. In the heavy rabbit fur cloak, the sea-wave-patterned green skirt swayed in the wind, like the green waves spreading in the night.
A snow-white fox curled up in her arms and spoke in human language: "Finally gone. Shi Dai, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, but my legs are a little weak."
Looking towards the window, Shi Dai whispered: "When will the people from Zhen'e Division come?"
"The demons and ghosts are causing chaos, and Zhen'e Division will definitely get wind of it, so you can rest assured."
The fox said: "But, push the time..."
It hesitated a little, and a flash of fear flashed across its eyes: "Jiang Baiyan will be back to Chang'an soon. Do you still remember the plot in 'Record of Common People'? "
Shi Dai nodded.
She has been in this world for five days.
As a prospective college student, Shi Dai encountered a car accident on the way to report to the police academy. When she opened her eyes again, she became a girl with the same name and surname in another world.
Five days ago, when she woke up from the bed, the fox in front of her was guarding the bed and handed her a book called "Record of Common People".
The fox called himself "Ali".
"I am a fallen fragment of the Heavenly Dao."
Ali said, "Now that demons are everywhere, there will be a world-destroying disaster in a few months. I personally experienced that catastrophe. Before the three realms collapsed, I went back in time and space and summoned you to turn the tide."
According to it, in that catastrophe that swallowed the sky and the earth, the Heavenly Dao collapsed, leaving only this broken fragment.
Because it was extremely weak and used its remaining strength to go back in time, the Heavenly Dao that once overlooked all living beings could only possess the body of the fox raised by the original owner.
The reason why Shi Dai was chosen was not because she was the daughter of destiny that everyone expected. It was just because it was bound by the laws of the three thousand worlds and could not reveal the future to anyone in this world, so it could only summon lonely souls from another world.
It happened that the original owner of this body made a wish before he died, hoping to use his life in exchange for the safety of his family.
The strong wish power and the fragments of the Heavenly Dao merged with each other, breaking through the prohibition of heaven, and she was drawn here as the reincarnation of the original owner.
To put it bluntly, it was all fate.
In order to provide more clues to Shi Dai, Ali wrote "Records of Common People" to explain the life of the original owner.
The current country is called 'Zhao', where humans, monsters, ghosts, and immortals coexist, and it is common for monsters and evil spirits to cause chaos.
In order to protect the peace and prosperity of the country, the court established the Zhen'e Division to recruit strange people and sorcerers from all over the world to eliminate demons, defend the way, and catch monsters and suppress evil.
Her father's name is Shi Jingcheng, who is the well-deserved leader of the Zhen'e Division. He has superb knife skills and recently went to the extreme north to subdue the big monster.
Her mother Meng Ke is the owner of the largest restaurant in the capital, and she also has many pawnshops, teahouses, and cosmetics shops, making a fortune every day.
With such a pair of parents, the original owner has been pampered and practiced magic since childhood. Not long ago, she entered the Zhen'e Division as a talisman master.
As for Jiang Baiyan mentioned by Ali, he is the son of an old friend of Shi Jingcheng and Meng Ke, and the combat ceiling of the younger generation in "Records of Common People".
Who this "old friend" is is not written in the book, and Shi Dai does not know.
She only knows that Jiang Baiyan's family was wiped out when he was a child, and he was abducted by evil cultivators and became a substitute puppet.
What is a substitute puppet?
Once the evil cultivator is injured, all the wounds and pain will be transferred to Jiang Baiyan; when the evil cultivator dies, Jiang Baiyan will die in his place.
In short, Jiang Baiyan was used as a tool to bear pain for several years. At the age of fifteen, he cracked the puppet substitution technique and sent the evil cultivator to the west with a sword.
Calculating the time, he is now seventeen and met Shi Jingcheng by chance a month ago. Shi Jingcheng recognized this old friend's son and kept him in Shi Mansion as a disciple.
Speaking of this, we have to mention the original "Shi Dai".
Most of the evil cultivators follow crooked ways and are notorious in Dazhao and are not accepted by ordinary people.
Jiang Baiyan has been raised by the evil cultivator for so many years, learning evil techniques and practicing evil methods. Not to mention his hands, I am afraid that even his bones are soaked in dirty blood.
The original owner was afraid of Jiang Baiyan and made things difficult for him, begging his parents to send him away every day.
However, the Jiang family massacre a few years ago has not been solved, and the forces behind the scenes are all-powerful. If Jiang Baiyan wants to take revenge, he must rely on Shi Jingcheng and Zhen'e Division for help.
Therefore, Jiang Baiyan found the original owner and took the initiative to propose an evil magic -
Blood Gu.
When the two of them took the blood Gu, they signed a contract. Jiang Baiyan had to drink the original owner's blood every half a month, otherwise he would be in excruciating pain until his tendons and veins are broken and
he dies in a miserable state. Bound tightly by such an invisible shackle, it was impossible for him to attack the original owner.
Because he grew up in pain, Jiang Baiyan was never merciful even to himself.
Shi Dai felt that he was a ruthless person.
That day, she was flipping through "Records of Common People" on the bed, and soon found that something was wrong.
The plot in the book stopped halfway through, and there was no follow-up. It stayed on the way of the original owner subduing the evil spirit. There was no mention of the destruction of the world or any disaster.
"I tried my best."
Ali covered his face with his front paws and sobbed, "I am only the way of heaven in a small world. Above me, there is the heaven that governs the three thousand worlds. Forcibly changing time and space is not tolerated by heaven. I have revealed so much to you, which is a taboo. Even if I write one more word, I will be struck into powder by the thunder."
Shi Dai: ...
In other words, although she knew that there would be a world-destroying disaster in a few months, she had no idea about the cause and effect, and could only unravel the truth by herself.
What is the difference between this and "It is known that Xiao Ming has seven yuan and spent two yuan, how to find the mass of the sun?"
Not only Shi Dai was worried, but Ali was also worried.
一, also worried about the bumpy road ahead, and secondly, the soul from another world that was summoned seemed a little strange.
When Shi Dai came here, the original owner happened to be unconscious due to injuries from catching monsters. She used the excuse that she fell and her brain was confused and barely fooled everyone in the Shi Mansion.
The memories of the original owner will gradually merge with her day by day. Because it is reincarnation, even if the sorcerer casts a spell to spy, he will not find that the soul in her body has changed its core. Everything is fine, but...
whoever is a good person can make a big fuss in his own mansion as soon as he crosses over!
There are many demons and ghosts in Dazhao. Shi Dai was injured and recuperated at home. Occasionally, she would encounter a few harmless little demons.
So, she began to try all kinds of magical things.
For example, she asked the snow demon to freeze popsicles and asked the house ghost to tidy up her bedroom.
In the end, she even discussed with her mother who was a businessman the feasibility of using zombies to deliver goods.
In Qimen, the corpse driver can control zombies.
In the hands of the corpse driver, the zombies are suppressed by the corpse gas and will not cause pollution and damage to the goods. The advantage is that they are agile
. been cultivated successfully, it will walk like the wind and ride away.
There is no means of transportation in Dazhao that can travel thousands of miles a day. People travel by foot and horse, which is time-consuming and laborious.
In contrast, zombies can reach the destination in less than half an hour by just jumping. Zhen'e Si to find a corpse driver that day.
Ali was shocked by this.
It thought about it carefully. Before Shi Dai crossed over, she grew up in an orphanage and often worked in multiple jobs. It was understandable that she was obsessed with making money, but...
Don't zombies still have their dignity? !
What do you think?
